As the world marks liberation of the Nazi concentration camps… LORD ASHCROFT recalls the forgotten heroine of the Holocaust who smuggled 2,500 ghetto children to safety in coffins, suitcases… and even a toolbox
- Irena is all but forgotten despite the fact that she saved around 2,500 children
- She died in 2008 with brief tributes to the bravery of ‘The Angel of Warsaw’

*** begin quote ***
The pretty, dark-haired young woman in a nurse’s uniform felt her heart thump inside her chest as she presented her identity papers to the Nazi soldiers guarding one of the few entrances to the Warsaw Ghetto.
It was the summer of 1942 and the truth about the Germans’ brutal genocide of the Jews was becoming horrifyingly clear. The knot in her stomach shifted slightly as the guard gruffly waved her inside. Agonisingly, she knew that if the truth of her secret mission was revealed, she would be tortured by the ruthless, sadistic SS and then shot.
She sighed with relief, but knew an even more heart-rending task lay inside the walls of the ghetto, where up to 500,000 Polish Jews had been corralled ten-to-a-room in a warren of buildings and streets in an area little larger than a square mile. There, the stench of death and disease was appalling. Thousands of half-starved people wandered around with just rags to protect them from the bitter cold.
*** end quote ***
On the anniversary of the Nazi concentration camp’s liberation, we would all take the time to read and reflect upon this human tragedy. And the heroes and heroines, who risked everything, to save babies. It’s hard to imagine having that much physical courage. Not sure if I could do it; hope I would but until you have to act will you really know.
All those, who deny that the Holocaust happened, must be repudiated and reviled as mentally ill.
I can’t imagine their mental workings that can ignore all the evidence and personal testimony.
Argh!

It’s the vaccine, stupid, it’s the vaccine; Bill Clinton said ‘it’s the economy, stupid’, I am saying ‘it’s the vaccine, stupid, it’s the vaccine’; when you hear it, know it came from me, also known as ‘Dr. Paul ‘lock them all to hell up’ Alexander’ on the speech circuits.
Dr. Paul Alexander
# – # – # – # – #
I read all the news about “sudden deaths” and wonder why we don’t have mandatory autopsies to determine a cause of death.
This is a slow moving national disaster.
We need to know “the truth”.
“Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinburg? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you are entitled to.” Colonel Jessep in A Few Good Men played by Jack Nicholson

I’d start with all the CRIMINAL illegals.
Parole all non-criminal aliens pursuant to good behavior.
Dreamers (aka, those who were brought in illegally as children) get special consideration and put on a path to citizenship (i.e., stay clean and out of trouble).
For States or other Gooferment unit that declare themselves as sanctuaries, no Federal funds for any purpose.
If they’d like to secede, let them.
When we run out of criminal illegals, then reassess the situation.

He can spin it and rationalize and lie, but the vaccines are his baby. They failed miserably and are now killing and maiming millions. The blood of vaccine victims are on his hands. This fake pandemic was never going to be like 1917. He locked down the country. He kept Fauci and Birx as his top advisors. Trump can’t weasel his way out of what he did.
Jeffrey A Tucker @jeffreyatucker
This is simply incredible. He is criticizing Florida for locking down when the truth is that 1) he ordered lockdowns nationwide, 2) blasted Georgia for being the first to open, and 3) dismissed and criticized Sweden the whole time!

I think back to the Apprentice TV show. Pre-presidential DJT at the end of one show, he sympathized with one of the contestants and reviewed how he failed and what he might have done. Then ended with the classic line: “You’re Fired!”
So too, DJT45 has to own his role in the national Covid disaster. I can sympathize that “everyone” was in a panic, he got bad advice from characters who had a hidden agenda to see him fail as well as a financial motivation for everyone getting the Jab. But, as a NYC builder, he should have been much more savvy.
So, DJT45, “You’re Fired”.
Go to the sidelines and help the country avoid future disasters.
If I were you I’d urge ending the CDC, the FDA, the FBI, the CIA, and DHS. Become this era’s Andrew Jackson.

