British journalist shows how the CIA played a ‘direct’ role in the creation of Google. Probably only part of the story. Originally we were told, one of the Google founders, I think it was Brin, had the idea to rank search results by how many links to a page existed on the internet. He mentioned it to some private sector moneybags who gave him funding, and he was off and running. Of course now, given how we know things work, the idea was probably cooked up in a basement in Langley, it was given to operations to execute, they found some geek they had compromising intel on from an underaged honeypot they ran against him in high school or college, ie Brin, and he was told, “this is the script, our engineers will take care of the technical stuff, we just need you to make it look like it is civilian-created.”

Nearly half of US murders going unsolved. I hate to say it but that is kind of what it would look like if a covert-intel op, taking over the country, were to begin a Stalin-esque purge. I would love to see how many of the unsolved ones had Postal Service Trucks of Death outside their homes. And of course you know all of the murders were documented in exquisite detail.

Also, the guy suing said the former CIA-guy appeared to know who he was talking to on the phone, as if he was under some sort of monitoring. Also a flashback to Revolver covering when they stabbed Kyle Rittenhouse in the back and called anyone who supported him part of a “repugnant” group of people in a NY Times interview.

Video of some dude trying to strangle a disabled guy, interrupted by two surveillance dudes. Looks like central America. What says to me they are surveillance is the phones, combined with the fact they are not actually getting involved, or interacting with the victim, or each other. They kind-of come in, look around, are working together, but never acknowledge each other, and then take off without actually doing anything or saying anything to each other, as if nothing unusual just happened. If that were two normal people, they would look at each other, comment at each other is shock, ask the victim if he was OK, even call Police. It is like a global force, in every Western nation, as well as China and at least most Asian nations, probably the Middle East as well, and almost always under the same ultimate command structure, which spans across nations.

A California-based law firm has accused Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs, Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, Runbeck Election Services, and a slew of other election officials, mayors, judges, city councilman, and county supervisors in the state of receiving bribes from the Sinaloa cartel via deeds of trust and phony mortgages in AZ senate investigation. The counterpoint is here at Conservative Treehouse, which points out the people making the accusations are in a child custody dispute with one of the people they accuse of doing the paperwork for the Cartels, so it is not some regular person who stumbled on a plot, but rather the guy who was married to the girl saying the girl is bribing politicians and laundering money for the Cartels, as they undergo a messy divorce. Then again, why has Hobbs not come out and vigorously denied this, given it is being reported everywhere, and if it was fake, she could use that to tar the entire right wing media machine?

To be fair there’s not exclusively bolties in there, it’s about 50/50 on a quick count. A handful of ARs, quite a few SKS, lots of revolvers (same idea as the bolties I’m guessing, simple to operate and reliable actions with integral casing retention for wet works) a good number of semi auto handguns, some shotguns, etc.

Seems more like they have a tool for every job, with lots of general purpose revolvers and bolties.

Obviously, this is one of the many stash houses the feds set up for their army of military-aged illegal male migrants.
Mixed-lot of second-rate weapons, making for easy clean up by the special forces, after the imported muds murder whatever percentage of their assigned civilian targets. The special forces will then account for any of you red and blue list members not liquidated by the shit-hole brigade. Then the whole thing will be blamed on “terrorists.”
What we cannot know for sure is the number of Chinese containers, filled with state-of-the-art art infantry weapons and gear, that have been hidden away in the 3000 counties in mainland America. But don’t worry, they’re here. Why wouldn’t they be? Prove me wrong.

As I have stated previously the ELITE ASHKENAZI WHITE JEWS ARE AGENTS OF IZRAEL. THEY HAVE NO LOYALTY TO AMERICA OR AMERICANS.

The high murder rates in Chicago, Baltimore, and cities across America ARE NOT BLACK ON BLACK. They are death squads set up by Mossad-Izrael who infiltrated all major police departments across North America.

With control of the media and homicide investigations – they murder black men and boys by the thousands using media to say it is “black-on-black crime”.

THEY DID THE SAME IN THE SOVIET UNION. They used the Secret Police to commit mass murder. It is not a stretch that they are doing similar to the White Goyims which they view as no different from blacks.

About 15 or so years ago, a friend of mine had a deputy sheriff move into the house next to his. In discussions about the trouble the deputy had seen and been involved with, the deputy informed my friend that our area was still in pretty good shape, and noted that the LA metro and county area had 70k unsolved homicides on the books. Of course this accumulated over several decades but just think about that. That was 15 years ago. These are things you don’t really hear about.

