Many come here to read dispatches from the War between Good and Evil; to volunteer, red-pill and encourage; and to pray and give thanks to God, who fights for us.
Excerpt of Q4542
"It is necessary that the good, the children of light, come together and make their voices heard. What more effective way is there to do this, Mr. President, than by prayer, asking the Lord to protect you, the United States, and all of humanity from this enormous attack of the Enemy? Before the power of prayer, the deceptions of the children of darkness will collapse, their plots will be revealed, their betrayal will be shown, their frightening power will end in nothing, brought to light and exposed for what it is: an infernal deception."
+ Carlo Maria Viganò
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.

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.
WWG1WGA!!!Q
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.

DEI at Sea: Why the Coast Guard Still Has No New Icebreakers
https://amuseonx.substack.com/p/dei-at-sea-why-the-coast-guard-still
Excerpt:
Imagine a scenario: you pay a contractor $1.7 billion for three new homes. Five years pass. You have no homes. Worse, you’re told it will be another five years, and the final cost will now exceed $5 billion. Meanwhile, your neighbor offers to sell you ready-made homes of superior quality for a fifth of the price, deliverable in 24 months. Would you continue with your original contractor? Of course not. But that, astonishingly, is what the United States government has done with our icebreaker fleet.
In 2019, we awarded a defense contract to build three new Polar Security Cutters—essentially, heavy icebreakers—to VT Halter Marine. The total price then was $745.9 million for the first ship, with options for two more. As of this writing in 2025, not one of those ships exists. The lead vessel, originally promised for 2024, now won’t be delivered until 2030. Meanwhile, the project’s cost has ballooned past $1.7 billion, and when all is said and done, the full program could top $5 billion. It is a case study in bureaucratic waste and misplaced priorities. But more than that, it is a damning indictment of a procurement system subordinated not to merit, efficiency, or national security—but to ideology.
The ideology in question is Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). On its face, DEI seems innocuous, even noble. Who objects to inclusion? But in practice, it has metastasized into a bureaucratic cancer, replacing excellence with identity and capability with compliance. Nowhere is this more evident than in defense contracting, where eligibility to bid increasingly depends less on a track record of excellence and more on checking demographic boxes. DEI doesn’t just sit atop the priority list—it is the priority list.
One may ask: is there proof that DEI influenced the icebreaker contract? Consider that the winning shipyard, VT Halter Marine, had a history of underperformance, including cost overruns and delivery delays. It was not chosen for its track record of building polar-class vessels (it had none), nor for speed, nor cost-efficiency. Yet it secured the contract—only to be sold later to Bollinger Shipyards amid performance failures. Why?
Because the procurement process no longer elevates the most competent bidder. It elevates the most compliant. Contractors now submit “equity action plans” alongside technical bids. They disclose supplier diversity metrics, workforce demographics, and ESG credentials. One must not merely promise to build a ship—one must promise to build it with a sufficiently diverse team, using environmentally and socially approved methods, and with deference to every imaginable political concern unrelated to maritime engineering. That is the sine qua non of modern federal contracting.
Meanwhile, Finland builds icebreakers. Real ones. On time. Under budget. In 2016, the Finnish ship Polaris was delivered for under $150 million. Today, that same vessel could be replicated for $250 million and delivered within two years. They have the shipyards, the skilled labor, and the technical expertise. The United States has none of these, because we outsourced capability in favor of diversity.
President Trump understands this. Earlier this month, he hosted Finland’s President at Mar-a-Lago. The two men played golf, but the real work came off the fairway. They discussed, among other matters, U.S.-Finnish cooperation on icebreakers. Trump, never one for euphemism, suggested we should simply buy the ships from Finland and end this charade of pretending VT Halter/Bollinger can deliver. He’s right.
The strategic implications of our incompetence are stark. Today, the United States operates just one heavy icebreaker—the aging USCGC Polar Star—and a single medium vessel, the Healy. That’s two ships. Russia, by contrast, commands a fleet of roughly 40 icebreakers, including eight nuclear-powered heavy icebreakers with more on the way. By 2035, they plan to add seven more. This gives them year-round operational control of the Arctic, allowing them to escort commercial convoys, assert territorial claims, and exploit vast energy reserves while we watch from the sidelines.
The Arctic is not just a frozen expanse; it is a theater of economic, environmental, and military consequence. As ice recedes, shipping routes once impassable become contested. Whoever can navigate the Arctic can control global trade lanes, resource flows, and strategic chokepoints. Today, that is Russia—not us. And the reason, in part, is because Russia rejects DEI orthodoxy. They focus on capability. We focus on compliance. The results speak for themselves.
.....That is what Trump understood when he floated the idea of buying icebreakers from Finland. He was not surrendering to foreign supply chains. He was acknowledging that Finland has what we once had: an industrial policy rooted in performance. He was making a point—not just about ships, but about a national ethic of competence. It is a point we would do well to absorb.
So let us take this as a pivot. Let the failed icebreaker program stand as a monument to the perils of ideological procurement. Let Mar-a-Lago’s golf course become the place where the ice finally broke—metaphorically and otherwise. Let us bring shipbuilding home, but let us bring it home to the best among us. To welders who know their trade. To designers who care more about hull integrity than HR seminars. To companies that can cut steel faster than they can issue a press release about pronouns.
A nation that cannot build ships cannot defend itself. A nation that cannot choose its builders wisely cannot claim to govern itself rationally. The stakes, then, are higher than dollars and deadlines. They are existential. We must choose excellence. We must demand performance. And we must never again allow ideology to steer the rudder of national security.

Also, I have often wondered at just how brilliant Trump may be and has been. Many speculated that the country would be well into a civil war by now yet it's not really happening is it?
Are the bad guys,millions of bad actors who crossed the open border, just waiting for the right moment? Or did Trump anticipate all this and have everything in check for the moment. We may never know. I have always thought that we get only a glimpse of what is actually going on in the background.
Gitmo for example. All we know is that its being rapidly expanded. We have no direct knowledge of the hundreds of rumors that have already been out there. How many were actually true? What really happened that we don't know about and may never know? Is it realistic that we have thousands and thousands of sealed and unsealed warrants ready to be used? Just how much has President Trump been doing for say:
THE LAST DECADE
that we don't know about. All questions that I would like to know.
Excellent post one more reason many of us are so glad we have the best President there is or likely ever will be.
I'm convinced one of the consequences of our victory in WW2 was our Ruling Elites realized how unstoppable the American People are when we are united in a common effort.
That was too much for our Ruling Elites to bear.
