Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.
AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And yes, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get through it!
We will always remember Wheatie,
Pray for Trump,
Yet have fun,
and HOLD ON when things get crazy!
We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:
Wheatie’s Rules:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:
“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:
- Our backup site, The Q Tree 579486807, https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/
- Our old alternative site, The U Tree, where civility is not a requirement
- Our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178
- Our various sister sites, listed in the Blogroll in the sidebar
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
Joe Biden didn’t win.
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:
ingluvies
noun
- a crop or craw of birds
- a dilation or pouch in the esophagus of certain animals that receives food prior to the main stomach, esp a bird’s craw, or the first stomach of a cow or other ruminating animal
- the widened portion of the esophagus of birds and lower animals
- a crop or pouch in the esophagus of many birds, in which food is stored or partially digested before passing to the stomach
Used in a sentence with bad American English and Russian accent
“Moose ingluvies, but squirrel not having!”
Ridiculous misleading example of usage generated by bad AI
In the Carnia region of Italy, children catch and eat ingluvies of the toxic Zygaena moths in early summer. (LINK: https://www.wordsense.eu/ingluvies/ – ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/dHtJY)

THE STUFF
This next video is not just for the geeks here, although – yeah – it’s mostly for them. It’s also for the musicians, and the curious.
Steve covered this before, so it should not be totally unfamiliar. Feel free to review:
16 – De Broglie, Schrödinger, and Heisenberg
You don’t have to understand the math, to follow along and understand why light and atoms end up being a lot like vibrating musical strings.
Basically, Erwin Schrödinger plugged a simple but weird equation by Louis de Broglie, which said that matter has a frequency just like light, into the existing wave equation, and he got a matter wave equation.
And all of THAT is revealed on the way to answering, what in the heck is an imaginary number doing in there?
You will likely need to watch it more than once.
Just sayin’!

From some of my recent deep dive for Wednesday’s Article:
LIMITS OF CONGRESSIONAL POWERS
A good student of constitutional law should be conversant not only with cases upholding certain powers of Congress, but also those describing the limits of Congressional and state powers. This file identifies many of those cases and provides links to some of these U.S. Supreme Court cases, making study easy.
(3) United States v. DeWitt, 76 U.S. (9 Wall.) 41, 45 (1870):Federal revenue act made it illegal to sell illuminating oil of certain flammability and defendant was indicted for violating this law in Detroit. Court held defendant could not be prosecuted:
See also Matter of Heff, 197 U.S. 488 (1905), overruled, United States v. Nice, 241 U.S. 591 (1916).Other authorities re absence of federal police power:
Slaughter House Cases, 83 U.S. 36, 63, 64 (1873):
See also John Woods & Sons v. Carl, 75 Ark. 328, 87 S.W. 621, 623 (1905), affirmed 27 S.Ct. 99: quoted Brown. See Southern Express Co. v. Whittle, 194 Ala. 406, 69 So.2d 652, 655 (1915).Shealey v. Southern Ry. Co., 127 S.C. 15, 120 S.E. 561, 562 (1924):
Today is the day that Donald John Trump, the 45th President of the United States of America, will be certified as the 47th President of the United States of America.
I hope so!

The Capitol is like a hydrant for swamp sludge.
It’s actually the highest point in D.C. The swamp that was drained is in Foggy Bottom, like where the tidal basin is.
And the Deep State Department.
Garrison missed the chance to have bubbles rising behind Jeffries’ behind…snicker…

I love him because he’s SMART. He knows how to fix the mess, and if he can get just a little cooperation, America will be GREAT AGAIN.

Excellent!!!
Had I been arrested, most likely if that nasty prosecutor Graves had gotten his wish to go after all the peaceful protesters who walked across Capitol property, I would likely have been one of the SEVERAL thousand that Trump would have pardoned!
Thank goodness you weren’t arrested and haven’t been in prison for the past four years!
Yeah, that would not have been fun!
BWAHAHA about Castro!
The one with the countries being sold on Amazon…😂
Only one “Canada” left; order now!
Yep. Once it’s sold, it’ll be 0 Canada 😆

Or for the Newfies and Youf up there, Nowt Canada 🙂
In all the best westerns (movies, not the hotels 😁 ) there is a reason why the good guys and the bad guys both like to sit with their back to the wall, and a clear view of the saloon doors.
There’s probably a similar reason why the saloon door itself wasn’t really a door at all, you could see over it and under it 🤣

Always my preferred way to be seated in any restaurant. Just saying….
In most rooms for me, including church 😉
Back against a solid wall. Learned that at an early age by being punched/slapped in the back of the head by big brother.
The reflex was so obvious in 5th grade that my parents were investigated for child abuse by my new school.
I’m so sorry for what you suffered from your brother but it appears God has used that abuse to hone you as a refined weapon for truth!
I do not regret my childhood at all. It made me what I am today.
Actually I consider myself to have been very lucky in my life. I am not rich in $$$ but I am rich in memories and abilities.
Amen & we are Mightily Blessed by you!!!
Those are movie saloon doors.
Real wild west saloon doors were like any other business’ doors.
Long Branch Saloon. Gunsmoke vintage.
Then why were they called Saloon doors?
Btw, since we live in a simulation, technically, the movie saloon doors are real doors… as far as we know 😂
Just researched this. The truth seems to be somewhere in between, but it’s very murky. There is agreement that external swinging double doors were not found in cold climates.
Double-swinging doors apparently go back to Victorian times, and are more useful for kitchen/butler entrance than for the front entrance to the establishment. Some sources, however, say they were popular in bars, taverns, grocery stores, etc., and did have some level of opening at top and bottom for smoke ventilation – but Hollywood made them ridiculously small for effect. The bigger story is that they were not the “real” doors when used on the front. Front doors were more like a barn door or doors, and opened up against the wall, while the swinging double doors (predecessor of the revolving door) allowed people carrying loads to enter and exit without using their hands. One recent brand of double-swinging door hinge was being sold in 1870. Another patent dates from the 1880s. An even more interesting thing is the ladies’ door!

