BREAKING: TRUMP THREATENS ZUCKERBERG WITH PRISON IN NEW BOOK

In his upcoming book “Save America,” Trump issues a stark warning to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg:

Trump:

“We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Trump accuses Zuckerberg of undermining him in the 2020 election, despite previously cordial relations.

He criticizes Zuckerberg’s $420 million donation to help state and local governments conduct elections during the pandemic, dubbing it “Zuckerbucks.”

This comes as Zuckerberg recently apologized for Meta’s handling of COVID-19 content moderation, admitting to acquiescing to government pressure.

The book is set for release on September 3.

“We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

The CHILLING EFFECT this will have is perfect, it’s exactly the kind of thing the Left does to us routinely, but we never return the favor.

It needs to be a TIDAL WAVE of such promises, flooding social media, so that every would-be cheater is looking over his shoulder, and weighing whether helping Lalalala cheat is worth going to prison.

scott467

The funny part is that they have to be very careful HOW they go about it, because if they just go full-Hitler (their innate reflex), they just expose themselves and all of MAGA goes “I TOLD YOU SO!!!” 😂

So their own inner-tyrant has to hold back their own inner-tyrant, lest the whole world see and recognize their inner-tyrant.

It’s kinda beautiful… 😁

As always, the BEST response would be to GO PUBLIC with the threats from government and take your chances in court. Expose their blackmail and coercion, it’s the best thing you can do.

Always, always ALWAYS call the bluff.

It’s like someone driving up to you, pulling a gun, and saying “Get in, or I’ll shoot!”

The correct response is always to RUN.

Both because a moving target is hard to hit, and because if you get in that car, you’re probably dead.

Same when the gov’t makes some covert threat.

Go public immediately.

Whatever they’re going to do to you, they’re going to try to do anyway — but if you go along with it, if you ‘get in their car’, you might as well be dead.

Just saying. We don’t allow white adults to board school buses, alone or in gangs so it’s safe react proactively be it any type of adults, regardless of race, color, sex or creed. Answer is hell no or all of them.

BTW same rules apply in all countries, even the third world. It is not an accepted practice to allow strangers on school buses world wide. No excuses.

para59r

Now are there acceptations… Yes, but only when your talking not strangers.

Valerie Curren

Perhaps the bus drivers recognize both the kids & their parents so any loitering armed adults hanging at the bus stop would ring alarm bells…

para59r

Not sure, but maybe kids waiting at a bus stop need to post themselves down the street when a bunch of strangers are hanging around at their bus stop so they can flag the bus to stop where it’s safe. This is serious stuff. I smell test run.

Watch up to the 1:18 second mark, then pause:

______________

Is it to your advantage to change your choice from Door #1 to Door #2?

They make it out like it’s a hard question, but I’m not sure it really is.

I could certainly be wrong! 😁

I will put my choice and reasoning behind the newly discovered ‘spoiler’ button (in the process, I also found where Gail and Kalbo get those giant emojis 😂 )

Edit: I had to think about it and puzzle it out for about 2 minutes. If they had asked me on live TV, and I had to give an immediate answer, I would have had to guess.

.

My choice:
So suppose, as in the video, you choose Door #1, and they reveal Door #3 is the wrong choice, and ask whether you want to switch your answer to Door #2.

I think the answer is yes.

When you had all 3 doors to choose from, whatever choice you made, you only had a 33.3% chance of guessing right, and a 66.6% chance of guessing wrong (the other two doors added together).

If they reveal that one of the two doors you didn’t pick is the wrong choice, you still only have a 33.3% chance of having guessed the correct door from the start. But if you switch your choice to Door #2, you are effectively increasing your chance of being right to 66.6%, because you are choosing a part of the “66.6%” possibility you could not originally choose, but now you can.

Your original choice still only has a 33.3% chance of being right, but the remaining unopened door (Door #2) now has a 66.6% chance of being the right choice, because it is part of the ‘group’ of 66.6% at the outset (the two doors you did not pick). Half of that 66.6% group (i.e., Door #3) has been eliminated, so if you now choose Door #2, you are effectively increasing your chances of guessing right to 66.6%, because your original choice (when there were 3 doors to choose from) could only ever have a 33.3% chance of being correct.

So the chance that your original choice (Door #1) is correct is still 33.3% (as it has been from the beginning), but the chances now are 66.6% that the correct door is Door #2.

So I think the correct answer is that you should switch from the original choice of Door #1 to Door #2.

And now, to watch the rest of the video… I hope this ‘spoiler’ thing works… 😁

My incomprehensible commentary.
You’re basically correct; I’m going to walk through it in my own inimitable lack of style.

Before they open the door you have one chance in three, odds 1:3 Afterwards, there are two cases; your chances of success in each case must be added together to get the total probability of success.

Assume you will switch:

The first case is that you initially chose the right door. Switching will doom you in this case. So the probability here is 1:3 (the chance you were right) times zero (you will not be right after switching).

The second case is that you initially chose the wrong door; switching this time will guarantee success, because the remaining door must be the correct one.. Your chances of success here are 2:3 (your chances of having been wrong) * 100 percent.

The zero from case one can be added to the 2:3 in case two to yield your new probability of 2:3. In other words, if they open a door, they’re giving you an easy way to double your odds.

Now consider NOT switching.
Case 1. you had chosen the right door in the first place. If you do nothing, you win. But your odds of being in this case to begin with are 1:3, so your probability is 1:3*1=1:3.
Case 2, You had NOT chosen the right door in the first place. If you do nothing, you lose, and your chances of being in this case to begin with are 2:3…so your probability here is 1:3*0=0

Adding these two your chances are 1:3.

