Dear KAG: 20200625 Open Thread

Now that the Flynn case is all but dismissed, time for this.

Q has given us marching orders as of yesterday:

Q

Looks like re-education of the public is on the anons.

Here’s the text of the oath of office many are reciting. Making a video and posting it somewhere is a personal decision for each American.

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

_______________________________________________

As usual, this is the daily thread, the place to put all information that needs to be out there – Q drops, Q drop decodes, potential riot information, rumors about MAGA rallies starting up again, news flashes, WuFlu updates (is that still a thing?), satire, memes, and of course cute animal videos.

In the meantime, the short and sweet version of “THE RULES” is here borrowed from Tuesday:

Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.

The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out.

This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.

Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:

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

Since it is almost the weekend, the reminders are in place to not swing from the chandeliers, wash your hands and face, marinate the ribs, and be nice to the liberals whether they deserve it or not. Making your bed, OTOH, is optional.

And now, a history lesson for the kids.

__________________________________________________


MT 7:21-29

Jesus said to his disciples:
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’
will enter the Kingdom of heaven,
but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.
Many will say to me on that day,
‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name?
Did we not drive out demons in your name?
Did we not do mighty deeds in your name?’
Then I will declare to them solemnly,
‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you evildoers.’

“Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them
will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.
The rain fell, the floods came,
and the winds blew and buffeted the house.
But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock.
And everyone who listens to these words of mine
but does not act on them
will be like a fool who built his house on sand.
The rain fell, the floods came,
and the winds blew and buffeted the house.
And it collapsed and was completely ruined.”

When Jesus finished these words,
the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
for he taught them as one having authority,
and not as their scribes.

Here’s to avoiding speed traps and liberal Karens empowered by the nanny state who feel they must lecture the rest of us on proper social distancing and decorum, and all the insurrectionists arrested.

Are we ready?

That telephone video must have been made by someone who took pity on various young ‘uns in videos trying to figure out how to use a rotary dial phone that had all of us older ones rof!

cthulhu

For even more fun, a Maker maniac wired up a Western Electric Dial to an Android phone. Fits in a pocket, you have to use the rotary dial to make a call.

Deplorable Patriot

I found several “how to use your Bell phone” videos from the 1950s, but they were ten minutes long. Who has that kind of time anymore?

wheatietoo

I saw a video a couple of years ago…same sort of theme, Millennials and a rotary phone.
In that video, though, someone just showed a couple of millennials a rotary phone and challenged them to make a call on it.
It was funny.
They couldn’t figure out how to dial a full number on the rotary dial.
Haaaaa.
😆
They also thought that they should probably hold down the buttons while dialing.
🤪
I noticed that the guy in the video above said that that rotary phone was from the 80’s…
From what I remember, rotary phones were phased out in the 70’s when the ‘new push-button phones’ became a big thing.
We had a push-button wall phone in the kitchen area.
And my parents put in a push-button princess phone in the hallway…with a 20 ft. cord…for us kids to share.
Heheh.
Nice work on the thread post, DePat.
😍👏👍
Thanks for doing three of these through the week!
Love the video of the baseball player collisions!
😄 Hah.

Deplorable Patriot

You could still get rotaries in the 80s, but they weren’t common, that’s for sure. I know our phone in the kitchen was a push button as of 1983. The previous one was a rotary.

CM in TN

We still had a rotary until around ’85 or so, a wall mount. We then got pretty much the same phone, only with the buttons to replace it. I do remember those “new” phones that came out with the really big number buttons, but we never had one of those.

wheatietoo

Ah…well, the Westinghouse plant that made the touch-tone push-button phones was a few miles from us.
So maybe that’s why we got them earlier than other parts of the country?
I dunno.
Back then, the phone company furnished your phones.
You didn’t have to buy them.

CM in TN

Maybe, we had Bell Atlantic back then.

Teagan

Okay, really dating myself here! LOL. Grew up in a very rural area and not only did we have a “party line” (for all you young ones, that meant a group of about 8-10 neighbors shared the same telephone line…also meant anyone could listen in on your conversations)….but, our phone was also identified by a code of “rings.”
For example, our phone was “2 shorts” ( quick ring, ring). A neighbor might have a “long and 2 shorts….r,,I,,n,,g,,,then ring, ring.” So, of course, we all knew who was getting a call. If you were going to be away, you often asked a neighbor (often a family member) to answer the phone for you. Remember, phones were basically used as necessity and rarely just for idle conversation.
Our telephone number…19×1.
As always, we had one older, nosy neighbor who write a “social” (ha!) column for the tiny newspaper who was on our party line and got most of her news from listening in on everyone’s phone conversations.
I think the modern rotary model and even private lines came after I went to college…and we were located only 15 miles from the state Capitol.

Teagan

Forgot to mention how you “rang” a number on your party line…with a little handle on the side of the wall mounted wood phone that was about a foot tall. If you wanted to talk to some one outside your party line, you had to go through the telephone operator …one long ring. She would answer, “operator, can I help you?” and you gave her the number you wanted to call…24×4.
BTW, when I lived in the second largest city in Guatemala, phones were quite a luxury and there were probably fewer than 20 in non-commercial locations. You simply told the operator the name of the person you wanted to call.
Sounds like the Dark Ages, doesn’t it? But, in fact, until satellites that eventually brought cell phones into almost every location in the world the vast majority were without the ability to communicate.

Aubergine

I am only 55 and I remember this! My grandmother’s phone was a party line. I caught her listening in a few times! And I remember the identifying rings, too.

grandmaintexas

We had party lines when I was really young. Also, had the 20 foot cord on the princess cord, too, by the time we were teens. We used to lock ourselves in the bathroom for privacy. 😂

I tried to send:
I know you’re seeing things at CTH. You’ve got other fans at https://wqth.wordpress.com/ . Since General Flynn ditched that other firm that sold him down the river, we’ve all been praying, “C’mon, Sidney….”
And today, the skies opened and The Light shined down….
Now we know it isn’t over, and Sullivan may yet obstruct and delay…..but one does not simply stroll into the DC Circuit and get a Mandamus. The wind is from a fairer quarter now, and Justice is afield. You have accomplished a miraculous realignment, and it was clearly Divine Providence that linked you with Gen. Flynn.
Kick your feet up, have a cold one, give Thanks to the Above, receive the lauds of your adoring audience…..
But, when the time comes, rest not on your laurels until you’ve screwed every one of those rat bastards to the wall.
***********************************
But, when I hit “send”, nothing happened. I was not allowing javascript from Google (blocked), and it wanted to add information to a profile (also blocked). It may not have sent.

pgroup

Are you serious? You didn’t realize you need to enable javascript in order to access functions on a webpage?
Yet you play with Linux, and understand command-line inputs.
Those two things do not go together. You are pulling our leg.

cthulhu

I enabled javascript for Sidney’s page, because I trust her. I did not enable it for google tracking, because I do not trust them. Sidney could have used a contact template that did not transmit information to Google….and she may have — she may have the message…..but the “message sent” routine wouldn’t load because it requires Google spying to have occurred.
There are the things that happen…..and there is what you think you see. They are not necessarily the same thing.
Incidentally, if you see icons on a page for twitter, facebook, google+, or youtube, the page will be trying to mine data out of your browser to send to the usual suspects — and you can shut down scripts from those entities without changing the behavior of the page.

pgroup

I’ve read all your comments (above and below). I just KNEW that I could bait you into giving us a mini-seminar on computer basics that are buried inside of GUI-centered Winblows.
I apologize for my deception. I thank you for your info contribution to our ongoing education. 🙂

cthulhu

Yeah, sure….

cthulhu

The biggest change in mindset from other systems to Linux is that everything is accessible in Linux.
This is not such a shock for those of us who were around when MSDOS and CPM-86 were battling it out.
But it is antithetical to those presenting monolithic bloated OS with thousands of choices being made by people in Cupertino or Redmond. In Linux, you can drill down to the finest detail and change it — recompiling a kernel is something of a rite of passage (that I have not yet done).
Bad websites and bad emails are the major sources of malware infections. Very rarely does someone actually attack a random joe at an IP address and get anywhere (although known IP addys with known goodies [banks, govs, studios, netflix….] should be careful). This means you should be particularly careful with emails and websites.
My standard browser is Mozilla with some harsh plug-ins — including NoScript, whose developer I have corresponded with (super guy, BTW). The default setting for javascript is NO. I have corresponded with people whose websites have 20+ off-site javascript requests, and many of them are amazed.
This site requests to run javascript from wordpress.com, doubleclick.net, gravatar.com, twitter.com, wp.com, and youtube.com. I only allow youtube.com to see the previews — all the rest are unnecessary for my level of participation.

cthulhu

Mind you, I should make this as clear as possible. Wolf, your website (likely because of your theme) calls javascript at wordpress.com, doubleclick.net, gravatar.com, twitter.com, wp.com, and youtube.com .
Does any of this actually do you any good? Have you personally vetted all of them? Does gravatar do anything else besides creating funny pictures…..like maybe making it easier to track users of your site to other sites? Is there any part of linking twitter.com from your site that isn’t evil?

