Here are some news stories that might be of interest. Most articles will be more or less summarized in the headline. You can skim the headlines and summaries, and click the links if they are of interest. Keep in mind, many of these reports are products of the Fake News, so although they will be what people are hearing and talking about, there is no guarantee any one of them is necessarily correct, and we have had cases of outright lies make it onto these pages, especially about President Trump.

Senate intel leaders say the mystery ‘Havana syndrome’ attacks on US officials are increasing. The only thing new at the article is the instances of it being used are increasing in number. They are probably increasing production of the units, with an eye to rolling them out at the neighborhood level, since they can be deployed without any ability to investigate or counter them. What is interesting is DC has a ton of covert scanners with capabilities similar to BackScatter X-ray, which can see right through clothes. Carry an MP5-K under your jacket in a shoulder rig as you walk around on the street in DC, and I would assume even if you are not printing at all, you are quickly going to attract a lot of covert attention looking to figure out what your deal is. Even with all of that elite tech around DC, it appears people were moving through there and zapping people with this device while on the move, and they are still not able to find them or do anything about it. In the end, they were reduced to fencing in the entire Capitol and funneling everyone through controlled access points, where they can be scrutinized, and even trapped inside the Capitol zone if an attack happens, which US forces try to find the perpetrator and their device.
On Twitter, a sign of the election fraud, given not this much has changed – In 2020, Donald Trump only carried #TX06 by three points. In last night’s special election for the seat, Republican candidates substantially outperformed that margin, carrying the seat by 24.7% and securing a Republican vs. Republican runoff.
An Intelligence surveillance aircraft has been circling the AZ audit location and collecting information on American citizens working for election integrity. Oddly enough a lot of times you can search a tail number of something flying over you low and slow and come up with a twitter hashtag with somebody outing a plane as running surveillance on them or their areas. My guess is Cabal is identifying everyone who goes in there, assigning their local coverage teams to put them all in fishbowls, and looking for anybody they can turn screws on and get them to corrupt the process.
Cindy McCain calls continued probes into election outcome ‘ludicrous’ after Trump ranted at Mar-a-Lago that Arizona will be the first state to overturn the results. When I see this, I immediately think of zersetzung. You will get this a lot in domestic surveillance if you try to expose it before you gather enough evidence of a sufficient quality. They will relish trying to make you look like you are crazy, unless you amass evidence which forces people to confront the reality of the situation, and would make them look weird to deny it. It is weird to see people who know something secret – something awful they should want to expose and destroy – and they just lie to protect it and keep it going. It is as if Cindy never even thinks, maybe one day her daughter will tell the wrong person the wrong thing and end up on the receiving end of a fuck-over by the machine. Whenever you see something like this, you can feel how Cindy is going to wake up in a very, very nasty place after she passes, and she will be spending a long, long time there. It is even stranger she has no desire to try and avert that outcome.

Amazon is doing a four part documentary on the kidnapping and murder of DEA agent Kiki Camarena. TLDR; Kiki was a sworn federal law enforcement officer with the DEA working south of the border. He began to uncover that high level intel officials were running drugs up, and maybe were running the cartels. He was kidnapped, possibly by CIA itself, or by the cartels with the help of CIA, and according to legend, CIA ran in their top interrogator/torturer to the Cartel safe house were Kiki was, he did a full torture-interrogation to find out if anyone else in DEA knew what Kiki had discovered, and then Kiki was left with the Cartel to be disposed of. This video indicates that they are releasing this because they are going to try and control the narrative, tying this intel/cartel linkage around the neck of Iran Contra, and Reagan’s administration, and de-emphasize the linkage between CIA and the drug trade. Whatever the backstory, that they are even discussing Kiki’s story feels significant, as if revelations may come out in the future.

Seattle’s socialist councilmembers collectively worth over $3.5 million. The kind of money you see really “successful” people making almost always flows as cash from Cabal’s raiding of the treasury into the pockets of those who help them raid the treasury. It is ironic that I think those who honestly make products people want, and exchange value honestly for them in volitional exchanges of value, have to work their asses off to scrape together a living salary. But help Cabal rip of the nation, and you can make $75,000 for filming a 30 minute GoPro video.
In Spain, stating the fact that migrants get more money than retirees is now a “hate crime.” That is not how corruption works. You do not bring in total strangers and give them free money for nothing. Intelligence operations are not that wasteful. Those migrants were assets of Cabal’s intelligence service overseas in their home countries, and Cabal brought them home and gave them a stipend in return for them joining the domestic networks of spooks and surveillants and going to work against the populace. Even if they roll out the martial law and military tribunals, it is still difficult to visualize a future path which does not involve a decent sized civil war.

