BREAKING NEWS ~ Continuously Updated

[iota]

there is so much occurring now even hourly, i feel like having a Central place to post is essential if we're going to keep up

many of us become privy or hear of tidbits but may not want to start a whole thread yet but just provide a piece of information

as a story develops it may be appropriate to move it to its own thread but for the breaking news AS it breaks we can at least give heads up here

to start, two huge stories are breaking

here is the first:

https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1340404187180482568

flights are being suspended ...


https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1340607142513045505

Thanks for these reports iota. But I will say those are not rockets in this video. Looks more like 50 caliber fire with tracers.

If they are firing at rockets we cannot see trying to stop them with 50 Cal is like using a squirt gun to put out a fire. You would need patriot missiles against rockets, at least.

[Heartsong]

If it's speculation, it's not news.

[Satori]

If it's speculation, it's not news.

It may be news, but those are not rockets. Perhaps it is ground fire at rockets. But that is futile. But, of course, I (we) have no way of knowing whether this video is even of recent vintage and is what it purports to be.

[iota]

If it's speculation, it's not news.

respectfully, i disagree

the fact that something IS being speculated, discussed? IS "News"

MANY a time, the actual facts were first intuitively discerned, AND 80% of what is reported AS "News" is NOT .. factual at least

it is nothing more than contrived, purely fabricated directives for the Official Social Narrative

here is a place to post all tidbits, pieces of information as emerging

if the story develops and someone wants to run with it, then they can do an official thread

until then we can at least get a "heads up" on what is being discussed and developing

i can try to look into it, the presentation makes me think, alarm is being raised, but for what purpose? i know not

could be distraction

or could be they are still hell bent on starting WWIII one incident or another

it will benefit those that it does

many a piece of information i came across was important and factual but i was not inclined to initiate a whole thread

also, the things that are being discussed (which if they came from the media, when researched would end up full of holes) are nevertheless important

particularly if we hope to know WHAT is the angle they are pushing for the actions that WILL be taken to affect our lives

it will also be helpful to be versed and knowledgeable when conversing with those outside of this particular circle - like 99% of the population

this will be of interest to many, and not ALL who visit ARE Avalonians ...

(just FYI ~ I (and most people that operate under fostering of personal power)

have INTENTIONALLY deleted the words "NEED to" and "SHOULD" from our vocabulary a good 10 or 20 yrs ago

Geez folks. Come up for air and take a breath. Iota is not responsible for the fake news and insanity out there. She reported something she felt was newsworthy. Take it for what it’s worth and drill down on the topic yourself, or not, if you want to try to get to the bottom of a news item or story.

Until ‘new’ reports are confirmed, please don’t ‘muddy the waters’
Appreciation for enthusiasm on web ‘reports’, but this is almost a ‘Before It’s News’ scenario...

ok ... this is the LAST post that will indulge suggestions (DIRECTIVES) on

WHAT i "SHOULD" do

and

HOW i "should" do it

there is ONLY one reason, i will address it and give example on how to effectively terminate the introduction of subtle vibrations and themes of Control/Domination

and that is because THIS is precisely the theme AND "challenge" that we are dealing with on a planetary level ~
i KNEW i should have done a whole thread on this long ago

to those who have ears to hear, may it serve you:

there IS a "contamination" that is infecting the planet and its inhabitants

it is intrusive, aggressive and relentless

it is promulgated in MANY forms and pushed in almost EVERY avenue without respect or limit

irrespective of its form or source for that matter, its objective is the SAME

Control and Domination

INFRINGEMENT of the WILL of one ~ upon ANOTHER

currently, the "cancel culture" has taken up the torch

before, it appeared in almost every area of our lives

i've said before, that NOT one of us will be "exempt" from being confronted with this issue

but it is nothing more than a "challenge"
a "Lesson" to pass
an "Issue" to MASTER

as a collective, we have FAILED

NO ONE has EVER "taken" our power

WE have collectively relinquished it

at home
at work
with friends
our church/place of worship
communities (like this one)

we WILL encounter it

it is an "opportunity" to CHOOSE

c'est toute

but the price of THAT choice is SIGNIFICANT

the ends of which are largely divergent and end up defining us

what we all are specifically subjected to (confronted with) continuously

is BEING true to ourselves (empowered)
vs Betrayal of Self (giving our power away)

(remember the Bard, and every other Being humanity was 'gifted' with to support in our evolutionary development)

their many words, and many messages had a central theme

BE TRUE TO YOU

RETAIN YOUR POWER

but one cannot "master" this without "opportunities"

so when at home our partner asks (a demand in actuality) that
WE "change"/ "conform"/ follow their directives

THEIR idea of WHAT is APPROPRIATE for us?

it is shaping us internally

and the choice we make is not between one of peace or not

it is between personal empowerment or acquiescence (relinquishment of power)

did you incarnate to be "someone else's idea of you?"
or your own?

same as being played out planetary level

CHOICE: ENSLAVEMENT or FREEDOM

the fact that people WILL try to INFRINGE should not come as a surprise
they WILL

surprising is how often one has "caved" given in, thought this "one little thing makes no difference"

and EACH time? it did

it eroded a little part of us

and WE were "watching" ourselves

WE noted and respect began to falter

from others?
oh yea .. the minute we CAVE? (they "get our number")

but they don't matter ... WE do ...

what WE know of OURSELF ... MATTERS

sometimes when it is the 10000th aggression

(because it IS an "aggression" an "affront"

a rude disrespect to presume to tell an intelligent adult HOW to conduct themselves

and to ask for JUSTIFICATION of why they do as they do

and suggest (IMPOSE one's will) that they conform to the standards of another)

call it what you like?
it IS what it IS

we can just say "no thank you"

we can adamantly say ENOUGH

and sometimes, when it is the umpteenth time and it is going to take a CLEAR message to END the affront?

it becomes appropriate that i apologize

i say: "i am SO sorry, if there is ANYTHING i said or did that indicated that:

i was looking for a way to "win" your approval?
or that i wanted you to TELL me HOW i should be?
or that your opinion in any way SHOULD be what i choose to conform to
or that what YOU think should be the STANDARD from which i base my choices?

sorry i gave you that impression

because it is wrong

please don't feel free to try to reduce me to a being who must meet with your approval"

and you know what?

I (and you) AM allowed to assert myself
when someone else is taking the liberty to IMPOSE or INFRINGE upon me (us)?

i am not under compulsion to be deflated or victimized OR acquiesce OR conform
(and neither are you, just sayin')

whether we see it or not?

the choice that lies before us (on the world stage) is the same:

will we accept the enslavement?
or will we assert our RIGHT to FREEDOM?

and believe it or not?
we ARE answering this on a day to day basis with our personal choices

this is an actual conversation with my son, who was mad at me for who knows what?

"son, did i do something you don't approve of? (again)

please consider that there are 7 billion of us on the planet
and of ALL 7 billion?
it is highly UNLIKELY that even ONE awakens with the thought of

HOW may i please you?
HOW can i modify my behavior to make it acceptable to you?

so .....

the chances that someone WILL behave or make choices
other than what WE would like?
are pretty darned good ...

can it stop being such a surprise when it happens?
or something to make a big deal over?

and hey, you are FREE to make the choice to be upset every time that happens

but just so we know, IF you CHOOSE to make the choice to be upset
EACH time someone's choices don't meet with your approval?

you will be making the choice to be upset .... OFTEN

(and yes, i am aware it must have been a "trip" to have me as a mother)

but that doesn't change the fact that what i said was true

:sun:

people don't like it when i assert myself
i kow this, sometimes it rubs them the wrong way
and they balk at MY audacity
one quick way to become "persona non grata"

failing to see that maybe i didn't like it when i was affronted
i can't fail to assert myself to maintain validation

i'd love for you to like me
but not at the expense of denial of self
that price would be too high

i have to maintain my OWN self-respect
my OWN validation
cuz i am ALWAYS watching ... ME

now for the love of Source ...
can we please stick to NEW stories?

the whole CONTROL/DOMINATION paradigm is very, very OLD news

:focus:

UPDATE: FINAL thoughts

well, this was ONE way to derail a thread

and i will make just one more request:

please don't put me in a position to have to justify or defend myself
because, on occasion? it is likely that i will ...

if the world operated like this
do you think that the infection of communism would have stood a chance?

we all know the answer to this question

Russian scientist working on COVID-19 vaccine plummets to death in St. Petersburg

glob Intel reports:

"Alexander “Sasha” Kagansky Bio, Wiki

Alexandra “Sasha” Kagansky, A prominent Russian scientist who was working on a COVID-19 vaccine was found dead with a stab wound after plummeting out his window in St. Petersburg. The New York Post reported his body was found on the street outside his bedroom window in Russia.

Kagansky was a Director of a Center for Genomic and Regenerative Medicine, School of Biomedicine at the Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok, Russia, according to his profile on the Global Young Academy website. His research was focused on understanding diseases on the molecular level and cancer research. His work was described as “crucial for the future of molecular medicine.”



https://twitter.com/thecomplotheory/status/1340691088210882561

Russian police are questioning a 45-year-old man as a possible suspect in Kagansky’s death. His death is being investigated as a possible homicide, The New York Post reported. Police believe there may have been a scuffle before Kagansky fell from his bedroom window.

An unidentified source told e2news.com that a 45-year-old biologist had been visiting a friend in the building.

A neighbor found Kagansky’s body, clad only in underwear, according to the Jewish Press. Kagansky lived in a 16-story building in the Kalininsky district of St. Petersburg. His body was found on Zamshin Street. Police learned he fell from the 14th-story window the day before.

His profile says:

Alexander (Sasha) Kagansky is a Director of a Center for Genomic and Regenerative Medicine, School of Biomedicine at the Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok, Russia. Research in his centre is aimed at the understanding of the molecular basis of the cell fate in normal cells and disease, drug discovery and at finding ways to cure cancer and regenerate tissues, which will be crucial for the future of molecular medicine.

a story is emerging


Murdered Russian Scientist May have been Close to Discovering
the Chinese Government Connection to Covid

Was Dr. Alexander Kagansky close to a cure for Coronavirus, or was it something else that killed the young scientist?

"The internet is rife with speculation that Kagansky was working on a cure to Covid-19, and close to a discovery that Russian or Chinese intelligence did not want him to make. Vladivostok, the only year round ice free port in Russia, is just across the border with China. Was his death part of a Chinese cover-up?

It has been long speculated that the worldwide Coronavirus pandemic of 2020 started when a virus, natural or altered, escaped from a Chinese laboratory. The Chinese PLA's principal bioweapons laboratory is located in Wuhan, China, where the Covid-19 index case was discovered late in 2019. The Chinese government has tried to blame it on a wet market a mile away from the lab. More recently, the CCP has blamed the pandemic on frozen food imported from the US.

Kagansky's CV says that the 45 year old scientist was working on unlocking the keys to human aging"

closing trade and borders ... for a mutation that they have openly stated is NOT more lethal? ...

and this video? ... just seemed appropriate ... different time, yet the words and images could be this year ... funny how things don't change ..

ok ... here is one that will directly impact our community and those like us ..


VISITING "BAD WEBSITES" WILL LOWER YOUR CREDIT SCORE, SAYS IMF

Your Search History Will Determine Your Financial Credit Score In Future, Says IMF
In a new blog post for the International Monetary Fund, four researchers presented their findings from a working paper (read below) that examines the current relationship between finance and tech as well as its potential future.

The researchers propose using the data from your browsing, search, and purchase history to create a mechanism for determining the credit rating of an individual or business.

The plan is outlined in a blog written by Arnoud Boot, Peter Hoffmann, Luc Laeven and Lev Ratnovski, pitching the Orwellian notion as a breakthrough in financial technology (Fintech).

Fintech resolves the dilemma by tapping various nonfinancial data: the type of browser and hardware used to access the internet, the history of online searches and purchases. Recent research documents that, once powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning, these alternative data sources are often superior than traditional credit assessment methods, and can advance financial inclusion.

LIN WOOD’S MOST IMPORTANT MESSAGE OF THE YEAR


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0mDxnJMi_Q

Thanks Chris...this gives possibly the clearest picture I've heard on how events might unfold over the next few days & weeks, not just in the US but globally too.

If what Lin Wood says does come to pass then the changes for us all will be profound....including not least - it sounds like - the start of a push-back against the murderous scam that is the covid pandemic. This can, I hope, only be good news for us all...

[Sue (Ayt)]

Hmmm - all the mainstream news outlets today are simultaneously headlining this story on the old (1988) Lockerbie bombing.
US to announce new criminal charges Monday in Pan Am terrorist bombing (https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/20/politics/lockerbie-pan-am-103-barr/index.html).

[Deborah (ahamkara)]

This is particularly chilling. It is a new form of control, less direct, but shaping behavior to conform to a totalitarian mind set.

ok ... here is one that will directly impact our community and those like us ..


VISITING "BAD WEBSITES" WILL LOWER YOUR CREDIT SCORE, SAYS IMF

Your Search History Will Determine Your Financial Credit Score In Future, Says IMF
In a new blog post for the International Monetary Fund, four researchers presented their findings from a working paper (read below) that examines the current relationship between finance and tech as well as its potential future.

The researchers propose using the data from your browsing, search, and purchase history to create a mechanism for determining the credit rating of an individual or business.

The plan is outlined in a blog written by Arnoud Boot, Peter Hoffmann, Luc Laeven and Lev Ratnovski, pitching the Orwellian notion as a breakthrough in financial technology (Fintech).

Fintech resolves the dilemma by tapping various nonfinancial data: the type of browser and hardware used to access the internet, the history of online searches and purchases. Recent research documents that, once powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning, these alternative data sources are often superior than traditional credit assessment methods, and can advance financial inclusion.

FLASH MOB in Oregon State Capital.

Written by Steve Cannon for USSA News.

Congress and the courts have all but admitted that they do not want to get involved in the election results because they’re scared of Antifa and any repercussions.

Currently, Republican Rep. Mo Brooks, Tommy Tuberville, and Matt Gaetz, all plan to block the certification of the election results come January 6th.

These are the only three men we have on our side, not including Trump himself.

The people have had enough and are finally taking matters into their own hands.

We the people own this country, not the do-nothing politicians. Watch the videos below for proof of ownership:

After months of left-wing violence against police officers, Conservatives are demanding police stand with them saying,

“…police better get in line and pick a side. We supported you heavy, now it is time to stand with us”

The ‘Great’ Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn


at this very moment:

Skywatchers are in for an end-of-year treat. What has become known popularly as the “Christmas Star” is an especially vibrant planetary conjunction easily visible in the evening sky over the next two weeks as the bright planets Jupiter and Saturn come together, culminating on the night of Dec. 21.

In 1610, Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei pointed his telescope to the night sky, discovering the four moons of Jupiter – Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. In that same year, Galileo also discovered a strange oval surrounding Saturn, which later observations determined to be its rings. These discoveries changed how people understood the far reaches of our solar system.

Thirteen years later, in 1623, the solar system’s two giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn, traveled together across the sky. Jupiter caught up to and passed Saturn, in an astronomical event known as a “Great Conjunction.”

“You can imagine the solar system to be a racetrack, with each of the planets as a runner in their own lane and the Earth toward the center of the stadium,” said Henry Throop, astronomer in the Planetary Science Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “From our vantage point, we’ll be able to be to see Jupiter on the inside lane, approaching Saturn all month and finally overtaking it on December 21.”

The planets regularly appear to pass each other in the solar system, with the positions of Jupiter and Saturn being aligned in the sky about once every 20 years.

What makes this year’s spectacle so rare, then? It’s been nearly 400 years since the planets passed this close to each other in the sky, and nearly 800 years since the alignment of Saturn and Jupiter occurred at night, as it will for 2020, allowing nearly everyone around the world to witness this “great conjunction.”

The closest alignment will appear just a tenth of a degree apart and last for a few days. On the 21st, they will appear so close that a pinkie finger at arm’s length will easily cover both planets in the sky. The planets will be easy to see with the unaided eye by looking toward the southwest just after sunset."

many believe that this will herald the end of a 200 yr cycle, the death of the old, the completion of an era. this is what is in the heart and mind of at least 75 million i know of ... the thing to note is that two things cannot occupy the SAME space

in order for the new to enter, first we must release the old, what is presently there. sometimes this feels a bit unstable, the old ways gave us some degree of comfort, we were "used" to them, however, we have become painfully aware that those we "entrusted" to handle affairs, were undeserving of the trust we placed upon them. to continue? THAT is unstable ...

the truth is that relying on others to "handle" affairs that impact us directly? ... was NEVER a good idea ... stability will come as WE reach for a more direct hold of the wheel that steers OUR affairs ... anything else leaves someone else "in charge" of us, and if THAT is the CHOICE we make? we cannot complain about its consequences ...

may the empowerment that is seeking to emerge and connect with us ALL be welcomed and granted access by ALL

:flower::heart::flower:

this would be a great moment to stop and reflect and select at least one pattern, one way of being, one theme that has had a negative impact on one's life ... and make the choice RIGHT now, to release it.

a simple intention empowered by one's will is sufficient, and maybe that's the one that's needed ... release of powerlessness and return of one's will ... a return of the power that is RIGHTFULLY ~ OURS

45529

there can be no doubt, that as in 2016 Hillary was the expected victor? Biden is her successor.
and China the puppeteer. the proposal above is directly sourced from China's Social Credit

this is what it looks like:

"People can be rewarded or punished according to their scores.

Like private credit scores, a person's social score can move up and down depending on their behavior. The exact methodology is a secret — but examples of infractions include bad driving, smoking in non-smoking zones, buying too many video games and posting fake news online.

1. Banning you from flying or getting the train.

China has already started punishing people by restricting their travel.

Nine million people with low scores have been blocked from buying tickets for domestic flights, Channel News Asia reported in March, citing official statistics.

They can also clamp down on luxury options — three million people are barred from getting business-class train tickets.

The eventual system will punish bad passengers specifically. Potential misdeeds include trying to ride with no ticket, loitering in front of boarding gates, or smoking in no-smoking areas.

2. Throttling your internet speeds.

According to Foreign Policy, credit systems monitor whether people pay bills on time, much like financial credit trackers — but also ascribe a moral dimension.

Other mooted punishable offences include spending too long playing video games, wasting money on frivolous purchases and posting on social media.

Spreading fake news, specifically about terrorist attacks or airport security, will also be punishable offences.

3. Banning you — or your kids — from the best schools.

17 people who refused to carry out military service last year were barred from enrolling in higher education, applying for high school, or continuing their studies, Beijing News reported.

In July, a Chinese university denied an incoming student his spot because the student's father had a bad social credit score.

4. Stopping you getting the best jobs.

"Trust-breaking" individuals would also be banned from doing management jobs in state-owned firms and big banks.

Some crimes, like fraud and embezzlement, would also have a big effect on social credit, Botsman reported.

5. Keeping you out of the best hotels.

People who refused military service were also banned from some holidays and hotels — showing that vacation plans are fair game too.

The regime rewards people here as well as punishes them.

People with good scores can speed up travel applications to places like Europe, Botsman said.

An unidentified woman in Beijing also told the BBC in 2015 that she was able to book a hotel without having to pay a cash deposit because she had a good score.

6. Getting your dog taken away.
(i'd honestly become homicidal)

The eastern Chinese city of Jinan started enforcing a social credit system for dog owners in 2017, whereby pet owners get points deducted if the dog is walked without a leash or causes public disturbances.

Those who lost all their points had their dogs confiscated and had to take a test on regulations required for pet ownership.

7. Being publicly named as a bad citizen.

Naming and shaming is another tactic available. A a 2016 government notice encourages companies to consult the blacklist before hiring people or giving them contracts.

However, people will be notified by the courts before they are added to the list, and are allowed to appeal against the decision within ten days of receiving the notification.

Li Xiaolin, a lawyer who was placed on the list in 2015, found himself unable to purchase plane tickets home while on a work trip, Human Rights Watch reported. He also couldn't apply for credit cards.

There is also a list for good citizens

— that will reportedly get you more matches on dating websites.

The BBC said that Baihe, China's biggest dating site, is boosting the profiles of good citizens.

They can also get discounts on energy bills, rent things without deposits, and get better interest rates at banks.

so we are to be "watched" and "controlled" ~ rewarded or punished. like when we were kids, except that was our parents and they loved us. this is more like property

YOUR body
THEIR SAY

the practice was getting humans at least as obedient as our pets

like my puppy

i keep threatening to muzzle (mask) her if she doesn't stop eating things when i walk her

i taught her "STAY"

and i have taken her body and vaccinated it

I am, after all, her master.

the thing is ~ humans aren't pets

though i sure wish i could find the trainers that have trained all the humans in my city,
they did an excellent job ... too good maybe..:facepalm:

Under the proposed Stimulus Legislation, Americans are to get a $600 Stimulus Check. If passed, here is where the rest of our money will go


45530

** UPDATE **

Rep. Matt Gaetz just announced:

"Democrats quietly acknowledged the outlandish provisions in their omnibus legislation tonight by splitting their original legislation into two separate votes.

