Cancer-stricken Connecticut grandma who pushed for Vermont to expand ‘assisted suicide’ to out-of-state residents finally receives LETHAL medication after years-long fight

  •     Lynda Bluestein, 76, who had terminal cancer, ended her life in Vermont on Thursday and her husband described it as ‘comfortable and peaceful’ 
  •     Her last words were ‘I’m so happy I don’t have to do this (suffer) anymore,’ her husband Paul wrote in an email to the group Compassion & Choices
  •     The organization filed a lawsuit against Vermont in 2022 on behalf of Bluestein, of Bridgeport, Connecticut, and Diana Barnard, a physician from Middlebury

Over 200 terminally-ill people have chosen to receive life-ending drugs in Vermont in the past decade since the state legalized assisted suicide in 2013.

A new report by the Vermont Department of Health revealed that 203 patients chose to ‘die with dignity’ between May 2013 and June 2023.

In May 2013, the Vermont General Assembly passed Act 39, which allows capable, terminally ill adult patients to request and obtain a prescription for life-ending medication to hasten their death. Participation by patients and doctors is entirely voluntary.

I remember Sarah Palin calling Obamacare out for “death panels”.   She was right.

When will this “mercy” become applied to the frail old people, the chronically ill, “defectives” at birth, and the hopeless drug addicts?

When will the wacko Left get to apply it to “the deplorables”?

Nice to know I have this as an option when I run out of money and become a drag on “society”!

Can anyone spell “slippery slope”?

What today is “voluntary” is tomorrows’ “mandatory”!

Remember the movie “Soylent Green”?  Strangely prophetic!

GOVERNACIDE: How many killed by the US policy in Ukraine

Ukrainian Post-Mortems Starting to Appear
4 January 2024 by Larry Johnson 

*** begin quote ***

Clark, who served previously in the British Army, didn’t learn a damn thing during his time in Iraq and Afghanistan. He ain’t fighting goat herders and camel jockeys. (Come to think of it, those camel jockeys kicked Western ass.) He continues, like many other delusional Western analysts, to insist the current state of the war is a stalemate. How is it a stalemate when Russia is outproducing Ukraine and all of the NATO countries in tanks, artillery shells and drones and is building up its standing Army to the tune of 42,000 men per month? While Putin’s war machine is on a roll, Ukraine can’t even come up with a workable plan to conscript new cannon fodder. Word to Clark, this ain’t a stalemate bud.

*** end quote ***

It would be nice if “We, The Sheeple” could get an honest post mortem on US foreign policy,

Not the word salad of speeches, but an inventory of what the policy “cost” in innocent lives.  Who knew what and when would also be useful.  As well as the details around the US / UK sabotage of the 2014 peace agreement.

All those found “guilty” of malfeasance or stupidity should be sentenced to work in the Post Office in Alaska far from the public legislative venues where they could do as little harm as possible.

Argh!

TECHNOLOGY: Drones become the future of warfare?

Ukraine has seen the most intensive use of drones in the history of warfare

  •     Sergey Panashchuk spoke to operators deep underground on the frontlines

I could not ever imagine that 30 years later, I would be sitting in a bunker and watching a similar picture, and both the bunker and the picture would be as real as it gets.

Our bunker is just a mile from the frontline, and it is well hidden underground. It can probably survive a direct hit from a 500-kilo KAB [Russian air-guided bomb]; no one would want to check if that is true, of course. But chances are high, as Russians constantly use their air sovereignty and KAB’s as the last argument, up to 10 times a day.

I am a guest here, but the bunker is a temporary home for four army men. It is equipped with four bunk beds, Starlink, boxes with ammunition, and food.

An operator sits at the table and monitors online streaming from the drones. Casually clicking the mouse and choosing one live stream over another. Another two soldiers are playing backgammon. The fourth is cleaning his AK rifle.

‘Look guys, that might be interesting!’ calls the operator. All of us are glued to the screen. A drone detected a group of four Russian soldiers.

*** end quote ***

I worry what happens when this “technology” comes to the criminals (i.e., drug gangs; street thugs; other gangs like Gooferment politicians and bureaucrats).

It’s just a matter of time.

How will “We, The Sheeple” respond?

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Time to shut down the FBI

The FBI-Tainted Whitmer ‘Kidnap Plot’ You’ve Heard Next to Nothing About
By Julie Kelly, RealClearInvestigations
January 3, 2024

*** begin quote ***

In RealClearInvestigations, Julie Kelly reports how a much-hyped, supposedly white-supremacist “plot” to kidnap Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan has been exposed as more like a broad conspiracy by law enforcement to entrap Americans with unpopular political views.

Highlights:

  •     Details revealed during largely successful appeals by defendants – proceedings mostly ignored by national media – make the operation sound like something out of an over-the-top Hollywood script. 
  •     Public defenders have identified at least 12 FBI informants and three undercover FBI agents managed by numerous field offices.
  •     The plot line features secretive FBI cash payouts; drug parties; a wife-beating FBI investigator; a career felon turned bureau asset and later accused as a “double agent” – all wrapped up with a dramatic FBI takedown scene at the end.
  •     FBI informants met with their targets to brainstorm how to blow up a bridge outside Whitmer’s summer cottage; kill her security detail; take her to a nearby boat launch; and perhaps bring her across Lake Michigan to Wisconsin for a “citizen’s trial” over her COVID-19 lockdowns.
  •     The reported plot mastermind was not, as originally portrayed by prosecutors, a bigoted extremist, but a homeless man, dubbed “Captain Autism,” living in the dilapidated basement of a vacuum repair shop with no running water or toilet.
  •     A 2020 protest at the Michigan state Capitol in Lansing appeared to presage FBI tactics during the Jan. 6 Capitol siege, with similar optics. The head of the Detroit FBI field office was promoted to run the Washington, D.C., FBI field office three months before the protest — the episode three years ago today that lives on as a cudgel for President Biden and the left to attack Donald Trump.

