The playwrights of yore had a neat way of resolving sticky plots: when it seemed all was lost among the confounded mortals on stage, a supernatural figure would descend from the riggings above the proscenium, lowered in a basket on a cable — Moliere liked to use an actor playing Louis XIV, his patron — to resolve, untangle, forgive, and pardon all the complications of the story. This device is known as the Deus ex Machina, God in a machine.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) announced last week that ex-Special Counsel Robert Mueller has agreed to descend from on-high into the witness chair of Mr. Nadler’s House committee chamber on July 17, presumably to resolve all the conundrums left by his semi-inconclusive RussiaGate report. Remember, in his nine-minute homily on May 29, Mr. Mueller said that if called to testify, he would only answer by referring to the text of his report — hallowed in Wokesterdom until its disappointing release.
Mr. Mueller’s notion of testimony-by-script is at least as unorthodox as his innovation of pronouncing the object of his criminal inquiry “not exonerated,” an unprecedented and certainly extra-legal spin to the prosecutorial standard of finding an indictable offense or not — without added aspersions, insinuations, and defamations. Meanwhile, Mr. Mueller’s standing as a potent God figure has eroded badly. He started out in 2017 as the Avenging Angel in a Brooks Brothers suit, morphed into Yahweh as the RussiaGate Mob patiently awaited his Last Judgment, and then got demoted to mere Sphinx-hood after his Sacred Text failed its basic task: to oust the Golden Golem of Greatness from his unholy occupation of the White House.
Did Mr. Nadler summon Mr. Mueller from beach or lake-side to just recite chapter and verse from his report? What would be the point of that? Well, perhaps to whip up enough media froth to refresh the public’s memory of how Comrade Trump stole the 2016 election at the bidding of his Russian handlers. Is that all? Could be. The problem is that Mr. Nadler’s majority Democrat members are not the only ones who get to ask questions. Did the Chairman forget that? Or did he think the minority — including Reps. Collins, Jordan, Gohmert, and Gaetz — would just lob softballs at the witness?
I can think of a few 90-mph sliders I’d like to pitch to Mr. Mueller, some of them already floated in the press: like, why did you allow the GI cell phones of Peter Strzok and Lisa Page to be destroyed shortly after you were informed about their unprofessional and compromising text exchanges, for which they were fired off your “team?” When did you learn that international men-of-mystery Stefan Halper and Josef Mifsud, whose operations spurred your prosecutions, were not Russian agents but rather in the employ of US and British government intel agencies? Your deputy, Andrew Weissmann, was informed by Deputy Attorney General Bruce Ohr in the summer of 2016, months before your appointment, that the predicating documents for your inquiry, known as the Steele Dossier, amounted to a Clinton campaign oppo research digest — when did he happen to tell you that? You devoted nearly 20 pages of your report to the Trump Tower meeting between the president’s son, Donald, Jr., and two Russians, lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya and lobbyist Rinat Akhmetshin. Why did you omit to mention that both Russians were in the employ of Glenn Simpson’s Fusion GPS company, candidate Clinton’s oppo research contractor, and met with Mr. Simpson both before and after the Trump Tower meeting? How did it happen that you hired attorney Jeannie Rhee for your team, knowing that she had previously worked as a lawyer for the Clinton Foundation? Under what legal standard did you pronounce Mr. Trump to be “not exonerated” in the obstruction of justice matter, considering you told the Attorney General, Mr. Barr, that it was not based on findings by the DOJ Office of Legal Counsel concerning presidential immunity from indictment?
The public has been well-distracted by the Democratic Party primary circus, and all reporting about the aftermath of RussiaGate has vanished from the front pages of the news media. Ostensibly, Hillary Clinton is enjoying her solitary walks in the Chappaqua woods and all seems well in the Deep State world. Yet, consider that wild things lurk in those thickets. The DOJ Inspector General, Mr. Horowitz, is overdue with his own report — perhaps stymied by a lack of cooperation in wringing declassified documents from the hands of the many intel agencies involved… while Mr. Barr and his deputy, John Durham, are at work in the background on their own investigation. There will also be repercussions upcoming in the matter of General Flynn, who switched attorneys recently and may be reconsidering his guilty plea based on Mr. Mueller’s prosecutorial misconduct in withholding exculpatory evidence from Judge Emmet Sullivan’s court.
It’s just possible that Robert Mueller will not be reading chapter and verse from his sacred report, like an old-school Episcopal priest, but rather pleading the Fifth Amendment to avert his own potential prosecution.

Id like Jim to talk more about inflation.
Food costs are insane.
Meanwhile, during Pride MONTH,
PENNSYLVANIAS-FIRST-OPENLY-GAY-REPRESENTATIVE-ATTACKS-ELDERLY-WOMAN-PRAYING-IN-FRONT-OF-PLANNED-PARENTHOOD
I agree inflation is off the chart, the problem is that the government makes the charts!
Yes, and CPI is changed to make things look much better than reality would show us.
Look at the Chapwood Index – a true measure of inflation. Annual rates of inflation, 8% to 13%, based upon locale.
Using rule of 72, and an average annual rate of inflation of 9%, prices double every 8 years.
Wages, flat to down over last 30 years, with true cost of goods doubling every 8 years – that feeling of being in a vise, not hard to figure out.
RA.
You know Jim does not like to be told to write about. Writers are finicky that way. Jim wants everyone to know that he thinks there is something behind the p-tape allegations or not behind them or something like that. How could we ever know.
WTF are you talking about K-Dog? This isn’t about P-tapes. Get your head screwed on — JHK Admin
To believe one way or another would be taking a position sans evidence which shows you crazy catch-22 style. Whatever, as long as real issues are not discussed and Trump and the Dems can continues to game the system and extract value for themselves all is good it seems. The existing arrangement hobbles another few paces down eternities path.
Except for the K-Dog Interview there does not seem to be anything special going on.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXswX7zFqvc&t=244s
And with that I’ll exit stage left.
And here I thought the article would be about Blob one, descending off of Airforce 1, waddling arm in arm with lil’ Kim, saving the World from Armageddon as he caves to accepting that NK has nukes and plans to keep them; just two days after caving to Big Xi on Tariffs and Wauwei.
No, it’s about Mueller and Hillary. Again. In case you haven’t noticed, that ship has already sunk after striking the iceberg of anger and ignorance that elected Trump, or kinda elected Trump.
This is what Collapse looks like: Bogus economics, delusions, spiralling debt, lack of leadership, rising inequality, anger, and focusing on the trivial and what no longer matters.
LGBTQ, desperate political gambits, and additional nonsense that will never be implemented let alone paid for, will all be forgotten as USA continues its descent into hell, all the while proclaiming how great everything is, and how just and fair this rigged rule of law State really is. I always laugh at the MSM meme of USA Justice and human rights, while imprisoning more of its population by percentage than anywhere else on Earth. And NSA keeps trucking along while trump distracts and lines up the elite for an expanded trough.
Trump is a metaphor for how the World sees the USA; fat, lazy, crooked, ignorant, loud, bombastic, smug, and stupid. Got preps?
Looks like JHK has picked up another Social Media Agent. Does JHK really represent such a threat to National Security that his blog must be monitored by what ever security agency you work for. Keep posting but we know who you are now.
Social Media Agent – that is a good way to put it.
Will the real Social Media Agents please go …. ………. .
JHK’s admin has been on me once today. I’ll just leave the dots and let you fill in the blanks.
Why him. That is a question.
Huh do tell.
Wow! Delusions of grandeur much? Independent thinkers who don’t think as you do much be paid agents pushing an agenda, because you guys are so subversive and living dangerously with your same-old, same-old whining about Hillary. Get over yourself.
@tiredofthetreadmill
While I agree with your sentiment the truth is there are programs were people are paid money to post or control bots that do in order to steer the public belief systems.
At least one called operation sockpuppet as far as I know that was defunded after Obama left office.

Fun stuff huh?
@ benr
Undoubtedly true and it goes without saying in this country where lies, spin, deceit and marketing BS are standard operating procedures. But it is lame to label everyone who might disagree with you as one of these paid trolls. Such tactics, usually employed by conservatives who seem to have that whole persecuted christian victim thing going on, are for simpletons.
Nice post. I feel the same as you about reading here anymore. Once I come across the words Mueller or Hillary in anything Jim writes these days, I just stop reading. Good for Jim, and apparently plenty of angry posters here, for their endless devotion to giving a shit about the political deck chair arrangement as this ship sinks ever lower.
I had no clue that a woman like Hillary could absolutely captivate such a large segment of our population. But it is on display here every Monday and Friday. It reminds me of silly country songs and guys in their 30’s who still can’t get over the girl who turned them down for their senior prom.
It’s the idea that people like her can get away with anything that you and I would land in jail for.
Yes. Apparently the tiresome ONLY example we have in this country.
@tott
Name another one that anyone is going to know.
Worse name another one that is as patently deep state crooked as crooked Hildabeast?
She’s simply a very visible and recent example TOTT. Please feel free to post other not-so-tired “examples” for us should you wish to educate the masses.
Let’s see…how about Dick Cheney and his puppet GW who got us into billion dollar wars we can’t seem to get out of and killed how many? Oh wait, that’s too ancient of history for our ADD society. Besides, they had Rs behind their names on the ballot and it’s a war thing so we don’t question it.
What about the unaccounted $billions (trillions?) Regularly missing and unaccounted for in the Pentagon’s budget on a regular basis? I guess there’s no readily available face to put on that one so let’s forget about it too.
Let’s see…the wall street parasites who bilked tax payers for billions what blow free market smoke up our asses…
Gee, I guess really can’t come up with any examples that’ll fit your criteria. My mistake. Apparently Hillary really is the cause of all our troubles.
“Let’s see…how about Dick Cheney and his puppet GW who got us into billion dollar wars we can’t seem to get out of and killed how many? ” -tott
You do realize Hillary Clinton voted to go to Iraq?
So again we have a nexus of Hillary being hip deep in something.
82 Democrats in the house said yes as well as 29 in the senate so gee it was not all evil people with R’s behind their names. Yes it is ancient history some of which you have forgotten it would appear.
Sens. Baucus (D-MT), Bayh (D-IN), Biden (D-DE), Breaux (D-LA), Cantwell (D-WA), Carnahan (D-MO), Carper (D-DE), Cleland (D-GA), Clinton (D-NY), Daschle (D-SD), Dodd (D-CT), Dorgan (D-ND), Edwards (D-NC), Feinstein (D-CA), Harkin (D-IA), Hollings (D-SC), Johnson (D-SD), Kerry (D-MA), Kohl (D-WI), Landrieu (D-LA), Lieberman (D-CT), Lincoln (D-AR), Miller (D-GA), Nelson (D-FL), Nelson (D-NE), Reid (D-NV), Rockefeller (D-WV), Schumer (D-NY), and Torricelli (D-NJ).
I suppose you want to jail all the above or does the fact they have a D behind their name absolve them of the sin??
Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists
Also had many key Democrats signed onto it!
“What about the unaccounted $billions (trillions?) Regularly missing and unaccounted for in the Pentagon’s budget on a regular basis? I guess there’s no readily available face to put on that one so let’s forget about it too. ” -tott
Seems we already have a group of people who are to hold those using federal funds to account which also includes a fair amount of them Democrats you so love.
“Let’s see…the wall street parasites who bilked tax payers for billions what blow free market smoke up our asses…” -tott
Oh you mean the ones Obama loved so much he threw billions of tax payer dollars at?
Seems you have a serious problem of who can you trust?
You seem to think I am defending Hillary, Obama and Dems. I am not sure why. Perhaps it’s an internet anger thing or the whole conservative thing where a person who doesn’t think as you do must be a Hillary lovin’, Obama lovin’ snowflake. Only black or white in that world. I prefer to cover the full spectrum of coruption, not just one side of it. But hey, keep on building that straw man and kicking his ass. It’s fun to watch.
I get it, we’ve been so conditioned to play the lesser evil game by the owners of this place that it’s easy to fall into that trap.By all means, keep on tearing up Hillary, Obama and the dems if it makes you feel better. No skin off my back. I’ll just check in on occasion to see how the asylum inmates are doing with their Hillary obsession.
@tott
Do I think you are a Hillary fan no I had read that you were not just several posts above.
It’s all a house of cards get one conviction and they all start ratting each other out.
Hillary at this point is the Gordian knot to slice at if she gets a trial and loses the entire house of cards falls and real change might just happen.
If Trump falls it ends there and Washington goes back to the good ol club and the swamp goes back to complete control by K street enticements.
You stop reading because you know a plethora of facts on one of, if not the, largest scandals in US political history is being condensed into digestible and easy-to-understand tidbits for the more intelligent readers of this fine blog.
Not just “imprisoning more of its population by percentage than anywhere else” but in total too.
As always amerika leads the way, down.
It also has, compared to other OECD countries, the lowest literacy and the highest perinatal & infant mortality rates, the highest spend for the lowest overall medical care and the worst welfare system.
Not forgetting the biggie, a higher military expenditure than the rest of the world put together.
YAY!
You’ve been a very bad and unruly dog today! [Swats with newspaper and gives stern look.]
Perhaps Doggie Boy needs a shorter leash.
It’s all that hair in the summertime. Can’t pant fast enough to keep himself cool.
I’m talking about it all being reality optional. P-tape is comedic because this whole thing is dark comedy. There is no way an average America can know the truth in any of this. So to that I say you should not believe any of it. Some people have trouble suspending belief, I don’t.
Sent from my damn iphone as my internet is mysteriously down.
I try not to dabble too much in reality. It really is true that combined with idle hands, minds, and hearts ( there’s a lot of those around these days!), it’s the playground of the… uh… err… devil, myself.
The boss sure did get a burr in his short-cloths but he did ask me to clarify. The title today ‘Stagecraft’ sort of makes my point. It is all ‘Much Ado About Nothing’.
A bit ominous too: stagecraft suggests successful deception.
As Aldous Huxley said, Reality is that which people can’t take too much of. The reason why drugs and alcohol were invented.
You’re not wrong to focus on this. Our whole power system could be run on Uric Acid. It’s simple really, but the world does not deserve so I will not reveal it.
Mysteriously? Like hell – they are fucking with you again. My system is working fine!
Stage left is right. God has two hands, Kdog. There’s a whole nother side of Reality out there. Exit state right some time and SEE.
Oh, great stuff K-Dog!
But tell me,please, is that screenshot of you or the curator of Collapse Chronicles?
moi
Re the picture of K-Dog from a couple of days ago:
I notice Dog was standing in front of a bookcase and all the books had those Dewey Decimal System tags on them. So my question is this, Dog, are you in a public library or is it your own bookshelf and you are a very organized guy?
That is correct malthuss, the real important issues, at least to the loony left, are all centered around sexual issues just as Cory Booker reminded us, such as abortion rights for African American trans-sexuals! Jim Kunstler has a long list of what we all might believe are serious miscarriages of justice, but none of them matter at all to the swinging dicks in jockstraps strutting down the main streets of urban America.
If Booker would come out as a Tranny he might have a chance. Future political prisoners may well have this procedure done without their consent.
Link?
I’d like to see get back to topics on which he’s more fully informed. Jim suffers from confirmation bias just as do we mere mortals. Jim’s filter bubble has him equate the alleged email scandal of the Clinton campaign to the rest of Trump’s activities before and after he became commander-in-chief.
Heckler likes history, he might get a kick out of this,

Once in awhile VFW mag has stories like that.

