Foreigners immigrating to the US wish to live among whites.

People living in overseas foreign countries generally have this idea of America as a country full of white people of European ancestry. With that idea, they immigrate in droves as quickly as they can. Immigrants to the US wish to live among white people more than they wish to live among people of any other race, including their own. When they arrive in the US and find that it is not full of white people in every location, it is a negative feeling. If the immigrants are starting out in the economic lower class, they're likely to start out living and working among blacks. This is not a positive alternative to what they came here for.

Immigrants from overseas don't immigrate to the US in order to be in a place just like their old country, full of people who look like them, subject to institutions that operate like the ones in their old country. They immigrate to be among whites. They came here to live among whites, work among whites and send their children to school with white teachers and classmates.

With that said, take note that I am speaking specifically of overseas foreigners. Immigrants from Mexico in the last twenty years appear to not be trying to live among whites, but rather appear to be attempting to displace and replace whites.

Western Civilization is the paragon of human civilization. Western Civilization is responsible for the automobile, flight, space exploration, the end of mass slavery (at least in Western civilized nations), the rise of modern medicine, long distance communication, deep sea exploration and most other great advances in arts, philosophy and science. The color of Western Civilization is white, there is no doubt about that.

There are other cultures that have made advances, the East Asian cultures for example. But there are some cultures that are responsible for nearly zero advances in almost any field or subject. African culture, for instance, is sorely lacking when it comes to positive contributions to mankind. The Middle Eastern region is only marginally better than that.

I am sorry if this hurts anyone's sensibilities, but the facts of the universe do not care about your feelings or about being politically correct. If my statement is difficult to hear, then you either need to logically and factually refute it, or otherwise begin some deep introspection to figure out why the truth causes you such heartburn.

A warrior of God, Billy Graham has passed away. America's Pastor. There will not be another like him. He was a giant among ants.

A tale of two quotes.

You must choose one:



"Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do."

-Rudy Giuliani.



"Freedom is not defined by safety. Freedom is defined by the ability of citizens to live without government interference. Government can not create a world without risks, nor would we really want to live in such a fictional place. Only a totalitarian society would even claim absolute safety as a worthy ideal, because it would require total state control over its citizens' lives."

-Ron Paul

Someone leaked contact info of everyone on Anthony Weiner's laptop!

Anthony Weiner was sentenced to a bit of prison time for sexting with an underage girl, you may have heard. His laptop is currently under FBI lock and key (LOL at FBI), and yet someone was still able to leak the contact info for every person he had on that laptop.

Maybe not everyone at the FBI is a total wanker.

Use as you see fit.

I'm not encouraging anything specific or illegal, of course.

Be right back. I gotta make a couple phone calls. Work stuff. You understand.

The Muslim hordes are approaching.

Islam has been attacking and invading for centuries. The Christian Crusades we are taught about were actually a defensive response to centuries of Muslim invasions into Europe. Today, Muslim "migration" from Africa and the Middle East are threatening the cultures of Europe.

I'm at work right now so I don't have time to pontificate on this with well thought out words.

Instead I'll leave this video here for you to see. I'm personally not prone to hyperbole or drama, but I do believe that video gets it right. Pay special attention to when the Muslim man is telling the German that Muslims will move into Europe and outbreed the Germans. This is the plan. The invasion has started. Unfortunately, we also have our governments to battle against because they are complicit. Our governments are facilitating this invasion, and if you protest, you'll be labeled a racist xenophobe. In the UK, you may actually be jailed for speaking against the Islamic invasion.

Deus Vult.

"Deus Vult" is Latin for "God wills it". It's a Christian motto usually associated with the Crusades, mostly the "Prince's Crusade in the late 11th century.

It was said to be a greeting and also a rallying cry used by the Christian Crusaders, including the Knights Templar, during battles with Muslim armies.

After hearing that, wouldn't you like to find a way to work "Deus Vult" into your vernacular? If not, then you might need to do some introspection.

Bracken's Question: What happens when nothing happens?

With all of the recent news, now we see that a real live coup d'etat was attempted by the Deep State to subvert the ability of The People to elect a representative. And of course, a bunch of heads are supposed to roll and things are supposed to change.

But...

What happens when nothing happens?

Trump is unable to extend friendship to Russia, thanks to the left.

Just some thoughts:

Do they want WWIII with Russia? Trump had always intended to extend an olive branch to Russia, because why in the world would you not want the two biggest kids on the block to be friends? China is the THIRD most powerful military in the world, according to my own professional (post-professional?) opinion, with the US and Russia as number one and two, respectively.

So again, why not be friends? Thanks to the fictitious "Russia-gate" investigation, Trump is unable to gain much traction in his peace endeavors with Russia. The left screams about his attempts being proof that he is in bed with Putin.

