The Fauci Rorschach Test

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

Tony Fauci’s announcement yesterday that he would finally step down from a public health post that he has parlayed over thirty-eight years into one of the most powerful – and the highest compensated – in the federal administrative state is a kind of Rorschach test.

Those who have seen Dr. Fauci as the heroic scientist who valiantly, and successfully, led the response to the COVID-19 pandemic are anguished by his retirement in December. For those of us perceiving him instead as the villainous uber-bureaucrat whose role reflected not hard science, but personal calculation and benefit, his departure is long-overdue and can’t come soon enough.

The question is: Will Fauci be held accountable, for example, for the consequences of his enabling the Chinese Communist Party’s biological warfare program to use U.S. funds and technology to create the coronavirus that has killed a million of us?

This is Frank Gaffney.

The Human Cost of the Dialectic War Against our Identity

/in , , , , , , /by

The following is from a comment left at Vlad today. It is an analysis of a true account of which, some of the more gruesome details have actually been left out. At some point one can hope, the Ottawa Police will make it, and others like it public, so that we might come to understand the cost of policies and tactics which lead to these outcomes. One might argue that denying us this knowledge is another crime on top of a crime.

The article Johnnyu refers to is this one.

For anyone wishing to understand these times as a gestalt of dialectic attack, please consider investing some time and effort to read the materials at this site. A great place to begin is this article, mentioned on Bill Warner’s interview.

On to the guest post story by Johnnyu

Last week a friend of mine received a text from an old neighbor. They had shared the same fence for a few years, then lost touch. It was a nice family, she said, of a mother, father and three children. The father wrote to say his 23-year old son had killed himself. He had written his suicide note on a wall in his own blood here in Ottawa. In the note he made reference to Dear Leader’s war on “…CO2 breathers…”. (paraphrased) The young man with his welding certificate was obviously disturbed. He had refused Covid injections and had lost his job, and in the note lamented the effects of the lockdown on his social life. The police said it was the worst Covid suicide they had ever seen.

This week more information came out. The young man was more mentally ill than was known to outsiders. While not every detail of his life, specifically, was abnormal in the context of our society today, in their aggregate they reveal something I find pertinent.

If I recount things wrongly it is because they come to me indirectly, but I hope you agree that full accuracy becomes slightly irrelevant when applied more broadly.

This young white man had gone through a Rastafarian phase where he dreadlocked his hair. He was extensively tattooed and pierced. He may have been involved in illegal drugs. He painted his finger and toenails with nail polish and said on social media he was “transitioning”. There is likely more to his search for identity, but I won’t speculate. It’s too sad, too serious, and too tragic. My friend’s daughter, who was near his age and more familiar with the story, told her mother it was a trend.

A trend. What kind of trend can follow this? What, exactly, repeats here? An identity crisis?

Certainly confusion, not even confined to the young, who find themselves untethered in an unrelenting information battle space assaulting them at every turn. I see in him a young man trying to understand the world, and himself, while attempting to do so in a world that is lost and on the move in ways we have never seen on such a scale. He was trying to assimilate too many of the things that today’s society says you must in order to be a good person. Meanwhile he was trying to think for himself by questioning the climate change narrative. Talk about a little boat tossed by a storm.

When I considered this story in terms of Eeyore’s outline of the attack on our value system by communist dialectics, the two seemed to fit. Vulnerable, impressionable people subjected, to their core, by an unrelenting stream of demoralizing assaults, may find their emotional cups, so to speak, running over. Is it any wonder when even we dinosaurs feel overwhelmed, sometimes, and have to take a break? This young man was the very manifestation of this psychological, dialectic warfare. He had tried to be everything, and so inevitably despaired into being not enough of anything. No one gets to this point without both a brain and a heart working overtime.

I become even more sympathetic to his plight when I see the endless, similar embodiments of dialectic attack walking the streets. Strolling statues to so-called diversity, inclusion, tolerance, and sexual dysphoria abound on our sidewalks replete in blue hair, nose rings, and proud, obese, tattooed body positivity. The now-famous question, “What is a woman?” dissolves away as the debate slides on the dialectic grease ever left until there are no longer capable men or women left to ask the basic questions. Such a question is asked, nay screamed, only because the dialectic inferno is raging. Yes, it becomes debated because today’s reality will be discussed ad nauseum until the ground is shifted yet again beneath our feet. New conclusions will be met by “consensus”, then further debate on “new” realities continues because our goal posts have been moved again. Such moral relativism is built on linguistic slights-of hand such as the term, “pregnant people”. –Seemingly innocuous, ridiculous, but as sharply-edged and purpose built as a Japanese kitchen knife. It is a nudge among endless nudges with words into ever-new dystopian pseudo-reality. Nudge. We’re not in Kansas any more. Nudge. Kansas will be forgotten when we’re gone. Nudge. That’s the plan. Nudge.

No wonder there are mounting casualties.

Many Roads to Riches on Capitol Hill

/in , , , , , , , /by

Sometimes it seems there are almost as many ways for members of Congress to be corrupt as there are members of Congress.

A company in which Paul Pelosi holds an 8 percent ownership stake just had $1.7 million dollars in federal pandemic relief loans forgiven.  Gee, I wonder how that happened.  He’s the guy who bought perhaps $5 million in stock options in a computer chip company before the big vote on subsidies for computer chip companies.  He wasn’t the only one.  A former chair of the Dallas Federal Reserve recently criticized the Pelosi’s and others connected to the Hill for taking advantage of inside information for years.

