I remember hearing about this for the first time several years ago.

The prospects of an energy weapon being employed to produce devastating results like this was quite interesting, but it appears that that is not the case.

Trump on the War


What struck me was the claim that Trump actually said that when Russia initially put troops on the border, they were looking to negotiate.

That doesn't seem irrational at all. They would have likely looked for a deal that would liberate the DPR and LPR, maybe even just calling for an election.

That opportunity for us to assent to that and avoid a war passed when the bungling Biden administration took control.

Short Memories


This guy has a VERY short memory. Wasn't it Texas that has the big grid collapse the winter before last?

I don't think anybody really understands the logic behind this.

Why even try to explain it?

Chemical Weapons on the Horizon


"On 22 February, an influential U.S. non-governmental organisation held a conference on the events in Ukraine. Within the event, former U.S. Ambassador to Russia John Sullivan made the statement, ‘...Russian troops plan to use chemical weapons in the special military operation area...’.


"Russia regards this information as the intention of the United States itself and its accomplices to carry out a provocation in Ukraine using toxic chemicals."\

You heard it here first.

Venezuelan Socialist Conservatism


"Upwards of 84 percent of Venezuelans oppose the legalization of abortion and nearly 73 percent oppose same-sex marriage, a poll by the Venezuelan firm Meganálisis revealed this week, a strikingly conservative stance for a nation that has been officially socialist for over two decades."

Also always interesting to see this:

"Asked if they support Maduro and chavismo generally, 71.1 percent of respondents said they did not. Another 85.1 percent answered affirmatively to the statement, “socialism is synonymous with poor quality of life, migration and family separation, and poverty for all Venezuelans.”"

Resetting your tolerance to coffee can take a week - "preferably 12 days."

It depends on the existing tolerance as well as things like your bodyweight.

It just seems like some slow pitched battle to us but it's an absolute grind:

>"It's been pretty bad on the ground. A lot of casualties. The life expectancy is around four hours on the front line," Troy Offenbecker, formerly of the United States Marine Corps, told ABC News.

DH Lawrence Quote


It is the miserable story of the collapse of the white psyche. The white man’s mind and soul are divided between these two things: innocence and lust, the Spirit and Sensuality. Sensuality always carries a stigma, and is therefore more deeply desired, or lusted after. But spirituality alone gives the sense of uplift, exaltation, and “winged life”: with the inevitable reaction into sin and spite. So the white man is divided against himself. He plays off one side of himself against the other side, till it is really a tale told by an idiot, and nauseating.

Against this, one is forced to admire the stark, enduring figure of Deerslayer. He is neither spiritual nor sensual. He is a moraliser, but he always tries to moralize from actual experience, not from theory. He says: “Hurt nothing unless you’re forced to.” Yet he gets his deepest thrill of gratification, perhaps, when he puts a bullet through the heart of a beautiful buck, as it stoops to drink at the lake. Or when he brings the invisible bird fluttering down in death, out of the high blue. “Hurt nothing unless you’re forced to.” And yet he lives by death, by killing the wild things of the air and earth.

It’s not good enough.

But you have there the myth of the essential white American. All the other stuff, the love, the democracy, the floundering into lust, is a sort of by-play. The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted.

Energy Dept., FBI Believe in Lab Leak Theory


Great stuff:
----
Congressional Republicans erupted on Twitter Sunday afternoon after the U.S. Energy Department reportedly assessed that the COVID-19 pandemic likely originated from an accidental lab leak in China.

The Energy Department, which was previously undecided on the origin of the pandemic, now joins the FBI’s stance that the coronavirus likely spread due to a mishap at a Chinese laboratory, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing a classified intelligence report recently provided to the White House and key members of Congress.

The lab leak theory, or the theory that the virus came from a lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China, was widely dismissed as a conspiracy theory and "misinformation" by Democrats, major news outlets, scientists and social media companies in the early stages of the pandemic.

Now, Republicans are calling for accountability from the Chinese Communist Party as evidence mounts that it is to blame for the pandemic.