Fertility expert blasts celebrity mothers in their 40s who ‘mislead’ women that getting pregnant in later life is easy though many have little problem having babies after 35. That is Cabal societal programming, to make non-Cabal females willingly self-sterilize themselves. I wouldn’t be surprised Cabal tells its high profile celebrity assets they cannot have children early, and then it publicizes the ones who succeed after 40 after massive, expensive medical interventions, just to seed this idea in young girl’s heads that anyone can do that.

Susan Collins was ‘appalled’ by the booing and censure vote of Mitt Romney. The threat of violence by an angry mob is all that can constrain the traitors. The problem is our mob is completely under control of the domestic coverage, even though the populace is entirely oblivious to that fact. If I had to choose, between us having real elections, with total surveillance coverage of the population, or we get fake elections like now, but the entire population is out there, unwatched, with no surveillance, and the elected officials know anyone could get to them at any moment, I would take the latter. Even honest elections could be populated with Cabal agents, making a choice into no choice. But even the most corrupt individuals, elected in totally fraudulent elections, would try to align at least somewhat with the will of the people if all they saw out their window was a heavily armed populace, capable of anything, cloaked in the black of night, and they had no idea what they were up to. You cannot have both domestic surveillance, and a free society with rule of the people. It is one or the other. There is no Constitution if you have domestic surveillance.

“Senate intel leaders say the mystery ‘Havana syndrome’ attacks on US officials are increasing.”
That’s probably the most interesting news of the last couple weeks. Not Bluebeam tictacs or Ukraine BS. No, a recognized EMF attack on Americans by a secret group that so far has not been caught and probably isn’t even being sought by law enforcement. And confirmed now by numerous US senators.
My opinion is that this is a warning from establishment Cabal to young and reckless Cabal to tone down the EMF antics before they become a liability. And we know what will happen to liabilities, Go directly to Hell, do not pass Ho’s, do not collect the paydays.

Global censorship, it really is happening. I’d yell the Bible at people but at this point if you don’t believe that bad stuff at the end of the Bible is going to happen you’re just a tard.
>if you don’t believe that bad stuff at the end of the Bible is going to happen
Good stuff you mean?
The bad stuff comes first, then the good stuff comes at the end.
Yes, it ultimately really is all Good. But for the wicked the tribulation will be very awful.
There will be a season of oppression of the faithful as well preceding the tribulation. So it will not be easy for anyone, but everything that is happening now we were promised. Hopefully this can strengthen people’s testimony of Jesus Christ’s promise, of salvation and everlasting life.
Tribulation is for the saints, 42 months.
The beast was given a mouth to speak arrogant and blasphemous words, and authority to act for 42 months. 6And the beast opened its mouth to speak blasphemies against God and to slander His name and His tabernacle—those who dwell in heaven.
7Then the beast was permitted to wage war against the saints and to conquer them, and it was given authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.
I can do 42 months of blasphemy standing on my head.

