A Political Statement
One of my stock jokes is to say, as I head off to the bathroom or washroom or restroom, “I’m going to go make a political statement.”
It certainly seems like urinating is a good way to make a statement about the YSM, and defecating works for politicians. Or the other way around is good too, though “#1” just never seems emphatic enough.
Maybe “#1” is just being polite, and “#2” is telling the fixtures what you really think.
Anyhow, I pretty much do plan to be polite to RINOs that electioneer or fundraise. I’ll tell them, Sorry, but I need to GO Pee…
The Twenty Stand-Up Shitbags (Plus Five More Who Were Just Cowardly Shitbags)
Twenty were stand-up shitbags, who actually voted against punishing Adam Schitt, leaving no doubt where they stood. Five more voted present or were sure to be elsewhere…effectively helping shut down justice, but without being overt about it.
At least the first 20 weren’t weasely about it; we know how the insides of those bags stink.
But it won’t work, you Cowardly Five. We’re onto you.
But then…
I read something in the YSM today that suggested that the 20 who voted against censuring, ejecting. and fining Adam #2 (see above if you’re wondering who Adam #1 is–there isn’t one) were mostly concerned about the constitutional propriety of the fine.
OK, fair enough. I can actually see that being an issue; one I’d want to hear arguments on, pro- and con-.
We’ll get some clarity as to the real reason soon. Next week will be a simple censure motion. I’d like to see the little pencilneck turd kicked out as well, but let’s see how “The Twenty” vote this time around.
Language Warning
In the next piece I had to discuss a particular topic. Unfortunately, I couldn’t discuss it without naming it. Therefore I apologize in advance for having to do so, and apologize to anyone offended by the sight of the name.
RINO McDaniel
RINO McDaniel continues to infest the GOP. But RINO McDaniel isn’t the problem.
Let me be crystal clear on this, RINO McDaniel is a lower-than-whale-shit, piss guzzling ratfucking shit eating traitorous rancid syphillitic cunt. Her worth as a human being is substantially less than zero, any oxygen sucked into her lungs is wasted, and it would be, no matter what job she had.
I fear I haven’t been clear enough, but that will have to suffice.
But she is not the problem…or rather, she would not be a problem were it not for others. She’d still be as I have described, but we wouldn’t know who she is and would not care, because she could do no damage. She’d just be anonymous human refuse.
No, the real problem is the fact that a majority of the 168 top GOP people voted for her. And now that has happened five times so they cannot claim they didn’t know what she was.
In spite of the fact that under her “leadership” the party has deliberately sabotaged the will of its base, has deliberately refused to challenge blatant election fraud, had gone out of its way to ensure certain candidates do not get nominated, has diverted donor money to namby-pamby candidates who have all the electoral appeal of a puddle of dog vomit…and in general has done nothing whatsoever to help fix the problems that plague America.
However that last is to be expected; I cannot expect anyone who IS the problem to help FIX the problem.
RINO McDaniel would be powerless without an entire party leadership of the same mind as her. They want this dismal performance; they want to ignore the party base.
If she were to drop dead this instant, it would solve nothing as someone just like her would be elected by those same pustulous people.
According to Charlie Kirk, about 55 people voted against her, 10-12 wanted something different but were too chickenshit to do the right thing, and roughly 100 people voted for her enthusiastically, and even had the unmitigated gall to complain to Kirk about US. Fuck ’em. Rusty 12 gauge bore brushes would be too good for these arrogant pricks and cunts.
Every single one of those hundred is just as bad as she is. In other words, they are all worse than I described at the beginning of this piece. And no doubt those people in turn have people who supported them to be state party chairs and whateveritis they call the other two people from each state and territory who were voting.
It’s time to face up to the fact that the Republican party is effectively owned by the shit-eating RINOs. We’ve got more work to do, a lot more work, to make the GOP an instrument for the restoration of the United States of America. And that’s in addition to cleaning up our elections.
There’s no point in cleaning up elections just to elect ratfucking RINOs.
OK, hopefully now you will have some inkling of my true attitude towards RINOs. Sorry that words were inadequate to give you the full picture.
The Real Fascist is His Fraudulency Joe Biden*
*Or whoever has his hand rammed up that meat puppet’s ass.
Brandon (which I will use as a term for whoever is the power behind the Porcelain Throne) has thrown down the gauntlet…but in a way where most of America will never see it. The networks didn’t carry his tirade. CNN air brushed it (or whatever you call editing the red background) for its five viewers (who aren’t trapped in airports).
Luckily for me I live in Colorado, and therefore, despite my best efforts, I probably didn’t vote for Donald Trump.
Of course, for this purpose who I actually did try to vote for will be essential, and they undoubtedly know.
Come and get us, asswipes!