...

Both the Washington Post and the New York Times had accused Cotton of repeating a "fringe theory" when he mentioned the lab leak possibility back in February 2020. The Post issued a correction to one of its stories more than a year after calling the theory "debunked."

The Times came under fire last month after a group of 43 national security experts signed a letter accusing the Times, Time magazine, Lancet and Nature Medicine of stifling debate on the origins of the virus.
---------

Absolutely love how the press themselves are stifling debate on the origins - the free press is totally just an extension of the power of the oligarchs.

A lot is actually going on with this idea of "as they define it." McConnell even brings it up:
...
DeBar made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Saturday after McConnell (R-Ky.) said that US aid to Ukraine is a “direct investment” in the country’s interests and against Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “war machine” on the first anniversary of Russia’s war with Ukraine.

He said that US national security is tied to stability and security in Europe and preventing Russian forces from advancing in the continent.

“As my fellow leading Republicans and I have explained, it is not an act of charity for the United States and our NATO allies to help supply the Ukrainian people’s self-defense,” he said. “It is a direct investment in our own core national interests.”

McConnell pointed out that the United States has largely been sending older weapons from its stockpile to Ukraine.

“If Putin were given a green light to destabilize Europe, invading and killing at will, the long-term cost to the United States in both dollars and security risks would be astronomically higher than the miniscule fraction of our GDP that we have invested in Ukraine’s defense thus far,” he said.

He urged the Biden administration to act more resolutely in ensuring that its military assistance to Ukraine and investments happen at the “speed of relevance.”

“The road to peace lies in speedily surging Ukraine the tools they need to achieve victory as they define it,” said the Kentucky Republican.
...

It may be the case that McConnell is providing hard rhetoric while still couching it in "how they define victory." but it seems likely that he really wants a forever war.

After all, he's a republican.


As was stated in a previously posted article, the republican base is actually rejecting a lot of the war talk at this point. McConnell is likely attempting to rally them.

Absolutely fabulous waffling.

They're getting ready to push him in the direction of giving up the Donbass permanently:

War fatigue is real... Even when you're not fighting it.

There's only so many emotions that we can go through... There's only so much support we can give when we have our own problems.

Eventually, enough messaging goes out there that also breaks up the narrative they push.

We just aren't interested in your forever war no matter how emotional the appeals may be:

“If they do not change their opinion, if they do not understand us, if they do not support Ukraine, they will lose NATO, they will lose the clout of the United States, they will lose the leadership position that they enjoy in the world,” Zelesnky warned.

“They will also lose the support of [Ukraine] with 40 million people, with millions of children. Are American children any different than ours?” he demanded.

According to a Gallup poll earlier this month, nearly half of Republican respondents (47 per cent) believe that the Biden administration is doing too much to support Ukraine. In contrast, 41 per cent of Democrats said that they think the United States is not doing enough, while independents are currently evenly split, with 35 per cent coming down on each side of the issue.

Update:

"The mother of Julia Faustyna, 21, won’t hand over a genetic sample but insists she has documents proving Faustyna is her birth daughter, a private detective told the UK Sun."


Completely wild - if it is fake, she needs to be put into a mental institution for putting the family through this.

Safety vs Control


Scarecrow Video in Libtardia, er, Seattle, is the largest video repository in the world. Unfortunately they are now run by libtarded asswipes. I went there to rent a video only to see that I was required to wear a mask. I left without renting and instead gave Amazon $5 for the same video I would have rented from them for $4. I wrote scarecrow a short letter, specifically their sales department. I told them when Covid-19 first came out perhaps it was a real threat to some but not nearly of the magnitude as portrayed in mainstream media. However, Omicron has a fatality rate that is 1/5th that of the average seasonal flu. Further the Covid-19 virus is 1-2 microns in diameter, the holes in commercial masks are between 50-200 microns, so trying to stop Covid-19 with a mask is about as effective as stopping mosquitos with a barbed wire fence. I further stated exactly what this meme states, it's not about Safety, it is about Control, and I'll be damned if I'm going to allow them to control me. A local Bistro would only service people who had been vaccinated, consequently I and apparently enough people did not do business with them. They went out of business and were replaced with another that did not have this policy. Warms my heart to see this happen.

