    Clandestine
    @WarClandestine
    I didn’t hear Trump or a the GOP candidates mention Big Pharma or the fact C19 was man-made.

    Am I the only one who remembers the last 4 years?

    A man-made virus halted our society/economy, 50 million Americans lost their jobs overnight, and it killed over 1 million Americans.

    And then government health agencies and the media KNOWINGLY lied to the American People about the safety and efficacy of the “vaccines”, lied about viable treatments for the virus that they created, lied about the uselessness of masks, lied about the origin of the virus, and coerced 230 million Americans to get an experimental injection that turned out to be harmful. All so they could weaponized mail-in ballots to steal the election
    , obtain power, steal billions of dollars, and abuse manufactured crises to censor and propagandize the planet.

    The fact that this subject was not talked about AT ALL, absolutely blows my mind.

    It’s like you all forgot they made us wear face diapers and stand 6 feet apart for years. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

    It's probably because people enmasse want so badly for it to stay in the past and be forgotten, never to be repeated.
    Of course, it's not going to be that easy...

    @GenFlynn
    The rule of law has been crushed in America, and it is almost pointless to think the left will change course to correct the two justice systems we clearly now have in America.

    This is being done all while the @GOP
    stands frozen in their pathetic establishment stance doing MSM and cable news interviews telling us how hard they’re “considering” taking action.


    Please stop with the patronizing of American citizens. We are not stupid!

    Even the candidates stand there during a debate speaking out loud like anyone cares what any of them think…especially when they speak of such idiocy as to whether they will consider a pardon for @realDonaldTrump
    . What they should say is the egregious and unlawful attacks against him should immediately cease.

    And how dare they speak as though we are experiencing a “politics as usual” period in American history. What is transpiring across American culture & transfiguring American politics is most definitely not normal.


    We’re experiencing a historic and global shift of epic dimensions w/ grave consequences. A global alliance is clearly forming against America and yet, we still stand as the true North Star, shining a bright light on the human birthright of freedom.

    Freedom for our families, for our country and for all of humanity.

    In our DNA is the very essence of freedom. A DNA that these same globalists are working overtime to modify. Science is not the problem, their lack of power over our fierce and independent and very patriotic American attitudes is their problem—and they know it.

    I’ll end this here, but after traveling across the nation for the past two weeks meeting seriously great and God-fearing American patriots who have yet begun to truly stand for our homeland, I write this missive for everyone of you—thank you for inspiring me and my family. We stand with you and we will keep pushing my message of local action.

    Local action is the way for everyone who cares deeply about our children and all future generations to respond. Take action by standing up, stepping up and speaking up.

    Everyone who cherishes freedom over tyranny needs to get involved
    or forever hold your tongues.

    Our nation and our freedom hang in the balance.

    God Bless you all and may God Bless America 🦅🙏🏼🇺🇸

    National accountability is more important than Trump's ego. It's not reassuring for Trump to be bragging about a period of time when Americans witnessed the greatest civil rights violations in modern history under the rubric of fighting a pandemic.

    Trump should be talking about rolling back the biofascist state, holding Big Pharma accountable, and promising heads will roll, not patting himself on the back for policies like ventilators, which killed people

    🚨🚨🚨MUST WATCH🚨🚨🚨🚨

    EXCLUSIVE VIDEO:

    I have exclusively obtained Video evidence and police body camera footage of a police officer in Escambia County, FL by the name of Deputy K. Haley, badge number 614272 interacting with CIA/FBI Nazi Asset and Azov Battalion fighter Kent “BoneFace” McLellan.

    In the video, you can hear the police officer ask McLellan to spell his last name, and the officer verbally admits on video that McLellan is in their database and the FBI’s database as a “terrorist organization member” and in his file, it says to “contact the screening center” and the FBI. The officer is seen and heard on this video I have exclusively obtained looking at McLellan’s lengthy criminal record on his computer in his police car and says “armed, dangerous, violent tendencies” and then he asks McLellan “are you Ukrainian”, to which McLellan replies “I just got back from Ukraine”.

    This weekend I exposed McLellan as a CIA/FBI asset and a Ukrainian tied Nazi after I confronted him and his colleagues at a Nazi rally in Altamonte Springs, FL where he and others were shouting anti-Jewish slurs at me and waving swastika flags.

    The officer from Escambia County, Florida is heard in the police body cam video saying “it says to contact the @FBI . I’ve never seen this before…. They have Border Patrol’s number on this.”

    This is undeniable and irrefutable evidence that @BoneFaceTheMC
    Kent “BoneFace” McLellan, a Nazi domestic terrorist and violent criminal is an FBI/CIA asset who has been flown back and forth to Ukraine with the help of the US Government and the @JoeBiden administration to fight the Russians as a U.S. backed intelligence asset.

    This is proof the CIA/FBI and Florida law enforcement are protecting NAZIS and Ukrainian war criminals, given the fact that McLellan was also recently given a Ukrainian passport.


    @joeBiden’s administration is working with and protecting Violent Nazis for the purpose of committing war crimes in Ukraine and instigating Nazi movements in the US during an election year as part of a color revolution to keep President Trump out of the White House by blaming @realDonaldTrump for Nazi and White Supremacist movements in the US.

    Biden is behind these Nazis and domestic terrorists. His administration and his FBI/ CIA is protecting them and sending them to Ukraine.