Last night at the airport, I saw a lot of people without them. I don’t wear one if it’s not required.
This is where the dumbing down of America came into play. If we had all taken better anatomy and physiology classes in school, we’d know that mask wearing is dangerous.

It seems like some businesses are posting “masks required” signs but not enforcing them very much. People are getting pretty low-key about them at my husband’s work, thankfully…

Renewed my NC CPA today. I did all the actual work back in November, but with Covid, the scrambling to pick things up and move them, and other emergencies, I was dreading the process. Renewing my CA CPA will be a much bigger deal in November. They want you to separate your CPE (Continuing Professional Education) into technical/non-technical, accounting/non-accounting (much of CPE is tax, which is not accounting, because tax law changes more rapidly than accounting principles), and break it into time periods. Then you have to have certain emphases in fraud and ethics, which can be part of previously logged courses.
Only when you can solve the requisite differential equations can you successfully renew your CA CPA. Mind you, everything can be solved if you just shove more money and time at it…..

“Not on my watch!”
This is what Governor Kristi Noem said on Fox & Friends, Wednesday morning, when asked about the threats from the DNC’s violent street thugs to destroy Mt. Rushmore.
She said that she had put a sizeable security force in place at Mt. Rushmore and was coordinating with federal resources as well.
When asked for details…she said she would not give out “specifics”.
Heheh.
This clip is from later in that segment:

@govkristinoem
The men on Mt. Rushmore helped make America the greatest country in history. They weren’t perfect; nobody is. But we should learn from their example and work together to accomplish their dreams for our country.

gil00

Theres a crao ton of anti Trump articles within the past few hours in re to the 4th. Every single one mentions “faces of conquerors ” from Native Americans. Well we know that SOME are paid agitators and communists. I wouldnt be surprised if they along with blm/antifa coordinate during POTUS’ visit.

wheatietoo

Yep. They are probably planning something big for the 3rd and 4th…at both Mt. Rushmore and in DC.
😠🤬
They have taken ‘bird-dogging’ to an extreme level — agitating and provoking on a national scale.
They *want* to get video of people & police fighting back…so that they can play the victim.
Thing is…they have taken it too far!
Most people are sick of them and sick of their violence.
So I think at this point, if there is a big crack down on these Antifa/BLM operatives…the majority of the public will just go:
“Serves them right, they deserve it.”

Gail Combs

Look at the number of people cheering the drivers who, when threaten and physically accosted, get the heck out of Dodge whether it means hitting a rioter or not.
The Patriots attack of course should be AGAINST the Demon-Rat office holders. Unfortnately, just like the Tea Party Rallies the Media will NEVER cover it…. UNLESS there is violence that can be pinned on the Patriots.

“She was fine with EVERYTHING as it was before Trump.
Ponder THAT….

.
So what about the border wall?
I’ll tell you something Ann doesn’t know.
When Trump declared a national emergency on the southern border, guess what happened?
A whole BUNCHA stuff!
Certain provisions regulating withdrawal, reservation, restriction, and utilization of public lands by or for the Department of Defense for defense purposes do not apply.
Legal provisions intended to protect farmland do not apply to the acquisition or use of farmland for national defense purposes.
AND.
Secretary of Defense, without regard to any other provision of law, may undertake military construction projects, and may authorize Secretaries of the military departments to undertake military construction projects, that are necessary to support such use of the armed forces.
We’ve got US military all along the southern border.
Trump has EVERYONE–especially the Judy Garland of politics–staring fixedly at one point.
We’re replacing ineffective fencing with the new design.
We have NO IDEA WHATSOEVER where other construction is being carried out.
Except we DO.
Red = NEW border wall
Look at the legend at the bottom. Looks like about 500 miles of NEW wall.
Not 3 miles, Ann.
This isn’t a state secret.”

Every Monday – Rodney Scott, Border Patrol Chief reports on the Border Wall System miles completed.
Here is the latest report:

Gail Combs

As Carlos said all you have to do is LOOK.
The international border between Mexico and the United States is 3,201 kilometres (1,989 miles) in length.
“Across most of the country, Trump’s promise of a border wall remains a distant concept, an abstraction that would be built in distant lands. But in Texas’ 23rd congressional district, it’s personal. The district spans one-third of the length of the entire U.S. border—an area so large that it straddles two tectonic plates.” (That would be about 600 miles)
I think this is a part of the border they are not planing on building the wall.comment image

13 January 2020, two days later: UN health agency urges China to continue search for source of new virus, as Thailand case emerges
21 January 2020

Following an announcement by China’s national health body that a new virus first identified there, can be transmitted from person to person, the World Health Organization (WHO) is to hold a meeting on Wednesday to decide if it should be declared a global health emergency.

In a message released on social media, WHO said that the agency’s Director-General, Tedros Ghebreyesus, will “convene an Emergency Committee on the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) under the International Health Regulations”, with the aim of ascertaining “whether the outbreak constitutes a public health emergency of international concern, and what recommendations should be made to manage it”.

Beware the psy-ops. The question is will the entrepreneurs try again?

Gail Combs

You have to beware of LYING with statistics. Around 80% of new small businesses shut within the first five years but only 10% shut due to bankruptcy The rest of the people find it is TOO MUCH WORK for a rather small $$$ return especially with all the required government paperwork.
…..
From my old notes:
Bank loans???
For some unknown reason the Liberals seem to think the Bankers are Capitalists. They are not, they HATE Capitalism and have killed it in the USA. Capitalism is taking and investing REAL wealth (the result of your labor) to increase productivity – make MORE products and services. Bankers lend fiat fairy dust debt and siphon the real wealth of a country into their pockets – BIG DIFFERENCE
A bank WILL NOT lend their fiat money to a small business or a small business person. We are considered a bad risk. Banks will only lend money if the US government forces them to and that is only for minorities. Given the money is counterfeited by the banks in the first place you would think they would lend it to anyone even a three year old! (American Express offered a credit card to a 3-year-old)
To add insult to injury, I was talking to a customer who is a stonemason, carpenter, licensed surveyor, and licensed contractor. This guy has run his own SUCCESSFUL business for 25 years and the bank wanted his grown SON to cosign his MORTGAGE! He built his house without a penny from a bank. It is absolutely beautiful too. (DROOOOoooool)
—————————————————
Despite these hassles about 52% of the jobs here in the USA are provided by small business – 52.6 million according to the department of state. 99% of the independent enterprises have fewer than 500 employees.
Here are the number employed by size:
19.6 million – fewer than 20 workers
18.4 million- 20 to 99 workers,
14.6 million – 100 to 499 workers
52.6 million in total
47.7 million – 500 or more employees.
Small businesses provided three-fourths of the new jobs between 1990 and 1995. Create more than 1/2 of the GDP (especially if you include farmers) Hire 40% of the high tech crowd. They are 97% of the exporters and produced 28.6% of the export value in 2004. Small business has 13 times as many patents per employee and those patents are twice as likely to be among the 1% most cited!
However 80% of small businesses fail. WHY? Because they bankrupted? NO only 10% close because of bankruptcy, for many it is because the hassle is just not worth it. When you put in so many hours filling out paperwork, that you are earning $1.00 an hour if you are lucky, you might as well get a job flipping burgers at minimum wage.
What are the laws and regulations you have to obey and look out for when you start your business? If you blow it you could have to deal with 4 million dollar fines like the Dollarites did. USDA fines family four million dollars for selling bunny rabbits
When I started my business in MA, I sent off a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) about a bunch of laws in 1991. I am STILL waiting for Massachusetts to send me the information.
When I said the heck with it and started my business anyway, I had a government official on my door step at least once a month snooping around to see if he could figure out how he could extract more money from me or fine me. I got sick of the blasted harassment gave up and moved out of state.

EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ — The three members of the same family who were found dead in an East Brunswick pool on Monday did not know how to swim, the Middlesex County Prosecutor announced Wednesday.
There is no evidence that electrical issues with the above-ground pool caused their deaths, despite previous speculation that may have been the case, said acting county prosecutor Chris Kuberiet and East Brunswick Police Chief Frank LoSacco.
Instead, officials believe the deceased did not know how to swim.
Bharat Patel, 62, his 33-year old daughter-in-law, Nisha Patel, and her 8-year-old daughter, unnamed, all died in the pool shortly after 4 p.m. Monday, one of the first sweltering hot days of the summer.