I voted “yes” on the half of the bill which funds our military and provides a pay raise for the brave men and women who serve America.

I voted “no” on the second half of the spending bill, which provides windfalls to corporate special interests, while simultaneously shortchanging American citizens.

While the Defense/Homeland Security/CJS/FSGG bill is not perfect, it provides crucial support for our servicemembers, and it gives America’s armed forces the tools they need to succeed, both now and in the future.

It also did not place arbitrary and unfair limits on the President’s authority to withdraw troops — and to draw down endless, unconstitutional wars.

The other half of the Democrats’ bill, however, denies a simple truth — no amount of government-sponsored generational theft will do our people better than an open economy.

It continues to subsidize the heartless, reactionary lockdown ideology of Speaker Pelosi and Leader Schumer’s political allies

America’s struggling workers should be prioritized over gender-specific programs in Pakistan or anti-narcotics programs in Burma, or money for Ukraine (all of which are funded in this bill)

It doubles down on many failed Democrat policies, giving special interests billions of dollars in perks, while giving our fellow Americans a paltry payment of only $600.

America deserves better than this swamp sludge"

Vatican Source Says Pope Francis To Step Down by Christmas

A source close to the Vatican has reported that Pope Francis will be stepping down from the Papacy before the end of the year. There is “no doubt” the Pontiff “will resign in 2020”, the source confirmed.

Pope Francis became head of the Catholic Church following the unexpected resignation of Pope Benedict XVI in 2013 and has been unpopular among U.S. Catholics for his radical stances on same-sex marriage, illegal immigration, and global warming as well as his support for Black Lives Matter.

The Daily Express reports:

The 83-year-old became head of the Catholic Church following the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI – a controversial move and the first of its kind in more than 500 years. However, a source close to Pope Francis claimed he would only serve for seven years, stating he would follow in the footsteps of his predecessor. Austen Ivereigh is the former Director for Public Affairs of the previous Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor and continues to work closely with the Vatican.

He said: “I don’t think there’s ever been any doubt that he will resign in 2020.

“He made clear from the beginning that he regarded Pope Benedict’s (XVI) act as a prophetic act of great modesty and he would have absolutely no problem in doing the same.

“What was interesting was he said to Mexican television in 2014 that he believed that he would have a short papacy of about five years.

“What I’m hearing now from people close to him is that he’s going to need seven years to achieve his five-year plan and that, of course, would mean staying on until 2020.”

If Mr Ivereigh is correct, it suggests Francis could resign after Christmas so as to avoid letting his papacy run into 2021.

Speaking in a lengthy television interview with the Mexican programme ‘Noticieros Televisa,’ the Pontiff responded to a question from journalist Valentina Alazraki about the length of his papacy.

He said: “I have the feeling that my pontificate will be brief.

”Four or five years. I do not know, or two, three. Well, two have already passed.

“It’s like a little vague feeling, but I have the feeling that the Lord puts me [here] for a brief thing and not more.”

were i tasked to form a conclusion? it would be that the odds of President Trump remaining in power are pretty darned good in MY estimation. Nothing about the President's choices since the election are indicative of a President whose job is terminating, but of one looking towards the future, and "cleaning house". Even the recent development of Barr's departure is a "nod" in that direction. This man has a long history and ties to Biden which span decades ... he would have most certainly remained "for old time's sake" at least ...


Bill Barr and Joe Biden ... early years

why would they need a hologram of the pope when hes just sitting on his arse doing nothing , and able to make a real appearance?

don't know for sure .. the word at the time was that the reason that would be "needed" is because he was no longer available to actually make the appearance. and no one is surprised in the least that his absence is to be permanent ...

holograms, are not just possible, they are fact

this is who Gates chose as his spokesperson to showcase right before our eyes, knowing full well that MANY of us know exactly who this is and EXACTLY the type of evil she represents.

there is much that we do NOT know, and honestly, i'm grateful to be spared an understanding of soooome things ... you know?


FC1zYcYla-0

they say "ignorance is bliss" in this case? i sure would agree ... i have zero desire to understand the mind of Marina Abramovic

for those unfamiliar with the entity that made "spirit cooking" reprehensibly famous, article here:
https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020/04/14/microsoft-publishes-then-takes-down-commercial-with-spirit-cooker-marina-abramovic/

i will say this ... when i saw this video at the time it was released? i knew the days of freedom were now in outright jeopardy, evil (depraved minds existed) but they had always taken care to lurk hidden in the shadows

to come out in public display without apology or disguise showed a reckless disregard for what we might've opined ... and that "reckless disregard" HAD to HAVE a reason ...

these are the nuances that escape most we know and love, that alert those watchful to the nearness of the "changes in the tide" and the proximity of their arrival

here is one way a hologram was used in a different manner by Kanye for his wife Kim:


Vi3usKazImw

before we run off the corridors of our minds with "opinions" it would be good to remember we spoke of this

neither Kim
nor Ye

are in any way obliged to meet with
nor TRY to meet with anyone else's approval

as much as the ENTIRE planet would like to MAKE them

respect for ourselves, begins as we extend the same to others
because if we cannot give it?
we cannot request it either, right?

i will look for it Philippe ... and i agree completely ... Doug was asking for motives earlier, WHY they do the things they do? and its because it is almost a necessity to acquire some sort of "skill" at deciphering the things they do and tell us

i, too, for quite a long time now, have surmised that "COVID" has provided the "perfect cover" to hide, or explain an absence (detainment OR escape) etc.

Looks like the Democrats are going to cave on his demand to up the amount to $2000 per person.

BREITBART reports:

"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday endorsed President Donald Trump’s demand to increase coronavirus relief checks for the American people.

"Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent,” Pelosi wrote on Twitter. “Let’s do it!”

“Republicans repeatedly refused to say what amount the President wanted for direct checks. At last, the President has agreed to $2,000 — Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent. Let’s do it!
https://t.co/Th4sztrpLV

— Nancy Pelosi (@SpeakerPelosi) December 23, 2020

The president demanded in a video posted to Twitter Tuesday night that Congress increase the payments from $600 to $2,000.

The massive 5,593-page bill was passed by both the House and the Senate on Monday night but immediately drew criticism for sending billions of dollars of aid to foreign countries but only $600 relief checks to Americans.

The president did not say he would veto the bill but demanded that Congress amend it before sending it to his desk."

i'm just a bit concerned because it never sits well with me when these two sides agree on anything ...

it is a 5,593-page bill ... and just like i used to say of the NDAA they like to "stick things in there"

and i'm not speaking of the OBVIOUS, the distractions so that everyone's focus is directed there ... such as the $10m for Pakistan ‘gender programs’?

something outrageous like that is ALWAYS a clue that something ELSE is going on that needs a suitable distraction

"Look over THERE"

i hope, our President is on to THIS game and searching ....

because rumor has it that one thing NOT being discussed is a clause in there that will basically nullify the insurrection act.

Pelosi JUMPING to agree without a ferocious fight? who would not be immediately suspicious?

sure hope this "gift" doesn't come at a price too costly in the long run ...:

let's keep our fingers crossed and maybe a nod up above that things turn out for the best this time

digging a little deeper into the Hologram theme it seems that there have been some new and exciting developments in the field

SYFI WIRE reports:

"When the first Star Wars movie came out in 1977, Leia could have never imagined there would eventually be something that was a level up from R2-D2 when it came to sending hologram messages.

Imagine Leia had appeared to Obi-Wan and Luke as if she had stepped through a portal. They would also see her life-size and in full color, not that ghastly shade of blue that made her look like a cosmic ghost. Now PORTL has come up with the first hologram machine ever that can do that. Plug it in and you can tell Obi-Wan he’s your only hope in minutes. It works just as well in daylight as it does in darkness as black as the void of space. It is also completely self-contained and much more user-friendly than R2, who had to endure a few glitches and repairs before he he was beep-booping again.

Here’s another thing the droid couldn’t do: PORTL can beam in both live and pre-recorded holograms in 4K resolution. R2 was just an answering machine.

“PORTL is the most versatile hologram device on the market,” PORTL CEO and inventor David Nussbaum told SYFY WIRE. “PORTL allows for multiple machines to be networked together so an entertainer can beam into 100 cities around the world simultaneously with the ability to hear, see, and interact with their global audiences.”


W0l6IelMQGU

"Right now, one of these machines—which wowed con-goers at San Diego Comic Con in 2019 (above and in the video)—will set you back $60K. PORTL machines are materializing around the world at malls, airports and museums. Nussbaum is looking to miniaturize this technology to eventually make it available to everyone. It will be capable of all the effects that the full-size studio has, from the portal illusion to the eerily lifelike holograms, but accessible from a device closer to the size of a laptop or tablet. Nussbaum is optimistic.

“When we offer it to the consumer market, The Mini PORTL will be hologram Zoom, meets virtual Alexa, mixed with the exclusive content opportunities similar to Peloton or Masterclass,” he said."

U.S. Attorney General William Barr departs his home in McLean, Virginia. Win McNamee/Getty Images

here is an excerpt of Barr's resignation letter where Barr praises the president effusively, saying that he is:

“greatly honored that you called on me to serve your Administration and the American people once again as Attorney General.”

“I am proud to have played a role in the many successes and unprecedented achievements you have delivered for the American people,” Barr writes. He continues:

Your record is all the more historic because you accomplished it in the face of relentless, implacable resistance. Your 2016 victory speech in which you reached out to your opponents and called for working together for the benefit of the American people was immediately met by a partisan onslaught against you in which no tactic, no matter how abusive and deceitful, was out of bounds. The nadir of this campaign was the effort to cripple, if not oust, your Administration with frenzied and baseless accusations of collusion with Russia."

Vox writes:

"This is a truly remarkable statement, given that Barr was tasked with overseeing the conclusion of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Barr has made no secret of his distaste for the Russia probe, and he made controversial moves that critics say undercut Mueller’s work, from misleadingly framing Mueller’s findings in an early summary to questionable interventions in the cases of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and Trump associate Roger Stone, both of whom were charged in the special counsel’s investigation.

source:
https://www.vox.com/2020/12/14/22175221/bill-barr-resigns-trump-attorney-general

NOTE: President Trump has now fully pardoned both Roger Stone (today) and General Flynn

UPDATE: Barr will be replaced by Deputy Attorney General Jeff Rosen, which follows the ordinary course for the succession of power in the department.

Until ‘new’ reports are confirmed, please don’t ‘muddy the waters’
Appreciation for enthusiasm on web ‘reports’, but this is almost a ‘Before It’s News’ scenario...


If it's speculation, it's not news.

so unless now YOU would like to dispute the information of the leader of our country? it turns out that not only are you ill mannered and presumptuous and and out of line to impose what YOU want on another (me) ?

you were also completely wrong

an apology would be nice

if you felt completely at liberty to express and attempt to enforce your UNASKED for opinion, putting me in a position to have to defend and justify my choices to you, total strangers? while i was just trying to provide something of benefit, not harm or bother anyone? well, please allow me to give you mine since your behavior DID ask for it?

that was most ungracious and outrageous to presume to impose YOUR will, YOUR standards, YOUR expectations on another (me)...

we all have opinions, most of us just wouldn't dream of attempting to coerce another to appease us, and if this lack of respect is the way you conduct yourself in your personal relationships? imposing on them what you think

they SHOULD
or
they NEED to?

its likely that more apologies are in order

and since i am a human being that is different than you? (and i have it on good account that ALL of us are?) the chances are that in the future i (and others) may just do something again that doesn't meet with your approval. so let's go ahead and prepare for that possibility ok?

so, i would appreciate it if the next time something i do doesn't meet exactly with
YOUR expectations or YOUR approval?

that you don't feel free to impose them on me or reduce me to someone in need of your approval again ... thanks

Geez iota, take a chill pill it's all gonna be okay. :)

First off, a close up picture of 3 rockets on a Twitter feed contains no more evidence of anything in particular than the original videos did, even if it's from dear leader.

And people are allowed to disagree with, and/or question things other members post, that's part of being a discussion forum. I didn't see anyone being rude to you.

Dear Gracy

since it didn't happen to you? it's not your place to determine my feelings on MY experience, right?

even if you disagree? i get to feel what i feel

i was so sweet and patient with them initially, and they just continued ...

sorry if you felt this was an opening for your to insert or decide what that should be. i notice you do that a LOT

or that i was asking for your approval on my feelings or opinion on HOW i should feel

i really wasn't.

i wasn't looking for suggestions on how to respond nor was i up to further requests for further justification.

but thanks .. since it was perfectly polite and logical i'm fine with my response

if you wouldn't mind re-reading it with your self in mind? i highlighted a few applicable points

PS i don't think i've seen more than one post of you actually contributing or providing information, but i've seen plenty of your opinion on how we SHOULD feel or spiced with sarcasm at our views in support of our President.

i'm sorry you don't think we should feel as we do towards him,

i'm even sorrier you choose to spend so much time expressing it to us, as soon as i saw you in here when i posted? i had no doubt you were going to tell me how i SHOULD be feeling about this too.

again, let's just take it as a given, that i'm likely to think differently than you, like different things than you do, and make different choices than you would. and that's just life, ok? i'm not looking for your approval on any of it, ok? and i really would prefer to not have this conversation again.

Alright, mod hat on here.

iota. It’s not my concern what you think, what you post, how you feel, or whether we’re in agreement on any given issue. All I’m asking is that you not be so mortally offended by, and having a go at, anyone who is not in full agreement with you, and dares express it.

This is not a blog, it’s a discussion forum, and people are free to respectfully disagree.

:focus:

there is nothing even faintly or remotely objective about your very subjective "mortally offended" interpretation which would be an essential aspect of moderating.

as there was nothing even remotely inappropriate of my response

as the case had nothing to do with disagreement on a subject, which would be not only appropriate, but encouraged

the objection, to which i have every right is in regards specifically with ME (personally)
HOW i do things and WHY?

which is precisely YOUR transgression

and as i asked them to STOP that

now i'm asking you

Iota, I posted a complimentary comment to you regarding the new proposed thread, about ‘muddying the waters’.
This was a constructive observation that if all those new ‘breaking news’ items were hidden under a thread on an open forum, many folk would never see or commentate, on your thread, therefore cancelling out ‘news’, whether relevant or irrelevant. So, the ‘breaking news’ should always be posted as separate threads, to ensure maximum research and diagnoses on our forum.
Thank you for your absolute enthusiasm, and your valuable research on the current situation in the USA.

there is just a difference between "i think" (suggestion)

and statements of SHOULD (that is a directive and does not leave open avenue to choose otherwise)

and even now, the "suggestion" aspect is a little bit obscured and sounds more like a directive ...

i actually coach people on this subject

everyone we know is subjected to well meaning folks who don't realize that their "suggestions" are not leaving enough "wiggle room" to clarify respect that the person they are making the 'suggestion' to is an adult, perfectly capable of thinking for themselves.

if we don't communicate that it was JUST a "suggestion" ~ and if the person thinks otherwise, THEIR ideas would be respected? ... then that point is not understood because it is not made

because its kinda my subject? i can't fail to give example of how to effectively communicate and/or terminate unwanted infringements

because by the same token, people can't be expected to "know" what one has failed to communicate, right? they are NOT responsible for our UNspoken input ...

in personal relationships that usually creates a breakdown of relationships because people want their own agency

yours alone, might have been ok ... but it kinda turned into a free for all with everyone chiming in what they "thought" it should look like or how it should be instead of implement THEIR ideas in THEIR own projects and leaving me (allowing me) to do mine in mine ...

granting THIS thread at least as much validity as their ideas of what it "SHOULD", you see? and when it seemed to snowball? that really derailed the thread. all the excitement at this shinny new project seemed to get mud thrown on it ..

not very nice and i wouldn't do that to someone .... anyone else would have been completely discouraged and given up, even i was a little deflated ... :( does that make sense?

now what i wanted here?

i was tired of Twitter being the "source", they disrespect our President, the President of the United States!

he speaks (or tries to), they chime in, stepping in to "evaluate" him and censor
(maybe i was relating a bit, hahahaha)

so anyways as i explained at the onset the intention here, is quick news or stories or what is being discussed right now

just to give a heads up

some will be fleeting news for the day

others may gain legs and someone might want to start and dedicate a whole thread to it

either way ... that is THIS thread. and it would be great if those that like the idea and can support, enjoy or contribute? visit here, and others find the things they enjoy and visit there ...

we're good Avid, and thanks for taking the time to explain and thanks for noticing the work i have put into my contributions here!

apparently the President addressed the Nation last night ... and NONE of the major stations carried it. It begins in this video at 1;30
it is short but very important communication to our nation ... as would be ANY time our President speaks


d399gk-73J8

start at 1:30 to skip intro. placed here because the news did NOT make it available elsewhere .. so it goes in "news" classification until carried widely

in this speech, he CLEARLY outlines to the American Public what happened giving concrete examples.

my takeaway? he is not giving up and he has no plans on leaving

Hello friends. I think these are trying times and it’s nice to see two members disagree then agree to disagree. Avalon has been special to me all these years for just that reason. Members have many different opinions and viewpoints and while we might react emotionally at times, in the end reason usually prevails. Ideas, opinions, reaction, perspectives- it is all constantly shifting and changing. New information forces us to challenge old preconceptions. For me, I see my ego constantly being challenged, so I know how hard it is to walk away from what I see as a personal challenge.

In my experience, threads sometimes take on a life of their own and twist and turn in quite unexpected ways!, it’s quite the ride. Merry Christmas and A Return to Light. Much love to all.

in an UNexpected turn of events, a


Law suit has been filed against Vice President Pence


45568

RAW STORY reports:

"The lawsuit names Pence as a defendant due to his "legal obligations under the Constitution and federal law" to preside over Congress's ratification of the presidential election that's due to take place on January 6th.

Take advantage of our limited time offer. Go ad-free for just $2 a week. Support independent journalism.
The suit claims that Pence should not be allowed to count the electoral college's votes because state legislatures have not "affirmatively voted to certify the Presidential electors," despite the fact that the electoral college has already voted and given Biden 306 votes, which is more than what he needs to win the presidency.

"The Vice President and U.S. Congress act unconstitutionally in this election and future elections when they count votes of Presidential electors where the respective state legislature has not affirmatively voted in favor of post-election certification," the lawsuit states."

i'm not sure how to interpret this. that Republicans are serious about not allowing an illegal coup to take place, i understand and that level of insistence IS what it will take.

but what i'm wondering is if sufficient reason exist to DOUBT the loyalty of the Vice President. here Newsmax played a short clip of the words and promises he has made:

Vice President Pence stated, specifically "and i PROMISE you this ..



"Come Jan. 5th, we are going to hold the line in the Senate and reelect a Republican majority, as our election
continues we are going to keep fighting until every legal vote is counted and every illegal vote is thrown out."

"Vice President Mike Pence plans to oversee the Electoral College vote on January 6th, and then leave the country for a trip to Israel, Bahrain, and Poland.
Politico reported last week that Vice President Pence is tentatively planning a trip to the countries of Israel, Bahrain, and Poland, and will be leaving the country directly after he takes charge of counting the Electoral College votes in Congress on January 6th. One Pence ally told Politico that the timing of the trip is “anything but coincidental.”

“On the surface, the trip is part of a push to underscore the Trump administration’s role in brokering a series of diplomatic agreements to normalize relations between Israel and a handful of Arab countries, including Bahrain,” Politico notes. “[But the Israel trip also] allows Pence… to put distance between himself and Trump’s complaints about the election outcome that are likely to intensify after Congress affirms Biden’s win.”

Walmart turning records over to ATF and removing more guns

if you or someone you know has recently purchased a gun at Walmart, you might want to watch this short video. he begins at :54


7Nb0Bt8U_Hc

it was a little weirdly synchronistic that i came across this video on the same day i came across this article.

there are about 7 days left in the year ... how many other days this year did i read on gun control or see video on the subject? ---- ZERO

so ... in my world? that means this is important that i communicate ... besides, today? for some odd reason? THIS is what people are talking about!

the video being of primary importance, the article just corroborating piece to bring my focus and attention to the subject

here is the article i found today as well


The year 2020 has been a record one for firearms sales. (John Roark/AP)

American gun sales soar to staggering record high in 2020

Pass the ammo.

While 2020 has been a bummer year for millions of Americans, one significant winner has been firearms.

Still about 60 days until year’s end, U.S. gun sales have hit an all-time national high, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

The previous record for firearm sales occurred in 2016.

The surge, not surprisingly, coincides with the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak in March.

“Everybody went to the grocery stores first to stock up on food, then they went to the gun stores,” Eric Wallace, the owner of the Georgia business Adventure Outdoors explained to CBS MoneyWatch on Tuesday.

Gun sales are expected to boom even more with the ensuing winter holidays as November and December are usually among the most active months of the year for firearm sales, noted the industry trade group.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation states that a staggering 17.2 million background checks were performed in 2020 — nearly 1.5 million more than in 2016.

Firearm purchases have risen every month since March, according to data, and more than 1.7 million background checks were conducted in October alone — nearly a 60% jump over the same period in 2019, notes MoneyWatch.