Justice Must Be Done.
The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.
Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.
Small Government?
Many times conservatives (real and fake) speak of “small government” being the goal.
This sounds good, and mostly is good, but it misses the essential point. The important thing here isn’t the size, but rather the purpose, of government. We could have a cheap, small tyranny. After all our government spends most of its revenue on payments to individuals and foreign aid, neither of which is part of the tyrannical apparatus trying to keep us locked down and censored. What parts of the government would be necessary for a tyranny? It’d be a lot smaller than what we have now. We could shrink the government and nevertheless find it more tyrannical than it is today.
No, what we want is a limited government, limited not in size, but rather in scope. Limited, that is, in what it’s allowed to do. Under current circumstances, such a government would also be much smaller, but that’s a side effect. If we were in a World War II sort of war, an existential fight against nasty dictatorships on the brink of world conquest, that would be very expensive and would require a gargantuan government, but that would be what the government should be doing. That would be a large, but still limited government, since it’d be working to protect our rights.
World War II would have been the wrong time to squawk about “small government,” but it wasn’t (and never is) a bad time to demand limited government. Today would be a better time to ask for a small government–at least the job it should be doing is small today–but it misses the essential point; we want government to not do certain things. Many of those things we don’t want it doing are expensive but many of them are quite eminently doable by a smaller government than the one we have today. Small, but still exceeding proper limits.
So be careful what you ask for. You might get it and find you asked for the wrong thing.
Political Science In Summation
It’s really just a matter of people who can’t be happy unless they control others…versus those who want to be left alone. The oldest conflict within mankind. Government is necessary, but government attracts the assholes (a highly technical term for the control freaks).
A Few Things We Cannot Blame on His Fraudulency
I am pretty sure Joe Biden had nothing whatsoever to do with the 30 Years War that ran from 1618-1648 and probably killed about a third of the people then living in what is now Germany.
Nor did he cause the collapse of either Roman empire (Western, 476 CE, Eastern 1453 CE). Nor the ignominious failure of most of the Crusades. Nor the collapse of Bronze Age civilization around 1200 BCE (including the collapse of the Minoans and the blowup of Santorini).
However, my utter lack of ability to imagine how he could possibly be responsible for these things is not a valid argument against them, so I await correction if appropriate.
His Truth?
Again we saw an instance of “It might be true for Billy, but it’s not true for Bob” logic this week.
I hear this often, and it’s usually harmless. As when it’s describing differing circumstances, not different facts. “Housing is unaffordable” can be true for one person, but not for another who makes ten times as much.
But sometimes the speaker means it literally. Something like 2+2=4 is asserted to be true for Billy but not for Bob. (And when it’s literal, it’s usually Bob saying it.) And in that sense, it’s nonsense, dangerous nonsense. There is ONE reality, and it exists independent of our desires and our perceptions. It would go on existing if we weren’t here. We exist in it. It does not exist in our heads. It’s not a personal construct, and it isn’t a social construct. If there were no society, reality would continue to be what it is, it wouldn’t vanish…which it would have to do, if it were a social construct.
Now what can change from person to person is the perception of reality. We see that all the time. And people will, of course, act on those perceptions. They will vote for Trump (or try to) if their perception is close to mine, and vote against Trump (and certainly succeed at doing so) if their perception is distant from mine (and therefore, if I do say so, wrong). I have heard people say “perception is reality” and usually, that’s what they’re trying to say–your perception of reality is, as far as you know, an accurate representation of reality, or you’d change it.
But I really wish they’d say it differently. And sometimes, to get back to Billy and Bob, the person who says they have different truths is really saying they have different perceptions of reality–different worldviews. I can’t argue with the latter. But I sure wish they’d say it better. That way I’d know that someone who blabbers about two different truths is delusional and not worth my time, at least not until he passes kindergarten-level metaphysics on his umpteenth attempt.

