Thanks! I hadn't noticed that.

Ah. Thanks, I hadn't noticed.

I hate to be a killjoy, but the moon looks "exactly the same" today as it did thousands of years ago. Time travel is nothing to do with it.

Hear-hear! Those facts and that line in the Constitution need to become common knowledge.

https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/full-text

Article 1, Section 10 (first paragraph of three):

Section 10: Powers Denied to the States

No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.

Here's another favorite:

Article 3, Section 4:

Section 4

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Definition (from the on-disk dictionary of my copy of MAC O/S)

republic | rəˈpəblik | noun a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.

NOTE: VOTE FRAUD prevents the PEOPLE from exercising their choice for their elected officials, meaning that in California, Oregon, Arizona, Washington state, and other places where vote fraud is rampant, we don't actually HAVE republican forms of government. Vote fraud is therefore a FEDERAL matter. Oddly, is isn't really being framed in that way in most discussions.

Yes. AKA sociopaths, psychopaths, and others with certain types of severe emotional damage or enthralled to destructive and anti-life propaganda.

But then, those people are clearly NOT "in their right minds."

Same here. Hard to read; even harder to look at some of the photos. Horrifying to know that people are capable of such evil.

Another great meme!

Yes, check out what happens to the little people who backed Communist takeovers once the Commies came to power. Lined up against the wall, many of them.

The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression

Oooh, that's REALLY good.

That's my best-case-scenario hope. I wouldn't bet on it though; plenty of nasty Black Swan-type events are clearly waiting in the wings. I don't think we'll avoid all of them. But Hope springs eternal . . .

The entire LEFT COAST is red, and is only being governed by Communists because mail-in-voting and other fraud-enabling election rules have been in place for years.

Exactly. The only reason FOIA would even be needed is if the government was working AGAINST the people instead of FOR the people. FOIA is a desperate attempt by the slaves at a semblance of non-corruption in the government that rules their lives.

Yes: things ARE accelerating. We're moving into the vertical part of the curve.

Precipice incoming.

I've always thought "the precipice" referred to a near-apocalyptic, almost Mad Max type disaster, but I now believe that it also (or instead of, if we're really lucky) refers to the sudden climb to the tipping point of KNOWLEDGE among the general population regarding the Cabal, the horrors that have long been inflicted upon us, and the evil PLAN [they] have for mankind, including the culling / murder of most of the population.

From R. J. Rummel's Death by Government, 1994 (Note: Rummel continued researching 20th Century democide and the figures below GREW as he found more evidence of government murder; with a final tally before his death of 262 million deaths in that 100-yr period. Over a quarter-billion murders in a single century).

Link didn't work (it's truncated); here's one from the site's home page to the story:

So sorry to hear about your wife's problem.

Before you start down an expensive (and possibly toxic) road with Big Medicine, it might be worth looking into supplements and lifestyle changes that could help. Below is the Protocol page for MS at Life Extension, and I've pasted in a short list of supplements they recommend for MS patients. Millions of people WITHOUT MS (including me) take all these and more, and they're generally beneficial for anyone, so I wouldn't wait for a confirmed diagnoses to consider starting these.

Also, there is a LOT more available out there; dig in and do some research and you might find enough help that bankrupting yourself for medical care isn't needed in this case. Worth a try, I'd think.

Best wishes --

Nutrients

Vitamin D: Epidemiological studies suggest that the prevalence and severity of MS increases in areas with lower levels of sunlight, which promotes the production of vitamin D. Vitamin D is involved in multiple aspects of immune health, and a vitamin D supplement is generally recommended for individuals with MS.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10): CoQ10 is an antioxidant involved in mitochondrial energy production. Clinical trials suggest CoQ10 supplements help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in people with MS. CoQ10 may also improve symptoms of the disease, including fatigue, depression, and pain.

Lipoic acid: (Also called Alpha Lipoic Acid and R-Lipoic Acid) -- Lipoic acid, which is another critical component in mitochondrial metabolism, possesses a variety of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Studies in people with MS suggest lipoic acid can help reduce inflammation and may improve functionality in some patients with progressive disease.

Omega-3 fatty acids: Polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids have a variety of anti-inflammatory properties due to their ability to modulate macrophage and T-cell activity.93 In a rat model of demyelinating disease, omega-3 fatty acids were found to inhibit several pro-inflammatory signaling cascades that promote activation of T cells.93 In patients with MS, omega-3 fatty acids and fish oil supplementation (in doses ranging from 1 to 10 grams/day) significantly reduced inflammatory markers and were associated with reductions in relapse rate and improvements in quality of life.94 The authors note in their conclusions from the studies reviewed that a dose of 4 grams/day of omega-3s or fish oil is recommended. However, in another review of four clinical trials, of which only one utilized a 4 gram/day dose of fish oil, omega-3 supplementation did not appear to have a significant effect on disability in MS but did reduce levels of the inflammatory mediator tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α).95 Further research considering the impact of dose on MS symptoms and disease progression is needed. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a fatty acid found in seafood and algae, possesses a number of neuroprotective properties.96 Preclinical studies done in animal models of MS suggest DHA may play an anti-inflammatory role in MS as well. One study found that DHA treatment was associated with improved regulation of dendritic cell activity, which resulted in reduced production of pro-inflammatory signals.97 In another study, a DHA-rice diet delayed the onset and reduced the severity of demyelinating disease in a mouse model of MS.98

L-carnosine: Carnosine helps promote mitochondrial activity in skeletal muscle and prevents exercise-induced oxidative stress. Carnosine levels are decreased in the muscles of MS patients, and supplementation with L-carnosine has been linked to improvements in disease symptoms.

