I am crawling through some 2018 Q drops looking for clues as to the nature of current topics of investigation being discussed in private House Oversight Committee meetings which continue through October.
I said previously that I believe the investigations starting during Trump's first term continued through the Biden regime and are still in progress. I agree with those who say the fact that people at Comey(Indicted) and the Clintons' (testifying) level are in the spotlight now means the case is likely RICO, and the lower levels of criminals have already been investigated/tried/judged etc.
So I started my dig with James Comey - looking at what Q said in 2018 and what the DOJ is saying now about him because I'm wondering what we're not being told.
It needed a timeline to work from so I pulled up an article which, being an MSM source, likely has issues. For now, I find it infuriatingly informative to read the timeline of events in what The Guardian refers to as the 'feud' between Comey and Presidnet Trump starting in 2015. I'd certainly forgotten details like the fact that Trump hugged Comey at a White House reception.Trump hugged Comey, joking, “He’s become more famous than me.”
In the Guardian article I learned that in September of this year, Mark Warner (VA), the top Democrat on the Senate intelligence committee, said it is the indictments were the latest sign that the president is making good on his promise “to turn our justice system into a weapon for punishing and silencing his critics”. Well, I found the assertions in The Guardian either interesting and or infuriating, so I put it aside and looked at the actual allegations in the Comey indictment.
According to a release by Pam Bondi, the DOJ alleges Comey obstructed a congressional investigation into the disclosure of sensitive information in violation of 18 USC 1505.
Also, the DOJ alleges Comey made a false statement in violation of 18 USC 1001. (Comey stated that he did not authorize someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source. According to the indictment that statement was false.)
I found an MSM article (no link) which never mentioned anything about the allegation regarding Comey authorizing a FIB to function as an anonymous source. For this reason I conclude that the MSM is sensitive about this part of the Comey indictment. Who loves anonymous sources more than anyone else on the planet? The Media. I think the MSM must be drinking heavily and crying in corners if Comey has been indicted for authorizing a FIB to leak news to the MSM.
Frankly I always though the White Hats would have to purge the MSM before they perform more sweeping tasks. I believe the MSM would panic the public if military in cities engaged violent antifa. If arrests were made the MSM would be informing the public that there’s a military coup going on or some stupid thing. I've already seen people like Maddow recruiting for 'No Kings Protests' (I'm saying her broadcasts are recruiting and organizing protesters, inciting people to get on the buses to attend the rallies (a friend keeps getting No Kings messages urging him to help drive people to bus pickup locations for the next No Kings ralley).
So I believe that we need the current version of Goebbels' press to face indictments for treason before the White Hats take the field to save America.
Anyway, in my search for what was said iabout Comey's leaks, I came across an August 4, 2017 press release from AG Sessions in which he said a few things I found of interest (skip to point 7 for the key info)
1. There were a staggering amount of leaks of classified information.
2. "Referrals for investigations of classified leaks to the Department of Justice from our intelligence agencies have exploded. In the first six months of this Administration, DOJ has already received nearly as many criminal referrals involving unauthorized disclosures of classified information as we received in the last three years combined."
3. The National Insider Threat Task Force (established in 2011) is taking action. Sessions and Dan Coates were leading the task force.
4. Since January, the Department has more than tripled the number of active leak investigations compared to the number pending at the end of the last Administration. And we have already charged four people with unlawfully disclosing classified material or with concealing contacts with foreign intelligence officers. (ransomnote: Were any of those charges sealed indictments?)
4. "First, I directed my Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein—whose district in Maryland encompassed the NSA headquarters and who has personally led these kinds of investigations— and FBI Director Christopher Wray" were to oversee all classified leak investigations and actively monitor the progress of each and every case."
5 "Third, as I said, we tripled the number of active leak investigations. In response, the FBI has increased resources devoted to leak cases and created a new counterintelligence unit to manage these cases."
6. "....one of the things we are doing is reviewing policies affecting media subpoenas. We respect the important role that the press plays and will give them respect, but it is not unlimited. They cannot place lives at risk with impunity. "
(ransomnote: I think in terms of timing, any investigations into the treasonous press in 2018 must be ripe in 2025. The investiation into gov censorship introduced by Matt Talib's could also form the basis of White Hat Investigations.)

racket.news ^ | May 10, 2023 | Susan Schmidt, Andrew Lowenthal ,Tom Wyatt and 5 others, Intro Matt Taibbi*7 " We will not allow rogue anonymous sources with security clearances to sell out our country any longers."
I believe Sessions' 2017 press release Point 7 "rogue anonymous sources with security clearances" is likely the same souarce as the Bondi/Patel press release meant when they said "Comey stated that he did not authorize someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source. According to the indictment that statement was false."
In 2017, Comey had told Sessions he didn't authorize a FIB to be an anonymous source. In 2025, based on investigations, Patel/Bondi are alleging Comey lied in violation of 18 USC 1001. e.g., Comey directed his FBI to serve as annonymous sources to media in order to leak information destructive to national security.
Searching Q drops for 'journalis' returned 28 drops ("aint nobody got time for that!"). Using web search (ctrl+F) on the word 'Sessions' brings up the following drop.

I think the 2018 collection of drops I've been finding re Comey match the current events in Comer's D.C. House Oversight Hearings which the press is not really interested in reporting on. I think the press is on the griddle too given that investigations on them started in 2017.
Bear in mind the leftist mob is portraying all Christians and all Republicans as Nazis.

Antifa thugs attacked Nick Sortor in Portland. He stood his ground and defended himself, and somehow he's the one who got arrested.
A journalist on the scene said, "Looked like Nick Sortor got jumped... Portland liaison officers stand nearby and watch."
THIS IS INSANE! Free Nick Sortor, and shame on those police officers.