When I was in high school, Senator Charles Percy from Illinois put all his holdings into a blind trust so he never knew what his money was invested in, or how his Senate votes affected his personal fortune.  I always admired that and thought it is the solution to the insider trading problem on Capitol Hill.

It’s not just stock.  Down-for-the-struggle Squad member Ayanna Pressley introduced a bill to provide taxpayer-funded relief for landlords, then picked up a nice rental property portfolio just two months later.  But we are supposed to have blind trust the people we send to Congress have our best interests at heart, not their own pocketbook.

She’s not the only one who might be thinking being in Congress is the road to riches.  Since 2000, at least 90 former members of Congress have registered as foreign agents to lobby on behalf of foreign governments, with Communist China coming on strong in recent years.  These former members know where their rice bowl is buttered.

Then we have good old-fashioned nepotism, the latest example being Chuck Schumer’s son-in-law who just scored a position as director of government affairs for Blackstone, the big private equity group which is keenly interested in infrastructure and tax legislation Congress might pass.  Schumer previously blocked legislation that was opposed by companies that had hired other members of his family.

No story on Capitol Hill corruption would be complete without the use of campaign funds for personal enrichment.  Top Democrats in the House – Maxine Waters, James Clyburn, and Ilhan Omar all have put family members on campaign payrolls to the tune of millions of dollars.  California Democrat Eric Swalwell wants to use campaign funds to pay for babysitters while he travels overseas.  The campaign fund of deceased Congressman Alcee Hastings recently shut down but not before giving the last $23,000 to his widow for no apparent campaign purpose.  If this is within the rules, there’s something wrong with the rules.

Everyone’s heard of congressional junkets – free trips to exotic places having no legislative purpose.  But here’s the dirty little secret:  Outside groups get millions in federal grants, fund hundreds of these useless trips – not to mention campaign contributions – then turn around and lobby for more federal grants.  Nice racket they got going there.

Stories like these would be amusing if they weren’t so criminal.  The House Ethics Committee recently referred the Democrat Delegate from Guam to the Justice Department for possible prosecution for taking excessive campaign contributions and trying to hide them.  A former Democrat House member from California was just indicted for money laundering, wire fraud, and campaign finance violations – 28 counts in all.  Among other things, he is accused of funneling money from his businesses to friends and family so they could donate it to his campaign.  Pretty ingenious.

Don’t get mad – get even.  Asking your member of Congress if they will put all their holdings into a blind trust like Charles Percy did is a good place to start.

PODCAST: The Motivations for Activism

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Bill Warner now has a new series over at Political Islam. He is interviewing people who have been active on the issue of Islam as a threat doctrine to Western Civ. I was honored to be among the first people he spoke with for his new series. For anyone who doesn’t already know Dr. Warner, he is the curator of Political Islam. An excellent resource for the understanding of Islam as more than a religion, but a complete system of thought which at its core will settle for nothing less than global manifest destiny. Here is the interview he did with me.

The American Gestapo

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

“You’ve got the NSA doing all this collecting of material on all of its citizens – that’s what the SS (Schutzstaffel), the Gestapo, the Stasi, the KGB, and the NKVD did. (NKVD is The People’s Commissariat for Internal Affairs.)” — William Binney – Former intelligence official with the United States National Security Agency and whistleblower.

“We must rid this nation of the United Nations, which provides the communist conspiracy with a headquarters here on our own shores, and which actually makes it impossible for the United States to form its own decisions about its conduct and policies in Europe and Asia.” — John T. Flynn – author of While You Slept

“Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.” — Thomas Jefferson

“No cause is left but the most ancient of all, the one, in fact, that from the beginning of our history has determined the very existence of politics, the cause of freedom versus tyranny.” —  Hannah Arendt

“Not yet, O Freedom! close thy lids in slumber, for thine enemy never sleeps” comes from William Cullen Bryant’s poem, The Antiquity of Freedom.  Close not your eyes in slumber fellow citizens, but rise as warriors for the cause of freedom!

Are Americans so weak that they will keep their heads down and hope the evil passes?  Are they so propagandized by the Democrat’s media comrades that they believe what is happening is righteous? Or are they oblivious to the very threats of evil occurring in our nation and around the world?

Not only are we a nation now known for genocide, we mirror third world tyrannical dictatorships.  Hitler had his Gestapo and Biden has the armed federal agencies, including the entire intelligence community.  Do our fellow citizens have a clue what the Gestapo represented?  Afterall, few government schools teach world history, much less American history and the US Constitution.

Hitler’s Gestapo

In 1933, Hermann Goring combined the various political police agencies into an organization.  It was called the Gestapo, an abbreviation of Geheime Staatspolizei, the official secret police of Nazi Germany.  They were the policing arm of the dictator in charge.  Goring’s Prussian Secret Police force was originally formed in 1851 with the police forces of Austria, Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony, Hanover, Baden and Wurttemberg.  They were initially organized to suppress political dissent in the wake of the 1848 revolutions which spread across Germany.  In previous articles I’ve mentioned the 1848ers who emigrated to America after their attempts to establish socialism failed in Europe.  In 1933, Hermann Goring recreated them with the Gestapo, and in 1936, it became a branch of the Schutzstaffel (SS) run by Heinrich Himmler.

Think we don’t have the same thing here in America?  We certainly do.  Like Lenin, Stalin, Pol Pot, Hitler, Mussolini, Ho Chi Minh and others, Biden used dictatorial powers and his politicized DOJ in a huge show of force against an opposition leader and former president.  The August 8th FBI raid on Mar-A-Lago was a wild abuse of power.  We have seen these actions in other countries where it is immediately denounced as an act of a dictator.

