Fascinating video of a New York City “Leftist activist” (Who would probably be running surveillance in his downtime as part of domestic intelligence if he is in politics and not getting harassed) getting stabbed to death. The full video off 4Chan, albeit without sound is here. Notice, in the full, hi-res video, how they both hide their faces, and look like they are waiting until this guy passes. What were he and the woman doing, and why did they get up to walk just after this guy passed? Why did they both hide their faces in the full video, until he passed? Did it look like they were meandering, and maintaining a set distance behind the guy, rather than going somewhere? I think the black guy may have been a target who just popped, and these were just the two closest followers. Notice, after he is stabbed to death, the woman seems relatively unconcerned about her guy, and says in the first link with sound, to the other woman who runs up, “Go watch him!”, in a very calm, authoritative voice. The other woman, who runs up to a stabbing at 4AM, and has a cell phone in her hand, immediately follows the order, without any need for clarification. She doesn’t call the cops right away, or pause, or offer to help the dying guy. If I was there, as a decently violence-capable male, if a woman tells me, “Go follow that crazed murderer who just stabbed my boy here to death, and who is still ranting like a lunatic!,” I think I would say, “Oh, no, ladies first! You can tell me how it goes!” 

I think the woman who ran up was also surveillance, and this was a higher ranking ground commander ordering a subordinate, to continue following a target after she just got her underling killed. You are a woman and your boyfriend just got stabbed to death by a madman, and a woman runs up, do you tell her, “Go watch him!” in a calm, cool, and collected voice? Or are you in shock, and scream, “Oh my God! He stabbed him! Call an ambulance! Call the Police! Help me save him!” Oh my God! Bobby! Bobby! Stay with me!”

Another day, another front page headline.

I want to move on, but the woman’s reaction is so haunting. Supposedly there is a better pic of her here, with a with tattoo on her arm. Her response is like just another Tuesday. I am a hard dude, but if you stabbed one of my real friends to death in front of me, I am 100 percent engaged trying to save them immediately, even if there is no real chance. I’d care. It is very strange. Who are these people, and why is following us this important to them, that a fallen comrade at their feet is just a necessary cost of the mission of making others, who are minding their own business, uncomfortable?

Update – The dude who was killed identified himself as a member of Antifa on social media. That opens up a whole range of possibilities. Now, he is a player – maybe he knows something he shouldn’t. Maybe he was a double agent, infiltrating the organization for an opposing party. Now maybe the woman’s mission was to let the guy up ahead light that black dude’s fuse, and then put her “friend” in front of the guy, because psychological services determined, if you could set the black guy off, he would kill whoever was in front of him. Would explain why she was so cool, and doesn’t call an ambulance immediately, or Police, or render aid, and sends off the other agent, who might have tried to help him. Also notice, the Antifa dude burning down a city one day, and trying to kill Kyle Rittenhouse the next, may be following you through a grocery store the day after that. I sound nuts saying these things, but look at the first twelve seconds of the full video above, played over and over on a full screen, and tell me what the two of them are doing on the bench, and tell me it isn’t the target’s passing that gets them up.

And I will just add for completeness, I do not think this guy was a leftist, probably. I doubt he had ideology, and I think he viewed his role as an acting gig. I suspect he viewed ideologues as idiots, who have no idea how things work, and who exist just to be manipulated. Also interesting was how utterly helpless he was in the face of violence. I do not know if they select for that, to more fully control their charges, or if they mandate it. But I do not see many surveillance who strike me as hardened killers. Maybe they just think the machine is all the protection they need. But it is curious, since you would think they would recruit for diversity in that, as well as everything else.

