Dear MAGA: 20190227 Open Topic

This WINNING WEDNESDAY open thread is 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 world.

You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on.

Free Speech is practiced here. ENJOY IT. Use it or lose it.

Keep it civil. They tried to FORCE fake Orwellian civility on us. In response, we CHOOSE true civility to defend our precious FREEDOM from THEM.

Our rules began with the civility of the Old Treehouse, later to become the Wolverinian Empire, and one might say that we have RESTORED THE OLD REPUBLIC – the early high-interaction model of the Treehouse – except of course that Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged, and speech is considerably freer in other ways. Please feel free to argue and disagree with the board owner, as nicely as possible.

Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here in the January 1st open thread. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven.

Remember – your greatest gift to President Trump is FIVE WORDS:

I AM PRAYING FOR YOU.

Also consider The Non-Amended Wheatie’s Rules:

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

The rule against shooting at the nukes has ANOTHER evening off.


Today’s daily thread will be used to catch up on Q posts.

The Armor of God
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

Notice the weird out-of-order phenomenon – same as last time.

What follows is one of the best descriptions of the communist media’s “nickeling and diming” that keeps their sad FAKE COMPETITIVENESS in play. Donald Trump Jr. just NAILS the way they…..

FAKE IT TO MAKE IT.

In my opinion, the MSM and Democrats are now nothing but a CHICOM and RUCOM (remember – the communists operate FREELY in Russia) beachhead in America. They PRETEND to be what they are, and they have pretended since Stalin landed them in our media.

The SoCom Left are fascists!
They are oppressors.
They are actively suppressing any opposing views!
This is the textbook definition of fascism.
Thanks for the great new Open Thread, Commander Wolfie!
And with Q posts, too!
😀
DiFi must have something very juicy on Murkowski.
I wonder what it could be?

wheatietoo

And that’s a great clip of Don Jr. with Tucker Carlson!
So much truth packed into those few minutes.

daughnworks247

Hehe, Wolfie, I’m thinking the Trump family didn’t mince words, whaddaya think?

phoenixRising

If Murkowski had two grey cells she would have figured out DiFi is a crook… and put leverage on HER…

Charlie

Murkowski IS the get-away driver and the commie crooks are trying to keep her mouth shut.
She was having fun with her commie buddies until the car got rolled. She wants out but nicely.

wheatietoo

Both communism and socialism, use fascism on a regular basis.
SoComs survive by the complete suppression of any opposing views.
It is standard operation procedure.
Fascism = Forced Unity.

“We will not be accepting this condition.”
No. We will not. Not ever. There are things worth dying for. (Although I hope that won’t be necessary.)

GA/FL

Remember – you can see Russia from Alaska.
Palin told us that a long time ago.
Palin has also long known – the Murkowskis are crooked as all get out!

Deplorable Patriot

Palin did not say that she could see Alaska from her house. The chick on Saturday Night Live portraying her did.

GA/FL

Whether or not Palin said it, it’s true! – On a clear day, from the far north eastern Alaskan islands, you can actually see a Russian far western island.
https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/alaska/where-you-can-see-russia-from-ak/
https://www.cntraveler.com/story/yes-you-can-actually-see-russia-from-alaska

GA/FL

To clear it up:
“The basis for the line was Governor Palin’s 11 September 2008 appearance on ABC News, her first major interview after being tapped as the vice-presidential nominee. During that appearance, interviewer Charles Gibson asked her what insight she had gained from living so close to Russia, and she responded: “They’re our next-door neighbors, and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska”:

For retribution, men will make it quick and painless. Women will take their time and torture a victim. They will plot and plan, scheme and go back again. Our CIA head, Gina Haspel, scares the heck out of me.

Yep, women are cats; they toy with their prey before they kill and eat them.

We had a trade deficit with Vietnam.

So…I guess these ^^pics^^ are what Q was referring to, as “originals”?

wheatietoo

I’m thinking “originals” = pics taken by Q or the Q-team.
The Anons are interested in the “checkered shirt holding phone in last pic”.
They’re studying the reflection.

Sylvia Avery

Ah, so! Thank you!

Gil

So are they from anon THERE or faked to be originals?

wheatietoo

Not fakes…no no.
Looks like those ‘originals’ were posted by another member of the Q-team, who didn’t use the proper trip code.
Sort of an ‘oops’.
But they’re travelling, in a foreign country…a communist country, that has a strangle-hold on the comms there.
I figure the Q-team is bouncing their signals through alternate comms.
Probably pretty complicated.

Test 15

daughnworks247

Good point, Wheatie, that explains all the “test” posts.

daughnworks247

There were pics shown on Laura Ingraham. Ed Henry is the one who said he “got the pics from inside the hotel”. Anons noticed they were the same which were posted, thus had to come from the Q team and they were originals.
Not sure about a guy in a checked shirt. I defer.

daughnworks247

The red ginger flowers are gorgeous and exotic but the arrangement needs more filler. Too sparse.

wheatietoo

The arrangement might be ‘sparse’ for security reasons…so that it can be seen through.
😉

bflyjesusgrl

Lady Di, I swear it’s like you’re reading my mind! I’m a flower freak and was just staring at the beautiful red ginger. Zoomed in looking for Bird of Paradise, since they’re both tropical and are usually together in exotic arrangements, but no, no such luck. They definitely need to add MOAR flowers 💐 🌺 🌸

daughnworks247

IKR, I’m drooling over the flowers.

bflyjesusgrl

Oh me too. My ex used to send me exotics for bday, vday, etc., cause those were my favs. I actually planted ginger in my backyard, it never bloomed, multiplied like crazy, and was a nightmare PITA to dig up. I do have BofP in front bed and surprising to me it has more blooms in colder weather than warm. Strange for a tropical, but still beautiful😃

daughnworks247

And check out the slipcovers on the chairs, did anyone iron them?
And they’re not properly hemmed. Trip hazard.
Complete fail.
I would have rejected, but we have more women in heels at our house.

bflyjesusgrl

The best place I ever saw the tropicals was at a hotel in Guadalajara. They’re outdoor patio garden had every kind, color, and size of growing and blooming flowers. Ginger, cannas, calas, BoP, Even orchids in the ground! It was soo beautiful. Not enough humidity in Houston to grow flowers like that!

Someone is in deep doo-doo ….. they/he/she will be found and .. BOOM 💥‼️ … 👇🏻
“Look at that picture on the right. I got this exclusively from a source inside the hotel”. …. Ed Henry Fox News
It may be considered a security breach as no journalists were allowed inside the hotel .. Eddie may have compromised a security situation … tsk-tsk … 😑 …

Pres Trump is staying at a different hotel…the Marriott, I think.
It was the *other* hotel where the journalists got tossed — because Kim is staying there too, and he didn’t want them there.

Here’s a screencap of that reflection of an ‘arm’:comment image
.
I can’t really make out very much there, though.

Pat Frederick

doesn’t look like a checkered shirt to me–if you look, whatever “it” is continues across the back of the dining chair…

Aubergine

Yes, I agree. I don’t think it is a person. Not sure what it is, though.

bflyjesusgrl

There’s a man leaning forward away from dining table, he’s wearing a shirt with blue/white stripes on the top half and blue/white checkers on the bottom half. His shirt is reflected onto the chair behind him through glass doors. It looks upside down in reflection?? There is a man standing on stripe/checker man’s left side facing dining room with his arm outstretched towards table. You can’t tell if anything’s in his hand because it blends into the glass and gets cut off. The idea that maybe he’s holding a phone can’t be validated because the shape at the end of the arm actually comes from the tree branches outside across the street.

sallyal

This looks to me like somebody’s back. He is leaning way over and we are seeing the backside of the chair. IMHO.

wheatietoo

Ed Henry’s pic is from the ‘other side’ of the flower vase:comment imagecomment image

A Fortiori

I’m thinking this Derek Wallbank dude conducted some surveillance on the hotel, and posted his pictures on twitter so that his co-conspirators could use them in an assassination attempt on PDJT. His story about “finding” an unguarded door doesn’t add up; someone arranged for the door to be unguarded.
NSA noticed the pictures after Wallbank posted them on twitter, identified Wallbank, and pulled the pictures off his phone. This is how the “originals” were posted. I presume NSA was also the source for Ed Henry, and that the good guys decided to make this public to let us know about the ongoing treasonous activity by the press.

A Fortiori

And there is more. After the Q drop incorporating his pictures, the guy tweets that people using his pictures should enter into licensing arrangements with Bloomberg and attribute the pictures to him. Then, after they move the dinner because of his spying, he tweets two separate comments on the new venue and table arrangements.
This guy seriously needs to be taken down a notch (if not arrested and tried in a military tribunal).

Sylvia Avery

Good exchange between Lou Dobbs and Joe deGenova last night. Joe is a believer that AG Barr is going to clean up the mess. His opinions of that Liddle Schitt and Chris Wray were interesting, also.

bflyjesusgrl

He called Wray a game show host, LOL 😂. Wray needs to be replaced, he doesn’t have what it takes to straighten out the dept. Bias training will not fix the rot, it must be cut out.

Aubergine

I think he’s a game show host a la Bob Barker.
If you ever watched ole Bob, he ran The Price is Right like a congenial drill sergeant, if there is such a thing! Smiled the whole time, but man, he was the boss. Who could dislike him? But it was HIS show, and there was no doubt about it.
I’m with you on this one, Wolf. Wray is doing the job, just not the way some people want to see it done.

Sylvia Avery

LOL, yeah he went off on Wray! I wish I could recall who said it, now, but I heard someone within the last several days talk about Wray and feeling he had been going along quietly doing a good job of cleaning house and setting things to rights at the FBI.
That has sure not been my impression, so it kind of stopped me in my tracks to hear this opinion, esp. because whoever it was that said this was a pretty serious and reasonable person.
BUT Joe deG is hard to beat, so not knowing anything else I’d have to say I have more confidence in Joe’s opinion.

Define “peace”.
Is peace the absence of war/violence, or is peace the presence of freedom and human flourishing?
If you just want “peace” as in non-violence then put up the white flag early and often.
Too bad projecting weakness doesn’t work!