ACLU Rushes To Defend TikTok In The US
On Twitter, the Civil Liberties group wrote, “A ban on TikTok would violate the First Amendment rights of millions of Americans who use the app to express themselves daily.” The group went on to urge Americans to write their lawmakers, “and call on them to fight against censorship and support our constitutional right to express ourselves.”

Yet, the ACLU was silent when Trump was banned from Twitter; silent when hundreds of thousands of people were banned from Twitter and other social media for “wrong think;” and the silence is deafing at the complete silencing of Scott Adams. I remember Trump being forced to reinstate a troll on his Twitter account for it would be a violation of teh troll’s First Amendment rights.

I’m suspicious of this. The article mainly lists problems with the rail system and the electricity system. These problems exist, but they are not signs the country will “collapse” since these have been issues for literally decades.

The Apartheid era government dismantled the entire intercity passenger rail network and much of the freight network, because at the time (the 1960s), everyone “knew” the future lay with auto travel. There was a failed attempt to dismantle intercity passenger rail in the United States, but much of the developing world went further and junked it completely. The problems with electricity came under ANC rule, but surfaced fairly early. I remember reading almost identical articles about this in the 00s.

The ANC is corrupt and South Africa is f—ed, but probably not worse than other places.

You should do it anyway. Putting the word out is why you’re running this blog, after all. If he ignores you, well, that’s pretty much the default whenever you try to tell someone, isn’t it? It’s not like being ignored is going to ruin your week.

I’d create a free Protonmail account if you don’t already have one, and contact him through that. It would stay on the same server rack. All normal Simple Mail Transport Protocol mail goes through the NAPs, which can filter out mail from people they wish to suppress. That’s part of the “national security infrastructure” nominally run by the NSA, which partially funds the NAPs.

> bolt-action rifles

There are many lists of “most popular hunting cartridges in the US.” They vary in ranking, but mostly contain the same cartridges. Here’s a generic one snagged from the web:

Most Common Bolt-Action Rifle Cartridges (By rifle chambering options)
This method of determining what’s most popular is to look at about 60 different models of rifles, and see what percentage of the rifles have each chambering as an option.
308 Winchester
6.5 Creedmoor
300 Winchester Magnum
30-06 Springfield
243 Winchester
270 Winchester
7mm-08 Remington
7mm Rem Mag
22-250
300 WSM
6.5 PRC
220 Swift

About half of them would punch right through military and police body armor. American sportsmen really hate to track wounded game through the woods, and generally subscribe to the “overkill” concept. Military armor is *just* stout enough to stop mil-spec 7.62×51 (.308 Winchester) and 7.62x54R (what the Russians and Chinese use as a “heavy” caliber). It’s heavy, hot, and impedes mobility, and nobody is going to be shooting anything hotter at them. Police armor generally apes military stuff.

Also note about half the “not enough cowbell” calibers could probably still punch through if they’re using Happy Green Environmentally Safe solid-copper ammunition, which is an option in some calibers, since several states have been trying to outlaw lead-core bullets. They’re nonstandard bullets and loadings, though, and there’s not enough out there, proportionally, to consider them yet.

Also, unlike military and police, who are basically trained to “shoot where the armor might be”, most hunters would simply shoot them somewhere else.

I’m always on the fence about armor as just some guy. Obviously without a significant medic and surgeon infrastructure to back you up even minor injuries can be bad news, but realistically is it going to pay off for the average person?

My thoughts are that if you’re going to wear armor, go level 4 or just skip it entirely. The weight and mobility restrictions aren’t worth it if you can get zipped by spicy 5.56mm loads. And if that’s the case, is 7+ lbs a plate worth the trade off? Especially when headshots and pelvis shots are not hard to achieve as you mention…

Feedback welcomed. It’s mildly reassuring that it’s not a one-stop fix for our enemies to get super armor, but I wish it were more obviously beneficial for my own sake.

Police body armor worn by patrol and traffic (and issued to detectives) will not stop rifle rounds. There is only one ceramic shock plate, worn over the sternum (unless an individual officer makes modifications, which 99% do not). The armpit area – which is exposed to the suspect when using the Weaver stance — is hardly covered at all. The vest comes down to a couple inches above the belly button.