From my experience, I think it more likely than not, adults ordered her targeting by kid spies in the school, and I would not be surprised if that veterinarian killed her horse on orders of command, because it brought her joy. I bet it would be a privilege to know this girl. She may be a real treasure in some way. I hope she wins. And I hope everyone involved in targeting our kids just for having potential sees justice one day.

interesting take on the video. i was along with a lot of reactions i read – stupid liberal with complete lack of awareness gets himself killed by policies he supported.
i’ve seen the full video w sound, and your comments are interesting; a bit like a higher order analysis.
i’m a daily reader but admittedly have a hard time swallowing all of the surveillance stuff, but her reactions are pretty…unnatural.
to seem not to be aware of the guy and/or follow him was crazy. i agree her order to the other girl is illogical, and where did she come from?
and the second girl’s initial reaction is to say “I’m sorry”.
when i first heard that i thought that she must have known the killer. why would she say “i’m sorry” so quickly? like she had some responsibility for the event or connection to it.
interesting take and does make sense from what you explained.
maybe my hot take of “look at that stupid lib getting what he deserves” is the intended reaction….

It is clearly another psyop hoax complete with usual absurd dialog and poor acting.

Victim has white shirt, yet no blood is visible. Short blade, three stabs or slashes, no direct heart area stab. Notice the “girlfriend” doesn’t wipe assailant’s spit from her face”

“Girlfriend” positions herself between camera and body with her back to the assailant, obscuring area where blood would begin visibly pooling. It is a fixed camera but the video clip abruptly ends there while the victim is still moving and knife guy is still close by.

NYPIRG, who the stabbed activist worked for is a longtime campus cabal recruiter. He is self-reportedly ANTIFA.

Public Interest Research Groups ( PIRGs) are a federation of U.S. and Canadian [4] non-profit organizations that employ grassroots organizing and direct advocacy on issues such as consumer protection, public health and transportation.

The psyop is created by FBI to warn white liberal ANTIFA types that the BLM-ANTIFA alliance in blue cities has been dissolved. This is BLM (Obama CIA faction) and ANTIFA (FBI Clinton faction) divorcing amidst the looming Joe Biden take down.

White liberals are being warned by Cabal to get out of blue cities while military age brown and black illegals are flooded in to create Obama’s CIA standing army for the coming Cabal war against MAGA.

I agree its a psyop but I dont think the murder is hoax. Not all stab wounds bleed a lot. I think they kill people for real in these psyops, for example school shootings are done by professional shooters. Human life has no value to them and its probably quite hassle to fake someone’s death. They only fake deaths for high-ups like Epstein, not ground operators.

Stabbed 3 times then falls to the ground and doesn’t move as if he were instantly killed. This is possible if he was stabbed through the breast bone and directly into the heart which takes a lot of strength, practice and knowledge. To actually get the effect we see here, a trained killer would also have to sever the spinal cord in addition to the heart stab. Both wounds require a large razor sharp military grade knife. Knife fighters also don’t immediately stab, they slash. Granted, the killer is supposedly just a street thug but the results he gets are what you’d expect from an elite soldier with lots of hand to hand combat kills under his belt. It would be much more believable without the knife: throw a few punches, victim falls to the ground, hits his head, unmoving, dead.

And those pathetic, limp wristed push offs? That big of a pussy would already be a block away running for his life while his woman is dragged into a dirty alley, gang raped and murdered.

A real actor would tell his director hey man, this isn’t realistic. Why don’t I stumble back and slowly drop to my knees, maybe crawl towards the killer like I’m still in the fight, but no, I’m dying, so I collapse to the ground, roll onto my back, reach up to my gf, tell her I love her, and then freeze dead. And she starts screaming no, no, no, please baby, stay with me, I love you too! And give me a big blood pack, at least a gallon so I can really sell it.

Looks like McCarthy served his purpose. I remember Trump supported him for speaker back in Jan.

About two and a half years ago, anons kept putting up the theory that Trump would be Speaker of the House. At the time, I thought he would settle for no less than legitimately elected President. This time around, I’m thinking the timing is better. Get him in as Speaker, Article 25 Brandon and Whore-ess, then he’s back in office and he can get that retribution that has the swamp shitting their pants. Get some popcorn.