OK now for the fine print.
This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines, here, with an addendum on 20191110.
We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.
And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

(Paper) Spot Prices
Kitco “Ask” prices. Last week:
Gold $1,961.90
Silver $24.66
Platinum $972.00
Palladium $1,322.00
Rhodium $4,750.00
This week, 3PM Mountain Time, markets have closed for the weekend.
Gold $1,960.40
Silver $24.41
Platinum $945.00
Palladium $1,280.00
Rhodium $4,800.00
Gold barely moved at all, everything else is down except rhodium which moved up by what appears to be the minimum increment (I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a price for it which wasn’t a mulitiple of $50.
So it seems to have been a quiet week, but then again I rarely look during the week.

China is in the White House, because Joe Biden is in the White House, and Joe Biden is identically equal to China. China is Asshoe. Therefore, Joe Biden is Asshoe.

For some reason it showed only as a link, to me, as I scanned through to see if any of the boilerplate had become too dated to keep. I figured it was Ahnuld saying “Fuck you, asshole.”

Never would have guessed, so I peeked at the URL…
I didn’t recognize him at first either.
Guess they found out whose courtroom it is.
Furious?
What is this, an episode of Cagney and Lacy?
Silly theater.
She doesn’t need to be ‘furious’, she needs to be serious.
If the judge was even remotely serious, she would have filed charges against the crooked lawyers and made an example of them, like they would do to you or me.
Instead we get a lot of “To the Moon, Alice!” posturing and not even a slap on the wrist.
Which, of course, only encourages more of the same from crooked lawyers.
If the clerk is being ‘ill-used’, then hold the abusers accountable, judge.
If you can’t do that, then hold yourself accountable, and throw yourself off the bench.
What I have decided is, in this world, there are “talkers” and “act-ers.”
I am an “act-er.” Piss me off or wrong me or mine, and I am going to DO something, and whoever made me mad probably won’t like it much. It won’t be words, that I can tell you. President Trump is an “act-er,” too, which is why I love him.
Sadly, most people are talkers. They SAY a lot about what they’ll do, but they rarely actually DO anything.
Sucks.
Perhaps Congress needs to pass harsher laws for deceiving the courts.
Unfortunately, even if the death penalty was the punishment for what the lawyer did, who would enforce it?
Hmmm…

Thank you for these. Prayers ongoing for you here and at Marica’s blog. Be well.
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

Yours Truly: Today’s offerings from Mole are ** very interesting.** Among them:
https://redstate.com/smoosieq/2023/07/28/illegal-chinese-bio-lab-discovered-in-central-california-n783720
Yours Truly: We’re talking FRESNO COUNTY here. The CDC, which was called in by the city of Reedley after numerous building code violations were found, made an inspection of the biolab, and found all kinds of nasty things — among them, many dead lab mice AND samples of MALARIA and STREPTOCOCCUS PNEUMONIA — in total, OVER 800 TYPES of biological materials and chemicals items. The biolab was also making and selling COVID-19 and pregnancy tests. There were many vials of human blood found at the biolab, vials that had no labels on them. The dead mice had been “genetically altered” to catch and to carry the COVID-19 virus.
The biolab was in a building that was supposed to be VACANT.
The company that ran the biolab is called Prestige Biotech. It is based in Nevada. It apparently is owned by two people who may be American-based Chinese nationals.
What did Gavin Newsom, who has “wet dreams” of being the next President of the United States, know about this biolab in HIS STATE, and when did he know about it?