I hope the Republicans on the committee who will be questioning Mueller use your questions, even if they don’t give you credit. I’m sure they will be more intelligent and to the point than any they or their staffs come up with on their own. The exception might be Justin Amash, who would be on the opposite side of the issue.
By the way, a happy drum corps Canada Day to all of your readers from north of the border! I’m sure they’re watching the events on this side of the border with emotions ranging from wry amusement to dread.
Last week, I asked that the readers here would wish me luck because it was time to make a couple of drinking games. I got a less than enthusiastic reaction, with at least one reader calling it a distraction. Why, thank you, that’s exactly what it was intended to be. It turned out that I found four drinking games already, but no drinks to go along with them. Since I didn’t feel like re-inventing the wheel, but also wanted to fill an empty niche, I suggested drinks for all the candidates in the debates, both Wednesday and Thursday/A>. I plan on being a good environmentalist and recycling them for this month’s debates in Detroit.
I apologize for that Neon Vincent. I wasn’t in a drinking game type of mood when I came across your post last week and so I told you so. But you know that old cliché’ what a difference a day makes. Let alone a week! So now I propose you add grape Everclear jello shots to your game somewhere. But imbibe carefully!!!! Too many and you might not know which game you’re playing or where you’re playing it at ;-).
No problem, SoftStarLight. All is forgiven. I’ll see about adding Everclear jello shots to the next set of recipes. I think Mike Gravel would be a good candidate for them, pun intended.
Thank you, Neon, from the CACA land! FYI, on Canada Day we do not watch events in the South. We gather in backyards, on verandas, balconies, rooftops, drink beer and babble about kids, exes and house pets until we become completely incoherent.
Thank you, Neon Vincent. Mine was fine, spent with good friends.
And I wish a happy Fourth of July to you all as well. I have two requests to Americans on the fourth. First, don’t set any fires. 🙂 Second, get back to work updating my habitual websites first thing on Friday. That is all.
So they’re basically going to reruns until the fall lineup comes out. It’s July now, so that sounds about right. Besides, the NFL will be firing up shortly, so no one will be paying attention to any of this shit either way in another month or two anyway. The smell of Labor Day barbecues and partially spent jet fuel raining down from the low level flyovers is already in the air!
Did Mr. Nadler summon Mr. Mueller from beach or lake-side to just recite chapter and verse from his report? What would be the point of that? Well, perhaps to whip up enough media froth to refresh the public’s memory of how Comrade Trump stole the 2016 election at the bidding of his Russian handlers. Is that all?
Reminds me of a local TV show I watch growing up called Jean’s Story Time, wherein a soft-voiced matronly type would read little morality tale stories to us young kiddies, which would be illustrated on camera by some nice, uncontroversial pencil drawings by a studio artist. One can only imagine the wokester horror stories such a format would produce today. Regardless, I think we Baby Boomers are rapidly regressing to our infancy once again, even before we reach the shitting in our Depends adult diapers stage, very possibly due to the manifest horrors we’ve unleashed throughout our lifetimes. Problem is, it appears we’ve infected the younger generations with our insanity as well, as they’re no longer experiencing any semblance of rational adulthood whatsoever.
Don’t fool yourself even with Mr. Trump pumping the brakes towards some conflict in the Middle East or Venezuela our military is ramping up readiness, the media is all but beating the drums and both sides of the aisle are as well.
Living near a marine air station the sorties are now daily where as they used to be once in awhile and I have it on good authority that many are being told to get their affairs in order for lengthy deployments.
Hey, perpetual war is just what we DO now! Time to try out some of that new/old fangled 2000’s era tech to see how poorly it performs, the better to funnel a few $T more to the contractors to design some new 2020 era shit that costs even more and performs even worse. It’ll be ka-ching, ka-ching, all the way down boys!
The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter! Look what you get for around a $100,000,000 a copy!!! Made in the USA!!!
“Over the past several years, U.S. Defense Department leaders have gone from citing technical problems as their biggest concern for the F-35 program to bemoaning the expense of buying and sustaining the aircraft.
But the reality may be worse. According to documents exclusively obtained by Defense News, the F-35 continues to be marred by flaws and glitches that, if left unfixed, could create risks to pilot safety and call into question the fighter jet’s ability to accomplish key parts of its mission:
F-35B and F-35C pilots, compelled to observe limitations on airspeed to avoid damage to the F-35’s airframe or stealth coating. Cockpit pressure spikes that cause “excruciating” ear and sinus pain. Issues with the helmet-mounted display and night vision camera that contribute to the difficulty of landing the F-35C on an aircraft carrier.
Gotta keep her throttled down as the old hag can’t handle too much speed!!! So sad. JDH
Ol’ Scratch, Jdhines
Both correct.
A basic flaw in US thinking. Trying to put more faith in hardware and software systems instead of the computer between the pilot’s ears has reached a point of diminishing returns. This is such a disgusting example of lobbyist bureaucratic Deep State activity.
Incredibly, Mr Rogers wasn’t apparently gay or if he was he didn’t know it. Staff reports that he was somewhat conservative and had to be schooled on these issues, which he accepted humbly.
Robert Mueller is playing the same game as the Deep State – he is trying to get the Golden Golem out of office or spoil his re-election.
Robert Mueller is a vaunted member of the Deep State, he was appointed by Deep State regulars and used Deep State soldiers for his investigation.
I do hope the Nadler meetings rip the guts out of the Deep State.
One guy? Never going to happen. The Deep State is much deeper than you or I know.
True!
The Deep State is global!
It has components in all the developed nations. It is trying to tear down all nationalist countries around the world. Our Leftist move in the US is bought and paid for by this international gang of thieves. Acceptance of the scope of this group is necessary to stopping their existence.
Tongue in cheek. Maybe Ian Fleming knew more than we thought about Spectre in the 50s and 60s.
I’m quite sure that he did.
Left? As if the Corporate “Right” doesn’t want exactly the same thing. This beast has two hands, John.
Just chiming in here from Indonesia, where a nationalist just got cheated out of the Presidential election by a DS puppet. Prabowo Subianto commanded Special Forces under Suharto; his grandfather founded the first state bank and his father served as a minister in the cabinet twice.
Millions of votes were “lost”, ballots marked up beforehand, government employees (including police and state company staff) told in no uncertain terms who to vote for, huge gushes of state funds for “development” doled out to village headmen days before the election.
The conglomerates (mostly ethnic Chinese, many crooked), banksters,multinational thugs and thieves currently doing their sugar mafia or salt mafia or beef mafia deals all ganged up to cheat Prabowo out of his 52% win. They need a nice malleable front man to enable them to keep up the swindle.
I was steadily astonished: so-called “democratic” bodies only like democracy when they can control it to their advantage.
People flatter themselves to imagine the deep state is “American” and is working to score in this country. The deep state is what has brought the country to its present impoverishment.
In Washington, everyone works toward acquiring power for self, their appointed office, and of course, MONEY. They are easily maneuvered by outside pressure. If you have enough money, and deep state has all the money it needs, you can get anything passed in DC.
A second member of the dem debate, candidate Williamson, has acknowledged that her mic was also cut off during the debate. Knowing this, one has to ask, was Trump truly the people’s choice? Ignore the TV talking heads’ reaction, but focus on what CNN’s Jeff Zucker said about that campaign: he loved it, the ratings were through the roof. That was his price, personal and career aggrandizement, and of course, MONEY.
We settle for Monday morning quarterbacking of the doings in government. Most folks are simply looking for some affirmation that what they can plainly see will be confirmed. We live in a world of cognitive dissonance.
Very good point!!!! The minions of the Deep State are operating for personal enrichment and empowerment. Their preeminent concerns being holding onto power for as long as possible and making the most money from positions of advantage for as long as possible. And each step that each individual takes in pursuit of these goals ironically works to strengthen the Deep State’s scope and reach. So it makes sense that all of the political shenanigans are intended to be entertainment, as well as, a fabrication of a faux political/ideological dichotomy that zaps the energy of the citizenry with circular and meaningless arguments over a perceived reality that doesn’t actually exist at the highest levels.
“People’s choice.” Interesting phrase, that. I doubt an honest to goodness “people’s choice” has ever been on offer in the entire history of the US.
Wow! Not even George Washington? But he was unanimously voted into office twice. Granted, it was a very different world then.
…and a different voting system, one by which the Pres was elected by the Electoral College alone, as represented in Congress – 69 votes in all.
The democrats are offering human sacrifices to win the White House. It is their only hope and means to shut down investigations into their collusion to overthrow the legally elected president. They have a good chance of pulling it off. The electorate is not interested in Trumpgate or AOC or pride day. They are scared to death that a job will be lost and that a car will get repo’d. A Democrat can win based on free shit and a jubilee year on school debt and who knows what else. I don’t think anyone cares now about anything other than survival in a sinking economy. And it is going down.
We have witnessed the reinflation of the economy from the debacle of 2008. It is just starting, manufacturing is the core of every good economy. China knew this when the stole and acquired a lot of the US manufacturing sector. However, manufacturing in the US is still diminutive due to international forces in trade. That is why I am pro tariff. For the economy to continue to grow unfettered by regulation and high taxes, manufacturing needs to grow and grow significantly. Then the economic multiplier will enlarge the service sector. National security is definitely in jeopardy if we cannot even build our weapons systems due to no raw materials.
If Trump’s recovery continues, who loses? Big question!
The globalists are losing with every dollar produced in the country. Every dollar spent here instead of globally grows the US. A few more years of this, the internationalists will be going bankrupt trying to keep their ship afloat. When they go, so goes drugs, and human trafficking.
Which is why the main proponents of trying to suppress the economy, the Deep State and their masters in the global neo liberals HAVE to shut down Trump’s wing in 2020. We are witnessing a war for control of the world! Our main enemies in the war are domestic!
JohnAZ
“…manufacturing is the core of every good economy. China knew this when the stole and acquired a lot of the US manufacturing sector.”
This whole bullshit narrative of how the Chinese STOLE the US manufacturing base is just such obvious hog-wash.
For example, Apple is (or was originally) a US corporation, no?
Most of the shareholders are American or American fund managers, no?
How was Apple STOLEN by China when the shareholders, in demanding the biggest profit that could possibly be squeezed out of their capital, opted to move the manufacturing to China?
Tariffs are bullshit also and will cause the US economy way more harm than you can imagine, while you start paying more as the tariffs take effect, onceteh importrs can no longer carry the impost.
@majella
Companies move there and then China forces them to give up data on their companies.
Take Huffy the once great American bike manufacture within a short period of time they moved to China and went out of business.
Huffy was acquired by China for pennies on the dollar and is now 100% Chinese.
>>> “… into their collusion to overthrow the legally elected president.”
Many, including the Deep State, an Ex-president, the Left, etc. don’t agree with your assessment. Take Russian interference out of the picture for the 77,000 votes in the upper Midwest and what do you have? I’m not at all sure anyone knows the answer to that one.
“Former President Jimmy Carter suggested Friday that a full investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election would show that Donald Trump didn’t win the presidency.
“There’s no doubt that the Russians did interfere in the election. And I think the interference, although not yet quantified, if fully investigated would show that Trump didn’t actually win the election in 2016. He lost the election and he was put into office because the Russians interfered on his behalf,” Carter said at the Carter Center’s retreat in Leesburg, Virginia.
Asked if he believes Trump is an illegitimate president, Carter paused for a moment.
“Based on what I just said, which I can’t retract,” Carter said to audience laughter.
Jimmy Carter, Trump discuss administration's China trade talks
Jimmy Carter, Trump discuss administration’s China trade talks
Special counsel Robert Mueller’s report found that Russia waged a “sweeping and systematic” influence campaign during the 2016 election with the goal of electing Trump, but did not establish a conspiracy between Trump’s campaign and Moscow.”
Old Jimmy has worked as an election “verifier” all over the world. I’m just saying…
Russian interference in the upper Midwest?
Wasn’t here a recount right after the election? It verified all the counts!
What did the Russians do to interfere? No one has proven anything was done. We are just supposed to the the word of our intelligence community.
The same intelligence community that is about to be clobbered by investigators for their interference in the 2016 election.
Nice try, jdhines and Jimmy Carter.
Jimmy Carter’s what, 94 years old now? I doubt very seriously he’s playing with an intact deck anymore either.
That is probably true, but his supposition is not without merit. I would say the Reds DID influence the 2016 election and it is possible (but not at all certain) that they were successful.
At any rate, there is a question mark, and not just by Jimmy, that GGG’s election is not legit and it certainly was not of the same caliber as say, Ronnie’s 1980 win.
Russian influence is one of the greatest conspiracies ever foisted on us. And one of the only conspiraces with no hard evidence whatsoever.
I cannot comprehend what it must be like to be so gullible.
>>> “Russian influence is one of the greatest conspiracies ever foisted on us. And one of the only conspiraces [sic] with no hard evidence whatsoever. I cannot comprehend what it must be like to be so gullible.”
No hard evidence??? WTF??? Are you really blind or just willfully blind? Have you not seen the posts by the Russian GRU trolls all over the internet? It doesn’t take a spymaster to figure out what they did. You really believe Putin and the Russians want what is good for the USA? and I AM GULLIBLE?
Really, you need to get out of the Fox Noise echo chamber a bit more, as you are succumbing to the blatant BS. No need to lie to yourself, right?
Show me the concrete evidence that Russia engaged in broad-based interference in the election for Trump and that this led to Trump’s victory.
Come on, let’s see your evidence.
No doubt Jimmy is getting upper there…. I hope I am doing that well at 94 and …… well, I also hope I make it to 94.
Jimmy wasn’t saying that he thought ballots were changed by Russkies, he was saying he believes the money that was spent on bogus, conflicting and false social media posts likely influenced, at least, 77,000 pro-GGG votes in the Electoral college, when you look at the 3,000,000 surplus Hillary won in the general.
Statistically, it is quite plausible the the Reds did have some influence, but it is NOT provable, so the electoral college “win” stands. I mean the Russians are deceptive, crafty, duplicitous, etc., but they are not stupid. The wouldn’t spend time and resources on all the interference if it wasn’t effective, right?
What Reds`
The Reds are at NYU and Stamford.
Russian Reds are American style Red now – as in conservatives. The whole color thing is just in place to confuse people.
Okay jdhines . Here’s your quote:I would say the Reds DID influence the 2016 election and it is possible (but not at all certain) that they were successful. Now please tell me how The Reds” (LOL) went about influencing the election and please, be as specific as possible. Or perhaps, jdhines, ,you’ve just got a “feeling “The Reds” (LOL) influenced the election.
RIB
>>> “Now please tell me how The Reds” (LOL) went about influencing the election and please, be as specific as possible.”
Gee whiz RIP, (LMAO) that’s an easy one. They (Russian Intelligence, et al) hired an army of trolls to put things up on the internet and social media to make Red State Rubes believe that the Communist Liberals, the Blacks, Hispanics and Queers were taking over ‘Merica. Also, that “your” guns were going to be confiscated and the Christian faith and “Whiteness” was threatened by the immigrants. No need to mention the blatant appeal to the White Supremacy crowd, but I just did.
“Pretty simple really, e.g. your faith, guns and way of life are a risk, now reduce the taxes on your betters, the wealthy (and vote Republican, of course)!”
See, it is straightforward now, isn’t it? You have been set straight, so to speak. You are straight, right?
at risk, rather
>>> “Show me the concrete evidence that Russia engaged in broad-based interference in the election for Trump and that this led to Trump’s victory. Come on, let’s see your evidence.”
Surely – quite easy. How about the receipts from Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. etc. for the money the Reds spent (millions$ by the way) buying advertising on behalf of the Trumpster? As testified to by those companies in open hearings before congress and detailed in Herr Mueller’s prosecuting document (v. 2).
Please keep in mind, Trumpster only had to “flip,” 77,000 votes in the Upper Midwest (3 states as you will recall) and further, That HRH Hillary beat him by 3,000,000 (count ’em) votes in the popular vote. This of course implies, that the Trumpster is not so popular as witnessed by his inaugural crowd size when compared to the gargantuan crowds enjoyed by Mr. Landslide, President Barack Hussein Obama!
Many rubes nationwide sucked those ads up like there was not going to be a tomorrow. Trumpster, even at this late date, says he would gladly accept help from foreign (read Russkies) for 2020. There you have it in a nutshell, as it were.
There, evidence, signed sealed and delivered and you are welcome! What does this prove? That it is entirely possible that the Trumpster is, as Pres. Carter has stated, an illegitimate, undeserving, usurper of the office of President of The USA and further, that the American people have, quite possibly, been flim flammed by a conman of the highest order. That’s what it proves.
Now that you have been “dealt with,” I will bid you adieu as I am very busy with other matters this morning. See you, wouldn’t want to be you.
Dealt with?
Show me evidence that Russia engaged in a broad based campaign of election interference to get Trump in office.
13 (snicker) indictments for random nobodies posting armwresting memes of Jesus and Satan. And an indictment for a fake company.
You have nothing.
Mueller already ended the fantasy though, so no need to rub salt in the would, I suppose.
What, Johnny?
“We are just supposed to the the word of our intelligence community.”
When I put that through Google Translate my computer started hissing and smoking and sputtering…
Couldn’t even determine what language it was supposed to be in.
You ain’t a Arid Zone Robo by any chance?
Did Russia force Hillary Clinton to have a private server and delete 30,000 emails that should have been reviewed by The State Department in order to comply with FOIA requests?
Did Russia force Hillary Clinton to destroy her various devices with hammers and use BleachBit to scrub her devices which was an obstruction of justice?
Did Russia force Hillary Clinton to wilt like a flower at the balmy 9/11 event in NYC where she was thrown into her waiting vehicle like a side of beef and lost one of her shoes in the gutter? Russia’s fault??
Did Russia force Hillary Clinton to do all kinds of shady things with The Clinton Foundation while Secretary of State taking millions of dollars from foreign governments then making dirty “quid pro quo” deals with them? Was it Russia that forced Hillary and Bill Clinton to screw Haiti for millions of dollars too?
And Russia obviously forced Bill Clinton to go to Moscow for a twenty minute speech and pay him a cool half a mil for it? Right?
And Russia obviously forced Hillary Clinton to give many speeches to Wall Street banksters for major $$ then try to deceive the voters about what she said to them?? Right. I could just see Putin pulling her strings making Hillary call Trump supporters “a basket of deplorables”.
And it was painfully obvious that Russia forced Hillary Clinton to support the bogus war in Iraq, the bombing of Libya (turning it into a failed state and her support for war in Syria, right.
And then! Russia forced Hillary Clinton to NOT campaign in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania! Imagine the POWER Russia had over her??!
The truth is that the Hillary Clinton is a corrupt human being and she handed the race to Trump!
And the lousy $200k in Facebook ads bought by “Russians” was a joke.
And on top of all of that it seems like she will never get over her 2016 defeat. It may define the rest of her life and in many ways it appears she is giving in to the bitterness and anger. Maybe this is justice. After all, its questionable whether justice will be meted out to the Clintons in the worldly sense.
Once Durham and Barr finish their investigation into the machinations at the FBI/Justice Department/The Obama Administration/Samantha Power and her the amount of her historical level of unmaskings. The connections between the Steele Dossier and the DNC’s “opposition research”, especially considering that the dossier was used to get FISA warrants to spy on Flynn and Carter Page.
Who knows what Durham/Barr will discover in order to explain to the American people “how” the investigation into the Trump campaign and on into the Trump administration started within the FBI.
Only time will tell.
By all the accounts she is a nasty bitter person with a God complex.
Low level staffers and secret service are told not to say good morning to her or talk to her and to get out of sight and her way if she was in the hallway as the first lady.
Bill on the other hand polar opposite friendly and engaging.
https://www.historyonthenet.com/hillary-clinton-personality
Thanks for sharing! I have heard about some of these horror stories before. That would have been totally amazing if the Secret Service agents would have went on strike. Of course their commitment to duty and service wouldn’t allow for that. But certainly she deserved it. A rude and bitter hag if ever there was one.
Hillary, Hillary… blah, blah. She lost, OK. Orange man won (the country lost big time, but Orange won). The R’s have had 30 years to investigate Her Royal Highness and put her away, but they blew it. Hillary beat them like a rug at every turn. Now who is that on? It’s on the lame R’s who let a Deep Stater whip their asses repeatedly over the decades. Only the Russkies (Reds) could take her down. Pitiful.
>>> “And the lousy $200k in Facebook ads bought by “Russians” was a joke.”
It’s a joke indeed as it is completely false. let’s get our facts straight. No fake news aloud. Saying it does not make it so. Come on now, be real and don’t lie to yourself.
“RUSSIA SPENT $1.25M PER MONTH ON ADS, ACTED LIKE AN AD AGENCY: MUELLER”
“U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller unveiled the details of an allegedly widespread and coordinated campaign by Russians to influence the U.S. presidential election in favor of Donald Trump, delivering on his initial mandate by the Justice Department.
In an indictment announced Friday in Washington, Mueller describes a years-long, multimillion-dollar conspiracy by hundreds of Russians aimed at criticizing Hillary Clinton and supporting Senator Bernie Sanders and Trump. Mueller charged 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities and accused them of defrauding the U.S. government by interfering with the political process.
Those involved spent some $1.25 million per month on ad campaigns and measured their efforts much as an ad agency would, according to the indictment. It says the group kept track of metrics like views and comments, and measured engagement.
Prosecutors provided a remarkably detailed picture of how Russians used social media, fake rallies and secretive operatives in the U.S. to create “political intensity” by backing radical groups, opposition social movements and disaffected voters. The outreach from the Russians included direct contact with over 100 Americans.”
aloud = allowed… Get it? I think it’s rather creative, don’t you?
And by all accounts the bitch spent a billion dollars to lose to a deplorable rube who can’t construct a simple sentence.
Ah how that must gall at her and you to lose to Trump a former DEMOCRAT turned traitor to the party. The unforgivable sin of turn coating and of course if he will turn on party it stands to reason he is a traitor to the country right??
Russia can spend a trillion on ads as far as I know its perfectly legal.
According to some Hillary spending money to get a faux dossier FROM FOREIGN INTELIGENCE SERVICES is ok but not for Trump!
No never colluding with Russia is only ok for Democrats!
As it applies to Trump his rotund orangeness he must be fried in boiling oil.
According to some he should be impeached and eventually jailed while the Empress is anointed up on high for gracing us with her putrid pretense of actually caring about Americans. Cankles is loving and caring after all.
/Sarcasm off
What a bunch of garbage. You act like the Republicans are the only ones who could take down the Deep State. Well yeah, if many of them weren’t a part of it in the first place. But oh well, they are! The Republicans never seriously challenged the Clintons reign of power. And I am still trying to figure out how Trump’s election helped Russia. Our relationship with Russia is more strained now than when Obama was President. We were practically cozy with Russia at that point.
>>> “And by all accounts the bitch spent a billion dollars to lose to a deplorable rube who can’t construct a simple sentence. Ah how that must gall at her and you to lose to Trump a former DEMOCRAT turned traitor to the party.”
Once again, missing the point, definitely missing the point. She, and I by proxy, did not lose to he (said rube) “who cannot construct a simple sentence” (your words, not mine), but rather we lost to the formidable and devious Russian (Bot Reds). And that, old boy, is quite different. But I am sure you knew that.
Figuring in those Reds (Bot Russkies), if true (IF, I said), definitely an illegitimate president. No question about that, ILLEGITIMATE with a capital I, and at LOT of people are saying it too. I’m just saying…
@jdhines
ROTFLOL
My words as you say are the words I have heard YOU anti-Trumpers peddle for over two years so not my words but your collective groups.
All the unreasonable complaints as to why Mr. Trump is not fit for the office.
Trying to establish where in mind space you really are.
With that I clearly see peddling a narrative that many people are saying but that has no actual real world relevance.
Hillary lost because she sucked, she mismanaged her campaign, and appeared physically as well as emotionally ill. She used words like deplorable and alienated a possible base of users. She lost because she was arrogant and it was her time only she failed in execution and management.
The Russians had precious little to do with her loss.
Trump out worked her and outsmarted her.
Do try to keep up Mr. Hines your perspective is echoed endlessly all over the mainstream media but that does not mean it’s true or even coherent.
Russian bots did not flip the bits on the voting machines for Trump nor did they hack the brains of delegates in the electoral college. Wish full thinking as to the why no never that Hillary just got out hustled!
The key word there regarding a “widespread campagin” is “allegedly.” When one’s cognitive faculties are not impaired by emotion, one notices these sorts of things.
Then we have 13 (snicker) indictments for facebook memes of Jesus and Satan armwrestling.
One of the “entities” he indicted was a company that did not even exist.
Want 2016 election interference? My money’s on Israel, which has gained tremendously with Trump’s election. Remember that Trump tower meeting with candidate Trump in which Netanyahu came out of it all smiles stating, and I’m paraphrasing, We will have a friend in the White House with Trump. Now that would be an interesting meeting to explore.
Probably all literate great empires end this way: Endless spectacle and distraction so that we never have to face what’s really bearing down us, until it’s far too late. 🙁
It’s a human nature problem. And the problem today is that we live in a time where conventional forms of controlling or at least shaping human nature are unacceptable. Anything goes and nothing matters is not a creed for civilization building but rather one of anarchy.
>>> Mr. Nadler’s majority Democrat members are not the only ones who get to ask questions. Did the Chairman forget that?
No he didn’t forget. But, as Chairman, Nadler can effectively nullify questions he doesn’t like. He can interrupt, break any momentum, declare a member out of order, declare that the witness does not have to answer, etc.
And since only the Chairman can recommend a witness for Contempt of Congress, Mueller is safe in the knowledge that his prearranged script with Nadler will be adhered to.
The conservative press will of course report the questions Mueller refused to answer. The MSM won’t mention it at all. So it didn’t happen.
JANOS– MS WILLIAMSON –a jewish woman…did you know that about MS WILLIAMSON?
I heard her speak once, to a large rapt audience. A jewish female friend brought me. She told us that ‘Womens problems are from being undercut not by men but by other women’ and the crowd applauded. I found her bland and all too new agey.
PUCKER NEEDS AN ANSWER–
Where did the Crazy White People ever get the idea that the Utopian vision of Diversity and Multiculturalism would work out? From Emma Lazarus and similar, that’s who.
Yeah, I knew that.
Not quite – remember we had our Lions shall lie down with the Lambs thing going, both from the Old Testament and the New. They had lots to work with. Once Christianity was displaced by Science and became Social Gospel, we were profoundly open to reprogramming. They didn’t miss their chance….
Social Gospel postulates that Man can create Heaven on Earth by his own hands without God. Science chimes in and says Yes, we can – with technology, or even modification of the human body or genome.
Maybe those folks who think that Christianity promises the lion will lie down with in this time frame ought to a course in apologetics and eschatology
Isn’t the Old Testament reference actually a wolf rather than a lion? I believe both prophecies from the Old and New Testament refer to Christ establishing His Kingdom here on Earth. Is that correct? In any case, it is true that the Western world has replaced Christianity with Science and Reason. Our new religion is Science and the expectation is that Science will solve all of our problems and make us like gods. In a way its like a continuation of that original deception since it can never be.
Science will not solve all our problems and it will not make us like gods. We’re still better paying attention to science, though (certainly rather than business people or politicians), but the word ‘belief’ is a category error in this context often made by people who don’t like what science tells them.
It’s a manipulative deliberate error that serves their purpose well, given how most people don’t think very deeply about the meanings of words.
“In a way, it’s like a continuation of that original deception since it can never be.”
SSL, I have a lot of trouble discerning what you mean from most posts you make, so this is no different, I guess.
A little confused here – what ‘original deception’? As I read it, you’re referring to the deception of the bible and ‘Christ’ as a redeeming arm of the trinity godhead.
If that’s what you mean then hurray for you! You’ve got it! But I’m thinking that’s unlikely.
Of course many great advances in civilization have been made because of science. Science has its place just like religion does. But the two do not have to be exclusive. That is a false choice that has been foisted onto society. It’s so unimaginative and uncreative too in my opinion. And btw there are scientists who believe in God.
And the original deception is simply a reference to the lie that the Devil told in the Garden of Eden. You should read Genesis to refresh your memory.
“And the original deception is simply a reference to the lie that the Devil told in the Garden of Eden. You should read Genesis to refresh your memory.”
Since it’s just a creation myth among many, it would be more honest and accurate to put ‘original deception’ in inverted commas, don’t you think? At best it’s metaphorical.
We are lovers of metaphor as a species. We tell each other stories to try to understand our existence. That’s art. The hard stuff is science, which seems to have less difficulty updating itself when new understandings arise, through hard work. Nostalgia has a strong hold on people, because we like our comfort zones.
American caravan arrives in Canadian ‘birthplace of insulin’ for cheaper medicine
https://ca.reuters.com/article/topNews/idCAKCN1TU0T4-OCATP
“TORONTO (Reuters) – A self-declared ‘caravan’ of Americans bused across the Canada-U.S. border on Saturday, seeking affordable prices for insulin and raising awareness of ‘the insulin price crisis’ in the United States.
“The group called Caravan to Canada started the journey from Minneapolis, Minnesota on Friday, and stopped at London, Ontario on Saturday, to purchase life-saving type 1 diabetes medication at a pharmacy.
“The caravan numbers at approximately 20 people, according to Nicole Smith-Holt, a member of the group. Smith-Holt said her 26-year-old son died in June 2017 because he was forced to ration insulin due to the high cost [emphasis added]. This is Smith-Holt’s second time on the caravan.
“Caravan to Canada trekked the border in May for the same reasons, which Holt-Smith said was smaller than the group this week. She said Americans have gone to countries like Mexico and Canada for more affordable medications in the past and continue to do so.
“The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported in May that Canadian pharmacists have seen a ‘quiet resurgence’ in Americans coming to Canada looking for cheaper pharmaceuticals.”
—
It may surprise some of you to learn a couple of things about me: (a) my sister used to work as a Canadian border guard, a job that included turning people back as she deemed appropriate, taking others into custody, performing invasive searches, and much else; and (b) I completely approve of the work she did.
I can approve of it because I trust that the work was performed in a manner that was humane, and not needlessly cruel. That my sister, her colleagues, and the authority they represented recognized the humanity of every border crosser they dealt with, and didn’t conceive of them as vermin without rights. I’m reasonably assured of these things because we’re not ruled by dead-eyed ghouls), at least not yet.
Another reason we weren’t skeered, when a caravan of needy foreigners from south of us arrived at our borders, is because the economic injustice that had driven them to us was something we recognized. Treating people like garbage as a deterrent to others is one of the shittiest policies in the long, dismal history of shitty policies. If the USA actually wants peace and order along its southern border, then it needs to address the causes that drive people to leave their homes and risk a desperate bid to make it north. Latin America needs a Marshall Plan, not more of the same abuse, imperialism and malign neglect from El Norte that turned it into a place people need to escape from.
You all should stop treating your southern neighbours as a semi-colonial backwater and start helping them to become peaceful, prosperous nations instead. And we up here in Canada should help out. It’s the neighbourly thing to do.
Why does your government have border controls then? I mean why do I even get stopped and have to show my passport card? Why does Cañada have immigration laws? If you are willing to take the criminal elements, the diseased, the uneducated then why don’t you? You have a lot of space and fresh water up there. You have national health insurance so you are already prepared in a sense.
I realize you troll routinely but do answer with some explanation.
RB: “If you are willing to take the criminal elements, the diseased, the uneducated then why don’t you?”
This is nowhere in what I wrote. This is entirely your preoccupation, and the preoccupation of others around here.
The reason I keep posting the things I post is in the forlorn hope that at some point, someone will notice what I’m actually saying, instead of reading their own prejudices into it. Call that ‘trolling’ if it makes you happy.
Canada has lots of room but what are you going to do when the welfare state starts running out of money?
Lets face it Canada’s economy is just not that big.
What are you going to do when peoples rent, food costs, gas, car insurance, electricity bills, water bills and natural gas bills sky rockets and quality of life plummets as a result of higher then normal demand? How about when there are thousands of homeless people living in tent cities all over the place because they have been priced out of anything resembling housing again as a result of illegal aliens pooling money and living 20 deep in the same dwelling?
Fine and dandy to say all that you say until reality sets in and there is a limit to just how many people a country can handle.
The Untied States hit that number years ago your time is coming.
The ‘size’ of an economy is directly related to population.
Population USA 329,000,000; Canada 37;000,000 – or 11% of the size of teh USA
GDP (a flawed measure but consistent) USA $20 trillion; Canada $1.7 trillion or 8.5% of the size of the USA.
So, the differences between economy & population is measurable but not disproportionate – in fact, you could apply rounding on the Canadian stats & come up with 9% on both measures, therefore roughly equal.
Yet when you look at what the Canadian taxpayer gets for their Loonies compared to your average Joe Sixpack, there’s a stunning difference.
Canadian healthcare as %age of GDP is 10.5% while the USA spends in excess of 17% and yet more than 10% of the citizenry (let alone the illegal immigrants) have no access to healthcare.
@majella
Yea except Canadas military is tiny. They also have the US border patrol defending their borders while porous there is an entire large country between them and the poorer neighbors to the south.
Why because they know America is defending them.
If Canada actually had to field a military to defend itself that “healthcare” would be far under funded and it will be VERY soon.
Your gimme healthcare socialist pabulum and gruel never stops does it and yet you said you make 500k a year so healthcare should not be an issue for you and yours….right?
Exactly. Even our resident Canuck, Elrond, freely admits that the USA effectively subsidizes Canada’s defense, leaving Canada with significantly more to spend on social services.
Majella’s comparison is apples and oranges.
Yup. We have oceans on three points of the compass, and you guys on the fourth. Canada is The Shire.
Except, what that means is that the USA determines Canada’s fate, especially given the huge disparities in population and ability to project force. What’s really fortunate is that you don’t treat us the way you treat your southern and Caribbean neighbours. For that, we can thank the British for being sturdier than the Spanish during the age of imperialism.
Had we been fending for ourselves around the time you guys got that piratical gleam in your eye, either Canada would be a lot more like Guatemala or I would be paying taxes to Washington, D.C.. Neither prospect fills me with glee.
>>> What’s really fortunate is that you don’t treat us the way you treat your southern and Caribbean neighbours.
Or how you treat your Inuit, for that matter.
Okay, benr – I’ll give you that one – there is ACCESS to healthcare for the uninsured and the indigent, fair enough.
But these are the people who cannot afford to carry even the shittiest of insurance plans, or who perhaps could have but due to an unforeseen expense could no longer afford it.
But let’s be clear on the distinctions: showing up at an emergency room without insurance – IF you qualify as ’emergency’ (spurting wound, flu,), then you’ll receive treatment, but you won’t get to hang around for long. You’ll receive the minimum necessary and be shuffled away asap.
Seeking urgent – but not emergency – treatment – will cost you, unless you can find a free community clinic. The bill won’t go away…it will be a debt the unfortunate seeking treatment have to drag around like a shackle.
But the fact remains that 13% (44 million) of the US population doesn’t have/cannot afford even basic medical insurance.
I recall you recently stating how your premium has doubled (‘under Obamacare’ naturally) to $800 per month. Are you happy with the coverage, co-pays, deductibles etc? Do you think you get value for your huge premium bucks? And all this is ON TOP of your huge (‘layered’, whatever that means) tax burden? Hmm.
The fact that my household pays tax on around $500K of GP a year (so it’s definitely MY dime too) doesn’t make me immune to feeling sympathy with those whose circumstances are reduced and are simply treated as being third-class citizens by right-wing assholes who scream “free stuff for all will destroy this country!” and other such vacant unthinking bullshit.
Exscotticus: You’re absolutely correct, and I commend you on your awareness of this urgent issue.
Perhaps you’re also aware that Canada’s inquiry into missing and murdered indigenous women and girls (MMIWG) recently rendered its final report:
https://www.mmiwg-ffada.ca/final-report/
The report has generated considerable controversy because it found, in the words of Chief Commissioner Marion Buller, that “The hard truth is that we live in a country whose laws and institutions perpetuate violations of fundamental rights, amounting to a genocide against Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA people.” [Emphasis added.]
Genocide is a heavyweight charge to make against any country, let alone one like Canada that promotes a preferred image of itself as peaceful and enlightened. But the report was commissioned by Canada’s federal government, and its conclusions about the ongoing legacy of settler colonialism in North America are serious ones, having implications for both our countries.
>>> Genocide is a heavyweight charge to make against any country
Glad we agree. So please don’t abuse language and misapply the term to score bona fides with your social circle. Millions of people are detained at borders around the world. And those millions are probably not getting their UN-mandated metric squeeze of toothpaste. It’s not genocide. If you’re going to bandy that term around, you better back it up with overwhelming evidence.
@majella
While we are at it lets look at your complete bald faced OUTRIGHT lie.
“yet more than 10% of the citizenry (let alone the illegal immigrants) have no access to healthcare.”
No means none, zero, zip, nada which is less than some!
So are you trying to lie and say of someone shows up to an emergency room with a spurting wound, flu, or anything they will be turned away?
We all know that is a bald faced lie my local emergency rooms are treating illegals all the time for free on my dime! How do I know because the ER is full of them 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
Everyone in America has ACCESS to some medical care its how it gets paid for that is in question.
Tell me why you lie so much what charge do you get from consistently being wrong and on the wrong side of most debates?
I replied to this, but out of order – see above.
Any response to that one, benr?
Yes. Helping Southern neighbors is the least you can do Elrond to absolve you of your uniquely White sins. Please send a check payable to SoftStarLight at your earliest convenience. Please give as much as you can but even $5 (US of course) goes a long way! I’ll send you the PO Box information once you have confirmed your commitment to assisting a semi-colonial backwater. Photos of purchases will follow once I begin to spend your money on becoming peaceful and prosperous. Smiling selfies will give you satisfaction in knowing that you helped to uplift the troubled ones south of you. I can even pepper joyful babies into the photos for the effect. And I will also take a photo of myself crying in joy as I cut triumphantly through a fence with wire cutters. Once I feel peaceful and prosperous enough I will share the love. Gosh you are so friggin smart!!!!!!
@Elrond,
A 20-man caravan, eh? That’s your straw man? Try 100,000 a month including children and some carrying diseases from the stone age. Oh and criminals mixed in as well.
Canada’s tune toward migrants changed quite rapidly when its borders were inundated with Haitians and Nigerians. In fact, Canada sent its immigration and refugee minister to Nigeria, asking the Nigerian government to help discourage its citizens from crossing into Canada, and asking the United States to deny visas to people who might then go to Canada. Ouch! So much for “recognizing the humanity” and all your other self-righteous tripe.
I wonder what the Democrat’s tune would be if all the people who wanted to get into the United States from Mexico were public school teachers?
No the wonder would be if all them illegals pulled the lever for Republicans or Libertarians.
No wonder they would be throwing hissy fits.
Exscotticus: Stop playing tu quoque. Everything I’m saying boils down to two points:
1. Migrants at your southern border are a problem of the USA’s own making. The United States should recognize this fact, which is a fact, and start doing something to correct the conditions that the USA itself created. For details about how this is a problem the USA created for itself, read my response to RIB below.
2. In the meantime, the USA must stop treating migrants like
animals. Stop separating families, stop confining children without basic sanitation, stop stockpiling people outdoors without shelter. This is criminal behaviour committed by the USA against helpless people. You have an obligation to treat them decently, provide food, clothing and shelter, and judge their cases according to relevant international standards. If this is a burden you don’t want, then I say, tough titty. Man up and do what’s right.
Note what I’m not saying: I’m not saying the USA must let migrants in. I’m not saying the USA should not police its borders. What I am saying: stop treating these human beings the way you’re treating them. This United States must meet minimum humanitarian standards and enact the rule of law.
>>> Migrants at your southern border are a problem of the USA’s own making.
Agreed. We saw a great example at the Dem debates, where every single candidate raised their hand for illegal immigrant healthcare at American taxpayer expense. Where every candidate supports open borders in everything but name. All of this serves to encourage more of the same.
>>> In the meantime, the USA must stop treating migrants like
animals.
Animals? Oh that’s right; some kids didn’t get their toothpaste. The horror!
Meanwhile, perhaps you should focus on your own country before you criticize others…
The Canadian holding centres, which are off limits to the public, resemble medium-security prisons. They are surrounded by razor-wire fences and kept under surveillance by guards.
There are three such facilities across Canada, in Vancouver, Toronto, and Laval, Que. In some provinces, asylum seekers are detained in prisons.
Wait until you have 100k migrants slamming up against your border, and your Lefty leaders unwilling to even acknowledge that there’s a crisis, and certainly unwilling to do anything about it but encourage more of the same, before you embarrass yourself with more of your hypocritical moral platitudes.
Not once in all your drivel about “animals” and “human rights” do you hold immigrants themselves responsible. Who told them to have children when they can’t even feed themselves? Who supports and encourages their reckless and irresponsible breeder lifestyles that routinely put children in harm’s way?
Yes—that would be people like you.
So, as far as you’re concerned, it’s all THEIR OWN FAULT and literal genocide is an acceptable solution.
Literal Genocide?
Are you kidding?
Lord I hope so.
The leftist media is shrieking about things they have not even investigated as usual.
I can’t speak for Canada but in the US the conditions are crowded and not ideal but Genocide get a grip.
Yes, Majella, it’s THEIR OWN FAULT for having children they can’t afford to feed. I would think that would be obvious. Then again, I may have gone a bridge too far in assuming that you understand how procreation works. You certainly haven’t grasped the concept of personal responsibility.
No, Majella, no one but YOU has said anything about genocide. FYI, the destruction of language was a key concept in Orwell’s 1984. You ought to read it, as your misuse of the term, genocide, is a good example.
When you throw out terms inappropriately, and try to generalize them to the point where they no longer convey their original meanings, you also normalize the actions they convey. You cheapen and degrade something that should not be taken lightly.
Explain to me why it’s the obligation of the United States to fix the problems of the countries south of the border, Elrond? I bet you’re one of the first people to scream bloody murder if the United States” stick’s it’s nose in the affairs of other countries. Why no ask the Chinese to do it? Why not ask the European Union to do it?
RIB, the obligation stems from a long history, which has already happened, of the United States “sticking its nose in the affairs” of Central America. This history, which you can actually learn about if you care about the truth, is what produced the conditions that are currently driving people to your southern border.
Here you go, cubby:
https://medium.com/s/story/timeline-us-intervention-central-america-a9bea9ebc148
Go ahead, read it. There’s a pretty extensive timeline, so I’ll sum up: as far as the U.S. government and U.S. business interests are concerned, Central America countries is there to provide cheap goods, period. An economy based on supplying cheap export goods is an economy that can’t develop and where most people are poor, permanently. From time to time, someone in one of those countries gets the crazy idea that they should be producing for themselves and building their own economy. When that happens, they either get put down, using arms supplied by the USA; or if they manage to succeed, their harbours get mined and the US funds local murderers to make life impossible. All of this creates chaos, opening up power vacuums that get filled up by militias, drug cartels, and so forth. Meanwhile, observers from the wealthy countries go tsk tsk at the chaos, blaming the very people they’re keeping under their thumbs.
You all have been stirring shit up in Central America for over a century in the name of cheap fruit and coffee. You blame your victims for conditions that are the consequence of your own actions. And now you’re complaining about a mess at your southern border, caused by people fleeing the conditions you created. That’s what makes this your obligation, RIB. Question asked, question answered.
If anyone answers this, don’t bitch at me or make some sorry attempt at derision. Read the article and show that you’ve read it. Then write something that shows you understand the facts as they are.
WOW! I guess I don’t have to ask the Canuck how he feels about reparations
Thanks, Elrond.
It’s not an easy read…just the El Salvador story stretching from 1932 to 2015 was uke-making, especially when Ike, the Saviour of the Free World in WW2, opposed free & fair elections if it meant a left-wing government that might, you know, care for its people more than for the corporatist rapers & pillagers.
The most recent entry SMACKS of quadruplicate hypocrisy in the era of Trump tariffs:
“2015: Under the tariff reduction model of CAFTA-DR, all U.S. industrial and commercial goods enter El Salvador duty free, creating impossible conditions for domestic industry to compete. As of 2016, the country had a negative trade balance of $4.18 billion.”
The article only covers three countries – Guatemala, Honduras & El Salvador. It would double its size if it added even a similarly brief summary of the US state/corporate crimes against Nicaragua.
So, RIB – DO you have an answer to Elrond’s question?
@majella
That was then this is now.
Are you somehow responsible for the debts or sins of your parents grandparents and last forefathers of the country?
What country did you bail on to come to America you know the country you bash and want to destroy with Socialist policies?
Are you trying to say those same leftwing governments care about their people or are even in a position to make life better? You know like the wonderful loving embrace of Say Cuba or Venezuela? I wonder how it’s going for even the “rich” down there I hear they have managed to clean out all the dogs, cats and rats and have collectively lost an average of 25 pounds. Ah the love of a leftwing government with that kind of love you might as well pick up a case of herpes as well.
In doing so you reveal just how out of touch with reality you are.
Guatemala, Honduras & El Salvador all have one thing in common extreme poverty, epic corruption and an uneducated people or peasant class they exploit to no end.
American foreign policy vis a vis the Monroe doctrine or even the no transfer principle allowed some amount of self determination from Mexico to Argentina what they did with it was on them.
Benr
You burble on about ‘property rights’ as if the US food corps directly indicted the article Elrond linked to (which I’m guessing you STILL haven’t read), went in and made fair&esquire deals with the ‘owners’. The facts are blindingly different – they south out and support corrupt politicians/military juntas and did deals with THEM. Part of the deal was significant kick-backs as long as the favoured regime kept the peasants ‘in line’ and allowed starvation wages & horrific & dangerous working conditions -BY LAW. This kept the profitability as high as it could be.
Whenever a populist movement said ‘Enough!’ It would be crushed. If such a populist movement got lucky – viz the Sandinistas in Nicuargua – and got power, very poseible resource (clandestine, usually) was deployed to crush it, along with smearing the movement as ‘commie terrorists’ while the kill-squads for Ronnie Raygun were ‘freedom fighters’.
Give me a feckibg break, Ben. Even you’re not that clueless…are you?
‘South’ = ‘sought’
@majella
I don’t need to read it I have read such hit pieces hundreds of times.
I have also actually spent time in many of those countries surfing and traveling also on a Unitas while in the Navy and seen what goes on down their first hand.
The crime is out of this world bad we hired an actual armed guard while surfing la libertad in El Salvador and playa popoyo in Nicaragua!
More of the same always more of the same.
Not like all that wailing and hand wringing is new or even that imaginative.
To put it simply I don’t give a shit.
I know what I saw and US policy had zero to do with the culture down there Plomo y plata was the name of the game and that ain’t Americas fault.
benr:
“To put it simply I don’t give a shit”.
That about sums it all up. No need to post anything else now. Your work here is done.
@Majella
Yes that’s correct I don’t give a shit what some leftwing whiny rag says constant revisionist history.
As we see constantly they change language, history and most of all make what they don’t like disappear.
Always in search of some aggrieved group of people with real or imagined bitches and grips!
Not once will these same rags look at what their collective side does because the end justifies what ever means it takes to get to their end goal of complete power over everyone’s lives.
Something about the tree of liberty comes to mind but in this warped world of offense at the flag Lord only knows anymore.
God bless America, our President and our military.
benr
You just RAGE & RAGE, don’t you? Any information that doesn’t fit your narrative is fake, falsified, made-up and published in a ‘rag’.
The author of Elrond’s historical article would not fit your expectations, being of Asian extraction and studying at Brown University (so clearly he’s a lying, leftist SJW of no account whatsoever).
Aside from that, all the criticisms you level at ‘rags’ can be just as easily leveled at your sources of ‘truth’.
@majella
The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so. -rwr
“If fascism ever comes to America, it will come in the name of liberalism. -rwr
Which is exactly what we see from your side constantly.
Brown University so what that does not mean the man has a clue or is not selling an agenda. I don’t care if he is Asian identity politics is your sides game not mine. I also don’t suffer from your obsessive liberal self loathing.
>>> This history, which you can actually learn about if you care about the truth, is what produced the conditions that are currently driving people to your southern border.
Absolute post hoc ergo propter hoc nonsense.
Using your specious logic, it is Spain and not the USA that is responsible for the caravans, since they “stirred up shit” when they decided to colonize the entire area. Prior to colonization, these murderous cannibal cultures (Aztec, Mayan, and Inca) were perfectly happy playing soccer with human heads before the conquistadors arrived and put an end to it. The horror! But please Elrond, go ahead and argue that Spain should NOT have “stirred up shit”, and that the indigenous populations should be permitted to return to the old ways. Maybe they could take a vote!
Once again you lay the blame for the entire world’s woes at America’s doorstep. You start your historical analysis when it’s most convenient for you, ignoring the massive contributions and sacrifice the USA has made for the Third World. And nowhere in your analysis are Central or South Americans responsible for their own actions. Nowhere do you hold migrants responsible for their own irresponsible breeder culture lifestyles that promote socialist dictators and create generational dependency for their sustenance.
benr – you remain clueless.
You didn’t read the article Elrond liked to, that’s clear.
As the old saw goes ‘As ye sow, so shall ye reap’.
US corporations, with the backing of the legal & military might of ITS federal government, has been relentless in its fervent crushing of any progressive government in Central America, and it goes back a century or more.
To criticize poor countries for being poor is the height of assholedom. To refuse to recognize the part in that poverty played by the US is simply not surprising.
The braying of the uniformed accusing others of being so and delusional as well.
Progressivism aka communism deserves to be scourged back into the recesses of pock marked green oozing pustules of the dark ages. Just like good old Venezuela by all reports their gold was shipped off to Mother Russia for safe keeping not to long ago. Their loving DICKTATOR made it so to line his own rats nest in fear of being deposed.
Like a pot full of crabs as soon as one looks to be getting out the others drag them back down and so it goes endlessly in these countries. That is until one gets way ahead and then he kicks everyone in the face he does not like or who does not revere them like a God.
Riddle me this catwomen had the US not kept Europe out do you think European powers would have been more hands off or less?
Is it right to take land form someone that lawfully paid for it ever?
How about if they sank millions into pineapple crops or fruit fields and fifty years later the “people” now living there decide it should be theirs what then? Evil evil how dare people invest in something and expect a return and not to just give it away.
How about this I am American Indian I want your house and bank account you owe it to me since your an evil invader.
I expect the keys the deed and the bank account by the end of the week.
Check my response above (hit the wrong feedback button – clueless!)
Your response is a non-response as usual.
Tell me when you look in the mirror do you see a quisling or Hammaspeikko only instead of teeth it’s brain rot?
“Hammaspeikko”!!!
Great word, thanks!
There is zero obligation to do anything. As if the ordinary everyday American has any leverage to change what rogue agencies and assets do on behalf of the Global Elite under the official auspices of the US military or whatever. You love the United Nations when they promote LGBTQIA rights in Africa or subsidize women owned businesses in Laos. But you don’t like it when the UN is deeply involved in regime change or embroiled and entangled in conflict.
Which is often. The Elite in Canada have flourished along with the American Elite for many many years now. Do you translate this to mean that ordinary Canadians need to feed, cloth, and house migrants and essentially pay the price for the misdeeds of the Elite?
Not even a Christian-based one? You know, “If you do this for (to) the least of my brethren, you do it to me.”?
The file of USA Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz, which Attorney General William P. Barr and specially-assigned prosecutor & US Attorney John H. Durham, found to be quite interesting reading –