Mainstream media comrades have always called January 6th an insurrection and attack, albeit the billions of dollars of damages incurred nationwide by BLM and Antifa communists is never mentioned. According to Roll Call’s article of April 2021, “Capitol hill lawmakers were grappling with how best to respond to the rising threat of violent white supremacy nationally.  Lawmakers are divided over the need for a new domestic terrorism law.  Every single democrat agrees that right-wing violence has become an alarming problem.”

What absolute rubbish!

The psychological projection propaganda used by Saul Alinsky acolytes in politics and media has much of America’s electorate fooled enough to believe conservatives are a danger.  Yet, every violent insurrection in America during the COVID nightmare over George Floyd’s death was perpetrated by communists whose aim is to incite riots and division.  The democrats, mainstream media and Justice Departments supported them, bailed them out, dismissed charges and squelched the truth of their roots and actions.

Church Committee Report – 1976

The 1970’s Church Committee Report details the dark history of the corrupt FBI, NSA and CIA propaganda and political interference.  The Committee was chaired by Frank Church (D-ID) and Vice Chairman, John G. Tower (R-TX).

The Church Committee’s reports have been said to constitute the most extensive review of intelligence activities ever made available to the public. Much of the contents were classified, but over 50,000 pages were declassified under the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992.

Writing for LifeSite News, on August 4, 2022, Robert L. Kinney III notes that the “agency previously engaged in ‘covert efforts to influence social policy and political action’ and at times used methods ‘reminiscent of the tactics of totalitarian regimes,’” as noted in an April 1976 Senate report called “Intelligence Activities and the Rights of Americans.”

The following two paragraphs are from the Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities.

After holding 126 full committee meetings, 40 subcommittee hearings, interviewing some 800 witnesses in public and closed sessions, and combing through 110,000 documents, the committee published its final report on April 29, 1976. Investigators determined that, beginning with President Franklin Roosevelt’s administration and continuing through the early 1970s, “intelligence excesses, at home and abroad,” were not the “product of any single party, administration, or man,” but had developed as America rose to a become a superpower during a global Cold War.

“Intelligence agencies have undermined the constitutional rights of citizens,” the final report concluded, “primarily because checks and balances designed by the framers of the Constitution to assure accountability have not been applied.” In a separate appended view, Senator Tower acknowledged “intelligence excesses” and the “need for expanded legislative, executive, and judicial involvement in intelligence policy and practices.”

The reports on the intelligence agencies are 46 years old, and confirm that they are the most weaponized and politicized agencies against the American people and our Constitutional Republic.  They are a menace and a danger to our citizens.

They are today’s American Gestapo.

Armed U.S. Agencies

The DOJ has been weaponized for years, and every single one of our 18 intelligence agencies is likewise politicized, including our military.  Many are funded by largely classified budgets.  Agencies you’d never suspect would need firearms are now armed.

John Watson’s American Thinker article of June 18, 2020, Where are All the Guns and Ammo Purchased Under Obama, gives us a good idea of the arming of civilian government employees during the Obama regime.  The author quotes Obama’s troublesome statement during his campaign.

We cannot continue to rely only on our military … we’ve got to have a civilian security force just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.  We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set.

Like Herman Goring, Obama and Biden are creating an armed federal police force.

Watson then continues and lists all the various agencies who are now heavily armed, as well as the largess spent on ammunition and firearms. (The government purchased over a billion pieces of ammunition, causing a national shortage.)  Agencies include the Small Business Association, The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, The Department of Health and Human Services, the Smithsonian, Social Security, the Forest Service, National Park Service, and Inspector General’s Office and tons more.

Some of these agencies are armed with sophisticated weaponry normally carried by special forces.

Are these government employees the new “civilian security force?”

The American Gestapo?

The Department of Homeland Security, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the IRS are three of the largest and most dangerous agencies to citizens of the once free republic, and they’re all heavily armed.

DHS

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) put out a National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin on Feb. 7, 2022, stating that, “The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors. These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence.”

No mention of Antifa or BLM.

On August 16, 2022 James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas released a leaked DHS document on Domestic Violent Extremists (DVEs) in wake of the FBI’s raid of Trump’s Florida residence.  Here is the leaked bulletin.

  • Document lists perception of “government overreach” and “election fraud” as red flags.
  • “The threats we have observed, to date, underscore that DVEs may view the 2022 midterm election as an additional flashpoint around which to escalate threats against perceived ideological opponents, including federal law enforcement personnel.”
  • “Information contained in this intelligence bulletin is for official use only. No portion of this bulletin should be released to the media, the general public, or over nonsecure Internet servers.  Release of this material could adversely affect or jeopardize investigative activities.”

Again, communist groups, Antifa and BLM, are never mentioned.  However, Fox News tells us that the rosary has now become an extremist symbol, because they claim Catholics are a growing contingent of Christian nationalism!  And just what is wrong with being a Christian nationalist?

ATF

Let us not forget the DOJ’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The ATF has a corrupt and abusive history, just as does the FBI and CIA.  Harry S. Truman, Stalin’s number one choice for American president, created the CIA by presidential directive in 1946.  (Page 41, Red Rat Race, by Morris Bealle)

An ATF agent allegedly created an illegal gun registry of Black Metal Firearms in Mesa, Arizona with her personal cell phone.  That has been the agency’s goal as they have acquired nearly one billion 4473 “background check” forms to pin down how many and which Americans are purchasing firearms.  This action by the ATF is an attempt to establish a permanent National Gun Registry, the first step towards outright gun confiscation.  It is illegal, and unconstitutional, but they have it.  The ATF was involved in the Waco Siege and Operation Fast and Furious, which left U.S. Border Patrol Agent, Brian Terry, and hundreds of Mexican citizens dead.  The ATF needs to be eliminated.

