Dear KMAG: 20200614 Open Topic

It’s not just a difference of political viewpoint.

The Gospel is hidden to those who are lost,
whose unbelieving minds the god of this world has blinded.


This Sanctuary Sunday Open Thread, with full respect to those who worship God on the Sabbath, is a place to reaffirm our worship of our Creator, our Father, our King Eternal. It’s an opportunity to let the events of this world grow increasingly dim, while we focus on things above – God’s glory and grace.

“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.”

It’s also a place to read, post and discuss news that is worth knowing and sharing. Please post links to any news stories that you use as sources or quote from.

In the QTree, we’re a friendly and civil lot. We encourage free speech and the open exchange and civil discussion of different ideas. Topics aren’t constrained, and sound logic is highly encouraged, all built on a solid foundation of truth and established facts.

We have a policy of mutual respect, shown by civility. Civility encourages discussions, promotes objectivity and rational thought in discourse, and camaraderie in the participants – characteristics we strive toward in our Q Tree community.

Please show respect and consideration for your fellow QTreepers. Before hitting the “post” button, please proofread your post and make sure you’re addressing the issue only, and not trying to confront the poster.

Keep to the topic – avoid “you” and “your”. Here in The Q Tree, personal attacks, name calling, ridicule, insults, baiting and other conduct for which a penalty flag would be thrown are VERBOTEN.

In The Q Tree, we’re compatriots, sitting around the campfire, roasting hot dogs, making s’mores and discussing, agreeing, and disagreeing about whatever interests us. This board will remain a home for those who seek respectful conversations.

Please also consider the Guidelines for posting and discussion , outlined here. Let’s not give the Internet Censors a reason to shut down this intellectual haven that Wolf has created for us.


The Storm is upon us.
Please remember to Pray for our President.


Our movement is about
replacing a failed and CORRUPT political establishment
with a new government
controlled by you, the American People.

~ Candidate Donald J. Trump


Also remember Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And,


On this day and every day –

God is in Control
. . . and His Grace is Sufficient, so . . .
Keep Looking Up


Hopefully, every Sunday, you can find something here that will build you up a little . . . give you a smile . . . and add some joy or peace, very much needed in all our lives.

“This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn nor weep.” . . . “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”


The Signs of the Times

WuFlu Spreads – Nursing Homes Decimated – Isolation – Social Distancing

Excessive Force – Racial Prejudice – Riots – Looting – Burnings – Injuries – Death

Throw Water, Then “Shakes” – Then Bottles, Bricks, Bullets and Bombs

Hands Up – Take A Knee – Defund Police – Sign Black Agenda

Demonstrate In Parks, Then Streets – Occupy City Hall, Then Precinct

Antifa – Black Lives Matter – Marxists – Socialist Bureaucrats

Lying Media – Corrupt Politicians – Traitors – Anarchists


Millions in the U.S. either personally believe or support people who believe that:

  • Although the threat of spread of COVID-19 requires that businesses and churches must be closed, families isolated in their homes, people prohibited from using parks or walking alone on a deserted beach, it’s acceptable for thousands of people to gather together for hours to protest police use of excessive force, and, in the process, killing and injuring people, looting and burning businesses.
  • Although 3,000 Black Americans are murdered by Black Americans every year without public protest, it’s acceptable to riot, causing multiple deaths, hundreds of police injuries, and hundreds of millions of dollars of damage, because systemic racial prejudice by police is baselessly assumed as the root cause of the death of a drug addicted, porn acting, counterfeit money-passing career criminal with multiple convictions and jail sentences.
  • Although pets and other animals must be treated with care and compassion, it’s acceptable to strike people you disagree with politically with bike locks, hammers, 2 x 4s and the like.
  • Although micro aggressions must be identified and stopped because they’re hurtful, it’s acceptable to loot and burn down businesses as a means of protesting policies or actions you disagree with.
  • Although COVID-19 requires that extreme isolation and quarantine actions be taken to prevent its spread, it’s acceptable to require that COVID-19 positive patients be placed in nursing homes with elderly patients with comorbidities who are the most vulnerable group for death in the U.S. population.
  • Although your psychological health and physical well-being must be protected, it’s acceptable to mechanically tear apart babies in the womb or cut the spinal cord of their exposed heads with scissors to kill them, and then to sell their body parts for thousands of dollars.
  • Although Socialist leaders and regimes have ruined the lives and caused the deaths of millions of people in the last century, it’s acceptable to insist on more and more Socialist policies be included in the laws and services of our democratic constitutional republic, the most successful government on earth.

