Sneaky devils - they invaded us syruptitiously!

Great brief with a beautiful opening salvo on our complicated relationship with our northern step brother from an arranged marriage. The Cuba insight from Ghost was very well done as well. Keep up the great work.

Sal_Peenx's avatar

Yeah, it was Cuba all along..., even though thousands fled, risking their lives, facing treacherous waters to get to the US. My guess is those who made it were the best and brightest. ? At the very least, they possessed the desire to breathe free. Thank you for giving us the heads-up on the next mind control gig (along with the stupid deadly lettuce scam -how stupid are we???)... brought to you by the back-stabbing GOP-labeled uniparty protectorate who are the TRUE haters of We The People... and, obviously, also haters of the Cuban people.

Cuba has been a bench player for a long time. My Rhodesian husband fought them in Rhodesia (Zim and Zambia now) back late sixties early seventies. And did Spencer Pratt point out Karen Basura Bass traveled several times to Cuba?

Wild Bill's avatar

I like your new name for the mayor. Most folks though don't speak any Spanish, so please permit me to enlighten them:

'Basura' is the Spanish word for garbage, or trash.

Thanks for the translation. 😊

Spencer originated it but I’m from Texas so hablo español. Seems accurate IMO

Howdy! 👋

Me, too. But my Spanish is woefully limited.

The Climate Cult began with Daddy Bush in 1992 at the Rio Summit and his Communist Ass signing the United States on to Agenda 21. Everyone likes to blame the Obama-Nation, but it all started in 1963 when Bush assassinated JFK and created the Bush/Clinton/Obama Pedophile Crime Syndicate.

Gary's avatar

Not disagreeing, just adding that the climate cult was alive and strong by the late 1960s, led to the creation of the EPA in 1970 and dire "Nuclear Winter" predictions that forecast global famine. This nonsense was part of what got Jimmy Carter and his famous cardigan elected in '77. But even before that - dating to the early 1960s - "Light Bulb Johnson" demanded that we reduce energy use (for the planet).

Jim Schout's avatar

The climate cult was started by Richard Nixon using ancient maritime laws concerning navigation ability. It was an overreach and required Congress to create the EPA.

The problem was the Congress didn’t want to be involved in making highly technical decisions that would be politically harmful for their careers so they put the EPA in charge of making those decisions. Over the years the standards kept changing. One pollutant would be defined and corrected which then brought a different one into the spotlight.

Carbon Dioxide was just another step in the process, but it wasn’t a pollutant. The EPA over stepped its role because the people at the EPA loved the job and the high pay. The last thing they were going to admit was they had succeeded in their job and were no longer in need of federal funding. They had firmly embedded themselves into the system and refused to give it up.

This is precisely how the deep state exists. Any attempt to remove them is war!

ALtab's avatar

Exactly as intended. This is how the infiltrators solidify their power.

Paul Modica's avatar

LBJ and Carter, both Bush puppets. That's why Carters almost entire cabinet was CFR Communists. LBJ was the Klan, so a Nazi just like Bush.

ALtab's avatar

And Bush was just the biggest puppet here. Still just a puppet.

Election rigging was rampant back then. Every right-leaming Texan knew that LBJ got into office on the dead Texans votes.

Good stuff.

ASHE your take on our 51st state is hilarious... I can never take our 51st state as our greatest adversary (although they may well be:-) because of great classical movies like "Canadian Bacon" and of course Bob and Doug McKenzie a couple of "hosers, EH". I don't want us to get too rabid a hatred going toward the Great White North because when they do officially become our 51st state and just like NY and Cali we are going to have to welcome them back to reality and help them assimilate into Common Sense:-)

Fun, Accelerate!

God Wins!

I would guess Alaska will take care of Alaska -- Canadians can't be as scary as grizzly and polar bears. Neil Young can eat more than one bag too. Cannot stand that person.

EU and NATO ripping apart -- so that is the sound I was hearing. I thought I was just adjusting the velcro strap on my brace. I love seeing countries no longer bending the knee to that which does not serve them. I applaud them......even if their motives aren't pure. Makes me think of the Apostle Paul in prison....when he talks about people preaching about Jesus for selfish ambition. He doesn't care about their motives because the gospel is being preached. I don't care about their motives as long as the deep state is being exposed.