What if they don’t even have internal dialog or autonomy at all? Like a Clockwork Orange type thing where the “show them the alien” and they are all excited to be chosen as part of some great secret, but when they come out they are shells with no souls.

Some of mine really seem like they would even be nice people. Just a strangeness hard to describe. Somewhere between “this is stupid and I don’t want to be here, which could be human…and like a psyche patient who’s heavily medicated.

I’m not crazy I really do think it’s like, “they live”. Even including the faction of real humans or not yet uploaded into the immortality machine (where of course they await true spiritual obliteration) that go along and let them mingle among us in their fleshsuits or fucking stolen bodies maybe like demonic possession. Maybe sometimes The deamons just like to get their hair done and chat or follow people around. Don’t think The developer race of upload your soul to The cloud hard drive we crashed on your planet where we hide in in the ground. The door on the meeting house in the movie has the MOS of “Army Radar Operator” I swear that’s a breadcrumb from someone. The whole movie to be honest is a bit like a movie about AC where AC smashes cabals face in and is the hero. First seeing them. Rejecting an offer to join and then figuring out their weird transmission technologies.
Maybe they even calculated it was inevitable, made a movie to delay their rejection by humans.

I just don’t see how a real economy can ever afford so many people with nothing really to do. They don’t poison us to kill us. I swear they spend more on lurking or driving by per year than I make in a year. Is it like a training exercise before they get sent overseas because for covert they suck at the covert part. If it’s intentionally over than why? Sucking off our real soul rays like vampires or maybe the original creators were weird tranny fags and they are just creepy wierdos. Either way Fkkem. My soul is with Jesus. They almost got me tho.

Undead alien bodysnatchers aside. Most people willing to consider mass ground ops / gang stalking would assume the NSA is just keeping a closer eye on you than normies and that many of these people are ok doing it, taking a little of that sweet taxpayer money to help defend the nation or prevent terrorism. As anon #276446645 said, most people are really very stupid. So this makes convincing anyone that they ALL are cabal, and in the know about anything above who they report to, difficult even i don’t think they all are. Sone are clown world serfs getting fantasy camped i would think

But i also wonder sometimes if they are run by Vampire AI pervert aliens. Like the Borg crossed with Slenderman and Martin Short. Either way, all it takes is to creep me out just a little bit for me to enter a state of just resisting the urge to become violent. Happy to chat with strangers and i sometimes try and cheer up miserable cashiers even. But privacy is nice. Or so i would imagine

 and yet there is no visible profit, or useful intelligence they seem to get”

Yesterday I went out to smoke a cig, and one of them came from the parking lot, went upstairs to his apartment (our stairways are on the outside), then came back out and went to the parking lot again. All of this show, just so he could walk by while I was outside.

It makes zero sense. They already know that I know they exist. But this guy, he hangs out in the parking lot for no telling how long, just so he could do the walk by. Multiply that by the 12 (minimum) field operators that live just in my building, who have to wait around to be ready for nothing more than to come out or back in when I am outside, and they are wasting way more of their own time than what they waste of mine in their stupid traffic games.

In re USD “strength” and US bond market

Even if one believes that USD increasing vs the Ruble is overall bad for RUS (and it might be, we’ll see), it certainly isn’t “all good” for us.

Luke Gromen points out how a “strengthening” USD has domestics effects in the US bond market that are a serious problem. Potentially a very very serious problem.

Essentially, as the USD goes up foreign sales of USTs go up. This results in “non-linear” or “convex” increases to supply of USTs. Luke’s arguing this is a feedback loop. Theoretically.

This is Trump sending comms to the judge. The judge had a VERY similar scandal when he was a clerk for another NYC judge, where he was dating the secretary of one of the attorneys with a big case in front of the judge, and the judge ended up being thrown off the case because of the clerk’s (the CURRENT judge) dating of the secretary without disclosure.

