I had been seriously considering RFK Jr, until he chose his running mate. It made me scratch my head because it was a choice that was nearly the opposite of how he seemed to be positioning himself.
The only way I can make sense of this is that he knew he would not be elected and decided to make sure Biden could not be re-elected. In the same way that never-Trumpers try to take down DJT, he is doing what he can to take the Biden admin down.
So what does he get out of this? I think it is Sec'y HHS in a Trump admin. Then he will be able to focus on his top priority, and has been for a long time: taking down big pharma.
As I just posted: Alex Jones predicted some months ago that IF RFK Jr. tacks hard left, then he is on a Kamikaze mission to destroy the Dems and their Deep State for killing his father and brother - looks like Jones is right again! FOR MORE + MEMES:
POLITICALsteria: Best RFK Jr Memes (Going Full Kamikaze!)
The Media, Big Tech & Hollywood are ready. The RFK Jr sex diary (37 affairs in 2001 alone...), with friends like these (be careful!), at least he talks good on vaccines and more RFK Jr. memes!
What indication has there ever been that Trump acknowledges the problems with Big Pharma or their products, which he is STILL touting (and doubled down this month) Warp Speed and his abominable handling of the "pandemic" as his shining accomplishment? Trump still seems to think he's a hero for rolling out this poison and for every other destructive policy he pushed in 2020. I could see assuming that if he said nothing about it, but he's doing the opposite.
Follow the money. I think he was bought by Pfizer. He got a nice $1M donation to his inauguration, then appointed Pfizer lobbyists to head public health (look up Alex Azar if you really want to gag), he was personally invested $20-60M in Pfizer at that time, and then he awarded presidential commendations to Fauci, Birx and the rest of the criminal bureaucrats on his last day in office. When asked about that by Megyn Kelly last summer, he feigned amnesia. And lest we think this is an isolated incident, he received $500K from Monsanto and then cut regulations for GMO foods. Standard politician pay-for-play. He didn't drain the swamp because he's one of them. That should have been obvious as well, from his appointments of Bill Barr and the rest of the well known swamp creatures he put into positions of power.
There no good way out of this mess. Even the campaign now on-going 'to save America' is highly compromised, highly flawed. But it is as 'a plan' better than concentration camps, mass liquidations outright and total unbridled lawlessness.
Looking around, there is no plan anywhere to restore America to organic constitutions, to have a compliant constitutional law order/law codes. To just begin to bring such stuff up and as regards most people, they will look at such a one as if he just flew out of the cuckoo clock at the stroke of twelve.
Well stated. Not even people who 'know' stuff know how bad things truly are. Given this, I recently was gratified to hear Dr. David Martin to so forcibly hold forth and not only on the Covid Terrorism topic. Martin also recognizes that the present time a is threat existential across the spectrum of all human endeavor.
Is there anymore a 'safe and sound' place of reside given the technological threats hanging over us like a sword ready to descend and destroy at the flick of a kill switch?
That’s why we must humble ourselves and pray and repent of our sins; they are so many. We are freezing in the water with no help in sight (what a great analogy, btw. This is no time to be talking about hot to improve the ship’s design and construction! It’s a little late for that.) The only thing that will save us is an act of God. The only thing that will bring that about is true repentance. There will be consequences no matter which way we choose. But there would be hope.
I read American Thinker article and I think the main point is valid, but I think there are also many other motive and reasons, especially at the one percent and above level.
I also think the civil war going on in the United States. I think that we are also under attack from foreign powers, largely for reasons of the making by the corrupt ruler class. I also think that the White Hats are not genuinely white. And maybe more Grey Hats than White.
A buddy of mine has often commented that men like Gates, Soros and Schwab are just bitter old men who want to kill as many people as they can because they know that they are soon going to die. They just want to take as many as they can with them. Of course, these are not the 1%.
This particular rational strikes me as being somewhat shallow ... and possibly a grasping at straws in trying to make sense out of that which cannot be rendered sensible to understanding by all normal mental inclination.
People like Gates, Soros, Schwab actually believe in their agendas (depopulation, transhumanism, eugenics and so only). To them is a religion to achieve some good. And the 'good' to be obtained justifies the idea of the end justifying the means. These people, for whatever justification, believe that 'they' occupy the high ground ... and their material wealth and power seconds the motion.
Then there are the Useful Idiots. These poor people actually believe that they too occupy the high ground because someone told them so, sold them a seemingly believable bill of goods. The Useful idiots are controllable enablers for the elites due to deficits in their education and/or access to real facts.
The above can be even smart people in many ways, excepting that they are very flawed.
Gates, Soros, Schwab and people like them usually become bitter only once they hit a speed bump and are made impoverished and/or imprisoned for their criminal actions.
The difference between Good and Evil is the difference between Truth and Lies, between Law and Lawlessness.
I think you make a good stab at it. In the end it is about power and that is there definition of "good". They are all narcissistic personalities and even narcissists know that their 'good' is not good for anyone else. Here is to making them bitter!
An article titled "some men want" underneath another piece titled "three ways" deserves this link that I first thought of when I saw the C&C email this morning:
I think this way too. But the powers in the West know that public support has largely collapsed for Woke Marxism. And it is know that rule without popular support is usually a fatal weakness. And there is a kind of roll back going on.
Things will not work out like I want them to. But totally wacky Woke insane cannot last forever because eventual the power flows to strength. And that whether it is power in the world or within a country. Weakness long term never triumphs, only strength.
I do not really blame Trump for OWS. Many other good people--including good scientists, such as the Great Barrington Declaration authors--were in favor of it. In fact, I heard Jay Bhattacharya make the ridiculous statement that he got COVID but it was a mild case because of the shot. I get very upset with Trump when he still touts the shot, but I don't believe he would ever have mandated it. And that's the most important thing in my mind. If everyone had been free to make the choice of getting vaxxed or not, many people would have chosen not to get it. So Trump was in favor of freedom of choice, and that's more important to me than having been in favor of the shot in the first place.
Finally a sane comment on this. Beyond even that, President Trump played a bad hand as well as he could, and the Deep State wanted to lock us down for good but we had their dastardly plans forced. If you think things were bad, it's nothing compared to what their plan for us was...
I follow Trump closely. The only jab comment I know anything about is when he reacted to what Biden said in the SOTU speech. He was calling Biden out for lying, not pushing the vaccine. Open minded people can see that clearly.
TDS is truly blinding. And how sad you want to vomit on President Trump.
I think that level of hatred may cause serious internal issues for you.
I do get the impression that Trump has a very hard time acknowledging mistakes, and he may still be partially blind to just how bad the jab actually is, because to admit it was bad would make OWS bad, and he's publicly bragged about how good it was and taken the credit for it. People are complicated, and all of us have flaws and errors of some kind. I just pray that he can be humble enough to admit his mistakes, even if only privately.
Sweet Jesus! I don’t get those of you who just want an apology. The left would try to beat him to death with it, but Lord knows, he hasn’t suffered nearly enough yet, so he just needs to show weakness and take the defeat.
Well, not sure if you meant it that way, but I don't care about a personal apology to me or anyone else (I share the attitude some others posted, of just because he encouraged it is not the same thing as forcing people to take it). I'm just looking from outside and thinking "how do I know that he understood his mistake and won't make a similar mistake in future?".
DJT also bragged about taking Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin. So ....was he really a shill for big pharma? Both generics, both highly controversial after he took them.
Hah - *anything* Trump said or did immediately became "highly controversial" unless it was in line with what the media were pushing. I certainly don't think he was a shill, though I think he was misled by his advisors (and not sure if he's prepared to admit that, though I hope he is).
Sarahanne25- No trump supporter is blind to trumps OWS and patting himself on the back for it. It makes most of us want to vomit. Who would you prefer we get behind? If RFK was an option to anyone he just blew that. So, what good does it do to keep bashing Trump or supporters? Best case scenario….Trump gets RFK into HHS like Neil Kellen suggested and then gets the hell out of the way so RFK jr can take down big Harma and put them all in prison!
I’ve decided. Biden has to be stopped. We will not survive 4 more Biden years so I will be voting for Trump. It has to stop somewhere. We don’t have much time. Bring it on.
You’re wrong when you don’t think people aren’t oblivious to his faults. Why do you think DeSantis had to drop out? Desantis was not only the better candidate, he is a better man.
I’m holding my nose and voting for Trump this upcoming election knowing he will continue to grow the swamp.
I live in Florida. DeSantis is a great governor but lots of reasons why he dropped out. He is owned by rinos on the national stage as proven by his statements and backtracking the next day (s). He looked visibly uncomfortable the whole time. Look up his donors. Plus there’s a bunch of issues in Florida he is either ignoring or purposely not dealing with. Statewide major insurance issues, the disabled community that doesn’t get state services and has a 25,000 person waitlist to even get any help just to name a couple. But he has a great track record with so many other issues too…as governor. He should’ve waited until after Trump to move in for the kill. It’s too bad he jumped the gun.
Doesn’t matter really at this point. You can have your “favorite” just as much as the next person. No candidate is without flaws or blind sides. It’s ok to hold your nose and vote for Trump. The vaxx issue is the monkey on his back that hopefully someday he will have to answer for.
As much as you think supporters are blind to his faults - the same could be said to those who took the vax just because he said to. Shame on anyone who makes a decision just because Trump or another politician or celebrity or athlete says to. Poor decision makers if that’s what sways a person to inject something into their body, really.
If anyone is owned by rinos it’s Trump. Trump started the transgender taking over women’s competitions years ago. Trump appointees are swamp creatures or rinos. Yes, Trump did some good things, but he’s a shallow person that’s great at manipulating others by talking himself up.
Desantis probably saw Trump for what he is -a democrat and not so great guy.
That is the Hobson's Choice, isn't it? We've been voting "lesser of two evils" for so long that two or three terrible choices is all that remain. I had hopes for DeSantis, but apparently, we haven't gone far enough down this rabbit hole for enough people to see that he was the best candidate we've had in decades. So here we are. Screwed no matter what. Hang on folks, the next few years are gonna be rough!
APPLY for Project 2025 and get in the vipers' nest to help clean it out. I know of NO OTHER grassroots option and action to resist the Progressive-Commie Gvt warring against us
I've been so publicly conservative for so long now, that they probably wouldn't let me anywhere near them, even if I could stomach being around that level of stupid or becoming good at lying. But you do have a point, that we need to take this on from the bottom up - local, city, county and state politics is what counts, from school boards to city councils on up.
I've probably asked for evidence of anything RD has DONE to prove he's a RINO dozens of times, but there's never any offered. He keeps accomplishing everything that Republicans and conservatives SAY they want in FL, but I guess y'all just don't want it badly enough yet.
I get a kick out of folks who think DeSantis is a puppet for the establishment or a bitch-boy for Trump.
He was a lowly congressman, who was governor for only one year before he stood up against POTUS, the media, a terrified/cowardly public and the establishment on Covid. Pressure breaks pipes. He didn't crack...Trump did.
He's got some pretty big cojones for being a so called lightweight.
People blather on and on about what various people "really are". I keep watching DeSantis' actions and comparing what he says he believes to what he does as Governor. He's pretty amazingly consistent and he has done one great thing after another. If he's a RINO, he's a very odd one. Actions always speak louder than words, and DS's words match his actions better than any politician I know of. I sure wish he were the Governor of Commiefornia where I live!
Unfortunately, the various factions are running the game ... and not us. Rule is always top down. Man is factional. The first DJT term may well have been beta testing and probing the front lines for weakness. It may well have been a set-up for 2024. At present, getting back to a moral law order and unalienable Rights practice would take an outright act of God.
I saw an absolutely square cloud yesterday evening here in Idaho. We are in a war of good vs. evil. Period. God used such flawed humans as his messengers and prophets. Even in his own lineage was David, and we all know what he did. So, we cannot pin our hopes on one man, only God. And who He uses to fulfill His purpose is yet to be seen. All I know is this nation was much better off under Trump than Biden. But the barn door is open and the illegals are streaming in. Biden/Satan has been on a mission to gut this nation of God and have done a bang up job. That is what all these horrible political/executive mandates and decisions are. Has there been even ONE for the good of the citizens of this nation? I would have to say that is a hard no. From the closing of the Keystone pipeline to the jab mandates, Jan 6th, Ukraine and the border and on and on and on goes the list since this shadow government was inaugurated. The plan is in place for 2024, but will the white hats win? Who the hell knows...because the steal is on.
Right. We are in a precarious stage right now; indifference.
I always have to remind myself that this is the default position of mankind. It is so frustrating to see it unfold. It starts with indifference; first in tiny, virtually imperceptible steps and eventually in "imperceptible" giant steps.
First indifference. Then apathy.
Then manacles
"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage"
Man...you hit the nail on the head. I have never seen such ignorant apathy in my life. As long as their FB doesn't go out and they can shop at Wal-Mart, or they can get their next piercing or tat, all is well. But when the trucks stop running and their devices stop working, well, I see dead people. The Walking Dead people.
I was recently thinking that it actually might be a very good thing if FB and all social media were to suddenly get cut off. People just might have to start "thinking" all of a sudden. This is why I don't think the PTBs will ever allow this to happen, because they need to keep brainwashing the susceptibles and they most certainly don't want them thinking for themselves!
Related? A little out there, but hey, we're residents of the cosmos. No getting away from it.
The star Betelgeuse, part of the constellation Orion, apparently exploded some 600-ish years ago. Webb telescope only detected a change several years ago. The rest is math I guess. Above my pay grade. Anyway, the star is so far away, some 500+ light years, that the full brunt of "shock" wave of energy released hasn't reached us yet. How much energy? I can't say. The star is/was nearly 900x the size of our sun. Big one. The somewhat-dissipated-due-to-distance "shock" wave of energy is due to arrive here shortly. What kind of energy? I can't say. But surely said wave will shift something on our planet. What? I can't say. But if you've ever felt the energy of a conversation shift, or felt the energy of a room when you walk into it, them's small energies. I 'spect this'll be a wee bit diffrnt.
Is everything in Divine order? Of course! What that is, yet again I am sadly not informed enough to say. But could this cosmic event be tied to this iteration of a Tytler cycle? Just asking the question. I suspect none but God has full information to answer. Plus I am unaware if Mr. Tytler, keen observer earthling, ever factored in our cosmic residency as some type of influence in his cyclical collapses. Food for thought - and all kinds o' speculation. Sure is an interestin' time to be alive on planet earth. 🤔
I asked my ultra leftist, TDS afflicted brother to give me a list of 5 horrible things Trump did while President, and also a list of 5 great things Biden has done as President. No answer from him, he wouldn't and couldn't go there.
Nice...most people never call those people out. I am sure if we started the crickets would be even louder. I saw a smidge of the news last night at a friend's house about Obama and Clinton campaigning for the insect infesting the oval office. Made me so sick. I do not know how people can have network TV. This reminds me of the jab...everyone is doing it and the big dogs are saying to do it. Guess what? I ain't falling for that.
Very much agree. And I see, as Childers has mentioned, a very noticeable move towards God in the last year or so. So I am hopeful about that. God will work through us, not for us. He is turning hearts, and now it's up to us to deliver on his promise.
This is all true. January 6th is pure invention aided and abetted by the FBI and the Party of Insurrectional Radicals. The Ukraine is just part, I repeat part, of a 30 year policy objective against an independent sovereign Russian state. One could go on. And it is all pure Evil. Wars against the countries of the world. A war against the people of the once United States. Many levels here ... and deception here reigns as king.
What is the simple straight truth is that the Wicked Ones war insurrectional against God and anyone who believes in God, in our Lord Jesus.
Read "Conjuring Hitler" by Guido Giacona Preparata. Russia was under Imperial rule by world's elites way before even WWI. They were also the ultimate sacrificers of life in WWII as 20 million perished fighting. Without them, UK and USA would not have ever done a victory dance.
Oh Good God you must be joking.....President Trump is a billionaire who can't be bought. To read this sort of crap after all this time is mind numbing...
He is not "immune" to people who kiss the ring, obviously. The money trail is verifiable. Find another reason someone would hire the fox to guard the henhouse; something I could have told you was unwise when I was age 5. With the disastrous results we saw in 2020.