    .

    'First Jill Biden, now Whoopi has Covid.' ........... ............oh really

    of course the whole ridiculous covid charade begins with the fake tests - (and creating as big a death toll as possible with various tricks and fraudulent death certificates...)

    but re the pcr test now they are starting to ramp it all up again....


    inventor of the PCR test Kary Mullis explains it all on this link...

    his main point being that 'with PCR if you do it well you can find almost anything in anybody...'

    'luckily' for the pushers of the Covid Agenda... Kary Mullis conveniently died in August 2019 just before the whole Fake Pandemic started - mmmmm - imagine if he hadn't conveniently died - he would have been everywhere talking about it -

    I'm repeating what we already know but it's clear that the PCR test results can be manipulated and the number of so called cases raised when 'necessary'..... but they have to get people to get tested first so they can do the manipulating...

    what a palaver

    Considering it's not really Biden anyway, and we are watching a show put on by Cheyenne Mountain Productions, maybe the coming lockdown is for public safety while the roundup is done.

    I'm not selling hopium, it's for personal use, . . . . honest.

    From The Moon of Alabama, today. (A good summary of the current situation. It does seem impossible he could run.)
    More Voices Call on Biden to Withdraw from the 2024 Race

    The Democrats have a Biden problem:
    I do not know who is supposed to manage Biden's public relations but whoever that is is doing a bad job. The strategists for the Democratic Party and those concerned with winning elections should seriously think about replacing Biden with someone who is better at handling himself.
    It is going to get worse:
    Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday directed top congressional Republicans to open an impeachment inquiry into President Biden, reversing his previous stance that such an investigation should be initiated only with a vote of the House. In doing so, Mr. McCarthy leveled a series of accusations against Mr. Biden that he said amounted to a “picture of a culture of corruption” and warranted the House using its most potent investigative tool to try to make the case for removing the president.
    The impeachment proceedings, like those against Donald Trump, are mostly a public relation gimmick. But they are also likely to show that the Biden family business is as corrupt as they come.

    The British establishment, largely on the Democrats side, is clearly concerned.

    The Economist predicts that:

    Hunter Biden’s woes, and a new impeachment saga, will go on and on
    Yet although Mr Comer’s investigation is failing to prove the existence of what Donald Trump calls the “Biden crime family”, congressional inquiries will now multiply.
    ...
    Indeed, the younger Mr Biden’s legal problems are intensifying. On September 6th prosecutors serving under David Weiss, the special counsel investigating Hunter, announced that they expect an indictment by the end of the month. The president’s son is likely to be charged with not paying taxes and lying on a form when buying a gun at a time when he was addicted to crack cocaine. A plea deal that would have kept him out of jail on those charges fell apart in July. And other, more damaging charges—such as lobbying for a foreign government without registering—have not been ruled out. None of that implicates the president. Yet he may suffer for it nonetheless. According to a CNN poll, three-fifths of Americans think Mr Biden was involved in his son’s business. Pump out enough smoke and you might create fire.
    The CIA's influence peddler and Washington Post columnist David Ignatius is the latest establishment voice to warn of a likely defeat of Biden should he decide to keep running:

    President Biden should not run again in 2024

    Like the Economist writers Ignatius is as friendly to Democrats as they come. The CIA and FBI had both intervened after the election of Donald Trump. They launched Russiagate, a series of fake stories, to hamper Trump's ability to govern and to get Biden elected. That its senior management has commissioned Ignatius to call on Biden to give up can be understood as a warning.

    Ignatius names two points that put Biden's reelection into jeopardy:
    Biden would carry two big liabilities into a 2024 campaign. He would be 82 when he began a second term. According to a recent Associated Press-NORC poll, 77 percent of the public, including 69 percent of Democrats, think he’s too old to be effective for four more years. Biden’s age isn’t just a Fox News trope; it’s been the subject of dinner-table conversations across America this summer.
    Because of their concerns about Biden’s age, voters would sensibly focus on his presumptive running mate, Harris. She is less popular than Biden, with a 39.5 percent approval rating, according to polling website FiveThirtyEight. Harris has many laudable qualities, but the simple fact is that she has failed to gain traction in the country or even within her own party.
    Biden at least should get rid of Harris who is a bit of a millstone to popularity:
    Biden could encourage a more open vice-presidential selection process that could produce a stronger running mate.
    Ignatius goes on to ask Biden to step down and to immediately announce that he will not be available for another round:
    Biden has never been good at saying no. He should have resisted the choice of Harris, who was a colleague of his beloved son Beau when they were both state attorneys general. He should have blocked then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, which has done considerable damage to the island’s security. He should have stopped his son Hunter from joining the board of a Ukrainian gas company and representing companies in China — and he certainly should have resisted Hunter’s attempts to impress clients by getting Dad on the phone. Biden has another chance to say no — to himself, this time — by withdrawing from the 2024 race. It might not be in character for Biden, but it would be a wise choice for the country.
    I doubt that Joe Biden, or the people around him, will follow that advice. They are too full of themselves to voluntarily make room for others. It will require more intervention, probably from former president Obama, to convince Biden to give up.

    Or someone could create some 'medical emergency'. That should not be too difficult given Biden's general condition and age.

    Anyway. If the Democrats want to keep the presidency, something needs to be done.
