The first and biggest FFWN story this week was Tessa’s “The Great Reset for Dummies.” Excerpts:
“The Great Reset is a massively funded, desperately ambitious, internationally coordinated project led by some of the biggest multinational corporations and financial players on the planet and carried out by cooperating state bodies and NGOs…The mathematical reason for the Great Reset is that thanks to technology, the planet has gotten small, and the infinite expansion economic model is bust—but obviously, the super wealthy want to continue staying super wealthy, and so they need a miracle, another bubble, plus a surgically precise system for managing what they perceive as ‘their limited resources.’ Thus, they desperately want a bubble providing new growth out of thin air—literally—while simultaneously they seek to tighten the peasants’ belts, an effort that starts with ‘behavioral modification,’ a.k.a. resetting the western peasants’ sense of entitlement to high life standards and liberties (see awful ‘privilege’).
“Thus, the practical aim of the Great Reset is to fundamentally restructure the world’s economy and geopolitical relations based on two assumptions: one, that every element of nature and every life form is a part of the global inventory (managed by the allegedly benevolent state, which, in turn, is owned by several suddenly benevolent wealthy people, via technology)—and two, that all inventory needs to be strictly accounted for: be registered in a central database, be readable by a scanner and easily ID’ed, and be managed by AI, using the latest ‘science.’ The goal is to count and then efficiently manage and control all resources, including people, on an unprecedented scale, with unprecedented digital anxiety and precision—all while the masters keep indulging, enjoying vast patches of conserved nature, free of unnecessary sovereign peasants and their unpredictability. The king’s world feels far more predictable and relaxed when the chaos of human subjectivity is contained for good.”

He writes that COVID is “the instrument of an invisible enemy, created by the deep dark state, the all controlling oligarchs, the psychopaths who want absolute control over people, over our health systems, our food supplies, the sickos who are behind the World Economic Forum (WEF) and their new book – their guideline to the new future, the New Normal, ‘Covid-19- The Great Reset’ – that these people must now be overcome, before they complete their agenda.” Amen, Peter!

VT: Rhodes is a Yale Law grad and DC insider, former Ron Paul staffer who had a “right wing moment” about a decade ago. He is former US Army, no listed combat experience, honorable discharge after an eye injury.
Oath Keepers militia leader Stewart Rhodes said members of his militia will be at polling locations on Election Day to “protect” Trump voters during an appearance on far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ program.
After making that claim, Rhodes made a number of unhinged statements, including saying Oath Keepers would follow directives from President Donald Trump to take members of the “deep state” into custody and “do what we have to do,” that Trump should invoke the Insurrection Act before the election, that Oath Keepers will “be in range” of Washington D.C., to stop a “Benghazi-style” attack on the White House on election night, and that a war will have to be fought against Democrats on the West Coast who are “bought” by the Chinese government. Rhodes also hyped the possibility of a second civil war where his “battle-hardened” supporters kill the “street soldiers” and “command and control” of “the radical left.” He later claimed the United States is already in a civil war because “you have sitting politicians who are part of the enemy’s ranks.”
Disturbingly, Rhodes telegraphed how he will interpret election results, saying that he would consider a win by Democratic nominee Joe Biden illegitimate and evidence the election had been stolen, presaging how he and his militia might react to that outcome.

Rhodes said his group is “concerned about a Benghazi-style attack” on election night against the White House and that some of his “best men” will be “posted outside of D.C.” and “within range.” He said he does not trust the military because a “stand down order” could be issued that allows the attack to happen. Rhodes said such an attack could result in “the antifa flag or communist flag flying over the White House.”