UK Taxpayers Hard At Work


Back in the scary but innocent days of March 2020 the Government and NHS sought to maximise hospital capacity. This was surely the right thing to do, given the uncertainty of the pandemic, but many of its efforts backfired badly.

First, NHS Hospitals decanted bed-blockers without testing them for SARS-CoV-2. Some were infected, igniting lethal nursing-home outbreaks. Secondly, the Government commissioned Nightingale Hospitals to great fanfare. Unfortunately, as it should have perceived beforehand and soon discovered, there weren’t enough doctors and nurses to staff these facilities. The Nightingales quietly closed over the subsequent months, having treated derisory numbers of patients. Some treated no one at all. Half a billion of taxpayers’ money went pop. Third, the Government spent £2 billion to buy-up capacity at private hospitals, which did have staff, beds and expertise. The BMJ, whose article is worth reading in full, has managed – after multiple FOI requests – to analyse how this turned out, and it isn’t pretty.

dailysceptic.org/2023/02/22/th…

He expected to fully get away with this stuff - probably because he would have never, ever been charged hadn't FTX collapsed and all of the embezzlement came to the surface.

""Bankman-Fried's use of straw donors allowed him to evade contribution limits on individual donations to candidates to whom he had already donated," reads the indictment, which adds that the "fraudulent conduct" impaired the FEC's functioning."

Masks Don't Matter


It's just not necessary:

The gold standard for medical evidence is the randomised clinical trial, and the gold standard for analysing this evidence is Cochrane (formerly the Cochrane Collaboration), the world’s largest and most respected organisation for evaluating health interventions. Funded by the National Institutes of Health and other nations’ health agencies, it’s an international network of reviewers, based in London, that has partnerships with the WHO and Wikipedia. Medical journals have hailed it for being “the best single resource for methodologic research” and for being “recognised worldwide as the highest standard in evidence-based healthcare”.

It has published a new Cochrane review of the literature on masks, including trials during the COVID-19 pandemic in hospitals and in community settings. The 15 trials compared outcomes of wearing of surgical masks versus wearing no masks, and also versus N95 masks. The review, conducted by a dozen researchers from six countries, concludes that wearing any kind of face covering “probably makes little or no difference” in reducing the spread of respiratory illness.

Stirring article...

Does anybody believe that the representatives of the former Thirteen Colonies, changing their post-Revolution organization from the original Articles of Confederation (1783) to the United States Constitution (1787) for themselves and their “Posterity,” added an implied clause that said “If our Posterity ever decide to leave this compact, you have our permission to raise a huge Federal Army, stock it with black and immigrant troops, and burn down their cities”?

The Mencken quote here is also amazing:

The doctrine is simply this: that the Union soldiers who died at Gettysburg sacrificed their lives to the cause of self-determination —“that government of the people, by the people, for the people,“ should not perish from the earth. It is difficult to imagine anything more untrue. The Union soldiers in that battle actually fought against self-determination; it was the Confederates who fought for the right of their people to govern themselves. What was the practical effect of the battle of Gettysburg? What else than the destruction of the old sovereignty of the States, i.e., of the people of the States? The Confederates went into battle free; they came out with their freedom subject to the supervision and veto of the rest of the country—and for nearly twenty years that veto was so effective that they enjoyed scarcely more liberty, in the political sense, than so many convicts in the penitentiary.

[The Vintage Mencken, pp. 79-80]

Have to use ghost archive as the original article is paywalled and from the Telegraph...

But it is worth your time, nonetheless:

It wasn’t meant to be like this: rationing is back, now being introduced in some supermarkets for fruits and vegetables. Typically, the public debate remains stuck on Brexit – or “Vegxit”. But this is much more to do with cold weather in farming regions, poor harvests in North Africa and Spain, and continued high energy costs.