Background: Bratt was accused of extortion in wake of Mar-a-Lago raid.
Bratt and five other federal prosecutors threatened Stanley Woodward, the lawyer who represented Walt Nauta, Trump’s former body man. “This is the guy who wanted to do a raid before they even had a subpoena out,’ he said of Bratt.
During a meeting, the federal prosecutors allegedly brought up a judgeship that Woodward had applied for, and suggested they sought to use the information as “extortion” leverage.
Additional allegations of prosecutorial misconduct against Jack Smith’s office include “manipulating evidence seized by the FBI during the raid of Mar-a-Lago,” and an attempt to impose an “unprecedented” and “excessive” prison sentence upon a defendant.

That’s the sound of a man
Workin’ on a chain…
Ga-aang 👍 😂
That is a ‘Nam combat boot! I have a whole case of them — Brand new.
sounds like there’s a story there 😉
They make great caving boots. My ex and I wore the same size so we bought a case in ~1970. I have not worn out all of them. I also managed to grab a couple pairs of WWII riding boots. They are WONDERFUL boots.
Awesome! Hubby & the kids periodically enjoy a local army surplus store for goodies 🙂
I wish we had some closer. The best one I found in NC is a good hour away in the middle of no where.
That’s a bummer 🙁 Ours is probably about 15 minutes away, depending on traffic & the time of day 🙂
I read your comments about the boots, & Wolf’s, to Hubby so maybe he’ll check to see if “Mom’s” combat boots work for him too! He does way more outdoor stuff than I do 🙂
Me and my buddies were big on ” ‘Nam boots ” too!
Hiking, bushwhacking, fishing, seining, camping – especially anything around water.
They were made for slogging thru mud and water and therefore were very popular with cavers. You would ruin a good pair of leather hiking boots in one trip, and sneakers meant you risked a twisted ankle. In the early 1970s those were the only other options since Cordura had not become popular for outdoor stuff until after 1977.
I suspected as much… 😉
I thought “your mother wears army boots” was supposed to be a thing, not “you wear army boots”.
Speaking of last minute arrangements, SOS Blinken is doing one last “diplomacy tour” overseas — possibly looking for someplace with no extradition.
Stinken Blinken is Odd…
And making sure his Laundered money is safe in a numbered Swiss Bank acct.

14 days, 10 hours, 53 minutes until our Once And Future President is restored to his rightful office. At which point, Mondays will no longer suck, by executive order.
Not that I’m counting, mind you.
Two weeks!
Indeed. Well, we have a possible hurdle tomorrow [my time] (Monday).
What’s the weather going to be like in DC on the 19th and 20th? I’m strongly re-considering attendance at the Inauguration, no matter what the weather.
Please be careful! I am still worried that there will be some kind of bullshit on that day, potentially foreign-actor.
Honestly, I wish Trump would just dispense with the formalities and get sworn in privately. I know it’s “tradition,” but what incoming President has survived two assassination attempts in the six months prior to his Presidency?
Thank you! I hear you. I will be careful if I go!
I think Trump is fearless – and frankly, that’s what we need!!!
Yes, he is. And we do need that. However, he (and we) must remember what we are up against at all times.
PURE EVIL! Entrenched centuries old EVIL.
I haven’t seen any forecasts yet for the 20th. I think the current round of snow is supposed to be over by then, but I’m not sure.
Weather.com goes out a fortnight. ht Scott. Learned a new word, again.

Fo[u]rt[een]night……. makes sense! 🤔
Now measure speeds in furlongs per fortnight.
Wow! The fact that the speed of light is basically unchanged in weirdness in furlongs per fortnight basically says “human scale” is way off from light scale.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFF_system
I was first introduced to furlongs per fortnight when I read a Murphy’s Law for engineers (heck, engineers discovered Murphy’s law) and one of the corollaries of Murphy’s law was that dimensions in a specification would be in the most inconvenient units possible, and gave “furlongs per fortnight” as an example. (And I’ve known since high school (at least) what a fortnight is…I had read just enough British fiction.)
I know what a fortnight is but how long is a furlong?
Doing genealogy research sometimes you run into property descriptions in chains & rods, iirc, which is very confusing, as are knots.
It’s either an eighth or a sixteenth of a mile (I think an eighth). I’m too lazy right now to look it up to confirm.
In fact the reason the mile is 5280 feet instead of 5000 is that Queen Elizabeth I wanted it to be a whole number of furlongs…IIRC. (She also took us mostly off the Troy system of weights, with the exception of precious metals; I can’t say for sure but I think she didn’t do them as was for fear of dorking up the monetary system.)
I bet you could put together another interesting post just focusing on weights & measures & their historical significance.
If we do absorb Canadia they can keep their bi-lingual Francophonics & mandatory metric system to themselves!
I wouldn’t want Quebec, for the same reason I really don’t want Puerto Rico.
The Western provinces and most of the Martimes don’t want to be bilingual. Ontario forces it on them. Quebec doesn’t want to be bilingual either; they went to be French only. The one province that’s fairly equally divided is New Brunswick (even their license plate is bilingual).
Fun bit of trivia — Santa Barbara, California, hired a passing ship captain to survey the old part of the city and put markers. After he collected his fee and left, they gradually noticed that the streets would sometimes not meet straight on at intersections.
Turns out, what he had used as his surveyor’s chain was a large strap of leather….which stretched every time it got wet and shrank when it dried.
Oh my that would cause just a couple of problems LOL
George Costanza’s shrinkage comes to mind for some reason…
Even though they’ve tried to smooth these out whenever they redo a road or as development happens, quite a few of these anomalies still exist. For example: intersection of Valerio Street and Chapala Street; wiggle in Figueroa between Chapala and De La Vina; multiple blocks of Laguna between Sola and Anapamu; and Santa Barbara x East De La Guerra. If you zoom in on an online map service, these should be visible.
…..and it all goes back to a fraudulent sea captain.
Another consequence of the American takeover was the creation of the street grid, which replaced the previous haphazard jumble of dwellings and irregular paths. Its execution, the disastrously bungled survey of 1851 by Salisbury Haley, is a notorious event in local history.
Haley’s survey chains were broken in places and held together with oxhide, a material that expanded on damp mornings and contracted in the afternoon sun; since his chains varied in length depending on the time of day he used them, most of his measurements were off, accumulating errors of as much as 45 feet (13.7 m) out of true by the time he had crossed the city. Haley had been ordered to create neat square city blocks exactly 450 feet (137 m) on a side: a subsequent corrective survey established that he had created blocks ranging from 450 to 464 feet (137 to 141 m) on a side.[29]
The lot misalignments and street grid problems caused by Haley persist to the present day. Kinks in Mission Street at De La Vina and De La Guerra at Santa Barbara Street are two of the awkward places well known to city commuters, which resulted from Haley’s unfortunate measurements. In addition, Haley decided to lay out the street grid at an angle of approximately 48 degrees from north, with State Street approximately midway between the Mesa and the Riviera, paralleling both hills, an orientation that confuses both residents and visitors.[30]
Downtown’s Haley Street, named after him, is ironically one of the streets that did not need a dog-leg to compensate for his variable-length chain.