veteranstoday--2020-11-01--The Last Seal of the Apocalypse

The Last Seal of the Apocalypse

The United States is utopia embodied .
You should not judge their crisis in the same way as we judge ours – the crisis of the old European countries .
We have a crisis of historical ideals caused by the impossibility of realizing them .
They have a crisis of a realized utopia as a consequence of its duration and continuity .
The idyllic conviction of Americans that they are the center of the world , a higher power and an absolute role model is not such a delusion .
It is based not so much on technological resources and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the existence of an embodied utopia – a society that , with what it may seem unbearable innocence , is based on the idea that it has achieved everything that others only dreamed of : justice , abundance , rights , wealth , freedom ; America knows it , it believes it , and in the end , others also believe it .
The French postmodernists J. Baudrillard , J. Derrida , J. Lyotard and J. Deleuze warned the world about the dangers of the impending crisis of the postmodern world , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ greatest success in the implementation of postmodern principles , did not hear them .
The quiet voices of philosophers have been drowned out by fanfare of tremendous successes in the creation of a global village entirely under US control , and by the jubilant voices of false philosophers such as Fukuyama and false geopoliticians like Brzezinski .
Jean Baudrillard wrote about the phenomenon of implosion .
Implosion is a crisis state of an object in which mutation processes are taking place , preparing an explosion directed inward .
We are still seeing small @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and these are the first detonators of the big bang and annihilation .
The huge hyperreal bubble of the American empire , inflated to incredible proportions , has reached its critical limit and even according to the most optimistic expectations , if they are possible at all , a big bang can not be avoided .
The rejection of the natural laws of nature in the United States is particularly widespread and destructive .
Gender diversity , genetic mutations in agriculture , rejection of natural forces to heal ( complete transition to chemistry @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aggressive forms , forests that no one ever cares about , rivers and lakes , on the banks of which you will not see walking people , roads that no one walks on foot for a long time , people bloated to the size of Goliath by hormones in food , food that is more poison than medicine .
Communication has long been turned into a simulation , since there is no sincerity , there is no desire to open the soul , there is a fear of frankness .
If in other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to overcome stress and life tragedies , here a person in mental anguish is doomed to a desert of loneliness in the fog of tranquilizers .
In my first year in America , I heard from my husband that his colleague ’ s wife had committed suicide .
I asked how old she was and how she passed away .
At 50 , she threw herself under a train .
Almost all the achievements of American civilization have turned into slow killers of itself due to implosive mutation .
If we talk about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ made it possible to hold captive the charm of millions and millions of those suffering a better life and associate the image of paradise with America , it melted long ago , the process began with the Vietnam War and reached its climax today , when the peoples of the world have already ceased to care what is going on there in America , going about their business and only sometimes amazed , looking at the leapfrog events in American cities .
The simulation of reality was most vividly manifested during the current @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political strategists and the media , a hyperreal space was created – the space of simulations .
Both Trump and Biden are more vivid , viable , and more authentic simulators than their originals .
But the tragedy is that the modern world , in which the winner will have to act , is far from an artificially created hyperreal space .
Tragedy for America , but salvation for the world .
The survival instinct inherent in any living organism has practically been killed by the Americans by a long policy of tolerance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ books , tolerance is suppression of the body ’ s ability to fight against foreign elements that have entered it .
Under the guise of a struggle for democratic values , a tough policy of tolerance killed the society ’ s ability to fight and reject what brought death to society .
The generation of simulacra in politics – political correctness , killed the ability of society to criticize and reject the most dangerous ideas and phenomena for public health .
The image of a country of great dreams and universal prosperity , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gigantic propaganda machine , has become the greatest deception that has poisoned the minds of millions around the world , but above all the Americans themselves .
Their consciousness is still in sweet captivity and this captivity turned out to be stronger than the survival instinct .
Not a single politician who has entered the political arena in the United States in recent years has dared to honestly call the state of American society a coma .
Passive , inert , agonizing state , in which there is not even a glimpse of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ time there is a stormy pre-election campaign , and although the voter is deprived of real choice , he is emotionally involved in the simulation machine .
