Agree with Mister Roboto on the Luciferian Project piece, although it was good to read as an innoculant against creeping theocratic impulses on the right. What are the Trinitarian laws, specifically, and who would administer them? The Episcopalians or other woke Protestants? The Catholic Church? Evangelicals?
The US Constitution works OK by me, if only we would follow it more closely,. Throw in a neo-Franciscan concern for the poor, the living earth, and build some free hospitals and I’m on board, but leave governance with the people.
At the very least, let the petrodollar collapse and vaxx genocide already in motion play out for another decade or two before letting the current crop of clowns in charge make any big changes. Easier to pick up the pieces once the Empire is down.
Even in a blue state like Oregon, the authoritarian Covidian Cultists have blown their wad, and, WHO Treaty or not, will not succeed next time. Not even by adding the National Guard as backup goons to the Antifa thugs. Their credibility is shot.
I have one remaining Covidian Cultists friend, and we were supposed to have Thanksgiving together tomorrow, but I will be cancelling not just the meal but also our relationship later this morning. We have tried to set aside politics and Covid stuff for the last couple years, since our friendship goes back to the 80s. But lately he keeps mocking religion, cheering on the weaponization of the DOJ and FBI against MAGA types & the Ukraine proxy war & the astoundingly hypocritical “election denier” slur while bragging about his plans to get the Covid booster (which he did yesterday) and again suggesting indirectly that I am socially irresponsible for not doing so myself.
The relationship has become abusive in that regard, just like my relationship with the Portland City Council, Oregon Health Authority, Kaiser Permanente, the CDC/FDA, Corporate and Social Media, and my Godparents became in the last 2.6 years.
I like D Benton Smith’s idea about riding the wave, and will try to be direct and truthful but kind in my cancellation this morning. I fully expect the crescendo of trials and tribulations to continue for many years yet, but it does feel like the wave must be creating. May we all find joy and purpose and love with friends and enemies alike, up close or from a distance.
Happy Thanksgiving to Ilargi and all the commenters here, for which I am very grateful. Be well and take care. ☮️
Thank you for the link to the Died Suddenly video on Rumble. Helluva way to start the day, but a lot better than spinning around in circles during a cardiac arrest that ends your life.
Puts paying $1800 for a dental crown after losing insurance into perspective. And more kindling for the bonfire that will hopefully result in Nuremberg 2.0.

South Africa and Africa are two different places and two different names. One is a country, and the other is a continent.
I was discussing the difference between identifying two continents versus a single country in written and spoken English. But it’s no skin off my back if you want to keep calling the USA “America” like you did in your comment. You will have many tens of millions more people in the USA who agree with your approach than I do with mine.
And all things considered, I kinda like it that way.
Batiushka knows what time it is, and Kunstler has done great research on the incestuous imperial mandarins that run this clown show, but my guess is that his prediction of Justice #743 will fall flat just like always. If they got away with Russiagate, two fake impeachments and the 2020 steal, it’s unlikely they will be stopped anytime soon. The zombie cheering squad is still too large.
As a USAnian who went to high school for a bit in Canada, one thing I learned is that referring to the USA as “America” is arrogant and snickered at around the world, despite the impression one might get from the garbage on TV. Part of being a civilized Zone B country after the empire falls will hopefully involve a change in language. If good manners and humility might help us rejoin civilized humanity, this might be a good place to start.
With an added bonus being less snickering from our closest neighbors over here in the backwaters. ☮️
The CTH piece on ballots vs. votes is the only thing that makes sense. Even here in Oregon they passed a law last year that says ballots can be valid if postmarked on election day, whereas before they had to be received on election day. Gives them another week to massage the numbers.
I am not the only one who sees this, either – it was the subject of conversation with a diverse group of five people in the chiropractor lobby yesterday, all five nodding in agreement. I think the DNC- Team Obama goal all along has been to dial up the brazen thuggery and thievery to the point of inciting a violent reaction from the people, so they can fund and deploy their “domestic terrorism” armies. It’s what they do overseas with the color revolutions, so why not do it at home?
Years ago an uncle said that mail-in balloting in Oregon meant we would never elect a Republican governor again. Everybody laughed at the time, but turns out he was 100% correct.
Not my President.
Not my Congress.
Not my Governor.
Not my state legislature.Thanks, for that Sassoon poem, a great find. A Russophile from a young age, mostly from my love of classical ballet, my heart breaks watching how the original sin of Hillary’s Russiagate Hoax is grinding up the innocent men and boys of Ukraine.