fascinating!
In surveying India the Brits used “Indian yards.”
It gets worse, much worse, when you go places that were Spanish or French before they were English or American.
Take, for instance, the “vara”. This definition covers the Spanish versions — https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/vara — but there was also a French version.

An epic weekend. Major plumbing job, and it didn’t go well, at first, but is now (I hope) complete.
How many trips to the store?
Before? About 6. During, none, but one trip to a friend who solved the problem I was about to go to the store for.
That’s a pretty major plumbing job!
A regular-sized job takes 3 trips and no friends.
& lots of videos online…
The friend just gave me a socket that turned out to be useless, and something to seal union joints, which was far from useless. He didn’t actually do any of the work.
Alas, it ISN’T over…Jet pump is cavitating and It’s a cast-iron bitch to get going again when it does that.

^^^ DC Gulag should be permanently shutdown. Along with

AND for the J 6 committee members AND the Capitol Police Board and all the others involved, like Mitch the Bitch, Nasty the Pig, Pence the Turn Coat.
Leave them there in Jail for FOUR YEARS BEFORE their trials… 😡
You can have selected J 6ers run the place 😉
DC should have no prisons, no courts. It doesn’t deserve “home rule”. Have everything done by the states or by Congress itself.
So what happens if someone commits a murder in DC then?
It’s not part of any state, so who has jurisdiction?
Either Maryland or the state of the victim.

Just made the huge mistake of watching the much-celebrated “Conclave” & it is the most disgusting anti-Catholic film I have seen in a long time. Shame on Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci & John Lithgow for starring in it & shame on director Edward Berger (among others). “Spoiler:”
Show more
They make THE POPE INTERSEX! This is the big exciting twist at the end. I wish I had known so I wouldn’t have watched it. There are almost no redeeming characters in the movie – every cardinal is morally bankrupt/repulsive. The only exception of course is the intersex pope (who – surprise! – has female reproductive parts) & the cardinal who keeps her secret – bc of course that kind of Catholic secret-keeping must be lionized. I’m disgusted. What a thing to release to streaming just in time for Christmas. They would never do this to Muslims, but Christians/Catholics are always fair game to mock/belittle/smear.
NOTE BY WOLF – I have suppressed but included the “spoiler” stuff, which gets mentioned below anyway, but check out these “questions by Grok” – WTH!!
What specific scenes in ‘Conclave’ are considered anti-Catholic?
Why did the filmmakers choose an intersex Pope?
How does ‘Conclave’ affect public perception of Catholicism?
WOLF – now back to the series of tweets…..
Theophilus
@Theophilus33AD
I’m with @BishopBarron on this: “run away from it as fast as you can”. An attack on Catholicism isn’t unusual in all media, but Conclave is vile indeed. The Wokerati despise the Catholic Church and seek to undermine and poison others against Her. Sadly, many “believe” all they hear about the Church from these atheists and Marxists rather than discovering the true teachings, rich history and beauty of our religion. Pray for them, but avoid their propaganda like the plague.

It is my current practice to read reviews of ALL movies and if they have ANY wokey bullshit in them, they are a no watch.
For religious movies, I read religious reviewers. If there in non-Biblical, non-Scriptural bullshit in them, the are a NEVER watch.
I can highly recommend a great film I just watched called “Unsung Hero” to anyone. It is a true story, and a paean to the powers of motherhood. DH cried more than me.
Wow!!!
I quit watching TV in 1976 and have mostly not watched movies either. The last was Atlas Shrugged: Part 2 (2012) Hubby is a fan of Ayn Rand and went to her lectures at the Ford Hall Forum.
Before that was in the early 1990s at Science Fiction Conventions.
I read…
You didn’t watch Part 3???
Yes, we did watch part 3.
From the description of the movie, it looks like the writers synthesized the two conclaves of 1978 where there really was intrigue to get a liberal cardinal on the Papal Throne (Bellini). Remember, Pope John Paul I died of a heart attack just 34 days into office. Cardinal Siri of Florence was the traditionalist leading the votes. Well, he was the one who nominated both JPI and JPII, and threw his support behind them, hence their elections.
At the time, there was a HUGE investigation just completed on the freemasons in the Vatican that was awaiting action. (Never happened) Cardinal Gagnon could not get JPII to move on it. JPI tried, and died as a result of an argument with Cardinal Bellini when he wanted to send Bellini to be the Patriarch of Venice, and Bellini, who was Prefect of Bishops, wouldn’t go. It’s documented in Fr. Charles Murr’s book, Murder in the 33rd Degree.
Since then, both 2005 an 2013 were both Conclaves where the liberals sought to put one of their own on the throne, and in 2013 succeeded. Fr. Murr tells the story in a podcast I’ll have to find, but it is backed up by a book titled, The Saint Gallen Mafia, by Julia Meloni and another that’s sitting in my to be read pile. Fascinating reading.
I had never considered infiltration by masons as anything more than a Dan Brown storyline. Wow!
Oh, no. It’s real.
AMEN!
Thanks for the short history lesson.
VERY short for all the intrigue involved.
I’m sorry. It was Cardinal Sebastiano Baggio, not Bellini who was the candidate in question.