Sweet Mana. I would love to see all you detractors leading better than Trump did with every demon on the hill throwing crap at him from the moment he said he was running for President. You nor would your fellow detractors wouldn’t last one minute in his shoes.
I was born and will die, a WOMAN.
But you and all these feminized men and hysterical TDS women would have had a hormonal-induced ‘hissy fit’ in the first minute of being attacked as he was and still is.
Not one of you even thinks about the fact that he turned the response over to Pence and that back-stabbed was IN CHARGE of the covid response team. PENCE. And PENCE was a RAT, just like Fauci and Birx.
These were unforced errors. I don't know anyone for whom a history of making terrible choices is a plus on a resume for leadership. He made these choices right from the start, after receiving $$$$ for his inauguration, he continued to reward these abominable people, and he's very recently doubled down on his support for them. No one made him do that. He could have remained quiet on the mass poisoning of billions of people, but instead, he's kept throwing his support behind the worst crimes against humanity in world history, with more far reaching consequences than the Holocaust. No matter what is "thrown at you", if you support evil, then you are not fit for leadership. Period. No more excuses. For the record, I do object to the lawfare crap being thrown at him, but that does not excuse his behavior.
What Trump has had to endure would kill an ordinary man if he didn't first give up and retire from the field of battle. He's made a lot of mistakes but name me ONE real life "hero" who hasn't. You can start with Jacob, Samson and David. Jesus doesn't count.
hopefully lessons learned, remember he's not a lifetime beaurocrat. most of those ppl turned on him and deceived him. normal ppl do not dream up how to take advantage of others and backstab...but seems to be all any govt entity can do....hire corruptable ppl who'll sell their soul cheap.
Is being easily deceived and not listening to independent scientists and doctors a sign of a good leader? Is not investigating the backgrounds and swamp history of the people you are hiring to "drain the swamp" a trait that good leaders should possess? Being unprepared for the job is not a plus on any resume that I know of.
Agreed, Ryan. I just have a hard time thinking Trump doesn't know anything about the carnage and havoc the "safe and effective" sacred miracle elixir is wreaking on the population. It would be best for him to shut his mouth. He could issue an apology, but something tells me that will never happen. I think the deep state played him like a fiddle with their "final solution," I mean "safe and effective" solution. They appealed to his ego and he ate it up. He probably realizes it was wrong, but continues to double down. I think his ex-wife fell down the stairs and died a couple years ago. Who's to say she wasn't a victim of the sacred miracle elixir?
The best apology would be for DJT to win the presidency and then appoint RFK who knows where all the bodies are to clean the mess up.
(I am currently jaded enough to think that we the people will never see a satisfactory outcome of justice with regard to Covid Terrorism. Maybe just some patching it all over.)
I do think DJT needs to be very strategic in what he says so that he can appeal to the many people who voted for Biden previously but who are dissatisfied with Biden enough to consider him now. I'd love it if he could rub their noses in all the lying and deception, but that may not be a good strategy to convince those who have been against him. He has clearly dialed back a lot of his brashness, and that's a good thing for electioneering. When he gets back in the Oval Office, he can then let loose on it all.
I always remember that while Trump had long been a NY society gadfly and welcome in Democrat power circles, he did see the light and wanted to "drain the swamp". He was a newcomer to the dirty political inner workings of the power elite, despite having been among them socially. He went into office not knowing fully who all the bad players were. Fauci, for example. He had been in his position for decades, and in the beginning Trump had no reason to fire him immediately. He just didn't know who he could trust and who he couldn't trust. I read Scott Atlas' book and while Trump listened to this one man, he had a lot of others in supposedly reliable positions of scientific power that he wasn't in a position to immediately dismiss. I don't think any of us would take the word of ONE person against multitudes of others at the beginning of something like covid. None of us started researching covid knowing the extent of it. How could we? And how could Trump? What is now clear is that they lied to him and deceived him and hid things from him even though as President he should have been privy to all information. But he knows NOW. That's the important thing.
Yes CMCM, I pretty much said the same thing here yesterday about being strategic. I sure hope we're right about that. I've never been enthusiastic about any candidate ( always the least crappy one) but here we are again. And I truly think he loves this country and wants to help unlike the commie dems!
I heard Trump is pedaling Bibles now and he’s telling everyone it’s his favorite book - he reads it “ALL the time”. Apparently Trump’s Bible costs $59.99. Now admittedly, I heard this on a Canadian main stream media news radio station, so I recite this with a healthy dose of skepticism as to its veracity. I keep thinking about the Handmaid’s Tale and wondering if Margaret Lawrence was warning us (or telling us- she seems to be pretty cozy with WEF ideology these days) about what is in store for us. I look around and imagine who is going to be in each part- I think it’s safe to say that due to my age and my vocal disagreement with current politicians and health strategies - I will be one of the old ladies shoveling radioactive waste around!
Trump is only promoting it, along with a lot of other people. This particular Bible is Lee Greenwood's doing. The corporate media is bending over backwards trying to tie it to Trump.
Ah, that sounds just like what the media would do. Though I'm still curious of the details.... searching up the stories and the actual site, it's apparently a fancy bible containing: The Bible, plus "Handwritten chorus to “God Bless The USA” by Lee Greenwood, United States Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and The Pledge of Allegiance". Possibly a bit sacrilegious to some... but also very traditionally conservative American.
Though I can't help laughing at the claims of "King James translation" combined with "easy to read"... bit of an oxymoron there! (But, once again, VERY "traditional conservative".)
I purchased the said Bible for my kids as a family Bible a couple years ago. Lee Greenwood had a devil of a time (sorry, couldn't help myself) getting the book printed. So long were the delays that they offered refunds if people were tired of waiting.
Like you, I'm not a King James guy, NKJ is fine though.
I mean, what kind of binding and printing are those Bibles he's selling? A good leatherbound bible could easily go for $100, but if it's a cheap softcover one then it's a rip off... it's all in the details. (At I guess, I would have thought Trump would be at the 'luxury' end of the spectrum, but who knows.)
(Edit: I'm also curious what translation he's selling. A source with details would be nice.)
Check out Scott Altas MD. (neither party affiliated). Atlas was selected by President Donald Trump in August 2020 to serve as an advisor on the White House Coronavirus Task Force. He gave Trump all the info he needed to NOT mandate masks or shut the country down. But Trump bent the knee to the Fauci agenda.
His book:
A Plague Upon Our House: My Fight at the Trump White House to Stop COVID from Destroying America – December 7, 2021
Candace Owens asked trump point blank about the vax carnage shown in VAERS. He denied it and repeated his "beautiful vaccine has saved millions of lives".
Trump would be wise to pretend along with the DeepStaters and their media that mRNA is better than sliced bread and safer than a tic tac while destroying it all from behind the scenes; if he goes openly anti-VAXX it only makes the job harder, targets himself, and lets our enemies meet him on the field of battle--better to run cover and destroy both Pharma and Security-Spy-State by attacking their infrastructure less boldly.
Yes. Because when Trump said it was good, the RATS were NEVER going to use it. As soon as Biden took office, it was wonderful. Pick you battles wisely. (I can’t believe you and I are in agreement)
To YOUR astute point, Trump being anti-Vaxx in 2020 would have destroyed him, the Commies can change on a dime (ours, NOT their own) and Menshevik-media covers for them and it's as if they Always had that same position...Pharma-Military immediately set Biden-Harris on course had they even not been? Likely their defiance of taking a Trump Vaxx was faked as they knew the game plan and were excited at all the Authoritarian Opportunities it would offer and the $$$ involved for their donors and supporters as well as the culling qualities. Had they NOT stolen the election, they'd have had to become anti-vaxxxers OR given Trump and Warpy speed credit--both terrible options to Leftist Frauds.
High-five! welcome to finally being right! feels extraordinary, no?
Certainly we're not at odds much are we? even so, sit down 3 Christian Conservatives and you'd have 3 instant at-odds denominations after 20 minutes. Not sure how the Commie-Prog-Libs keep their coalition so very uniform...til the Jews and Harmus attackers got it stirred up anyway.
Don’t miss this from Bongino. It’s what keeps me up. We have to deliver Trump the electoral vote# needed to win. Giving the House Speakership to Hakeem J. would be devastating.
It could happen due to House Republicans' decisions to retire before the election. If their seats go unfilled, the Dems get to pick the speaker since they'd have the majority. This, according to Roger Stone who wrote about it in his Substack twice this week.
Pretty sure that is going to happen. Then the economy tanks, under Dem control. We need a complete rebound and that just may be what does it. The final mail in there coffin, I hope.
He should shut up about it. While "Warp Speed", (to develop a vaccine and establish a logistics structure) in and of itself, might be a decent accomplishment, everything after it was awful. No real testing of vaccine safety?
Unbelievably stupid and risky. Cheerleader Pence as the head of the task force? Huge joke. Not canning Fauci because Jared told him it would hurt his reelection? Really poor leadership and judgment.
remember the mRNA were ready and developed b4 covid....this has been planned for years...just waiting for the flu to take hold enough to create a plandemic and then force the fake vaxxines. trump signed on with moderna when there were NO deaths or cases of covid, just a handful.
This isn’t directed at you but in general about Trump and the Covid vax. I never took the vax and will never take any. However, I am absolutely surrounded by conservatives who were desperate back in late 2020/early 2021 to get the vaccine and, as soon as it came out, they did. I only personally know a handful who had the discernment to not take it. So the clamoring for the vax and Trump’s warp speed as far as 70% of the country thought, was a success. There have been a few “died suddenlies” I know of but, unless one is looking for the whys, it is not readily apparent. I live in a red state but apparently the hot lots were not well distributed here. It should never have been mandated but Trump was not the one who did that. He did satisfy the majority by getting the vaccine to them when they clamored for them. Heck, there were churches here with drive through vax clinics set up in their parking lots. We who chose otherwise were few and far between the crowd who were desperate to get them.
He won't make confession to us and really it's most prudent to just allow others do it for him by dismantling Pharmya and the Security State Nazi Leadership and structures; him being overtly vocal and telegraphing anything at all is counterproductive for ACTUALLY demolishing the system; feign ProVaxx, and pro FBI, and Support of Ukraine's leader and then smash them to pieces, do the same with everything--he can maintain that he's just listening to experts as he sics the dogs on the system and implements reforms. Media will flip out that he's allowing it but he takes no direct hits over it.
Weird that people still think he's playing some sort of 4D chess, despite his track record. Your theory might be plausible if he were not continuing to tout the clott shotts as the best thing ever. Being quietly neutral would have been a better tactic if that were the case.
yes, a neutral response and some minor oblique mention of recent data and studies would be all we'd need..the crowing about how awesome it all is, a bit much
It's more horrifying at this point than being a Holocaust denier. This is bigger and more far reaching in terms of massive destruction of human lives and health.
Warp speed was the best thing for us. Ever think that may not mean the shots? He always said you have a choice. We may never know what has been going on but we also may not know what we were saved from happening. The world is a messed up place but there are signs of improvement.
It was clearly NOT "the best thing for us". And he's made very clear that he means the shots, many times. He said AFTER he was out of office that he "wouldn't have" forced the shots, but he allowed lockdowns & the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor & middle class to billionaires ever, putting people out of jobs, schools, businesses and doctor's offices. The suppression of known early treatments for that fraudulently obtained EUA, murdering millions worldwide in just the first year, before we really saw excess deaths on the rise in 2021 and to this day. That's not a success in my mind, unless you're with the WEF and want to reduce population through iatrogenocide. And really, the idea that he didn't force the shots is lame, since he didn't have the opportunity - the shots had only just started to roll out at the end of his term, and even Biden didn't mandate anything for 6 months after he took office. Given the profligate liar that Trump is, I don't believe a word he says.
I do understand where you are coming from. You just said they just started rolling out at the end of his term, it was all under Biden. Trump didn’t fire my husband or force my loved ones to get it. Some died and some have cancer and other issues. I am Not convinced they didn’t trade them out. For example at the beginning, they were trying to build new vehicles to haul them to keep them at a very low temperature. Whatever happened with that? Because that never came to be.
I find it alarming you jump to I must be wef. Seriously WTH 😳
Re-read what I wrote. I did not say that. I assume you aren't, which is why something that's causing so much death and destruction should be objectionable to you. Trump didn't do those things because he never had the chance. He did everything the frauds Fauci & Birx directed him to do, as did Biden, so we can only assume what "might have" happened, had he had the chance. We'll never know and he'll never admit he was wrong - that much we DO know. Which means he's learned nothing and would do it again.
You have TDS. You totally and completely hate the man and are incapable of treating him fairly. We get it.
You must take great comfort in the legal hell he’s being put through and pray intensely that he’ll be destroyed one way or another. I don’t think you’re a sweet mama. I think you’re a sick mama.
Interesting, that the only comments you make here are just pure hatred against Trump.
Again, "Willing Spirit" but not much thinking. Someone with TDS would not have voted for him twice, as I did. Lesser of two evils and all that...but then I did a little digging and realized what we are up against with him, especially after he's been INSISTING for 3 years that he "did everything perfectly" and "saved 100 million lives" with Warp Speed, a very well proven lie. You just keep name calling without addressing or refuting a single fact. Ad hominem attacks are evidence that you have no logical response.
I get your points but don’t agree with the “he allowed lockdowns.” He really didn’t have the power to allow or enforce or disallow. What could he have done to prevent the blue state or RINO red state lockdowns? I just don’t see how he could have done anything about them either way. If you have information showing a mechanism for him to prevent or force state lockdowns, please share it with me, because I am not aware of any.
When RD opened FL after 28 days, Trump threatened to pull federal funding from FL. Trump pushed the lockdowns for quite some time, and even insisted in a press conference that he had the power to do that. And he may not have had it directly, but as we saw with Biden when he spitefully pulled resources from FL for their monoclonal antibody centers, presidents hold the purse strings on resources they've received from the taxpayers in those states. Because RD was so smart about managing the state of FL, he was able to work around these fools because the state is not broke.
Yes I remember that and he went too far. But not as far as he could’ve and not as far as Biden. He also railed against Kemp in Georgia who opened earlier. But he didn’t do anything against South Dakota and I don’t recall sanctions against Georgia. Definitely not good decisions on his part to threaten Florida. I wonder why he changed so much from the insistence on opening before Easter to that more extreme reaction.
Good question. And he didn't have an opportunity to go as far as Biden. We can all speculate on what he would or wouldn't have done as far as mandates, but the fact is that the rollout of the toxic jabs was only just getting started at the end of his term, and even Biden didn't push it that far for the first 6 months of his occupancy.
Good Lord! Please show us where you have seen him touting the jab! And not that comment he made about Biden lying in the SOTU that got all twisted by you haters.
Don’t lie! I watch most of his rally speeches. He is not talking about the vaccines!
It seems like we are all armchair quarterbacks. Personally, I would love all criticism stopped about the OWS and other bs so we can focus on the future!!! One thing I think would be beneficial would be start talking about who would hold what cabinet positions… maybe it we get a loud enough voice in it, President Trump will listen to We the People. We have seen the good, bad and the ugly… and there is a lot of ugly. I think RFK Jr going after pharma is a perfect example! I would love to see Candace Owens on his cabinet too! Let’s make our voice count instead of complaining!!
I disagree with the author of the Substack post that Kennedy dealt himself a death blow by this. He never really had much support from Trump voters. Who he does have a lot of support from are leftleft-leaning millennials and independents. I think it's very likely he shored up his support with that massive group. I think this may turn out to be a very strategically smart move. And I couldn't agree more about the vax issue. Trump and RFK don't really agree on very much, and although I prefer Trump to Biden, Trump doesn't care at all about the issues that are most important to me (chronic disease, big Pharma capture of government and media, regenerative agriculture, environmental pollution, etc.).
Nope, I don't care one iota about his past. A person with an unsavory personal past can still be a good leader and do the right things for the people. And a person who is pristine, perfect and with a monk-like past can be a horrendous, ineffective leader. Neither Jesus nor Mother Teresa is running for President. Nothing I've read in the Bible says that God chose only perfect, flawless, sinless people to do important things.
Maybe if his wife hadn't committed suicide after being married to the bastard. I've stood within 3 feet of him back when he was probably writing this diary. He is lecherous and arrogant, like the rest of his family.
