New Los Angeles DA Snubs Staff, Meets With BLM, Will Implement Radical Progressive Agenda

I have to run, but here’s something on the Insurrection Act. No time to read it, tell me what it says

@ coldwarrior:
No. The dominion software had a built in algorithm to switch and create votes for Biden, but the margin was not big enough to cover the gap. That’s why Eric Coomer showed up to “reset” the machines and in the urban democrats precincts they had to cheat so obviously to cover the spread. The blatant mass voter fraud was done because they had to react due to their incompetence of not expecting so many people voting for Trump.
Trump gave several speeches– did anyone see them on MSM? Me neither. It is clear he is not vacating and from the pronouncements of his team they do have evidence not made fully public and yet to be presented. The corruption is so deep despite the obvious fraud, the bad actors in this don’t care as long as they are not exposed and they can continue with their graft.
Frankfurt was just one CIA server farm hit– there were other targets. The evidence reveals collaboration between foreign agencies and US federal personnel to fraudulently influence, and steal, the US election. There are already people involved in the coup who have flipped and are going to give testimony (to avoid prosecution) regarding same. Was the evidence is provided, the insurrection act will be invoked– arrests and seizure of assets with military tribunals for those accused.
Perhaps I am wrong. But I do not believe the USSC nor state legislatures have the backbone to stand up to the global criminal cartels. Insurrection act would provide the means and speed to ensure the creatures do not slither back into the swamp and make examples of those believing they are above laws and free elections.

You buying that story? I hadn’t heard that it was a CIA farm, but I did see some conversation that Haspel sustained an injury of some sort so I wondered what the supposed connection was.
@ eaglesoars:
Perhaps it is misdirection, but from my source who still has contacts in the SFG community it happened though German KSK may have also been involved. Powell mentioned this a week ago as well.
@ Buckeye Abroad:
If it did happen – which I seriously doubt – am I correct in assuming that it had to be on internationally recognized American soil? And what U.S. asset raids the freaking CIA? The story as I heard it originally was that it was a Scytl farm on a U.S. military base. Which made zero sense to me.
And another Truth Bomb FireOf all the positive Covid tests of the 9,000+ students at Cambridge University tested in the week to 6 December, EVERY SINGLE ONE was found to be a False Positive after a second test. That’s not conjecture, that’s Cambridge’s own data.

And a little background on the virus
Since “the Virus” has never been isolated, purified, and extracted from the bio-chemical soup in which scientists claim to have found it; since, that is, COVID-19 has never been identified with the exactness and rigor demanded by the scientific method, it’s anyone’s guess as to what would be included in an alleged vaccine.
That COVID has never been scientifically determined is borne out by two indisputable facts:
(1)The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention itself concedes, way down on the 39th page of its 59 page report—“CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel”—that the Virus’s existence has not been proven.
Of course, the report doesn’t say this in so many words. What it does say, within a section with the title, “Performance Characteristics,” is that “no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available [.]”
.
.
Jon Rappoport is an investigative journalist who has been writing on epidemics and pandemics for about 35 years. In 2014, during the Ebola virus scare, Rappoport, while quoting Mullis’s own declaration regarding his invention, noted the flaws of the PCR test. He asked:
“Is the sample taken from the patient actually a virus or a piece of a virus? Or is it just an irrelevant piece of debris?”
He also noted that the “test is based on the amplification of a tiny, tiny speck of genetic material taken from a patient—blowing it up millions of times until it can be observed and analyzed.”
The significance of this can’t be overstated. It requires “millions and millions” of a virus—it requires, that is to say, quantification—to determine whether a person is sick, or will become sick. Yet, as Karry Mullis unequivocally stated, his PCR test precludes quantification.
And, of course, not long ago, even that dastardly right-wing publication known as The New York Times revealed that the PCR test has a false-positive rate as high as 90%! This is due to the fact that it is almost always administered according to the CDC’s recommendation that it be run through an excessively large number of cycles that, as none other than the sainted Dr. Fauci himself acknowledged, is guaranteed to deliver a false-positive result (“dead nucleotides”).

Researchers identify a new personality construct that describes the tendency to see oneself as a victim
The researchers call it the Tendency for Interpersonal Victimhood (TIV), which they define as “an ongoing feeling that the self is a victim, which is generalized across many kinds of relationships.”
An initial three studies established the TIV as a consistent and stable trait that involves four dimensions: moral elitism, a lack of empathy, the need for recognition, and rumination.