Gessh!!! Is it legal to take him out? Not here – have to call animal control to remove menace – heavy fine for killing them here.

it’s against the law in PA to shoot a porcupine, but when they were destroying our stairs and decking I contacted the game warden to see if they could set traps. he told me to lead ball them—when something is being that destructive to your home, you are allowed apparently. our son-in-law, the farmer, said the same thing about his crop destruction.
but around here, no one would flinch… we are not hunting them, we are protecting our home.

duchess01

True – good that you checked, first. You just have to remember where you set the traps – so you do not step into one – guess you have no choice – getting ridiculous.

I had a retriever mix gentel as anything until one day, some workers came up the garden steps from the street they had been at my house several times before but that day I was not outside and Max would not let them open the garden gate to come into the garden. They were surprised because they fussed with him before and made friends with him they thought. Max was specially protective when I was alone. He was almost 15 when he died. He was my companion in NY , St Louise and Chicago and lived his last years in OH.

The elites are like a soul-less drug pusher, doling out little bits of “candy” to hook people and make them dependent on them. It doesn’t need to be drugs: it can be benefits, guaranteed income (look at Sweden and the nordic countries), free things (like Bernie’s plans), etc.

The deep state put her there to kill off the HP Way, which was a shining light for the valley, and replaced it with the stupid and insulting “Invent” at the bottom of the company logo/signage. Of course, to make room, she changed Hewlett-Packard to HP, removing the founders’ names.

An “interesting” speech from Carly is here: http://www.christianheadlines.com/columnists/guest-commentary/carly-fiorina-s-decades-long-mystical-magical-carpet-ride-to-nowhere.html
And an article floating around the web in 2001 when we HP’lers were facing MASSIVE layoffs at a company which had NEVER had them before seems to have caught the spirit of things (although the original has disappeared from the interwebs):
[begin excerpt]
HP TO CUT WORKFORCE 120 PERCENT
Palo Alto, CA (SatireWire.com) — HP will reduce its workforce by an unprecedented 120 percent by the end of 2001, believed to be the first time a major corporation has laid off more employees than it actually has.
HP stock soared more than 12 points on the news.
The reduction decision, announced Wednesday, came after a year-long internal review of cost-cutting procedures, said HP CEO Carly Fiorina. The initial report concluded the company would save $1.2 billion by eliminating 20 percent of its 108,000 employees.
From there, said Fiorina, “it didn’t take a genius to figure out that if we cut 40 percent of our workforce, we’d save $2.4 billion, and if we cut 100 percent of our workforce, we’d save $6 billion. But then we thought, why stop there? Let’s cut another 20 percent and save $7 billion.
“We believe in increasing shareholder value, and we believe that by decreasing expenditures, we enhance our competitive cost position and our bottom line,” she added.
HP plans to achieve the 100 percent internal reduction through layoffs, attrition and early retirement packages. To achieve the 20 percent in external reductions, the company plans to involuntarily downsize 22,000 non-HP employees who presently work for other companies.
“We pretty much picked them out of a hat,” said Fiorina.
Among firms HP has picked as “External Reduction Targets,” or ERTs, are Quaker Oats, AMR Corporation, parent of American Airlines, Callaway Golf, and Charles Schwab & Co. HP’s plan presents a “win-win” for the company and ERTs, said Fiorina, as any savings by ERTs would be passed on to HP, while the ERTs themselves would benefit by the increase in stock price that usually accompanies personnel cutback announcements.
“We’re also hoping that since, over the years, we’ve been really helpful to a lot of companies, they’ll do this for us kind of as a favor,” said Fiorina.
Legally, pink slips sent out by HP would have no standing at ERTs unless those companies agreed. While executives at ERTs declined to comment, employees at those companies said they were not inclined to cooperate.
“This is ridiculous. I don’t work for HP. They can’t fire me,” said Kaili Blackburn, a flight attendant with American Airlines.
Reactions like that, replied Fiorina, “are not very sporting.”
Inspiration for HP’s plan came from previous cutback initiatives, said company officials. In January of 1998, for instance, the company announced it would trim 18,000 jobs over two years. However, just a year later, HP said it had already reached its quota. “We were quite surprised at the number of employees willing to leave HP in such a hurry, and we decided to build on that,” Fiorina said.
Analysts credited Fiorina’s short-term vision, noting that the announcement had the desired effect of immediately increasing HP share value. However, the long-term ramifications could be detrimental, said Bear Stearns analyst Beldon McInty.
“It’s a little early to tell, but by eliminating all its employees, HP may jeopardize its market position and could, at least theoretically, cease to exist,” said McInty.
Fiorina, however, urged patience: “To my knowledge, this hasn’t been done before, so let’s just wait and see what happens.”

My overall take: If the Court doesn’t issue the mandamus (& I think it won’t), it’s because they don’t want to uphold Fokker now since they’d have to tell a judicial colleague that he’s too far afield, but they are prepared to use Fokker later to reverse him. That is wrong.

They were bold enough to apply Fokker now rather than simply signal to Judge Sullivan that they thought he should apply it and then wait to see if he would. That takes backbone and principle, and I applaud them. /2

What they should do is grant the mandamus & tell Judge Sullivan to grant leave to dismiss. DOJ is right that any inquiry by Sullivan into DOJ’s decision making violates the separation of powers. Based on today’s argument, I think the chances of that are close to zero, however.

Those aircraft in the sky Mil Monkey continues to show us… they’re looking for Club Ks (enemy combatant missile sites)… he can’t PROVE it of course.
Actually there is very little our PATRIOTs can PROVE for those who NEED it before opening their minds and eyes.
Peruse Mil Monkey’s website… ‘course you have the choice, as Q reminds us, to KNOW what you want to know.

Webb was deplatformed, Eh? Well, that’s a bummer. I was working my way through one he did on a conference re viruses in 1946. It confirmed Dr. Judy Mikovitz’s work, and bolstered her conclusions re mouse viruses.
With him gone…wow. He must have been right about just about all of it including the Strzoks, and Buttigieges. Club K’s I picked up from the Bards of War, but that made all the sense in the world given that Trump went along with the lockdown. Soft targets were minimized that way.

Aubergine

The transcription of the Strozk notes certain people are promoting is wrong.
The second line reads: “lean forward or useless.”
“Lean forward” appears to be pet terminology with the FIB (emphasis added):
“Westfall’s own career journey helped to open students’ eyes to the vast array of employment opportunities. She also connected her immense industry knowledge and made it relatable which included expanding career and educational endeavors, beginning with earning an Associate Degree, then a Bachelor Degree in Computer Information Systems and eventually an MBA. These personal experiences served as an example of how her willingness to work hard and lean forward beyond her comfort zone paid off.”
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) – West Ada School District (PDF)
Another:
“Wray didn’t respond directly, however.
“I think we’ve tried very, very hard to be transparent and cooperative with all the relevant congressional committees,” Wray said. “We produced all sorts of information and tried to really lean forward.”
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/wray-reveals-fbi-looking-carefully-at-foreign-interference-in-protests-following-george-floyds-death
THIS ONE is actually in a speech by ROBERT MUELLER!
“Though the risk factors are very different, football players show that same kind of courage. Much like Marines, football players run toward the inevitable confrontation. They lean forward, ready to take the hit.”
https://archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/speeches/the-role-of-a-coach
I’m sure this is correct. I think it means that the “Flynn cuts” are useless unless they are pursued beyond what they actually merited. That’s my interpretation using the above quotes.

michaelh

Exactly right.
The phrase “lean into” is used a LOT in business. You also heard it a lot from the Gov Bureaucrats during the CV briefings.
I’ve never liked that phrase much at all.
I prefer “Take Action” or “Act Now” but marketing types have so abused those terms that they really hollowed out.
Amazon’s “Bias for Action” is similarly snarled in leftist double-talk.
Military doctrine says “Seize the Initiative”. Troops say “Run to the fight”. I think those are better ways of saying the same thing.
But in terms of Strzok the simplest explanation is exactly that:
I think it means that the “Flynn cuts” are useless unless they are pursued beyond what they actually merited. That’s my interpretation using the above quotes.
It also suggests to me an intent to weaponize his own words against him.
The devil is the accuser of the bretheren.

para59r

The term Lean Forward has been in military jargon for at least some thirty years meaning as you say to anticipate an order and be ready to act.
As an example using Bengazi leaning all the way forward would be to put troops, locked and loaded in transport planes and be circling around Libyan airspace while waiting the Go order to violate the border which could only come from the President or his authorized rep. (Should of happened)
If applied to the Flynn situation it would of meant do permissible back ground checks and maybe ask the questions but then it should of stopped right there. They clearly continued on and violated every rule in the book as far as depriving Flynn of his rights, not recognizing his new status as National Security Adviser, followed by inserting spies and the whole FISA rigmarole. None of that is leaning forward, instead it crossed the line into sedition and treason.
Using the term lean forward is just trying to blur the line from what was permissible to what was clearly illegal and it won’t work.