Thank you for these. IMO, this Zhaoyan Wang person is most likely an American-based Chinese national. Also looks like Wang has been involved in **sketchy** biomedical things for some time, all the way over to Louisiana.
Baidu, mentioned in the Louisiana court documents, is a Communist Chinese internet/AI company with HQ in Beijing.

Reedley a small podunk. Mostly orange groves.
Po’folks and illegals abundant. Stones throw from Orosi, CA.
NV based company could easily do work in NV boondocks, and NEVER get caught.
The folks who live around there might not be so sanguine about said lab…
Nor should they be.
My guess, most don’t tune into any news. Stuck on TW, FB, Insty…
Those with a clue, likely pissed off. If not already done, come Monday they’ll be pinging on local officials.
Would be nice in Nunes was still in he House.
Fresno, in the California Central Valley (albeit at the south end) where many things are grown FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION, including dates, almonds, and other fruits/nuts that can store pollutants long term.
Also the birthplace of William Saroyan and a host of other brilliant Armenian authors, artists, and other talents. Maybe Air-Head-Man sponsored it…….

YOWERI MUSEVENI: DESTROYED THE WEST IN FRONT OF PUTIN | RUSSIA – AFRICA SUMMIT
Wow. Thanks for bringing this to the QTree Phoenix. There have been some great words spoken at the Africa-Russia summit.
One really has to listen in order to decipher Museveni’s words, but it’s well worth the effort.
Yesterday, the President of Burkno Faso, Ibrahim Traore, spoke at the Russia-Africa Summit in support of the Russian invasion against Ukraine. The words were very fitting to the situation with the recent ousting of France from Mali and the current ousting of the Niger pro-French President.
“A slave who does not rebel does not deserve pity. The African Union (AU) must stop condemning Africans who choose to fight against their own puppet regimes in the West.”
The rhetoric from France, the EU and the US today is the language of condemnation and punishment against the “slaves” who have risen up in Niger…The European Union has suspended financial support and security cooperation, French President Macron demands the return to power of deposed President Bazum and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has declared that continued financial aid from the US depends on the re-instatement of President Bazum.
Niger is the last stronghold of the French Colonial rule in Africa and if the Summit is any indication, the African Union, now backed by Russia and China, is done with the West.
I will not be around to see it, but it would be fascinating to see Africa rise to its potential.
Thank you Little Mouse for commenting on the video and particularly the significance of Museveni’s words …
This Russian journalist has lots of info on various AFRICAN COUNTRIES and their trade agreements with Russia… very interesting … just scroll through the last 2/3 days
https://t.me/s/VA_Nikonov/ there’s a pop-up menu for ‘English’
anytime….ooooo Great site…thanks phoenix…
I just learned that France takes 1/3 of its uranium requirements from Niger…no wonder the US, France and the EU have their knickers in a knot.
Supposedly, this is the finance minister of Niger, after the overthrow:
Sucks to be him.
I’m guessing he’s a scapegoat and the $99 Million in missing funds was laundered back into Macron’s Presidential campaign….
Yes. Let’s start with hundreds of billions to Ukraine.
If they shoot him without getting the information I would suspect them of being complicit, and excusing their silencing of him.
We have become slaves to the government except many have no idea. This will get worse.
“This will get worse.”
Yes, unfortunately it will.
It is going to affect our children and grandchildren. In my age it will not much affect anymore.
Well now. Blinky Blinken is following BiteMe’s example – how to influence people with threats of non-funding.
:0) but no Quid Pro Quo like Trump was accused of…oh wait..
It’s just a coinky-dink. :0)
This disturbs me so greatly I just can’t think about it often. It is just too much.
They hate America.
Killjoys.
They do. We know it. They know it….
And they know we know it.
And we know they know we know it.
And they know we know they know we know it.
And yet they still do it.
Yea. I got tired of pecking the characters in.
The implication is that the second person might be complicit in the man’s death. It also occurs to me that it might have been one of the daughters who didn’t have the maturity or experience to do whatever was needed to help the man.