Armor protects from lung and heart shots almost exclusively, any other protection is a secondary benefit. This is because these hits can often be instantly incapacitating, where as gut shots or flesh wounds can be fought through for some period of time.

The go-to tactic for armored enemies is “Hips and Lips;” pelvis shots primarily (center-mass size for easier hits, just a little lower) and head shots where you can.

They make pelvic flap armor but almost no one I’ve ever seen runs it, and it would still present the opportunity for angled entry through the hips much like the armpit you mentioned. Face armor is all gimmick crap.

4 hour lifespan when a new recruit arrives in Bakhmut. The question I have is, why aren’t more recruiters getting killed? Seems like you’re going to die anyway, why not take out a regime enforcer with you?

The entire purpose of this war from Zelensky Regime perspective is to KILL OFF AS MANY MALE GOYIMS AS POSSIBLE.

WHITE JEWS ARE PROFITING WHILE WHITE GOYIMS ARE BEING MASS EXTERMINATED. AND SOMEONE SAID “BLACKS ARE EASILY MANIPULATED.”

FROM THE WHITE JEW PERSPECTIVE … ALL GOYIMS ARE STUPID REGARDLESS OF RACE.

Marjorie Taylor Greene attacked at restaurant: ‘They turned into demons.’

She’s right. The people that assaulted Greene and staff are not democrat or republican. They are not independent. They are not liberal or conservative. They are the rulers of the darkness of this world (Eph 6:12). They are no more interested in the true, noble, right, pure, lovely or admirable than is their “father”: the accuser, the father of lies and lord of the flies.

Actor Tom Sizemore’s representative reported that his doctors have “informed his family that there is no further hope and have recommended end-of-life decision” after he suffered a brain aneurysm last week in Los Angeles. Probably vaxxed, and the immune response eroded the artery. He was good in Enemy of the State.

He was excellent in Enemy of the State. Also in Heat and Black Hawk Down. He made a lot of poor decisions in his life. It’s unfortunate.

For the ones that seek or lust after fame, it can be their horribly long foreshadowing of Hell. Hell on earth and then hell in Hell (though deathbed conversions have saved countless from eternal damnation).

There really are vampires lurking in the shadows, not of the Bela Lugosi ilk, but leeches that are eager to suck the life right out of anyone who can become their money train.

From Wikipedia:

Sizemore was born in Detroit, Michigan. His mother, Judith (née Schannault), was a member of the city of Detroit ombudsman staff, and his father, Thomas Edward Sizemore Sr., was a lawyer and philosophy professor. He was raised Roman Catholic”

So what do we have here? A likely very intelligent person with leadership capability. The fact that his mom was a political person and he was raised Catholic points to cabal having influence. But you need to understand one very important thing about cabal: they’ll eat up and destroy anyone that the view as a threat.

So, turn him into an actor, hook him up with the likes of Heidi Fleiss (obvious cabal figure) and addict him to drugs. They elevated their own but also put a ceiling in place.

Re: Sizemore, a very talented actor. Getting addicted to drugs as an adolescent will change your life and soul trajectory. He may have wondered how much of who he was supposed to have become was taken from him because of that. Recovery from addiction is a life-long battle that must invite Grace to play a role in self-forgiveness and healing. While a lot of his personal life was a mess, we perhaps must acknowledge mercifully that he nevertheless fought that darkness the whole way and accomplished much in spite of it. In addition to Enemy of the State, his performance opposite Denzel Washington in Carl Franklin’s Devil in a Blue Dress is simply top drawer. Better to be an outstanding supporting actor than a moderately talented star. God welcome Your broken child Home.

Attorneys for a man shot and injured by Kyle Rittenhouse during a protest in 2020 are asking a federal judge to give them more time to serve Rittenhouse with a civil lawsuit, alleging that he is purposefully trying to evade them.

The judge will give it to them. Being served is something that judges are adamant about happening. You can come in and defend yourself and get it thrown out quickly, but they expect you to come in. Also, since it is a federal judge, he will eventually send US Marshals after Kyle to serve him the papers.

Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman remains in the hospital to receive treatment for clinical depression but is staying up to date on Senate business, his communications director Joe Calvello said in a statement Monday.

His wife and kids, by the way, aren’t even in the country while he is being treated for “clinical depression.”

