Q has reminded us repeatedly that together, we are strong. As the false "narrative" is destroyed and the divisive machinery put in place by the Deep State fails, the fact that patriotism has no skin color or political party is exposed for all to see.

Those who attack you.
Those who mock you.
Those who cull you.
Those who control you.
Those who label you.
Do they represent you?
Or, do they represent themselves (in some form)?
Mental Enslavement.
The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ‘ship’) that provides the scattered (‘free thinkers’) with a ‘starter’ new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment).
When ‘non-dogmatic’ information becomes FREE & TRANSPARENT it becomes a threat to those who attempt to control the narrative and/or the stable.
When you are awake, you stand on the outside of the stable (‘group-think’ collective), and have ‘free thought’.
"Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma.
When you are awake, you are able to clearly see.
The choice is yours, and yours alone.
Trust and put faith in yourself.
You are not alone and you are not in the minority.
Difficult truths will soon see the light of day.

In the battle between those who strip us our constitutional rights, we can't afford to let false divisions separate us any longer. We, and our country, will be forever made stronger by diligently seeking the truth, independence and freedom of thought.

Making Cars – and Trucks – Affordable Again
https://www.ericpetersautos.com/2024/11/18/making-cars-and-trucks-affordable-again/
Excerpt:
Donald Trump’s promise to make American Great Again could easily be delivered on by making cars – and trucks – affordable again. The word “easily” is italicized because it could be just that. Because affordable cars – and trucks – are already being made.
It is merely a matter of allowing them to be sold.
Here, that is.
For instance, the 2024 Toyota HiLux Champ. It is a basic – a stripped down – version of the Tacoma pickup Toyota is allowed to sell here that stickers for $31,500 to start. The HiLux Champ stickers for about $13k to start. But Toyota is not allowed to sell it here.
There are several reasons why the HiLux only costs about a third as much as a Tacoma, including that it does not come standard with a turbocharged four cylinder engine augmented by a hybrid tandem drivetrain – or an automatic transmission. It comes standard with a manual transmission. And it’s available with a diesel engine. Neither of which are available in the 2024 Tacoma Americans are allowed to buy.
But there is only one reason why the Champ is not legal to sell here:
It is not compliant.
.....his “compliant” equals “safe” – and “clean” – is the bait-and-switch the regulatory apparat has used for decades to make life more expensive for Americans and thus America less and less great. Before all of this regulating – and the need for all this complying – trucks cost less than most cars and most Americans could afford to buy full-size cars with V8 engines.
This was not as long ago as the ’70s, incidentally.
It was a recently as about 13 years ago.
Back in 2011, an American could still buy a full-sized, rear-wheel-drive sedan with a V8 engine – the Ford Crown Victoria – for about $30,000. Today, something that fits that description stickers for about $100,000 – and $30,000 will buy you a much smaller, mid-sized car with a four cylinder engine augmented by a hybrid-electric tandem drivetrain.
The only reason for this transition is the need to comply with the latest regulations emanating from the regulatory apparat. These have nothing to do with “safety,” by the way – and this is easy to prove.
A Mercedes S-Class sedan that was made the same year that the last Ford Crown Victoria was made would, if it were made today, not be compliant with the latest “safety” regulations.
Not because it isn’t safe to drive – or to be within in the event of a crash. It would in fact be among the very safest places to be within, in the event of a crash – because a 2011 Mercedes S-Class is built like a tank.
.....But the ’11 S550 would not be . . . compliant – per 2024 model year standards. And all that means is it does not exactly conform to every penny-ante regulation imposed on vehicles since 2011. It does not mean a 2011 Mercedes S-Class is an accident waiting to happen. It certainly does not mean a 2011 S-Class is less able to withstand impact forces in a crash than a compliant 2024 model year Honda Civic.
But that is precisely what the regulatory apparat wants you to believe. More finely, the apparatchiks want you to believe they are keeping you safe (and keeping pollution at bay) because that is how they justify the never-ending, always-increasing compliance regime.
And their jobs.
They cannot admit the job is done – as regards vehicle exhaust emissions, which ceased being a legitimate problem more than 30 years ago – and they cannot ever allow the public to understand the distinction between compliant and “safe,” because that is the tool of mental manipulation they have to have in order to get people to accept why they are not allowed to have the opportunity to buy a $13,000 brand-new truck like the 2024 Toyota Hilux Champ.
It is not a “safe” truck.
It “emits” too much “pollution.”
If you believe this, you may have also believed the drugs the government came just shy of forcing everyone to take were “safe” – and “effective.”
.....There is no legitimate reason for barring affordable vehicles like the HiLux from entering the U.S.market. There is only . . . bullshit. Federal regulatory bullshit, for its own sake. For the sake of the make-work of the federal bureaucracy. And once he is formally the president, Trump could end it.
It would be literally as easy as signing an executive order.
He wants to make America great again? A great start – come January – would be to make new vehicles affordable again.

tc... I found the answer about monthly credit card donors in the thread linked below...
Jim Robinson said --- "I’m very sorry, I was hoping we would not have to do this, but it now looks like there’s no way to go forward without asking our credit card monthly donors to reenter their credit card info. Please submit a new monthly and we will pull the old one (Credit/debit card monthly donors only).
Thank you very much."

They tried, bashing it, crashing it, drowning it, and setting it on fire...

can that 13K vehicle be made in the USA without the regulatory B.S?
don’t think so...
