Mike Johnson is one of THE best when it comes to our Constitution, IMO. Don't forget his brilliant speech on the House floor during one of President Trump's impeachment hearings! In the overall scale of things, I am VERY happy with this result.

I concur with that part. Maybe his announced priorities are a deflection of some type? We will find out his true purpose in time.🙏

Kayfabe everywhere, everywhere kayfabe... does nobody speak plainly anymore?

Everything is in code, have to look for the hidden meanings "in plain sight," the shifting sands just keep blowing.

The thing is, there is so much wisdom in some of those old lyrics and poems, and I have a feeling that much of it might have been put there sort of as a 'time capsule' -- the authors might not have even known the impact that their words might have decades into the future, their true meaning only to be discerned once the zeitgeist aligned properly.

Sandburg for one is an interesting character -- socialist in his early years, then famous for his biography of Lincoln, and he was a leader in the civil rights movement. Wrote all sorts of things -- poetry, fiction, biographies, folk music, childrens' stories...

Dylan, a songwriter born to Lithuanian/Ukrainian Jewish parents and raised on Minnesota's Iron Range, also prominent in the civil rights movement...

And to think the CIA heavily influenced the pop culture and counterculture of the '60s. I have to believe that a higher Force influenced [their] actions in directions they could not see, and that have turned around and bit them in the @$$ 60 years later.

I truly believe taking Rush Limbaugh's advise and turning off the TV has been the best action I could take to foil the DS Rat Bastard's MSM mockingbird plan. I sleep so much better and am ComfyAF all day long without that constant devilish droning.

Might I add, not only turn off, but turn on the words of the One who wins (has won already), such as,

“Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers!

For they will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb.

Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.

Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psa 37:1-4)

IMO, it is best to actually keep on top of what is being spouted by the MSM - it will be a guide as to who CAN'T be trusted - always, always, always question everything and be VERY careful of the words used, the sentence structure, the punctuation...I worked in the DCI with government contracts and even a misplaced comma can change the entire meaning of the contract legally.

I am okay with that for anybody that wants to take that course of action.

I on the other hand choose to ignore all the lying low vibration noise. That is one of many reasons that I look forward each morning to this Brief. I get the headlines and that is all I need.

We all use God's gifts as we see fit. I remain ComfyAF.

That's all that counts: whatever works for you and yours. I spent sooooo many of my adult years totally blind about anything to do with governance that once I retired 10 years ago, I began learning as fast as I possibly could....what a revelation that was for me!!! And still, every single day, I learn about something else my government has done behind our backs and every single day, I am shocked once again. It does get tiresome at times and I have my little distractions when I need to walk away for a bit.

My Awakening began with the Evil wrought by the DS Rat Bastards via Child Slavery (and worse)... really RIPPED my blinders off. Everyday since then with God's help has been a learning experience of our real world and the beauty that can and will come... The Best Is Yet To Come!

Thanks, Feather. I find that in these 'weird' times as Ashe calls them, humor and cultural references that imply there is some sort of structure to all this craziness can be helpful. After all, there is nothing new under the Sun, or so they say...

My thoughts exactly, Rex. This guy recently spent 2 weeks in a “mental health hospital”…what that means to me is he was very likely put on some psychiatric drugs which eventually made him a danger to himself and others! Modern day psychiatry is an industry of death…started way back in the Columbine shooting.

I see two things in today’s brief that don’t add up, unless…

First, Mike Johnson is saying that he wants to fund Israel. He is also on record as saying he wants to impeach Biden.

Another article says that we have a month before Biden is gone. So it might be that Mike Johnson is making a chess move where he corrals deep state/democrat votes for the impeachment removal of Biden?

Washington, October 25, 2023. (Alex Brandon/AP)

WASHINGTON — The new Republican speaker of the US House of Representatives began his job late Wednesday by introducing a resolution supporting Israel in its conflict with Hamas terrorists.

“The first bill that I’m going to bring to this floor in just a little while will be in support of our dear, dear friend Israel, and we’re overdue in getting that done,” Louisiana congressman Mike Johnson said in his acceptance speech, warning that America’s “greatest ally in the Middle East is under attack.”

The non-binding resolution declares the House “stands with Israel” and “condemns Hamas’ brutal war.” It calls on Hamas to immediately end attacks and release all hostages.