1:3 if you do NOT switch, 2:3 if you do; the two numbers sum to 1.0 so it checks.

So it seems like you used math to reason through the problem, and I tried to do it using logic without math, to get to the same conclusion.

I’m not sure that’s right, it’s just my perception.

Math is not my strong point. I could do it, but it didn’t come naturally to me the way English always did, at least not from pre-algebra onward. I had straight A’s from 1st grade until 9th grade, when we began proofs, postulates and theorems, and that quarter I received the first non-A grade in my life.

Not just any “non-A” either, it was D-.

We weren’t allowed to get less than an ‘A’ at our house. It had never happened before. So when I blew that up, I blew it up real good 😂

I framed it, and put it on my dresser for the rest of the school year.

I would usually get the right answer (in proofs, postulates and theorems), but the work I showed to explain how I arrived at my answer was always wrong.

I don’t know how that’s possible, to arrive at the right answer using the wrong logic, and do it consistently, but that’s what I was doing, and the teacher wasn’t able to help me figure it out.

The next quarter, when proofs, postulates and theorems were over, I was back to “A’s” again, so it was a pretty strange looking report card at the end of the year.

But it was pre-algebra, the introduction of letters as symbols for numbers, that was my first struggle in math. y = mx + b. It froze me in my tracks. Some kind of mental block. I couldn’t bridge the gap between the alphabet and numbers.

I could understand using a letter to represent a number, but I couldn’t understand how you could know which number a letter represented, unless there was only one letter in the equation. [e.g., solve for ‘x’]

That took me about 3 weeks of thinking about it, and then suddenly it clicked, and I had no problem with it after that.

But proofs, postulates and theorems never clicked during the 9 school weeks we worked on it. I could get the right answer, but my teacher didn’t like the way I arrived at it.

So apparently I was using some other special power to derive the correct answer 😁

That happened to me once. I got issued a teaching schoolbook [don’t remember which subject] by mistake. It had the answers in the back of the book.

Because I was so smart that I didn’t need the answer book, I alerted the teacher who promptly retrieved the gold.

BREAKING: Telegram founder Pavel Durov now under investigation for child abuse against his own children.. What is going on here? French authorities have launched an investigation into claims that Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov committed “serious acts of violence” against his own son, AFP reported on Wednesday. The investigation is separate from an ongoing probe into his alleged complicity in a wide range of crimes.

2 Durov abused his son. (Blackmail. Bribe.)

If so, arrest wherever he may land. No Need To Lie. He has lotsa money. He will travel.Whatever it takes, to get the crypto keys. Hope Durov escapes France soon.

Seems Durov could coordinate his escape, via secure Telegram. Can’t make this shit up.

Western governments panicking.

Edit. Just as D-Rats accuse conservatives of what they, D-Rats are doing. Macron accusing Durov, while Macron is guilty of…? Evidence on Telegram.

Hmmmm Michigan …. separate but related anecdote, I just received 8 emails from my identity theft alert provider that my SSN has shown up on dark web (after recent news that “everybody’s” was stolen in some major hack).

i checked the alerts – 6 were related to my former addresses that would normally show up for me, but 2 were connected to an unknown name & phone # at 2 different addresses in Detroit Mi !!

i looked at my credit reports & nothing unseemly there, so I think these dark web steals *could be* election registration thefts for the MI steal that we ALL know will occur in Detroit. I placed an alert with credit agencies for potential ID theft, but now I need to figure out the nightmare of Detroit election office to see if there are bogus registrations in my name.

When Reagan was shot:

As Reagan was wheeled to the operating room, Reagan said to his doctors, “Please tell me you’re Republicans.”

About the would-be assassin, he said, “Does anybody know what that guy’s beef was?”

When Reagan regained consciousness from anesthesia, he wrote a note saying, “All in all, I’d rather be in Philadelphia.”

He wrote in another note, “Send me to L.A., where I can see the air I’m breathing.”

In yet another note to his medical staff, he wrote, “If I had this much attention in Hollywood, I’d have stayed there.”

After a nurse praised his recovery by saying, “Keep up the good work,” Reagan said, “You mean this may happen several more times?”

When a top aide told him the government was continuing to perform normally, Reagan said, “What makes you think I’d be happy about that?”

NEW — an aircraft has just crashed in al-Bulayl in Deir ez Zour, with its pilot escaping by parachute. Locals say U.S. aircraft are overlying the area. Video footage shows the parachute on the ground, in #Assad-held areas.

Looking forward to pics or video, of the aircraft.

Red parachute, seemed different. Odd. But then I am the Slow Guy.

If there is any truth to what is alleged, we’ll know soon.

RAC

Difficult to see but if one stops it at just the right place the person appears to be standing up. Confusing because I thought that the whole seat ejected with the pilot still sat in it.

kalbokalbs

The rest of the story.

When a pilot ejects from “fighter” type aircraft. Think, Goose, Top Gun. Assuming one saw the movie.

  • The canopy blows, is ejected.
  • Then the pilot seat, with pilot is ejected, (launched) from aircraft.
  • Followed by the seat and pilot separate.
  • Seat falls to earth.
  • Pilot with parachute, float to the ground / water

With more words, this splains it better than I can.

https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/aviation/a26193/how-pilots-eject-from-fighter-jet/

RAC

Didn’t know that, please excuse my ignorance
I’m beginning to doubt the story, as I’ve just now spent some time searching as much Syrian news I can find (written in English) and can only find one very short mention of it no details at at all. I don’t think they’d have any reason to hush it up, as they publish plenty about aircraft trespassing their airspace.