These “Although” and “it’s acceptable” examples are just a few of the many inexplicable dichotomies that are integral to the destructive mindset of millions.

Most of us are bewildered at the lack of facts and logic that are inherent to this mindset.  We can’t comprehend how these harmful views can be held by any rational person, let alone millions of them.

Our laws are generally based on our Judeo-Christian heritage, principles and beliefs.  And therein, I believe, lies the root of the problem.

The two great principles that form the basis of Jewish and Christian thought and practice are:

Deuteronomy 6:5  You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.

Or, more expansively,

Deuteronomy 10:12-13  And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments of the Lord and His statutes which I command you today for your good?

And,

Leviticus 19:18  You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am the Lord.

Leviticus 19:34  The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt; I am the Lord your God.

And, of course, as summarized by Jesus,

Matthew 22:36-40  Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?  Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”

Love God and love your neighbor.  These are simple in concept, but, because we are weak, flawed and fallible humans, impossible in practice. 

But, these are God’s commands for us and, because He knows they are impossible for us in practice, “He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”  This is the Gospel that forms the beginning and foundation for our Christian beliefs.

If you try to apply general Christian teachings to support any of the “Although” and “it’s acceptable” examples above, you will fail.

Do we have Christian principles that tend to support forming crowds to protest certain actions . . . crowds that are first merely disruptive, but then lead to disobeying police, physical violence, looting, burning of businesses and injury and death?

1 Peter 2:17  – Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor.

Romans 13:1 – Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

Romans 12:18  If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

1 Timothy 2:1-2 – I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people – for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.

Do we have Christian principles that would in any way condone policies that endanger then result in deaths of thousands of elderly?  The elderly are not people who have become a burden on society and who are now subject to removal.

Leviticus 19:32 “You shall stand up before the gray head and honor the face of an old man, and you shall fear your God: I am the Lord.

Do we have Christian principles that even remotely permit the killing of a baby in the womb, let alone allowing a born baby to dehydrate and die over a period of days after birth?

Job 31:15  Did not He who made me in the womb make him, and the same One fashion us in the womb?

Jeremiah 1:5  Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you;

Do we have Christian principles that mandate or support Socialism as a form of government?

There are many Biblical examples for those that have material goods to remember and even be generous to the poor.  But there is nothing that mandates or supports local government in confiscating the wealth of those that have more and distributing it to those that have less.

We are guided in our ethics, our morals, and our sense of right and wrong by God’s Word, our parents, our pastors, our friends and associates and the influence that God’s Word has had on society as a whole and our general precepts and specific laws.

But, referring back to the destructive mindset, there are millions in our country who don’t seem to be influenced by Judeo-Christian principles.  They seem to live at a different level of understanding than we do.  They don’t need and won’t accept facts or logic that contradict or show the negative consequences of their destructive mindset.

It’s as though they have fallen under the influence and control of something or someone else.  Well, perhaps that is exactly the answer.

John 1:5  The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

Romans 1:28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.

1 Corinthians 2:14  But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised.

2 Corinthians 4:3-4  But even if our gospel is hidden, it is hidden only to those who are lost, whose unbelieving minds the god of this world has blinded, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

And that, I believe, is why it is entirely appropriate to label the violent demonstrations, the physical attacks on police and on the people supporting President Trump, the looting and burning of businesses, the resultant injuries and deaths, the recent calls to defund or disband those that enforce our laws, . . . all these actions operating in opposition to the Judeo-Christian principles that guide our lives . . . as evil, absolutely evil.