Aubergine

From your description, it sounds like they were “leaning forward” waiting for a “go order.” Gathering additional information to make the cuts (which they acquired using other countries intel) USEFUL. They then got the “go,” at some point. My bet is the go came, tacitly or directly, in the form of the leak to David Ignatius before January 12 (when the article was publish). This happens to be the same day Joe Biden requested to unmask Flynn.
Wanna bet Ignatius gave Biden a call and asked for info that Joe needed the unmasking to confirm?

Aubergine

Amen!

Thats so wrong. Salinas is over run with illegals and gangs. They ended allowing Live PD to film there bc the illegals and their activists didnt want to be shown on tv, and the city basically wants to hide its crime. This falks in line with the thinking.

They’ve tried it in more than one location. One of the dioceses in Illinois, I forget which one, the bishop ws out of town and the city council voted to seize the property where the cathedral stands via eminent domain and demolish it. It’s been a few years since that stunt, but, still.

duchess, A Victor David Hanson essay which someone upthread already linked,
https://americangreatness.com/2020/06/21/what-happens-when-the-madness-ends/
applies his valuable historical perspective to how these movements have unwound.
While not wishing to disagree with such an august opinion, I am having difficulty believing/accepting that the current turmoil is capable of being interpreted as an historical norm.
I most certainly hope VDH is correct of course, but when I hear response to the sort of actions such as these in CA, words such as “nonsense” and “ridiculous” carry no weight.
I am NOT here commenting on our responses here on this site…I am simply wondering where the line in the sand may be.
It does seem to me, that this CA church story, together with the news coming from the muslim quarter in Minnesota, requires some clarity as to Federal Law/ Actions vs State’s Law/actions.
These actions are happening in Real Time, and if they are not attended to in Real Time, it’s difficult for me to envision a loss of momentum on the part of these criminals.

Yes Piper I have been asking the same on all of it. My gen x cynicism and personal nature have led me to think 2 things. Either there is no cohesion and Patriotic control, whether you believe Q or not, OR 2. Due mostly to the disengaged masses who focused on bread and circus ignorance instead of informed truthful education, the threshold for intervention has become extremely high. So high they have to allow death, mayhem and madness in order for The Great Awakening.

Thanks for your kind words. That Double Bass (from the cued-up spot) had the same imperious attitude that the Ø showed in Garrison’s cartoon. The Musica-Lulu “Fantasia” portion of the cartoon/movie (sort of a dream sequence) is something the likes of which probably couldn’t be done today. All the little tricks (cork in the clarinet, Lulu lifting her skirt a bit to sway the jury “whoa whoa”, the rolling snare drum turning into cymbals… really creative. And I think that’s one of the catchiest tunes out there (“Gotta Have Music”, OK, maybe it’s because I’m a musician…) though the artwork might be *cough* offensive… can’t have all that “BLACK” ink now…
If only they knew how in the very old days, ink was scarce, expensive, and hard to come by for composers… but then, history is unplowed ground for the left… just like real farms… they think milk, eggs, meat (OH; NOES!) and veggies come from factories…

Cuppa Covfefe

It’s not Univerities or Colleges (Oakland has neither, except a couple of junior two-year colleges), it’s the normal school district – K-12.
And they’ve had violence there basically forever. I had an audition there more than 50 (yes, fifty) years ago for a youth symphony, and the weekend before there’d been a murder on the high school grounds. I was concerned (as were my parents) but the conductor told me that there would be heightened security (read: police presence).
Oakland, sad to say, has been a pit since the days of the Knowland family. Full of dependent plantation-inhabitants wanting ever more freebies, their rush to quota-based hiring has produced nothing but failure in what little is left of their industrial tax base, and driven out their only hope of recovery. All of the major factories (canneries, glass factories, light and heavy manufacturing: GONE). As the saying goes, “there’s no THERE there”…..
I worked summers in a glass factory there, and, due to quotas, they were forced to hire something like 60% POC (people of color). Only thing was, they COULDN’T FIND 60% POC who were qualified and actually WANTED to work there (as it was hard and often skilled work). So they actually had to recruit outside of the area to get the “employee profile” that they needed.
Add to that the CITY TAX (on top of the obscene CA State tax), and the ever-increasing EPA/CARB idiotic anti-business regulations, and the die was cast for O-I to leave Oakland. The Tracy plant, from 1962 IIRC, is still going full-bore. But, thanks to &O;slash; a HUGE amount of bottle, plastics, and closures (not to mention corrugated) manufacturing went to MEXICO as part of a sweetheart deal, i.e. “Close Plant 20, and we’ll let you buy the Mexican glass plants here, and get cheap labor and materials”…

Judge’s move opens door to appeal of decision ordering dismissal of Flynn case
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jun/24/judge-emmett-sullivan-may-appeal-michael-flynn-dis/
“U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan issued a one-page order hours after a federal appeals court ordered him to dismiss the case saying he overstepped his authority by keeping it alive.
The move buys Judge Sullivan some time while he decides whether to appeal the 2-1 decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Judge Sullivan could appeal the case to the en banc appellate court or the U.S. Supreme Court.
“It is also possible one of the appellate court judges could request en banc hearing even if Judge Sullivan doesn’t.”

LM

Wasn’t she also a failed (but wealthy nonetheless) CEO?
How does that work, anyway?
Excerpt from:
https://time.com/3845767/carly-fiorina-hp/
When she was finally ousted, the board insisted that it wasn’t because of corporate results, but because of her “management style.” Fiorina, who was often described as imperious and distant, took a lot of criticism for giving herself big bonuses even while laying people off, and for hitting the speaking circuit even while the company was in a tailspin.
What else would she do for a dollar?

duchess01

Uh, is this a trick question, LM? /s

Cuppa Covfefe

Not even worth a dollar…
Carly HAD NO CLUE about anything to do with engineering, R&D, and product development, the lifeblood of a company like HP. On top of that, she insulted the engineers and labbies by sticking “Invent” at the bottom of the corporate logo/signage, while removing Bill and Dave’s names from the same; Hewlett-Packard became HP. Now, all it is is an indescript green rectangle. Bill and Dave must be rolling in their graves…
Remember, of course, while at Lucent (like lucifer) (formerly Bell Labs), she came up with their new logo; a Satanic red Ouroboros, the proverbial snake eating its tail… sort of like that song “down, down, down into that burning ring of fire”… She left Lucent in disarray, as well… marketing dweeb; all show, no go…
And not a word about a Carleton Sneed being at a(n) SF org’s LRH “event”…

Deplorable Patriot

Wait – Carly was at Lucent? More importantly, Bell Labs?
That explains a lot.

Cuppa Covfefe

Yep. Another spot for which she was spectacularly unqualified. Ty-D-Bowl touch, one might say.
She is a FOUL person. What she said about and did to Walter Hewlett was unconscionable. Yes, he’s an academic and a great musician (founding member of the HP Symphony (!)), but he knows computing, engineering, finance, management, and, most of all, the HP Way. I’ll avoid any doxworthy comments, but he’s a far better person than she is…
You might find this interesting (there are MANY more articles about her and Lucent):

Bell Labs was downtown. They had cell phone technology underway in the 1940s. If she F—– with that – pure commercial R&D of technology – she should be strung up. Commercial R&D, as opposed to academic which DESTROYED R&D IMO, is what gave us a world-wide advantage, technologically speaking.

Cuppa Covfefe

There are articles out there detailing how she wanted to shake up “the old way”, just like she did at HP. She didn’t have half a clue, let alone a full clue, despite her degrees… It makes me angry just reading about her; what she did to HP was criminal…
And I imagine Bell Labs was the same. I had classmates whose parents and other relatives worked there. Great place, lots of innovation, and creativity was rewarded. Not the sort of thing Carly rewards…

cthulhu

The thing about Carly was that she was supposed to be a Marketing Genius that could overrule the BoD, the tech guys, the business guys, and Ops and make fountains of money from air. And everywhere she worked her magic, the the quality of the product got trashed and so did the company’s reputation — while everyone who knew anything bailed-out to other companies.
HP used to build stuff that would work after being run over by a truck. And if it didn’t, they had truly dedicated customer service people that would make sure it did. One time, I bought an HP printer after I saw an ad that it had “speedy ethernet”. When I got it and set it up, it had 10-baseT…..when “speedy” was generally 100-baseT. I wrote to customer service with a copy of the ad and said I was disappointed — and they shipped me a 100-baseT card. I asked about returning the 10-baseT and they basically said, “no thanks, we’re too busy bludgeoning the ad staff. Just keep it.”
That was the company Carly had handed to her. By the time she was through with it, Dell had better tech support.