Of course, that presumes that the official vote count reflects “the will of the voters.”
The very first time the Insurrection Act was actually invoked was a year later in 1808, when American merchant ships in the Great Lakes flouted Jefferson’s trade embargo with the British. In response, Jefferson accused the rogue traders of “forming insurrections against the authority of the laws of the United States” and authorized the military to take action.
That authority is now found in Section 253 of Title 10 of the U.S. Code, which gives the president the right to take military action within a state when “any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law, and the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection.”
The Insurrection Act was last invoked in 1992 under President George H.W. Bush, after Peter Wilson, then-governor of California, requested help to quell widespread riots after four police officers charged in the beating of Rodney King were acquitted.

ST. LOUIS — A judge on Thursday cited improper fundraising emails by Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner’s campaign in disqualifying Garden and her office from prosecuting a gun case against Mark McCloskey, who defended himself by pointing a rifle at rioters attempt to storm his St. Louis home in June.
Circuit Judge Thomas Clark II cited two fundraising emails that Gardner’s reelection campaign sent in response to political attacks before and after she charged Mark and Patricia McCloskey with felony gun crimes in July. The judge said the email raised the appearance that Gardner “initiated a criminal prosecution for political purposes.”

the nasopharangeal swabs that we are using now test for covid, flu A, and flu B at the same time. these are your standard flu swabs.
there are two types, a rapid PCR, done in one hour, and a send out that takes 4 days. guess which is more accurate?
so, the patient presents at the ER for something like abdominal pain without any respiratory symptoms at all. before they can be admitted for their choli or appy, they are rapid swabbed. false positives be damned! if they are positive without symptoms, they are a covid patient.
now mind you, we have some very sick folks with covid (and a bunch of comorbidities) admitted to inpatient. but the question is, is this worse than the normal case load for a bad flu season? my guess is not.
anecdotal…i had a guy who is an ex fx with pins for a shattered ankle and tibia, he was swabbed and popped positive, not one symptom at all and they aren’t going to bother re-testing him, meanwhile…another who has real respiratory issues / fever / elevated white count / 4l nasal canula O2/ infiltrates in the right lower lobe who they have tested 3 times in 5 days and keeps coming back negative…the send out came back negative too…and they swabbed him AGAIN today PCR.
this would never occur during the normal flu season. it would be one swab and done.

They were built to boil over like a Karen in a mosh pit.
Well, a technical post.
I have a great computer I bought for about $80 a few years ago. Dual processors at 3ghz so quite fast. Reason it was so cheap was it was refurbished and an ex corporate office computer.
Only had a 80GB hard drive and windows 7.
Cloned the original drive to a 2TB hard drive and did the free upgrade to windows 10 and it became a very nice machine.
Last Sunday hard drive decided to die…..
No problem you may say, just restore the computer back to factory using the original hard drive and off we go again!
Um original computer was windows 7 So how do I get windows 10 back as the free upgrade expired years ago. I had no product key for windows 10.
Took four days and lots of naughty words.
You would not believe how fucking sneaky Microsoft is.
Eventually after days of trying to repair the failed drive and messing around with the original drive ( windows 7 ) I I almost threw the thing in the dumpster.
Finally I connected a fresh, virgin, unformatted drive to my computer and ran the windows 10 recovery thingy from a USB drive.
Took a couple of hours and windows 10 installed a clean system on my fresh drive. But what about the activation code, the product sticky thing I never had because I did a free upgrade from Win 7 to Win 10?
Windows 10 that was on my computer stored the magic code in the computer BIOS chip…..
Cool from the aspect that I can re-load windows on it anytime I want because it was previously on this hardware.
Bad because Microsoft tagged my hardware with a unique code. Not my disks but the computer.

It’s all about them feeling good about themselves and being happy. Not all MTD takes the form you saw, but there will always be a bogeyman they oppose to be moral, the purpose of life is to feel good about yourself (therapeutic) and ‘god’ is a freaking hippy.