Good morning CFNers.
How about this suggestion for a fine Monday
The Trumpers and the Biden Delaney Dems are being forced together by the extremist nuts on both the right and left. The ldiots in Portland are the latest example. It is definitely starting to warm up again. Remember who is funding Antifa.
The moderates are going to have to reconcile to prevent America’s demise.
So a new two party system may emerge with the Trumpers and moderate Dems in one party and the nuts either merging in their anti-American globalist doctrine or staying separate Left and Right. The latter would be fatal for both. This will not occur without lots of violence.
Also, it will occur with or without DJT. He is a strong rallying point for the moderate, anti Deep State factions but this change extends beyond him. His successor may be being groomed now. ???
It will start when the Leftist Democrats drum Biden out this fall. What will Biden do when the Leftists start to tear his America apart?
Or maybe not!
Except that Biden is globalist to his core. He only appears to be moderate. Mostly, he’s just vacant. The lights appear to be on – probably just from holes in the roof – but the house has been empty for years.
Ha, love your description.
Biden is what his puppet masters tell him to be. I agree with you, trying to keep all his directions straight may be too much for him to handle.
There are many more moderate Dems out there, a lot of them won House seats in 2018. Biden has to break from the Obama Clinton mold. I doubt he has the guts but we will see.
The Moderate Dems need a leader, perhaps Trumps’s successor.
Not possible?
How many folks thought that Trump would lay the ground work for cooperation with NOKO, China. And maybe Iran and Russia.
The MICC and the Deep State are having vapors.
Antifa is using something called a milkshake which is quick dry cement in a milkshake cup. Which these animals then throw at people and even in the wet form this is a nasty event should you not get it off fast enough it will dry and cause you major discomfort up to lye burns. If it has hardened you get a head ache like Andrew Ngo now in hospital with a brain bleed.
The Anti-fascists are the new fascist scum.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2019/06/andy-ngo-hospitalized-with-brain-bleed-from-brutal-antifa-attack-lawyer/
No, they fight the Fascists and the Fascists fight them. Get it straight. Fascism is a thing, not just a word for things you don’t like. Google it. Wikipedia is your friend, at least sometimes. The Arch Druid wrote a superb series of articles about the political philosophy of Fascism.
Poly Sci won’t teach it – even at the College level – so your confusion is understandable. It makes too much sense so they’ve encouraged its morph into a mere “snarl” word. But you’re a masterful man and I assume one who wishes to see past what is given to children. Hope so anyway.
You missed the point entirely and I am sure you did on purpose.
They claim to hate fascism and then engage in the very tactics they find objectionable.
I have stated several times many who decry fascism don’t even know what it really is or was and that it has many forms and flavors some less wholesome than others.
Nationalism is great and I applaud people who stand up for the their countries when they are in the right,
Why be a citizen of a country you don’t like?
In fact many here downright hate the Untied States of America to them I ask why not move somewhere you will approve of?
Fascism is just a European word for Nationalism. All Nations are established by violence (and yes there are other factors) and maintained by violence or the threat of it. The Left knows that. The Right – un-fucking-believably – does not. They’ve made fools out of the Right for generations now.
Of course they’re hypocrites. As Sun Tzu said, War is deception. A Raccoon was waltzing up to big Tom Cat on my porch, just whistling Old Man River or something. The Tom wasn’t fooled – hissing and swatting at him. Many have said Pit Bulls pretend to be friendly even as they ready for attack. Thank God for the Alt-Right who understand these things. Shame on you for not understanding.
alt -right is just another name for racists.
You say that like it’s a bad thing. But you’re fine with Non-White racism, also known as National or Ethnic pride.
Nope but thanks for attempting to put words in my mouth.
As a human racism is normal it’s built into our tribal DNA, anyone claiming to be free of it or bigotry is a liar and a bad one at that.
Just pointing out ALT right is progressive code for racist.
What separates us from animals is how we deal with each other especially our differences. I choose not to sink to the caste system of black bad white good rather it’s the attitudes and trash is trash.
We would have never taken America from the Indians with an attitude like that. And needless to say, we won’t keep it either at this rate. America is White or it is nothing. You have chosen the nothingness of national death.
It’s just so disappointing too Ben because you recognize that tribalism is natural and that racism is inherent. But you fall short of embracing these realities by stating that your ultimate goal is essentially color blindness as you recognize good and bad in all races. But that is a no-brainer since of course you have good and bad in all groups. But what of your group? You don’t have to dislike other races or consider all non-Whites to be less than simply because you choose to embrace your White Identity. That’s a false choice that society pretends exists. You can love all people and still be dedicated to your race. The sooner all Whites come to this realization the better.
@janos
Don’t confuse me as a pacifist.
Ore a measure of kindness as weakness.
Oh is this where you thump your chest and threaten to beat me up?
Two groups, one of which intends to win by any means necessary, and the other obsessed with Robert’s Rules of Order a la being nice. Now which group is going to win? That’s right: the Left if we keep on with your tack.
@Janos?
Threaten to beat you up?
Laughable that you see threat where there is none.
Just setting the record straight I don’t need to threaten people on the internet I’m to old to care.
You are still thinking inside the system John. It really is all pageantry. To me and you there is left, center, and right. To the people at the top who are running the entire theater there is only Power and Money. Left, center, and right makes no difference when you already own the keys to the kingdom. The left, center, and right are represented by chess pieces in their game. Any and all can be disposed of at any point. If DJT was elected without the consent of the Deep State in real life then he is the only and last example of such a thing. They will never allow it to happen again. If DJT wins in 2020 then you know he is one of them.
Yes, they almost invariably get off free or with mere reprimands no matter what they do – even attacking Trump’s motorcade.

Attack dogs of the Deep State
As the lights fade to blue, Rep. Jerrold Nadler – “Mr. Mueller how do we insure that the grand jury report stays sealed?”
As Mueller looks over his draft statement Reps. Collins, Jordan, Gohmert, and Gaetz are washed in white spot lights and lean forward in their seats and nod in agreement with Mr. Nadler’s interrogative.
Mr. Mueller -” It was not and is not my intent………”
In a faintly lit corner of the stage Mr. Comey smiles.
Watergate was a joke compared to what has happened under the Obama regime!
How anyone can say what was done and has been done is OK simply because you don’t like President Trump.
Turn about is fair play and it is going to get a lot uglier all these Democrats wanting Trump out under any means possible have not figured out they can just as easily be attacked in this manner.
In fact this game can be played on anyone reading this post.
Something to think about and don’t say you have nothing to hide because you are squeaky clean that is not the point the point is no one in a “free” society should have to endure this.
Chinese style censorship and totalitarian electronic persecution is being looked at all over the west as is cameras all over the place.
Do we all want to live under such style with the social credit score?

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/08/business/china-surveillance-technology.html
China is fully implementing the social credit system next year. Once in effect an individual’s score will effect everything from their purchasing power to where they can and cannot travel. I don’t doubt for one second that China is just the laboratory for this. The Globalists intend to use this system to govern the entire planet if they can indeed pull it off. The whole 5G implementation is part of this. Now that they have the population not only dependent upon but excited about every new little electronic gadget and digital device it will be much easier to convince people to give up all of their autonomy to AI and the internet of things. That is what progress is after all right? And god knows there must be progress at any and all costs!
And after that comes the chip. Refuse implantation of the chip, and your rating plummets. You may not even be able to buy or sell…..
Right. And people treat the Book of Revelations like it’s the record of a bad acid trip
You already have the mark it’s a social security number or a bankcard.
Last time I looked there was no SSN tattooed on my forehead or hand, pagan
Look again for those that refuse to see are blind in word and deed.
Yes I do believe the chip is part of it and will ultimately determine who is in and who is out. It will especially effect one’s ability to buy and sell in a cashless society. There will be no real way of escape at that point other than dropping off the grid altogether if possible.
That has already happen. Lots of people barred from travelling and have restrictions on buying and selling.
Certain corps doing it in the US, too. See Chase bank.
For starters, it would be good to recall the initial four pages of Attorney General Barr, summing up the preliminary results of a 2-year investigation by his friend Mueller, which Barr published the day after Mueller presented him a 500 page report.
And according to these 4 pages, Mueller didn’t find convincing evidence of Trump’s election campaign cooperation with Russian intelligence, and the evidence that Trump’s attempts to obstruct “justice” (by “justice” they understand an investigation of a crime he didn’t commit) that Mueller’s investigation was able to find is not enough for a court of law.
And after reading aforementioned four pages of Mueller’s friend Barr, I right away assumed that they do not absolve Trump from accusations of collaborating with Russian intelligence, they absolve Mueller from accusations of participating in a plot – an attempt to overthrow the lawfully elected US President.
And I can understand Mueller – his position is just awful. He is cleared of these charges thanks to his friendship with Attorney General Barr, and the people whom he led and whom he involved in this story are now forced to answer questions from John Durham investigating a crime for which an electric chair or lethal injection is prescribed in the US.
And the reason Mueller changed his mind and agreed to testify in Congress is that he afraid of Hillary Clinton – his Fuhrer – more than he is afraid of electric chair.
Hmmm? I wonder what she is holding over all these folks.
Modus operandi of the Black Project never changed over the centuries – to hold hostage family members.
Bernie Sanders, General Flynn, Donald Trump Jr.’s Meeting with Russia – just to name a few.
Does that include Bill Clinton’s tarmac meeting with Lorretta Lynch?
Remember how Trump was blackmailed in 2018, threatening to imprison his son for negotiations with Russian representatives in Trump Tower, which later turned out to be a setup by the Flying Monkeys (Natalia Veselnitskaya turned out was paid by Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS)
Jim,
I know this is off-topic, but have you checked your books’ listings on Amazon recently?
It has “A History of the Future” as the first book in the series, and “World Made By Hand” as number three; the exact opposite of there respective places. New readers would be rather confused if they purchased them in this order.
Maybe you have already seen this and contacted them, but then, being Amazon, it would not surprise one to know that you were completely ignored.
“their respective places.”
JHKs use of the English Language is truly the Treasure of our Tongue. Which is actually the title of a book . That explains the beginnings of the English language from its early start to our modern day usage .
Thanks for that, I’m going to look for the book.
Modern ‘Shakespearian’ dialogue, such as found (with pretty base profanities) in the work of David Milch in “Deadwood” is a real treat when delivered by such accomplished actors as Ian McShane.
If you haven’t seen it, it’s recommended. If you have, revisit it (after watching the new movie) and revel in the loquacity.
In response to numerous requests from the CFN readers(who of course completely missed that shit), I am authorized to announce that Vladimir Putin’s thermos with tea at the G-20 leaders dinner was a trolling of imperialism, and its meaning was that intelligence did not fail this time – The Russian President will not drink wine poisoned by NATO and ASEAN!

The Rise of White Supremacy
Just wondering if anyone here thinks this is a problem or just good clean fun? Did anyone catch Fareed’s special? Thoughts?
“CNN’s Fareed Zakaria, host of CNN’s flagship global affairs program, Fareed Zakaria GPS, feels it’s time Americans understand the modern explosion in white supremacy, why the ideology is growing in the U.S. and abroad, who the leaders are, and what they want. Zakaria’s STATE OF HATE: The Explosion of White Supremacy.
Yawn….
Are you saying that you think that “White Supremacy” (Aryan Brotherhood, “The Order,” KKK, etc.) is desirable, good, or what? Just wondering.
White Supremacy is code word for Whites looking out for their own group interests. This is forbidden activity, but only for Whites. Any other racial group can cherish and celebrate their customs, traditions, history (they get their own months of the year!) with abandon. As all groups should be allowed to do. But Whites with strong in-group preferences are labeled White Supremacists. Non-Whites with strong in-group preferences are simply called people who our proud of their origins and their behavior is considered so natural and normal that our government literally sanctions it with official celebration.
I think you left out the part that Whites are better than Blacks and Hispanics, that they deserve their own country, the Jews are evil, along with Muslims. You also didn’t mention Eugenics, Lynchings, death camps for the less than desirables and Nazis. I know those Nazis and KK’ers throw wonderful picnics and parades for the white kiddos, but they do some rather “unspeakable” things to, don’t they?
It’s a little different than just “white pride,” but, of course you know that and don’t care. Please continue, you’re free to be a “racist” in the USofA, if you wish. Like Trump says, “a lot of good folks,” unless you’re not a white hillbilly. All this, despite the fact the humans share 99.999% of the SAME DNA and they all bleed RED, but why quibble over scientific details, when it’s so fun and easy to hate? Why indeed?
Rats bleed red too, hines. And a people who don’t value themselves are not long for this competitive world. So speak for yourself, yourself alone.
And of course you assume all other groups are free from the above traits? Naif.
>>> “Rats bleed red too, hines.”
Quite right my dear Janos, and so do spiders and snakes, but rats, spiders and snakes are not human. Well, unless you consider… (fill in the blank yourself).
Get over the WHITE CULTURE shit. There is HUMAN culture and a lot of it really sucks. Read some history to see how wonderful the Whites (Vikings) and other European “cultures” (Celts, Franks, Visigoths) were. How about Alex the Great and his crew? Sweethearts, right? Napoleon, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin… Just fucking great too! Compassionate, caring, G_d fearing… not. How about our Spanish Conquistador friends and those quaint souls who gave us the Spanish Inquisition? Beautiful! Anyone for pulling out tongues and hanging folks by their thumbs? Well, those weren’t really people, were they Janos, just uspurers getting in the way of your vaunted Whites. I’m sick? Wrong answer – think again, ass opening.
Care much for unprovoked attacks, rape and pillage? How about killing of innocents? Oh, that’s quite all right isn’t it? Now you want to whine when YOU BELIEVE the shoe is on the other foot. Get over your lames ass, violent, crfuel, sick, white culture. It’s a mess and always has been. Just look at where it has gotten us to this point. Nice!
@jdhines
What I don’t see in your anti-white screed is the recognition of what other races have done as well.
How about the Mandella communist crew setting tires filled with gasoline alight upon peoples necks and watching them slowly roast? The crime speaking out about the evils of Communism and refusing to go along.
Or ripping the still beating hearts from peoples chests and selling the meat at local market?
Roasting people at the stake many Native Americans engaged in that as well as slavery?
Africans enslaving villages and selling them to Arabs who sold them to Dutch traders for the new world?
Hutu and Tutsi fun and games anyone?
Pol pot, Ida Amin, mao, Pinochet, Fujimora these are certainly not white people engaging in mass murder and mayhem. Sickness and chaos is part of the human condition and whites are no better at it nor worse than anyone else.
It’s clear JD is not interested in any real serious conversation on the matter. I mean he ONLY EVER mentions bad things if they are done by Whites. So we will never talk about how the Mongols and Huns and other assorted Asians brutally massacred so many people or how many millions have been slaughtered by Brown Muslims or burned alive and literally devoured by Black Africans. Nope. ONLY the White race is responsible for evil in the world according to JD.
If JD truly believes that Western, White culture is so bad then he would completely get offline and off grid and move to like Mauritania or something. But he won’t ever do that. Nope he will always feed at the trough of Western civilization. Sucking it dry all the while condemning the trough that feeds him.
You’re not Jewish, are you, hines? I notice how you always put a period in the name of God, like it’s some big deal to spell it out. Just wondering. You don’t have to be ashamed of it if you are.