Cuppa Covfefe

HP used to send labbies out to customer sites, either with CEs or even as sales support, so that they would get a feel of what the customers wanted, how they used the products (sometimes in very creative ways), and what the various gripes/compliments were. That was sort of a parallel to MBWA (Management By Wandering/Waliking Around, which became “Management By Walking Away” in the Carly Era).
When Loma Prieta hit, at one of the data centers (probably at Corporate IIRC) there were HP3000s running, complete with the older (and larger) disk drives (7937 Eagles, maybe the 7933 and 7935 “washing machines” as well). Some hardware physically fell over (CPU cabinets), but most of the 3000s kept running. Those which encountered power failures recovered on power recovery with the MPE powerfail routine, not skipping a beat.
One place I worked outside of HP had a 7933 in an office environment; usually a major no-no and a support issue, but since it was a lab environment, the air was chilled and the power cleaned and conditioned…
Rugged equipment indeed. And, back in the day, a great place to work… “In Search of Excellence” has a lot of infos on how it used to be; also “Built to Last”…

“The Supreme Court ruled Thursday for the Trump administration in a key immigration case, determining that a federal law limiting an asylum applicant’s ability to appeal a determination that he lacked a credible fear of persecution from his home country does not violate the Constitution.
“The ruling means the administration can deport some people seeking asylum without allowing them to make their case to a federal judge. The 7-2 ruling applies to those who fail their initial asylum screenings, making them eligible for quick deportation.”

No, it’s not “time” to replace the national anthem. This rears its head every couple of years or so. *They* don’t get to redefine this country or wipe out our history and write a new one.

duchess01

No – Not on our watch, Truths!!!

Deplorable Patriot

If there is any complaint about the National Anthem it should be on the singability of it. The tune is a tavern song with a range many can’t sing, and Mr. Key’s phrasing is long for those without good breath control. BUT, there’s NOTHING wrong with the poetry or the sentiments expressed in the singing.
The text tells of a big victory in winning freedom from a country that had been kicked out and wanted what they lost in war back.
They can’t have it. And neither can the people who are trying to shame hundreds of millions of people into being unpatriotic have their way just because they pitch a fit.

Kiddo had his titers done last week and his Pneumococcal titer results are not protective. His allergist says he should get a booster. There are 2 types of vaccine itself Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine is likely what he received as a baby but I dont see a specific booster for each type.
Do you know of any more recent concerns for the vaccine? Thx.

Gail Combs

Know Gil I do not. All I can tell you is to do your research.
HOWEVER testing is NOT 100% accurate. I would wait awhile and then have a second test done, preferably by a different lab before I would get him a second jab.

Gail Combs

I am saying this as someone who has run labs for years. If I recall several years ago Readers Digest had a story on the problem of inaccurate lab results.
Here are two more recent articles:
How Accurate Are Your Medical Test Results?
https://www.verywellhealth.com/how-accurate-are-your-medical-test-results-2615480
Study Reveals Variation in Accuracy of Laboratory Blood Testing Results
https://www.infectiousdiseaseadvisor.com/home/topics/practice-management/study-reveals-variation-in-accuracy-of-laboratory-blood-testing-results/

Researchers from Mount Sinai Hospital compared basic blood tests run by commercial laboratories and found that testing time and service significantly influenced the results of the test.
In their study, the researchers analyzed results from comparable blood tests from 60 healthy adults conducted at LabCorp, Quest Diagnostics, and Theranos. They collected multiple samples from the same individuals at an ambulatory clinic and at retail outlets with point-of-care services in Phoenix, Arizona. The analysis was controlled for age, sex, and time of blood collection.
“While most of the variability we found was within clinically accepted ranges, there were several cases where inaccurate results would have led to incorrect medical decisions,” senior author Joel Dudley, director of Biomedical Informatics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai noted in a prepared statement about the study.
“We hope this study will inspire the biomedical community to take a critical look at all testing variables to ensure that lab results are as robust and reproducible as possible.”

Teagan

The problem, of course, is $$$ and the fact insurance will only pay for so many tests within a time frame. Of course, you can always self-pay which I recently did for ($88) for a somewhat esoteric blood test that is not covered.

Politeness, foul language, “tolerance,” and political correctness. Means of controlling others while weaponizing speech.
Politeness is one of the good manners we inherited from the Victorians, which elevated the use of reason over emotional discourse, and the notion of chivalrous manhood and being a proper gentleman who is well mannered and self-controlled (self-governed).
However, politeness can also be a form of speech control, and it can be manipulated both ways.
For example, if you are a person whose inner life is peaceful, then being polite with others is easy and normal to do.
However, if you are a person with an inner life that is angry and full of rage, then being polite is much harder. Politeness is a form of interpersonal political theater, a show, a way to manipulate others. Or, a way of being controlled, not being allowed to say what you need to say.
In short, being polite can be seen as lying – putting a mask or cover on.
With that in mind, when someone is polite to you, perception can be that the person being polite is inauthentic, uptight, or not telling the truth.
Does that make sense?
Let’s expand a bit.
Neo-Marxism works by manipulating vulnerable people by exploiting (pandering to) their vices, specifically anger, resentment (“rub raw their resentments”) and envy.
Class, wealth, race, gender, sexual orientation, etc.
Race is the hot topic right now.
Consider a young man, lacking maturity and responsibility. Is his soul one that is satisfied and at peace? Or is it one of discontent and anger?
In many cases, though not all, it is the latter. Enough so that many in his peer group are targeted for Marxist indoctrination and recruitment. YES, RECRUITMENT.
When this young man talks with his peers, he can be unguarded, unfiltered. He can let loose with his language, and “tell it how it is”. He doesn’t put a mask on and he lets what he thinks (stupid though it may be) hang out and doesn’t make any attempt at being gentlemanly or inoffensive.
If he does have to be polite, he knows he has to put on an act to please others. AN ACT.
If someone is polite to him, and does not mirror (mimic) his tones, language, and behavior … in other words if they are behaving in a civilized manner compared to the boorish and uncouth manners of the immature youth … he perceives them to be fakes and phonies. “They’re full of shit”. Even lying.
He has come to recognize politeness as a game of manipulation.
Is he wrong? I would argue that he may not be wrong. Depending on his background, he may have had too many hostile experiences with people in authority who, well, were not exactly on the up and up. He’s been trained by experience to be distrustful of people who wear suits or dress well, who talk a certain way. They are seen as condescending snobs, elites, etc.
That person in authority could well have been a leftist themselves, intent on planting division and outrage in that young man’s heart.
The effect is that the left manipulates and controls language again. Heads I win, tails you lose. Free speech for me but not for thee.
If you aren’t polite, or politically correct, they will shut you down as being improper. They suddenly become the “tone police” that they rail about incessantly.
If you are polite, then you are being fake and phony. Inauthentic. Maybe even lying.
* Marxists need people who do not live in peace. They need people who are ungrateful or have been coached into being ungratefulness through envy. People who live in peace cannot be used by Marxists.
* Marxists will do anything they can to break down discourse. They only want their ideas aired and cannot abide criticism. They are inconsistent in principles because they have a totally different principle of ideological total war.
* Marxists will use crazy-making and gaslighting techniques without hesitation and without abandon to achieve their objectives. They will curse up a storm and be loud and obnoxious, but then suddenly turn into prudish scolds if you dare use a single foul word against them. The double standard is blatant and hypocritical but can be boiled down to a simple maxim that any child who has dealt with a playground bully can understand: I win, you lose.
* Crazy-making is a feature. If they can make you lose your mind, MAKE YOU LOSE YOUR PEACE, then they can win. They cannot have people with peaceful souls in the revolution. They literally are happy to make you insane and to lose your God-given capacity for logical, rational thought. They will do anything they can to goad you into an emotional mindset. Once they do that, you are easy to manipulate. They are masters at emotional manipulation, even of their enemies.

What then shall we do with all that information you gave us? No, I’m not denigrating; just asking why you gave no instruction to P E A C E, if that is the prophylactic?

Gail Combs

MANNERS are the oil that greases the wheels of civilization.

COURTESY IS SOCIETY’S GREASE
….Civility is a necessary part of the foundation of any successful civilized society. In socially advanced societies, this civility is extended not only to those within our peer group, but also to the occupants of the greater social fabric, whatever their station in life. Manners grease the wheels of society, making it easier for all members of that society to live in harmony with one another.
In societies in which the individual is seen as more important than the group, or the group as more important than the individual, this harmony may become discordant. When either group or individual become subservient to one or the other, our humanity may well be lost since we lose the ability to see others as our equals.

“When we spend a disproportionate amount of time angry at one another or hostile instead of gracious, society begins to fracture and break down.”

https://www.thegentlemensbrotherhood.com/manners/courtesy-is-societys-grease/

This is why the Marxists targeted manners back in the 1960s and 70s.