But whoever wins this race , will this sweet poison of simulated welfare disappear ?
The most catastrophic changes in the consciousness of American society have occurred in the past thirty years .
Fanfare of the victory over the USSR ( the Evil Empire , as Reagan called this country ) intoxicated and turned their heads to those who had long dreamed of global control of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ huge country went on under the simulacrum of assistance to democratic changes in Russia , the same process went on and still continues in all countries of the post-Soviet space .
Instead of democracy came the power of puppets , instead of the promised abundance of liberal capitalism – poverty and extinction for the majority of the population .
In the process of plundering Russia , a criminal alliance of the criminal “ new Russians ” with the Wall Street robbers rapidly developed , and a careful outlook can even today see the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Russians , who during the perestroika period believed that America wished us well and was ready to help us enter the brotherhood of developed countries , went through “ shock therapy ” and became sober after losing their illusions .
Neither Putin nor Lavrov has any need to interfere in the elections or in the political life of America in general , the main conclusions about what happened to America and what awaits it were made by Vladimir Putin in Munich in 2007 .
Globalization , which promised to turn the world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ technology will turn human life into a paradise on Earth , in fact turned out to be only a simulacrum , behind which the predatory plans of the more greedy than ever owners of corporations were hidden .
These plans and strategies took away from America the basis of real life for most ordinary men and women – plants and factories , small businesses that produce goods , not services .
Millions of people have lost the foundation for a normal life – a job that does not depend on fluctuations in stock @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all major spheres of the economy has created the foundation for simulation – capital , the labor process itself , education , culture .
What can a teacher who communicates with a dozen children using Zoom give children ?
Is it possible to replace live communication with the teacher and classmates ?
The process of childbirth over the phone became the apogee of the simulation of progress in medicine .
What , if not a simulation , the provision of an ambulance in emergency departments in the United States , when the patient @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and then he will be asked questions : “ Would you like to invite a priest ?
” , “ Have you ever had time for thoughts of suicide ?
” and a huge list of other questions that are absolutely unimportant at the moment when the patient writhes in pain and longs for help and sometimes the effort to endure goes on for minutes .
The simulation of the world ’ s most powerful and technologically-equipped health-care system is particularly evident during the months of critical growth in Corona-Virus patients .
Medical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ patients instead of hospital wards , wealthy leaders of the best hospitals in New York , who abandoned their teams in the midst of the tragedy and went to rest in their luxurious villas in Florida , despair and death of those who were not admitted to hospitals due to for lack of insurance – all this is the payback for simulating well-being .
Culture in its true form is a process of filling Being with meanings .
But the simulation of culture is an orgy of naked bodies on the screen and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the cinema or theater no longer causes a surge of feelings in anyone , everyone wants more frankness and more perversions with general tolerance .
And no one notices that Hollywood is not a factory of stars any more , but the main producer of opium for the people .
In the 19th century , Britain put millions of Chinese people on opium , and in the 21st century , Hollywood gradually switched from soft drugs to increasingly hard drugs , simulating the introduction of the American Dream and American values into families @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Billions of people have become simply unnecessary for those who plan to further advance the plans of the globalists .
To help them , concerned about the overpopulation of the planet , comes science and simulation .
The only daredevil who questioned the need to foster gender diversity and expressed confidence that women need a responsible and strong man was brutally persecuted by angry feminists and now Professor Peterson is practically knocked out of the battlefield .
Mutations of the social organism occur with the relentlessness of cancer proliferation .
For many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the frantic race of life , but today the stadiums are empty , matches can only be watched on TV .
This is how an entire ritual part of American life dies imperceptibly – a trip with your son or friends to a match of your favorite team , the euphoria of joint empathy for victory or bitterness of defeat , instead of a living element of feelings – a simuclear of the once most important part of life .
No more any perfect TV can replace the real life of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ring .
The public has yet to realize what happened to him during the covid-19 pandemic .

