I’m feeling much better today. I’m at 95%. Thanks again for all of your support, well wishes, and prayers. I’m so behind on a lot of things. I’ll get caught up and start releasing shit. A lot of shit. We are still in the calm. Get your shit together. The hell storm is on its way. We have to survive it to make it to the end. These reports and comms I release are just public confirmation for me to talk about certain things publicly. The end is not for everyone. So, whatever your belief system is. Hold on to it. None of my pill and intel drops have changed. The information contained therein is static. All truths are necessarily good truths. But it’s nevertheless the truth. You can take the blue pill and ignore some of it. But the red pill will always be there. Mental health is real and not a joke. When all truths are revealed, getting close to the end, some will not be able to bear it. It’s best now that you soften the blow. Get your houses in order, stocks, preps, and finances together to ride this next phase out. Take this time now to learn, and I mean unlearn, then relearn everything. Because you won’t have time when the storm comes. Why? You’ll be too busy focusing on surviving.

NATO was created in 1949 to stand up to the Soviet Union. If the West would just make peace with Russia, which Putin is willing to do, then there would be zero need for NATO. The only people who don’t want this, are NATO weapons manufacturers, and their bought politicians. NATO exists solely to enrich itself. Their business model is war, and our tax dollars are their life source. The best solution for humanity is to disband NATO, for Trump to make peace with Russia/China, then build a multipolar world, in which every country has a fair say. The days of the US/NATO waging war without consequence, must come to an end. Russia and China just want a seat at the table, and want the West to stop waging wars all over the globe for financial and geopolitical gain. They just want us to stop building our military bases around their civilizations. Peace is possible with diplomacy.

I want everyone to know who reads this, Barry McCaffrey is highly respected in the leftist neo-con warmongering mafia inside of the beltway’s military industrial complex who love perpetual war. His post shows the insanity we deal with when it comes to advice by certain elements of retired military officers. Nuclear war and nuclear attacks are not something we want on the table at all. The proactive offensive capabilities launched recently by the Ukraine are sheer madness. Instead of demanding peace and standing up for sanity, McCaffrey is stating the obvious for a nuclear counter strike as if this is going to solve the problems we face. God help us all and I pray that no one, and I mean absolutely no one, pays any attention to this too long in the tooth retired military officer. We have to cease and desist these missile attacks. WTH are they achieving? What are our goals and objectives? WTH are we doing? No one from this current administration has answered any of these questions. Congress, and @SpeakerJohnson please step in and stop this insanity! January 20th can’t get here fast enough.

Please review our HOST and site owner’s Guidelines for posting and discussion for this site. Wolf is kind enough to put up with *most* of us and our antics after thorough vetting. Violators of the baiting and deliberately attempting to divide the group rules WILL face consequences.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Company manners are appreciated. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog out discussions best saved for a wrestling mat. If, for some reason, this site is not available, head over to the UTree and visit the post at the top of the list or the closest rescue thread.
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.
THAT MEANS THAT ALL OF US HERE ARE ENTITLED TO OUR OPINIONS AND PREJUDICES, ETC., SO LONG AS THEY CAUSE NO PHYSICAL HARM TO OTHERS OR DOXX OUR FELLOW TREE DWELLERS.
All opinions here are valued for the diversity they bring to the issues, and the shaping of understanding regarding topics for which many of us do not have all information. Correcting the record on any one topic is appreciated.
Be careful in expressing thoughts as we would all like to think well of the rest of the group, and ill-thought out comments have a way of wrecking that for everyone.
Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
- No food fights
- No running with scissors
- If you bring snacks, be sure they are made with bacon
Auntie DePat’s requests as we are all supposedly adults and don’t just play them on TV like the body doubles pretending to be the squatter in chief:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.
The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.
Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.

Revelation 3:1-6, 14-22
1“And to the angel of the church in Sardis write: `The words of him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. “`I know your works; you have the name of being alive, and you are dead. 2Awake, and strengthen what remains and is on the point of death, for I have not found your works perfect in the sight of my God. 3Remember then what you received and heard; keep that, and repent. If you will not awake, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come upon you. 4Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy. 5He who conquers shall be clad thus in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life; I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels. 6He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
[ 7 And to the angel of the church of Philadelphia, write: These things saith the Holy One and the true one, he that hath the key of David; he that openeth, and no man shutteth; shutteth, and no man openeth: 8 I know thy works. Behold, I have given before thee a door opened, which no man can shut: because thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. 9 Behold, I will bring of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie. Behold, I will make them to come and adore before thy feet. And they shall know that I have loved thee. 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of the temptation, which shall come upon the whole world to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 12 He that shall overcome, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; and he shall go out no more; and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God, and my new name. 13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.]
14“And to the angel of the church in La-odice’a write: `The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God’s creation. 15“`I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot! 16So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth. 17For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing; not knowing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. 18Therefore I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may be rich, and white garments to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nakedness from being seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see. 19Those whom I love, I reprove and chasten; so be zealous and repent. 20Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. 21He who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I myself conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. 22He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'”

Hey Wolfie – why not put pics of national parks on a slideshow for Thursday headers?
If it’s not too much trouble, of course.
J Michael Waller:
No more umbilical cords.
Absolutely accurate state of the politics of America.
Uh-oh. I smell trouble.

Can you say – insurrection?
I know you can.
Good they become a magnet. Then Holman herds more illegals toward Denver and next cuts their Federal assistance. Denver screams no more, take them, take them. Holman pretends not to hear until it’s coming from a new city administration being run by Republicans.
Sweet
That baby race had me belly laughing 😂😂🤣
Great show, and very different from the one in September (even with the same setlist).
….and it didn’t rain!
Thank you, De Pat, for a thoughtful Thursday post.
Hope you had a good time at your concert 🙂
