After silence, I was invited by that lady in the picture for a talk. The waiter was very kind and brought me a glass of fresh carrots juice :
Yes, catching a fly before falls in the cup or even worst, landing in the soup is not an easy task, what you think? What I am trying to do is exactly that by warning you dear friends, not to enter a declining spiral regarding your freedom of expression and freedom of your spirit.
My observations are the following: worshiping human gods is not the best idea, and changing the horse is not equal with changing the saddle. There’s no policy making without intrigues, therefore nobody is clean and pure who is involved in politics, the influencing factors are tremendous and dirt is abundant, with skeletons in many cabinet wardrobes.
Slowly, this place will become a place of worshiping Putin, Lavrov, Shoigu, everything Russian and even Soviet as in the old days of Brezhnev when I visited the Soviet Union, giving the impression that all is good and lasting as long as they are at the helm because nobody else is capable of doing the right job.
That sounds indeed pessimistic for someone who loves Russia.
The other such worshiped brother is China, as if that one party ruled country is so clean and perfumed as the ass of a newborn baby after mother changed the used diaper. Of course, there is the perfection immortalized in a system envied by the whole world – according to many views here – a view which I cannot share and accept (but that is me and my rebellious character).
Is Russia, China and Iran indeed so close to each other in every sense? You may say yes, as long there is the old (actual)empire ship dominating the waters. And what can we see beyond that? I can see partners who are dealing with each other and dealing with the empire even if Russia is bent to sanctions. And there is the Covid, an issue which all agree upon.
Interesting how eager are people to let behind a well-known anguishing ship catching a new ship arriving at the horizon just for the sake of survival. How much better will be on the new ship nobody knows for sure. The simple idea of business as usual is not even taken into account, because that would mean a presumption of merge of those two ships – this, actually very obvious fact, is not taken in consideration by many. Let’s better have the dream untouched as long as it is there in the blue then we shall decide later on what is the real thing when everything gets clearer, but will it that be in the near future?
The west of course, is the evil incarnate with vultures and horns at every street corner… with Germany being in the first place, according to some recent articles found here. And I didn’t mention USA, what?
And Britain? The list could continue back to the Roman Empire and beyond, including Alexander the Great and the Babylonian Empire, not forgetting the hordes of Attila – the leader of a part of my ancestors.
One after the other, the evil leading countries arrived at the cafe table, noted on papers by visitors, left behind to be read while the waiter has to be kind and serve everybody, without even being thanked for that. At this stage I wonder who’s the fool and who’s the wise man(be it she or he) with so much licking going around, not just in the cafe. I’m concerned that the main and strongest character of this site – in particular of this cafe – that of having a critical thinking, is suffering from loss of face, loss of color if you will, with so much appreciation directed towards a few entities on the entire world stage, thus riding a horse which is a pale one and above all, very ambiguous.
As you didn’t notice until now, or not yet, ever since 1991, the world is going in one direction, and that is globalization with all its consequences we are currently witnessing on our skin. I don’t think you need exclusive proof from me to find out what that really means today.
Not willing to open your mind when you are allowed to do it, is your fault, not being allowed to do it, means something different but hopefully will not happen soon although we shall survive everything, even our bodies.
Note: All the above lines are my own subjective views and I may be wrong. My concerns about future are not so essential, being alone it has less impact on me, but the large majority of you have a family, children and grandchildren, so your concern is much greater and I understand that.
Excellent Halloween post, my friend!
There may be all kinds of disagreement here on almost everything…..but I am pretty sure, after carefully gaging emotions, will, intellect, desires, incantations, spells, fears and dreads…there is ONE thing we can all agree on this Halloween Evening:
Orange Moon Bad!
Furthermore, from the Left Perspective at least……….”There’s A Bad Moon ……..On The Right”
https://youtu.be/_a83vvYhkjA
Well, that’s how they see it, anyways.
Me? I’ve had enough to drink for one night….and it’s time to be headin’ home. My main worry is: Will I make it there in time? Or will I have to pull off by the side of the road and go in the bushes???
Wait! Did I hear that singer accurately?
Yes!: “There’s A Bathroom On the Right!”
Happy Halloween!
Happy Halloween to you too and take care, don’t excite yourself too much on the 4th…then thereafter.
it’s me ioan
My dear ioan
Your post is a tour de force. I can’t believe no one has responded to you: it stood alone for so long, and now I return, having had a busy day with family; I see Bro has responded.
Thank You for coming in from your place of silence and suffering, in order to make your valuable, honorable speech.
Conflict, from confligere: to strike together; from friction to sparks to fire
and new beginnings
We are in the Vineyard where the objective is to stop the empire’s war on Russia.
Only now some are realising the empire is turned against us
You have been a faithful, valuable and generous contributor here for a very long time ioan. You’ve seen and heard it all. Also in your own life and places of birth and residences.
As such, you are unique.
As is each one of us, with glorious gifts and more than a few frailties. Plus experiences.
What you have come to know, and share with us here, is wisdom; more precious than gold, diamonds, rubies.
Take care, with eternal gratitude from a strange bird, a “Dutch Babuška”
Babuška, I spelled your name incorrectly yesterday, apologies ! Re : ‘I can’t believe no one has responded to you,’ give it time, perhaps some are momentarily stunned, but will surely return as tour de force unison …
My comment at the end of yesterday’s Cafe also was not responded to, but above.
Kinterra, paradoxically, wisdom will reach you via the company you have chosen, but in future times.
In fact, for me you are a mind rattler and I’m not shy to tell that I’m learning from your posts, thank you.
Spelling schmelling it really doesn’t matter and there’s no need to apologise.
It’s funny isn’t it, with my roots I ‘should’ be Oma. However, I grew up with some very seriously ferocious grandmothers in our slave state multi culti of the fifties and onwards with the culmination of a case which was sensationalised in the crass media as ‘the worst case of child abuse in Australian history’ in which I encountered an indomitable Baka. From her I needed to learn…if I take on the name…
Anyhoo, I recall a conversation in the last Café, I think, about the sword of truth, which is indeed the same as the sword of love that Christ wields.
I must run to next appt. more later
Dear Babuška, those lines of mine are not quite a tour de force but thank you for your genuine friendship so much valued here by cafe-istas.
Wise words and good caution dear Ioan. We are looking for saviors in all the wrong places.
love k
Yes, we must to be cautious and prepared for any changes it may come…and I know you know that.
dearest ioan,
Can I disagree a little with you – with one sentence?. It’s this one ” the world is going in one direction, and that is globalization with all its consequences..”
I must admit, I see it a little differently. I think “globalisation” has been on some agenda’s for quite a while. I think we see it in the devastation and destruction wrought by USA on any nation which tried to stand against the globalising monsters.
All across the Andean Continent, in every nation, the “Pink tide” of more humane, inclusive cultures has been attacked and wiped out by the dominant monster, the Predators of the human race, currently residing in Washington.
We have seen their attacks world over, and we have seen the results – it’s to put nations under one control.
But even more, they have succeeded in their cultural domination.
While standing gazing out of a window in the University at Vladivostok, I watched a young man hurtling past, downslope, on a skate board. He was wearing some sort of baggy pants, hanging from his hips down to his knees. A long loose t-shirt with a NYU insignia hung off his shoulders, and a baseball cap turned backwards on his head. He could have been any kid across USA. He was clearly 100% Chinese. !!
Go to any supermarket, anywhere in the world. Australia, NZ, Ecuador, Russia, France, — They are identical. Oh, language, currency signs, change. But every one is the same as any in US – except other nations have good fruit and veg sections. US doesn’t seem to know what they are.
My last job in Aus was teaching Aged Care Cert III students. Two were from Goa. I asked – because their English was so flawless – what they spoke at home. “English”. Yes, I said, but in your homes among family. “English”. What about native Goanese? No-one speaks it any more. !!
Thats globalisation.
Even in the sovereign nations, like Russia, across cities, you can see MacDonalds, Starbucks, and such.
The whole disaster of “multiculturalism”, of inviting in peoples of totally alien culture, racial character, mental outlook and mindset, to live among you, as if you were all identical, was being practised across the Anglo nations at the same time, under control of one hand playing the puppet strings.
These are all “globalisation”.
What I do see now, is the beginnings of “turning it around” .
National pride is growing; – in Russia, in China, in the other sovereign nations. It’s a slow process, yes. As we used to say “You can’t turn the Titanic around in a storm on sixpence” { A very tiny, thin silver coin once found in UK}.
I do agree that “Globalisation” was the aim, and it got to a very dangerous point. But I think it hit a rock – called National Identity. Those nations who have this in spades have managed, just in time, to stop it.
I am hopeful – I see it being stopped, slowly yes – but it will stop. It tried to run afoul of one of the basic laws of the Universe you see. And that non-one, not even the Predatory Class of the AngloZionists, can stop.
I hope our seeing you here a little more indicates some improvement in your health dear ioan. Best wishes to you.
Dear Pamela
Have you heard about the latest Australian Defence Bill?
https://realnewsaustralia.com/2020/10/18/new-bill-to-allow-foreign-forces-and-troops-to-be-used-on-australian-soil/
No Babuska I had not heard. Dear God. It’s horrific. Is there any outrage? Any chance people will rise up in outrage to stop it? Yes God’s. My daughter still lives there. Her husband which is Dutch finally traced his very sick mother to a hospital. He isn’t allowed to fly home to see her perhaps for the last time. The outrageous treatment being metered out to the people there is sickening. And yet it seems they are loving it. I’ll never understand them.
More good news for us dear Pamela
On yesterday’s news I read that the pm is again holding fast with his purchase/notion of mandatory injections: no exemptions
Strangely, this morning I went in quick search of the article and could not find it.
Meanwhile, Germany stands with us
SMH: “Germany refuses to turn a ‘blind eye’ to China”
What could possibly go wrong?
Dear Pamela, of course you can disagree, that’s a natural and desirable behavior here, we are humans not robots, that’s the way we learn from each other and respect each other.
You touched the very interesting and sensible parts of globalisation: multiculturalism and national identity (pride)
I even agree with you that they are growing but how much are they under control or how long can they resist under financial and social pressure?
Well, ioan, I guess we can’t know for sure how long they can resist, but one thing about Russia, China, Iran and N.Korea is this, I think.
It’s that they have already tasted what the Empire Predators want to do to them. With the horrific wars Russia has already had to wage on her own soil, with the last still in living memory, when poverty went from less than 2% to 50%,; China never forgetting the Opium Wars; Korea never forgetting the utter carnage wrought on her by America bombers, who so decimated the land the pilots are on record as saying they were looking for somewhere to bomb, but everywhere was flattened already; with Iran remembering the misery of living under the US puppet Shah – I think they know they are fighting for their very existence.
And I think they have what it takes to fight back.
I read a lot of Russians writing in Russia, and their attitude to Empire and UK and Europe is one of awareness and contempt. I dont think they’ll be fooled again.
I live in hope. :-)
Hi ioan, so good to see you and I’m late to the party. Yes, I like the ships moving about analogy, Rich analogy and it created mind pictures for me. Lots of thinking allowed here and you are a master at creating such space.
Let me add a very mixed metaphor – no, the grass is not always greener on the other side and that pale horse might eat it anyways. Yet, I do think we are breaking old bonds here … bonds that people were forced into, for survival years past. There are no sureties, securities or safeties. We’re bobbing around on the boats – but a few boats – feels they’ve found a direction and so far I say very guardedly, that direction looks like it has winds behind the sails and a captain at the helm. This is a very young process, literally fledgling. I still have my money on humanity – don’t know why but I think we have some ‘wild strain’, that is not going to let go, until there is a level of freedom.
Story about boats. We were sailing and I was at the helm. Beautiful day – far off into the ocean. We hit a corner of the Bermuda Triangle and boom, all of the electronics disappeared, just in a moment! So, nothing .. no speed, no course, no direction, no electronic steering, nothing – and this boat with people on. The non-electronic compass needle was whirling around and around and I lost it and screamed for help – one of those very dangerous moments. (My husband is the true sailor). So I shrieked No Instruments! and he came running up .. shouting .. Sail your course!, and I wailed .. I have no course to sail – no compass. And here is where hard experience came through. As he came running he calmed immediately seeing the emergency and said to me, look at the telltails on your sails – thats your wind (of course I knew that but by that time I was white with fear and everything was out of my head). So he just sang it out to me … Focus on a cloud – sail for it – watch the telltails – pick another cloud, slight course correction, – keep your boat balanced – telltails = wind, cloud = temporary point of focus.
So, I tell this story knowing that we are in the Bermuda Triangle, where everything changes. We have only some telltails on the sails to let us know if we have wind and how strong, and a course. And we only have a cloud as a temporary point of focus and this needs to be constantly adjusted – and all this just to sail our course. There are not even any course changes plotted in here.
Scary stuff in our world.
ioan -top form.
A commentator in Moon of Alabama provided the following news:
Russia ready to work with any new US administration — Putin
I could remember Putin and/or someone else in the Kremlin saying years ago that the USA was “not agreement capable”, and two or three weeks ago Lavrov announced that dialogue with the West (presumably including the USA) might end. Why this all of a sudden?
It’s automatic “diplomatic – speak” joey. It means nothing. Probably when they’re saying this, their brain is on automatic and their actually thinking of something meaningful and necessary they are working on.
Taking any notice is like thinking you can estimate the engineering and wood beetle condition of a house by looking at the wallpaper.
In case the mods are uncomfortable with file upload.
A tale of two pictures:
Picture 1: A grateful Ukrainian general offering a Cossack shashka sabre to the US ambassador Tefft. The general is desperate for his country to join the West – hence the uncommonly humiliating posture.
https://www.sott.net/article/279800-US-and-Ukraine-a-master-slave-relationship-A-picture-says-more-than-a-thousand-words
Picture 2: A grateful Russian ambassador bowing before the funeral monument to the Croatian mini Fuehrer and war criminal Franjo Tudjman responsible for the ethnic cleansing of 300,000 Serbs from the Republic of Serb Krajina. More importantly, Tudjman’s political parents—Croatian Nazi Ustashe—were the most determined enemies of Russia (as opposed to the Americans who have been nothing but friendly to the Ukrainians). They had killed thousands of Red Army soldiers and civilians at Stalingrad and were never taken to task for it. The ambassador is desperate for his country to join the West – hence the uncommonly humiliating posture.

