He’s correct except the last statement “Hardly anyone gives a damn”.
The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in favor of maintaining the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) unique funding structure, shielding the powerful federal agency from congressional oversight.
Since congress voted for no oversight in the funding of the CFPB, Thomas says its constitutional.
Justices Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch provided the dissenting opinions, voicing concerns over the separation of powers and historical precedents.
I think Alito and Gorsuch have the right take on this. Whatever happened to checks and balances?

Prominent Muslim Declares: ‘We Are On The Road To The White House’ - The Islamic Takeover of America Unveiled
Osama Siblani declares the Arab-American community’s unstoppable ascent to political dominance in the U.S., aiming for control from local towns to the White House.
In a recent address on May 10, 2024, at the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn, Michigan, Osama Siblani, the radical editor and publisher of The Arab-American News, declared the Arab-American community’s growing influence in the United States. Speaking at a terror-tied dinner hosted by the Lebanese International Business Council, Siblani proudly asserted, “Forty years ago, we had a mayor for this town who talked about the Arab problem. Guess what? The Arabs are ruling Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, and Hamtramck.”

‘Forced to read script’: IDF finds footage of former hostages Ela, Dafna Elyakim in Gaza
The Elyakim sisters were released as part of the hostage release and ceasefire deal in late November.
The Elyakim sisters were released as part of the hostage release and ceasefire deal in late November and reunited with their mother, Maayan Zin.
The sisters were kidnapped from their father, Noam’s, house in Nahal Oz on October 7th. Noam’s body was found later, while Ela and Dafna were taken hostage. Noam’s partner, Dikla, and her son Tomer were killed by Hamas terrorists during the massacre.
The terrorists who kidnapped Ela and Dafna broadcast the attack on Facebook Live.
That reminds me, is Parker’s Seafood House (restaurant) still operating in DG

where is DG? now I want to go!
It is North American VPN. USA. Still gets blocked sometimes. Often I will have to change the VPN multiple times before I find one that isn’t blocked.

Silver went to $40 in 2011, so still a ways to go. Gold, on the other hand, has skyrocketed over its 2011 high, which was $1700. I would say Silver is still a good buy, but wait for the dips.
And $40 was worth a lot more than it is today. I can’t buy any silver, did buy a small amount years ago. It’s insurance. If I had spare cash I would buy a little silver but.... federal reserve notes are looking increasingly unreliable. Massie has a bill (or whatever) to disband the Federal Reseve. I know President Trump mentioned that too. The US needs to be freed from it!
I had the pleasure of knowing e faye jones. Brilliant man
Thanx for posting this
He even said there might not be an election.
There are only 3 circumstances under which the Constitution could be abrogated and a federal election cancelled or postponed.
Global thermonuclear war. There are contingency plans and executive orders dating from the second Eisenhower Administration that cover interim military government and reconstitution of civilian government. These EOs have been kept updated by subsequent administrations.
A surgical nuclear strike on the District of Columbia. There are contingency plans and executive orders dating from the Kennedy Administration that cover interim military government and reconstitution of the federal government. These EOs have been kept updated by subsequent administrations.
Civil war. There are contingency plans and executive orders dating from the Johnson Administration that cover interim military government until civilian government can be restored. These EOs have been kept updated by subsequent administrations.
There are contingency plans galore if the fertilizer hits the ventilator.

We’ll just have to see what happens.
he Supreme Court’s decision allows the CFPB to continue receiving funds directly from its parent agency, the Federal Reserve, without yearly congressional oversight, the Daily Signal reports.
Established under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act as a response to the 2008 financial crisis, the CFPB’s funding mechanism has been a point of contention.

The problem may not last too much longer, since it’s dependent on or connected with the Federsal Reserve.