“Warren Buffet says, “We are seeing substantial inflation.” ‘The Costs Are Up, Up, Up. We’re Seeing Substantial Inflation’”
Unless you are buying property, your best bet is gold and silver. I would highly recommend it as a hedge. You really haven’t much time.
What is your take on how easy it is to move between cash and gold or silver, and how much you lose when selling back to get out?
And why not gun parts? It seems like Gold may be 1700 per oz, but you have to pay 2,000 now to get any due to the practical shortage. wouldn’t AR uppers be superior?
Speaking of gun parts, buy complete parts kits for all your guns. Springs, pins, trigger group, gas cylinder and operating rod, bolt and bolt carrier, everything. Someday you’ll be glad you did.
I support gold and silver as an insurance policy against hyperinflation. AR uppers (or glock parts or handloading supplies) are very valuable, as are specialized machines and machine parts. The issue with specialized items is that they aren’t a commodity so they aren’t commonly exchanged in a marketplace. As an example let the US go the way of Detroit and farmers markets will be taking silver at normal exchange rates, many of them would also trade weapons parts but there could be inefficiencies due to barter.
Yes, you can lose percentages going back and forth between gold/silver and cash, but you would lose just as much on average trading the LR308 upper. The gold and silver IS money, just like the cash is. The upper isn’t. Additionally the reason gold and silver are above their spot price is because there is a premium (and that premium increases as a shortage grows). This is partly because the value of gold and silver is being manipulated and so the premium is partly reflecting actual market prices (in the real day to day market- which the spot prices are not reflecting). Many supplies of gold and silver are also in coin form, and these coins have some additional numismatic value.
Ideally you diversify. Also, weapons/machines can age, just like cars. Inspecting AR uppers/barrels to make sure they are “new” or “functional” is a skill (requiring tools) that farmer bob and the merchants at a market may not possess. It would also be time consuming, whereas gold and silver would just be another coin to immediately trade, and all the farmers do is weigh the coins. If it’s an environment where weapons parts can be traded, then gold and silver would be superior as a medium of exchange. You would have to vacuum seal metal uppers so make sure they don’t corrode (because you may lose them in a terrible boating accident). So your uppers could just be sitting somewhere losing a little value each day, while the gold and silver just stays the same.
Survivalist wise, land and store able food/water are your best bets. Firearms and support stuff comes next (because it may not be safe enough to trade). This will drive up weapons and ammo prices- to a degree, but it may not matter, mostly because you won’t have “customers” to trade with if things are too dangerous. This is an individual choice for everyone to make, what fraction of wealth you put into each type of resource. But since we are talking hyperinflation, and probably only a little bit of yugoslavia type stuff, gold and silver would be good first bets. Full on broiling balkanization and civil war/invasion would probably require massive food stores, access to fresh water, stored medical equipment, and you would use gold and silver to get trade going once you are in a more homogeneous area. You would need robust weapons caches in either scenario, more so in the later. The other survivalist situation is a massive disaster (supervolcano, nuclear war, lethal bio). Then even land won’t matter, you need a bunker, water and a ton of food. And you would need lots of guns and ammo. If you are starving your gold, silver and uppers won’t matter. If you are in extremely violent situations you are also using up weapons parts (you need lubricant for them too- so store gun oils etc.) and you are likely giving away weapons/ammo to friendlies so they can stay in the fight (and keep you alive as well). That all assumes there are supplies of ammo. If there is no ammo, the uppers will be worth less than you likely paid for them.
So uppers and related goods may literally be PRICELESS, in other words, too expensive to trade, with too much support structure needed. And you could very well end up giving them away. The gold and silver you will be able to part with. Each situation will of course be different, but gold and silver handle a larger range of possible needs. Keep in mind, if it’s end of days type stuff, none of it matters, only family (and the food to feed them) and your Bible and your faith.
FWIW, for those considering AU and/or HG in a SHTF situation …
I’m a biiiiig fan of US junk silver. should things degrade to a hardass or barter system, just about everyone on Earth knows teh silver content of a pre-64 yankee dime, quarter, etc. as an added bonus, dealer premiums for junk silver are usually a good deal less than for bullion / collecter quality coins. of course, boomsticks are nice too, since there’s always’s that “I’ll use my guns to take your silver!” guy ….
jawohl
Yup. He can invest in gold and silver, I’m investing in ammo, antibiotics and seeds.
That’s good too. Resource Production > Resource storage. And value storage > value loss.
If you can make ammo and food that’s already huge. I don’t know how a small op could make smokeless powder though, which pretty much limits powder production to black powder (and thusly black powder guns).
Pressing brass, or even casting it would be useful. Same with copper and lead. And AC had a good link to primers a while back, although I don’t think you need those with black powder cartridges and guns.
Still have to diversify though. I can’t imagine we all go Amish, although it might be a good idea to do some of that.
This Utah guy describes the lost art of arms production and self reliance.
https://vimeo.com/254248552
Yeah, I inherited a bunch of muzzle loaders. I need to lay in a couple of powder kegs, a few pounds of lead and a stockpile of primers. (Maybe invest in a flintlock, I’ve shot one before.)
Of course, being a Native Texan, I really want one of the new Colt Walker 1847 in cap and ball. And to make it my daily wear.
“Tiffany is selling men’s engagement rings for the first time. Reversal of sex-specific dimorphic traits associated with absolute peak r?”
Yes and No. This is probably mostly social engineering. Everything I have seen or heard of shows that the trad marriage trends have not significantly changed. Men still ask Women to marry them, and give them a ring. Marriage rates may be declining, but I have never seen or heard of a woman proposing to a man.
Unless there are a massively increasing number of gays or trans getting “married” I would have to think that Tiffany’s is pushing this to normalize high r, basically pushing out the r and left side of the Overton window on impressionable youth. Cabal knows about r and K too AC.
…or they could be pushing it simply to double their sales on engagement rings.
“The Natanz nuclear site in Iran has been hit by five explosions in recent years, and the explosive used in the most recent attack on Natanz was “the size of a lentil.””
Nano-Energetic Reactive Materials (NERMs) sometimes called NEMs. They have explosive power several times that of TNT, with explosive power per unit weight approaching that of inefficient (non-Thermonuclear) nuclear weapons.
If they weren’t so expensive they would have already changed warfare, but they are becoming cheaper as nanomaterials and manufacturing becomes more prolific.
“zersetzung, domestic surveillance …. It is as if Cindy never even thinks, maybe one day her daughter will tell the wrong person the wrong thing and end up on the receiving end…”
Partly r selection, partly narcissism. Cindy doesn’t really care about her daughters and doesn’t think that far ahead. She just does what she’s told for more attention and rabbit nibbles (lucre).
That. They’ve lost the ability for second-order reasoning.