Anubis,
Regarding the photo of the Russian ambassador in Croatia, I don’t think we should read too much into it.
This particular diplomat, Andrej Nesterenko, is known for his gaffes and mistakes.
He worked alongside Lavrov as spokesperson for Russian foreign ministry Moscow. He made an inaccurate announcement regarding the S300 export to Iran. (He confirmed that they were to be delivered after US sanctions when in fact the opposite was true) and he was demoted.
https://www.jutarnji.hr/vijesti/hrvatska/iz-podgorice-u-zagreb-ljut-putinov-igrac-za-svade-s-eu-novi-je-ambasador-rusije-u-hrvatskoj-15015238
Following the scandal in Moscow, he was sent as ambassador to Montenegro. There, his clumsy tenure resulted in billboards being brought up to remind him that NATO colony “sovereign Montenegro” did not appreciate his interference in their affairs.
https://www.slobodnaevropa.org/a/billboard-targets-nesternekos-negative-behavior/27162587.html
Maybe indeed Russia has fascist elements OR this stunt by Nesterenko in Croatia is simply another unfortunate blunder, in a long series of blunders, by a bumbling, fumbling civil servant….
Thanks for that “heads up” Serbian girl.
It’s strange that it never seems to occur to people that from any nation, no matter it’s high standing in most matters, it is bound to have it’s own compliment of the incompetent; mistakes and muck-ups.
Always possible for certain minds to interpret them as having deep and sinister and meaning, whereas in truth, they’re just another bit of stupidity.
Exactly Pamela! Lol!
Hanlon’s razor: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
“Hanlon’s razor: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
But what about conspiracies? lol
Just joking.
Enjoying this cafe very much so far!

At least you are not questioning the comparison between the Ukrainian quisling and the Russian ambassador (who of course is not allowed to utter a word without express permission by his bosses). And of course this would be fine if it were the first. Unfortunately, it has been happening for a long time – ever since Stalin’s support for the Ustashe pre WWII and Putin’s awards to the Croats post Oluja. But, as I said, the Serbs carry on – it disgraces the memory of Stalingrad – nothing I can do about that.
Anubis,
I’m sorry I didn’t mean to sound flippant.
May I point out that there are currently many countries that are ruled by the ideology which Russia fought against at Stalingrad and yet Putin still engages with them…
Let us assume that the Russian ambassador’s obsequiousness in Croatia was not a blunder (Btw you claim that he cannot utter a word without express permission from his boss- but he has done precisely that on previous occasions).
How is he supposed to pay respects to the founding president of Croatia without paying respect a fascist and a war criminal?
He can’t.

An interview via podcast with the eminent, most cited and awarded Bacteriologist and epidemiologist Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi about the political reactions to the supposed Covid-19 and the damage masks are doing.
It’s a “must listen”. Because you wont get a more expert opinion on saving your life than this.
I would add, there is an aspect of mask wearing that just occurred to me. I spent 12 yrs working as a full time pediatric nurse. And one thing I know is this.
As babies become aware of others, and are held and talked to – they look at their face. Not their eyes. If you catch a babies eye, and stare them in the eye, they start crying and screaming. They dont look into Mummy’s eyes when she is talking and smiling to baby. They look at her mouth. This is the first instinct along with the grip — the inbuilt automatic hard grip onto anything which a baby has.
They respond to the smile, and the facial expression – they react in the same way. It’s the first, most basic part of development, normal, growth, of us all. When mummy smiles at the baby, the baby cooes and smiles back.
Of those poor mothers who think they have to wear a mask covering their face – they are damaging this first ability to respond to others. God only knows what developmental damage they are doing, – but if it turns out it gives rise to an increase in psychopaths and sociopaths 20 yrs down the track – I wont be surprised.
Oh but the mothers are encouraged to ‘incentivise’ mask wearing as normal and play ‘peek-a- boo’ with their children and whip off the mask. And hold zoom virtual ‘playdates’ to interact with other children.
Every chance now I say to people here in Oz – ‘Its politics not about health.’
Sometimes I get a knowing smile but mostly I get a blank look.
Helen Buyniski writes an excellent article on ‘faceless parents – form of child abuse that may destroy an entire generation’.

Yes babushka, but don’t forget Putin and Xi are on board with the con-vid.
Never forget.
My sincere apologies for not including the link – my only excuse that I posted this late last night while tired and forgot. {Not that unusual, I so often forget the link :-) }.
However, scroll down and sandinED found it on GlobalResearch.ca and has linked it. Thanks sand. :-)
Here’s one link I wont forget:
https://newtube.app/user/TrueTube/2ocfxrR?fbclid=IwAR3fOBrEQ_FW6nL8wKvozyFtBi-LFC-zq9h-WGGACu03cwh9nMoxbwZf_ks
You have to copy/paste it, but I just tested it, and it works.
It is a reading from an open allegation of massive corruption against named perpetrators, most of whom we know of, for collusion in a massive scam to control humanity, i.e. the Covid-fake “Panic-demic”
I dont know if it’s true. The writer claims to be an ex-UN staffer whistleblower, revealing acquired knowledge.
I dont accept the stuff about “transhumanism” – I never have. However, that’s not to say there are not some fools who think they can actually create mechanical monster “humans” and wouldn’t try. But there is much to be said for the allegations made against the leaders of the AngloZionist Empire and vassals, like France and Germany and UK.
I’d suggest watching / listening, if only to add to ones store of knowledge; to file away to refer back to when assessing future events. It might be helpful.
For example, the one thing that has me accepting that there is indeed ‘something wrong” with those pushing the Covid narrative is not only it’s extreme irrationality, it is also the refusal by these governments to accept what now thousands of Doctors and Biological, epidemiological and human psychology scientists are telling them – that they are wrong, are killing people, and must stop immediately. Instead, they are “ramping up”. .
Also supportive of the allegations is the massive censorship being exerted on populations; the wiping clean of all and any person offering solid support to the above allegations, the refusal to listen to any opposing voice;, the ownership of all media; the lies and distortions told — these are telling their own tale of corruption and manipulation for some agenda’s ends.
Anyway, Perhaps, just listen, it’s only 20 minutes, and make up your own minds.

