        Here it is, copied and pasted…. This is something I found trying to do some research to find the status of the anti-missionary legislation in Israel, which according the article, is now DOA.
        —

        ““As Christians who work to bridge between Jews and Muslims, we find that once our neighbors understand that we support them unconditionally, we are free to be ourselves, which includes expressing our faith openly,” said Jonathan Miles, founder of Shevet Achim, a Christian organization that brings children from neighboring Arab countries to Israel for medical treatment.”

        Without condition would mean allowing Jews to remain Jews. That excludes proselytizing. That is the one thing many Xtian “Zionists” do not understand, which is why there are so few Xtians who can genuinely call themselves Zionists. If their scripture mandates that they evangelize, then by definition, they cannot be Zionists. Xtians fail to understand this because they believe that Zionism only applies to Israel’s right to exist as a country with its own geographic borders.

        Despite PM’s assurances, Christian Zionists bedeviled by anti-missionary bill

        https://www.timesofisrael.com/despite-pms-assurances-christian-zionists-bedeviled-by-anti-missionary-bill/

        Granted this article is nearly a month old, but I have been thinking about it a lot over the weekend. The reason being is that it touches on a larger
        issue, not just the riff between Xtians and Jews. But is actually at the heart of the turmoil much of the world is facing right now, and that is the issue of individual sovereignty versus globalist technocrats who think they know better how we should all live our lives.

        As the old saying goes, “my rights end where your rights begin, and your rights end where my rights begin.”

        The issue is really about boundaries. Somewhere as a society, the importance of boundaries was lost, hence why we are in the mess we are all in. It’s one thing to have a vigorous discussion. It’s another thing altogether to impose your will on another. If someone tries to impose their will on you no matter how many times you tell them no, it is only going to breed resentment.

          1. Weary Traveler

            That’s exactly why I ended up hating over 90% of my neighbors. They showed themselves to be just like Nazis. Even before COVID with all their Trump Derangement Syndrome.

        2. Proud Conservative Mom

          I heard about this bill.
          It is a crying shame that it will never be passed.

          Notice how the Christians spoke about it as if the potential law would have hindered and censored them in practicing their religion.
          EXCUSE ME?!
          When did Jews ever try to censor or remove the Christian Bible from Christians?!
          How very ironic when over the years, Christians censored even Jewish Prayers! 🤬🤬🤬

          They went berserk because almost all Christian Zionists are missionaries.
          Rabbi Tovia Singer talks about it frequently.

          He made Aliyah because the missionary problem is Stage Four.

          The missionaries want to be free to continue prosthelytizing zealously.
          THAT, is the issue.

          Missionaries purposefully rip down any boundaries.
          They are EVIL.

          I am so sick of their lying self-righteous BS.
          They are after the Jews.
          FINIS.
          They are such lying SCUM.
          🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

          (FYI, missionaries went nuts on Twitter about this a month ago.)

          “Without condition would mean allowing Jews to remain Jews. That excludes proselytizing.”
          THANK YOU, and EXACTLY.

          For some reason, the phrase”for the greater good ” hit me.
          Now I see the connection.
          (I’m a little slow right now due to my antihistamine. 🤦)
          They insist that the conversion of Jews is for our “greater good.”
          They are so magnanimously trying to save us from ourselves.

          I seriously want to burn these people at the stake.

          🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

          (Apologies for venting and pardon the language.)

          1. Weary Traveler

            Feel free to vent. I hate them too. It’s harder and harder for me to not hate all Xtians equally. I know I certainly have no love for their religion, and them trying to impose their will on my generation by trying to take away our music from us. And not all they wanted to ban had curse words in it either. Most of it didn’t.

            And if that wasn’t bad enough, I would have to encounter those self-righteous end timer types.

            They remind me of Democrats in too many ways.

          3. Weary Traveler

            They are truly sick in the head. Sometimes I find it difficult to talk about them without sounding like the NYC Transit System myself.

            Marty and I were watching an old Sam Kinison comedy show last night, and we both laughed at the end when it showed him taking off in his Corvette that had a license plate that read “EX REV”. The whole first part of his routine was making fun of Jesus and “The Last Supper.”

            He said they had to rewrite the gospels because in reality, Jesus actually told his disciples where they can all go. LOL

      Medical treatment has long been a socialists postition that has always meant state control. Those controlling things saw the time to snap the trap.

      1. Weary Traveler

        That would go back to even more primitive societies. “Medicine men” or “witch doctors” had even more power than the chiefs/kings.

    1. Proud Conservative Mom

      Safety signals matter, especially when dealing with medications.

      Medicine has become a business for quite some time already.
      However, there was still the overall intent of “do no harm” generally speaking.

      Regarding the Covid Franken-jabs, the intent was to harm and murder.
      The safety signals weren’t being ignored.
      They were being covered up!

      Indeed, doctors lost their licenses.
      Dr. Zev Zelenko ZTL, was put through Hell on Earth by these murdering scum and their enablers.
      May Hashem bless every medical professional who spoke out and took a stand against evil.

      May Dr. Zelenko’s memory be blessed…

    1. Proud Conservative Mom

      Sean Davis is correct.
      Twitter cannot be saved.

      A Trans Day of Vengeance, apparently isn’t violent and doesn’t break Twitter rules.
      To report on it does.
      That’s beyond crazy.

      I don’t like Twitter (sans when Bill had the time to Tweet Vinny items).

      Leftists and Jew haters are still rampant.

      No judgments whatsoever on anyone who did, but I refused to entertain the notion of paying $8.00 a month for a blue checkmark.
      I didn’t consider it for a nanosecond.

      I am going to sign off for tonight.
      I have two appointments and a wedding.

      I’m on standby that a very dear and old family friend is very close to the end of his life.
      74, doesn’t sound as old as it used to.
      He’s like an uncle to me.
      💔💔💔😪😪😪

      Good night and sweet dreams to you and everyone else.
      (I’m hoping to get to the rest of your articles. They are always very interesting to read.)

      1. Weary Traveler

        Yeah, I remember when 74 seemed ancient. And 74 year olds looked ancient. Not anymore. 70 is the new 50, and 50 is the new 30.

    1. Proud Conservative Mom

      I opine that certain words will never have the same meaning for me again.
      The word “woke”, is a prime example.
      It’s amazing how such an innocuous word became the “poster child” for evil, if you will.

      I am old enough to remember when the word gay was just as innocently synonymous with the word joy or happy.
      (In fact, it was in the childhood game/song “One Finger, One Thumb.”
      Of course, that song hasn’t been sung by children in my circles for a very long time already.)

      Unfortunately, evil has successfully destroyed so much of what was originally innocent and supposed to have remained so.

      I don’t see the clock being turned back regarding this specifically.
      I hope that I am wrong.

      What are your thoughts?

      1. Weary Traveler

        It’s like I said about the ingrained psychosis many people seem to suffer from. Humans spent most of history riding these extreme waves of ups and downs.

        And if you use that wave theory, what then happens when goes too far down, is that it shoots back up until it crests.

        I know I do my best to try to point out how history keeps on repeating itself, over and over, and how we don’t seem to move past them.

        Marty and I just got done watching this documentary on one of the streaming services he subscribes to called “The Other F Word”, which was about many of the influential musicians of the early punk rock world that are still active, and now have families of their own. “The Other F Word” meaning “family.”

        It was very interesting because they talk about their childhoods as misfits from dysfunctional households, and how their outlooks changed once they became fathers. It mostly focused on the Punk scene of Southern California with bands like Black Flag, The Dead Kennedy’s, and Pennywise. It reminded me of that bit from Rabbi Wallerstien when he talked about his own negative experiences in childhood with teachers, and how he decided for himself that he wasn’t going to continue the cycle, and opened up those high schools to prevent as many other children as he could from having that same experience.

        I guess where I am going with all of this is that we have to be hitting a saturation point right now. I don’t know who in society the “trans” people are really winning any points with, outside of a few elitists with malicious intent.

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          Oh my goodness…
          I just read this link.
          That word had a totally different definition in the 1930’s.
          WOW!
          That was very interesting.

          If anyone had any doubts as to Wikipedia being a Leftist site, they should read the link and see how it portrays the Right in that article, alone.

          That was very informative.
          Very much appreciated, as always.

        1. Weary Traveler

          I was thinking the same thing, believe it or not. Probably all token hires over there.

          4. Weary Traveler

            With so many of the other tech companies laying off left and right, many ex Twitter employees are still unemployed.

    Israeli security forces have apprehended the 15-year-old terrorist who perpetrated the Tuesday morning shooting attack in the Shimon Hatzadik neighborhood in Jerusalem during an overnight raid in Nablus.

    The terrorist tried to shoot two Chasidic Jews in their car. Miraculously, his gun jammed.

      1. Sapper 9

        I find it strange when people that do not contribute to the system get a yearly check and it is called a tax “refund”.

          1. Sapper 9

            Welfare, the reward for being a lay-about.

            Sorry for the excessive anger, but, I had to send out a large check this year. Errrrrr

          4. Weary Traveler

            No need to apologize. Any decent person would be angry. The only people I hate more than the layabouts, are the evil politicians that enable them.

          6. Weary Traveler

            I am so thankful I do not have allergies. Or, at least there is nothing in my area that I am allergic to.

            Marty did mention to me once that he doesn’t normally suffer Spring allergies, although the exception to that was when he lived in Atlanta while going to Emory. There was obviously some type of pollen there that he didn’t take well to that isn’t in NY, or here in CA.

            My contention with Sprig is that it means summer is fast approaching, and it’s not like I have the means to just run off to Alaska for a while.

          7. Proud Conservative Mom

            You are exceedingly blessed.
            Trust me.
            (I’m not complaining. It’s just a nuisance that I have no time for. I went for a strep test anyway, because I am prone to strep at times.)

            Despite being allergic to pollen, etc., I LOVE Spring.
            Everything is coming to life again.

            My Rose Fever typically lasts for two weeks.
            It can be shorter.

          8. Weary Traveler

            Yes, everything starts coming to life. And sadly, especially when you are in an area like mine, it also means the idiots start crawling out o their holes. At least in winter, more of them tend to just stay in and get wasted. If only winter were longer, maybe more of them might die of an overdose. And that would certainly MAGA.

          9. Proud Conservative Mom

            Point taken.
            GEVALT. May Hashem give you, Marty, Carolyn, and every good person who is domiciled where you are, the ability to leave.
            You literally are surrounded by lunatics.
            I love your closing statement.
            It would certainly help MAGA.
            💯💯💯😂😂😂

          10. Weary Traveler

            Marty would go to Florida, as that is his happy place. At this point, I don’t thing that I have to explain why I wouldn’t even visit Florida. Carolyn, OTOH, wouldn’t mind being my neighbor in either Santa Cruz or Monterey. Just one of us has to buy a winning Lotto ticket is all. LOL

          12. Weary Traveler

            Me too. Then I can move my loved ones a little closer to me. The ones that would actually want to live in the Monterey Bay Area that is.

            I sure wouldn’t force anyone, since everyone has their own idea of what/where paradise is.

          14. Weary Traveler

            I just want the people around me to be happy. Even if it means they live far away from me because that is where their happy place is. I don’t have to understand it, or even agree with it to respect it.

            Marty’s happy place is Southern Florida. But if that is really where he wants to be, then I am rooting for him. Just as long as he doesn’t try to drag me there with him.

          15. Proud Conservative Mom

            You’re a very kind person.
            You care about the welfare of those who you love.
            That’s very commendable.

            I just finished listening to one of The Brownstone articles and will scroll down to comment on it.

            The audios are extremely helpful as I am preparing supper while listening to it.
            I’m almost done.
            I’m finishing the salad.

          16. Weary Traveler

            I am so glad you like those. It’s become one of my few main go-to sources of late.

          18. Weary Traveler

            That’s the whole point. Sadly, conversation is so lacking these days. Just the same talking points. Rush Limbaugh would call it “the drive-by media” for a reason.

          20. Proud Conservative Mom

            BINGO and my condolences.

            Taxes are extremely crushing.
            The middle class doesn’t exist anymore, and hasn’t for a very long time already.

            When one has to be opulent in order to afford eggs, gasoline, milk, etc., one has to be very wealthy not to be crushed by taxes.

            That’s my rant.

          21. Weary Traveler

            BTW; check your notifications… I re-posted that article from the Times of Israel regarding the proposed anti-missionary legislation.

          22. Proud Conservative Mom

            I am in the middle of doing so.
            TYMK.
            My sister Devora called me in the middle.

            I really appreciate it.

            It was very refreshing today to meet a Christian who loves Israel and the Jewish People.
            She understands that Jews need to remain Jews.
            We conversed for a while outside the medical building.

            I had been checking my messages on my phone, while holding a paper with a bunch of doctor’s appointments on it.
            She asked if I was putting them into my phone.
            I told her that I do it the old fashioned method.
            I write everything down on my calendar.
            I then take a picture of it, in case I ever inadvertently forget it.

            She loved the fact that I am a Torah Jew and old school.
            😃😃😃

          23. Weary Traveler

            “It was very refreshing today to meet a Christian who loves Israel and the Jewish People.
            She understands that Jews need to remain Jews.”

            That is so rare. Too rare.

            Even the ones who say they love the Jewish people don’t understand that Jews need to remain Jews.

          24. Proud Conservative Mom

            It is almost unheard of.
            Indeed, it is too rare.

            Rachel is 85 years old and I told her that Hashem should bless her with many more happy and healthy years.
            (Unfortunately, she lost her wonderful husband five years ago. They were married for 60 years.)

            I expressed my tremendous gratitude and told her how rare she is.
            I am a big believer in letting good people know that they are very much appreciated.

            When she first stopped me, I was very wary.
            She had a huge cross around her neck.
            That symbol never made me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
            Au contraire.

          25. Weary Traveler

            Crosses usually do not bother me because, part of the counter culture scenes like punk rock, death/gothic rock, crosses are sometimes worn as a fashion statement, and ironically. Not necessarily because the person is a believer.