For VT
The United States is utopia embodied. You should not judge their crisis in the same way as we judge ours – the crisis of the old European countries. We have a crisis of historical ideals caused by the impossibility of realizing them. They have a crisis of a realized utopia as a consequence of its duration and continuity.
The idyllic conviction of Americans that they are the center of the world, a higher power and an absolute role model is not such a delusion.
It is based not so much on technological resources and military forces as on a miraculous belief in the existence of an embodied utopia – a society that, with what it may seem unbearable innocence, is based on the idea that it has achieved everything that others only dreamed of: justice, abundance, rights, wealth, freedom; America knows it, it believes it, and in the end, others also believe it.
J. Baudrillard. “America”.
The French postmodernists J. Baudrillard, J. Derrida, J. Lyotard and J. Deleuze warned the world about the dangers of the impending crisis of the postmodern world, but the country, which achieved the greatest success in the implementation of postmodern principles, did not hear them.
The quiet voices of philosophers have been drowned out by fanfare of tremendous successes in the creation of a global village entirely under US control, and by the jubilant voices of false philosophers such as Fukuyama and false geopoliticians like Brzezinski. Jean Baudrillard wrote about the phenomenon of implosion. Implosion is a crisis state of an object in which mutation processes are taking place, preparing an explosion directed inward. We are still seeing small explosions all around in American society, and these are the first detonators of the big bang and annihilation.
The huge hyperreal bubble of the American empire, inflated to incredible proportions, has reached its critical limit and even according to the most optimistic expectations, if they are possible at all, a big bang cannot be avoided.
The rejection of the natural laws of nature in the United States is particularly widespread and destructive.
Gender diversity, genetic mutations in agriculture, rejection of natural forces to heal (complete transition to chemistry or surgery), transhumanism in increasingly aggressive forms, forests that no one ever cares about, rivers and lakes, on the banks of which you will not see walking people, roads that no one walks on foot for a long time, people bloated to the size of Goliath by hormones in food, food that is more poison than medicine.
Communication has long been turned into a simulation, since there is no sincerity, there is no desire to open the soul, there is a fear of frankness. If in other societies it is spiritual communication that helps to overcome stress and life tragedies, here a person in mental anguish is doomed to a desert of loneliness in the fog of tranquilizers. In my first year in America, I heard from my husband that his colleague’s wife had committed suicide. I asked how old she was and how she passed away. At 50, she threw herself under a train.
Almost all the achievements of American civilization have turned into slow killers of itself due to implosive mutation.
If we talk about America’s soft power, which made it possible to hold captive the charm of millions and millions of those suffering a better life and associate the image of paradise with America, it melted long ago, the process began with the Vietnam War and reached its climax today, when the peoples of the world have already ceased to care what is going on there in America, going about their business and only sometimes amazed, looking at the leapfrog events in American cities.
The simulation of reality was most vividly manifested during the current election campaign. Through the efforts of political strategists and the media, a hyperreal space was created – the space of simulations. Both Trump and Biden are more vivid, viable, and more authentic simulators than their originals. But the tragedy is that the modern world, in which the winner will have to act, is far from an artificially created hyperreal space. Tragedy for America, but salvation for the world.
The survival instinct inherent in any living organism has practically been killed by the Americans by a long policy of tolerance. If you look in medical reference books, tolerance is suppression of the body’s ability to fight against foreign elements that have entered it. Under the guise of a struggle for democratic values, a tough policy of tolerance killed the society’s ability to fight and reject what brought death to society. The generation of simulacra in politics – political correctness, killed the ability of society to criticize and reject the most dangerous ideas and phenomena for public health.
The image of a country of great dreams and universal prosperity, created by all the forces of a gigantic propaganda machine, has become the greatest deception that has poisoned the minds of millions around the world, but above all the Americans themselves. Their consciousness is still in sweet captivity and this captivity turned out to be stronger than the survival instinct.
Not a single politician who has entered the political arena in the United States in recent years has dared to honestly call the state of American society a coma. Passive, inert, agonizing state, in which there is not even a glimpse of living thought, but at the same time there is a stormy pre-election campaign, and although the voter is deprived of real choice, he is emotionally involved in the simulation machine. But whoever wins this race, will this sweet poison of simulated welfare disappear?
The most catastrophic changes in the consciousness of American society have occurred in the past thirty years. Fanfare of the victory over the USSR (the Evil Empire, as Reagan called this country) intoxicated and turned their heads to those who had long dreamed of global control of the world. The plundering of a huge country went on under the simulacrum of assistance to democratic changes in Russia, the same process went on and still continues in all countries of the post-Soviet space.