(SIDE NOTE: Seriously? .. A line? for GUNS? .. and not Black Friday? :sun: )

The group also adds that nearly 5 million Americans bought a firearm for the first time in 2020, pointing to factors that include the pandemic and nationwide protests against police brutality.

“Politically charged calls to defund police also continue to spur sales,” the foundation stated.

Presidential hopeful Joe Bien has proposed tougher gun rules, including the prohibition of assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines, noted MoneyWatch.

“We saw a little bit of a slowdown in April and May, but it has been crazy every month since,” said Wallace. “It’s mostly the civil unrest and the talk on the news about defunding the police. People have decided they need to take action to protect themselves, their families and their homes.”

VISITING "BAD WEBSITES" WILL LOWER YOUR CREDIT SCORE, SAYS IMF

I read the imf blog post, and they say no such thing.

The words "Bad Websites" is not a quote from the IMF as is implied by the quote marks, but this is the framing applied by blacklistednews.com.

Using credit puts you at the mercy of your creditor. If for whatever reason you decide do it, you will be doing it under their terms - and they will use fintech automation to assist with the process of sorting people they want to do business with from people they do not.

The IMF are not saying this will happen either, it *is* happening.

The use of data harvested from consumers of "free stuff" who willingly hand over that data is already pervasive. Institutional creditors will use every inhumane method at their disposal to maximize their profits. Usury being immoral is not a concept they understand - because everyone is doing it, right up to the nation states who project "soft power" this way.

As we move to a more co-operative world, we will see the antidote to this, which is rather simple: don't use institutional creditors.

you made VERY important points Anchor

but they are moving towards a cashless solution, if that takes place? credit itself, as in having or not having, will be less of a factor overall as payment methods themselves WILL be impacted.

a rather important point, i think ... is that in order TO "dock" you for your activity? they need to have KNOWLEDGE OF said activity ... breaches of privacy that are more than intrusive

speaking of THIS subject, one of the worst offenders is Google. First as THE shapers of the official narrative by censoring search results, they own Youtube and they were most definitely a factor in the current election going so far as ELECTION INTERFERENCE .... the Veritas part starts @4:15

i once saw a video where they had a phone that was not connected to a carrier, so (no service). then the phone itself was powered off. so a normal person would make the "reasonable" assumption that the phone was OFF ... as in no, information being transmitted ...

the creators of the video went to a hospital, a park and a library.

when they got back and looked for information available on computer? they were able to track their EVERY move

but it wasn't JUST the places visited

it was HOW many steps they took walking in the park, and how long they sat in the car before they got out to walk.

THAT was mind blowing for me.

they track WHO we are
WHO we communicate with
WHAT we communicate
WHEN we do it
and for how long

then they DOCUMENT this and keep it in storage for later use, if any

if someone told me, let's say an "ex" was doing this?

i would be completely freaked out! ... perhaps consider taking action to protect myself

basically Google knows more about us than:

our mother
our brother
and our lover

put together ..

i, personally, have NO Idea HOW long i sit in the car before i come inside the house

WHY does Google need that info?

that night i sat down to turn off as much of Google related features on my cell phone

it was around midnight

i didn't finish til 5 am

was NOT very happy

and more than a little spooked

and its been going on for a long, long, long time

this article is more than 10 yrs old!

"Google admits collecting Wi-Fi data through Street View cars"

this article by WSJ (unbelievably):


Google Exposed User Data, Feared Repercussions of Disclosing to Public

Google opted not to disclose to users its discovery of a bug that gave outside developers access to private data. It found no evidence of misuse.

read article here:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/google-exposed-user-data-feared-repercussions-of-disclosing-to-public-1539017194

and the questions are WHY do they have the RIGHT to collect this personal data?

and HOW are they going to be held accountable for its breach?

and do we or do we NOT get a say in this?

just a couple of years ago, they had another data breach that exposed more than 52 million people's data ... NONE i bet were aware of the intrusion nor of the exposure. the headline was:


A New Google+ Blunder Exposed Data From 52.5 Million Users

A month after Google had already decided to shut down Google+, a new bug made its problems much, much worse.

"IN OCTOBER, GOOGLE dramatically announced that it would shut down Google+ in August 2019, because the company had discovered through an internal audit (and a simultaneous Wall Street Journal exposé) that a bug in Google+ had exposed 500,000 users' data for about three years. Maybe it should have pulled the plug sooner.

On Monday, Google announced that an additional bug in a Google+ API, part of a November 7 software update, exposed user data from 52.5 million accounts.

Or as Google puts it, "some users were impacted."

luckily, there are now lawsuits against them, but i'm not sure it is the consumers who will benefit and almost certainly our rights and privacy will not be returned or a choice afforded us. we have threads detailing specifics on this forum ...

the "convenience" they afford may in the end, prove to be very, very costly i fear ...

Dozens of states file anti-trust lawsuit against Google (38)

"DENVER (AP) — Dozens of more states are joining an escalating effort to prove Google has been methodically abusing its power as the internet's main gateway in a way that hurts consumers habitually feeding personal information into its search engine and advertisers pouring billions of dollars into its vast marketing network.

The lawsuit was filed Thursday in federal court in Washington by attorneys general of 35 states as well as the District of Columbia and the territories of Guam and Puerto Rico. It seems likely to be combined with a similar complaint by the the U.S. Department of Justice in late October that is also trying to defuse Google's dominance of online search and digital advertising.

“Consumers are denied the benefits of competition, including the possibility of higher quality services and better privacy protections. Advertisers are harmed through lower quality and higher prices that are, in turn, passed along to consumers,” Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser said in announcing the action.

In a blog post, Google's director of economic policy, Adam Cohen, said big companies should be scrutinized, and Google is prepared to answer questions about how it works.

“But this lawsuit seeks to redesign search in ways that would deprive Americans of helpful information and hurt businesses’ ability to connect directly with customers. We look forward to making that case in court, while remaining focused on delivering a high-quality search experience for our users," he said.

The case is the third antitrust salvo to slam Google during the past two months as the U.S. Department of Justice and attorneys general from across the U.S. weigh in with their different variations on how they believe the company is abusing its immense power to do bad things that harm other businesses, innovation and even consumers who find its services to be indispensable.

“There’s not been a cluster of cases of this significance since the 1970s,” said William Kovacic, a law professor at George Washington University and a former chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, pointing to the recent spate of antitrust actions by the states, the Justice Department and the FTC. “This is a big deal.”

The DOJ brought an antitrust suit against AT&T in 1974 that led to its breakup.

In many ways, the flurry of U.S. antitrust suits represent an attempt to catch up with European regulators who have spent the past several years trying to crack down on Google, mostly with huge fines, to little noticeable effect so far.

The latest lawsuit echoes the allegations brought by the federal government. But it goes beyond them by seeking to stop Google from becoming dominant in the latest generation of technology, such as voice-assistant devices and internet-connected cars, as well as claiming that the company discriminates against specialized search providers that provide travel, home repair and entertainment services, and denies access to its search-advertising management tool, SA360, to competitors such as Bing."

Asteroid bigger than the Statue of Liberty will fly
past Earth on Christmas Day, NASA says


https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2020/12/24/14/37227798-9085497-image-a-1_1608819258297.jpg

"An asteroid bigger than the Statue of Liberty will fly past Earth at 8:20pm GMT on Christmas Day, according to data from NASA's Center for Near Earth Studies.

"The asteroid, called 2014 SD224, will come within 0.02019 astronomical units, or nearly 1.9 million miles, from the Earth's surface.

2014 SD224 has a diameter anywhere between 302 and 690 feet (92 to 210 metres) – meaning it could be more than twice the size of the Statue of Liberty (305 feet) or bigger than Salisbury Cathedral (404 feet).

As 2014 SD224 flies past Earth, it will be travelling at a speed of 10 kilometres per second or more than 22,000 miles per hour – roughly 30 times the speed of sound.

Despite being around eight times further out than the Moon,
the asteroid is classed as a near Earth object (NEO) and is being tracked by the space agency."


https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2020/12/24/12/37224580-9085497-image-a-15_1608811728577.jpg

Asteroid 2014 SD224 (also known as 501647) and its trajectory in relation to the orbits of the planets in our Solar System. Earth's orbit is in light blue

Although 2014 SD224 – which can be tracked on NASA's website – is at a distance of 1.9 million miles away, this is relatively close in astronomical terms.

For this reason, 2014 SD224 is defined by NEO, although it's not expected to do damage.

NEOs are an asteroid or comet whose orbit brings it into or through a zone between approximately 91 million and 121 million miles (195 million km) from the Sun, meaning that it can pass within about 30 million miles (50 million km) of Earth’s orbit.

If the object is larger than 460 feet (140 meters) across, it is considered a potentially hazardous object (PHO).

'NEOs are comets and asteroids that have been nudged by the gravitational attraction of nearby planets into orbits that allow them to enter the Earth’s neighbourhood,' said NASA.

'Composed mostly of water ice with embedded dust particles, comets originally formed in the cold outer planetary system while most of the rocky asteroids formed in the warmer inner solar system between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

'The scientific interest in comets and asteroids is due largely to their status as the relatively unchanged remnant debris from the solar system formation process some 4.6 billion years ago.'

According to publicly available NASA data, there have been 24,629 NEOs discovered, as of Tuesday.

It is estimated that there are about 25,000 near-Earth objects (NEOs) larger than 460 feet (140 metres).

And there are also an estimated 1,000 NEOs larger than 3,280 feet (one kilometre), highlighting the need to keep track of these space rocks.


On average, Earth is hit by a football pitch-sized rock every 5,000 years,
and a Civilization-Ending asteroid every one million years,

according to NASA's Near-Earth Object Program."


https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2020/11/19/11/35863752-8965603-image-m-4_1605786022056.jpg

NEOs are an asteroid or comet whose orbit brings it into or through a zone between approximately 91 million and 121 million miles (195 million km) from the Sun, meaning that it can pass within about 30 million miles (50 million km) of Earth’s orbit (stock image)

'By continually searching for asteroids, we expect to eventually find the majority of the hundred-meter-scale asteroids over time, as each happens to pass by our planet many years or decades before a possible potential impact,' Paul Chodas, director at NASA's Center for Near Earth Studies, told Newsweek.

'We have already inventoried over 95 percent of the really large asteroids (1 kilometer or 0.62 miles in size and larger) and we know that none of them has any chance of impacting over the next century.'

The space rock, dubbed '2020 VT4', was only spotted 15 hours after its closest approach by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System on Mauna Loa, Hawaii.

Had it come much closer, the 16 to 33 feet (5 to 10 metre) wide body would have burned up in the atmosphere over the South Pacific.

Its orbit brought it about the same distance from the Earth as the International Space Station, making it the closest asteroid to pass by Earth on record to date."

i'm sorry did everyone catch that? let's go over that once more:

1.) a NEO is an asteroid or comet whose orbit brings it into or through a zone between approximately 91 million and 121 million miles (195 million km) from the Sun, meaning that it can pass within about 30 million miles (50 million km) of Earth’s orbit.


NEO = 30 million miles of Earth’s orbit.

and last Friday the 13th? THIS HAPPENED:




Last month, it was revealed an asteroid the size of a London bus
missed the Earth by just 240 miles (386 km) – on Friday 13th


by just 240 miles

not million miles .. just regular 240


this would have been nice to have had "heads up" about ... i'm thinking ...

it is short but very important communication to our nation ... as would be ANY time our President speaks


d399gk-73J8

start at 1:30 to skip intro. placed here because the news did NOT make it available elsewhere .. so it goes in "news" classification until carried widely

in this speech, he CLEARLY outlines to the American Public what happened giving concrete examples.

my takeaway? he is not giving up and he has no plans on leaving

:shielddeflect:

Actually this was a great discourse. He said one thing towards the end:

"..now is the time, the american people to raise their voices and demand this injustice be immediately corrected.."

basically it is, people get on the streets now with Trump flags and show how many you are.

I think this would give a nice Thread if there is nothing yet.

Employers can bar unvaccinated employees from the workplace, EEOC says

"With the first doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine now being administered in the U.S., the federal government is giving employers around the country the green light to require immunization for most workers.

In general, companies have the legal right to mandate that employees get a COVID-19 shot, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) said Wednesday. More specifically, employers are entitled — and required — to ensure a safe workplace in which "an individual shall not pose a direct threat to the health or safety of individuals in the workplace." That can mean a company requiring its workforce to be vaccinated.

The Americans with Disabilities Act limits an employer's ability to require workers to get a medical examination. But the EEOC's latest guidance clarifies that getting vaccinated does not constitute a medical exam. As a result, ordering employees to get a COVID-19 shot would not violate the ADA.

Not all employees must get vaccinated, according to the agency. Employees with either a disability or "sincerely held" religious beliefs that prevent them from getting inoculated are exempt, according to the EEOC, which is charged with enforcing laws against workplace discrimination.

"If they do require it, an employee can make a request for an accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act or Title VII, and if they do request the accommodation, the employer has an obligation to see if accommodation is possible," said Helen Rella, a workplace attorney at Wilk Auslander, a New York law firm.

In cases like these, an employer must attempt to make a reasonable accommodation for the worker, like allowing them to work from home, for example. If that's not possible, however, and unvaccinated individuals pose a potential threat to either themselves or to others, a company has the right under employment law to exclude them from physically entering the workplace.

Notably, that doesn't mean an employer may summarily fire a worker who declines to be vaccinated. They could be eligible for unpaid leave or other similar entitlements under federal, state and local laws, according to the EEOC.

"At some point, if they are on job-protected unpaid leave, that might rise to the level of undue hardship. But it would be on a case-by-case basis," said Sharon Masling, a workplace attorney at Morgan Lewis in Washington, D.C., and former chief of staff to an EEOC commissioner.

But the agency's guidance does mean that if a worker's job can't be done remotely and there's no reasonable way to accommodate the person's wish not to be vaccinated, then the employer can terminate their employment.

"The logical conclusion is that if no possible accommodation can be made and the employee's job requires that they be in the physical workplace — and they pose a direct threat to the safety of the workplace or others — that yes, they could be terminated," Rella said."

https://www.lipstickalley.com/threads/eeoc-employers-can-mandate-the-covid19-vaccine.4210682/

this will be of increasing importance as soon as the vaccines begin to be widely distributed ... so more on this to follow at relevant time

Not all employees must get vaccinated, according to the agency. Employees with either a disability or "sincerely held" religious beliefs that prevent them from getting inoculated are exempt, according to the EEOC, which is charged with enforcing laws against workplace discrimination.

"If they do require it, an employee can make a request for an accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act or Title VII, and if they do request the accommodation, the employer has an obligation to see if accommodation is possible," said Helen Rella, a workplace attorney at Wilk Auslander, a New York law firm.

In cases like these, an employer must attempt to make a reasonable accommodation for the worker, like allowing them to work from home, for example. If that's not possible, however, and unvaccinated individuals pose a potential threat to either themselves or to others, a company has the right under employment law to exclude them from physically entering the workplace.

Notably, that doesn't mean an employer may summarily fire a worker who declines to be vaccinated. They could be eligible for unpaid leave or other similar entitlements under federal, state and local laws, according to the EEOC.

"At some point, if they are on job-protected unpaid leave, that might rise to the level of undue hardship. But it would be on a case-by-case basis," said Sharon Masling, a workplace attorney at Morgan Lewis in Washington, D.C., and former chief of staff to an EEOC commissioner.

But the agency's guidance does mean that if a worker's job can't be done remotely and there's no reasonable way to accommodate the person's wish not to be vaccinated, then the employer can terminate their employment.

"The logical conclusion is that if no possible accommodation can be made and the employee's job requires that they be in the physical workplace — and they pose a direct threat to the safety of the workplace or others — that yes, they could be terminated," Rella said."

Repair Shop Owner at Center of Hunter Biden Scandal Sues Twitter


https://img.ntd.com/assets/uploads/2020/12/Joe-and-Hunter-Biden-900x506.jpg

The repair shop owner who obtained a laptop computer that appeared to have belonged to Hunter Biden is suing Twitter for defamation, claiming he was unfairly branded a “hacker” by the social media platform’s content moderation policies.

John Paul Mac Isaac, who owned a computer repair shop in Delaware, said weeks earlier that he was forced to close down after death threats in the wake of the laptop saga, released a video challenging the narrative that the computer was hacked.

A New York Post article detailing the contents of the laptop that purportedly belonged to former Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, was initially banned by Twitter. The company cited its hacked materials policy.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey told Congress in October that the company didn’t know if the materials were from a hack. The story “showed the direct materials and screenshots of the materials and it’s unclear how they were obtained.” Dorsey said Twitter’s team made a mistake.

[CENTER]The Mac Store where Hunter Biden's Computer was taken

Isaac is now suing the tech company for defamation in U.S. District Court, claiming in his lawsuit that Twitter decided to “communicate to the world that [Mac Isaac] is a hacker.”

The lawsuit (pdf) (https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.583882/gov.uscourts.flsd.583882.1.0.pdf)alleges that following Twitter’s moderation he was personally threatened, his business received negative reviews and threats, and that he is now “widely considered a hacker.”

Twitter acted with “malicious intent” in claiming that Isaac hacked the laptop that appeared to have belonged to Hunter Biden, the lawsuit states.

The lawsuit seeks a public retraction from Twitter and $500 million in damages.

Isaac said in his video earlier this month that it’s “completely absurd” that he was labeled a Russian agent or under the influence of Russia.

“Another term that I’ve been labeled—which unfortunately is a death sentence in my industry—is ‘hacker.’ For the record, I am not, nor have I ever been, a hacker. Those guys make so much more money than I did. I was hired, and never paid, to perform a data transfer from a MacBook Pro to an external hard drive,” he said.

“The signed paperwork clearly states the process and sets the expectations. There’s no magic or Hollywood; the process is no different than dragging and dropping from a USB drive. The only difference is that I had to perform some surgery on the Mac to get it to boot to the point where I could recover the data. To imply that I’m a hacker and that that information is hacked has had an irreversible impact on my business and my character.”

Hunter Biden is under investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware. Prosecutors have declined to comment, citing Department of Justice policy about not commenting on ongoing investigations.

Twitter didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment by The Epoch Times.

Jeffrey Epstein’s Former Cell Mate Is Dead, With No Further Explanation

National File announced:

Five months after being released from jail for contracting COVID-19, Jeffrey Epstein's former cell mate has died.
by TOM PAPPERT December 28, 2020


https://nationalfile.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/nn_kpa_billionaire_jeff_epstein_arrested_190707_1920x1080.jpg

"Five months after being released from jail due to contracting COVID-19, Efrain “Stone” Reyes, has died. Neither his lawyer nor the Southern District of New York have issued a public comment on his death.
A misleading headline from the New York Daily News indicated that Reyes, who was the last man to share a cell with Jeffrey Epstein before the billionaire pedophile’s alleged suicide, died from complications related to COVID-19. In reality, Reyes’ niece indicated she believed his life was shortened due to COVID-19, but noted that he recovered from the disease in the more than five months since he contracted it.

Reyes’ niece, Angelique Lopez, told New York Daily News, “I can’t say COVID didn’t play a part (in his death). He came back coughing more than normal. His lungs weren’t the same.”

Reyes was released in April and died five months later in September. His death was not reported publicly until today.

According to the press, the Medical Examiner has not determined the cause of Reyes’ death. The New York Daily News notes that “He suffered from heart problems and was diabetic,” but does not claim that he contracted COVID-19 a second time before his death.

According to Lopez, Reyes told her that Epstein was abused by both guards and inmates while incarcerated, and feared reprisal should he report the misbehavior:

More than a year after Epstein allegedly committed suicide while in a New York jail cell, only hours after being removed from suicide watch, the pedophile’s sordid legacy continues to ripple through American politics.

Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime girlfriend and alleged madam, recently admitted to flying on Jeffrey Epstein’s “Lolita Express” airplane with former President Bill Clinton.

‘Gilligan’s Island’ star Dawn Wells Has Transitioned at 82


https://a57.foxnews.com/static.foxnews.com/foxnews.com/content/uploads/2020/11/1862/1048/GettyImages-630846940.jpg?ve=1&tl=1


LA Times reports:

"Actress Dawn Wells, the former beauty queen who became America’s sweetheart by playing the girl-next-door castaway Mary Ann on the TV series “Gilligan’s Island,” has died. She was 82.

Wells died Wednesday of complications from COVID-19, her publicist Harlan Boll said in a statement to The Times. She had been in an assisted-living facility in Los Angeles.

“America’s favorite castaway, Dawn Wells, passed peacefully this morning, in no pain as a result of complications due to Covid,” Boll said.

The Reno native, who competed as Miss Nevada in the 1959 Miss America pageant, became synonymous with the castaway during the CBS sitcom’s run between 1964 and 1967. She also appeared in “77 Sunset Strip,” “Maverick,” “Bonanza,” “The Joey Bishop Show” and “Hawaiian Eye.”