Welcome back Paul
It’s so good of you to share your many and various offerings, in times of great turmoil. I fully understand your need to focus on your own family and activities, as I do the same.
For today we read of the passing of Sean Connery- may he rest in eternal peace.
How evocative is the music selection here- when we were young and sashayed to these siren songs :-)
For every one of me who has enjoyed /been inspired your offerings here Paul, I’m sure there are many more.
Thank You again
Ah the early 007 movies… how we laughed at the oh so naughty double meanings and Mr Bond always gets the gal.
But it was the 60s when we could still have fun.

Lovely.
Some timeless nostalgia from the 60’s… and thought for today.
When Tom Springfield wrote “The Carnival Is Over” for The Seekers, he set his lyrics to an old Russian folk song, “Senka Razin”.This clips starts out with the Russian song and is followed by several “Carnival” performances by The Seekers over the years.

@Babushka in Oz
I only say “Diamonds are Forever” where 007 destroys the moon-scenery when he needs the moon-rover for his usual rather straight forward purposes – and finally also got rid of that funny odor, in hindsight in many ways a very prophetic movie.
Connery was THE Bond man – not yet fooled by the whole tech toy blinking, knowing full well, it’s the man who counts and of course being the most charming to his numerous female counterparts who weren’t yet cyborg like war machines as they are portrayed today (also two symbols who cannot be combined, because of the rules of Vishnu or black Madonna who can only laugh at such childish imaginations..)
It is also said that Jan Fleming was directly involved in the Hess story (Irving !) and being a high member of the MI6.
HDan
The problem being that in the sixties my generation were still innocent to all the propaganda sprouted in bond movies… that changed with the Vietnam war and we marched in protest.

Well, in terms of 25%’s, my comment anyway, made a leap, in both space and time, travelling the circuitous route, without a leap year !
My friend, you have a sharp mind, you got the meaning of the pale horse ( or death horse ) right.
A few excerpts from this interesting article
The Great Reset for Dummies
Tessa Lena
October 28, 2020
What is “the Great Reset”?
The Great Reset is a massively funded, desperately ambitious, internationally coordinated project led by some of the biggest multinational corporations and financial players on the planet and carried out by cooperating state bodies and NGOs. Its soul is a combination of early 20th century science fiction, idyllic Soviet posters, the obsessiveness of a deranged accountant with a gambling addiction—and an upgraded, digital version of “Manifest Destiny.”
The mathematical reason for the Great Reset is that thanks to technology, the planet has gotten small, and the infinite expansion economic model is bust—but obviously, the super wealthy want to continue staying super wealthy, and so they need a miracle, another bubble, plus a surgically precise system for managing what they perceive as “their limited resources.” Thus, they desperately want a bubble providing new growth out of thin air—literally—while simultaneously they seek to tighten the peasants’ belts, an effort that starts with “behavioral modification,” a.k.a. resetting the western peasants’ sense of entitlement to high life standards and liberties (see awful “privilege”).
[…]
The psychological reason for the Great Reset is the fear of losing control of property, the planet. I suppose, if you own billions and move trillions, your perception of reality gets funky, and everything down below looks like an ant hill that exists for you. Just ants and numbers, your assets.
Thus, the practical aim of the Great Reset is to fundamentally restructure the world’s economy and geopolitical relations based on two assumptions: one, that every element of nature and every life form is a part of the global inventory (managed by the allegedly benevolent state, which, in turn, is owned by several suddenly benevolent wealthy people, via technology)—and two, that all inventory needs to be strictly accounted for: be registered in a central database, be readable by a scanner and easily ID’ed, and be managed by AI, using the latest “science.” The goal is to count and then efficiently manage and control all resources, including people, on an unprecedented scale, with unprecedented digital anxiety and precision—all while the masters keep indulging, enjoying vast patches of conserved nature, free of unnecessary sovereign peasants and their unpredictability. The king’s world feels far more predictable and relaxed when the chaos of human subjectivity is contained for good.
Plus, as a potentially lucrative aside, a bunch of these tightly managed “assets” can be also turned into new financial instruments and traded. Game on!
In other words, it’s an “efficient” global feudalism that goes much farther than its medieval brother since the scanner is all-seeing: every person, every mineral, and every berry is digitally tagged and tracked. Under that framework, every peasant has a function that is derived not from the mystery of life, and not from their inner calling—but from AI, the master of efficiency and the servant of the king. Ideally, the peasants can be convinced that it’s good for them (or necessary to be safe, see “contact tracing”) and that this is what progress and happiness are like—but if not, there are other ways, from classic violence to virtual prisons to “morality pills.”
The reform in question is meant to disrupt all areas of life, on a planetary scale: government, international relations, finance, energy, food, medicine, jobs, urban planning, real estate, law enforcement, and human interactions—and it starts with changing the way we think of ourselves and our relationship with the world. Notably, privacy is a huge thorn in the collective eye of our “great resetters”—and—as I am typing this, they are pushing their sweet talking points about how privacy is really an outdated concept—especially when it comes to people’s medical data, sheesh—and that we simply cannot move forward with the bright future if silly people keep clinging to their privacy.

The Great Reset for Dummies, global feudalism on the agenda, but you must surely know by now, that those with another opinion, will stick to it, and furthermore thou shalt obey their command !
Thanks for the link, will read.
Read it in full. Thanks. Many years ago I recognized “High Tech Feudalism”. Those who create “real” capital will prevail.
Well, here we are approaching The Day, Der Tag. In my opinion election day will be a certifiable madhouse. I expect to see massive voter intimidation, ballots and ballot machines destroyed, citizens beaten and in general by the end of the day on the Left Coast, the landslide of Trump victory will be pilloried and denigrated to the max. Ballots will be counted for up to two seeks after the election, ergo a certified winner won’t be announced until then. In the meantime, massive amounts of ‘uncounted’ ballots will be ‘discovered’ and the screams to count them will begin. In the end, I have few doubts that SCOTUS will have to step in and end the madness, just like it did back during the idiotic ‘hanging chad’ deal in Florida in Bush/algore election.
Auslander
Dear Auslander,
I have quite the same ideas as you about what is going to happen. It ain’t going to be pretty, and for the whole world to see will resemble a third world nation. Color revolution in the USA, who would’ve thought that.
You know what frightens me more? The idea that SCOTUS has to step in will not end the madness.
It might be the beginning of it. Expect something in the line of the movie ‘The Purge’, especially when Trump will be declared winner.
(Just a funny thought, will Gaylord Guaido also be involved here? ;-))
Cheers, Rob
Rob, all it will take is SCOTUS stepping in and making a decision on a court case, thus freeing up enforcement organizations to finally go after the street thugs and thieves. While it is pathetic to see a world class power held hostage to small groups of thugs, in a way it shows the total descent of US culture in to madness.

Did you see this: ?

Across SehShwa, preparations are being made for the anticipated riots after the Elections [ hah. hah. ].
Boarding up stores, National Guards.
Just imagine if this was Russia, or any other non-Empire nation.
Pamela,
I’ve seen the vids for several days now and if this was Russia, OMON and Rusgvardya would be polishing their riot batons and adjusting their shields and body armor. Since it’s US degenerating in to a third world country, SehSha really does not have much further to fall in the world’s eyes. Pity, really, what could have been, what should have been and what will never be. What a waste.

Never The Last One, ebook edition. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZGCY8KK A deep look in to Russia, her culture and her Armed Forces, in essence a look at the emergence of Russian Federation.
I’m sharing this with you, from my astrologer-numerologist – *only because of the tumultuous US Selection this week
Keep an eye out for a ‘Black Swan Event’ this week – rare occurrences that come by surprise and which have a profound influence that reverberates for years (it may not be a new full-blown BSE but an echo of a past one – either happy or difficult)
Expect the unexpected as Uranus aligns with a Full Moon in Taurus. It’s exact at 8° of Taurus today, Sunday the 1st, but with Mercury’s retrograde, we’ve been feeling this strange oomph for a while (along with Halloween’s Full Moon’s strong influence for a few more days yet)
Though the black swan metaphor has mostly been used for world events (eg USSR’s collapse, rise of the internet, 9/11, etc), it can equally be seen in the context of our own life’s turning points
This time, we may not see anything obvious at first but look closely for echoes of past landmark events
On the world scene, as they reverberate for many years recent BSE’s include:
– Trump’s 2016 election
– this year’s Covid ‘pandemic’
– this week’s US Selection is an obvious echo of the Trump swan
Note that this metaphor first used by C2nd Roman poet Juvenal, for a rare occurrence with long-lasting effects, was based on the belief that all swans are white and was used extensively in C16th London as a statement of *impossibility
These days, the meaning has changed to “an event thats extremely rare and virtually beyond prediction – with an element of surprise” and even further expanded to include explanations fabricated after the event to explain why it was supposedly expected all along, IOW, “turning a black swan white”. So this week, this could show up when we hear someone talk of a past event in a way that bears no semblance with what *actually took place, IOW the speaker is rewriting history to cast themselves in a better light
To be forewarned – is to be forearmed!
Regards
Okay my friend- I agree except I must make a very unpopular and controversial contribution. In real time, in the the actual living sky one can see the moon is 13 degrees 41 Aries. This does not change the aspects between planets so yes Uranus is ready to pounce. This is easily observable. Since a full moon is always opposite the sun we can understand that the sun is at the same degree in Libra. Tropical ( as opposed to sidereal) astrology as you and others cite it is not according to astronomical observation. It is approximately 25 degrees off based on the system of Ptolomy 2500 years ago.
Okay you astrology ‘experts’- go ahead and jump all over me and this post as you wish, but the stars are where they are and if you think they are somewhere else just because a book tells you so, go out and look. Its so hard to watch our vain illusions crashing one after the other- such is our age.
Love,
k
Hi K
I’ve always been told that the Moon is in the opposite sign in the zodiac to the Sun sign – so Taurus is 6 houses away from the Sun’s current position in the sign of Scorpio
I first went to this fellow in 2011 – and have found him to be uncannily accurate
I’m in no position to rebut your position, I’m not an astrology expert
I was merely hoping to pass on info that some people would find helpful
Regards