We may sooner or later get out of the messes that are near or at the level of a direct threat against the continued existence of our country, but we must not forget . . .

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”


Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps,
His day is marching on.

I have read His fiery gospel writ in rows of burnished steel!
“As ye deal with my contemners, so with you My grace shall deal!
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel,”
Since God is marching on.

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him; be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me;
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free!
While God is marching on.

Valerie Curren

Can anyone explain the physics of this so that a layperson Might understand?
https://twitter.com/truthserum4all/status/1271816172225400832

pgroup

The theory is that 600+ satellites in a low earth orbit can cover the earth’s surface with wireless signals so that no matter where you are you can have high speed internet access. Just like cell service – a call gets handed off to the next tower as the person moves for a seamless connection (not quite yet 100%).
So far about 60% have been launched and are zipping around up there, waiting for the rest so the system can be turned on.
What surprises me is the lack of visible pushback from the legacy internet providers. Elon’s vision threatens their very existence yet I find no “concern” in the news.

Valerie Curren

Purely altruistic of course, no Orwellian implications…

para59r

According to astrobob there are 20,000 satellites, living and dead right now. 2nd link is on first link page and provides a real time track. You can still see one of Musk’s train of satellites still climbing to higher orbit where they are supposed then separate for their own orbits. Red is satellite blue is rocket body and grey is debris.
https://astrobob.areavoices.com/2018/04/10/watch-20000-satellites-orbit-earth-in-real-time-simply-amazing/
http://stuffin.space
stuffin.space does not look like a regular link. It’s the 2nd pic from the first link if it does not work.

Elizabeth Carter

Para, The links are fascinating. stuffin.space worked for me too. It is getting crowded up there!! Thanks for the explanation also.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

The debris is a downright hazard. Even something the size of a grain of sand packs a whollop at 20,000 MPH, and it’s quite possible for two objects in earth orbit to be heading in different directions and have a head-on. A piece a centimeter across–probably too small to be tracked from Earth–can be like a hand grenade.comment image?quality=75&strip=all&w=450&h=253&crop=1
You have to be moving at about five miles per second (relative to a non-rotating reference frame) to be in low earth orbit. (Higher orbits will be slower but will require more energy to get to.)
And this is a problem that is getting worse with time as more rockets are launched–they tend to “litter” a lot–and collisions, of course, only generate more debris.

cthulhu

Rockets work by spewing out stuff. That stuff is hotter and chemically distinct from the atmosphere, so forms a “bubble” while temperatures equalize and things get ready to mix. Under the right conditions, the bubble can be illuminated from the side and appear like a balloon hanging off the rocket.
Is that the sort of explanation you’re looking for?

Valerie Curren

Sure that helps me a bit…Thanks!

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Not that this really has anything to do with this, but sometimes a VERY high altitude cloud is brightly lit suprisingly late after sunset (or early before sunrise).

His wife Jill is a doctor – an educator with a masters degree – taught adolescents with emotional disabilities at a psychiatric hospital – appropriate specialty to deal with Joe Biden’s second childhood.

GA/FL

Oops – not a doctor – that is another Democrat’s wife….can’t remember which, right now.

TheseTruths

Jill Biden has a doctor of education degree.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Oh, my now I am IMPRESSED.
That is sarcasm.
I’ve run into Doctors of Education who couldn’t multiply two numbers that are powers of ten. I’m not making this up.
I have an M. E. degree, but the “E” stands for Engineering. One of the three worst inadvertent insults I ever got was when some reporter for the local paper (and this particular reporter liked to engage in character assassination, so I was already walking on eggshells) asked me if that was a Master of Education.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

The easiest way to do it, if you’re caught without a ruler and a picture, is to lay down five rows of six–that’s often pretty easy to do by eyeball, but not when you’re standing in the middle of it–then go back and, for each “square” of four stars on the corners–there are now four rows of five squares each–put another star in the center of the square.