            There’s actually a few gothic shirts I have that are made by “Killstar”, and one of their signatures is silver buttons with upside-down crosses on them. That really gets funny looks from Christians who notice them, as they believe that is the symbol of the “antichrist.” LOL

          26. Proud Conservative Mom

            I always associate crosses with The Church.
            Just passing a Church makes my stomach churn.
            It has so much Jewish blood on its hands.
            Oceans of it. 💔💔💔😪😪😪

            Your shirt sounds hilarious.
            LOL!

            I pass two churches on my walk.
            The Episcopal Church is slightly less triggering for me because they don’t evangelize.

            When I was late in doing my early morning walk a few days ago, I passed by the smaller Church.
            There was a pastor standing outside.
            He looked at me as if he was going to start talking to me.
            I glared at him.
            He said nothing.

          27. Weary Traveler

            I have four shirts from KIllstar, and two of them have those buttons. They would really freak out if they ever saw the labels which have witches moons and pentagrams. LOL

            I’m sure my choice of wardrobe is why even the JWs didn’t want to bother with me when they were canvasing the neighborhood a few weeks ago.

          28. Weary Traveler

            The Episcopal church is triggering in other ways, simply because they embraced the woke agenda.

            Honestly, the word “church” is a big sick joke as far as I am concerned.

            Yes, it does have a lot of blood on its hands, not to mention all the hypocrisy and ignorance currently practiced by them today. They certainly have done a good job of creating a lot of Atheists.

          29. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            As a Gentile I always found wearing an implement of torture rather morbid.

          31. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Thanks for making me not feel so alone in that feeling. Hope for humanity a Jew and a Gentile agree. 🙂

          32. Proud Conservative Mom

            I’m Jewish and agree with never understanding why Christians would want to wear an instrument of torture as jewelry.
            It blows my mind.
            I appreciate every Christian who is pro-Israel and Jews.
            That means those who don’t seek to convert Jews.

            WT isn’t Jewish.
            He’s a deist and a wonderful one. 😊😊😊

            I really appreciate those like yourself.
            You’re very few and far between.

          33. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            If God is not in your heart and mind wearing a symbol does nothing. As having indigenous roots love of the land of my origin is important to me and I understand the Jews need to be in theirs. It’s home and feeds the soul. I could avoid cold winters and move to Florida, but would feel out of place.

          34. Weary Traveler

            As someone experiencing homesickness on a very deep level, I know that out of place feeling all too well.

            Some people don’t understand why I want to return to Santa Cruz, or at least Monterey so badly. AS much as I appreciate my good friend, Marty, he is one of those people who doesn’t understand where I come from there. But only because he himself doesn’t have that attachment to any place.

            “Why not go somewhere cheaper?” Because, it isn’t home, and you get what you pay for. “Why not go somewhere more conservative?” Because it is not my home, and people in red states don’t want blue state expats moving to their states, even if they are fellow MAGA voters, because of the increased crowding, traffic, and cost of living mass migration brings.

          35. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Yet California is becoming more hostile to the religious. There are places I have had Deja Vous in upstate NY that was also Iroquois land and where my great grandfather was from. Worse winters and not much of a difference in taxes. I contemplate what else do we inherit aside from physical features and traits.

          36. Weary Traveler

            Here’s the thing though. Even if all conservatives were able to, and all agreed to move to red states, it wouldn’t stop with the left just owning the blue states. Soros has his tentacles in red states also. They want it where no matter where you go, you can’t get away.

            If a person wants to go somewhere else, regardless of reasons, they should be free to do so and pursue their own happiness. But I refuse to be displaced anymore than I already have been. I’ve lived other places before, but like you said, could never really adjust to it. I simply just didn’t belong there.

            I don’t regret the experiences, because at least this way, I now know for sure. There is no more “what if” factor.

          37. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Agree, and I live in a blue state. Fortunately, my town is red and I am not accosted by the woke. I suspect the more insane it gets it will burn itself out. Between abortions and trans sterilizing kids they will die off eventually or have an epiphany.

          38. Weary Traveler

            I hear that. I know some fundamentalist Xtians who feel the same way. There are certain sects that reject the iconography, mostly from the Catholic Church. You have people like the Pentecostals, for example, that are trying to take Xtianity back to the days of Acts, before Constantine would co-opt Xtianity, and establish the church.

            Which is interesting because most of those fundamentalist movements really didn’t start popping up until the 19th century, and is more of an American Phenomenon.

          39. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Born Agains are the worst and they get nasty if you don’t agree with them. Co opt is the right word. Jesus did not hold communion he celebrated Passover once a year. Nor did he start a new religion, it was a sect of Judaism. My family has a complex religious history. Grandmother from a French Protestant family married a Catholic, her family disowned her. My mother was Catholic and my father Protestant, neither cleric would marry them. Then my mother became a Jehovah witness. At least they read all the Bible, don’t have the trinity or child baptism and celebrate the Passover. However. they don’t believe in having friends of other faiths. So I gave up on organized religion and raised my children on Bible principles.

            The American freedoms and no state church play a part in that phenomenon. Now the woke are trying to end that evolution in religion.

            Now if there is a group I collectively despise, it is the “born agains.” I notice most of them tend to be former drug addicts. Which means that they are impulsive, erratic, and highly volatile. Add self-righteousness to the mix, and it exacerbates their preexisting narcissism.

            When they tell me they want to live like Jesus, is usually when I suggest they climb up on to a cross and nail themselves to it. I would gladly do it for them, since they so richly deserve it, but unfortunately, it would cost me my freedom.

          41. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Actually, they do the opposite of Jesus and why I find them so annoying. They ignore God is the real judge not them and they too will be subject to his final judgement. I also find their reading of the Bible is selective and usually out of context.

          42. Weary Traveler

            It’s always out of context with them. Many of them also tend to be the biggest antisemites. If I only had a nickel for each time one of them called me a “Pharisee” I would rich enough to make Elon Musk look like a welfare case right now.

            They are just like the Branch Covidians; it’s really all about them, and being able to tell others what to do.

          43. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            That treatment is exactly what Christians were taught not to do before Constantine. In online discussions I have pointed to the scriptures that tell them that. They ignore it. So yes it is all about them, they think they know it all, contrary to what the Greek scriptures say.
            This one fits them.
            Matthew 6:5 And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward.

          44. Weary Traveler

            And I know exactly what they would say to that. They would, and do say that is talking about the “pharisees”, and if they really say what they mean, they just say “the Jews.”

            And then you give them a good “what for”, they say they are being persecuted like Jesus was as they call you the “antichrist.” I have been on the receiving end of those accusations from born agains more than enough times.

            And if someone like you calls them to task for their behavior, they will call you a “lukewarm Xtian.” Obviously I encountered more than my fair share of this kind of thing. Born agains, like tards of any stripe, seem to come off the same assembly line in the Tard Factory, as they all seem to be cookie cutter models of each other.

            Like I said before, if it wouldn’t cost me my freedom, I would more than love to help them fulfill their desire to “live like Jesus did”, and nail THEM to a cross, just to shut them the Hell up, since just like rapists, they refuse to take no for an answer.

            “Born again” is just the PC way of saying “infuriatingly stupid.”

          45. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Except it doesn’t say Pharisees that were one of 30 sects of Judaism at that time, estimated to be about 6,000. Best to avoid conversations with them or keep it brief. They have told me I will go to hell if I don’t accept Jesus is God and receive the holy spirit another part of God, so I can understand the Bible. That means God did the pointless in having his words recorded for humanity to read. Why get angry at the stupid self-righteous? Only God’s opinion counts.

          46. Weary Traveler

            Part of the reason I get so irritated with them is because words do have consequences. And words like theirs have lead to people’s blood being shed. From the Crusades, to The Spanish Inquisition, to the witch trials, and to the holocaust.

          47. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            I refuse to live in the past. That is a tactic of the woke. Now many Christians find Born Agains a pain and more Christian churches support Israel than don’t. The Neo-Nazi groups are now the problem. Do not forget the Nazi had other ethnic targets. Roma in Ukraine have been severely abused under a socallled Jewish president.

          48. Weary Traveler

            I have definitely been noticing an uptick in Neo-Nazi garbage out there. I’m certain most of it is a bunch of feds LARPing because they don’t understand conservative culture, and ultimately are trying to make MAGA look bad.

            But then there are enough weak minded incels out there living in their mother’s basements whose little pea brains stop all thinking any any further research the moment they hear the word “Jew”, because somehow, it is the fault of the Jews that they are beta males that women find about as attractive as a steaming puddle of dog vomit on the sidewalk on a hot summer day.

            The way I figure it; if these scumbags really want another holocaust, then it should be carried out against them.

            Who knows? Maybe we’ll all get lucky, and there will be a draft. Then those LARPing cretins will all get sent to Ukraine to either get shot by Putin’s Army, or in the back by their fellow Neo-Nazis in the Azov Battalion when they realize that real life isn’t a video game, and they try to run like the little punk asses they are.

            It always makes me laugh how the Nazis get beat up by Antifa, who easily get their butts kicked by real MAGA patriots. Which only goes to show that Nazis are even bigger wusses than a bunch of soy boys. LOL

          50. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Family is doing well and always wonderful to chat with you also. I do have Catholic family and attend certain ceremonies. At a conformation when the priest said the wine and bread actually turned into Jesus body and blood I had all I could do to contain myself from running out screaming. If my youngest was not squeezing my hand I might have. I blame the Romans for corrupting a Jews teaching. Makes me wonder if they ever read the Hebrew Scriptures.

          51. Weary Traveler

            For the most part they just revamped the Roman Greco pagan system with a Xtian flair. Constantine wasn’t even really an Xtian, but his wife was.

          52. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            That is my observation as well, they hijacked a Jews teaching and added pagan bells and whistles to create a state religion for a political goal. Not till his death bed did he convert, cover all bases when faced with his end.

          53. Weary Traveler

            That’s basically what it was. Like the pagan systems before it, it was a way of keeping the plebs in line to protect the pecking order. A tradition that would carry on through the Feudal societies that followed.

          54. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            And that is why I do not belong to any of them. A time when most of the population could not read. God gave us a book to guide us, that is all I need.

          55. Weary Traveler

            Personally, I reject Xtianity altogether. If I had to choose a religion, I would go with Judaism myself because it makes the most sense.

            The born again Xtians in particular, are the perfect illustration as to why Judaism doesn’t evangelize, and why they don’t encourage people to convert to their religion. They tend to be more hesitant to bring in converts.

            Jews have enough problems being blamed for everything wrong in the world, without a fresh new converts making them look bad by beating everyone they encounter over the head with the Tanach.

            My biggest critique for the Xtians would be, instead of focusing their outreach efforts on finding converts, to instead focus it more on their own. I have had plenty of Xtians tell me they get little to no support when approaching their pastors about a problem. They are usually dismissed, and just told to go pray about it, or worse, to go see a shrink and inquire about getting some happy pills. And the other congregates aren’t much better.

            I used to work with a bunch of them, and often times, it was like being surrounded by a bunch of Stepford wives.

            Xtians are still people, and they still have problems like anyone else. They should be able to get real human connection and support from their own. Sad so many of them don’t.

          56. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            There is a difference between what Christian religions teach and what is in the Bible. I have read it all, the Hebrew and the Greek. Too me you can’t understand what Jesus taught if you have not read the scriptures he did. The Born Again don’t see it that way and ignore Jesus was a Jew and think he started a new religion when he did not.

            I am doing fine without a religion and can still worship the God made known to the Jews. As a Gentile I am not bound to their laws, but keep a good part of them. I would never think of eating dishes made with blood. I reject the trinity was taught by Jesus as most Christian religions do. I do not believe in a burning hell either.

            We live in a world where humans misuse the free will they were created with. To the point they deny there is a creator God. I find that more troubling than pushy wacky Christians that have a tendency to chase people away from God.

          57. Weary Traveler

            I have never seen any case anywhere in Tanach that makes the case for Xtianity. The nicest thing I could ever say about “Jesus” is that he just had some ideas of his own. Paul on the other hand, I can’t even think of anything that nice for. But that’s just me.

            What someone truly believes is ultimately between them and God. I have zero desire to infringe upon that right. It’s only a problem when the other person doesn’t extend that same courtesy to me, and tries to impose their beliefs on me. Like the old cliche of how “my rights end where your rights begin” and vice versa.

            It’s ultimately a question of boundaries.

          58. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            As there is today there were sects of Judaism in the past. I can think of one thing Paul said that is positive, God has not rejected the Jews. Born again ignore that one.

            Totally agree humans need to develop a personal relationship with God and not be self-righteous groupies demanding others accept their understanding as absolute unchanging fact. I believe God has more to say when it is needed.

          59. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            I have my own Christianity as a Gentile that rejects the trinity. Lost track of how many times I have been told I am going to hell over that. Jesus was a practicing Jew and did not teach it. The problem with many Christians is they are hooked on traditions that came hundreds of years latter over reading all the Bible. I see no purpose to trying to convert Jews that believe in the same God. Better to preach to those that don’t share the same God.

          60. Weary Traveler

            It’s amazing Xtians can still somehow agree with each other on the whole “Jesus is lord” thing. Just like the Muzzies, they even condemn their own to Hell for not worshiping as they see fit.

            The problem with being the world’s largest religion with 2.2 Billion followers is that the more people involved, the more a-holes there will be within the ranks. And bad actors are all too good at drawing most of the attention to themselves. Not hating all Xtians collectively as a whole is not an easy task for me as I try very hard to be fair.

          61. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            They have been trained to only pay attention to the Christian scriptures and told what they mean for centuries. Does not matter how many quotes of Jesus saying he can only do his father’s will, he is also God with them. The Bible also says a husband and wife become one. Of course, that does not mean literally, but in purpose. That is a Bible principle they do not apply to Jesus. A tradition that came from the decision of former pagans around 300 years after Jesus death. I have found as with any book it must be read in context from beginning to end to properly understand God’s meaning. Religions make changes, God is consistent in what he has had recorded. As an American Indian said to missionaries, If Christians all read the same book why do you argue over what it says?

