I don’t remember Lindsey Vonn, but I don’t keep up with winter Olympic sports much. So I guess this our Blonde Friday?
DAYAAM it’s COLD here in L.A. 36 degrees! Shannon, you can have this awful weather, way too cold for me. But we have had highs in the 80’s since mid October so I should be thankful.
Mornin’ Gang -
Mornin!
Last night went to liberal neighbor buddy’s 70th birthday party down at the TexMex joint. He kept saying 70?? Couldn’t believe it. I thought once you hit that mark this old stuff was old hat. Guess not. 😀
Oh BTW, no politics got brought up so that was good. Me and a couple other friends were ready if he started lol.

Under the heading of “you can’t make this
S….stuff up; On Fox news they were out on the street talking to the visitors there and one couple was from Arkansas, their last name? Cousins! 😀-
Aren’t they all?

Meanwhile, on the northern coast of Scotland this morning the sheep are waiting for their breakfast.
Actually this was a few hours ago since the sun comes up learner there than here. -
Well I got my Thanksgiving Dinner shopping done. 😀

Long and twisted story. Fascinating.
Matt Gaetz : What Actually Happened
Alright frens, now that Matt Gaetz is out of the running you’re going to hear a lot of takes on what happened and plenty of “keep your d*ck in your pants” lines too

I read that last night and was thinking how incredible the story was.

My 7:48
I’ve gotten hooked on a silly Netflix series called Diplomat, silly yes, but really the plots are not much stranger than that story.
-
Ms. Vonn is pretty and if you look at some of the un-retouched photos of her, she definitely has a jock body. Her thigh, arm and shoulder musculature shows a lifetime of skiing. However, I was a little shocked to find Pam Biondi just turned 59 years old a few days ago. Amazing, she looks great.

GJT at 7:48 AM
I don’t get it. What exactly is the story ?
-
There is a video I think, but it doesn’t load. I got this beside the verbiage; Something went wrong. Try reloading.

I think you have to be a signed-in X member for the video to show up.

It’s not a video, just a long thread, numerous posts.

Oh, the whole thread didn’t post, not sure how to link it. Numerous separate posts from Mel @Villagecrazylady.

I never knew this. This is pretty amusing. Winning skiers in events in Europe are awarded farm animals. Dairy cows, goats, etc.
In 2005, as the winner of the downhill at Val d’Isère, Vonn was offered a pregnant Tarine cow, a locally popular dairy breed. As most skiers do not want to keep livestock, she was offered the option to sell the animal immediately back to the organizers for EUR 5,000. However, Vonn decided to keep it, as she knew a farmer in Austria who would be willing to take care of the cow, who she named Olympe. In 2009, she won a goat, which she gave to a different farmer in Austria. In 2014, she won a calf in Val d’Isère, which she kept as well. As of 2014, she owned a small herd of cows on the farm.

500 Nitro Express Double put it on a 60ish lb Hill Country pig.
From the comments: Who uses a $10 dollar round to dispatch a .60 cent pig? 😉 -
Last night my buddy up in Reeltown texted me to ask what was the name of the Chevrolet Dealership here in Podunk in the 60’s. I texted him the answer back: Dominy Mitchell. That started my brain down a Rabbit Hole as I thought about one day that I was at the parts counter in the Dealership when a high school kid who had just washed a used 69 Camaro SS 396 in Indy Pace Car trim came flying into the high-bay, slammed on the brakes and squealed the tires. The parts manager glared at him disapprovingly as he got out, tossed the keys on his desk, smiled and said “Disc Brakes”. This caught my attention because I knew that Camaros didn’t come with disc brakes back in those days. But I looked into the cockpit and noticed the round “Disc Brakes” emblem on the brake pedal. Come to find out that disc brakes were a dealer installed option that costs about $800 bucks! That on a vehicle that had a base price of about $2700 bucks! I’m sure a new Vette would have been about the same price and it came with 4 wheel discs. FWIW; They literally had to remove the drum brakes that were installed at the factory and use a kit to swap the brakes out along with the master cylinder. Of course you could buy the kit DIY also, not sure about the price of the kit alone. As a Side-Bar; Right after I got out of high school I purchased a used V 143 Glastron Boat with an 80 Merc that had the same orange deck strips and houndstooth interior as the Indy Pace car.