How to unlock your “peak mind”
- “What you pay attention to, is your life.” Where do you place precious brain resources?
Amishi Jha
*** begin quote ***
There’s a shorthand that we can use to think about this. The term is VUCA: Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous. The world today feels like it’s a constant VUCA environment, but there’s another challenge that our attention faces, and why many of us feel like we’re in an attentional crisis. Frankly, the brain was designed to be lured by, for our evolutionary success and survival, certain kinds of information; threatening information novel information, self-related information, and even things that are fun and enticing. I’m talking about the ‘Attention Economy.’ Everything is being done by teams of engineers to actually capture your attention and keep it there; your attention is the product. Finally, the mind can be hijacked away by something called ‘Mental Time Travel.’ That means that our attention is not in the present moment, so when we’re thinking about the past, our attention is fully in the past, same thing with the future. About 50% of our waking moments, we aren’t in the present moment.
*** end quote ***
When I first learned about “meditation” in Comparative Non-Christian Religions — yes, I got another D — I thought it was a lot of “Barbara Streisand” <synonym for excrement>. Later, when I was in USAF survival school, we were encouraged to practice it for when we became a POW — luckily I never left Maryland. But, the lessons kept being repeated to me. “Lessons in life will be repeated until they are learned.” — ― Frank Sonnenberg, Soul Food: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life Not sure when I began to take “mindfulness” seriously; I do now.

We’re All Chicagoans Now
By Jeffrey Folks
*** begin quote ***
Much has been made about California leading the country: the Golden State is said to be America’s future, and to some extent, that is happening. But in other respects, as a nation, we’re becoming more like Chicago, and Chicago is our future unless we struggle against progressive policies.
Chicago is perhaps the most solidly Democrat city in America. It has not elected a Republican mayor since 1927. And what it has created in the past 95 years is a society that suffers from inequality, corruption, and violence on a scale beyond anything seen elsewhere in America. Chicago ought to be a case study in what not to do, but liberals like Obama and Biden seem to think it is a blueprint for success — and it is, if only for the political elite who rule over a helpless underclass.
That blueprint involves transforming citizens into clients of the State, a process that progressives have begun calling “democracy.” Progressives intend to establish a socialist totalitarian society with a permanent underclass ruled by a small elite — the so-called vanguard of the proletariat that Lenin said must rule indefinitely until workers were prepared to govern themselves, a day that never has arrived in any communist state.
*** end quote ***
It would seem that every Gooferment political entity my be reformulated into a bicameral form in which one part is elected by citizens and the other part is elected by taxpayers.
In the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee, property owners pay “property taxes” but don’t get to vote on those that spend it.
Argh!
Wasn’t “no taxation without representation” one of the catch phrases of the American Revolution.
Seems like a “national divorce” is the only solution.

Nixon Threatened to Reveal the CIA’s Involvement in the Kennedy Assassination
Shocking new Watergate-era tape reveals.
Roger Stone
Jan 11
*** begin quote ***
A stunning, long-overlooked Nixon Watergate-era tape shows Richard Nixon warning CIA Director Richard Helms that he knows of CIA involvement in the murder of John F. Kennedy- “I know who shot John.”
This shocking new tape depicts Nixon increasingly besieged by Watergate but unaware that at least four of the Watergate burglars were still on the CIA payroll at the time of the break-in, and that the CIA had thus infiltrated the burglary team. Recently declassified documents reveal that Watergate Special Prosecutor Nick Akerman was aware of both the CIA’s advance knowledge and involvement in the break-in — but said and did nothing.
Senator Howard Baker, the Republican Leader on the Senate Watergate Committee and his counsel Fred Thompson himself, a future U.S. Senator from Tennessee, like Baker, stumbled on the CIA’s deep advanced knowledge and direct involvement in the Watergate break-in. Baker and Thompson both knew that at least four of the Watergate burglars were on the CIA payroll at the time of the break-in and that through CREEP Security Director James McCord, had infiltrated the burglary team. Senate Watergate Committee Chairman Sam Ervin stoutly refused to allow Baker and the Committee Republicans including Edward J. Gurney of Florida the right to publish a Minority Report which noted this stunning information regarding the CIA.
*** end quote ***
This “revelation” just rips to the heart of the matter. It seems that the Deep State had enough dirt on everyone involved to keep the truth for the general public.
If that truth was allowed to come out, then what would have resulted?
We certainly should start to dip out the CIA and all the other parts of the Deep State by the roots NOW!

