DFT – Labor Negotiations With Rail Workers Still Far From Any Agreement Over Wages

DFT – Foreign Investors With Cash Are Supporting The US Real Estate Market

DFT – China Now Produces Semiconductors Better Than The US Troubling.

Steve Bannon was found guilty Friday of contempt of Congress, but attorney and former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz was on Newsmax complaining about the jury, and saying a higher court will overturn it. Bannon faces 30 days to a year in prison for each of the two misdemeanor charges.

The man who allegedly tried to stab Republican candidate for New York governor Lee Zeldin with a bladed weapon during a campaign stop on Thursday was released from jail within hours of his arrest on a felony charge — just as Zeldin had predicted. Notice that despite this story, they can imprison people. The shopkeeper who was attacked by a guy, and stabbed him in self defense, was arrested and held, even as the woman who stabbed him while he was fighting with her boyfriend was not. If it was not coordinated intel activity, it would not be everywhere.

New York family gave Gov Hochul $300K, state paid their company $637 million for COVID tests.

Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and the 15 other Democratic lawmakers who were arrested Tuesday outside the Supreme Court coordinated the stunt with a progressive dark money group funded by billionaire George Soros.

Republican Representative James Comer believes that the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) will take action against Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, within “the next 60 days… because he’s left a trail that’s so obvious that no one, even the most partisan Democrat and the most partisan Biden supporter in the Department of Justice… can no longer turn a blind eye to his wrongdoing.”

The DOJ is reportedly working on a plea deal with Hunter Biden, indicating that many crimes related to trafficking drugs and women and extorting and taking bribes in the millions from foreign entities while his dad was Obama’s VP will go unindicted.

Former Notre Dame lineman Paul Duncan dies at 35 – was on a run in his neighborhood when he went into cardiac arrest.

UK Government confirms the triple/quadruple vaccinated account for 91% of all COVID deaths since the beginning of 2022.

Wayne Allyn Root: 33 dead and sick friends since our wedding only 8 months ago — all 33 vaxxed.

US records first two CHILD monkeypox cases: California toddler and an infant in D.C. were likely infected by ‘household contacts’ and both had contact with gay or bisexual men, CDC chief says. I hope it gets looked at very closely.

The Biden administration has canned several immigration judges, all appointed by Trump, and replaced them with “progressive” magistrates.

Two fentanyl traffickers were captured by Police, who found 150,000 tablets worth $750,000 in their possession during the arrest, but the California court considered the pair “low risk” and withdrew the requirement for a bond or bail and now they just failed to show up for their court date yesterday. Remember, when DEA agent Kiki Camarena was captured by the cartel, CIA sent down their best interrogator to interrogate him supposedly, to make sure his DEA operation wasn’t on to the CIA, before he left Camarena with the Cartel to be disposed of. There are a lot of people out there these days in a lot of places who are with intelligence.

Michigan public school employee who mocked anti-groomer parents during a school board meeting last year, has been arrested for allegedly trying to meet with minors for sex.

Depression is not a chemical imbalance, no relation to serotonin levels.

Poll finds, voters say ‘absolutely necessary’ for candidate to hold same views on guns, abortion for them to get support.

New study shows 55 percent of Democrats are tolerant of the term ‘minor-attracted persons.’ As of now, it is happening. Pedophilia is coming.

Verizon will drop One America News from its channel lineup, leaving the right-wing network without any major television carriers. Notice, nobody, not even leftists, want CNN. But everybody who gets cable, for the sports, for the movies, for Fox News, for anything else, pays CNN enough money that it can hire Don Lemon, who is a complete douche nobody likes, for millions per year. But OAN, who a lot of people genuinely love, can barely afford the 20-something girls fresh out of college, who are working for nothing to get something on their resume. And it will probably go under, even as I pay for it, and I don’t have cable or pay for shit else. That system, of bundled Cable shows, is probably an intel construct forced on the industry from the shadows. Even if it began innocently way back when cable began, it is retained now at the behest of intel, because it works like this. And the result is this massive plethora of assholes, from Brett Baeir, to Chris Wallace, to Chris Cuomo, to Geraldo, to Joe and Mika, all of whom nobody likes, and half the country probably would relish punching bullets through their skulls. Notice, if this stuff was even vaguely honest, one network would find somebody kind of likable, even by accident. But no, they are all with intelligence.