Instead of democracy came the power of puppets, instead of the promised abundance of liberal capitalism – poverty and extinction for the majority of the population. In the process of plundering Russia, a criminal alliance of the criminal “new Russians” with the Wall Street robbers rapidly developed, and a careful outlook can even today see the legacy of this alliance.
Most of the Russians, who during the perestroika period believed that America wished us well and was ready to help us enter the brotherhood of developed countries, went through “shock therapy” and became sober after losing their illusions. Neither Putin nor Lavrov has any need to interfere in the elections or in the political life of America in general, the main conclusions about what happened to America and what awaits it were made by Vladimir Putin in Munich in 2007.
Globalization, which promised to turn the world into a single peaceful oasis, where technology will turn human life into a paradise on Earth, in fact turned out to be only a simulacrum, behind which the predatory plans of the more greedy than ever owners of corporations were hidden.
These plans and strategies took away from America the basis of real life for most ordinary men and women – plants and factories, small businesses that produce goods, not services.
Millions of people have lost the foundation for a normal life – a job that does not depend on fluctuations in stock prices and global trends.
Digitalization in all major spheres of the economy has created the foundation for simulation – capital, the labor process itself, education, culture.
What can a teacher who communicates with a dozen children using Zoom give children? Is it possible to replace live communication with the teacher and classmates?
The process of childbirth over the phone became the apogee of the simulation of progress in medicine. What, if not a simulation, the provision of an ambulance in emergency departments in the United States, when the patient waits 4 hours until his turn comes and then he will be asked questions: “Would you like to invite a priest?”, “Have you ever had time for thoughts of suicide? ” and a huge list of other questions that are absolutely unimportant at the moment when the patient writhes in pain and longs for help and sometimes the effort to endure goes on for minutes.
The simulation of the world’s most powerful and technologically-equipped health-care system is particularly evident during the months of critical growth in Corona-Virus patients. Medical staff in garbage bags, tents for patients instead of hospital wards, wealthy leaders of the best hospitals in New York, who abandoned their teams in the midst of the tragedy and went to rest in their luxurious villas in Florida, despair and death of those who were not admitted to hospitals due to for lack of insurance – all this is the payback for simulating well-being.
Culture in its true form is a process of filling Being with meanings. But the simulation of culture is an orgy of naked bodies on the screen and on the stage, ordinary sex in the cinema or theater no longer causes a surge of feelings in anyone, everyone wants more frankness and more perversions with general tolerance.
And no one notices that Hollywood is not a factory of stars any more, but the main producer of opium for the people.
In the 19th century, Britain put millions of Chinese people on opium, and in the 21st century, Hollywood gradually switched from soft drugs to increasingly hard drugs, simulating the introduction of the American Dream and American values into families in America and throughout the accessible world.
Billions of people have become simply unnecessary for those who plan to further advance the plans of the globalists. To help them, concerned about the overpopulation of the planet, comes science and simulation. The only daredevil who questioned the need to foster gender diversity and expressed confidence that women need a responsible and strong man was brutally persecuted by angry feminists and now Professor Peterson is practically knocked out of the battlefield.
Mutations of the social organism occur with the relentlessness of cancer proliferation. For many American families, sports were an outlet from the frantic race of life, but today the stadiums are empty, matches can only be watched on TV.
This is how an entire ritual part of American life dies imperceptibly – a trip with your son or friends to a match of your favorite team, the euphoria of joint empathy for victory or bitterness of defeat, instead of a living element of feelings – a simuclear of the once most important part of life. No more any perfect TV can replace the real life of a fan in the stadium or around the ring. The public has yet to realize what happened to him during the covid-19 pandemic.
Once the competition between the two parties was the real engine of the political process, but now this competition has turned into a farce. How can contenders for power compete if they are similar to each other as twin brothers? For the public, they masterfully play political battles, but if you look at the essence of these battles, they do not decide anything. The solution of the main problems of the country, the treatment of its terrible diseases are not the priority of politicians-simulators. This is the root of the American tragedy today.
Jean Baudrillard, who visited America, felt the madness of New York back in 1986, today he could say the same words about the whole country America on the eve of the 2020 elections:
“In New York, madmen are free. Put out on the streets, they’re not all that different from the punks, junk, junkies, alcoholics, beggars who fill it. It is unclear why a city, just as mad, would suddenly keep its madmen locked up, why should he deprive the movement of these samples of madness, if it, in one form or another, has already captured the entire city. “
I think that any American who wants to get out of this madness alive has to have an important thought: I don’t know how I’m going to win. I just know I’m not going to lose. ” And this has nothing to do with the outcome of the elections.