RAC

On the subject of trespassing airspace I see the Irish are alleging aircraft carrying arms to Israel have been using Irish airspace without bothering to apply for the special permission required when carrying arms.

kalbokalbs

When I first saw the video, assuming it is as suggested, Russia has a ‘trophy.” Also thought, MANPAD. Stinger like weapon took down a sloppy pilot / aircraft.

  • Again, if it is true, we’ll learn about that. It’ll be damning for the US.

Most of all, there should be pictures, of the aircraft, whatever type it was.

Hey guys, just a heads up that I’m heading Up North to my parents’ Cottage near Otsego Lake later today. Most of my kids, hubby, my aunt, & one granddaughter & SIL are planning to be Up there for the Holiday weekend at least w/ a few of us staying longer. Unfortunately my parents don’t feel up to making the trip again even though Mom’s formerly broken arm is healing very well.

I might be up there for about 2 weeks w/ spotty Internet access so will check in as I can.

My aunt, who is 87, is having a job interview on her road trip too. She May be able to work w/ an extension campus in MI from one of the universities in IL who could benefit from her plant expertise. Age is just a number!

Hopefully your hubby &/or kids &/or grandkids can help with that!

Our hunting shacks need serious firewood, as they’ve Never been let to go so low before. It’s a side downgrade since Dad’s hunting buddy has been so sick with cancer these last 2 years. He’s really the crack the whip guy on firewood up there.

Last year they had a gang of guys up for a weekend before hunting season & got some decent wood but when it’s cold out they go through it pretty quickly. It’s good for the souls of those mostly suburbanites to get their caveman on Up North!!!

Hubby’s supposed to be hunting the first full week of October up there & our daughter is going to attempt a “commuter” hunting season from the Cottage as a base, where I’ll be stationed to help take care of GD Lillian (who’s getting to be a real cutie!). New adventures incoming!

pat frederick

we use the firewood as our primary heat in the winter, but have the heat pump if we need it.
this is oak that needs to dry for at least a year before we use it, so we’ll store it. hubby runs the tractor and brings the loads up to the woodshed for me to stack. when we need to replenish what’s in the garage, he backs the truck up to the woodshed and i toss the wood in.
it’s good exercise though

Relaxation will Maybe happen after most people leave from this weekend. Hubby planned a work weekend up there this trip & there’s a pretty big list of tasks to tackle. I’m probably more on food prep & granddaughter watching duty (after I deal w/ bedding stuff tonight) over the work days.

Getting ready for the trip has been a lot of work & hauling stuff to/from the car is much more demanding since Josiah’s not going on this trip (he usually travels with me & helps w/ pack mule stuff). I’ve also gotta tackle the dog solo, which I’ve never actually done, so I hope she’s cooperative 🙂

Is that how You pronounce your screen name?

I’ve always said sss-thoo-loo myself 🙂

cthulhu

It’s not supposed to be pronounced by humans.

Or by any earth creature, actually….

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Assuming the letters have the same sound values as in English, it’s quite pronounceable and you don’t even have to cheat by sneaking a schwa in between C and th. Though most English speakers have to work hard to train themselves not to push that schwa in there.

If the th is actually an aspirated t, a bit trickier but still doable.

Valerie Curren

So phonetically is my guess close?

I’ve always said sss-thoo-loo myself”

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I always took that C as a hard C, like a K. I could be wrong about that. Maybe because initial c is never an “ess” sound unless it’s in front of a vowel (well, I’m hanging myself out to dry there; someone will find a counterexample). So it’s “kth” which is not that dissimilar to the sound X makes when it’s not being pronounced like Z. In fact imagine saying X (ks) with a lithp.

Valerie Curren

Oh my so that means Cthulhu AKA Cthulhu–I am using the microphone and did the 1st word with an S. sound at the beginning And the second with the KTH sound at the beginning and it spelled them both the same, what does that sound Like To the computer then? It’s kind of wild to think the computer processes both pronunciations with the same spelling. I am Up North using the tablet with the microphone setting to try to get this message to you as It’s such a pain to type on the tablet so making corrections is also a pain. But frankly the microphone is also a pain too 😂

I hope you have a great holiday weekend And I thank you very much for your helpful reply.
However It’s rather annoying if Cthulhu wants us to lisp in our minds when we think of his screen name Boy do I do I hate lisping LOL

cthulhu

I’m not the one who brought up lisping.

Valerie Curren

And that’s a good thing! 😂

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I don’t think of it as a lisp if the word is supposed to be pronounced that way. I mentioned lisping to try to help someone (you) who’s probably not used to /kth/ sounds but knows about /ks/ sounds, how to render them by reference to something they know.

Pronouncing “ducks” as /duckth/ is incorrect and a lisp, pronouncing Cthulhu as /kthulhu/ is not.

Valerie Curren

I appreciate your attempt to enlighten me 😁

cthulhu

Lovecraft, himself, likened it to a sneeze — and also spelled it “Kthulhut.”

I wore my FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT t shirt to walmart again yesterday afternoon. I got a couple of quizzical looks–mostly from men. One woman I was passing in an aisle, said she loved my shirt and wanted to get one for her husband, but everything’s so expensive now. She went on to say that she buys 2 cartons of 18 eggs regularly and used to pay $6 for the 3 dozen eggs. Now it’s $10! I got a family to feed, she said. I want him back (pointing at my shirt).