IRS

As for the Internal Revenue Service, the recent $770 billion Inflation Reduction Act. will double the size of the IRS, and authorize it to hire up to 87,000 additional employees as well as an additional $80 billion in funding. The IRS currently has 93,654 employees.  Their budget last year was $12.6 billion.  On August 10th, National Review exposed the job listing for new agents “willing to use deadly force,” and then the IRS pulled the job post.  Open the Books investigation showed that by 2019, the agency had spent over 20 million on guns, ammo, and military style equipment.  How much more will $80 billion purchase?

Watch the alleged IRS “training” video here:

Any idea of what all those new armed agents are going to do?  Their targets are defined as domestic terrorists. The DOJ classifies them as conservatives and Trump supporters along with parents who are unhappy with what is happening in the government controlled public schools.

The elite want the middle class totally destroyed, losing 46% of small businesses during COVID and the Antifa and BLM riots wasn’t enough for them.  What is left of America’s small businesses will also be a new target…the harassment will be endorsed and promoted by Biden’s weaponized agencies.  They’re coming after those earning $400K or less.

Small businesses operate on a tight marginal basis, not having the ability to survive a full up audit.  In his August 7, 2022 article, John Hinderacker of Power Line believes that the new hires will be used like Lois Lerner was doing, going after conservative 501(c)(3) groups and political campaigns in order to shift the political wars in the democrats’ favor.  Lois Lerner ended up being a test run, a successful test run congressional democrats just turned into a business model.

Most law-abiding citizens know they have something to fear from a state agency that doesn’t concern itself with due process, has no regard for your privacy and is empowered to target anyone it wants without any genuine oversight.

An American Gestapo.

The Enemies List

Trump allies and constitutional conservatives are the enemies of the illegitimate neo-Marxist collectivists.  Aaron Kliegman’s August 17th article in John Solomon’s Just the News documents the blacklisting of conservatives who have been targeted by the DOJ.

From Mike Flynn to Rudy Giuliani, from Roger Stone and Paul Manafort to Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon, a long list of Trump allies and Biden critics have been probed, raided, handcuffed, charged, and jailed by the Justice Department.

John Solomon’s June 6th article chronicled the two-tiered justice system.  In just one comparison, Eric Holder escaped punishment of contempt of congress charges for not complying with a congressional subpoena in the Fast and Furious scandal and his own DOJ department failed to prosecute him. Ten years later, academic Peter Navarro “was handcuffed and shackled after being indicted for contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena.”

Worse yet, those who supported our 45th president and went to the January 6th, 2021 rally are excoriated as lawbreakers in what was called an insurrection worse than Pearl Harbor and 9/11.  John Solomon’s January 26, 2022 article tells us, “Trump gave the order to ‘make sure’ January 6 rally was ‘safe event,’ Pentagon memo shows.” Former career federal prosecutor, David Sullivan said the entire hearings lacked an accountability process and both the Justice Department and congressional hearings raised questions of fairness and gave viewers a reason to tune out what proved to be “very scripted” interrogations. Mr. Sullivan called the hearings Stalinist.

American Tyranny

John Guandolo stated the following in his August 10, 2022 article on his website, Understanding the Threat, “The Stalinist tactics should not surprise us.  Why?”

This is the same federal government that:

  • Put America in debt to the tune of over $30 TRILLION dollars.
  • Let over 100,000 illegals into America each month while paying them and transporting them across America on the tax payer dime.
  • Funds the Iranian regime so it can develop a nuclear weapon.
  • Funds and supports terrorists of Al Qaeda, Hamas, the Taliban and others.
  • Supported the Chinese communist Black Lives Matter organization as it burned down American cities and killed American citizens on the streets.
  • Told us “There is no organized Antifa” while Antifa burned down American cities and killed American citizens.
  • Illegally electronically surveilled the President of the United States, his family and his staff with no prosecutions after 6 years.
  • Calls the MAGA Movement “the most dangerous political movement in American history” and targets Patriots for prosecution and persecution while wittingly lets felons free from jail and fails to prosecute high government officials for treason, sedition, and other crimes.

And the list goes on.

Conclusion

Love him or hate him, Donald Trump has been a target of the left since 2015 and the raid on Mar-A-Lago was an obvious abuse of politicized power.  This easily should have and could have gone through attorneys, but the DOJ loves using their comrades in the media to convince the propagandized and deliberately dumbed down Americans that Trump is a criminal with their explosive use of force.

Why would they take the family passports?  Why would they take Roger Stone’s pardon when it was on the front page of the Washington Post? Why would they take declassified materials? Because the DOJ, i.e., Attorney General Merrick Garland gave them license to do so through approval of the warrant by Judge Bruce Reinhart who should have recused himself.

Trump is the target, but what has been done to him and the people who worked for him can be done to the average citizen.  This time it’s not just our Jewish brethren, it’s all of us.

The enemies of freedom have created Obama’s civilian security force.

They are the American Gestapo.

LAND OF THE FREE STUFF: New York City Gives Away Cell Phones and Healthcare To Illegals

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Nothing is free, we, the taxpayer are paying for this treason. We are suffering record inflation, skyrocketing food and fuel prices and brutal violent crimes but illegals who break federal laws are being put first in NYC.