My secret plan to expose the harms created by vaccines.
The evidence is very clear: the CDC lied, people died. We need let people know the truth.
Executive summary
Many highly respected doctors and other experts are now willing to speak out about the dangers of the COVID vaccine and other vaccines.
It’s time to give these voices broader distribution.
What if we raised $100M from the medical community to fund a massive coordinated national PR campaign to expose the truth about what the medical authorities have been telling people?
The idea
Create a series of ads and deploy on radio, TV. billboards, print, and online.
Each ad would address a single topic.
The narrator of each ad would be a recognized expert on the topic. The expert can speak to the medical literature, personal experience, expert opinion, emotion, etc.
We start off with just a few short crisp clear ads, e.g., exposing the fact that the COVID vaccines provide no benefit citing a paper in JAMA, and see how that goes and simply add more over time.
Topics, which will be audience tested to see which are the most effective, might include:
Is the COVID vaccine safe?
Is the COVID vaccine effective?
Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo has called for an end to the use of COVID-19 mRNA shots. Other authorities recommend them. What are the key arguments on both sides? And why isn’t there a public debate on this?
Should you vaccinate your child with any vaccines? Which one(s)?
How can you evaluate statements by health authorities in the future?
How many people have been injured or killed by the COVID vaccine?
Is sudden death caused by the COVID vaccine?
Should the COVID vaccine be stopped?
Is liability protection in the public’s interest?
What is the science behind the 6 foot rule?
Can N95 or surgical masks stop a virus? (e.g., do a bear spray video to show visually how ludicrous this advice is)
Did lockdowns help or hurt?
Do vaccines cause autism?
Could vaccines be causing the rise in gender orientation issues or other personality changes? How strong is the evidence?
Is censorship the right way to deal with dissent?
Is it time to no longer trust the medical community?
Does the CDC deserve our trust?
Did the CDC order their own scientists to destroy all evidence linking autism and vaccines?
Why hasn’t the NIH ever funded a study comparing health outcomes of the vaccinated vs. unvaccinated?
What was the rationale given by members of Congress to kill a bill that would have required the NIH to do a vaxxed-unvaxxed study?
Why did the CDC abruptly cut off access to public health databases by researcher Brian Hooker?
Was Andrew Wakefield telling the truth about the MMR vaccine and autism? (Having Wakefield himself do this ad would be awesome)
Why are the world’s top experts on autism admitting that vaccines cause autism?
Why did Congressman Bill Posey change his mind about having CDC scientist William Thompson testify in Congress?
Is there a link between vaccines and gender issues? Depression? ADHD? Chronic disease?
Why are so many people going to 10X as many funerals as they were before the COVID shots rolled out?
Are more people dying suddenly or is it because people are more aware?
What does the Health New Zealand record-level reveal about the safety of the COVID vaccine and why won’t they talk about it?
Statistics from the Santa Clara Dept of public health show that vaccinated get more COVID. Why is this agency ghosting all inquiries about this?
In addressing any of these issues, there are at least two basic approaches and we should try all of them and see which are the most effective. Different people are persuaded in different ways so this is never a one size fits all approach if you want maximum reach. Some people trust authority figures, others want to validate the data themselves, and others can be reached with an emotional appeal. Two of the most obvious approaches are:
Examine a question objectively and provide the evidence on both sides (we seek out experts with opposing views) so that the public can hear the best evidence from both sides so they can make up their minds on the issue. So the ad is just a teaser to get engagement into a very short educational video that presents both arguments
Provide an expert point of view explaining how people were misled directly in the ad, e.g., a 30-second X or TV ad featuring a qualified expert explaining why the vaccines don’t protect against hospitalization and citing evidence from the peer-reviewed literature. For example, we could have 20 of the world’s top autism researchers admit that vaccines cause autism but they would allow us to tell you that; we are sorry we didn’t tell you earlier.
There will be a website which would contain:
High quality background/additional information on each ad topic including more in depth videos like the one in this excellent article:

The list of people in the medical community funding the campaign
A directory of doctors who treat the COVID vaccine injured
A directory of lawyers and their COVID specialties
Summary
Today, we are largely talking to our own echo chambers.
If we really want to move the needle, we need to message people in a way that works for them.
This proposal is one way to do this.
Is there a better way?
Yes, it will be interesting at VW. I know from my experience when I lived in Ohio, that if you were in a union shop, you HAD to be union. I was a member for 11 years, before I slipped on into management. I couldn’t have had the jobs I had without being in the union. Closed shop.
But here in TN, at TVA for example, the IBEW represents a good portion of the electricians and linemen but there are a lot of people in those jobs that are not union members.
I will watch the VW situation closely.
I’m not so much in disagreement with the trade unions - many friends are/were electricians, carpenters, iron workers, and the union trained them and handles their pensions and such. Also, in the trades, if you aren’t good at your job, employers will skip you and bring on someone else if they need additional workers for a big job. My friend was good at his job, and had plenty of work over the years, but as he grew older, they started grabbing the younger guys more often because they could do things that the older people no longer could.
medical attack? To me, anyway, that would mean a band of rogue quacks along with a few flacks from the CDC ambushing her on the way to work and shooting her up with some Chinese fizer poison———

Crashes, blackouts, etc seem to be in vogue. Another thing I seem to be noticing a lot of is house explosions. At least one a week seems to make the news. People can’t smell gas anymore?. So I’m wondering if there are any common threads among the blasts. Anybody looking? The houses that splinter all seem o be somewhat up-scale.