The resolution, which DOES NOT INCLUDE FUNDING for Israel’s military needs, passed 412 to 10, with six Democrat members voting “present.”

I’m with Ashe. I listened to Sen Kennedy (LA) and his glowing report on Johnson’s election, and read everything I could about him in the time I had, but the minute he announced his priorities, he lost me! This obviously is some complicated play that will result in many more exposures of the uniparty, but beyond that...only time will tell.

MKULTRA back in the news as some handler (at the order of his/her bosses up the line) has released the attacker upon innocents to ramp up the fear of further (many) attacks here. False flags do have real victims and we pray for all of their families.🙏. When the shooter is found...go after the shrink handler and his/her bosses!

The drum beats to WWIII continue, but the world’s awakened aren’t responding as desired. That’s a good thing.

Ashe is also right...,it’s about to get really weird! God bless our dedicated truth journalists! You are the news now.🙏🙏

“The first world war came and its cost was laid on the people.

The second world war — the third — what will be the cost.

And will it repay the people for what they pay?...

The little girl saw her first troop parade and asked,

‘What are those?’

‘Soldiers.’

‘What are soldiers?’

‘They are for war. They fight and each tries to kill as many of the other side as he can.’

The girl held still and studied.

‘Do you know ... I know something?’

‘Yes, what is it you know?’

What priorities are you upset about?

Expand full comment

We have already supported Israel for decades with billions upon billions and Ukraine has been corrupt for years, and we’ve supported the regime there with billions, too. Our priorities should be American centered first, especially with an out of control budget…. Close the border. Stop all funding to illegals coming through the country and close the border. Stop all foreign funding. All of this should be stopped until we can get solvent as a nation. That’s what we do with our personal budgets. 🙏

I don't believe in coincidence anymore. The author of that 2nd piece also noted that the colors of many Muslim nations' flags are red, white, green and black.

As for the light/dark dichotomy, Jesus taught us that God represented truth, light and life, whereas the Koran talks about lies and deception (taqiyyah), darkness, and killing infidels. You can draw your own conclusions about that.

"1 Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”

5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

-- John 14:1-6 (NKJV)

Nor do I believe in coincidence anymore, since a while !

I concur to your take and commend you for the chosen scriptures which are among the best ones regarding this theme !

I keep this one as a reminder: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

[They] do not get to choose the timing of the End Times. This is under God's control, not theirs. If they are acting according to God's timing, as in they are under His control and doing His bidding, then perhaps they will be allowed to do what you describe. Otherwise it will happen in God's time, not ours... or [theirs].

There are shootings, and then there are "shootings".

I happen to live in a small town in WNY where the legacy of the mafia is now the drug gangs (Bloods, Crops, etc.).

We've had our fair share of shootings over the past three decades. They range from individual stupidity/revenge reasons to targeted turf wars. As you can imagine, people can and do get hurt, some even killed. (Can I still use that word?)

I first learned of false flags from the infamous Q drops. Since Sandy Hook, my first response to a mass shooting under strange circumstances (not obviously gang related), is to presume a false flag. I then wait to see how things develop. Invariably, these false flags can result in one of two outcomes : 1.) Mass casualty event with authentic loss of life (e.g. Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, Las Vegas), or 2.) complete hoax that in fact never happened, often employing crisis actors (I leave that for you to decide).

Rarely, does one get a "hybrid" mass casualty event hoax, such as Lahaina. People were killed, but attributing it to downed power lines had been shown to be completely wrong, thereby a hoax.

As for this latest shooting in Maine, my first instinct is to presume a false flag. To what purpose? That old chestnut, gun control (look back to as recently as last year when this was warned against).

Now I wait. As more details are brought forward it will become clearer what exactly is going on.

Above all, do not get emotionally worked up. If you're upset (an understandable response), take some time to work through that. Then turn n your brain back on, and look carefully. Look for patterns. Notice any inconsistencies/anomalies? Hint: the Nashville "shooting" is an excellent place to exercise this.

The truth will come out rather quickly as our fellow anons/truthers investigate this event. However, if weird "reasons" are given as conclusive in a relatively short time span (too short for a thorough investigation), and then it is dropped completely (i.e. Las Vegas and Lahaina), consider carefully the possibilities.