Kathy Boudin was born on May 19, 1943, into a family with a long left-wing history. She was raised in Greenwich Village, New York City. Her family was Jewish.
Her great-uncle was Louis B. Boudin, a Marxist theorist. Her father, attorney Leonard Boudin, had represented controversial clients such as Judith Coplon, the Cuban government,[2] and Paul Robeson.[3] A National Lawyers Guild attorney, Leonard Boudin was the law partner of Victor Rabinowitz, himself counsel to numerous left-wing organizations.[4]
Kathy Boudin attended Bryn Mawr College and is a member of the class of 1965.[citation needed]
Boudin fell in love with David Gilbert in the 1970s and gave birth to their son Chesa in 1980.[citation needed] Chesa Boudin was adopted by former Weatherman leaders Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.[5]
Boudin was paroled in 2003 and has since been an adjunct professor at Columbia University and a scholar in-residence at the NYU School of Law. She is well known for her AIDS activism and scholarly work in education both during and since her release from prison.
leftist domestic terror group the Weather Underground (WU), Boudin was first arrested in 1970 after prematurely setting off a nail bomb she and another WU member were building and which was ultimately intended to be used against U.S. soldiers at Fort Dixon, New Jersey. Released on bond, Boudin skipped town only to reappear eleven years later working as a getaway truck driver with the Black Liberation Army in the robbery of an armored car carrying 1.6 million dollars.
The U-Haul getaway truck was spotted and two officers then pulled it over. However, they were expecting to be confronted with the Black men who had just been spotted robbing the armed car, not Boudin.
Police officers later testified that Boudin exited the vehicle with her hands up and implored them to lower their weapons even as two more officers arrived. Officers maintained that Boudin attempted to lull them into a false sense of security. Boudin maintained that she stayed silent.
Regardless, at no time did she warn them that there were six men armed with automatic weapons in the back of the U-Haul. As a result, when the robbers leapt from the back of the truck and opened fire on the officers they were caught completely unaware and two were killed.
Boudin, trying to escape on foot, was quickly nabbed as were most of the other robbers and WU members although two were shot and killed. Boudin was later tried along with the other members of the robbery crew. Boudin received by far the lightest sentence of 25 years to life perhaps because her father was a well-known and connected attorney himself and her attorney was able to arrange a plea bargain of one count of felony murder and one count of felony robbery. Most others involved in the robbery and shootings received triple that.
The UN includes in its definition of “genocide” the creation of conditions likely to lead, in whole or in part, to the elimination of a national, racial, ethnic or religious group.
The counterargument that non-Jewish whites are “not a racial group” can be refuted both with DNA evidence and by pointing out the existence of concepts such as “white privilege” and “white supremacy” as well as the existence of affirmative action programs that discriminate against whites.
Proof of “elimination” can be supported by the following facts: 1) without the explicit permission of whites, and often on the basis of deception, massive non-white immigration has been taking place into majority-white nations; 2) whites have been forced against their will to integrate with non-whites; 3) whites have been discriminated against in affirmative action programs that favor non-whites over whites in college admissions, corporate hiring, corporate promotion and government contracting; 4) non-whites are being encouraged,in tax-supported public universities, to hate and want to take revenge on whites; 5) media, licensed by government to use the airwaves in majority white countries, promote race mixing and intermarriage and portray white people as weak and ridiculous on the one hand, or evil on the other;
6) whites who speak out against these things are censored and retaliated against in the military, in public universities, and in corporations holding government contracts.
How about the massacre of white farmers in South Africa?
Anybody concerned about that?
Brh
some ON this board say it’s not happening because the BBC and other propaganda agencies are not talking about it.
Oh its happening.
And its just getting started. Wait til they’re (4 million remaining whites) get totally disposessed, not just farms and ranches, but all private property, that’s when the fun really begins. Some will get out, but at least half, 2 million, will be trapped.
Brh
My best friend fled from SA over twenty years ago.
He only has a nephew left there all his other family have left or died.
His Nephew was just denied a visa by the SA government even though he had some money and sponsors here in America.
The why they wanted to squeeze him for what money his family had left there.
Well, we are more concerned with the goings on in the USofA, of course, but I don’t see anyone advocating for the death of whites in SA here, do you? I for one don’t want any harm to come to the good white farmers, da Boers, as it were.
>>> “…the SA government even though he had some money… They wanted to squeeze him for what money his family had left there.”
Sounds a lot like the 1% does to us here in the USA. No good. I reckon the Boers did plenty of looting and squeezing themselves over the decades.
You mean turned a wasteland into something worth living in?
Obviously you have zero actual understanding of SA history.
I suggest you start actually looking into it.
The Boers? Are they White? That’s all hines needs to know. Ditto any and all Blacks. Wake the fuck up.
The Boers beat the british empire and outlived Chaka Zulu.
Tough hardy people even to this day Dutch and English stock. Don’t count them out just down and the half truths or outright lies about their country is what set them on this path.
Many a Zulu now wants White government back instead of communist shit shows and out right theft of everything.
Seeing as that the ANC in South Africa is simply the Elite of Xhosa tribe; and seeing that, as you say, many Blacks now regret the fall of White from power; and seeing that the Zulus may not be happy about it in particular – could a Zulu/Boer alliance be feasible in overthrowing them?
@JANOS
YOU TELL ME.
I saw a movie of one the Boer training camps. Huge caches of weapons apparently. As one of the older guys said, it takes awhile (they have classes), but the young guys come to realize that peace with the Blacks was never going to be possible. It was never in the cards. But an amazing number of people – even Whites who have fled South Africa – still don’t get this. You don’t get it either. This silly pseudo-Christian ideology of “peace” has completely conquered the White Race, perhaps unto our doom.
I so wish that you could attend one of these camps. The Boer Leader, Terry LeBranch (sp?) still didn’t quite get it either: he was slaughtered in his sleep by his house staff. He employed Negroes, trusted them with his life, and would have been grossly offended if you questioned him on this despite the countless other Whites who had been slaughtered by their servants. Mind blowing.
~Janos, are you referring to Eugène Terre’Blanche?
The guy who was jailed for assaulting a petrol station attendant and for the attempted murder of a black security guard? He only got 3 years, of course, but then he would, wouldn’t he?
And whose followers were linked to a number of bombings and assassinations?
That Terre’Blanche?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eug%C3%A8ne_Terre%27Blanche
They label anti-globalism as white supremacy so that that they can attack it openly and not have to deal with the law.
Same reason they can get cops to stand down while Antifa orcs attack innocent civilians.
Yes that is one aspect of it too. White Supremacy is anything supportive of the traditional Western world or culture. Also anything to do with European or American Nationalist movements. But White Supremacy can also be books, food, glances, unconscious hand movements, and so much more.
Why are people, including commenters here, so adverse to accepting that a bureaucratic establishment including the 2 sides to same coin party will do anything to ensure the status quo? To ensure that they go in investigated and un-prosecuted for a coup d’tat?
Fear?
Humanity hates staring hard and cold realities in the face.
Religion
Overpopulation
.. and their place as naive plebs in a plutocratic global power structure.
The people to that refuse to see Obama and Hillary investigated deserved to be ruled
And by extension, fooled
And used.
First off, it’s a 3-sided coin – the Red, the Black and the White.
Second, the people must learn who at any given moment is best to represent their interests.
It’s not the same!
Oh stop it with the sadism already! There are many here who see that the two parties are ultimately two sides of the same coin. People have their own biases of course though. In the instance of the general public what you say is true no doubt. But you know why. Our education system does not produce critical thinkers. Certainly it does not encourage questioning either. Unless your questioning your racial identity or sexual preference. That they can work with! Give the general populace a little slack. Most people are busy trying to make enough money to make sure the lights still turn on and something of what can be considered dinner can be put on the table. There isn’t a lot of time for thinking and when there is, well, there are a whole lot of distractions to keep people busy doing pointless and meaningless things. You know why that is too.
>>> “Why are people, including commenters here, so adverse to accepting that a bureaucratic establishment including the 2 sides to same coin party will do anything to ensure the status quo?”
Very few people on this blog are adverse to your statement, and most believe you are correct, as do I.
It is the second sentence where the problem arises.
>>> “To ensure that they go [u]n investigated and un-prosecuted for a coup d’[e]tat?”
If this was a “coup d’etat,” which I do not believe it was, it was certainly a quarter-hearted one, at best. Much easier to have achieved coup with a “lone” assassin. Why would the 2 sided coin party want to get rid of the guy who signed into law the huge tax giveaway to the patrons of the Deep State? Makes no sense.
It isn’t a giveaway, when they are keeping more of their own money.
Had a “lone assassin” occurred, they would not be able to contain the violence that would ensue.
Yes, that Swalwell doofus did claim the government would then nuke it’s own people, but that would be counterproductive.
Mr Kunstler previously explained the main objection to President Trump.
“People are not getting paid”, I believe was the phrase he used.
“its own”, sorry.
Sorry, I don’t follow your logic as to how this proves a coup d’etat. Why would the Deep State want to get rid of a dope like Trump that they can lead around by the nose? Please explain. He is not a Swamp Drainer, after all.
He openly opposes them. Please explain how he is being led around by the nose. In your own words and with concrete evidence.
Thanks.
@Nightowl
Good luck with that jdhines is one of legion not a lot of sense gets posted with that one a love of Socialist nonsense and mumbo jumbo.
Nightowl
Would you please clarify for me in what ways Trump ‘openly opposes them”? I ask because I genuinely do not know, and according to benr, I’m pretty fecking stupid. So help me out., huh?
Majella,
Pushing for a strong border, working to get corps to bring outsourced jobs back to the US, reinvigorating our industrial base, controlling immigration, taking an antiwar position on potential conflicts supported by the neocons and libs, and openly speaking against globalism (“nationalism not globalism will be our credo”).
Just off the top of my head. He is a globalist’s worst nightmare.
I realize you are running cover for Mr. Hines, who can’t answer my question, but this was easy to respond to. So hey ho.
@majella
Huge difference between clueless and stupid.
Pretty damn sure I never called you stupid.
That would be foolish in fact.
You advocate for a system that in the end is always destructive to a country and it’s people.
Mr. Nightowl,
“Pushing for a strong border” – Pushing for one, maybe, but certainly not achieving one, in fact the exact opposite. Due to his incompetence there are record numbers crossing the border as we er, write.
“working to get corps to bring outsourced jobs back to the US” – again, perhaps “working” to get jobs back, but not succeeding unless you count all the new “service” (low pay, can’t support myself) jobs
“reinvigorating our industrial base” – and this newly invigorated industrial base is where, Detroit, Akron, Pittsburg, Milwaukee – where exactly can we find this reindustrialization, pray tell?
“controlling immigration” – See item one = worse than ever
“taking an antiwar position on potential conflicts supported by the neocons and libs” – 10 minutes away from striking at Iran for the “drone” shoot down? Really?
“openly speaking against globalism (“nationalism not globalism will be our credo”).” – Again, SPEAKING, talk is cheap. He can talk, the talk (BS), but he cannot walk, the walk, unfortunately. Just ask Janos and SSL.
“He is a globalists worst nightmare” – Sure he is. That’s why he sends Ivanka all over the world trying to set up little distribution deals for her clothing line and other Trump assets. He’s quite the globe trotter (globalist trotter) as of late. Loves them ferners, Big Kim and Puttie Put and he’s very found of MBS and R. Duarte in the P.I too real true blooded ‘Merican he is.
JD,
Thanks for confirming my statements that he is against the globalist crowd on all visible fronts.
I did leave out his incredible work with North Korea, so let me amend my post retroactively.
>>> “It isn’t a giveaway, when they are keeping more of their own money.”
Ah, but that is where you are in error, definitely in error.
It IS a GIVEAWAY when they are reducing the ability to payback money that has ALREADY been spent (e.g. the $22 trillion debt) and the folks who have incurred it (those living now) will not be paying it back, but rather their grandchildren and great grandchildren, etc.
Well, of course, no one will be paying back, but that is beside the point. This is merely an extremely brief treatise on accrual accounting, debits and, of course, credits.
So to summarize, you are in favor of the wealthiest among us paying LESS TAX, even though we are deeply indebted, is that your position? You do realize that, if you give the wealthy tax cuts, the difference gets made up by the rest of us ordinary people, right? It just how this shit works… (in case you haven’t notice) and it has always been that way… everyone takes a hit to give the aristocracy a cushy life. Is that what you are for?
>>> “Had a “lone assassin” occurred, they would not be able to contain the violence that would ensue.”
Like happened after the beloved JFK was shot. Why do you talk as if you can foretell the future. Who knows what ANYONE will do in the future. Oh right, Beryl of Oyl knows, yes, that’s it.
>>> If this was a “coup d’etat,” which I do not believe it was, it was certainly a quarter-hearted one, at best.
You’re confusing means with motivation. Just because they tried a “soft” coup doesn’t mean they weren’t 100% motivated. Appearances matter. Perception matters. Removing Trump through violent means would open a pandora’s box of unanticipated consequences. They needed this to appear legal and above board. They had to convince a majority of Republican Senators to go along with it. And the only way that could have happened was a smoking gun. Mueller had two years to find or conjure one. Finally they settled on the oldie-but-goldie: obstruction. But that’s not good enough for Senate Republicans, so the coup failed.
I don’t know if you are one of the many 9-11 False Flag by the USA aficionados here on CFN, but if they could do that, don’t you think they could make it appear that a lone crazy, a la Lee Harvey O. took his Orangeness out if they wanted to. How about a fake heart attack? Who would question that, with the number of Big Macs, Fries and Coca Cola’s the president has consumed?
A nutbag like.. Seawolf?
Point being: it’s easier for people to choose not to believe that there is a deep state of bureaucrats and their plutocrat masters running the show than to accept it, all pregnant with their own powerlessness.
To accept that they cannot do anything.
It’s a human psychological phenomenon.
Why we have religion
and a burning and dying planet teeming with more helpless and useless capitulators.
Hey! Are you calling Ol’ Scratch a ‘nutbag’? Better watch out, Avatar…
Indeed they could have easily eliminated Trump if they had wanted to. That’s always puzzled me as well, as my first impression after he was elected was that was what would happen. But it also tells me that they had better uses for Trump, which we’re still seeing unfold. He’s certainly a favorite of the Zionists and the MICC now, so that’s always a plus. He’s divided DC straight down the middle providing cover for every manner of stupid behind the scenes shit and completely stalling any kind of coherent legislative agenda, and he’s completely discredited both the left and the right politically, thus utterly destroying what little faith anyone might have had in the ability of government to solve any problem in this country whatsoever, a feat that virtually no other politician now living could ever have pulled off. Quite a list of accomplishments indeed!
When it comes to the Deep State and hidden agendas you have to think deeper, much much deeper, as the Globalist Zionists giving the orders do. Putting a bullet in Trump’s head would have just been primitive, old school, mafia hit style shit, which, though it was all the rage in 1963 for someone who was actually a threat, is now just considered gauche and inefficient, especially when the prospective target is not a threat at all, but a YUUGE opportunity! Trump has overwhelming support from the rank and file in the US, the one group that could be a genuine threat to rise up due to their current circumstances, so that releases the building pressure from them. He also stirs up the passions and the fears of the upper middle class loony left who are about to be thrown in the same pit of despair as “the deporables” already inhabit, which, along with the hysterical MSM media, paints them as the incompetent and ineffectual idiots that they truly are. Meanwhile, perpetual war, big oil, and generalized corporate capitalism are all raging along as profitable and efficient as ever. Not bad results at all for the criminal elite who are presiding over the three ring shit show in DC.
So tell me again, exactly why would anyone want to do something stupid by killing Trump while all this is going on? Think bigger, focus softer, and all answers will be revealed.
And by the way, you’re an idiot if you haven’t looked into 9-11 – aka “America’s New Pearl Harbor.” The evidence has long since been in and it’s conclusive. Conspiracy “theory” is now conspiracy “fact.”
>>> “Point being: it’s easier for people to choose not to believe that there is a deep state of bureaucrats and their plutocrat masters running the show than to accept it, all pregnant with their own powerlessness.” (pregnant? Is that the word you wanted to use? Really?)
I think you have somethings confused here. Please see my post relative to the 2 sides of the same party that control everything and why they have decided that they actually love the Trumpster as he does their bidding pretty handily. Of course, they do not want to overthrow the loveable GGG! He does their bidding. Coup d’etat, my ass! For G_d sake, try to keep up!
As for 9-11 conspiracy facts, I have an open mind on that issue and have not taken the time to delve into that matter even a little bit. I’m still trying to come to grips with Cyrus II, Alexander the Great, Charlamagne, William the Conqueror and others, but I will get to it eventually.
If ‘Ol Scratch believes it to be true, it absolutely deserves a credible look. I mean, the devil himself, would know, right? It certainly is in the realm of distinct possibilities.
>>> “He (GGG) also stirs up the passions and the fears of the upper middle class loony left who are about to be thrown in the same pit of despair as “the deplorables” already inhabit, which, along with the hysterical MSM media, paints them as the incompetent and ineffectual idiots that they truly are.
A point of clarification please: “… the incompetent and ineffectual idiots that they truly are.” Is this referring to the loony left, the deplorables or both?
At any rate, the entire idea is well stated and I do concur with your assessment, as usual.
>>> “Think bigger, focus softer, and all answers will be revealed.”
Excellent advice; I will take this to heart!
I was going to say something like, once a reporter, always a reporter, but that doesn’t fit with the behavior of men like Dan Rather, Bob Woodward, and Carl Bernstein.
I think these three exemplify the dawning of the era of celebrity journalists, rather than the old-fashioned “reporters”, who were largely a disreputable lot.
he mission of our newspapers and television news programs switched from getting the story to bringing down a president, but nobody noticed.
That’s what got Dan Rather and Mary Mapes in trouble. He still insists his story on President Bush’s National Guard service was accurate.
It could have been, I don’t know.
What neither of them seemed to get, and don’t get to this day, is they started with the concept that they needed to stop Bush and the means came later.
Mary bemoaned the fact that due to personal issues, she had been unable to follow up on the Bush story earlier, when it could have influenced an election.
That’s bias, deciding who needs taking down, and then working backward.
That’s probably why Dan, who certainly knows how to investigate, basically leaves the Trump vs. Deep State story untouched.
Another example, Megyn “Who Was I” Kelly, just prior to the first Republican debate, celebrated prematurely that she was going to change the course of history.
An employee of a news organization, openly declaring that she is going to make news, not report it.
The only course she changed was her own career trajectory, but she came out ahead financially anyway. Oh well.
Ted Koppel recently touched on this issue, when he stated that journalists today are out to get President Trump, and that they do have a political bias.
Then he had to go and ruin this refreshing bit of ethical journalistic honesty by saying they may be right in thinking Trump is bad for the country.
I never subscribed to the notion that the MSM has a liberal bias. If they did, people like Dan Rather would be screaming about the violations of or civil liberties and rights under that Constitution he says he carries around.
What the MSM has is its own peculiar code, it could be called a media bias.
They all reserve the right to decide amongst themselves, who needs taking down, IN THEIR JUDGEMENT, and then they all become nothing but useful tools, passing along the propaganda “talking points” willingly.
Maybe this is what they learn when they go for their journalism degrees, who knows.
“who knows?”
Poor Meg thought it was alright for Whites to dress up as Blacks for Halloween. Racist! Nazi! No doubt jhines is pleased that she got her just desserts for her White pride (failure to crawl and cringe on cue).
She quite accurately said that back in the day, nobody thought anything of the various costumes kids dressed up in, including when they darkened their faces.
I found it strange when children were dressing as Freddy Krueger.
Atone for your whiteness Janos!!! Who is Meg anywho?
No!!!!!!! You need to atone for your race traitor status JD!!!!!!!! And really, you actually don’t know who Megyn Kelly is?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megyn_Kelly
Now Meghan McCain is typically referred to as “The Meg”. This is because many people joke that she is actually a Megalodon. But some people just settle for the fact that she may be a land whale.
Thanks for the zoology lesson SSL! It really is a zoo out there, Ha!
Might I add that I think you need to do a bit of atoning as well for your Far Right, KKK, White Supremacist leanings young lady? Not very Christian – no, not at all, definitely not Christian.
Did I mention that Christ was not white? You do know that, right? If he suddenly reappeared, would he be welcome in your imaginary, all-white enclave? I’m just wondering how he fits into this narrative. Please enlighten me.
We call her “McFat”.
Yeah all the unbelievers try to tell me that Jesus isn’t White. Funny since they don’t even believe he ever existed anyway. Well its really too bad for you that he is Caucasian. Do you think populations are static over time? You really believe that modern day Middle Eastern populations are exactly as they were 2,000 years ago? Anyhow Arabs are classified as Caucasians. Most darker Arabs are that way because of African admixture.
LOL McFat!
>>> “Yeah all the unbelievers try to tell me that Jesus isn’t White. Funny since they don’t even believe he ever existed anyway. Well it[‘]s really too bad for you that he is Caucasian.”
Yet more wishful thinking SSL? You get good exercise twisting yourself into logical puzzles, don’t you?
No, I don’t think that populations over time are static and that is why I know that, given enough time, there will be but one race, the human race, as sorry as they may be. It will be neither white nor black, but a kind of brown with hints of yellow and red MIXED in. it’s going to make it really difficult for your kind to keep score, as all teams will have the same exact jerseys!!! Yikes for the KKK et al!
“Yeah all the unbelievers try to tell me that Jesus isn’t White. Funny since they don’t even believe he ever existed anyway. ”
Of course he existed and of course he wasn’t white. Don’t be silly. But you believe what makes you happy. If it’s Fabio of Nazareth, go for it… The mind is a wonderful thing.
I never said he had blond hair Alba. Jesus had brown hair obviously, with some hints of red here and there. Same thing with his beard. Remember, we had this conversation before about how Muhammad had similar features and thats why the Muslims dye their hair and beards with henna so they can look more like the prophets.
And JD that is a common misconception that the races are going to merge into a single, generic race. Certainly that has been an underlying goal of the Satanists since the Tower of Babel. But God makes it clear that all nations (yes, plural) will worship him in the end and his Name shall be praised in all languages (plural too). So what more of a recognition and affirmation of the tribal nature of humanity would you care for? The Lord’s Word is enough for me.
“I never said he had blond hair Alba.”
I don’t recall mentioning his hair. 🙂
I’m more interested in (a) why it matters to you what colour he was, (b) why you think he wasn’t sent as a Shropshire Lad come to convert the Celts, and (c) what you’d do if he surprised you and came back as baby Chas from Chad (34% Christian, since you ask).
“The Lord’s Word is enough for me.”
Will it still be when he comes back as Chas from Chad, though?!
Last week’s democratic debates finally showed with crystal clarity -Hillary Clinton managed to completely finish off the US Democratic Party and, accordingly, the US bipartisan system, since after 2016 the Democrats were unable to nominate at least one candidate capable of attracting the attention of a democratic voter with a sane program.
Instead, all candidates try to imitate Bernie Sanders ala 2016 edition and trying to stand out from the crowd, making more and more “leftist” statements ala Leon Trotsky, and Bernie Sanders himself, who in 2016 was a sane EuroSocialist, now, having been in the hands of Bastinda, most of all looks like a broken toy robot.
He did stop combing his hair with that balloon, though.
Angela Merkel has been seen more than once now, shaking rather violently in public.
Nancy Pelosi, someone had to put out an actual doctored video featuring her frequent mental lapses, to counteract the real compilation video.
Yes, she has frequent mental lapses.
Diane Feinstein is 86 years old, for crying out loud.
Why don’t these elderly and/or infirm ladies leave the stage, go home and perhaps (Angela doesn’t have any) enjoy their grandchildren?
What do they have to gain, at this point.
The two Americans are already wealthy beyond the wildest dreams of most Americans, after careers in “public service”.
What do they have to gain, staying on past the point of pain?
Maybe a better question is, what do they stand to lose?
Let’s see, Obama bugged Angela’s phone.
Diane, she employed a Communist Chines spy for a couple of decades.
Or was it the other way around?
Chuck Schumer had dealings with a spy, a Pakistani one, come to think about it.
Could it be the loudest proponents of that wide open border are all compromised, in a serious way?
No, I’m not talking about the cute but slow one, with her theatrics over a parking lot.
I’m talking about the old guard, who won’t leave government any way but feet first.
What is their motivation?
I know what Bernie’s is, he’s become one of those millionaires he decries himself.
He’s even started caring about personal grooming.
Bidens are rolling in the dough, what with those sweet contracts with Chinese and Ukranian security services, and Joe’s fee of $250,000 per speech … that beach house in Delaware wasn’t cheap, at least $3 mil. We won’t even mention the manse in the Virginia countryside … the man lives in style, got a problem with it?
Brh
Breadline Bernie, Uncle Joe, let ’em enjoy their golden years,
What, you got something against the elderly?
The path is open for a Buttplug/Williamson ticket.
Its a new day,
Brh
>>> Diane Feinstein is 86 years old, for crying out loud.
One can only imagine that there was some cringing by Feinstein, Pelosi, Schumer, Sanders, etc., at calls for Biden to “pass the torch”.
The obvious retort wasn’t used, which is that the party of “diversity” shouldn’t be discriminating against others on the basis of age, and to remind Harris and Swalwell that age is a federally protected class. Biden could have locked in the entire elderly demographic.
No fair on Bernie making a few bucks. Most people who own a home in No Cal are ‘millionaires’ based on their property values alone.
Bernie speaks about the ‘millionaire class’ like Pelosi, worth more than 300 times what he’s worth. Your calling him out for EARNING a taxable income that took him to that level is just shitty-bitchiness. If his books hadn’t sold – that is, been in demand – he wouldn’t have succeeded. I don’t know what precisely they sell for, but it won’t be much more than his $27 average donation in 2016.
More power to his arm.
And yet he still makes excuses for his achieving 1% status.
Bernie is a fraud from start to finish.
benr – your constant anger & raging jealousy just make me laugh.
Please tell – just what ‘excuses’ has he made? And besides, if his books stop selling, that income could dry up as quickly as it arrived. Sic semper gloria mundi.
FYI, maybe YOU’RE in the 1%!
“Just how much do you have to pull in to join the 1 percent?
A minimum family income of $421,926, according to a new report from the Economic Policy Institute (EPI), which used the latest available data to analyze how the top 1 percent of earners, and the bottom 99 percent of earners, across the U.S. have fared between 1917 and 2015.
In affluent metropolitan areas, however, the threshold is much higher. In New York City, for example, your household needs an annual income of $744,426 to be in the 1 percent of earners. In San Francisco, it’s $943,782.
There are even a handful of metro areas where the threshold is above $1 million, notably Jackson, Wyoming, home to extremely wealthy residents like former Vice President Dick Cheney and Walmart heiress Christy Walton. In Jackson, you have to make $1.7 million to be among the 1 percent.
Keep in mind that these numbers just represent the threshold you have to cross — the average income of the top 1 percent nationwide is $1.32 million. In the Jackson metro area, it’s $16.2 million.
The other 99 percent, on the other hand, earn an average of $50,107 a year. That means that, in 2015, the EPI reports, “the top 1 percent of families in the U.S. earned, on average, 26.3 times as much income as the bottom 99 percent.”
Since it globalist pushing this 1% narrative they don’t think locally or even nationally so your NUMBERS are way off.
I do mean way off so all of your numbers mean nothing you need to figure the global high and low and derive the number.
I thought I saw somewhere it was around 72,000 a year.
Oops according to this website I am way off as well.
Ranking by Income
According to the Global Rich List, a website that brings awareness to worldwide income disparities, an income of $32,400 a year will allow you to make the cut. $32,400 amounts to roughly:
28,614 euros
2.307 million Indian rupees
218,532 Chinese yuan
So if you’re an accountant, a registered nurse or even an elementary school teacher, congratulations. The average wage for any of these careers falls well within the top 1 percent worldwide.
We have homeless people panhandling that make that much a year.

Here’s an interesting quote, by someone calling himself Ace of Spades:
“The leftwing and the media that serves it weren’t upset that Trump was “colluding with Russians.” What always maddened them was that Trump was colluding with Americans.”
http://acecomments.mu.nu/?post=382060
Colluding with the Working America!
Trump, who was sitting next to Merkel in Osaka, threw in information that the US Democratic Party is going to rename itself into the Socialist Party of the United States, and Merkel had an expression on her face that he had said into the US National Socialist Party.
Well, the indignation of “experts” that Trump violated the tradition of forbidding criticism of domestic political opponents outside the US can be neglected after Trump’s internal political opponents mixed him with shit when he was in Helsinki and Hamburg, but commentator’s reaction to this incident forced me to go back and review all recent Trump’s interviews.
And I came to the conclusion that Trump “blurted out” about his readiness to get acquainted with the compromising material on his opponent in the election campaign, and only after call the FBI because he had already received such compromising material from another power and wants to declare it openly, because such compromise requires indication of sources of its receipt.
And it could be anything: from 33 e-mails that Hillary Clinton erased when they were under the subpoena of the Congress, or even about the connection of the US Democratic Party with the National Socialist Party of Germany through the Bormann’s Nazi money.
Speaking of Hillary and e-mail, I wonder when we are going to be hearing more about Anthony Weiner’s computer’s contents.
The goal should be restoring the Constitutional order in the United States, not providing the respected public with XXX-rated Infotainment.
I was thinking of all the e-mails that didn’t get deleted while under subpoena.
Huma and Anthony are still married, as far as I can tell.
I find that interesting.
Sex addicts, I suspect.
No, she made a big deal about announcing the divorce. Twice. Are you saying that wasn’t real or it didn’t go thru? Or are they still living together despite it?
Couldn’t find a button to reply to Janos.
Huma withdrew her divorce petition early in 2018.
https://www.businessinsider.com/anthony-weiner-huma-abedin-divorce-case-private-2018-1
Not unusual, they were going to work out the terms outside the media.
But if she has refiled her petition, it hasn’t made the papers.
Huma and Anthony are still married. I’m not sure what her story is but he is apparently still involved in quite a bit of dalliance….
https://nypost.com/2019/06/29/anthony-weiner-spotted-brunching-with-mystery-woman-on-wall-street/
They stayed together for the sake of their son. Makes a lot of sense since this type of thing happens every day. Sometimes divorce is just not an option nor an answer. She obviously can’t live without him, nor with him really. And who knows what his side of the story is.
Funny man, Ricky Gervais, makes a good point:
It’s interesting that the people who believe that throwing a milkshake in someone’s face shouldn’t be considered assault are often the same people who believe that ‘saying things’ should be.
JS: One remember Alba and Elrond chuckling after a British politician got milkshaked. And both of them are down with the speech as violence idea. The Worms and the Spice – is there a connection?
I’m happy to chuckle at Farage and then chuckle at the milk-shake thrower being taken away and charged with assault. I said I didn’t believe in milk-shake politics, but I can still have a laugh at Farage.
I believe you prefer presidential candidates who tell the punters, nostalgically that hecklers used to be carried out on stretchers.
I pointed out at the time (of the milk-shake assault) that Ed Miliband dealt with his own episode of eggy assault with much greater style than Nigel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-FfVshrIcY
That’s the way to do it…
That “egg attack” honestly appeared to be staged. Ed didn’t even seem all that surprised. I wonder if this is just theatrics to elicit exactly the reaction you had. That Ed Miliband simply handles everything with so much more grace and style than Nigel Farage could ever muster.
I would have had more respect for Ed if he would have taken the eggy mess and smeared it onto the face of his “attacker”. But then again I like a more “in your face”, “brawly” type of style. There is a lot of grace and dignity in chuckling at your opponents. Simply follow up the laughter with a “bless their hearts” and you’re good to go.
“That “egg attack” honestly appeared to be staged. Ed didn’t even seem all that surprised. I wonder if this is just theatrics to elicit exactly the reaction you had. ”
Seriously, SSL, you are beyond help.
Seriously, Green Alba, screw you.
Erudite and convincing as ever, malthie, old chum.
You do know that the egg incident was 7 years ago?
No, no reason why you would.
And, no, grace and style was never Ed’s forte. See ‘Ed Miliband and the bacon sandwich’. This was an exception, but entirely the way to deal with something that silly.
But yes, you are beyond help in the conspiracy game.
“I would have had more respect for Ed if he would have taken the eggy mess and smeared it onto the face of his “attacker”. “
I’ll let him know for next time. I’m sure your respect is something he just wouldn’t want to be without. And, since you like a more ‘in your face’ ‘brawly’ type of style, I’ll tell Nigel to stop whingeing like a big girl’s blouse over a milk shake too. Given that Aaron Banks seems to have subbed him half a million that he er…forgot to declare when he was still an MEP, I’m sure he can afford the dry cleaning bill.
Well it did look funny but of course you know more about it than I do. I would hope that Ed would want my respect if I were a UK voter. And yeah I wouldn’t like Nigel whining about anything either. But I do have a question. I am sure that the “milkshake attack” was more of a big laugh over there compared to Ed’s “egg attack” no? Sort of like over here the only thing you ever see if you ever turn on any mainstream channel are people making fun of Trump, Trump supporters, red states, and then Trump again.
They got pretty much the same coverage. In fact Ed’s media detractors spent far more time having a go at him. He spent his short career having people take the piss out of him.
Like I said, check the bacon sandwich. And then the ten commandments. And on top of that he had to deal with antisemitism. They even tried to attack him with allegations about his father. There’s a lot of barrel scraping goes on in the UK ‘popular’ press.
“brawly”, like your now Feet of Clay ex-idol, Trump.