If he can’t control his *sexual* appetites, obviously he can’t control any of them. Except he can and he does, as evidenced by his billion dollar empire. You don’t get to where he is by being undisciplined. You could say he was undisciplined about a character matter, and you would have a valid point. But he is generous - with his time, his money, his resources. He sees individual people and he cares about their plight. In a world where our “leaders” don’t care about us at all anymore, it’s a breath of fresh air to have someone care so loudly, so in-your-face to the opposition that wants to destroy us.
Everyone has their flaw(s) (some of us have more than one and some of those are pretty egregious) but if you look at the overall picture of a person’s life, rather than focusing on only specific areas, it gives you a better idea of the total picture of the person. When I (and many others) look at Trump, we can see the ugliness in certain aspects of the painting of his life. But if we stand back and take in the whole picture, we can see a masterpiece.
Have to add this (since I can’t edit in the app on my phone) that I too thought this was a trash Trump thread. I read the beginning several times before I made my comment and then finished the remainder of the thread only to discover I wasn’t the only one confused! Regardless, whether we’re discussing Trump, or Brand, or RFK, Jr., the entire picture gives a better sense of the measure of the person.
Lots of people do that - men and women. Particularly Boomers - you know it was all sex, drugs and rock and roll for our generation. I suspect almost all of the people who might care about this wouldn't be voting for him anyway.
My question in return would be, "is he still doing it?" (As far as I know, the answer is "no" - from what I've seen of Melania, he probably doesn't dare...!)
I can certainly forgive people for their past if they've changed. It's more difficult to overlook ongoing flaws, though.
Melania? That's Trump's wife. RFK Jr's wife is Cheryl. I have no idea if he is being true to her but I hope he is. I suspect if he weren't we'd know it by now. Hence the reason why the Biden crew had to dredge up some shade from 25 years ago.
Wait, this is the "bash RFK" thread rather than the "bash Trump" thread? I'm so used to the "he slept with tons of women" thing being pointed at Trump... but I'd hold the same position regarding either man.
RFK is very open about being in 12-step recovery from drug and sex addiction and has been clean for many years. Russell Brand is as well. I think of having a President that understands sex and drug addiction and has overcome it (12 step programs are based on dedicating your life to God-a spiritual but not religious act). There is so so much addiction in our country and I would love to see leaders who understood real solutions to the crisis.
Not exactly. I have listened to him speak on a few of these topics. These days, you need to actually listen to people speak, not take what others say about them as gospel.
I still get people telling me that Trump told the public to "inject bleach". I ask them to find a quote of him saying that, but they cannot.
And then they hate ME for interfering with the weird masturbatory pleasure they get from believing the TV and hating Trump.
Then I tell them that the legitimate reason to hate Trump is his support for the toxic vaxx, and they hate me even more because they took and promoted the vaxx themselves.
wow! very well said. the bleach comment came from chlorine dioxide, which I'm researching online how to have it in my home kit for health. It's a very simple blood cleanser type homeopathy....but you'll be wasting your breath trying to tell anyone about it. Also...'the weird masturbatory pleasure' you mention is how I view the derranged pedo's when they witness utter destruction: obama, gates, fauxci, francis collins, trudeau, pelosi (j6) etc... they have no regard for human emotion b/c they are demons.
Also his mention of light as a disinfectant - maybe sunlight/vitamin D, but they are also using a blue light inserted into the nostrils before surgeries at the University of British Columbia to kill bacteria that cause super bug infections. This has been going on for years - I often wonder if it may have been able to be used as a standard procedure for patients coming into the hospital to prevent transmission. Certainly the media “warped” very “speedily” anything Trump mentioned with regards to prevention or treatment since they never could get that Emergency Authorization for the injections had that been available.
you use that orally or just topically? what did you use it for? I want for viral --flu covid and even water purification if prepping. still confused if it has to be 2 parts mixed at ingestion to be potent or if bottles like this Animal spray are stable
Safe for use anywhere on or in the body. Nasal spray, eye wash, gargle, cuts, sores, douche, enema. . It's pure ClO2 so do not mix - Use straight. Stable in a cool, dark pantry but it does expire. Not for prepper survival since it expires. Not for water purification. It kills microbes. It's the best and strongest I have found, especially good as a nasal spray.
We've been pretty devote users of Chlorine Dioxide. There's a couple of good channels on Telegram if you have questions. The Universal Antidote Videos Chat and MMS Drinking Buddy. Lots of people like CDS better but we prefer MMS. PureWaterWorld.com is where we've purchased it. Also Jim Humble's book MMS Health Recovery Guidebook is very informative.
I still don't understand why DJT continued pushing the jabs... And now that we have (I was gonna' say "living" ...) dying proof that Big Pharma, its supporters and promoters are not IN THE LEAST interested in the horrendous toll taken... I feel like he, Trump, must come out with an explanation and an apology.
I will vote for him, because I believe he's the best man for the job. I pray for him to be safe, well and WISE, and to be led by prayer and good counsel.
I agree that a sincere apology would serve him well, but I'm afraid he has taken far more money from the criminals at Pfizer than just the $1M for his 2016 inauguration.
Trump looks very corrupt while he keeps lying about the dangerous and worse than ineffective toxxine.
I agree and have listened to him in the past... But I don't like some of the things he says or rather his reasoning e.g. I don't doubt there is a chemical turning the frogs gay as Alex Jones puts it that RFJ said is in the food supply BUT that is NOT why EVERYONE AT ALL LEVELS is pushing transgenderism! RFK is no doubt smart but still seems to miss what is really going on.......
Perhaps, but praying the Rosary beads each day also makes him religious. For Catholics and Orthodox, prayer ropes and beads are for very strong prayer. 🙏✝️🙏
I find it odd that Jesus did not teach His Disciples to pray that way and in fact He commanded them NOT to but you'd have to read your Bible and look for those commands instead of fearing your religion's damnation vs God's or rejection by friends and family. There's a verse about that too. You must be born again.
The Church which is "the Body of Christ" and which decided (pre schism) what to include in the Bible suggest prayer ropes (Orthodox) and beads (Catholic). Simply reading the Bible is not sufficient. Recall the story of the Ethiopian eunuch in the Acts who, when asked if he understood what he was reading in the Bible (book of Isaiah), wondered “How can I, unless someone guides me?” That's where the Church comes in and explains thing to us. Sola Scripture is a very protestant way of thinking. Remember, Christianity is not a buffet where we are free to pick and chose what we believe.
Simply reading the Bible is not sufficient as also congregating with other believers who read the Bible. Follow those who actually follow the Bible and not one man. The Pope is a man made power usurped by disgruntled "Christian" Pharisees who got put down when the Apostles confronted their legalism and works based Salvation. Your lady is a figment of their power grab and coffer buffer. Check Catholic history for yourself. They act of their own accord. They sell salvation. Many men do in the name of Christ.
It is a tenet of Protestant Christianity that scripture *IS* sufficient to salvation, though not sufficient to understand every deep facet of theology. (And as a corollary, that scripture is capable of being sufficiently understood by an ordinary person to reach that 'necessary' level to be saved.)
However, thoughtful Protestants would agree that many things outside the Scripture, including the Church both as a whole and as a local congregation, are helpful in understanding the full depth of scripture, and in supporting believers in the practical application of daily faith.
Things like beads / prayer ropes fall more into that latter, practical category, though I'm inclined to think that the idea of making "stronger" prayers is difficult to align with the teachings of scripture. It seems to me that the stronger prayer is the prayer most in line with the will of God, and little to do with the manner in which it is prayed.
If one is not understanding the Bible, they are either unsaved or deceived by the devil's lies which are abundant in the professing churches. There is instruction (doctrine) from the Lord as to how to come unto the knowledge of the truth for a saved member of the body of Christ (1 Tim. 2:4, kjb) but the devil has the truth hidden:
2 Tim. 2:7 Consider what I (Apostle Paul) say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
The Lord tells us who he sent to us in this dispensation of the grace of God with the gospel of our salvation and doctrine for the Church, the body of Christ by which we are to be edified; that is the Apostle Paul.
If a man is not following Paul as he followed Christ, then he is to be rejected as a teacher.
2 Tim. 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
How can we follow Christ in different ways? That just doesn't make sense. There is Only One Christ. There's only ONE WAY. He says so Himself. He also said you MUST be born again AND He never told the disciples to collect little rocks, pearls, markers and recite repeat many words over and over to Mary. NEVER EVER! In fact Jesus Christ Himself condemned it. Please step out of your fears and into the truth. We do not follow the same....The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it. And they shall say to you, Lo, there! Lo, here! go not away, nor follow after them...Lk 17:22-23
Fyi if you trust in the Lady Mary Fatima whoever they are not Christ. They are leading you away.
Because you didn't try to proseletyze? Because you don't want to hear what the Bible actual says? I thought as a Christian you'd be very interested. Perhaps we follow a different Christ.
lol. You say Jesus says don’t pray rote prayer but then he gave us the Our Father. Which as far as I know all Christian’s pray no matter their particular denomination. Hmmm. How can any kind of prayer be bad? Better reread Jesus’ words and make sure you are not inserting your own for his.
My understanding MAY BE WRONG but I believe Jesus said this is “HOW we should pray” as an example; not that we should pray this exact prayer, or pray it repeatedly in exact form. I think rote prayer is not an honest & personal relationship with God the Father. JMO of course.
Saying that, I love the “Our Father” prayer. Matthew 6:9. It’s my guide to prayer, first giving God the glory and acknowledging His will, not mine, be done. ✝️
You mean Jewish not Roman Catholic so His teachings dont apply to other religions that claim He is Savior/God/Creator? Or others that claim His Name but didn't believe what He claimed, and proved, about Himself?
Jesus spoke the words of the Creator which apply to the universe which he created - with words. God spoke Hebrew. Then the Tower of Babel. Return to the original Bible in Hebrew and that is what Jesus taught. I agree with you.
He was kidnapped and murdered by the Roman Ponius Pilate while he attended a Jewish passover dinner which this year is on April 22, the true anniversary of the murder of the Jew, Jesus.
He is for the most part a practicing Catholic just like his two parents. I can’t help believing that in his heart. he is pro life, even though he claims to be in favor of choice. I attribute that public stance to his lifelong ties to the Democrat party, and to his far left, not very intelligent or funny Hollywood wife.
The Dems Presidential Gala raised a record $25mm last night in NYC. Not enough millions to overcome RFK Jr and Trump. The timing of the Gala infuriated millions of law abiding citizens, since the funeral of the slain NYC Police Officer was earlier in the day. The Dems are losing voters fast. They are running out of “smart” ideas but, have a playbook full of nefarious ideas. Buckle up America!
I know they had some sort of strategy planned with the lawyer Aaron Siri and Del Bigtree. Saw it about a year ago with the Twitter post named “working on a strategy”. Local, local, local can only work so much when those agencies in cahoots with Big Pharma continue to endorse. promote and push the unsafe products and punish the medical professionals who are not agreeing with their plans. Perhaps he will get a chance to do the work he wanted to do under Trump. I don’t know anymore 😄What I do know is that God is in charge and with His grace things will change for the better.
He’s the one who forced the FDA/Pfizer to release the trial data they planned to hide for 75 YEARS.
Having seen it - via Naomi Wolf’s website - it’s clear why they were hiding it. They documented a mass of injury & death. Very clear they knew it would kill & injure on a massive scale.
I know when he made his announcement for his bid for president, he said something very close to, "They've been censoring me for the last 18 years--they can't censor me anymore now that I'm a candidate for president." He was wrong about that unfortunately. However, maybe the most important thing is his message to wake America up? I know he'd make a great addition to a cabinet post under Trump. He also said, he knows essentially who's who. (My words) I took that essentially to mean, he knows the deep state players. It's way past due to clean house and get our country back. Maybe there is a bigger more divine plan at play? 🙏🏻
I want a president who knows the constitution, knows how to question and get to the truth and can’t be fooled. We know definitely that isn’t Trump. He shut down the country, wasn’t smart enough to dig into the data critically, and brought historic fools to rule us (Fauci/Birx). RDS was our BEST option. The uniparty ended that. Best option is now Kennedy for real change. Trump couldn’t get the wall built, JOINED corrupt Pharma to kneel before public health overlords. Kennedy is all we have for a better future. Trump can’t even admit lockdown failures, vaccine injuries, and RDS WAS RIGHT.
With his choice of a VP candidate, Kennedy has messaged that he will be no different than the current admin, except for his disdain of big pharma. And he won't be able to do anything about that as POTUS.
Ppl certainly have very short and non working memories. Didn't get the wall built? Got a mega amt built before CONGRESS shut the funds down. Locked down the country? How so? Florida wasn't locked down. Neither was Georgia. How'd Trump lock it down? He didn't "bring" us Fauci and Birx. He INHERITED them from Obummer. Doesn't know the Constitution? Have you SEEN the EOs He wrote that are still in effect and in fact, have been extended by the current puppet in office? EOs that go against trafficking, corruption in every legal office, etc. You really should broaden your reading material and go back and refresh your memory.
Florida was locked down. The difference between Trump and DeSantis is that DeSantis recognized his decision was wrong and immediately changed course. Trump was just hoping it would all go away. He took the easy way out.
Hope is simply a substitution for strategy when a biz plan or war plan does not allow for change in tactics when the facts on the ground change.
Trump did not lock Florida down. I live here. That was a STATE decision by DeSantis to close the beaches for a short time (and then deny he'd done it later on). Churches never locked down unless they did so on their own. Again, our church never closed down for one day. If the county you live in is liberal enough to have done that.....that's a local decision. But TRUMP never made the states lock down. If there's a sound byte out there that I missed where he ordered states to shut down, please post it. Thanks!
I hear ya. But I did not say that Trump initiated the c19 response in FL. Indeed it was DeSantis.
And that's my point.
I moved to Sarasota from CA in May of 20 because I have children. Floridians will never understand how bad it was in the Clampdown states....and people in Clampdown states will never understand what it was like to be free at that time.
His mistake was allowing the 15 days to be extended another 30. Game over.
It was his decision and his decision alone. He has some responsibility.
I share that assessment for the most part. Only point of information that I find necessary to add is his recognition that his decision was wrong was largely driven by his political ambition and calculation.
From those with access inside his policy office and then campaign I interacted with in 2020-2021 DeSantis calculated that the crowded primary field he saw 2024 would be was empty in the "freedom" lane. By planting his ambition's flag in that otherwise unoccupied lane the other hopefuls to the throne would divide the the rest of GOP voters.
His calculation was that freedom seekers were a large enough bloc of voters to outnumber the divided rest of the field in the other GOP lanes that supported pandemic restrictions and mandates (DeWine, Hogan-like R's who were indistinguishable from the Newsome's, Pritzker's and Cuomo/Hochul's).
His political calculation was largely correct. Aside from the glaring miscalculation that Trump would be removed from the field. Which he still may be. But in that light, wrong and right is often arrived at for different reasons by politicians and their calculations. Whether or not their personal convictions align with their decisions.
Trump was pulling teeth to finish the wall. Remember Congress was thwarting him. But he persevered & build a sizeable portion. Enter stage left…O’Biden & wall building ended. In fact materials already there ready to build more sections were sold pennies on the dollar or left to ruin.
To be fair: I remember commenting to my mom at the time that Trump looked sick about shutting down the country. He said that covid was like a flu and he was sure it would dissipate soon. He knew his great economy would suffer with an economic lockdown. He was mocked. harrassed, defamed constantly. He finally had to give in to the 'experts'..and now that we have no medical autonomy from the WHO treaty, things can only get worse with the next leaked bioweapon, no matter who is President..unless Trump gets us out of it.
i doubt you owned a business during that time. try working to build a business for 25 years and then having a good portion of your hard earned wealth swept up in a GIANT SUCKING SOUND OF WEALTH TRANSFER.
and how in the world did he not know how it would all end....i mean the mask alone.
it is no excuse. he did not respect our freedoms.
it's very dangerous to believe a leader is beyond reproach
exactly! And that's why they also use euphemism to make them feel good about how the words sound rather than the evil represented by the grotesque symbolism used to camoflauge wickedness as empathy. perfect example:
"Gender affirming care"
The other side of the same coin is to label people as "anti" this and "anti" that...and DENIER's, etc. etc.