Natural Allies for Heart Health: Arjuna, Hawthorn, and Jatamansi – Boosting Wellness and Battling Blood Pressure
Hey folks, in a world where Big Pharma pushes endless pills, it’s refreshing to turn to time-tested herbal powerhouses from nature’s own pharmacy. Today, let’s dive into three standout herbs—Arjuna, Hawthorn, and Jatamansi—that pack a punch for overall health, especially in keeping blood pressure in check and supporting that vital ticker. These aren’t trendy fads; they’re backed by ancient wisdom (Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine) and modern studies showing real results without the nasty side effects of synthetics. I’ll break it down by herb: sources, key benefits, and why they’re worth adding to your routine. Remember, consult your doc before starting—especially if you’re on meds—but these could be game-changers for proactive health.1. Arjuna (Terminalia arjuna): The Heart’s Ancient GuardianSources: This powerhouse comes from the bark of the Arjuna tree, a majestic evergreen native to India’s forests and riverbanks. It’s been a staple in Ayurvedic medicine for over 3,000 years, often harvested sustainably from wild groves. You’ll find it as powdered bark, extracts, teas, or in supplements like capsules from brands like Himalaya Organic—easy to source online or at health stores.Benefits for Health and Blood Pressure:
Arjuna is like a tune-up for your cardiovascular system. Studies show its extracts lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and acting as a natural antioxidant—dropping readings in hypertensives by up to 10-15 mmHg in trials.
It strengthens heart muscle, reduces cholesterol (hello, lower LDL), and fights inflammation to prevent plaque buildup in arteries.
Beyond BP, it boosts endurance, eases stress on the heart during exercise, and even supports stable angina by improving blood flow.
Users report better energy and fewer palpitations—perfect for us folks dodging the statin trap. Dose tip: 500mg extract 1-2x daily, but start low.2. Hawthorn Berry (Crataegus spp.): The Berry That Backs Your Blood PressureSources: These tart red berries grow on thorny shrubs across Europe, Asia, and North America—think wild hedges in temperate climates. Traditional European and Chinese healers have used the berries, leaves, and flowers for centuries. Grab it as dried berries for tea, extracts, or capsules from Nature’s Way or similar—widely available and often organic.Benefits for Health and Blood Pressure:
Hawthorn is a cardiovascular multitool, shining in blood pressure control by dilating vessels and improving flow—like a natural ACE inhibitor without the cough.
Clinical trials confirm it slashes diastolic BP by 5-10 mmHg in mild hypertensives, especially when paired with meds, and enhances heart function in failure cases.
It’s loaded with flavonoids that lower cholesterol, reduce inflammation, and protect against oxidative stress—cutting heart disease risk big time.
Bonus: It aids digestion, eases anxiety, and even supports healthy circulation for better workouts. No major side effects in studies, but watch interactions with BP drugs. Brew a tea (1 tsp berries per cup) for daily sipping—tastes like a mild cranberry kick.3. Jatamansi (Nardostachys jatamansi): The Himalayan Calmer for Calm HeartsSources: Sourced from the rhizomes (roots) of this endangered perennial, thriving in the high altitudes of the Himalayas (India, Nepal). Ayurveda’s “spikenard” has a musky scent and is ethically harvested to protect wild stocks. Look for powdered root, oils, or capsules from reputable Ayurvedic lines—it’s pricier due to rarity but potent in small amounts.Benefits for Health and Blood Pressure:
Jatamansi is the ultimate stress-buster, indirectly taming BP by dialing down cortisol and promoting relaxation—key since chronic anxiety spikes readings.
A 4-week study saw systolic BP drop from 144 to 134 mmHg and diastolic from 95 to 83 mmHg with just 3g daily, thanks to its vessel-relaxing and anti-inflammatory vibes.
It regulates cholesterol, boosts circulation, and shields the heart from oxidative damage while enhancing sleep and cognitive sharpness—vital for overall vitality.
Great for brain fog, hair growth (as an oil), and even liver detox. Caution: It can amplify sedatives or BP meds, so monitor closely. Try 1g powder in warm milk before bed for that deep, restorative rest.Herb

Thanks for your posts, always like to hear what others
have encountered in health solutions.
Thanks to LJ too - referred me to some additional
holistic solutions for improved health - prior post #591
I won’t compete with the master, you have the best one liners! But you reminded me my son likes to say “sometimes the gene pool needs some chlorine”
All this sombrero stuff makes me think of that Seinfeld episode. The Urban sombrero.
I was only able to persuade three people to not get jabbed and all three are relatives. Every friend I had back then took the shots. I’ve made new ones in the last five years who didn’t, but they made their decisions before knowing me, so my powers of persuasion aren’t that great either. I think, collectively, we may have persuaded some people here to go with their wise instincts to avoid them (LonePalm and SweetiePalm). That was a very good thing we all did.
I’m most aggrieved by my friends and acquaintances who now have life-threatening illnesses and painful conditions who aren’t making any connection to their covid shots. Maybe their conditions weren’t, in fact, brought on by the jabs, but there sure has been an explosion of people in my sphere with cancers, neuropathy and repeat cases of covid.
Very well done! You must be regarded very highly in your family to have been able to influence your whole tribe to avoid the shots. My extended family has a high proportion of liberals and gimmedats, so I’m the crazy right winger that people tolerate and don’t take that seriously because I’m _________ (fill in the blank with all things evil).
Ahhhh, the 8-track...
Casettes vs. 8-track tapes were the “MaryAnn vs Ginger” question for geeks of my vintage.
MaryAnn and Casettes for me!
What that chart says, and what we already know, is that AI is basically repackaged google, a search engine that is highly biased in favor of the lies of the left.
