VOTER FRAUD TODAY, VOTER FRAUD TOMORROW, VOTER FRAUD FOREVER!

boycott-cemetery-fencesLast week, the New York Times published a hit piece on my friend Cleta Mitchell.

The Times story lies from the top, beginning with its headline: “Lawyer Who Plotted to Overturn Trump Loss Recruits Election Deniers to Watch Over the Vote.” Mitchell did not “plot to overturn Trump loss,” she worked in a single state, Georgia, to examine and expose election integrity issues there.

This is ostensibly a news story, not an op-ed. But when it comes to protecting the Democrats’ ability to implement a voter fraud strategy, the Times takes no chances. And neither will the Democrats in November.

COMMUNISM STILL HAUNTS RUSSIA

communism-haunts-russiaRussia is a superficially Europeanized society that sustained more than 70 years of communism.  When the Soviet system finally collapsed in 1991, the result was not stability but a decade of near-anarchy. With such an inheritance, Vladimir Putin’s tyranny followed organically.

Mr. Putin has been described accurately as a fascist, owing to his cult of personality and ferocious ultranationalist assault on Ukraine. It is also true that Mr. Putin has been Soviet in his style of rule. He has amassed more personal power than any Russian since Joseph Stalin.

Many were naive when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, thinking communism was consigned to an irrecoverable past. The past three decades have proved to be a mere false start for Russia because the problems of communism are still with us.

KEEPING YOUR SANITY BY TAKING YOUR TIME AT THE START

When we see someone who truly excels at what they do, one quality often jumps out: they make it look easy. Like Roger Federer above.

But what is it that gives us the impression of ease? They seem to take their time. Even when you’re seeing an elite athlete making lightning quick moves, it seems to be moving more slowly than the actual elapsed time. They’re not panicked, they’re not forcing things; the moves look fluid.

How does this help us if we don’ t actually have expertise yet? Let’s find out.

grocery-shopping

Got food?  Got fuel?  Got investments?  Thanks to fanatical Xiden green policies and a hyped-up money supply, inflation is going to get a lot worse, especially for food and fuel, the coming economic downturn is going to be brutal.

But look at the bright side – the worse this will all be, the worse will be the Dem Wipe-Out in November!

FLASHBACK FRIDAY SMUGGLERS PARADISE

jw-with-merchant-on-boat Khasab, Musendam, Enclave of Oman, October 2006. The sharp tip of Arabia, known as the Musandam Point, sticks into the Persian Gulf, separating it from the Indian Ocean. The Strait of Hormuz is only 30 miles wide from Musandam Point to the coast of Iran, and through it passes a substantial fraction of the world's crude oil.

enclave-of-oman

I came here to see the Persian smugglers. Go down to the wharves in Khasab and you will see them piled high with waterproof-wrapped bales of clothes, cases of soft drinks and juice, cartons of children's toys and electronic goods, an entire shopping mall of stuff, all ready to be crammed and tied down into 20 ft. long open speedboats with powerful outboard motors capable of outrunning Iranian Navy patrols.

There are dozens, scores, of waiting speedboats. The run from Khasab harbor to coves on the Iranian coast or the Iranian island of Qeshm takes about three hours. An average night will see dozens of speedboats racing across the Strait of Hormuz smuggling goods into Iran. The smugglers couldn’t have been more friendly to me. They hate the mullahs and are proud they are helping poor people in Iran. I had a great time with them. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #169 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

THE DONGBA SPIRIT OF NATURE

shv-statue

Originally nomads from the Tibetan Plateau, the Nashi people settled in the fertile Himalayan foothills of Yunnan over 2,000 years ago. From the ancient Tibetan religion of Bön, they developed a unique religion of nature-worship called Dongba. The progenitors of humanity and nature were two half-brothers, two mothers with the same father. Nature is controlled by a human-snake chimera called Shv – a statue of whom you see here.

The Nashi are a peaceful gentle people whose ideal is living in accordance with nature. They dress very colorfully, women have equal respect with men, they write with the world’s only still-functioning pictographic script, and are proud of preserving their culture for millennia. It is an enchanting experience to be among them. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #163 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

THE GRAND PRISMATIC SPRING OF YELLOWSTONE

yellowstone-prismatic-spring

There are places in our world so staggeringly beautiful to have to see them to believe they exist.  Yet those people walking along the foot bridge can’t see what you’re looking at.  That has to be in the air, hovering from high above in a helicopter.  We live in a world of such beauty it really does take your breath away. And best of all, the beauty of the Grand Prismatic Spring  of Yellowstone is right here in America.

Here we are at Yellowstone in Wyoming, a wonderland by itself.  Just to the south are the Grand Tetons. To the west is the Sawtooth Range and the Middle Fork of the Salmon River – one of the best whitewater runs on the planet.  It goes endlessly on and on.  America the Beautiful is not just a song – it’s glorious reality.