I’m on team POTUS! He’s made more progress in 2 short years than the screaming hyena morons have in 60!!

President Trump will deliver a series of home runs while in Vietnam. The press of course will minimize them and never repeat the wins in subsequent reports, nor compile the wins from the Vietnam visit.
President Trump will have wins with NK, which the media and politicos will criticize.
Amazing, President Trump has succeeded greatly on the Korean Peninsula issues where no other President in ~65 has. If it takes a few years to resolve the nuke issue, personally don’t care. The problem is getting resolved. What is not to like?
Looking forward to Barr unloading on criminals in DOJ, FBI, IC, Hildabeast and her crew, hussein and his crew… Some of that, or much of that may have to wait until Mueller submits his report. Barr is probably pushing for the Mueller report.

BREAKING NEWS: Indian military confirm two of their military jets have been shot down by Pakistani forces in its airspace – RT
10:34 PM – 26 Feb 2019

wheatietoo

This is not good.
But does…”its airspace”…mean Pakistani airspace, or Indian airspace?

wheatietoo

Ah…they’ve been fighting over that area for a long time.
The ChiComs have been getting buddy-buddy with Pakistan lately, too.

bflyjesusgrl

Oh yeah, Chicoms have been pouring money into Pakistan, also extending OBOR project.

Kalbo

Yep. An old conflict. Not going to get resolved in my lifetime. IMHO, sort of like the endless ME wars between themselves.
ChiComs always looking for leverage.
President Trump canceling or at least delaying the billion we gave Pakistan each year. Pushing Pakistan to assist with Taliban.
Also President Trump embracing India pisses the Pakistanis off.
I’m good with all of President Trump’s actions there. All part of his global MAGA strategy.

Cuppa Covfefe

Somehow I smell deep state invovlement here – either a distraction, or an attempt at leverage via proxy…

Kalbo

CIA involvement is always a possibility. As evil as they are, a probability?

wheatietoo

I remember an issue of the National Geographic, decades ago…I think back in the 80’s…that showed some Japanese young people who were much taller than their parents.
These were Japanese who worked on their cattle farms.
They had grown up on a diet that was rich in beef and dairy products.
At that time, beef and dairy products were still very very expensive.
Only the more affluent could afford them…unless they worked on the cattle farms.
Seeing the short Viet Namese people in these clips from Hanoi brought back memories of that NatGeo issue.
I think there are other examples of ‘tallness’ in people who have a diet rich in beef & dairy…like the Massai tribe in Africa, as well as other tribes who have had cattle for generations.
Maybe this is why the SoComs like Occasional Cortex want to get rid of cows?
They want to make us weaker and shorter?

wheatietoo

Yes, and my own family tree is a pretty good example.
I come from farming families on both sides…and each generation was taller than their parents.
Lot’s of beef and dairy — my grandmother even made beef breakfast sausage.
Burgers, meatloaf, steak and big glasses of milk with every meal…refills for desert, even with ice cream.
Pork and chicken were for special occasions.
Heheh.

Gail Combs

SEE: Role of red meat in the diet for children and adolescents
The article is short but worth reading since it talks about brain development of the fetus and mom’s nutrition

…. SUMMARY
Meat plays a central role in the diet, providing a significant contribution to the intakes of 10 key nutrients: energy, protein, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, iron and zinc. In young children, an over-dependence on milk may put young children at increased risk of poor iron status, owing to its displacement of iron-rich or iron-enhancing foods from the diet. This risk becomes nonsignificant when moderate to high amounts of iron-rich or iron-enhancing foods (e.g. meat and fruit, respectively) are also consumed. A study performed on infants in the UK has shown that the addition of meat powder to a weaning food has a marked enhancing effect on the absorption of iron, (38) which reinforces the fact that lean red meat is not only an appropriate weaning food but should be considered an essential food during the critical stages of brain development Dietary diversification involves promotion of a diet with a wider variety of naturally iron-containing foods, especially red meat, poultry and fish. These foods have a high content of highly bioavailable haem iron, and thus are most appropriate for infants and children on weaning. Despite their widespread availability, foods from this group are not always used or may be diluted before use (e.g. meat is rich in iron but meat broth is not). Given the information above, however, it is reasonable to argue that meat is a core food in the diet for children and adolescents because it provides significant amounts of essential micronutrients.

Gail Combs

Of Interest, especially for those of us who are older: L-carnitine

….L-carnitine is used for conditions of the heart and blood vessels including heart-related chest pain, congestive heart failure (CHF), heart complications of a disease called diphtheria, heart attack, leg pain caused by circulation problems (intermittent claudication), and high cholesterol.
Some people use L-carnitine for muscle disorders associated with certain AIDS medications, difficulty fathering a child (male infertility), a brain development disorder called Rett syndrome, anorexia, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes, overactive thyroid, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), leg ulcers, Lyme disease, and to improve athletic performance and endurance.
The body can convert L-carnitine to other amino acids called acetyl-L-carnitine and propionyl-L-carnitine. But, no one knows whether the benefits of carnitines are interchangeable. Until more is known, don’t substitute one form of carnitine for another.
How does it work?
L-carnitine helps the body produce energy. It is important for heart and brain function, muscle movement, and many other body processes.
https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1026/l-carnitine

2017 — More indepth info: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/265761.php
2018 — “People with depression have low blood levels of a substance called acetyl-L-carnitine, according to a Stanford University School of Medicine….”

Species and muscle differences in L-carnitine levels in skeletal muscles based on a new simple assay.

Author information
Abstract
We have adapted the enzymatic method [Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications 176 (3) (1991) 1617] for the safe and rapid assay of L-carnitine (L-CA) in skeletal muscle using a microplate reader. The concentration of L-CA in fresh semitendinosus muscle from
broiler chicken, 0.69
pig, 1.09
beef cattle, 1.86
deer, 3.57 to 4.57
horse 4.95
goat muscle 11.36
and μmol/g wet weight, respectively. The animals which had higher concentration of L-CA, also had the highest amounts of myoglobin as an index to the redness of the muscle. Furthermore, we investigated this relationship between white muscle, M. pectoralis profundus, and red muscle, M. soleus, in laying hens. The L-CA and myoglobin concentration in red muscle were significantly higher than those in white muscle (p<0.01). These findings suggest that L-CA concentration in muscle is related to oxygen metabolism and to myofiber types.

Much of the ‘red meat bad-cholesterol’ hysteria was propagated by one Dr. Ancel Keyes back in the 1950-1960’s. This led to the low-fat diet…which also coincides with the explosion of heart disease and diabetes and the current ‘obesity’ epidemic. The Ancel Keyes episode back then is similar to the climate change hysteria of today; i.e. deniers of Keyes’ theory of red meat leads=high cholesterol were shunned and denied grants, and ostracized from participating in various forums, boondoggles paid for by Big Sugar/Carb cartels.
Human body processes fat and protein much differently that carbs and sugars. I try to educate my family on this by showing a very simple comparison; next time at the grocery store, go to the dairy section and compare the nutrition label of a half and half product, low fat vs regular. The low fat has little fat and gobs of carbs and sugars….and they can’t figure out why obesity and diabetes are at a all time high.
I haven’t touched low fat products for many years…fat fills you up, therefore eat less! Carbs/sugars do the opposite.

Tonawanda

Very interesting!

Steve in Lewes

My father died at age 34 from a heart attack when I was 10. For most of my life I was led to believe it was arteriosclerosis (clogged arteries/high cholesterol); it was a failed heart valve damaged when as a young 10 yo he came down with rheumatic fever. So all my life I followed the low fat diet because that’s what the all knowing medical field told me I had to due because of family history. I was not obese, weighed the same at 50 as I did from HS/College 185. I was active, exercised 5 days per week. Had a yearly physical, bam ! had to have quadruple bypass surgery. Ain’t that a kick in the ass!
Many years ago, I was seeing my son who is a personal trainer. He told me to get off some of the meds I was taking especially cholesterol meds….bad ju-ju ! He told me about a couple books to read by Gary Taubes; “Good Calories, Bad calories”. and another. Also. a Nina Teicholz; “The BIg Fat Surprise”.
Well, I stopped all carbs, sugar, pasta, breads, processed schitt and went eggs, bacon, red meat chicken fish and veggies like asparagus, spinach, kale, carrots (yuke), peas, limas. My cholesterol went way down, stopped taking my cholesterol meds, and my weight has been around 166-167 lbs since about 3 months after my diet change.
A new documentary is coming out this year with Taubes, Teicholz, and others on the subject. A link to
the trailer is below. Like others have done, paste the link but make sure you remove the leading *.

Gail, I put a comment in this thread as a supplement to yours. Anthropological research on the topic is very interesting.

Sylvia Avery

Most definitely. I think the average height of a North Korean is like 5’4″. Poor diets, malnutrition. Very sad.

Kalbo

Yes, South Koreans much taller. Generally from the same stock. Nutritious diets the difference.
With President Trump working the Korean Peninsula issues, the NKs have a great future. Famines will be a nightmare of their past. Economies thrive.
Actually believe President Trump will pull this off. Also believe Chairman wants to realize “real” greatness with his people, peace, economic prosperity…
Many things I am hopeful for. Quite optimistic for the Korean Peninsula.
Have not always been a glass is half full, on the sunrise side of the mountain kind of guy. I am now.
President Trump has shown me (us?) the light and the way ahead.

para59r

Good idea. We should infiltrate online cook books and recipes with conservative menu’s for growing strong healthy conservative teens and young adults. Then slip in menus with liberals in mind that sport soy and other non meat and non dairy products. Hopefully they won’t catch on for years and years and we can grow why they shrink. 😎

wheatietoo

Sounds like a good plan! 😆

Gail Combs

Soy and GRAIN products.

wheatietoo

Yep, sounds like the perfect diet for being passive and easily led.

Gail Combs

AND depressed. See my L-carnitine post above.

daughnworks247

I kept feeding my son Ovaltine, hoping for 6’3″ but again, 6’2″.
Every man in the family is 6’2″. Every woman is 5’8″. And the men…. it’s weird – same shirt size, shoe size, coat size, makes family traveling so much easier.
We’re in beef/dairy country.
Sometimes, I know the name of the cow I had for dinner.