...

In fact, in many respects, a regeneratively farmed environment can be better for biodiversity than “rewilded” land. Nevertheless, thanks to net zero targets, acres of productive land continue to be given over to solar farms, while the nation’s roofs remain relatively unpanelled. Trees are favoured in place of crops and animals. The Government’s flagship Environmental Land Management scheme has a bias towards cutting production. All of which won’t be much use if our people go hungry.

It’s not that there is any lack of vision around, just that the policy-makers have not allowed it to inform their decisions, sticking rigidly to the land-sparing rather than land-sharing approach of the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy.

Some fabulous information on Zelenskyy's patron & one of the most corrupt men on earth:

Kolomoisky, who also holds Israeli and Cypriot citizenship, is probably one of the worst thieves to ever walk the earth, and there has been no greater parasite feeding on Ukrainians. Once named by the Center for Corruption and Organized Crime Research (OCCRP) as being in the top four most corrupt individuals on the planet, Kolomoisky used his ownership of PrivatBank to defraud customers of around $5.5 billion in deposits, which amounted to 40% of all private deposits in Ukraine. Although now banned from entering the United States, where he has numerous assets, Kolomoisky has never been arrested in Ukraine and Zelensky shows no indications of ever bringing him to justice. Regarded as criminal by almost anyone with a brain, Kolomoisky is a hero of the international Jewish community. In 2008 Kolomsoisky was elected President of the United Jewish Community of Ukraine, and in 2010 he was elected president of the European Jewish Council.

In keeping with centuries of the same historical pattern, large-scale Jewish financial crime perpetrated by small numbers key actors continues to benefit the general Jewish population. Jews internationally have benefited for years from Kolomoisky’s plundering of the Ukrainian people. In March 2021 it emerged that two Miami-based Jews, Mordechai Korf, 48, and Uri Laber, 49, were acting as Kolomoisky’s middlemen in the United States. As well as laundering his money in various assets, the pair donated more than $11 million to nearly 70 yeshivas and religious charities (Jewish Educational Media, Colel Chabad, among others) in Brooklyn and across the state of New York. Kolomoisky is also a listed donor for Yad Vashem. Both Korf and Laber also held shares in PrivatBank, and are reported by The Forward as having pumped “about $25 million into Jewish nonprofits between 2006 and 2018.” Kolomoisky is of course the patron of “Menorah,” the largest Jewish center in the world. Entirely appropriate given its existence is owed to international robber barons, the center is home to travel agencies and banks. The official website says that the building is something “every Dnipro resident can be proud of,” to which I can only reply that I’d hope so given that, willingly or not, some of the savings and deposits of every Dnipro resident went into its construction.

Poland has fully transitioned into a democracy now that its open for foreign oligarchs to buy stakes.

In a new interview with one of Germany’s top newspapers, principal Norma Grube, who runs two schools in Chemnitz, describes increasingly chaotic conditions where many children have difficulty speaking German, assaults are commonplace, and parent-teacher meetings routinely require interpreters. In fact, there is little Grube tells Die Welt that backs the claims by pro-migration advocates that increasing diversity will bring a brighter future to Germany.

“Twenty-three different nations meet in the schoolyard, some of whom cannot understand each other at all and who sometimes come from hostile regions, such as Russia and Ukraine. We need a lot of parent-teacher talks, which mostly take place with interpreters. And that brings us to one of the reasons why the teaching profession has become less and less attractive: The psychological stress is enormous and it has increased significantly,” said Grube.

...

Grube’s story is far from unusual as Germany undergoes a massive demographic transformation, with critics of what is happening referring to the Great Replacement, the phenomenon of Europeans being replaced by non-Europeans across the West. In Berlin, 40 percent of students do not speak German as their native language, and in cities like Hamburg, the majority of students have a migrant background. Overall, an astounding 38 percent of all children in elementary schools in Germany have migrant backgrounds.