The libs found it fairly easy to roll out child mutilation - sterilizing children - as “gender-affirming care”. They’re treading a bit more carefully with MAPS - “minor-attracted persons”. But...many in western societies think the mutilation is fine, just as they are accepting medical murder (“MAID”). Will people finally wake the hell up as libs tell them it’s great that a 30-year-old is “dating” their small child?
Well he tried to get places to open up before Easter and got all kinds of grief. I just don’t think he really had the power to do much. And whatever he was for, the blue states would be against. Remember when he said he thought states should lock down, the governors said he couldn’t make them. Then when he wanted to ease up and start reopening, they said they weren’t going to because it wasn’t safe. He had no real enforcement power for whatever he thought should be done on the state level. At least not any he was willing to use, like Biden with Medicare and HHS and federal contractors for the vax mandates.
I share your frustration. Not that he’s blameless but I feel like it was a damned if you do, damned if you don’t kind of scenario 😕 At the time he got so much pushback for wanting to reopen. Maybe he should’ve just plowed ahead and done what he could to force reopening (not sure that would have worked anyway, if the governors simply refused to reopen), but I am not sure that that wouldn’t have backfired either 😕 But the should’ve would’ves don’t really help us now, do they 😕 What’s done is done, unfortunately.
Trump’s a businessman. In business, when you’re confronted by a problem outside your experience, you consult/hire people who are proven/widely considered to be experts. You don’t build your own IT or security systems - you get experts in. Trump was well aware that virology & epidemiology were way outside his experience. Unfortunately, the obvious “expert” to consult was the (filthy) individual who’d been “managing” public health forever. Yes can imagine Fauci telling him “Mr President, follow my expert advice or millions of Americans will DIE”.
Trump’s instincts were right: there must be treatments (there were); the ‘cure’ (lockdown) can’t be worse than the illness. But again, he had “experts” warning darkly of mass fatalities.
He has opposed injection mandates, which is good. He should - of course - admit he was manipulated to get the mRNA to market. And he should admit their toxicity. Given his personality, he probably won’t. That’s clearly a FLAW - but as long as he continues to support bodily autonomy & certainly if he exits the WHO, he deserves support!
Bless your heart. I would love to see how you would have functioned having all that the demons from hell could throw at you, as it was the enter four years of his presidency as well as his entire campaign. lol. You would have cried the first day.
I have come to the conclusion that ALL the TDS ‘entities’ have come out in force today and will continue to come here to speak ill and spew their vitriol against Trump up until he wins and will continue to do so for his entire 4 years (if they don’t JFK him).
Not one of the people on here disparaging Trump could have accomplished what he did under the circumstances he was operating. Not you or any of these other ‘entities’.
“To be fair”…that is what these TDS sufferers will never be able to do. They are lying in claiming Trump is out there bragging and pushing the vaccines.
Where is the evidence for this? He commented on Biden lying in the SOTU. That was not pushing the vaccines!
Trump was pulling teeth to finish the wall. Remember Congress was thwarting him. But he persevered & build a sizeable portion. Enter stage left…O’Biden & wall building ended. In fact materials already there ready to build more sections were sold pennies on the dollar or left to ruin.
All so said by you is right. And yet I throw up my hands into the air. Like ... what does one do with a brain dead population which does not know the difference been constitutional compliant law and a penguin?
If politics is the art of the possible, then as understate ... we are in an impossible situation. And the smart thing for DJT would be to say nothing on C19, but then clean house after a 2024 win. (But don't count on it or hold your breath!)
Why do you assume RFK can get elected? And why do you assume that if by some chance he COULD get elected, his overall strategies wouldn't be mostly aligned with the Democrats, considering he and his family's lifelong dedication to that party and its principles...principles which are no longer what they were many decades ago. He's a declared Independent because he couldn't get any traction within the D party. If they had allowed him to compete against Biden and succeeded, would you vote for him then? Just something to think about. It's not just the person at the top of the party structure, it's the party underneath and the D party is currently foul and rotten.
I’m so tired of people who have TDS. Who have been blinded by the media and cannot, WILL not hear.
He trusted the hypocrite, back-stabbed Pence. He turned the covid response team over to Pence, as the DEMONS were coming out of the woodwork, trying and succeeding….obviously…..to turn on him. Face it. You already hated him and would have found something to hate him, no matter what.
See a psychologist. Maybe they now have a shot for your TDS.
Rick Rubin has a great interview with her, before she was the choice. She comes across as a thoughtful and intelligent woman who is re-examining her past choices, especially since her child became autistic at the 10 -16 month range. She is self-made, went to school on scholarships, has a very exploratory mind and wants to be sure AI is regulated. Take a look: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tetragrammaton-with-rick-rubin/id1671669052?i=1000650583296
Self-made? Did she mention the confidential divorce settlement from Sergio Brin (co-founder of Google, worth $118B) after she said she "signed the prenuptial under duress" and asked for $1Billion? Brin accused her of having an affair with Elon Musk. I don't think he would've divorced her just on rumor.
You would have to listen to how she grew up in poverty, the company she sold, that she was pregnant when she signed that prenup, etc. If you haven't listened to her ypiu are just going by rumors. Brin is certainly not a trusted source of information.
Abortion should be one of the easiest political issues to settle. About 70% of the country agrees that abortion should be legal up to around 15 weeks. The two extremes (abortion up to and even right after birth, and no abortion under any circumstances) just won't allow this.
This has been covered quite a bit. This is from a gallup poll. It mentions first trimester (13 weeks), but I've heard the 15 week timeframe discussed a lot too.
"When asked about the legality of abortion at different stages of pregnancy, about two-thirds of Americans say it should be legal in the first trimester (69%), while support drops to 37% for the second trimester and 22% for the third. Majorities oppose abortion being legal in the second (55%) and third (70%) trimesters."
Neil, I'm sorry, I read the stats wrong - I thought you said 70% are ok with 2nd and 3rd trimester abortion. But honestly I trust Gallup as much as I trust the FDA, CDC, NIH or Fauci, because Gallup doesn't show what sample size or detail of people they polled, and liberal MSM relies on their legacy as the longest running polling organization to push a narrative. The typical sample size for a Gallup poll, either a traditional stand-alone poll or one night's interviewing from Gallup's Daily tracking, is 1,000 national adults with a margin of error of ±4 percentage points. I had to go dig for that because it's not in the link posted. I'm no statistician, but I can't believe they can actually scale a 1,000 person poll to the population of this entire country without pushing their own internal agenda (Gallup's CFO Taek is also a member of the "CFO Coalition Leadership Group for the United Nations Global Compact"). I wish there was a better way to "trust but verify."
Gallup is one source. While I didn't log the sources as I have read them, over the last 5 years or so there seems to have emerged a pretty clear consensus - about 70% of people in the US agree that abortion should be legal up to around 15 weeks.
It's has always been a major hammer against the Republicans. When I was a young early 20-something in college in the early 1970s, I had a brain full of naive mush and I remember being all whipped up about the abortion issue, so they were using it then. I guess that was right about when Roe v Wade was being decided, so it was definitely a major issue on the college campuses then. I don't recall there being much talk about time limits, 15 weeks or any other, but it was just the "right" of it all.
For the life of me, and from the start, I could make zero sense out of the entire RFK thing form the get-go. But Lawyer Childers' excellent analysis today crosses all tees and dots the eyes.
One has to have some first hand experience in order to understand how things 'work' at the very, very top. And if anyone does, it would certainly be some members of the Kennedy clan. As it, the RFK thing is the Perfect Spoiler with a rider of adding votes to Trump. I find aother comments here intriguing as well.
Lawyer Childers is correct. The Radicals are ruthless, they are cunning ... but they are not smart.
I think people are overthinking this a bit. She has a lot of money and she shares his political views. They are both dyed-in-the-wool leftists, socialists actually. RFK was never taking votes from DJT. He was taking them from the current fake "President." This will only buttress what was already happening, helping him to stay in the race longer, if it has any effect at all. Meaning, I don't see very many more people voting for RFK b/c of his VP pick, especially when they are so aligned politically and ideologically and she really brings nothing new to the table other than money. If she were a "right" leaning person, she could expand his base. But she's not, so she does nothing to expand his base.
I've been following RFK Jr. for more than a year, and he has been presenting himself as a center-moderate liberal. Because of that, he would likely end up taking votes from moderate conservatives and classical liberals - who are part of Trumps voting bloc, but not part of his MAGA base. I am one of those classic liberals (I often call myself a JFK democrat, which now make me a rabid, extreme right winger). With this VP pick, my guess is that almost all of those moderate conservatives and classic liberals will stick with Trump.
There were a lot of hard left democrats (which is most of them now) who would not have voted for RFK Jr. I think many of them now will.
That's a great point. For those same reasons, I hope Trump picks Tulsi. The constituency he polls worst with is white collar professional, high education, women. She might help peel off a few of those.
I was out walking and had a thought: it sure looks like somebody or some group within our system is deep stating the deep state. I mean, this is exactly what the deep state has done for 80 yrs or whatever. Triangulate out any real alternatives. Set it up so that no matter who wins the election, they always get their guy. W/Gore, W/Kerry, Obama/McCain, Obama/Romney, Hillary/Jeb. None of these were/would have been genuine choices b/w differing candidates. Same policies, different clothes and style. Trump threw a wrench in it b/c they didn't expect him to win by the margins he did.
But, it sure looks like someone is setting it up so that we now have 2 anti-establishment candidates triangulating out the establishment candidate. IDK, maybe I'm looking too hard at this. Maybe I'm nuts. But it seems like Trump and RFK just keep finding monetary and "official" "respectable people" support despite all the attempts to marginalize and remove them from the race. I don't think I've seen that happen before.
I read that Kennedy is really setting himself up for 2028 because as of now, there are no viable candidates for either party. And because she has lots of $$$$ for the war( election) coffers.
Ross Perot ran as independent against Clinton and Bush. He siphoned more votes out of Bush than Clinton. That put Clinton in power. Later that brought Obama in power, which in turn have given us BRANDON!!! YAY
Take the logical progression, would we have been in our current sad state had Bush won? Nobody knows, and it makes no difference now. We are here now and cannot change the past, just move forward with the pitiful choices we are given
And, frankly, they share political views. RFK is a leftist. He always has been. The anti-vax sentiment originally came from the left. He's a big gov't person: a gov't should be involved in every issue, every decision, every aspect of life kind of person. So is she. Even before this pick every poll showed RFK was pulling votes from "Joe Biden" not DJT. It all makes total sense.
I had been seriously considering RFK Jr, until he chose his running mate. It made me scratch my head because it was a choice that was nearly the opposite of how he seemed to be positioning himself.
The only way I can make sense of this is that he knew he would not be elected and decided to make sure Biden could not be re-elected. In the same way that never-Trumpers try to take down DJT, he is doing what he can to take the Biden admin down.
So what does he get out of this? I think it is Sec'y HHS in a Trump admin. Then he will be able to focus on his top priority, and has been for a long time: taking down big pharma.
As I just posted: Alex Jones predicted some months ago that IF RFK Jr. tacks hard left, then he is on a Kamikaze mission to destroy the Dems and their Deep State for killing his father and brother - looks like Jones is right again! FOR MORE + MEMES:
POLITICALsteria: Best RFK Jr Memes (Going Full Kamikaze!)
The Media, Big Tech & Hollywood are ready. The RFK Jr sex diary (37 affairs in 2001 alone...), with friends like these (be careful!), at least he talks good on vaccines and more RFK Jr. memes!

What indication has there ever been that Trump acknowledges the problems with Big Pharma or their products, which he is STILL touting (and doubled down this month) Warp Speed and his abominable handling of the "pandemic" as his shining accomplishment? Trump still seems to think he's a hero for rolling out this poison and for every other destructive policy he pushed in 2020. I could see assuming that if he said nothing about it, but he's doing the opposite.
Trump needs to keep his effing mouth shut about the vaxx!
He needs an advisor to talk to half his voters...so out of touch...almost makes me want to gag as much as listening to shit-stain in chief.
I mean does he think he'll gain one vote by claiming how great his non-vaxx vaxx was?!
In fact, it's just the opposite.
Follow the money. I think he was bought by Pfizer. He got a nice $1M donation to his inauguration, then appointed Pfizer lobbyists to head public health (look up Alex Azar if you really want to gag), he was personally invested $20-60M in Pfizer at that time, and then he awarded presidential commendations to Fauci, Birx and the rest of the criminal bureaucrats on his last day in office. When asked about that by Megyn Kelly last summer, he feigned amnesia. And lest we think this is an isolated incident, he received $500K from Monsanto and then cut regulations for GMO foods. Standard politician pay-for-play. He didn't drain the swamp because he's one of them. That should have been obvious as well, from his appointments of Bill Barr and the rest of the well known swamp creatures he put into positions of power.
There no good way out of this mess. Even the campaign now on-going 'to save America' is highly compromised, highly flawed. But it is as 'a plan' better than concentration camps, mass liquidations outright and total unbridled lawlessness.
Looking around, there is no plan anywhere to restore America to organic constitutions, to have a compliant constitutional law order/law codes. To just begin to bring such stuff up and as regards most people, they will look at such a one as if he just flew out of the cuckoo clock at the stroke of twelve.
Survivors of the Titanic, floating in the icy Atlantic, were focused on how do we survive this disaster. Not how do we reform the shipping industry.
We are survivors, clinging to life at this point. All that planning for reforms will have to wait until we have been made safe and sound.
We are in great and grave danger at this point in time. A fact lost on many.
Well stated. Not even people who 'know' stuff know how bad things truly are. Given this, I recently was gratified to hear Dr. David Martin to so forcibly hold forth and not only on the Covid Terrorism topic. Martin also recognizes that the present time a is threat existential across the spectrum of all human endeavor.
Is there anymore a 'safe and sound' place of reside given the technological threats hanging over us like a sword ready to descend and destroy at the flick of a kill switch?
Well, either there is, or we all die. God wins in the end.
That’s why we must humble ourselves and pray and repent of our sins; they are so many. We are freezing in the water with no help in sight (what a great analogy, btw. This is no time to be talking about hot to improve the ship’s design and construction! It’s a little late for that.) The only thing that will save us is an act of God. The only thing that will bring that about is true repentance. There will be consequences no matter which way we choose. But there would be hope.
Yes. II Chronicles 7:14.
The most perfect Constitution won’t help if too many will not follow it, and suffer no consequences.
There has to be a spiritual revival.
Terrific description.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/03/some_men_just_want.html
I read American Thinker article and I think the main point is valid, but I think there are also many other motive and reasons, especially at the one percent and above level.
I also think the civil war going on in the United States. I think that we are also under attack from foreign powers, largely for reasons of the making by the corrupt ruler class. I also think that the White Hats are not genuinely white. And maybe more Grey Hats than White.
A buddy of mine has often commented that men like Gates, Soros and Schwab are just bitter old men who want to kill as many people as they can because they know that they are soon going to die. They just want to take as many as they can with them. Of course, these are not the 1%.
This particular rational strikes me as being somewhat shallow ... and possibly a grasping at straws in trying to make sense out of that which cannot be rendered sensible to understanding by all normal mental inclination.
People like Gates, Soros, Schwab actually believe in their agendas (depopulation, transhumanism, eugenics and so only). To them is a religion to achieve some good. And the 'good' to be obtained justifies the idea of the end justifying the means. These people, for whatever justification, believe that 'they' occupy the high ground ... and their material wealth and power seconds the motion.
Then there are the Useful Idiots. These poor people actually believe that they too occupy the high ground because someone told them so, sold them a seemingly believable bill of goods. The Useful idiots are controllable enablers for the elites due to deficits in their education and/or access to real facts.
The above can be even smart people in many ways, excepting that they are very flawed.
Gates, Soros, Schwab and people like them usually become bitter only once they hit a speed bump and are made impoverished and/or imprisoned for their criminal actions.
The difference between Good and Evil is the difference between Truth and Lies, between Law and Lawlessness.
I think you make a good stab at it. In the end it is about power and that is there definition of "good". They are all narcissistic personalities and even narcissists know that their 'good' is not good for anyone else. Here is to making them bitter!