"The fact that the State Department (synonymous with CIA) is now projecting all of these acts of treason onto other nations—in this moment, Cuba—reeks of desperation in ways that will need to be further unpackaged and discussed." What does this say about Rubio then? I realize that there are MANY people within the State Dept. Is he also cleaning house?

"The time has come for men to set aside these silly social cues and go back to being men. We should not be concerned with what low-testosterone losers and over-educated liberal women think about us and our political opinions. Hell, we shouldn't even care what normies in general think about us or our ideas. We should just do. We should just be. We should simply return to being men who build things—like civilization—and let the menstruating "men" who seethe scream into their pillows. Their opinions don't matter. Nobody respects them—history certainly won't.

We should stop paying them any mind at all. When they seethe, we should just turn and walk away." LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS!!

Great comments! I especially loved your velcro comment! And Rubio, I was wondering the same as I was reading when I came across your sentence expressing the very same thought! 👍👏💯

100% agree on Canada, Ashe. Bright will roll his eyes at me, but anyone attached to the Bank of England or the City of London(Carney) - completely unaccountable central globalist banking - is a suspect, not a leader.

Wild Bill's avatar

Carney is evil incarnate. [They] had to helicopter him in when it looked like the Tories under Pierre Poilievre would actually win Parliament, something like 225 seats to about 40 each for the Liberals, New Democrats and Bloc Quebecois. That would have been such a shellacking that the Tories might have controlled Canada for a generation.

And that was simply not allowed. So they brought in Carney and frauded the elections to get him in. As they do everywhere. I like Clandestine's view of how things are going to go here in the USA:

"The timeline is forming:

-Trump secures 2026 midterms

-US has legitimate election

-Dems get massacred

-American public see that the Dems’ popularity is an illusion propped up by fraud and propaganda

-Mass public awakening

-American public demand accountability

-Game over."

If it happens here, Canada might just have a chance at a return to normalcy. Since most Canadians are decent people, I hope this happens. If it does not, Alberta will probably leave; if they do (since Alberta pays the lion's share of the 'equalization payments' that subsidize Quebec) Quebec, having lost its grift, will probably leave too. (This system was set up to bribe Quebec and keep them from leaving Confederation. Every form of refuge has its price...) At that point, with two gaping holes in what was Canada, how can the rest of it survive as a nation? Even Carney can't fix that.

Carolyn's avatar

Always more to the story...you have to do a very deep dive going back to the end of WW2 and the guy who was head of the OSS, I think those were the initials, who headed the then CIA. His history, his religion, his actions following the end of the OSS and the beginning of the CIA. So many religion dots no one seems to want to connect. Marx, Hitler, Stalin, Mohammed, the Red Cross, the Jesuits, the Rothchilds.

—-Individual Canadians are just like the rest of the world’s population. There are good ones and evil ones. The Canadian government, like the Republicans here, are masters at hiding their true global roots, and as such, truly are our enemy. As we get closer to the globalists’ demise, we should be prepared for the Canadian government to be one of weapons deployed against us. The good news is they are just as far away from the UK as we are. Or as BB notes on the related republicans, ‘…the GOP will not become the vehicle of our ascension and the enemy’s absolution, then perhaps the task is to recognize with finality that it never truly was…’. Might be a key exposure as the Canada/US ‘breach’ increases….

—-Ghost has nailed this one as it applies to all the countries the cabal has infiltrated, ‘It is critical that we adequately isolate the Deep State elements from the earnest populist nationalist movement, so that they can be fully exposed and destroyed.’ We must NOT forget this distinction, here or elsewhere.

—-I suspect Russia has had a part in collecting and safeguarding the election fraud evidence. (Remember, Snowden sought, and received, asylum there. No coincidence.)

—-I’m with Ashe. The climate and weather have long been weaponized against us, at least 70 years that we know of. What evil is in the hearts of men. Crimes against humanity and the world created for us. We’ve had multiple big storms bypass our thirsty grounds for the last two weeks. Wasn’t the first and likely won’t be the last until it’s stopped.