I almost guessed: out of the four hours of Sunday political broadcasts, very important statements by Donald Trump at a rally in Orlando, Florida, in particular, the statement that he was running for a second term and intends to make the issue of Hillary Clinton one of the main themes of his election campaign, was given a total of two minutes.
It’s funny that this is exactly the sign of the election campaign that has begun, because thanks to it, this information is no longer information, but the enemy’s propaganda from the point of view of American journalists.
And this is almost not connected with the aforementioned minutes, but with the fact that one of the best US journalists, Chuck Todd, the host of the Sunday political program “Meet the Press”, on June 23, at the request of Trump, took a live interview where Trump’s election campaign, announced June 19, was also not mentioned.
Despite this, on the democratic forums Chuck Todd is already being called a rat that escaped from the Clinton’s ship, and I’m not surprised if this is the case, although I think this interview is actually an act of jealousy of George Stephanopoulos, who on June 17 Interviewed Trump in which the US President “let it slip”, answering Stephanopoulos’ direct question, that if a foreign country, such as Norway, offers him compromising material to his opponent on an election campaign, he will first get acquainted with this compromising information, and only then may call and notify the FBI or the Attorney General.
Moreover, he said this allegedly in a fit of rage, remembering how he was blackmailed in 2018, threatening to put his son in prison for negotiations with Russian representatives.(3:30)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2nkQMZEI6Q
George Stephanopoulos is the son of the Archbishop of the Greek Orthodox Church, and many consider him the chief architect of the (Hillary) Bill Clinton victory in 1992, for which his father was rumored to have driven him out of the house.
I saw him at the jazz club “Blue note”, when he, realizing what he had done, was on the verge of suicide and got into a psychiatric hospital, the one in which John Nash was “treated”.
Nevertheless, the treatment went to his advantage, and, having left this hospital, he realized that he had nowhere to go and had to return to the Diocese of Hillary Clinton – he began working on TV channel 7, cutting Hillary 30% of his salary (which became the subject of a big scandal when he was a moderator at the presidential debate in 2016).
And I repeatedly paid attention that very often he, attacking opponents of Hillary Clinton, actually rolled the ball into their penalty area. In particular, in this interview in response to a question from Stephanopoulos, Trump, allegedly making a mistake, said that the question about Hillary Clinton is actually a question about relations with Russia.
And after watching the interview with Chuck Todd, which took place 3 days after Trump announced his election campaign and 6 days after Stephanopoulos’ interview, Chuck Todd got into the trap set for him and asked Trump about his attitude to impeachment, and I understood that Trump outwitted everyone again. It was with this question that Trump himself planned for the question posed by Stephanopoulos, which in those 6 days drove the American democratic (Clinton) hangout batshit crazy. And I realized that he demanded a live interview just for this (23:00)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBglxa6K8gc
Naturally, I was looking forward to the program “Meet the Press” yesterday, assuming that this week Chuck Todd would understand what happened a week ago and show himself in all his glory, especially considering he was the only one “democratic journalist” who three years ago told about the book “Clinton Cash”, in which in every detail was outlined how much Germany and Saudi Arabia contributed to Hillary Clinton’s election campaign.
And yesterday was the 85th anniversary of the Night of the Long Knives.
And Chuck Todd did not disappoint me. In a dull voice, he talks about what all the other political programs said yesterday:
Namely, about Trump’s “spontaneous” visit to North Korea, about the problem of illegal emigration, no different from a similar problem in Russia and in Europe, and also about one of the few journalists supporting Trump Tucker Carlson, who I remember a month ago, when he publicly considered the problem of illegal emigration in terms of the general crisis of capitalism, and now shook American society, dissuading Trump from bombing Iran.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=An-erzs4xLg
P.S. Reviewing the interview with Chuck Todd I once again want to draw your attention to Trump’s emphatic respectful attitude towards Barack Obama, and I came to the conclusion that Trump already got the evidence of a Hillary Clinton coup d’etat on June 10, 2016, about which I wrote many times.
“…the statement that he was running for a second term and intends to make the issue of Hillary Clinton one of the main themes of his election campaign..”

Bad news for KDog, GA, and other climate change fans.
Russia is deploying a floating nuclear power plant (NPP) into the Arctic Ocean. The Akedemic Lomonosov carries two reactors which will generate enough heat and electricity to service an industrial city of 100,000, from which Russians will extract natural resources from Arctic territories, namely oil and natgas.
Russians think big.
Has this been approved by the honchos in Brussels enforcing the Paris Accord? What, Commissar Putin didn’t ask permission?
Looks like its game over.

Wit one!
Let us send AOC over to negotiate climate change with the Russians.
Or better yet send the 2020 Democratic debate team over to Russia to tell Putin he cannot explore for oil or gas. Hmmm? I wonder what they (he) would say?
When they are done convincing the Russians, we will send them to China.
They better hurry, we only have 12 years left!
Apparently, this is merely the first of many.

I am sure that this is going on all over the world. The sheer number of missing children every year is astounding. It seems impossible for so many to literally just disappear.

Here’s what he says at 8 minutes 40 seconds: “I think it does mean challenging and upending the systems of power that [are] sort of based on this system and maintaining it. And that’s a real challenge to people, those of us who work within current systems of power.”
That’s it. Mitigating the consequences of climate change may be the best we can hope for at this point. But if you’re not talking about a real challenge to power, you’re resigning the world to consequences without mitigation.
Do you know, has Putin read that report, GA?
Brh
I doubt he’s very interested in what goes on in the University of Cumbria, brh.
But most people reading it wouldn’t believe it. There’s a section on denial, even among the environmental community, that’s worth reading.
My guess is that people like Putin don’t think they personally need to worry (and nor does he, compared to most people – he’s amassed an unimaginable fortune). I think we’re all capable of processing information like that and being horrified, then going back to our normal lives and thinking ‘it can’t really be that bad, can it?’, when everything still seems relatively normal, bar the odd bad storm or wildfire. We all compartmentalise, and I think people with that sort of power probably do it more than most. Helplessness before something as big as climate change is not an emotion they willingly submit to.
And, as the author says, in different words, we’re on a roundabout that we’ve made it almost impossible to get off.
No-one with sufficient power has the guts to (a) take it on board personally, then (b) stand up and say it. And nobody will probably ever stand up and say it, then submit themselves to the ballot box. You can very easily get killed for undermining the beliefs that people’s lives are built on.
It’s no different from the energy supply issue – just depends which one becomes impossible to deny first.
But no planning can only be worse than planning. And you can’t plan if you won’t accept reality.

She also insisted that she had been a personal stewardess to US Presidents on Airforce One. After I fired her, the last that I heard she ran off to Hawaii to have her tits cut off as a preemptive move like that big Hoywood movie actress married to Brad Pitt.
She reminds me a bit of Beto….

if a foreign country, such as Norway, offers him compromising material to his opponent on an election campaign, he will first get acquainted with this compromising information, and only then may call and notify the FBI or the Attorney General.
One thing is clear, Trump purposely hints at having the dirt on the Democrats because he needs impeachment, and the Democrats, in fear of the unknown, will deliver him this pleasure, despite Nancy Pelosi desperate resistance, after which the Senate trial will raise the question not about Russia’s interference in 2016 elections, but that the information they published was not false, and those responsible for these manipulations in the electoral process cannot blame Trump for allegedly receiving this information from another state, and this opens the way for the publication of compromising material that he got stashed for 2020.
I’d like to see Jim get back to topics on which he’s more fully informed. Jim suffers from confirmation bias just as do we mere mortals. Jim’s filter bubble has him equate the alleged email scandal of the Clinton campaign to the rest of Trump’s activities before and after he became commander-in-chief.
It ain’t the emails, it’s the illegal server(s!!) outside the US Government secured system with tons of classified materials, including the identities of US undercover agents, hacked by entire planet.
Just transferring such classified materials to that server(s) is a crime in itself under the US Espionage Act and still NOBODY could explain how Hillary did it, but one thing’s certain – there ain’t legal ways to do that.
JHK:
“Mr. Mueller’s notion of testimony-by-script is at least as unorthodox as his innovation of pronouncing the object of his criminal inquiry “not exonerated,” an unprecedented and certainly extra-legal spin to the prosecutorial standard of finding an indictable offense or not — without added aspersions, insinuations, and defamations.”
In a binary judicial system, there’s only room for “Innocent” and “Guilty”, hence JHK’s characterization of Mueller’s pronouncement as ‘unorthodox’.
However, in the Scottish legal system, there is the unique verdict option (I think, unique to Scotland – I trust GA will correct me on this if I’m wrong) that a jury can bring down, that of ‘Not Proven’.
I think that is what Mueller was trying for – “hey, he’s as guilty as the day is long, that’s as obvious as the bollocks on a racing hound, but we can’t quite PROVE it in this case, given he’s, you know, the ‘Prez’…”
I think it is unique to Scotland, Majella, but there has been pressure for some time to get rid of it. It’s unflatteringly known as ‘the bastard verdict’, since it leaves suspicion even when there is no proof of wrongdoing.
It’s obviously true that with the binary system some people will be acquitted when they were indeed guilty of wrongdoing, but that’s the price we pay for minimising the number of innocents who are wrongly presumed guilty.
As they say, the law can’t always dispense justice – it can only dispense the law.
Thanks, Green Alba
I’ve done a little research on it now
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_proven)
Originally, it actually WAS a binary system – ‘Proven’ or ‘Not Proven’ – till 1728 when a jury asserted ‘its ancient right’ to declare a defendant ‘Not Guilty’. Thereafter, there have been these two acquittal options.
While I can see your point about ‘the bastard verdict’, I also can see its use in situations like Mueller’s decision, as it captures the concept that he’s not exonerated.
“As they say, the law can’t always dispense justice – it can only dispense the law”
I’ve often felt that the law & justice can be complete strangers to one another.
I’d agree with you there, Majella, although I don’t agree with those who are totally cynical about it. The adversarial system unfortunately means that sometimes it’s just the person who can afford the best lawyer who wins, but that’s far from being the case in the majority of instances, I think.
And sometimes when justice has not been done, it’s been the police who have been discovered to have withheld critical evidence (to the point where the London Met.(back in the days of such famous miscarriages of justice as the ‘Guildford Four’ and the ‘Birmingham Six’) were jokingly referred to as ‘sponsored by Tippex’, in pre-digital days).
At least in this country you can get Legal Aid if you’re poor but the income levels necessary to qualify have gone down so much over the years that only those with no savings and the very lowest incomes may get it. I benefited from it myself some 30-odd years ago – not for anything criminal, I hasten to add 🙂 .
It’s true the legal system generally benefits most those who most resemble its majority members – white, middle class (UK sense), educated and well spoken.
I’m only talking about the UK system, obviously.
I read that Trump calls Mueller a “Man out of the blue,” appointed by an obscure Justice Department official without confirmation. It was an investigation that actually began with Trump’s own decision to fire James Comey, while Comey headed an investigation into possible Trump campaign ties to Russia.
As I remember, the attacks began immediately after Mueller’s appointment, and have never abated. What I can’t figure out, is why they’re still attacking Mueller after they say his report exonerates Trump. What more could they want? I suppose Mueller committing seppuku on the Capitol steps would help heal the wounds he caused Trump to suffer, unjust as they were, and the Deep State, don’t get me started! It’s pretty obvious to the enlightened, that the Deep State is simply the new form that the Illuminati has chosen to help enhance it’s rule of the world. A suggestion; every time you read the words “Deep State”, replace them with ” Illuminati “, and see if everything doesn’t add up all of a sudden
The problem is: there really IS a loose group of people trying to run the world, but using the “Deep State” to excuse every misdeed committed in D.C., allows the Deep State to mock it all as radar chaff, thrown up to obscure the actual maneuverings going on in that city. What you all call the Deep State is really very happy with the confusion that is being caused. It makes their job easier.
The Deep State is the working arm of the Illuminati (a highly dramatic term, to be sure). The Illuminati decides and gives the orders, the Deep State executes them. The only thing that can cure the Deep State and its Unholy Crescent (DC/NYC, London, Tel Aviv/Jerusalem) is total dissolution. Probably not going to happen in our lifetimes.
That’s actually a very concise and clear description of some of their machinations there Ol’ Scratch. So the Deep State is literally the hands and feet of the Elite. The foot soldiers and the movers and shakers. And the Illuminati is like the Elite’s brain trust. The Illuminati is like Dr. Claw and the Deep State are like M.A.D. agents.
There ya’ go, SSL!
>>> In a binary judicial system, there’s only room for “Innocent” and “Guilty”, hence JHK’s characterization of Mueller’s pronouncement as ‘unorthodox’.
We also have nolo contendere. It’s not an admission of guilt. It merely means you don’t wish to contest the prosecution.
Why would someone do this? Imagine for example that the result of NOT contesting the prosecution makes no difference to you. Or maybe the court’s “remedy” for winning the case is not acceptable to you. So there’s no point in being involved in a costly and lengthy process that offers you no benefit and no effective loss.

It will all go down the Memory Hole, flushed away with maybe the exception of a few embarrassing shit stains left over by such federal intel officers like Strzok. The institution protects its own jealously.
Agreed. We’ve already seen this thing strung out for so long that no normal person can make any sense of it. Historians will waffle, a few highly dramatized books will be written by participants and well-connected observers, and we’ll move onto the next faux high drama. If it weren’t for the internet, absolutely no one would have ever paid any attention to any of this at all. TV would have long since written it off as incomprehensible and lacking in compelling human interest. Needs more sex, in other words.
If Mueller actually does show up to Nadler’s 3 Ring Circus on the 17th, he will continue to do what has been doing since the beginning. Obfuscation.. like his quickie “news confab” that he had a few weeks ago where he said cryptic statements similar to “there isn’t enough evidence to convict Trump… but… if there were. .it would be up to Congress”..
LOL
White Man speaks with Forked Tongue
I predict he will follow the Democrats lead down the obstruction obfuscation and try to nail Trump with his Deep State allies. The whole result will depend on how effective the GOP members are in exposing the hypocrisy of the whole thing. Should be interesting!
yeah you might be right
Yes, this is the same man whose FBI gave billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein like 13 months in prison for like a prostitution charge when it was clear that he routinely assaulted underage girls on his Pedophile Island or whatever its called. When you have lots and lots of money you can pay your victims and your prosecutors off apparently.
Oh, right – Pedo Island, as visited by Trump, Clinton, Prince Andrew et al. Utterly shameless wheelin’n’dealin’ to get out from under actual punishment. Truly disgusting and in plain sight. SSL, we agree on something. *faints*
I thought this would make the second thing we agreed on so you can probably hold off on the fainting. I like to save my NFEs for really big events. And for when a little extra drama feels right.

“Men are almost 40% more likely to be narcissists.”

“Men tend to be more narcissistic than women.”
Well yeah, but we’re damn good at being narcissistic, and we take great pride in it!
😉
Well indeed, Scratch, and look where it got you. No nice harp music for Old Nick. 🙂
My complexion goes well with flames. It’s all about the proper look, don’t ya think? Besides, there would be no heaven without a good and proper hell to offset it.

I would not put too much faith in those statistics. Granted, there are gender differences in how males and females react to mistreatment, but we really don’t have a good handle them.
For a long time it was said that dissociative personalty disorder (“multiple personality”) was almost exclusively female, but there is disagreement on that now (among the “multiple personalities” there is always an aggressive, avenging personality). If you think a dissociative female is less destructive than a narcissistic male you need to get around more.
Most people, when they talk about narcissism are talking about malignant narcissism which is a lot more than just being overly concerned about one’s image.
The whole field of “abnormal” psychology is in transition. In the past it was mostly bullshit while today it seems to be less, but a lot of that is because they have eschewed sharp definitions and admitted their ignorance.
“If you think a dissociative female is less destructive than a narcissistic male you need to get around more.”
I don’t recall saying any such thing. Why are you concerned about my social life?
I know that women are more likely to have personality disorders than men. But the psychopaths remain resolutely majority male.
As do the narcissists.

Watching the Antifa demonstration mob in Portland. They were carrying a sign saying “Stop Nazis”.
It dawned on me that we are watching a separatist group trying to put political pressure with violence against a standing government and attacking proponents of the status quo. The standing government was lawfully elected.
Exactly the same as the Nazi Brownshirts raising hell in Germany and doing exactly the same thing. Antifa, you are what you condemn, you are the Nazis.
I hope they can that stupid mayor. What the hell has happened to the West Coast, they are insane!
Oh Lord give me strength. Did you eat today, John? Nazis eat too. You’re a Nazi.
The rank and file are wastrels. Their Leaders are not and liason with the Deep State. They are far smarter than you are. They understand politics and life. You do not. And even the Wastrels feel they are right and deserve to win against their opponents. To that extent, they are healthy. You are not since you don’t want to win if that means you’re a “Nazi”. And a “Nazi” is whatever they say it is. You are surrendered to your enemies and you simply don’t have the self knowledge to see it.
If you got one to talk (they are notoriously unwilling to explain themselves), he would just shrug his shoulders at your charge. Nazis and Police are violent – and we’re not letting them get away with it, he would say. Your point would be lost on him and he would be right because that was never his point to begin with. You’re simply projecting your own confused understanding of life onto a completely different kind of person.
If you could get one of the smarter ones, you might make an impact by pointing out that he wants most of the same things the big Corporations want – as in open borders for starters. And then you might socked in the nose or something to ease his discomfiture.
What does the Bible say about Slavery? The Koran seems to have institutionalized Slavery. Wasn’t Obama’s African dad a Muslim? There was that photo of Obama wearing that A-Rab outfit…,
“Few men of his era spoke out as passionately against slavery as Livingstone. To eat food that was paid for with money earned from slavery was against everything for which he stood. In his journal there was no attempt at rationalization, just a matter-of-fact admittance that he’d come across a caravan led by a slaver named Magaru Mafupi. The slaver was a “black Arab,” born of an Arab father and African mother. The lineage might have confused the outside world, but Livingstone knew well the symbiotic relationship between Africans and Arabs. Although Europeans perceived the African continent to be an uncharted land populated by indigenous cultures, the truth was that Arabs had lived alongside Africans for over a thousand years. It was the seventh century A.D. when Arabian ships began trading beads for ivory with Bantu tribes along the East African coast. A mingling of their cultures began: The Arabs brought Islam; Swahili, meaning “coastal,” was formed by merging Arabic and Bantu; the financiers of India and Persia set up shop in Zanzibar to outfit caravans; African men found work hauling ivory, giving birth to the occupation of pagazi—porter. Little boys of the Nyamwezi tribe even carried small tusks around their village, training for the great day when they would join the mighty caravans. That relationship between Arab and African had been corrupted, though, as slavery became lucrative in the sixteenth century. Losers in war were routinely enslaved, and children were often kidnapped as their parents worked the fields. As early as the seventh century, men, women, and children from subequatorial Africa were being captured by other African tribes and spirited north across the Sahara’s hot sands. Two-thirds of those surviving the epic walk were women and children about to become concubines or servants in North Africa or Turkey. The males comprising the remaining third were often pressed into military service.“

Into Africa: The Epic Adventures of Stanley and Livingstone
Slave Registers from London Name the Slaves Kamala Harris’ Ancestor Owned
Patrick Howley, Big League Politics, July 1, 2019
Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is descended from Irish slave owner Hamilton Brown, the namesake of Brown’s Town in Jamaica, who recruited massive numbers of Irish migrants to Jamaica to work on his sugar plantations after the British empire abolished slavery.
Kamala Harris’ father Donald Harris wrote an essay entitled “Reflections of a Jamaican Father” for Jamaica Global Online, in which he made a startling admission (emphasis added):
Hamilton Brown was not only a slave owner, but also an engineer of mass Irish migration to Jamaica after the British empire abolished slavery in 1834.
Jamaican Family Search recorded: “Hamilton Brown owned several plantations over the years 1817 to about 1845. According to the 1818 Almanac which can be found on this site, (Jamaican Family Search) , he was the owner of Minard (128 slaves) which he must have acquired from its previous owner (John Bailie) in 1815 or later. The number of slaves on this estate approximates the number of slaves in one of the registers attributed to his ownership (124 slaves). The other register (86 slaves) cannot be assigned to any estate, although he is listed in Almanacs for subsequent years as owning several, (Antrim, Grier Park, Colliston, Little River, Retirement and Unity Valley).”
Here is a full accounting of the slaves owned by Hamilton Brown, according to the National Archives in London, as of June 28, 1817 in the parish of St. Ann in Jamaica:
Hamilton Brown officially swore to the authenticity of this record, stating:
“I Hamilton Brown do swear that the above list and return consisting of two sheets is a true perfect and complete list and return, to the best of my knowledge and belief in every particular therein mentioned of all and every slaves possessed by me as owner, considered as most permanently settled, worked and employed in the Parish of Saint Ann on the twenty Eight day of June One thousand Eight Hundred and Seventeen without fraud, deceit or evasion So help me God.
Wow so the Caramel Woman is going to have to start sending out payments to YT for the absolution of her slave owning ancestors sins. Sweet! Oh wait, what do you want to bet that any reparations bill that comes up specifically excludes the descendants of White slaves and indentured servants?
Interesting. Thank you for posting. A true accounting of the history of slavery should be taught in all schools but I know that is a pipe dream. Additional proof of the deep roots of the institution of slavery within African and Arab cultures generally.
The difference was that the episode that’s had the modern repercussions was run by er…’Christians’, who, you’d normally tell me, should know better because… values and such. Granted it was Christians who campaigned to put it to an end, but many didn’t agree.
And certainly in the UK the ‘Christian’ slave owners were so well compensated that the fortunes they made enabled them to start up the factories that made them mega-fortunes in the industrial revolution. It took a few of the more enlightened in the country, later on, to point out that kiddies shouldn’t be working every daylight hour and risking falling into a machine that would butcher them. But ‘Christians’ could be slow in the uptake about these things, just like their benighted ‘inferiors’.
It’s because of Christianity that Europe gave up the slavery of the Pagan Roman Empire. Humanity is BAD, Alba. Yet because Christians are human and therefore far from perfect, you seize on this as if THEY were the problem. How utterly twisted can you get?
Other major religions have their own versions of the doctrine of a fallen humanity. I mean if we were fine as is, why would religion even exist? Doctors exist because of sickness…..
Absolutely! Just as we get physically sick we also can and do get spiritually sick. And of course many of the world’s problems are due to spiritual sickness and darkness in men’s hearts. This is natural. But what is also natural is that some have been given the gift of knowledge that they then use to heal others of their physical ailments. And we have also been given spiritual doctors who help heal our souls. You talk as if being Christian is a sort of static state identity. This is totally false. Being a Christian is a daily and sometimes minute by minute struggle and fight. It is not an identity really. It is a goal. One that can never be completely reached on this plane of existence. But God knows the heart and its intentions and we are recompensed accordingly. Yes Alba, professed Christians do terrible things sometimes like all other people. You have made it clear to me in the past that when Muslims do terrible things it is in no way reflective of Muslims generally. I assume you exercise this discretion in your consideration of Christians.
I just think, in the circumstances, you should maybe stop thinking how superior your race is.
It’s odd because you accept that Christians were wrong then but you can’t imagine that you’re wrong now.
‘God willing’, you say, we’ll achieve this or that. How do you know God is on your side and not on the side of the people you consider your enemies? I get why you’re on your side but I don’t get how you assume ‘God’ is.
And I’m exercising ‘this discretion’ when I tell you I don’t think your views are terribly Christian. And I was at it for decades longer than you have been.
But I’m not spending the week arguing religion with you. You are tied into your beliefs and can’t look at them from the outside.
I’ve seen them from both vantage points.
So do you feel that my beliefs are then semi-Christian or mixed in with other beliefs?
I think you have two separate things going on which you try to combine and which I think are antithetical. I explained it in another post, although some of it was tongue in cheek.
You have two aims, as far as I can see – one is to further your belief in white supremacy and the other is to follow what you see as a biblical path. I think these are in opposition to one another – that’s all. You don’t need to choose if you can persuade yourself that they are one and the same. Obviously, from a psychological standpoint, it’s helpful to think there’s no contradiction.
Personally I’d start with this weird notion you have that Jesus of Nazareth was white. Seriously, if you can get to the stage where even you see that as both silly and unnecessary you might come on in leaps and bounds!
You may have to choose between J***s and J***s, though, and if you find that difficult, you really do need to have a word with yourself.
Note to JFK: Latin “ex” (usually “e” before consonants, as in “e pluribus unum,” “out of several, one”) means “out of” or “from.” It does not mean “in.” “Deus ex [or e] machina” means “a god from/out of a machine.” Latin, incidentally, like Russian, has neither a definite (“the”) nor an indefinite (“a, an”) article.

The Deep State is the working arm of the Illuminati == Scratch
The main thing that makes me laugh when now Marxist science has been declared a conspiracy, and this whole Gnostic rubbish a mainstream science. Meanwhile, everything is exactly the opposite, and in the Soviet Academy of Sciences, all those involved in this knew that Hegel was the main ideologue of the Illuminati, and not just the Illuminati, but the very lodge that created the Yale University and is called the Skull and Bones society.
The members of this lodge are George Bush Sr. and Junior, and why don’t you all take a look at one of the official mainstream biographies of President’s grandfather Prescott Bush, referenced in the English version of article in Wikipedia.
There everything is written quite mainstream about who and exactly how brought Truman to power, who on May 8, 1945 made peace with Nazi Germany.
Separate peace!
This means that the United States has nothing to do with the Victory Day on May 9, 1945, and this statement is at the same time an absolutely reliable historical fact and a conspiracy theory.
Liberalism and Western-ism in Russia emerged as a historical-scholar, literary and artistic movement around the Hegelian community of Berlin, whose leader was Peter Stankevich, and the most prominent and articulated figure was Timothy Granovsky.
Under the influence of German historical science, this circle created a certain mythological idea of the liberal West, which had nothing to do with the real West and even might have been hostile to it.
Liberal ideology in Russia is based on a substitution. Although it is unclear whether this substitution is random or deliberate, but given the environment for the formation of these ideas, which gave rise not only to Russian liberalism, but also to German nationalism and militarism, we have to recognize it as legitimate.
This substitution has a landmark character and hides the deep essence of Russian liberalism, as an ideology proclaiming the desirability and even the need for desacralization of power.
Can your loquaciousness please condense this? I read it two times, but am still unsure what it is exactly you’re trying to get at.
Just a sketch for future research.
Ahh! The inscrutable Finc is at it again.

I think you’re trying to include two separate phenomenon together that are actually very different. And I think I know why you are doing it. You are very clever…and dangerous, Ivan.
Russian liberalism as you describe it is an “ideology proclaiming the desirability and even the need for desacralization of power”. Well who achieved this? The Bolsheviks of course. They removed the primacy of Russian Orthodoxy from the lives of everyday Russians and they removed the Czar, the Russian Caesar, from power. Everything the Bolsheviks stood for was God-less and secular. Those are your Russian liberals. And no!!!!! They do not compare to German Fascists. The Fascists wanted to bring spirituality back into the lives of every day Germans. They wanted to re-invigorate the German nation with a spiritual life since Germany had become so God-less and secular. Hah! You’re not going to get away with confusing us!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Nazi_Germany
At least the original Nazis were logical:
“Hitler’s Propaganda Minister, Joseph Goebbels, saw an “insoluble opposition” between the Christian and Nazi world views.[34] The Fuehrer angered the churches by appointing Alfred Rosenberg, an outspoken pagan, as official Nazi ideologist in 1934.[35] Heinrich Himmler saw the main task of his Schutzstaffel (SS) organization to be that of acting as the vanguard in overcoming Christianity and restoring a “Germanic” way of living.[36] Hitler’s chosen deputy, Martin Bormann, advised Nazi officials in 1941 that “National Socialism and Christianity are irreconcilable.”[35]”
Which is kinda what I’ve been saying all along, and what most rational people would conclude in about 30 seconds flat. But you go ahead – a Nazi state in which the Church is subordinate to the state sounds just like the way the priorities line up in your head.
A Germanic Christianity! Sounds about right! But yeah, He didn’t like it, really. But He didn’t want a rebellion at home. So chose the gradual path of change – scheduling the Youth Meetings on Sunday mornings for example. He did believe in God and did feel religion was necessary, so you’re wrong in that much if you thought otherwise.
That’s not what it says. But you carry on…
That’s not what it says. Yeah, as if I’ve never read anything about this on my own. As you were you will be.
And the problem with modern Christianity is the lack of unity and the fragmentation of the Church into literally thousands of denominations. We would do better if we had thought leaders who could bring us together. Despite their differences in opinion…and it appears that even Nazis have diverse opinions…they did agree that Germany needed a public (and private) spiritual life. Do you realize this is more for us to work with than the absolute authoritarian Secularists who are in power now who are intentionally erasing all aspects of religiosity and spirituality from public life? I know you have no tolerance for my ideas but the State would function better if it incorporated the Church. In many ways the Church could be the hands and feet of the State, but there would also be many occasions in which the State was the hands and feet of the Church. But for this to truly work the State would need to be comprised of one people and one basic religion. No room for multiculturalism or multiple races.
“We would do better if we had thought leaders who could bring us together. ”
Hmmm… ‘thought leaders’. What could possibly go wrong?
You and Janos don’t even play for the same team. Which of you is going to capitulate? As if I needed to ask.