Charlie

Bessie? Never get friendly with the victim. LOL….
You don’t name the chickens too? Laughing.

daughnworks247

Charlie, I have a great story about chickens, for a later day. I couldn’t eat the ones I raised.

Tonawanda

Look forward to the chicken story!

daughnworks247

Oh Tonawanda, I was so naive, so metro as opposed to country smart. I had visions of grandeur.

Tonawanda

I have already read, watched and loved The Egg and I, so your story is highly anticipated!

I tried calling you. I think your phone is off the hook. Call me.

Cuppa Covfefe

Years ago a friend and I used to trade calendars. One year, I got a “COWLENDAR” with all sorts of cowny jokes (as it were). One shows a mother cow, relaxing in the recovery room, surrounded by her cow friends, holding her newborn calf.
One of the cows says, “So cute, and only a quarter pound… what did you name her?”
The momma replies, “Patty”…

Deplorable Patriot

Just go paleo. Trust me. Your body will change for the better.

Deplorable Patriot

Gail posted some of the research from the medical side of this, but the anthropological research on meat eating humans and the introduction of plant based agriculture is very interesting, IMO.
Prior to grains, specifically, being added to the human diet, the average height of a human man was 5’9″. Teeth were not crowded, bones were straight and strong. About 10,000 years ago, when agriculture was organized and grains became part of the diet on a regular basis, all of that changed. Human height averaged at 5’3″ for men and women shorter. Jaws started to shrink. Now we’re seeing third molars disappear, and all of that.
It looks like putting more animal based food back into the diet is turning us into our ancestors height wise, which would explain why Americans are just bigger people than some other cultures. Not just taller, but larger boned aside from the obesity issue. Societies where protein from fish is important as well. Weston Price was one of the people who did a lot of travelling to look at indigenous cultures where meat and fish are standards in the diet, and questioned the wisdom of all the plants we eat.

Gail Combs

The introduction of agriculture also was when the human brain started SHRINKING.
If Modern Humans Are So Smart, Why Are Our Brains Shrinking?
Quora — Why has the human brain shrunk 10% in the last 10,000 years? contains several links
Good summary article: Vegetarians have smaller brains

Barry Groves, PhD
There is overwhelming evidence that we can not be a vegetarian species. In 1972 the publication of two independent investigations confirmed this.-1-2They concerned fats. About half our brain and nervous system is composed of complicated, long-chain, fatty acids. These are also used in the walls of our blood vessels. Without them we cannot develop normally. These fatty acids do not occur in plants, although fatty acids in a simpler form do. This is where plant-eating herbivores come in. Over the year, the herbivores convert the simple fatty acids found in grasses and seeds into intermediate, more complicated forms. By eating the herbivores we can convert their stores of these fatty acids into the ones we need….
….But, getting back to brain size, the decline which started with the advent of agriculture and our greater reliance on foods of plant origin has now seen a dramatically greater decline in those who have adopted a ‘healthy’, vegetarian diet.
Scientists at the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics, University of Oxford, recently discovered that changing to a vegetarian diet could be bad for our brains – with those on a meat-free diet six times more likely to suffer brain shrinkage…..

Deplorable Patriot

I worked for people who were vegetarians. Veggie brain is a real hazard.

Sylvia Avery

Gaetz is effective. Of COURSE they want to bounce him out. Grr….

Pat Frederick

there is a counteroffensive mounting against Omar–about committing fraud in regards to immigration policies–she married her brother to get him here I believe–she could be subject to 5 yrs in jail and a hefty fine…so they might be playing chicken…see who blinks first…but I like Gaetz.
Many are saying he is learning to use the tactics of the left–state something really outrageous–just south of the “line”, let it ripen on line to garner interest and outrage, then walk it back and say sorry.
see if it works for him…

Sylvia Avery

He’s a smart cookie.
I hope that horrible Omar gets bounced out of the House. She and her m*f’er friend are a pair to draw to, that’s for sure.

daughnworks247

Then you HAVE to remove AOC as well.
She threatened Don. Jr. with a subpoena because she was pinned into a corner on a tough tweet by Don and SHE had a knee jerk reaction.
Did SHE ever apologize?

Interesting watching them talk to the press together.

Sylvia Avery

So now Kim and PDJT are off for dinner. Do you think PDJT will eat the octopus? Eeew. I’m not sure I could even pretend….and I wouldn’t have my dog under the table to slip it to like I did when I was a kid.

JW in Germany

Octopus tastes better than many might imagine—not something I crave—but not all that bad, either.

churchmouse

Octopus is seriously good!
Only the tentacles, cut up in pieces, are cooked: either low and slow or sautéed quickly over high heat in a flavoursome Asian or Provencal sauce.
There is also octopus salad: pieces of cooked tentacle further marinated in a delicious vinaigrette.

Pat Frederick

eeeeewwwww
i don’t think i could eat anything that can be described using the word TENTACLE…seriously…too close to the word testicle and while roasting a few of those Democrat ones would be lovely, i wouldn’t be eating those either…

churchmouse

‘TENTACLE…seriously…too close to the word testicle’. That never occurred to me.
Oh, well, more for me, then. 🙂

I would not call Octopus is seriously good! However I do not consider it revolting like brussel sprouts.
It tastes OK but has the texture of pencil erasers. 😋

churchmouse

When it’s prepared properly, it’s tender.

Sylvia Avery

Theirs was to be served with stuffed cucumber.

churchmouse

That would work, too.
Asians and Europeans know how to do octopus.

Many thanks, Wolf — greatly appreciated!

Sylvia Avery

LOL, I’ll take your word for it. Give me a nice filet or a gigantic slab of Pacific salmon fresh from the barbecue!

As good as it is, there’s more to food than that.

Sylvia Avery

Oh sure. My list of food loves is long. There are quite a few seafood items I don’t care for, however.
I’m not likely to encounter fresh octopus prepared by anyone who knows anything about it in my part of the world, and I won’t mourn the loss of the opportunity. I’ll let others enjoy that adventure!

SingularZoe

CM, you bet. Bacon. Dark chocolate. Blue crab cakes with old bay seasoning. Veal pecata. Racks of lamb with mint sauce. Did I say bacon? Roast chicken with rosemary and lemon. Did I say bacon? Lol.

Sylvia, I love your ideas regarding a good dinner.

sallyal

No.

churchmouse

Have you tried it?

sallyal

Oh yes. Never again.

churchmouse

Sorry that you did not have a good experience.
Guess you ate it in one of the Americas (North or South)?
If you had it in southern Europe or Asia, it would have been much better.
One of the principal points of preparation is not to use the first couple of inches of tentacle closest to the head, which will be tough regardless of cooking.

CM in TN

Have had octopus, my neice likes it. I prefer squid though, myself.

This could be big:

There’s a powerful article (from tweet, excerpted). I hope everyone will take a few minutes to read it:
https://www.justice4gemmel.org/post/wrongful-death-civil-rights-lawsuit-filed-by-gemmel-moore-s-mother
‘Attorneys for the estate of Gemmel Moore and his mother LaTisha Nixon say the death of Timothy Dean could have been avoided had Ed Buck been prosecuted for the death of Gemmel Moore in 2017
‘Both Moore and Dean died as a result of drug overdoses at Buck’s West Hollywood home …
‘On July 26, 2018, the District Attorney’s office, under the leadership of DA Jackie Lacey assisted by Assistant Head Deputy District Attorney Craig Hum, declined to file charges against Ed Buck in connection with Gemmel Moore’s death citing insufficient evidence …
‘The lawsuit is seeking damages against Ed Buck for wrongful death, sexual battery, drug dealer liability, premises liability, negligence per se, intentional infliction of emotional distress and hate violence.
‘District Attorney Jackie Lacey and Assistant Head Deputy District Attorney Craig Hum are named as co-defendants for their violating Gemmel Moore’s civil rights in their race-based refusal to prosecute Ed Buck, which ultimately resulted in the January 7, 2019 death of Timothy Dean under almost identical circumstances that should have been prevented.
‘The civil rights causes of action against Lacey and Hum were historically used against prosecutors who similarly refused to prosecute Ku Klux Klansmen for their violent crimes against Black people …
‘In his journal, Moore wrote, “I honestly don’t know what to do. I’ve become addicted to drugs and the worst one at that,” a December entry reads. “Ed Buck is the one to thank. He gave me my first injection of crystal meth it was very painful, but after all the troubles, I became addicted to the pain and fetish/fantasy.”
‘“My life is at an alltime [sic] high right now & I mean that from all ways. I ended up back at Buck [sic] house again and got munipulated [sic] into slamming again. I even went to the point where I was forced to doing 4 within a 2day [sic] period. This man is crazy and its [sic] sad. Will I ever get help?”
‘“Slamming” refers to gay men injecting drugs such as mephedrone, GHB, or crystal meth.
‘In addition to seeking general damages, the lawsuit also seeks an undetermined amount of punitive damages and attorneys’ fees.’

Emeraldstar

Thanks for posting this, CM!
That guy Buck is a total PERV – and when I read that a SECOND death happened, and that the DA “declined” to prosecute, I suspected it was a fix – for a filthy rich D-rat supporter.
I like this list of charges, and I like even more that the DA is named as one of the defendants.
“Prosecutorial discretion” is one of the most widely abused powers of DA’s – and it seems that there aren’t any consequences, except in VERY rare cases.
I hope THIS case is one of those exceptions, and that Buck gets his due …

churchmouse

You’re welcome.
Yes, the list of charges is excellent, along with the names of defendants.
One to watch. Hope it goes far.

But the important thing is that Florida’s problems are being tackled by a bulldog now.
I don’t have to tell you, but as a reminder to other readers how critical Florida is. Florida is huge now and is decisive in elections. Unlike California that is solid blue, or Texas that is reliably red, Florida is still close enough that a few votes can swing the election.
The D’s are pressing their thumbs on the scales in Florida as hard as they can. Even with net +Rep migration the state is teetering on the edge.
The truly scary thing about it: The D’s almost won Florida this cycle! Even with +Rep migration a D win would’ve effectively LOCKED UP Florida for the D’s for a generation or more!
Which would have risked the Republic.
Which would have risked the world.