But where was this screaming when Hillary offered the Russians a novelty toy "reset" button? Does anyone remember Hillary's big "Russian Reset" with her counterpart, the Russian Foreign Minister? Was she in bed with the Russians then?

Can someone get Aesop an Uber to the DOJ HQ?

Someone let Jeff Sessions know he can get started on this list of violations for the minions in the Deep State.

Ready, go! Anytime.

Aesop on the memo.

Here is Aesop's thoughts on the memo.

Please pay special attention to the research he provides on the actual laws that were broken. Now that the memo is out, THAT stuff is what needs to come to the forefront.

People v. Cook

People v. Cook

Knowingly providing false or misleading information in attempt to secure a warrant is illegal.

Has the rule of law been restored? We shall find out.

My explanation, analysis, thoughts on "the memo".

The memo.

The memo that we received is actually six pages instead of four, because we also received an additional two pages, in which Donald McGahn II, Counsel to the President, notifies Representative Devin Nunes, the Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), that the President and the White House (WH) attorneys and staff have taken into consideration all aspects of national security and public interest in making the decision to declassify the memo. The President has the Constitutional authority to declassify and release intelligence information when public interest in release outweighs the risk to security. The WH declassified the memo, but chose to turn it back over to the HPSCI for release, which was done quickly. The reason for turning it over to the HPSCI was to ensure that proper separation of powers was observed. The WH is making clear that they are not the driving force behind this. The People's representatives on the HPSCI are.

McGahn also provides citation that the actions taken by the WH and HPSCI have precedence in previous Presidential administrations, including the 0bama Administration and both Bush Administrations. In other words, while the circumstances are "extraordinary", the actions taken are in keeping with standard policies and procedures.

The last point I'll make about the first two pages written by McGahn is that there is still oversight processes continuing in regards to the information contained in the memo. Basically, the investigation is still moving. This memo's release was not the end goal.

Scrolling to page one of four, we see at the top where the classification markings have been crossed out, as per policy for declassified documents. The memo was previously classified as Top Secret (TS), with a NOFORN caveat. NOFORN means that any access by individuals of foreign countries or agencies is prohibited. During my time in the intelligence community, I held a TS security clearance. You can also see that the memo was officially declassified by the WH today, February 2, 2018.

The HPSCI itself has been investigating the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) and Department of Justice (DOJ). The purpose of the memo is to briefly describe some of the major details that have come out during the investigation. Once members of the House of Representatives (House) saw the memo, Republicans, including Representative Matt Gaetz, immediately called for release, while Democrats immediately questioned the accuracy of it and demanded it remain classified. Gaetz amassed a large number of signatures on his letter calling for release.

The DOJ and FBI were specifically being investigated for skirting legal requirements when applying for Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants to conduct surveillance operations against what we in the US intelligence community (USI) refer to as "US persons". US Persons are heavily protected by law from being collected against by USI. The FISA court (FISC) apparently granted an initial warrant and three renewals for the FBI to collect intelligence against a US person, that being a high level volunteer associate on the Trump Campaign named Carter Page. Carter Page wasn't a phone operator or a coffee boy. He had access to Trump. Specifically, the FBI did "wiretap" Carter Page, and collected other types of electronic intelligence. It is my formerly professional opinion that the FBI was able to observe or listen to his emails, texts, phone calls and may have possibly "tailed" him and recorded conversations he had in the open, however innocuous they might have been.

The warrant requests were signed three times by James Comey and once by Andrew McCabe. Additionally, the applications were signed by the Deputy Attorney General (DAG) at the time. All four were signed by either Sally Yates, Dana Boente or Rod Rosenstein, whomever was DAG. The four applications were spaced 90 days apart.

The problems start popping up when the memo explains the FISA warrants and applications for those warrants are classified, and therefore the integrity of the FISA process depends heavily on the integrity of those submitting the requests. All information relevant to the requested warrant must be shown to the FISC, including info that may be beneficial to the target of the warrant. The memo makes it clear that this did not happen in any of the four applications. The memo goes on to provide the details the HPSCI believes should have been presented to the FISC.

1. Former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele, working for a private intelligence company called Fusion GPS (officially a "US person" itself due to being an American company) had compiled a "dossier" on Donald Trump. This dossier was the essential material presented to the FISC in order to obtain the warrant to collect intelligence against Carter Page. The funding for the dossier work was provided by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) via Fusion GPS and the Perkins Coie law firm. Steele was specifically paid to collect "derogatory information" on Trump's "ties to Russia". This dossier was the one that had Trump urinating on beds and Russian prostitutes.

At least $160,000 was paid to Steele. The money appears to have originated with the DNC and Clinton Campaign, then was paid to Perkins Coie representing Clinton and the DNC, which then paid Glenn Simpson at Fusion GPS, who then paid Chris Steele for the dossier work. None of the financial information you see here, nor the blatant political nature of the activities, were ever disclosed to the FISC, despite the fact that FBI and DOJ officials were aware from the start.