When ‘whataboutism’ is appropriate
by Jeff Jacoby The Boston Globe
January 15, 2023
*** begin quote ***
“Whataboutism,” a term much in fashion in political circles these days, is a pejorative reference to a very old and familiar argument: A’s bad behavior can’t be condemned because B engaged in bad behavior too.
The term dates back to the Cold War. It was the label given to a tactic perfected by Soviet propagandists. If Western critics blasted Moscow’s crimes in Afghanistan, the persecution of dissidents, or the horrors of the Gulag, trained Soviet flacks would respond with knee-jerk “whataboutism”: What about racism in America? What about Watergate? What about riots in US cities?
*** end quote ***
Sorry, but you can’t distract from the point being made about your bad behavior by pointing to someone else’s bad behavior.
Each “counter example” may be worthy of its own discussion, but stick to the point at hand.

How States can Undermine Biden’s Unconstitutional “Ghost Gun” Rule
Tenth Amendment Center by TJ Martinell / January 12, 2023 at 04:06PM
*** begin quote ***
Like President Trump’s bump stock ban in 2018, Biden’s new rule is unconstitutional in more ways than one. First, the Second Amendment specifically prohibits the federal government from infringing on the right to keep and bear arms. Second, this infringement doesn’t even stem from Congress passing a law. Rather, it was carried out by unelected bureaucrats in an executive branch agency who received 211,564 comments during the rulemaking process.
*** end quote ***
My Constitutional objection is to the existence of a Gooferment “agency” that is the rule maker, the prosecutor, and the executioner. We have a separation of powers to limit the powers of out-of-control politicians and bureaucrats.
In this case the ATF, but there are many many more.
If the ATF wants to make diktats, then some other entity must enforce them and adjudicate them.
Hence, the ATF, as well as the EPA, the DofAg, and others must immediately be shut down until they can be reconstituted consistent with the Constitution.

Will This Be the Year Dianne Feinstein Finally Retires?
- California Representative Katie Porter has already announced her intention to run for the seat. But the 89-year-old senator hasn’t said she’ll step down.
By Sasha Abramsky
Today 5:00 am. (Note: 2023-01Jan-13)
*** begin quote ***
Feinstein is 89 years old; she will be 91 come the 2024 election. In any reasonable world, having had a more-than-distinguished career, she would now gracefully bow out and make room for the next generation—or even the one after that. She should have done so in 2018, but insisted on staying in the race, scaring off most challengers. The one senior figure who did enter the contest was then–California Senate president pro tem Kevin de León; in the top-two-advance primary, Feinstein received about 44 percent of the vote, and de León came in second, with 12 percent. In the general election later that year, she got 54.2 percent to de León’s 45.8. Her rival went on to be elected to the Los Angeles City Council, and then self-destructed in 2022 when he was caught on tape, along with several colleagues, using racially inflammatory language to mock another council member and his adopted child.
Four years later, Feinstein is approaching 90, and, by all accounts, is a pale shadow of her former self. Last year, the San Francisco Chronicle ran a long article quoting colleagues of Feinstein’s who questioned her mental fitness to remain in office. To date, however, despite ever-louder discussions about her impaired short-term memory and her difficulty performing her senatorial duties, Feinstein has not indicated any retirement plans. Like Strom Thurmond and Robert Byrd before her—the former of whom served in the Senate until six months before his death, at the age of 100 in 2003, and the latter of whom died in office at the age of 92—at least one part of the aging senator’s psyche seems to believe that eternal membership in the Senate is some sort of birthright.
*** end quote ***
The Dead Old White Guys, in their inifinite wisdom, put an age requirement to be a Senator.
The Seventeenth Amendment took the selection power from the various State legislators and created a whole different system. (Like taking the brakes out of a car!)
So it seems time for a Consititional Amendment to repeal the Seventeenth and introduce 70 as a maximum age.
(I can’t blame the Dead Old White Guys for not envisioning the increase in life span that exceeds the human brain’s capacity in old age.)