Uh Oh, My @8:58 AM is awaiting for approval. I guess Hal didn’t like the two links. 😀

I went back to check out the thread of this woman named “Mel” who posts @villgecrazylady. She is a Jew and Israel hater who brags about being pro-Palestinian.

Spotted over yonder; My first and only store boughten bike. It used 4 D cell batteries for the headlamp. I love this! 😉

We snobby kids rode Schwinn bikes. All the rest of you had Western Flyers.
-
😀 And damn lucky to get them. I do remember the Western Flyer cost $40! Considered a lot in south Alabama back then.
-
When your first job pays 25 cents an hour, 40 dollars might as well be a million.

I would rather push a Western Flyer than ride a Schwinn
-
Hey, my red wagon was a Western Flyer.

Oh and in south Alabama I was defecating in the tall cotton with this bike. My cousin’s bike didn’t have a coaster brake. The back wheel was connected directly to the pedals so if it was turning so were the pedals. 😉

I’m starting to wonder if the Gaetz pick was just to get his a$$ out of the way?
-
My theory the other day Trump nominated Gaetz just to freak out the entire DOJ may have more substance than I thought. I’m sure the Trump team has backups for all the nominees, but the fact Trump came out with Bondi’s name almost immediately makes you wonder. The video clip of the CNN legal clowns saying Pam Bondi is “competent”, “dangerous” and “knows how to run a legal department” was hilarious and illustrative.
-
-
Sunny Hostin (soon to be called Overcast Hostin) was forced to read another legal note on air yesterday that included repudiating slanderous comments made by the show about Pete Hegseth and Matt Gaetz. The legal department at Comcast/NBC is getting real tired of having to babysit these stupid women.

I bet uncklo hums this song when he’s at work.

MSNBC news shows completely ignored the Jose Ibarra sentencing and the only mention was by some legal analyst who headlined his piece:
LAKEN RILEY”S KILLER NEVER STOOD A CHANCE -
That Musk fella is pretty clever. This is what all these fools get for investing billions into projects utterly dependent on politically driven taxpayer’s money.
Donald Trump’s criticism of electric vehicles looks likely to lead to the end of government subsidies for consumers who buy them, boosting Elon Musk’s Tesla by hitting its rivals with greater losses. The president-elect has said EVs would spell “complete obliteration” for the US car industry, even as adoption for the vehicles has climbed in other parts of the world, particularly China. Trump said in July when he accepted the Republican nomination that he would “end the electric vehicle ‘mandate’ on day one”, referencing proposed emissions rules that President Joe Biden’s administration had eased four months earlier. While Tesla is making money from its EVs, rivals’ losses on them have been narrowed by consumer tax credits worth up to $7,500 under Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act. “A Trump presidency would be an overall negative for the EV industry,” said Wedbush analyst Dan Ives. “However, for Tesla, we see this as a huge positive.” … “Take away the subsidies,” Musk posted in July on X, the social media site that he owns. “It will only help Tesla.” Trump’s election could also lead to swifter regulatory approval for autonomous driving technology, helping Tesla and other groups developing self-driving cars.

As goes Germany, so goes the rest of Europe.
The stupid Germans have collapsed their government and their economy. All the nasty, destructive social cancers like open borders for Islamic hordes and destruction of the nuclear and natgas industries have metastasized and now all the Europeans suffer.

Hubby wants to take me to lunch today. I have my friend’s “celebration of life” service this evening, but I have plenty of ribs in the frig that he can nosh on this evening while I’m out.
I think I have time to review the C&C before I head out.

Will Trump finally revoke J. Brennan’s security clearance?
-
Here is the New York Post article from March 18, 2022 with the list of all 51 liars who signed the Hunter Biden open letter. I want every single one of their security clearances revoked, period.
-
Yep.
long overdue.