Teagan

Agree 100% and when I see these young adult white girls screaming foul obscenities in the faces of the DC police it makes me literally sick to my stomach. Where were their parents to teach them civility when they were growing up? I now live in the South and I love the kids are taught to say “yes, mam” and being referred to as Miss ——-.
Perhaps it’s one reason I’m so fond of Japan where you are still greeted with a small bow and once you reach a certain age, your name always has a verbal sign of respect added. Example…Hiroko-San or Patricia-San. If someone hands you a cup,of tea, you accept it with a slight bow….civility!

piper567

Brave, I’m a bit concerned ab the latest lies re the dreaded second wave…
I’m in WA, where our commie Gov says as of tomorrow, we must wear masks when we’re out and about.
Just last week, I was encouraged by far less than 25% of encountered people in stores/businesses wearing masks, and since my church opened on May 31 (w/o “permission”), only some of our oldsters were wearing masks.
I just got back from my local Walgreens, and nearly Everyone wore masks, customers and Staff alike!
No signs yet ab masks, just print and broadcast reminders to distance.
I am going to be really alarmed if just ab the time people had become rational, we once again become compliant with such irrational edicts.
Went to the Dentist yesterday, and they are being required to do screening, wear masks (me, too, until I was in a room w/Staff) and face shields, document entries and exits, and are limited to the # of patients who may be seen at any one time.
I’m with you…SO ready for this hoax to END!

“The Posse Comitatus Act, 18 U.S. Code, Section 1385, an original intent of which was to end the use of federal troops [TO POLICE STATE ELECTIONS] in former Confederate states, proscribes the role of the Army and Air Force in executing civil laws and states.”

There may have been some means of spying on President Trump in the Oval Office – by SIGINT (signal electronic intelligence) and/or HUMINT (human intelligence, leaks).
Remember the phone conversation with the foreign leader that leaked?
Remember when the Secret Service advised Trump to have renovations made to the Oval Office for security purposes? That was when Øbama’s wallpaper was removed and new wallpaper was put up. Bet they took the walls back down to the wooden plaster lathes.
Obama’s Illegal warrantless surveillance was not limited to the Trump campaign, or the press, or congress.
There was a dramatic rise in warrantless surveillance during the O years – so much that it alarmed even the leftist ACLU:comment image

This is a critical article to read.

EXCERPTS FROM THE ARTICLE:
A] retrograde is a deplorable 2.0,” Gordon explained, “And it’s an intellectual who understands Western Civilization, [and its] key figures like Aristotle and Saint Thomas Aquinas and Suarez and Bellarmine. They like to fight, and they’re willing to take their principles to the mat. They hate the tepid conservatism that came to really characterize conservatism in the early 21st century.”
Gordon continued, “The first [rule] is just always be on offense. Chess masters know it. Military generals know it. Defensive coordinators in football know it. You always need to to be on offense. Defense doesn’t win championships.”
“Cowardly conservatives” operate on defense, Gordon stated. “You can’t really throw a strong punch from your back foot. You need to counterpunch, and you need to counterpunch with all your weight behind it. The only way to to win a football game is to get the ball, maintain possession some of the time, and actually score points. It doesn’t matter how good your defense is. You need to be on offense.”
Never negotiate with the radical left, because they’re always on offense,” added Gordon, “They’re excellent at these rules. Circle the wagons around other conservatives the way leftists circle the wagons [around other leftists]. Never ever give up a conservative or a retrograde. Never forfeit or apologize on their behalf. Defend their jobs. Defend their livelihoods. Defend their ways of life.”
Humor is indispensable as a tool of political persuasion, explained Gordon.
“Effective, punchy, time-efficient jokes out of the mouth of a great rhetorician on the right-wing are incredibly effective,” Gordon said. “They’re effective tenfold — or maybe a hundred-fold — compared against a Socrates walking around using logic to prove what we already know are right-wing truisms [and] propositional axioms about Western Civilization.”
Gordon went on, “If you can sit there and make jokes against these jokers on the left, then you can be very, very effective. That’s why Trump was so effective in 2016, and yes, that’s why they’re extra-aggressive, counter-aggressive against jokes, especially funny jokes and punchy punchlines on Twitter.”
“If all of us return to making jokes and being sacrilegious against the sacrileges of the left, they can’t get us all at once,” Gordon added.

Here is the thing…
NO ONE is responding to that crap with the one-liner that decimates it and chops it off right at the knees.
The only reply needed to shut that shit down is:
.
“Just like in 2016, right? Hillary was a lock, remember? No way Trump could win. All the polls said so. LOL”
RIDICULE AND SARCASM ARE THE MOST POTENT WEAPONS.
We should be mocking and ridiculing these polls RELENTLESSLY.
Memes are so effective because the best one cause laughter, usually in the form of some mocking or ridiculing manner.
It KILLS me to see people try any OTHER tactic to counter these ridiculous “Biden leads Trump” polls instead of with the mocking, ridiculing references to 2016 that would effectively undermine the polling propaganda.

We’ve all probably seen this meltdown countless times…and undoubtedly she and all her friends and relatives have, as well. Sometimes I wonder what “space” she’s in now….did she completely go mental or was the embarrassment of being seen in such a negative manner create an awakening in her for the better.

scott467

I have sort of wondered the same thing occasionally, until I found this video today, it’s closer up than some of the others I have seen.
And I noticed that at about the 6 or 7 second mark, she looks up at the person holding the camera before she has her tantrum melt-down.
So as with all things Leftist, there is nothing organic, nothing natural, nothing unstaged or unscripted.
She was ‘performing’.
It’s always fake.
It’s always ‘political astroturf’.
No doubt she was ‘sincere’ in her anger, but she’s a con-artist, just like all Leftists are con-artists.

I had that same problem, Grandma, last year when I opened my account there.
Was on there yesterday and tried again.
Uploaded pic…but there was no ‘Save’ button underneath.
Then I noticed that there was a scroll bar at the side of the add-photo popup window.
So I scrolled down…way down…and there was the ‘Save’ button!
😀
Maybe that is what is happening to you too?
Of course I clicked the ‘Save’ button…and now I have my wheat picture for an avatar.
Did the same thing with the banner pic — and the ‘Save’ button was way down at the bottom too.
I hope you get a ‘Save’ button too, Grandma…I know how frustrating that can be.

I will try. I thought I had scrolled down as far as I could go, but maybe not.

“And now, a history lesson for the kids.”
__________
You’re going to have to explain what the word ‘dial’ means.
My Grandma had a phone like the red one in the video, except it was black, with a black cord that was made of cloth. When it rang, it was a real bell, and the ring had a natural ‘decay’ after each ring, as real bells do.
I miss that sound, it was a regular sound when I was a child, and then one day all the phones changed and that common sound was gone.
The face below the dial was black metal with either white or gold metallic numbers painted on it, and the dial itself was black metal.
When you dialed, it went “shhhhhhk….” and the “ch-ch-ch-ch-ch….” as it unwound… shhhhhhk…ch-ch-ch-ch-ch
She had other phones that were newer, but I liked the old one 😁

GA/FL

We had a 7 party line – only rich people had private lines back then. There was a certain ring for each one on the line. There were snoopy old ladies that ‘listened in’ on other people’s calls. There were grumpy people who complained when teenagers talked too long and hogged the line. People would pick up and say, I have to make or I am expecting an important call, so you would have to get off the phone if yours was just a social call. Our number was 630-W1.

scott467

I have seen phone numbers like that on antiques, for the company that manufactured the product 👍
I remember one from Chicago, it’s printed at the bottom front of the can, circa 1938:
http://www.ebeercans.com/images/large/OI-037.jpg

scott467

For Zoe, it’s a photo of an antique beer can, the brand name is ‘Ambrosia Lager Beer’.
At the bottom front of the can, under “Ambrosia Brewing Co., Chicago, ILL.” it says “PHONE – YARDS 2213”, which I think is the phone number.
I don’t know how it worked back then, just a guess, maybe you picked up the receiver and when the operator came on, you asked for the ‘yards’ (i.e., Chicago stockyards), number 2213.
The Ambrosia Brewing Co. was located on the South Side of Chicago, like the Jim Croce song ‘Bad, Bad Leroy Brown’ goes:
Well the South side of Chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
Of a man named Leroy Brown

😁
The reason I think that the Ambrosia Brewing Co. was located on the South Side of Chicago (apparently where the stockyards were also located) is because they had another can, similar label design but a taller and thinner 12 ounce can, and that one said “South Side Brewing Co.” at the bottom front.
Not sure which came first, whether Ambrosia Brewing Co. became South Side Brewing Co., or vice-versa.comment image
Both the regular and the taller/thinner can variations are very rare, with only a few known to exist, I’ve never seen one except in photos. This is a photo of a nicer example, but it’s small:

The Media Pushed Lies About Ferguson

scott467

Their first slogan was “Pants Down… Don’t Laugh!”
But everybody did, so they had to change it. 😁

duchess01

Hahahaha! Oh, Scott – You funny guy!!!
* Still Laughing * Sorry

Deplorable Patriot

As a resident of the same county where Ferguson, Missouri, lies, please allow me to add some other details.
Brown was graduating from HS a year late after being kicked out of a number of other high schools. And that was from Normandy HS, which is a far cry from some of the big, private schools, Ladue Horton Watkins, Clayton or anything in the Parkway School District.
The “college” he was slated to attend, Vatterott College, is a glorified trade school. I personally know the founders, not saying how, though. Trust me, he was slated to be an HVAC technician or something along those lines.
The original pathologist who did the autopsy, Gershom Norfleet (my family knows his), is black. Well, in color only. He’s second generation HIGHLY educated. His dad is a CPA, and his mother was a grade school teacher, and a really good one, too.
None of this was made clear in the national narratives. Neither was the reality that the county prosecutor at the time, Bob McCullough, was then and still is the most respected man in STL politics. As a relative who works in the county prosecutor’s office put it, he’s a bad a$$.
The national coverage of Ferguson? Al Bundy gives the example of what it resembles. H/T my brother.

duchess01

Thanks for the additional information, DP – most people would never know – because all they heard about the incident came from the LSM – and I guess the officer was not charged – was he?

Deplorable Patriot

No, Wilson was not charged. The Grand Jury came back with no bill after examining EVERY scrap of evidence.
And then the officer disappeared. At this point, other than the policeman’s organizations, I don’t know that his where abouts are known.

duchess01

Well – if he did disappear – might be to save his life – put in witness protection – he and/or his family – none of them would be safe.

Watch this. Even as a LEO family, this was hard to watch.

Now read what just happened in Oakland:
The school board in Oakland, California, has unanimously voted to abolish the district’s police force in the wake of the nationwide protests against police brutality — with some urging by teens at a city synagogue.
A large contingent of young people from Temple Beth Abraham, a Conservative congregation, was involved in pushing the board to adopt what was called the George Floyd Resolution, named for the Black man whose death at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer sparked the demonstrations.
The resolution, which was passed Wednesday, will reallocate funds to provide social workers, psychologists, restorative justice practitioners and “other mental or behavioral health professionals, as the budget supports, to meet the needs of students.”
It was created by the Black Organizing Project, an Oakland-based group that has fought to reform the city’s school district policies around policing. The organization had been trying to eliminate the district’s police force since 2011, but protests sparked by Floyd’s death injected new energy into the effort.
https://www.jta.org/2020/06/25/united-states/jewish-teens-help-successful-effort-to-abolish-oaklands-school-police-force

ForGodandCountry

No “conservative congregation” would do this. Clearly, they are “conservative” in name only.

gil00

Likely. Its Oakland. Conservative is not common.

drillerelite

Intense, wow.

scott467

What those teens need is a good smacking.
If they had ever had one before, they wouldn’t be doing stupid stuff like this.
And where are the adults?
Since when do ‘teens’ set the agenda?
It all sounds like typical Leftist narrative BS to me.
It’s like a mania, like the witch-hunts of Salem, except orchestrated for political objectives.

scott467

Very strange video beginning at the 1:30 mark.
The in-car camera shows the officer drawing his sidearm, with his windows up. He aims his pistol through the windshield as he approaches the suspect car.
He fires THROUGH the windshield (not sure why anyone is firing at this point, unless the suspect had used his car as a deadly weapon already).
Then he dumps the rest of his magazine through is driver door window… why not put the window down? It’s almost certainly an electric window, push the button once and the window goes all the way down, and you don’t have to deal with deflection of the bullet as it goes through the glass.
Then the officer gets out of his car and starts shooting at the back of the white minivan. While officers at the front of the minivan fire towards the front of the minivan AND the officer that was giving chase!
The chase car officer is likely to get shot by his own people, AND he’s going to shoot his fellow officers.
What was he thinking?
Since when do officers fire from a moving vehicle… THROUGH their own window(s)?
And then form the equivalent of a circular firing squad, where everybody is firing from both sides at a central object. Where do they think those bullets are going to go?
That was nuts…

gil00

Firing through their window isnt uncommon but yeah I had to watch 3 times to understand the sequence.

scott467

Then they DRAG the officer who was hit by the suspect back to a safer distance, which is questionable because the suspect has already been hit about a hundred times at this point, and you don’t know how you might complicate or worsen the officer’s internal injuries by dragging him.
I know, it’s the heat of the moment, but this clearly isn’t any of these guy’s first rodeo, either.
Then they pick him up and put him in the back seat of the police SUV. Then the officer WITH the injured guy unloads his full magazine THROUGH the windshield of his own cruiser, from the BACK SEAT of the cruiser, into the white minivan.
There must be 20 or more cops surrounding the minivan and firing at it, but the cop in the BACK SEAT of his police SUV… WITH the injured officer… is going to fire all of his ammo through his own windshield… with all those other cops running around?
These guys would benefit from some fire-control discipline training, or they’re going to kill each other in all this chaos.

scott467

edit / correction: apparently there was an edit to the video, the scene I described above was BEFORE they lifted the injured officer into the back of an SUV.
The scariest thing in the world is a panicked man with a gun, you can hear it in the officer’s voices.
I see it all the time in police videos, but I never see this kind of panicked screaming and chaos in military footage, so it makes me wonder why the police aren’t getting better combat training, so these situations on the street don’t turn into a free-for-all shooting gallery.

gil00

The cop dragging is standard. He is alive and they have to clear him from the scene. They all dump the suspect bc no one knew if he was hit but they did know he was attempting murder.

Another good one I saw today shows Michelle Obama with her infamous quote about people having to give up a part of the pie so everyone can have a slice….behind a photo of the 20 acre, $14 million dollar vacation home on Martha’s Vineyard.
That is an excellent one showing the utter hypocrisy of the Obama’s…he who said at some point you’ve made enough money.

Y’all are not gonna BELIEVE what happened to me today!
My DH works for a local non-profit. It is global, but locally run. I shouldn’t say which one. It has been open through the entire lockdown, apparently one of the few, if not the only, one to stay open in the U.S.
One of the volunteers there is a rabid leftist who thinks he is a complete genius. He’s a moron like the rest of them.
A couple of days ago, he got hurt in an accident at home and had to go to the doc. He called to tell the non-profit that he had tested positive for Covid! Of course, I was freaked, because now I think I have exposed people. So I went to tell my closest friend what had happened, as she would be exposed. She wasn’t very worried, as she feels like me, that eventually we will ALL be exposed. I hesitated to tell anyone else, and thank God I did!
This morning my friend messaged me to tell me that no new cases had been entered in our county. Since we only have less than a handful, literally three, it isn’t hard to tell. I told DH to bring it up to those up the chain, because that sure seemed “off.”
Midday, I checked in. The leftist-guy had emailed the head guy and said he AND his wife had tested positive. It’s in WRITING. By then the head guy had figured out what we had about no new cases, and called lefty to ask some questions. Guess what? The leftist asshole had LIED!
He said he and his wife had taken two tests, and both were NEGATIVE. He just “felt sure” he had it. Yeah, right!
That lying bastard was trying to get the place closed, I’m sure of it. “By Any Means Necessary” is what they mean. I told my DH that he needs to make sure everyone understands that we are AT WAR, and until the election we have to be on that footing. Situational awareness, and the knowledge that they mean BAMN. It is so depressing to me what pieces of shit people have become.

Unbelievable dishonesty – can you imagine the lives he could have disrupted because he lied?
I am beginning to think that is what happened to all of us who were locked inside and not told the truth!

ForGodandCountry

Fact is….everyone is a piece of shit. That’s the baseline.
Now, they can find Christ and go up from there, or be birthed into a a family that has raised itself above the baseline (normally through Christ). But anyone can return to the baseline. Heck, Peter the Rock did, too, and he knew it when the cock crowed three times.
The trick is to not stay there too long.

######### WARNING WARNING WARNING ###########
The airlines have instituted policy whereby if a passenger refuses to wear a mask, or removes his/her mask while in flight and refuses to put it back on, that airline will add that person’s name to a list and that person will be blacklisted from being able to travel on that airline.
I now fully expect this list to be centralized soon so that being blacklisted at one airline means that a person will be blacklisted at all airlines.comment image

ForGodandCountry

Is this legal?
A: probably not, but they are doing it anyway

gil00

So how are they bypassing ADA?