America’s woke Army is facing a recruiting nightmare. It dawns on me, if we can get all of our kind out of the military, and then they set off a world war, they would kill all the trannies and wokesters in the service. It is a bit early, but this looks to be shaping up kind of like the vaccine, maybe.

U.S. veterans fighting in Ukraine describe heavy losses against Russia. ‘The closest thing I’ve seen to hell.’

The White House announced Friday that the U.S. is sending an additional $270 million in security assistance to Ukraine. This is what happens when intelligence takes full control, and you no longer elect your leaders, your economy is no longer capitalistic, your media is just a propaganda wing of the intel op, your judicial system is compromised, and the intel op fills your whole governing, cultural, and social apparatus with corrupt agents. Nobody supports this, yet here is another $270 million.

Regarding the “woke” Army, I’ve told my children to stay the Hell out of the US Military. It hurt because I’m a Navy veteran, but I can’t in good conscience let them enter that system. It doesn’t deserve them.Many veteran friends of mine feel the same way. A guy at my church has a son who wants to be a Marine. I counseled him the same way. It’s sad though. While the military isn’t the panacea some make it out to be, it can be a good way to start your career. I learned electronics in the Navy and used that to get started when I finished my enlistment. VA mortgages are a great benefit. But “everything woke turns to shit”, and it’s not worth your children’s lives.

They are requiring mandatory COVID injections, and it seems that each day we find out more bad news about this stuff. That alone makes signing up a non-starter.

Something interesting came out about this in the last week that I almost linked to. All the services are requiring vaxed/ boosted as the standard. The navy, air force, and marines (!) got almost 100% compliance. The army leadership sort of slow walked it. Granted, they have more personnel, scattered in more locations, than the other services, and have a majority of their personnel in the reserves and national guard, so it always takes the army a long time to get civilian DoD directed mandates done. One governor tried to stop the program with his state’s national guard. But the army set a later date for their active component to get injected than the other services, an even later date for the reserves and national guard, let soldiers to just retire or quietly separate to avoid them, and even forcible separations are not dishonorable discharges.

Like with the general public in the USA, pretty much everyone got at least one injection. That is pretty depressing. But the resistance is with the boosters. The army deadlines were so far out that information was getting out about the adverse events by the time was up to get the boosters.

So there are over 200,000 soldiers at least not boosted, mostly in the reserves and national guard, and then there are an undetermined number of soldiers who were in the system last year and didn’t get the injections and just left quietly. So there is at least a core to build a new army around if that becomes necessary.

If you live in the right state there’s always the National Guard or State Guard as options. If you live in a more rural area I would advise a career in law enforcement as well. Lots of places need good, non-vaxxed, non-pozzed men. Just find a place that fits. And always keep looking.

As it is anyways, in 10 years not many Active Duty servicemen will be starting much of anything, and that includes careers, but especially families.

Its a problem because I like the gays I have known personally. And I think marriage and child-rearing should be a legal issue, but not sex that doesn’t result in children. But is probably appropriate to go back to a time where you could be gay, but it had to be done on the down low.

In my travels, I visit a lot of big corporations. You know, those corporations that broadcast their gleaming, sparking images to the world. The dirty underbelly of these manufacturers of consumer crap is stunningly different from what they want the world to believe. The dungeon-like reality is the polar opposite of the glossy image. Often, entering one of these manufacturers of say, wash powders or even candy is like entering prisons complete with facial scans and demands for ID and signing away rights before entering the compound. Seeing where the things we buy are produced vs. seeing the image presented of these products in the media can be nauseating when when compares and contrasts the two. It’s stunning to see the disconnect first hand. America’s carefully crafted image is nothing but make believe.

Highlighting this because I’ve read elsewhere that Soros (who is probably a cut-out) is basically the main funder of the Democratic Party, at least as important as Sheldon Abelson for the GOP. The Democratic Party is pretty much a Soros sponsored NGO at this point. If that is true, that explains a lot, so its probably true.

I had Steve Bannon’s war room podcast on while going through the links and making a few comments. He has a warroom.org site which archives the podcasts about two hours after they air live, and apple podcasts of all place still has them. The main war room site never appears on Google but is searchable through Yandex.

About half way through today’s podcast, Bannon had Alex Jones on. They started out mostly praising each other, with Jones more interviewing Bannon than the other way around, but in the second segment Jones went deep. Nothing that would surprise anyone looking at this site regularly, but it adds more depth. Then right at the end Bannon asked Jones about his personal security arrangements, and yikes.