Hillary Clinton orchestrated the most destructive, un-American smear campaign in history, not only falsely accusing her opponent, Donald Trump, of being a Russian agent, but also fabricating evidence to trigger an FBI investigation. She’s the absolute last person on earth who should’ve been in the running for the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In fact, she should be the inaugural recipient of whatever the opposite of that medal would be.

EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE
Verse of the Day for Monday, January 6, 2025
✟
“When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.”
Psalms 27:8 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
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.

Forgiveness in the 21st Century
Mind splitter, code keeper, builder of the altars
Where will you go when the magic falters?
Soul snatcher, trespasser, thief of the will
Cold-hearted, calculated; gives me a chill
Spell caster, handler, false web weaver
Seems like your working up a real bad fever
Tavistock, CIA, MI6, FBI pick up sticks
All of you playing from the same bag of tricks
Who gave you the right; what makes you dare?
Do you have any doubts about what is fair?
Worker of iniquity, mind violator
What turned you into this stone-cold hater?
You herald human intellect, elevate the mind
Survival of the fittest, strong wins over kind
Compassion seen as weakness, absorbed into the hive
Mentality of evil; it eats you up alive!
The WILL is inviolate and should be sanctified
All your violations, abominations; will be tried;
Judged and convicted, by the rule of the Law
There is a Higher Power that watches over all
Reject the dark forces, renounce and repent
Turn your face away, before your life is spent
Chasing after evil, disguised as golden light
You can’t change its nature, try as you might
To continue to deny exactly what you see
Before your very eyes, the true reality
We have been told, they will prefer the lie
At times the vision weakens me; makes me cry
The evil slay the wicked, it’s written in the Book
Maybe you should check it out; take a closer look
Power and the pleasure; the riches you enjoy
Are fleeting, temporary, spoiled, rich man’s toys
It hasn’t been an easy path that leads me to today
Where I can truly pray for you, and mean it, when I say
Forgiveness, such a thorny rose, but one that can be known
From deep within the heart; through prayer, in tears, alone
D01: 04/10/2013

THANK YOU, PARA !!! 💙🧚🏻♀️💙
PS – Can you add a ‘context note’ to yesterday’s poem, please ?
A family was grieving the death of a father who shot himself in front of his wife – since I do not write prose condolences very well – I asked God to help me pen a poem to encourage and uplift – through much prayer – that poem was His answer to my prayer…
Thank you, Para, for your daily support – God Bless You Real Good !!!
Amen to the latter! And prayers for you, the deceased, and his wife and family.
Done! I added the note on both yesterday’s and on the Poetry Tree!
Anyone steadfast as yourself deserves what little support we can offer. Besides, I’d rather not chance Wheatie being upset with us for not making good use of her gift. Thank You Duchess! 😁

Yours Truly: Reuters is running this story also. Trudeau is expected to announce his resignation as early as today.
The story is all over everywhere. Hit Twitter yesterday. Believe it when you see it.

Yeah, this looks like one of those “pass the 48-hour smell test” things?
Zero Hedge is running with the story, also.

Great.
Now, incoming President Donald Trump gets to annex Canada, along with annexing Greenland?
Hubby was just talking to his cousin from Denmark. He thinks Trump buying Greenland is a great idea and so do a lot of his relatives and friends from the old country.
One of the cousins told his daughter she had relatives in the USA and give her a phone # to call. She came her as a teen as an au pair. She called and they invited her to dinner….
What they did not tell her was about 100 of her American relatives were ALSO invited. It was a fun event featuring Elk among other interesting food.
I think that elk is Hubby’s favorite game meat, but I’ve never had it…
I told the hostess I liked the elk. So we went home from the party with shopping bags full. We ate nothing but elk until we moved to NC a couple months later.
It really is good.
Hubby agrees! I had to confirm that he really liked elk since my memory is such crap LOL
Around here, elk is almost as common as beef!
That’s awesome!

Inside 😆
OK, Yours Truly has definitely decided that the 4 OR 5 COVID-19 “vaccine” injections that my late brother Sam took, starting in early 2021, were responsible for the MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairment) and hit him after he took the “booster” injection at Thanksgiving 2023. The ingredients and mechanisms of these damned injections literally swept away / undermined, all the hard work he had done to help himself grieve and process — in a healthy way — the traumatic death of his wife in the fall of 2018. He was doing OK with this — UNTIL he started taking these damned injections. Then, in the late spring of 2024, the MCI hit him. He lost interest in living and in taking care of himself. This eventually led to his catastrophic fall plus the Kennedy Terminal Ulcer on his back, plus the “sudden onset of dementia” — and then, to his death in October 2024.

Of course he can.
No President can unilaterally do anything of this magnitude. They can’t even declare war without the Congress. They can’t make law. They can “executive order,” but that lasts only as long as they do.
Just tell the oil companies to go drill the oil. Who’s going to stop them?