FTA:
“Even though this hearing included climate change discussion for the SEVENTH time, most of the hearing involved subjects clearly outside the jurisdiction of our Natural Resources subcommittee. In fact, most of the Democrats found it so far down their priorities that they did not attend,” Gohmert told Breitbart News. “While traumatic brain injury from contact sports, labor standards, occupational safety, and the opioid crisis deserve congressional scrutiny and are exceedingly important issues, our committee had no jurisdiction over them, meaning this hearing was all about politics and nothing at all about legislation that would fix any of these problems.

http://ace.mu.nu/
FTA: “Obviously, the courts led by supreme Soviets Roberts with the aid of Justice Buch M. Danno have yet to weigh in (*vomits*), but this is really rage-inducing. And I consider this President blameless. If nothing else, it will just serve to underscore the problem we have had all along and really for decades; that the cause of countering the 100+ year Communist overthrow of our nation as founded does not have an actual political party in which to call home and seek succor and strength.”

Tonawanda

redleg – – cannot prove it, but IMO Wolf has had huge influence in getting people to see the specifically communist angle in the slow destruction of our country. Diana West has been wonderful, but I never saw people explicitly using the term “communist” the way they do now, something which has started happening in just the past year, and especially the last few months.

Tonawanda

A major phenomenon caused by Trump and team is “allowing” people to speak what they know is true. It is a very slow process but you can see it everywhere.

daughnworks247

On the Emergency Declaration.
Yes, there are 31 Emergency Declarations still in place from past Presidents. Both Bush and Obama moved money from other agencies – no issue.
In fact, Obama’s “Emergency Declarations” cost the USA over 30 billion dollars – no complaints from Congress.
The Dem talking point of “90% of drugs come through the borders” is intentionally misleading. It’s 90% of what they caught. They have NO IDEA how much they’ve missed!!!!
The Dems “90%” could be only 5% of total illegal drugs in the USA or it could represent 50% of the total of illegal drugs in the USA. The DEMS, the pundits and the public DON’T KNOW – because it isn’t caught.
Furthermore,
if we only missed 10% of the drugs, but 70K people are dying —- then, sure as hell — we have an emergency.
Don’t EVER let pundits or Democrats lie to you with misleading statistics.

bflyjesusgrl

Exactly. Just like when they try to say illegal border crossing numbers are down. Illegal crossings are still happening!! Illegal crossings need to be zero!!

Tonawanda

Just posting this question before I forget, based on judyw and GA/Fla posts the past couple days:
I distinctly remember the “car out of the weeds” during the Trump convoy, and just watched a follow-up video where some guy visited the site in the weeds where the car was before it shot out at Trump’s vehicle. The guy concludes (with visual evidence) that ANOTHER car had also been there.
I am going to look after I post, but it seems VERY strange to me that news of this incident died immediately.
LIKEWISE, in the aftermath of the apparent mass assassination of the Republicans on the train, I followed the story for about a week, and was amazed at how sketchy the information was, often ambiguous or almost meaningless, certainly not detailed or informative. I realize that news of the actual mass assassination attempt at the baseball practice died immediately, but still find it amazing that this train story died immediately.
I know communist media kills off these types of stories like they were newly born babies (and like they will do with Smollett).
But I wonder why these stories do not get recognized by Q, or by citizen media. This seems to be a disadvantage we have, the inability to broadly sustain a news story for an extended period of time.

Tonawanda

Makes total sense.

I want to say more on this at some point. But we need to be careful about “credibility” versus chasing “credibility”. To the MSM the only “credible” opinion is their own, and anything that supports it.
Message and recipient/target audience. Credibility has more to do with the worldview of the target audience than it does strictly with facts and logic.
We have to be careful about who the target of the message is, or we risk compromising the message. Seen over and over again as bloggers get too big for their britches.
Another possibility, a bit of a long shot but worth pursuing, is continuing to educate people on the informal logical fallacies of relying on “expert”, “mainstream” or “credible” media. If people will stop being swayed/manipulated by fallacious thinking and consider actual evidence then the truth will have a chance to be seen. Not surprisingly the MSM deploys informal logical fallacies constantly to subvert logical thinking.

A Fortiori

The ability to maintain credibility is an important topic; I would add that our problem differs from the MSM because we must, of necessity, conduct our fact gathering and checking in public, whereas the MSM gets to conduct its investigations and make its editorial decisions in private. To the extent that we collect false information, improperly understand the information we obtain or emphasize events that turn out to be trivial, these failings are available (and incredibly useful) for the purpose of damaging our credibility.

michaelh

Good points. They’ve overplayed their shadows game haven’t they? “Anonymous sources” indeed!
One of my concerns is that we can put DATA and EVIDENCE right there in plain sight, so anyone can examine sources, we can show LOGICALLY our thought process in excruciating details, and we can draw powerful INFERENCES, DEDUCTIONS, and CONCLUSIONS based on that data.
But “credibility” is still generally more about PERCEPTIONS of the person reporting than about the difficult PROCESS of discernment.
Some conclusions, no matter how well sourced and backed up, will still be deemed as “not credible” by certain quarters.
Those are the opinions of people we need to be careful NOT to be chasing. They aren’t interested in facts, but their own narratives or worldviews.

I love the concept of putting on the “full armor of God” – it’s what we need at this time. It’s WAR, the quickening is happening – and I do think the infanticide issue brings us to the brink of knowing not only what the Left desires but that there willing to go there.
No one can sit this out. Evil Never Sleeps.

“In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]. Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. Therefore put on God’s complete armor, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day [of danger], and, having done all [the crisis demands], to stand [firmly in your place]. Stand therefore [hold your ground], having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God, And having shod your feet in preparation [to face the enemy with the firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness produced by the good news] of the Gospel of peace. [Isa. 52:7.] Lift up over all the [covering] shield of saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked [one]. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that the Spirit wields, which is the Word of God. Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God’s consecrated people).”

Butterfyly girl, I’ve felt His call, and I hope that doesn’t sound strange, but it’s there, working in my heart – to speak up and out.
It’s good to know our POTUS is trying to restore morality in America.

bflyjesusgrl

Its not at all strange LP, I’ve felt it too, I think many others have too. I truly believe President Trump is annointed by God and an answer to our prayers. He wins, ALL THE TIME!! Only the favor and blessing of the Lord can explain it. To me, POTUS is a blend of King Solomon (wisdom) and King David (courage) with a YUGE heart for his people!!

Many people forget that this country was founded by Divine Providence, the founders themselves believed in a Diety and that God was present as they wrote the founding documents. This country could only be maintained if it was a moral country.

Emeraldstar

“a moral country”
Our Founding Fathers said just so, explicitly.
It’s my belief that this is the most accurate diagnosis of the illness in our Republic – and so, the most efficacious treatment, to restore it to greatness once again, is to restore morality.
There isn’t any system at all – even the to-date BEST one, ours – which can survive corruption by humans.
It’s well worth repeating – and I’m glad you’ve done so, LadyP.

ladypenquin

POTUS understands this is a culture war as much as any other type of conflict.

JW in Germany

Before I continue, I want to say that I do not have all of the facts. All I know is that there is a reason why I have not been commenting as much on CTH—most of you were missing—it felt all of a sudden. What the heck happened?
I seemed to have missed something—somehow I had fallen into a black-hole of information. I hear of people being banned from CTH. How many people have been banned? What have I missed?
All I noticed was that it seemed the most recognizable commenters were disappearing in a very short period of time.

Pat Frederick

there was a point when many OT noticed a lack of the “old timers” and someone mentioned they went to “wolf’s” site. we wondered if they were ever coming back and so I volunteered to ask.
I came here asked if they were coming back and was surprised to learn it was NOT their choice not go back. they were banned from commenting because they had supported or at least had an open mind about Q.
I reported back to TCH and said as much and what do you know? I was banned. now i never said yeah or nay about Q but always said the host (SD) has a right to determine what’s on his site. but because I spilled the beans in a comment, I too was banned…

JW in Germany

I have my own thoughts on Q…regardless, I always thought Q to be a net positive for spreading the message about the corruption. I never bought into the idea that following Q would make LESS people go vote by causing complacency—weak argument being used by fellow Treepers<<<Or were they?

NYGuy54

JW in Germany

I am originally an NY guy, myself—upstate in the Catskills. Glad to see you over here, too!

ladypenquin

JW, good to see you. I was one of those who still was commenting at CTH, keeping up the spirits so to speak, but noticed the absence of many. Q-Treepers found me and invited me into this cozy, caring place. I can still comment over at CTH, but many of the folks who make reasoned solid comments are gone or silent.
Ristvan’s legal analysis comments are ones I miss, and glad when I come across them.
SD unfollowed and blocked me on twitter when he realized I was here. I simply think some major shift happened – some say last summer – and instead of being optimistic, it’s a little pessimistic. It’s a shame because we need everyone to be fighting together in this WAR!

JW in Germany

I mentioned an incident that reminded me of what is going on at CTH and Sundance.
Does anybody remember LGF (Little Green Footballs) and Charles Johnson? About 15 years ago, it used to be the most popular conservative blog uncovering media lies—one day, things just flipped.

ladypenquin

Yes, I heard about LGF after the fact. Very strange, but Johnson went to the dark side. Have no idea what he is doing now.

JW in Germany

I used to be a regular there. LGF is now a liberal blog…not enjoying any of the popularity it used to have as a conservative truth telling blog.

Marica

My Sister and I talked about LGF too!!! Very odd.

JW in Germany

We all know the “Scaramucci” model. Perhaps there is also an LGF model?

Marica

Wolfie has some theories regarding the pressure put on SD–He thinks some REAL pressure was put on him from C _A or other alphabet…
I don’t think Flep would care if I tell you the rest of the Flep story…
He would post here as well as OT–but one day he came here and replied to me: Hey Marica! I am trying to get banned by SD….etc…had some details…
The next day, SD had sent him a message via twitter with the cut and paste of our convo here!!! i was 😱! That’s when he decided to start his own blog and he reached out to Wolfie and the match made in heaven is what we have now!!! So I’m certainly banned..I just have never checked! 😊

JW in Germany

Something happened. I had many times thought that OT/SD truly deserved a Pulitzer. That seems so long ago.
One of my theories is that SD was getting way too close too fast very early on in the campaign—started drawing attention and a crowd.
Danger!
I guess my comments here will get me banned, as well.