Hundreds of migrants line up at NYC hospital for health care, food, free phones

By Kyle Schnitzer and David Meyer, The NY Post, August 21, 2022:

Hundreds of migrants — at least some bused to the Big Apple by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott — lined up outside Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx on Sunday to get health care coverage, food and other items including school supplies and free phones.

The event, organized by the city hospital system, was billed as a “resource and family fun day” for the migrants and their children, many of whom have come to New York City in droves in recent weeks.

“I came to New York about three days ago. I am a welder, and I am looking for work here,” Venezuelan refugee Adrian Medina, 32, said through a translator.
These are people/families coming from Colombia, Honduras and other Latin American countries, some came looking for better living conditions, others running away from dangerous conditions.
Migrants were provided healthbcare coverage, food and other items including school supplies and free phones in the Bronx Sunday.
Tomas E. Gaston

Medina said he arrived on a bus that left Texas five days ago, after a solo trek from his home country that included six days of walking in the jungle.

Now living at Bellevue Men’s Shelter, Medina said he saw a flier for the event there. He was waiting in line for ice cream when he spoke to The Post.

“I’m feeling a little bit better now, but when I first arrived, I wasn’t good,” he said. “We did not sleep or eat well.”

A fellow Venezuelan, Luis Quintana, 48, said he came to the event “to get an ID and health insurance” after arriving in the city from Texas on Friday.

“I’m feeling well now, but I wasn’t. I was uncomfortable on the bus. The bathroom on the bus was closed for several hours,” Quintana said.

“I came to New York to get away from the delinquency in Venezuela, cops in the streets, armed people. I want to work and progress.”

A couple and their two children, also from Venezuela, were waiting patiently in line in the hope of getting legal assistance to help them stay in the US.

“We came here today looking for help from a lawyer for political asylum

Elon Musk Subpoenas Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey

/in , , , , , , , /by

The battle of the tech titans. get the popcorn and champagne.

I’ve been banned on twitter so you know who we are rooting for. Dorsey has much to answer for. #TeamElon.

Elon Musk Subpoenas Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey

By: Jack Phillips, The Epoch Times, August 22, 2022:

Elon Musk has subpoenaed former Twitter CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey in the latest move in the legal battle over Musk’s deal to buy Twitter for $44 billion, according to court documents submitted on Aug. 22.

The filing with Delaware’s Court of Chancery seeks documents, messages, emails, financial statements, online chat or instant messages, recordings, and other forms of communication from Dorsey, who stepped down as Twitter’s chief executive last year.

Dorsey is asked to produce documents and communications “reflecting, referring to, or relating to Twitter’s use of any other user metric other than mDAU (monetizable daily active users), including but not limited to, daily active users” and any other Twitter metric that monitors active users on the social media website, according to the court filing.

Dorsey has yet to issue a public comment on the subpoena.

Dozens of other people, banks, and entities have been issued subpoenas by Twitter and Musk in the escalating legal fight. The trial is scheduled to start in mid-October and last for five days.

A recent ruling issued by Judge Kathaleen McCormick gave Musk’s attorneys access to information from Kayvon Beykpour, Twitter’s former head of consumer product. Musk’s team last week issued a subpoena to another former Twitter executive, Bruce Falck. Both Falck and Beykpour were fired on the same day in mid-May by CEO Parag Agrawal, according to a company spokesperson.

Twitter filed a lawsuit against Musk in a bid to force the tech billionaire to complete the purchase of the social media platform months after the two parties announced the deal. Musk, meanwhile, has countersued Twitter.

“Rather than bear the cost of the market downturn, as the merger agreement requires, Musk wants to shift it to Twitter’s stockholders,” Twitter’s lawyers wrote in the lawsuit. “Since signing the merger agreement, Musk has repeatedly disparaged Twitter and the deal, creating business risk for Twitter and downward pressure on its share price.”

Musk has said Twitter wasn’t truthful about how many users are made up of spam and automated accounts. Twitter said that Musk’s claims about bot accounts are an excuse to walk away.

In April, on the same day Musk and Twitter first agreed to the deal, Dorsey wrote that he favors Musk’s buyout of the firm he co-founded.

If anyone were to be in charge of Twitter, he wrote at the time, “Elon is the singular solution I trust. I trust his mission to extend the light of consciousness.”

The America Project Sponsoring Georgia 2020 Election Lawsuits

/in , , , , , , , /by

The America Project, created by Overstock.com founder Patrick Byrne and General Michael Flynn, will be sponsoring upcoming lawsuits from Voters Organized for Trusted Elections in Georgia relating to the fraud that occurred during the 2020 election. TAP is a 501c4 non-profit dedicated to improving election integrity in the United States and rooting out voter fraud.

ATLANTA, GA. /PRNewswire/ — Georgia residents upset about the election fraud that occurred during the 2020 elections are taking the next step to identifying those involved in weakening election integrity and voter fraud in 2020. Numerous independent watchdog groups and citizen led investigations have already determined a myriad of fraudulent voting activity or shortfalls in election integrity, but lawsuits from Voters Organized for Trusted Elections in Georgia, sponsored by The America Project, could provide even more details to help uncover the who, what, where, when, and why.

VoterGA is currently involved in several lawsuits regarding the voting machines used in the 2020 elections, the shortcomings of Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger, and several other key points of concern for any Georgia resident who wants honest and fair elections leading into the 2022 midterm elections.

TAP’s Joe Flynn has been monitoring the VoterGA legal efforts over the past few months and is excited to become more involved as the cases progress.