—-And Bill Ayers, of the unpunished Weather Underground fame, was key to Obama’s rise, and policies. I’ve considered for years that Cuba was under the brutal hand of our CIA (and its personal tool, the State department as well as the other various tools the cabal created, supported and activated), forced to do what the CIA, et.,al., ‘couldn’t do’! Chris Paul has found the smoking arsenal! The CIA was likely key in the cabal’s extremely opportunistic approach after the fall of communism. Ghost is 💯 correct: ‘Simply put: these traitors must face harsh justice and severe retribution for the crimes they have committed against our country and our people.’

—-Alien Terrorist Removal Court. Omar and all of her ilk should take notice.😏

—-Our Fearless Tiger has the bottom line regarding the US citizenry, ‘…increasingly-sovereign American Mind that has grown tired of the whole charade.’ Yes, indeed, we are.

—-Ghost has the overall bottom line today, ‘We should stop paying them any mind at all. When they seethe, we should just turn and walk away.’ Of course, Jesus directs us to pray for them. We can do that as we ignore them, however.

Has anyone else here noticed the ranting on the financial channels about J.D. Vance’s talk about Trump’s financial beliefs? J.D. said Trump is embracing the Alexander Hamilton approach and rejecting Milton Friedman’s. Larry Kudlow’s hair along with the rest of the financial expert community is on fire! They all agree that J.D. Vance has gone off the rails and has somehow gotten himself confused. Trump needs to grab him and set him straight.

This proves to me that our financial gurus are not clued into the truth. They are totally confused, and that is excellent. For, you see, they believe that Milton Friedman was one of the most brilliant, conservative, and rational economists of the 20th century. He was their undisputed mentor. Surely J.D. Vance is a total idiot!

I cannot stop laughing every time I see the clip of our V.P. saying Trump is tossing out Milton and bringing in Alexander! Out with the new, in with the old! It proves we are onto the truth!

Alexander Hamilton knew how to defeat the City of London and that was what he proposed for America’s economic future. But, he was killed by Aaron Burr over their political differences in 1804. Was Aaron Burr influenced by London? I have no idea, but there were strong influences by that time wanting to manipulate the Constitution. And since then the country has been manipulated to give more and more power back to London’s bankers.

Milton Friedman was born in 1912 so he had no knowledge of what Congress was doing to undermine America. He was educated in the most Leftist of the Left wing universities and even received a Nobel Prize in Economics in 1976! He was considered a genius, but he was basing his opinions on a broken design. His entire life was lived in a system based on a fiat currency and that tainted his vision.

What I heard from J.D. was, “You can kiss our old fiat system goodbye. Alexander Hamilton’s system is back!” My question is, “Who else heard what I heard?” To me, that is a huge problem of a failure to communicate.

ALtab's avatar

My husband watches the financial things, but I may have to watch Kudlow with him this afternoon! I concur you are likely 💯correct on this! It fits the pattern of exposing the lies and our programming. Thank you, Jim! Made me smile bigly this morning!!

Jim Schout's avatar

Get your husband’s take on what I posted. If he watches Kudlow he will have seen the hair on fire and both Art Laffer and Steve Moore sitting there agreeing.

I sincerely love all three experts and the Laffer curve is a key to understanding the weakness of “Taxing the rich”. These guys are all top notch financial gurus. But, they are all educated in our Leftist system’s universities. They have all accepted our fiat currency as a “given”.

Quite frankly it is like accepting man made Carbon Dioxide production as proof of global warming. Basing a fake “reality” leads us into even bigger fakes. Our government loses money on paper each and every year, but our fiat currency makes it possible because all Congress needs to do is to vote to raise the debt ceiling. Then, Larry, Art, and Steven raise Hell over the craziness! But, the craziness just continues and they just move on. No one ever questions the system’s basic design flaw. 113 years has been long enough for America to accept the craziness.

ALtab's avatar

Absolutely!! My exact observations of these guys.

I’ll ask my husband what his perspective is.

Dick's avatar

Apt analogy, Jim. Thanks yet again!

A question:

In your perception, how does one shift wisely into the real emerging system that we see coming?