Past couple weeks, eggs around here have gone up bigly AND sign says two carton limit.

Yes, same around here. Two carton limit. Hundreds of thousands of chickens being euthanized due to the current Avian Influenza scare. IMO, it will get worse before it gets better. Might think about getting a supply of freeze-dried powdered eggs before they disappear off Amazon, etc.

i have seen more people around here with chickens in their backyards than ever before.
we have too many foxes and other animals that would love to dine on chickens, so we might inquire at one of the farms with signs selling eggs.

Trump gunman saw rally as ‘target of opportunity’, FBI official says

The gunman who tried to kill former United States President Donald Trump had mounted a “sustained, detailed effort” to attack a major gathering of some sort before deciding to target the Republican presidential candidate at a Pennsylvania rally in July, FBI officials say.
FBI officials said Thomas Crooks, 20, searched more than 60 times for information about Trump and his then-rival, Democratic President Joe Biden, before registering for the Trump rally in early July.
“We saw … a sustained, detailed effort to plan an attack on some events, meaning he looked at any number of events or targets,” Kevin Rojek, the FBI’s top official in western Pennsylvania, said in a telephone briefing to reporters on Wednesday.
Rojek said Crooks became “hyper-focused” on the Trump rally when it was announced “and looked at it as a target of opportunity”.
Rojek said the FBI has not yet been able to determine what motivated Crooks to try to assassinate Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13.
Crooks’s computer activity showed he was interested in a mix of ideologies but did not show definitively that he was motivated by a particular left-leaning or right-leaning point of view, Rojek said.
FBI officials said they had not found any evidence indicating that Crooks had worked with other people or had been directed by a foreign power.

Aubergine

Jeez, the FBI can be obtuse (or lying, I guess).

The guy searched for information about Biden and Trump, but he SHOT TRUMP.

He probably wanted to attend a Biden rally as a supporter. But Biden was/is half-dead and didn’t do hardly any. He showed up at the first Trump rally nearby him, and SHOT HIM.

Come on, guys, if you’re going to bullshit me, at least make it plausible.

Great Sand Dunes and Black Canyon of the Gunnison were national monuments when I first visited them.

Re: the wonderful Barr/Kennedy video

1) The degree and quality of consciousness on our side is a critical factor. Whatever Q was/is, consciousness was the central theme of Q. True, consciousnss-raising, even when it takes the form of “I’m only asking questions,” can be interpreted negatively, like controlled opposition or agent provocatuers. That is why every day in every way no discussion can take place without examining motivation. Lack of trust has been inculcated on our side, and there is no escaping it. It is one of the issues that our side has to deal with on an individual basis, meaning both individual speaker and individual listener.

2) Whatever else Q did, Q raised the consciousness on our side in a good way. It is impossible to see any possible negative motivations behind Q (if any) outweighing the good. Not even close, IMO, even considering that the question of Q’s motivation is necessarily part of the discussion. But then motivation is part of every discussion, every day. It has been made so by circumstances, both intentional and incidental.

3) How far our side has gone in developing consciousness is (IMO) impossible to measure. All we know is that our consciousness has gone far, and that it has not gone far enough.

4) Using myself as a measure, I can say that I understand the nature of things far better than I did five years ago or even a year ago. And so do many, many people. Just as an example, the understanding that the media is the enemy, a conduit for brainwashing and malignant propaganda, is far more widespread now than ever. That is a good thing.

5) But, to cite an opposite example, too many on our side cannot get over the idea that we are engaged in mere electoral politics. It is too much a part of their mental make-up. This is why (IMO) people get hung up on mean tweets, even when they are enthusiastic Trump supporters. The mean tweets, in their view, is related to who will vote for Trump. And while this is undoubtedly true, it is of minimal relevance in the big picture. It is missing the point. We are at war. The war is being waged against us. Do we really care if we use the words “jap” or “kraut?”

6) The USSR was running on empty for decades. There, the consciousness of the people was very high. They knew everything was a lie. They knew that the country was run only for the benefit of the top party members. But it took Chernobyl to galvanize people, to crytalize their understanding into active — don’t give a damn — freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose — defiance. The “leaders” needed to feel naked before the people, and they did after Chernobyl.

7) Part of the equation is the consciousness of the other side. And here is where the consciousness on our side is (IMO) vastly deficient, even unaddressed, even though it is critical.

8) To understand the other side’s consciousness, it is necessary to understand their fundamental motivation. What does the lowliest apparatchik/functionary have in common with TPTB?

9) The answer is sadism. From the lowliest car scratcher to the highest WEF official, the commonality is the utter pleasurable satisfaction of inflicting pain. There is literally nothing the other side does at this point which deviates from a sadistic premise. The higher ups enjoy empowering the lowlies to be sadistic.

10) Think about an m.o. on the other side, for example. Denying the truth of a matter, or pretending it does not exist, or its relevance, is a form of sadism, as is the perpetuation of lies, even absurd lies. The primary purpose of the lie is not to deceive, but to compel the audience, whether they believe it or not, to participate in the lie, to make them part of the dishonesty, to force them to collaborate with the liar. In this way, the lie makes everyone who participates in it an accomplice, a collaborator in the process of humiliation.

11) An examination of every act, from smallest to grandest, can reveal the sadism at its source. And when our side gets to this level of consciousnous, we will be ready.

12) But persuasion has limited effect, as Kennedy states. There needs to be a galvanizing event or circumstance to open minds and to achieve satori, and that will come (if ever) from God most likely.

Excellent comment!