FWIW…the other day FauxChi claimed the brother of his daughter’s boyfriend died of C-19, a perfectly healthy guy in his 30s.
Okay, it took me literally 5 mins to fact check Fauci’s claim. The poor guy is being used for Fauci’s agenda. He had several complications, including an enlarged heart. He tested *negative* for COVID-19. Fauci is a serial liar. This should surprise nobody.

worth a read
You may be surprised to learn that of the trio of long-awaited coronavirus vaccines, the most promising, Moderna’s mRNA-1273, which reported a 94.5 percent efficacy rate on November 16, had been designed by January 13. This was just two days after the genetic sequence had been made public in an act of scientific and humanitarian generosity that resulted in China’s Yong-Zhen Zhang’s being temporarily forced out of his lab. In Massachusetts, the Moderna vaccine design took all of one weekend.
.
.
as early as July the MIT Technology Review reported that a group of 70 scientists in the orbit of Harvard and MIT, including “celebrity geneticist” George Church, were taking a totally DIY nasal-spray vaccine, never even intended to be tested, and developed by a personal genomics entrepreneur named Preston Estep (also the author of a self-help-slash-life-extension book called The Mindspan Diet). China began administering a vaccine to its military in June. Russia approved its version in August.

I’ve been remiss is letting the story about Zuckerberg’s money via a non-profit Center for Tech and Civic Life influencing the elections get away from me. I asked around for a definitive source to get started and was directed here.
https://www.lifezette.com/2020/12/private-money-and-public-malfeasance-turned-wisconsins-election-into-a-total-sham/
Salient points:
Zuckerberg donated a whopping $350 million to the Center for Tech and Civic Life, a formerly obscure nonprofit founded and run by Democrat activists that had never previously spent more than $1.1 million in a single year
.
.
Milwaukee was one of the six Democrat-leaning jurisdictions in Wisconsin that received more than $6 million in CTCL grants. These grants, which paid the salaries of election workers in addition to financing purchases of election equipment, dictated the way elections were conducted down to the most minute details, such as specifying the number of polling places and ballot drop boxes available to voters.
.
.
Accepting private monies for the purpose of administering elections is itself a violation of Wisconsin’s election code, but that is far from the only law broken as part of this heist.
.
.
In fact, almost all of the provisions required as conditions of the CTCL grants ran afoul of Wisconsin law in some way, which is why the same practices were not generally followed by cities and counties that did not receive CTCL funding.
It’s not clear to me where else these grants were distributed
I need a break. If I hear of anything, I’ll pop in, but I need a manicure and a facial.
BUT, if you’re up for it, the amicus filed by Citizen’s United is one the most beautifully written explanations of the case you will read and you don’t have to be a lawyer to ‘get it’. Not long either, start at Summary of the Argument, page 7, maybe 10 pgs total.

SCOTUS has denied the Texas lawsuit
https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/121120zr_p860.pdf
@ eaglesoars:
The entire statement
TEXAS V. PENNSYLVANIA, ET AL.
The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of
complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of
the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially
cognizable interest in the manner in which another State
conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed
as moot.
Statement of Justice Alito, with whom Justice Thomas joins:
In my view, we do not have discretion to deny the filing of a
bill of complaint in a case that falls within our original
jurisdiction. See Arizona v. California, 589 U. S. ___
(Feb. 24, 2020) (Thomas, J., dissenting). I would therefore
grant the motion to file the bill of complaint but would not
grant other relief, and I express no view on any other issue.

Zuckerberg has to be a criminal for this. I think he micro targeted the money too much. The election office I was at would never take money other than what was in its budget. The budget represents money from all citizens and is purposed out to serve all of them as management dictates.
I think Trump should pop Zuckerberg into jail. And come down on any election office using third party funds. Since the Chinese are involved now there should be a clear national security threat.

Well, that’s it. The Supreme Court just abrogated its responsibility to the Constitution. It is apparent that God has declared his judgment on this country and did not find 10 righteous to preserve it, as imperfect as we are, and has now turned it over to those who would destroy our freedoms and unleash evil upon it. Evil has won.

Yah. I think China can look at this as a greenlight. Sydney Powell has 4 lawsuits coming up in the Supreme Court. But I think we have gone past the Rubicon.
The problem is these judges are smaller than the scope of the fraud. They are looking to maintain their old comfortable order when the new system is one of fraud. They don’t seem to comprehend the message they are sending. It’s time to make them uncomfortable. I would hope if Trump has any tricks up his sleeve that he releases them.
There’s a twitter thread about a bunker buster being set off in Maine that killed 50,000 Chinese soldiers. A ton of people believing it.