I’ve spent much of the day searching for this tweet. Does anyone know more of the backstory or good source(s) for this crisis actor theory?

wheatietoo

I saw some blurbs on twitter about Derek Chauvin having an IMDb page…and is listed as an actor.
Tried to find those, but couldn’t.
But I did find this video about it:
[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEpWWqWvoFw&w=774&h=359%5D
.
.
Here is a link to his IMDb page:
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm11618340/?ref_=nmbio_bio_nm
It shows 12 Credits for him…all in 2020.
The bio seems to fit him.
There is so much about that scene with George Floyd that doesn’t make sense.
It’s hard not to wonder if it was staged.

Valerie Curren

Thanks Wheatie! More to check into…when the mood strikes!

patfrederick

the story I saw about the “credits” for him was this: any time a news source uses a person’s image (like a cop) in a news clip or article and they identify him, he is given a “credit” on that IMDb site…
I’m not saying that story is true…just reporting that that’s how it was “explained” at the time it came out.

wheatietoo

Ah…thanks, Pat.
If memory serves, all the credits on his IMDb page list him as “Self”.
So that makes sense.

patfrederick

your welcome…it might be true or just a cover story, but that was what was presented at the time…

kea

This sounds like bs to me. Someone also has to update and submit the info to the site. See if other officers a listed like this. imdb is also owned by a big tech company

patfrederick

i am not familiar with this site so I can’t vouch for the info, just that it was presented as an explanation.

kea

Oh no I fully understand.
When I had to add something long ago I had to full out the info and such. Plus register.
It should say what he showed up in. Or it could have been added later on as a cover up.

scott467

There is more about this, and more photo comparisons, on the June 10th Politicalmoonshine article, scroll about halfway down the page.

Also, FWIW, I mentioned a while back that the forearm of the cop who was kneeling on George Floyd looked like a twig, it didn’t look like the arm of any 17+ year police veteran or nightclub bouncer tough-guy.

Nicely done!
I like your Signs of the Times list…and your list of “Although” and “it’s acceptable” examples is spot on.
The Left has created a cult — a Cult Of Acceptable Violence.
And they have unleashed it on us.
Their credo is: Gain Power By Any Means Necessary.
They even have an org named BAMN = By any means necessary.
They create Lies to justify their hatred and destruction.
The enemedia parrots their lies, repeating them over and over…to keep their useful idiots motivated.
This is a battle between good and evil.

scott467

“They even have an org named BAMN = By any means necessary.”
___________
They’re hardcore acronymophiles 😁

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

They even have an org named BAMN = By any means necessary.

They are willing to KEEP power (once they’ve gotten it) by any means necessary, too.
When the Bolsheviks took over Russia, they almost immediately signed a peace treaty with the Kaiser, because the war had become deeply unpopular–it was the provisional government’s insistence on staying in it that had caused fringe groups to become more popular in the first place. The Bolsheviks gave up all of Ukraine, the Baltics, Finland, and large swaths of what is now Belarus as well.
It let them stay in power, and they figured they could get all of that back someday–which they eventually did, except for Finland.

TURKEY MOVES TO RECLAIM BASILICA AS MOSQUE
ISTANBUL (ChurchMilitant.com) – Turkey’s highest administrative court is under pressure from radical Islamic President Recep Erdoğan and a majority of Turks to reclaim the world’s greatest Byzantine basilica as a mosque.
Emperor Justinian the Great dedicated the Church of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople to the Wisdom of God in 537. Sultan Mohammed II conquered Constantinople and converted the basilica into a mosque in 1453. President Kemal Atatürk, founder of the Republic of Turkey, turned the mosque into a museum as part of his secularist reforms in 1934.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Since 1934 a lot of restoration work has been done, to uncover Byzantine art of angels, etc. that was painted over after 1453.
I guess that stuff gets covered up again. Glad I visited when I had the chance.