In my particular situation, My father set up a family trust to keep as much of his hard-earned money in the family for us and our grandkids & I'm keeping it going for thei great-grand kids in about 20 years. It was set up precisely because he understood that fake fiat system and used it to his advantage knowing that the future meant ever cheaper dollars & taxes. It was the water he swam in, like those gurus, seeing it as the perpetual system he had to both use and try to evade & outwit.

I'm no economist (understatement), am quite a tightwad with myself, & careful but generous with others.

My instinctual strategy has always been to avoid debt. I hate the slavery of indebtedness and theft of interest. So,I own my home, live modestly and never, ever borrow money. But the trust, set up to be maintained for needs (schooling, medical, business & emergencies) is in equities (future & long-term, solid well-ordered companies), homes for my offspring & some banked cash (not unlike many fortunate seniors). My trustee is a wise and good close friend of the family for over 45 years. But I doubt he understands the shift taking place.

Sorry for over-explaining & prevailing on your good grace!

I want to be a wise and thoughtful steward of all that God has provided.

Jim Schout's avatar

I think you are in excellent position just where you are and I wouldn’t change a thing. Actually your situation sounds exactly like my own except I was the one setting up the trust and not my parents.

As for what you call the coming emerging system, I cannot guarantee anything nor can anyone else. However, I believe the key is in those cargo planes of Gold that Trump reclaimed. What needs to happen is a return to an asset backed currency. That will put a real collar on Congress because they will not be able to just vote to print more money. But, that also says the budget must be very close to balanced each year and our entitlements have made that almost impossible. Hopefully the fraud that is being uncovered will go a long way in getting the budget under control.

If we look back at 1933 when FDR made the ownership of Gold coinage illegal you could go into any bank and receive Gold in exchange for the paper money. Actually that created a problem because it locked in the value of Gold at $20/ounce. But what if the miners were unwilling to find more Gold because the number of hours needed to mine one ounce was not as lucrative as just getting a job doing some less strenuous work?

This is one reason I believe the bankers knew we had to break the tie between our currency and Gold. Our economy was somewhat limited by the Gold supply and that depended on finding more every year. At least that was a rational argument.

America still had Silver and you could exchange a dollar for Silver coins until 1965, but that also had to end for the fiat currency to allow Congress to deficit spend. I believe JFK was killed because he was planning to issue Silver Certificates to replace our fiat currency. LBJ quickly put a stop to that and, in fact, took us in the opposite direction by introducing clad coins of little real value.

So, here we are in debt to the tune of $40 Trillion. The good news is we can go back to the Gold and Silver standards dictated by the Constitution. Alexander Hamilton’s idea was for our government to be the provider of capital to industry. If we think about this idea, it puts our currency into the position of being backed by our industry. The profitability of our business would become a partial backing because the business community would be paying back their debt with the profits of the business.

This is what London had to stop in my opinion. And, look what Trump is proposing for America. New borns will be invested before they are potty trained! He talks about Sovereign Wealth Funds and $19.2 Trillion of new industries. It’s not like he’s failing to be transparent is he?

So, this is why I think J.D. Vance is blatantly saying Milton Friedman’s economy is dead and Alexander Hamilton’s is where the future lies.

All that needs to happen is Trump will call a press conference and hold up a “New dollar”. It will look just like the old dollar but it will not say “Federal Reserve Note” on it. It will be a U.S. Treasury Note like we had in 1900. Nothing needs to change and no one needs to do anything because a dollar will still be a dollar.

However, since Congress cannot print more of them, they will be of a fixed value without inflation. Over time the dollar can become more valuable because it is backed by real assets that can be bought with them. If Gold goes up in price, the dollar does too. But why would Gold go up? It is all supply and demand working in our free enterprise system.

So, that’s what I think. Will it happen? Who knows?

Jim Schout's avatar

Thank you! That answers my question about Aaron Burr and his loyalty to London. Actually, that article answers a huge number of questions concerning where we are today.

I was stuck by one statement, “The United States was bankrupt, had no industry, etc.” guess what describes us today?

One other point of interest . The Chase of J.P. Morgan-Chase was Abraham Lincoln’s Treasury secretary and persuaded Lincoln to issue his Greenbacks to fund the Civil War. Greenbacks were a fiat currency and created great hardship to remove from our economy. Chase’s portrait is on the one dollar bill in place of Washington.

