Do You Trust the U.S. Government?

Do you trust the U.S. government? I don’t recommend it. Consider what John Kirby, a spokesman for the Pentagon, said a couple of days ago at a press briefing. “We believe,” Kirby said, that Russia is planning to stage a fake attack by Ukrainian military or intelligence forces against Russian sovereign territory, or against Russian speaking people,” in order to justify an invasion of Ukraine. Kirby had lots of details: “We believe that Russia would produce a very graphic propaganda video, which would include corpses and actors that would be depicting mourners, and images of destroyed locations, as well as military equipment,

No, what is this a trick question? That shameful State Dept 'briefing' the other day showed that the government and tne military industrial complex is trying to weasel their way into a war we have no business being in....and I 'm bloody tired of hearing all of the testosterone-challengened Neocons beating their sunken chests about saving 'democracy'.

How can one Trust this Administration? This morning, I couldn't sleep a thought kept nagging at me. The Statement given by Morgan Ortagus upon her departure from the State Department wherein. she swore fealty to the Biden Administration, struck me as strange. The fealty was not to the Constitution, the Country nor the Flag... Fealty to a corrupt administration whose many dictats are unconstitutional at best, if not Criminal, is Treasonous, is it not! Your thoughts?

Anyone who trusts the federal government is too stupid for words. Almost every public statement from a Democrat federal politician (and every federal agency) is propaganda, intended to mislead or at least obfuscate. Once is a while we may hear a semi-truthful statement from the Supreme Court, but even such statements are self-serving. We are living is dangerous times. We have no President of the United States. Harris is dumber politically than Hillary Clinton. We don't know who in the White House is pulling Biden's strings. Our policies regarding Iran sound like Barack Obama. The Deep State's abuse of President Trump (which continues) is astonishing. The Jan 6 political prisoners are being abused in the DC jail and almost nothing is being done to stop it, including apparent appeasement by all but a handful of DC Republicans. The defendants' attorneys seem all but worthless, and only one federal judge seems to give a damn. These are a few telling examples.

This government has done nothing but lie since day one. Both parties do it continuously. No matter what the subject, their first impulse is to cover up, embellish or flat out lie. Never once have I heard them tell the full truth about anything. They are no different than a large corporation. Its safer to trust a known pedophile or a drug addict.

We no longer have a government as envisioned by our founders. It’s been taken over by globalist forces whose interests are personal and in no way support the goals of its people. Per the Declaration of Independence, it is our right and our duty to throw off such government and provide new guards for the future security of the nation. When do we start?

Corrupt. Lawless. Authoritarian. Dishonest. Arrogant. Self-serving. It is the antithesis of our founding principles. Evil men have created a system that is now self-perpetuating. The corruption runs so deep I honestly cannot see a way to undo it. Both sides of the aisle are complicit in their own ways. One is actively destroying the Republic, while the other is married to the status quo wherein wealth and privilege is their sole motivation. What few actual patriots that are there seem to be tilting at windmills. It is heartbreaking to witness. So many evil men with one thought and that is to destroy the greatest nation on this planet. I cannot wrap my brain around such evil.

In 1999,bombing attacks in Russia were widely attributed to Chechen terrorists. According to some historians and journalists, the bombings were false flag attacks coordinated by the Russian state security services to bring Putin into the presidency. Could history be repeating itself?

I knew better than to trust most Federal agencies, but I did have trust in the CDC, FDA, and ones that I thought were science-based. Not anymore. COVID showed me that all Federal agencies are staffed by dishonest, power-hungry bureaucrats. In addition, I no longer trust the medical establishment. They've also been lying through their teeth for the past two years.

Hell no I don't trust the government! The irony is that liberals have created exactly the type of government they railed against in the 1960s. They complained about overreach, censorship, environment and racism among other things. Now we find out they're repeating the same mistakes the fought against now that they're in charge.

Karl Rove is, once again, beating the war drums. He is ready to send 18-year-olds like my son to fight nuclear Russia over Ukraine’s border so that he and the other neocons can talk like tough guys on TV. On Jan. 28, Karl Rove shared an article on his Twitter page written by Noah Rothman attacking American populists who are opposed to sending our troops to war with Russia. My view is that Mr. Rove despises “America First.” He loves war and the global economy that all these wars prop up.
NY Doctor Proved Everyone Wrong About Hydroxychloroquine 18 replies

Many doctors around the world started using the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) early on in the COVID-19 pandemic. Among them is Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, a practicing physician in a Jewish community in Monroe, New York. He garnered national attention in March 2020 when he told radio host Sean Hannity that he’d had a near-100% success rate treating COVID-19 patients with HCQ, azithromycin and zinc sulfate for five days. “I’ve seen remarkable results; it really prevents progression of disease, and patients get better,” he said at the time

Did Hillary Clinton or the Democratic National Committee ever pay Michael Avenatti? The question isn’t exactly new. It was at least hinted at as early as May 10, 2018. That day, Mark Penn, a former advisor to President Bill Clinton, published an op-ed in The Hill newspaper. At the time, the news was filled with the rantings of Avenatti, who gained his fame and notoriety representing former porn star Stormy Daniels. Daniels was claiming she was paid to cover up an affair with Donald Trump before he was elected president. Penn’s column raised several good questions.

It’s utterly senseless. Pfizer is now asking to authorize a dangerous, outdated shot for babies and toddlers, for whom the virus does not pose a statistical risk and for a virus against which the shots have failed to show any benefit. Yet, just as taxes and death are a certainty in life, you can bank on the FDA never turning down any Pfizer request. This is where Republican governors must serve as the safety net for the people. They must actively oppose expanding the shots to the final control group against the greatest experiment on mankind. In one of the most shocking and immoral moves since the beginning of the pandemic,

Although taken for granted by millions of Americans, the choice to obtain a college degree mystifies economists. Teenagers making the first significant financial decision of their lives are paraded through prospective student tours—essentially timeshare presentations for minors—and finally make an arbitrary pick where they will spend around a quarter-million dollars of borrowed or parental money. For some, the degree results in open doors and respectable careers. For others, it’s a scam that wastes their time and money. Across the nation, colleges are losing customers because young people are wising up to the risks of credentialism-based debt.

For the first nine months of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were no officially approved outpatient treatments for combating the disease. The medical establishment expressed extreme caution regarding such treatments, and these warnings were amplified by major media hostile to President Trump, as when he touted the anti-malaria medicine hydroxychloroquine. Although an estimated 12 percent to 38 percent of prescriptions are written for FDA-approved drugs used “off-label” (including Botox and Viagra), Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, declared early on that providers should dispense only medicines proven to be safe and effective for COVID patients through “randomized, placebo-controlled trials.”

Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for "smoking kits/supplies." A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and "any illicit substance."

Aspen is hosting the National Brotherhood of Skiers, which is advertised to be “the largest black ski group in the United States.” That’s nice. Welcome to Aspen, my friends. A hearty welcome was not enough, however, for Mike Kaplan, the liberal white CEO of Aspen Skiing Company.

Kaplan instructed employees to greet the black guests “lovingly and intentionally.” He says employees ordinarily treat all guests this way but instructed them “to make an even greater effort” with the black ones. He goes on to tell employees the reason for this special effort for blacks.