            Hate is a very self-destruction emotion to be avoided. Distrust is advisable. There are many terrible things men have done to others. The past cannot be changed and the oppressor and victims have gone to our maker for perfect judgement. As a descendant of American Indian we that also suffered from socalled Christian superiority in faith I understand. Trust in God to sort all humanity out.

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            AGREED.

            This is because they aren’t bound by morals.
            That is THE key difference when contrasting it to when Jews had their own sovereignty in the days of old. The Batei Din (Jewish courts) ruled by TORAH.

            Judges have to meet extremely strict standards.

            Moreover, for one to qualify to be a member of the illustrious Sanhedrin, they had to be very great.

            Mordechai from the Purim story was a member of the Sanhedrin.
            That’s why he understood the very uncommon Tarsi language.
            Members of Sanhedrin had to understand all 70 languages.

            This is because when a witness testifies in another language, something is almost always lost in a translation.
            That could not be allowed to happen.
            That’s how just Torah is.

            There are also very strict laws about how one must conduct themselves as a judge.

            The Sanhedrin was akin to The Supreme Court.
            It had 120 members.

    ‘Nonbinary’ Biden Administration Official Ordered to Undergo Mental Health Evaluation After Avoiding Jail Time

    Oh, the irony… So they have to admit that a tranny is mentally ill. Of course, the diagnosis isn’t about that, or even that he stole the luggage. Although that fits the DemonCrap narrative that a criminal just needs counseling.

    “PIKAKIM” heading into Modiin Ilit.

    According to ChatGPT:The origin of the Hebrew slang word “פיקק” (pikak) is not entirely clear, but it is likely derived from the Yiddish word “פּיקפּאָק” (pikpok) which also means “traffic jam” or “congestion.

    The word “pikpok” is likely derived from the German word “Pieke-Pocken,” which means “pick-packing” and refers to the act of packing goods tightly together. Over time, the Yiddish word “pikpok” evolved to mean “crowded” or “congested,” and it may have been borrowed into Hebrew as “pikak.” https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bd841eab46afa3eaa28aebc341a6aef6ac47b82abf6e6adddb8d1bb05a142c4a.jpg

    Fact check: TRUE
    That is the purpose of the Mitzvos (Commandments); to connect us to Hashem.
    (Apologies for not being able to recollect the source for this. It recently came up in my studies over the past month or two.)

    Of course, Hashem gave us Mitzvos that would enable us to become the most perfect people possible.
    He knows human nature.
    “I created the Yetzer Horah. I created Torah, the antidote.”
    – Gemara Kedushin 30b

    When one does a Mitzvah, they become closer and more connected to Hashem.
    (Having the right intentions while doing them, bolsters the connection tremendously.)

    The soul naturally yearns to be close to Hashem.
    Ergo, there is no greater happiness than being connected to Hashem.
    That’s per Judaism.

    “Newly released emails reveal that Acting Commissioner Janet Woodcock was concerned because “states cannot require mandatory vaccination” without FDA final approval, according to the chief of FDA’s vaccine-review office, Marion Gruber.”

    Not that being FDA approved should make any difference. 1.) How many things that are “FDA approved”, are not good for you, like all the cancer causing GMOs in foods? Their approval doesn’t mean a damn thing.

    2.) A vaccine is supposed to protect an individual, not those around them. Their very definition of a vaccine is enough to question the efficacy of all vaccine, not just the COVID Franken-Jab. Just look at how many children got Asperger’s or even Autism from conventional vaccines.

    3.) And what about basic human rights? If under any circumstance, the government can force you to take an injection against your will for any reason, it will only be a matter of time before their true Nazi colors show, and they decide to target certain segments of the population….

    🚨Just In – Biden campaign prompted spies to write false letter about Hunter’s laptop

    Joe Biden’s presidential campaign prompted former acting CIA director Mike Morell to “help Biden” by organizing 50 colleagues to sign a letter in October 2020 falsely claiming that damning emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop published by The Post were Russian disinformation.

    In private sworn testimony, Morell told the House Judiciary Committee that Antony Blinken, now Secretary of State, was the senior campaign official who reached out to him “on or before” Oct. 17, 2020, three days after The Post published an email from the laptop suggesting Hunter had introduced his Ukrainian business partner to his father, then vice-president Biden.

    Morell, identified as a potential CIA director under Biden, said he organized the letter to “help Vice President Biden … because I wanted him to win the election.” NYP

    Open Letter to an Emotionally Abused World

    https://brownstone.org/articles/open-letter-to-an-emotionally-abused-world/

    iIf you answered Yes/True to one or more of these questions, you may be a victim of institutional emotional abuse.

    I answered “no” to every single question on that survey, more like “HELL TO THE NO, because I am not a disgusting subhuman idiot”, and I am definitely a victim of collective institutional emotional abuse. Mainly because of the a-holes who answered “yes” to any of those questions.

    In fact, I would go so far as to add at the end of that questionnaire; “If you answered “yes” to any one of the above questions, please place your chin on the muzzle of a double barrel shotgun, and pull down on the trigger.”

    ”Almost overnight, after the WHO declared Covid-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020, phrases such as these began to pop up everywhere: “Stay home. Stay safe.” “We’re all in this together.” “Be considerate; wear a mask.” “Stop the spread.” “Show you care; Social distance.” Eventually embodied in the ubiquitous phrase, “Follow the Science,” the propaganda machine was up and running in record time.

    I remember all that messaging which was all just gaslighting. The worst was “we are all in this together”, because that was the biggest of all the lies told.

    ”“There is a pandemic,” we were asked to shut society down. “Two weeks to slow the spread.”

    I don’t remember being asked. We weren’t consulted with at all. They just did it to us.

    ”There was mask shaming. We were told it was selfish to gather with family and friends; that it was selfish to want to go to work and attend school.”

    We were told all those things by selfish elitists a-holes who never lost an income because they got to work from home, and were overpaid to do practically nothing to begin with. Yet, like in all cases when it comes to moralists, those lecturing us about the “virtues” of collective sacrifice sure as hell weren’t making any of the sacrifices themselves that they demand we make.

    In a real deadly pandemic does anyone really believe that anyone would be ordering from GrubHub and Uber Eats? Even with “contactless delivery,” someone is still handling the food. Even they knew it was all BS. It was all about control with them, because that is how all leftists and elitists roll because they are subhuman scum.

    —

    This would be even much lengthier if I were to have responded to every bit that jumped out at me. But it is more than obvious, just my my initial response to the questionnaire in the article, that the title of the article is correct. Of course, I have been saying this since the beginning. The problem though is, it is much easier to leave an abusive spouse/partner, than it is an abusive government.

      If people haven’t figured it out yet science is nothing but fear based. Every thing science does they use fear. Medical is fear based, climate change is fear based. Fear is the tool of tyrants. Fan the flames of fear and there is war. Science makes its money building the war machine. The war machine gives medical science experience. And the circle continues.

      1. Sapper 9

        I wouldn’t say that science is fear based, however, fear mongering has been PACKAGED AS SCIENCE .

        Altered and manipulated data isn’t science, it is a corrupt means of going power, influence and wealth .

        The institutions of science have become so corrupted by feeding at the government bowl, they are doing their bidding.

They get offered some cushy high paying do-nothing job in a think tank, or as a “political analyst” on some corporate news network where they make a seven figure salary while they collect a fat government pension. Same thing happens when they get voted out.

        Now compare that to what usually happens to a regular person should they lose their job, even from a layoff = without cause. We regular folks usually don’t fare so well.

        If these politicians had an ounce of morality, they wouldn’t just resign, they would give us all the satisfaction of just shooting themselves on live television.

            Exactly. It’s how the game has been played for years. I noticed this pattern for a long time. It became the most apparent to me 20 years ago after we recalled Gray Davis as our governor here in CA, and they did a follow up with him a year after being ousted from office.

            After being removed from office, he was immediately given a partnership at some ritzy law firm in LA where he only worked part time and made far more than he did as governor. Form there, I started to notice a clear pattern.

    Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on Lockdowns: Excerpt from the Announcement Speech

    https://brownstone.org/articles/robert-f-kennedy-jr-on-lockdowns/

    Although I fully agree with RFK Jr’s harsh critique of the lockdown, I cannot support his rewriting of history. Case in point from early on in his speech, and when I stopped reading.

    In fairness let me just make this point. Trump will tell people, well the lockdown wasn’t my idea. It was my bureaucrats. They rolled me on it. I was saying we shouldn’t do it. But that’s not a good enough excuse. He was the president of the United States. As Harry Truman said, the buck stops here.

    Fact Check; FALSE!!

    For those who blame Trump for the lockdowns, my question for them would be this; then how do you explain the 8 states that had no lockdowns like South Dakota, or Oklahoma?

    If the president had declared a national lockdown, you would not have those outliers. Not without a legal battle. Just ask Las Vegas mayor, Carolyn Goodman, who had to sue to reopen her city against the lockdown mandates imposed by the then Nevada governor, Steve Sisolak. Not President Donald Trump or the federal government, but her own state.

    Also, why then did the 42 states that did lockdown, which includes Florida, not all lockdown at the same time? Which BTW, raises an important point to some Republicans considering Ron DeSantis, who think President Trump had a part in locking us down; Hasn’t Ron DeSantis actually admitted to making the mistake of listening to Fauci and the CDC? By the metrics of those of those trying to pin the lockdowns on Trump, DeSantis would also be disqualified as a 2024 contender, and even more so because he actually was “rolled in to it.”

    If Trump declared a national lockdown, then how is that the first state to lockdown was California, and the “shelter in place” order was enacted by none other than Gavin Newsom, totally independent of the federal government? And this right right after the City of San Francisco, the first city in the whole country to lockdown — even in spite having far lower case numbers than NYC — as Mayor London Breed was the first public official in the US to issue a Shelter in Place” order. Not President Trump.

    I remember this very well, because on that day, I had to endure the nonsense from my idiot libTWAT/Neo-Nazi neighbors how the Bay Area was “making history by showing such strong and decisive leadership in a time of crisis.” How many arguments did I get in to with other Neo-LibTARD Nazis who said it was the governors and mayors, like Newsom and Whitmer, Lightfoot, Garcetti, etc., were “saving lives with their ‘leadership'”? I lost my YouTube account because I argued with those Neo-Nazi Democrat toadies, and called those “great leaders” the petty little fascist dictators that they were.

    Let’s also talk about the reopening, which again, did not end at national level. It was state by state, starting with Georgia. Because I remember full well, the glee so many of the Neo-Nazi Democrats were expressing at the prospect of Georgia becoming a cemetery, and how it will “serve them all right” for not going along with their elitist fascism. Which, again, cost me my Linked In account, along with most of my professional contacts, when I called those little Democrat Nazis to task for their disgusting rhetoric.

    These are very important details that we cannot allow to slip down the memory hole. And I will be damned if I allow our history to be rewritten be benefit a political trust fund baby.

    1. george linker

      It was the democrat states that demanded lockdowns. They tried to force the president to do lockdowns. The democrats used the response to win the election blaiming trump for not properly responding. The whole thing was just an election manupulation trick with the public mostly falling for it.

        1. george linker

          Trump was screwed no matter which action he took. The democrats are quite flexable when it comes to winning elections through deception. If he had locked down they would have claimed lockdowns were illegal.

        What is sad, as I have seen many interviews with RFK Jr., is that he is correct about everything else, except this.

        He called the Franken-Jabs what they are, among other things.

        But on who locked who down? He was either he was asleep through all of 2020, or he is lying about this for political reasons.

      Just listened to the article.
      I really enjoyed the author’s writing style.

      Clean versus dirty on every single manner.
      It wasn’t limited to the obsession of germaphobia, but it was also about virtual signaling and control.

      Carolyn is a genius.

      I knew that once they started with the lockdowns, that Covid was the Trojan Horse for Marxism as did you.

      It’s true what the author wrote about the “dirty” red states who were “dirty” from the get-go because they are Conservative.
      Ergo, their results and numbers didn’t count.

      Facts didn’t matter.
      They never did.

      That’s why a person was able to remove the mask while eating, but forced to put it back on when they had to use the restroom.
      That was a stellar example of the lunacy.

    Israeli court orders government to let Palestinians attend Memorial Day event
    Defense Minister Yoav Gallant had barred passage across the Green Line, citing the “complex security situation.”

    (April 24, 2023 / JNS) Israel’s Supreme Court, sitting as the High Court of Justice, overruled Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Sunday and ordered him to allow Palestinians to cross the Green Line to attend an annual joint Memorial Day event.

    In its decision, the court expressed “regret” over Gallant’s decision earlier this month to bar Palestinian participants, despite previous rulings ordering the state to allow them to attend the event, now in its 17th year, hosted by Combatants for Peace.

    Gallant attributed his decision to “the complex security situation” in Judea and Samaria, citing the standard practice of closing the crossings into Green Line Israel over Memorial Day and Independence Day to reduce the risk of terrorist attacks.

    However, the court noted that the Defense Ministry’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories unit, which oversees civilian affairs in Israeli-controlled areas of Judea and Samaria, had approved the request, and that tens of thousands of Palestinians are routinely allowed into Israel every day for various reasons.

    The Kohelet Policy Forum, an Israeli think tank that helped to formulate the government’s judicial reform initiative, slammed the court’s ruling.

    “The petitioners asked the court to require the State of Israel to allow Palestinians to enter despite the [Green Line] closure, despite the security situation and despite the strong opposition of the defense minister. But, as is well known, in Israel, the attorney general decides what the state’s position is.

    “And she [Gali Baharav-Miara] decided that entry must be allowed. This is how the theater of the absurd operates: An ostensible court hearing, which in practice constitutes a one-voice discourse—the petitioners together with the attorney general, and the Israeli government is not even represented in the hearing. And some people ask why there is a need for reform in regulating the attorney general’s powers?”

