One of the greatest of the great ones passes:
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, a leading conservative voice on the high court, has died at the age of 79, a government source and a family friend told CNN on Saturday.
Scalia died in his sleep during a visit to Texas.
A government official said Scalia went to bed Friday night and told friends he wasn’t feeling well. Saturday morning, he didn’t get up for breakfast. And the group he was with for a hunting trip left without him.
Someone at the ranch went in to check on him and found him unresponsive
The U.S. Marshals Service is not investigating Scalia’s death, an official told CNN. They are helping to arrange for his body to be returned.
They were present because marshals sometimes help supplement security for traveling justices.
It is likely he passed of natural causes. His face and neck showed signs of the inflammatory process the Chinese call “dampness,” unless I am mistaken, and that does seem to produce heart attacks when combined with minor stresses like low grade infections.
That said, there is no evidence it was natural, which makes every media outlet’s insistence that it was by natural causes very bothersome. Stick to the facts, and be honest, or we begin to enter the realm where thou doth protest too much. Add to that the fact that according to this article, nobody at this point seems inclined to investigate the death of one of the most important men in our government, and among the most important men in support of freedom.
That said, in today’s world I would rule nothing out. One problem with confronting the type of surveillance/intelligence operations being described by many citizens today, is that there is only one limit on the possible threats you face – namely the operational budget. And there is another downside.
The machinery which performs such operations exists where two factors meet – today’s massive increase in funding for the governmental machinery of domestic surveillance/intelligence, and the tendency of such domestic intel agencies to try and hide much of such machinery from public sight by privatizing it, and then contracting out specific operations to those private sector entities.
Because of that, the agencies have plausible deniability about their intel capabilities, documents for such operations are neither created nor maintained in house and are beyond the reach of any attempts at agency oversight, and the machinery itself is more easily concealed from any potential targets. Because of that, there exists a massive private sector surveillance/intelligence infrastructure which both, meets the most rigorous standards of the most elite domestic government LE Intel agencies, and which exists within the private sector, presumably free to subcontract its excess operational capacity out to any billionaire with sufficient cash to afford it. This gives the contracting agency access to an even more well funded and capable force, even more financially fueled by additional side jobs, while allowing the private sector bosses running the privatized companies increased profits and power above and beyond what is earned through government contracts.
If you one day confront such an operation, you will have to adapt your own behavior, letting go of many behaviors you presently think nothing of.
As an example, suppose you periodically pick up a pizza from a local pizzeria. Surveillance, the first phase in attack planning, will have identified that pattern of behavior, and it will be highlighted in your file. The surveillance guys don’t care, it is just their procedure. But when the file is passed to George Soros, the private sector intel guy he has hired to get rid of you will then see the clear vulnerability. All he has to do is approach one worker at the pizzeria, and offer him $10,000 cash to quit. Concurrent with that, he has his own operator walk into the pizzeria, just by chance, and ask if they might be hiring. What a coincidence.
Now his operator has access to your food supply – and you have no idea. The only limit preventing that move, is budgetary constraint, which increasingly does not apply in that world.
Surveillance, monitoring your phones, listening in your house, and with ears in your car while you are mobile, now hears you call the pizzeria to order a pie. Guess who is making it, and can sprinkle enough tri-iodo-thyronine to blow out your heart into it. On the autopsy, all that registers is a simple heart attack, and since nobody runs a thyroid panel (even on healthy people complaining of non-specific illness), nobody ever knows why your heart blew out. Even in a case like Breitbart, where his face was described as “disturbingly red” right after drinking wine at a bar, something which instantly made me think thyrotoxic storm due to a pinhead’s worth of water soluble T3 in his wine glass, nobody runs a thyroid panel.
I think of this a lot. Rush had his non-cardiac episode while on vacation at a hotel in Hawaii. Breitbart was hit with his fatal episode right after being in the bar. Now we lose Scalia while he was mobile and on vacation, and not in full control of his food supply. It is all easily coincidence. But as time goes on, and our government continues on its present path, it may eventually cease to be coincidence.
If you care at all about politics, you’d be wise to at least begin thinking in these terms now.
Someday I suspect it may not be impossible for your life to depend upon it.

Oh please. The man was 79 years old.
Sad day for liberty.
Texas Art. 49.04 requires an inquest anytime someone dies while not being attended by a physician. There’s no way out of an autopsy. The question is how thorough the autopsy is. (When my grandmother died in hospice at home about a decade ago, there was a long argument with the ME about the definition of “attended by a physician.” They finally agreed that when your physician sends you home to die, which is what hospice is, he is still “attending.”)

To me the reality of conspiracy conjecture has always been a question of human nature…would you if you could?For self-serving expediency most would say absolutely! The god of mammon is a very powerful, beckoning force!
The circumstances with Scalia seem to me to be more and more suspect. We will see if the GOP can be bought off or if they will earn their pay and stripes…for once.