JW in Germany

I just got full body chills—not the good kind!
Wolf—I never wanted to say it publicly. But, now that you have wrote it—I know confirmation bias blah, blah, blah…
That is why I tried several times over the last couple of years to strike a deeper conversation about controlled opposition and how deep it really goes. Several layers acting as sort of a safety pressure release system designed to trick people into thinking that they have a voice—greatly diminishing the chance of large public protest.
At one point, SD had hinted at the multiple layers of controlled opposition talking about Rush and Levin. Was there some level of telling on ones self? I almost feel bad about asking the question—but what if?

JW in Germany

Indeed—check one’s self first. It helps to understand others.

JW in Germany

Wolf, I believe your observations are right on. I think much of the evidence is itself the repetition of the tactics they use over the years—the internet has become their biggest weapon—AND THEIR WORST NIGHTMARE!
Our advantage is that they continue to use an old playbook. Their patterns are becoming recognizable.

Emeraldstar

“What the heck happened?”
Only they know for sure. It became acute just after the election.
Although there seem to have been clues leading up to it, you’re right – the hammer came down suddenly.
Either by choice, or by duress, OT (“Over There”) changed its policy.
It now employs virulent censorship – of opinions, of ideas, and of topics.
“Truth Has No Agenda” – a motto OT – quickly became a sick joke, an Orwellian-style statement 180 degrees from the truth. Now, there IS an agenda.
Speculation as to the reason(s) why is just that – speculation. Some hypotheses are charitable … and some are not. The “style” with which the purge was implemented, though, I thought NASTY, FRIVOLOUS, and PUERILE.
Others have their own opinions, of course … but I’m pretty sure that no one on the “Banned Wagon” liked the treatment at all. You may find, as most (not all) others here have, that posting here gets you banned OT.
I left voluntarily, and have never looked back. Clean break. And I haven’t any desire to discover whether they’ve banned me … because I BANNED THEM.
At this point, it’s a subject I avoid almost totally …
(Btw – Happy Birthday!)

Ray Charles shooting at the would-be guitar thief, the mall chase, the restaurant scene (I don’t think they could film that now), “DO YOU SEE THE LIGHT?”… and Minnie the Moocher… loved the music, too…

And I didn’t put ANYTHING extra in my covfefe – though I might have some Kahlua now 🙂

Wolf, reading through the replies to my inquiry about OT have only confirmed what I had been feeling for some time.
I do not know this to be true. But, I have always had a suspicion that once a source outside of the mainstream media becomes too big for the mainstream britches—the mainstream takes measures to alleviate whatever is being a pain in their cabooses.
Am I the only one who remembers Little Green Footballs? Charles Johnson literally flipped a 180° and went full-blown libtard. Maybe, I have been doing this stuff for too long! LOL!

It was November 12th, 2018, for me.
All of a sudden, I could not post. And it was only a couple of weeks after Sundance had taken one of my comments and made a special post about it. No idea what happened. Or why. I was not a “Q” poster. Heck, I’ve never even been in Facebook jail. I was startled. I emailed CTH and Sundance, thinking it was a wordpress issue. When I didn’t get an email back, I thought it was because he was busy researching something. I thought something was wrong with my computer. I swept my computer, clearing things, sweeping any bugs.
By day three, I looked for help from others I knew from CTH, which is when I found WolfMoon.
It was ONLY then did I realize I had actually been banned, along with so many other friends. I was crushed and hurt. CTH was a daily regular and we made friends there. All of a sudden, I was no longer welcome.
Bizarre.
It made no sense.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

By interesting coincidence, that’s the day I bought my bearded dragon.
If I sold him could we go back? Naah. Even if true, to hell with it!

Pat Frederick

what did you name him?

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Well before I bought him I found a series of bearded dragon videos over on the internet, and the reptilian star of the show is named “Addy” after Adelaide, a city in Australia (the bearded dragons, genus Pogona, are from Australia). This particular species (Pogona vitticeps) hails from swath of land that encompasses most of Northern and Southern Australia, and Adelaide is the capital of Southern Australia. Well…Darwin is the capital of the Northern Territory, so there’s my name.
I found out later that Darwin, NT is not a coincidence, it’s actually named after Charles Darwin (who was born the exact same day as Lincoln, which IS a coincidence), but the interesting thing is, they named it after him 20 years BEFORE the Origin of Species came out. Apparently his shipmates on the Beagle liked him a lot; on the voyage after the one he was on, they mapped the area and named it after him.

Aubergine

Has it been mentioned before that November 11 was an especially mentioned day for Q? Did I miss that in all of the commentary about all of us being banned? All kinds of stuff was supposed to happen that day.

Emeraldstar

“All kinds of stuff was supposed to happen that day.”
And who’s to say whether it didn’t (non-public), or it did (public)?
Misdirection can be a good thing, when used to win a righteous battle (or war), and I think that many were misled into believing that specific, and anticipated, events were to happen on that date.
Yet, we won the Senate – the most important thing (our VSGPDJT worked so hard!).
And, do you remember the reports of the Earth-wide ELF (ultra-low-frequency) wave, which was picked up by seismologists’ instruments, and which confounded them as to the source?
I read recently on the anons an hypothesis about this, that it was akin to the take-out of the 1-2-3-4-5-Ayes SAT capability that the cabal – to disseminate their “4am talking points” – had. Perhaps the weird high-tech GLOBAL wave – with peaks every 17 seconds, btw – was able to disable a different comms system.
There may be many other events which took place, unbeknownst to us. And so, we must rely on what Q said: “Future proves past.” When the time is right, in the future, we’ll know what was true, in the past (i.e., now, plus/minus).

JW in Germany

I noticed something right after the election. At the same time, I was busy getting ready for enjoying my 1st Christmas in 30 years with my family in NY. That is where I lost track about what was going on.

Several branches of the old treehouse broke off (or were sawn off). Probably some attempt and pruning and “sculpting” the topiary. Doom and gloom started after the November election – I put forth a strong effort to pivot the commentary to something more hopeful. Felice was still commenting and it brought me hope that things weren’t too far gone. Too many people were bordering on severe and possible clinical depression.
December was a VERY hard time for me and my family. [Insert details here.] CTH circling the drain simply added to the turmoil in my life. I believe it was spiritual warfare. It was bad enough that I was compelled to dig in and find verses of hope and renewal to find “Solutions?” – I posted them on CTH but without much traction, posted them on WQTH and Wolf featured them in a post that brought A New Hope.
I was free to post over there until the day I handed Felice the Zippo and he lit the tree on fire 😉 Felice called out SD, and Cohen specifically for being a coward – if you haven’t been watching the news TODAY, I’ll let you know that Felice was right and SD’s predictions about Cohen still haven’t even come close to happening. After that SD blocked ppl not just for Q but for even daring to be associated with WQTH.
CTH is never going to go back to what it was before, but Wolf made lemonade out of lemons. WQTH has grown dramatically in the past few months and it has taken on a life of its own. I’ve been tracking the volume of comments – WQTH is not as high as CTH but the quality of comments is much higher. WQTH commenters post on the open topic ahead of SD “breaking” a new story with a post. So much of SD has become repetitive copy/paste of old stories that there is rarely anything new worth reading there – and if there is, someone brings it over here so have an OPEN conversation about it.
SD does lurk here. Be aware if that is a concern for you. But at this point I am not expecting a major breaking episode of investigative journalism from SD. GP seems to have had a lot more scoops lately, but CTH seems to be content to coast along for the time being.

JW in Germany

Your experience seems to mirror much of my own. Something happened. Outside influence?

A Fortiori

We are all guessing on this, but my view is that some form of outside influence was the cause of what we all experienced. At one point I had thought that perhaps SD had brought in some writers to help with the volume, and perhaps wasn’t managing them well. I say this because it appeared to me that what was being produced as SD material was coming from multiple authors. Grammar and syntax of some SD posts changed, which I thought was odd in that I would seek to have ghost writers mimic my style were I in SD’s shoes. But then the content of the posts changed even more radically, to the point where it became clear this was more than a failure to adequately edit drafts produced on SD’s behalf.

JW in Germany

Interesting. I remember some people hinting that SD was not the original SD—I thought it was silly, at the time. Not so sure any more. There does seem to be a lot of content recycling.
I do not have enough information to come to any conclusion….yet.
Somebody else mentioned the eeyorism that runs abound OT. For me, the comment section OT had become unreadable.

It used to be that I’d hop on a new post and read the comments first, then go back and review the post. Little point anymore.

I knew about Carlson’s work thanks to Bongino using large parts of Jeff’s articles during his podcasts.

JW in Germany

What Brian Cates tweeted about SD makes my arm hair stand up—I have had the same exact thoughts—and even commented on some of them even months ago.

michaelh

Yes SD has doubled-down on his narrative, and claims to know more than the evidence can support that he knows. I’d love to go on about it, but sadly we’ve hashed this around so many times I’m just jawing at this point. But the main thing is to trust your instincts, like a good cop does.