On McCarthy being fired as Speaker. I want to highlight a “the dog that did not bark” aspect to this that I am still trying to make sense of.

The Democrats did not go to McCarthy’s rescue. I thought in January that enough Republicans would switch parties to let the Democrats keep the majority, or there would be some sort of power sharing arrangement like the one that apparently exists in the Texas House of Representatives and which has happened in other state legislatures. But this soesnt’t seem to have happened.

This sis the list of the Republicans who voted to vacate:
Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona
Rep. Ken Buck of Colorado
Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee
Rep. Eli Crane of Arizona
Rep. Bob Good of Virginia
Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina
Rep. Matt Rosendale of Montana

Nine didn’t vote on the motion, so here is that list:
Rep. Cori Bush of Missouri (D)
Rep. John R. Carter of Texas (R)
Rep. Lance Gooden of Texas (R)
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida (R)
Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California (D)
Rep. Mary Sattler Peltola of Alaska (D)
Rep. Emilia Strong Sykes of Ohio (D)

I don’t see a pattern with the abstentions, and Pelosi was in San Francisco attending Diane Feinstein’s funeral, and this process happened quite suddenly, so she at least had a legitimate reason not to be there. I think Luna just gave birth recently.

But for what its worth, if you live in a blue zone, like me, your Congressman voted to oust McCarthy, but if you live in a redistan, your Congressman probably voted to keep him. I have the sense the process was a necessary thing to go through, but I don’t know if it will ultimately help or hurt us.

I went to the website of The Hill, which is an establishment media outlet specializing in coverage of Congress, that despite being establishment is still fairly sane in its coverage.

And they had an opinion piece by Mark Mulvaney, a former Congressman who Trump appointed to some high level positions. And its worth posting the link here:

https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/4236973-democrats-vote-to-oust-mccarthy-shows-they-have-no-interest-in-bipartisanship/

Mulvaney wrote about what I noted in an earlier comment today. That the most notable thing about the vote to oust McCarthy is that all the Democrats voting voted to oust McCarthy. But he made the point that this came after McCarthy got passed a fiscal bill, with Democratic support, that pretty much gave the Democrats everything they wanted except funding for Ukraine. And I think the Ukraine funding was the key factor here. They could have voted to table the motion to vacate and the issue would have gone away, and McCarthy still would be giving them everything they wanted except for the Ukraine funding. They could have arranged for six Democrats to vote for McCarthy too.

Mulvaney pointed out that this means the next Speaker would be insane, just on narrow personal advancement grounds, to make an agreement with the Democrats about anything. They will just stab you the back, almost immediately. In fact the same could be said about the ticket takers who work with the Cabel.

Recent awareness of the pervasive surveillance and unaccountable personal attacks is like a veil being lifted. And of course every day we see more treachery, perversion, and inversion against everything good, beautiful, and true.  
I’m beginning to see what the Apostle Paul was talking about when he said, 
 “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
 14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.” Ephesians 6:12
Honestly, it’s time to get serious about our walk with God. We need to understand who we are in Christ Jesus, and know what we are called and empowered to do.

Additionally, Paul faced the same physical surveillance. The NT provides tactics and operations and strategy to prevail. In addition of course to the more important things.

Ivermectin apple flavored horse paste is being used to control rosacea.
Thought it might be a useful detail, since mysterious skin issues are coming up as concerns.

Did anyone hear anything becoming of this? or did the FedEx truck just drop off a few weird ‘packages’ for the crows on the side of the road that no one missed?

Who in their right mind would follow an angry black male who has just done a savage knife attack?

The victims girl seemed composed when she ordered the girl to go after the attacker. You would expect hysterics.

Quick search shows in 2018, it cost $32000 to give birth in the US

I dont believe it. Hospitals would never maximise costs.

Mind you, as with vaccines, natural solutions that cost nothing are inferior

Re the stabbing
It appears as if she is looking directly at the surveillance camera right before getting up, like she knew they were being recorded.