Jones has a book and a documentary coming out in the next month. Anyway I think this episode is worth taking the time to check out.

Pfizer and Moderna both knew that the MRNA shots were basically abortion shots, and it’s provable. And they lied about it. So all that’s needed is a court to actually hear the evidence in a fraud case and their 100% liability protection is GONE and they are 100% liable for all vaxx damages, which of course will be the end of both companies and hopefully at least some of the doctors and execs responsible.

Trump will pivot on the shots, declare himself to be as much a victim as everybody else, and lead the pitchfork & torch mob. I maintain that this was the plan the entire time.

Trump’s weak response caused some right wing fence sitters to do it, don’t play dumb. I guarantee him saying it convinced more than one person on the right to do it, so it’s not just innocent tee-hee jokes. He was the fucking President for God’s sake, he had no reason for playing along with the murder shot narrative aside from retardation, cowardice or complicity.

Completely ignoring the fact that even cabal’s minions are humans too, albeit demon possessed or just fatally naive. Tricking them into murdering themselves and their babies isn’t exactly a great road to walk, so I’ll pray for mercy on his soul come judgement day.

Its Axios, and its long, but its a pretty fair and informative article about developments in Trumpland.

There are a few pieces of information that I have read in other sources that are worth keeping in mind when reading the article. The first is that Trump loyalists, or Q, didn’t get control of the Office of Personnel Management until fairly late in his term in office. It was only after this happened that positive things started getting done.

I have read about the Schedule F plan to restructure the federal civil service in other sources, and have read that its development was really what spurred the color revolution against Trump. I actually think that before that there was a possibility of a deal between the Cabal and Trump.

The article claims that Trump and Mitch McConnell are no longer on speaking terms. I read elsewhere that Trump and Kevin McCarthy speak to each other weekly, so make of this what you will. Apparently some elected pols are OK. Jim Jordan, who Pelosi booted off the January 6th committee, is listed as a Trump advisor, and Mark Meadows is still obviously good with Trump.

The second half of the article goes into long inside baseball on who is now in Trump’s inner circle. The one I don’t trust at all is Rick Grenell. The others seem solid or I have never heard of them before.

RE: the woke military recruiting fiasco.
They are losing their core supporters, white Christian males. If the recruiting continues to crater for another year, then they’ll be seriously talking “DRAFT,” just in time for the 2024 election. And, because of “Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity,” there is the very real possibility of serious discussion of drafting women as well.
Now I can think of several things that may make women freak out, but the possibility of being drafted is about the only thing I can think of that would make more of them have a total melt-down even beyond Roe-v-Wade. I mean, the histrionics of being told they have to show up or lose rights, and then the whammy that for most who show up they will get told they are unfit for service, the hysteria will be off the charts. Moms are sort-of-OK with sending sons off to war, it’s part of the job description, but daughters?! That will make a LOT of women leave the Dems way, WAY behind in the dust.

I will laugh at them, hard, to their faces, at the hypocrisy and weakness.

I don’t get it. Why is making an affordable doublestack 1911 SO DAMN DIFFICULT? I just discovered this gun. It’s literally a 1911 that takes Glock mags. Glock mags that are AFFORDABLE and EASY TO FIND, which is the exactly the opposite of Stacatto or RIA or any other 2011 manufacturer which use a refined Para Ordinance mag. So checkmate, right?

Wrong. These idiots then went and priced the gun at over $1,600. For a concealed carry pistol, or roughly $1000 more than a S&W SHIELD PLUS. You can make a less than $1000 1911, several companies have been doing it for decades.

RIA could do this pistol for $600 realistically, just without the massive amount of handfitting or DLC finish, and that’s fine because their phosphated 1911’s run fine for the cost. A Turkish company could offer the pistol even cheaper. Hell an American company could nitride the slide and still deliver it for $750 because the CNC machine doesn’t care what it’s milling.
Yet the American gun simply market REFUSES to put out a doublestack 1911 that normal people can actually afford.

It takes the Shield Arms S15, which is the magazine designed to fit into a Glock 43X. This bumps up the capacity of the 43X to 15 rounds, which makes the capacity equal to a Glock 19 in a much smaller and thinner package.

America’s woke Army is facing a recruiting nightmare.