“The fellow paddleboarder told investigators they tried to swim to Campbell’s location but couldn’t reach him in time.”
Reach him in time to save him? Then did the 2nd paddleboarder think he was deceased, or was that person unable to reach him because he was drifting away?
MeThinks and have posted, one of the daughters involved.
Either as second paddle boarder, or “paly time” mate.
“It also occurs to me that it might have been one of the daughters who didn’t have the maturity or experience to do whatever was needed to help the man.”
______________
Even a young child has the instinct to help someone in need.
Just watch them.
That doesn’t mean that people who don’t make the best decisions are necessarily guilty of intentional murder. Sometimes a dilemma presents itself in which it’s very diffiult to know the best course of action to save someone. I can think of examples, and I’m sure you can too. 😊
Even a dog will try to help a drowning person. The daughter are adults not petite and have been around unless they all were stoned or sniffed some white powder.
Yes, and the story is that the second paddleboarder DID try to help.
I understand everyone’s suspicions and even share them. What I don’t understand or agree with is the passing of judgment when we don’t know all the facts.
Yes, we are dealing with liars and evildoers. Does that mean they committed murder in this case? Maybe, and maybe not. We will probably never know the truth. That is my point: We don’t know. Our speculation does not make something true unless we have enough evidence to remove reasonable doubt. We don’t have that at present, and probably never will.
So people can decide that BO killed his chef, or had him killed. Maybe just declare BO to be the second paddleboarder, decide how the chef was murdered, and be done with it. 😎
“Yes, we are dealing with liars and evildoers. Does that mean they committed murder in this case? Maybe, and maybe not.”