*** end quote ***

Another TLA (Three Letter Agency) that is out of control and evidence that the whole agency needs to be shut down.

What else can one say about it. 

Promoted?  They should be fired.

Argh!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Seems like Georgia WAS stolen in 2020

BIG NEWS! Catherine Engelbrecht and True the Vote Win Lawsuit in Georgia Against Stacy Abrams, Marc Elias, and Fair Fight Org! (VIDEO)
by Jim Hoft Jan. 3, 2024 7:45 am585 Comments

*** begin quote ***

Several weeks ago, True the Vote published a short paper titled The Aftermath. Written as part of a broader collection of our recent work in Georgia, The Aftermath addressed the impact Georgia’s dirty voter rolls had on the 2020 election and a meeting I had in 2020 with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his team, where we discussed True the Vote’s plans to assist Georgia citizens in challenging ineligible voter records.

*** and ***

Little more than two weeks later, on January 2nd, 2021, Secretary Raffensperger and members of his staff had a call with President Trump and members of his team. On that call, President Trump asked about inaccurate voter records. Both Secretary Raffensperger and General Counsel Ryan Germany stated that they had fully evaluated the various claims of election irregularities and said without qualification there was no evidence to support them, including no problems with the voting records. This statement was knowingly false. Both men were well-aware of that falsity at the time.

*** end quote ***

So, in addition to ignore their duty to clean the voter rolls, they lied to the sitting President.

Surely, there must be some criminal statutes for them to be prosecuted under?

If not, then we are in a sinking ship of state.

ConspiracyTheories: Munitions on the Lusitania was just a “Conspiracy Theorey” for decades

It’s The Lusitania Ploy All Over Again
Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

*** begin quote ***

The Germans took the bail and sank the RMS Lusitania, and the USA used that as the excuse to finally enter World War I, which was their objective all along. Even 20 years later, the US continued to deny there were any arms on the Lusitania. However, with modern technology, divers could finally reach the Lusitania. Only in 1982, 67 years later, were divers warned that there were explosives on the Lusitania.

Finally, Archaeology.org recovered ammunition from the Lusitania, proving once and for all that the Germans were correct. What is incredibly critical to understand here is that the Lusitania was used as bait to get the Germans to sink the ship to justify entering the war.

*** end quote ***

When will “We, The Sheeple” wake up?  Like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown.  The boobs are tricked over and over by the same <synonym for excrement>!   Time after time, they run the same con on the US public.

It’s time to stop falling for it.

Look what happened when the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street were all focus on the Big Bank bailouts, the woke stuff started.  

It’s all about keeping “We, The Sheeple” divided arguing about how to arrange the deckchairs on the Titanic.

It’s the FED, the inflation, the spending, the debt, and illegal immigration.

Focus people, FOCUS. 

Argh!

BTW every time they say “Conspiracy Theory”, you know it NOT!

The Brion McClanahan ShowJan 04, 2024

in this podcast, McClanahan points out that historically there were no ballots for Lincoln to be kept off of. The parties printed there own colorful “ballots” to enable strait party line voting. And voting was public.

All things i didn’t know. And obviously others didnt either.

GOVERNACIDE: Putin sounds like the adult in the room and not targeting civilians

Pay Attention to What Vladimir Putin Says
2 January 2024 by Larry Johnson 

*** begin quote ***

Denis Shamalyuk: Comrade Supreme Commander-in-Chief, I am Sergeant Shamalyuk. I have a question. From the very beginning of the special operation, our enemies have been constantly and regularly shelling the territories near the border, killing civilians and children, destroying villages and cities. I have the following question for you. Do you think it is possible and necessary to take tougher measures against the adversary so that the thought does not even cross their minds to commit these atrocities?

Vladimir Putin: What has happened in Belgorod is of course a terrorist attack. Why? Because of what they have done under the cover of two missiles – I think it was Olkha: they fired from multiple-launch rocket systems (MLRS). You, as military people, know what MLRS is. This weapon is not selective, it hits areas. This weapon struck right in the centre of the city, where people were walking before the New Year. It was a targeted strike on the civilian population. Of course, this is a terrorist attack; there is no other way to describe it.

Should we respond in kind? Of course, we can hit squares in Kiev or any other city. But Denis, there are children walking there, mothers with strollers. I understand, because I am quite angry, too, but I want to ask you: do we need to do this, target the squares?

Denis Shamalyuk: No, I am not saying that it should [be] against the civilian population, but specifically against military infrastructure…

Vladimir Putin: That is what we are doing.

*** end quote ***

I’d have hoped that the President of the USA could say this.  Killing civilians is just wrong by any standard.  And, the US Taxpayers should be enraged that we’re paying to enable the Ukraine and Isreal to do this.

Putting maybe a killer but he seems to be an ethical one.

DISCOURAGING: Divorcée dumps 3 year old on ex

Guy Divorced 3 Years Ago Drops Off 3 Y.O. With His Ex-Wife Completely Out Of The Blue
Aura Vyšniauskaitė and Monika Pašukonytė

# – # – #

Just reacting to the story.

If someone dropped a 3 year old on your doorstep, would you react the same way?

I’d like to think that I would have the same empathy for the child, like you would for a complete stranger, hurt animal, or abandoned pet.

The child needed a safe and loving environment.  I agree call the police lest you be called a kidnapper.  But, putting any child into “the system” is just unnecessary cruelty.

I don’t have any “right answers” but I’d like to thing it could have been handled differently.