Good morning, C&C, it’s Friday! The election is mercifully and thankfully over. We can begin transitioning away from pure politics to meatier issues. Today’s roundup has a bit of both: Matt Gaetz withdraws from the Attorney General race and Pam Bondi immediately picks up the reins; chatter about Trump’s strategy; Trump trades judges with Democrats; wild story of weaponized government against Gaetz; Tucker theory about spooks and pornography sites; turbo cancer coverup continues as drumbeat of bad news becomes a breaking dam; new French studies confirms contaminating e. coli plasmid DNA in the shots; weird DARPA grant solicitation raises questions; courageous Texas gal goes from the state’s covid jail to the state house; Casey concedes; and a pair of new ads evidence counter-revolutionary success.

On the Gaetz/Biondi nominations:
After Gaetz, Senators cannot complain about Florida’s former Attorney General’s qualifications. It pains me terrifically to say “I told you so,” but I was not surprised to see Matt Gaetz vanish from the scene just as he seemed to be getting traction. It sure looks like a lot is happening behind the scenes.
In the first example, late on Wednesday night (reportedly, at midnight), Trump closed a deal with Senate Democrats that nobody even knew was happening. The Democrats unbelievably agreed to give Trump four key federal judicial nominations. A few hours later, yesterday morning, Matt Gaetz withdrew. Since there’s so much dealmaking happening out of sight, the two events could easily be unrelated, but it makes you think.
Hmmmm….Trump is already negotiating before entering office. Sounds like Trump.
Fox described how the deal went down. Republicans have been working hard to slow or stop all judicial nominations until after Trump’s inauguration. At the same time, the Democrats have been trying to ram their woke judges through in a last-minute rush. In a very Trumplike haggle, Republicans “traded” four district court nominations to Democrats in exchange for four Circuit Court of Appeals judges reserved for Republicans.
It’s bipartisanship! Already. As I’ve said before, let the man work.
4D chess, anyone?
-
And, more on Gaetz, here’s the link (again) that describes the whole crazy story about the allegations against him. You just can’t make this stuff up.
That’s only the tip of the sordid, weaponized, corrupt iceberg. For a more complete picture (leaving off a lot that nobody knows for sure), read this thread by @Villgecrazylady on Twitter/X. No wonder Gaetz never bothers explaining what happened; where would he start? And nobody would believe it anyway.
And it’s no wonder Gaetz, who refuses to take lobbyist money, hates the Justice Department and the intelligence agencies. Maybe the most convincing fact of Gaetz’s innocence is that, even though they tried hard to screw him to the wall, they failed.
-
And speaking of weird sex stories:
In related news, during yesterday’s interview with conservative journalist and podcast host Glenn Greenwald, Tucker Carlson intriguingly mentioned that an unnamed former intelligence official confided that the intelligence agencies control major pornography and dating sites, to collect kompromat for blackmailing Americans.
What’s that saying? Don’t put anything into the ether that you don’t want seen in public?
CLIP: Tucker tells Glenn Greenwald about IC control of porn and online dating (5:09).
Buckle up, Komrade.

That is one helluva story by Glenn Greenwald. Highly recommended.