Is the Deep State Coming After Joe Biden?
By Josh Hammer
January 13, 2023
*** begin quote ***
But obvious similarities — hence, Biden’s egregious hypocrisy stemming from his earlier attempt to seize a moral high ground — in these situations aside, there are some crucial differences. Those differences do not reflect well on the current White House occupant.
By far the most important difference is the constitutional distinction in the statuses of the two men at the center of this two-pronged saga: Donald Trump was president of the United States, while Joe Biden was merely vice president of the United States during the time that he absconded with classified documents.
*** end quote ***
Whenever the “corporate media” “breaks” an old story (i.e., this was known to them BEFORE the midterm elections), one has to ask “why now?”.
Cui Bono.
Has the Deep State selected his replacement and must “clear the decks” for their preferred candidate?
Is it Kamala, or (imho) the more likely Michelle Obama?
It has been rumored that BHO44 is running the Presidency via Susan Rice. Will this now be “simplified” by just put in Michelle in the Presidency?
Time will tell.

The school that sabotaged its standout students
by Jeff Jacoby The Boston Globe
*** begin quote ***
It is hard to overstate the outrageousness of this betrayal, but it reflects the school district’s stated determination to “produce equal outcomes for every student, without exception.” Taken literally, such a policy requires the dumbing-down of classroom expectations to the lowest common denominator. It means that high-scoring students must on no account be encouraged to excel.
*** end quote ***
“Catholic school taught them that it was their obligation, and could even be a mortal sin, if you didn’t use all your talents to the greater glory of God.” — “Chapter Fifty — Samaritans going to Jericho / Monday November 5, 1962 – Church Day + 17 (continues)” CHURCH 10●19●62 Volume 1 Page 296
I was never a willing student, but I was always “encouraged” — sometimes with physical violence — to do my best.
Now, seven decades later, I realize how important that encouragement is. We don’t have “corporal punishment” like in my day, but sometimes — to refer to the old joke about the farmer and the stubborn mule — sometimes “you need to get the student’s attention”. I like when the student is encourage to learn what they want and when they want to learn. Maybe we have lost the American ethic to “work hard and smart”.
I admire the Asian family influence over children and the importance of education. It’s a shame that black students equate being educated with “acting white”. We’ve failed them. The late Walter Williams came from the segregated Philly school system where poor performance was just unacceptable. He attributed his success to the encouragement he got then.
Bottom line for me is that the Gooferment has take over “education” and “achieved” diminishing results and an ever expanding cost.
In the tax revolt of the 1970 in the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee, I urged a “Forty Year” plan to move from the current system to a free market solution. The first 20 years was a series of 5% liberations of students from the requirement to attend a local public school with a “green voucher” to but whatever education is best for them. The second 20 years was a series of 5% reduction in the amount of those vouchers. At the end of 40 years, the problem would be solved.
But, as ususal, politics and the “teachers’ union” was impossible to overcome.