BILLINGS, Mont. — It happened so fast, Joey Traywick missed it.
“I’ve been doing this for a long time” he said. “I know how much time I have.”
But not this time. Traywick, a 48-year-old registered nurse, had misjudged how acute his patient’s illness was. By the time he returned to her room, she was gone.
She had died alone.
“And I thought, ‘I’m never going to let that happen again,’” Traywick said, choking back tears. “It snuck up on me, and it surprised me because it’s so relentless. … I (no longer) miss it. If I have to stay late after working, if it means doing it on my day off. They’re not going to pass alone on my unit. Again. None of them.”
Since then, Traywick said he’s personally held hands with 23 patients who have died.
“I never thought it would happen here,” he said. “I never thought we would be anywhere close to where we are now. … I’m a good nurse — and the nurses I work with are good nurses — but we are broken.”

veteranstoday--2020-10-31--‘That Crazy Man Will Kill Us All,’ Today’s unreported News, an Intel Drop

VT : An introduction to what is an Intel Drop I began working elections in 1956 .
We had moved from Bryden Street in Detroit to Redford Township where I lived on a gravel road in a semi-rural area of small homes .
It was 1955 , I was 6 .
By the time Adlai Stevenson ran against pitful mob tool Eisenhower ( J. Edgar Hoover ran him ) , my dad had begun working with the local Democratic Party , part of his work with the UAW .
He worked at the Ford transmission plant in Plymouth , Michigan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Redford Township Democrat to one square mile , 875 homes at that time .
Small paper but this would , by today ’ s standards , be considered the world ’ s largest paper route .
I got $ 1 .
This money went into my fund for Christmas presents .
The route took 12 hours and I did it alone .
This is how things were then .
Today it would be a sign of character , perhaps ‘ fake character.
’ Then it was a dollar when dollars didn ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , not where I came from .
My mother , who grew up in a mining camp outside Hazard , Kentucky always said , “ movies were only a nickel but nobody had a nickel.
” I keep folks from that time around VT. Mike Chester was a childhood friend , Ralph Eckard was my squad leader in Vietnam , others as well .
There were major socioeconomic differences then as now but not like now .
I would like to say I don ’ t know how we got here , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ insane assholes but they were always there .
Just read Steinbeck .
During the 20s , the Rothschilds , through their stepchildren on Wall Street , funded a resurgence of the Klan , funded a eugenics movement , funded Hitler , funded Stalin and set up gangs of racist thugs and union busters under the American Legion and Black Legion .
50 years before it was the Pinkertons killing union organizers and fighting pitched battles to defend child labor in the steel mills and mines , defend the 7 day work week and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ changed , the GOP is still the same GOP it was then .
Behind the growth of the GOP/Trump “ base , ” racism , misogyny and fake class warfare is occultism , Kabbalah , Frankism and worship of Moloch , who I am told is a real god who gives GOP insiders kids to screw and murder .
If only I were making this up .
My lessons on this were learned while on an official investigation on behalf of a US president .
I add this only because people love this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are such destructive assholes and why the GOP has so many mindless idiots in position of power , screwing and killing kids is what it is all about .
No , I am not kidding .
VT folks like Kevin or Mike Harris , even to an extent Jim , grew up with money , parents who owned businesses , kids who grew up with nice homes , private schools .
I grew up not quite poor , I always worked and work was a gift .
At times , driving past factories @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have no workers here , they can ’ t afford to live here for minimum wage pay ) , I think about how much I would like to have a “ real job.
” Last real job I had was 1968 , wiring and testing prototype telephone switching systems .
What was important , though , was to hold on to the reality of growing up outside Detroit , watching our ditches overflow when it rained and walking to school .
What was also important was understanding politics , being taught , nearly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hustlers like Trump , Bush , Reagan , Nixon and so many others , each progressively worse than even Ike .
The them was always the same , unions are communism or organized crime , social security is socialism but behind it , the it was samo-samo… Destroy public education , poison water , air and food , let drug companies kill us all , cigarettes are good for you , and play the Hilteresque game we see with Trump .
When RDS talks about how I should be patient with him , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s base of racist toads and morons , I could see the intelligence in it .
Of course QAnon is crap , a video game , but the fearful and ignorant are the single greatest power that defines the United States , or is it ?
We have a very short wait to see .
This is my 4th election at VT. We predicted 9/11 , we predicted COVID 19 , we warned and warned .
Before VT , we warned of Reagan , the founder of the “ death of America , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ funded by Sheldon Adelson and laundered boatloads of Chinese cash .
In the process , knowing what was happening and predicting correctly disaster after disaster , some of us have thrived off the suffering of others that we worked so hard to prevent .
Is it funny that so many who drank the kool aid of neoconservative gangsterism now live hand to mouth and make the same mistakes ?
So many that grew up with money now live without but never learn .
Atlantic : Trump ’ s Pathology Is Now Clear As @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the president has gone from downplaying the pandemic to COVID denial .
The human brain makes decisions in two basic modes .
One is analytic , which involves carefully weighing costs and benefits and choosing the best option .
The other mode is intuitive : doing what feels right .
Both have their merits .
Intuitive thinking allows us to make split-second decisions .
It helps guide our romantic lives and our lunchtime sandwich choices .
But it is not the mode that should inform a strategic response to a pandemic .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s mode of thinking long ago abandoned hope that he might embrace analytic reasoning ( sometimes referred to simply as “ science ” ) .
But if there were ever a possibility that he might at least come to terms with the power of the coronavirus , it would have been when it sent him to the hospital .
Barely a month ago , recall , we had cause to speculate that the president might soon be dead .
Although details of Trump ’ s illness remain concealed—including abnormalities in his chest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first tested positive for the virus—the known facts of his case indicate that it was not mild .
He received supplemental oxygen to keep his red blood cells saturated , and he was prescribed dexamethasone , which is recommended only in serious cases .
Many patients emerge from illness having had a come-to-Jesus moment that reorients their thinking .
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie , for one , issued a mea culpa last week after he was discharged from a COVID-19 hospitalization that included a week in the intensive-care unit .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hits you how easy it is to prevent , ” he wrote under the headline “ I Should Have Worn a Mask ” in The Wall Street Journal .
“ We are asked to wear cloth over our mouth and nose , wash our hands and avoid crowds .
Seldom has so little been asked for so much benefit.
” Trump had no such revelation .
Instead , in the weeks since his illness , he has escalated from downplaying or neglecting the virus to outright denialism .
After returning to the White @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he has centered his reelection campaign around the notion that the pandemic is over .
“ With the fake news , everything is COVID , COVID , COVID , ” he said at an Omaha , Nebraska , rally this week .
“ I had it .
Here I am , right ?
” He cited the illness of his son Barron—who contracted the virus shortly after his father tested positive—as being extremely mild .
He did not mention the first lady , Melania , who described having COVID-19 as “ a rollercoaster @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which “ gives you a lot of time to reflect ” and reminded her of the need for “ compassion and humility.