I think there is something to the comment from yesterday perhaps: Hillary was actually the “brains” the Clinton Administration; Bill was the frontman. “Dr.” Jill is the driver of the Biden train; Grandpa Joe is the frontman. John Fetterman has been a tool for the party; the wife, who by the way is brutal – go to Niagra Falls then Canada while hubby was and is of questionable health – is the implementer.

> California says it can no longer afford to give funding for Covid testing and vaccinations for migrants.

Uh, the Feral Gummit is paying for that, not the People’s Democratic Republic of California.

As for “migrants”, the CDC’s web page says they have to give the vaxx to anyone who asks for it, even if they refuse to identify themselves. (it doesn’t say what they put on their vaxx card, though)

“NY Dems sweating “extinction-level events” if Gov Hochul’s budget proposals go through. ”

I don’t doubt that the Donks have gone completely insane, but the linked to article is probably BS. I stopped reading halfway through when I caught them in a cheap propaganda trick.

The writer claimed that New York City is dead. To illustrated this, the writer posted a photo of Park Avenue at 7 AM taken by their brother, which showed two blocks with no one there.

I used to live in Manhattan, in fact not that far from when the photo was taken. The photo did actually show two blocks of Park Avenue, and the sun was rising, so it probably was around 7 AM. The problem is that 7 AM is really when New York City starts moving. Business hours skew a little later than in the rest of the country, so low level employees start their commutes between 6 AM and 7 AM, with most commutes starting some time after 7 AM. I’ve been out and about at 7 AM, and the only things open are a few 24 hour delis. That part of Park Avenue is lined only with office buildings, and almost no retail, so its always deserted of pedestrian traffic except during lunch hours and when office workers arrive or leave their offices.

I was in Manhattan myself a few months ago, and was surprised that everything seemed like it was back to 2019, except for some masked people waking around. It was like the past three years have been memory holed. That is more interesting than anything the article was claiming.

“Nearly half of US murders going unsolved. ”

For well over a decade, I have held the opinion that death squads have been operating within the United States.

There is little evidence of this, but not no evidence of this, since once and a while “accidents” and “suicides” of what are obviously hits on investigative journalists and enemies of the Clintons get reported. But I though it was more widespread. If you think about it, if death squads operate in Latin America, and American politics is more like Latin American politics than West European politics, why not in the USA? With the large migration from Latin America, some of the same people doing this there are almost certainly here. There is also the conversion of what used to be the American left into a shill for the CIA and corporations, which imply death squads killing or threatening anyone who didn’t get with the program.

So you have the surveillance monitoring and disrupting the career paths of threatening people, but I think the really talented dissidents just get killed.

Just as a data point. In the 17th century a chap named Samuel Pypes wrote his diary. You can or should be able to get it now.
He made his success from running the Royal Navy ship yards in Greenwich.
In his writing he talked about the Huguenots. The so called
first refugees to England.
Came from France as there was the religious persecution of that place and time.
He formulated a concept of “four generations to become and Englishman”
It’s a long time since I read it but in brief.
First generation arrive. Second gen learn the language. Third start eating the local food and the fourth marry the local natives.
I may have that wrong but I think you get the jist.
It’s an interesting read. He goes into his affairs with women, the toilet and daily living as well as the hierarchical elements of his position in society.
What with the re-editing of books today. Perhaps back then too. It would be worth getting an older version of the diaries if you can.

The article about Russian battlefield operations mentions aviation several times. What I don’t know is the difference between operational/tactical aviation and army aviation. Maybe fixed wing versus rotary wing aircraft? If the Russians are sending helicopters to do ground attack, then the Ukrainian air defences must be completely done for, no manpads or radar guided large caliber AAA.

Its an r conspiracy post, so take it for what its worth:

https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/11dtwvq/young_new_leader_in_el_salvador_nayib_bukele_has/

But the claim is that the new President of El Salvador pledged to get their criminal gang problem under control, and he succeeded quickly by, well, just arresting the members of the criminal gangs. It meant arresting over 60,000 people and maybe summary executions, but the point is that the authorities must have already known who these people were and where they could be found.

As I understand it, the tactics used were to surround problem areas in San Salvador with army infantry, and then send in elite police “Extraction Teams” to take out the trash. It’s pretty easy to figure out where “problem areas” are located, and it’s even more helpful when “problem people” self-identify by tattooing that blue shit all over their faces.