I don’t know if it is just a problem on my end but I can’t get the video to play on 3 different browsers.
It is still listed as “processing”, which means it messed up during processing. It won’t play for me yet, either. I’m going to have to re-upload it. And I am going to figure out how to request a delete function for my content because I now have two vids that I want to take down and can’t.
Meanwhile the second part just uploaded fine and I just tested it. I’ll have both links posted here before I go to bed tonight.

Creation of a chimaera
The argument is essentially a rerun of the debate over whether to allow lab research that increases the virulence, ease of spread or host range of dangerous pathogens — what is known as ‘gain-of-function’ research. In October 2014, the US government imposed a moratorium on federal funding of such research on the viruses that cause SARS, influenza and MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome, a deadly disease caused by a virus that sporadically jumps from camels to people).
The latest study was already under way before the US moratorium began, and the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) allowed it to proceed while it was under review by the agency, says Ralph Baric, an infectious-disease researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a co-author of the study. The NIH eventually concluded that the work was not so risky as to fall under the moratorium, he says.

Most of the research in our laboratory has used coronaviruses as models to study the genetics of RNA virus transcription, replication, persistence, and cross species transmission. We have also been using alphavirus vaccine vectors to develop novel candidate vaccines against caliciviruses. Specific areas of interest include:
1. Coronavirus Reverse Genetics and vaccine development.
We have developed infectious cDNAs from two coronaviruses. Specific applications include: a) studying critical cis and trans acting factors that regulate coronavirus subgenomic mRNA synthesis and replication, b) rearranging the coronavirus gene order to study genome evolution and function in coronavirus transcription and replication,
Baric is a name to research. How many in his lab were C nationalsl? All of Charles Lieber’s grad students at Farthard in Cambridge were C nationals. 2 were arrested the same day Lieber was manacled on campus, one of whom was bagged at Logan with testtubes of virus samples stuffed in a sock.

A U.S. NIH-funded $3.7 million project was approved by Trump’s Covid-19 advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci in 2015,
after the Obama White House imposed a ban on ‘monster-germ’ research. In October 2014, the federal government declared a moratorium on gain-of-function research to weaponize viruses related to influenza, Middle
East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). As a result, the research was
outsourced to China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology, which is currently at the center of scrutiny for the Covid-19
pandemic.

Don’t know why it is any of Susan Collins’ business what the crowd thought of Mitt Romney. She’s not from Utah and what happens at the Utah GOP meeting is none of her concern.

thanx, and yes. that book is on my list of things to get.
The more you watch Narcos, the more you realize how improbable a Cartel really is. The entire drug business is largely run by the CIA, with the CIA “helping along” different Cartels at different times depending on the financial and political interests of the intelligence agencies.
I mean, Pablo Escobar was waging war on the Colombian government and hiding pallets of cash in the jungle. There is no way he would be able to do any of that on his own without being wittingly or unwittingly helped by the CIA.