I would go one further on the sadistic force to “participate in the lie.” This is an act of ritual magic for them. It is a “requirement” of their religion. It’s why I will NEVER use the fake pronouns they insist on.

I truly believe that they use things like the Olympic opening ceremony to gain this “participation” covertly. That farce was a ritual, and millions unwittingly participated in it.

mollypitcher5

You’re very right, hadn’t thought of like that. Here’s other ways they do it….NFL and college kneeling on national tv, a plethora of drag queen themed tv shows, substituting blacks/others portraying white historical figures, inserting gender confused kids in children’s shows and school curriculum..I’m sure there’s a ton of others

Aubergine

Good additions. Yes, there are so many ways.

pgroup2

Didn’t strike me as covert. Seemed pretty much in your face, to me.

Aubergine

Covert is in the sense that people don’t realize they are participating in ritual magic. They may think the ceremony is “weird” or “occult,” but they don’t understand that they are contributing to actual spell-casting.

“I would go one further on the sadistic force to “participate in the lie.” This is an act of ritual magic for them. It is a “requirement” of their religion. It’s why I will NEVER use the fake pronouns they insist on.”

That’s a great point.

I don’t think I even can say them.

I literally don’t know the ‘rules’ for when to say what, I couldn’t explain them if I tried, and I don’t know them on purpose, because it’s like gibberish, and you have to accept that gibberish is something other than gibberish in order to allow your mind to try to comprehend it, and I won’t.

I don’t have to, and nobody can make me, so why would I?

I will never participate in their insanity.

If for no other reason, then because I can’t make fun of them if I have ‘done it’ too.

And am not about to give up my ability to make fun of them 😂

scott467

This.

This is what instinctively repulsed me about the stupid masks, and why participating in it was a non-starter, out of the question.

I didn’t even have to consciously be able to articulate the quote above, it was instinctive. Almost animal-like.

I hate the lies, and I hate the lying.

And I mocked and humiliated the mask-wearers, by not wearing a mask, and by staring at anyone who looked at me like they were thinking about saying something.

Besides a shopkeeper who felt compelled to politely ask me to leave if I would not wear a mask in his store, not one person approached me or said a word 😁

Charlie Kirk
@charliekirk11
Jack Smith’s superseding indictment is a good excuse to remind everyone how dark and how far-reaching Smith’s legal claims are, in his frenzy to imprison Donald Trump.

Smith claims Trump broke the law based on which of his advisors he chose to believe in fall 2020. Repeat, according to Smith, Trump is a criminal because he believed advisors who told him there was fraud in 2020, and that he didn’t believe advisors who argued otherwise.

Smith claims that Donald Trump broke the law by openly and publicly organizing alternate electors, based on the idea that alternative electors were necessary to sustain his ongoing legal challenges. According to Smith, this was “fraud,” even though Trump’s team was entirely honest at all times about what they were doing and why.

Smith claims that Donald Trump broke the law by lobbying state lawmakers to convene and pass legislation he supported.

Smith claims that Donald Trump broke the law by giving a speech on January 6. He claims that, simply by calling for his supporters to “fight,” Trump was criminally inciting the people who broke into the Capitol.

Jack Smith’s goal isn’t just to score another unjustified criminal conviction against Donald Trump. His goal is to gut the First Amendment rights of all Americans, criminalize the act of contesting an election, and transform America into a Third World banana republic ruled by a Putin-style oligarchy.

It’s Jack Smith, not Donald Trump, who belongs in prison.

Kids cant even ride a school bus.

A group of about 20 migrants allegedly tried to enter a California school bus picking up students on Wednesday morning, district officials said.

The incident was one of two that occurred at a bus stop for Jamul-Dulzura Union School District students, with three men previously trying to enter the school bus on Tuesday, Fox 5 reports.

Superintendent Liz Bystedt said in a letter to parents that the group of migrants were walking in the middle of Highway 94 trying to stop one of the buses. 

Parents, however, were also at the site helping the bus driver ensure the students were safe and that none of the migrants boarded the vehicle. 

Nicole Cardinale, whose 8-year-old son was on the bus, told the outlet that it was “really scary” that the children had such an encounter.

Previous story did not have the number. 20 is much. Thanks for the update!

Good that they did not get away with it and were stopped both times. If they did, it would of been the norm and kids on school buses could easily become hostages in any number of situations if it became common place to allow invaders ride with kids going to school.

Theyll still try. Wait til Venezuelans start taking over areas like this.

Just as home security due to various foreign home invasion gangs has fallen on people so has your children’s safety in Jamul area.

the only solution, without scaring the kids, is to pay a parent to conceal carry and ride the bus

mollypitcher5

Of course that’s the logical choice but it’s Californication so that would be tricky. Technically it would be a hijack but would the parent be charged if the poor weary illegals had no weapons? Insanity rules in Ca so?

I’m not even understanding the part about bus drivers told to pass on by if there are illegals waiting at the stop…WITH the kids. So they’re instructed to leave children standing there with a bunch of men?

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.

I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.

Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.

With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.

Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. 

Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

The Glory of God – will be theirs to enjoy;
If they seek His face – in all they employ;
Grant us – Oh, Lord – a heart that is pure;
For the Pure in Heart – will surely endure!