“We have a lot on the board right now and it is crucial that VoterGA has the resources, infrastructure, and legal team necessary to get down to the bottom of what really happened in 2020. The America Project is honored to provide our support, both financially and with our ground army of volunteers,” explained Flynn.

Garland Favorito, the founder of VoterGA, welcomes the support from TAP.

“This is a team effort for the betterment, security, and streamlining of the elections process in Georgia. There is still a lot left to uncover, a lot more players to be unmasked, a lot more accountability needed before we can feel secure in future elections. Stomping out fraud, improving the integrity of our elections, and eliminating voter fraud is something that will benefit every Georgia resident. We cannot allow any more time to pass and demand immediate action from our elected representatives, elected officials, political leaders,” said Favorito.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is Playing a Substantial Role in Local Elections

/in , , , , , /by

I’m very happy that our great Gov. Ron DeSantis has taken such an active role in local elections.  As you know, he has endorsed Rick Nolte for Polk County School Board.

Florida’s primary election a referendum on DeSantis after governor gets heavily involved

Zac Anderson • USA TODAY NETWORK – FLORIDA

Gov. Ron DeSantis isn’t on the Aug. 23 primary ballot, but many of his endorsed candidates are, and he’s taking significant steps to help them, making the election partly a referendum on Florida’s chief executive.

Former President Donald Trump has worked to transform the political landscape and build a loyal bench of supporters by endorsing in a wide range of races and traveling the country to boost those candidates.

DeSantis is emulating that strategy in Florida. He has endorsed in at least 34 races and, like Trump, is following through with campaign help for his preferred candidates, including holding rallies for them, paying for advertising and donating directly to their campaigns.

[ … ]

“This governor is extremely popular with the grassroots and rank-and-file Republicans and those primary voters look for his opinion on people to vote for,” said Leon County GOP Chair and Florida GOP chairman of chairs Evan Power. “I think he’s used that power to push for active conservatives who share his view of Florida. It’s something Republicans have wanted for a long time, Republicans who are willing to fight for a conservative agenda.”

To Stop Monkeypox The CDC Must Mandate Gay and Bisexual Men Wear Chastity Belts

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Dylan Housman from the Daily Caller on August 19, 2022 reported,

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a study Friday suggesting that people wear masks to protect themselves from monkeypox despite growing evidence the virus is transmitted sexually.

In a July 29th, 2022 article titled Cases of Gay STD Monkeypox Reported in Children noted,

How did children contract a predominately gay sexually transmitted disease? And why is no one asking that question?

  • Men who have sex with men are at the highest risk of infection right now from monkeypox, according to the WHO.
  • About 99% of cases are among men, and at least 95% of those patients are men who have sex with other men, according to WHO official Rosamund Lewis.
  • WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said men who have sex with men should consider limiting their sexual partners to lower their risk of infection and reduce the spread. The WHO chief called on media, public health authorities and government to fight stigma and discrimination, which he said will only fuel the outbreak.

Currently, HHS documents describe the current administration’s promotion of transgender ideology for children “at any age or stage.” Those documents also describe what it calls appropriate treatments for transgender adolescents, including: “‘Top’ surgery – to create male-typical chest shape or enhance breasts;” and “‘Bottom’ surgery – surgery on genitals or reproductive organs, facial feminization or other procedures.”

This is why we are finding children coming down with the Monkeypox.

The following tweet shows men in New York City lined up to get the Monkeypox vaccine:

Here’s a video asking if the Monkeypox is the next HIV-AIDS, planned out 5 years ago:

Finally, here is an August 16th, 2022 article titled First Dog Infected With Monkeypox After ‘Sharing Bed’ with Gay Men in which Jim Hoft, from The Gateway Pundit reported,

Scientists have reported the first human-to-pet transmission of monkeypox when the dog of a gay French couple became infected after sharing a bed with its infected owners.

Early this summer, the 4-year-old Italian greyhound tested positive for the disease, not long after its French owners began experiencing symptoms, according to reports.

It is suspected that the gay men, ages 44 and 27, caught the virus as a result of having sexual contact with other men during their non-monogamous relationship.

“One man is Latino, aged 44 years, and lives with HIV with undetectable viral loads on antiretrovirals; the second man is White, aged 27 years, and HIV-negative,” according to a report published last week in the journal The Lancet.

Read more.

If the CDC is serious about its motto “Safer • Healthier • People” then, following the science gay and bisexual men must be the primary targets for stopping the spread of Monkeypox into the general population and infecting children, dogs, other animals and women.

To do this the easiest way of insuring that gays and bisexuals don’t have sex with other gays, bisexuals, children, animals and straight women is for them to wear a chastity belt. Chastity is the best defense against Monkeypox.

The chastity belt, along with vaccines, can help stop this new “pandemic” from spreading out of control.

If the CDC does not act quickly then more gay and bisexual men will undoubtably contract the Monkeypox disease and then spread it!

Don’t say we didn’t warn you. Better safe than sorry!

The Ivy League Is Broken and Should Not Be Reclaimed

/in , , , , , , /by

Two law professors from Harvard and Yale wrote in the New York Times last week that our Constitution is “broken” and should not be reclaimed.  Not only that, the whole notion of constitutionalism – the idea we should have ANY constitution – should be thrown out.  This is the logical conclusion of the thinking of the Progressive Left which has been pushing toward direct democracy for more than a hundred years.