Mercury turns direct on the eve of the US election and the last time that happened 19 years ago the election was decided by the Supreme Court so I do think Auslander is spot on with his prediction. As one commentator said, ” on Election Da, we start the countdown of 79 days of H-ll.” Time will tell. There are nasty forces aligned with Antifa and the Demon-rat party.
Also, Mars turns direct on Nov 13 and will stomp on ( in either astrological system) forward making difficult transits or aspects to Jupiter, Pluto and Saturn until the end of January.( 90 degree or square aspects) So 79 days of heavy conflict seems about right.
Jupiter also conjuncts Pluto on Nov 12th. Big death, big structural inflated crash…or a war begins. Death and resurrection both.
These are geometric aspects in Sidereal as well as tropical astrology so the metaphors hold. One might want to check out the fixed stars behind these astronomical points though and that requires sidereal astrology. ( just subtract 23 degrees from the tropical.)
… movie time … Tang Dynasty, China …
about a man who has had enough of fame and yearns to live a simple life …
but it’s not that easy … in fact it’s extremely complicated with much emotion, pain and suffering.

To Amarynth- I know you are on break after the family debacle. Just letting you know I have been there so much- so I am sending you a post card from the heartbreak hotel- a place I frequent.

I receive it with great thanks – gonna get out of this Hotel California for sure :-)
Sucharit Bhakti interviewed on covid measures ( I don’t know if this is the same one Pamela referred to ) :
https://www.globalresearch.ca/video-the-corona-virus-and-the-health-impacts-of-the-lockdown-interview-with-dr-sucharit-bhakdi/5728149
For those who don’t have time to watch, some salient points :
– much lower death rate than the flu season of 2 years ago
– for those under 70 – even with an illness – the death rate is much less than 1%
– for those under 70 with no pre existing illness, its less than 0.01 %
– the method of diagnosis violates all rules of science – numbers are inflated
– people dying of heart attacks or lung disease, but with covid are counted as covid deaths
– people are being misled into fear with terrible consequences – lockdowns have done no good / only harm
– rules are dehumanizing
– even over 80s are safe if not already ill – too dangerous to vaccinate the elderly
– vaccination useless for the young
– no vaccination works against diseases of the respiratory system
– swine flu vaccination did no good – only harms – many lives ruined
– covid remains one of the rarest causes of death in Germany ( where Bhakdi is based )
– he estimates 100 000 dead needlessly because of the refusal to allow Hydroxychloroqhine.
– Swedish figures no worse than any where else without the harms of lockdown
Dr. Bhakdi is eminently qualified to express an opinion ( his credentials are listed ) – unlike Bill Gates who dictates to the whole World and is listened to – while Bhakdi is ignored.
Bill Gates may be dictating but Putin and Xi are following.
I’m not sure what’s going on there – I believe Putin has said there will be no more lockdowns and their vaccination is based / built on previous vaccinations – so safer than others ?
Bhakdi does say that the virus is not harmless – just that the ‘ cure ‘ is worse than the disease.
I don’t know – Putin is one man – not the saviour.
Neither Vladimir Putin nor Xi Jipeng are following Bill Gates or anything West of their own lands sandinED. You just have to follow their patterns of behaviour in all things.
Anyone who truly thinks either leader would hand their beloved land over to the Predator Piranhas or the world, has got rocks in their head.
Pamela,
I don’t believe China or Russia will ever subordinate themselves to anyone – their sovereignty is paramount. I just meant that I don’t know what the strategy is. People sometimes expect Putin to sort everything out for them – immediately too – like he’s their daddy, and if it doesn’t happen right away, he must be working for Soros / Gates / the Israelis or whoever. He’s not our daddy.
I expect both Putin and Xi to do what they decide is best for their own nations – that’s their job. Russia, China and Iran may not love each other ( who ever said they did ? ) but they will pragmatically act together to oppose the global bully and maintain their sovereignty / establish a multipolar world. Surely that is devoutly to be wished for all our sakes, after decades of the exceptional nation running amok.
Not to worry, Anon!
It’s all about the US Presidential election.
Neither Xi nor Putin want the Deep State Cadaver Biden……but they can’t say so….yet.
So, for a few more days, they must lull the Globalist Psychopaths into The Deepest Waters of Their Profoundest Arrogance……..where they….and the Coming And Immediately Current Red Wave can pummel and DROWN the Powers That Used To Be……………… in their Own Egoic Maelstrom of Genocidal Madness….by playing along…and pretending.
In judo, it’s all about leverage….and using the opponent’s own weight (Stupid 19 Fear) against him.
‘Cause the American Deplorables ain’t buyin’ any more BS Lockdowns from Biden’s “buddies”.
No matter W.H.O. touts the end of their desired free lives…from home…..OR abroad.
They prefer Trump’s response to “having the virus”:
“I haven’t felt better in 20 years!”
@Bro 93
Well spoken ! So be it !
With the sad news of Sean Connery’s death I remember my favourite Bond theme, which has been largely forgotten. Louis Armstrong We Have All the Time in the World :
https://youtu.be/RktwEMS0u28
Connery was surely the most exciting and convincing Bond. But he made other great films. The Hill and The Man Who Would Be King – among others – he was a great actor.
I’m sad to hear he’s gone, but he was very ill ( I saw a picture of him recently and he looked very like my father just before he died ). It is not good to linger in poor health. Nevertheless I do have a tear in my eye.
RIP Sean.
I must frankly admit that I never knew much about Sean Connery, let alone the films he did (I have never seen a James Bond film), but to learn of his recent death… ouch.
What makes it worse is that the last film he did before his retirement from acting, and the only film he was in that I’m familiar with, was a CGI animated film titled Sir Billi, a.k.a. Guardian of the Highlands. Said to be Scotland’s first CGI animated film, the film has Connery play the eponymous protagonist, an elderly skateboarding veterinarian whose mission is to fight villainous policemen to save a beaver.
While I thought some parts of the film were clever, the film itself unfortunately suffers from bad animation, atrocious character designs, and an uninteresting plot. For a supposed kids’ film, it also has unnecessary violence and sexual innuendos. Not a good note to end one’s acting career on.
You can see a review of this film here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtFXBi7uxIw
I’m pretty sure Sir Sean Connery deserved better. He will certainly be remembered for the James Bond films, and not for this one.
The hill and the offence….challenging but necessary films. Real acting…credit to fellow actors too……not the stereotype fake agenda “spy” stuff….
Funny I just recently watched the “Name of the Rose”. He was brilliant. RIP Sean Connery.
Btw Even as a Franciscan monk he still oozes sex appeal hahaha!
Thanx for that link Sandra – and yes he was by far the best Bond – and also a great Dad to Harrison Ford’s Indiana Jones – delighting a whole new generation of fans!
… and another Edinburgher (an pro-Scottish Independence – North Sea oil is Scottish oil!) that I was delighted to find out in the news coverage!
Regards
‘great dad’, that’s how acting goes, in real life, he was a lousy husband, does one outweight the other……., you’d have to ask his kids, from the beaten mother (his admission). Having seen my mother take a few over the years, it’s a heavy weight…………..funny enough, after the big migration my Da changed over time, my sis and I are 12 years apart, I often joke with her that we had two dads, I got the Irish one and she got the Canadian one. I liked the Candian one better, although the Irish one had his moments…………dads, how are they measured, and by whom? What ‘stick’ is used?
Cheers, M
Speaking of Scottish Independence, one detail I did not notice in Sir Billi back when I first saw it was a scene where a brightly neat and tidy Scottish flag – in the form of a fridge door – sits next to a plumb-worn-out Union Jack. I did not notice any political subtext with this at first, but I could definitely remember reading how the directors were outraged when the Scottish National Party chose to promote Disney-Pixar’s Brave (USian-made) instead of Sir Billi.
Now you’re cookin’ with gas, TB!
And I’m very interested….in Old Recipes………..From the Past.
Like the 5th of November, 1605.
I’m tryin’ to fire up the grill, myself!
Double, double, toil and trouble—Fire burn and caldron bubble!
Will it be Swan Soup??? Will the Witches of The Evil Empire Fall In ….and Consume Themselves?
(I call the resulting—planned— broth…………. “Consommé 2020″………..)
Or will they need a little “push”……….of Rising Mass Consciousness…….
To call it a wrap …..and finally cut out their black “magic” and evil crap…..???
As An Appendage to Auslander’s Alert (5A)…………this one is About (5N)
And the Very, Very Interesting Tore Forecast…from YEARS AGO (proof below) that two days after Tuesday’s Election……(5N)……
..The White House……will “Go Dark”…….as in “Light’s Out”.
…for at least 24 hours…if not longer. If so, I will have to pay closer attention to that edgy Greek American New Yorker. If not….well that’s what I would suspect. I’m not easily sold on anyone’s prescience.
But any good track record deserves a little further study, I will give her that much…………..
This may ramble into the brambles, but I’ll get there (the “Remember, Remember” spell casting….) soon enough…if you can bear the suspense and spookiness.
“Black is Beautiful”….and White Is NOT Alright these Days of Inversion of All Things…….but how does all that Color Symbolism work…..not only with Swans…….but also with Our Sicker Versus Saner Sisters???
“Remember, Remember, the 5th of November”
…….is the recurring theme and incantation from the very start of Tore Says’ inaugural show. And she chose this last Halloween 2020 to play her very first public “appearance” (as a voice) on……you guessed’er, Chester…….. November 5, 2018.
Now, I’m not calling Tore …”a witch”….certainly not yet. All I am saying is that she plays a LOT with the dimension of TIME…and I’m not deciding, believing…or anything of the sort.
I’m just observing.
Including how she treats the “O”…graphically in her Show Title, amarynth…….lol. Have some FUN! Loosen up a little…..it IS possible………. this turns out alright!
Because one thing I know about that subject 17 is that …………I don’t know. And neither do you.
Nor does CAF or Dark Journalist.
What they DO know is that they have their little cottage industry gigs….their subscribers’ list that they need to maintain to “keep the lights on”……….and they don’t want…they don’t NEED their narratives, that a lot of time and effort have gone into building…to be upset by….well….ANYthing that might sweep over those subscribers and grab too much of their subscribers attention …and take it anywhere else……to ANY other narrative…but their own!
Basic. Understandable!
” It is what it is.”
But it is not “knowledge”. It is opinion. It is perception, colored by …..all sorts of things which vary a great deal, from one perceiver to the next.
In point of fact, most of what comes across our senses and our minds isn’t knowledge. We see familiar objects or other people, for example, where a theoretical physicist sees “Organized Structures of Vibrational Energy”………..or a theologian or mystic sees in such a “many”…..”The One”….Pure Consciousness……”uniting The ALL”.
While most of us, most of the time, are like, “So what??? I need to buy some groceries right now. Maybe I’ll meditate on that later, OK??? See ya!”
All I am saying is that more often than not, it is wiser to withhold judgment…….and observe longer. A LOT longer! SO…that’s what I have been doing with Tore…….for the last few months……not for purpose of violating any “rules” but to see if she lied when she answered Frank’s query, when he asked her what makes her so confident:
“Well, Frank……I know things……And I drink.”
A sense of humor is a must!
But her first “hop back in time” yesterday was not a clip of her very first public appearance. That comes later.
So on Halloween 2020…Tore leads off with…”We’re gonna start today’s little “time hop” by heading back into my little Time Capsule. I’m going to take you to….2019, and we’re only gonna play about 15 minutes….
https://youtu.be/NqAZlCh4j4w?t=282
Discussion of Treason
Movie Sound Clip: A man: “Do you know what day it is, dear?”
A woman, “Ummm….November 4th.”
The man: “Not anymore.” Church bells toll midnight.
The man: “Remember, remember the fifth of November, The Gunpowder Treason Plot
I know of no reason that the Gunpowder Treason…should ever…. be forgot.”
“It’s important to know that a lot of things we didn’t see….happened.” Tore Says.
And Tore plays coverage of George Webb’s Nov 2019 reportage from US District Court in Maryland. and coverage of the Uranium Trial update from November 5, 2019….”a very short clip”…”a star witness comes in…and mentions something that is key to November 5th and 6th of 2018….and why they are important now. Because sometimes when we look to the past….it clearly outlines what is happening today….and what is to come in the future.” END of Clip
Tore 2020 returns and says….
“So that was November 6, 2019…I call it …My Anniversary Show. Even though that’s off…by a date (day?). Then we’ll go to 2018. That’ll be fun!”
November 5, 2018: https://youtu.be/NqAZlCh4j4w?t=702 Her first Show….”which I hope has a 10 year run”.
“And I will give you the tools….to parse out what is information and what is disinformation……..”
OK.. Tore Tool Chest Test….let’s take you into Time Trials:
“What we have during these mid-term elections is millions of people…..trying to shatter our borders….and tomorrow, while we’d love to have the House and the Senate…..my prediction is that the only thing we will have…is the Senate. And that’s the only thing that counts.
And I’ll tell you why: “Impeach!!!”…that’s what they’ll scream: “Impeach!!”
And they will impeach.
But just like they they say, “General Flynn will be sentenced.”, I’m telling you that he will NEVER be sentenced!
Okay?? He will never be sentenced.”, Tore Says.
So far so good, girl. Now it’s 2020 SHOW TIME.
Enough Cliff Notes. You’re on your own now, class. Enough tutorials.
A few of you should be ready…….”Dinner’s served!”
Was meant as a complimentary recipe………… to Tysons’s comment above:

…which inspired it.
Bro,
I’m one of the “few”. I do believe , no, understand “hive mind”. It’s real. (Mass consciousness) I’ve been at this “game” since my feet touched ground in Oct 66′ at Tan Son Nhut north of Saigon. On this site or another, maybe “Black Sheep” asked me , “Why you kill Viet Nam people?”. I’m not sure I answered then so I will now. I was ignorant. I was programmed to be so. Ignorance is doing evil because you didn’t know better. Stupidity is knowing better and doing it anyway. Of course the problem we all face at this point in “time” is that info (which corrects ignorance”) is a controlled commodity. I monitor this site and MANY others plus the most important info for me there is; My life’s experiences. I read, watch, listen to Tore, Webb, Shlanger, Frank, Saker, you, Amararynth, “Col”, down and dirty fellow vets, FOX, CNN, etc tc etc. Frank N Beanz with Patrick Byrne was VERY enlightening especially in the last minutes when he spoke of the different groups, mafias, cabals, in Russia, China, Japan, USA, etc. But, I knew that. I’ve had 1st person contact with too many historical figures not to. I do keep many “grains of salt” close at hand. I was many things after Nam. Remember, I was a COMBAT grunt. I can give you all details but you may not want to eat for a couple of days. After I was “released from custody” I shrunk into this little hard mass that was looking for the meaning of life. I was a “Bircher”, a socialist, an alcoholic with a Rugby problem, a Purdue Management Grad, (Krannert), a building contractor, loyal husband, (was a major “bird dog”), father of a minor league baseball pitcher and major aerospace engineer/pilot, to retired private building contractor. My journey is not even close to being over. Nor should it be.
Bro, you and others understand that we are at a MAJOR inflection point in human history. ArchBishop Vigano points it out in no uncertain terms. I’ve been to the “Guidestones”. I understand what he is saying.
hound
Nice testament to getting real…in the school of..”hard knocks”, Hound.
My Freshman year 1968 in college……about this time of year…….. I was playing poker during the Vietnam draft lottery being played on the radio in a dorm conference room on the second floor..
When I realized what it was, I started to pay more attention to the radio than to the cards and the betting of quarters.
We passed the first hundred birthdays..
Then the second, feeling ever more confident….and lucky…..
Coasting home past the first 300 birthdays announced on the radio, I spoke up and cracked a joke about “not being called to serve my country (sic) yet”.
Someone asked what my birthday was, and I smugly told everyone.
“Oh my god!”, gasped one of the players: “You were # 4.”
To be continued. LOL
I still haven’t got around to the Tore say’s links, but her comment to Quite Frankly : “Well, Frank……I know things……And I drink” I remember from their conversation of some time ago, and not sure if she is being funny, plus her statement does not strike me as being arrogant, but honest.
Her work, career, connections and intelligence could be enough to claim ‘knowing’ of some event or activity or other, so why would she bother to state that ? Whatever its nature, she carries a big responsibility and is a gem.
Only fools rush in where angels fear to tread, so caution when entering the zone is a good idea…

Today’s Russian gov.policy highlight in aid of the “Great Reset” https://xn--80aesfpebagmfblc0a.xn--p1ai/news/20201101-1410.html
Dead
The number of deaths due to the coronavirus is increasing rapidly: this week the headquarters reported 2,185 deaths against 1,863 in the previous seven days. Five times the number of deaths per day exceeded 300, two times – 200.
5 reasons why the current war between Armenians in NK and Azerbaijan is different to the war between Serbs in Krajina and Croatia:
1. Russia was weak in 1995. Russia today is strong(er).
2. Pashinyan came to power in a colour revolution. Milosevic for all his faults (and he had many) was not a product of colour revolution.
3. NK is an enclave but was surrounded by a buffer zone abutting Armenia proper. No such buffer zone existed for Krajina.
4. In 1995 Serbia was under sanctions which included an oil embargo. No such sanctions exist on Armenia today.
Finally and most importantly,:
5. Armenians reject any autonomy within Azerbaijan. In 1995, the Serbs did accept autonomy within Croatia.
On August 2nd 1995 the Serbs of Krajina signed the peace plan know as Z4 accepting Croat rule.
August 3rd 1995, the US ambassador Galbraith went on Croat TV to confirm that the Serbian side had made considerable concessions and that they would peacefully reintegrate into Croatia.
On August 3th 1995, the Glasgow Herald published the news that peace had been achieved and now there was no reason to go to war. (See link below)
On August 4rd 1995, Croatia attacked the Serbs of Krajina in “Operation Storm” and committed the single largest war crime of ethnic cleansing in the ex-Yugoslav wars.
For those interested in more details:
http://slobodan-milosevic.org/news/smorg-anl082804.htm
The above are source documents and transcripts from the Hague tribunal.
In a bizarre deflection of responsibility, Milosevic and the Serbs were blamed for Operation Storm.
See also: https://rs-lat.sputniknews.com/analize/201508043705221/
Please feel free to add any of your own reasons, differences, similarities etc.
all Croatian operations against Serbs were made with full support of NATO.
NATO is nothing than criminal organization.
@Serbian girl
The Yugoslavian war was the blood sabbath for the ‘new’ Germany, itself a product of a hostile takeover in total disregard for the given constitution which very, very clearly stated that a united Germany will have to hold a people’s vote over a new constitution, which of course never happend, the same as the people never had a say in any important matter, for instance regarding the EU.
Again the Russians gave an offering which immediatly was turned into something very dirty by the powers that were, soon to be followed by the blood sabbath in Yugoslavia.
To this very day this ‘new’ Germany is an abomination – a totally poisonous abortion actually – which MUST be de-capitated to be rebuilt by and for the people.