gees…new spying technique…lamphone. using a light bulb to pick up conversatons without havig ANY devices in the actual room…
FTA
The list of sophisticated eavesdropping techniques has grown steadily over years: wiretaps, hacked phones, bugs in the wall—even bouncing lasers off of a building’s glass to pick up conversations inside. Now add another tool for audio spies: Any light bulb in a room that might be visible from a window.
Researchers from Israeli’s Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and the Weizmann Institute of Science today revealed a new technique for long-distance eavesdropping they call “lamphone.” They say it allows anyone with a laptop and less than a thousand dollars of equipment—just a telescope and a $400 electro-optical sensor—to listen in on any sounds in a room that’s hundreds of feet away in real-time, simply by observing the minuscule vibrations those sounds create on the glass surface of a light bulb inside. By measuring the tiny changes in light output from the bulb that those vibrations cause, the researchers show that a spy can pick up sound clearly enough to discern the contents of conversations or even recognize a piece of music.
“Any sound in the room can be recovered from the room with no requirement to hack anything and no device in the room,” says Ben Nassi, a security researcher at Ben-Gurion who developed the technique with fellow researchers Yaron Pirutin and Boris Zadov, and who plans to present their findings at the Black Hat security conference in August. “You just need line of sight to a hanging bulb, and this is it.”

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

This is a very important lead-in to something people need to understand. Let me describe HOW these guys KNEW that this would work.
There are light bulbs now – VERY CHEAP – made in China, of course – that operate on VOICE COMMANDS – pretty much “Alexa bulbs” – that also communicate to home systems over WI-FI to obtain speech analysis. There are also electrical wall socket adapters – pretty much “Alexa sockets” – that also communicate to home systems over WI-FI to obtain speech analysis.
These things can be installed in any hotel or motel room as a “convenience” – BUT if you look deep at what is actually happening…..
Your voice is picked up by the bulb or socket.
Your voice is sent away to somebody else’s computer over the internet.
Your voice is analyzed.
Commands are sent back to the bulb.
The light turns off.
There is no more dramatic demonstration of espionage in the name of convenience than this.
THIS is the actual problem, IMO. This gets around all the high-tech stuff. PURE BEZMENOV. Yuri Bezmenov always laughed at the James Bond stuff. THIS IS WHY. Disinformation, active measures, changing American thinking and behavior without Americans understanding – THAT is where big things are possible.
Now, what the Israelis did is take the fundamentals and merge them with existing espionage tech that uses windowpanes as sound-pickups. They noted that the lightbulbs are sound pick-ups – maybe THEY can be used in the same way or a similar way to windowpanes.
YUP. It works. But it works much better to make people install permanent spy devices themselves.

patfrederick

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

patfrederick

kalbokalbs

A few sketchy thoughts.
Early PC days. TEMPEST (Telecommunications Electronics Materials Protected from Emanating Spurious Transmissions). Mid 80s?
What this slow guy understood at the time, bad guys could pick up transmissions from PC keyboard key strokes…know what was being typed on the keyboard. Did this through windows.
Now light bulbs.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

This light bulb idea is more akin to reading vibrations on windowpanes. Nothing electrical/electronic involved (other than that the lightbulb is glowing because it’s powered by electricity, but electrically speaking, it’s nothing more than a resistor).
TEMPEST–actual radio signals (“noise”) emitted by devices–has been, and STILL IS, a big issue and that’s why computers doing highly classified work are enclosed inside of big Faraday cages.

pgroup

I see a future where high level security clearance requires the person to be fluent in American Sign Language.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

That’s scary, but this is something fundamentally different.
Just an ordinary dumb lighbulb will vibrate in response to sound waves, and those vibrations can be detected by watching it from afar.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Light bulbs are excellent pick-ups, no matter what technology! Nice thin 3-D eardrum!

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Reality Check: Did anybody notice that the initial story based on video that missed the CRITICAL MOMENTS of the shooting was a LIE that the unarmed perp was SHOT IN THE BACK? Once we got the actual story, it turned out that the perp had grabbed a taser and then POINTED IT at the pursuing policeman AT SHORT RANGE – meaning at EFFECTIVE RANGE – and was SHOT IN THE FRONT. This is very similar to Guginogate, where the critical moment is missing from the “social justice priming” video.

drillerelite

I guess it doesn’t matter. A black man gets killed by police while being a total idiot then we gotta riot and something better burn!