I had not watched this ceremony before. That was awesome.
I did watch it in 2017–there were halfhearted attempts to fubar it and I think if that had happened, We’d have ended up with Colin Powell as president. (If the house has to decide the election they choose from the top three and Powell had gotten three votes from Hitlary electors. Powell would likely have been acceptable to both RINOs and Ds.)
Was otherwise occupied in 2021.
This year it was a very orderly process with no glitches. Dems were, and should have been, on their best behavior after all they’ve said about “our democracy.”
Honestly, all Kamala has left is a tiny shred of dignity. If she gave that up today, she’d have nothing at all.
Where does she keep it? I’ve seen no sign of it during her entire tenure in elected office.
I don’t like her much, but I think she let it out today.

51st state? 10 new states make more sense since there are 10 provinces each with a governing body. It would also off set the likely hood we’d be adopting a mostly liberal state given population clusters like Quebec ,Montreal, Toronto etc… likely able to dominate the politics of just one state. Meanwhile Canada has a population of 40 million. Compared to our least populated state of Wyoming with just over 1/2 million it seems likey Canada would be divided up into more manageable chunks.
wonder what we would call Canadian bacon? Canada Dry?

Not a state or states.
A territory, like Puerto Rico.

Cancels parliament until March 24th? Freaking liberals up there are already jockeying for position. How about stick with the current schedule which had the Mr Turd facing a no confidence vote at the end of January.
What a putz he is, he couldn’t find his way out of a paper bag, let alone lead a country. Matter of fact he’d probably make a lousy dog catcher.

J6 stats here. I was not aware of the numbers. And it looks as if the Trump administration will inherit some pending cases.
DOJ: 200 Jan. 6 cases pending as Trump prepares to retake office
Every one of those “prosecutors” should lose his/her Bar license if further legal actions are taken. Any legal actions done now, in the face of imminent policy changes, is unethical and done in bad faith.
This is in addition to all of them being fired on 1/20/25.
Won’t stop the crims in DOJ. Last I looked, no accountability for DOJ / FIBS. They do whatever they want, with impunity.
Will be happy to feast on crow. Since Trump came down the escalator, DOJ / FIBS 100% run amok.
O ye of such little faith. 😉
True. Zero faith in DOJ / FIB.
Based on ~8 years of DOJ / FIB thuggery.
Hopefully Bondi / Patel can reverse this trend.
Along with special
persecutorsprosecutors.“….Prosecutors also 👉emphasized what they say is their restraint in deciding which defendants to charge. They’ve largely opted against charging people who trespassed on Capitol grounds but didn’t enter the building,….”😤
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Saw that line of bullshit. More DOJ lies. This shit has got to end.
Rubbing salt into the wound.
Right!
The restraint was in NOT indicting Fed assets, BLM, or Aunty Fa.
There were far too many of those in the peaceful crowd. People would have gotten very interested in why there would have been so much selectivity in going after SOME peaceful protesters but not others.
Seriously, that Graves guy wanted to go after all the people who assembled PEACEFULLY at the West wall! AS WE WERE TOLD TO DO!!! Which is IMO one reason why they were not aggressive in going after me. I was a WITNESS to the massive overflow of the designated TINY area and how we were TOLD to assemble at the West wall instead.
Cases still pending? I guess that would include this one.

Commala wore a pussy-bow blouse. I’ve never seen her wear one before, but that means nothing. But I suspect she chose it particularly for this day.
Nothing about Kakala signifies “power” or “strong women” in my mind.
Kakala is a pathetic piece of shit on a good day.
She is a whore that gives prostitutes a bad name.
I agree. The only reason I noticed the blouse is that it seemed like a more feminine look than she usually has. Then I remembered the p_ssy controversy with Trump. I think that might be why she wore that style today.
Yup an insult…. from a whore.
IDK about throughout history, but pretty sure the traitorous scarf lady wore her scarfs like that.

EVENING PRAYER
Dear Almighty Father,
Tonight, I am full of gratitude. The blessings you’ve showered upon me all day – they have been bountiful. “Give thanks in all circumstances” (1 Thessalonians 5:18), you’ve taught us, and I heed this wisdom.
Your love, Father, is limitless. Your compassion – it’s a river that never dries. Amidst life’s ebbs and flows, your love remains my anchor. Much like it says in Lamentations 3:22-23, your steadfast love never ceases.
Lord, your faithfulness is remarkable. Despite hunger gnawing at millions, you’ve filled my plate. It reminds me of your promise in Matthew 6:26. Just as you feed the birds, you’ve fed me, too.
Your protection, Father, is a fortress. Dangers lurk, yet they can’t reach me. Just as Psalm 91:14 assures us of your protection, I have felt your guarding presence.
You are Jehovah Rapha, our healer. My health, a testament to your divine healing power, reflects the promise of Exodus 15:26. You’ve mended me where I was broken.
In the face of tall challenges, you’ve granted me triumphs. I’ve witnessed the truth of Luke 1:37. Indeed, nothing is impossible for you, Lord.
Trials of the day have come, yet here I stand. Your strength, my Lord, has fueled my resilience. Like the apostle Paul says in Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through you who strengthens me.
Amidst distress, you’ve gifted me peace. My soul finds rest in you, mirroring the promise of Matthew 11:28. Come to you, I have, and found rest.
My financial woes, they’ve been swept away. Your provision, a reflection of Philippians 4:19, has shielded me from ruin.
In the Precious name of JESUS, we pray.
AMEN.