    A 2019 ruling by the High Court of Justice overturned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision that year to deny permits to dozens of Palestinians planning to attend the event. The court deemed it illegitimate to bar the attendees’ entry for security reasons.

    Organizers say the event is meant to bring Israelis and Palestinians together, whereas opponents argue it legitimizes Palestinian terrorism on a day when the Jewish people mourns its fallen heroes.

    Israel will mark this year’s Memorial Day beginning at 8 p.m. on Monday when a one-minute siren will sound across the country. Commemorations will take place at 52 military cemeteries and memorial sites during the following 24 hours, with the main ceremony held at the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

    Fifty-nine Israeli soldiers fell in the line of duty since the last Memorial Day and an additional 86 disabled veterans died due to their condition, the Defense Ministry announced over the weekend.

    Overall, 24,213 soldiers and terror victims have lost their lives in service to the nation since 1860.

    Herzog to establish worldwide Jewish advisory council
    Kol Ha’am—Voice of the People aims to foster dialogue between Jewish communities and cultivate the next generation of leaders.

    (April 24, 2023 / JNS) Israeli President Isaac Herzog announced on Sunday night the launch of a consultation process with global Jewry, ahead of an initiative to establish a worldwide Jewish advisory council under the Office of the President.

    The initiative, Kol Ha’am—Voice of the People: The President’s Initiative for Worldwide Jewish Dialogue, aims to foster open dialogue between Jewish communities and advise the Israeli president on core challenges facing the Jewish people. The advisory council, which will meet on a recurring basis, will be tasked with taking concrete action to advance collaborative projects and foster future leadership across the Jewish world.

    To this end, Herzog has brought on board the Jewish Agency for Israel and the World Zionist Organization as key partners. The launch effort is being funded by the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Foundation.

    Herzog unveiled the projects at an event held jointly by the Jewish Federations of North America, the Jewish Agency for Israel, the World Zionist Organization and Keren Hayesod in honor of Israel’s 75th Independence Day, as part of the opening ceremony of the 2023 JFNA General Assembly in Tel Aviv.

    “The fact is that between our Jewish communities, and between them and the State of Israel, we are growing at times more distant from one another. The gaps between us are growing wider. On some of the most essential questions, we are unable to agree. But, more concerning, often, we are unable even to discuss,” said Herzog at the conference.

    “That critical web of connectedness—the sense of shared purpose and destiny that has sustained our people for millennia—seems to be loosening. I am convinced that there is no greater existential threat to our people than the one that comes from within: our own polarization and alienation from one another,” he added.

    The next generation
    Herzog explained that the vision of his Voice of the People program is to create “a first-of-its-kind global council for Jewish dialogue.… It will be a place where we can engage in serious, sensitive and strategic discussions on the most complex and pressing issues facing our people. A place where we formulate concrete proposals and action items to address them. But, most importantly, a place to cultivate the next generation of Jewish leaders. I consider this to be its most important function.”

    The president has invited global Jewish communities to join a broad consultation process in 14 major Jewish centers, across six continents, to contribute to realizing his vision. This series of “strategic labs” will be facilitated by international consulting firm Deloitte, with the support of the Jewish Agency and the World Zionist Organization, over June and early July in the following locations: Israel, North America (New York, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Toronto), South America (Buenos Aires, São Paolo), Africa (Johannesburg), Europe (London, Paris, Budapest) and Australia (Melbourne), and virtual labs, in Hebrew and English.

    Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier Sunday canceled a scheduled address at the JFNA General Assembly, amid planned protests over the government’s paused judicial reform program.

    The JFNA last week issued a statement explaining why it had decided not to boycott the prime minister as demanded by obscure and unnamed groups. “The opportunity to hear from Israel’s duly elected president and prime minister is a symbol of Israel’s achievement as a modern democratic state. We look forward to welcoming these officials on this historic occasion,” said the JFNA.

    “Throughout this tumultuous period, we have engaged in close dialogue with both those opposed to the judicial legislation and those supporting it, and welcome all continued conversations. We have also been awed by the powerful statement Israel’s citizens have made exercising their democratic right to protest. Given the immense importance of this debate and its implications for Jews all around the world, we understand that some will choose to exercise that right at the General Assembly. We will do everything we can to ensure that our attendees and security professionals respect these protesters, and expect that any protestors will respect our participants by demonstrating in a way that does not disrupt their ability to attend the event, participate, or listen to the speakers,” added the organization.

    Herzog expressed optimism over the weekend regarding the negotiations taking place under his auspices over the reform initiative, saying they are being held amid a “positive atmosphere.”

    “There’s goodwill and there’s a positive attitude in the room, and things are discussed frankly and honestly,” Herzog told Arutz Sheva in an interview, adding that “all the hard issues [were] on the table” and the sides were attempting to reach an “amicable solution.”

    “I’m definitely giving [the process] a chance. I will say, furthermore: I believe that the alternative is much worse, and all the parties concerned and their leaders know [this]. And more than that I truly believe that if we work well here, and if we work with trust, and we don’t let all sorts of forces undermine the process, we can reach a positive outcome,” the president said.

    IDF shells Hezbollah assets in southern Syria
    The Israeli military also dropped leaflets warning Syrian soldiers against cooperating with the Iranian terror proxy.

    (April 24, 2023 / JNS) Israel Defense Forces tanks reportedly shelled a Syrian army post used by Iranian terrorist proxy Hezbollah early on Monday morning, in the second such incident in as many weeks.

    According to Syrian media, the artillery strike targeted a military observation post located close to the village of Hader in the Quneitra Governorate.

    Thereafter, the IDF dropped leaflets in the area warning Syrian soldiers against cooperating with Hezbollah.

    The Israeli military did not comment on the development.

    The IDF last week struck assets belonging to Hezbollah in the Syrian-held part of the Golan Heights.

    And earlier this month, the IDF attacked targets in Syria in response to six rockets fired towards the Golan Heights. Among the targets were a military compound of the Fourth Division of the Syrian Armed Forces, military radar systems and artillery posts.

    “The IDF sees the Syrian state as responsible for all activities occurring within its territory and will not allow any attempts to violate Israeli sovereignty,” the military said.

    Israel regularly conducts airstrikes in Syria with a view to preventing Iran and its terror proxies, foremost among them Lebanon-based Hezbollah, from developing permanent military infrastructure with which to open a front against the Jewish state.

    Israel to hit back harder against terrorist aggression
    The new paradigm is intended to send a clear message to Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran that Jerusalem will not stand idly by when it is attacked.

    (April 23, 2023 / JNS) Israel will respond with greater force to Palestinian terrorism emanating from Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told members of the Security Cabinet recently.

    Netanyahu instructed the relevant security authorities to prepare for the policy shift beginning after Israel marks its 75th Independence Day on Tuesday and Wednesday.

    The premier told officials not to comment on the prospective counterterrorism measures, which are intended to send a clear message to Hamas, Hezbollah and their patron Iran that Jerusalem will not stand idly by when it is attacked, and to restore deterrence against the country’s enemies.

    Last week, the Israel Defense Forces struck assets belonging to Hezbollah, firing artillery at targets in Quneitra in the Syrian-held part of the Golan Heights. And earlier this month, the military hit targets in Syria in response to six rockets fired towards the Jewish state. Among the targets were a military compound of the Fourth Division of the Syrian Armed Forces, military radar systems and artillery posts.

    The IDF regularly conducts airstrikes in Syria with a view to preventing Iran and its terror proxies, foremost among them the Lebanon-based Hezbollah, from developing permanent military infrastructure with which to open a front against the Jewish state.

    Early this month, terrorists in the Gaza Strip fired 44 projectiles at Israel, prompting the IDF to strike more than 10 Hamas targets in the Palestinian enclave, including weapons manufacturing sites and attack tunnels. The military also struck Hamas assets in southern Lebanon after Hamas fired 34 rockets from the Hezbollah-controlled country towards northern Israel.

    Palestinian and Arab Israeli terrorists have also perpetrated several deadly attacks since the beginning of this year.

    As a result, dancing waves of light, also called aurora borealis, could appear in 30 states, stretching all the way from Washington state to New Jersey.

    However, where exactly the lights will surface remains uncertain.

      *Sivan Rahav-Meir / The Daily Portion / I am not a robot!*

      * Translation by Yehoshua Siskin

      I had planned on writing about my Shabbat here in New York, but on Motza’ei Shabbat I heard about something that happened in America that deserves more attention.

      A group of Israeli teenagers were competing in an international competition in robotics in Houston, Texas. Their team consisted of students from the Amit High School in Modi’in. They had succeeded in reaching the final stage of the competition which was held on Shabbat.

      They wrote a letter in which they explained that they observed Shabbat and were not willing to compromise their values for the sake of the competition. In their otherwise empty booth, they had left Shabbat candles, challah, a Kiddush cup, and an Israeli flag, together with a short explanation of what Shabbat is all about.

      The announcer at the competition read their letter in front of all the other competitors and then something surprising happened. Students from all over the world stood up and applauded. The announcer then spoke these words: “Thank you for the reminder that there are other things outside the world of robotics that are also important.”

    Israel’s military spending drops for the first time since 2009

    Israel fell from 14th to 15th place in the ranking of the world’s largest defense budgets, according to a report by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) for 2022.

    The Jewish state invested $23.4 billion, or 1 percent of total global spending, in its defense sector in 2022. This is the first drop in military spending in Israel since 2009.

    The report said, however, that the actual spending in Israel did not match the defense budget for 2022, and the drop occurred despite the increase in attacks in Syria and growing tensions with the Palestinians. Israel ranks tenth in the world for military spending as a proportion of GDP, at 4.5 percent.

      The mill was not a success due to a lack of wind.[5] Wind conditions in Jerusalem could not guarantee its continued operation.
      There were probably no more than 20 days a year with strong enough breezes.
      Another reason for the mill’s failure was technological.
      The machinery was designed for soft European wheat, which required less wind power than the local wheat.
      Nevertheless, the mill operated for nearly two decades until the first steam-powered mill was completed in Jerusalem in 1878.

      One point.
      Biblical Hebrew is the foundation for Modern Hebrew (Ivrit).

      I don’t understand his pride in not speaking Biblical Hebrew.
      That’s Hashem’s magnificent language, and to reiterate, the foundation of Ivrit.

      1. IsraelReader

        Unfortunately, his statement reflects the attitude of secular Zionists.
        They want to create a “new Israel”, with a new religion, called, “Zionism”.
        To do so, they’ve disconnected themselves from the Bible, only cherry-picking certain items that suit them.
        I give him credit for eating Matzah on Passover and fasting on Yom Kippur (that’s more than many others do).
        He was also probably circumcised as a baby and doesn’t deny that he’s Jewish.
        But as a secular person, he also rejects living a fully Biblical life, which is the basis of Judaism.
        Hence his expression of disdain for Yiddish, Ladino, or Biblical Hebrew.
        All these represent to him “Tradition”, the thing that is anathema to his new religion.
        He will always be a biological Jew, but he needs to be reJEWvenated.
        The problem is that he doesn’t realize it and is satisfied by merely being an “Israeli”.

        1. IsraelReader

          Many Jewish atheists are aware that they’re genetically Jewish but have substituted “Torah Judaism” with “cultural Judaism”, and they have no problem “observing” “rituals” that are associated with “cultural Judaism”, as long as it doesn’t involve belief in God, at least not as the commanding Creator of biblical tradition.

          The “cultural Jew” is someone who might even do some sort of Jewish practice. For example, they might eat Matzah on Passover, but not as a Commandment from God, but as a Jewish “cultural” thing to do. Their act of eating Matzah isn’t an act of service to God, since they don’t believe there is any inherent Commandment involved.

          Some “cultural Jews” even fast on Yom Kippur and use that day to reflect on their actions of the past year and contemplate self-improvement. But this has nothing to do with God.

          The “cultural Jew” is comfortable in participating in the culture of being Jewish, and thinks about Jewish history and memory, but has turned his back on Judaism’s primary source book, the Torah.

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            TYMK for these additional thoughts.

            Keeping Commandments because of “culture” and not because Hashem commanded us to keep them, is an extremely slippery slope.

            I recently started learning Mesillas Yesharim again. I’m finishing Shaar Hazehirus.
            We’re cautioned to care about battling the Yetzer Horah.
            If we are lackadaisical and don’t care to put in the effort, Hashem won’t help save us from him.
            In order to merit help from Hashem, we have to put in even a bit of effort and care!

            Obviously, those who turned their backs on Torah, stopped caring.

            Of course, Hashem always awaits the return of those who have strayed.

          2. IsraelReader

            Far from merely being a slippery slope, keeping Commandments because of “culture”, and not because God commanded us to keep them, is a fundamental denial of the authority of the Torah.
            When man thinks that he can pick and choose which rituals he wants to practice, then he has made himself the god of his own little universe and is a denial of God’s authority.

            The Book “Mesillas Yesharim” (Path of the Just), by Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto.
            It’s a classical work on Jewish ethics, and a “must read” for anyone looking striving for religious and ethical perfection, and a guide to various levels of character refinement.

            Why did Aish Hatorah put that video on YouTube?
            I can suggest two different theories:
            1. They didn’t think through the subtle message of the video and didn’t see my analysis.
            2. They were aware of the problem, but decided to overlook it in favor of trying to reach out to those people who are so unaffiliated with Judaism, that they’re even ashamed to identify themselves as Jews, and are typically against the State of Israel, which they view as practicing “apartheid”.
            This video directly targets people from this type of audience.

    Just In – Harry Belafonte, 96, Dies; Barrier-Breaking Singer, Actor and Activist

    Harry Belafonte, who stormed the pop charts and smashed racial barriers in the 1950s with his highly personal brand of folk music, and who went on to become a major force in the civil rights movement, died on Tuesday at his home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. He was 96.