Pepe’s Fren Zone
Fight by Guarding Your Mind
PEPE LIVES MATTER
AUG 29, 2024

We all need to be vigilant in guarding our minds in these next few months. We know that the enemy is desperate, stupid, and angry. Spiritual awakening is occurring around the planet as so much evil has been “unveiled” to those who used to remain in ignorance. This causes the IQ level of the world to continue to rise while a cry for justice to occur becomes louder. They just tried to assassinate Donald Trump and failed. Their Covid plan backfired and woke up millions. They framed Trump for treason, but this also failed miserably. If the enemy cannot bring out another event, they will certainly try to pressure all of us individually in our own unique ways. They may attack us through family turmoil, broken relationships, mental anguish, loneliness, or spiritual pressure. This is why we must all take as much accountability as we can over the thoughts we allow in our minds. The enemy will attempt to discourage us, even as we head towards another finish line in this wild journey. In many ways, warfare is inevitable. There is going to be the pain of fighting spiritual battles. But we can prolong that pain by letting the enemy enter into those thoughts and accepting them, even if only for a time. Instead, we should swiftly reject that which would deter us. Is the enemy attempting to make you feel tired and weary? Remember that God is your strength and you have already come so far. The enemy may be attempting to use subtlety in the lies so it’s harder for you to perceive them. If you are tired, the subtle deception can be: You cannot make it. But when you look back at the fact-based evidence, you’ve come much further than you, perhaps, ever thought possible. So that lie that you cannot keep going is simply untrue. The human spirit is far more capable of enduring hardship than many give it credit for. In times of trial, we shine and soar to new places. When the water rises, God raises you up as a standard. Detect the lie that is bringing you down to a low place and you’ll often find it’s such a simple thought. That thought often comes from the spiritual forces attempting to stop you, God’s warrior. Bring truth back into that headspace. Sometimes it’s even better to say it out loud. Is the enemy saying you are too tired to go on? Then remind yourself of all the trials and tribulations that you’ve overcome, with heaven by your side. No challenge is too much. You can keep going. Yes, there is fatigue. But it is not the end for you. The best days are yet to come. You must hold onto this truth. You must hold onto hope. Hope is a truth so powerful. 

So as the world looks to bring about another chaotic finale to this Trump saga we’ve all been participants and cheerleaders: Every day I suggest we all watch over our minds like a hawk. There may be chaos in the world but you can give him no victory in your mind and do what is in front of you, what you are called to do and that is a victory that the enemy simply despises. When you don’t allow them to torment you and you thrive in the face of pressure, you grow into a force that hell simply cannot stop. Let’s all finish this chapter with our heads held high. Keep going and fight, fight, fight. 

Thank you for reading and thank you for your continued support.

Six planes?

That has to be some sort of joke?

It’s not the Battle of Midway, where six planes might actually make a difference.

It’s a conflict on Russia’s border.

It’s like six planes vs. North America.

Netflix star Julian Ortega dies aged 41 after collapsing on a beach

Initial reports about his death had suggested he had drowned, but according to local English-language outlet Olive Press Spain, authorities later confirmed Ortega had gone into cardiac arrest on the shores of Zahora Beach in Barbate, Spain.

Paramedics reportedly attempted to revive the actor but he was eventually pronounced dead at the scene.

BREAKING: The DOJ is in PANIC mode that Wisconsin towns Thornapple and Lawrence have chosen to count their 2024 election ballots by hand without the use of electronic voting machines

Merrick Garland’s mafia sent a letter to the town officials, THREATENING them by “authorizing the filing of a lawsuit” unless they complied.

The Feds are trying to claim that the ONLY way disabled voters can vote is with a voting machine, which is next-level INSANITY. Apparently, no disabled people could vote before electronic voting machines were invented. In reality, they’re going after these towns because they’re setting an example for the rest of the country to follow

It also seems there’s a coordinated effort between the DOJ and a disability rights NGO because they’re arriving on the same battlefield against these towns together, “By ceasing to use electronic voting equipment and, instead, exclusively using paper ballots completed and tabulated by hand, Respondents are no longer using voting systems that are accessible for individuals with disabilities in a manner that provides the same opportunity for access and participation (including privacy and independence) as for other voters,” – Disability Rights Wisconsin in a complaint to the DOJ

Ask yourself this: Why do Democrats think towns with fewer than a thousand living in them need voting machines to count ballots? Why is the DOJ going scorched earth to make sure they use the machines?

Boar’s Head brand lunch meats is having a few problems.
https://revolver.news/2024/08/boars-head-facing-deadly-health-crisis-listeria-mold-bugs-after-implementing-refugee-work-program/
“At least nine people have died after being infected with listeria from Boar’s Head deli meats tied to a massive recall last month, federal health officials said Wednesday.”
“How does a company go from being the top dog to the bottom of the barrel so quickly? Well, you start implementing DEI practices, and in no time flat, your company begins to collapse. Just ask Boeing, Bud Light, and Harley Davidson. In other words, get woke, go broke.
Boar’s Head proudly displayed their DEI initiatives on their website, where they bragged about their programs focusing on “refugees.””
The program is called Tent Coalition for Refugees in the U.S.:
“As the U.S. welcomes tens of thousands of refugees fleeing Afghanistan, 33 major companies — including Amazon, Facebook, Pfizer, and Tyson Foods — today announced that they will join the Tent Coalition for Afghan Refugees, pledging to help create economic opportunities for Afghans as they start their new lives in America.
The new coalition is spearheaded by the Tent Partnership for Refugees, a network of over 180 global businesses integrating refugees. As part of this new commitment, some of America’s biggest employers will create job opportunities, provide training and other resources to help Afghans better integrate into the American economy — a fundamental component for Afghans’ successful resettlement in the U.S.”