I wish there was a "crying face" button, because I just can't heart this. But oh, how spot on that article is....
Oh, dear Lord, what a wonderful and sad, sad article. Such an on point description of where we sit today in grave danger of annihilation.
An article titled "some men want" underneath another piece titled "three ways" deserves this link that I first thought of when I saw the C&C email this morning:
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/florida-gop-chairmans-hunt-for-a-threesome-results-in-sexual-assault-allegation/ar-AA1kWBHu
Just sayin'.
Come, Lord Jesus! No one can be trusted.
Excellent. Comments were all terrific…as we understand and focus on the things of life these days.
Mass non-compliance. Nearly impossible with skilled tv-watchers and the worried well scared out of their senses. Literally.
I think this way too. But the powers in the West know that public support has largely collapsed for Woke Marxism. And it is know that rule without popular support is usually a fatal weakness. And there is a kind of roll back going on.
Things will not work out like I want them to. But totally wacky Woke insane cannot last forever because eventual the power flows to strength. And that whether it is power in the world or within a country. Weakness long term never triumphs, only strength.
If what Chris Rufo has been able to accomplish is any indication, you may be right. I certainly hope so! Let it not be said we went down quietly.
Hi Gaye! And let it be said that we all could like some relief from Stock Raving Madness Quite Insane. (And a good Easter remembrance!)
Indeed!
Amen! I don’t see why so many people are so blind.
I do not really blame Trump for OWS. Many other good people--including good scientists, such as the Great Barrington Declaration authors--were in favor of it. In fact, I heard Jay Bhattacharya make the ridiculous statement that he got COVID but it was a mild case because of the shot. I get very upset with Trump when he still touts the shot, but I don't believe he would ever have mandated it. And that's the most important thing in my mind. If everyone had been free to make the choice of getting vaxxed or not, many people would have chosen not to get it. So Trump was in favor of freedom of choice, and that's more important to me than having been in favor of the shot in the first place.
Finally a sane comment on this. Beyond even that, President Trump played a bad hand as well as he could, and the Deep State wanted to lock us down for good but we had their dastardly plans forced. If you think things were bad, it's nothing compared to what their plan for us was...
I follow Trump closely. The only jab comment I know anything about is when he reacted to what Biden said in the SOTU speech. He was calling Biden out for lying, not pushing the vaccine. Open minded people can see that clearly.
TDS is truly blinding. And how sad you want to vomit on President Trump.
I think that level of hatred may cause serious internal issues for you.
I do get the impression that Trump has a very hard time acknowledging mistakes, and he may still be partially blind to just how bad the jab actually is, because to admit it was bad would make OWS bad, and he's publicly bragged about how good it was and taken the credit for it. People are complicated, and all of us have flaws and errors of some kind. I just pray that he can be humble enough to admit his mistakes, even if only privately.
Sweet Jesus! I don’t get those of you who just want an apology. The left would try to beat him to death with it, but Lord knows, he hasn’t suffered nearly enough yet, so he just needs to show weakness and take the defeat.
Well, not sure if you meant it that way, but I don't care about a personal apology to me or anyone else (I share the attitude some others posted, of just because he encouraged it is not the same thing as forcing people to take it). I'm just looking from outside and thinking "how do I know that he understood his mistake and won't make a similar mistake in future?".
DJT also bragged about taking Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin. So ....was he really a shill for big pharma? Both generics, both highly controversial after he took them.
Hah - *anything* Trump said or did immediately became "highly controversial" unless it was in line with what the media were pushing. I certainly don't think he was a shill, though I think he was misled by his advisors (and not sure if he's prepared to admit that, though I hope he is).
I 100% agree with you. He was in favor of freedom of choice and I do NOT believe he would have mandated it.
Sarahanne25- No trump supporter is blind to trumps OWS and patting himself on the back for it. It makes most of us want to vomit. Who would you prefer we get behind? If RFK was an option to anyone he just blew that. So, what good does it do to keep bashing Trump or supporters? Best case scenario….Trump gets RFK into HHS like Neil Kellen suggested and then gets the hell out of the way so RFK jr can take down big Harma and put them all in prison!
I’ve decided. Biden has to be stopped. We will not survive 4 more Biden years so I will be voting for Trump. It has to stop somewhere. We don’t have much time. Bring it on.
You’re wrong when you don’t think people aren’t oblivious to his faults. Why do you think DeSantis had to drop out? Desantis was not only the better candidate, he is a better man.
I’m holding my nose and voting for Trump this upcoming election knowing he will continue to grow the swamp.
Operation warp speed. Fast tracked vaxxes.
I live in Florida. DeSantis is a great governor but lots of reasons why he dropped out. He is owned by rinos on the national stage as proven by his statements and backtracking the next day (s). He looked visibly uncomfortable the whole time. Look up his donors. Plus there’s a bunch of issues in Florida he is either ignoring or purposely not dealing with. Statewide major insurance issues, the disabled community that doesn’t get state services and has a 25,000 person waitlist to even get any help just to name a couple. But he has a great track record with so many other issues too…as governor. He should’ve waited until after Trump to move in for the kill. It’s too bad he jumped the gun.
Doesn’t matter really at this point. You can have your “favorite” just as much as the next person. No candidate is without flaws or blind sides. It’s ok to hold your nose and vote for Trump. The vaxx issue is the monkey on his back that hopefully someday he will have to answer for.
As much as you think supporters are blind to his faults - the same could be said to those who took the vax just because he said to. Shame on anyone who makes a decision just because Trump or another politician or celebrity or athlete says to. Poor decision makers if that’s what sways a person to inject something into their body, really.
If anyone is owned by rinos it’s Trump. Trump started the transgender taking over women’s competitions years ago. Trump appointees are swamp creatures or rinos. Yes, Trump did some good things, but he’s a shallow person that’s great at manipulating others by talking himself up.
Desantis probably saw Trump for what he is -a democrat and not so great guy.
Yes? And for whom do we vote?
That is the Hobson's Choice, isn't it? We've been voting "lesser of two evils" for so long that two or three terrible choices is all that remain. I had hopes for DeSantis, but apparently, we haven't gone far enough down this rabbit hole for enough people to see that he was the best candidate we've had in decades. So here we are. Screwed no matter what. Hang on folks, the next few years are gonna be rough!
People said DeSantis had no charisma and DJT had mean tweets. Seriously people are amazingly ignorant.
APPLY for Project 2025 and get in the vipers' nest to help clean it out. I know of NO OTHER grassroots option and action to resist the Progressive-Commie Gvt warring against us
I've been so publicly conservative for so long now, that they probably wouldn't let me anywhere near them, even if I could stomach being around that level of stupid or becoming good at lying. But you do have a point, that we need to take this on from the bottom up - local, city, county and state politics is what counts, from school boards to city councils on up.
DeSantis = RINO
I've probably asked for evidence of anything RD has DONE to prove he's a RINO dozens of times, but there's never any offered. He keeps accomplishing everything that Republicans and conservatives SAY they want in FL, but I guess y'all just don't want it badly enough yet.
Mr Sundance is their proof from conservative treehouse.
I still think Gov DeSantis was our best candidate but I will vote for DJT.
Who was funding his campaign? What about his stance on Ukraine?
I get a kick out of folks who think DeSantis is a puppet for the establishment or a bitch-boy for Trump.
He was a lowly congressman, who was governor for only one year before he stood up against POTUS, the media, a terrified/cowardly public and the establishment on Covid. Pressure breaks pipes. He didn't crack...Trump did.
He's got some pretty big cojones for being a so called lightweight.
People blather on and on about what various people "really are". I keep watching DeSantis' actions and comparing what he says he believes to what he does as Governor. He's pretty amazingly consistent and he has done one great thing after another. If he's a RINO, he's a very odd one. Actions always speak louder than words, and DS's words match his actions better than any politician I know of. I sure wish he were the Governor of Commiefornia where I live!
And he keeps winning for the state of FL. Would that he was the nominee
Unfortunately, the various factions are running the game ... and not us. Rule is always top down. Man is factional. The first DJT term may well have been beta testing and probing the front lines for weakness. It may well have been a set-up for 2024. At present, getting back to a moral law order and unalienable Rights practice would take an outright act of God.
I saw an absolutely square cloud yesterday evening here in Idaho. We are in a war of good vs. evil. Period. God used such flawed humans as his messengers and prophets. Even in his own lineage was David, and we all know what he did. So, we cannot pin our hopes on one man, only God. And who He uses to fulfill His purpose is yet to be seen. All I know is this nation was much better off under Trump than Biden. But the barn door is open and the illegals are streaming in. Biden/Satan has been on a mission to gut this nation of God and have done a bang up job. That is what all these horrible political/executive mandates and decisions are. Has there been even ONE for the good of the citizens of this nation? I would have to say that is a hard no. From the closing of the Keystone pipeline to the jab mandates, Jan 6th, Ukraine and the border and on and on and on goes the list since this shadow government was inaugurated. The plan is in place for 2024, but will the white hats win? Who the hell knows...because the steal is on.
Right. We are in a precarious stage right now; indifference.
I always have to remind myself that this is the default position of mankind. It is so frustrating to see it unfold. It starts with indifference; first in tiny, virtually imperceptible steps and eventually in "imperceptible" giant steps.
First indifference. Then apathy.
Then manacles
"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage"
- Alexander Fraser Tytler
Man...you hit the nail on the head. I have never seen such ignorant apathy in my life. As long as their FB doesn't go out and they can shop at Wal-Mart, or they can get their next piercing or tat, all is well. But when the trucks stop running and their devices stop working, well, I see dead people. The Walking Dead people.
I was recently thinking that it actually might be a very good thing if FB and all social media were to suddenly get cut off. People just might have to start "thinking" all of a sudden. This is why I don't think the PTBs will ever allow this to happen, because they need to keep brainwashing the susceptibles and they most certainly don't want them thinking for themselves!
If there is an EMP or something, what could they do about that? And the infrastructure of this country is, in some states, going to shite.
Yeah they'll do real well in The Reaping
Here is a great stack by Matt Taibbi that is very relevant to this...
https://www.racket.news/p/maintain-your-brain
Tytler cycle.
Related? A little out there, but hey, we're residents of the cosmos. No getting away from it.
The star Betelgeuse, part of the constellation Orion, apparently exploded some 600-ish years ago. Webb telescope only detected a change several years ago. The rest is math I guess. Above my pay grade. Anyway, the star is so far away, some 500+ light years, that the full brunt of "shock" wave of energy released hasn't reached us yet. How much energy? I can't say. The star is/was nearly 900x the size of our sun. Big one. The somewhat-dissipated-due-to-distance "shock" wave of energy is due to arrive here shortly. What kind of energy? I can't say. But surely said wave will shift something on our planet. What? I can't say. But if you've ever felt the energy of a conversation shift, or felt the energy of a room when you walk into it, them's small energies. I 'spect this'll be a wee bit diffrnt.
Is everything in Divine order? Of course! What that is, yet again I am sadly not informed enough to say. But could this cosmic event be tied to this iteration of a Tytler cycle? Just asking the question. I suspect none but God has full information to answer. Plus I am unaware if Mr. Tytler, keen observer earthling, ever factored in our cosmic residency as some type of influence in his cyclical collapses. Food for thought - and all kinds o' speculation. Sure is an interestin' time to be alive on planet earth. 🤔
I asked my ultra leftist, TDS afflicted brother to give me a list of 5 horrible things Trump did while President, and also a list of 5 great things Biden has done as President. No answer from him, he wouldn't and couldn't go there.
Nice...most people never call those people out. I am sure if we started the crickets would be even louder. I saw a smidge of the news last night at a friend's house about Obama and Clinton campaigning for the insect infesting the oval office. Made me so sick. I do not know how people can have network TV. This reminds me of the jab...everyone is doing it and the big dogs are saying to do it. Guess what? I ain't falling for that.
Hey - great question! Can you answer it?
Very much agree. And I see, as Childers has mentioned, a very noticeable move towards God in the last year or so. So I am hopeful about that. God will work through us, not for us. He is turning hearts, and now it's up to us to deliver on his promise.
Zactly Niel Kellen. Be about His business until the moment we are called home.
This is all true. January 6th is pure invention aided and abetted by the FBI and the Party of Insurrectional Radicals. The Ukraine is just part, I repeat part, of a 30 year policy objective against an independent sovereign Russian state. One could go on. And it is all pure Evil. Wars against the countries of the world. A war against the people of the once United States. Many levels here ... and deception here reigns as king.
What is the simple straight truth is that the Wicked Ones war insurrectional against God and anyone who believes in God, in our Lord Jesus.
Read "Conjuring Hitler" by Guido Giacona Preparata. Russia was under Imperial rule by world's elites way before even WWI. They were also the ultimate sacrificers of life in WWII as 20 million perished fighting. Without them, UK and USA would not have ever done a victory dance.
Here's a PDF copy of the book for your eReader if interested.

Amen, Mama!
Oh Good God you must be joking.....President Trump is a billionaire who can't be bought. To read this sort of crap after all this time is mind numbing...
He is not "immune" to people who kiss the ring, obviously. The money trail is verifiable. Find another reason someone would hire the fox to guard the henhouse; something I could have told you was unwise when I was age 5. With the disastrous results we saw in 2020.
Sweet Mana. I would love to see all you detractors leading better than Trump did with every demon on the hill throwing crap at him from the moment he said he was running for President. You nor would your fellow detractors wouldn’t last one minute in his shoes.
I was born and will die, a WOMAN.
But you and all these feminized men and hysterical TDS women would have had a hormonal-induced ‘hissy fit’ in the first minute of being attacked as he was and still is.
Not one of you even thinks about the fact that he turned the response over to Pence and that back-stabbed was IN CHARGE of the covid response team. PENCE. And PENCE was a RAT, just like Fauci and Birx.
So sorry do many of you are as blind as bats.
These were unforced errors. I don't know anyone for whom a history of making terrible choices is a plus on a resume for leadership. He made these choices right from the start, after receiving $$$$ for his inauguration, he continued to reward these abominable people, and he's very recently doubled down on his support for them. No one made him do that. He could have remained quiet on the mass poisoning of billions of people, but instead, he's kept throwing his support behind the worst crimes against humanity in world history, with more far reaching consequences than the Holocaust. No matter what is "thrown at you", if you support evil, then you are not fit for leadership. Period. No more excuses. For the record, I do object to the lawfare crap being thrown at him, but that does not excuse his behavior.
Truth.
What Trump has had to endure would kill an ordinary man if he didn't first give up and retire from the field of battle. He's made a lot of mistakes but name me ONE real life "hero" who hasn't. You can start with Jacob, Samson and David. Jesus doesn't count.
hopefully lessons learned, remember he's not a lifetime beaurocrat. most of those ppl turned on him and deceived him. normal ppl do not dream up how to take advantage of others and backstab...but seems to be all any govt entity can do....hire corruptable ppl who'll sell their soul cheap.
Is being easily deceived and not listening to independent scientists and doctors a sign of a good leader? Is not investigating the backgrounds and swamp history of the people you are hiring to "drain the swamp" a trait that good leaders should possess? Being unprepared for the job is not a plus on any resume that I know of.
Agreed, Ryan. I just have a hard time thinking Trump doesn't know anything about the carnage and havoc the "safe and effective" sacred miracle elixir is wreaking on the population. It would be best for him to shut his mouth. He could issue an apology, but something tells me that will never happen. I think the deep state played him like a fiddle with their "final solution," I mean "safe and effective" solution. They appealed to his ego and he ate it up. He probably realizes it was wrong, but continues to double down. I think his ex-wife fell down the stairs and died a couple years ago. Who's to say she wasn't a victim of the sacred miracle elixir?
Trump could be a hero by championing the vax-injured and mandate-injured.
The best apology would be for DJT to win the presidency and then appoint RFK who knows where all the bodies are to clean the mess up.
(I am currently jaded enough to think that we the people will never see a satisfactory outcome of justice with regard to Covid Terrorism. Maybe just some patching it all over.)
I do think DJT needs to be very strategic in what he says so that he can appeal to the many people who voted for Biden previously but who are dissatisfied with Biden enough to consider him now. I'd love it if he could rub their noses in all the lying and deception, but that may not be a good strategy to convince those who have been against him. He has clearly dialed back a lot of his brashness, and that's a good thing for electioneering. When he gets back in the Oval Office, he can then let loose on it all.