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has been found to exert cell-survival effects within the brain and may help facilitate recovery after CNS injury.114 In a pilot study involving 24 participants with MS who received either NAC supplementation (1,000 mg/day orally or 50 mg/kg via infusion) plus standard care or standard care alone, NAC use was associated with significant improvement in glucose metabolism within the brain as well as self-reported improvements in cognition and attention compared with standard care alone.115 A small pilot study found that, among 15 individuals with progressive MS, NAC supplementation (1,250 mg three times daily) exhibited a positive effect on levels of antioxidants within the blood and was possibly associated with sustained improvements in fatigue.116

Flavonoids are molecules found in fruits, vegetables, grains, teas, and wine that possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.117 In both human and animal studies of demyelinating disease, flavonoid supplementation, including with the green tea catechin epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), has been associated with significant improvements in disease outcomes, including functional capacity and anxiety, which are thought to be primarily driven by antioxidant activity.118,119 Clinical trials have also examined the effects of cocoa, which has a naturally high flavonoid content, on symptoms in MS. In these studies, *consumption of flavonoid-rich cocoa improved symptoms of fatigue over the course of a day.*120,121

B vitamins play a number of important roles in the body and especially the brain. These include supporting energy metabolism, myelin formation, and exhibiting antioxidative and other neuroprotective effects.122 Results from animal models of B vitamin deficiency have found some evidence of mild neurodegeneration, including myelin degeneration, which has led to increasing interest in the role of B vitamin deficiency and supplementation for people with MS.123,124 Studies of vitamin B status in individuals with MS have been inconclusive, with some finding vitamin B deficiency among MS patients and others reporting no difference compared with healthy controls.125 However, in a clinical study of 16 patients with RRMS and persistent visual loss after optic neuritis, supplementation with B vitamins, including vitamins B1 (300 mg/day), B6 (450 mg/day), and B12 (1,500 mcg/day), on top of conventional treatment was associated with significant improvements in visual acuity after 90 days.126 In animal models, pantetheine, an analog of vitamin B5, has been found to provide neuroprotective activities in other neurodegenerative diseases, but research in MS is lacking.127-129

Vitamin E, one of the antioxidant vitamins found in a variety of heart-healthy foods, has immune-modulating properties. In a study involving 88 patients with RRMS, for every 4.3 mg/L increase in serum concentration of alpha-tocopherol, a common form of vitamin E, there was a 36.8% lower likelihood of developing new brain lesions.136 Another clinical study found that among 34 patients with MS, vitamin E supplementation (alpha-tocopherol, 400 mg/day) for three months was associated with significant reductions in serum markers of oxidative stress.137 (Note: there are eight fractions of vitamin E: four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. Plain alpha tocopherol isn't the best way to go here, a mix of all eight provides the best results. Here's LE's mixed full-spectrum E -- I have no financial connection to Life Extension other than as a long-time customer).

Curcumin, which is found in turmeric, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and is thought to provide potential therapeutic benefit to individuals with MS by providing protection against oxidative stress and regulating pro-inflammatory signaling in the CNS.138,139 In some preclinical and preliminary clinical research, nano formulations of curcumin were beneficial. Nanoparticles such as this may enhance curcumin bioavailability as well as delivery to the CNS and cells. However, more research is needed on nano-curcumin preparations.140-142

Same thing has happened to many naturopaths and other doctors who treated patients successfully without (for the most part) use of Big Pharma products.

Trump fever appears to be near world-wide right now, as people wake up all over the globe to the need to remove corruption and evil from every society.

Here's hoping that factor prevails in your neck of the woods, purkiss.

I don't for a moment think Q is Superman, but I certainly DO think the massive US global intelligence apparatus has the ability to surveil pretty much everything in near-real time, and it doesn't seem impossible that some of that surveillance is devoted to protecting patriots involved in moving the plan forward. That would actually make good sense; in a war, you protect your assets when you can. Sometimes you can't, of course, sometimes even for strategic or other reasons, but NOT trying to protect the troops and other assets would be insane and counter-productive. That's why camo, helmets, vests, etc are issued, for instance.

What's your interpretation of this two-sentence drop?

Me too. Must have been something serious.

The last line of Adams' X post is:

This is the biggest political mistake in American history.

I can't imagine anyone here disagreeing with that.

Good point. We're a varied lot in many ways, but quite special in a particular manner.

That's an interesting and encouraging thought.

I've always had trouble with this one.

Millions dead or badly injured from the jabs; skyrocketing violence from the millions of illegal aliens being purposefully imported; small businesses bankrupted wholesale during the scamdemic, and more: WHAT, exactly, are we and our families safe from?

I get that short and pithy makes this more impactful than it otherwise would be, but more detail would have given this post a lot more credibility.

I don't think there's any reason to believe the CCP bribed people to become whistleblowers AND then "had them taken out" -- Boeing could have done that last part all on their own, and given how corrupt the company has become it wouldn't surprise me.
