The steal, this time, was so blatant that my optimistic Sagittarian self assumes it must be the final rub-in-your-face to the still complacent normies of how, unless some kind of massive correction is made, and NOW, this Republic, which assumes citizens freely choose their leaders, is done. Why optimistic? Because, especially when coupled with Trump’s announcement on 11/15/22 that he is again a candidate for U.S. President (but when; many commentators have pointed out that he didn’t actually say the word “2024” during his Mar-A-Lago speech), extreme cognitive and emotional dissonance infects us immediately when we recognize that Trump’s running again will mean NOTHING if elections continue to be stolen.
Beside, 2024? Are you kidding? At the rate this nation is dissolving, thanks to inflation (which will drive up price of everything, to the point where the trucks won’t run (and besides, aren’t they due to run out of diesel by Thanksgiving?), food won’t get to stores, energy won’t be delivered to homes in the dead of winter — all of which will lead to starvation and at the very least internal chaos, especially considering the long overrun border by cartels, thieves, traffickers, fentanyl, etc. — let’s face it: we won’t “make it” to 2024.
So . . . I presume the “white hats,” if they exist, including Trump, have something up their sleeve to remedy our seemingly impossible situation. But whatever it is, Trump warned us in his unusually low-key announcement speech, we face a difficult future in the near-term. Here’s the way Clif High parses it:

Oh, and then there’s the continuing fallout from the vax — with all sorts of diseases and debilities overtaking compromised immune systems; with “dies unexpectedly” notices in local papers on a near-daily basis.
And then there’s the long-expected global financial/political collapse, its finale likely ignited already by the sudden, total crash of the SBF/ FTX ponzi fraud.
Oh yeah, and Ukraine, Taiwan . . . U.S./NATO warmongering . . .
Meanwhile, this morning, sitting at the kitchen table with my young friend Dan, who lived here for five years and, at a precocious 31 years of age, is already beginning to show signs of actually following his own nature (and so, of course, nature is taking care of him), he mentioned that he was reading a book by Chris Hedges. “Oh yes,” I responded, beginning to rant myself. “I remember him from 2011; he came onto my radar during the Occupy Movement. Was thrilled to hear him speak — one big truth after another flowing from his extremely concerned and eloquent lips — .But then, as time went on, I realized that he was unequivocally pessimistic, and that his pessimism kills the soul. So I turned away, though he stayed on the edges of my radar . . . Then, a few years later, I noticed that Chris actually mentioned permaculture. He had visited a farm? He had spoken to someone, or read some book? Can’t remember, but he was excited. This was the very first time I had ever seen him excited, even hopeful! I assumed he had turned a corner. That there would be more. But no . . . So I turned away forever.”
“What I focus on is to know full well the evil in which we are embedded, and then, against all odds, to create a little island of regeneration, a lotus blossom inside the rotting muck. Such as our little Green Acres Permaculture Village. You know damn well that little experiments like this are already popping up all over. And that each one inspires others.”
Here’s my latest interview, from 2020:
So: if Clif is right, and if Trump is right, then these next few months, and even years, will be unimaginably difficult; and yet, given the intrepid human spirit, we WILL prevail, despite whatever global edicts the WEFFERS try to lasso us into meanwhile.
Oh wow . . . so much to chew on, try to swallow, only to throw up!
Ukraine, election fraud, SBF/FTX, Mar-A-Lago docs, Excess Deaths data . . . on and on. As Clif High put it: we are now inside “The Big Ugly” and dots are connecting all over the place, weaving thickening tangled webs that threaten to strangle what remains of our so-called “civilization.”
Let’s see . . . what shall I start with? Two gross memes? Or four versions of the 40,000 foot view? I think the former:
Yuk.

Not as obviously gross, but I’d still say double yuk . . . 
Alex, BTW, seems to be suing everybody connected to the crime he’s accused of.
Boy oh boy. Who is NOT suing who? Well, those with means sue those without. That’s how it works in our increasingly two-tiered justice system.
Okay, let’s keep going with Ukraine. How about this? The “timing” of Trump’s announcement, and how the deep state’s expectations of which foiled its FF, scheduled for the same day.

Okay, even more on Ukraine as we move higher up the 40,000 foot view:

U.S. funding “for war” heh heh. See yesterday’s post.
Okay, on to the continuously detonating SBF/FTX debacle:
If you’d like to peruse SBF’s view of the messy, at best, “ethics” of his behavior, check this out:
Okay, now read through recent history connecting Biden, etc. etc. to SBF/FTX.
Oh what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive . . .

Now to the much higher perspective. And thank goodness for it!

Returning to the nitty-gritty. Remember the raid on Mar-A-Lago? Well I just saw this tweet. (Two hours later, the news is being picked up elsewhere. But will the MSM pick up on it? Doubtful.)

But: the Jan 6 Unselect Committee has already pivoted . . . “Ignore law enforcement failures”, i.e., “failures” to find legal fault with docs they picked up from Mar-A-Lago . . .

Here’s one to chew on. A possible connection between Sidney Powell (remember her vow to “release the Kraken” after the stolen 2020 election?) and the Kraken crypto exchange . . .

Notice, Kraken crypto was started in 2011; FTX was started in 2019 (just in time for the Biden presidential campaign) . . . No such scandal has crashed the Kraken crypto exchange.

Hmmm . . . and is the recent head of the Kraken, Jesse Powell, Sidney Powell’s son?

Finally, sorry to end with a complete downer, but the murderous, genocidal Covid Con just won’t disappear, even in the midst of all this other astounding info, disinfo, misinfo!

Yep. Social Security is in trouble. What better way to render it unnecessary?