German tenants in the town of Lörrach in southern Germany, many of them elderly and barely surviving on pensions, have just learned that their apartment contracts are set to be terminated, and they will be forced out of their homes to make way for Ukrainian refugees.

The town’s housing association, which is operated by a municipal subsidiary, argued that it was terminating the contracts of approximately 40 tenants because the apartments were “particularly suitable” for refugees. The city is looking to rent the apartments directly to Ukrainians, according to the Focus media outlet.

However, there may be ulterior motives in place, as many of the residents have cheap rental agreements locked in and have been tenants for decades. New contracts with Ukrainian refugees would enable the housing association to create far more lucrative contracts, which Ukrainians could afford to pay because they are entitled to substantial sums of money through social welfare. Even for local governments, there can often be a motive to have tenants paying higher rents, as much of the money Ukrainians spend on rent would be federal money going into the town’s coffers.

Hard to tell whether or not it is a troll anymore:

On Friday, The Post exclusively revealed how Lemieux emerged from her apartment clad in men’s clothing and without the breasts, makeup and wig she wore to school earlier in the day.

A neighbor also identified the person photographed by The Post as Lemieux.

During a follow-up interview, Lemieux told The Post that her breasts were “real” and that she’s “not a transgendered person” but was born “intersex.”

Lemieux blamed the size of her breasts on a rare condition known as “gigantomastia,” which she said was caused by hormone replacement therapy she began undergoing in 2021.

Regardless... Keep it up.

Keep clowning em.

To assist illegal migrants, FEMA-funded charity workers literally meet the buses and begin distributing food, hotel rooms, rental assistance, legal counsel and health care — the very things the East Palestine victims also need. And the omnibus spending bill Biden signed in December gives FEMA a whopping $800 million expressly to pay for migrants’ needs as they arrive in US cities from the southern border.

Yet Biden is giving the people of this Ohio town — working-class, taxpaying citizens who are 98% white — the cold shoulder. Under Biden, FEMA apparently stands for First Embrace Migrants and Aliens. FEMA is the welcome wagon for illegal immigrants.

"Because it is not listed as a controlled substance for animals or humans, “tranq” lands in a confusing and horrifying gray area — and hospitals rarely test for it with routine toxicology screenings."

Imagine if these bureaucrats really did get to run our economy:

"The bargain-basement sales included nearly 3,000 mechanical ventilators that cost taxpayers $12 million but were unloaded as “non-functioning medical equipment for scrap metal” at a rock-bottom price of just $24,600 on Jan. 24, according to nonprofit news website The City."

Some mind-blowing history you never hear about:

That resolutely traditionalist country, basically all of southern Italy and Sicily, fascinated me. The Neapolitan kingdom was perhaps the most anti-liberal, traditionalist nation in all of Europe prior to it disappearance by conquest into the new centralized Italian state. Its capital, Naples, was an international center of culture and brilliance; musicians, composers, writers, and artists from all round Europe congregated there. All of that would end after Italian occupation. And southern Italy, “Due Sicilia,” would descend into an extended era of poverty, subjugation, and eventual neglect, much like that inflicted on the states of the Confederacy after the War Between the States.

But what was more intriguing for me was to learn that after the surrender of King Francis II and his small Neapolitan army at the fortress of Gaeta in late February 1861 (after an heroic four month siege), several thousand army regulars of the Royal Neapolitan Army clandestinely boarded ships, evaded a British cordon, and managed to sail for New Orleans to volunteer for the newly-formed Confederate Army. The first ships arrived from Naples with 884 former members of army of the Kingdom of Two Sicilies to take up arms for the Confederacy in early 1861. That number of Neapolitan volunteers soon rose to approximately 2000.

Nonbinary Teacher Insane-O


In clown world, people give angry speeches on video emphasizing their own irrelevance and signing off on arson & rioting:

"Black people’s bodies were literally the currency that our white founding fathers used to fund for revolution. As far as I’m concerned, as a white person, and as a history teacher, if your ancestors built this country, you have the right to burn the motherf—-r to the ground. And White people I’m [going to] need you to do better because your opinion on this is at best, irrelevant, and at worst, literally propagating white supremacy."

