Many come here to read dispatches from the War between Good and Evil, to red-pill and encourage.....and to pray and give thanks to the God who fights for us.
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.

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.
Where We Go 1, We Go All
Statehouse Republicans Work With Democrats To Make Florida Purple Again
Excerpt:
The establishment’s revival in Florida threatens Republican victories in the state long-term and Florida’s policy leadership across the country.
Republicans may be heading toward a no-confidence vote in Florida House Speaker Daniel Perez after he and other state legislators have spent this spring attempting to neuter policies that make Florida the national pacesetter for effective governance.
This includes efforts to hamper immigration enforcement, protect education waste and indoctrination, undo lawsuit limits, increase taxes, and smear conservatives. The drama includes an attempt to scandalize a charity Gov. Ron DeSantis’s wife, Casey, supports.
“Florida was very atypical for six years, and then now it’s just going right back into typical mode, which is more like a Texas or an Indiana or a Georgia, a red legislature that, ‘We’re going to do everything we can to bring Walmart’s tax rate to the lowest level imaginable’ and then do absolutely nothing to combat things that affect the quality of life for the desiccating middle class,” says Anthony Sabatini, a Republican former state representative who is now a county commissioner outside Orlando.
Primary battles backdrop the invective-laden, highly publicized spat between the governor and House. Perez is also term-limited and rumored to be readying to run for Miami mayor, an open seat in a Democrat-friendly locale. The current Republican Miami mayor demanded DeSantis reinstitute Covid restrictions and supports high-cost energy.
DeSantis is term-limited out in January 2027, and his wife may seek his position. DeSantis rode high on transforming a politically contested Florida into a supermajority-Republican state that voted for his reelection in 2022 by 19 points, the largest margin for a Florida governor in 40 years.
But he burned some of that capital on a failed primary of President Trump in 2023, even while delivering Florida big for Trump that cycle. That, his term limit, and DeSantis’ effective 2024 support for culturally conservative ballot measures protecting Florida from legalized weed and unlimited abortion resharpened the knives of the big business donor class in Florida.
That party wing now advertises itself as pro-Trump while continuing to suffocate Trump and DeSantis policies that their voters love. This threatens Republican victories in the state long-term and Florida’s policy leadership across the country.
.....Doing Democrats’ Work for Them
This spring the Florida House passed House Bills 1321 and 1267 to force out conservative personnel DeSantis has been installing in state universities and end his recruitment of nationally recognized conservative policy experts in education. It would require them to live in Florida and be quickly ousted via short term limits, as well as create more bureaucracy in personnel changes, especially for college trustees and presidents. HB 1267 died in the Senate in early May.
HB 1321 is cosponsored by Republican Rep. Michelle Salzman and Democrat Rep. Anna Eskamani. Eskamani was formerly a spokeswoman for abortion and gender-change giant Planned Parenthood and an advocate of identity politics at the University of South Florida. In the legislature, she has also attempted to strip school choice dollars from Christian schools.
The Florida Senate refused to consider DeSantis’ nomination of Moms for Liberty cofounder Tina Descovich for a state ethics commission, which removed her from the post on April 29. It’s likely retaliation for Moms for Liberty activists primarying weak Republicans over DEI, school lockdowns, and allowing kids to see queer porn, as well as blaming parents frustrated with school boards for being victims of the Biden administration “domestic terrorist” designation.
Perez also fought to undo state tort reform with House Bill 1551 and Senate Bill 947. These would increase insurance costs and attorney’s fees, said public testimony on the House bill, and “could re-open the door to exorbitant fee awards for billboard lawyers.”
A Senate analysis finds House Bill 1551 could increase payouts to lawyers and insurance costs for Florida residents. Trial lawyers are a top player in politics, with the vast majority of their political contributions funding far-left causes and measures to increase lawsuits. Perez has received major political donations from health care and lawyer lobbyists.
While forcing Republicans to defend policy victories they established in previous sessions, the drama has included the Perez-led House not considering bills to establish open carry and ban Marxist queer sex flags from government properties.
The sparks started when DeSantis convened a special session in January to back incoming President Trump’s immigration policies. House Speaker Daniel Perez gaveled out the session 19 minutes after it began in a public snub to DeSantis, calling a special session “premature.”
Yet then Perez immediately gaveled in a second special session and handed members a bill that would have put the state agriculture commissioner in charge of immigration enforcement. Illegal workers are 60 percent of Florida farm employees, according to an industry group. As The Federalist reported, Florida’s agriculture commissioner supported giving driver’s licenses and in-state tuition to foreign citizens as a state senator.
Perez’s bill also failed to require local officials’ cooperation with federal efforts by erasing DeSantis’s proposed penalties. It also failed to curtail remittances — U.S. dollars migrant workers send abroad, a key motivator for illegal migration and a funding stream for cartels. Perez touted these proposals as “supporting President Trump,” even naming the bill “The TRUMP Act.”
The Florida House “pushing a bill that would have shut down state efforts towards deportation was a literal translation of their donors’ wants and needs,” Sabatini said. “U.S. sugar, ag, home builders association, chamber of commerce — they all want illegals, obviously, as many as they can possibly get, both as workers and consumers.”
.....Perez’s speakership has been marked by middle-school-level reprisals and drama, while he projects the same onto DeSantis: “It seems we’re getting to this regularity where [DeSantis] has a temper tantrum and he gets in front of a camera and he does one of two things: either spew lies — willingly choosing to lie about what he is telling the people in front of a camera — or he is not reading the bills,” Perez told corporate media on April 16.
Besides the special session gavel-out, gavel-in stunt, the leaders of both chambers worked to override DeSantis’ vetoes, the first time Florida’s legislature has done so in 15 years. The last happened as a legislative rebuke after Gov. Charlie Crist left the Republican Party.
After he proposed more stringent immigration enforcement than Speaker Perez, one Monday morning in February, Rep. Mike Caruso, R-Palm Beach, came in to work and found his corner office cleared out. The outspoken DeSantis ally eventually found his goods piled on a different floor on top of his American flag, he told The Federalist.
For disagreeing on immigration policy, Caruso said, Perez also stripped Caruso’s chairmanship of the economic infrastructure committee, denied all his appropriation requests, refused to hear any of his bills, and sometimes won’t even recognize Caruso to speak on the House floor. Of course, even Democrats’ appropriations are considered and their bills heard. Perez also kicked Republican Rep. John Temple out of his office after he expressed remorse for voting for Perez’s immigration bill.
.....“There is a great underlying rumbling from the members that they feel tired of being retaliated on, abused, forced to vote certain votes that they did not come up to Tallahassee to do in fear of retaliation,” Caruso said. He thinks if the speaker “can’t get it together” on the already delayed state budget, a no-confidence vote will become a majority position.
*****************
While attention is on DC state RINOS and democrats doing their best to negate things at the state level.
Despite this author saying good things about DeSantis, DeSantis is just as guilty as Perez and his minions. Everyone celebrated DeSantis eliminating Disney’s Reedy Creek. Reedy Creek had $ 5 billion in bonds outstanding and due to the elimination of Reedy Creek the $ 5 billion in bonds fell on the backs of Florida taxpayers to cover/pay. Disney is smiling as is their wallet. Florida still has voting machines and still allows mail in voting not a word from Tallahassee on eliminating them.

Trump posted this Truth 13 hours, 4 minutes ahead of tomorrow's conference. If I had to guess which "BIG AND HIGHLY RESPECTED COUNTRY" is being referred to ... I know which country I would say. (Discussion of minerals would not surprise me either.)