ATLANTA — A tire explosion at a maintenance shop at Atlanta’s airport sent a piece of metal “flying like a missile” Tuesday morning, killing two workers and seriously injuring another.

Sources confirm to Channel 2 Action News that a tire that was being worked on inside a shop exploded, killing a Delta employee and a contractor.

The Clayton County Medical Examiner’s Office has identified the victims as Mirko Marweg, 58, of Stone Mountain and Luis Aldarondo, 37, of Newnan

PROPHETIC WORD:

JGM – A WAR IS COMING AGAINST WASHINGTON – [29 August 2024] 

[Word heard – August 28, 2024] 

My children, the Establishment in this nation is in bigger trouble than they have realized with this new puppet. Their fake campaign and their counterfeit look-a-like that is running for the seat of the president – it’s all a lie. They’re trying to hide her just like the Biden. There is no difference knowing they can’t run a real campaign and neither one of their puppets can run a true campaign against Trump. No one they have chosen can do the job because they were only looking for weak links to be their puppets with scripts that could not or would not go away from what they were being told to say. They didn’t want strong candidates, as ridiculous as that sounds, because they didn’t want anyone who would go against their design or their machine. They’ve had too many in times past that they had to dispose of, so now they’ve changed their strategy and they’re struggling with people who can’t put a sentence together on their own that makes any sense. So they will hide her more along with them still hiding the Biden. They’re overly panicked that both puppets would destroy the momentum they think they had by replacing the one puppet for the new one. By the words that will slip out of their mouths showing the world how weak their puppets or their plans really are. Well their ship is about to sink and I’m about to take the wind out of their sails. This puppet will not work just like the last one. Their strategies are not working. 

My children, the desperation that has grown in Washington and is about to get much worse than they realized hiding their puppet. It won’t work. Their scripts won’t either. She will have to go out on her own and she will fail just like the Biden. Their plans are falling apart quicker than they thought they would or could.

Evening Prayer For Forgiveness

Heavenly Father, thank You for bringing me through this day and Lord, forgive me for the times when I have wandered outside Your best will for me, instead of trusting You implicitly.
 
Thank You, that You are such a gracious Shepherd to me and that You come and rescue me even when I lose my way and stray from the path that You have laid out for me.
 
As I look back over today, I know Lord that there were things that I should have said and done differently, and times when I reacted in a manner that was not honouring Your holy name. Forgive me I pray, but thank You, Father, that You always faithfully prepared to gently bring me back to Yourself.
 
Give me a good night’s sleep I pray, knowing that there is no condemnation because I am in Christ, and may I wake up in the morning refreshed and ready to do Your will. In Jesus’ name I pray,
 
Amen.

Evening Prayer For Future Guidance

Heavenly Father, as I lie down to sleep tonight, I pray that You would guard my sleeping and protect my mind from wandering thoughts and unnecessary planning. Teach me to wait for Your perfect timing and not to try to plan my future in my own strength.
 
Lord, I know that You have scheduled every day of my life. Help me to trust You in all things and rely on You to lead me along the straight path and guide me in the direction that You would have me to go.
 
Give me patience to wait for Your perfect timing, and may I not trust in my own abilities and scheming, but rather rest in Your love and trust my future into Your hands.
 
And so now Lord, I commit this night to you, asking that I would rest soundly and wake refreshed and strong to do Your bidding. This I ask in Jesus’ precious name,
 
Amen.

Prayer Of Thanksgiving In The Evening

Praise Your holy name Heavenly Father, for granting yet another day in my life and for being with me every step of the way. Thank You for the many blessings that You have provided and the love and fellowship that I have with the friends and family that in Your grace You have placed in my life.
 
My heart is so thankful for all the many blessings that I enjoy day by day, and today I am once again reminded that Your mercies are new every morning and Your faithfulness endures from generation to generation.
 
Thank You, that I have been brought into Your family and have been made a child of God and a citizen of heaven. Words cannot express my love and devotion to You Lord
 
I pray that You would watch over me as I rest tonight, and that You would give me a restful nights sleep so that I may wake up in the morning refreshed in body and spirit and ready to do Your will. Guard all those that I love and may we all grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ in the days that lie ahead. This I ask in His precious name,

#BREAKING: CNN releases the FIRST clip of their Kamala Harris and Tim Walz interview. What a joke.

Dana Bash: “Generally speaking, how should voters look at some of the changes that you’ve made that you’ve explained some of here in your policy? Is it because you have more experience now when you’ve learned more about the information? Is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel comfortable and confident that what you’re saying now is going to be your policy moving forward?”

Kamala Harris: “Dana, I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed. You’ve mentioned the Green New Deal. I have always believed — and I’ve worked on it — that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time. we did that with the Inflation Reduction Act. We have set goals for the United States of America And by extension, the globe around when we should meet certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, as an example. That value has not changed. My value around what we need to do to secure our border. That value has not changed. I spent two terms as the attorney general of California prosecuting transnational criminal organizations, violations of American laws regarding the passage — illegal passage of guns, drugs, and humans beings across our border. My values have not changed.”

Tree rats. They cause tens of thousands of dollars of damage to homes.

It didn’t look like it was tucking the hands and feet in so it could be carried to me, because the hands and feet came right back out when the squirrel picked it up anyway.

It looked to me like the baby squirrel had fallen out of the tree, and the mama squirrel was checking it for damage, turning it every way and touching it everywhere, looking for a pain response.

When it seemed like the baby was okay, then the mama squirrel picked it up and took it back up to the nest.