Mary Ann was modeled after Dorothy from “The Wizard of Oz,” a Kansas farm girl with pigtails and gingham dresses. Wells reportedly beat out 350 prospective actress, including Raquel Welch, for the role. CBS paid her $700 a week when she started.


https://www.snopes.com/tachyon/2020/12/dawnwells.jpg

Despite her popularity — and the infamous rivalry with “the movie star” castaway, Ginger (played by Tina Louise, the show’s last surviving cast member) — her character, and the coconut-loving Professor, weren’t mentioned in the series’ catchy theme song until costar Bob Denver (Gilligan) insisted on it.

IMBD's Bio reports:

"Dawn Elberta Wells was born on October 18, 1938 in Reno, Nevada. Her father was a real estate owner and developer and her mother was a homemaker. Wells' childhood was a happy and healthy one. She and her mother grew their own fruits and vegetables in their gardens and Dawn rode horses. In her high school years, she was the class treasurer, President of the debate team and an honor rolls student.

She was Miss Nevada in 1959 and went on to the Miss America Pageant. Dawn originally wanted to be a doctor, so she enrolled in the elite Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri to study medicine, but then she discovered the Drama Club. She then transferred to the University of Washington, which was known for their Theatre Department, and she graduated with a Degree in Theatre.

Dawn moved to Hollywood and got the role of Mary Ann Summers on CBS's Gilligan's Island (1964). The rest is history. However, there was much more to Dawn than her simple Mary Ann character.

Wells refused to be an unemployed actor after the show ended and has never been out of work since the show aired 40 years ago. She has performed in over 66 theatrical productions, including the National Touring Company of "They're Playing Our Song!" She has done countless voice-overs, commercials and talk shows. She worked for the Australian news show "Midday" and interviewed such talents as Julia Roberts, Eddie Murphy and Tom Hanks, to name a few. Dawn has also had great success as a producer and has a number of television movies to her credit. She had a new project in the works for release in 2005.

After years of touring and performing in dramas, comedies, and musical theatre, Dawn finally slowed down a bit. In 1998, she founded the Dawn Wells' Film Actors Boot Camp in Driggs, Idaho. The camp is for the already trained actor looking to make the transition from the amateur to the professional actor. In 2003, Dawn did tours of the plays "Love Letters" with Adam West and Eve Ensler's Award Winning "The Vagina Monologues".

In early 2004, Dawn established and founded The Spud Film Institute in Idaho and Wyoming and will hold the first ever Spud Drive in Film and Music Festival in the summer of 2004. She is also the artistic director of the festival. If that is not enough, Ms. Wells also has her own clothing line for the physically challenged called "Wishing Wells Collections" and she recently launched her own skin care line, Classic Beauty."

She was on THE BOLD and THE BEAUTIFUL

Wells final screen appearances were in a 2018 episode of Kaplan’s Korner, and as a voice actor in the 2019 shortThe Epic Tales of Captain Underpants. She also appeared on the February 18, 2016 episode of Bold & Beautiful. In a news interview at the time, Wells said she was thrilled to have been asked to guest on the CBS soap opera as Alice, a friend of the Forrester family and garment buyer. Wells saw acting on a soap opera as similar to being a stage actress. It was her first, and only appearance on a daytime drama.

Wells’ gingham dress and famous belly button-covering shorts from the series are currently on display in the lobby of the Hollywood Museum, Boll said.

I invited Mary Ann to a Gilligan-themed tiki party — and she showed up

Aug. 22, 2019

“The first thing I did [after ‘Gilligan’] was ‘The Owl and the Pussycat,’ where I played a hooker,” she told The Times. “But it took me two years to get cast in ‘The Vagina Monologues.’ I think they think of you as a film actor who doesn’t do stage, so they don’t know your range.”

“I haven’t done as much film as I’d like. I’d like to play a real nasty person, ’cause you always love Mary Ann, and I’d like to play the opposite of what I do most of the time,” she said. “But I hope I’m working until I drop dead.”

No services are scheduled at this time, and in lieu of flowers, donations are requested to the Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tenn., the Terry Lee Wells Nevada Discovery Museum or the Shambala Preserve.

Actors William Shatner, Jane Lynch and Jon Cryer were among the celebrities mourning the star Wednesday. Here are some of their reactions:

I'm not saying this information in this video is not important, but this is old "news". This video has been floating around for 3 or 4 months, well before the election. The information in it, from whatever source it came, was suppressed by MSM and if it could not be entirely suppressed was labeled fake news and conspiracy nut-job stuff.

I hadn't seen it before, and hadn't heard that proof had been sent to Pelosi, which was interesting.
When the news first hit the internet about Hunter's laptop, for a short time there was a website (originating from China, I believe) that showed actual footage of Hunter smoking a crack pipe, masturbating, being masturbated by a young Asian woman, and ejaculating.
As disgusting as that was, the rest, with pedophilia and other abuses, must be unbelievably revolting.
What a horrible claim to fame! I sure don't envy Hunter in the Bardo plane...

Nancy Pelosi's house vandalized with graffiti and pig's head

Published: Jan 02, 2021, 10.56 AM(IST)


https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.complex.com%2Fcomplex%2Fimages%2Fc_fill%2Cf_auto%2Cg_center%2Cw_1200%2Ffl_lo ssy%2Cpg_1%2Fda6dypue7mphbkn14yn4%2Fnancy-pelosi&f=1&nofb=1

The US Speaker Nancy Pelosi has once again faced the public wrath as someone vandalised her house in San Francisco in the early hours of the new year, local police department confirmed.

San Francisco police department was called to 2640 Broadway in the Pacific Heights neighbourhood after the garage door of the house was spray-painted with hate messages and a pig's head was left on the sidewalk with a layer of (assumably) fake blood on the floor.

The graffiti painted on her white garage door read messages such as 'cancel rent' and 'we want everything' and a struck '$2K'. This is being assumed as a public outrage after Pelosi failed to approve a $2,000 worth coronavirus relief package for the US citizens.

A few hours after the graffiti was reported, the garage door was covered with black-coloured garbage bags, and an investigation was initiated. While the police were immediately called at the house, it is still unclear if Pelosi was inside the house when the incident happened.

This outrage has come after the US citizens received a $600 relief check for coronavirus pandemic, months after they were first sent a $1,200 checks. The amount was highly criticised by the opposition leaders, along with masses who have had to bear the grunt of a collapsing economy.

Pelosi is the only woman to serve as the US Speaker till date. After working with the Trump administration, Pelosi, the Democrat leader, is hoping to be re-elected as the speaker once the Congress resumes operation under the incoming President Joe Biden.

As to whether there’s an ongoing media blackout of the vandalism, that remains unclear. While local outlets have clearly covered the vandalism, as of Saturday major outlets such as CNN and The Washington Post had not.

ever since THEN, the "news" has NOT been reporting "news"

it has been FABRICATING a NARRATIVE that YOU are to obediently be-LIE-ve

and THAT is a FACT

Google ALSO has decided that they WILL no longer give you search results

instead they will ALSO TELL you WHAT to THINK

so if you do a search? you will see that 1.3 million results come up, but YOU may ONLY see 106 of them

and, again, YOU are to OBEDIENTLY comply

if you did NOT know this? THAT is a problem

here is an excerpt of a text i sent my aunt a while back after explaining the above to her:



"therefore, people who STILL watch the news AND use GOOGLE?

should NEVER EVER EVER

be allowed to use the phrase: "I THINK"

because they do NOT (think)

they OBEY

and be-LIE-ve what they are PROGRAMMED, DIRECTED to believe

and THAT is called OBEYING

it is NOT the same thing as THINKING."

i truly hope for ALL of our sakes, that this message reaches many BEFORE it is too late ...

:shielddeflect:

PS so the next time one does a search? they need to ask themselves, "am i doing a search because i would like information? or do i want to be TOLD WHAT to THINK?"

if you wish to be TOLD ... google is for you!

if you would like information? then here are some alternative engines that actually provide search results

Fauci says mandatory COVID-19 vaccines possible for travel, school



https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/01/fauci-vaccine-58.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&w=618&h=410&crop=1

"Dr. Anthony Fauci said it’s possible that COVID-19 vaccines will become mandatory in order to travel to other countries or attend school.

“Everything will be on the table for discussion,” Fauci, who will be chief medical adviser to President-elect Joe Biden, told Newsweek.

The director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases stressed that it’s “not up to me to make a decision,” but added that “these are all things that will be discussed [under the Biden administration].”

this should have about 1/2 of the population, irrespective of political affiliation, in protest

why?

didn't it get CRAMMED down everyone's throat over and over and over:


"MY BODY, MY RIGHT"

i'm pretty sure i heard this repeated from females everywhere ..

so has that changed now?

is the new cry to be:


"MY BODY THEIR RIGHT"?

i hope that people are CLEAR that if someone has the RIGHT to take OUR body

and DO with it AS THEY WILL?

that means WE HAVE a MASTER

let's please not get confused or fuzzy on this issue

either we are FREE and sovereign and OUR body is OUR right?

or we have a MASTER who chooses for OUR body

this isn't even a PRO vaccine vs NO vaccine

this is an issue of CHOICE and FREEDOM

it will be presented differently ... so its important we are very CLEAR

irrespective of how it is "dressed"? NO ONE for any reason,
should EVER have a say over OUR bodies .. NO ONE

so while they have dangled a dozen distractions in front of us?

** UPDATE **

if anyone has an opinion they would like to communicate to their Senators or just to urge them to vote "NO" to the electoral college?

[Eva2]

I've now seen a couple of videos of Fauci and Biden getting these shots (from same nurse) and my first thought was these are probably vitamin (maybe B-12) shots. There is nothing to show or prove that they are receiving vaccines and I have a strong feeling its just a false show.

Sen. Mitch McConnell’s home in Louisville vandalized overnight


https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpbs.twimg.com%2Fmedia%2FD8JQ1unXUAEJYvk.jpg&f=1&nofb=1

Kentucky channel 5 reported:

"By WAVE Staff
Published: Jan. 2, 2021 at 12:44 PM CST|Updated: 1 hour ago
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - The home of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in Louisville was found vandalized Saturday morning.

"Messages were spray painted along the front of his residence in the Highlands, captured in photos from a WAVE 3 News reporter.

The graffiti makes reference to McConnell’s rejection from the Senate on providing $2,000 COVID-19 relief checks, with a message on the front door reading “Were’s (sp) my money”.

Louisville Metro Police said investigation of the incident is underway. At the moment there are no suspects.

McConnell released a statement Saturday afternoon on the vandalism.

“I’ve spent my career fighting for the First Amendment and defending peaceful protest. I appreciate every Kentuckian who has engaged in the democratic process whether they agree with me or not. This is different,” McConnell said. “Vandalism and the politics of fear have no place in our society. My wife and I have never been intimidated by this toxic playbook. We just hope our neighbors in Louisville aren’t too inconvenienced by this radical tantrum.”

Republican Party of Kentucky spokesperson Mike Lonergan also released a statement against the vandalism.

“Vandalism is reprehensible and there’s no place in our politics for acts like this,” Lonergan said. “Kentuckians deserve better and the Democrats should join us in condemning this act of vandalism.”

Kentucky governor Andy Beshear also commented on Saturday’s vandalism on his Twitter page, calling the act “unacceptable.”

article here (https://www.wdtv.com/2021/01/02/sen-mitch-mcconnells-home-in-louisville-vandalized-overnight/)

to Governor Beshear ... i understand that you and our "would be masters" would find our "rebellion" unacceptable

Jeffrey Prather posted this as BOMBSHELL , regarding the China Biden hard drive

https://video.parler.com/qZ/sf/qZsfsKNYESey_small.mp4

Wow...!! this is something...

But could you provide some context to this...who is the Chinese guy speaking, & the lady giving the commentary?

It's difficult to grasp how important this could be without a bit more info to understand who's speaking here & the likely truth of what they're saying...

Dramatic stuff though...again, wow...

the Chinese man is Wang DingGang, an exiled Chinese billionaire. He is the founder of Lude Media whose programs almost exclusively expose the CCP.

his website can be viewed here (https://gnews.org/)

however, many view and refer to him as a con and warn that he is a



CCP spy who entered the US disguised as (a) political dissident. (whose) purpose is to mess up the US and stigmatize Chinese people

tweet here
(https://twitter.com/Libeixi123/status/1298876426746241024)

but that is not the part that is disconcerting ... the part that is disconcerting are his confirmed ties with those who are and have been in President Trump's inner circle.

such as the President's chief counsel, Rudy Giuliani


https://thechaoscat.files.wordpress.com/2020/09/img_5364-1-1.jpg

but this is a VERY interesting picture ... not only does it depict Giuliani with Lude, but in the background appear two central characters in the drama that has currently unfolded before us

one is Steve Bannon. Bannon, one might recall, is former executive chairman of Breitbart News. But the also served as the White House's chief strategist in the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump during the first seven months of the President's term.

Steve Bannon now appears to be partnered with Lude IN Lude Media. This "partnership" has given fodder to videos like the one we saw where Lude makes preposterous assertions that are HIGHLY unlikely to be either accurate OR factual>

in this one, he asserts that Bannon was asked to return to the White House DAILY, but refused until the President made certain concessions ALL of which were to be based on agreement to take the strongest measures against China! Lude asserts that had the President listened to Banon? P Xi Jinping and the CCP would have already been "taken down"

video can be seen here (https://twitter.com/Libeixi123/status/1298876426746241024)

seen ALSO in the picture in the background is Dr. Li-Meng Yan. Dr. Li-Meng Yan is "a scientist who was working at the Hong Kong School of Public Health when she turned whistleblower on the Chinese Government after she alleged they knew about the spread of the coronavirus before publicly acknowledging the outbreak." she turned Whistle Blower and implicated China in the origins of COVID

“This virus is not from nature,” declared Dr. Li-Meng Yan, one of the scientists who conducted the study, during an appearance on a British talk show. She called reports that the virus originated in a Wuhan meat market “a smoke screen” designed to obscure its true origins. (China)

more on Dr. Li here (https://www.sciencetimes.com/articles/27278/20200913/chinese-virologist-claims-proof-covid-19-origins-wuhan-lab.htm)

here she is now front and center with Rudy

the vote for Speaker of the House is going on RIGHT NOW

i don't know HOW i missed this would be happening today?

getting rid of her is definitely right up there with making sure the legally elected president gets the office!!

here is the LIVE FEED

they are calling roll right now


UPDATE

McCarthy is 29

Pelosi 24

and INEXPLICABLY they have stopped taking VOTES!

what is going on????

** UPDATE #2 **

ok ... i called (pretty upset) to ask for an explanation (p: (202) 225-7000)

they are doing it in "sections" because of COVID they are only allowing a certain number at a time

i was upset! I told the lady who answered:

"Tell them WE ARE WATCHING. America is fed up and we are not going to allow FRAUD to continue!! there will be millions of people in Washington to make that point CLEAR ... this just CANNOT continue any longer!"

i know ... i know ... BUT

but the message is NOW or never

you know in weddings when they say:

"speak now or forever hold your peace"?

yep ... its THAT time

this is our lives
our FREEDOM

i will not silently accept FREEDOM being TAKEN from us

i REALLY and truly will NOT stand for it ... and quietly accept it ...

would we even be where we are at if just a little more joined me?

something to strongly consider ... while we still may ...

https://cloverchronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/President-Nancy-Pelosi-2020-2021-Democrat-Takeover.jpg

the New York Post:


Slim margins, COVID-19 absences threaten Nancy Pelosi’s Speaker election

What would ordinarily be a day of celebration Sunday as new representatives flock to the US Capitol for swearing-in has Democrats sweating over the re-election for their leader, Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

With Pelosi’s party holding only 222 seats — and with an unknown number of representatives sidelined by COVID-19 — things may get complicated.

Under House rules, the first order of business for a new Congress is the election of a speaker. Until one person wins an outright majority of representatives who are present for the vote, no other business can be done.

But the Democrats’ new caucus gives Pelosi little room to maneuver — with only five votes more than the 217 she would need to win a new term as speaker.

And that’s if everyone shows up for the vote. At least two Democrats, Reps. Gwen Moore (D-Wis.) and Rick Larsen (D-Wash.), have tested positive for the coronavirus since Dec. 23 — and under CDC guidelines should remain in quarantine.

And up to a dozen Democrats have promised their constituents not to support Pelosi for another turn in the powerful role. Ten of the 15 moderates who voted against her in 2019 are returning to Congress for new terms, and several — including Reps. Conor Lamb (D-Pa.), Jared Golden (D-Maine) and Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) — have pledged to oppose her.

article here (https://nypost.com/2021/01/02/nancy-pelosis-speaker-election-threatened-by-covid-19-absences/)

ok ... session 6 of voting has just completed

at every point McCarthy has been in the lead sometimes by a margin of as many as 20 votes!

right now it is:

Pelosi ~ 187

McCarthy ~ 189

of note is that McCarthy has lost NO votes

of Democrats, 2 dissented and voted other

3 voted present

they had a Democrat who TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID come in ...

we need loads of calls on this ....

if you are reading this? please intend/pray/focus on the END of Fraud

the END of being deceived and manipulation! The crumbling of the structures that have upheld it and let it serve to mitigate the fraud and deception wants to come in and govern our FREEDOM and our LIVES

its time
:flower:

LIVE BROADCAST here (https://www.c-span.org/video/?507549-1/opening-day-117th-congress-us-house-representatives)

about to begin last round of voting ... and then? c'est toute

** UPDATE **

the original roll call ended and count was

Mc Carthy 194

Pelosi 189

and now, inexplicably they are giving the ones who did not answer the first time, a chance to answer and VOTE now ...

we must hold fast to TRUTH prevailing

Pelosi 216 McCarthy 208

that seems to be it, but they haven't called it for her ...

i thought someone needed 217 just one more ...:(

**

** LAST UPDATE **

sadly, i announce:


Pelosi has been declared Speaker of the House of the 117th Congress

there will be 222 Democrats

and 211 Republicans

a seat left open by Jeff Letlow of LA who recently passed away

interestingly enough by sentiments are the majority in this country polls show:



Fifty-six percent of voters think Pelosi
should not be reelected as speaker. Only 31 percent of voters support her.

but as has been the case as of late? what the majority of Americans want is being disregarded :(

they are about to swear her in ... turning it off now

Not now. Both parties have learned, through Trump and Sander's base that they MUST change, start to represent working Americans. The democrats abandoned their base, just as surely as corporations abandoned the rust belt. It's out of that rubble that new leaders will arise. Leaders, not politicians.

It will all change, Gracy, imho. The whole rotting mess will be forever changed. It will be an international movement against the 1% and it is going to gain more and more traction in the next few years.

The libertarian left and the libertarian right wing, have to get together and not let the elite media, nor divisive social media deflect from what should be a shared vision. No thinking person wants communism, or fascism -- and unfortunately these are the two false choices that the elites offer up to us.

you know ... i watched the whole thing LIVE .. and it would be a LOT easier to say:

"no, it was all on the up and up BUT ...

1.) the lady taking the roll call in red? OFTEN DID "look" nervous

her body language did not communicate impeccability in spirit nor in action

TRUTH was not forthcoming

2.) the PROCEDURE itself, was unorthodox and i'm certain that in the HISTORY of this procedure has NEVER before, nor likely EVER WILL again, be conducted in such manner ...

sections ~ where only a few in and 80% of the others "being talked" to i'm certain
AND giving much more time for others to show up

3.) they finished ... with McCarthy in the lead ... he had won

and THEN they started again, going back and giving the ones who had not voted in the first round a second opportunity.

i'm going to have to do research to find out if this has been done in the past? or only because Pelosi was losing

4.) in the "break" between sessions ... the commentator said and i quote:

in regards to Pelosi being behind throughout the ENTIRE procedure ...



"but that is ONLY because they are going in alphabetical order ..
otherwise Pelosi would be ahead'

that sounds neither neutral, objective nor impartial

and ... HOW did she KNOW this? ...

seven of seven sessions McCarthy led!!

5.) they said she NEEDED 217 votes 5 Democrats did NOT vote for her, either through absence or abstaining or for another and she ONLY got 216

though it was more than McCarthy? they did NOT immediately declare her the winner ...

which leads me to wonder if without the FULL 217 votes, she is INDEED the winner?

and lastly,

6.) this gem ... this just speaks for itself ...

Iota, I was just saying that tounge and cheek , but I wasn't kidding about not voting again, and I'm not the only one. I have many successful friends of mine who donate money to political campaigns who are saying the exact same thing.if this doesn't get corrected with the voting, there is no reason to vote anymore when it can be manipulated electronically and physically. And really the icing on the cake was this so called covid bill of 6000 pages and not giving support to those that really need it. That 600.00 was an absolute joke . It was kind of like Congress and the senate smacking the American people on the head with a rolled up newspaper saying shut up stupid , we know way better than you will ever know which couldn't be farther from the truth. Passing that bill 6000 pages long and giving millions where their was no rational explanation to do so just solidified we the American people don't mean squat to them anymore and the system is completely dysfunctional now. I pray every night for our country.

i totally get what you are saying .. many agree ...

and for all appearances sake? the situation has no intention of cleaning itself up without proper motivation

the only "proper" motivation i know of is when man gets determined and will accept NO OTHER OUTCOME

as long as this election is being perceived as merely between two opposing parties or ideologies, therein will lie justification to close one's eyes and attempt to "adjust" to the "new normal" and do our best to incorporate the increasingly intrusive DEMANDS that WILL be made of us

here is what was included in the 6000 page bill:

a video that gave a complete breakdown of the Bill that was passed was censored the very day i posted. (i honestly never thought i'd live to see the day an AMERICAN would be ok with having FREE Speech censored!)