The problem of course, is that if there was nothing to hide, there would be nothing to hide.
Instead, everything is hidden.
Prior bad acts of the main actors are a legitimate consideration.
Prior bad acts of crime enforcement are a legitimate consideration.
I disagree, as outlined in my other comments.
If the second paddleboarder were completely innocent and therefore had nothing to hide, people would still suspect that person and second-guess their actions for the rest of that person’s life. One can be innocent and still persecuted by the public. So nothing to hide due to innocence, but something to hide from: public condemnation and false judgment.
A lot of people will no doubt disagree, but I am of the opinion that we don’t always have to know everything when people are innocent. If the public could act as completely unbiased, fair judges, it would be different; but I think that is pretty rare — which concerns me if I ever needed a jury. Some people make up their minds with almost no facts to support their suppositions, based on feelings, dislike, personal prejudice of all kinds, lack of ability to imagine scenarios outside of their own experience, etc.
Yes, they are. And the same would be said if Barron Trump were the second paddleboarder: supposed “bad acts” of his father, intense dislike of his father and family, belief in their criminality, etc., would make him automatically “guilty.”
Law enforcement is going to protect the rich and famous. IMO, if they are innocent, there are situations where I would not object. If they are guilty of crime, of course I object to that.
If we are not given all the facts, we can’t judge for ourselves whether LE is covering up a crime or shielding an innocent person from the public’s harsh and unjust judgments. So we can make the choice to decide for ouselves who is involved and that they are guilty of wrongdoing, or we can realize that we don’t know and keep an open mind.
You made excellent points thank you 🙂
Many things could have happen but going to stop letting my mind being burden with it. Only God and who ever was there knows.
There is no excuse for rendering immediate aid. <<< If NOT possible, summon help immediately. Everyone mentioned thus far, IS an adult. Accountable.
The fact there are gaps AND omissions. Foul play, in play. Until proven otherwise.
Who, what, TBD.
OR, swept up in covering lies, As Expected. It IS what they do.
Yes, and I’m not saying otherwise. I’m saying sometimes there are situations where the best thing to do is not clear. I’m NOT making excuses for anyone; I just know that sometimes things are not as cut-and-dried as we like to make them.
(NOTE: I have no idea if the conditions I describe were actually present. This is just an example.)
I can envision a scenario where a second person is at a distance and sees the man go down. They try to save him — which is what any decent human being, including a child, would know to do — by swimming to him to render aid, but find that, for whatever reason, they are not getting any closer to him. (He is drifting away, or they have lost sight of him and don’t know which direction to go, etc.) So they make the decision to swim to shore to get aid, knowing that precious time could be lost to save him.
Maybe if they had just stuck with it and kept swimming, they would have reached him and been able to help. Maybe they panicked in the moment and made a decision that was not optimal. Or maybe not. We don’t know.
Under this scenario they did try to render immediate aid, found it was not possible, and summoned help as quickly as possible, as you say must be done.
Possibly, but IMO not necessarily. It is common to keep the children of famous people out of the spotlight, especially if everyone would be questioning their motives and decisions for the rest of their lives, when it was actually an unfortunate accident.
Alternatively, of course, there was foul play involved. BO himself was the second paddleboarder, rigged things where the chef would go down, and let him drown. Or an agent of BO was the second paddleboarder, with the same result.
By keeping the name of the second paddleboarder secret, they are generating suspicion. Alternatively, if they gave out the name of that person and it were one of BO’s daughters, she would be dogged by the story for the rest of her life, when she might have done everything she could and was not at fault. I know I am in the minority with this opinion, and might even be the only one who holds it, but I can understand not publicizing the name of one of the daughters. I can envision how it would be if something like this happened to Barron Trump. His life would be altered forever, not only because he was involved in such a tragic incident, but because people would point the finger at him, not knowing the circumstances or — more likely — having decided he was guilty, no matter what.
I agree with people that the lack of information is suspicious. I think where I differ is in the conclusions that are drawn. I’m not counting suspicions and theories as fact until I see proof.
I tend to agree with your caution here.
If nothing more comes out about this, people will simply leap to the conclusion that it is foul play. Within two months it will be assumed as if it were fact.
I think we’re already there.
Transparency would resolve lots a, what if’n.
Yes. And I don’t think we’re going to get it.
You’ve given several scenarios where a lack of transparency would be be absolutely proper; cases where we SHOULD NOT get it.
The issue is people will assume that the lack of transparency will mean bad things, rather than it meaning the only thing it actually means: a lack of transparency.
So the rich and famous are shielded.
The commoner would not be shielded.
The commoner would be pursued or absolved.
Unacceptable, IMO.
These days, truth and transparency are apparently negotiable. Wealthy, butt hurt feelings count, for them.
We are to “trust” LE judgement. Trust, DAs, judgement. After all, they have a great record of integrity.
As usual, slow guy puzzled.
A good point, but it’s beside the point I’m trying to make.
The fact that they’re shielded shouldn’t be taken as evidence this was a murder. It means we don’t know what happened.
And “we don’t know” means ONLY “we don’t know.”
Absolutely.

Thanks.
I prefer Kodachrome, myself…
Oh shuush. 😆
Well, here’s my take on this. If it were you or me, our life would be altered forever, and no one would shield us at all. Even when we are innocent of wrongdoing, there are consequences in life. That might not be fair, but as my daughter likes to say “fare” is something you pay on a bus.
Hiding behind law enforcement only makes the situation suspicious. And we are at the edge of a boiling point in this country, where who knows which “let them eat cake” causes the explosion.
Or, to quote Dr. Spock from The Wrath of Khan:
“Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.”
Captain Kirk answers:
“Or the one.”
Yes, we would not be shielded.
Would you feel exactly the same way if the situation involved Barron Trump and if the consequences could hurt his father politically, when Barron was innocent in the matter? There are times and situations where we are not equal. Not fair, but sometimes possibly an outcome for the greater good.
Note that that does not mean not prosecuting the guilty. I’m talking about innocent people.
If Barron were involved and innocent, I have no doubt that the Trumps would tell the truth. Because integrity matters, and because hiding a secret like that would damage Barron in the long run far more than telling the truth.
I believe Donald and Melania love their son more than they value politics. That is what I choose to believe.
It was either one of the daughters, or the reincarnation of Ted Kennedy.
I think it was the lizard/Zuckerberg man that the gal on the plane saw…. 😀
Still waiting for Scott’s latest link 🙂

Why treat an accident like it’s a state secret.