TAE is my first stop every morning, and tv news alongside NYT etc. was turned off for good on Friday November 8, 2020. And today, finally, I will put my money where my mouth is and make a donation to this site.
God bless the peacemakers. Thank you Raul!
Bought 50 copies of RFK Jr.’s book “A Letter to Liberals” and will be mailing copies to the Portland City Council, Multnomah County Commission, Governor Kate Brown, Kaiser Permanente, the Oregon Medical Association, and the Oregon Health Authority. Voting for Jo Rae Perkins to take Wyden’s Senate seat, Jo Rae having stated unequivocally that the jab was never a vaccine, that the lockdowns and school/business/church closures were unconstitutional, and that we should get out of Ukraine.
Virtual hugs to TAE commentariat, and agreeing with V. Arnold that the wildlife stuff is wonderful. Every day a chance to fix our gaze on beauty, truth and God’s creation!
Joy! Love!
Hedges is not too old, he is just still oriented to US political establishment, and has a blind spot when it comes to leftist political violence and weaponizing the police state against dissent. Watching fascistic thugs and their DNC sponsors loot and burn and vandalize my hometown of Portland up close for the last six years, and then watching Hedges demonize Aaron Danielson for daring to walk downtown with a US flag t-shirt, while celebrating his tattooed, street-racing “100% Antifa” cold-blooded murderer and criminal Michael Reinoehl as some kind of freedom fighter, I stopped reading his articles altogether.
The real “Christian” fascists run the Pentagon, the US Air Force Academy, and both the evangelical and mainline Protestant churches in the USA, who join hands with Hedges in pointing fingers at poor people on behalf of the global rich.
Thanks to Germ for the excellent article link. Will definitely be using that one in the “rep” letter on tap for this afternoon.
Afewknowthetruth: I could not agree more, great comment.
I pray every day these psychos don’t get us all killed before thermodynamics, financial chaos and/or Ma’am Gaia get a chance to shut down the US war machine.Peace! Love!
Big fan of CJ Hopkins, but just finished Desmet’s book over the weekend and think CJ went off the rails on this one.
Desmet never argues that the Scamdemic was the result of “mass hypnosis”, or attempts to pathologize the political essence of totalitarianism. Neither does Desmet suggest there is a psych doctor to patient solution for the madness of crowds as CJ suggests he did. The book read to me like a clinical exposition of how and why 50+ years of obscenely-funded, globally-scaled Operation Mockingbird stuff by the Yanks and Her Majesty (RIP darling) have so thoroughly screwed us all beyond repair.
Or at least until the petrodollar and Anglos get cut back down to size, which God willing won’t be too much longer now.
Disappointed to see Clowney the Clintonite Harpie on this page today, peddling killler clot shots for toddlers, WEF & White House propaganda on the climate, and the kind of smug condescension and self-righteousness that saturates the Blue Team political establishment and corporate media here in Oregon. Watching that video made me feel dirty, nevermind the gag reflex.
Great find on the NIH ivermectin listing, though – almost like an actual scientist with a conscience might still be employed there. Not that it will save them or us from medical ruin and unhinged political wrath going forward, but at least it’s something.
That video of Graham and McCain wringing their hands with bloodlust and Russophobic hate in Ukraine from 2016 should be mandatory viewing for every US Citizen, immediately after watching WikiLeaks’ Collateral Murder video from 2010. We are ruled by a petulant criminal cabal of evil children.
So when’s Daddy gonna show up and lay down the law? Clearly Trump was not up to the job. Maybe Russia and China can help? Thermodynamics? Petrodollar collapse by Christmas?
Agreed on the complete depravity of those Nazi Chic Vogue ads. Almost as nauseating as an essay by the Episcopal Bishop of Western Oregon I just read yesterday, cheering on the Ukrainian proxy war as a valiant defense of God’s Kingdom. And then two essays before that a lecture on the inherent racism and colonialism of the church, without connecting the dots back to their current warmongering.
Daily viewer for 9+ years since peak oil/$ was the hot topic, first post.
Loving the Jesus/Horus side-by-side because it’s unifying and funny and makes at least one good point, whether or not it is 100% entirely accurate on either a mythological or historical basis. Contrasting the gobsmacked look on Jesus’ face with the smug insouciance of the sketchy Horus character is worth the price if admission alone.
Thanks for your work in Athens and for this great blog, Mr. Meijer! #FreeAssange #Tulsi2020 #PortlandSucks #RussiaRocks