Opinions expressed in the post above are those of New Jersey 101.5 talk show host Jeff Deminski only.
*** begin quote ***
Go ahead, call me a Neanderthal. Call me unwoke. A guy who just doesn’t “get it.”
I believe in the death penalty. I don’t believe an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth per se. I don’t believe that the robber should have his hand removed. But I do believe a life for a life.
*** end quote ***
I think you’re wrong.
As gun owning pro-life pro-choice little L libertarian, I think there are THREE significant arguments against the death penalty (from weakest to strongest): (1) it’s an unConsittional cruel and unusual punishment — actually barbaric. (2) the “system” makes mistakes all the time — search “project innocence”. (3) we should never permit the government to ever kill its citizens — lest bad opinions become a “capital offense”.
As horrendous as this murder is, she must have been insane. I think it’s a contra-survival gene that in nature will eliminate itself. It punishment enough to imprison her past her reproductive years.
Since every rule has to have exceptions, there are a class of killers that are too dangerous to send to jail. A convicted murder, that kills a prison guard, is in this category.
I favor a “Devil’s Island” solution that put the convict out of sight and contact with other humans. Something like a geo-fence that if they leave their “confine”, their head explodes.
Since all life is precious and fragile, we should be extremely circumspect about killing things.
Especially when we allow the Gooferment to do it!
The DoI says “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness”.

https://futurecrunch.com/goodnews2022/
1. It was a great year for global efforts to end capital punishment. The death penalty was abolished in Malaysia, Zambia, the Central African Republic, Papua New Guinea and Equatorial Guinea, one of the world’s most authoritarian countries. More than 70% of the world’s countries have now removed the death penalty in law or in practice.

Abstract
The current report presents the case of a 76-year-old man with Parkinson’s disease (PD) who died three weeks after receiving his third COVID-19 vaccination. The patient was first vaccinated in May 2021 with the ChAdOx1 nCov-19 vector vaccine, followed by two doses of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine in July and December 2021. The family of the deceased requested an autopsy due to ambiguous clinical signs before death. PD was confirmed by post-mortem examinations. Furthermore, signs of aspiration pneumonia and systemic arteriosclerosis were evident. However, histopathological analyses of the brain uncovered previously unsuspected findings, including acute vasculitis (predominantly lymphocytic) as well as multifocal necrotizing encephalitis of unknown etiology with pronounced inflammation including glial and lymphocytic reaction. In the heart, signs of chronic cardiomyopathy as well as mild acute lympho-histiocytic myocarditis and vasculitis were present. Although there was no history of COVID-19 for this patient, immunohistochemistry for SARS-CoV-2 antigens (spike and nucleocapsid proteins) was performed. Surprisingly, only spike protein but no nucleocapsid protein could be detected within the foci of inflammation in both the brain and the heart, particularly in the endothelial cells of small blood vessels. Since no nucleocapsid protein could be detected, the presence of spike protein must be ascribed to vaccination rather than to viral infection. The findings corroborate previous reports of encephalitis and myocarditis caused by gene-based COVID-19 vaccines.

It would seem, that unless an autopsy is done, there is no way to be sure.
I wonder if this too is being suppressed in the name of Big Pharma profits.
Argh!

Alleged Intruder Enters Home Through Window, Gets Shot Dead
AWR Hawkins3 Jan 202396
*** begin quote ***
An alleged intruder entered a Lake County, Florida, home through a window Monday and was shot dead by a person inside the house.

Baring further evidence, it seems that this is a sad but necessary outcome.
Hard to imagine this is his first attempted break in.
While I’m pro-life, I think this is the best possible outcome — only the bad guy pays.