As if two fundamental forces that are joined together in a natural and indestructable union can be separated. He is the universe and I am the creative energy that brings the universe to life. Without one the other is incomplete. It’s scientific and it’s spiritual. But when spoken of so eloquently and beautifully like this it is truly and completely overwhelming and magical isn’t it. So I understand your reactions but you shouldn’t resent the natural law and dynamics of the universe and of life itself.

OK if I send those two posts to Pseuds’ Corner?
Which posts?
SoftStarLight: “I know you have no tolerance for my ideas but the State would function better if it incorporated the Church.”
Tolerance doesn’t need to enter into it, SSL, for me to observe that your ideas are un-American — very clearly so.
The highest law of the land in the USA declares that there shall be no ‘establishment of religion’ (i.e. no official state religion along the lines of the Church of England), and no intervention into people’s religious freedom. Your founding fathers made rather a point of ensuring that the government would never be in the business of telling people how to worship, or whether to worship.
I mean, you don’t have to agree with them; but this is the case. To get what you want, you would have to knock down what America has been since its founding, and replace it with something else. Why not come out and say so?
“Which posts?”
Yours and Janos’ one which it references.
“But for this to truly work the State would need to be comprised of one people and one basic religion. No room for multiculturalism or multiple races.”
Leaving aside ‘multiple races’ where exactly do you get the outrageous entitlement that suggests to you that the non-religious are lesser citizens, since that’s what you’re basically saying?
Politics is an earthly pursuit. You heavenly pursuits are your own private business.

Also, what happens where one of your citizens, qualified by race, doesn’t subscribe to this unifying religion? Banishment? Shunning? Hung from ‘the Gilead Wall’?
Byzantium – the new Rome – achieved the ideal of Caesaro Papism far more than the West or old Rome ever did. And Russian, the Third Rome, adopted this as an ideal as well.
From the Wiki heading on the same:
In its extreme form, caesaropapism is a political theory in which the head of state, notably the emperor (“Caesar”, by extension a “superior” king), is also the supreme head of the church (pope or analogous religious leader).
So indeed, where is he getting this stuff?

Yep, 22 years into a treaty with the UK that was meant to preserve democratic self-governance in HK for 50 years, China tells the UK what it can do with its treaty, i.e. it can mind its own business and keep its nose out, this is an ‘internal matter’ because we say it is. Maybe there will be some spare room in those Muslim-reeducating facilities for some others needing reeducation.
What a great time for the UK to try to go it alone, and in need of a trade deal with China too. And now selling more arms to the Saudis has been ruled illegal too. Oops, bad luck for the weapons merchants and the Treasury.
And WTO rules don’t cover services… goodness, Boris is going to have his work cut out for him to keep Global Britain aimed at the Sunlit Uplands.

Don’t fight it, join it.
They just appropriated billions to finance enlargement of the carrying capacity of all the living quarters for the asylum seekers at the border
So-
The Congress has oversight responsibility to make sure the $ are spent correctly.
What a perfect job for AOC, make her do something constructive.
What is it exactly that Pelosi could win? She’s already achieved her highest level of incompetence by presiding over the sham resistance Yellow Streak Mule Dem Party. They used to at least provide a reasonably convincing illusion of genuine resistance, provided you stayed drunk enough to not really notice, but Trump has stripped the cheap veneer of that rotting piece of cheap furniture and tossed into the fire for all to see. The fact that they’re trotting out Uncle Joe Biden now and his merry band of circus freaks pretty much signals the end for the Yellow Streak Mules for the foreseeable future. I’ll give AOC credit for lively hysterics and reasonably good looks at least, but the walking stiff Pelosi appears to be little more than a political zombie, waiting for her inevitable and long overdue demise.
Pelosi wins as she gets rid of a real problem, the spokeswoman for the extreme Left. Next would be Tlaib and Omar.
Also, it would be nice to see AOC do something constructive.
Oh she did do something constructive.

Dmitry Orlov weighs in with a masterpiece this morning, which should even be received well by most here:
The Death of the Liberal Idea
https://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2019/07/the-death-of-liberal-idea.html
************
And then comes the bombshell announcement. In an interview with Financial Times Putin declares that “the liberal idea… has finally outlived its usefulness” because it no longer serves the needs of the majority of the peoples. Not “people,” mind you, but “peoples”—all different, but all the viable ones united in their steadfast adherence to the principle that family and nation (from the Latin verb nasci—to be born) are über alles. Some might perceive hints of fascism in this train of thought, but that would be akin to arguing that since fascists are known to use toothbrushes, then ipso facto toothbrushes are fascist implements to be outlawed and everyone must go back to cleaning their teeth with twigs and sticks. That Putin was able to utter words to the effect that the liberal idea is dead—something no Western leader would dare say—shows how much the world has changed.
Not that some Western leaders wouldn’t say it, if they only could. “Our Western partners,” Putin said, “have conceded that some elements of the liberal idea are simply not realistic… such as multiculturalism. Many of them conceded that yes, unfortunately it doesn’t work (LOL) and that we must remember the interests of the native population.” Not that Russia doesn’t have its share of problems related to migrants, due to its open border policy with certain former Soviet republics, but it works to resolve them by demanding competency in Russian and respect for Russian culture and traditions, while “the liberal idea presupposes that nothing needs to be done, that migrants can rob, rape, steel, but that we must defend their rights… What rights? You broke a rule—you are punished!”
The migrant crisis is a perfect example of how liberalism has outlived its usefulness. Liberalism offers two ways forward, both of which are fatal to it. One approach is distinctly illiberal: halt the influx of migrants by any means necessary; insist that the migrants already in the country either conform to a strict set of requirements, including demonstrated competency in the nation’s language, detailed knowledge of its laws and administrative systems, strict obedience to its laws and demonstrated preference and respect for the customs and culture of the native population—or be not so much deported as expelled. The other approach is liberal at first: allow the influx to continue, do not hinder the formation of foreign ghettos and enclaves which native citizens and officials dare not enter, and eventually surrender to Sharia law or other forms of foreign dictate—guaranteeing the eventual death of the liberal idea along with much of the native population. Thus, the choice is between killing the liberal idea but saving the native population or letting the liberal idea die willy-nilly, taking the native population along with it. It offers no solution at all.
************
Well written!
The native population must first recognize that there is a problem. Our biggest current problem is that the enemy of the native, yes European Caucasian Population, is itself, a group of White idiots that are giving away American heritage. So yes, the Whites better get their act together and be willing to fight for the cause. The second step is to grow a set of cojones big enough to offset the onslaught.
Control the borders! Without that starting point, the rest is useless. Hand the keys to he country to the global Liberals.
The only way to control the immigration, trafficking and drugs at the border is a wall, period, one tall enough and into the ground far enough to stop 99% of the illegals. The other 1% that figure out how to get in, we probably want anyway.
I will say it again and again, the enemy of the native population of this country is the Democratic Party, and not the GOP. I would love to see the indigents invade Pelosi’s space in California and Schumer’s in New York.
The GOP is not the enemy of the native population? John you know that is way off. Many within the GOP are in lock step with the Chamber of Commerce and want to flood this country with cheap labor. Additionally, the GOP was in charge of the entire government for two years and did nothing about immigration or the border. This is not even addressing their support for foreign wars and interventions. As long as you continue to give them a pass then there isn’t any way to move forward. The GOP and Dems all work for the same donors at the end of the day. And they have the same agenda but they work the crowd in different ways. Trump was never really a GOP guy anyway according to conventional wisdom.
And he doesn’t think we are special anyway. As long as the Non-Whites adopt our Culture, everything is fine. But why would they? Why adopt a Culture of people too weak to keep them out?
If they had stayed home and adopted our Culture THERE, I would be far more impressed than the superficial lip service that they give here – and even that is fading since they don’t need to do it anymore.
Alex Jones, the same. He said, So what if a hundred million more Blacks and a hundred million more Browns entered America as long as they assimilated? Such complete ignorance of psychology, sociology, ecology, and economics is not rare, alas.
“As long as they assimilate”? What if they don’t?
It’s amazing to me that men of such knowledge adamantly refuse to acknowledge that no people group will willingly give up their identity unless they are forced to do so, and even then there are plenty of examples of people not abiding by such oppression. Then there is the whole psychology of people being attracted to winners and not so much to losers. And in today’s America, Whites are talked about openly and everywhere as the demographic and cultural losers. The Browns, the Blacks, the Muslims, all types of foreigners are seen as the winners and they are very open about their plans to usurp and displace Whites. Ilhan Omar recently said that America is not a country of White people. Who is she to say anything about it? She is not an ethnic or cultural American. But yeah, these guys just don’t care. And apparently they think immigrants are going to assimilate somehow into a culture that makes no demand for assimilation. It’s very sad. The world has changed but in their mind they still live in an America that doesn’t exist anymore.
No one would ever give up their identity? Yes – only Whites would. Were Special. It used to be in good way, now it’s in a Special Olympics way. Christianity changed us. And when it corrupted, it brought us down even more. But we’re still different, though that might be changing. Paganism is obviously on the rise, most of it decadent but some of it healthy. We need the latter since Christianity isn’t going to regenerate in time to save us, except in small enclaves and churches I’m afraid.
Yes John SSL is right, the GOP is also the enemy, even if they are not as rabid as the democrats, they are still just as corrupt. The best evidence to this effect is how they too have fought DJT and still are not coming to his aid, at least not in any real way. Here in NJ the heart of left loonie-ism, the loser GOP has finally taken up the “don’t fight Trump” mantra ,but it is too late IMHO for them to become relevant.
In our small municipality we have reached across the aisle and teamed up with concerned citizens who realize that it is the quality of the individual rather that the political affiliation that gets results. We were able to throw out a four term career politician and next year everything changes. Although this can probably not be done on a national basis, until we create a group that has value, those who hold office shall continue to have NO value.
The gist of my message is always that the Deep State is the enemy to America. The RINO portion of the GOP is a part of the Deep State. The Trump GOP, Lindsey Graham is an example, has realized what the Deep State is up to and are trying to do something about it. So yeah, part of the GOP is a traitorous lot with Mitt Romney and John Kasich in the lead.
The Democratic Party however is the main culprit here. The Leftist drive is what is destroying the country. If you’all could get rid of one element to stop the down slide, would it be the Dems or the GOP. I know where my vote would be.
Where’s Putin’s speech. I know Orlov got a few things wrong and I want to see what else.
‘Straight Pride organizer Mark Sahady announced the parade on Facebook, claiming he received permits for the event that would likely take place on August 31.
But Sahady isn’t just a particularly aggrieved straight dude. Instead, he has a long history participating in controversial right-wing events around Boston as an organizer for Resist Marxism, a group Chapman founded at the height of the fame he earned attacking left-wing anti-fascist activists with his eponymous “stick.”
Chapman appears to no longer be involved with the group now that he’s facing felony charges in two states over two assaults. But Sahady has taken up his position, organizing Resist Marxism events around the Boston area.

Why Trump won. This is in Putin’s Speech.
‘What happened in the United States, and how did it happen? In the United States, the leading US companies –the companies, their managers, shareholders and partners – made use of these benefits. The middle class hardly benefitted from globalization. The take-home pay in the US (we are likely to talk later about real incomes in Russia, which need special attention from the Government). The middle class in the United States has not benefited from globalisation; it was left out when this pie was divided up.
Smart as Putin is he would not believe something like this just because he figured it out. This is info that can be fact checked. Unless Russian intelligence is as incompetent and self serving as the American machine is the following must be true.

Putinomics 101 (Cont)
As I have already written, after 2000, the liberal economic model in Russia forced the entire country to work for the military-industrial complex, and as a result of this maneuver, Russia for the first time in its history gained a decisive military advantage that made the new cold war meaningless and turned the discussion of the possibility of hot war to the purely theological level.
By theological level, I mean the well-known argument of the Russian president about who goes where after a nuclear war – despite the playful form, it speaks of very serious things.
Vladimir Putin took the office of President of the Russian Federation at the moment when it already had the economic model that still exists with major, but not fundamental, changes, and I call the Putinomics these changes that Putin made to the system that was created in the 80s, but in the 90s it was adapted to the realities of the capitalist world, in which the USSR ceased to exist, and the globalists-liberals of the Clinton pack, about which the Russian president spoke 4 days ago, prevailed.
Unfortunately, this system, or rather, this economic model still remains an undescribed economic theory and does not even have a name. And we still do not know how it works, but if you approach it as a black box and track how the Gorbachev system at the entrance turned into Putinominics at the exit, then you can guess what is inside it if you ask it questions in the form of thought experiments.
And I’ll say right away that the main result of this thought experiments will be increased confidence in Vladimir Putin, despite the well-grounded drop in his rating, if of course we do not assume that he reads the CFN and the rubbish I am carrying here and start the revolution from above immediately.
The problem is that I don’t want an immediate revolution from above and do not advise him to do it, but I prefer to strengthen the historical optimism of the citizens of Russia, who by the will of fate had to go through rather terrible times when the Motherland told them: “I don’t need you anymore! Survive as you see fit!”
In fact, all this is obsession, false memory. The Motherland didn’t say anything of the kind, and it was all invented by people who, in the 1992 approached actor Lanovoy at the WTO restaurant and mockingly asked him: “Well, old man, now you understand that there is such a profession – to sell Motherland!”
Suffice it to recall that yesterday was the 27th anniversary of the devaluation of the ruble against the dollar 220 times, which simultaneously impoverished 140 million citizens of the Russian Federation:
On July 1, 1992, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation issued a statement “On the official exchange rate of the ruble,” the Bank of Russia equalized the official exchange rate of the US dollar with the commercial exchange rate, raising it from 56 kopecks to 125 rubles.
And if you read that statement of the Central Bank of Russia carefully, it turns out that it did not devalue the ruble, since the commercial exchange rate is being determined by trades, in which only legal entities (companies or organizations) participated and at these trades, even if to disregard enormous abuses, the rate of non-cash ruble was determined.
So the Central Bank equalized NOT the official exchange rate of the US dollar with the commercial exchange rate, but the rate of cash-ruble to non-cash ruble, which in 1981 was quite officially four times more than non-cash ruble.
Indeed, for example, in construction, in order to receive one ruble of salary (cash ruble), it was necessary to officially fulfill the contract in amount of 4 rubles.
Naturally, by July 1, 1992, those who had the opportunity to convert a non-cash ruble into dollars had already done so a long time ago, and the $1 to 125 ruble exchange rate determined on the stock exchange had nothing to do with the real ruble exchange rate and was determined only by the amount of non-cash billions which the Soviet State, seized by the Black World Project, transferred to its “perfecti” for conversion into dollars, so that they could buy property when the Soviet State would hit a copper pan with a bang:
On October 26, 1990, USSR President Mikhail Gorbachev signed a decree “On the introduction of the ruble’s commercial exchange rate to foreign currencies and measures to create an all-Union foreign exchange market.” According to the decree, in addition to the official rate set by the USSR State Bank, a commercial rate was introduced, at which, from January 1, 1991, legal entities (companies) could buy currency for rubles. The commercial dollar exchange rate was set for the first time on November 1, 1990 at the level of 1.8 rubles per dollar, while the official rate remained the same – 55 kopecks.
And as I wrote in the previous post of this series, the last generation of the Soviet generation can be proud that in 1991 it supported Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsin, who stalled this wagon, the purpose of which was not only to break the backbone of Historical Russia but also to reduce the population on its territory ten times at least.
Indeed, as a result of the changes that occurred in the socialist economy in the “damned” 80s, and not at all in the 1990s, economic liberalism took on the role of collective farms and the GULAG in 2000, and Russian people suffered the consequences of this invention for a reason, in order to protect the Motherland from worse misfortunes than 10 Chubais (I wanted to write 10 thousand Chubais, but the Universe could not stand such a number of redhead spawns of Hell)

That the Deep State would attempt a Trump take-down is no surprise. After all we saw it in Dealey Plaza in Dallas and the Ambassador Hotel in LA, in those cases straight-forward rub-outs followed by clean-up operations.
What really IS the surprise is the utter lack of resolve in carrying out this latest whack, a bigger surprise is that they would do it via a laughable story-line (collusion), and especially that the man they hired to do the hit (Mueller) in the end put up his hands and admitted there was nothing to it. Instead he comes up with cockamamie,frail-assed fall-back stories about election interference by Russia and its mustache-twirling capo.
Maybe I’ve been reading too many spy stories but I’m disappointed. I thought that the combined financial might and man-power and creativity of the republic’s many and varied intel agencies, whose trade-craft is supposed to include legends, frame-ups and misinformation would have easily concocted evidence, created skeins of circumstance, authored believable narratives to make an open-and-shut case of electoral malfeasance. Or something.
Paltry and feeble is what we saw. Instead of competence and determination and dispatch we get farce and stumbling and bumbling such that you want to avert your eyes.
More seriously, it would not have escaped notice in foreign climes ie Beijing and Moscow and also some of the world’s less savory regimes, that the US Deep State is no longer a hive of entrepreneurial vim and vigor. Instead it’s devoid of ideas, decrepit its imaginative reach and incompetent in its execution, not to mention utterly lacking in balls – that essential ingredient that signals basic survival fitness. And these foreign places and their unsqueamish leaders will take the measure of the men they’re up against.
Because at the end of it, and two years and forty million dollars and the combined will of anyone that matters (or think they matter) Trump is still in the Oval Office.
What if they don’t really want him gone at all, or if only limited factions do? Sometimes removing a problem altogether is not the best option. Lots of options out there when you’re the ones in the driver’s seat. Divide and conquer appears to be the operating instructions from on high for now.

14 Sailors Die on Secretive Russian Nuclear Submarine
https://news.usni.org/2019/07/02/14-sailors-die-on-secretive-russian-nuclear-submarine
Oh, boy… Not another Kursk…
HIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAARRRYYYYYYYYYY!!!
After reading a book about the battle of Kursk, I don’t know why anyone would name a submarine after that battle? It was not what I had expected. I had expected a dramatic, thrilling Soviet victory over the Wehrmacht, but instead it was a bloody, drawn out, war of attrition slug fest in which the Germans pulled back only after the Yanks invaded Sicily. I had always been impressed with the Russian T – 34 tank. But one has to admire the German Tiger Tank, the Tiger Panzerkampfwagon. The Tiger had an 88 mm high muzzle velocity cannon that could blow a T – 34 apart at 4,000 yards. The Soviets just wore the Wehrmacht down taking huge casualties. The Soviets excelled st close quarters combat. An effective Soviet anti-tank weapon was the Molotov Cocktail. The burning gasoline would drip into a tank finding its way between spaces in the Panzer’s armor. Jesus…,
Germans pulled back only after the Yanks invaded Sicily
Are you talking about one of the most shameful American operation during WWII, when Yanks killed thousands of their own and blown from the skies their own planes?
From Tunisia, 144 C-47s and C-53s carrying some 2,000 U.S. paratroopers flew towards the South coast of Sicily. Word had been sent to the Navy informing them of the operation and to the forces on land. Many on the ships would later claim the message had not been received. Furthermore, they had been attacked by German bombers throughout the day and were frayed from battle.
Whatever or whomever was to blame pales in comparison to the terror that unfolded when American anti-aircraft gunners on shore and on the ships opened fire on the planes carrying their fellow soldiers.
The reaction of onlookers from the time reveal the catastrophe in plain and striking words:
Patton could only stare in horror, repeating, ‘Oh, my God,’ over and over while Ridgeway cried.
Anti-aircraft gunner Herbert Blair later wrote, ‘Only then does the dreadful realization descend like a sledgehammer upon us. We have wantonly, though inadvertently, slaughtered our own gallant buddies. I feel sick in body and mind.’”

Putinomics 101 (Conclusion)
Before the World War Three starts, I would like to finish the series, if you don’t mind.
This post is the conclusion of a series of posts about Putinomics – the type of economy that was created in Russia as a result of the struggle of four clans:
1. Clan Gorbachev-Andropov
2. Clan Luzhkov-Primakov
3. Clan Gaidar-Chubais
4. Clan Yeltsin-Putin
This type of economy, which in the West is quite rightly called kleptocracy, began to take shape in the 80s of the 20th century, when Gorbachev allowed cooperatives to have currency accounts (sometime since 1987) and still exists, but over the past 21 years, Vladimir Putin made quite big changes to it, which allowed the so-called “liberalism” to be put in the service of the Russian State and its Military Industrial Complex (MIC), and I would call this cart Putinomics, into which he managed to harness this horse and this quivering doe .
I hope that the people of my age still remember the Institute for System Studies, and the fact that the Gaidar-Chubais clan is flesh and blood from the Gorbachev-Andropov clan, but when Gorbachev was recruited from the British MI-6 to the German BND, they parted ways, and it played a role in how Putinomics developed.
And as far as I understood, Luzhkov arranged a large laundry from the city of Moscow, where money was laundered from drug mafias from all over the world, but I really don’t know and don’t want to slander a person, but I know for sure that the red-brown revolt in 1993 Luzhkov managed to suppress, and Yeltsin was responsible only for the shot of a tank gun at the White House, and then I am almost certain that he gave this order not entirely voluntarily.
Well, the Yeltsin-Putin clan is actually the Brezhnev clan, who before his death managed to sign papers appointing Yeltsin the first secretary of the Moscow Communist Party Committee, and Gorbachev and Ligachev tried to delay this order by appointing him the Central Committee Secretary for Construction, since the Moscow Communist Party Committee was more important than the Communist Party of any of the Union Republics, since all members of these clans on the party line were accountable to Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsin.
I hope that in previous posts I was able to prove to you that Putin, having become president of Russia, found that the country was sentenced to death and that it was waiting for disintegration in conjunction with the genocide of the autochthonous population, ala the conquest of the US West.
Therefore, for him the main task was to modernize the nuclear potential of the Russian Federation as the only way to stop the roadmap of the collapse of the Russian Federation, compiled by Hillary Clinton, probably even before the USSR collapsed, and which became the main reason for her rise to the top of the Black World Project of the West.
And in order to understand how Putin managed to derail this roadmap, it is necessary to recall how Dmitry Medvedev on September 26, 2011 dismissed Alexei Kudrin from his post as finance minister of the Russian Federation after Alexey Leonidovich criticized Dmitry Anatolyevich a little in Washinton, hinting to the curators of Russia that, after a back switch between Putin and Medvedev, he will not work with this prime minister.
When he returned to Russia, he refused to print 3 trillion rubles for the modernization of the nuclear submarines, giving Dmitry Anatolyevich a reason to dismiss him.
After this dismissal, Dmitry Anatolyevich cruelly deceived the expectations of his supporters in the Russian Federation and Washington, and instead of going for the presidency for a second term, he offered the party, which he still heads, to nominate Vladimir Putin, who categorically refuses to become its member, but without this nomination under the laws of the Russian Federation would have to collect signatures in underground passages.
This is how Vladimir Vladimirovich became president in 2012, and three trillion rubles for the military-industrial complex were printed and issued as salaries to defense factory workers, and the rest of the country, suffering from chronic under-financing of almost all sectors of the economy, except the military-industrial complex, under liberal economic model worked like a damn, producing consumer goods and food, which were bought by defense plant workers, enabling the above-mentioned clans to snatch at least a little bit of their three trillion rubles, which Putin nicely asked for his long-time friend and part-time Russian Finance Minister Alexei Leonidovich Kudrin.

A series of new studies are finding out that the dying of coral reefs may be more than just water getting warmer.
They are finding that coral relish eating plastic bits. Plastic bits being the remnant of plastics breaking down on saltwater and UV light. The corals when given a choice of their normal foods and plastic seem to prefer plastic bits. The plastic is impregnated with bacteria which finishes off the coral.
I do not understand the politics of plastics. I can think of two changes that would make a huge difference to the plastics explosion in the seas. Eliminate plastic bags and plastic drink bottles. California spit in the ocean with their ban on plastic straws. Why don’t the PTB stop the main sources of plastic.
Another question. How much of our society’s plastic wastes are dumped into the ocean? It is getting obvious that our dumpster of last resort does have finite limits on its carrying capacity.
Another question. These organizations that are cleaning up the plastic in the ocean? What are they doing with it? Giving it to a waste organization that dumps it back in the ocean? I hope not!

And, btw, for the fans of removing plastics from the oceans, which I’m all for, obviously, think about the microfibres that go into the drainage system and thence to the rivers and seas every time you wash some synthetic clothing – fleece being up there with the prizewinners.
Put that way GA i totally agree.
I hate seeing animals suffer needlessly.
My point exactly. To me, politically, it would be useful to show what macroscopic damage is being done to the biome by these plastic bits. Over and over.
I do not know what cost adders would happen if plastic bags, wrapping, straws, cups, bottles etc were miraculously gone tomorrow.
Why the heck did we start the plastic revolution in the first place?
I can remember the onset of plastic, it was all the rage. Everything was fiberglass. Yeah, I am THAT old. Glass bottles, paper shopping bags, tin cans, no straws, glass glasses, all degrade so much faster than plastic.
My priorities would be to turn back the clock on plastics, then eliminate the Diesel engine, then work on battery storage until a 500 mile range car is possible at $30000 a copy. Get the RR efficient so that market forces make airlines decline, interstate trucking goes to the RR. Market forces only will make this happen.
Sounds impossible doesn’t it. Here is the rub. All of it will occur when the Long Emergency hits, whatever the source of the downturn will be. RR will become more important. Why? Because they can be made more efficient, same with electric cars. Diesels, airplanes, gas engines not so much.

From what I understand, some of our recycled plastics and synthetic clothing/shoes gets processed and added to the mix that makes our roads. Seems it’s very effective.
Every time a vehicle drives on one of those roads you get particulates from the road, the tyres (also plastic) and the brake linings. Then little kids breathe it into their under-developed lungs. We do too of course, but then we’re responsible, not them, and our lungs have a better chance. The rest of it ends up eventually in rivers and then the sea, along with the rest. Electric cars will only solve half a problem.
This is way beyond plastic bags – removing them from the chain ‘just’ prevents some marine strangulations and chokings, and the eventual break-up into tiny particles that everything, including us, then ingests..
I watched an investigation last week or so about disposal of household waste from parts of the UK. I recall saying on here a while ago that I read – rather more than seven years ago – that the UK had seven years of landfill capacity left. Presumably that’s why some of it gets exported. So the reporter found himself in a village in Malaysia beside mountains of unprocessed household crap that would probably never be processed. In there were bags from a local authority in Wales (who couldn’t say anything useful about it, obviously – they’ve changed their practices blah blah blah…).
Since it’s apparently beyond the capacity of the average person to wash a terry nappy these days, even in the era of washing machines that can do everything but make a cup of coffee, household waste is also full of disposable nappies that take decades to decompose (leaving aside where the decomposed version ends up) and with vestigial baby poop in them.
Not content with poisoning ourselves with our crap we make poor people in foreign countries sick as well.
Plastic is forever. flakes and ends up all over the place.
8 billion tons created. Maybe more.
I think I read that some plastics take 450 years to degrade!
That’s plastic bottles, apparently, JohnAZ.
https://www.thebalancesmb.com/how-long-does-it-take-garbage-to-decompose-2878033
Plastic bags: 10-1000 years!
Disposable nappies (18 billion/year in the US): 250-500 years.
This is interesting too:
“Every minute, every day, more than 120,000 aluminum cans are recycled only in America. But, at the same time, in every three-month period, enough aluminum cans are thrown away in America that can rebuild the entire American commercial air fleet.”
I had 30 square terry nappies that did two kids and then were used as floor cloths (in Ye Olde Days, some will remember we wiped things up with washable cloths rather than plastic wipes, which are the work of the devil). My mother took some of them for cleaning cloths and still had a few left when my kids were teenagers.
Actually I started a certificate program in Recycling [they dont cal it that] and was told ‘they dont know IF it decomposes, it just seems to break into smaller pieces.’
aluminum–1000 years?
This is so so sad. I remember a day over a decade ago, on a jetski with a friend. A seal was getting strangled to death with those plastic bottle rings. The seal could not breathe! I called everyone. My days were ruined. I cried for several days and I will never lose that picture in my mind.
I have watched the Navy throw everything overboard before they got to Hawaii. I was horrified. Last weekend, we went to the Miramar Landfill in San Diego, CA. I was astounded. We just pulled into a spot and started dumping crap out of the truck (mostly plants, but succulents so they could not go in greenery) I saw mattresses and multiple other junk and I was so sad that this was really real. We are crapping where we live and there is no way out.
That’s awful, Ricechex. That’s why it’s so frustrating when people lump everything together and try to claim that bans on this or that plastic are related to climate change, which is related to ‘liberals’ or whatever or whoever is their pet bogeyman.
My husband, since a couple of years ago, has finally started cutting his plastic beercan rings before they go to in the rubbish, but even though they can’t strangle something that doesn’t mean they won’t end up in a sea creature’s gut if the rubbish isn’t disposed of properly. And since municipal functions have been handed over to private contractors there’s even less supervision of the whole life cycle of what we consume.
Organised crime also gets involved in some places and stuff you think is being recycled or properly disposed of is just waylaid and dumped illegally, even when it’s hazardous chemicals and industrial waste. It’s a minefield, and all because people won’t take on board that there’s no such place as ‘away’.
Environments on the other side of the world that are marketed as being the last pristine places on earth are surrounded by mountains of tourist detritus, and yet these places depend on tourist dollars.
And your story about the dumping by the Navy is shocking. Isn’t that illegal? Daft question, I know. It happens everywhere I’m sure.