BRUTAL: GOP Lawmakers Give Humiliating Standing Ovation Interrupting Kamala Harris as She Reads Electoral Vote Totals and Confirms Her Own Loss, Kamala Looks Embarrassed (VIDEO)
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/01/brutal-gop-lawmakers-give-humiliating-standing-ovation-interrupting/
Those that participated in that action showed a complete lack of decorum and grace. By their action, they showed that they consider proper following of the constitution and the law are subservient to raw political power.
The equivalent to it is Pelosi ripping up Trump’s State of the Union speech.
I am ashamed of my fellow Republicans.
The elected politician, the lady, shook hands as required. He as a PRIVATE citizen had no such obligation.
Your equivalency example is not, equivalency.
Decorum in Congress is farcical.
Shake hands with that bitch, Kakala. Nope. She can go fuck herself.
I’ll stick with Integrity and Honesty.
Republicans are expected to play by the rules while the DEMON-RATS shit on them.
It is time to forget that. Besides what decorum? Not fighting duels?
February 24, 1838:
Decorum….
https://www.bostonmagazine.com/news/2018/05/24/tbt-caning-of-sumner/
That is an even better example:
“…on the Senate floor, the Massachusetts official was beaten by Rep. Preston Brooks of South Carolina.”
Broke his cane while beating Senator Sumner with it. I guess decorum was that he didn’t spear the Senator with the broken end.
“…Broke his cane while beating Senator S
umnerSchumer…”Wishful thinking.
Although some miss a telling detail — some people in the Senate chamber tried to restrain Brooks, while others called out, “hit him again!”
The underlying dispute was that Sumner gave a speech referring to Senator Butler of South Carolina, who was not in the chamber at the time of the speech, as taking “a mistress … who, though ugly to others, is always lovely to him; though polluted in the sight of the world, is chaste in his sight—I mean the harlot, Slavery,” according to Senate records.
Representative Brooks, Butler’s cousin, was at the Capitol. At the time, it was easy for Congressmen to visit the Senate chambers.
Senator Sumner was beaten so badly that he was laid up for two years, unable to visit the US Capitol. Nevertheless, the people of Massachusetts decided to retain him as their Senator.
The House debated whether to censure Representative Brooks but elected not to. Nevertheless, he resigned….and went home to South Carolina and died.
Ah the eloquence of yesteryear…sigh…
On this, friend, we shall not agree. Ever.
If they want to make a statement, they should do it in the lobby of the jail holding the J6ers. Or the courthouse where the J6 judicial thugs are.
My comment had nothing to do with shaking hands.
Correct. My bad.
The rest of my post stands, also correct.
Agree. On this, friend, we shall not agree. Ever.
IMO the GWP article is exaggerating the import of the moment. Yes, Commala got interrupted — by a spontaneous show of joy at the vote total showing that their candidate won. No doubt it was a relief to have the process over with and official after all the speculation about what might happen. No doubt it was cathartic to express happiness after all the Dem attacks, lies, attempted assassinations, cheating, etc. I don’t blame them. To characterize it as a purposeful humiliation of Commala is going too far, IMO.
I consider what Pelosi did to be the worst display I’ve ever seen in Congress. To tear up the speech of the president who just delivered it to the body you are standing before is such a show of disrespect that I don’t have adequate words.
I agree that it might not have happened in the way it was described. Your opinion seems much more reasonable.
👍🏼
Video speaks for itself.
After 4 years of a national hijacking – from one January 6th certification to the next one – said hijacking having taken place in that prior false certification – I can feel that moment of justice, frankly.
Bite-Me & the hoe were never anything but usurpers. The election of 2020 was a massive fraud and there wasn’t a quorum to certify on Jan 6th 2021, heck there wasn’t even 1/4 of the total reps & senators present who certified the election.
It was an IN YOUR FACE 🖕to the American people.
So why should they be shown any courtesy?
They should be shown the courtesy of a spiritual advisor before their quick legally correct execution for treason!

The Infamous State Funeral.
No state funeral has been scrutinized, analyzed, and combed over more than that of the late George Bush. When Donald Trump came onto the scene, he openly declared war against the establishment, and to their dismay, this meant every single former President was now in the crossfire. So much so, that they all gathered together and showed their true allegiances as what many now refer to as a uni party. Michelle Obama and Bush hugging and holding hands is not a sign of goodwill but rather reveals who they really are: A cabal as Trump so aptly called them.

Trudeau resigns, he can’t even walk down the street. The cure is spreading WW. Trump was certified today, next is the inauguration, will the [DS] try something?

