North Carolina GOP chair, major donor charged with bribery

https://www.starnewsonline.com/news/20190402/north-carolina-gop-chair-major-donor-charged-with-bribery

RALEIGH — The chairman of North Carolina’s Republican Party and a secretive big-money donor are facing federal bribery and wire fraud charges accusing them of trying to sway regulatory decisions in favor of the donor’s insurance companies, according to indictments unsealed Tuesday.

State GOP Chairman Robin Hayes and investment firm founder Greg Lindberg are among four people charged with bribery and conspiracy to commit honest services wire fraud. Hayes faces additional counts of making false statements. The four defendants appeared Tuesday before a federal magistrate.

Quote from one of Publius' comments:

"This is no longer your land. Your laws do not apply. We are sovereign."

My reply:

That sounds like an official slogan of La Raza, NOI, CAIR and other mohammedan orgs, and the Democrat Party. As well as socialist/communist orgs, and teachings of commiepuke college professors all across the land.

No. In the military it is customary to maintain as close to a normal operating environment as possible so as not to alert the enemy that something is about to happen.

Show the enemy what he expects to see and he won't see what you don't want him to.

Hillary Clinton PERSONALLY Arranged For Chinese Vaccine Manufacturers to Avoid US Government Scrutiny

Chinese Made Vaccines are “Pre-Approved” by the World Health Organization (WHO). They Completely Bypass Any US Agency Inspections… Hide Your Children…

The official publication of the World Health Organization (WHO) writes in their Bulletin an article called “China Enters the Global Vaccine Market.”

The article points points out that Hillary Clinton, in 2014, played the NUMBER ONE role in allowing Chinese vaccine manufacturers to completely bypass US vaccine testing requirements, and thereby allowing direct from the factory to American children WITH NO QUALITY CONTROL in between.

From the article:
“The Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) has been working with Chinese suppliers to support their applications for WHO prequalification for several vaccine candidates for the last two years, says Joshua Chu, CHAI’s Director, Vaccines Markets.”
Yes, you read that right….

Those of you that are surprised, and dismayed, are in for a further rude awakening…

The drug industry, with Hillary Clinton, and the rest of the Clinton Foundation “Pay-To-Play” network have arranged FAR MORE than a vaccine deal with China. China has a “Free-Ride” over ALL drugs manufactured for the US market. And they’ve had that “Free-Ride” for years.

lj, I’ve come to the tabled a little late. Just had a nasty knee replacement. But I’ve got my knife and fork ready, waiting for the BIG BOOM to hit for a great table too. Thought with being off for a few days things would be moving along at a rapid rate only to find that the same ol subjects are still on the table.

I want to caveat my post with the statement that in their "world" it does not matter what we believe, it matters what they believe.

Owls chased this rabbit down a serious hole today.

So it is back to the OWL. (sorry bags)

Okay so the Latin for Screech Owl is (Strigidae)

Let's start with Str

Stri means Woman or female.

Str refers to “women” who have dealings with the king whose classes have been defined on the.. chapter 34

(Sanskrit grammar)

1) Str-The sense of the feminine; cf.

2) Str —A word ending with an affix in the sense of femininity such as or the like;

3) Str —A word in the sense of feminine cf.

https://www.wisdomlib.org/definition/stri

(Strigidae) or Screech Owl (NEW WORLD OWL)

Yes there are Old World Owls and New World Owls

Who knew?

Screech owls or screech-owls are typical owls (Strigidae) belonging to the genus Megascops. Twenty-one living species are known at present, but new ones are frequently recognized and unknown ones are still being discovered on a regular basis, especially in the Andes. For most of the 20th century, this genus was merged with the Old World scops owls in Otus, but nowadays it is again considered separate based on a range of behavioral, biogeographical, morphological and DNA sequence data.

Screech owls are restricted to the Americas.

Some species formerly placed with them are nowadays considered more distinct (see below for details). The common name "screech owl" is sometimes used for the not closely related barn owl as well.

The genus was introduced by the German naturalist Johann Jakob Kaup in 1848. The type species is the eastern screech owl (Megascops asio). The evolutionary relationships of the scops and screech owls are not entirely clear. What is certain is that they are very closely related; they may be considered sister lineages which fill essentially the same ecological niche in their allopatric ranges. A screech owl fossil from the Late Pliocene of Kansas (which is almost identical to eastern and western screech owls) indicates a longstanding presence of these birds in the Americas, while coeval scops owl fossils very similar to the Eurasian scops owl have been found at S'Onix on Majorca. The scops and screech owl lineage probably evolved at some time during the Miocene (like most other genera of typical owls), and the three (see below) modern lineages separated perhaps roughly 5 million years ago. Note that there is no reliable estimate of divergence time, as Otus and Megascops are osteologically very similar, as is to be expected from a group that has apparently conserved its ecomorphology since before its evolutionary radiation. Like almost all scops and screech owls today, their common ancestor was in all probability already a small owl, with ear tufts and at least the upper tarsus ("leg") feathered.

However that may be, the hypothesis that the group evolved from Old World stock is tentatively supported by cytochrome b sequence data. The screech-owls also have a different placement of the procoracoid (less of an anterior incline) and coracoid bones compared to other New World owls.

While late-19th-century ornithologists knew little of the variation of these birds which often live in far-off places, with every new taxon described a few differences between the Old and New World "scops" owls became more and more prominent. Namely, the scops owls give a whistling call or a row of high-pitched hoots with fewer than four individual hoots per second. This call is given in social interaction or when the owl tries to scare away other animals. The screech owls on the other hand are named for their piercing trills of more than four individual notes per second and as noted above they also have a kind of song, which is absent in the scops owls..

Okay, moving on.