    The cause was congestive heart failure, said Ken Sunshine, his longtime spokesman.

    He won two Grammys for his folk recordings (and years later, in 2000, a Grammy lifetime-achievement award). Popular with both white and black audiences, Belafonte made a point of refusing to perform in the Jim Crow South, maintaining the embargo from 1954 to 1961.

    “You could take the five worst presidents in American history, and put them together, and they would not have done the damage Joe Biden has done to our Nation in just a few short years. Not even close.

    Thanks to Joe Biden’s socialist spending calamity, American families are being decimated by the worst inflation in half a century. Banks are failing. Our currency is crashing and the dollar will soon no longer be the world standard, which will be our greatest defeat in over 200 years. Real wages have been falling 24 months in a row—in other words, under Biden, workers have gotten a PAY CUT each and every month for two straight years. We have surrendered our energy independence, just like we surrendered in Afghanistan, which we had just a short time ago—and the price of gasoline just hit a 5-month high, and it’s going much higher than that.”

And then Barbara Simpson, who was a veteran investigative journalist who did a weekend show, and who was a little too successful at getting people involved at the local level.

    KSFO used to be the only station in the whole Bay Area with any good content on during the weekends. Now, just like every other talk station out here, it’s all just infomercials on the weekends.

    Even their sister station, KGO, which for years was all local, and mostly all libTARD with few exceptions like John Batchelor, is now all sports talk.

      It’s always about the money.
      As my father always stressed: “FOLLOW THE MONEY.”

          “Yerushalayim will never be divided again.” is a great slogan, but unfortunately, this is NOT in our hands.

          The Torah spells it out. If we adhere to the Torah, we will find favor in His eyes, and if we don’t, we can get severely punished.
          The Holocaust should serve as a reminder of that.
          Repeatedly saying “Never Again”, will not be of much help, if God has it in for His people.

            You are correct about Yerushalayim never being divided again being synonymous with “Never Again” of the Holocaust.

            I never thought about that before in this manner, because the Gedolim (great sages) have said that the process of the redemption is unfolding, but it is a PROCESS.

            Redemption is an unfolding process, but there might be some setbacks here and there.
            There is absolutely no guarantee that everything is just going to get better and better.
            Israel needs to be deserving of redemption, and judging by current events in Israel, things seem to indicate that unfortunately, we’re not quite ready to be there yet.
            Redemption will come along with the Israelites recognizing God’s dominion in the world, and willfully following His Torah.
            When people in Israel fight for being able to flaunt leavened bread on Passover, to be able to publicly desecrate the Sabbath, and flaunt their sexual perversions on full parade, that is a sign that unfortunately, we still have a long way to go.
            But I believe that could do anything, and He can make things happen in a way that will inspire His people to willfully come aboard and accept His agenda.

            There is just cause why our Sages of blessed memory, compared the coming of Moshiach to a woman in labor.
            As you are well aware, the closer one is to giving birth, the higher the pain levels.
            That’s what will happen and is occurring.
            Every day is worse and worse.

            AGREED.
            We need to keep the Torah.
            Hashem made Himself crystal clear about this.
            MANY TIMES.

            Rabbi Avigdor Miller ZTL said that Hashem stopped sending us prophets because we ceased to listen.

            Torah, is our very purpose of being.
            It’s our duty to keep it, (and what a tremendous joy it is to do so)!

            The Alphabet People parades, anti-Torah laws that are governing Israel, etc., is a nightmare of epic proportions.

            May we see the fulfillment of Hosea 3:5 “Afterwards shall the children of Israel return, and seek the L-rd their G-d and David their king, and they shall come trembling to the L-rd and to His goodness at the end of days.

            (We know that exile was going to be a very long time. Hosea 3:4 “For the children of Israel shall remain for many days, having neither king, nor prince, nor sacrifice, nor pillar, nor ephod nor teraphim.” Many days in the TANACH, is a very long time.)

            May everyone wake up already.
            Only then, will the suffering end.

            💔💔💔😪😪😪

          Remember, that the so-called “two-state solution”, which calls for separate Israeli and Palestinian states with borders resembling those that existed before the 1967 war, would require a Palestinian capital in East Jerusalem.
          That would represent a very traumatic redivision of Jerusalem.
          Do we have a guarantee that circumstances will never develop, that will God forbid force Israel to have to accept such a reality?

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            The only guarantees that we have, is that Hashem was, is, and always will be.
            He always keeps His promises.
            His track record is impeccable and proven.
            Moreover, if we all did Teshuvah (repentance), Moshiach would be here.

            That is for certain.

          2. IsraelReader

            Since the only guarantee that we have, is that Hashem was, is, and always will be, I therefore take issue with those that glibly declare, “Never Again”, or “Yerushalayim will never be divided again”.
            What is the basis of such a declaration? From where is the certainty?
            Wishful thinking?
            I believe that it would be more prudent to say that “We hope/pray that… (insert wish/prayer)”.

          3. Proud Conservative Mom

            I concur absolutely with all that you wrote and very much appreciate it (as I do, all of your wise words).

            Yerushalayim can be divided again.

            The Israelites are divided and so few keep Torah.
            Historically, when we didn’t keep the Torah, it has NEVER EVER boded well for us.

            It was always a tremendous recipe for disaster.
            We were duly warned.

            Actions have consequences, just like in the physical realm.
            The spiritual realm is no different.

      BH, I am chugging along.
      Sunday was very frightening (the crescendo of pain).

      BH, BH, BH, I held onto my Dilaudid.
      I would have had to go to the ER otherwise.

      My CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapist) pain specialist told me that I should absolutely use it if it G-d forbid happens again.

      Usually I am able to manage with my Gabapentin.

      I am going to Monsey immediately
      thereafter to pay a Shiva (condolence call) to the family of the “uncle” that I lost on Sunday.

      (My emotions NEVER have effected my pain. There is never a rhyme or reason.)

          As we know, evil always gets their hands on narcotics and opioids.

          Legitimately ill people are being punished because of the criminals. The required pain relief to live a normal life is being withheld from many innocent people.

          Doctors are on an extremely tight leash in being able to prescribe medications that grant adequate pain relief.

    Donald Trump ‘listening’ to insiders urging him to make DeSantis his VP pick

    While the polls have Trump leading Florida Gov. DeSantis in a potential 2024 GOP race, some Trumpworld insiders are urging the former president to make DeSantis his running mate — and Trump is “listening,” we hear.

    A Trumpworld source tells Page Six, “Some of his supporters are suggesting he make a deal with DeSantis to make him VP, and he’s listening, but hasn’t agreed.”

    The source added, “Supporters say the VP offer [would] stop DeSantis from opposing [Trump] and offer a ‘youthful conservative vigor’ to the slot, which Biden doesn’t have.”

      Gotta just love all the speculation and “what if” scenarios being thrown about, and even been ran with as if they were actualities. Just earlier today, someone was floating Trump picking RFK Jr as his VP on Steve Banon’s show, and of course, the internet rumors all swirl like mad and people run with it.

      Most Floridians, from what I am hearing, just want DeSantis to just finish out his second term, and find a suitable successor.

      There are plenty that could be Trump’s VP. But even those who want solid conservatives like DeSantis or Kristi Noem, or even Kari Lake to be his VP, forget one major important thing. Other than being a tie breaking vote in the Senate, a VP is mostly just a figurehead. Why not suggest those people for more prominent cabinet positions where they can actually effect policy, like when Trump made Ben Carson the head of HUD?

      For instance, if someone were to suggest making say Kari Lake the VP, which might look nice on a ticket, but when the race is over, then what? How about instead put her in charge of DHS or the Border Patrol so she can work her expertise? Wouldn’t that make more sense?

    China pushes largest-ever expansion of nuclear arsenal

    China is pushing ahead with the largest-ever expansion of its nuclear arsenal, modernising the atomic deterrent with an eye on any future conflicts with the United States, experts say.

    The SIPRI think tank estimates that China has a stockpile of around 350 nuclear warheads — small fry when compared with the United States and Russia.

    But it is growing fast, and could have 1,500 warheads by 2035, according to a Pentagon estimate published in November.

    “China appears to no longer be satisfied with just a few hundred nuclear weapons to ensure its security,” Matt Korda, of the Federation of American Scientists, told AFP.

    🚨Breaking Now – House passes McCarthy’s debt ceiling bill by two votes, four Republicans vote against

    House Republicans delivered Speaker Kevin McCarthy the biggest win of his tenure leading the chamber so far on Wednesday by passing his bill to raise the debt limit and slash spending, a bill that serves as the GOP’s position on how to avoid a debt crisis in the coming weeks.

    The bill passed in a narrow 217-215 vote – every Democrats voted against it, as expected, along with four Republicans. The bill that introduces spending cuts that the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates will save $4.8 trillion over a decade.

    *Sivan Rahav-Meir / The Daily Portion / The greatest story ever told* (from yesterday)

    * Translation by Yehoshua Siskin

    More than a thousand people came to an Independence Day ceremony at the Young Israel of Woodmere synagogue in New York. The following are among my remarks at this event:

    “This week I heard the following question: In another 75 years, where will Israel be? *Well, the most predictable thing about the Jewish people is their unpredictability*. They break all the rules. There is no precedent for a nation that loses one-third of its people — six million — all at once. But then there is no precedent for a nation that was scattered to the four corners of the earth but kept its faith, its identity, and its homeland, and then rose from the ashes after two thousand years.

    We are simply too preoccupied with our daily troubles and internal conflicts to do a zoom out for a brief moment in order to see the process that is at work. Sure there are difficulties and setbacks but the number of casualties from all the wars and terrorist attacks in the State of Israel is the same as the number of those who died in Auschwitz in a single month.

    It is not unrealistic to predict that the nation of Israel will continue to fulfill all the positive prophecies that are found in the Bible. This is completely realistic. Indeed, these prophecies were read for thousands of years in Yemen and in Morocco, in Poland and in Russia, but for us these prophecies, such as the following one, have come true:
    *’Old men and women shall yet sit in the streets of Jerusalem . .And the streets of Jerusalem shall be filled with boys and girls playing.’* These words of the prophet Zechariah have come to pass in the playground in my own neighborhood.

    The forecast for Messianic times has been recorded as follows: ‘The wolf will live with the lamb and the leopard shall lie down with the kid,’ and *”Out of Zion shall the Torah go forth and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.”* Israel can and must be the center of peace, creativity, education, and technology. Above all, the start-up nation must lead the world in spiritual start-ups of faith, holiness, and morality.

    This week I met thousands of our friends, Jews and non-Jews alike. I did not know we had so many unofficial ambassadors. Thanks to all of you in the United States who chose to be on our side, the right side of history, even when it’s not always popular to be there.

    I am often asked as a journalist to name my biggest scoop. The answer is this: *My biggest scoop is the story of the nation of Israel.* There is no story more exciting than ours, with more chapters still to come.

    Happy Independence Day.

    A couple of very important bits of information:

    1. Having Covid can cause iron deficiency.
    (I never had iron deficiency before having Covid. It never came up in my blood work prior.)

    2. Being extremely iron deficient, causes fatigue (I knew that) and brain fog (didn’t know that one).

    I’m putting this information out there because it’s extremely dangerous to be iron deficient.
    Some (of us) don’t even know if they contracted it.

    Ergo, I very highly recommend getting blood work to check your iron levels when you have an appointment with your physician.

    Knowledge is power.

      Blaming it on Covid is not such a pat answer, since that can lead to lower iron levels up to two months after infection.

    As a side…

    “After being told that the pandemic was our greatest challenge in a century, we are being urged to move on, forget the past, and return to a normal life. ‘Move on,’ they say. ‘There is nothing to see here. The crisis is over, no harm done.’ These are the words tyrants use and that is why, for me, there is a moral imperative to confront tyranny, even within our sacred halls of ‘democracy.’ Whether it is democracy or not, future historians will judge, if Western civilization lasts that long, which I doubt.

    The only way we can “move on” is through swift and harsh justice. And that even goes for all the “normies” who make the “that’s just how the world is” excuses.

      (I told them that I wasn’t interested in their “dam” (I slipped. 🙄) agenda and they should lose my phone number. My 18 year old’s jaw dropped. He knows I am very mindful of my language. Sigh. 🙊🙉🙈)

      In any event, these corrupt people don’t have a leg to stand on in lecturing to the East about democracy.
      Their own behavior screams hypocrisy.

      No one will take them seriously anymore and why should they?

      I have always loathed hypocrites.
      As we know, that’s precisely what Marxists are!

      1. Weary Traveler

        Somehow it is more impactful, when someone like you uses a minor curse word like “damn”, then when some heathen like me hurls an F-bomb in righteous outrage. It confirms just how truly evil and diabolical these people are.

        Right, our so-called “leaders” have no right to lecture anyone about human rights. Before, during or after COVID.

        I could have fully done without the closing statement of the author. I was just as bothered by that as I was the Xtians who claimed COVID and 9/11 were “God’s judgement” on America for Roe V Wade. And I agree with them with regards to abortion being evil.

        And where are all those self-righteous bozos now that Roe V Wade has been overturned? They sure went silent. I don’t hear them coming out and saying anything about government leaders advising women to have abortions to “fight inflation”. Which is exactly the opposite of what a government is supposed to do. If they can only prolong and exacerbate suffering rather than alleviate it, they are good for nothing.

  259. Weary Traveler

    This alludes to what I was saying the other day with regard to my critique of of the speech given by RFK Jr. They are already trying desperately to rewrite the history, and we simply cannot allow ANYTHING to be memory-holed. We all have to be more persistent in pushing back on their revisionist history then they are at pushing it.

    The Washington Post Whitewashes the Covid Response

      I love the sarcasm of Rice (the author).
      He perfectly describes how I feel about the items that the Washington Compost lauded.

      Stopping the spread?
      Indeed, it was covered up.

      Moreover, We the People who refused to get poisoned had to fight the mandates.
      It cost you your job, and so many others.

