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.

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.
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.

Reposting:
I was looking through my collection of Q drops that have videos as well, and I found this one, I admit that I am brain damaged, but it looks to me if you add the numbers up that brings us to 2026. 2018-2019 plus 6 more years. If I’m wrong, please correct! If I’m right, it looks as though definitely the cleanout action is this year.

Listen very carefully (again).
Note past (2) years.
Note next (6) years.
You were told what was going to happen.
You were told what battles we face. Strategic.
Pre_planned.
Patriots in control.

Love me some Larry, lol
A system of morality which is based on relative emotional values is a mere illusion,
which has nothing sound in it and nothing true.

Lets take a typical early summer day - maybe in the 60s overnight, and around 90 in mid-afternoon. Generation dispatching is set up to utilize the lowest cost of generation that is available for the next incremental increase in demand.
I'll use TVA as an example because it's most familiar to me. At 3 AM on a very mild night, system demand might be 14,000 megawatts. The 3 nuclear plants, if they're on, will be running at full output. They don't reduce output even though it's very possible. There are reasons for that and they're pretty important, but suffice to say that outside of a grid emergency, a nuclear plant won't drop down its generation at night.
It just so happens that nuclear plants are among the lowest cost, in terms of fuel, of all resources so if you need something on line with the throttle stuck wide open, the nukes are a good choice.
Every plant, every generator or resource has an incremental cost/megawatt. So at low load periods, the generation that is cheapest will be utilized while more expensive generation will be at its minimum output or off line. Hydro generation is generally run according to weekly schedules, based on rainfall, navigation of the waterways, and providing adequate cooler water downstream for plants that need river water for that function (of which few are left). There isn't enough water available to run hydro plants 24/7, so the schedule allows to run them when the energy is most needed, and allow adequate river flow in between.
Anyway, as far as price, in terms of dispatching generation, the cost/mw is the most important though there are grid reliability concerns as well. The cost spread is pretty wide - around 8-10 dollars per megawatt hour for the nukes, combined cycle gas runs around, say, 15-25 while coal can run from around 20-50 depending on the unit. Simple-cycle gas might run in the $40-80 range and combined cycle plants usually have a feature called duct burners that will add a little extra heat to the exhaust to allow a little extra output from the associated steam turbine. Duct burners are around the same price as simple cycle gas turbines. A few gas turbines, usually much older units, may cost $80-100 per megawatt hour so you use those sparingly and they sit idle most of the time (and often in disrepair).
So you want to bring up the hydro as available, based on the schedule as demand increases, then bring the combined cycle gas plants up to their normal full load, coal, depends on the unit, as does gas. As the load starts coming up in the morning, you start raising output on the combined cycle plants and coal plants. You bring on hydro as it is scheduled. When you start reaching peak, then the simple cycle gas turbines will be brought into play along with duct burners. Each incremental step costs more than the last, and on a day with a very wide spread between minimum and maximum demand, you can have a 10:1 cost ratio.
There is another piece of the pie - purchasing power from other entities. Price varies according to on peak vs off peak, and the purchase period contract. You can buy from others for economic reasons or for high demand, or for emergency situations. And there is a market price for power, and it can get quite high at peak periods, much more expensive than even those old worn out gas turbines.
As for energy storage, there are some moderately small battery systems out there, and TVA (and others) has a very nice pumped hydro storage facility that is generally pumped at night, and run during the day to meet demand and to provide some contingency supply in the event a large generator trips off line (which they occasionally do). Raccoon Mountain pumped hydro is a pretty large facility, and people that actually operate the generation system would really like about 3 more just like it. Because sometimes, the peak demand is double what the minimum load is in a 24 hour period, and its hard to bring generation down low enough to follow the minimum without taking units off line.
deregulation - they split the bills between distribution, transmission, and generation. You can’t change distribution companies because those are the wires that connect your house to the rest of the grid. Ditto transmission - it’s there and it takes nearly an act of congress (or a major blackout) to add to it.
But generation, at least in Ohio, that’s what they sought to de-regulate. So while I buy my power through Firstenergy Corp, my actual watts are supplied by Energy Harbor, LLC. So I have a contract for a set price for the generation portion of my power, but the distribution entity still nicks me for about 40% -50% of my monthly bill.
Really not a bargain at all - it just adds a layer of complexity to the experience. If there were more generation entities, there might be some actual price-reducing competition, but federal regulations (EPA, etc) took care of that.
Follow the herd? No one here should have to be a border collie to a sheep.
another oops from America’s Last Line Of Defense
AI Overview
Based on the provided search results, the claim that Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (MTG) stock portfolio gains resulted from “gifts” of shares from companies owned by George Soros and Bill Gates is false.
This specific claim originates from a satire/parody Facebook page, “America’s Last Line Of Defense,” and is not supported by real-world financial disclosures.
Here is the breakdown of the information found regarding her stock portfolio:Source of Portfolio Growth: Greene’s stock portfolio grew significantly (reported as up to 476% since 2021) due to active trading and a 30.2% gain in 2024, not gifts.
Active Trading: Greene has disclosed hundreds of trades, including buying $3.89 million in stocks in 2024 and over $2.8 million in 2025 alone.
Portfolio Management: Greene has stated, “I don’t place my buys and sells,” and that she has a “fiduciary agreement” with a portfolio manager who handles her investments.
Types of Stocks: Her portfolio includes holdings in major companies such as Tesla, Amazon, Apple, Nvidia, and Palantir, along with U.S. Treasury Bills.
Controversy: Critics, including Democratic lawmakers, have called for investigations into her trades, alleging they were well-timed with market-moving announcements (e.g., tariff pauses).
The search results show no connection between her portfolio and donations from George Soros or Bill Gates.