Amarynth,
hope you’re enjoying a rest. and sorting out family dramas. This short film may warm your heart a bit – a bird of Paradise dancing and displaying – I think it’s delightful beyond words :
https://youtu.be/nPhVOZiPokA
I remembered it after posting Snowy White’s Bird of Paradise in the last café. Hope you enjoy it. :-) The song’s nice too.
Well well. People must never tell me God does not have a sense of humor! Those birds are gorgeous and also just damn fools in their prancing! Thank-you.

Declassified Mueller Docs Reveal DoJ Couldn’t Prove WikiLeaks Got DNC Emails From Russia
““The Office determined, however, that it did not have admissible evidence that was probably sufficient to obtain and sustain a Section 1030 conspiracy conviction of WikiLeaks, Assange, or Stone,” Mueller’s team wrote. The report goes on to note that they regarded WikiLeaks as equivalent to a “fence,” or someone who finds buyers for stolen goods, exploring the various legal ramifications of that framing, but again concluded they had no basis for bringing charges forward.”
Amarynth,
no I hadn’t seen it. It tells us what we already know – lets see if this declassification of docs makes any difference – or is studiously ignored.. Craig Murray made the point at the time that if they had any knowledge of Russian hacks and the guilty parties, they would obviously have prosecuted. He had written an article, briefly available in the Guardian, to this effect. ( The article was taken down within 3 hours ). Both he and Assange had made clear from the start that the Russians had nothing to do with it.

This is yet another reason the extradition case should be thrown out. I fear the extent of media control makes this unlikely. Also, Sir Keir was instrumental in persuading Sweden not to drop the case against Assange when they wanted to. There is no chance the Labour party under him ( all the more disgracefully as he is a QC ), will put any pressure on Baraitser to do the right thing. I hope I’m wrong.
Thanks A :-)

Song Break!
Which female candidate on the National Ticket (2016 or 2020) does this song fit the best, Hillary or Kamala?
All that’s needed is some black hair dye, red lipstick….and a broom. Both have already had the cackle down…..for years!
“Witchy Woman”
Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her fingertips
Echoed voices in the night
She’s a restless spirit on an endless flight
Woo hoo witchy woman,
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon
Woo hoo witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye
Well, I know you want a lover,
Let me tell you, brother,
She’s been sleeping in the Devil’s bed.
And there’s some rumors going round
Someone’s underground
She can rock you in the nighttime
‘Til your skin turns red
Woo hoo witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye

Sorry to quote the BBC tabloid but Robert Fisk has died age 74.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-54774539
He refused to leave Baghdad and Hotel Palestine ( which was attacked by US forces) during Baby Bush’s shock and awe. I remember reading his reports avidly. Moral courage. Truth teller.
I’m sure someone on this site knows some basis on which he could be “cancelled” if we even indulged in such practice.
It is a hard world in which to hoe a straight furrow.. but Psalm 27…” lead me in the path of integrity -literally a straight path” is spoken in the context of a prayer for guidance…” because of my enemies”. This reminds me of the Trump health official who gave an interview to RT and then apologized for doing so. Moral courage? zero. Integrity? none. And he will continue to be savaged even after the craven “apology”.
This is a down and dirty, no holds barred spiritual battle first and foremost with the other aspects following. The technocratic beast shows no mercy.
Fisk was among the first to go to go to Douma and cast doubt on the chemical attack narrative.
https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/syria-chemical-attack-gas-douma-robert-fisk-ghouta-damascus-a8307726.html
I note in this report he refers to both the WHO and OPCW supporting the gas attack story.

My call is Trump is going to lose…judging by this comment today Trump himself is of the very same opinion!
Trump….“We’re going to go in the night of, as soon as that election is over… we’re going in with our lawyers.”
This prediction by Trump himself was aired gleefully by presstitute Ingraham on Fox news today. Just me, but here was I thinking she was trying every trick in the book to get the baffoon elected again, and yet is so dumb she actually highlights his very own personal expectation of defeat!.

Trump says lots of things! It doesn’t mean he believes or understands what he is saying, or that he will remember what he said tomorrow, and none of his followers care if he lies or not.
No matter the pain, treachery, lies and other devastations left in their wake, nearly everyone in the world adores their narcissists, for they seem to fill the holes in their souls.
‘Seem’ being the operative word.

T13,
Thanks for the great AK47 article. I have the milled receiver/fold forward stock version. The article is spot on. In Nam I carried the M-16 A1 without forward assist. We trained with M-14’s so I had only one or two days with the 16 when I went into combat. It was a glorified club and cost us lives. Very finicky in the tropical conditions. In the early 90’s I got into a rifle program in a large 300+ member gun club and by 97′(97-2010) I was the chair of the High-power Rifle Program and competing with the Ar-15, M1A (M14), and M1 Garand. The latter two functioned without much fuss and the 15 also if you know what you are doing. You can “float” the barrels on the 15 which is a huge accuracy plus over the “Bedded stock” of the 14’s and M1’s. I competed and won with all 3 rifles but mostly with 15’s that I built and loaded for. In 97′ I captained a 4 man Marksman Service Rifle team that won our class at the Camp Perry NRA National Championships. My last win was the 09′ ISRPA Master Class Service Rifle Champion at Camp Atterbury Indiana 200yd offhand, 300yd prone rapid fire, and 600yd prone slow fire. I load my own bullet weights and powders for each stage and built my own AR15. I’ve shot little since then as age and injuries (BAD cycle crash) made it tougher. I do try to pass on my knowledge when I can. There is an excellent generation of girls and boys with even better rifles shooting amazing scores. Of course when I was competing in Service Rifle it was all Iron Sights. Then because the militaries started issuing rifles with “scopes” NRA Service Rifle Class now allows “scopes”. They have specific specs but the scores have gone thru the roof. I’m just an old grunt who used to do some pretty amazing shit using iron sights and probably if needed do so again.
Thanks for spurring me down memory lane.
hound
They may be good shots Hound, but if the scope gets damaged what could they hit. Just finished my PAL yesterday, and had an interesting convo with the instructor, and we agreed, Iron Sights rule. I like the ability to adjust for distance on the fly……….and no, I’m not in your class but still fancy my chances to hit a target at 300 yds using my old open sight Lee Enfield.
Cheerrs, M
All shooters should be trained on open sight first, till it’s mastered, then switch to scope, imho.
STL,
Proper tool for the job at hand. In marksmanship contests the sanctioning orgs set the rules/job and scopes are now “Service Rifle Legal” in NRA matches. The CMP (Civilian Marksmanship Program which sprang from Teddy Roosevelt’s DCM (Department of Civilian Marksmanship) still has some iron sight matches I believe. The optics are clear as a bell and electronic targets (I helped install and test fire the ones at my local range) are now the rage as you don’t have to pull pit duty on paper targets. You only have to go to the pits to change the target for distance and the value and shot placement shows up on your iPad on the firing point. Nightvision scopes have come a LONG way since the crude “Starlight Scopes” that I had limited access to in Nam. “Grainy” but I’m not sure better than nothing as decent eyes adjusted to the conditions were at times better.
Yeah, at heart I’m still an iron sight guy as I understand what it takes. In rifle, the target is background and the front post is your focal length. In matches I never let my eyes adjust for distance and only looked at my immediate area, literally 20″, the distance from my right eye to the front post. That was the focal point I wanted. In NRA, CMP, matches the black of the target, no matter the distance, is .072 in your vision. 100 yds- 6″, 200 yds-12″, 300yds-18″, 600 yds 36″. X, 10, 9, 8, 7, rings accordingly. So, the BEST front post is .072 as it is the width of the black of the target center. The rear aperture is usually .035-.045. Military .072. If the post is less than .072 you get “lost in the black” and give up points. “Center” hold is best as there is a 1-2 “minute” (1″/100 yds) aura if you 6 o’clock hold and lost points. I’m a Master Instructor, can you tell? LOL
Sorry I got carried away. I started later than most in the 90’s (I’m pushing 74) but I was considered in the top Prone shooters in Indiana at some point as I could get into a rhythm and bust great scores. My Nam damaged right forearm held me back in offhand (elbow tight position) so I missed High Master stats. by a whisker.
I’ve ALWAYS been open about my combat experience and right up front will tell you that “my” war was a travesty for the Vietnamese people. Like some, I did not allow myself to be involved so that i could “legally” kill another human being. My “ignorance/patriotism” put me into that position. I cannot change what happened. I’ve had other human beings in my “iron sights”. I was in theirs. I drew blood. so did they. Humans can do better. I think we will.

I found myself persecuting innocent folk just because somebody told me to.paid me, fed me,looked after me.(Malaya)-off the books now,drowning in guilt.Peace Hound.

In a reply to Pamela elsewhere in this Café, I noted the ‘disappearance’ of an internet news item I read yesterday: that of Australia’s contract with Swedish made injections being made mandatory: no exemptions on any grounds except medical.
Last night on the advocate me web site, which is the class action site based in Melbourne, I read amongst other items, about police whistleblowers, who Serene also represents. I signed their support page.