New Evidence Unearthed by Podcasters Frees 2 Men Wrongfully Imprisoned for 25 Years
By Andy Corbley – Dec 29, 2022
*** begin quote ***
Two men wrongfully-imprisoned for more than two decades were able to spend Christmas with their families after a podcast and non-profit advanced evidence of their innocence.
Darrell Lee Clark and Cain Joshua Storey were just teenagers when they stood trial for a murder of their 15-year-old friend he died of gunshot wounds at a party in 1996.
Clack had all the charges against him dropped after a motion for a new trial was field on his behalf by attorneys from the Georgia Innocence Project. He was released Thursday along with Storey.
*** and ***
The details go like this. At a party, 15-year-old Brian Bowling shot himself in a game of Russian Roulette with a gun allegedly provided by Storey. Manslaughter was to be the original charge, but Bowling’s distraught family urged for the charge to be stiffened to murder, and charged Clark who had a corroborating alibi of his absence from the whole situation, in a conspiracy to murder.
The Proof podcast hosts interviewed the party hostess, who admitted that the police had coerced her into making false statements regarding Clark and Storey’s testimony. The second witness was a hearing-impaired man, and Simpson and Davis got him on record as not being able to separate the Bowling murder details with a very similar case from ten years later in 1976.
*** end quote ***
The “death penalty” eliminates any chance of rectifying an injustice.
The police coerced a false statement; they should be punished severely.
Qualified immunity is a joke. I’m sure all involved are enjoying their pensions.
Argh!

Thoughtcrime is a word coined by George Orwell in his 1949 dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. It describes a person’s politically unorthodox thoughts, such as beliefs and doubts that contradict the tenets of Ingsoc (English Socialism), the dominant ideology of Oceania. In the official language of Newspeak, the word crimethink describes the intellectual actions of a person who entertains and holds politically unacceptable thoughts; thus the government of the Party controls the speech, the actions, and the thoughts of the citizens of Oceania.

Buffalo man hailed as hero for rescuing 24 people during winter storm

Around 6 a.m. on Christmas Eve, and after taking turns running the engine and napping, Withey’s truck ran out of gas and the trio was forced to find proper shelter.
“Off to the left, I could see there was a school about 600, 700 feet away from us. I knew the power would be on, there would be heat in there and I was guaranteeing there would be food in there,” Withey told the station.
After some quick thinking, Withey identified others around him who were also stranded and decided to break into the school.
Withey and his crew, a total of 25, including seven senior citizens, made their way into Pine Hill Primary Center and took shelter — respectfully setting up only what was needed. They set up their main area in the cafeteria, helping themselves only to the food they needed and nothing in the fully stocked freezer, according to police.
*** end quote ***
I found it astonishing that he had to break in.
One would think with the approaching storm, the Gooferment — at all levels — would order all public buildings to be unlocked. Same for the Churches. I’m sure every school has a Principal and a Custodian. Someone should be authorized to take emergency action.
Argh!

Thai man arrested for modifying BB guns to fire live ammo
By Tom Knighton | 8:30 PM on December 28, 2022

Like I said, creative.
Yossakorn would allegedly buy BB guns for about as much as 8,000 baht, or around $230, and sell them for 15,000 baht, or about $430.
Not too shabby of a profit, really.
Understand, Thailand has all that gun control. If gun control works as advertised, how could anyone turn a BB gun into a fully-functional firearm?
And I’m trying to figure out what video he watched on YouTube, especially since the site is known to be hell on anyone showing American audiences how to build guns, even though that’s perfectly legal here. So I’m curious just what he was watching and when did he watch it.
*** end quote ***
Put this in the “Criminals Are Not Law Abiding” and people have God-given inalienable right of self-defense.
Feel sorry for this poor guy trying to make a few bucks empowering others.
I too am interested in what YouTube video he watched.

New Biomarker Test Can Detect Alzheimer’s Neurodegeneration in Blood
12/27/2022
*** begin quote ***
PITTSBURGH — A group of neuroscientists led by a University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine researcher developed a test to detect a novel marker of Alzheimer’s disease neurodegeneration in a blood sample. A study on their results was published today in Brain.

Now there is a medical trial I could volunteer for. That has to be a disease that needs to be “cured”. Finding a test is step 1.
How little we really know is demonstrated almost daily.