Moreover, since they are the experts on everything, they also apparently feel comfortable hiding whatever "gender changes" your kids may be going through because they know better than any parent possibly ever could.

"The teacher has also reportedly admitted hiding students’ gender changes, and said comments made regarding such changes were part of the district’s policy."

The analysis from Putin here is superior to what you get from the Western press, which is oddly uncritical of its governments geopolitical aspirations and heavy handed tactics in both crushing descent and forcing reform at home.

The Russian president said Moscow was not fighting the people of Ukraine, stressing that Ukraine “has become a hostage of the Kiev regime and its Western masters, which have effectively occupied the country.”
...
Putin further said Western nations were trying to "distract people’s attention" from their domestic problems.

“They just tried to use these principles of democracy and freedom to defend their totalitarian values and they tried to distract people’s attention from corruption scandals … from economic-social problems," he noted.

He said the responsibility of the simmering crisis in Ukraine was "on the West and Ukrainian elite."

“The responsibility is on the West and the Ukrainian elite and government, which does not serve the national interest, but [rather serves the interest] of third countries [which] use Ukraine as a military base to fight Russia."

The Russian president was particularly scathing in his criticism of Washington, saying the country wants to control the whole world, adding that relations with the US have degraded completely.

Ultimately, the real reason Turkey is dragging its feet is because they don't want to escalate discord with Russia...

Which makes Turkey the adult in the alliance.

Like Parag Agrawal, the former Twitter CEO who would have smashed free speech on that platform if Elon Musk hadn’t stopped him, YouTube’s new raja is no fan of unapproved speech. Two years ago, Mohan said opinionating from the “basement” had to be stopped. Be prepared for YouTube to hand control of its content to the anti-white, anti-Christian, anti-free speech, pro-Great Replacement Mainstream Media.

In 2020, Protocol’s editor-at-large David Pierce asked whether YouTube is “slightly behind” when it comes to moderating content” because of the China Virus masking debate, Tom Parker reported at Reclaim The Net [YouTube: creators “espousing” opinions “in their basement” can’t provide context on the news, April 27, 2020]:

Only “authoritative voices” must be heard on YouTube, Mohan replied, because they, not someone in the “basement,” can provide the “context” viewers need to understand news and information. In this case, it was information about masks.

Some very important information about Khan:

[L]ike all Leftists, Khan wants to go after Big Tech for not censoring enough. She has written about the plague of “disinformation and inflammatory content” on social media. She helped aid an investigation by the House antitrust subcommittee that alleged social media were bad because they allowed conservative news stories to go viral on its platforms [Democrat Led Antitrust Bills Are a Massive Gamble, by Allum Bokhari, Breitbart, June 17, 2021]. Khan has worked closely with Sandeep Vaheesan, another South Asian legal scholar, who argues that the FTC must be used as a “progressive secret weapon” that tackles “structural racism.” Khan has the power to act on that crazy recommendation [FTC Chair Lina Khan’s Co-Author: Use Antitrust to Address ‘Structural Racism,’ by Allum Bokhari, Breitbart, June 22, 2021].

>A statement, issued on Monday morning on behalf of a dozen Primates connected to the Global South Fellowship of Anglican Churches (GSFA), says that the Church of England has “chosen to break communion with those provinces who remain faithful to the historic biblical faith” by allowing blessings for same-sex couples (News, 9 February).
...
>“As the Church of England has departed from the historic faith passed down from the Apostles by this innovation in the liturgies of the Church and her pastoral practice . . . she has disqualified herself from leading the Communion as the historic ‘Mother’ Church,” the statement says.

Well done, GSFA.

“President Biden was right to make his trip to Ukraine. And we recognize the hundreds of American officials who worked long and hard to make this a secure visit,” Issa said. “But while today was a logistical success, it was a strategic failure. Rather than an inspiring mission from a commander in chief, this resembled a VIP drop-by from a global celebrity.”