See what they are discussing at Valdai today. Just exactly what we’ve been saying that the move away from the West is proceeding apace. (No Global One World Government at least for the foreseeable future). Also note the word ‘globalization’ being used – and clearly explained that alternative concepts are emerging. So, they are literally redefining what these terms mean and how they are going to use them. With time, the worldview will change I’m convinced. The ‘building of a different world’ in these circles is truly no more a vague theory somewhere in the mists only.
(Its quite telling that this discussion is scheduled on the same day as the US election).
The West is gradually ceasing to play a leading role in determining the development of the world economy.
Alternative concepts of globalisation and multilateralism are emerging.
China, as the leader of the Global South, has presented a number of mega-projects over the past few years to build a new architecture for the world economy, including the Belt and Road Initiative and BRICS+.
In turn, Russia put forward the concept of the Greater Eurasian Partnership. These projects can contribute to integration processes, to the development of transport links, and to economic cooperation between the countries of Eurasia.
The multilateral integration projects of Russia and China can be presented as a kind of “new Eurasian multilateralism”, which is becoming an ever more weighty alternative to Western models of world economic development. In this regard, the key question is how successful the confluence of the integration projects of China and Russia will be in the Eurasian space and in the world economy as a whole? Can the Greater Eurasian Partnership become the core of integration processes in Eurasia? How much more competitive could such a joint integration project between Russia and China become in comparison with the integration projects of Western countries? These and many other questions will be answered by leading experts specialising in the affairs of the Eurasia region and world economic development.
https://valdaiclub.com/events/announcements/valdai-club-to-discuss-new-eurasian-multilateralism/
I’ll watch for a transcript.
About Valdai – yes, it is a think tank but different from the various think tanks that do their work in a non-transparent manner. Everything is open, discussions are held publicly, you can watch the stuff, read it and learn from it. Its clear that people are hungry for transparent, honest and open information because this one is growing like crazy and concepts from here go back to the respective countries and get implemented if they hold water.
Now we all know that there is an alternative view to the scary Global One World Government. Good? Bad? Of course we do not know, but this may be some of the change that we’ve been working towards where we don’t need to jump ship, but for the moment simply watch and see.
Which Way, USA……………and The World??
Is it possible for ALL (even subjects of The Commonwealth……and even Americans) to “Do well (for themselves) while also doing good (towards others) ?
Of course it is!
Which is why the most frightening nightmare the globalist oligarchs have is that Trump, Xi and Putin will work out a framework of agreements among sovereign nation states in that spirit, while disposing of their dystopian fear-based globalist mind control…..pitting “each against all” in a Hobbesian nightmare “Green New Deal” ….for the sole benefit of the oligarchy….squeezing the life and freedom out of everyone that does not aid and abet their control..and Central Bankers’ Mega-Bubble..with plans for also eliminating the “useful idiots” that can’t see how it all works…….yet,……. for lack of vision “down the road”.
As usual, Harley lays it out, avoiding the East vs West and North vs South “divide and conquer” traps so many are prone to falling into………..when they come to a strategic “fork in the road” like the present one:
https://youtu.be/yd5cyV_oQZ0
“As Americans vote today, they will be choosing between two vastly different directions for the future. Will the imperial global, neo-liberal War Hawk faction take back the White House, so they can defend their bankrupt system? Or will President Trump be given the opportunity to drain the “Swamp”, so he can end the “endless wars”, and join with Russia, China and other sovereign nations to establish a New Bretton Woods, which would shut down the bankrupt system of the central banks, which denies credit to the physical economy, while providing huge volumes of funny money to speculators? And if he wins, will the shock troops of Antifa and other violent hoodlums be deployed, in yet another attempt to accomplish a regime change in the U.S.?”
Yes, they will.
But it’s likely their planned Maidan for the USA ………will fail. Which should encourage….rather than depress.
Unless one is under Empire Mind Control….Prisoner of War status …….blissfully unaware of how they were captured in that unfortunate state of Service to the Empire. .
Of course it is not!

On Course for a Coup – Coronavirus hysteria and the U.S. elections
I hope my fears about the jettisoning of the electoral process prove to be premature. But the American public has never had a more tenuous grasp on the traditional institutions of democracy than it does now. With four-fifths of our governors already acting like dictators, with both major parties working hand in hand to delegitimize the election of a president, and with a mass media that stubbornly refuses to report these facts, we won’t preserve democracy by doing nothing.
The constitutional system may not collapse in a week’s time. But if we don’t want to see it collapse sooner or later – and probably sooner – we had better start taking politics into our own hands.

Well, FWIW, I voted for trump. My thoughts run to what the alternative would be:
biden in the basement, harris to pres, maybe pulls in clinton, and one can know how that evil psychopath would operate.
I read yesterday that the clintons and their big money sponsors have been supporting harris since 2017 as the go to dimocrat so that speaks volumes.
If one has the time, this 5 minute tucker carlson clip pretty much sums up my read on the situation: a vote for trump, regardless how one feels about him, is a vote against the rot and corruption embeded in dc:

US President’s probably now a thing of antiquity so it will have been worth nothing.
Corruption? pass me the Regeneron and a dose of Moderna’s RNA pumped in by one of the Global Mafia’s chief snake oil salesmen.
Congratulations.
There are many people, including myself (who has been at this political consciousness game for 40 years…..my first 30 years of living having been spent concluding it was all deeply hidden from me and others….and likely would never be revealed……so I sympathize with disorientation……..)…………… that are not concerned with pre or after-glow election victory gloating ……but rather with sober concern for reality melt downs……….. like this concerned caller into Quite Frankly was last night:
https://youtu.be/wTmuDiSz64Q?t=4753
Says that caller: ” I hope people can have some kind of sympathy……keep in mind that there are people whose brains might explode…..and they are gonna have a mighty big red pill to swallow….and they might need some help.”
Frank is at his absolute best Live and Unscripted, off the cuff.
I pull this synopsis out, of how he improvises around that thought, beautifully, IMHO:
“People have asked me, “Frank, what is your idea for red pilling those that have been stuck in one train of thought for years?’
And I answer: “Nothing. Man in the mirror dude! You gotta take care of yourself. And if there are any children in your life, take care of your children. Adults?? Let them come to whatever conclusions they’re going to come to.’
And if this election shakes out the way it appears it will, where once again, the media is attempting to gas light the hell out of people…and Trump’s gonna win big in some way, and then it’s just about mitigating the losses, by accusing one person or another or one institution or another of being illegitimate, or there being chicanery at the polls or ……nobody…..we are at the stage in our lives now, in our history where nobody is going to accept results.
That’s The END!
We are at the end here. So the biggest Red Pill here that anybody could ever take is saying, ‘Oh, WOW! Do I really want to load up and open fire on Americans? Because there comes a time when nobody is going to allow a group of people who do not acknowledge basic biology…..to dictate to them how they are going to live their lives and how they’re going to spend their money and earn their money.
It’s not gonna happen.
It’s not gonna happen! Eventually there’s going to be a FIGHT……….. if there’s not going to be any kind of agreement on what reality is.
And to see people who are saying, “No matter what, we’re not going to concede. No matter what, it’s either we win or it was rigged.”
That’s the end!
So, the biggest Red PIll right there is: “Oh! This cannot go on! So do I really want to solve the problem by waging physical war on my supposed countrymen….killing people…..do I really want people to DIE….in order for my Party to have supremacy?
OR am I gonna have some kind of a moment when I realize what American civics is all about???
I’ll keep sayin’ it: Why the hell does anyone out there in California (We’re wondering the same about y’all out there in New York, Frank!…..lol) who believes in ‘progressive ideology’ and Agenda 2030 nonsense ….why the hell does it matter to them—-aside from the fact that they want everyone else’s money, of course…..that there’s a Republican president ever again?
What does it matter??
You have everything you want to do! You have a governor who’s about to give people how many other guidelines for having Christmas dinner? When you have a government that can tell you who you can invite to Christmas dinner….and how far away from each other they have to sit at the table…
Leave everyone else alone! You’ve obviously created the Utopia that you wanted. Leave everyone else alone.
People don’t understand what they are asking for. They don’t understand what they are voting for. They just don’t understand.
They don’t understand that this is a Death Trip. It’s a death trip.
So other than those that are gonna bite down on a Red Pill…the way that Brandon Straka did …….
(here’s the “progressively” incredibly “phobic” LOL link gestalt, guys….
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/08/black-lives-matter-mob-attacks-walkaway-founder-brandon-straka-rnc-hurl-cup-rush-call-friend-fggots/ )
….by him saying: “Oh, wait a second! The media was completely misreporting this! If they lied to me about that, what else are they lying to me about???
Aside from that, there are people that are going to realize that …., “Do I really want to take this to the conclusion that I see that it is going to???
And How The HELL Did I Get Here???”
“When I look in the mirror, how the hell am I …………endorsing murder???”
“…..’Cause that’s where it’s going.”,
Concludes Frank: “The back of this whole thing needs to be broken.”
By an Anti-Globalist Tsunami….I presume he means………..a vast….undeniable…..OUT-NUMBERING….by a No Longer “Silent” …….but reassuringly calm…..Majority.
“503 (my Red Pilled Sister’s area code in rural Oregon) you’re on the air, who’s this?”
Frank’s Election Day and Night coverage:
“We’re going to be live until polls close on the West Coast (12 Midnight, EST), and the evening is going to be a long stream of calls and guests, and news, information, jokes, and inspiration. What will happen? What comes next? THERE’S NO MORE WAITING LEFT!”

People will gather, even if Big Brother forbids them to.
Frank just needs to understand “Federalism” better and what Andrew Jackson did in 1828. The Constitution (“loophole wording”) allows the State Legislatures to let the people vote for the “Electors”. Each State is Sovereign in a Republic of republics. Until 1828 the “electors” were chosen by the State Legislatures but the “loophole” wording in the article allowed the legislatures to let the people vote for the “Electors”. A “National” vote total wound destroy the Federal Republic and install a “National Democracy” . The State boundaries would vanish and Federalism collapse into a national democracy where the coasts dominate. Marx; “The straightest path to socialism is democracy (aligned with a Central Bank to buy votes with debt based “money”). Those who want a national popular vote to determine who should lead this “democracy” are playing into the hands of people who want to have absolute control of your lives. They will also have control of who lives.