I always remember that while Trump had long been a NY society gadfly and welcome in Democrat power circles, he did see the light and wanted to "drain the swamp". He was a newcomer to the dirty political inner workings of the power elite, despite having been among them socially. He went into office not knowing fully who all the bad players were. Fauci, for example. He had been in his position for decades, and in the beginning Trump had no reason to fire him immediately. He just didn't know who he could trust and who he couldn't trust. I read Scott Atlas' book and while Trump listened to this one man, he had a lot of others in supposedly reliable positions of scientific power that he wasn't in a position to immediately dismiss. I don't think any of us would take the word of ONE person against multitudes of others at the beginning of something like covid. None of us started researching covid knowing the extent of it. How could we? And how could Trump? What is now clear is that they lied to him and deceived him and hid things from him even though as President he should have been privy to all information. But he knows NOW. That's the important thing.
Yes CMCM, I pretty much said the same thing here yesterday about being strategic. I sure hope we're right about that. I've never been enthusiastic about any candidate ( always the least crappy one) but here we are again. And I truly think he loves this country and wants to help unlike the commie dems!
Agree 100%...as usual Blair!
Ryan, I always enjoy reading your comments.
I heard Trump is pedaling Bibles now and he’s telling everyone it’s his favorite book - he reads it “ALL the time”. Apparently Trump’s Bible costs $59.99. Now admittedly, I heard this on a Canadian main stream media news radio station, so I recite this with a healthy dose of skepticism as to its veracity. I keep thinking about the Handmaid’s Tale and wondering if Margaret Lawrence was warning us (or telling us- she seems to be pretty cozy with WEF ideology these days) about what is in store for us. I look around and imagine who is going to be in each part- I think it’s safe to say that due to my age and my vocal disagreement with current politicians and health strategies - I will be one of the old ladies shoveling radioactive waste around!
Trump is only promoting it, along with a lot of other people. This particular Bible is Lee Greenwood's doing. The corporate media is bending over backwards trying to tie it to Trump.
Ah, that sounds just like what the media would do. Though I'm still curious of the details.... searching up the stories and the actual site, it's apparently a fancy bible containing: The Bible, plus "Handwritten chorus to “God Bless The USA” by Lee Greenwood, United States Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and The Pledge of Allegiance". Possibly a bit sacrilegious to some... but also very traditionally conservative American.
Though I can't help laughing at the claims of "King James translation" combined with "easy to read"... bit of an oxymoron there! (But, once again, VERY "traditional conservative".)
I purchased the said Bible for my kids as a family Bible a couple years ago. Lee Greenwood had a devil of a time (sorry, couldn't help myself) getting the book printed. So long were the delays that they offered refunds if people were tired of waiting.
Like you, I'm not a King James guy, NKJ is fine though.
He is risen indeed!
I mean, what kind of binding and printing are those Bibles he's selling? A good leatherbound bible could easily go for $100, but if it's a cheap softcover one then it's a rip off... it's all in the details. (At I guess, I would have thought Trump would be at the 'luxury' end of the spectrum, but who knows.)
(Edit: I'm also curious what translation he's selling. A source with details would be nice.)
It's not Trump's Bible; it's Lee Greenwood's Bible. Trump is only promoting it.
Margaret Atwood?
Check out Scott Altas MD. (neither party affiliated). Atlas was selected by President Donald Trump in August 2020 to serve as an advisor on the White House Coronavirus Task Force. He gave Trump all the info he needed to NOT mandate masks or shut the country down. But Trump bent the knee to the Fauci agenda.
His book:
A Plague Upon Our House: My Fight at the Trump White House to Stop COVID from Destroying America – December 7, 2021
He's done some great interviews too.
Candace Owens asked trump point blank about the vax carnage shown in VAERS. He denied it and repeated his "beautiful vaccine has saved millions of lives".
Trump would be wise to pretend along with the DeepStaters and their media that mRNA is better than sliced bread and safer than a tic tac while destroying it all from behind the scenes; if he goes openly anti-VAXX it only makes the job harder, targets himself, and lets our enemies meet him on the field of battle--better to run cover and destroy both Pharma and Security-Spy-State by attacking their infrastructure less boldly.
That’s the beauty of DJT. He doesn’t announce his plans and tactics to the enemy.
Yes. Because when Trump said it was good, the RATS were NEVER going to use it. As soon as Biden took office, it was wonderful. Pick you battles wisely. (I can’t believe you and I are in agreement)
To YOUR astute point, Trump being anti-Vaxx in 2020 would have destroyed him, the Commies can change on a dime (ours, NOT their own) and Menshevik-media covers for them and it's as if they Always had that same position...Pharma-Military immediately set Biden-Harris on course had they even not been? Likely their defiance of taking a Trump Vaxx was faked as they knew the game plan and were excited at all the Authoritarian Opportunities it would offer and the $$$ involved for their donors and supporters as well as the culling qualities. Had they NOT stolen the election, they'd have had to become anti-vaxxxers OR given Trump and Warpy speed credit--both terrible options to Leftist Frauds.
High-five! welcome to finally being right! feels extraordinary, no?
Certainly we're not at odds much are we? even so, sit down 3 Christian Conservatives and you'd have 3 instant at-odds denominations after 20 minutes. Not sure how the Commie-Prog-Libs keep their coalition so very uniform...til the Jews and Harmus attackers got it stirred up anyway.
Don’t miss this from Bongino. It’s what keeps me up. We have to deliver Trump the electoral vote# needed to win. Giving the House Speakership to Hakeem J. would be devastating.
Agreed
It could happen due to House Republicans' decisions to retire before the election. If their seats go unfilled, the Dems get to pick the speaker since they'd have the majority. This, according to Roger Stone who wrote about it in his Substack twice this week.
Pretty sure that is going to happen. Then the economy tanks, under Dem control. We need a complete rebound and that just may be what does it. The final mail in there coffin, I hope.
He should shut up about it. While "Warp Speed", (to develop a vaccine and establish a logistics structure) in and of itself, might be a decent accomplishment, everything after it was awful. No real testing of vaccine safety?
Unbelievably stupid and risky. Cheerleader Pence as the head of the task force? Huge joke. Not canning Fauci because Jared told him it would hurt his reelection? Really poor leadership and judgment.
remember the mRNA were ready and developed b4 covid....this has been planned for years...just waiting for the flu to take hold enough to create a plandemic and then force the fake vaxxines. trump signed on with moderna when there were NO deaths or cases of covid, just a handful.
This isn’t directed at you but in general about Trump and the Covid vax. I never took the vax and will never take any. However, I am absolutely surrounded by conservatives who were desperate back in late 2020/early 2021 to get the vaccine and, as soon as it came out, they did. I only personally know a handful who had the discernment to not take it. So the clamoring for the vax and Trump’s warp speed as far as 70% of the country thought, was a success. There have been a few “died suddenlies” I know of but, unless one is looking for the whys, it is not readily apparent. I live in a red state but apparently the hot lots were not well distributed here. It should never have been mandated but Trump was not the one who did that. He did satisfy the majority by getting the vaccine to them when they clamored for them. Heck, there were churches here with drive through vax clinics set up in their parking lots. We who chose otherwise were few and far between the crowd who were desperate to get them.
He won't make confession to us and really it's most prudent to just allow others do it for him by dismantling Pharmya and the Security State Nazi Leadership and structures; him being overtly vocal and telegraphing anything at all is counterproductive for ACTUALLY demolishing the system; feign ProVaxx, and pro FBI, and Support of Ukraine's leader and then smash them to pieces, do the same with everything--he can maintain that he's just listening to experts as he sics the dogs on the system and implements reforms. Media will flip out that he's allowing it but he takes no direct hits over it.
Weird that people still think he's playing some sort of 4D chess, despite his track record. Your theory might be plausible if he were not continuing to tout the clott shotts as the best thing ever. Being quietly neutral would have been a better tactic if that were the case.
yes, a neutral response and some minor oblique mention of recent data and studies would be all we'd need..the crowing about how awesome it all is, a bit much
It's more horrifying at this point than being a Holocaust denier. This is bigger and more far reaching in terms of massive destruction of human lives and health.
Warp speed was the best thing for us. Ever think that may not mean the shots? He always said you have a choice. We may never know what has been going on but we also may not know what we were saved from happening. The world is a messed up place but there are signs of improvement.
It was clearly NOT "the best thing for us". And he's made very clear that he means the shots, many times. He said AFTER he was out of office that he "wouldn't have" forced the shots, but he allowed lockdowns & the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor & middle class to billionaires ever, putting people out of jobs, schools, businesses and doctor's offices. The suppression of known early treatments for that fraudulently obtained EUA, murdering millions worldwide in just the first year, before we really saw excess deaths on the rise in 2021 and to this day. That's not a success in my mind, unless you're with the WEF and want to reduce population through iatrogenocide. And really, the idea that he didn't force the shots is lame, since he didn't have the opportunity - the shots had only just started to roll out at the end of his term, and even Biden didn't mandate anything for 6 months after he took office. Given the profligate liar that Trump is, I don't believe a word he says.
I do understand where you are coming from. You just said they just started rolling out at the end of his term, it was all under Biden. Trump didn’t fire my husband or force my loved ones to get it. Some died and some have cancer and other issues. I am Not convinced they didn’t trade them out. For example at the beginning, they were trying to build new vehicles to haul them to keep them at a very low temperature. Whatever happened with that? Because that never came to be.
I find it alarming you jump to I must be wef. Seriously WTH 😳
Re-read what I wrote. I did not say that. I assume you aren't, which is why something that's causing so much death and destruction should be objectionable to you. Trump didn't do those things because he never had the chance. He did everything the frauds Fauci & Birx directed him to do, as did Biden, so we can only assume what "might have" happened, had he had the chance. We'll never know and he'll never admit he was wrong - that much we DO know. Which means he's learned nothing and would do it again.
You have TDS. You totally and completely hate the man and are incapable of treating him fairly. We get it.
You must take great comfort in the legal hell he’s being put through and pray intensely that he’ll be destroyed one way or another. I don’t think you’re a sweet mama. I think you’re a sick mama.
Interesting, that the only comments you make here are just pure hatred against Trump.
Again, "Willing Spirit" but not much thinking. Someone with TDS would not have voted for him twice, as I did. Lesser of two evils and all that...but then I did a little digging and realized what we are up against with him, especially after he's been INSISTING for 3 years that he "did everything perfectly" and "saved 100 million lives" with Warp Speed, a very well proven lie. You just keep name calling without addressing or refuting a single fact. Ad hominem attacks are evidence that you have no logical response.
And you are lying about what you claim he is pushing.
I find her comments quite balanced, actually.
And I'll be voting for Trump a 3rd time because we need a bull in a sacred cow shop right now.
But we can't make the bull the golden calf either. Irreverence to our ruling class should be our only sacred cow.
If you bullshit too much you just end up being the rodeo clown. He needs to get the job done this time!
Part of that is knowing when to keep his mouth shut.
Will still on the same team Willing Spirit?
Sure we’re on the same team. But you owe DJT more respect. He did an awesome job considering what he was up against. He should be dead by now.
I respect him immensely. He's just what the country needed in 2016. He was robbed in 20'.
And he's needed more than ever right now.
But he is not above reproach.
I get your points but don’t agree with the “he allowed lockdowns.” He really didn’t have the power to allow or enforce or disallow. What could he have done to prevent the blue state or RINO red state lockdowns? I just don’t see how he could have done anything about them either way. If you have information showing a mechanism for him to prevent or force state lockdowns, please share it with me, because I am not aware of any.
When RD opened FL after 28 days, Trump threatened to pull federal funding from FL. Trump pushed the lockdowns for quite some time, and even insisted in a press conference that he had the power to do that. And he may not have had it directly, but as we saw with Biden when he spitefully pulled resources from FL for their monoclonal antibody centers, presidents hold the purse strings on resources they've received from the taxpayers in those states. Because RD was so smart about managing the state of FL, he was able to work around these fools because the state is not broke.
Yes I remember that and he went too far. But not as far as he could’ve and not as far as Biden. He also railed against Kemp in Georgia who opened earlier. But he didn’t do anything against South Dakota and I don’t recall sanctions against Georgia. Definitely not good decisions on his part to threaten Florida. I wonder why he changed so much from the insistence on opening before Easter to that more extreme reaction.
Good question. And he didn't have an opportunity to go as far as Biden. We can all speculate on what he would or wouldn't have done as far as mandates, but the fact is that the rollout of the toxic jabs was only just getting started at the end of his term, and even Biden didn't push it that far for the first 6 months of his occupancy.
Good Lord! Please show us where you have seen him touting the jab! And not that comment he made about Biden lying in the SOTU that got all twisted by you haters.
Don’t lie! I watch most of his rally speeches. He is not talking about the vaccines!

December 20, 2021? Really?
It seems like we are all armchair quarterbacks. Personally, I would love all criticism stopped about the OWS and other bs so we can focus on the future!!! One thing I think would be beneficial would be start talking about who would hold what cabinet positions… maybe it we get a loud enough voice in it, President Trump will listen to We the People. We have seen the good, bad and the ugly… and there is a lot of ugly. I think RFK Jr going after pharma is a perfect example! I would love to see Candace Owens on his cabinet too! Let’s make our voice count instead of complaining!!
How many Trump speeches have you ever listened to? You will not find in them what you are claiming.
Many. I pay attention. And when people tell us who they are, as many times as Trump has, we should believe them.
Oh, yeah. Dozens and dozens of times…includes it in all his speeches. Bullshit.
I disagree with the author of the Substack post that Kennedy dealt himself a death blow by this. He never really had much support from Trump voters. Who he does have a lot of support from are leftleft-leaning millennials and independents. I think it's very likely he shored up his support with that massive group. I think this may turn out to be a very strategically smart move. And I couldn't agree more about the vax issue. Trump and RFK don't really agree on very much, and although I prefer Trump to Biden, Trump doesn't care at all about the issues that are most important to me (chronic disease, big Pharma capture of government and media, regenerative agriculture, environmental pollution, etc.).
Does anybody really care how many women he had sex with a quarter of a century ago?
Nope, I don't care one iota about his past. A person with an unsavory personal past can still be a good leader and do the right things for the people. And a person who is pristine, perfect and with a monk-like past can be a horrendous, ineffective leader. Neither Jesus nor Mother Teresa is running for President. Nothing I've read in the Bible says that God chose only perfect, flawless, sinless people to do important things.
Very true and actually many bad awful Kings as well.
Exactly. Well said
Maybe if his wife hadn't committed suicide after being married to the bastard. I've stood within 3 feet of him back when he was probably writing this diary. He is lecherous and arrogant, like the rest of his family.
She was mentally ill, according to reports I have read.
I care. Especially while he was married. If his wife can’t trust him, who can?
People change. I believe in redemption and forgiveness.
If he can’t control his *sexual* appetites, obviously he can’t control any of them. Except he can and he does, as evidenced by his billion dollar empire. You don’t get to where he is by being undisciplined. You could say he was undisciplined about a character matter, and you would have a valid point. But he is generous - with his time, his money, his resources. He sees individual people and he cares about their plight. In a world where our “leaders” don’t care about us at all anymore, it’s a breath of fresh air to have someone care so loudly, so in-your-face to the opposition that wants to destroy us.
Everyone has their flaw(s) (some of us have more than one and some of those are pretty egregious) but if you look at the overall picture of a person’s life, rather than focusing on only specific areas, it gives you a better idea of the total picture of the person. When I (and many others) look at Trump, we can see the ugliness in certain aspects of the painting of his life. But if we stand back and take in the whole picture, we can see a masterpiece.
It was RFK JR who had many, many , many, many affairs.
Have to add this (since I can’t edit in the app on my phone) that I too thought this was a trash Trump thread. I read the beginning several times before I made my comment and then finished the remainder of the thread only to discover I wasn’t the only one confused! Regardless, whether we’re discussing Trump, or Brand, or RFK, Jr., the entire picture gives a better sense of the measure of the person.
The media does - He kept a diary rating the women or what he did with them and the wife found it..........