What’s that? Covid and Cancer have more in common that the letter “C”?!
The turbo cancer silence became tapping, which turned into drumbeats, which now sound like a roaring waterfall. Just this morning, New Orleans local Fox 8 ran a story headlined, “Oncologists alarmed as cancer cases rise among younger generations.”
You don’t say. /spits/ But TPTB are still trying to lay blame somewhere else, anywhere else, than the obvious.
They’ll investigate every other cause first. The first sentence above proved that Big Pharma is stronger than Big Food. Ultra-processed foods and seed oils are handy options for throwing under the bus….
The quote in the second sentence was attributed to Dr. Jonathan Mizrahi, a cancer doctor at a big Louisiana cancer center. Dr. Mizrahi observed with horror the flowering of young cancers across all socioeconomic and demographic groups — so it’s got to be something in the environment that’s happening to us.
By “young cancers,” Dr. Mizrahi explained he is seeing “more aggressive and advanced tumors in younger patients in their 20s to 40s.” More aggressive and advanced means faster. (Turbo.) Dr. Mizrahi also said these new cancers are different from cancers they’ve seen before. The new cancers don’t respond to normal treatment protocols.
I do worry about Lovely Daughter and Aggie Beau. And so many of my friends.
… But what doctors are reporting now is nothing like any kind of normal, environmentally caused cancer outbreak. What we are seeing now, what Dr. Mizrahi diagnosed as “something happening to us,” should terrify any honest public health official.
The article delivered the bad news: “A recent American Cancer Society study highlights a troubling trend: 17 types of cancer are becoming more prevalent in younger generations, with death rates also rising.”
In other words, we have never seen anything like an environmental cancer disaster that increases all types of cancers across all demographics. A catastrophe of that scale would require a reagent reaching and damaging all types of cells, throughout the body. It would require a new kind of environmental stimulant, something we’ve never before seen, which rules out ultra-processed foods and seed oils as the cause of this disaster.
And if it were the mRNA shots, we’d expect to see the populations most affected by these new cancers also being the ones most exposed to the shots through jab mandates. And that is exactly what we are seeing, since college-aged and working-age folks —younger persons— were most likely to be jabbed, and most likely to be repeatedly jabbed.
At this point, everyone knows. But the ‘experts’ are mute, baffled, useless. There’s not a bit of good news about the most ambitious vaccination scheme in human history….
Baffled! BAFFLED?! Or just in denial? Maybe fear of governmental retaliation?
-
And more Covid contamination/disease studies:
Also last week, a French scientist published a preprint study in HAL Open Science, titled “Confirmation of the Presence of Vaccine DNA in the Pfizer Anti-COVID-19 Vaccine. It became the fifth study to make the same findings. There are no studies going the other way.
In short, the paper described discovering unexpectedly high levels of e. coli plasmid DNA and oncogenic SV40 promoter DNA —from a monkey virus— in the shots, neither of which should be there, and both of which provide sufficient potential ways to connect the mRNA shots to the young cancer epidemic. Not that any sane researcher who knows what’s good for them would touch this with a forty-foot stirring pipette.
That SV40 DNA contaminant means that the recipient’s DNA is irrevocably changed. Passed on to their children.
…Horrifyingly, it would probably be better for the human race if they died faster, before they could have any kids.
Here’s the big problem. If the shots are ever linked to the catastrophic cancer disaster Dr. Mizrahi described, the response would be politically and economically devastating. That news would probably collapse many governments and global health agencies. International companies would be destroyed, if not entire industries. Careers would be permanently ended for politicians, professors, scientists, journalists, and more.
The establishment will do everything it can to stop that from happening; and it will congratulate itself for preventing chaos while doing so. It will take relentless effort to bring accountability.
I don’t know if they have enough wagons to circle, nor enough guns to protect that wagon circle.
Heads should roll. ™

I think ‘crimes against humanity’ is a fair description of the whole Wuhan Lung Rot scheme.
-
-
But now there’s a search on for a way to reverse DNA damage!
Rounding out today’s jab news, I offer this week’s new DARPA Grant Proposal Solicitation, published to Twitter/X two days ago attracting remarkably little notice. First, in DARPA’s own words, the government’s high-tech skunkworks is seeking “innovative” proposals for “rapidly” counteracting “gene editing technologies.” They call it Project Riddle, or RIDDL for short:
The paltry 120 comments were, as you would expect, one hundred percent harshly critical. DARPA must have known that would happen; the situation’s urgency must require more public exposure. On its grant website page, DARPA stated that the countermeasures are urgently needed to “serve as a rapid response to the accidental or intentional misuse of gene editing technologies.”
DARPA can’t be worrying about mRNA technologies, can they, since we have been repeatedly reassured mRNA shots are “real” vaccines and definitely not genetic therapies. So.
/snip
Even on its face, without any conspiracy thinking, the proposal makes a lot of sense. Bioweapons are weapons of mass destruction that any billionaire can access. If anything, DARPA is a decade behind the curve. In fact, the most ironic thing about this is DARPA’s late but welcome arrival to the party. But since they haven’t seemed concerned about stopping rogue gene editing till now, one wonders, what’s changed?