Hi Wolf!
Sound familiar?
“The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit. A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
“
Sundance
Yes it does! A nice reminder!
Keep your headphones on – new messages are coming in soon!
Now that will be interesting.
Coming around full circle?
Wolf, loyalty is my middle name, and I am your foot soldier in the war. You gotta give me a hint so I can come down off of berserker mode.
Done!
I know I’m the cheap seats dweller, but aren’t those Wolf’s words not Sumdunce’s???
He’s quoting me, but for a reason, and I’m both flattered and pleased
onin other ways.With no attribution?
That’s part of the beauty of things that I don’t want to get into now.
I saw the quotation marks in the tweet but no attribution, which is pretty cheap when one is such a prolific writer as Sundance appears to be, imo…
He should have then added:
–WolfMoon
TheQTree.com
to drive the likeminded your way 😉 😉
edit he could have upped his credibility & humility if he also acknowledged that he kicked you & numerous likeminded free speech enthusiasts off his blog because he was too thin skinned & controlling to allow contrary thoughts free reign & discussion…& now he’s sorry for being such a totalitarian! LOL
A few points, and then I’m going to let peace flow back over this.
Attribution is something other people tell us we need, but I’ve actually written things (which very few people have read, but those who did were likely very interesting people) where I’ve questioned the idea that we have ownership over any ideas at all. I have funny ideas about information. Some of that thinking has bearing on things that are happening around me, and I struggle to understand why, but I accept it, and Trust In God.
My name is much less important than just the fact that SD quoted me, which makes me immensely happy. In fact, it’s even more than that.
I find it beautiful that Sundance would understand me to the point that he would quote me with only quotation marks but WITHOUT my name. It may not make sense to most people now, but it will makes sense after the inauguration, when I can explain a few more things.
To borrow from Q, “Think comms.”
There is more to that story that I want to save for later. It has to do with Wheatie and the inauguration. I don’t know everything about it yet – I just know that good things are happening. I ask that people accept this for now.
Now is our time to celebrate. Trump (in the past) and Musk (more recently) have said things relevant to this. Trump talked about greatness, and Musk talked about positivity. There is a solution where they are totally correct, and I can see it. We are not talking censorship – we are talking focus and direction. It’s time. This inauguration and the rally before it are times when we need to take our winnamins, as SD says!
This inauguration is going to be a big deal! 💖
“There is more to that story that I want to save for later.”
Might I suggest you draft a post where you can go into the details, when the time is right, & you give a nod back to this conversational thread for those of us who remain in the dark but trust you here 🙂
Ideas do have a life of their own. Kind of like music. Musicians influence each other is large & small ways. Oftentimes you can really tell the influence, like the Beatles on PFR, but many times it is more subtle. However there are limits as to how much music one is allowed to “steal” overtly without legal problems. I think that is rather similar to the realm of ideas, especially when you are talking straight up quoting/stealing of someone else’s words. You reference Oppenheimer in your standing quote on your website banner overlay & don’t just steal his very profound words…
My grandpa was furious that JFK is credited for the “ask not” quotation. According to Grandpa, whose initials ironically were JEK, the original quotation is from Oliver Wendell Holmes. How hard would it have been for JFK to have added that attribution before he uttered those famous words? It would have upped his credibility in the eyes of someone like my grandpa & would have set a better example for those who follow. We learn from each other & often stand on the shoulders of those who came before…
So maybe I’m being a hypocrite here, for I regularly reference Scripture in my speech/writing & only sometimes put it in quotation marks. I rarely provide a reference to the Bible passage for I rarely know exactly where to find the specific one without doing some digging for I’ve never been good at memorizing Where the words might be found but am usually pretty good at loosely grasping What the words say.
I guess that I assume that Believers & those with Biblical knowledge, like Steve, will “get” my allusion to The Book as much of that language & thinking has seeped into Western discourse for centuries, if not millennia 🙂
My opinion on attribution is about truth. It comes up frequently here and elsewhere on the internet when people misattribute quotations. That can change the entire gist of what someone thought and was saying, their message to the people of their times and to the world.
In formal writing, attribution is crucial. You don’t take someone’s words from the 1800s, change a few words to make it fit an entirely different discipline, and publish that quotation as new without giving credit to its originator. (This situation came up with a piece I was editing in the past.) Everyone who was familiar with the original quote would know that it had become bastardized without explanation.
It’s not so much a matter of people needing others to credit them; it’s about having respect for the thoughts and contributions of others. And bottom line, again: it’s about truth.
I didn’t go to the source of that SD passage, but it looks as if he at least placed it in quotation marks, indicating that those were the words of someone else. In that case, he was not plagiarizing you by trying to make it look as if those were his words. I understand there might be a reason for what he did and I hope we can have an explanation when appropriate. But (my feelings and opinion): “Don’t feed me BS. Don’t tell me something is one way when I know good and well it is not. In that regard, don’t tell me someone said something when they did not.” I don’t like being lied to, and I don’t like when people steal someone else’s work and words. I can only imagine that the desire and need for truth is universal.
Jupiter doesn’t move through the asteroid belt.
I think Wolf wrote that Before your science series here, in happy “ignorance” 😉 😉
Jupiter does fling things around (five of our probes, plus countless wandering asteroids and comets), but they have to come to Jupiter.
😍
Maybe there’s a lesson in that! 😉
Trump political universe is a whole ‘nuther country! 😂
Thank God…Literally!!!
Regarding little Castro… something that also got me thinking when I read the transcript: JUSTIN TRUDEAU: “I intend to resign as [Liberal] Party leader, as Prime Minister [of Canada] after the party selects its next leader.”
https://www.rebelnews.com/do_not_be_fooled_trudeau_has_not_resigned
At first glance, it looks like Justin Trudeau resigned this morning as prime minister. But if you listen carefully to what he said, he’ll resign only after the Liberal Party elects its new leader. And that could be many months in the future.
To make sure no-one kicks him out, he’s convinced the Governor General to suspend all Parliamentary business. He effectively escapes any scrutiny or accountability, as MPs won’t be able to vote him out on a non-confidence vote.
Trudeau going to hang on to power and all the perks of being prime minister as long as he can.
Even when Parliament comes back on March 24th, he didn’t say he’d resign then. He’s still probably scheming with the NDP to get them to prop him up, as they always do.
In other words, nothing has actually changed, other than Trudeau has managed to avoid taking responsibility, yet again. In his self-serving speech today, he didn’t take any responsibility. He blamed “internal battles” in his own party. He thinks he’s done nothing wrong — ever.

Thank you for this. Correct — Trudeau “intends” to resign, but only ** after ** a new Prime Minister is ready to assume office. Meanwhile, Trudeau does what one would expect a psychopathic narcissist to do — blame everyone and everything else for their own mistakes and behavior.
By the way, I wanted to thank you for your opening post last Friday. I had personally known some people who suffered from sudden and unexpected deaths and then some that were affected by those deaths that passed away a few months later. Of course some of the former never recognized as having relation to the death shot.

You are very kind. I’m sorry to hear of these losses. Sending Deep Comfort to you.
The tricky communist scum is behaving like tricky communist scum!
Lawyers.
Hopefully Trump can add some pressure for Canada to jettison the fool. Meanwhile I’d be watching for Biden to toss some kind of lifesaver to the Turd in the form of empty promises which Trump will be forced to snatch back.
Words to live by…..