Michael Cohen is a boomerang, IMO. I think they’ll come to regret their show trial.
Remember Renova Invest (Renova Group) and the Harvard Institute for International Development scandal that I posted about?
It gets deeper. Please take a look at Columbus Nova, LLC, “an affiliate investment manager under the Renova Group’s umbrella” according to this: http://www.renova.ru/en/structure/company.
I sure hope that Cohen is asked why Columbus Nova deposited $1/2 a million into his bank account in 2017. I’m sure his answer will be a whopper.
From Columbus Nova’s wiki: ..”Connection to Viktor Vekselberg and payments to Michael Cohen
According to the Washington Post, “Columbus Nova has been described in federal regulatory filings as an affiliate of the Renova Group, founded by Russian billionaire Viktor Vekselberg”. The sanctioned Russian company Renova Group, itself controlled by Vekselberg, also subject to U.S. sanctions, has previously listed Columbus Nova as an affiliate investment manager under the Renova Group’s umbrella.[8] Per regulations administered by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), companies that are at least 50% owned by sanctioned individuals or companies are themselves subject to U.S. sanctions.[9] Columbus Nova stated that, while Renova Group had been their largest client, they had never been part of Renove Group, and had been “100 percent owned by U.S. citizen” since its inception.[10][11]
On May 8, 2018, the New York Times reported that during 2017 Columbus Nova made payments of at least $500,000 to a bank account maintained by Michael Cohen, then acting as President Donald Trump’s personal attorney.[12] However, the sanctions against Renova Group were not put in place until April 6, 2018,[13] so even if Columbus Nova were subject to sanctions due to its ownership structure, payments from Vekselberg to Donald Trump (via Cohen) would not have been expressly prohibited by OFAC at the time the payments were made.[14] …” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbus_Nova#cite_note-8
Columbus Nova also invested in Lyor Cohen’s Rhapsody label. Lyor Cohen (formerly Def Jam) was formerly the CEO of Warner Music Group according to the wiki.

marymorse

Vekselberg’s partner Leonard Blavatnik (both linked to Oleg Deripaska) is a major owner of Warner Music Group. Mr. Blavatnik is a major backer of Lee Daniel’s (producer of Empire) projects. It’s reported that Lee Daniels was at a Kamala Harris fund raiser on Feb. 3.

Thanks for the information, Mary.

“…. so even if Columbus Nova were subject to sanctions due to its ownership structure, payments from Vekselberg to Donald Trump (via Cohen) would not have been expressly prohibited…” -WIKI
Is there anything showing the payments from Vekselberg to Cohen actually made it TO Donald Trump??? OR, that President Trump, if the money made it to him, was aware of the origins.
“…Vekselberg’s partner Leonard Blavatnik (both linked to Oleg Deripaska)…”
So there is our old pal Oleg Deripaska AGAIN.
I would not put it past Oleg Deripaska using this as ANOTHER method for setting up President Trump.
>>>>>
Looking a bit deeper we have from WIKI
On May 8, 2018, the New York Times reported that during 2017 Columbus Nova made payments of at least $500,000 to a bank account maintained by Michael Cohen, then acting as President Donald Trump’s personal attorney….”
Connects to: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/08/us/politics/michael-cohen-shell-company-payments.html
Unfortunately I can no longer look at NYT.
The critical question I have is WHEN was the payment made to Cohen???
AND WHY???
Was it after Mueller was SC?

That 1/2 million payment TO a COHEN controlled acct FROM a RUSSIAN connected entity STINKS of set-up, esp after at LEAST 6 months of ‘Muh Russia’
ALSO, I just remembered. President-Elect Trump made a very big deal of all the paperwork he signed to turn his businesses over to his family so he was in no way connected. This makes this stink even more.

Haven’t had the cabbage one, but have had the potato-bacon one. We have something called Kohlrouladen, which are like Rinderrouladen (beef roll-ups, stuffed with pickle, bacon cubes, and mustard) only with cabbage as the “cover” as opposed to beef.

No problem, but it feels like answer to prayer, and I always figure we can use all the help we can get. The Left has been using the judiciary to achieve what they never could get out of the legislature – it’s our only recourse – except for civil war.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Well, we’re already in a “cold” civil war, IMHO.
The traditions in the Senate that the Turtle has been clinging to were meant for a day when the losing side in an election would admit that they were the losing side; they were gracious losers and the other side could afford to be gracious winners, and they could extend courtesies to each other especially since the positions could be reversed some day.
The left long ago abandoned this, they were neither gracious winners nor losers and have been using the old courtesies against us while not feeling bound by them themselves.
It’s a cold civil war, and it’s time we started acting like it.

ladypenquin

Steve, the other night my hubby and I attended an “Act for America” event with Brigitte Gabriel as speaker – it was eye opening. I plan to write up the notes I took from the meeting and will post – maybe next week. Felt like it could wait a little – the Infanticide issue cannot be taken out of the public’s consciousness – it’s that serious.
This is likely the point on which the sparks will fly.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

A lot of people who are “pro choice” (albeit only for very early stages of pregnancy) hung with the Dems because that issue was overridingly important for them, and they knew many Republicans wanted an outright ban on abortion from the moment of conception on. But I think even they cannot countenance (post birth) killings. So they will be forced to abandon the Dems.
This I think accounts for the huge swing recently on the abortion issue: “pro choice” has now been redefined in many peoples’ minds in its most absolute sense (up to the moment of birth) or even further. They don’t want to be associated with that, so given exactly two choices…guess what they do?
We could probably KILL this issue for Democrats and bring over many of the people who used to think they were pro-choice, if our own base was willing to swallow legal abortion in say the first eight weeks (I’d want to refresh my memory on developmental timelines before making that a hard and fast number–so consider that very tentative on my part). In return for this, a total ban on government funding for abortions. But our base won’t accept that, so I expect the pendulum will swing back, eventually.

ladypenquin

Pro-choice is now being recognized as pro-abortion – a PR stigma that doesn’t set well with Americans, even liberal ones who fancy themselves enlightened.

Gail Combs

The Infanticide issue is our wedge!
We need literature for the coming Christmas and for Easter 2020 to strike home on this issue.

Matthew 1:18 King James Version (KJV)
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

So what if Joseph, who was engaged to Mary, killed the child at birth because he KNEW it was not his.. After all the Spartans exposed (killed by leaving outside) unwanted children.
The Spartan Family

If a baby was weak, the Spartans exposed it on the hillside or took it away to become a slave (helot). Infanticide was common in ancient cultures, but the Spartans were particularly picky about their children. It was not just a matter of the family, the city-state decided the fate of the child….

And speaking of Sparta…
It was Ludwig von Westphalen who first introduced Marx to socialist teachings.. Marx’s dissertation was dedicated to Ludwig. Remember Ludwig would have been familiar with the Classics and Plutarch’s account of Ancient Spartan Communism.
Ludwig, was the youngest son of Baron Christian Philip Heinrich von Westphalen the de facto “chief of staff” to Duke Ferdinand during the Seven Years’ War. His mother was the descendant of many Scottish and European noble families. So Ludwig (later Baron) was well connected to the European aristocracy.
The French Revolution lasted from 1789 until 1799. The Holy Roman Empire, after existing for a thousand years, was dissolved on 6 August 1806, after its defeat by Napoleon at the Battle of Austerlitz. The Napoleonic Wars involving most of Europe was from 1803 to 1815. Defeating Napoleon, the European aristocracy managed to hold onto their way of life by the skin of their teeth.
A year later in 1816 Ludwig von Westphalen was transferred to Trier where he met and befriended Heinrich Marx, the father of Karl Marx. Now why would a well connected nobleman befriend a Jewish businessman/lawyer?
Perhaps because Heinrich Marx wife’s first cousin married Nathan Rothschild, founder of the British branch of the Rothschild banking dynasty?
Marx secretary Pieper was at the same time employed by Rothschild. When Rothschild left Frankfurt they went to Paris (the first place Marx lived in Exile) and London (the second exile home of Marx).
I see nothing that makes me think that Marx actually cared for the ‘Masses’ instead I see a giant scam to destroy the middle class and bring the masses back under the control of the elite.
Marx and Engel saw the masses as scum.
Marx an Engels, 14. August 1879

(German)
“Als wir heut morgen im Hôtel de l’Europe anfrugen, traf es sich glücklich so, daß grade 60 Franzosen sich auf die Abreise vorbereiteten, während andrerseits die mit frischem Menschenkehricht belasteten steamers noch nicht eingetroffen.”
(English)
“When this morning we inquired at the Hotel de l’Europe, fortunately it so happened that 60 Frenchmen were preparing to leave, while on the other hand the steam ships loaded with fresh human debris had not arrived yet.”
http://marxwords.blogspot.com/2005_03_01_archive.html

ladypenquin

“Caring for the masses” simply hides the quest for power among the elite selected class. Just the fact that such a distinction is made proves that they don’t believe in the true equality of man.
Ancient civilizations and the Stone Age era both have in common the lack of civilization and the morality that came with Judaic-Christian beliefs. It’s what gives us our humanity today. Once it’s gone, we tumble like all those societies of old.

Obama jokes ?comment imagecomment image

TheseTruths

That Obama portrait is only going to look more ridiculous over time. The President of the U.S. does not take an indoor chair, sit in a bunch of greenery, and have someone paint his portrait. It’s like something out of Dr. Seuss.
He sat and he sat,
Till out came the cat…
No doubt the portrait uses great symbolism, with their penchant for hiding things in plain sight, and I also have no doubt it is not about America or in her best interests.

Cuppa Covfefe

That’s probably as close to ivy league as he ever got… an empty chair, indeed…

ladypenquin

I think there is something wrong with a president who thinks this is how he should be portrayed. Is it a cultural thing, and I don’t get it?

TheseTruths

If it’s a cultural thing, that illustrates part of the problem with Obama. He did not grow up with American culture, and he did not value it and try to uphold it. Instead, he tried to change and destroy it.

Wait a minute again, Cohen sent letters to not send grades or SAT scores to colleges? But Obama spent MILLIONSSSSSSSSSSSS of dollars to hide his records.
This is all designed for commercials for the campaign.
Donald Trump is a “racist” because he allegedly said, “Name one black leader of a country that is a success” or on a trip through Chicago (convenient) allegedly Trump said, “Only a black person could live like that.”
Cohen is trying to damn Don Jr as well.
Oh this is rich – Cohen claims the President “doesn’t love the country” because Trump explained the gov’t was stupid for sending a man like him a 10 million dollar tax refund.
Ohhhh here we go, Cohen claims Trump didn’t respect McCain.
Here we go, bone spurs and medical deferment for Vietnam – timed to “be ironic that he’s in Vietnam right now”.
Bwwhahahaa, Cohen claims Trump thinks Don Jr. “has the worst judgement, ever”.
Implying Don Jr told Dad about meeting with the Russians in Trump Tower.
Ahhhhh, and Cohen is being attacked, unfairly, by the President and his lawyers.
This is ALLLLLLL politics and that the Dems are doing this, Pelosi ‘protecting’ Cohen, praising Schiff, Cummings, and those Republicans who admonish Trump, that they are doing this……… while Trump is in Vietnam, is the worst of the low. Absolutely despicable behavior.