It’s not clear what the professors would do with the current Constitution, but they outline a number of steps they would like to see taken.  First, make the Constitution easier to amend to inject more democracy into it.  Create more states in the Union to help make this happen.  Next, reorganize the Congress to make it more democratic and reduce the power of the Senate so it could not obstruct the will of the People as expressed in the House.  This would put the basic structure of government, including how presidents are elected, into the hands of today’s voters.  Only then do we get to the glorious Progressive future where we are no longer beholden to the past, present and future demands are fully met, abortion and labor rights  are guaranteed, and values like racial equality and environmental justice would be protected – all achieved through ordinary statute without having to bother with a constitution.  Then society can undergo constant reinvention and no longer be chained to old ideas.

It is folly, the professors say, for Progressives to try to work within the existing constitutional framework which has pesky things like the Electoral College, the Senate, and conservative Supreme Court majorities, which are mere impediments to be brushed away in the new nonconstitutional order.  It’s time to radically alter the rules of the game, they say – time to openly defy the Constitution and usher in total democracy without constraints.  Wow, how come they haven’t been arrested for insurrection, yet?

All of this might sound pretty good, if you were born yesterday.  The Founders studied every constitution known to humanity and rejected direct democracy as completely unworkable.  It invariably descends into mob rule and the tyranny of the majority tramples the individual – the most important minority of all – as well as individual rights.  It’s rich that these professors use their constitutional rights to speak their minds and earn a living to trash the Constitution.  What if new congressional majorities decide the good professors should be silenced and canceled?  If you throw out individual rights, they would have no recourse.  How much do you think they would like unconstrained popular rule, then?

What if new congressional majorities did other things the professors didn’t like?  What if it became a conservative majority governing from the Right and saying things like ‘climate change is a phony narrative and we’re going to throw out every law and policy based on it’?  The professors would be back arguing for a constitution to keep this from happening.  Which is why I can’t take their argument seriously – it’s just left-wing expediency to advance Progressive policy goals.

Then there’s the notion that society needs constant reinvention at the fundamental level, 24-7.  Congress settles the basic structure of government and fundamental values one day only to turn it all upside down the next.  Who wants to live in a system where the rules change by the minute?  Change, change, change.  I first ran into this while studying the Marxist theorist Grace Lee Boggs of Detroit.  She was all about constant and perpetual change.  I’m sorry, but the desire for constant change is pathological.  It’s sick.  Society does not need constant uproar at a fundamental level every alternate Tuesday and Thursday.

Some old ideas are pretty good, like having a roof over your head instead of sleeping in the park at night.  But the professors are right – some old ideas aren’t worth preserving.  Harvard and Yale – established by dead white males of European descent three or four centuries ago – those are old ideas, too.  As long as we’re throwing out old ideas, why don’t we start with Harvard and Yale?  If the Marxist claptrap we’re hearing from the professors is any indication, the Ivy League is broken and should not be reclaimed.

Judge Calls Trump Raid ‘Unprecedented,’ Formally Rejects DOJ Plea To Keep Things Under Wraps

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

UPDATE: Trump Files Motion Requesting ‘Special Master’ to Review Docs Seized in FBI Mar-A-Lago Raid

U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart rejected the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) argument Monday to keep the Mar-a-Lago search warrant affidavit under wraps, saying the government has the burden of proof to show why parts of the affidavit must be sealed.

The FBI raided the Florida home of Former President Donald Trump on Aug. 8, sparking demands that the DOJ justify the unprecedented search.

Reinhart wrote the government can keep the search warrant affidavit, which would shed light on the reasoning behind the warrant, sealed so long as “there is a compelling governmental interest and the denial of access is ‘narrowly tailored to serve that interest.’”

The DOJ is arguing unsealing the affidavit “would jeopardize the integrity of its ongoing criminal investigation,” with Reinhart saying he is greatly weighing the fact that “there is a significant likelihood that unsealing the Affidavit would harm legitimate privacy interests” of those involved in the raid as well as witnesses as well the fact that Secret Service uses the premises at Mar-a-Lago and unsealing the affidavit could be a security threat.

Reinhart also noted, however, that “unsealing the Affidavit would promote public understanding of historically significant events. This factor weighs in favor of disclosure.”

Nonetheless, Reinhart said he believes the DOJ has “met its burden of showing good cause/a compelling interest that overrides any public interest in unsealing the full contents of the Affidavit” but that he “must consider whether there is a less onerous alternative to unsealing the entire document.”

Reinhart then noted the DOJ’s argument that redacting portions of the affidavit would cause an “undue burden on its resources” has not been justified.

“Given the intense public and historical interest in an unprecedented search of a former President’s residence, the Government has not yet shown that these administrative concerns are sufficient to justify sealing.”

“I therefore reject the Government’s argument that the present record justifies keeping the entire Affidavit under seal.”

Reinhart granted the DOJ’s request to give the agency the opportunity to propose redactions, with the deadline being August 25.

Reinhart previously announced he was considering allowing a redacted version of the affidavit to be released as various media outlets including The New York Times and CNN pushed for the document to be released in the interest of the public.

Where Are They Now? Understanding the Popularity of Ecstasy in 2022

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

For the past two decades of the 20th century, ecstasy was a very popular drug, especially for young adults involved in college nightlife. However, after the turn of the 21st century, this drug has seemed to drop off the radar entirely, replaced by headlines focusing on other drugs that pose a greater threat to public health. But is this a true modern assessment of ecstasy? Here’s how this drug is seeing a rise in popularity today and the surprising ways it’s happening.