I’m hearing some senators told Gaetz they’d vote to nominate him as long as he wouldn’t go after dktr faucinstein.
the hell?
the man who I belive worked with communist China to unleash unspeakable misery on millions and millions of people worldwide.
If true, resign senators.
your scumbaggery has penetrated the depths of Dante’s Inferno and redemption appears not nigh for you. -
Forget all the so called experts explanations why Trump won. I have discovered the NUMBAH WAN reason why. Quite the secret weapon.

I decided we needed at least one brunette for this Friday.
Israel needs more women like this.
Sporting a skin-tight tank top, combat pants, drop thigh holster and swinging ponytail, Orin Julie is a dead ringer for guns a-blazing video game heroine Lara Croft.
Emerging from a tunnel dug by the Hezbollah terror group, Julie poses for her army of fans on social media, an Israeli flag tied around her neck whipping in the wind behind her. A large tattoo on her forearm of a military-issued AR15 intertwined with the image of rose stands in stark contrast to her immaculately manicured nails.
Orin Julie Instagram Page here.
“Israel needs more guns on the streets,” the 28-year-old influencer and gun rights activist tells World Israel News unapologetically.
“I’m a realist. There are terror attacks here. I want the ability to protect myself and those who are standing next to me. Since it’s impossible to put a cop on every street corner, I want to multiply the power of the police and the army.”

America and Israel Alone in the World.
In case you were wondering why, click on the link below to see the 124 nations in the world that signed the UN treaty titled The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court between 1999 and 2002.
Notice the paragons of liberty and freedom – United Kingdom, Canada, New Zealand and Australia – signed it. These were supposed to be our close allies in the Anglo-American pact. Sheesh.

Inflation in Argentina stood at 25.5% when Milei came into office on December 10th last year. Since then:
January: 20.6%
February: 13.9%
March: 11%
April : 8 ,8%
May: 4.2%
June: 4.6%
July: 4%
August: 4.2%
September: 3.5%
The figure for October just came in – 2.7%
-
Milei slashed inflation by 90% by slashing the government. Imagine what our economy will do when Musk and Ramaswamy take the meat ax to our governmental bloat. . . .

Wow!

For those interested, the link at Tedtams 12:11 is the one I tried to post this morning. It’s worth the read, even if just to know what theories are out there.

Matt Gaetz resigned the 118th congress last week. He won his race to the 119th congress on 05Nov. He is still eligible to be a congress rep from Fla. Trump outed for all to see those senators who were not going to cooperate with him by virtue of Gaetz nomination to AG. Gaetz agreed to the plan, knowing that he was still going to be a Rep.
The war against the Deep State and the GOPeeeeeeeee is on like Donkey Kong. -
Is there any recent news about mharper? I hope she has help at home, as we know she has many kitty mouths to feed as well as taking care of herself. She is in our prayers.

I just got back from my friend’s wake. I knew he was a character, but there were stories told…
I started crying a bit when the Marines started out with their military honors, and then the vets did theirs. I tell ya’, I know those two Marines were there doing something gentle and nice, but they exuded that “don’t mess with me” aura, too.

Did Mitch McConnel (GOPeeee KY) glitch again?
Why is his opinion relevant at this point?-
Wow, this man needs to go back home to Kentucky. It was stunning and sad. Stop putting this man in situations in which he humiliates himself. Even I feel sorry for him.

I fell for this. The videos are clips from year(s) old appearances by
Mitch McConnell. Nothing new here.

I really am going to stop making jokes about what Elon should do as, for instance, buying MSNBC when it spins off and Comcast begs somebody to please buy it. I was just kidding, Elon.

I gotta get up early in the morning, so I can go with Hubby to the Crockett car show and craft show. I’m Santa Claus hunting tomorrow.