GRAND ESCALANTE STAIRCASE

grand-escalante

As you can see, this place is aptly named. It is simply phantasmagorical – nature on LSD. Then again, so much of southern Utah is too, for close by Escalante are the Vermillion Cliffs, Capitol Reef, Bryce Canyon, Zion Canyon, Monument Valley and a lot more.

The entire area is Navaho country, so it is no surprise their native religion is based on peyote, a cactus containing the hallucinogen, mescaline, with the Navaho belief that nature surrounding them was designed by the Peyote Bird.

However, it is not necessary to take any hallucinogen to achieve a sense of ecstasy being here – just a deep appreciation of what a wondrous world – a breathtaking world – it is that we are all privileged to be alive in. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #180 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

HALF-FULL REPORT 06/03/22

gun-or-cultureThe old cliché that “guns don’t kill people, people do” is still true and now more than ever, as the Dems desperately search for a diversion away from disaster at the polls five months from now.  How gin-clear can it be with headlines like this last night (6/02): Joe Biden Says Radical Gun Control Should Be ‘Central’ to Voting in November?

How more hysterically demagogic can DDs (Desperate Dems) be when they scream:  “Republicans are on the side of killers of our kids”?

This is no surprise, as you and I well know that Democrats and the Left are advocates of fascism not freedom, and that a disarmed citizenry is a necessary condition to achieve the fascist power they crave.  And next November, any ability to have that power will be rudely ripped from their smarmy hands without a massive diversion.

Enjoy watching the Congresslady from Rifle, Colorado, Lauren Boebert, eviscerate the Dem gun control mania on the floor of the House yesterday (6/02).  Prepare to stand up and cheer:

UNBLOCKING UKRAINIAN PORTS TO PREVENT MASS GLOBAL STARVATION

World Food Program Chief Forecasts Millions Of Deaths If Ukrainian Ports Remain Blocked
World Food Program Chief Forecasts Millions Of Deaths If Ukrainian Ports Remain Blocked
“Sanctions on Russia have no connection to the unfolding global food crisis. The sole reason for shortages, rising prices, and threat of hunger is the Russian military physically blocking 22 million tons of Ukrainian food exports in our seaports. Demand Moscow to end its blockade.”  –Dmytro Kuleba, Ukraine Minister of Foreign Affairs, May 28, 2022

 

We are on the precipice. 10% of the global population may be facing mass starvation. You’re looking at a humanitarian crisis of unprecedented proportions, probably the worst since the Black Death of the 14th century.” – James Rickards, international economist and investment banker, May 26, 2022

From the beginning of the 2022 Russo-Ukrainian war, the Russian Black Sea Fleet moved in to block or occupy all of Ukraine’s ports on the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. Russia’s blockade of Ukrainian ports is contributing to a growing human calamity that extends far beyond the immediate region.

Around 70 merchant vessels loaded with grain and other critical cargo have been unable to leave Ukrainian ports for the past three months due to the high danger of armed attack from Russian forces (Fakty.com.ua, May 9). 22 million tons of food products, including grain, barley, sunflower seeds and more, remain stuck in port (Ukrinform, May 21).

THE BAG OF DEAD CATS

“Disturbing new video obtained by The Post shows demented Robb Elementary School shooter Salvador Ramos grinning as he holds up a bag of blood-soaked dead cats.”  New York Post, May 30, 2022
As some have argued in response to the relentless push to disarm law-abiding Americans after the mass shooting in Uvalde, TX, things are so much more complicated than just the gun used.

That’s become clear after an unearthed video of the shooter raised every red flag imaginable, showing Salvador Ramos holding a bag of dead cats. If this video was otherwise seen by authorities prior, it’s inexcusable that it wasn’t acted on.

Why wasn’t it?

CAN WE PUT AN END TO GUN-FREE ZONES NOW?

non-dumb-free-zoneIn the aftermath of the massacre of 19 children and two adults at the elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, all the usual suspects are pushing for more gun control laws. None of their proposed laws will reflect any lessons learned from what went wrong and which cost so many innocent lives.

One reason is that none of them address the vulnerability created for schools and churches by the misguided policy of “gun-free zones.”  We need to get rid them, and here’s how.

THE PSYCHOPATH AS PHILANTHROPIST

The real title of Gates’ How To Prevent the Next Pandemic

There’s a joke being told in my house this week: Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend, a little-known and slightly autistic high school dropout named Bill Gates has a new book out this month. Perhaps you’ve heard of him?

Unfortunately, of course, we have all heard of him.

From Borneo to Boston, the entire world is only too familiar with the man who wants to inject you into the future. Bill Gates is the front man — the public face — of Big Pharma’s global COVID tyranny.

Who else would be dumb enough to evangelize that all of the world’s problems could be solved with the tip of a syringe?

That’s an idiotic message because it’s so obviously untrue. Gates doesn’t have any interest in people shaping their own future — he wants to shape your future, and he would really appreciate it if you’d get out of the way.