We have homeless vets but refugees get cash to take care of refugees of which most woll never do a single thing to make the country better.
Just for fun I searched this
https://www.fairus.org/issue/legal-immigration/fiscal-cost-resettling-refugees-united-states
The cost per refugee to American taxpayers just under $79,600 in the first five years after a refugee is resettled in the U.S.;
In 2016, the State Department spent nearly $545 million to process and resettle refugees, including $140,389,177 on transportation costs;
Of the $1.8 billion in resettlement costs, $867 billion was spent on welfare alone;
In their first five years, approximately 54 percent of all refugees will hold jobs that pay less than $11 an hour;
$71 million will be spent to educate refugees and asylum-seekers, a majority of which will be paid by state and local governments.
Over five years, an estimated 15.7 percent of all refugees will need housing assistance, which is roughly $7,600 per household in 2014 dollars.
These invaders are going to comprise our future federal police force. You know once they’ve terrorized actual Americans enough with their woke riots, freeing violent criminals, and de-funded/dis-banded our actual local police forces. They hope to have us screaming “Do something! Anything! Just make it stop!”
Once they get what they want then the true terrorizing can begin.
Close on them getting money, but you missed a step. First it is laundered through catholic charities, and THEN it goes to them. Maybe we should have wondered why catholic charities were so eager to import so many African Muslims.
Cabal importing man power for their private security firms. Civil wars will have lots of foreign mercenaries acting against the Western people, mass migration and refugees are those future mercenaries IMHO.
I read the link on the energy weapon and they said,”…Sens. Mark Warner (D-Va.) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said they’ve been aware for nearly five years about mysterious attacks targeting U.S. government officials…”
So they have known this for FIVE years and have done nothing about it! Unbelievable. We track radar from planes why can;’t we do so from these machines. I mean this must be of some substantive power or it would not be effective. It also must have some spread or it could affect buildings.
In my opinion air strikes or any other seriously violent action against areas doing this would be entirely appropriate.
It is not just that. There are people who should be at least reporting this stuff to Law Enforcement. Bill Binney had a fucking hole blown through shielding he installed in his ceiling, by a DEW he thinks was mounted on a drone. But you can’t go to the cops, because they will want to take you to meet some nice doctors they know. But if Senators were openly saying, “Hey, this is going on, right on the street outside our offices, and any case which involves a political individual should get investigated,” it would be entirely different.
They act like the people are children who they need to protect by making them clueless.

About the Bill Gates divorce, that link showed photos and gave details that werne’t easy to find before. Now I have a theory why Bill Gates daughter was dating that Saudi prince. Bill and Melinda planned to only leave $10 million each to their children. No wonder. This reminds me of the Biblical commandment that fathers shall not cause their daughters to be whores. Disinheriting a child from their rightful due might fit that category. Unless the kids knew it was fake money and they never had a chance anyway.
From a newsletter from South Africa:
“Destruction, thy name is African National Congress! Disintegration, degradation, decay and denial are the hallmarks of this organisation which the world hailed as the saviour of South Africa. Currently going viral is a black Boksburg resident’s WhatsApp video of a crumbling Boksburg East railway station. He laments the “apocalyptic” ruination of a once beautiful concourse east of Johannesburg. The rails are “on air” because the wooden sleepers have been stolen, while on a nearby line, the iron rails have been plundered, leaving the sleepers to rot in the sun. “The ANC has messed up big time” says the Boksburg resident. “Things used to run like clockwork under apartheid. Like a Swiss clock. No one can mess up like the ANC. They are useless. They are criminal – they are good at destruction.” He declares that “we are doomed”.
Railway tracks have been stolen all over the country. Between Brakpan and Springs on this same East rand, virtually nothing is left: rails and sleepers have disappeared. Overhead electricity lines have been stolen, supporting poles are bent or broken, while security fencing has been carted off in trucks and wheelbarrows. The Springs railway police, a unit responsible for patrolling this particular corridor, are not around: not a single vehicle is available to monitor this rail environment.
These examples are the tip of the iceberg. Throughout South Africa, our once world-class railway system is being plundered piece by piece. In addition, most of the country’s ancillary roads are illusions – they have become like the rest of Africa – potholes, no side tar edging, grass growing its way into the road centre. Verges and sidewalks have become small forests, as high as a man. Everyone sees the decay but the ANC doesn’t care – they are concentrating on winning the next election. Pillaging has become a way of life for them: they are people whose ability to parasite is second to none. No matter how much president Ramaphosa pumps up his fairy stories about new projects and exciting investments , third world dissipation has taken over. We know the signs – we see it all over Africa. Does the ANC see this disintegration? Someone said they see nothing ugly and they see nothing beautiful. As one former Transkei official told a visiting American many years ago, “we don’t care if the roads turn to dust, as long as we get rid of the whites”. Their roads of course did turn to dust.”

I know it’s just a turn of phrase, but I would avoid that one. If it isn’t God’s will, it ain’t ever happening. I’ve switched pretty easily to “God willing” and it feels better too.
(It’s more often “God willing and the creek don’t rise” but if that doesn’t feel natural don’t force it.)
RE: comments section
I found fark.com in it’s earlier years, somewhere around 2001-2ish. The flame wars had started to be moderated out of, there was a left lean but someone who knew how to turn a phrase could still own a thread in spite of all the sockpuppets.
I finally got shadowbanned in 2016 after I posted the pic of Trump in Warhammer 40K armor and a white MAGA hat. That was fun.
It’s a weird experience realizing that you’re now just invisible and no one sees you, and there was no warning.