Lots of people do that - men and women. Particularly Boomers - you know it was all sex, drugs and rock and roll for our generation. I suspect almost all of the people who might care about this wouldn't be voting for him anyway.
Are you talking about all the affairs RFK JR had ?
My question in return would be, "is he still doing it?" (As far as I know, the answer is "no" - from what I've seen of Melania, he probably doesn't dare...!)
I can certainly forgive people for their past if they've changed. It's more difficult to overlook ongoing flaws, though.
Melania? That's Trump's wife. RFK Jr's wife is Cheryl. I have no idea if he is being true to her but I hope he is. I suspect if he weren't we'd know it by now. Hence the reason why the Biden crew had to dredge up some shade from 25 years ago.
Wait, this is the "bash RFK" thread rather than the "bash Trump" thread? I'm so used to the "he slept with tons of women" thing being pointed at Trump... but I'd hold the same position regarding either man.
Well, they both did. They were both fabulously wealthy and good looking.
Yes. Integrity matters. If he's repented, that's different. But I see no integrity here.
NO. NOT. AT. ALL
RFK is very open about being in 12-step recovery from drug and sex addiction and has been clean for many years. Russell Brand is as well. I think of having a President that understands sex and drug addiction and has overcome it (12 step programs are based on dedicating your life to God-a spiritual but not religious act). There is so so much addiction in our country and I would love to see leaders who understood real solutions to the crisis.
He admits that his life was terribly lived. He us now a quite devout Christian. Just saying.
Yea and Trump is no angel either. HOWEVER, this meme sums up how TOXIC RFK JR. potentially is: https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2c8c7e72-551b-4d1d-a231-74e1899a1af7_513x680.jpeg
Not exactly. I have listened to him speak on a few of these topics. These days, you need to actually listen to people speak, not take what others say about them as gospel.
Absolutely!
I still get people telling me that Trump told the public to "inject bleach". I ask them to find a quote of him saying that, but they cannot.
And then they hate ME for interfering with the weird masturbatory pleasure they get from believing the TV and hating Trump.
Then I tell them that the legitimate reason to hate Trump is his support for the toxic vaxx, and they hate me even more because they took and promoted the vaxx themselves.
wow! very well said. the bleach comment came from chlorine dioxide, which I'm researching online how to have it in my home kit for health. It's a very simple blood cleanser type homeopathy....but you'll be wasting your breath trying to tell anyone about it. Also...'the weird masturbatory pleasure' you mention is how I view the derranged pedo's when they witness utter destruction: obama, gates, fauxci, francis collins, trudeau, pelosi (j6) etc... they have no regard for human emotion b/c they are demons.
Also his mention of light as a disinfectant - maybe sunlight/vitamin D, but they are also using a blue light inserted into the nostrils before surgeries at the University of British Columbia to kill bacteria that cause super bug infections. This has been going on for years - I often wonder if it may have been able to be used as a standard procedure for patients coming into the hospital to prevent transmission. Certainly the media “warped” very “speedily” anything Trump mentioned with regards to prevention or treatment since they never could get that Emergency Authorization for the injections had that been available.
And he was just repeating possible therapy ideas he was told by his experts.
Yes they completely deformed what he said into something entirely different.
"Fine people on both sides "
KB - you can buy it from pet/animal stores it’s called MicrosynAH & sold as a gel or liquid or spray. It’s excellent. The AH stands for animal health.
It’s in the same forbidden category as ivermectin. It works well, but the US forbids it for humans.
you use that orally or just topically? what did you use it for? I want for viral --flu covid and even water purification if prepping. still confused if it has to be 2 parts mixed at ingestion to be potent or if bottles like this Animal spray are stable
Safe for use anywhere on or in the body. Nasal spray, eye wash, gargle, cuts, sores, douche, enema. . It's pure ClO2 so do not mix - Use straight. Stable in a cool, dark pantry but it does expire. Not for prepper survival since it expires. Not for water purification. It kills microbes. It's the best and strongest I have found, especially good as a nasal spray.
We've been pretty devote users of Chlorine Dioxide. There's a couple of good channels on Telegram if you have questions. The Universal Antidote Videos Chat and MMS Drinking Buddy. Lots of people like CDS better but we prefer MMS. PureWaterWorld.com is where we've purchased it. Also Jim Humble's book MMS Health Recovery Guidebook is very informative.
lolol. so frustrating.
They're better off masturbating in public. That's about as "self aware" as they'll ever get.
Amen!
I still don't understand why DJT continued pushing the jabs... And now that we have (I was gonna' say "living" ...) dying proof that Big Pharma, its supporters and promoters are not IN THE LEAST interested in the horrendous toll taken... I feel like he, Trump, must come out with an explanation and an apology.
I will vote for him, because I believe he's the best man for the job. I pray for him to be safe, well and WISE, and to be led by prayer and good counsel.
(a sincere apology would serve him well)
I agree that a sincere apology would serve him well, but I'm afraid he has taken far more money from the criminals at Pfizer than just the $1M for his 2016 inauguration.
Trump looks very corrupt while he keeps lying about the dangerous and worse than ineffective toxxine.
I agree and have listened to him in the past... But I don't like some of the things he says or rather his reasoning e.g. I don't doubt there is a chemical turning the frogs gay as Alex Jones puts it that RFJ said is in the food supply BUT that is NOT why EVERYONE AT ALL LEVELS is pushing transgenderism! RFK is no doubt smart but still seems to miss what is really going on.......
crikey
I know RFK is Catholic, but I did hear him refer to God as he/she in a talk. Gave me pause.
🤔
Is he? I think he is better described as "spiritual," which is one word he used to describe Shanahan.
Perhaps, but praying the Rosary beads each day also makes him religious. For Catholics and Orthodox, prayer ropes and beads are for very strong prayer. 🙏✝️🙏
I find it odd that Jesus did not teach His Disciples to pray that way and in fact He commanded them NOT to but you'd have to read your Bible and look for those commands instead of fearing your religion's damnation vs God's or rejection by friends and family. There's a verse about that too. You must be born again.
The Church which is "the Body of Christ" and which decided (pre schism) what to include in the Bible suggest prayer ropes (Orthodox) and beads (Catholic). Simply reading the Bible is not sufficient. Recall the story of the Ethiopian eunuch in the Acts who, when asked if he understood what he was reading in the Bible (book of Isaiah), wondered “How can I, unless someone guides me?” That's where the Church comes in and explains thing to us. Sola Scripture is a very protestant way of thinking. Remember, Christianity is not a buffet where we are free to pick and chose what we believe.
Simply reading the Bible is not sufficient as also congregating with other believers who read the Bible. Follow those who actually follow the Bible and not one man. The Pope is a man made power usurped by disgruntled "Christian" Pharisees who got put down when the Apostles confronted their legalism and works based Salvation. Your lady is a figment of their power grab and coffer buffer. Check Catholic history for yourself. They act of their own accord. They sell salvation. Many men do in the name of Christ.
The Holy Spirit is the souls guide to scripture
It is a tenet of Protestant Christianity that scripture *IS* sufficient to salvation, though not sufficient to understand every deep facet of theology. (And as a corollary, that scripture is capable of being sufficiently understood by an ordinary person to reach that 'necessary' level to be saved.)
However, thoughtful Protestants would agree that many things outside the Scripture, including the Church both as a whole and as a local congregation, are helpful in understanding the full depth of scripture, and in supporting believers in the practical application of daily faith.
Things like beads / prayer ropes fall more into that latter, practical category, though I'm inclined to think that the idea of making "stronger" prayers is difficult to align with the teachings of scripture. It seems to me that the stronger prayer is the prayer most in line with the will of God, and little to do with the manner in which it is prayed.
If one is not understanding the Bible, they are either unsaved or deceived by the devil's lies which are abundant in the professing churches. There is instruction (doctrine) from the Lord as to how to come unto the knowledge of the truth for a saved member of the body of Christ (1 Tim. 2:4, kjb) but the devil has the truth hidden:
2 Tim. 2:7 Consider what I (Apostle Paul) say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
The Lord tells us who he sent to us in this dispensation of the grace of God with the gospel of our salvation and doctrine for the Church, the body of Christ by which we are to be edified; that is the Apostle Paul.
If a man is not following Paul as he followed Christ, then he is to be rejected as a teacher.
2 Tim. 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

PLEASE STOP THE PROSLETYZING!
Free speech here. I agree with her.
I don't agree with her but I agree with your comment.
You don't have to. We all follow Christ in different ways.
That is what is important.
How can we follow Christ in different ways? That just doesn't make sense. There is Only One Christ. There's only ONE WAY. He says so Himself. He also said you MUST be born again AND He never told the disciples to collect little rocks, pearls, markers and recite repeat many words over and over to Mary. NEVER EVER! In fact Jesus Christ Himself condemned it. Please step out of your fears and into the truth. We do not follow the same....The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it. And they shall say to you, Lo, there! Lo, here! go not away, nor follow after them...Lk 17:22-23
Fyi if you trust in the Lady Mary Fatima whoever they are not Christ. They are leading you away.
🎯
Because you didn't try to proseletyze? Because you don't want to hear what the Bible actual says? I thought as a Christian you'd be very interested. Perhaps we follow a different Christ.
Did you know that Easter is pagan?
He died as the PASSOVER Lamb. He died on Passover.
He rose three days later, not 1-1 1/2 days later as the CC teaches.
lol. You say Jesus says don’t pray rote prayer but then he gave us the Our Father. Which as far as I know all Christian’s pray no matter their particular denomination. Hmmm. How can any kind of prayer be bad? Better reread Jesus’ words and make sure you are not inserting your own for his.
My understanding MAY BE WRONG but I believe Jesus said this is “HOW we should pray” as an example; not that we should pray this exact prayer, or pray it repeatedly in exact form. I think rote prayer is not an honest & personal relationship with God the Father. JMO of course.
Saying that, I love the “Our Father” prayer. Matthew 6:9. It’s my guide to prayer, first giving God the glory and acknowledging His will, not mine, be done. ✝️
RJ, that is because Jesus was Jewish.
You mean Jewish not Roman Catholic so His teachings dont apply to other religions that claim He is Savior/God/Creator? Or others that claim His Name but didn't believe what He claimed, and proved, about Himself?
Jesus spoke the words of the Creator which apply to the universe which he created - with words. God spoke Hebrew. Then the Tower of Babel. Return to the original Bible in Hebrew and that is what Jesus taught. I agree with you.
He was kidnapped and murdered by the Roman Ponius Pilate while he attended a Jewish passover dinner which this year is on April 22, the true anniversary of the murder of the Jew, Jesus.
I pray the Rosary every day as Our Lady requested at Fatima. Has given me much peace of mind and more awareness of God’s love.
🙏🌹🙏🩷
Where did you hear he was praying the rosary daily? If this is true it's a wonderful wonderful thing. Our Lady offers so much protection!
I followed him on Instagram. and have listened to him in interviews for atleast two years now.. I believe that he said it.
It’s a start! One never knows what may turn a heart toward God.
He is for the most part a practicing Catholic just like his two parents. I can’t help believing that in his heart. he is pro life, even though he claims to be in favor of choice. I attribute that public stance to his lifelong ties to the Democrat party, and to his far left, not very intelligent or funny Hollywood wife.
Except he doesn’t think God controls the environment and he definitely doesn’t think God makes the babies… or he wouldn’t be so adamant for pro-choice
He is pro abortion…Christian? Thou shall not kill…kinda important
I came to the same conclusion. Looks like he is a good guy after all, looking to pull votes mainly from the pretendadent.
Agree with you 100%. Gonna watch this play out.
Well, that was quite the deluge of new information on RFK Jr and Shanahan! Thank you, CS.
Ahhhh...revenge. Of course, how did I miss that? It's perfect.
The Dems Presidential Gala raised a record $25mm last night in NYC. Not enough millions to overcome RFK Jr and Trump. The timing of the Gala infuriated millions of law abiding citizens, since the funeral of the slain NYC Police Officer was earlier in the day. The Dems are losing voters fast. They are running out of “smart” ideas but, have a playbook full of nefarious ideas. Buckle up America!
The media has caused me to question everything; including the report of $25M raised. Maybe; maybe not.
On a different note, it's interesting to contemplate the RFK/Kamikaze idea: demo the Dems.
one can only pray they do not use their playbook
Running out of? Did they ever have any? Evil ideas…Satanic ideas…but SMART ideas🤔? Yea….NO.
I’ll do my part and sign the paperwork to get RFK on the ballot. I feel it’s the same strategy as the dems used by supporting Nicki Haley.
RFK and Desantis could be a formidable force in Trump’s cabinet. I view them as taking a wrecking ball to the vampire ball.
No way. Desantis needs to stay in FL and lead the way for Governors
And then make a run for 2028 imo
Love my Gov..don't want him to leave!
How about this one - “do it for the common good” Lol!
almost as bad as "we're all in it together"....BARF
That would be the safe and effective approach!
To “build back better” ….extra BARF 🤢
Lolol
I hope RFK Jr. gets on as many state ballots as he can. He will only take away Biden voters, that's why the DNC now wants him to drop out.
Especially the swing states.
I know they had some sort of strategy planned with the lawyer Aaron Siri and Del Bigtree. Saw it about a year ago with the Twitter post named “working on a strategy”. Local, local, local can only work so much when those agencies in cahoots with Big Pharma continue to endorse. promote and push the unsafe products and punish the medical professionals who are not agreeing with their plans. Perhaps he will get a chance to do the work he wanted to do under Trump. I don’t know anymore 😄What I do know is that God is in charge and with His grace things will change for the better.
Aaron Siri is WONDERFUL.
He’s the one who forced the FDA/Pfizer to release the trial data they planned to hide for 75 YEARS.
Having seen it - via Naomi Wolf’s website - it’s clear why they were hiding it. They documented a mass of injury & death. Very clear they knew it would kill & injure on a massive scale.
I agree about Aaron Siri!! 🤩
I know when he made his announcement for his bid for president, he said something very close to, "They've been censoring me for the last 18 years--they can't censor me anymore now that I'm a candidate for president." He was wrong about that unfortunately. However, maybe the most important thing is his message to wake America up? I know he'd make a great addition to a cabinet post under Trump. He also said, he knows essentially who's who. (My words) I took that essentially to mean, he knows the deep state players. It's way past due to clean house and get our country back. Maybe there is a bigger more divine plan at play? 🙏🏻
I want a president who knows the constitution, knows how to question and get to the truth and can’t be fooled. We know definitely that isn’t Trump. He shut down the country, wasn’t smart enough to dig into the data critically, and brought historic fools to rule us (Fauci/Birx). RDS was our BEST option. The uniparty ended that. Best option is now Kennedy for real change. Trump couldn’t get the wall built, JOINED corrupt Pharma to kneel before public health overlords. Kennedy is all we have for a better future. Trump can’t even admit lockdown failures, vaccine injuries, and RDS WAS RIGHT.
With his choice of a VP candidate, Kennedy has messaged that he will be no different than the current admin, except for his disdain of big pharma. And he won't be able to do anything about that as POTUS.
Ppl certainly have very short and non working memories. Didn't get the wall built? Got a mega amt built before CONGRESS shut the funds down. Locked down the country? How so? Florida wasn't locked down. Neither was Georgia. How'd Trump lock it down? He didn't "bring" us Fauci and Birx. He INHERITED them from Obummer. Doesn't know the Constitution? Have you SEEN the EOs He wrote that are still in effect and in fact, have been extended by the current puppet in office? EOs that go against trafficking, corruption in every legal office, etc. You really should broaden your reading material and go back and refresh your memory.
Florida was locked down. The difference between Trump and DeSantis is that DeSantis recognized his decision was wrong and immediately changed course. Trump was just hoping it would all go away. He took the easy way out.
Hope is simply a substitution for strategy when a biz plan or war plan does not allow for change in tactics when the facts on the ground change.
That said, I'll be voting for him a 3rd time.
Trump did not lock Florida down. I live here. That was a STATE decision by DeSantis to close the beaches for a short time (and then deny he'd done it later on). Churches never locked down unless they did so on their own. Again, our church never closed down for one day. If the county you live in is liberal enough to have done that.....that's a local decision. But TRUMP never made the states lock down. If there's a sound byte out there that I missed where he ordered states to shut down, please post it. Thanks!