On to Strixology

Strixology is a genre of writing about the reality and dangers of witches, their origins, character and power; often in the context of theology or of demonology.

(The Latin word strix can mean "screech-owl" or "witch".)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strixology

The Malleus Maleficarum, usually translated as the Hammer of Witches, is the best known and the most thorough treatise on witchcraft...

Strixology in the Malleus Maleficarum is characterized by a very specific conception of what a witch is, one that differs dramatically from earlier times. The word used, malefica, carries an explicit condemnation absent in other words referring to women with supernatural powers. The conception of witches and of magic by extension is one of evil. It differs from earlier conceptions of witchcraft that were much more generalized. This is the point in history where "witchcraft constituted an independent antireligion". The witch lost her powerful position vis-a-vis the deities; the ability to force the deities comply with her wishes was replaced by a total subordination to the devil. In short, "[t]he witch became Satan's puppet." This conception of witches was "part of a conception of magic that is termed by scholars as 'Satanism' or 'diabolism'". In this conception, a witch was a member of "a malevolent society presided over by Satan himself and dedicated to the infliction of malevolent acts of sorcery (maleficia) on others."

According to Mackay, this concept of sorcery is characterized by the conviction that those guilty engage in six activities

1.A pact entered into with the Devil (and concomitant apostasy from Christianity),

2.Sexual relations with the Devil,

3.Aerial flight for the purpose of attending;

4.An assembly presided over by Satan himself (at which initiates entered into the pact, and incest and promiscuous sex were engaged in by the attendees),

5.The practice of maleficent magic (causing harm or destruction, especially by supernatural means)

6.The slaughter of babies.

In the Malleus demons are the ones who tempt humans to sorcery and are the main figures in the witches' vows. They interact with witches, usually sexually. The book claims that it is normal for all witches "to perform filthy carnal acts with demons." This is a major part of human-demon interaction and demons do it "not for the sake of pleasure, but for the sake of corrupting." It is worth noting that not all demons do such things. The book claims that "the nobility of their nature causes certain demons to balk at committing certain actions and filthy deeds." Though the work never gives a list of names or types of demons, like some demonological texts or spellbooks of the era, such as the Liber Juratus, it does indicate different types of demons. For example, it devotes large sections to incubi and succubi and questions regarding their roles in pregnancies, the submission of witches to incubi, and protections against them.

sorcerer is used to preserve the relationship of the Latin terminology. '"Malefium" = act of sorcery (literally an act of 'evil-doing'), while "malefica" = female performers of sorcery (evil deeds) and "maleficus" = male performer of evil deeds; sorcery, sorceress, and sorcerer."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malleus_Maleficarum

Can't leave out the Bard's witches from Macbeth now can I?

Stygian Witches (WHO SHARED "ONE EYE")

In Greek mythology the Graea ; English translation: "old women", "grey ones", or "grey witches"; alternatively spelled Graiai; and Graiae, also called the Grey Sisters, and the Phorcides ("daughters of Phorcys"),[1] were three sisters who shared one eye and one tooth among them. Their names were Deino (or Dino), Enyo, and Pemphredo (or Pephredo).

They shared one eye and one tooth, which they took turns using. By stealing their eye while they were passing it among themselves, the hero Perseus forced them to tell the whereabouts of the three objects needed to kill Medusa (in other versions the whereabouts of Medusa) by ransoming their shared eye for the information.[3]

Oh one more related

Sty + x

Styx - The waters of one Styx in the Aroanian mountains In Greek mythology, Styx (Ancient Greek: ; [stýks]is a deity and a river that forms the boundary between Earth and the Underworld, often called "Hades", which is also the name of its ruler. The rivers Styx, Phlegethon, Acheron, Lethe, and Cocytus all converge at the center of the underworld on a great marsh, which sometimes is also called the Styx. According to Herodotus, the river Styx originates near Feneos.[1] Styx is also a goddess with prehistoric roots in Greek mythology as a daughter of Tethys, after whom the river is named and because of whom it had miraculous powers.

Significance

The deities of the Greek pantheon swore all their oaths upon the river Styx because, according to classical mythology, during the Titan war, Styx, the goddess of the river, sided with Zeus. After the war, Zeus declared that every oath must be sworn upon her.[2] Zeus swore to give Semele whatever she wanted and was then obliged to follow through when he realized to his horror that her request would lead to her death. Helios similarly promised his son Phaëton whatever he desired, also resulting in the boy's death. Myths related to such early deities did not survive long enough to be included in historic records, but tantalizing references exist among those that have been discovered.

According to some versions, Styx had miraculous powers and could make someone invulnerable. According to one tradition, Achilles was dipped in the waters of the river by his mother during his childhood, acquiring invulnerability, with exception of his heel, by which his mother held him. The only spot where Achilles was vulnerable was therefore that heel, where he was struck and killed by Paris's arrow during the Trojan War. This is the source of the expression Achilles' heel, a metaphor for a vulnerable spot.

Styx was primarily a feature in the afterworld of classical Greek mythology, similar to the Christian area of Hell in texts such as The Divine Comedy and Paradise Lost. The ferryman Charon often is described as having transported the souls of the newly dead across this river into the underworld. Dante put Phlegyas as ferryman over the Styx and made it the fifth circle of Hell, where the wrathful and sullen are punished by being drowned in the muddy waters for eternity, with the wrathful fighting each other. In ancient times some believed that a coin (Charon's obol) placed in the mouth of a dead person[3] would pay the toll for the ferry across the river to the entrance of the underworld. It was said that if someone could not pay the fee, they would never be able to cross the river. The ritual was performed by the relatives of the dead.

The variant spelling Stix was sometimes used in translations of Classical Greek before the 20th century.[4] By metonymy, the adjective stygian / came to refer to anything dark, dismal, and murky.