(It’s only a flesh wound, lampchop.)
Don’t forget Trex lumber which is made of recycled trash bags. Problem is it still is plastic, and in the environment and will eventually need disposal.
Just a thought. What happens when Trex lumber burns, how toxic is that?
We have to manufacture and use less plastic.
Hey, that would make the oil supply last longer too!
“We have to manufacture and use less plastic. ”
John,
Why pine for the Utopian?
We just need to design power plants that will burn massive amounts of plastic, and do so within acceptable air quality standards.
Plastic trash then becomes a commodity, and enters the economy as an asset, rather than a liability.
In the end we all die so what?
It could be they want us to died faster and depopulate the planet so really the eco warriors are fighting a losing battle.
If they really want to help the planet they should simply lie down under a tree and expire then mother earth would be so proud.
benr
When people say ‘save the planet’ they don’t mean ‘save the planet’. The planet will be just fine. It isn’t at all sensitive to what happens on it and feels neither pride nor anger.
What people mean is ‘save the planet as a hospitable environment for us – and other creatures – to live on’. We can choose to do that or not.
Bulldozing a football field-sized area of the Amazon rainforest every second has no effect on the wellbeing of the planet but it does on ours. Not that its current caretaker cares two hoots. Tick…tick…
“In the end we all die so what?”
That’s like saying it doesn’t matter whether you die peacefully in your bed, are hung from a butcher’s hook, or just starve to death watching your kids do the same.
Most of your post is duh.
I have railed against not planting trees!
For every tree chopped down a couple should be planted.
Billions of trees should regreen where mankind has hacked and burned for 10,000 years.
This is the true source of faster climate change not c02 per se but the sinks being hacked and burned and not replaced.
benr
“For every tree chopped down a couple should be planted.”
How can you replant trees where they’re being cleared for mining, palm oil production or to grow soya for Big Beef’s cattle barons?
Where is it you want the trees to be replanted? And replacing hardwood forests isn’t the same, in terms of growth cycles, as turning over a pine forest that’s harvested for paper or Ikea furniture.
So ‘duh’ yourself.
Such a depressing nihilistic attitude, benr – and then again in your next post, too, along with the previous ‘I just don’t give a shit’.
Combined with constant raging against non-existent ‘perils of socialism’, I think you maybe need to take stock…get help.
No just telling the truth you people on the left won’t rest till we are dead or living in caves.
Look at the nonsense you push over and over as rational dialogue it’s utter rubbish and insanity.
“…the left won’t rest till we are dead or living in caves.
Look at the nonsense you push over and over …”
I call bullshit on that absurd generalization. Point us all at anyone on the ‘left/humanist’ side on this blog who has advocated for species-wide death or a return to the stone age?
No, it’s just more impotent raging from someone who cannot – scratch that – WILL NOT stop drinking the Kool-Aid.
“No just telling the truth you people on the left won’t rest till we are dead or living in caves.”
The quickest way to end up living in caves is to pay no attention to where our civilisations are heading with peak consumption.
Another pollution watch
We seem to have forgotten that the primary culprit of the internal combustion engine is particulate especially fine particulate. Carcinogenic, toxic substances that we can actually see staining the air we breathe.
The race to electric should be motivated by particulate pollution reduction, especially diesels.
Improving the cars and trucks combustion to eliminate particulates gives us more ta da CO2. Electric is the key, with all the problems it will cause. Electrical generation needs to be combustion free. Good luck with that.
Removing gas and diesel cars only adds to the burden of the already failing electric grid.
In California they are now demanding we turn off everything between 4pm and 9pm or face the highest tier of cost.
Diesel hybrids are the answer there is such a thing as clean burning diesel it must be tuned properly and maintained.
immigrants dont come cheap, they have a footprint.
the not golden state.
The Deep State is the working arm of the Illuminati…”
The Illuminati no longer exists. The term “Illuminati” refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, a secret society that operated for only a decade, from 1776 to 1785.
Of course, paranoid conspiracy theorists would say it is so secret their invisibility fools everyone into thinking they don’t exist, which allows them to operate unhindered… Catch-22. It is a perfectly circular argument, right up there with the flying spaghetti monster and various invisible supreme beings whose ways are so mysterious we cannot understand them… but allow construction of explanatory arguments that can be molded to satisfy.
“As long as they assimilate”? What if they don’t?
They didnt and they cant.
IQ is part of the problem.
In the 1960s, the ‘Act of 1965 and bi lingual education was the beginning of the end.
LA RAZA AND MACHA followed.
LA RAZA AND MACHA followed.
malthuss, the name La Raza no longer exists. Their organization is now called UnidosUS to indicate their assimilation. MEChA is an acronym for Movimiento Estudiantil de Chicanos de Aztlan. The Aztlan territories lost in the past to the United States are being recovered, thanks to emigration.
59 million Hispanics are here in the United States speaking Spanish and sharing their culture. Building a wall will not stop Aztlan being recovered.
Spanish will be adopted as an official language in the United States. Compare 59 million USA Hispanics to Canada, where French is the mother tongue of only 7 million Canadians. The Official Languages Act (1969) gives French and English equal status in the government of Canada and bilingualism seems to be working fine there.
Today we see that Trump is actually helping Aztlan. Today Trump caved in defeat and said the 2020 census forms will not have a question about citizenship. Trump is losing most court battles these days.
I’m too old to learn spanish.
“I’m too old to learn spanish.”
Bilingualism grants equal status to both languages. It does not mean anyone is forced to learn Spanish. It just means both languages are equally valued. English is fine. So it Spanish.
Tagalog is equally good, right? Out of One, many.
59 million Hispanics in the USA
2 million Filipinos in the USA
Yes, Tagolog is equally good, but there is no linguistic warrant to make it an official language in the United States.
E Pluribus Unum means many cultures, many religions, many languages = ONE nation, indivisible.
Our diverse military with many minorities, religions, and sexual orientations = ONE dedicated fighting force.
Little Jane was shilling for La Raza 10 years ago, back when she was Asoka.
Todavía me gustaría intentarlo.
James,
Relax…the following is the only Spanish phrase you will need to know…memorize it.
“Soy canadiense … no me mates “
The question about citizenship was wrong and should not have been on the census.
Questions to be asked.
How many people live in your household period end of story.
I only answer that question the rest of none of their business.
They will never really assimilate. They didn’t come here to assimilate. They came here to utilize our economic system to their benefit and maximize the amount of wealth that can be redistributed to their own people. They have used our kindness and gullible nature against us and we allowed it to happen. Now we know. So there aren’t any further excuses to allow this to continue.
Really SSL. The zeitgeist will change. Get ahead of the curve.

The link is to the short video I call ‘Illegals of the Golden Gibbon. The video is at my website in the far right column it is in a list of environmentally themed videos.
If I were them I would not assimilate either. We live in a society that miss-allocated its resources so badly that we have no future. As there is nothing to assimilate into worth having and since times be a-changin, concentrating on their traditional culture is probably a better long term strategy.
Maybe they could teach you Spanish or Mayan and if you get down on your luck maybe they will give you some food.
FAR RIGHT–Now u are on zee RIGHT Track.
I see signs, small signs in store windows etc—to send the money south…espanole western euion type stuff.
The woman former journalist — E Jean Carrol — who claimed Donald Trump raped her in the 80s (already forgot about, like I predicted), she’s claiming Hunter S Thompson raped her too. Apparently accusations have been made against other prominent men of that era, they all raped her.
I wonder if this is the only way that she can be relevant now?
There have to be several high-end courtesans of the same caliber that were used to bring down Eliot Spitzer who have been with Trump. These women know the exact anatomical characteristics of the suspect schlong. They could cash in as expert witnesses and test the veracity of the rape claims. The next time you are on your knees SSL, take a good look. You could be one 2.
Was there any need for a comment like that?
Haha! Triggered.
Leftists usually have a very nasty side to them, eh?

Emergency declared worldwide
Yesterday at 6 pm Moscow time (11 am Eastern), the plane with Vice President Pence flying to New Hampshire for election campaign turned around and returned to Washington due to an emergency situation announced due to an unannounced reason.
I managed to talk about it with only two of my acquaintances, as I wrote the conclusion of Putinomics, which apparently has a direct relationship to this, but I had more than 10 calls from different people in different parts of the US on my phone yesterday, and in Google the top return to the query “Pence Emergency” number one pops up the clip “Nuclear Emergency – Pence and Putin’s Schedule Canceled”, which NOW shows some nonsense, but half an hour ago it showed something so serious that I can not and do not want write about it.
And judging by the forums, the first thought that Trump’s supporters came up with when they became aware of the Pence plane turning over the Atlantic was that the Vice President should take up his duties as President due to Trump’s inability to fulfill these responsibilities. The reasons for such a decision range from attempted murder to stroke and FOX-5 was forced to make a special show that there is nothing like that, Trump feels great and just wants Pence to be at hand.
And when it became known that the European Union also declared a state of emergency, a large part of the forums came to the conclusion that a state of emergency was declared worldwide in connection with the sabotage of the Russian deepwater Losharik, and they were demanding an answer and finally resolving the problem of Hillary Clinton, who, in their opinion, started all this in order to say “WOW!” when the videos of the launching missiles come online.
I cannot discuss the measures that are proposed to be taken, but again I can show this video, the author of which is rumored to be Barack Obama:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5ayK694PZI
And now, in response to a request in Google “Pence emergency” half of the links lead to Putin and Shoigu.
And they still do not know that seven of the fourteen sailors who died on Losharik are captains of the first rank. And you know, a fire on a nuclear submarine is a rather rare thing, and a fire at the moment when there are more than seven captains of the first rank is a diversion!
P.S. I just read on the forum that FBI employees supporting Trump have arrested more than 200 of their bosses, Hillary Clinton supporters.
Vysotsky: Save Our Souls

All those who say that the ethnic cleansing of Whites is not a thing are either completely ignorant of the facts or are participants in the cleansing and thus feigning ignorance. It is no longer possible to pretend it isn’t a thing. It has already begun via the slow but steady abolition of historic and cultural symbols and images. One day it will move away from the abstract and become very concrete. As in, one day they will come directly for you and your family. Here is how Google is slowly erasing White identity and White people altogether.
https://www.naturalnews.com/2019-07-01-google-censors-white-couples-from-image-search.html
I ask you all to try a simple exercise. Type White Couples into your search engine of choice (as if Google does this alone) and see what images you come up with. Then type in Black Couples and see what images you come up with. Compare your findings between the searches and see what conclusions you reach.
There is an explanation of your concerns here:
https://www.quora.com/Why-does-Google-incorrectly-show-interracial-couples-during-image-searches
Seems perfectly logical to anyone not paranoid, I’d have thought.
Search “white teen” and read the articles that are linked off of images. One image shows pictures of 4 black teens because they beat some “white teen” to a coma.
Yep. Even though there’s no such thing as race according to Wokesterdom, (including Elrond Hubbard & k-dog), lol. And of course, this never happens, but if it ever did happen, it’s not a “hate crime”. And of course, the fact that black-on-white violence happens like 75 times more often than the reverse is a lie, but if it’s true, then those White people deserved it.
I saw that too, Tate – I gave you the uncensored version.
It still explains the argument very sensibly.
I do recall, mind you, back in my days of writing letters for Amnesty Int’l (as it was then), giving a talk to a church group and having to point out, with regard to the death penalty in the US, that in Georgia, no white person had ever suffered the death penalty for killing a black person, despite the fact that white people did kill black people. The death sentence for black people killing white people was routine.
Well, I don’t have access to your source for this gem of information (Amnesty Int’l?), but I suspect that since the death penalty was resumed in 1976, Black criminals murdering Whites has vastly overshadowed Whites murdering Blacks.
Back in the bad old days of lynch law, before the Federal government got involved & set up our current protected classes, it was a matter of mob justice, & the ring leaders often couldn’t be identified. So it sorta kinda makes sense that the figures are lopsided in the way you claim, although I doubt that it’s NEVER happened.
*White criminals murdering Blacks*
You suspect? That plus a wad of toilet paper would be just as worthless, Tate. Inform yourself before you speak.
Yawn. I only use the word ‘suspect’ because I’m too lazy to do an in-depth search for the statistics on this pre-holiday afternoon. And the raw numbers can be parsed a thousand ways. But let’s keep in mind that what there are of them can’t be parsed in any way favorable to the opposite claim, which is laughable on its face.
“although I doubt that it’s NEVER happened.”
It had never happened up to the point at which I had the information.
Of the total number of people lynched, a quarter were White. How many people know that? Very few. Were any lynched for the murder of Blacks? I honestly don’t know. Mob Justice is usually very prejudiced, so perhaps not. I can only say the genesis of this “system” was the ruthless persecution of Whites during Reconstruction. And part of that was the putting of Blacks above Whites and the refusal to bring Blacks to justice for their crimes against Whites. In other words, this was payback or Karma. And yes, letting Whites go free for the wanton killing of Blacks is karma too.
Black murdering Whites —400? a year.
Whites murdering Blacks. –100? a year in USA.
Remember POC are 13% of USA population.
Blacks killing Blacks–10,000? a year..no protests from BLM on that. Just when Whites kill POC.
. The death sentence for Black people killing White people was routine.
And do you have a problem with this? What is wrong with this picture?
Amnesty Int’l is all for open borders, last time I checked.
Janos
Any white people lynched (presumably by other white people) will most likely have been because they were race-traitors, your favorite people-to-loathe, and/or standing up for the rights of non-whites.
“. The death sentence for Black people killing White people was routine.
And do you have a problem with this? What is wrong with this picture?”
Well, (a) I’m not a fan of state-sanctioned murder, as it clearly doesn’t work as a deterrent, it costs more overall than other options, we’re supposed to be better than the people we put in jail for murder, and it risks the wrongful killing of innocent people, and (b) I have a problem with it if it’s unfairly applied to black people when white people don’t suffer it for killing black people.
“Amnesty Int’l is all for open borders, last time I checked.”
Irrelevant to my point, which related to the death penalty in Georgia up to some time in the late 1990s, if I recall correctly.
But I would need to check anyway that they include ‘open borders’ in their policy documents. That would surprise me. They’re not called ‘Amnesty International’ any more, BTW, they’re called ‘Amnesty’. And when I was more closely involved, the letters that were written were generally on behalf of individuals imprisoned for political, religious, or other spurious reasons, generally in their own country. Although its policy was also to condemn the death penalty, especially where it was unfairly applied.
you are soo fulla shit.
I have done the searches [I avoid joogle but have done there].
Try ‘american inventors’ ofr a start.

Quora is a bullshit site. And you are bull shit.

“Quora is a bullshit site. ”
That’s why one wouldn’t go to it for anything more than an opinion, with what seems reasonable backup regarding why certain searches bring up certain things.
For confirmation I could ask my brother who spent the latter two thirds of his career teaching computational linguistics, I suppose.
I didn’t choose Quora BTW. How it works is that you put a question into Google and if the first site (in this case Quora) gives you what seems to be a reasonable explanation and the question isn’t life-critical, you don’t waste too much time on it.
Now, if you have an argument against the reasoning of the person who answered the question, that would avoid your ‘argument’ being just an ad hominem and a wish to appeal to greater authority (my brother would be greater authority, but I don’t think it justifies wasting his time).
“And you are bull shit.”
Thank you, my dear. Another ad hominem to add to my collection. I can always rely on your generosity in that department.
I avoid google.
I thank you for thanking me.
I am wondering if you are paid to post here.
Do you have a facebook page?
I imagine it doesn’t matter if you avoid Google – word searches presumably work in the same way whatever search engine you use, more or less.
“I am wondering if you are paid to post here.”
I know, malthuss. You told me that before. Several times.
The Angels of Sanity and Reason pay me. But not in money.
Strange since you don’t believe in Angels. And also funny since you always tell me the supernatural is just myth.
“Do you have a facebook page?
I do, but it has no photo and no information. It does have my real name, of course. I joined FB when I was doing a ‘practical horticulture’ course at our local Botanic Gardens a decade ago at least and they had a FB page,which kept me in the loop.
I’ve never posted a word or a photo, but lots of people befriended me, so I get to be nosy if I feel in the mood, while they are shortchanged. Such is life.
You really don’t do either metaphor or irony, SSL, do you? 🙂
The practice of Christianity in the West, where it still exists at all other than in some nominal fashion, has devolved to such an extent as to be incapable of offering solutions to our present condition. In many cases existing churches are actually accentuating our problems. They do this by offering aid and comfort to illegal invaders, co-opting the message and practice of politically correct, woke Social Justice, embracing all things LGBT, endorsing the promotion of minorities at the expense of the historical American White majority, and the list goes on and on. Those churches who remain steadfast in the teachings of Christ and adhere to traditional Biblical principals are steadily being marginalized and pushed out of the mainstream. And eventually just like Whites in general, Christians who actually believe what the Bible itself says will eventually be persecuted very openly and quite possibly eradicated altogether. In today’s time the churches are therefore not an answer and do not offer any relief from secular tyranny. Only the message of Christ within our hearts will bring actual relief and comfort. And because of this I am open-minded to any new system that can bring unity and strength back to our people. For without that we are certainly doomed.
If you have read the book SSL, and I do believe that you have, then you know how it ends and you should know that it gets really, really bad before it gets better. Hoping it gets better only puts off the inevitable collapse, just like how the world’s financial system is failing right now.
Come out from among them and be ye separate.
How can you separate from the thing you love?
‘Those churches who remain steadfast in the teachings of Christ —
Do you mean things like thou shall not kill and you are your brothers keeper or feed my sheep. Perhaps you mean it is easier for a rich man to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get to …………….?
What traditional values is Christianity rejecting exactly. You have not been very specific. Traditional means honor thy father and mother and have no Kardashian before me. Stuff like that.
It’s really not clear, K-Dog. SoftStarLight doesn’t seem to have in mind the Christ of Matthew 25:34-40:
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Or of Luke 10:25-37:
And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted [Jesus], saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.
But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
From what she writes, SSL prefers the voice inside her, which she attributes to Christ, that counsels her to act very differently from those two passage above. What, or who, that inner voice might actually be, I for one can’t say.
Yeah, the New Testament says nothing about tribe, fertility, land, war, marriage, etc. It simply can’t stand alone with the Old Testament. No society can run on nothing but the “turn the other cheek” ethos. We only have two and what happens after two slaps?
A gentleman seeks satisfaction not simple harmony at all costs, including honor. And without Gentlemen, there can be no religious mendicants or churches that support them.
“Yeah, the New Testament says nothing about tribe, fertility, land, war, marriage, etc. ”
It says nothing about white supremacy. Why wasn’t Jesus born as Alfred and in a more suitable place?
Jesus was White, described as having reddish hair by Roman authors who were interested in things like that. The Semites have a taboo of sorts against physical images or excessive interest in things like that. I believe Ali gives a physical description of Mohammad somewhere in his writings though.
Surely you’ve seen the images of an Aryan Christ! They may have more accurate than not…..
So you agree that the New Testament can’t stand alone – too spiritual, right? But of course you like the Old Testament even less because of its ethnocentrism and extreme practicality about the nitty gritty of life.
Christianity needs this Wisdom – or we throw the whole thing away and go back to the practices of our Celtic, Germanic, Slavic, and Mediterranean ancestors. I’d prefer a bit of both actually. The Jews were more advanced in some ways perhaps, and in any case these were often oral traditions so much has not come down to us.
Janos
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-35120965
I’d refer you to section 4.
And:
https://theconversation.com/jesus-wasnt-white-he-was-a-brown-skinned-middle-eastern-jew-heres-why-that-matters-91230
But basically I’d suggest you stop being silly. Then you can think about why he wasn’t born in Shropshire and called Alfred.
You can throw away whatever you like and hold on to whatever you like. It’s a narrative written by humans – humans can edit it to reflect their greater knowledge.
The question to you Alba is why you insist so much that Jesus is not White? Why is it so important to you that he resemble a modern Arab? You actually believe that the inhabitants of Palestine 2000 years ago before the Islamic conquest and all were exactly the same racially speaking as today’s Palestinians?
“The question to you Alba is why you insist so much that Jesus is not White? Why is it so important to you that he resemble a modern Arab? ”
Because your alternative is just nuts and is based on not the slightest whit of evidence. If your hypothesis is the ridiculous one that defies common sense and historical knowledge, it’s down to you to defend it with evidence.
the “turn the other cheek” ethos. We only have two and what happens after two slaps? – Janos
===========
Wrong, we have 4 cheeks. Think about it.
Ya but 2 are for being kicked, not slapped.
I find all this thee, thou and ye BS very tiresome.
I take it then that your attempt to read the Bible failed then? There are biblical courses that can help you, providing structure that gives meaning and thus helping to maintain interest.
Q == “I find all this thee, thou and ye BS very tiresome.”
For people who don’t like the poetry of the archaic English versions (I do), there are modern translations. You don’t need to stick with KJB.
I went with King James partly for the august poetry of the language, and partly because there are fundamentalists who believe that the KJV was divinely inspired and is the only English rendering that preserves the exact meaning of the original. Wouldn’t want to be accused of falsifying the word of the Lord, after all.
Meanwhile, no reply from SoftStarLight, much like when I pointed out her un-American position on uniting church and state in the USA. I commend her for her prudence. There’s no reply she can make in either case that doesn’t make her liable to further mockery for her evident hypocrisy.
Interesting that you only gave me two options. 1) Remain silent. 2) Respond and be mocked. Thank you for your honesty. That appears to be the general rule of thumb when interacting with hardcore Leftists.
Which is nothing to the point, SoftStarLight. JHK likes to say that it’s the sad fate of the ridiculous to be ridiculed. Likewise, it’s the fate of the hypocrite to be called out. If you don’t like being mocked, stop earning it.
Well see Elrond that is the problem with cherry picking verses to attempt to make specific points. And we all fall into this mistake from time to time. If you actually wanted to tell anyone to live like Christ you would really need to quote the entire Bible. The revelation can never be complete in pieces. No, it can only be complete when taken as a whole. The Old Testament is just as relevant as the New Testament. It appears to me that you have fallen into the modern Christian trap of believing that a few verses of Jesus’ sayings that can be construed to align with the modern concept of Social Justice are sufficient to abrogate everything else the Bible teaches. But in reality that isn’t Christianity at all Elrond. That is an example of molding the message to suit your needs. And you are accusing me of doing that. I wonder if you are projecting onto me that which you don’t want to admit is within you?
SSL: Not being a Christian, I’m under no burden of having to reconcile my own position with contradictory scriptures. I’m in the happy position of being able to say exactly what I think, without such befuddlements.
And I have ‘cherry-picked’ nothing. Lest we lose the thread, this began with you criticizing (some) present-day churches for “offering aid and comfort to illegal invaders … at the expense of the historical American White majority”. In response, I pointed out how this aid and comfort is directly supported by Christ’s own teachings. Jesus teaches his followers to admire and emulate the Samaritan, who paid out of his own pocket to care for a man who was both a stranger and a foreigner to him.
Since I assume you consider yourself Christian, what other authority do you cite when it is Jesus’ own teachings you find so objectionable? In the Bible, outside the Bible, I don’t care — give me a name, quote me a verse. And when comes the day, do you expect to gathered to his right hand, or his left? Are you a sheep or a goat?
“It appears to me that you have fallen into the modern Christian trap of believing that a few verses of Jesus’ sayings that can be construed to align with the modern concept of Social Justice are sufficient to abrogate everything else the Bible teaches”
Such hypocrisy, SSL. Have you NO SHAME at all?
You always seem to be confusing two imperatives, SSL.
The survival of the ‘white tribe’ is not the same as the purpose of Christianity and to conflate the two constantly seems a bit blasphemous within the framework of your religion.
If the white tribe were to disappear (please don’t do the hysteria thing – it’s only a hypothesis for the sake of argument), that would have no effect on you and yours getting to heaven, which is the imperative of your metaphysical belief system. In fact it might facilitate it. You’ll recall that Finca once said the natural state of the Christian is martyrdom.
Although your eternal victimhood does seem to resonate with constant talk about martyrdom, you don’t seem to relish the prospect of its conversion from idea to reality quite as much as you perhaps should. 🙂
You once said the land area currently hosting the US was the Promised Land prepared for you by Jesus, once he’d helped you with a bit of ethnic cleansing, smallpox-wise and such, obviously. Perhaps he’s double booked it and is now fulfilling a promise he made to others of his equally loved creatures, forgetting he’d signed a tenancy agreement with you too.
Don’t take the last couple of paras too seriously, SSL, I’m only pulling your delicate white leg.
As Patton said, Don’t die for your country, help the Enemy die for his. The Muslims adore matryrdom above all else. Can we deny them this?
“God created White people Alba, as he did all other people. ”
I believe God created white people…
TFTFY 🙂
And all the rest is what you believe as well.
God set specific places and boundaries for each? Oh dear… So they should all have stayed in Africa where he ‘put them’, I guess.
I don’t feel that I am confusing anything. But I am beginning to wonder if actually you are attempting to confuse me. God created White people Alba, as he did all other people. He loves all nations and peoples. That is why he created unique races and set specific places and boundaries for each. Even the twelve Hebrew tribes of ancient Israel had specific territories and borders set for them. So actually, in fact, fighting for the survival of the White race is a holy endeavor. God created White people for a specific purpose and destiny. And borders are sacred and the preservation of them a divine mission. But see the Old Testament isn’t very attractive for SJWs. You know all those references to the superiority of Theocratic Ethnostates as models for earthly government don’t sit well with modern Globalists Secularists.
Sorry, that should have gone below your comment, not below Janos.
“And borders are sacred and the preservation of them a divine mission. ”
I wonder how this all relates to the United Kingdom and Ireland, just for starters. And those Angles and Saxons who didn’t respect anyone’s borders.
And why did God ‘put’ those Indians in America?
Oh the tangled web we weave…
“You know all those references to the superiority of Theocratic Ethnostates as models for earthly government don’t sit well with modern Globalists Secularists.”
Your country has been a secular state since its inception, as far as I’m aware. Or am I missing something? Are you unapologetically anti-American, as has been suggested?
Maybe it’s you who should leave and find a bit of territory where you can live out your fantasies, since most Americans aren’t un-American in quite the same way as you. It’s a shame that Madagascar already has sitting tenants.
You could have created MadaGilead and invited your friends.
You remind me of the ultra-orthodox Jews in Israel, whose religious fundamentalism makes them so at odds with the views of average Israelis. But also of those early Puritans who wanted to find another country where they could tell everyone else what to do. America as it was eventually founded was established in exactly such a way as to prevent them doing that. But the appetite remains.
@ga
Actually if you sit back and listen Democrats are the epitome of anti-American just listen to what they say never a good thing only negative an the rhetoric is through the roof even to the point they despise the flag as a symbol of hatred and bigotry.
benr
I don’t have any sympathy with those Democrats I hear quoted or written about on here. They’re just another flavour of the same flavour, as far as I can see and both parties have agendas that aren’t favourable to the wellbeing of ordinary Americans.
I’m not into flag-waving myself, except in appropriate circumstances that involve occasional pomp and ceremony or (justified) military activity. Or international sporting events.
I just don’t get the fetishising of bits of coloured fabric otherwise. I’m a happy Brit and a happy Scot, but I don’t want to see flags all over the place as if I didn’t know where I live.
If you’re having a referendum for an independent Scotland, fair enough, then put them away and get on with making schools and hospitals fit for purpose.
But I get that you are more into flag-waving so that’s entirely up to you. If England are playing Wales or Scotland at rugby or whatever, there’s lots of respective flag-waving. But why anyone would be waving a national flag or singing a national anthem at a sporting event where both sides are American remains a mystery to me.
If England are playing – GA

What is it going to take to shut AOC the hell up? A group of pastors visited the detention centers and totally repudiated every claim she made. This woman is a psychotic liar and even when she is caught, continues lying. I wish that the House would censure her, fat chance! Even if they did she would just continue her lying elsewhere.
What an ego!