      It was a war against our rights and freedom to say: HECK NO. I WILL NEVER BE A TEST SUBJECT!

      YES. I recollect the insanity of everything being sanitized as if people suddenly became inflicted with OCD. There is a container for “used” pens in many offices. 🙄🤦
      (Much less frequent now, BH!)

      Is it praiseworthy that there is a big agency (actually several), that are weaponized against We the People?!

      These people are EVIL.
      They won’t settle for anything less than total and complete tyranny.

      1. Weary Traveler

        In many ways, the COVID hysteria reminded me of the AIDS epidemic and the scare around it. Funny enough, even though a far deadlier than COVID, society still functioned for the most part. But I do recall a lot of “othering”, and people using their feet and elbows when flushing toilets or turning faucets on and off in public restrooms, and some people even being afraid to eat out because “what if your chef or waiter had HIV/AIDS.”

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          That’s a very valid point.
          Remember how we were terrified about not going near someone with AIDS let alone touch them in any manner?
          I remember the impression that it made on me in my formative years.

          So much “science” was made up.
          I am so very triggered by the words “the science” and “the experts.”
          That’s probably because those were the catalyst for us continuing to be abused and made prisoners in our own domiciles.

          1. Weary Traveler

            Which makes it even more ironic that the left were the biggest tyrants and Karens during COVID. Especially when you consider that during the AIDS epidemic, it was one of their favored groups that was otherized most, which was the gay community.

          3. Weary Traveler

            And funny enough… Which little elf was making up most of the “science” back then? Little Tony Faucist.

  260. Tony

    “My great-grandfather fought in World War One”
    “My grand- father fought in World War Two”.
    “My father was imprisoned in World War Covid!

    1. Weary Traveler

      You missed a few….

      My father was conscripted to fight a war in Vietnam based on a false flag to enrich LBJ.
      My son fought in Iraq and/or Afghanistan because our own government facilitated an act of terrorism against its own people in order to institute a form of martial law called “The Patriot Act”.
      My grandson was imprisoned/cancelled during World War COVID.
      My other Grandson was sent to Ukraine to fight alongside and for Neo-Nazis in order to protect the Biden family’s money laundering operation.

      1. Tony

        You are older than I thought you were. I remember the marches in London against the Vietnam war, although I was too young and only
        learned what it was all about many years later.

        1. Weary Traveler

          My dad was actually drafted during the Vietnam war by the Army, and they wanted to send him to Vietnam. But he did get out of going overseas by enlisting in the US Navy, and instead got stationed up in Seattle, which was where my brother was born.

          The funny thing about the protests, is I sometimes wonder if they would have been as large if not for the draft. But at the same time, if not for the draft, they would not have been able to conduct the ground war they did, and would instead have to be more strategic. Like just positioning the Navy in the right spot would have ended it in a matter of days.

          We lost that war because our government wasn’t fighting it to win it. That’s why they used ground troops like they did, even though there was no need to.

          I know there were people with intellectual arguments against it. Both my dad and his dad opposed the war, and my paternal grandfather was a WWII vet that served in the Pacific Theater, and he said the Vietnam was all BS, and was being handled poorly. So it wasn’t just hippies and pacifists feeling that way. They just all had different reasons and motivations.

          2. Weary Traveler

            We haven’t fought a war with the intent of winning it since the second world war. And even then….

            The first world war was handled badly and totally avoidable.

            Since the invention of tactical nuclear weapons and satellite guidance systems, there is no longer any need for any kind of a prolonged ground war. The second they talk about sending troops over, even without a draft, you know at the very least it is all about laundering money, and there is most likely little to no intention of winning it. Just costing lives, and demoralizing the military and the country in the process.

          3. Proud Conservative Mom

            You said a very righteous mouthful!
            Your second paragraph is extremely spot on.

            “The second they talk about sending troops over, even without a draft, you know at the very least it is all about laundering money, and there is most likely little to no intention of winning it.”

            💯💯💯💯💯💯

          4. Sapper 9

            It isn’t about winning, it is about controlling the population growth for a certain segment of the population and feeding the military industrial complex.

    🚨New – Whistleblower Who Was Planning to Reveal ‘Explosive’ Information on Biden Family Corruption Has Disappeared

    Dr. Gal Luft, the co-director of the Washington-based Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, was preparing to reveal explosive information about a Biden family international corruption scandal. Now he has suddenly gone missing under mysterious circumstances after a Larnaca court had released him on bail, the Cyprus Mail reported.

    Luft was an adviser to CEFC China Energy, which paid Hunter Biden around $5 million in 2017 alone. Luft said that he was arrested on bogus weapon trafficking charges in January, claiming that it was attempt to silence him.

    “DOJ is trying to bury me to protect Joe, Jim, and Hunter Biden,” he continued. “Shall I name names?”

    Luft’s lawyer said that he had given the FBI information during the Trump administration on the Bidens, which he planned to submit in a letter to Congress. He also learned that someone was selling sealed U.S. law enforcement information to Chinese individuals.

      Good evening Sarge!
      Always fabulous to see you!

      How are you doing?

      Those roses are beautiful! 🥰🥰🥰

      BH, I am persisting with a sense of humor.

      LOL, when I get frustrated with myself, I have a very sarcastic sense of humor directed at me.
      My 21 year old couldn’t stop laughing.

      I love to laugh. 😃😃😃

      1. "Divergent" sgthwjack ✯

        Doing OK, life is good here on the edge of nowhere.

        Laughter is good for the spirit, and less messy than crying! 😉

      1. Weary Traveler

        Usually I am the one complaining about how time is moving so much faster than I do. LOL

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          No worries.
          Besides, I am not the only member of the blog.

          Someone else might be alot quicker on the draw then me right now.
          (Hopefully.)

          BH, even with the brain fog, I still opine that I am nowhere near the negative I.Q. level of AOC
          (Brain fog, really scares me.)

          I think I can still keep up with most intelligent people.
          Brain fog from severe iron deficiency is not as horrible as brain fog from Covid, but it’s still not fun. 🙃🙂

          1. Weary Traveler

            AOC is a special case. She is the poster child for why women shouldn’t drink or smoke, or do drugs while pregnant, and also why cousins shouldn’t marry. LOL

          5. Weary Traveler

            That’s a tough one. Although I am tempted to lean towards the latter, I am going to have to go with the former since stupidity really is a choice.

        2. Proud Conservative Mom

          I am going to bid you good night and to everyone else as well.

          There is no way that I have the ability to focus on a fifteen minute read right now.

          I have been in bed at 9:30 lately, asleep by about 9:45, and up at 5:00 (not by choice – for the most part I just can’t fall back asleep).
          I have had that problem with getting up at 5:00 for a while already, no matter what time I fall asleep.

          I just need more sleep due to the extreme fatigue.
          (I am going to aggressively investigate as to who the proper person is who can help me get to the bottom of it.)

          2. Proud Conservative Mom

            I wanted to thank you, and to wish you a wonderful evening and weekend overall. 😊😊😊

            (I’ll most likely be back on Sunday. Shabbos ends late this time of year. It’s going to get alot later, as you know.)

          3. Weary Traveler

            I know… The plus side is I will get to see Marty this afternoon since Chabad starts much later for him. Just a little bit ago, Fridays were totally off the table.

          4. AlgorithmicAnalyst

            I can only sleep a couple hours at a time now. So I am usually tired after I wake up. The main thing is to avoid taking risks when I’m tired, as being tired makes me accident prone.

      1. John Gillis

        I who’ll agree. Weary Traveler! If I have my way, I’ll be fully employed and have paid vacation time again.

        I need more times like these for certain.

        1. Weary Traveler

          Right? Even my little weekend in Monterey a couple of summers ago now was much needed.

          Problem for me is that paid vacations were too far between for me. Is it any wonder I fantasize about winning the Lotto? Wanting to correct a huge imbalance. If not over-correct it.

          2. Weary Traveler

            Prunedale is a bit too landlocked for my liking. Seaside is alright. The Monterey peninsula is my favorite spot. Especially around Pacific Grove.

          6. Weary Traveler

            Yes, it’s right on HWY 101 at HWY 156. Just a stone’s throw away from Castroville, which is supposed to be “the artichoke capital of the world.”

            There are very good artichokes out there, and some good fruit and vegetable stands. There is a spot somewhere around there we used to go that made excellent fried artichokes.

      Look forward to seeing you back. May next week be a calmer week for you. And every week after that from here on out.

        I wish my eyebrows were that thick! Then I’d shape them. My sister wants to microblade them for me because they went thin and white.

    2. John Gillis

      Omg!!!!! Thank Hashem I don’t have to worry about hair loss.

      But if I had that problem, I’d just Vin Diesel it!

      1. Weary Traveler

        Same here, thanks to good genes. I would hate to think what I would have to do if I wasn’t so lucky. I would probably have to learn to love hats.

        I feel bad for the guys who have that problem, and I can’t help but wonder how much of it is really genetic/natural versus chemically induced with all the crap in our bodies, and the awful stuff in our environments. Not to mention the stresses on people.

        1. John Gillis

          I’ve often wondered the same thing. I was determined to keep my hair no matter what. Part of it was remaining positive, but also maintaining my health.

          And seeing a doctor who specializes in hair health. At my age now, I’m envied by men young enough to be my sons.

          1. Weary Traveler

            Yeah, it’s not easy for a lot of guys. Hair is one of those many avenues for self-expression. I don’t in anyway fault the guys that have the means to get the hair replacement surgery and who do.

            I don’t think it is really naturally occurring because G-d isn’t evil. But power hungry men and women sure are.

        1. george linker

          Medical science claims that with surgery and hormone treatment they can alter what one is. Are you saying they are lying?

          1. Chief Mac

            Sure as hell am saying it. Surgery and hormone treatments can never change a person’s sex. If a person doesn’t have ovaries and a uterus they cannot have a child. Testes are required to create sperm and inseminate a female. Until science can do both it ain’t a sex change

          2. george linker

            Even if science can do that they will not have changed anyone into a different sex. It is not within their ability.

    3. Weary Traveler

      All too apropos to the story I posted above.

      The left only embraces you if you support your own demise. Proof positive of that is to look at just how horribly they treat women, blacks, or gays that are conservative.

      Once the trannies have served their purpose, they would eliminate them too.

    What Kind of Culture Are They Planning for you?

    https://brownstone.org/articles/what-kind-of-culture-are-they-planning-for-you/

    “This, in many ways is what happens when humanists, reacting to the long-standing sense of inferiority so many of them harbor in relation to science and their scientific colleagues (itself a reaction to their muffled sense of shame at supposedly being less in step with society’s cult of material progress), seek to apply second-hand versions of analytical methods designed by scientists to the study of culture.

    That’s a very nice way of saying that the people calling the shots are life’s losers in every regard. Like I said about Obummer when we was president, and it would certainly apply to Brandon as well, and every Democrat for that matter. When losers are put in charge, everyone loses.

    “Part of this is the result of base human cowardice in the face of ostentatious demonstrations of persecutory power.”

    Cowards afraid of other cowards. That’s basically what it boils down to.

      1. Weary Traveler

        Their eyes should have glowed red at the first one. These psychopaths all need to be strung up.

      1. Weary Traveler

        They came a long way from the original definition of that word, going back to ancient Greece when it meant that beauty brought one closer to the divine.

  284. Weary Traveler

    Here’s one to make your blood boil. To show much time I don’t spend in Oakland even with it being a mere stone’s throw away form me, a neighbor of mine — one of the few I am okay with — showed me a picture of a billboard that she saw in Oakland, so I had to look it up to see who was behind this crap.

    A Bay Area billboard battle breaks out between Jews over branding of anti-Zionism

    https://www.jta.org/2023/02/02/united-states/a-bay-area-billboard-battle-breaks-out-between-jews-over-branding-of-anti-zionism

    Figures this would be in Oakland where, like all Bay Area liberals, they have the nerve to call US all “Nazis.” I pray Hashem wakes up the Hayward fault, and just sinks that miserable scumbag city to the bay.

      1. Weary Traveler

        Mine too when I saw that. Who, other than Soros, betray their own people like that.

        And I have heard that same lie being touted on that revamped billboard from quite a few woke blacks. Naturally, that was immediately what my mind jumped to when I saw the picture and I was told it was in Oakland of all places.

    2. AlgorithmicAnalyst

      Berkeley-Oakland leftist radicals are the worst I know of. Most people probably don’t know about them.

      1. Weary Traveler

        They only heard of them and only think they know how bad they really are.

        Bay Area Liberals not only prove that liberalism is a mental disorder, but so much so, one would want to euthanize the mentally ill after encountering them.

    2. Proud Conservative Mom

      John, apologies for deleting your very kind query.

      I’m BH alive and trying to remain positive.
      It doesn’t help to wallow in negativity 24/7.

      In fact, it pulls us down.

      Might I suggest that everyone try to add one positive thought a day?

      It’s just something that I have been thinking very hard about. 🤔🤔🤔

      What are your thoughts about it?

      I’m extremely fatigued from the iron deficiency and have a bit of brain fog.

      But I am HERE.
      The gift of life is priceless.

      1. John Gillis

        I don’t recall seeing it deleted, but no worries.

        I need to come up with some positive thoughts. At ti.es, I despair especially when I’m trying to revitalize my career.

        I agree, we should all do at least one good thought on this board today.

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          The despair is very understandable.
          We’re living in a very frightening world.

          I opine that it would be extremely beneficial to uplift each other and create a balance.

          May Hashem bless you and everyone herein success with all of your endeavors.

          A fabulous way to start the day is by thanking Hashem for another day of life.
          We’re not owed anything.

          FYI, I am speaking first and foremost to myself regarding remaining positive and keeping my perspective in check.

          1. John Gillis

            And I wish you much health, Rivka! You see a positive force for all of us and I cherish your example!

          2. Proud Conservative Mom

            AMEN AND AMEN!

            You’re very kind.
            Truly.

            I’m trying to do what I must to get to the source of it.
            BH, it’s not caused by a malignancy.