My job was delivering the Redford Township Democrat to one square mile, 875 homes at that time. Small paper but this would, by today’s standards, be considered the world’s largest paper route. I got $1. This money went into my fund for Christmas presents.

There were major socioeconomic differences then as now but not like now. I would like to say I don’t know how we got here, a nation with millions of moronic and rabidly insane assholes but they were always there. Just read Steinbeck.
During the 20s, the Rothschilds, through their stepchildren on Wall Street, funded a resurgence of the Klan, funded a eugenics movement, funded Hitler, funded Stalin and set up gangs of racist thugs and union busters under the American Legion and Black Legion.
50 years before it was the Pinkertons killing union organizers and fighting pitched battles to defend child labor in the steel mills and mines, defend the 7 day work week and 12 hour day.
Not much has changed, the GOP is still the same GOP it was then.
Behind the growth of the GOP/Trump “base,” racism, misogyny and fake class warfare is occultism, Kabbalah, Frankism and worship of Moloch, who I am told is a real god who gives GOP insiders kids to screw and murder.
If only I were making this up. My lessons on this were learned while on an official investigation on behalf of a US president. I add this only because people love this stuff.
If you wondered why people are such destructive assholes and why the GOP has so many mindless idiots in position of power, screwing and killing kids is what it is all about.
No, I am not kidding.
VT folks like Kevin or Mike Harris, even to an extent Jim, grew up with money, parents who owned businesses, kids who grew up with nice homes, private schools. I grew up not quite poor, I always worked and work was a gift.
At times, driving past factories with job signs out front (we have no workers here, they can’t afford to live here for minimum wage pay), I think about how much I would like to have a “real job.”
Last real job I had was 1968, wiring and testing prototype telephone switching systems.
What was important, though, was to hold on to the reality of growing up outside Detroit, watching our ditches overflow when it rained and walking to school. What was also important was understanding politics, being taught, nearly at birth, to identify conmen and hustlers like Trump, Bush, Reagan, Nixon and so many others, each progressively worse than even Ike.
The them was always the same, unions are communism or organized crime, social security is socialism but behind it, the it was samo-samo…
Destroy public education, poison water, air and food, let drug companies kill us all, cigarettes are good for you, and play the Hilteresque game we see with Trump.
When RDS talks about how I should be patient with him, while he “works” Trump’s base of racist toads and morons, I could see the intelligence in it. Of course QAnon is crap, a video game, but the fearful and ignorant are the single greatest power that defines the United States, or is it? We have a very short wait to see.
This is my 4th election at VT. We predicted 9/11, we predicted COVID 19, we warned and warned. Before VT, we warned of Reagan, the founder of the “death of America,” and of the Kosher Nostra mechanism funded by Sheldon Adelson and laundered boatloads of Chinese cash.
In the process, knowing what was happening and predicting correctly disaster after disaster, some of us have thrived off the suffering of others that we worked so hard to prevent.
Is it funny that so many who drank the kool aid of neoconservative gangsterism now live hand to mouth and make the same mistakes? So many that grew up with money now live without but never learn.
Atlantic: Trump’s Pathology Is Now Clear
As the coronavirus spreads uncontrolled across the U.S., the president has gone from downplaying the pandemic to COVID denial.
Democratic Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi says documents reveal that the Trump administration attempted to use $250 million of taxpayer money, meant for Covid-19 education purposes, as a "slush fund" to help President Trump's reelection campaign by trying to rebrand the pandemic. pic.twitter.com/KEBsLRUBc9 — The Lead CNN (@TheLeadCNN) October 29, 2020
The human brain makes decisions in two basic modes. One is analytic, which involves carefully weighing costs and benefits and choosing the best option. The other mode is intuitive: doing what feels right. Both have their merits.
Intuitive thinking allows us to make split-second decisions. It helps guide our romantic lives and our lunchtime sandwich choices. But it is not the mode that should inform a strategic response to a pandemic.
[ Editor’s Note: Trump has always presented himself as ‘Mr. Intuitive’, the genius that ‘just knows’ what to do. And anyone who disagrees, he deals with them like a mob boss would…JD ]
Russian hackers are now launching cyber attacks against U.S. hospitals at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, and Trump STILL says nothing. Truly pathetic. — Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 (@joncoopertweets) October 30, 2020
Even casual observers of President Donald Trump’s mode of thinking long ago abandoned hope that he might embrace analytic reasoning (sometimes referred to simply as “science”). But if there were ever a possibility that he might at least come to terms with the power of the coronavirus, it would have been when it sent him to the hospital.
Barely a month ago, recall, we had cause to speculate that the president might soon be dead. Although details of Trump’s illness remain concealed—including abnormalities in his chest CT scan and the date that he first tested positive for the virus—the known facts of his case indicate that it was not mild.
He received supplemental oxygen to keep his red blood cells saturated, and he was prescribed dexamethasone, which is recommended only in serious cases.
Many patients emerge from illness having had a come-to-Jesus moment that reorients their thinking. Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, for one, issued a mea culpa last week after he was discharged from a COVID-19 hospitalization that included a week in the intensive-care unit.
“When you get this disease, it hits you how easy it is to prevent,” he wrote under the headline “I Should Have Worn a Mask” in The Wall Street Journal. “We are asked to wear cloth over our mouth and nose, wash our hands and avoid crowds. Seldom has so little been asked for so much benefit.”
On Friday US hit highest number of Covid cases EVER at 99,000! Plus nearly 1,000 Americans died-up 16% from last week. Yet Trump keeps lying we "turned a corner" as he encourages supporters to oppose social distancing measures #VoteBlueToEndTheNightmare https://t.co/4EQ3vsFKzC — (((DeanObeidallah))) (@DeanObeidallah) October 31, 2020