Google “Ethiopian Jews Riot in Israel.”
Thanks to the Jews of the Diaspora, we goyim now have great experience dealing with the challenges of Diversity. We should be generous in sharing the fruits of our wisdom with our friends in Israel. It’s clear that Israel has not yet learned how to be multicultural, and I think we’re gonna be part of the throes of that transformation, which must take place. Israel is not going to be the monolithic society it once was in the last century. Goyim are going to be at the center of that. It’s a huge transformation for Israel to make. They are now going into a multicultural mode, and goyim will be resented because of our leading role. But without that leading role, and without that transformation, Israel will not survive.
Yes, Jews must learn that both Israel and Judaism are multi-cultural and multi-racial entities that have little or nothing to do with the so called “Ashkenazi” Jews – who are latecomers into Judaism in any case. These White Jews caused a lot of trouble in Europe and then decided to cause trouble in Palestine.

It looks like East Africa at least since the 7th Century was profoundly influenced by A-Rab traders, first the ivory traders and then the Slave Traders. The trans-Atlantic slave trade appears to have plugged into this existing infrastructure with the Spanish discovery of the New World. As Smallpox brought over by African slaves decimated the native populations of the Americas, the Portuguese found a very lucrative market for African slave labor. I’m not sure how the mixing of the cream with the coffee affecting title to slave property? I recall from the book about Toussiant that the French in San Domingo (Haiti) had an extensive etymology describing slaves according to their relative percentage of European vs African blood. The Americans solved this moral and legal quandary with the Maxwell House “Good to the Last Drop” theory which provided that if the bloke in question has just one drop of African blood, then he’s fair game to pick cotton, tobacco or sugar cane. Obama’s family originated from Kenya in East Africa and his middle name is “Hussein”, which suggests Obama’s family may have A-Rab blood and have been involved in the slave trade?

Some rednecks claim that Harleys “work” for some people, but they DON’T work well, in any objectively quantifiable measure. The only way that a Harley-Davidson would not be the weakest link in the chain, would be if the motorcyclist simply doesn’t know how to ride. And that describes most Harley-Davidson owners. If they actually knew how to ride, they would not have select a motorcycle as weak as a Harley-Davidson to begin with.
Evelyn, mechanically Harleys are mediocre, at best. I recall an engineer telling me that a V engine mounted in-line is one of the worst orientations from an engineering standpoint. Alas, that’s a Harley signature, so obviously physics doesn’t matter. Further, the big Harley touring bikes are uncomfortable for long trips, and the Harley sports bikes are too heavy. So what’s the point of Harleys? One would need to probe the brains of their owners to determine that. They’re generally legends own their own minds. Superannuated children.

Trump is the poster boy for extreme narcissism and besides that he has one foot in dementia land also. Some people here attribute all sorts of abilities and qualities to Trump but it is all in their heads.
I believe he is the most dangerous president in our history. He is clueless and belligerent, not the best qualities for being the president of the U.S. Case in point, to this day he does not understand that the American public is paying for the tariffs on China and that they cost China nothing.
The chances are the highest ever for getting into a nuclear war with Trump at the helm. If he gets another term I believe something very bad will happen because of his lack of awareness.
>>> and besides that he has one foot in dementia land also.

Yawn. Heard that scare tactic for years now. Years later and no nukes are flying. More importantly: no one has dared to launch nukes at us. And unlike Obama, who loaded pallets of cash into a secret cargo plane and sent it to Iran, Trump is not paying appeasement taxes to our enemies for peace.

You are obviously a product of the MSM and believe everything you read from the Leftist rags.
Too bad!
I admit to being envious of people’s abilities to spot lies in newspapers that they don’t like. I wonder how leftists feel about things they read in right wing rags. I assume that if there are left wing rags, that there are right wing rags as well. Nowadays, it appears that you can create your own truth and reality to suit your own particular outlook. I guess that this must be the true freedom that our ancestors sought when they left Europe for the new world, and we are the lucky recipients of that dream as it comes to fruition.
Any attempt to exonerate the American press just got a setback with MSNBC and the major networks refusing to broadcast the July Fourth celebration. It is the press that causes the divisions in this country. We will see what CNN does today. It is no wonder the country has drifted so much to the left, look at any source of the MSM including Fox and all you see is pro socialism and anti-Trump. Even Fox, who gives more airtime now to Liberals than they ever have.
I just read the Google thread for the July 4th telecast. There were article criticizing the event and Trump from:
NYT, Washington Post, ABC, NBC, Politico, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, USA Today and a few others. No positives!

They are coming thru the Darien Gap, a fascinating wilderness that geographically joins but practically separates South America from Central America. The only break in the Pan American highway that goes from the Arctic to the tip of Patagonia. It’s a difficult area of deep jungle and swamp, but other areas like this have been paved. The difficulty is deeper – many forces and factions seem to want a separation to continue. Well, I’m all for that!
Needless to say, the Blacks must be stopped. Early success has lead to this vast increase in the numbers. If this is not stopped, it will become 350,000 and then 3,500,000.
The only way to stop this is to cut off the financial head of the organization that is pushing these people in our direction. The wall will stop them if it is effective enough. But they will still keep piling up in Northern Mexico and will still have to be dealt with. The only answer is to cut off the funding that is getting them here.

Amnesty International USA Statement on Resignation of Acting CBP Chief.
Charanya Krishnaswami, advocacy director for the Americas at Amnesty International USA:
“Children should never be held in detention at all, let alone in the appalling conditions that were detailed in reports this weekend from a Texas border patrol station.
—-Who better to lambaste USA and want to open the borders than than some activist from the land that soon may have 2 billion people? See ‘Slumdog’ before you take anything some ‘Indian Human rights advocate’ says too seriously.
Do your research before attempting to put me down, old girl.
wrt–
But I would need to check anyway that they include ‘open borders’ in their policy documents. That would surprise me.
[well color Green surprised –pun unintended].
““Children should never be held in detention at all, let alone in the appalling conditions that were detailed in reports this weekend from a Texas border patrol station.”
I don’t think children should be held in appalling conditions either, malthuss, but I don’t support open borders, so I retain my right to be surprised if Amnesty supports open borders rather than decent basic conditions for the accommodation of children. I suspect that Amnesty would agree with me that if the parents or their children should be refused refugee status, they may be sent back home, but TOGETHER.
And 7 million paying members isn’t that much out of almost 7 billion people, I’d have thought. They still get a few quid from me each month.
>>> I don’t think children should be held in appalling conditions either
So, GreenAlba, do you also agree with AOC that the detention facilities are “concentration camps.”?
Appalling conditions? These children went from having no home, no shelter, no food, and—yes—no toothpaste, to what is comparatively the lap of luxury. Food, clothing, shelter, air conditioning, toys, technology, etc.
Here’s an alternative narrative to the one the MSM has been pushing…
“We provide three hot meals a day and snacks are unlimited”
“I have seen agents on their own go out and purchase toys and bring in for the children to play with”
“frankly looks like Costco”
The fact is that some children arrive at the border on the verge of death, with diseases we haven’t seen in decades. Nowhere are the so-called “parents” held responsible. Nowhere are the nations of origin held responsible. Nowhere are the facilitating nations held responsible.
It’s just bash USA, bash Trump, ad nauseam.
Exscotticus
“So, GreenAlba, do you also agree with AOC that the detention facilities are “concentration camps.”?
Appalling conditions?”
I haven’t looked into it to a sufficient extent to answer that, Exscotticus. Nor did I pass any judgement on the conditions. I’ve only seen AOC for about a minute along with some officials of some sort look at some conditions that didn’t look great. And outside of that I don’t follow her beyond what I read on here.
The reason why I didn’t look into it to answer malthuss’ question was that that wasn’t what he said. He said that Amnesty supported open borders because they made a statement about ‘appalling conditions’.
I’m not in a position to say what the conditions are like but I’m in a position to say that a comment on the conditions isn’t anything to do with supporting open borders. Hence my comparison with my own position on the matter, which wasn’t a direct judgement on the conditions, but a judgement on the logic of the accusation.
I did mention about separating children from their parents, which doesn’t seem right to me, whether done by Trump or by Obama. And even if you do have to separate children from their parents for some reason that overrides compassion, there should never be a situation where the parents don’t know where the children are or vice versa.
L I A R
The reason why I didn’t look into it to answer malthuss’ question was that that wasn’t what he said.
He said that Amnesty supported open borders because they made a statement about ‘appalling conditions’
COPY PASTE IS—Children should never be held in detention at all
“Children should never be held in detention at all”
Why does that mean support for open borders? We have asylum seekers here who are kept in detention centres but also many who are put in normal accommodation, where they can go to school. They are registered as asylum seekers with the Home Office.
If their applications for refugee status are ultimately turned down, they have to go home, subject to appeal.
Hence no open border.
I don’t shout ‘liar’ at you when I disagree with you, malthuss.
>>> I did mention about separating children from their parents, which doesn’t seem right to me,
Agreed—providing that you can reasonably verify that the relationships are legit. Because it’s a fact that some children are being rented out to facilitate the border crossings…
DHS officials tell senators migrants are ‘renting babies’ to cross the border
>>> I haven’t looked into it to a sufficient extent to answer that, Exscotticus.
Well I hope you will agree that extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. The idea that 100k migrants per month are experiencing conditions even remotely reminiscent of Holocaust-era concentration camps is a pretty outrageous claim. Surviving victims of the Holocaust have already spoken out against AOC’s comparison. Maybe you will believe them over AOC. You should.
“Agreed—providing that you can reasonably verify that the relationships are legit.”
I am quite sure that kind of thing happens in situations like this. There is rarely a legitimate cause that isn’t put into disrepute by a minority of people who take advantage dishonestly. Then everyone else is enthusiastically tarred with the same brush or at least held in suspicion a priori.
I doubt they are anything but a small minority of those trying to gain entry. But you are right that the result means the US is entitled to check, which it seems they do. If people know that they will be DNA tested, they will eventually stop trying that ruse.
As regards the conditions generally, I’m not familiar enough with how these things are done in either the US or elsewhere. I know that detention centres in the UK are not places anyone would want to be:
https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/home-office-detention-centres-immigration-torture-abuse-deportation-risk-a8101036.html
And similarly to the US and Australia, the UK has no limits on the time a person can be held in detention:
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/oct/10/immigration-detention-how-the-uk-compares-with-other-countries
The privately run offshore detention centres the Australians use have been observed to be horrendous.
There are no easy answers in these matters and it’s obviously even more difficult when there is a glut of people all at once. If the US is genuinely overwhelmed by the administration of all this, they should demand help from the UN, since they reckon the UN is (always) at fault for morally supporting refugees.
On the other hand, people in the US seem to be unaware of how many refugees are living in other countries nearer to their homes. For example, when we were in Syria, we saw a large and organically growing refugee camp on the outskirts of Damascus which housed Iraqis bombed by your country and mine. And they already had camps of Palestinian refugees. God only knows what’s happened to them now.
Regarding the conditions in the camps and AOC, I don’t know as I haven’t seem them. I certainly don’t think it’s OK to compare such places with Nazi death camps but as far as other non-Holocaust concentration camps I’m not in a position to say. I don’t know what kind of conditions US Japanese citizens were held in during WW2 but I don’t think it’s reasonable to compare contemporary camps with anything before that time (e.g. British camps for the Boers).
Coincidentally, I happened upon an interview, part way in, of a Senator Rick Scott (Rep) of Florida on BBC’s Hardtalk last night. He was keen to insist, repeatedly, how much his state welcomed and loved immigrants. And while he also insisted (quite rightly) that the US needed to control its borders, he said that Trump’s envoy had seen one of the detention facilities and described it as ‘disgusting’. He’s seen it – I haven’t seen it. What can I say?
I don’t support ‘open borders’. To me, ‘open borders’ means people can just come in without any kind of control whatsoever. That’s a different issue entirely in my mind from how people are held and whether families are separated on entry.
Perhaps you need to do what the EU are doing with regard to the Syrian refugees in Turkey, i.e. paying Turkey to host them so that the several million who are in Turkey (and I would hope we could all agree that Syria is not in any state to welcome them home at this juncture) so that they don’t add to the already large number who have been given refuge in the EU. Maybe it would be cost effective for the US to pay Mexico to keep many of them there.
Those genuinely in need of refuge should be happy to stay there. Those who want the US or nothing would be deterred from coming in the first place.
@GreenAlba, regarding designating something as a “concentration camp”, I think a reasonable test is whether or not people are fighting to get in or out. A concentration camp is a type of detention facility (perhaps the worst type). No one willingly travels hundreds of miles to go to where conditions offer LESS BENEFIT than where they started. The idea that hundreds of thousands are willingly traveling to be incarcerated in “horrendous” conditions strains common sense credulity.
>>> paying Turkey to host them
Sounds a lot like America paying tribute to keep out an invasion force. NO.
she lies–
copy paste of what I “””
Children should never be held in detention at all
“you have the rhetoric skills of a politician ”
Rhetorical skills are a good thing to have – they make for intelligent debate. The ancient Greeks used to teach them, as do the best universities. I didn’t go to one of the best universities so nobody taught me any such thing – I have to get on as best I can, with those Angels of Sanity and Reason guarding my back.
But, while I may be mistaken from time to time, and the gaps in my knowledge are so overwhelming that it is really the knowledge that forms gaps in my ignorance, I don’t lie, so I wouldn’t last long as a politician.
You really need to move beyond this ad hom thing, malthuss.
On this board its the foreigners — Green Alba, Elrond, Majella — who hate us the most. The countries they come from already been flushed down the lefty toilet, and they seem a little put out and surprised resistance still exists in the US, They can’t understand why we haven’t been crushed yet. They don’t know us.
Brh
In what respect do you think I hate you, brh? Do quote anything I’ve said that suggests that.
I support you having control over your borders.
I support you in your efforts to hang on to your elected president.
I even support you in your efforts to have him re-elected!!
(All regardless of what I personally think of him.)
I support you in any efforts you make to make your country better by improving its environment and making your business leaders clean up their act.
OK, so I don’t want your beef and chicken pumped with growth hormones and antibiotics, but I think you’d be better without them too. Call it solidarity but not with your agribusiness oligarchs.
So, in what way do I hate you? Call it tough love, if you like. That would make you sound less like my petulant teenage cousin.
Well GA, we might just be cousins …
They say that all of us with roots in the UK are related and bound together by Anglo Saxon blood.
Howdy, Cousin!
Brh
Howdy indeed, brh. Cousins is how I see you all. I have actual cousins over there too. And in-laws. Rhode Island, Stony Point (merged with former Germans), Boston and NYC (merged with Italians). Plus wherever the cousins’ children have all gone.
Actually, my nephew who did the DNA test (that revealed our Scandi inheritance) and who’s looked into our genealogy was contacted through the ‘ancestry’ organisation by a ‘Chuck’ in Muscogee, Georgia, bearer of my father’s family name. He sent what information he had to my nephew, which I now have.
Apparently a namesake of my brother left Aberdeen (Scotland) in 1693 and died in Chesterfield, VA, in 1782.
Other members of the family appeared in South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi.
So my maternal cousins and my husband’s relatives are New Englanders, while my father’s distant cousins appear to be southerners.
Lots of Williams and James-es, which are common in my immediate family on my father’s side, but also an Odis and an Obie! Obie??
Sound like you may have Confederate ancestors, GA.
Two Confederate Generals (that I know of) have roots in Connecticut, Fighting Joe Wheeler, who attended Cheshire Academy down the road a piece, and Edmund Kirby Smith, whos roots were in New Britain.
Brh
Well, there you go, brh. There may be some Red(neck)Albas over there somewhere!
I avoid flying, as I’ve mentioned, and haven’t flown since 2014, but I feel I should maybe allow myself one trip to the States before I’m past it and possibly even one trip to the part of the world where my daughter currently is. Then I’d call it a day for good. Especially when Eurostar and the TGV are so good!
“They can’t understand why we haven’t been crushed yet”
You’ve been crushed by those who sold you the American Dream, and who should have been prosecuted under trades description legislation.

I didn’t mean you personally, brh 🙂
I love it here too despite you telling me my country’s gone down the toilet.

Green–‘says nothing about White Supremacy’– Janos has noted that he is not in that camp.
He thinks yellows may be better than YT [whitey].
East Asians have on average a higher IQ than Whites. That is an advantage for them. But Whites tend to possess more creativity and thus innovation compared to East Asians. This quality combined with an average IQ above others with the exception of East Asians obviously positions Whites with significant advantages.
GA says, “You can throw away whatever you like and hold on to whatever you like. It’s a narrative written by humans – humans can edit it to reflect their greater knowledge.”
Knowledge which may be gained through revelation. Everyone has some.
Indeed, MD, and revelation may demonstrate that it is written by humans 🙂 . That revelation may be sudden or gradual.

USA TODAY pines for the end of the USA!! == Malthus
The opinion article in USA Today is so ridiculously outrageous, that the only mental image I am getting from it is the image of the red rag being waved in front of the stupid bull’s nose.
It’s clearly a diversionary tactics and the main blow is planned from a completely different direction.
THANKS
It should be crystal clear by now that the “liberal” media is at war with American working class, and especially at war with its vanguard – the White Anglo Saxon Protestants as the most historically aware part of the population, but not only – its at war with working Black and Hispanic America as well.
Thousand of years old conflict of “perfecti” against the “profaine”.
Main objective is to plant doubts in the ability of the Commander in Chief to lead the country out of predicament it is in and provoke clashes between various ethnic groups.
You said it, brother.

Are we still only talking about the ones that aren’t red or black?

Hey Malth, did you feel the earthquake?
Maybe that was the tanks rumbling down the streets of Washington, brh 🙂 .
Which reminds me I haven’t seen the news today – best not miss the 10 o’ clock news in half an hour. I don’t want to miss my cousins’ celebrations. Or the tanks.
Thats 3000 miles fron where Malth is.
Theres only 2 tanks.
Probably the 1st time most people have seen tanks rolling,
Brh
No tanks rumbling down the street sadly as usual the leftwing has zero clue about guns, planes and military apparatus in general.
Just a couple of troop carriers and some wonderful American made aircraft.
Not Boeing 737s then, benr? I’ve just been listening to some families on the News who lost loved ones they needn’t have lost. One guy in Toronto lost his wife, all three children and his mother-in-law.
Really? What was all the fuss about then?
Abrams tanks are probably too heavy for DC streets; I wonder if there are any if the old Sherman tanks still around?
Talking about heavy armament on city streets; some of those drag queens in the Pride parades last week must have weighed in at 400 lbs at least, 5 of them on one float and your talking about a solid ton.
Brh
We make wonderful military aircraft too. Then we sell them to the Saudis who use them to murder Yemeni civilians.
Its a civil war in Yemen; the Iran backed side is killing plenty of of people too. It works both ways in that proxy war.
Brh
Yes but we’re not arming the Iranians, brh.
Motes, beams and stuff.
“Im not convinced GA is female.”
I wonder if I should take that as a compliment, give the views on this board. Or not.
Anyway, the thing is, malthie, old chum, that quite often I read JHK’s post, then the comments, with every intention of sitting it out. I really , really want to, although I admit my willpower is not impressive.
But you’ve no idea how often some provocateur or provocateuse, notably your good self, brings my feckin’ name into something without me saying anything at all. So here’s an experiment for you. Stop mentioning my name and see how it immediately reduces the instances of my getting drawn into arguments.
I’ll still be here, so I won’t let you away with anything really outrageous, but just try it.
I recall when I did take a break from commenting, you asked more than once where I was. Some people are just never happy if they’re not making trouble and stirring.
Odd I have had exactly that same thought and then someone says something anti-American and I just can’t help myself.
There are not that many anti Americans here, imo.
You shouldn’t confuse anti-American with anti-some-things-that-go-on-in-America, benr. Many of the things outsiders criticise in America aren’t good for Americans either.
If someone criticises, say, factory food standards in America, you should consider them on your side and against corporate shysters.
The only way to stop the inrush of people going to the southern border is to stop the financing of the multiple caravans. The globalists sending these folks and organizing the effort have found a chink is n the American national security armor. In a representative government, he who has the most folks runs the show.
I would really like to know how come the Lib Whites have signed on with the globalists and are trying to kill the USA.

Notes of a historical witness 2 or Google, as a means of analyzing public opinion
I wrote many times that due to some incomprehensible reasons for me, I constantly look out of the lilac bushes, out the car window, or just out the window at historical events that normal people watch on TV.
The fact is that after publishing the Putinomics 101, I went to see the news and found out that Pence’s plane returned to Washington due to an emergency at three in the morning, literally four minutes after it became known that 7 out of the 14 sailors who died on Deepwater Losharik are captains of the first rank.
I think that the Trump supporters have already gathered with full gear at mobilization localities at this point and have already negotiated with the local FBI officers about their honorary surrender, which actually caused the appearance of special show on FOX5 that Trump is OK and he needs Pence at hand and not to serve as president.
Naturally, I typed “Pence emergency” in Google and this is what I saw – the headlines speak for themselves (I made a screen shots)

https://69.media.tumblr.com/debdd18c4aa538b32aa4ffb5bd093a62/tumblr_pu4qgcDf5g1w4xuivo1_540.png
That is, Trump supporters gathered to avenge their slain leader, having calmed down a little, recalled the Kursk submarine attacked by Memphis and Toledo and tied the state of emergency in the United States with a state of emergency in Russia. And as I have repeatedly written, Trump’s supporters take Apocalypse Now very seriously.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc3G_f34Wrc
But at this stage, this phrase has nothing to do with the Vietnam War, but it worries Americans very much in terms of the color of the hat in which they will come to the relevant Judgment after Apocalypse, and they understand that if 7 Russian captains of the first rank died as a result of sabotage, the hat may be of the wrong color.
In any case, only this thought can explain the millions of requests to Google, which could force this frankly Clintonian search engine to produce the above results.
And literally half an hour later, all these sites disappeared from Google, and the very first of them, instead of talking about Losharik and Poseidon, began to carry some sort of nonsense.
I don’t quite understand the uproar over Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s sexual proclivities? Like Dr. Cosby, I don’t think that what a bloke does with his cock detracts from his Good Works.
Missionary Position….
“Livingstone had no plans to marry these women whom he observed daily in the village marketplace. That didn’t necessarily mean, however, Livingstone was chaste. Though a man of God, he was not without weakness. The missionary who arrived in Africa as a teetotal virgin had become fond of beer and champagne, and often traveled with a small bottle of brandy when he could procure it. Livingstone was also fond of women—and sex. It was only natural in a land where the intense heat made nudity preferential to being fully clothed, where sex often took place in the outdoors because the communal family hut was too small for intimacy, where the muffled sounds of furtive lovemaking could be heard at night, and where Livingstone occasionally stumbled upon Africans in the act of intercourse. It was also not surprising that a widower enduring long absences from England would want the company of a woman. Livingstone’s thoughts of sex were actually evident in his journals long before Mary died. His entry of January 8, 1854, describing a fiery African princess named Manenko, was a commentary on the brash sexuality he encountered in his travels. Livingstone wrote that she was “a tall strapping woman of about twenty . . . in a state of frightful nudity. This was not from want of clothing, for, being a chief, she might have been as well clad as her subjects, but from her peculiar style of elegance of dress. In the course of a quarrel with her entourage she advanced and receded in true oratorical style . . . and, as usual in more civilized feminine lectures, she leaned over the objects of her ire, and screamed forth all their faults and failings since they were born, and her despair at ever seeing them better.” Manenko referred to Livingstone as “my little man,” and he complained that she left him with “no power.” It was common for royal women like Manenko, if they so desired, to share the bed of passing travelers. Hypothetically, if Livingstone was so ordered, he had no choice but to make love—or be killed. Throughout his years in Africa, Livingstone’s journal admissions about sex were limited to vivid appreciations of the beautiful women he saw in his travels. But in a candid personal letter to G. E. Seward, the British Consul whom Livingstone befriended during his time on Zanzibar in 1866, the explorer revealed a telling private detail. In the course of sharing insights about expedition supplies and the vagaries of life in Africa, Livingstone displayed uncharacteristic machismo by confiding in Seward that he’d had so many African women he felt like a famously prolific biblical lover. “I had, like Solomon, three hundred wives princess (but don’t tell Mrs. Seward),” Livingstone confessed to his fellow Scot. Clearly, the vast continent of Africa held a deep spell over all outsiders who visited it. As 1871 marked the fifth year of the source search, Livingstone, like Stanley, was being changed daily by its complexities.“

Into Africa: The Epic Adventures of Stanley and Livingstone
Like Livingstone, I occasionally “stumble upon Africans in the act of intercourse.” The Bantu word seems to be “Booty”?
“The Bantu word seems to be “Booty”?”
Puck,
Yes, and it is pronounced “Boo-Tay”….
It sounds like David Livingstone drove his Victorian English wife literally nuts chasing all of that African Booty? Back then, they didn’t have all over those inter-racial couples on TV, and miscegenation was taboo.
So just another ‘Christian’ hypocrite, then.
And she couldn’t leave him because marriage then was full of Tates who insisted their wives be dependent on them.
A recipe for…well, whatever took your fancy, really.
Interesting that all you find wrong with Livingstone sleeping around while married is the colour of his lovers.
It looks like everyone at the time was “Cool” with Dr. King’s philandering provided that Dr. King didn’t poke White Women? Cosby poked lots of White Women since it was mostly White Women in Hollywood and at the Playboy Mansion. Now, after all these years, people are now suddenly critical of Dr. King, calling him a “Rapist”.
I wonder what happened to Africa when after hundreds of years the A-Arabs and the Portuguese suddenly stopped kidnapping all of the women and kids to turn into slaves, concubines, and child soldiers? Or did it ever stop? Slavery is basically “Labor Arbitrage”, right? Trump seems to have revamped NAFTA? You get Wall Talk, but the flow of cheap labor continues, which enforces illegal labor and the practice of “Labor Arbitrage”?

Yeah and it’s probably about to be rampant here in Texas since hundreds of Congo “refugees” are in San Antonio. Well they were a few weeks ago. They’ve been dispersed to gawd knows where now.
Of course if you want to pick up an exotic tropical disease you can go to LA, no need to travel all the way to Africa.

That UN definition of “Genocide”, It certainly appears that those conditions fit the definition of Genocide. Of course, Whites can’t be totally eliminated, can they? Doesn’t this spark irrational fears among Whites of the elimination of their posterity? Let’s defer these questions for the moment.
Let’s ask, first, who is pursuing this program of Genocide, assuming it is underway?
From all appearances, it is coming from within the ranks of Whites themselves. Some of us have noted the appeals to “my fellow White people,” from sundry & various White persons as they lay down the law concerning “our” best interests. Astonishing. Some of us also have noticed through a mysterious process called ‘pattern recognition’ that these sundry & various White persons exhibit certain defining features unusual to themselves. But since, at the risk of being called many bad names, we must be ’inclusive’, it becomes impossible to name these sundry & various persons as anything other than loyal White people.
As to whether Whites can be cleansed entirely off the face of the map, why NO, of course this is impossible. So they tell us. But if our blood should be adulterated through intermixture with that of other races, why that is a good thing. Invigorating, as it were. So they tell us. Even though it would seem we should have a say in it. And why does it appear, (again, through that mysterious faculty known as ‘pattern recognition’) that we are always being pushed in that direction through saturation media influence, & again, at the behest of those fellow very same White people who are disproportionately represented in said media? We do have a right to express our wishes concerning who our children & grandchildren marry, don’t we?
But whether we have any right to expect these wishes to be honored is another thing altogether. After all, we’ll just be some bleached bones sticking out of a hillside, right?
What is little understood, however, is that we are rapidly being Genocided through means other than those six named. Using those six named methods of Genocide is bad enough, but an even more insidious & effective technique of Genocide is being practiced without our having ever been alerted to its dangers.
I speak of Feminism, which encourages our most capable young women to defer childbearing until they have satisfied their ‘career’ longings, because the gift of ‘independence’ is the greatest gift we can bestow upon our precious darlings who must attend the best colleges, no matter the generational debts incurred, not to snag a husband, mind you, but to achieve [DRUM ROLL] ’independence’ [DRUM ROLL OFF]. So let’s think about that on this Independence Day.