This is absurd, Cohen claims NOTHING happened in the Trump Org without President’s personal approval.
Broad sweeping statement. Of course, there is no way possible for one person to know or approve everything.
Attorneys look for these kinds of statement to question the veracity and particularly the motives of a witness.

daughnworks247

“Michael” very unusual that a female Dem congresswoman would call Cohen by his first name. Highly inappropriate. Cohen being used to cast shade on David Pecker, AMI, National Enquirer, describing “catch and kill” operations. Catch and kill is a process by where a lawyer works with a media outlet to suppress a story by paying for it.
It’s commonly done by wealthy people. AND if Stormy screwed the President in 2006, and it became an issue, 3 weeks before a Presidential campaign, and she ‘sold it’ for ONLY $130K then she left 10 million dollars on the table…… at least.

TheseTruths

I suspect that using his first name was a way to diminish his position and responsibilities as a lawyer for a high-powered person, and to make him look like just one of the folks who’s being persecuted by…wait for it…Orange Man Bad! dun-dun-duhhhhhhhn 🎶

There ya’ go. Cohen just testified, they were deciding what to do and if she was going to go public or not. We did learn there was no negotiation about the $130K, the amount was demanded by Stormy to stay silent. The group decided that $130K was not that much money and just to pay her and make it go away.

Meadows just NAILED Cohen for lying today.
Meadows learned Cohen did not file foreign income for ‘lobbying’ or working on behalf of organizations to get to Trump. He claimed he had nothing this morning but Meadows turned up the form, Cohen wrote in N/A.
Thus, Cohen either lied this morning or now.
Cohen said, “I don’t have an answer for his question”
Cumming would not direct the witness Cohen, to answer the question, and moved on.
Cummings is not running the committee fairly, at all.

There’s an important nugget. Felix Sadir could never provide PROOF to Cohen that the property in question (Moscow) was never owned by the person who claimed to own it, therefore the project could NOT move forward.

“HE WHO dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]. I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust! For [then] He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. [Then] He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you trust and find refuge; His truth and His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day, Nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that surprise and lay waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. Only a spectator shall you be [yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High] as you witness the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place, [Ps. 91:1, 14.] There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your tent. For He will give His angels [especial] charge over you to accompany and defend and preserve you in all your ways [of obedience and service]. They shall bear you up on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone. [Luke 4:10, 11; Heb. 1:14.] You shall tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the serpent shall you trample underfoot. [Luke 10:19.] Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness–trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never]. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation.”

The payment to stormy was not a campaign contribution.
Cohen paid it personally and Trump reimbursed it personally.
There was no campaign money.
People, especially wealthy people, do this all the time.
Recall the $35K to the doorman who made the wild claim Trump had another child.
Cohen had 11 checks for the year, he was paid monthly, as a lawyer. There is NOTHING to infer it was hush money, specifically, Cohen would be presumed to have other expenses as a personal lawyer.

Give me a break. Here’s an excellent article on Cohen’s shady dealings:
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/05/business/michael-cohen-lawyer-trump.html
Where was the FBI when Cohen was setting up businesses later involved in insurance fraud while h was chasing ambulances circa 2000?
…”Starting in 2000, Mr. Cohen set up a series of companies in New York City. There were two medical practices, an acupuncture office, two medical billing companies, two management companies and a transportation company…Mr. Cohen’s role, if any, in the operation of the companies he helped set up was unclear. …
The only people listed in the incorporation papers as having roles in the businesses are the two doctors, Aleksandr Martirosov and Zhanna Kanevsky, who were each affiliated with a medical practice.
But both of those doctors were accused of insurance fraud in connection with different medical practices they operated.
Dr. Martirosov was arrested and charged with insurance fraud and grand larceny in 2003. A little more than a year earlier, Mr. Cohen had registered Avex Medical Care in Dr. Martirosov’s name.
In 2005, Dr. Kanevsky was indicted on state racketeering charges, the result of a lengthy wiretap investigation into phony accidents and medical claims. Mr. Cohen had registered Life Quality Medical Care on Dr. Kanevsky’s behalf in April 2002.”…

Dem congressman says he can’t see anything Cohen has to gain by lying today —- yet several Congressmen have already illustrated, if Cohen does well today, according to SDNY or Mueller, then his sentence could be reduced.

IIRC for trade agreements under laws Congress passed now POTUS can make any agreement, and Congress would have to explicitly voted to cancel it. Normal order would have required Congress to approve any agreement, but they wanted their (CoC) boy able to run the show without interference.

Gail Combs

Also under international law an Exec Agreement = Constitutional Treaty.

U.S. law distinguishes what it calls treaties, which are derived from the Treaty Clause of the United States Constitution, from congressional-executive agreements and executive agreements. All three classes are considered treaties under international law; they are distinct only from the perspective of internal United States law
…So for instance, if the US Supreme Court found that a treaty violated the US constitution, it would no longer be binding on the US under US law; but it would still be binding on the US under international law, unless its unconstitutionality was manifestly obvious to the other states [nations] at the time the treaty was contracted
http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p_mla_apa_research_citation/0/9/7/3/1/p97319_index.html?type=info

Unfortunately that website no longer has the info. More on the subject of international law vs Constitution was saved HERE:

What is worse the Supreme Court since the time of FDR betrayed this country.

Treaty Politics and the Rise of Executive Agreements: International Commitments in a System of Shared Powers
Executive agreements do not require super-majority support in the Senate as do formal Article II treaties. Since the 1940s, the vast majority of international agreements have been completed by presidents as executive agreements rather than as treaties. This major policy evolution occurred without changes to the Constitution, though Supreme Court decisions and practice by the political branches have validated the change. This has led some scholars to conclude that the treaty power “has become effectively a Presidential monopoly” (Franck and Weisband 1979: 135; see also Corwin 1984).

One main point.
I learned today that Cohen had no access to President Trump during October and November of 2016.
Cohen made the payment from personal funds to Stormy. Lot of people in the room, discussing Stormy, openly, whether or not she would go public, and they all decided to pay her the sum SHE requested from a wild claim in 2006 of an affair. They decided it wasn’t that much money and go ahead and pay her to get out of the way.
Convinced…..Trump didn’t do anything with Stormy.

One of the many, many, many reasons why government needs to get out of education.
State proposes lowering ‘F’ grade to just 39 percent
https://www.local10.com/education/state-proposes-lowering-f-grade-to-just-39-percent
“The North Carolina legislature is considering a change in the grading system for the state’s public schools.
The bill in question would be based on a 15-point scale, rather than a 10-point scale for grades.
That would mean only scores lower than 39 percent would qualify for an F grade for schools, a far cry from the current 60 percent failure mark in the state and most others.”
Don’t know about anyone else here, but where I went to school we were on a seven point scale.
A was 100-93
B was 92.9 – 85
C was 84.9 – 77
D was 76.9 – 70
F was 69.9 and below
And more than one nun refused to round up.

kea

When I went to college for my bachelor’s degree they were doing massive grading curves

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

You can set a grade scale, but you also have to know what it is that’s being graded on that scale. Sometimes a really lax looking scale is appropriate if the material is in fact very difficult.
If you’re giving high school seniors material suitable for 6th graders, then anything under 95.0 should be an F. (Of course it would be difficult to tell the excellent students from the good and average ones, if you were to do this.) If you’re giving them genuinely challenging material well into college level, then perhaps 20.0 and above should be an A.
Only if the material actually matches the student does it make sense to mandate a scale like yours.
(And to answer your question, I typically had secondary school teachers who gave 90+ an A, 80-89.9999… a B, 70-79.999… a C and so on, anything below 60 was flunk. Again, that doesn’t by itself indicate your school was tougher than mine was, until you look at the material. That being said, I’d be surprised if your school wasn’t actually tougher than mine, though the difference might not be as great if you compared the honors/C track of my school with your school.)
College was inevitably “graded on a curve,” rather than on an absolute scale, (or in some cases done on an absolute scale set lower) because the material was such that oftentimes the best student in a class was in the 70s. It wasn’t because the students were stupid, it’s because the professor deliberately gave them hard stuff to challenge them. It took me a while to figure this out; in one of my math classes freshman year my average was in the low 70s, and I figured I was doomed; I really sweated that final. Got an A in the class even though I realized it was mathematically impossible, even with an aced final, to get up to more than about 83% (and I know I didn’t ace that final!). The professor gave out As to people whose averages were in the 70s; he didn’t expect anyone to manage something in the 90s.

Deplorable Patriot

The school my brothers went to is one like that.
At the time, the school where I went was on the list, and after one principal did damage that took decades to undo, it’s back on the list.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I was in a government school, which had A, B and C tracks (C being the highest, counterintuitively), and of course you could take a college prep curriculum, a vocational curriculum, or–I imagine the others could be termed “marking time until I graduate” curriculum. A lot of honors classes were available–An A in an honors class was worth 5 points on the GPA, not 4, so a number of students graduated with >4.0 GPAs. AP classes counted as though they were honors. C track classes did NOT. (There was an honors world history class in 10th grade but only a C track for 11th, for instance…sucked, and so did that class itself.)
It was possible to get into Harvard or Cal Tech from my high school so its reputation can’t have been too bad. I’m not sure about MIT though. Today, I doubt any of this is true; it went downhill fast about ten years after I graduated.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

My prior rant aside, I need to register my agreement that government should NOT be involved in education.
As Marshall Fritz once said, the public school system is the reproductive organ of the state.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Another aspect of this is that getting government out of school would end FOREVER all the wrangling over prayer in school, teaching creationism vs. evolution, etc., etc. et endless cetera.
Because the wrangling is based on people complaining that the government is using their tax money to do things they don’t like and/or people insisting that their likes be imposed on others at government expense.
If schools were privatized that would all go away. Want prayer in school? Send Johnny to a school that has prayer in school! You might even find one that prays exactly in accordance with your specific denomination!

SingularZoe

So right, Steve. Get the state out of education and education ouot of the state.