            I’m exceedingly grateful.

            That being said, it’s extremely dangerous and the infusion will just be a bandaid.

            I’m putting in my efforts and asking Hashem to guide me to the solution.

      3. Weary Traveler

        On that topic… I have been watching some old episodes of ALF on YouTube.

        There was one in particular I was watching the other night that jumped out at me.

        Quick rundown in case you are not familiar with the show, it’s about an alien living with a suburban family after he crashes in to their garage when his home planet is destroyed.

        In this episode, ALF is addicted to eating cotton balls, and we find out that cotton makes his species high. Towards the end, he reveals that he is homesick and very lonely. And, although grateful to the Tanners for taking him in and protecting him, it’s not the same because he needs his own kind. Although, he says, he needs to be able to talk about how he feels more.

        I could relate to poor ALF in that one = being where I don’t really belong, and out of my element with no way of returning. I would also add that I feel a lot of anger and resentment to that mix, for being taken along for the ride. I feel more like a hostage than anything.

        The craziness, and the injustices we are all dealing with have a lot of us grieving, and all in different ways. And worse, the hits just keep coming so it is not like we get a chance to heal. At least I know that is how I have been feeling lately.

        It’s just too bad that the only way many of us get to talk to those, like the folks here who actually get it, is for the most part, through a computer screen. More positive reinforcement is indeed needed. No argument there.

      10,526 nickels? That’s pretty heavy. I remember working as a surveillance agent at a casino and the hard count people, had to push carts filled with coins.

      One kid made the mistake of trying to push the coin cart with one hand a sprained his wrist.

      I learned when I was 5 years old. Only played one Grand Master in my life and the best I did was a stalemate

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        That’s very impressive!

        My son never played a Grand Master, but he gets challenged alot by those who really know how to play.
        He doesn’t have as much time to play as he used to.
        He wins almost every game he plays.

          1. Sapper 9

            Traveler – when you don’t have the life you want – then it is up to you to make your life work for you.

            I still work on my life and it is far from perfect, but every day it gets better

          2. Weary Traveler

            I get what you are saying. I do. I have always worked, and worked hard, with too little reward. I am way beyond sick and tired of it.

          3. Chief Mac

            Oh I get you. It sounds a lot like me. It only took 40 years to become an overnight success. Now companies come out of the woodwork to offer me really good jobs, that only took 40 years. My wife and I have lots of issues and it still hurts. Nothing about life is easy

          4. Weary Traveler

            Life is harder than need be thanks to those who regard themselves as our betters, and are so bothered by seeing their lessors = us, have any joy or prosperity in life, so they use all their time and resources to make sure it doesn’t happen.

            They’re all such talentless losers who don’t deserve to be where they are. Working the drive-thru at Burger King is too good for them.

            Took my dad over 35 years of commuting over the hill every day on HWY 17 before landing the job that he retired from, which was as if it was tailored for him. That’s getting made harder and harder these days. The goalposts have been moved way too much and too fast.

            Agreed – one of the multitude reasons I don’t continue to live in California. As I tell my friends in Kentucky – California is a beautiful state filled with a lot of very ugly people

          6. Weary Traveler

            And a lot of those ugly people are migrating elsewhere as well.

            At best, you might temporarily escape. Just look at what they did to Nevada and Arizona.

            I wouldn’t say all parts of Cali are beautiful though. Some of it is pretty damn ugly. The whole Central Valley from Redding to Bakersfield, and the low deserts of Southern California come to mind. There are parts of the state that resemble what most people think when they conjure up the worst images of places like Oklahoma or Kansas, or the more dangerous parts of Mexico should you wander off the resorts. And more than some people might think.

            The depressing part is that the major cities aren’t much better. They would be much better if not for the politicians that installed themselves.

            San Francisco used to be a world class city at one point. Sickens me to see what was done to it. Same with Oakland. If they had a law and order city council and mayor, that would be one of the best places in the state to live, if not the country.

            Downtown Oakland actually has some amazing old architecture. It’s just too bad so much of it is surrounded by garbage.

          7. Chief Mac

            Oakland used to have the very best used bookstore. Went there many times. Spent time in San Francisco when I was stationed at the Presidio of San Francisco in 1978-79

            Am going to tell you a story from my past. After living in Monterey for 3 most years while I was stationed at Country Club (our nickname for the Defense Language Institute, Foreign Language Center, Presidio of Monterey, where I had to shave, get a hair cut and wear our uniforms exactly one day a year I got a new assignment. There were some that hated the place, it wasn’t GI enough for them and we told them Planet Ord (Ft Ord which really was another world) was just across the bay and they could transfer. I was sent to Flight School at Mother Rucker (Ft Rucker). Here I went through boot camp again, but instead of 8 weeks it was 52 weeks.

            South Eastern Alabama is not exactly Eden. Cockroaches, chiggers, ticks, fire ants, etc. Freezing cold in the winter where my hands frozen to the pavement while doing push ups to Category 5 weather with temps over 90 degrees and over 90 percent humidity. And instead of Drill Sergeants we had Tac Officers (Chief Warrant Officers) screaming at us all the time. Did I say this place was unpleasant? I should have, especially after the soft living at Country Club. Mother Rucker was one mean bitch.

            Well I had a friend there named Rich. He was a nice guy always smiling and just getting along with everybody. One day I was really down, crashed my bird and failed a check ride. It looked like I might be booted out of flight school, so I would say I was depressed. There Rich was smiling like always so I said to him “Rich don’t you know how much this place really sucks?” He then told me the most profound thing I ever heard and I have lived by it ever since. He told me “You can be miserable in paradise”. I then realized he was correct, I saw it at Country Club. I controlled how I felt and nobody, no environment could change that fact.

            Later in life I moved to Ohio to be with the person I would marry. My mother told me I would hate Ohio because she had hated Illinois when she was there to go to IIT. Well I didn’t hate it because I looked for the good instead. That has I have gotten through life. Look for the positive and you will find, look for the negative and your will find that too. It really is your choice, choose wisely.

          8. Weary Traveler

            There is something to be said about making the best of it. Like today, as I was sitting out by the estuary enjoying the cold breeze while knowing most other places not too far away feel like ovens, and will soon feel like Turkish saunas. And at least I am not in those awful places. Now, granted, it would have been impossible for me to do that if today were like Thursday when it was in the 80s here.

            There is that. Then, OTOH, I also don’t ever want “making the best of a bad situation” to ever be mistaken as an endorsement, which has happened more than once.

            From Democrats to missionaries, among others, and other things in life, the word “no” seems to be the most difficult word in the English language for some to comprehend. Amazing since it has only two little letters in it.

            Our stories are a bit different. I am sure I have made some mistakes, and there are somethings I took for granted in life. But the punishment is far exceeding the crime here. It is about place on one side, but it also is a sense of community and belonging I miss, and has been replaced with what I can only call “stupid situations.”

    New – US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy landed in Israel and visited the Western Wall.

    peaker of the US House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy called Israel “a blessed nation” in Jerusalem on Sunday, a day before he was set to address the Knesset.

    “Israel you are a blessed nation,” McCarthy wrote in the Western Wall visitors’ book after landing at Ben Gurion Airport, adding: “Our shared values unite a bond that will never break.”

    The California Republican is leading a bipartisan group of 20 US congressmen, who joined Western Wall Rabbi Shmuel Rabinovitch in prayer at the Kotel.

    McCarthy, who will become the second US House speaker to address the Knesset plenum, was greeted earlier Sunday at Ben Gurion Airport by his Israeli counterpart Amir Ohana of the Likud party.

    Okay so, being that I missed my walk today (it’s thundering and lightning today and pouring for three and a half days), I decided to answer a pollster’s questions about how I feel about Marxist Murphy, his fellow crooks (I mean members of the NJ legislature), etc.

    The questions then were about Trump.
    Would I still support him even though he is under criminal investigation and was indicted?
    (HECK YES!)

    Then the questions were about my gender.
    How would I describe myself, etc.
    I was amazed that I wasn’t asked if I was always a woman and identified as such.

    I WAS asked how closely related I felt to being a woman.
    Because every woman has testosterone in her body.

    I made it crystal clear that I am a FEMALE.
    I ALWAYS was, am, and will be a female.

    At one point, the pollster started laughing.
    I became very sarcastic (and apparently very comical).

    The world we live in!
    Sigh. 😞😔😞😔

    THIS is why the angels didn’t want Hashem to create Man.
    They saw that Man has the ability to destroy the world.

    #MoshiachRIGHTNOW 🥺🥺🥺

    1. Weary Traveler

      The guy was laughing either because you were the only person that was honest with him, or he himself had a screw or two loose.

      In reality, men have some estrogen in our bodies, as we have both male and female parents, we inherit their DNA. I never felt anything like a woman in my nearly 47 years on this earth. In spite of certain feminine qualities like keeping a nice clean an tidy house, being able to decorate, and being far more driven by the emotional and spiritual aspect of a relationship over the sexual aspect of it.

      When Rabbi Lapin talks about how hook-up culture harms women more than men, and why, I can fully relate to it, and feel the exact same way about it. I could not just “move on” as easily as a lot of other men could. Therefore I can understand it more, and why, than many men are able to.

      Yet, like a normal man, I am very attracted to women. In today’s insane world, I would probably be expected to “identify” as a lesbian. Well, no. And I wouldn’t want to be one either. I actually enjoy being a hetero-mormative man. Even if I am considered the root of all evil in the world. But I consider who is calling me that. Mainly a bunch of sexually frustrated and confused incels.

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        I got the impression that he also thought that those questions were ridiculous.

        However, he told me that I needed to conform with one of the choice of answers, as per the protocol.

        I never felt remotely male, despite the fact that I was a huge tomboy in my youth.

        “…In spite of certain feminine qualities like keeping a nice clean an tidy house, being able to decorate, and being far more driven by the emotional and spiritual aspect of a relationship over the sexual aspect of it.”

        I opine that those are all extremely positive traits.

        “When Rabbi Lapin talks about how hook-up culture harms women more than men, and why, I can fully relate to it, and feel the exact same way about it. I could not just “move on” as easily as a lot of other men could. Therefore I can understand it more, and why, than many men are able to.”

        This is extremely praiseworthy.
        Trust me.

        In fact, all of the traits that you listed that one might consider to be more “female” (I say RUBBISH to that), are terrific! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

        Not allowing lunatics to define you, is as it SHOULD be!

        1. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

          My grandmother was a tomboy, as was my mother, myself and my two daughters. Family of liberated women before it was a thing.

          A couple of centers ago what is considered a tomboy now was not for women. They plowed, seeded and reaped the fields with their husbands.

          1. Weary Traveler

            My mom was also a tomboy.

            She hated dresses and would only wear pants. She told me a story of when she was a teenager, a boy took her out on a date, and he was furious she wore jeans, and said he wasn’t taking her anywhere looking like that. She told him goodbye, and to enjoy the date by himself. LOL

          2. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            All but my youngest daughter like dresses and all sorts of women’s clothes. Special occasions she wears women’s dress pants and a feminine blouse. The rest of the time it’s t-shirts and jeans. She found her husband in the Marines where they all dress the same. 🙂

            The idea that close and activities decide you gender is ridiculous. Especially, when it is children. It’s like I must be really a male because I cut firewood this winter after giving birth to 3 children.

          3. Weary Traveler

            Right? A woman doesn’t have to wear a dress to be feminine and to let us all know she is a woman. And some women just don’t like them, even if they would look great in them to everyone else. I can understand that as there are items of clothing common for men I would never wear because I don’t like them, or the way I would look or feel in them.

          4. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            We walk differently than men. 🙂 We all like comfortable clothes and those the go with what we are doing. What you feel does not change your chromosomes. Not to mention given the suggestion to kids they can is a lie and the drugs cause harm to them. Medicine used to be first do no harm.

          6. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Hello good to see you.

            Nor will trans surgery make a man walk like a woman. Drilling a hole in their pelvis can’t change that. I find the whole thing a very sick science experiment. One of my neighbors was one we found out after she died when her stepson found her medical paperwork. She had a limp and now we know why.

          8. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            She was a horrible step Mom. He said now he knows why they never got along. She had too much testosterone.

          10. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            That info messed with him also. When he turned 18 he walked 15 miles to enlist in the Navy just to get away from her.

          12. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Two weeks after I talked to him in November, he collapsed and died. Broke my heart as he was coming to visit the mother he said he should have had.

          13. Weary Traveler

            That’s awful. There has to be a special place in Hell for people like his stepmom that traumatized him.

          14. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            His Dad was a sweetheart, but had terrible taste in women. His birth mother was no better. He married the trans after 10 days. I knew him since he was 9 years old. He protected my older daughter from school bus bullies.

          24. Sapper 9

            Today tomboys are directed to the transition line when they are fine the way that they are.

          25. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            You should hear my granddaughter’s High school stories. The sad part is many studies have shown 85% confused children adjust by their late teens and early 20’s.

          26. Sapper 9

            A little boy that lives in a neighborhood with only girls to play with can easily be convinced that he wants to be a girl, but, by the teen years he will realize he likes girls in a romantic way.

          27. Weary Traveler

            And that guy will know more about women than his male peers, and be better at talking to them.

          28. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            When children are left alone they do play with both. Young children just want to play. In doing that they form social attachment to both. My son frequently played house with his younger sister and she would play with his cars. They like them earlier but have not realized why yet. They tease girls because they want their attention. Not the type of flirting girls appreciate. They fine tune that later and start to be more protective of girls if they are raised right. My younger daughter hated ballet, but loved karate and marching band where she was a tenor drummer. Band was the last time I saw her legs, her uniform had a kilt. Her older sister is the one that is into the hair, nails and clothes. Still they both have very strong and determined personalities and have no problem speaking their minds.

        2. Weary Traveler

          Those should be positive traits. We got too many losers out there that have to categorize and define everything a certain way.