Nostalgia

Fads come and go. Whether it’s clothing, music, or even lifestyle, we understand that the ways of the past hardly seem to remain the same through the decades. At one time, the disco movement was the context for widespread cocaine use, but disco was one of those fads that soon became eclipsed shortly after the early 1980s. Today, disco dance parties exist purely as a nostalgic nod to bygone days. Still, we can see that disco was important in giving rise to another genre, electronic dance music (EDM). So far, EDM has outpaced its disco predecessor and honed a drug identity that’s much more palatable than cocaine: ecstasy (MDMA).

While it’s true that drug use is subject to the same ebb and flow of trends as anything else, it would be a mistake to suggest that ecstasy has been phased out in 2022. While it might be harder to find a disco dance party at your nearest community event, chances are you won’t have the same problem finding a local market for cocaine. And if this is true, we shouldn’t assume that ecstasy use is dependent upon the ongoing music festivals and club raves that dominated the 1990s and early 2000s. Ecstasy is hardly a fad drug; it’s still in widespread use in 2022.

SOS for MDMA?

Ecstasy is a psychoactive drug, which is a chemical substance that changes how the brain communicates. It affects everything from perception, behavior, mood, and organ functions. People may have heard of ecstasy as a hallucination drug, but they might not be aware of other factors that put it into perspective. For one, ecstasy is a stimulant, which is in the same drug class as cocaine and meth. Stimulants speed up the central nervous system’s functions, meaning it increases communication between the brain and the rest of the body. This is in contrast to depressants like alcohol, benzos, and opioids, which suppress central nervous system communications.

Another surprising fact about ecstasy is just how similar it is to meth. When we understand what MDMA stands for (methylenedioxymethamphetamine), it is much easier to see why this is the case. Simply put, ecstasy is very similar to methamphetamine, chemically speaking. But it also shares that similarity with the hallucinogen mescaline.

Functionally, ecstasy produces some of the stimulation of meth along with the hallucinogen experience of mescaline. However, this drug also shares similarities with its counterparts in terms of the damage it can cause to its users. You can expect ongoing ecstasy use to harm the body’s serotonin system, meaning this pleasure drug can end up damaging a person’s ability to feel pleasure over time. Additionally, using stimulant drugs like ecstasy can cause a high risk of increased heart rate, blood pressure, and even organ failure if an overdose occurs. Additionally, ecstasy carries the same risk as other illicit drugs for being cut with lethal amounts of fentanyl.

With these things in mind, it looks like ecstasy is still a key player in 2022. This not only includes the countless occurrences of drug busts but also includes ecstasy use in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) therapy for soldiers in the United Kingdom, with the Biden Administration vowing to follow suit in the next two years. Those of us in the United States know that California is always a forerunner of drug legalization experiments, and the battle for ecstasy is no exception, even with current drug decriminalization bills at play.

Meanwhile, people are finding creative ways to bring ecstasy use into the mainstream. One example is a mock-up ecstasy shop in the Netherlands, simulating a storefront legal purchase of the drug to create conversations about the benefits of decriminalization. Even American athletes like Aaron Rodgers have recently spoken of the possible benefits of legal psychedelic drug use, including ecstasy.

Fact-Checking the Unknown

While it is unclear what exactly a pro-ecstasy world would look like, we need to keep in mind what we do know about ecstasy. Making the drug legal will not change the fact that it poses a high risk for addiction and abuse, both mentally and physically. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) ranks ecstasy as a Schedule I drug, meaning it carries a high potential for abuse and has no currently accepted medical use.

Marijuana shares a schedule l status with ecstasy on the federal level, even though it has been decriminalized in various U.S. states in recent years. While drug legalization is a trend in modern times, no legalization effort can take away the personal risk of drug abuse. If you or someone you know is dependent on ecstasy, it is important to seek out professional help as soon as possible.

New Jersey School District Purges the Name Thomas Jefferson the Founder of the Democratic Party

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Jefferson Elementary School in South Orange, New Jersey removes Jefferson’s name because he owned slaves.

They are destroying America right before our eyes, and the chattering class is cheering. This attack on our history is another front in the left’s treason against America. This is an enemy movement. And they should be treated as any domestic enemy actively engaging in warfare to destroy a nation. The left is trying to make Americans ashamed of our own culture and heritage, and to forget the contributions of Jefferson and the other Founding Fathers to the principle of representative government, as well as Jefferson’s own arguments in favor of the abolition of slavery. They will never find perfect people to memorialize, but that isn’t the point. The point is to get Americans to hate America.

New Jersey district removes Thomas Jefferson from elementary school name over slavery

by Timothy H.J. Nerozzi, Fox News, August 20, 2022:

An elementary school in New Jersey is changing its name after a successful year-long campaign to end its association with Thomas Jefferson due to his slave ownership.

Jefferson Elementary School in South Orange, New Jersey, is being renamed to Delia Bolden Elementary School to honor the first Black woman to graduate high school in the area, according to NJ Advance Media.

The name was selected by the student body from a list of choices. Many of the proposed names were of individuals related to the local area while others had no reference to a person living or dead.

Alternative choices included “Ruth Bader Ginsberg Elementary School” and “New Legacy Elementary School.”

The school claims the initiative was proposed and led by students. However, faculty members have been vocal in their support and assistance to the cause.

“I want to make that point that Thomas Jefferson owned over 600 slaves,” board member Qawi Telesford said at a June meeting on the issue. “He freed two while he was alive and seven after he died, which basically means I have a 1.5% chance of being free in Thomas Jefferson’s world. So, I am not thankful to him. I am thankful to the people who made sure that I could actually be free and be on the board with you today.”

The school’s superintendent applauded the decision….