They’re all males…
Illegal invading army.
And every one of them gets to bring “relatives” into the United States under “family reuniting.”
As I understand it, the entering illegals are not required to be vaccinated.
Our replacements?
And they bring all sorts of other problems, parasites, diseases, and other plagues with them…
Right there should tell every moron that Biden and his minions scammed the American people by requiring the jab.
Same as they do her for the multi-million Moslems…
One military-aged Misanthropic Malthusian Moslem male, up to four wives/concubines, and ALL of their children (average four per woman). That adds up to a 1:25 ratio….. our taxes at work, funding, feeding, clothing, housing, insuring, providing phones and perks (allowances) to our replacement population…
Gee, ain’t it a grand life when someone else is paying for it….
[And after we’ve paid for it all, we’ll have nothing and they say we’re supposed to be happy… 😡 ]…..
Well, this is interesting, and possibly useful.
Hollywood commies made a video in 2016 telling the [Republican members of the] Electoral College to remove Trump as POTUS. For some reason after J6 I couldn’t find the video anywhere in the usual websites. Hypocritical pieces of shit.
Link to the video:
https://streamable.com/yrv6vl
On the video they say, “As you know, the Constitution gives Electors the right to vote for any eligible person,” no matter which party they belong to. And, “I’m not asking you to vote for Hillary Clinton.”
Git ’em, Barnes.
Dana Loesch… isn’t she that sweaty sham-wow style juice selling lady?
Yep, but she sure packs a lot of heat…

Loesch was also part of the Southern Border “Teddy Bears and Soccer Balls” campaign.
Reminiscent of Darwin at feeding time, and on one of his good days. (I remembered)
Yes, the man doing the feeding has only one arm.
Shade of the old Two-Fingers Tequila ads… or not 😮
“Yes, the man doing the feeding has only one arm.”

Slow learner.
Darwin once did manage to bite me while trying to go after food, and yes he could leap back in the day.
He immediately let go when he realized his mistake.
Well yea. You are not edible AND too dang big.
Or was it, don’t bite the hand that feeds ya? <<< Yea, pretty lame.
Actually, we are eminently edible. (Even by critters his size, under the right circumstances.)
We are “civilized” so it’s easy to forget that.
It is very important for small critters to avoid chomping on creatures that hold grudges.
In this particular case, I bear no grudge. A simple mistake on my part at feeding time.
Yep. All that gristle 😀

Surprise.
Kevin IS involved. GO Freedom Caucus. 
Was hoping someone would catch that …
and you noted I’m sure that it is Reps, not DIMs that are pushing to slash s/s
The reps have a reason and it is Trump. They are going to show us who runs the party and it is not Trump but how wrong they are. In the meantime people will be really ticked off.
I still can’t explain to myself WHY Trump was so adamant that RINO Kevin be elected Speaker …
(One action/omission of a growing list)
Just think about why they are ding the cuts on SS. My hunch is because Trump is leading they are sacrificing the republican party’s win to get rid of Trump.
Only an idiot would touch SS at this time of higher inflation. Kevin McCarthy is a snake.
It will not make much difference to me because we have other income. I know many people through no fault of their own are relying on SS and hanging on. I can cut back without disturbing my life but I pray for others.

Sorry didn’t see it was already reported.

No problem, the more the information is spread around, the better.
How many of these illegal Chinese-run and/or funded biolabs are in the U.S.? Bad enough the NIH / NIAID is / has been, funding biolab work via EcoHealth Alliance and other “front” groups (like Ralph Baric’s lab at UNC), plus what the agency did / does in their own labs.
Betcha there are funding lines going back to NIH and or DoD.