I hear ya. But I did not say that Trump initiated the c19 response in FL. Indeed it was DeSantis.
And that's my point.
I moved to Sarasota from CA in May of 20 because I have children. Floridians will never understand how bad it was in the Clampdown states....and people in Clampdown states will never understand what it was like to be free at that time.
His mistake was allowing the 15 days to be extended another 30. Game over.
It was his decision and his decision alone. He has some responsibility.
I share that assessment for the most part. Only point of information that I find necessary to add is his recognition that his decision was wrong was largely driven by his political ambition and calculation.
From those with access inside his policy office and then campaign I interacted with in 2020-2021 DeSantis calculated that the crowded primary field he saw 2024 would be was empty in the "freedom" lane. By planting his ambition's flag in that otherwise unoccupied lane the other hopefuls to the throne would divide the the rest of GOP voters.
His calculation was that freedom seekers were a large enough bloc of voters to outnumber the divided rest of the field in the other GOP lanes that supported pandemic restrictions and mandates (DeWine, Hogan-like R's who were indistinguishable from the Newsome's, Pritzker's and Cuomo/Hochul's).
His political calculation was largely correct. Aside from the glaring miscalculation that Trump would be removed from the field. Which he still may be. But in that light, wrong and right is often arrived at for different reasons by politicians and their calculations. Whether or not their personal convictions align with their decisions.
I agree with this
Trump was pulling teeth to finish the wall. Remember Congress was thwarting him. But he persevered & build a sizeable portion. Enter stage left…O’Biden & wall building ended. In fact materials already there ready to build more sections were sold pennies on the dollar or left to ruin.
To be fair: I remember commenting to my mom at the time that Trump looked sick about shutting down the country. He said that covid was like a flu and he was sure it would dissipate soon. He knew his great economy would suffer with an economic lockdown. He was mocked. harrassed, defamed constantly. He finally had to give in to the 'experts'..and now that we have no medical autonomy from the WHO treaty, things can only get worse with the next leaked bioweapon, no matter who is President..unless Trump gets us out of it.
i doubt you owned a business during that time. try working to build a business for 25 years and then having a good portion of your hard earned wealth swept up in a GIANT SUCKING SOUND OF WEALTH TRANSFER.
and how in the world did he not know how it would all end....i mean the mask alone.
it is no excuse. he did not respect our freedoms.
it's very dangerous to believe a leader is beyond reproach
I am sorry. 😪
Our country is starting to suck, and it doesn't matter who is President..just that the democrats are more than corrupt, they have become satanic.
exactly! And that's why they also use euphemism to make them feel good about how the words sound rather than the evil represented by the grotesque symbolism used to camoflauge wickedness as empathy. perfect example:
"Gender affirming care"
The other side of the same coin is to label people as "anti" this and "anti" that...and DENIER's, etc. etc.
The libs found it fairly easy to roll out child mutilation - sterilizing children - as “gender-affirming care”. They’re treading a bit more carefully with MAPS - “minor-attracted persons”. But...many in western societies think the mutilation is fine, just as they are accepting medical murder (“MAID”). Will people finally wake the hell up as libs tell them it’s great that a 30-year-old is “dating” their small child?
Right?! It's wickedness.
It ain't going away until the middle recognizes we're already in a revolution. We need a counter-revolution.
That starts by informing (easy just point out the idiocracy) the middle/normies that the revolution by The Left started, in earnest, 20 years ago.
I blame the governors for that. They had the power to decide and mostly decided to harm small businesses and freedom.
Yeah but Trump gave them cover.
But don't get me wrong I'm all in on Trump
Well he tried to get places to open up before Easter and got all kinds of grief. I just don’t think he really had the power to do much. And whatever he was for, the blue states would be against. Remember when he said he thought states should lock down, the governors said he couldn’t make them. Then when he wanted to ease up and start reopening, they said they weren’t going to because it wasn’t safe. He had no real enforcement power for whatever he thought should be done on the state level. At least not any he was willing to use, like Biden with Medicare and HHS and federal contractors for the vax mandates.
We're 94% on the same page. good enough for me...:)
no seriously, the inflection point (and what i'm blaming him for) was the day the 15 days was extended for another 30.
arrgh...thar sheeee blows!
I share your frustration. Not that he’s blameless but I feel like it was a damned if you do, damned if you don’t kind of scenario 😕 At the time he got so much pushback for wanting to reopen. Maybe he should’ve just plowed ahead and done what he could to force reopening (not sure that would have worked anyway, if the governors simply refused to reopen), but I am not sure that that wouldn’t have backfired either 😕 But the should’ve would’ves don’t really help us now, do they 😕 What’s done is done, unfortunately.
Trump’s a businessman. In business, when you’re confronted by a problem outside your experience, you consult/hire people who are proven/widely considered to be experts. You don’t build your own IT or security systems - you get experts in. Trump was well aware that virology & epidemiology were way outside his experience. Unfortunately, the obvious “expert” to consult was the (filthy) individual who’d been “managing” public health forever. Yes can imagine Fauci telling him “Mr President, follow my expert advice or millions of Americans will DIE”.
Trump’s instincts were right: there must be treatments (there were); the ‘cure’ (lockdown) can’t be worse than the illness. But again, he had “experts” warning darkly of mass fatalities.
He has opposed injection mandates, which is good. He should - of course - admit he was manipulated to get the mRNA to market. And he should admit their toxicity. Given his personality, he probably won’t. That’s clearly a FLAW - but as long as he continues to support bodily autonomy & certainly if he exits the WHO, he deserves support!
Bless your heart. I would love to see how you would have functioned having all that the demons from hell could throw at you, as it was the enter four years of his presidency as well as his entire campaign. lol. You would have cried the first day.
I have come to the conclusion that ALL the TDS ‘entities’ have come out in force today and will continue to come here to speak ill and spew their vitriol against Trump up until he wins and will continue to do so for his entire 4 years (if they don’t JFK him).
Not one of the people on here disparaging Trump could have accomplished what he did under the circumstances he was operating. Not you or any of these other ‘entities’.
Dude. I'm the biggest Trump supporter your going to find.
Whats the problem. And why are you patronizing me?
“To be fair”…that is what these TDS sufferers will never be able to do. They are lying in claiming Trump is out there bragging and pushing the vaccines.
Where is the evidence for this? He commented on Biden lying in the SOTU. That was not pushing the vaccines!
He wanted to open everything up in time for Easter and got completely bashed for it by almost everyone 😕
Fauci & Co. preceded Trump
Trump was pulling teeth to finish the wall. Remember Congress was thwarting him. But he persevered & build a sizeable portion. Enter stage left…O’Biden & wall building ended. In fact materials already there ready to build more sections were sold pennies on the dollar or left to ruin.
Don't forget Nancy "you have to vote for the bill to read it" Pelosi was too busy impeaching him (and making a show of ripping his speech)
not to mention he tried to fire him
All so said by you is right. And yet I throw up my hands into the air. Like ... what does one do with a brain dead population which does not know the difference been constitutional compliant law and a penguin?
If politics is the art of the possible, then as understate ... we are in an impossible situation. And the smart thing for DJT would be to say nothing on C19, but then clean house after a 2024 win. (But don't count on it or hold your breath!)
Why do you assume RFK can get elected? And why do you assume that if by some chance he COULD get elected, his overall strategies wouldn't be mostly aligned with the Democrats, considering he and his family's lifelong dedication to that party and its principles...principles which are no longer what they were many decades ago. He's a declared Independent because he couldn't get any traction within the D party. If they had allowed him to compete against Biden and succeeded, would you vote for him then? Just something to think about. It's not just the person at the top of the party structure, it's the party underneath and the D party is currently foul and rotten.
Hard pass
I’m so tired of people who have TDS. Who have been blinded by the media and cannot, WILL not hear.
He trusted the hypocrite, back-stabbed Pence. He turned the covid response team over to Pence, as the DEMONS were coming out of the woodwork, trying and succeeding….obviously…..to turn on him. Face it. You already hated him and would have found something to hate him, no matter what.
See a psychologist. Maybe they now have a shot for your TDS.
Rick Rubin has a great interview with her, before she was the choice. She comes across as a thoughtful and intelligent woman who is re-examining her past choices, especially since her child became autistic at the 10 -16 month range. She is self-made, went to school on scholarships, has a very exploratory mind and wants to be sure AI is regulated. Take a look: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tetragrammaton-with-rick-rubin/id1671669052?i=1000650583296
Self-made? Did she mention the confidential divorce settlement from Sergio Brin (co-founder of Google, worth $118B) after she said she "signed the prenuptial under duress" and asked for $1Billion? Brin accused her of having an affair with Elon Musk. I don't think he would've divorced her just on rumor.
You would have to listen to how she grew up in poverty, the company she sold, that she was pregnant when she signed that prenup, etc. If you haven't listened to her ypiu are just going by rumors. Brin is certainly not a trusted source of information.
Hopefully, I know on the HHS appointment. He has the wrong stance on abortion.
Abortion should be one of the easiest political issues to settle. About 70% of the country agrees that abortion should be legal up to around 15 weeks. The two extremes (abortion up to and even right after birth, and no abortion under any circumstances) just won't allow this.
State issue. Period
I would like to see where the 70% stat you mentioned came from.
This has been covered quite a bit. This is from a gallup poll. It mentions first trimester (13 weeks), but I've heard the 15 week timeframe discussed a lot too.
"When asked about the legality of abortion at different stages of pregnancy, about two-thirds of Americans say it should be legal in the first trimester (69%), while support drops to 37% for the second trimester and 22% for the third. Majorities oppose abortion being legal in the second (55%) and third (70%) trimesters."
https://news.gallup.com/poll/321143/americans-stand-abortion.aspx
Neil, I'm sorry, I read the stats wrong - I thought you said 70% are ok with 2nd and 3rd trimester abortion. But honestly I trust Gallup as much as I trust the FDA, CDC, NIH or Fauci, because Gallup doesn't show what sample size or detail of people they polled, and liberal MSM relies on their legacy as the longest running polling organization to push a narrative. The typical sample size for a Gallup poll, either a traditional stand-alone poll or one night's interviewing from Gallup's Daily tracking, is 1,000 national adults with a margin of error of ±4 percentage points. I had to go dig for that because it's not in the link posted. I'm no statistician, but I can't believe they can actually scale a 1,000 person poll to the population of this entire country without pushing their own internal agenda (Gallup's CFO Taek is also a member of the "CFO Coalition Leadership Group for the United Nations Global Compact"). I wish there was a better way to "trust but verify."
Gallup is one source. While I didn't log the sources as I have read them, over the last 5 years or so there seems to have emerged a pretty clear consensus - about 70% of people in the US agree that abortion should be legal up to around 15 weeks.
I don’t think 70% agree with the 15 week legality, but better to get a small win than no win at all
15 weeks. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WmYFGTR3XSU
I think the Republicans did not have a better midterm election in 2022 because the demoncrats used this issue to successfully hammer the Republicans
It's has always been a major hammer against the Republicans. When I was a young early 20-something in college in the early 1970s, I had a brain full of naive mush and I remember being all whipped up about the abortion issue, so they were using it then. I guess that was right about when Roe v Wade was being decided, so it was definitely a major issue on the college campuses then. I don't recall there being much talk about time limits, 15 weeks or any other, but it was just the "right" of it all.
Have you heard her acceptance speech?
The speech was incredible! She is a winner.
This Rick Rubin interview of her is very revealing of her depth https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tetragrammaton-with-rick-rubin/id1671669052?i=1000650583296
The poor woman was unable to say the word, vaccine or vaccination. The closest she could come was to say “wrong to give shot upon shot”.
Maybe she isn't as anal about medical language as you are, being a lawyer.
Maybe we're both lawyers.
Maybe it's hard to admit and accept when a parental decision results in a Lifetime of Regret.
Maybe the issue is emotion not semantics.
For the life of me, and from the start, I could make zero sense out of the entire RFK thing form the get-go. But Lawyer Childers' excellent analysis today crosses all tees and dots the eyes.
One has to have some first hand experience in order to understand how things 'work' at the very, very top. And if anyone does, it would certainly be some members of the Kennedy clan. As it, the RFK thing is the Perfect Spoiler with a rider of adding votes to Trump. I find aother comments here intriguing as well.
Lawyer Childers is correct. The Radicals are ruthless, they are cunning ... but they are not smart.
If you're not smart, you have to be ruthless.
This is true as you say it. I should add that 'they' are not smart, in large part, because 'they' lack wisdom.
Also they have to rely on greedy people who are not smart to do their dirty work. Which generally messes things up.
I think people are overthinking this a bit. She has a lot of money and she shares his political views. They are both dyed-in-the-wool leftists, socialists actually. RFK was never taking votes from DJT. He was taking them from the current fake "President." This will only buttress what was already happening, helping him to stay in the race longer, if it has any effect at all. Meaning, I don't see very many more people voting for RFK b/c of his VP pick, especially when they are so aligned politically and ideologically and she really brings nothing new to the table other than money. If she were a "right" leaning person, she could expand his base. But she's not, so she does nothing to expand his base.
I've been following RFK Jr. for more than a year, and he has been presenting himself as a center-moderate liberal. Because of that, he would likely end up taking votes from moderate conservatives and classical liberals - who are part of Trumps voting bloc, but not part of his MAGA base. I am one of those classic liberals (I often call myself a JFK democrat, which now make me a rabid, extreme right winger). With this VP pick, my guess is that almost all of those moderate conservatives and classic liberals will stick with Trump.
There were a lot of hard left democrats (which is most of them now) who would not have voted for RFK Jr. I think many of them now will.
my read on the situation, fwiw...
Maybe he thinks she will get him votes from -young people,
-women,
-Asians,
-moms of autisms.
He is the old white man, her opposite .
That's a great point. For those same reasons, I hope Trump picks Tulsi. The constituency he polls worst with is white collar professional, high education, women. She might help peel off a few of those.
I was out walking and had a thought: it sure looks like somebody or some group within our system is deep stating the deep state. I mean, this is exactly what the deep state has done for 80 yrs or whatever. Triangulate out any real alternatives. Set it up so that no matter who wins the election, they always get their guy. W/Gore, W/Kerry, Obama/McCain, Obama/Romney, Hillary/Jeb. None of these were/would have been genuine choices b/w differing candidates. Same policies, different clothes and style. Trump threw a wrench in it b/c they didn't expect him to win by the margins he did.
But, it sure looks like someone is setting it up so that we now have 2 anti-establishment candidates triangulating out the establishment candidate. IDK, maybe I'm looking too hard at this. Maybe I'm nuts. But it seems like Trump and RFK just keep finding monetary and "official" "respectable people" support despite all the attempts to marginalize and remove them from the race. I don't think I've seen that happen before.
Interesting take……
I read that Kennedy is really setting himself up for 2028 because as of now, there are no viable candidates for either party. And because she has lots of $$$$ for the war( election) coffers.
sounds like what Ross Perot did back against Bush that gave us Clinton ... Obama ... Brandon
Please explain. Been awhile. Forgot..Peter GL
Ross Perot ran as independent against Clinton and Bush. He siphoned more votes out of Bush than Clinton. That put Clinton in power. Later that brought Obama in power, which in turn have given us BRANDON!!! YAY
TY, I remember. Wonder. Would Bush have been better. Feel both were poor choice.
Take the logical progression, would we have been in our current sad state had Bush won? Nobody knows, and it makes no difference now. We are here now and cannot change the past, just move forward with the pitiful choices we are given
Trump will never pick him. I'll vote for Trump for a 3rd time but I will never forget he did not respect my freedom.
RFK is a threat to his blathering about how many lives he saved with the miracle juice.
I agree.
Trump can't stand to admit he was wrong about anything. So RFK is a non-starter for Trump.
It sure looks like it’s because of her money.
And, frankly, they share political views. RFK is a leftist. He always has been. The anti-vax sentiment originally came from the left. He's a big gov't person: a gov't should be involved in every issue, every decision, every aspect of life kind of person. So is she. Even before this pick every poll showed RFK was pulling votes from "Joe Biden" not DJT. It all makes total sense.
Makes sense to me.