2. The warrant application also depends heavily on a Yahoo News article to corroborate the dossier. The problem with this is that the Yahoo article written by Michael Isikoff about Carter Page's travel to Moscow, was written with info leaked by Steele himself. You can not leak information to a reporter, and then use the article the reporter writes to back up the original information. It's all the same info from the same source. This was all known from the start after Steele and Perkins Coie were present at an event where it was mentioned.

During my time as an intelligence professional, I was trained and had experience in spotting, assessing, managing, cultivating and vetting potential intelligence sources. In my opinion, Chris Steele was a highly unsuitable source due to his numerous open contacts with news outlets. A source must be assessed for good placement, access, motivation, suitability, susceptibility and accessibility. I believe that Steele fails mightily on those, most notably to me on motivation and suitability. I could say his use as a source demonstrates poor judgment by his handlers, but I think his use as a source was not due to his ability to obtain accurate intelligence, but more so by his ability to provide information that said what his handlers wanted it to say, regardless of the truth.

3. Even after Steele was officially terminated as a FBI source, he maintained close contact with Associate DAG Bruce Ohr. During conversations with Ohr, it was made known that Steele's main goal was preventing a Trump Presidency, and he claimed to be "desperate" to prevent Trump's election victory. Once again, Steele's political bias was never made known to the FISC. Ohr, who worked closely with the DAG, was also married to a Fusion GPS employee who was paid to collect opposition research on Trump by the DNC and Clinton Campaign.

4. Apparently the FBI had only begun to attempt corroboration of the dossier when it was first presented to the FISC. Obviously such a serious document should have been fully and impartially vetted for accuracy long before presentation to the FISC when the goal is collecting intelligence against a US person. The FBI failed at that requirement. Even though the dossier was unverified, James Comey chose to brief President Trump on it's content as though it was a verified file. Andrew McCabe later testified that no warrant would have ever been sought or obtained without the unverified information in the dossier. In other words, without this fictitious and politically motivated dossier, there is no Russian collusion investigation.

5. During the investigation into the dossier, it was discovered that FBI special agent Peter Strzok and his mistress, FBI attorney Lisa Page (no relation to Carter Page) demonstrated extreme anti-Trump bias during Strzok's work on  part of the Russian collusion investigation. Text messages between them show major bias in favor of Hillary Clinton. Agent Strzok also had been assigned to the earlier Clinton investigation that ultimately "cleared" her of wrongdoing. Strzok and Lisa Page had also talked with someone they referred to as "Andy" about an "insurance policy" in case Trump was elected. I suspect that "Andy" is Andrew McCabe.

In conclusion, it is my opinion that the DOJ, FBI and the DNC colluded and conspired to rig a national presidential election in favor of Hillary Clinton, and paid a former foreign intelligence agent (if there is such a thing as a "former" intelligence agent) to assist. I suspected this was the case, as many Americans did. The difference here is that we have it documented by the People's representatives and released for public viewing.

I'm not sure what consequences will come of this, if any, but please continue preparing for what may come. The Deep State is actively working to increase it's power and influence. This is a war. Act accordingly.

Thanks for reading. Please facilitate wide dissemination.

The Memo has been released!

The highly anticipated four page memo from the House Intelligence Committee has finally been released, and once I've read it and had a good think, I'll post up my own explanation/analysis, to go with the thousands of others you'll likely see. Thanks in advance to any of you who choose to add mine to your reading list.

The House Intelligence Committee Memo.

Will post a little later, as promised.

Two from Aesop for wide dissemination, please.

1. One, two, three, four, I declare a meme war...

2. But... WHY is the rum gone?


The first one will put you in your place, the second is for you to GO and DO.

Please, widely disseminate both.

25 quotes from the great Thomas Sowell.

Another article from Intellectual Takeout, this time you get a list of quotes from the great economist and social philosopher, Thomas Sowell.

My favorite from Sowell:

"What multiculturalism boils down to is that you can praise any culture in the world except Western culture, and you can not blame any culture in the world except Western culture."

Where have all the children gone?

I am not personally familiar enough with the website Intellectual Takeout, but when I opened the page, Thomas Sowell was on the front. Good omen, I say.

Anyway, The Gray Mother sent me this article from Intellectual Takeout via text message. Short but good.

Basically, let your kids have FREE TIME to JUST PLAY. And that means play OUTSIDE. Kids needs to run outside and do outside things to grow and learn. They need those sensory connections to be made early. I believe it's nearly impossible to make them later in life if there is no foundation.

The Gray children, that is, my three kids, are currently six, two and two. Yeah, twins. Anyway, they play outside on our rural property and sometimes we aren't even out there with them. We check on them, but they're allowed and encouraged to run outside and play.

Let your kids be little and be outside.