"I know Vance is Donald Trump’s Vice President.

So was Mike Pence.

My trust does not transfer from Trump to those around him, who have been placed into their respective roles for a reason, no doubt, but not always for the reasons we believe at first glance."

Burning Bright

BB, I agree 💯.

But if Vance is the salve that draws out the poisonous influence of the DSA, I say let the man cook. Or maybe I should say, let the medicine work. Just don't put him up to run in 2028. At least, not yet.

His association with Thiel is troubling to me

Wild Bill's avatar

Thiel is a two-edged sword. I don't believe we know the whole story on him. A professional associate has worked with him on several projects, and does not seem to believe he is evil.

As with the Palantir in Tolkien's world, such things can be used for good and bad.

Bleighv05 aka Believe05's avatar

As with any one of us as well. All it takes is trust in the wrong person or thing....there but for the grace of God go I.

Wild Bill's avatar

I believe that God is going to be giving us clarity in the coming time. Forcing the evil ones out into the light, for all to see. Actually it is already happening; many here I believe are starting to see.

Bleighv05 aka Believe05's avatar

For the most part, I agree. I see bits and pieces. The place I find the least eyes to see are in my church. All they see is how chosen Israel is and everyone else is wrong. Makes me sad. In time.....in time I pray they see the truth. And that I see the truth. His truth -- not what anyone has said the truth is.

Dick's avatar

Thiel is a kind of idiot savant -- elevated to a demigod, treated as a visionary genius and I think he may earnestly believe that part. But very calculating as well.

Success in those bloated realms is often greased. (Cherchez la grease gun.)

His theology is bizarre and unexamined.

He, like the wanna-be Yarvin and their ilk and all the tech oligarchs should get the same treatment Ghost recommends.

What a sad & sorry individual.

Kmari's avatar

Well I assume he is familiar with grease. All the reason to not trust

Bleighv05 aka Believe05's avatar

Is he still connected to Thiel or is that a thing of the past? I have been concerned about that too. I feel like I've heard him distance himself from Thiel in......some interview......at some point in the recent past. No memory of who or when. I just seem to recall hearing that. If I remember, I will share.

One word: Thiel.

Ghost (and Chris), Cuba is my latest nut to crack in terms of understanding who really pulls the strings there. Knowing that Chavez overthrew Bautista, a CIA backed operative can be confusing in contrast with The Chavez regime. However we know that the CIA has been deeply involved in anti Cuba-Chavez ever since then. The history of CIA backed Cubans who were operating out of JMWave I Miami, the biggest CIA office is proof of the level of CIA manipulation of that country using exile elites under Bautista. Also the Bay of Pigs and the continued assault of the CIA on Cuban territory is well known. According to my research the flight Raul Chavez ordered shot down was a CIA flight by a group that was founded by them. Cuba had been warning of these flight incursions that were logged with the FAA so there are records that this conflict with the CIA goes back a long time. What exactly it has evolved into over these many years is worth a much better deep dive. Research into who runs and owns Gaese, the company that controls most of Cuba economy is worth a deep dive!

THE DEVILS MINIONS ARE DROPPING NAMES, BUT GOD HAS ALREADY CHOSEN HIS NEXT SERRVANT.

Always remember this, YOU who fear God, along with the collective Americans, cried out to our Almighty God to save us from evil. He answered, he brought forth His Servant, ....Donald J Trump, not once, but twice, and He has shown you His works. He has shown His devine powers, and authority, the assassination attempt of our then candidate, and now POTUS 45/47 Trump in Butler clearly showed the whole world of God's devine intervention. God has told you time, and again, "I Got This"! You have no need to guess who will lead us forward as POTUS Trump has, God has been showing you His servants who will carry on the yoke place on POTUS Trump. God is talking to us every day, but many are not paying attention. God has chosen His next servant after Trump.

One does not choose themselves to be a servant of God, God chooses His servants who do His will. Nor does the devil's minions choose God's servants, God will not be mocked, thosen who play God will pay dearly in Purgatory.

"It is not surprising, then, if His servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve". 2 Corinthians 11:15

When you ask God to carry your burden, be sincere when you put it in God's hands, and leave it there. NBK