Now, this is funny. The Biden camp is planning to do a Guaido: https://www.axios.com/biden-transition-plan-election-day-65caa1f6-886e-42cd-b205-5ee8f89941f2.html?utm_campaign=organic&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_source=twitter
“If news organizations declare Joe Biden the mathematical president-elect, he plans to address the nation as its new leader, even if President Trump continues to fight in court, advisers tell Axios.”
Especially this one is remarkable:
“We’re not really concerned about what Donald Trump says. … We’re going to use our data, our understanding of where this is headed, and make sure that the vice president is addressing the American people.”
Wait. Afaik at least to somewhere in January 2021, the VP of the USA is Mike Pence. What can this mean?
-Joe is unaware that it is already 2020 (considering his mind this is plausible)
-They switch places, and Kamala Harris will be president (and Joe ‘disappears’ for vague health reasons)
-Kamala Harris does all the speeches
-They are all out of their minds…
And then complaining that Lukachenko is a cheat?
(once he was firmly adressed by Macron to step to down from power in favour of the demonstrants. Lukachenko replied with the question when Macron planned to do that towards the Yellow vest movement ;-))
It would be an interesting outcome, when the Supreme Court would declare the whole election invalid (I’m sure all ‘found’ -but hadn’t been lost- extra ballot boxes are firmly in favor of the Dems, and there will be clearly more votes than voters in some places).
And I thought Brexit in the parliament was a clown show.
Cheers, Rob
As predicted:
“With votes still being cast all over the nation, the legal battle promised by Donald Trump has already begun, as Republican lawyers on Election Day challenged the counting of absentee ballots in a key Democratic-leaning district. A federal judge meanwhile ordered the U.S. Postal Service, attacked by watchdogs and Democrats for allegedly trying to help Trump claim a second term, to look for any missing ballots in its facilities across several swing states.”
Remember with states’ secessions & the ensuing civil war – we’re talking not just dissolution – but *imperial collapse – which is so critical for world peace!

Steal the vote
Some people believe deposing Trump is so necessary that any and all measures are justified.
Others of us maybe believe in that old Voltaire idea of disagreeing with an opinion but defending the right for an individual to hold and express it.
Monitoring “alternative” websites, it seems the “ends justify the means” cohort have a number of tricks in play, particularly the silencing of non MSM online communication.
Consider this:
/quote:
I work for Cloudflare.
Tomorrow, (Nov 3) social media companies (Twitter, Facebook, Reddit) are going to go dark for any information pertaining to the election of Donald J Trump (whether he wins or loses).
There will be no ability to discuss or try to share facts that might lean in Trump’s favor.
The media is about to do one of the biggest coordinated campaigns to ignore reality and gaslight the American people in the history of television.
Social Media will be right there by their side, giving them cover. The story they intend to plant into the social consciousness is this:
Regardless of who is winning / losing, it will be too close to call for Trump and any attempt for Trump to announce he has won will be black-holed and de-legitimized under the guise that more votes need to be counted before we can really know.
Eventually Biden may or may not make a play, but the media will not hold Biden’s plays to any scrutiny at all. Riots will ensue.
If you support Trump, you will find yourself completely alone between televised media and social media.
Your curiosity will be rewarded with gas-lighting and skewed stats, spun facts.
Nobody will be able to connect and publicly discuss what is an obvious ploy to de-legitimize a presidency, even if the media eventually acquiesces, a win by Trump will be forever shrouded in scandal and doubt, and the media will fan the flames.
>This will be the last time we can openly discuss the facts of this election.
>Pay close attention to exactly the order of operations tomorrow, as happenings, announcements, polls, and counts will change at will, and google will suddenly become very bad at finding specific results that you think you saw just hours before. Save anything and everything as you see it.
>Twitter, FB and youtube already deleting posts that “call the election”.

@NYT. Their “correction”:
Correction: We’ve deleted an earlier tweet that referred imprecisely to the role of the news media in the US presidential election.
The news media projects winners and reports results; it does not declare the winner of the election.
Are you not entertained. …..
At 1min past midnight Nov 4, twitter freezes Trumps tweeter.
Biden has already addressed media and established “we will win”.
And so the next stage of the narrative control begins….

It is the last two lines of this poem which is most disturbing. Bear in mind Years was a mason.
The Second Coming
BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
Stall tactics.
Gonna see if Hidin’ Biden has anything to say, besides “Come on, man! I need this to stay out of jail.”
Nope.
I’ll check on The Donald before I hit the sack.
Meanwhile, my raunchy election night round up is titled:
Countus Interruptus
“We’re tired!” said Wisconsin,
So, “Sorry, guys, not tonight,
The mood …is just not quite
Completely, satisfactorily right.”
Packing it in early Tuesday eve
A long time before midnight.
“We can’t go on any longer folks!
It just doesn’t “feel”….. right.”
Said the Democrat Secretaries
Of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio
And even Florida cannot be called
Red…..not even Texas or Georgia
Under any Deplorable circumstance!
Being hundreds of thousands
Of red votes ahead. in several
States that disobeyed….so what?
Give us a few days to fix this!
Tonight: Torture, Delay and Chaos
Are far, far more preferable, better
Than hearing from the American
People (that should just shut up
And eat MSM talking point shit)
In any definitive, conclusive way.
Deny, deny, deny, delay, delay
Any satisfaction for the voters!
Lock’em up Gates and Fauci
Throw the red victory key away!
Buckle up for a long tense week,
A long. rocky chafing ride, a travesty
Of massive proportions a Big F U
To those who disobey their masters.
Get a good night’s sleep patriots.
And lawyer up. And catch the thieves
In the act. This fight has just begun.
They won’t call it. But Trump won.
re: US Selection, We wont be getting a result tonite
As predicted: “We are up BIG, but they are trying to STEAL the Election. We will never let them do it. Votes cannot be cast after the Polls are closed!“

Everything’s going according to plan!

President Trump from the East Room of the White House:

It was about 2 am in DC when he spoke.
Deep State Demons and Lamestream Media are SCREWED. Including FOX. Tons of people in the chats are done with FAUX News.
Sack time…….and sweet dreams, y’all.
With the election today,strife over religions.terror attacks,etc. It got me to thinking about the lack of the Christian religion in the West. In Russia and a few other ex-Soviet states they had a fall of religiosity as well.But that was a deliberate government policy to destroy religion. It worked very will for decades.And its only now that many people in those countries are fully returning to belief in God.Not all by any means but a large number. And while some ideologies in the West are like that too.I don’t think that is the main reason in the West.I think there are two reasons in the West for the decline in religious belief.
One is the abortion issue,and second is the homosexual rights issue. The right to abortion on demand is very popular in the West. Especially among women,but many men too support it. And you can not believe fully in God’s teachings and support abortion. We see some people trying to turn twisters,trying to thread a needle to find anyway they can to rationalize it,but its not possible.And I think inside most of them know it themselves. Many have just given up trying, especially in the Liberal parties.They have become at best “religious in name only”.Others just simply deny God period. The Democrats in the US fall into that section.Those like Biden and Pelosi,try to say they are religious.Both directly deny the teaching of their church.Many others are fully atheist or agnostic.
As for homosexuality it’s the same The Christian church teaching condemns homosexuality. But today like abortion it has become a stalwart of the Liberal ideology practiced in the West today. Because of that those Christians in name only are following the same path as with abortion. Trying to somehow figure a way to rationalize supporting both homosexuality and their faith.
Once you cut core teachings out of your faith,how much further are you willing to rationalize God’s word.That in my opinion is why the West has its so-called crisis of faith. Islam doesn’t seem yet, to have that same crisis of faith.Muslims have stayed true to their faith’s teaching on those subjects.
Uncle Bob, a true spiritual teaching aims to offer the seeker spiritual exercises/techniques, that lead the individual to have a spiritual experience. Such experiences are to give the seeker a sense of himself beyond the personality/ego. Any teaching or teachers that prosleytise, moralise and attempt to say certain decisions that an individual makes where his personal life is concerned are right or wrong, is encroaching on the individual’s personal freedom. And, whether people recognise it or not, making such impositions on the individual, is against spiritual law. For example, flatly saying that abortion ( or homosexuality, for that matter ) is wrong without considering any of the conditions that go with each individual case, reveals that those people who are saying such things, do not understand the spiritual laws. A woman’s right to an abortion is or should be, her decision alone. The soul enters the body with the first breath of the newborn baby. Until that moment, the body growing within the mother, is a part of a single biological entity. Yes, the soul that is to enter the body of the new-born, is “around”, but until the newly born body is made available, it has yet to enter it. Sexuality, too, is or should be, a matter of personal choice, and must suit the individual’s makeup. I’m speaking from a spiritual viewpoint here, not the social consciousness, yet, these are the facts, like it or not.
@Dimitar
I agree with what you write but must ask, today we have drive thru abortions with $$$$signs attached to the aborted flesh………which is ok because the ‘breath of the spirit’ did not enter the entity? Very hard perhaps for some of us to sperate the social from the spiritual. How long before, if we don’t already have, a place for women to get pregnant then ‘sell’ the flesh of the unborn for profit? Slippy slope of madness.
For the record, I was ostricized from my ‘church’ at 15 for refusing to sigh an anti-abortion petition. I have no right to tell a woman what to do with her body, but that unborn baby is ‘nothing’? I cannot accept that personally. And, no, I have no answer……….but am open to suggestions. In some States, as a form of abortion, full term babies can be euthenized after they are delivered. So sad. Who counsels women to do that? Evil personified.
As I said, we may not like it, but these are the spiritual facts. I did not comment what people do, don’t do, or how they abuse these rights. KIndly, D.