“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more. Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it. Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn. The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity. Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later. Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit. A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives. I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Don’t be mad – there’s a reason he’s doing that.
Stuff is happening.
I called him out on it on Twitter.
Should I not have? Should I delete it? WHAT is happening?
I’d delete it. Explanation coming.
Ok.
Can you get the high-encryption Gab running?
Maybe? I can try.
Try that one first. If it fails, we can use the regular.
I did try. I messaged you on plain old Gab.
Done!
It’s not just the chats, right? I have to go somewhere else?
chat.gab.com
That one is more secure. If we can’t get it working, just regular gab chat is OK.
Are you two in cahoots? Whatever a cahoots is.
Well you did ask…
Thanks!
My curiosity bone got to me. 😋
I grew up with that term so it is much older than 2000. See my reply to Aubergine.

Here’s a fun, informative graphic from one of the replies there:

The discussion shows that nailing down the origin & meaning of words & phrases is just a bit squishy. Intriguing mysteries!
Interesting. It’s a bastardized Spanish word. There are a lot of those in “Wild West” cowboy lingo.
Explanation only to Aubergine? Or can you let us in on whatever is going on?
The TL;DR is that Sundance’s quoting of me is very well-intended, but I am not fully ready to state publicly how I know that, because it means revealing other things that I’m hesitant to talk about until after the inauguration. I know that sounds mysterious, but it has to do with some things that go back to the 2018-2019 timeframe. It’s all very good stuff. I was able to tell Aubergine just a bit more on Gab, so that she could know for sure that SD was well-intended, even though I could not tell her everything.
There are good things happening. I know that for a fact!
We should just state outright that you have to manage me a little bit sometimes, as I tend to explode and do dumb shit that might cause problems. Lol, hillbilly temperament strikes again!
I should come with a warning label.
bwah ha ha
But then you get those secret decoder-ring sidebar conversations that inquiring minds crave the details of!!!
LOL!!!
Maybe a small one. Your avatar is good enough! 😂
This should perhaps be a companion story.
Former Trump NSC Senior Staffer Warns of Dangerous Move Being Made that Will Undermine President Trump in His Second TermJim Hoft Jan. 5, 2025 6:00 pm 800 Comments
It’s nothing new. It’s essentially say “Personnel is Policy” and that some of Trump’s choices might not being doing a deep and thorough look at the people they are meaning to retain to keep their departments functioning. The normal “fire them all” is likely not a full option as one of the things the new department head must do is hold onto subject matter experts, which means institutional knowledge. All though the talk is NSC, it will be the same in all departments. I’m wondering if he’s not most worried about Department of State holding onto the saboteurs since Rubio is an obvious weak link MAGA. Regardless each of Trumps picks is going to have to do the hard work of looking several echelons down and pull up the right people.
It’s always something.
Hopefully a lot of whistleblowers will be available to help.
Also remember this?:
White House Aide’s Plan to Stop Leaks: Spy on His Co-Workers
https://www.thedailybeast.com/white-house-aides-plan-to-stop-leaks-spy-on-his-co-workers
Everyone of them they can ID would be a great help. If they can’t fire them, then demote them and put people over them that are loyal and can keep an eye on trouble makers. Perhaps stream line policy to circumvent their authority so they become a simple conduit and not a decision maker.
I think the “you can not fire them” crap needs to go to the Supreme Court. They are part of the EXECUTIVE branch and SERVE the President PERIOD. Congress should have ZERO to do with it.
I’d go much, much, much farther. If you claim to be part of the US Government and set yourself above the Constitution, you should be summarily executed.
Ok, I’m off the ledge. Not mad anymore.
Night all. I’m off to bed.
Great conversation! I replied to SD as well!

I saw your reply on nitter! Maybe they aren’t suppressing you as much 🙂
Good!!!
Very!!!
Patrick Byrne got a hold of the explosive testimony about machine vulnerability that was suppressed by Judge Totenberg.
Here is a threadreader version of Byrne’s long thread on it.
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1876226101720371276.html
Here is the initial tweet.
Patrick Byrne
@PatrickByrne
In 2018 Professor Halderman kicked things off in a federal court (Georgia) with an explosive 25k-word (sealed) affidavit. In sum: “the machines are shite”.
Judge Totenberg still refuses to unseal it.
So I am unsealing it myself. National Security etc.

Not a real surprise.
The Malware seems to be newer info. Reinfecting other machines.
Yes – the quality, reliability and undetectability of the malware makes electronic voting and tabulation into unacceptable risks.
if that is the case, this story is even wilder, no?
Yeah, it’s a big deal! Frankly, I don’t even trust the machines that print out your choices and then they get read by a scanner. Demmunists will always try to find a way to cheat them.
Two election cycles ago, after I was introduced to my fake registration, I corrected that when walking in, and was then given a receipt for a printed-out ballot.
When I looked it over, it was not from the zip code I live in.
There were two judges absent and one initiative missing.
The only reason I realized the ballot was wrong was because I had looked up the sample ballot online prior to early voting.
Massive screw up! Incompetence?
YIKES!!!
How many did they do that to, who did not realize?
“Incompetence?”
Deliberate 😡
They will make your ballot say whatever they want it to say!
PS, I was very vocal in the room, demanded that my ballot be shredded, corrected and reprinted.
And the polling ladies were apoplectic. Very apologetic. They knew they had really screwed up.
I think keeping a copy of the fraudulent ballot, writing “VOID” over the top of it, & having it signed by the election workers who witnessed this event could have provided some type of evidence for a legal dispute or at least a public outing of the issues represented by your personal experience! WOW 😡
So, was Malware created to exponentially blossom the percentages of stealing? I am aware of 6% max in the machines. Supplemented by paper fake ballots.
Maybe there are larger results?
I think some very bad stuff has happened.
Virus in 1,000’s of other machines, in one instant? No flipping footprint except Malware?
That would seem like a universal constant. Can you narrow that down a bit?
Ha, I woke up to read the rest of “today’s” comments, saw it was at “400” so threw on a Leon for fun…whoops, great minds (or mindlessness) & all 😉 😉
I jumped the gun on adding the King before scrolling down to see Cthulhu beat me to it. Steve will Love duplicate participation trophies surely 😉