Trump had no such revelation. Instead, in the weeks since his illness, he has escalated from downplaying or neglecting the virus to outright denialism. After returning to the White House and sanctimoniously removing his mask, he has centered his reelection campaign around the notion that the pandemic is over.
“With the fake news, everything is COVID, COVID, COVID,” he said at an Omaha, Nebraska, rally this week. “I had it. Here I am, right?” He cited the illness of his son Barron—who contracted the virus shortly after his father tested positive—as being extremely mild.
He did not mention the first lady, Melania, who described having COVID-19 as “a rollercoaster of symptoms,” the experience of which “gives you a lot of time to reflect” and reminded her of the need for “compassion and humility.” Read more…

White House officials and senior aides to President Donald Trump are preparing for “a disaster” on Election Day as they expect the president to be soundly defeated by Democratic nominee Joe Biden, according to a report.
In interviews with the Daily Beast, multiple officials and associates in Trump’s inner circle indicated they expected the president to lose the November 3 election.
Many of them have come to accept a Biden victory after a year of campaigning marred by coronavirus deaths, economic devastation and racial and civil unrest across the country.
Stephen Moore, a Trump advisor, lamented the prospect of a defeat, saying, “I believe the betting markets, which say there’s a 60 percent chance that Biden wins, and a 40 percent chance that Trump does.”
Moore said he had hoped that the Gross Domestic Product report that was released on Thursday would have given the Trump campaign a boost. He recalled advising the president during a White House meeting last month to play up the report for the American voters.
However, shortly after the report came out on Thursday—showing the economy had regained much of the ground it had lost in the spring– Moore said he saw no political benefits in promoting the numbers.
“I really don’t have a good feeling about this,” he conceded.
Moore was not alone in his pessimism about the state of the presidential race.
Out of the 16 sources—campaign aides, Republican donors, senior administration officials, and close associates of the president and his family—whom The Daily Beast interviewed only five said the president had a good chance of winning.
One major donor, Dan Eberhart, chief executive at Canary, said he regrets donating to the Trump campaign.
“I think Trump has a 25 percent chance of winning the election. His campaign focused on exciting his base not on pursuing people in the center. COVID was a massive headwind that minimized the roaring Trump economy,” he said.
“The president has struggled to maintain message discipline. And the left is highly motivated to vote, as seen by the record turnout so far. That’s not to say there’s not a window for the president to win. It’s just being realistic that he’s the underdog in this contest,” he added.
Eberhardt said in retrospect he would have used his contributions to save the Republican-controlled Senate in this election cycle rather than donate to the president’s floundering campaign.
“Honestly, I would have put all my donations towards holding the Senate. I never thought the Senate would be in play,” he explained.
According to data provided by the Center for Responsive Politics, of the more than 1,100 donors who gave the $5,400 legal maximum to Trump’s 2016 campaign, about 450 of them have not made any contributions to his reelection effort.
Trump is behind Biden by an average of 8 percentage points in national polls, but the president claims the polls undercount his army of silent supporters who helped him win in 2016.

We are certainly living in an intolerable world .

Last September , Lori Loughlin , the actress who was caught red-handed committing mail fraud in connection with the 2019 nationwide college admissions bribery scandal , announced that she gets to choose her own prison cell .
Loughlin and her husband disguised themselves as donors and paid $ 500,000 to the Key Worldwide Foundation “ so that the admissions committee of University of Southern California ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would join the women ’ s rowing team although neither had trained in the sport of rowing nor had plans in doing so.

Just two months !
And you ain ’ t seen nothing yet .

There would be no way for any average @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

We just want the same treatment if committed of same crime that ’ s all.