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

True, they’re gonna burn stuff, but this is a turn-around point, IMO, and many no-nonsense blacks are gonna make a stand here and call BS on this.
Personally, I myself cannot grab a cop’s taser and not get shot if I TURN IT ON HIM.
In fact, this is highly demonstrative of the attitude of UTTER CHUTZPAH of the black THUG class who get exempted where WHITE THUGS do not.
White Thug pulls a cop’s NON-LETHAL defense and gets SHOT by his remaining LETHAL DEFENSE – he don’t have the commie-provided CHUTZPAH to claim the cop ain’t in the right. Black Thug is EXCUSED BY SKIN COLOR.
Time to call BS on it.

Through the additional introduction, Stewart will place the film in its “multiple historical contexts.”

Obama’s plan cited over and over again in a new Police Bill introduced by Dems
FTA
The police reform bill introduced by Democrats in Congress empowers leftist groups such as the open borders National Council of La Raza (NCLR) to monitor cops nationwide and creates development and training programs based on an Obama initiative to hire minority police officers by disregarding the criminal records of candidates from “underrepresented communities” and lowering standards on written exams. Known as the Task Force on 21st Century Policing, the Obama plan is repeatedly cited in the new bill’s 134-page text and promotional material and clearly serves as a key model.
The recently crafted Justice in Policing Act of 2020 gives “community-based” and “grassroots” organizations the authority to supervise police misconduct. Besides the NCLR, the bill lists the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the National Urban League among groups that will receive compensation from the government via “public safety innovation grants” to keep police in check. All are renowned leftist groups with a documented history of advancing a liberal agenda. The legislation will transform policing, according to California Congresswoman Karen Bass, chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. “For over 100 years, Black communities in America have sadly been marching against police abuse and calling for the police to protect and serve them as they do others,” Bass said in a press release announcing the legislation this week. “Never again should the world be subjected to witnessing what we saw on the streets in Minnesota with George Floyd.” California Senator Kamala Harris, the state’s former attorney general, claims that “America’s sidewalks are stained with Black blood” and calls the measure “historic legislation that will get our country on a path forward.”

Hmmm. Trans…
Didn’t know there were any gearheads left…
That would be a “Double A (AA) aaaaaaaanddd an MCO (AAMCO)”…..
Ahhh. Those were the days. Paying $400.00 for a $150.00 transmission job… No wonder the muffler shops were named “MIdas”…
Trans – people who are too dam-ed stupid to know if they’re male or female…

The Virus positive cases in SC have a lot to do with increased testing….a very small town nearby had over 300 people lined up for testing a few days ago. As we all know, being tested “positive” does not mean you actually have the Virus. Our local hospital shows 30 cases of “positives” but none are hospitalized with Coronavirus. Makes good fodder for the scare tactics..

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I read somewhere that the commies at CDC are now mixing the numbers of antibody positives into the viral positives.

TakeBackOurRepublic

The CDC has lost all credibility (if it ever had any). COVID positive numbers are as fake as the polls.

Carl, Me thinks, Covid wise, NV is in good shape and getting better. Every day. Zero thanks to Sisolak.
Suggest bookmark a couple links below if you don’t have them…

^^^ Nine slides – great data.
– Daily moar tests.
– Yes, increased cases. Goes WITH moar tests.
– Confirmed + suspected, still trending down.
– Deaths trending down.
– Hospitals in great shape (available beds, ICU, ventilators).
– Positives well BELOW 10% threshold of concern…moar than a month!