The order of dominoes to fall should be something like.
Gop China bought
Gop Elite
ANTIFA
Judges at the local level then up.
Ric Grenell knows who the China bought GoP are
The GoP elite are the ones who weren’t in the scrimmage to support Trump.
ANTIFA is covered by the Proud Bos. Buy their gear.
Judges are another story. One can never be sure about them. One only knows when it is too late. Best to just gum up their works and slow them down. FOIA requests are a good way to start that. A solid request ties their hands for two weeks. And that of their staff. Should be plenty of fodder in the election fallout to FOIA.
The best thing a person can do is probably get into the local PTA and get the schools back on track. Get rid of the teachers unions.
I see all these companies wanting to flee California and choosing Austin, Tx. Austin, Tx is the San Francisco of Texas.
There’s a football scenario going on. The one with Lucy Van Pelt and Charlie Brown. Where she promises him she’ll tee up the football for him to kick. He falls for it over and over when she fakes him out. Then sets up her 5 cent advice booth for him.
Be Snoopy. Sopwith Camel. Flight Scarf. Down the Red Baron.
I’d focus on leadership. The Jocko Willink book The Dichotomy of Leadership I think is a great example. If you get punched in the face, take it as a lesson and come back stronger. People respect that.

Aussie Infidel gave some advice awhile back to put a face and voice into resistance. I have been reluctant to do so because it comes with a big cost to me. But I have to change my mind about that.
If a person has kids the story should be different. Kids and safety and security come first.
Energize the fabric of the constitution in everything you do. That is what the Washington Monument is there for. To remind people of the sacrifices made for freedom and how to keep it.
If you are unsure of how to proceed. The best process is to just give $1 to a homeless person and be anonymous. Don’t worry about how they spend it. Just know you made their day for a few minutes.
If they have a dog with them give them an extra $1 for the dog. 🙂

Fourth Shot. This stuff is great. line up the fifth. LOL
And on the fifth shot I pull out the Gulag Archipelago to read. Should tell you that I am single.
Judges are full of crap. They live within this wire framework and there is no good way to slap some common sense into them. Not just the Supreme Court but regular local county judges. They think they are doing some sacred duty but are in effect turning everything into crap. And they don’t know it.
They will rule on the law as written when it suits them and on the spirit of the law when it suits them. What suits them is usually their Martini lunch and not the principals of a healthy society. They prove their own worth. Which is not much.

@ darkwords:
I’m beginning to wonder about Scott. On his podcast this morning he shared with his audience that he waters down his coffee 50/50 so as to cut down on his caffeine intake. YUCK !!
I’ve always assumed that Scotty boy was a connoisseur of coffee being that he dedicates the first few minutes of every cast with an ode to the deliciousness of coffee, tipping a cup with his audience, entreating all to join him with a ‘simultaneous sip’. I always assumed that he was a connoisseur of the cuppa java. I wondered what exotic brands a wealthy man such as he began the day with ? What I never even dreamed of was that he diluted his coffee, not with a shot or two of fine brandy, but with the ol’ H2O !! ‘Really Scott ?’
He explained that at first this watered down coffee concoction tasted terrible but that he eventually got used to it. Do tell. Yuck.
After only that first sip I put down my mug having lost my desire to participate (actually I became quite adapt at clicking on the videos timer so as to completely bypass this little gag months ago, but play along). I put down my mug, stared at the monitor, shook my head and thought to myself: ‘Dude, they make 50% caffeine free coffee, don’t you know this ? WHY would you do this to yourself ?” None of my business, granted, but I will never experience the mornings ‘daily sip’ the same way again. I’m squirming in my chair right now just thinking about it again. Who the hell in their right mind drinks watered down coffee ? Myself, I prefer it on the strong side but I do get that some prefer it a little lighter, but by 50% ?
Scott my man, they DO make 50% reduced caffeine coffee ! Its easy to find, I know, I drink it.
Sure, its possible he isn’t aware of this I guess but wouldn’t you assume that an educated smart guy would at least do a Google search first (which I did) to see if there is such a product before freakin watering it down 50% ? I just couldn’t believe my ears ! Scotty my man, whats the point of being wealthy ?
As a teen my first job was an after school/evenings gig as a dishwasher at at a local restaurant. One of the ‘treats’ of the evening was when the waitress brought in the trays loaded with half full drinks glasses and cups of coffee topped off with cigarettes, cigar butts and diluted with ice cubes, soda and/or water – the smell was just as bad as the appearance. DOUBLE YUCK !!
50 years later i can still smell it, one of those odors ya just never forget.
I can only imagine how Scotts coffee looks and tastes – better him than I. But hey, who am I to judge ? Although involuntary gagging isn’t my idea of the best way to start off my day.
For those not familiar with Scotts shared morning ceremonial sipping ritual, he states that it WILL BE the best part of every participants day! Sure Scott, if you had been raised in Ethiopia I guess but …
“The best part of waking up is water in your cup’.
I don’t think so.