          I suspect many of those “experts” are like that former coworker John Gillis had that he told us about, whose mail order bride locked him out of his own bedroom.

          These are the people that want us to feel bad about ourselves.

          2. Weary Traveler

            John told a story about a leftist coworker of his that had a mail order bride. The first one rejected the guy, the second one locked him out of his own bedroom and took him for all he was worth. These are the people who hate Trump and are threatened by MAGA.

          3. Proud Conservative Mom

            Losers aren’t strong enough of a description.
            🤦🙄

            Agreed, that these are the ones who hate Trump and feel threatened by MAGA.

            I didn’t know that mail order brides existed anymore.

          4. Weary Traveler

            They still do, unfortunately. As weak beta males do.

            True story; I did an image search on Fat Jerry’s avatar = that loser from W3P who uses the picture of an Asian woman in his profile. The ones without a watermark, like he uses, were linked to such sites that focused on Asian women, but most of them were “escort” sites.

            That says a lot about that freak if you ask me. I confronted him with it, and he ran. I’m surprised he didn’t block me. LOL

  313. Weary Traveler

    Going through this article now, and this bit really jumped out at me…

    We don’t know how to make a zero-growth society work,” conservative tech billionaire Peter Thiel said in an interview for Unherd, in which he claimed that Covid-19 lockdowns resulted from the long-term stagnation of growth and innovation in our society. His argument is that as society has slowly stagnated over the past several decades, we have tacitly abandoned the aspiration to growth, leading to a sort of malaise that has “resulted in something like a societal and cultural lockdown; not just the last two years but in many ways the last 40 or 50.”

    I have noticed this too. Anything of beauty, anything that brings joy, they hate. They seem to want to subject us to as much ugliness as possible. Whether is family, our relationships, financial/career growth, architecture, art, music, movies, etc.. It’s always the ugly and degenerate preplacing the meaningful and beautiful.

    As stated below, the modern definition of “Humanism” is a far cry from the original of how beauty brings one closer to the divine. That meant both the creation and admiration of.

    The way I see it; if these people really do hate life that much, then that is all the more reason they deserve to die, and put out of our misery as well as their own. The greatest service to humanity would be to put the Fauci’s, Klaus Schwab’s and Yuval Harari’s of the world in front of a firing squad.

    Did Lockdowns Signify the “End of Abundance?”

    1. Weary Traveler

      “The Limits to Growth was extremely controversial from the moment it was published. Prominent Western leaders attacked the notion of limits as a dangerous delusion.”

      Bullsh!t. That is one of the biggest lies ever told, mainly by Atheists and control freaks. I point to the discovery of agriculture, and learning how to harvest the land. Without which, humans would have died off long ago from famine had we continued to grow at the pace we did without it.

            We need to protect our own borders and our own nation.

            These countries should have created their own war stocks.

            We have a weak president that has weakened our nation and our military , while he emboldens all of our enemies.

        2. Tony

          I am taking him at face value for the moment. After all, he is fighting a war. But he did start it (with the agreement of the population) without saying how they would pay for it, and gradually made it plain that it would be the Europeans, the Americans, and everyone in sight. Makes sense from his point of view, but a war against Russia is the last thing anyone wants however right it seems. The really strange thing is how badly the Russians have been doing.

          1. Weary Traveler

            There is nothing that even seems right about it. We’re protecting an illegal regime that was installed by our own three letter agencies. The right thing to do would just be to let Putin go in and clean it out himself.

    2. Proud Conservative Mom

      “…sings like Beverly Hills…”
      😂😂😂

      Just read the article.
      Zelensky is a shakedown artist and an extortionist par excellence. 😡😡😡

      AGREED.
      Let him deal with Putin alone.

        1. Weary Traveler

          Our own nation needs a lot of rebuilding.

          Putin can take care of Zelensky, and would. That illegitimate government would be gone, and the people of Ukraine would actually get the government they elected. Win-win. The only losers would be the Brandon crime family and the three letter agencies. And to Hell with them.

    3. Sapper 9

      He has lots of dirt on the US swamp creatures; we will be paying until the conclusion of this war and to rebuild it better than it ever was, while our own nation crumbles.

      1. Weary Traveler

        They don’t ever want this war to end for that reason. They would rather our nation crumble, or get nuked off the planet, then ever have their dirt come to light.

        1. Chief Mac

          Isn’t it. He understood how to use the largest economy in the world to affect change

          1. Weary Traveler

            Which goes to show that none of our politicians wanted positive change. Just to enrich themselves off of death and suffering.

    I’m so very sick and tired of the insanity of people clamoring for the debt ceiling to be raised.

    It’s always the same “crisis.”

    STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY LIKE IT GROWS ON TREES.

    😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

    1. Weary Traveler

      I’m with you. I’m so sick and tired of year after year the same excuses for the same problems THEY CREATED!!

      They get richer, while we all get poorer. All for “the greater good” of course. It’s sickening. Just like all the speeches about “in these difficult/challenging times” by the ones who made things so difficult. But we are always the ones who have to “suck it up.” LIKE HELL!!!!!!

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        Indeed they created it.

        What infuriates me in addition, is the fact that almost all of them aren’t wealthy before they go to Congress.
        As a result of the only “legal” form of insider trading, they become millionaires.

        The debt should be hung around the neck of everyone complicit.
        Moreover, their own ill earned gains should be confiscated.

        1. Weary Traveler

          Taking away their ill gotten gains, and leaving them with nothing, would be one form of reparations I would support. They owe us so much money.

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            I usually don’t support wealth redistribution.

            That being said, these creeps should be made to live in a tent with everything else confiscated.

            They owe us an insane amount of money.

          2. Weary Traveler

            Yes, I am only for redistributing all of their stolen wealth.

            I would love to force them to live n tents, but not in our cities because I want those cleaned up. I would just seal off a place in the low deserts of Southern California, and send them there.

          4. Weary Traveler

            I would suggest sending them all to Slab City, down by the Salton Sea = a giant homeless encampment in the Southern California low desert.

      Funny how Putin is more truthful than most of our own politicians, on either side of the isle.

      Sad I would much rather live under Putin right now, than 95% our own politicians.

      I never thought I would live to see the day when Russia became more like America, while America became more like the former Soviet Union.

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        “Funny how Putin is more truthful than most of our own politicians, on either side of the isle.”

        Incredible isn’t it?! 🧐🧐🧐

        “Sad I would much rather live under Putin right now, than 95% our own politicians.”

        Understood.

        “I never thought I would live to see the day when Russia became more like America, while America became more like the former Soviet Union.”

        MEGA DITTOS.
        I never would have believed it.

        One step further, if you would have described to me the state this country would be in thirty years ago, I never would have thought it possible.

        1. Weary Traveler

          Sometimes when I think about the past, and how I saw the future then compared to now, it doesn’t feel very good and it causes me to entertain thoughts I don’t want to entertain.

          At least thoughts I know that don’t make Hashem happy because He created all of us with good intent.

          I only hope that very soon, we see an end to the evil, and I can make sense of my own time here on this earth.

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            AMEN AND AMEN to your closing statement.

            I’m praying that the end of all evil occurs ASAP.

          2. Weary Traveler

            That’s why I had to edit it a few times, because I don’t want you becoming too upset. You got more than enough going on as is without having to deal with anyone else’s problems.

            But it is nice knowing people like you are out there. Just wish I would encounter more of them.

            That Sodom and Gomorrah nonsense is just around the corner, and all the freaks will be heading across the Bay Bridge soon. Funny how DeSantis got them to cancel their own parades in Florida with a simple ultimatum = either no nudity, or no one under 18 is allowed to attend.

            If they really weren’t pedophiles intent on grooming children, they would have been more than fine with those terms as they are perfectly reasonable.

            I remember when bringing a minor just in to a bar, even if escorted by a parent or legal guardian wasn’t allowed, and so much so, that had the establishment not turned them away, they would be in danger of losing their liquor license, which is their lifeblood.

          4. Weary Traveler

            That means a lot. It’s the people like you out there that remind me that I am not in Hell.

            I’m worried too. I don’t see any exits yet.

            Inside of my mind
            I run through the fields
            I run through the woods
            I run for my life
            Inside of my mind
            I run for my life
            I run through the years

            Again, I appreciate you. If there were more like you in the world we wouldn’t be in this mess.

            Either way, things can’t go on as they are. Either it all comes down and we begin a new human renaissance, or it all goes full global communism. In which case, people like me will get killed by the jack booted thugs for not being good little sheep. The way in which I have been punished for refusing to be a lab rat, which isn’t even a crime, is beyond evil.

            I would rather the former scenario = a new human renaissance, because I would really hate to join the ranks of the countless billions over human history whose lives were wasted for no good reason by a select delusional and evil few that think they are gods, with the help of their stupid sheeple.

            Then all I would need to worry about is finding a good support group to deal with the PTSD from it all as I am so beyond disgusted to have witnessed and experienced any of it.

      That happens in all elections and is usually caught. 2020 with all the mail in ballots and ballot harvesting this does not surprise me. Too many ballots to check and be accurate. People were videoed paying homeless to fill out ballots for certain candidates.

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        I wasn’t surprised either, for precisely the reason you described.

        Unless the fraud and cheating is prevented, our votes will never count again.

        Mail in ballots have got to go.
        NOW.

        That’s the first thing that needs to happen.

        1. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

          I would put ballot harvesting first. Limited mails to absolute necessity. No more drop boxes from Zuckerberg or his picked staffing for polls. All poll workers should be trained by the counties. I have been an election worker and the things they let fly in 2020 were outrageous.

          2. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

            Could not do it last election. I had a litter of kittens and a very hungry Momma cat. It is a 12 hour day.

            You get to see people in the community you have not seen in awhile. Plus you can’t have political arguments. 🙂

    BREAKING: Starting today, home borrowers with good credit above 720 will get socked with thousands more in borrowing costs thanks to Biden’s new race-based lending penalty to compensate for higher risk of cutting fees for poor-credit borrowers, all to boost minority homeownership.

    1. Weary Traveler

      There goes the housing market. As if home ownership isn’t hard enough for most outside of the ultra wealthy to attain.

      Every time I think about it, I want to utter every dirty word from the NYC Transit system multiple times each.

        1. Weary Traveler

          And all this time they kept telling us that we are the failures.

          I am not a violent person, believe it or not. But they sure bring out my violent tendencies and urges.

          4. Weary Traveler

            It’s perfectly possible. People need to learn to get mad and stop acting like battered wives.

          6. Weary Traveler

            Step one would be to audit the Federal Reserve, and put the money back on the Gold standard, and shut the printing press off. From there we would be able to abolish income taxes, and stop the money laundering.

            We would be able to fund infrastructure just through the purchasing of goods.

      Another move to destroy the middle class that worked hard to get there.

        1. Eileen Mother of Leopard Cats

          Good evening. The party that wants to monitor speech to control the citizens needs to have them dependent on government handouts for more control of their lives.

    NEW: Per multiple CBP sources, Border Patrol had over 20,000 illegal aliens in federal custody earlier today, as encounters continue to skyrocket across the southern border, hovering between 7,000-8,000 per day in recent days, not counting gotaways. Several sectors going over capacity.

      Funny how so many politicians and “world leaders” — gag me with a spoon because they are anything but leaders since true leaders are servants, i.e., Moses — remind me so much of the abusive stepfather in the movie, This Boy’s Life, played by Robert Di Nero, who apparently was playing himself here given his extreme TDS.

      Unbelievably, we got this far without any funny business. It wouldn’t surprise me if we had to make a new page after only 20 comments.

        Seems things are improving. Some people have their vote-count restored from zero to what it should be..

        1. Weary Traveler

          I noticed mine seem to be back. And I never complained about it, but I got them back. Interesting.

        They would die faster, and save the tax payers more money if they would just hang themselves with their own bed sheets on the first night in.

      2. Chief Mac

        Obviously he wasn’t on a hunger strike the entire time. Nobody can survive in 1/4 that time without food

    1. Proud Conservative Mom

      Good morning Chief.
      I’m sorry for your loss.

      It is indeed a pity that Lori Lightfoot is still breathing, along with many other evil cretin.

      That being said, I know that you are cognizant that Hashem NEVER EVER makes mistakes.

    1. Proud Conservative Mom

      Now they’re blaming Israel for incarcerating a terrorist.
      I didn’t even blink.

      Israel is always the oppressor and occupier.

      Why the heck is Netanyahu afraid to bomb more than empty buildings and spaces?

        No matter how insane life gets, it is important to schedule in one day of normal hours.

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          Most definitely!
          That’s very critical, and he tries to do that as much as possible.

          We’re additionally blessed because of Shabbos.
          I honestly don’t know what I would do without Shabbos.
          BH, it’s an eternal gift and covenant.
          🙏💞💞💞

          2. Proud Conservative Mom

            I couldn’t agree more.

            The ability to unplug and spend 25 1/2 hours with Hashem, family, and friends is PRICELESS.
            ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

            Moreover, Shabbos is the source of blessing.

      Hopefully they will hit something meaningful. The U.N. the BBC and Amnesty have their write-ups ready to print.

      1. Tony

        Correct in what you say!
        I can only guess, but I am not sure that it would be fair for her to be fired. She would be carrying the can for them all.
        The whole damn lot of them are crawling with anti-semitism. It is the paper itsself which needs attacking, and this is happening.
        Anti-semitism is the flavour of the month just now, and there is a lot of it about!

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          Very well stated.
          I concur absolutely with one caveat.

          Unfortunately and tragically antisemitism is always in vogue.
          It’s not just the flavour of the month.
          These evil people aren’t original.

          It won’t ever end until Moshiach comes.

    🚨Now – The military arm of the Islamic Jihad publishes a threatening video with the time associated 21:00 and under the title “We haven’t started yet.”

      O.M.G.!! I watched it on the Raw And Unfiltered News WhatsApp channel. 🙄🙄🙄🙊

      You truly have to be a Marxist and a serial liar to be a part of the DemonRAT Party.