If it had suffered some sort of serious injury, maybe the mama squirrel would have left it, I don’t know.

I could be completely wrong, that’s just how it looked to me 😁

Nice move with the switchblade.

scott467

I can do much more damage than that 😁

Wolf Moon | Threat to Demonocracy

I do agree that it seemed to check for damages a bit. But after that, it did seem to “ball up” the baby until it was similar to a walnut in size, which is something commonly carried by squirrels. In doing so, it ended up grabbing the baby by loose skin on the side of the rib cage, which is actually an excellent place to grab. This then caused the baby to remain somewhat balled up when travelling upwards on the tree trunk.

IMO this is an evolved behavior which minimizes damage to the infant and has the best chance for success returning the infant to the nest. It also leverages evolved feeding behaviors. it’s all very smart, because it is smart, the smartest part being simply THAT IT WORKS.

Humans tend to ball up infants in their arms as well, but then carry them “back down” instead of “back up”, because we’re bipedal.

  • Israel largely out of control, doing their part to foment WW III.
  • Reported 50% of USN in the ME. NOTE. That does Not allow the other 50% to deploy. They are mostly in maintenance…can’t get underway.
  • No carrier in the Western Pacific (Asia area). Forty plus years, I have never known this to happen.

Of course there is much more unchecked lawless actions across the country.

They seem no different in that regard to other groups of people I know ‘in the real world’.

Either they are on autopilot, living in the Twilight Zone and oblivious to what’s going on in the country (and the world), or socially, they are too afraid to say anything that could possibly be perceived by others as either ‘political’ or ‘controversial’ (essentially the same thing, since everything controversial is ultimately controversial because of politics).

They want to avoid politics, but when the enemies of truth, freedom, etc. make literally everything political — including truth — then you can’t avoid it, you have to deal with it.

And they won’t.

And they don’t like it when I talk about the 800lb. elephant in the gorilla room.

Military official tells US’ Sullivan Taiwan is Beijing’s ‘uncrossable first red line’

On last day of China trip, Sullivan says the US values its ‘commitment to freedom of navigation in the South China Sea’: White House

What really happened…

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/pla-will-reunify-taiwan-chinese-general-confronted-sullivan-just-surprise-xi-meeting

From Zero Hedge. PLA Will ‘Reunify’ Taiwan: Chinese General Confronted Sullivan Just Before Surprise Xi Meeting

Chinese leader Xi Jinping met with US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on Thursday at the end of the latter’s three day trip to Beijing, which is a first such trip for a sitting US national security adviser in eight years.

But the most interesting and tense moment came just before that, when Sullivan met one of China’s vice chairs of the Central Military Commission, Gen. Zhang Youxia. The top general confronted Sullivan on growing US support for Taiwan’s military. Zhang informed Sullivan that reunification of Taiwan with the mainland is “the mission and responsibility” of the Chinese PLA military and that it won’t be deterred. Sullivan looked nervous and unsettled throughout the whole encounter, with Zhang confident and beaming…

The article ends with Sullivan saying “this will be the last meeting between the two nations before the election.” What was not said is the meeting was really about Sullivan telling the PLA that we are now disarmed in the Pacific.

to wit…

Should China decide to act on this, and there’s little reason they won’t if they know Trump is coming back, it should make for a great huge distraction that will help them steal the 2024 election as all kind of saber rattling noises can be made and there’s much potential for martial law waiting in the wings with this given the number of China Invaders that will be here when it all kicks off.

In just the last few weeks, at least six teenaged football players have died. Their grieving families are now calling for better safety measures that may have helped save their sons.

Ryan Craddock told NBC’s Sam Brock that his 13-year-old son, Cohen, had only been playing organized football for a year when he died due to a head injury sustained during practice.

13-year-old football player died during practice. He’s part of a national trend

There were 16 football fatalities in 2023, according to the annual report from the National Center for Catastrophic Sport Injury Research.

Of those deaths, three were due to traumatic injuries while 10 were related to exertion or medical issues like sudden cardiac arrest, heat stroke, aneurysms or asthma.

better safety measures…..too late for the ones required to take the JAB to play sports.

For measure, some may recall my anxiety when my then 17 year old gs got a concussion during practice from a very light tumble. He’s had so many things now, many we’ve talked about here.

Assuming Trump gets in the WH, the entire country will learn Jabs are poison. Injuring AND killing folks of all ages.

Covidiot Jabs will be banned. Big Pharma will be in for a world of shit. Investigations and massive lawsuits.

We’ll see which fork in the road the US takes.

The Ukrainians have evidently lost one of their brand-new “game-changer” F-16’s and its pilot.

They may have shot it down themselves.

In the meantime, there’s fun in Brazil.

“Rogue” Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes threatened to imprison X’s legal representative in Brazil if she didn’t make X do as he said, so she quit. De Moraes seized her bank accounts anyway and demanded that X provide another legal representative — but, get this, nobody wants the job.

Feeling his leverage slip away, de Moraes decided to block the financial accounts of Starlink (a different company). Brazil is practically the textbook example of a country that needs satellite internet — large parts of it are impassible. I just attended a fish meeting presentation where a guy was supposed to visit an outpost up a river for several days and only managed a few hours because it took so long to get there [When he did finally get there, he could check his email — because of Starlink.]. Musk is saying that he won’t shut Starlink down in Brazil……yet……

Killings of invasive owls to ramp up on US West Coast in a bid to save native birds https://t.co/uHZh4jLbZd

Wonder if a similar approach would work to save native Spaniards, British, French, Swedes, Germans, Americans, etc.?