$7 million for Reef Management

$25 million to combat Asian Carp

$2.5 million to count the number of Amberjack fish in the gulf

$3 million to Poultry Production Technology

$2 million to research the impact of downed trees

$566 million to FBI Construction projects

$10 million to Gender Programs in Pakistan

and i wondered WHY?

then i saw this:


https://nation.com.pk/digital_images/large/2019-07-24/pm-imran-khan-meets-us-house-speaker-nancy-pelosi-1563950531-6208.jpg

WHY would Pakistan be meeting with the Speaker of the House? and then later we find that said Speaker is the same elected official who endorsed giving them $10 million for "gender programs" something so ambiguous as to defy definition and easily find assimilation that will be suitable to achieve their nefarious agenda

the same one since the beginning of time ~ greed ... money ... it will find its way "kicked back" to her ...

it is what happened in Georgia .. the governor asked for $10 million for "masks" and COVID "supplies" ... that $10 million went to CHINA

Georgia NEVER received masks or any other supply as late as of November 3 the date of our election ...

the money is said to have ended up in accounts of governor's relatives and certain to find their way back to the governor


45677

they've got a pretty good "gig" going and i don't think they are going to stop of their own volition

they have played ALL of their cards and they are NOT going to suddenly have a change of heart and say:

"my bad"
"mea culpa"
"sorry about that"
"No hard feelings, let's just let it go, ok?"

this is WIN or DIE

for BOTH sides

thank you so much for praying ... i am as well :heart:

"The final five episodes that Alex Trebek taped as the beloved longtime host of “Jeopardy!” will air starting Monday.

Trebek, who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer in November, will be honored during the showing of his final episode Friday with “a special tribute to the life and work of the man who captained America’s Favorite Quiz Show with skill, style, and sophistication for 36+ years,” according to a statement from “Jeopardy!” producer Sony Pictures Television.

Trebek’s final episodes were originally slated to air during the week of Christmas, but producers pushed the showtimes back because they said the holidays might be too chaotic for viewers to tune in.

The Canadian-American game-show host announced his cancer diagnosis in March 2019 but powered through to tape episodes for the 2020-21 season before passing away at the age of 80.

Producers say he did not know that what ended up being his final show would in fact be his last.

“Jeopardy!” will continue airing new episodes starting Jan. 11 with guest host and $4,370,700 lifetime show winner Ken Jennings at the helm.

The show has not named a new permanent host to replace Trebek, but bookmakers are already taking bets on his successor, with Jennings, George Stephanopoulos, LeVar Burton, Neil deGrasse Tyson and Pat Sajak among the frontrunners."

Actress Tanya Roberts, ‘That ‘70s Show’ star, dead at 65


https://pagesix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2021/01/tanya-roberts-1.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&w=618&h=410&crop=1

Actress and model Tanya Roberts — known for her role as Midge in “That ’70s Show” — reportedly died on Sunday. She was 65.

Roberts had been hospitalized since she collapsed in her California home on Christmas Eve after walking her dogs, her rep, Mike Pingel, told The Hollywood Reporter.

“I’m devastated. She was brilliant and beautiful and I feel like a light has been taken away,” Pingel told the outlet.

“She was the sweetest person you’d ever meet and had a huge heart,” he said.

Her cause of death was not immediately clear.

Other than her popular sitcom role as Donna Pinciotti’s mom, Roberts was also well-known for playing a Bond girl in the 1985 007 flick “A View to Kill.”

Roberts posed for Playboy, TMZ reported, and appeared in a handful of commercials.

She leaves behind her current husband, Lance O’Brien, and sister, Barbara Chase, the reports said.

Roberts had been married to actor Barry Roberts, who died at the age of 60 in 2006

BREAKING NOW

the extradition nightmare has ENDED .. . CONFIRMED multiple sources:

https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/c3e1f41cd653d92db76a022ab587f13a871542ea/0_63_2191_1315/master/2191.jpg?width=445&quality=45&auto=format&fit=max&dpr=2&

The Guardian:


Julian ASSANGE is FREE of that awaiting bail

Julian Assange extradition ruling: what happens now?
Decision is another milestone in 10-year fight but focus now shifts to US appeal

Monday’s ruling is not the end of a decade-long struggle by Julian Assange against extradition to the US – but it heralds the beginning of the end.

Over recent weeks, supporters and those close to the WikiLeaks founder had lobbied and pinned some hopes on Donald Trump granting him a pardon in the final days of his time in the White House, but no Christmas reprieve came via the US president’s Twitter account or elsewhere.

After the ruling at the Old Bailey by district judge Vanessa Baraitser that Assange cannot be extradited from the UK, the focus now shifts to a US appeal, for which leave is expected to be granted in a few weeks time.

After the appeal to the high court, the case could technically go to the supreme court though British legal experts caution that a specific legal point would have to arise for the latter to become involved.

Another option further down the line, for Assange’s defenders rather than lawyers for the US, would be the European court of human rights.

In the event of legal rulings continuing to go his way, he will ultimately be discharged from prison, although the long arm of the US would limit his travel prospects beyond the UK for the rest of his life.

Yet more scenarios – based on more than a few hypotheticals and a disconnect with how the British legal system works – meanwhile continue to hover into view. Mexico’s populist president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, told reporters at his daily press conference that he would ask foreign ministry officials to approach their UK counterparts about “the possibility of Mr Assange being freed” so he could accept a Mexican offer of asylum.

Actress Tanya Roberts Is Still Alive, According to Her Publicist



https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ie-commerce.net%2Flibrary%2F2436_850%2F284%2F284996.jpg&f=1&nofb=1

Tanya Robert's Head Shot for Charlie's Angels

Actress Tanya Roberts, who was reported by CNN and other media outlets to have died, citing her longtime publicist, Mike Pingel, is still alive, Pingel told CNN Monday.

Pingel said he was notified Sunday evening by Roberts’ longtime partner, Lance O’Brien, that Roberts had died.

In a phone call Monday evening, O’Brien told CNN he was distraught after saying goodbye to Roberts at her bedside and left Cedars-Sinai Medical Center believing it would be the last time he saw her.

On Monday morning, O’Brien was notified by the hospital that Roberts is still alive, according to Pingel and O’Brien. They said it was a coincidence that O’Brien was doing an interview with Inside Edition when the hospital called.

“I’m so happy,” O’Brien told Inside Edition when he got the call.

Roberts was hospitalized in Los Angeles on Dec. 24, after she collapsed at her California home following a walk with her dogs. She remains in critical condition, according to Pingel and O’Brien.

Roberts’ career in television and film spans more than 30 years.

She played geologist Stacey Sutton in ‘A View to a Kill,’ opposite Roger Moore and appeared in “That 70s Show” as Donna Pinciotti’s mother.

Hope Fades in Norway Landslide That Left 7 Dead; 3 Missing


https://img.ntd.com/assets/uploads/2021/01/Landslide-in-Norway-killed-7-2021-01-04-900x506.jpg

COPENHAGEN, Denmark—Norwegian officials insisted Monday that there was “still hope” of finding survivors in air pockets five days after a landslide killed at least seven people as it carried away homes in a village north of the capital. Three people are still missing.

Police spokesman Roger Pettersen said search efforts in the landslide-hit village of Ask, 25 kilometers (16 miles) northeast of Oslo, are still considered “a rescue operation.” But only bodies have been found in the past few days.

The region’s below-freezing temperatures are “working against us, but we have been very clear in our advice to the (rescuers) that as long as there are cavities where the missing may have stayed, it is possible to survive,” said Dr. Halvard Stave, who is taking part in the rescue operation.

Temperatures in Ask were minus 8 degrees Celsius (17.6 degrees Fahrenheit) on Monday.

“I would still describe the situation as very unreal,” said Anders Oestensen, the mayor of Gjerdrum municipality, where Ask is located.

Authorities said one victim was found Friday, three more on Saturday and three others Sunday. Ten people have been injured, one of them seriously.

Search teams patrolled with dogs as helicopters and drones with heat-detecting cameras flew over the ravaged hillside in Ask, a village of 5,000 that was hit by the worst landslide in modern Norwegian history. At least 1,000 people were evacuated.

The landslide early Wednesday cut across a road through Ask, leaving a deep, crater-like ravine. Some buildings are now hanging on the edge of the ravine, which grew to be 700 meters (2,300 feet) long and 300 meters (1,000 feet) wide. At least nine buildings with over 30 apartments were destroyed.

“This is completely terrible,” King Harald V said after the Norwegian royals visited the landslide site on Sunday.

The limited number of daylight hours in Norway at this time of year and fears of further erosion have hampered rescue operations. The ground is fragile at the site and unable to hold the weight of heavy rescue equipment.

The exact cause of the accident is not yet known but the area is known for having a lot of quick clay, a material that can change from solid to liquid form. Experts said the quick clay, combined with excessive precipitation and damp winter weather, may have contributed to the landslide.

In 2005, Norwegian authorities warned people not to construct residential buildings in the area, saying it was “a high risk zone” for landslides, but houses were eventually built there later in the decade.

Norway’s biggest landslide was in 1893 in Verdal, north of Trondheim in mid-Norway and killed 116 people, the VG newspaper reported. It was reportedly up to 40 times bigger that the one in Ask where somewhere between 1.4 million and 2 million cubic meters of land tumbled down.

Apple Pay and other Apple Products
may be affected by this E.O. just signed by President Trump

Presidential EO Addressing the Threat Posed By Applications and
Other Software Developed or Controlled By Chinese Companies

see actual wording of EO in this post here:

https://canadafreepress.com/images/uploads/kincaid040920.jpg

recall that:

"Microsoft is the first commercial software company that provides the Chinese government with access to its source code. In February this year, during the visit of Microsoft chairman and chief software architect Bill Gates to China, CNITSET, representing the Chinese government, and Microsoft signed the GSP Source Code Agreement."

and

"Tim Chen, vice president of Microsoft and CEO of Microsoft Greater China, said: “The opening of CNITSEC Source Code Review Lab is a significant step in fulfilling Microsoft’s long-term commitment in China. To create a trustworthy computing environment is the goal of Microsoft. Microsoft is willing to cooperate with the Chinese government and its authorized parties and share Microsoft’s accumulated experience in software and security development.”

source: https://news.microsoft.com/2003/09/26/china-information-technology-security-certification-center-source-code-review-lab-opened/

the Canada Free Press wrote earlier:

"it is necessary to document Gates’ sympathy for—and ties to—China. It’s significant that, in regard to the coronavirus and the response, Chinese dictator Xi has sent Gates a letter thanking him for his financial support for China. In 2017 Gates was given one of China’s highest academic honors.

Gates was on Fox News Sunday and CNBC, and writing for the Post, because money talks. He buys influence and advisers. For that reason, we also have to pay attention to him. He doesn’t mind his own business and concentrate on ways to improve software products. Instead, he makes our lives and business his business.

What is he saying, exactly, about the nature of the coronavirus and where it came from? And what is he NOT saying? The answers display a disturbing pro-China bias on Gates’ part. "

and

"With Gates now assuming an adversary posture on the matter of opening up the U.S. economy, President Trump must keep in mind Gates’ ties to China as his administration makes decisions in the critical days ahead.

For that matter, Trump must also understand that Dr. Anthony Fauci once signed a “Memorandum of Understanding” with the Chinese- front World Health Organization, pledging cooperation. This helps account for the slow response to the virus from the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control. "

but THIS just takes the cake:

Bill Gates is inducted into the Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE),
one of the country’s top academic institutions.

Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates and nine other American “foreign experts” in engineering and technology have been elected as new members of the Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE). This might seem an odd fit for uber-capitalist Gates, since the CAE is the People’s Republic of China’s elite society of technology professionals who have proven their service to the Communist Party of China, (CPC) and the Communist State. But like many other super-wealthy westerners, Gates has shown himself sympatico to authoritarian and totalitarian regimes.

Together with:
David Rockefeller,
George Soros,
Ted Turner,
Warren Buffet,

and a small clutch of additional billionaires, Gates formed a cabal they dubbed “The Good Club,” which seems to be fixated on population control. Its members are uncomfortably comfortable with China’s coercive (and murderous) One Child policy as an answer to population “problems.”

China’s People’s Daily reported on November 27 that “Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft and chairman of TerraPower, has been elected as a foreign member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE), one of the country’s top academic institutions.”

Apple Products are likely to be affected ... Gates has a very long, established and well documented history to China ...

also likely to be affected are games as many include transactions and are based in China such as gamers who play Epic Games, they have a large stakeholder in Tencent. if transactions become unavailable it is likely to affect the game Fortnite .

Tencent releases 'Fortnite' in China and invests millions in the game.
by Kai Wong (article)

""Fortnite" has undoubtedly become one of the most popular and most viewed games in America, and has expanded to mobile phones. Ever since "Fortnite" was released, Epic Games has introduced many new items and weapons to the game and made the game even more popular. Other countries have not been able to have "Fortnite" released in their own country, but it won't take long before the game expands worldwide. According to South china Morning Post, "Fornite" has been released in China with the help of Tencent."

and that there was "zero evidence to support that ANY fraud took place. that this is simply a stunning turn of events on something that was supposed to be a "routine" procedural meeting'

and that now Pelosi was calling in the National Guard"

that Pence has just tweeted that

"this attack on our capital will NOT be tolerated
and that they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law"

and the newscaster has followed by saying that Pence's statement has more value than that of the President

You have got to be kidding. Peaceful protest is peaceful protest and Constitutionally protected. Storming the Capitol building is not, nor is putting an IED down in the Capitol building, nor planting an explosive device at RNC headquarters. Those are minimum attempted mass casualty terrorism, and at a maximum sedition and treason.

No, I am not "low information". I'm an American, these people are traitors.

and that there is NO vested interest in setting the stage for Trump supporters,
who are generally KNOWN to be law abiding citizens as "destructive"?

ever since THEN, the "news" has NOT been reporting "news"

it has been FABRICATING a NARRATIVE that YOU are to obediently be-LIE-ve

and THAT is a FACT

Google ALSO has decided that they WILL no longer give you search results

instead they will ALSO TELL you WHAT to THINK

so if you do a search? you will see that 1.3 million results come up, but YOU may ONLY see 106 of them

and, again, YOU are to OBEDIENTLY comply

if you did NOT know this? THAT is a problem

here is an excerpt of a text i sent my aunt a while back after explaining the above to her:



"therefore, people who STILL watch the news AND use GOOGLE?

should NEVER EVER EVER

be allowed to use the phrase: "I THINK"

because they do NOT (think)

they OBEY

and be-LIE-ve what they are PROGRAMMED, DIRECTED to believe

and THAT is called OBEYING

it is NOT the same thing as THINKING."

i truly hope for ALL of our sakes, that this message reaches many BEFORE it is too late ...

:shielddeflect:

PS so the next time one does a search? they need to ask themselves, "am i doing a search because i would like information? or do i want to be TOLD WHAT to THINK?"

if you wish to be TOLD ... google is for you!

if you would like information? then here are some alternative engines that actually provide search results

Two pieces of footage I saw yesterday evening and today afternoon make the idea that these were somehow peaceful protesters with no ill intent: Last night there was a picture of the people gathering, above it was a white flag with a red blood drop cross which is KKK. Then today when they were showing the people breaking in, there was a guy with a wrecking bar going at the doors. What peaceful protester brings a wrecking bar to a protest? Then there was an open mike form one of the protesters at the corner of the steps, there for about an hour this afternoon. As they were leaving they promised to come back armed.

The FBI is reporting disarming two explosive devices in the building. Is that peaceful? The peaceful protester garbage is QAnon BS, not reality.

[pyrangello]

I was just thinking of the story of the 4 white buses being escorted in yesterday with a police escort. It was on Hal turners site, sorrydont have the link. But consider this regarding all the trump supporting Americans. Let's rewind this entire year of trump rallies. (While Joe Biden was no where). Presidents trumps rallies were drawing between 5000 to 55000 Americans per rally. There wasn't any issues, there wasn't any damages to property, there weren't any violence . I know several of my friends went to the rallies, everyone had the same experience, patriotism, positive energy , proud to be an American , prosperity for all, and can't wait for another 4 years of being in the great USA.

Flip that to the riots of Antifa who Biden said was just an idea, the occupation of the summer of love in Seattle 10 city blocks, the destruction of 1000 building in Minnesota, and who knows how much damage in new York.

Speculating my money is on all those crashing the capitol were not trump supporters but were planted there as they were let in by the police as well in a prior video. All my friends who are trump supporters are hard working tax paying Americans, many business owners as well. And all who wanted to see America great again which was exactly happening prior to the covid agenda the dems and media pushed to the heavens. I REFUSE TO LET A FEW HOURS TARNISH A YEARS WORTH OF RALLIES OF TRUE AMERICANS THAT WOULD HELP YOU AT ANYTIME and I believe this was staged.

I couldn't agree more. It's a no-brainer that anti-Trump provocateurs will attend the rallies in order to create scenes of violence in a way that it looks like Trump supporters are behind it. And the media will be pushing the exact same agenda. Seriously, one would have to be be brain dead not to recognize this pattern these days.

The deep state used an old op, called a false flag. They created the violence and then blame it on protesters. The real valid reason they are there, their sheer numbers all goes out the window. The focus now is those crazed Neo Nazi Trump supporters. Its pretty easy to for Antifa to put on a Q shirt. Welcome to Avalon, you will learn a lot here, especially discernment.

it can be seen here:

at the moment ... they are voting ON the objection to PA's electoral votes ..

passionate arguments were made and may now be seen ...

they tried to carry it with an oral vote of yea or nay ... and Nancy Pelosi immediately said the "nay's" had it ...

so a recorded vote was requested

i was happy until Pelosi told them to record it on their electronic devices

forgive me if i no longer trust that system

:shielddeflect:

UPDATE

Senate voted 93 to 7 to over ride the objection to PA's electoral votes

UPDATE 2

the commentator just said there are 12 remaining states whose votes must be certified and there doesn't seem to be any more that will be contested with the exception of Wisconsin, but no Senator has signed off on that ...

and to hold debate and formally contest a state's vote? it must be in writing and have both a House Representative and a Senator

the Senate and VP have just entered and their first course of action is that both the House and Senate have rejected the objection to PA's electoral college and therefore they were given to Biden

its pretty much over ...

all the rest will be accepted as they were certified by their SoS

China has bought America

A suggestion only, not a missive in any way :flower:

Instead of burying these critical unfolding stories on this thread where they are likely to be harder to find, and then inevitably duplicated elsewhere, that consideration please be given to placing US election fallout material in appropriate threads, at the point that they may appear, and for some discernment be exercised on their value and content.

It will really help an already stretched moderator team immeasurably if we could please start to practice that, and starting right now. Things have now sadly hotted up as we anticipated they might and help that any of you can provide here would be greatly appreciated; we may be in danger of getting swamped here backstage - thank you.

Meanwhile, in another part of the world: (found on the D.I. website) No mention of it here in the German media and I guess under-reported in other countries as well, I did find several news reports about in on youtube, from various TV stations from different parts of the world, but they don't seem to show just how many Indian people and unions actually support this strike because they understand those 3 bills only look beneficial at first glance.



"Censored: The largest people’s uprising in history against the globalist takeover of food

“The India Farmer’s Protest should be making worldwide headlines. But it isn’t. Because everyone would be encouraged to imitate their courage” Dr Julianne Romanello

Not my words. But the sentiment perfectly encapsulated.

National and international media have been heavily censoring what is now being known as the largest peaceful protest in the history of humanity, which took place on November 26, 2020 in India. A staggering 250,000,000 people from various industry sectors stood together in a united workers strike, approximately 20% of India’s population. To put that figure into perspective, that’s almost four times the population of the U.K. and 75% of the U.S. population.

The strike action was in response to the nefarious farm bills surreptitiously passed on 23 September 2020, without debate, during India’s brutal lockdown, in an attempt to pressure the Modi government to repeal the bills. The superficially benevolent bills threaten domestic and global food sovereignty, the livelihood of farmers and accelerate the globalist takeover of the food supply, inextricably linked with Agenda 21 and Sustainable Development Goals.