We call on US to remove itself from Syrian airspace, where they never were invited in the first place
“Stop messing with our illegal invasion for land and oil grab
In other words, the United States empire is losing control over exploiting Syrian oil fields.
Syrian Airspace not FJ Biden Airspace.
Uhhhh…Mr Austin. The Russian are there at the request of the Syrian government. You and Biden have our troops there without an invitation and have put a large bullseye on their backs. Bring our guys home.
Shouldn’t it the Syrians who are complaining? Oh yeah Syria asked the Russians into their country, it’s the US are the intruders. US has no legitimate reason to ask Russia to do anything in Syria. Bring US troops home.
What are you doing in Syria?
Wake me when one of these admin morons says something intelligent.

Orban and Trump would get along well.

AND
Yours Truly: You bet, “something doesn’t add up” here.
It wouldn’t surprise me if the media were eager to report on this to get people’s minds off of the Biden chronicles. It’s a scary situation where protocols are not being followed and public safety is at risk (the stuff of horror movies).
Love it!
Good answer. Launder the money in the USA. No more laundering overseas.
Not sure of the date on this, seems familiar, but seems timely too.
Well, the only reason the criminals running the U.S. were sending our money to Niger was to own and control the criminals running Niger.
The criminals who were running Niger just got what the criminal U.S. gov’t deserves, so there’s no reason for the criminal U.S. gov’t to send our money to Niger now.
Everybody wins.
The plot thickens…
Obama Spotted at Golf Course with Bandaged Fingers, Days After Mysterious Paddle Boarding Accident Claims the Life of His Personal Chef and Friend
Some possibilities:
● BO was the second paddleboarder. It was a tragic accident, there was nothing he could do, and he is being shielded by everyone.
● BO was the second paddleboarder and is guilty of murdering his chef.
● BO was not the paddleboarder and has injuries from some other cause.
I’ve written about shielding young people who were not at fault, like the Obama daughters (or even Barron Trump, as an example). I don’t share the same opinion about BO himself. If he was the second paddleboarder, he needs to come clean. He’s only making himself look suspicious as these additional facts are revealed.
Sounder how his other hand with the glove off looks like ?😳
It is supposed to read wonder not sounder
Monica killing it.
“Here he is grieving at the Church of the Sacred Fairway”. 
That hand looks pretty beat up halfway to his elbow. Struggle?
Curiouser and curiouser.
If the glove don’t fit, you must acquit.
Just waiting for the slow-speed highway chase with Reggie Love driving the Bronco.
Love is a many splitered thing…
Lol! And Lance Ito mugging for the media. That trial was ridiculous.
Daughters are adults. No shielding.
<18, seems the law shields standard practice. I guess.
A) there are no ‘tragic accidents’ while paddle boarding with Bathhouse Barry 😂
B) Bathhouse Barry can swim just fine (he spent a lot of time in bathhouses)
C) where was the secret criminal protection Praetorian Guard, and why didn’t they save Barry’s paramour, while witnessing a murder?
D) if it wasn’t a murder, if it was just a ‘tragic accident’, Bathhouse would have a bevy of Praetorian Guard accomplices to attest to his innocence and provide all the sordid details about how a down-on-his-luck sous chef drowned in 8 feet of water while paddle boarding with the Magic Kenyan at Hacienda Hussein on Martha’s Hideout.
REPORT: Biden Withholding Key Funding for Schools With Hunting and Archery Programs
Meanwhile…
Jazz Shaw of Hot Air notes that there is nothing in the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act that prohibits archery or hunting:
Perhaps all private schools should double down by increasing archery and fire arms training as well as home schoolers adding those to their curriculars if not already there along with small unit tactics and SERE training.
I don’t know anything about those groups, but I’m guessing it would be nearly impossible to get them to all dress alike.
“Blood Tribe”….
Hmmm. Wonder if they’re eventually going to go after those of us who are unvaxxed, perhaps by morphing “Blood Tribe” to “Pureblood(s)”…
Then add “climate change” to it, and start the social scoring madness…..