The President’s Constitutional Plan.
It involves two steps, or two fronts: First the Courts, then the House.
-The Trump Campaign, RNC, various state GOP Parties, third party organizations, are filing county, state, and federal lawsuits.
-The primary objective is to strategically get several ballots invalidated.
-However, a secondary objective is to publicly expose “corruption” in these cities to both STATE reps and US House and Senate Leaders. This is crucial.
-While keeping the 73 million Trump supporters engaged and working behind the scenes.
-There seems to be success in this, as two polls show 60% of the US now believe “fraud” occurred and only 49% believe Biden won. These polls have a 37-32 D:R bias.
-Keep in mind, MSM “calls” are merely “projections” of how a state voted in the popular vote. Strictly speaking, they means nothing.
-Win, or lose in court, the next step is the GOP State Legislatures (SLs) in PA, MI, WI, AZ and GA.
A Republican, not a Democracy.
-On December 14, 2020, Certified Electors from each state, cast their ballots for the President and VP. What many do not realize is they vote in their home state and their vote is sealed and NOT “counted” until January 6th. Crucial point.
-Now, the SLs [state legislatures] have the Constitutional authority (under Article II, Section 1, Clause 3 and 3 U.S. Code § 2 and § 5) to appoint their own slate of Electors, loyal to President Trump, if they deem their state’s “POPULAR VOTE IS CORRUPTED”.
-In other words, the State GOP Legislature of Georgia, for example, can “conclude that the popular vote has been corrupted” and appoint a “competing slate” of electors, loyal to President Trump. For example, 20 Biden Electors from PA & 20 for Trump.
-The precedent for this is the 1876 Election when SC, LA, FL and (1 EV from OR) each sent competing Dem and Repub Electoral votes, sealed, to the archivist in D.C.
-Keep in mind, NOTHING is “counted” yet. Another crucial point.
-On January 6, the 12th Amendment to the Constitution specifies that the “President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted.”
-That means that in the case of disputes about competing electoral slates, the President of the Senate—Vice President Pence—would appear to have the ultimate authority to decide which to accept and which to reject. This is supported by 3 U.S. Code § 15. Hence, Trump wins.
-This is a de facto check on the Electoral College, which few realize because it only happened in 1876.
-If at that point, nobody gets to 270, the 12th Amendment stipulates, “the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote.”
-Currently, Republicans have a state delegation majority with 26 (likely 30 in the new Congress) out of 50. Ergo, Trump wins.
-Prez Trump has clearly discussed and been briefed on a strategy to contest the election via Constitutional means, first through the courts and then…
…through House, saying at a Sept. 26 rally in—where else—Pennsylvania: “And I don’t want to end up in the Supreme Court and I don’t want to go back to Congress either, even though we have an advantage if we go back to Congress — does everyone understand that? I think it’s….
..26 to 22 or something because it’s counted one vote per state, so we actually have an advantage. Oh, they’re going to be thrilled to hear that.”
NO clearer indication exists that this was his plan all along.
There’s more to the thread but you get the idea. AND – this was posted almost a month ago.
I’ve also been seeing something about Nevada sending TWO slates of electors, one for Trump but I can’t found a source outside twitter, so consider unconfirmed. But it seems if it IS true, Pence gets to choose.
I’m not officially on twitter anymore, I’m just there as a shadow, I’ve deleted everything, created a new account and just read, I follow a lot of people but I have no bio and never post.
In other news, people are getting hurt in downtown DC. The Trump rally was huge, after dark Antifa came out. Proud Boys were waiting.