The one-day stand-off has snowballed into what is now the largest people’s uprising ever seen on our planet. Massive ‘insta-city’ encampments have formed at Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur borders into Delhi, the main protest sites, with an estimated 345,000 farmers and protesters currently encamped – eating, sleeping, washing, praying – in what is now the winter season with evening temperatures dipping to around 0 degrees. With roads and highways completely blocked going into the capital, farmers and cross-industry sector protesters are standing in absolute unity and solidarity, from teachers unions to lawyers unions, Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims alike, fighting for their lives and their livelihood. And it’s growing. Thousands more, each day, from all over India, march towards the capital, in solidarity with the Farmers Protests to force the Indian PM to repeal these nefarious Acts. The farmers have vowed to stay for as long as it takes for the laws to be repealed, several months, even years. Forty have lost their lives so far, including counts of suicide."


I did a little digging into those farm bills and found this in the Times of India:

UPDATE: Very informative video, explains the situation of farmers very well, no wonder they are on strike blocking several of the main roads to Delhi:

Variety reports here (https://variety.com/2021/politics/news/china-state-media-crows-over-trump-riot-1234880460/#!):

"Official Chinese state media had a field day Thursday with the invasion of the U.S. capitol by armed supporters of Donald Trump. It called the incident “a beautiful sight” and used it as a chance to advance Beijing’s narrative on Hong Kong and promote China’s system of governance.

State outlets and even the country’s foreign ministry spokeswoman focused in particular on comparing Wednesday’s Washington, D.C. riot to a 2019 incident when Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters occupied the city’s seat of power, the Legislative Council.

That incident happened in June 2019, just days after an estimated two million Hong Kong residents took to the streets for a peaceful antigovernment protest. Nancy Pelosi called the movement a “beautiful sight to behold.”

the Indian Express also reported:

"Several social media users in China also responded to Thursday’s incident, calling it “karma”, “retribution” and “deserving”, reported Global Times. Social media in the country is heavily censored.'

BUT .... what was little more than a 'blip'

of rather notable BREAKING NEWS of import was:



On Wednesday, hours before the MAGA crowd stormed the White House, Hong Kong police swooped on 53 pro-democracy activists — including an American lawyer — who oppose Beijing’s increasing stranglehold on the semi-autonomous region. The mass arrests have been widely condemned by rights activists and leaders worldwide.

ANY time our attention is being directed 'OVER HERE'?

chances are there is something else going on ... 'OVER THERE' that we are NOT to notice

in this case CHINA ARRESTED FIFTY THREE PRO Democracy activists!!

John Clancey, the chairman of the Asian Human Rights Commission, detained on day that saw dozens of pro-democracy activists arrested

"Hong Kong >> Hong Kong police on Wednesday arrested 53 former legislators and democracy supporters for violating the new national security law by participating in informal election primaries for the region’s legislature.


(January 6th they KNEW the world's attention would be in the U.S. and could hide)

The mass arrests, including those of former lawmakers, were the biggest move against Hong Kong’s democracy movement since legislation was enacted by Beijing last June to spread dissent in the semi-autonomous region.

<snip>

All pro-democracy candidates were arrested in informal primaries, according to the South China Morning Post, online platform Now News, and a prolonged period of arrest reported by political groups.

At least seven members of Hong Kong’s Democratic Party – the city’s largest opposition party – were arrested, including former party president Wu Chi-wai. Former lawgivers Lam, Helena Wong and James Two were also arrested, according to posts on the party’s Facebook page.

According to reports, Hong Kong’s 2014 Occupy Central protests and a former law professor, Benny Tai, were also arrested. Tai was one of the main organizers of the primary.

The house of pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong, who was serving a 13 1/2-month prison sentence for participating and participating in an unauthorized protest last year, was also raided, posted from Wong’s account According to a tweet.

US human rights lawyer John Clancy was also arrested on Wednesday. Clancy was the treasurer of the political group Power for Democracy, which was involved in informal primaries.

In a video posted by local online news outlet Citizen News, Clancy said that we need to work for democracy and human rights in Hong Kong"

The Guardian gave greater detail on American Attorney:

'Hong Kong police have arrested an American lawyer under the city’s national security law, according to multiple sources, hours after authorities arrested dozens of pro-democracy activists as part of a sweeping crackdown.

John Clancey, the chairman of the Asian Human Rights Commission and a member of a group linked to pro-democracy protesters, was arrested when police raided the law firm Ho, Tse, Wai & Partners, a source at his law firm told Reuters.

Hong Kong broadcaster RTHK also reported Clancey had been arrested and that the offices were being searched by police.

Hong Kong police did not respond to a request for comment.

Dozens of Hong Kong pro-democracy figures arrested in sweeping crackdown


(my note ~ NOT "dozens" ~ FIFTY THREE were arrested)


Clancey is the treasurer of Power for Democracy, which was involved in an unofficial, independently organized vote in July 2020 to select opposition candidates for a since-postponed legislative election."

** UPDATED **

to bring CLARITY to this issue,

CHINA has NO citizens .. i say this, because "citizenship" implies RIGHTS

Chinese SUBJECTS have ONE right

the RIGHT to obey

democracy has CRAZY ideas, such as human beings having CHOICE

this flies against STATED ideology, purpose, intent, focus and laws

therefore ALL proponents of democracy were arrested, on Jan 6th when the WORLD would be "looking the other way ~ in the direction of the U.S."

WHY does this matter?

in 2017, China passed a new "Intelligence LAW" which compels ALL of its subjects to "gather Intel" at home or abroad

this means SPY

at home or abroad, NO exceptions and serious penalties for failure to comply

so when you see your local, state or national elected official and the nice Chinese person constantly around?

please notify them

THEY ARE SPIES

its actually too late, the law passed FOUR years ago, MOST of our officials falling under these circumstances have ALREADY been compromised (bought)

a LOT of information that is now pretty much ESSENTIAL knowledge can be read here

WHAT does this mean?

1.) it means WE failed to do our job which was to WATCH this and DO something about it when there was still time

2.) it means that whatever else it was that we were doing besides making sure that our public servants were serving US instead of a foreign country WITH a dictator?

will be an activity we will likely NOT get to have in the future

because the commodity that China BOUGHT?

was OUR FREEDOM

see what happens when we LOOK the other way?

OR we "look" and sigh and turn our attention to other matters

and DO NOT call ~ EVERYBODY

as in the elected official, our church, our golf club, our Christian women's club, our bridge club, PTA and CONTINUE to call

then getting EVERYONE of them to call the elected official, FCC, governors, state reps city council etc

WSJ reports:

JPMorgan and Citigroup to halt all PAC donations; Blue Cross and Marriott pause funding to Republicans who objected to Electoral College results

Two of the biggest U.S. banks and other corporations said they are pausing or reviewing their political action committee donations in the wake of last week’s riot at the Capitol.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Citigroup Inc. said they are pausing all PAC donations to Republicans and Democrats in the coming months. Other companies, including the https://www.wsj.com/articles/capitol-riot-prompts-some-big-banks-and-companies-to-pause-political-funding-11610315288, said they would pause donations to Republican lawmakers who objected to President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College win after supporters of President Trump stormed the Capitol on Wednesday.

The actions follow a week in which businesses and their chief executives have sought ways to ensure a peaceful transition of power, with some calling for Mr. Trump’s removal from office by invoking the 25th amendment or impeachment. Others say they are holding back on such action as they await Mr. Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 20.

‘Absolute silence’: Journalists asked to sign confidentiality agreement over report into child abuse by German Catholic Church

Journalists in the German city of Cologne have walked out of a press conference after Catholic Church officials asked them to sign a confidentiality agreement pledging their silence over an unpublished report into child abuse.

The Archdiocese of Cologne organized the event to discuss the methodology of the report, which Archbishop Rainer Maria Woelki said was the reason it had still not been released to the public, according to Deutsche Welle.

The eight journalists invited to the briefing were shown a redacted version of the document and asked by church officials to remain silent on information regarding the alleged abusers and their crimes.

All attendees reportedly rejected requests to sign the confidentiality agreement, which apparently read: “The journalist commits himself to exercise absolute silence regarding this information.”

Woelki has been accused of a cover-up by not informing the Vatican about a sexual abuse allegation involving a priest dating back to 2014, after Woelki became Archbishop of Cologne.

He initially promised a report into abuse allegations in Cologne in 2018, but he delayed its release at the end of October, saying it was “not legally valid,” contained prejudices, and had issues with regards to its methodology.

For anyone who understands German, the claims on the D.I. website are confirmed by one of the major German MSN newspapers:

Besides bringing impeachment charges against Trump yet again (McConnell manned up and foiled that plan fairly effectively, at least) the Dems want to strip him of his Secret Service protection, which would make any assassination attempts much more likely to succeed. Whatever is on Pelosi's laptop must be very incriminating.

"Sky News host Cory Bernardi says House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has an "unhealthy obsession with Donald Trump".

Senior Democrats, including Nancy Pelosi, have sought to urge Vice President Mike Pence to consider invoking the 25th Amendment and force Donald Trump’s removal from office.

Though there is under two weeks to go until inauguration day, the Democrats consider it a threat for Donald Trump to remain in office.

Nancy Pelosi has called on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke powers to remove President Trump from office otherwise the House will proceed with bringing legislation to impeach him.

Mr Bernardi said "crazy" Nancy Pelosi is attempting a "last-ditch stunt" against President Trump.

"She's not going to succeed with impeachment," Mr Bernardi said."

Republican Blocks House From Bringing Up 25th Amendment Resolution
BY JACK PHILLIPS January 11, 2021
https://www.theepochtimes.com/republican-blocks-house-from-bringing-up-25th-amendment-bill_3652031.html?utm_source=newsnoe&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=breaking-2021-01-11-2

"Rep. Alex Mooney (R-W.Va.) on Jan. 11 blocked Democrats from introducing a resolution via unanimous consent to call on Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove President Donald Trump.

The Democrat-backed resolution calls on Pence and the Cabinet to “declare what is obvious to a horrified Nation: That the President is unable to successfully discharge the duties and powers of his office.”

Democrats can now bring the resolution up for a vote on Jan. 12. Last week, Mooney was among the Republican lawmakers who didn’t vote to certify key states for President-elect Joe Biden.

Mooney said Pelosi “should not attempt to adopt a resolution of this magnitude without any debate on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives,” noting that “it is wrong to have sent members of Congress home and then try to adopt without any debate a precedent-setting resolution that could imperil our Republic. The U.S. House must never adopt a resolution that demands the removal of a duly elected president, without any hearings, debate, or recorded votes.”

Pence hasn’t issued a public comment on the matter. The Epoch Times has reached out to the White House for comment.

It came after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Jan. 10 said lawmakers need to “act with urgency” and said Trump is an immediate danger to the Constitution. The move came after protesters breached the U.S. Capitol building, with Democrats claiming that Trump incited violence.

In a Jan. 11 statement after the resolution was blocked, Pelosi stated: “The House Republicans rejected this legislation to protect America, enabling the President’s unhinged, unstable and deranged acts of sedition to continue. Their complicity endangers America, erodes our Democracy, and it must end.

“The House will next take up the Raskin legislation in regular order to call upon the Vice President to activate the 25th Amendment to remove the President. We are further calling on the Vice President to respond within 24 hours after passage.”

On Jan. 10, Pelosi said on CBS News’ “60 Minutes” that she prefers using the 25th Amendment—which requires Pence and a majority of Cabinet members to initiate—over impeachment.

On Jan. 11, Rep. Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), head of the campaign arm for House Republicans, said it would be better if Democrats and Republicans worked to resolve differences before Jan. 20.

“The violence we saw unfold in our nation’s capital last week has no place in our democracy,” Emmer said. “It was a disgusting and dangerous spectacle that ultimately cost people their lives.

“It is a politically motivated effort by Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats that will fracture our nation even more instead of bringing us together.”

The lawmaker noted that the anger that sparked the Capitol breach was, in part, triggered by years of “fomenting the type of vitriol that has been dividing our nation over the course of many years, and it has to stop.”

Trump told the crowd beforehand that their protest suggests “the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country” and “let us walk down Pennsylvania Avenue.” The president didn’t tell the protesters to breach the Capitol or commit acts of violence and later condemned the violence that occurred. Trump told the protesters to “peacefully and patriotically make your voices be heard.”

Also on Jan. 11, House Democrats introduced an article of impeachment and charged the president with “incitement of insurrection.”

“He also willfully made statements that, in context, encouraged—and foreseeably resulted in—lawless action at the Capitol,” the resolution stated. “Members of the crowd he had addressed, in an attempt to, among other objectives, interfere with the Joint Session’s solemn constitutional duty to certify the results of the 2020 Presidential election, unlawfully breached and vandalized the Capitol, injured and killed law enforcement personnel, menaced Members of Congress, the Vice President, and Congressional personnel, and engaged in other violent, deadly, destructive, and seditious acts.”

Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz said Democrats in the House have virtually no chance of succeeding.

“The case cannot come to trial in the Senate. Because the Senate has rules, and the rules would not allow the case to come to trial until—according to the majority leader—until 1 p.m. on Jan. 20, an hour after President Trump leaves office,” Dershowitz said in a Jan. 10 Fox Business interview."

In Norway, a meteorite hit the earth 120 kilometres north of Oslo. People in the area witnessed the spectacle, heard loud noises and saw a bright light.

The seismological research foundation Norsar announced this on Monday. According to this, the impact near a measuring station at Ltten already occurred on the night of 5 January and had to be analysed for the first time.

The researchers estimate that it weighed between half and two kilograms and that the celestial body rested on Earth at a speed of more than 50,000 kilometres per hour.

The phenomenon occurred not far from an area where there had been a violent landslide a few days earlier. According to Norwegian media reports, some people feared that it would be another exit.

Twitter Loses $5 Billion in Market Value After Banning President Trump


In the wake of the Capitol riots last Wednesday, Twitter and other Big Tech giants took cancel culture to new heights, permanently banning President Trump from their platforms.

Twitter was the first to permanently suspend Trump’s account.

“After close review of recent Tweets from @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” Twitter said.

At the time of the ban, Trump had more than 88 million followers, making him among the top six most followed users on the platform.

Twitter’s ban followed shortly after Facebook suspended the president for at least the rest of his presidency. CEO Mark Zuckerberg defended the decision in a Facebook post on Thursday, arguing that “[Trump’s] decision to use his platform to condone rather than condemn the actions of his supporters at the Capitol building has rightly disturbed people in the US and around the world.”

As a result of the ban, Twitter stock fell 12 percent on Monday, and the share-price decline wiped $5 billion from the company’s $41 billion market capitalization.

According to Business Insider, the stock likely fell because investors are worried that the ban will diminish interest in the platform and lead to boycotts among those who see the decisions as politically motivated and a way to silence conservative voices.




Facebook and Alphabet were also lower

JP Morgan Chase began THEIR treatment of customers AS terrorists to be watched, monitored, reprimanded, and needing to OBEY training to their bank managers during the Obama administration.

every dollar deposited in their account increases THEIR ability to make loans based on the fact that people make deposits there through fractal banking. though they are not alone in exercising this practice

they are VERY much alone and pioneers in instigating intrusiveness and violations to their customers as habitual and common predatory practices

they do NOT even like us
and for a VERY long time
they have not cared about showing it

let's withdraw our support ...communication where it WILL be heard ..

it is time to CLOSE the account and find a credit union with better rates, better service and who is NOT hostile towards us .. .their customers



getting used to being treated with hostility
and subversive modalities are NOT a good habits
to "get used to"..

just sayin'

and WE absolutely have BOTH the power .. AND platform

protonmail.com is the alternative i prefer to Google

but ANYTHING else WILL be a minus and MAKE the point that's needed

2 per day has been the goal ... which i HAVE accomplished ... daily

now imagine 100 or 1000 or 10,000 of us for just the same amount of time doing this with Twitter, FB AND Google?

i know they seem powerful to everyone

SEEM is the operative word here

in TRUTH?

WE .. the people .. HOLD the power

it is WHY they have taken control of the media

Trump just declassified all the Washington scandals. He is hiding at a military base.  The attack at the capitol was antifa and BLM, mostly.

This is not in any of the news or social media.

“IT'S HAPPENING!

Military takedowns and arrests begin this wknd and will continue forward for the next 13 days/nights. Some international raids have already started. Italy has also been found complicit in our election fraud.
Everyone will be getting emergency 🆘 alerts on their phones, tv's, radios & internet. It will override all other broadcasts and could last for several hours at a time. Do not to be scared of what's coming as it is for the safety of our nation for this to unfold.
DO NOT travel to any large cities (especially Philadelphia) for the rest of the month. Military operations will be taking place in many of the major corrupt cities. People will start rioting once this intel breaks thinking Trump is a military dictator. He only has 13 days to put this dog down.

The implementation of the Insurrection Act began after the raid on the Capitol and was marked by Trump's broadcast to the people to disband and return home. This broadcast wound up being blocked, for the most part, by the media. Nevertheless, his address fulfilled the requirements to initiate the Act.
Marines and National Guard troops are being moved as needed for the riots that will start after the national release of the intel. The intel will be dropped for everyone to see and hear in loops that will be several hours long. The system was just checked by the FCC a few days ago alerting ALL media that they cannot block the flow of intel under federal regs.
Trump will be moved continuously like a chess piece from now until the 20th in order to avoid any retaliation against him and family.
Trump had to exhaust ALL other means legally before this operation could commence. He gave everyone a fair chance to come clean and they refused.
His press release of a "smooth transition" did not include the word, "concede" as he has no plans to do so. Rather, there will be a smooth transition of power to his new cabinet, staff and Vice President, General Flynn.

The rally in DC was an awesome event
For what it's worth

World Leaders Denounce Big Tech Censorship of President Donald Trump
BY VICTORIA KELLY-CLARK 
January 12, 2021
https://www.theepochtimes.com/world-leaders-denounce-big-tech-censorship-of-us-president-donald-trump_3652983.html?utm_source=newsnoe&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=breaking-2021-01-12-1

"Political elites worldwide have criticized big tech companies for banning President Donald Trump from their social media platforms.
At present, the president has been banned from Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Snapchat, Reddit, and Instagram.

Twitter permanently removed Trump’s account, saying that his recent posts were in violation of the “Glorification of Violence Policy.”

German Chancellor Angela Merkel called Twitter’s ban on Trump “problematic,” and said that freedom of opinion is an essential right of “elementary significance,” her spokesperson, Steffen Siebert, said on Jan 11.
“This fundamental right can be intervened in, but according to the law and within the framework defined by legislators—not according to a decision by the management of social media platforms,” Siebert said.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel answers questions about the German government’s policy at the parliament Bundestag, in Berlin, Germany, on Dec. 16, 2020.
“Seen from this angle, the chancellor considers it problematic that the accounts of the U.S. president have now been permanently blocked,” he said.

Members of the French government agreed.
Clement Beaune, the junior minister for European Union affairs, said he was “shocked” a private company made this kind of decision.
“This should be decided by citizens, not by a CEO,” he told Bloomberg TV on Monday. 
“There needs to be public regulation of big online platforms."

French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire also condemned the move and said that tech giants were part of a digital oligarchy that was a threat to democracy.

Manfred Weber, the leader of the European People’s Party—a centre-right political party—echoed Beaune and called for Big Tech firms to be regulated.
“We cannot leave it to American Big Tech to decide how we can or cannot discuss online.
Today’s mechanisms destroy the compromise searching and consensus-building that are crucial in free and democratic societies.
We need a stricter regulatory approach,” he wrote on Twitter on Jan. 11.
"We cannot leave it to American Big Tech to decide how we can or cannot discuss online.
Today's mechanisms destroy the compromise searching and consensus building that are crucial in free and democratic societies.
We need a stricter regulatory approach." 
 
Meanwhile, Norway’s left-wing Labor Party leader Jonas Gahr Støre said that Big Tech censorship threatens political freedom around the world.
He said Twitter needs to apply the same standard globally that it did to Trump.“
This is a line where freedom of expression is also at stake,” said Støre.
“If Twitter starts with this sort of thing, it means that they have to go around the world and look at other people completely astray, and shut them out.

The Australian government has also called the ban on Trump an act of “censorship.”
Acting Prime Minister Michael McCormack said, “There’s been a lot of people who have said and done a lot of things on Twitter previously that haven’t received that sort of condemnation or indeed censorship.
I’m not one who believes in that sort of censorship.”
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said he was uncomfortable with Twitter’s ban on Trump. “Those decisions were taken by commercial companies, but personally, I felt uncomfortable with what they did,” he said.
Quoting Voltaire’s famous line: “I may not agree with what you say, but I defend the right to say it,” Frydenberg said that freedom of speech is fundamental to a democratic society.

Fellow Liberal Party member and senator, Alex Antic, said he will push for a Senate Select Committee into Big Tech’s influence and censorship of political ideas when the Australian Parliament resumes next month.
Antic told The Epoch Times on Jan. 12 that he is concerned that Big Tech can so easily censor one side of the debate.“Our democratic process is founded on our ability to share ideas freely and to be exposed to challenging and opposing viewpoints.
It is crucial to the integrity of that process that Big Tech companies do not censor one side of the debate,” Antic said.