^^^ Click on what looks like a slide – Covid 19.
– Three slides. Crystal clear NV is trending down.
*https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/
From Worldometers NV
Total cases 11,173
– Deaths 464
– Active 2,671
= Recovered 8,038 = 71%
One of the things I never do, I don’t watch any “local” news. Fools out of Reno are far to shrill and predictable…out to lunch Quite depressing. I suspect fools out of Vegas are equally out to lunch.

kalbokalbs

Yea. Our age groups trend 12%-13%. Occasionally 14% or 15% for a day, then back down.
Me thinks we are doing fine. Flep’s daily news, our daily articles, folks posts and a few reliable web sites support maintaining an even keel – sanity.

kalbokalbs

Guessing South Carolina had there highest number of tests…yielding higher positives.

One minute ago posted links. Data mostly updated daily.
IF I come down with ChiCom-19, I’ll demand HCQ, Zpak and zinc. IF they refuse, I am on the road to a friendly state that will treat me aggressively.

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Be careful about the numbers. I read just a short while back that CDC is actually mixing antibody positives into virus positives for some of its output. Some doctor / epidemiologist was ranting about how this was messing up the American data. I’ll let you know if I find the link again.

singingsoul1

Wolf you are on to something.
My molecular biologist son told me the tests are not accurate and therefore unreliable.

GA/FL

FL has a high rate of new cases – but very low rate of daily deaths.
Goes along with the news that the virus is mutating into a less powerful/less virulent form.
Plus – FL has increased testing so that means more positives.
The rate of positivity is also half of what it was at the height of the shut down and rise of cases – 5.4% instead of 10.8%

Dear Q, President Trump, and AG Barr,

kea

I find it of note that Richard Grenell was praising Barr. Maybe because we want something to happen.

ForGodandCountry

I’d like to see some kind of show of good faith.
An indictment, any indictment, would be a nice start.

kea

Your not the only one.

Patriot enthusiasm seems dangerously low. My usual peeps are quiet and subdued. Not normal. At all.

Deplorable Patriot

It’s summer. The weather is lovely. We’re not subdued so much as outside blowing bubbles with the special needs nephew.

ForGodandCountry

That’s you, not my offline peeps. BTW…
What is the brink?
I’d like to know so I’ll recognize it when it gets here.

Deplorable Patriot

No clue, but I’m betting we’ll know it when we see it…or when Q tells us we’re there.

ForGodandCountry

You have no clue?
Then how do you know we are not at the brink??

Deplorable Patriot

Because the wholesale cause for change hasn’t happened yet.

ForGodandCountry

The what??

Deplorable Patriot

Oh, just watch the show and sing along with my special needs nephew who came down the stairs piping this in perfect pitch this evening:
https://youtu.be/40cT6I21JV4

ForGodandCountry

I have special needs too, ya know.
I have a special need for AG Barr and USA Durham to unseal indictments and put known felons in jail. I have a need for AG Barr to indict several democrat governors, one in particular on murder charges. I have a need for AG Barr to arrest known news personalities for inciting riot and violence.
This is just the beginning of my special needs list.

Deplorable Patriot

Americans are so friggin’ impatient.

kalbokalbs

A bit of wind out our sails after the lock down, economy manually shutdown, riots…
Guessing summer, economy opening, rallies and such will get things back towards full steam ahead.
YSM not calling out Biden dementia is numbing. YSM not calling out the rioters, terrorists, silent D-Rat “leaders”, is stunning.
100%, Covid and the riots deep state extension of resist…muh Russia, Ukraine, impeachment…
We’ve endured four four f@cken years of total resist. When I figure they have nothing left, I reckon with October…ChiCom-19 surges, Chauvin walks and RBG bites the dust. One evry ten days in October. Then we vote 3 November.
We’ll get some indictments, but they’ll be poo poo’d away by YSM. We’ll never see hussein indicted, IMO. Would like at least hussein an un-indicted co-conspirator.
We need to maintain focus…re-elect President Trump. Bring along as many voters as we can. Against all odds, we won in 16. We’ll win again 3 November.
Absolutely guaranteed, any alternative to President Trump winning, WILL hasten crossing over the brink threshold and rapid deterioration of America as we know it.

It’s the german wing of the Soros movement.

Great answer!

GA/FL

They are ‘conditioning’ the participants – and redefining racism the way that the overlords want it to be perceived and understood.