How bad American schools really are:

It didn’t take Yana long to realize that real life in her eighth grade classes at Marina Middle School was nothing like the scenes that played out on her [television] screen.

Students interrupted classes, jumped on desks, cursed at teachers. At first, Yana wondered what was going on, but then, “nothing happened.” Students were not disciplined or prevented from repeat behavior.

Yana just wants to go back to her hometown in central Ukraine, back to the only school she knew before the war, even as her mom and aunt have started to research camps and other programs in San Francisco to occupy the summer months.

Pay attention to what is going on India - they are attempting to undercut Modi and to blunt the development of the Indian economy.

They don't want to see India rise, since India is a truly neutral state that will work for its own interests and not be incorporated into the Western oligarch's geopolitical ambitions.

A Meditation for the beginning of Lent

“Each of us must come to the evening of life. Each of us must enter on eternity. Each of us must come to that quiet, awful time, when we will appear before the Lord of the vineyard and answer for the deeds done in the body, whether they be good or bad. That, my dear brethren, you will have to undergo. … It will be the dread moment of expectation when your fate for eternity is in the balance and when you are about to be sent forth as the companion of either saints or devils, without possibility of change. There can be no change; there can be no reversal. As that judgment decides it, so it will be for ever and ever. Such is the particular judgment. … when we find ourselves by ourselves, one by one, in His presence and have brought before us most vividly all the thoughts, words and deeds of this past life. Who will be able to bear the sight of himself? And yet we shall be obliged steadily to confront ourselves and to see ourselves. In this life we shrink from knowing our real selves. We do not like to know how sinful we are. We love those who prophecy smooth things to us and we are angry with those who tell us of our faults. But on that day, not one fault only but all the secret, as well as evident, defects of our character will be clearly brought out. We shall see what we feared to see here and much more. And then, when the full sight of ourselves comes to us, who will not wish that he had known more of himself here, rather than leaving it for the inevitable day to reveal it all to him! …………………….We can believe what we choose. We are answerable for what we choose to believe.”

St. John Henry Newman

Not Limited to East Palestine


The big problem with this nobody mentions. While vinyl chloride burned in a high temperature incinerator might only generate water, CO2, and hydrochloric acid as byproducts, when it's burned in open like this it generates an unhealthy amount of dioxins which are strongly carcinogenic. These will enter water ways including the Ohio River, the Ohio River feeds into the Mississippi, so basically a huge portion of America's drinking water and farmland is fucked, we're all going to end up eating this shit. If they can't kill us with a lethal injection, then they poison our food and water supply. These WEF psychopaths need to be put to death while there are still any of us left alive.

It is also absolutely the case that the 9/11 lawyers would know all about this having dealt extensively with issues pertaining to the lung health of firefighters and other first responders - the lawyer stating even that that clients of his “are dying every single day from 9/11 toxic dust."

Very damning lines:

Comparing the EPA’s assurances following the 2001 terror attacks with its recent ones, Barasch, a longtime legal advocate for first responders to the 9/11 attacks and others harmed by resulting toxic dust, argued that “21 years ago, the government at least had a reason: they wanted to reopen Wall Street.”

“They should have just been honest with people then and said, ‘Look, if you don’t have to be downtown in your office, stay away until the fires go out,’” he said. “And that’s what they should have done here.”

in reply to J. Løvstuhagen

It's truly disheartening to witness the repercussions of the 9/11 toxic dust on our brave firefighters and first responders. The comparison between past and recent government assurances by Barasch is damning. Honesty and transparency are crucial. On another note, if you're looking for a diversion, you can try the CarX Street Mod APK—a thrilling racing game that might provide a much-needed escape. Stay strong, everyone!

Remarkable:

"With California’s porous southern border, soaring taxes, and ongoing flow of overbearing and occasionally bizarre regulations (one law targets cow flatulence, for example), state residents could use a break from bad news. Unfortunately, that doesn’t appear to be happening anytime soon. According to a recent report, California now leads the country in illiteracy. In fact, 23.1 percent of Californians over age 15 cannot read this sentence."