Mexican President Manuel López Obrador also echoed his global counterparts, with Reuters reporting that he said it was a bad sign when private companies try to censor opinion.
Obrador said a “court of censorship like an inquisition to manage public opinion.”
“I don’t like anybody being censored or taking away from the right to post a message on Twitter or Face(book),” he said.

In Russia, the opposition leader, Alexey Navalny, who is an outspoken anti-corruption campaigner, said he believed the ban was an unacceptable form of censorship and was based not on a genuine need but rather Twitter’s political preferences.
In a thread posted on the platform on Jan. 10, Navalny said: “Don’t tell me he was banned for violating Twitter rules.
I get death threats here every day for many years, and Twitter doesn’t ban anyone.”
He noted that this pattern had been seen before in both Russian and China when big companies utilise their position to become a government best friend and enabler when it comes to state-based censorship laws.
“This precedent will be exploited by the enemies of freedom of speech around the world.
In Russia as well. Every time when they need to silence someone, they will say: ‘this is just common practice, even Trump got blocked on Twitter,'” he wrote on Twitter."

The greatest problem in association with both dispersing AND negating said announcements

is the CONTINUATION of people being side lined

SPECTATORS

OBSERVERS

and AS LONG as the people are WILLING to function in that capacity?

there WILL be those MORE than happy to SUPPLY

this isn't even spiritual ... its basic ECONOMICS .. supply and demand

yes ... Blastolabs the information was out there since 2016, is that when YOU became aware of it?

if you don't mind, may ask, then what?

WHAT did you do WITH that information or about it?

remember the old adage, FAITH without works is dead?

irrespective of religious associations, here is a FACT


KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT ACTION is useless

people ought to kinda pretend they didn't know rather than admit that they did,
and AFTER knowing opening a new tab on their browser
or sigh and go get another cup of coffee

i have NO respect for that NONE

almost better to pretend one didn't know ..

the thing is we ARE 100% response-ABLE for the knowledge we are given ... just btw

being "woke" was NEVER about HAVING knowledge ...

rather the ACTION that NEEDED to ensue because we KNEW ...
(higher standard and all ~ to whom much is given ... much is REQUIRED .. not suggested)

just a post up? a couple of suggestions that multiplied exponentially?

CAN and WOULD bring them to their knees .. not even kidding

in my experience:


http://giantgag.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/We-all-have-two-lives-The-second-begins-when-we-realize-you-only-have-one..jpg

maybe THAT should be the "Breaking News" Announcement to make:


WE ONLY HAVE ONE LIFE ~ THIS IS IT

the stuff we are reading? does not apply to THEM

it applies to US ...

the time we have left to TAKE action?

is quickly expiring ...

so it is time get ALL money OUT of JP MORGAN CHASE

AND to tell our friends and family

and NEVER EVER EVER use Google again

our comfort? is NOT worth our FREEDOM ....

personally? i'd like to thank Justintime to Learn for at least taking IMMEDIATE action to COMMUNICATE and to do so, AS SOON as he heard about it ...

THAT is something to commend, to appreciate

NOT criticize IMO ... so thank you~~~

our world would be radically different if more took action like that ..
:flower::flower::flower:

sorry ...but seriously .. this is where we are even if no one says so

I will ashamedly admit after seeing that information, I told no one. I believed it, I understood exactly how it would work but something in me made me questions its truth?

I've realized how dangerous this and how important speaking up can be, I am ashamed and the masses should be too once they realize how truly manipulated they have been.

Thank you for such strong and wise words, you were able to articulate your point without sounding like an attack and that is HARD to do and I envy you skill.

Thank you for existing iota


just to quickly explain MITM attacks...
I run Man In The Middle (MITM) attacks every now and then on my roomates as a joke. It is pretty easy if you are authenticated on a wifi to run a MITM where you sit between other person and the internet. I use it to change words "police" to "gestapo" so on their end anytime they would have read the word police it will say Gestapo. Its easy and this is exactly how the election fraud happened.

From iota's post we find these words. "Knowledge without action is useless." So true.

Further to that point: "It is not what you know that matters, it is what you do with what you know that matters."

I'm not sure who to attribute that statement to. It's something I heard or read years ago and it made perfect sense to me. I think of it every time someone says or I read "knowledge is power." No, it is not. Knowledge has no power, unless it is in action and put to use.

GODADDY KICKS BIGGEST GUN FORUM OFF INTERNET WITHOUT EXPLANATION

https://www.wnd.com/2021/01/godaddy-kicks-biggest-gun-forum-off-internet-without-explanation/

Joe Biden once promised that fellow Democratic presidential hopeful Beto O’Rourke, who famously threatened to send cops out to confiscate certain weapons, would be his point person on gun control if elected.

It seems that agenda has been launched, even before Biden’s inauguration.

The Federalist reports AR15.com, the largest gun forum, has been shut down by the web hosting company GoDaddy.


https://twitter.com/AR15COM/status/1348718045049610241

GoDaddy said AR15.com violated “terms of service.”

Is the U.S. government gearing up for a massive gun grab?

100% (3 Votes)

0% (0 Votes)

The move aligns with Biden’s vow to put new limits on firearms, and, as demonstrated by his praise for O’Rourke, advocate confiscation.

During the primary campaign, Biden, with his arm around O’Rourke, said: “I’m gonna guarantee you this is not the last you’ve seen of this guy. You’re going to take care of the gun problem with me. You’re gonna to be the one who leads this effort.

“I’m counting on you. I’m counting on you. We need you badly, the state needs you, the country needs you,” Biden said. “Thank you, thank you, thank you.”

GoDaddy told the Federalist the AR15 site “both promotes and encourages violence.” But it provided no examples.

Officials said the site already had found a new home, and the transition would take a few days.

Meanwhile, the Second Amendment Foundation’s executive vice president, Alan Gottlieb, noted Biden’s vow to “defeat the NRA,” which he called a threat to every gun owner.

“Joe Biden has labored relentlessly for decades to reduce the Second Amendment to rubble,” Gottlieb said. “He may attack one group by name, but his goal is to crush the rights of every gun owner in our country.

“By attacking the Second Amendment Rights of 100 million Americans,” Gottlieb continued, “Biden is not bringing us together but dividing us further. If people take to the streets in protest, if violence occurs it will be his fault and he should be impeached for violating our constitutional rights and inciting violence. Maybe it is time to ban him from Twitter and Facebook!”

SAF has launched a major advertising effort to recruit tens of thousands of gun owners for its Second Amendment First Responder program. SAF is running a one-minute message 40 times this week, on several national networks, to educate millions of law-abiding gun owners about the gun-rights battle, the group said.

“Joe Biden isn’t fooling anybody,” Gottlieb said. “He spent 47 years on Capitol Hill trying to turn the right to keep and bear arms into a regulated privilege. Now that he’s headed to the White House, he thinks he will be able to complete his mission. We’re working to swell the ranks of our 2nd Amendment First Responder project to stop him.”

The Daily Caller News Foundation earlier reported Biden was expanding his anti-gun contingent in his proposed Cabinet.

The newest two nominees were Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo and Boston Mayor Marty Walsh.

The Daily Caller News Foundation reported, “Raimondo, Biden’s pick for Commerce Secretary, pushed for a package of firearms bills in February of 2019, including a so-called “assault weapons” ban, a prohibition on “high-capacity” magazines and a permanent ban on 3D-printed guns, according to WJAR.”

Walsh, Biden’s pick for Labor secretary, has also called for gun control.

DCNF said: “The mayor, alongside Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey, unveiled a comprehensive firearm restriction bill in 2018 dubbed the Making America Safe and Secure, or MASS act, which would give monetary incentives for states who enact forms of gun regulation, according to Boston Magazine.”

At least seven other Cabinet nominees have advocated for stricter firearm laws, DCNF’s review found.

what this means:

it means they are testing the limit of how far they can go to control us

the answer:

they can ONLY go as far as WE let them

to KNOW this and do nothing means WE LET them

to KNOW this and take our business (and money) elsewhere and encourage EVERY website we notice USES Go Daddy to CEASE making them MORE wealthy and powerful

means WE take back OUR power

OUR power BELONGS to us

we REALLY should NEVER relinquish it

here is the best alternative i found (suggestions are welcomed)


https://www.couponchief.com/images/logos/12691_sq_2.jpg

NAMECHEAP
https://www.namecheap.com/

they not ONLY cost LESS than Go Daddy, they don't try to squeeze every last dime out of you for extra services

so you'll be doing a favor and let a business know how to save money which most likely will be appreciated

as an example:

GoDaddy charges almost $12 per domain purchase

Namecheap is only $ 7.98 and if you use this CODE: COUPONFCNC

saves even more ...

PLUS for Privacy to NOT have your name and phone number and address publicly listed there is a service called WHOISIT

GoDaddy wasn't happy just charging more, they charge an extra $10 for that

NAMECHEAP cost? > FREE .... for life

being that I AM SERIOUS about the preservation of FREEDOM?

i personally have SIX domains with GoDaddy i had wanted to move anyway, now i will do so to make a point and communicate this and that i will be buying all future domains elsewhere ..

take that GoDaddy

i don't like that symbol anyway ... likely nefarious ... and don't even want to know ..

after all, ACTIONS speak louder than words or silence, right?

and we're a bit behind schedule

Democrats, 10 Republicans Vote for 2nd Impeachment of Trump
BY IVAN PENTCHOUKOV
January 13, 2021
https://www.theepochtimes.com/democrats-nine-republicans-impeach-trump-again_3655278.html?utm_source=newsnoe&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=breaking-2021-01-13-3

"Democrats in the House of Representatives, joined by ten Republicans, voted to impeach President Donald Trump for a second time, in a 232–197 vote on Jan. 13. The single article of impeachment alleges that the president incited an insurrection that resulted in the breach of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

The impeachment, accomplished in a single seven-hour session, was the fastest in U.S. history. It is also the first time in the nation’s history that a president was impeached twice.

Republicans criticized the rush, arguing that it offered no due process to the president and no confidence in the proceedings to the American people. Democrats justified the truncated process by alleging that Trump poses a danger to the nation every day he is in office.

“We know that the president of the United States incited this insurrection, this armed rebellion, against our common country,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) alleged. “He must go. He is a clear and present danger to the nation that we all love.”

Every Democrat voted in favor of impeachment.

Some of the Republicans who voted to impeach the president were Republican Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), John Katko (R-N.Y.), Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), Fred Upton (R-Mich.), Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.), Dan Newhouse (R-Wash.), Anthony Gonzalez (R-Ohio), Tom Rice (R-S.C.), David Valadao (R-Calif.), and Peter Meijer (R-Mich.)

Some Republicans argued that moving forward with impeachment would further divide the nation.

“Instead of moving forward as a unifying force, the majority in the House is choosing to divide us further,” Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.) said. “I can think of no action the House could take that’s more likely to further divide the American people than the action we are contemplating today.”

Some of the Republicans who opposed impeachment didn’t explicitly defend the president. Others opposed the charge and argued that the president’s actions didn’t amount to incitement.

“At his rally, President Trump urged attendees to ‘peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.’ There was no mention of violence, let alone calls to action,” said Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-Pa.), a former Navy prosecutor. “President Donald Trump’s words would not even meet the definition of incitement under criminal statutes.”

“That’s impeachable? That’s called freedom of speech,” Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Calif.) said, noting that the president also threatened to oppose Republicans in future elections, including McClintock, who didn’t support objections to slates of electors. “Well, so what? That’s called politics. If we impeached every politician who gave a fiery speech to a crowd of partisans, this Capitol would be deserted.”

House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said that Trump holds responsibility for the attack on Congress, but opposed a rushed impeachment.

“He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding,” McCarthy said.

The mob had already breached Congress when Trump was giving a speech to a large crowd of supporters more than a 30-minute walk away, a timeline by The Epoch Times shows. After news of the breach of the Capitol was reported, the president issued a video message calling on the crowd to support the police and to go home. The day after, he said there will be “an orderly transition on Jan. 20.” The president later said he will not attend the inauguration.

Cole pointed out that every impeachment in modern history was preceded by a committee investigation that included testimony from witnesses and experts. He argued that a truncated process affords no due process to the president and does little to offer confidence in the process to the American people. Reschenthaler cautioned that charging Trump would “lower an already low bar for impeachment.”

Republicans proposed forming a bipartisan commission to investigate the breach as an alternative to impeachment. A pair of Republicans who spoke in favor of the commission characterized the Capitol breach as a domestic terror attack. Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) cautioned that foreign adversaries witnessed how easy it is to take out a branch of the U.S. government. The commission, if formed, would prepare a report for the president advising how to prevent a future breach, Davis said.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) noted that rioting was not isolated to the breach of the Capitol on Jan. 6, but has gone on for months, with politicians on both sides to blame. Mace appeared to refer to the nationwide riots fomented and executed by the Antifa extremist group and the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. The riots, arson, and looting caused up to $2 billion in damage across the nation and resulted in the deaths of two dozen people. McClintock suggested that if Antifa and BLM rioters had been diligently prosecuted, the events at the Capitol might not have occurred at all.

Democrats repeatedly cited the remarks by Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), the third-highest-ranking Republican in the House. Cheney had earlier said that she would vote to impeach Trump and alleged that Trump’s actions amounted to “the biggest betrayal of any president of the United States in our history.”

Not a single Republican in the House joined the Democrats when they impeached Trump for the first time in 2020. The House investigation and the Senate trial at that time turned up no first-hand witnesses to the allegation that the president abused his power by withholding foreign aid from Ukraine in a bid to force the nation’s president to start an investigation into the Ukrainian business dealings of Hunter Biden, son of President-elect Joe Biden.

Hunter Biden held a paid position on the board of a Ukrainian gas firm Burisma when Joe Biden served as the vice president. Joe Biden has bragged that he forced the firing of Ukraine’s top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, by threatening to withhold $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees. Shokin has alleged in a sworn statement that he was fired because he refused to drop an investigation into Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma.

The breach of the Capitol took place while the two chambers debated whether an objection to the counting of presidential electors from Arizona should be affirmed. After the building was secured, both chambers voted to overrule the objection. More than one hundred Republicans voted to uphold the objection.

Democrats criticized the Republicans who voted in favor of the objection. Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), who coordinated the floor speeches prior to the impeachment debate, had objected himself in 2017 to the counting of the electors from Alabama. The lead manager of the impeachment proceedings, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), had objected in 2017 to the counting of the Florida electors.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said: “Americans are tired of the double standard. They are so tired of it. Democrats objected to more states in 2017 than Republicans did last week, but somehow we’re wrong.”

Democrats, including Pelosi, selectively quoted from Trump’s speech on Jan. 6, in which the president said “we fight like hell” in regards to his team’s legal battle to challenge the legitimacy of the election in several states.

“I think one of our great achievements will be election security, because nobody, until I came along, had any idea how corrupt our elections were,” the president said, before noting that others would not have taken a stand. “We fight like hell, and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”

The impeachment follows an unprecedented wave of censorship against the president by U.S. social media giants. Facebook, Twitter, and Google had all banned Trump from their platforms as of Jan. 13.

Jordan said: “It’s not about impeachment anymore. It’s about canceling the president and anyone that disagrees with them.” "

"The House just passed a second impeachment against President Trump. It will now head over to the Senate… which is in recess. So the earliest that the trial can start is on January 20th, which is after President Trump’s first term is over. So in theory, the whole thing is moot.

However, Democrats are arguing that President Trump can be impeached even after he’s out of office... but is that true?"

based on those assumptions .. yes ..

and there is also the Trump factor to consider ... so could be 2024 ... could be earlier ...

until we reach the end ... we REALLY do not KNOW the whole story ....

i'll give you a hint ... its not so much him or the dems but the people who will decide

believe it or not ... its the you and the me's that are actually choosing how this will play out ...

and not quite ready to give up on us yet!

PS i don't mean to be cryptic .. and i won't be ... i will lay it all out in the we don't know the whole story thread ... and hopeffully the right eyes will "see" what there is to do with these "characters" in OUR play

Radically change it will.

From where I am sitting I just hope I can muster the courage to wait and see the unfolding so I can make an informed decision instead of attaching myself emotionally to the sides the old structures had put in place for me to get caught up in.


Radical changes rarely if at all turn out the way we want them to. Taking a stand too soon will only create a bigger counter force..

Radical changes rarely if at all turn out the way we want them to. Taking a stand too soon will only create a bigger counter force..

the change that is coming and being 'forced' if you will, is precisely to STOP counting, depending, relying on EXTERNAL forces to BE the determining factors in our lives

the fact that we have done this for so long IS what brought everyone to this point

right now, it is sinking in

the part that needs to "let go" of the reliance and grab a hold of the wheel that steers their life is taking a bit long to come into their awareness ... there is a terror IN "letting go" and a process of cognitive dissonance that goes with it

most Trump supporters are rather depressed, most democrats are doing ALL they can to take advantage of this momentary loss of balance and CONVINCE them that there is nothing they can do about it

THAT is NOT TRUE

and the dems are frantic to take every advantage before they come to this realization

but some will falter and wander for a while

but NONE can stand to be in that state for a prolonged period of time

and then the CHOICE will be made

it is actually being made now

some are acquiescing ... giving up and giving in

THAT is THEIR choice ... and their RIGHT to Choose is something the universe takes seriously and so will give them the experience they are asking for

and all the while they will protest how they didn't want it

maybe not, but it WAS what they CHOSE

hopefully, at a later time, they will make a different choice

others will connect to their Authentic Power, you know the one they CANNOT connect to as long as they are giving their power away

just can't have things both ways and it is a fact that TWO things CANNOT occupy the SAME space

so to "get" something else?

one has to "let go" of what has been "held" on to for soooo very long

do you think that ANYONE would just casually make this choice?

not on your life

it TAKES radical impetuous, catalyst TO move in that direction

NOT for everyone ... some like you ... some like me ... pursue change of our own volition

the catalyst WE require (and this TOO was a CHOICE) is of much less volatile nudge ...

c'est tout

PS i AM a Trump supporter .. so why am i NOT depressed?

one because Trump too is connected to his Authentic Power as am i

people who are connected to their Authentic Power were never relying on external forces to provide us with the outcomes we CHOOSE

not just want

we CHOOSE

and then we take ACTION to get it

i WILL live in FREEDOM and ALL of the ideals that Trump declared himself to stand for ...
and i WILL take action to ensure it ...

why would i be depressed over a specific outcome relating to someone else?

the one in charge of MY life? is ME

the thing is that this CHOICE is available to everyone and as soon as this realization become REAL to them?

THAT will absolutely be radical ... a wondrous and radical change IS available for everyone

Lol

You seem very invested in this particular dichotomy.
I hope you reach your goal.

I will operate from my own authenticity.
And guess what. It is different from yours or Trump's, or Biden's.

Isn't life wonderfull that way?

[Catsquotl]

the change that is coming and being 'forced' if you will, is precisely to STOP counting, depending, relying on EXTERNAL forces to BE the determining factors in our lives





and yet by giving your support to any politician aren't you giving your power to him?
Don't you rely on him to make things right and stop the evil democrats?





THAT is THEIR choice ... and their RIGHT to Choose is something the universe takes seriously and so will give them the experience they are asking for

and all the while they will protest how they didn't want it

maybe not, but it WAS what they CHOSE



Are you sure about that?
What exactly do you think they are choosing and why is your authentic self more aligned with universal forces that any other man who feels aligned?





hopefully, at a later time, they will make a different choice

others will connect to their Authentic Power, you know the one they CANNOT connect to as long as they are giving their power away






i WILL live in FREEDOM and ALL of the ideals that Trump declared himself to stand for ...
and i WILL take action to ensure it ...

why would i be depressed over a specific outcome relating to someone else?

the one in charge of MY life? is ME

the thing is that this CHOICE is available to everyone and as soon as this realization become REAL to them?

THAT will absolutely be radical ... a wondrous and radical change IS available for everyone

:shielddeflect:


So choosing Trump is not giving your power away? And his way will make you reclaim your charge of your own life?
I am truly struggling to follow your logic here..


I'd say that taking back your life is not succumbing to anger, depression or elation over any political outcome.
Instead taking an appropriate distance from the ways of the world and act on those little or big things life shows us, where we can make a difference.


Ah well that's my foolish notion anyways..

I really like the way you've expressed this idea and I believe it's true.

There's a bible quote about trusting no man, which I don't interpret as saying everyone is evil or deceptive, but that if you invest too much belief in any one person then you're risking a let-down at some point. We're all human after all.

I wonder how much they all got paid for this protest, just wait til they all turn when the dems say they don't need blm or antifa and tell them their services are no longer needed and then they realize how used they have been. Thats when the shxt show really starts. But as biden always said , Antifa is just an idea so they really don't exist.

The Dutch government will decide on Friday whether to step down over an escalating scandal in which tax officials wrongly accused thousands of parents of fraud, plunging many families into debt by ordering them to repay childcare allowances.

The opposition Labour party leader, Lodewijk Asscher, who was social affairs minister in the previous government, resigned over the affair on Thursday, denying he knew the tax authority was “wrongly hunting down thousands of families” but conceding a failing system had “made the government an enemy of its people”.