I believe this has happened many times in the past. The leadership becomes so unbearable and greedy that no one will fight for it.

I think this is exactly why Rome fell. They instituted no fault divorce, exactly like we have now. With payments to the Women. Same stuff. So Men refused to get married. It caused such a problem that they instituted a bachelor tax (expect this in our future). They eventually made it where no one could change professions and everyone had to do what their fathers did. The Oligarch Senate tried to suck up every penny in the country to put in their pockets.

So when the Vandals came down from the North they called for fighters and…no one came. They all just tried to stay out of the way. Destruction of the government was a relief to them.

Every Race, Every Tribe
After studying cultures as diverse as the Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, and dozens of other groups Unwin [in his book Sex and Culture] found a 100% perfect correlation between the practice of heterosexual fidelity and cultural development. As Unwin wrote, across 5,000 years of history he found absolutely no exception his rule:
These societies lived in different geographical environments; they belonged to different racial stocks; but the history of their marriage customs is the same.
In the beginning each society had the same ideas in regard to sexual regulations.
Then the same struggles took place; the same sentiments were expressed; the same changes were made; the same results ensued.
Each society reduced its sexual opportunity to a minimum and displaying great social energy, flourished greatly.
Then it extended its sexual opportunity; its energy decreased, and faded away. The one outstanding feature of the whole story is its unrelieved monotony.
Without exception, once restrictions on sexuality are lifted, especially female sexuality, a society destroys itself from within, and is later conquered from without.

Remember when the SJW’s keep saying “It wasn’t made for YOU” when we would tell them that their newest IP vandalism effort was awful? I LOVE how the show’s people keep saying exactly that to the NPCs attacking the it.

Also, from a gun guy perspective, the gun play in this show is surprisingly realistic. After Pratt’s character is stateside he never TOUCHES an automatic weapon. All the guns in the show are something that can be purchased in free-er states that allow silencer ownership. Pratt’s AR15 in the show can be pieced together with a stripped lower and mail-order parts even in California. The silencers obviously require a different explanation.

But yeah, Pratt is constantly using SEMI-AUTO fire and correctly doing top-off reloads during engagements. Not sure where he trained, but they portrayed it correctly.

Terminal List is a great series. The gun handling is spot-on. There was a scene where he was shooting at one of the assassins after rear-ending with a truck. He did a neat one-handed chamber check on his Glock.

China Now Produces Semiconductors Better Than The US 

That’s a great article, but why is it a struggle to prevent the Dutch from selling machine tools to China?

If only we can force all the Villains to fight each other locked in with each other until there is no one left.

The Chinese would be just as bad if they were in the dominant position.
They are already running the same kind of dirty operations in the US as cabal does and would do even more without cabal. (cabal keeps going in spite of our guns and so would they)
Between the two I do not care who wins, I want to see both lose.

“…Do I really have a dog in this fight, between the people who really run the west and the Chinese? I don’t know anymore….As long as the Chinese stayed out of the US, which they probably would, given all our guns, do I care if it is them or Cabal calling the shots on the world stage? They are both psychopaths, just one loves globohomo, and the other does not….”

I don’t. I don’t worship China or Russia but they are keeping the pox from taking over the world and that’s a good thing.

I bet if China and Russia were neutralized it would be airborn ebola in no time and a huge die off. As it is they still need someone to fight their wars for them just in case.

It astounds me that they are still so weakening the west that at some point they may find themselves punched out instead of the general population. It’s not like China and Russia do not know who is responsible. Technology is advancing such that it would not be out of the question to take these people out. All of them.

I can’t remember where I read it but someone analyzing their actions said he believes that they just have no answer for the stance of China and Russia. According to their plans they should both have been on board. So not having any answers for this they are just proceeding to destroy the west for lack of any other good plan they will stick to the one they had and hope for the best.

It just occurred to me this reminds me of the Issac Azimov “Foundation” Series books. In the books there was a group of historians that analyzed history and determined the space empire was going to fall and they would guide/control it back as they wished. The best one was about “the Mule”. The Mule upset all their plans and became the king of the empire because he could read minds. Putin and Xi Jinping are the Mule. There’s no good answer for them from the neo-psychohistorians.

 Foreign Investors With Cash Are Supporting The US Real Estate Market

So China is allowing its own property market to collapse to prevent housing inflation that would delay or forego Chinese affordable family formation while allowing Chinese investment to raise the cost of housing in the USA.