Every time they try to create oversight of agencies not explicitly for combating corruption as we understand it, it is truly just an effort at increasing the power of the government and, in this case, of their ideology.

"The order is supposed to level the racial playing field by “addressing systemic racism in our Nation’s policies and programs”, but it does nothing of the kind. In truth, the order represents a massive and disturbing restructuring of the federal government in a way that fundamentally changes the manner in which the agencies operate. The new system will feature “equity” commissars who will have nothing to do with “systemic racism”, but will be appointees designated to enforce the edicts of the state. The senior agency official (in these agency equity teams) will then coordinate with the “Gender Policy Council” which is directly linked to the executive branch of government. In short, the administration is methodically building the basic scaffolding for a centrally-controlled police state masquerading as social justice operation."

...

"Just as the Vaccine narrative was crafted by big pharma, Madison Avenue and an accommodating media, we expect that senior agency officials will generate propaganda that aligns with the Party Doctrine while advancing the agenda of elites."

Of course the policies will be sold & spoon-fed to Americans who will then think that without the government fulfilling these important tasks it'll fall apart.

Till Reexamined


Whether you like it or not, they have built a solid case:

"The answer is “Yes.” The heritability of psychopathic traits is high. For “fearless dominance,” it is 0.42, which means 42 percent of the variance for this trait is genetic. For impulsive antisocial behavior, heritability is 0.51, and for externalizing aggression it is 0.7 "

...

"She claimed that many innocent black GIs were executed during the war for having sexual affairs with white married women, who rescued their marriages by claiming they were raped. She implied that this may have been true of her estranged husband. Emmett knew in 1955 that his father was not a “war hero.” Mamie told Emmett about a vague military telegram that said his father was guilty of “wilful misconduct.”

"But amateur boxer Louis Till’s pre-war character and behavior, which included brutal domestic abuse, was also entirely in line with his being capable of rape and murder. After a trivial disagreement with Mamie—Louis didn’t want her to eat her mother’s vegetables because he was jealous of her mother’s cooking—”the next thing I knew he had pounced on me,” Mamie recalled: ..."

....

"Mamie’s book hints at other relevant factors. Emmett was a breech birth, a risk factor for later antisocial behavior and psychopathology due to brain damage."

...

"As well, witnesses couldn’t believe Emmett Till’s fearlessness as the white men took him away. His cousins recall having to monitor him at all times, even when in a store, which implies that he did not know how to behave or, more likely, did know and didn’t care. Mamie had given him “The Talk,” emphasizing that he must abide by the segregationist code of the time. Till willfully ignored this, even failing to address his abductors as “sir” in what would have been seen as a serious act of “disrespect.”"

"Engineers has estimated that fixing the country’s surface transportation infrastructure would require an investment of at least $155 billion per year, which amounts to roughly 23 percent of the government’s $666 billion budget deficit in 2017.90"

"Maritime Administrator and retired rear admiral Mark H. Buzby testified that “over the last few decades, the U.S. maritime industry has suffered losses as companies, ships, and jobs moved overseas.” The Jones Act fleet is not only shrinking, but rapidly aging. The typical economically useful life of a ship is 20 years.24 Yet three of every four U.S. container ships are more than 20 years old, and 65 percent are more than 30 years old. Excluding tankers, the ships in the Jones Act fleet currently average 30 years old, fully 11 years older than the average age of a ship in the world merchant fleet of other developed countries."

It's certainly interesting how the Holocaust narrative stays relevant even into 21st century American immigration politics.

Also you should always remember when these people start talking about their family as victims, it's the signal for you to turn your brain off and view them as exceptional moral authorities on everything that is happening.

They can't be questioned. Especially when it's the Holocaust - you aren't allowed to say anything until you then pay your respects and then circle back...

And this is how American politics is still hlbeing done in America.