The prime minister, Mark Rutte, has said he opposes dissolving the current coalition, arguing the Netherlands needs stability amid the coronavirus pandemic, but has not ruled it out. The cabinet will review its position at a regular meeting on Friday.

The four ruling parties in Rutte’s coalition are deeply divided in their response to a damning report on the scandal but are thought to prefer ending their alliance rather than risk losing a no-confidence vote next Tuesday, after a planned parliamentary debate on the report.

The MPs’ report, titled Unprecedented Injustice, was published last month after an inquiry into the childcare benefits scandal that included public questioning of officials up to and including Rutte.

It established that “fundamental principles of the rule of law were violated” by the Dutch tax authority, with fraud investigations into families triggered by “something as simple as an administrative error, without any malicious intent”.

The investigating committee chairman, Chris van Dam, called the system “a mass process in which there was no room for nuance”, with more than 20,000 working families pursued for fraud before the courts, ordered to repay child support benefits and denied the right to appeal over several years from 2012.

Some were pushed close to bankruptcy or forced to move house by unjust claims for tens of thousands of euros when the alleged fraud amounted to an incorrectly filled-out form or a missing signature. Several couples separated under the strain.

Government ministers, MPs, civil servants and court judges all bore their share of responsibility, the report concluded, recommending that “everyone in the apparatus of state should ask how such a thing can be prevented from happening again”.

The government has apologised for the tax office’s methods and in March last year set aside more than €500m (£450m) in compensation, about €30,000 for each family.

Following accusations of racial profiling, the tax authority has also admitted that 11,000 dual-nationality families were singled out for special scrutiny. However, Dutch prosecutors have declined to open an investigation into possible discrimination, saying they had found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing.

“Responsibility for culpable acts attributable to the state must be sought in the political domain and not in criminal law,” public prosecutors said last week.

Twenty of the families involved this week took legal action against ministers from three of the parties in Rutte’s current coalition for their role in the scandal, alleging criminal negligence through a failure of good good governance, discrimination and violating children’s rights.

The health minister, Tamara van Ark, finance minister, Wopke Hoekstra, economic affairs minister, Eric Wiebes, former tax minister Menno Snel – as well as Asscher – are all named in the case documents, filed with Dutch supreme court.

The fate of the government hangs mostly in the hands of Rutte’s coalition partners, with at least one leader – Sigrid Kaag of the social-liberal D66 party – saying this week that political consequences from the parliamentary report were inevitable.

If it does collapse, the government would stay on in a caretaker capacity until a new coalition was formed, with general elections due in March and Rutte and his centre-right People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy performing strongly in polls.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jan/14/dutch-government-faces-collapse-over-child-benefits-scandal?fbclid=IwAR2TaINfMnDBwhXjgoO30nYDDHID27Um88a7owPg3QX0IKXCcc0iMPeuItM

HELSINKI (AP) — Estonia’s president on Thursday tasked the leader of the main opposition party to form a new government, a day after Prime Minister Juri Ratas and his Cabinet stepped down in the wake of a corruption scandal in Ratas' ruling Center Party.

Kaja Kallas, chairwoman of the center-right Reform Party that emerged as the winner of the 2019 general election, will have 14 days to put together a new Cabinet, President Kersti Kaljulaid said.

The Baltic country's head of state urged Kallas to move rapidly as the new government needs to immediately start tackling a worsening COVID-19 situation and the economic turmoil caused by the pandemic.

“Both the Estonian people and I are expecting that Estonia will quickly have an active and competent government, which focuses on handling the pandemic and the economic crisis and on making our lives better,” Kaljulaid said in a statement after meeting with Kallas.

Ratas and his Cabinet resigned Wednesday over a scandal involving a key official at his Center Party suspected of accepting a private donation for the party in exchange for a political favor on a real estate development at the harbor district of the capital, Tallinn.

After the announcement by Ratas, who had led a three-party coalition with his left-leaning Center Party, the nationalist EKRE party and the conservative Fatherland party since April 2019, parties immediately started informal talks on cobbling together a new government.

On Thursday, the Reform Party said it would start official government formation talks with the Center Party. Together, the two parties would muster a comfortable majority at the 101-seat Riigikogu Parliament.

According to Estonian public broadcaster ERR, a new Cabinet could be sworn in on Jan. 25 under Kallas.

The government formation marks the second such attempt for Kallas, 43, in less than two years as she failed to bring about a Reform Party-led coalition after the March 2019 general election.

If successful, she would become the first female prime minister in the history of Estonia, which regained its independence in 1991 amid the collapse of the Soviet Union. A lawyer and former European Parliament lawmaker, she is the daughter of Siim Kallas, one of the Reform Party’s creators and a former prime minister.

Kallas has ruled out including the populist EKRE, the nation's third-largest party which runs on a nationalist, anti-immigration and anti-European Union agenda, in the new Cabinet, citing considerable differences in values. The pro-business and pro-entrepreneurship Reform Party defines itself on its website as “the leader of the liberal worldview in Estonia.”

Due to EKRE's strong rhetoric, Ratas' government was shaky from the start.

The EKRE leaders, Mart Helme and his son Martin Helme, caused Ratas' government several embarrassments with public statements that were seen as insulting to Estonia's international allies and which brought the government to the brink of collapse at least twice.

It's a jewel of symbolic politics.
Everyone is happy, The current cabinet stays on in a diminished capacity, but they keep going where corona legislation is concerned.
Elections were due in march anyway, so nobody is worried.


Before x-mas the government had promised monetary compensation, but so fat has not put up a dime...
So far only one minister (economics) will step down and give his current affairs to someone else..

Don't be fooled by the image they are desperately trying to uphold. You are watching a scripted television show. The prime minister is definitely well protected by security guards. He does this in front of the camera and after 'cut!' is being yelled, (or when he is around the corner), he steps off his bike, and gets into a car with chauffeur. And he doesn't live in a small appartment either. It's all fake.

those that are unaware of what you stated are ONLY unaware because of the choices they've made

all of us at some point have been too happy to just rely on the official narrative that the news puts out without being response-ABLE to see for ourselves what in fact is going on

and because ALL choice has an effect? we MUST be at the effect of THAT choice

so that perhaps in the new present moment that arrives with each new second of each day, perhaps we'll make a different choice

at least the opportunity WILL be given us

That is hilarious. I live in The Hague, and worked for a restaurant in a street where he drives by DAILY. After every workday he will pass that restaurant. And he always greets everyone too.

So yes, I'm sure alot of it is scripted, but not ALL of it. He really DOES go to work and home on a bike, WITHOUT a security detail. It's great that you have this idea that he doesn't, but it's different when you actually see it with your own eyes.

He is definitely being followed by security detail, not in uniform of course. Because people living in The Hague, like you, have to buy into it as well, otherwise it wouldn't work. The word would get out. It's an act. I know a couple of people from The Hague as well, they see politicians all the time as well. Some people from parliament take a bike or a train, unaccompanied. But the PM definitely has his security. But he needs to stay 'one of us', especially in these times.

I think it is important to be aware politics are happening around the world and in our own backyard. But if you dwell on it you will drive yourself completely crazy. I personally feel, when it comes to American politics I am helpless, there is nothing I can do to effect change other than continuing to send my energies to the good side, and then hunker down and hold on, it is a crazy ride.

[Deneon]

Nothing about this is about politics. I'm not disputing that alot of everything you see on the news is meant to manipulate us. I don't vote, but if I did, I probably wouldn't vote for this guy. And yes, the images of him going to work on a bike, are also used to manipulate us. That doesn't mean it's not actually happening though. It's not ALL OR NOTHING.

You're making a fool of yourself by saying he "definitely gets into a car around the corner". That is simply not true. Everyone who lives in The Hague knows that isn't true. When I point that out, you don't mention the chauffeur thing anymore, but now you're 'definitely' sure he will have security people following him. What if I show you a video of him riding a bike all by himself, not made by news agencies but by people on the streets? Will you then change your 'definite' info again? Maybe change your wording and not use the word 'definitely' when it's clear you don't actually KNOW this at all, you just BELIEVE it.

My point is simply this: don't state something as fact, if you don't actually know it's a fact. Now I can't take anything you say seriously, and I'm sure that's not actually what you wanted to achieve.

It seems that all political events are scripted reality shows, all the politicians live in their own reality and have no concern for the citizens that they govern. As many said, they make empty gestures. Our race needs to advance spiritually further along to see any significant. As long as politicians continue to play zero sum games, things continues to deteriorate. Will there be an inflection point that our society can somehow collectively say enough is enough and work together to reboot our planet?

Perhaps.

I do believe many politicians get into that because of good intentions and many of them cannot see beyond what they have been spoonfed.
I will not vote, because I don't believe in parliamentary democracy. Power corrupts and my guess is that that process happens to those in power unseen.



Days like today though make it hard not to see the emptiness. If our parliament would have stayed odds were very high on them being sent home next week by the chamber. (senate?)

I did not want to achieve anything. And I really don't care how I am perceived by you. I have noticed your posts for a while now, and since January 6 you have suddenly been very active here. Most of your posts are causing a lot of arguments here. And you seem to like that. Just saying, so I don't care whether I 'win' or 'lose' an argument from you.

Now I will be checking if I wrote the word 'definitely', but my point was: a lot is being scripted. I know the media scene. I know how politics work too. I have been in that scene for a short while as wel. I know not everything is fake, and I might have been exaggerating when I mentioned the 'cut-scene' (though it is a wonderful analogy of what is happening in the world right now), but I do know how much effort is being put into keeping up appearances. And not because I 'think' so, but because I know that from experience and especially from people who work, or have worked in media and politics.

And, if I wanted to discuss further, which I don't, but if I wanted that, then I would ask: who in the center of The Hague is ever totally by himself?

Found it. This is what I wrote:

"The prime minister is definitely well protected by security guards."

Yes, indeed, turns out: most people don't like being caught in a lie. Who would've thought? I'm agreeing with most people here about the state of the world and the need for change. ALL I've been doing is pointing out factual errors. It clearly was not appreciated, and I stopped posting about them.

Once again, I don't disagree. Politics are a sham. Media are a sham. I agree with all of that. However: you stated something that I know to be a lie. Period. Thats what I pointed out.

I wouldn't wanna discuss further either, after I've just been caught spreading disinfo. There is nothing to 'discuss'. You're wrong. I don't think you are, it's not my opinion that you are. I KNOW from personal experience that you're wrong.

[iota]

Damn. it go all .NL in here... haha

this is probably how a large portion of the forum feels reading incessant US politics?

good times

I think it is important to be aware politics are happening around the world and in our own backyard. But if you dwell on it you will drive yourself completely crazy. I personally feel, when it comes to American politics I am helpless, there is nothing I can do to effect change other than continuing to send my energies to the good side, and then hunker down and hold on, it is a crazy ride.

i understand .. and THAT is what they would like people to think and therefore feel.

it is false

but you can't know this until you actually take action

for example, a few years back there was some city council man who decided to make 'homelessness" a crime. a friend, who felt like you and had NO experience in actually looking at something and saying "hey that's not right" and doing something about it called me

so i began my campaign of informing people. people of LARGE groups. i specifically avoided the conspiracy woke crowd

WHY?

sometimes we are SO "aware" of things, that many just sigh and read the next post .. (non action)

then i alerted the news ... ALL of them ... from SURROUNDING areas, not them, which FORCED the local news to "Catch up" in reporting ...

ALL information i provided included the city council man's phone number AND the mayor's

within 72 hours the city council man had a change of heart

he was on the news apologizing

but that's not all, since the issue had no been raised ... with people NOT so blaze, solutions were sought AND found

it not only STOPPED an injustice, it resolved it

it is PRECISELY the feeling OF being powerless that renders people non active

and there is NO way TO be successful WITHOUT action

THAT is just FACT

Nothing about this is about politics. I'm not disputing that alot of everything you see on the news is meant to manipulate us. I don't vote, but if I did, I probably wouldn't vote for this guy. And yes, the images of him going to work on a bike, are also used to manipulate us. That doesn't mean it's not actually happening though. It's not ALL OR NOTHING.

You're making a fool of yourself by saying he "definitely gets into a car around the corner". That is simply not true. Everyone who lives in The Hague knows that isn't true. When I point that out, you don't mention the chauffeur thing anymore, but now you're 'definitely' sure he will have security people following him. What if I show you a video of him riding a bike all by himself, not made by news agencies but by people on the streets? Will you then change your 'definite' info again? Maybe change your wording and not use the word 'definitely' when it's clear you don't actually KNOW this at all, you just BELIEVE it.

My point is simply this: don't state something as fact, if you don't actually know it's a fact. Now I can't take anything you say seriously, and I'm sure that's not actually what you wanted to achieve.

I did not want to achieve anything. And I really don't care how I am perceived by you. I have noticed your posts for a while now, and since January 6 you have suddenly been very active here. Most of your posts are causing a lot of arguments here. And you seem to like that. Just saying, so I don't care whether I 'win' or 'lose' an argument from you.

Yes, indeed, turns out: most people don't like being caught in a lie. Who would've thought? I'm agreeing with most people here about the state of the world and the need for change. ALL I've been doing is pointing out factual errors. It clearly was not appreciated, and I stopped posting about them.


Now I will be checking if I wrote the word 'definitely', but my point was: a lot is being scripted. I know the media scene. I know how politics work too. I have been in that scene for a short while as wel. I know not everything is fake, and I might have been exaggerating when I mentioned the 'cut-scene' (though it is a wonderful analogy of what is happening in the world right now), but I do know how much effort is being put into keeping up appearances. And not because I 'think' so, but because I know that from experience and especially from people who work, or have worked in media and politics.

Once again, I don't disagree. Politics are a sham. Media are a sham. I agree with all of that. However: you stated something that I know to be a lie. Period. Thats what I pointed out.


And, if I wanted to discuss further, which I don't, but if I wanted that, then I would ask: who in the center of The Hague is ever totally by himself?

You see, here is a good example of what I mean: you now call it a lie. That is just ridiculous, and antagonizing.

[Deneon]

Don't be fooled by the image they are desperately trying to uphold. You are watching a scripted television show. The prime minister is definitely well protected by security guards. He does this in front of the camera and after 'cut!' is being yelled, (or when he is around the corner), he steps off his bike, and gets into a car with chauffeur. And he doesn't live in a small appartment either. It's all fake.

I know, again, from personal experience, this is not true. To me, that means it's a lie. What would you call it?

I suppose that depends on your definition of success. Being loud and forceful is not my style. I prefer to influence people by influencing their energies and working quietly in the background.

THEN there was the time they executed a young man in Aneheim... California police thought they were going to get away with it. they had before ...

again i took action

THAT action SPREAD the news like wild fire some may remember hearing strong demonstrations over it

so i thought ... hmmm ...there's more than one way to skin a cat

what do they value?

Anaheim has Disneyland

so i communicated with the city council that my best friend owned a travel agency and since THEY were more or less allowing the execution of the young man for running ...

(BACKSTORY all he had done was when he saw the police was just turn and sprint away, he just didn't want to be hassled AGAIN)

so i stated that MOST people exercise

running is an activity that MOST young me engaged in

I was getting older and even I on occasion liked to run, i would not appreciate getting executed for that

SOOOO there could possibly BE liabilities IF travel agencies did NOT issue warning to anyone wishing to travel TO Anaheim that the police had just executed a young man for ... exercising

imagine ALL across the United States that advisory

yea ... they didn't want to ...

so THAT forced city council to acknowledge and hold "meetings" with FULL crowds holding them responsible

this illusion of being powerless is just THAT

an illusion

There is your answer, but you choose to to seek an argument, that is why you call it a lie, after I explained myself.

people will perceive actions through the filter of their own experiences and their own biases and their own fears

which means that what you see reflects directly on you

what i look for are the results

if being quiet did the trick?

then THAT is what i'd do

and one can "view" it as one will

but there is no denying ... whatever i may be "labeled"?

what i AM .. is effective

I know, again, from personal experience, this is not true. To me, that means it's a lie. What would you call it?

"Lie" implies a deliberate intention to deceive as most people think of it.
A mistake or misinformation or misinterpretation are all distinctions from an out and out lie.

noun
noun: lie; plural noun: lies
an intentionally false statement.

Deneon, please stop with the accusation, not every inaccuracy is a lie.

Now both of you please stand down. It's all too easy to have something spiral out of control, especially in our current and very tense environment, so let's call it a day and get back on topic.

Thank you in advance :)

Yes, and in my case I would call it an assumption and exaggeration, based on facts I know about media and politics, to make the point that he is not this sweet innocent kid who goes to work on his bike, an image which the media loves to portray of him.

TAKEN Franchise Comes to an End



Liam Neeson: I’m retiring from ass-kicking before I need a walker

NY Post reports:

Liam Neeson is “Taken” a permanent break from kicking bad guy butt.

Putting to bed his menacing, “I will find you and I will kill you” threats, Neeson, 68, announced Thursday that he is taking his very particular set of skills and retiring from the action movie genre.

“Im 68 and a half — 69 this year,” the Oscar nominee explained on Entertainment Tonight.

“There’s a couple more I’m going to do this year — hopefully, COVID allowing us — there’s a couple in the pipeline and, then I think that will probably be it.”

“Well, unless I’m on a Zimmer frame or something,” Neeson added, joking he’d need a walker to continue violently vanquishing villains as he’s done in high-octane hits such as “Taken,” “Non-Stop” and forthcoming feature film “The Marksman.”

Facing off with drug cartel assassins as an ex-Marine turned defender of a young Mexican boy in “The Marksman,” set for release Friday, Neeson admitted he’ll miss the fisticuffs of thriller flicks.

“I love doing ’em,” he said. “I love beating up guys half my age.”

But Neeson recently realized the beatings were taking more of a toll on him while shooting his other upcoming blockbuster, “Backlight.”

“I’ve just finished [‘Blacklight’] in Australia and I had a fight scene with a kid — lovely, sweet actor called Taylor,” the Northern Irishman — who’s received royal honors from the queen herself — he said.

“And halfway through the fight I looked up, I was breathless and it didn’t cost him a cent, and I said, ‘Taylor, what age are you?’ He said, ‘25.’ I said, ‘That’s the age of my eldest son [Micheál Richardson]!’”

The “Dark Knight Rises” star previously denounced doing anymore superhero movies—noting his disdain for having to “go into the gym for three hours every day to pump myself up to squeeze into a Velcro suit with a cape.”

Nonetheless, Neeson is honored by fans’ demands he reprise his role as Zeus from “Clash of the Titans” to star alongside Gal Gadot as her omnipotent father in “Wonder Woman 3.”

“I guess so, sure. I mean, I’m very flattered!,” the box-office boomer said, before revealing that he didn’t know Zeus is Wonder Woman’s dad.

“I wasn’t aware that the ancient Greek gods appeared in ‘Wonder Woman.’ I have to say, much to my chagrin, I haven’t seen kind of the ‘Wonder Woman’ movies.”

Once brought up to speed on comic book lore, Neeson said with a cheeky grin: “I’ll call my agent!”

And the winner is......Russia!

When Russia's entire government resigned on Wednesday, even long-term Kremlin observers were taken by surprise.

Earlier in the day, Vladimir Putin had announced his plan to push through reforms that would make his successor as president less powerful, by redistributing power in such a way that that the Russian parliament and office of prime minister will have greater clout.

He thanked the resigning members of the government for their service, but said that "not everything worked out."

In the last two years, Putin's approval ratings have taken a dip, partly a result of unpopular pension reforms and a stagnating economy. 2019 was also riddled with street protests over municipal elections as Russia's fragmented opposition expressed discontent with what they see as a president and the ruling elite that have overstayed their power.

However, as the exact details of this mass resignation -- led by current prime minister and former president Dmitry Medvedev -- unfurled, it was clear that this was no protest at Putin's proposed reforms.

Mark Rutte’s government on Friday resigned over a child benefits scandal in which thousands of parents were falsely accused of fraud, but the Dutch prime minister has escaped relatively untouched.

Rutte will run for a fourth term in a general election to be held in two months, and his center-right People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) is leading in the polls and projected to win 39 seats — six more than in the 2017 ballot.

“I believe that I can continue as a party leader, but it’s ultimately up to the voter,” Rutte said Friday, adding that he “had no direct involvement” in the benefits scandal, which lasted from 2013 to 2019."

Is this the big declas? Just seen on my Twitter feed.

https://linktr.ee/kagbabe?fbclid=IwAR1J1yYJdjK0tFQtZ8WLpzzkkYosPsz_tHU3JjE2WPtJJh70U2FFiMWrrfs

Hope that link works, it includes the Black Vault that John (Kuhles) recently posted about. I’m surprised there wasn’t a thread about that sooner. I certainly can’t trawl through thousands of documents, my eyesight and patience is not up to it. But I do hope some intrepid researchers, journalists and maybe Avalonians are digging deep into it. Or has apathy set in across the world as we find ourselves exhausted by all the information and disinformation? In which case the scammers, scum and controlled (alternative) opposition, have won the game and when the truth comes out, no-one’s interested! 😕