ForGodandCountry

They are ignoring it.
Why?
A: Because the # of Karens crying about mask usage, taking pics, and thrn using social media to create an online riot is far > than the number of people talking about ADA.
Remember, the airlines are governed by the FAA. And the FAA’s employees are UNIONIZED. Which means they are, by and large, all democrats. So the airlines are going to go along with the PC culture, if only to keep the feds off their back. 1 bad FAA inspector can ground an entire airline.
It’s the system. And the whole system revolves around two word….
SAFETY FIRST

gil00

Well you know its not about safety.
I sure hope the pilots arent wearing masks while they fly…

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

Yes. We don’t need hypoxic or hypercapnic pilots.
I have a thin “social” (phony) custom mask now, and I still get woozy in about 10 or 15 minutes, but not as bad as my old mask.

gil00

I was looking into ada rules and found that airlines, unbelievably, DO NOT have to follow ada. They have another legal guidance they follow. So Id have to look up again to see if this is allowed.

piper567

maybe a good vehicle for getting this issue into the Courts?

Airline incorporating Chinese methods to control society. In China they keep a list also if one does not obey the master.

Hey, Wolf, can this be considered for a thread of its own? Here it’s buried. With its own post all of us can share it via various platforms.

Yes, I think it needs a thread. I can do it, if you want to wait a bit. Otherwise, feel free to do it yourself. It may be a day or two for me.

Take a look at that thread and see if my removal of the top post fixed things, which I believe it did. There is a secondary post answering a question by Pat Frederick, but I think that one’s OK, so I left that alone.

Did Abbott shut down the Texas economy today?

kalbokalbs

Visiting TX at the moment.
Dunno what Abbott did or didn’t do. From what I have seen, in TX it is a county or city decision what to do.
– El Paso a couple days ago. Hotel had a sign saying masks mandatory in this establishment. I ignored it. Not challenged. Eateries no issue for customers.
– Couple gas stations and eateries crossing TX. Lots of masks. Not me. No challenges.
– Waco. Hotel signage said masks mandatory. I ignored it. They challenged me. Told them I have asthma and lung issues, not wearing a mask. No more problem.
– – Idiot restaurant. Masks required entering. Then none while seated. Including adjacent to entry area. Lunacy.
guessing restaurants and hotels comply so they don’t lose their license or created issues with health department.
A couple counties / cities in area, SW Houston, require masks, or will within a day or so. thankfully not the county I am in. Its a podunk or sorts, which I am thankful for. Wonderful folks.
Dumb ass water park at Galveston Island requires masks when folks are not actually in the water. Cancelled that day trip. Grand kids still going with their mother and uncle. I have no intention of wearing a mask.

I’ve uncovered a Potential Clue in the alleged underground movement of trafficking victims & the red stone rings some presumed pedophiles wear…This was an unexpected & serendipitous discovery by reviewing a Children’s Book I’d checked out for my daughter prior to the Plannedemic Fiasco…
This book is called “Building History, Egyptian Pyramid” by Gillian Clements. These quotes are from pages 14 & 15.
These pages describe how a burial/pyramid site was laid out.
“All ancient Egyptian royal burials were in the Western Desert. People saw the Sun set in the west every night, and so they linked the west with the Kingdom of the Dead–the home of the chief underworld god Osiris.”
“What were the solar boat pits? Each day when the Sun god Atum-Re sailed across the heavens, he ensured that the seasons–and night and day–were kept in balance. Khufu was thought to be a son of Atum-Re. Egyptians believed that, in the Afterlife, he would also need a solar boat to sail across the heavens beside his father, so they buried some in pits around his tomb.”
There is an illustration at the bottom of these pages depicting an underground waterway with a couple of Egyptian style boats traveling there & the red emblem, representing the sun, Looks almost Exactly like the Red Rings seen on so many fingers of questionable persons. The combo of the underground passage & the red oval surrounded by a gold setting as well as the illusions related to death is what made me Speculate that this Might be the reason for that particular red stoned symbol…
Here’s the final text on those pages: “Egyptians believed that after the Sun set in the west, it continued to sail on through the night, underground…Pictured as a red disk on a boat, the Sun was carried through the watery chaos of the underworld, ready to rise again in the east the next morning.”comment image
The figure on the far left of the boat image below, assuming it shows, has the red oval on its head, it is a bird headed man, I believe, where the other figures appear to be variously adorned humans…

Ancient Egypt for kids – The Sun Boat
The mythology of ancient Egypt and the Sun Boat of Ra, the solar barque or sun barge
Sun Boat or Solar Barque
Discover interesting facts and information about the legends and mythology of Ancient Egypt and the Sun Boat of Ra. Ra, the Supreme Solar God was believed to traverse the sky each day in a solar barque, or sun boat, and pass through the realms of the underworld (Duat) each night on another solar barge to reappear in the east every morning. These two sun boats in which Ra was supposed to sail over heaven were called the Atet, or Matet, the boat in which he journeyed from sunrise until noon, and the Sektet boat in which he journeyed from noon until sunset. According to ancient Egyptian mythology he was attacked in the Underworld and battled against Apep, the mighty or serpent or snake god, that typified of evil and darkness.
Facts about the Sun Boat of Ra
Who was Ra? Ra was the Egyptian sun deity and creator god. The following facts and profile provides a fast overview of Ra:
Solar Barge Fact File

Morning Sun Boat: The morning sun boat was called the Atet, or Matet. The Matet was the first of two boats traveled in by Ra the sun god, as he traveled the sky daily
Evening Sun Boat: The evening sun boat was called the Sektet boat. Ra journeyed from noon until sunset on the Sektet boat to the terrifying realm of the Underworld (Duat)
The Sun Boat: The Sun Boat as called “The Boat of a Million Years” or the ‘Barque of Ages’
Apep: Under the ship swims a giant snake or deadly serpent called Apep who attacks and battles with Ra. Apep was viewed as the greatest enemy of Ra, and therefore given the title ‘Enemy of Ra’. Apep had a terrifying roar would cause the underworld to rumble
The Battles: The defeat of Apep each night, in favour of Ra, was thought to be ensured by the prayers of the Egyptian priests and worshipers at temples. Ra was also helped by other gods.
The ‘Eater-up of Souls’: Apep of the Underworld was perceived as an ‘Eater-up of Souls’. The souls of the deceased also needed protection and spells to help them were included in the Book of the Dead
There’s a lot of interesting info on Ra the sun god at this link…http://www.landofpyramids [dot] org/ra [dot] htm
Ra in Egyptian Mythology – The Eye of Ra
The sun god Ra also features in ancient Egyptian mythology in relation to the the all-seeing Eye of Ra and the Eye of Horus. The right “Eye of Ra”, represented the sun, and the left eye, represented the moon.

Depictions of Ra in Egyptian Art
The pictures and depictions of Ra in ancient Egyptian art can be found in the tombs, temples, manuscripts and hieroglyphics, artefacts and relics of ancient Egypt. The people of ancient Egypt were able to recognise and distinguish their numerous gods and goddesses by their depictions in art.
The god is often depicted holding the Ankh, the key of life, that represented eternal life and the ‘Was Scepter’ a symbol of divine power and an emblem of authority.
His crown, or headdress, of the sun disk symbolized the sun and was usually encircled by the Uraeus, the sacred cobra, a potent emblem of sovereignty, royalty and divine authority
He is sometimes also depicted with the head of a ram that is always surmounted with the sun disk and represented his role as a god of the Underworld
http://www.landofpyramids.org/images/ra-12.jpg
http://www.landofpyramids.org/images/ra-isis-nephthys.jpg
The ‘Eye of Horus’
The “Eye of Horus” was one of the most important Egyptian Symbols symbolizing of royal power, protection and good health. It is depicted as a human eye and symbolically with the long tail and brows which are the markings of a hawk. It was a fetish that was believed to embody magical powers and offer magical protection. It also had the power to heal the living and protect the dead.

Egyptian Religion Fact 12: The Pyramids were believed to be resurrection vehicles – a ‘Stargate’ leading to heaven and eternal life.
Egyptian Religion Fact 13: Obelisks were believed to act as magical protection to religious monuments such as temples and tombs.
Symbols for Egypt:
The Sun Disk The solar god Ra was usually depicted in human form with a falcon head, crowned with the sun disk encircled by the Uraeus. “Aten” was the traditional name for the sun-disk

Without a doubt this type of arcane or esoteric knowledge seems to be fashionable with the elite ruling class. Much of the knowledge is practically ignored in main stream thought and history in general is thought to start with the Bible, Greeks, Romans, and in some rarer cases the Persians. Of course it’s hard enough to get people to look back toward our own history and the founding of this nation with out drawing blank stares. The fact that there is at least 2000 years of written history backed up by archaeology that predates the Persians and most of the Bible stories which only go back at best another 500 years pretty much goes over most peoples heads.
What the elite do seem to fasten onto is anything from ancient history that seems to be anti Bible. from Egyptian, Canaanite, Amorite etc… sources even though those cultures are minor and were not founded in a vacuum while there is much more to all this stuff that is very relevant today.