Foreigner Boycott Of US Treasurys Continues: 7Y Auction Indirects Tumble To 3 Year Low
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-02-26/foreigner-boycott-us-treasurys-continues-7y-auction-indirects-tumble-3-year-low
Following the earlier collapse in Indirect bidders in this week’s 2Y auction, and the spike in the Direct takedown in yesterday’s 5Y auction, today’s sale of $32 billion in 7Y paper saw a continuation of both of these recent trends.
First the good news: the auction stopped at a high yield of 2.538%, stopping through the When Issued 2.547% by a whopping 0.9bps, while the yield was the lowest since December 2017, and well below last month’s 2.625% as one by one rates traders expect the Fed to start cutting rates soon.
The internals were not nearly as strong, however, with the Bid to Cover rising to 2.60, up from 2.54% in January and above the 6 month average of 2.51. More importantly, there were continuing signs of a foreign bidder boycott, if not nearly as harsh as the one observed during the 2Y auction earlier this week, as Indirects took down only 55.2%, below the 58.3% in January, and the lowest Indirect print since the 47.1% in December 2015. Directs, meanwhile, surged just like in yesterday’s 5Year auction, rising to 28.4%, the second highest on record, and just below the 32.6% Directs in March 2014. This means that dealers were left with just 16.4%, the lowest since the 11.7% in January 2018.

daughnworks247

The more buyers there are, the lower the price goes.
If we had no buyers for our bonds, the price would rise higher, to attract buyers with a better interest rate.
Makes sense, eh?
We don’t want the price to go toooooooooo low because the USA wants to attract buyers at a certain rate – thus the Treasury shuts off the sale.
German bonds yield lower rates, heck, I can’t think of another world power with a higher rate for their bonds than the USA.
Foreign buyers not being there is misleading. China used to buy a lot of our bonds. Their portfolio was China’s piggy bank. They had about 1.6 trillion in that piggy bank. Yet, China had to break their piggy bank to support their own economy and is now down to only about 1.03 trillion, last I checked.
With France GDP growth at about 9/10ths of 1% and Germany foundering at about zero growth, I’m not surprised there were no foreign gov’t buyers. They need the money for their own problems.

A slight disagreement with Donald Trump Jr. – they don’t love America. It’s easy for them to hate Trump, but they hate America (US) more. If it wasn’t DJT in the WH, but another GOP, they’ve be doing the same thing.
It’s all out war for control of this country and whether we’re going to be communist/fascist or a Constitutional Republic. There is no longer a meeting in the middle from both parties. The right side range is all the way to center. The Democrats have moved as far away from center as possible, and still pretend they’re American.

Gail Combs

Wolfie, DJT Jr was being nice. The quote should be:
“They hate President Trump more than they love HATE America.”

Breaking News: Majority of Americans cannot tell difference between AI generated headlines and Clickbait headline written by a Journalism Grad!

Harry Lime

I can’t tell the difference between an AI generated headline, a Journalism grad, and a Democrat party staffer. I’ll even throw in a farting cow…they’re all the same to me…well, except the cow at least produces something useful eventually.

Harry Lime

I wonder if anyone did any research on the names of those reporters that were let go (what was it 1000?) to see if they were even real reporters. I highly suspect that the vast majority of them were journo-bots like Polly suggests in this piece. Maybe some real reporters were let go…but 1000? Seems very sketchy.

I don’t think my company has seen 1000 entry-level resumes for coders, so maybe you’re right.

Journalism in the past: Get out of the office. Go to where the stories are. Meet with people. Listen to their stories. Investigate the facts. Get the scoop. Report the facts. Make the story.
Journalism today: Get on Twitter. Read a bunch of tweets. Find a few you like. Collect a listicle. Flesh it out to a full length article. Write a clickbait headline (ouch, the hard part!). Click “Submit”. Clock it out at 5PM.

Deplorable Patriot

Some qanon thoughts wrt Test Drops…………..
Not entirely sure where to post this but the pictures that were in the test post that Q linked have a message encoded into the numbers, basically telling us which Q posts to refer to. I’m almost certain there’s more to it but this is a decent start.
First off the pictures were dropped in the order 2314 which leads us to
https://qmap.pub/read/2314
The first picture dropped had these numbers in them 720, 1154, 360, 577

Which leads us to posts
https://qmap.pub/read/720
https://qmap.pub/read/1154
https://qmap.pub/read/360
https://qmap.pub/read/577
I’m sure there’s more messages hidden, such as the timestops of the Q posts that I referenced here as well as their placements on the clock.

The second picture dropped had these numbers in them 720 (again), 1171, 720 (repeated), and 1171 (repeated)

One of the topics being discussed is the wrongness of transgender boys being allowed to compete in girls’ sport competition. Of course, they’re going to win. Not only because of female hormones can never fully suppress testosterone to the lowest point that women have testosterone, (they do, just like men have some estrogen) but their organs, muscles and bone structure are different than women – giving a male an advantage over a female – every time. I want girls to start boycotting their competitions.
Martina N. the tennis star got slammed for speaking out against transgender males competing in girls’ sports – but the Left won’t accept science. Not any science they can’t make up that is. Can you imagine a transgender getting to compete before they even started the female hormone therapy? It happened.

Cuppa Covfefe

They’ve unwittingly (or wittlessly, perhaps) brought on to themselves that which they wished most of all to avoid: Boys winning all the time. They have boys winning at boys’ sports, and boys (who call themselves girls) winning at girls’ sports. Hoist by their own retards, as it were…
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch of libtards. Sad to see that the ones who truly lose are the hard-working girl athletes and their coaches. Again, truth, justice, honesty, and hard work are sacrificed on the altar of political correctness…

Umm… yeah. I mean, I didn’t expect the infection to be metastasized into such an advanced state, but yeah… what James Damore said. Been reading enough over the last few years from the cyber side about what they’re up to on their evil intents w/ social media, and it was obvious that FAANG were going to copy them. Then it because obvious that we were supplying them tech. Now our revelation has come full circle, they’re developing our tech and weaponizing it against us. And you know Trump REALLY KNOWS what all the clowns have been up to in this. Your observations on this were just the tip of the iceberg.

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. ~ Revelation 13:16-18 KJV

I have never heard of this critter. Poor thing. I went to see a beached whale
In Goleta as a kid, and that poor thing had been really damaged. This is very odd. Goleta is just a pinch north of santa barbara.
“For the first time ever, a hoodwinker sunfish was observed in the Northern Hemisphere when it recently washed up in Santa Barbara County, researchers announced Wednesday.
The Mola tecta washed up about a week ago at UC Santa Barbara’s Coal Oil Point Reserve along Sands Beach in Goleta, the university said in a news release, describing it as one of those “out-of-nowhere, first-ever discoveries that send scientists’ hearts aflutter.”
Marianne Nyegaard of Murdoch University in Australia, who was the first to describe the rare species in 2017, made the official determination that the fish was a Mola tecta, the release stated.
“It really was exciting to collect the photos and samples knowing that it could potentially be such an extraordinary sighting,” said Jessica Nielsen, a conservation specialist at Coal Oil Point who was among the first to see the deceased fish. “This is certainly the most remarkable organism I have seen wash up on the beach in my four years at the reserve.

https://biologywise.com/list-of-human-races
The Caucasoids are further classified into various sub races such as Aryans (including some Indo-European populations), Semitic (Arabs, Hebrew speaking people), Hamitic (Berber-Cushitic-Egyptian native races), Nordic, Mediterranean, Dinaric, Alpine, Arabid, East Baltic, Turanid, Iranid and Armenoid. These sub races are primarily based upon geographic location and language

From Lynne Patton – who worked for Trump Org and is now at Housing and Urban Dev with Sec Carson.
Lynne Patton is feeling fed up.Follow
Yesterday at 12:11 PM
As someone who considered #MichaelCohen one of my very best friends for the past 10+ years – virtually inseparable during our tenure at the Trump Organization (and even prior) having credited him in countless interviews for personally introducing me to the Trump family – leading to my subsequent employment therein, and arguably, my current job – the only word that truly comes to mind this week is sad.
I am sad that Michael has elected to leverage his own personal illegal activities into nothing more than political theater this week with the sole partisan purpose of embarrassing a sitting President with unfounded personal and/or professional gossip.
I am sad that Michael would turn his back on a man to whom he has repeatedly said he owes everything in the hope of a reduced prison sentence.
Lastly, I am sad for myself.
Sad that I have wasted so much time and energy caring, supporting and loving a man I now realize I truly never knew.
If Michael Cohen had ANYTHING of substance to offer against the President of the United States, Mueller would not have rejected his plea for leniency and he would not be going to jail.
Period.
But above all, I am sad that Michael would – once again, on a world stage – levy unsubstantiated claims – particularly those of bigotry and racism – against a man who has single-handedly helped raise five of the most unbiased and open-minded children I’ve ever known. Four of whom I count among my very best friends, to date.
I stated this in my viral video back in 2015 and I’ll say it again:
As the daughter of a man born in Birmingham, Alabama, there is no amount of money in the world that would make me work for a man who I thought – or even suspected – harbored bigoted ideologies.
People who have known this man far less than I have have been offered over 7-figures to write best-selling works of fiction, yet the thought has never crossed my mind.
So, unlike others, I truly mean it when I say there is no amount of money in the world to make me either work for (nor sell-out) this family. Zero.
The bottom line is that, much like Omarosa Manigault Newman, it does not take someone 15 years to figure out someone is a racist.
Unless, of course, they’re not one.

BREAKING: Washington Post reports that VA Democrat Gov. Ralph Northam’s wife handed raw cotton to black students during a tour of the governor’s mansion and told them to imagine being a slave and having to pick the cotton.
This happened *after* the KKK/blackface photo came out.

Wasn’t Virginia tobacco land back then, not cotton? Why hand them cotton if they’re visiting the Gov’s mansion..talk about something relevant to your own State.

Sylvia, they’re so desperate to be PC that they seem to dig the hole deeper.
The curious thing is that she’s being all newly PC and showing the kids the cook house/slave quarters that previously I guess they didn’t show in the mansion tour.
She won’t even use the word, slaves, she prances around it with “enslaved people”. GMAFB
Then instead of being honest about what those particular slaves did…she jumps the shark with cotton?? It irritates me. Either be honest or shut up
