Ron DeSantis, on the other hand, isn’t a particularly rousing speaker, but he is isn’t afraid to take on the media’s distortions with strength. He is very competent, but he appeared to make his first major compromise this week as he gave approval to the legislative effort to give Disney back their special tax privileges. He appears mollified by Disney’s ruse to reinstall Bob Iger as CEO in order to defuse the public’s rejection of Disney’s pro-LGBT agenda—which continues unabated.
Most of us in Anchorage live within 10 miles of JBER military base, which is also true for most living in Eagle River.
MY NOTES:
Bill Clinton’s PDD-60 is still in effect, which eliminated “launch on first warning,” to instead absorb a first strike, to then launch with what?
As a token of good will, we’ve agreed to keep half of our one-dozen fleet nuclear subs in port at all times, so they can be easily taken out.
For those who live within 10 miles of a military base, blast protection would be needed. He recommends moving instead.
Some kind of fallout shelter is needed if downwind from a nuclear blast, even 600 miles away:
Joel is speaking to Mormons, of whom most probably live in Salt Lake City. He first says, for those living in Utah County (south of SLC), after a nuke is launched above Hill Air Force base (north of SLC), about a 60 mile distance, some kind of fallout shelter will be needed, if they’re downwind. Later, he says if the wind is coming from a different direction, they’ll still need a fallout shelter for the nukes that hit San Diego, Nellis Air Force Base or Area 51. San Diego is 600 air miles from Salt Lake City.
Apparently, a fallout shelter needs to also be substantial, because he says it costs one third the price of a blast protected shelter.
“Only Russia and China can throw an EMP strike [that would take down the entire US power grid], because it takes at least 2 or 3 super-EMP weapons, and it takes about 8 or 9 regular EMP weapons exploded at high altitudes.”
Cars will likely be disabled if they’re within a 300 mile circle under the explosion, so within a 150 mile radius from the explosion. Outside of that, cars “may shut down but will restart, hopefully.”
“There will be famine for at least a year, because the United States does not stockpile any of the [house sized] transformers…. They’re made in China.”
“Without any electricity, there will be massive pillaging.”

US MILITARY AIRCRAFT VS. CHINA AND RUSSIA
The head of US nuclear forces recently claimed that Ukraine is just a warmup for a very long struggle with China, as Sputnik News warns, evading the fact that Russia will join China in the attack on America.
US Navy Adm. Charles Richard, the head of US Strategic Command, recently warned the US would soon face a protracted conflict with China unlike anything it’s faced before. Stratcom is responsible for handling the country’s nuclear weapons, as well as the suite of defensive and offensive information capabilities termed C4ISR.
“We have to do some rapid, fundamental change in the way we approach the defense of this nation,” Richard said at a Navy symposium last week. “This Ukraine crisis that we’re in right now, this is just the warmup,” he said. “The ‘big one’ is coming.”
Richard warned “the [military] ship is slowly sinking” because China is fielding new capabilities faster than the United States, which will soon find itself outnumbered and outclassed on the battlefield.

WHY WE WILL NEVER WIN ANOTHER ELECTION THAT CHANGES THINGS
After the election “results” were finalized this week, Republicans have a paltry 7 seat majority in the House (expected to stay that way) and Democrats have at least half the seats in the senate. The impossible results out of states like Nevada, Arizona and Pennsylvania are evidence of my point that, even though conservatives can still win, from now on it won’t be enough to make as big of a difference. Yes, a few good constitutional conservatives won election in the midterms and they will join the couple of dozen members of the Freedom Caucus in the House to verbally challenge the status quo, but they are up against all 200+ Democrats and almost 180 mainstream or RINO Republicans who won’t listen to them. None of their legislative efforts have passed though I applaud their trying to right the ship of state. This small band of real conservatives does have the power to withhold their vote and deny RINO Kevin McCarthy the Speaker’s chair in the House, but unless a few Democrats cross over and vote for McCarthy, someone else in the mainstream will be chosen. Andy Biggs of Arizona, a real conservative, tried to challenge McCarthy for the nomination and lost big, which shows the sad state of affairs in Republican politics. This week in the brief, I explain why these election results reinforce my belief that there is no hope that this country will be turned around and that there are dark years ahead, even though the Lord does watch over a remnant of the faithful. It follows my sentiments on yesterday’s Thanksgiving holiday, refusing to repeat the worn out prayers thanking God for living in this “free” country, but rather thanking him for the few freedoms we have left and a little more time to prepare for what’s coming.

Blaming Trump for the Failure of a “Red Wave” Midterm Election
The mainstream media talking heads and Democrat partisans were jubilant that the predicted “red wave” of anti-Biden backlash didn’t seem to materialize in Tuesday’s midterm elections, except in Florida. By Wednesday the political analysis had changed from “Democrats doing better than expected” to “Conservatives are starting to blame Donald Trump after the Republican “red wave” failure.” Following that there was positive talk by mainstream and establishment pundits for Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida being the only Republican politician they eagerly view as capable of denying Trump the GOP nomination in 2024. Leave it to the mainstream media to spin what should have been a political disaster into an anti-Trump victory. But Trump was hardly responsible for the surprisingly poor results for key Republicans. Completely missing in the mainstream news analysis is any hint that election computer and ballot fraud is still with us, and although the outward results paint the same picture, the evidence of vote tampering is more carefully hidden than last time. The 2020 election was indeed stolen from Donald Trump, but his attorneys failed to use the best evidence of both computer vote flipping, disappearing Trump votes, and massive illegal ballot drops that I presented in my election coverage in the WAB. This legal failure by the Trump team to document the crime provided the mainstream media the easy excuse to label anyone believing in election fraud as an “election denier.” This week I will cover the various factors, including vote fraud, that led to this second election fiasco in a row.

THE WRONG PEOPLE ARE PROMOTING DESANTIS
Along with blaming of Donald Trump for the lack of a powerful red wave, the establishment is clearly trying to promote Ron Desantis to challenge Trump for the Republican nomination for president in 2024.

RISE OF CHINESE MILITARY NATIONALISM
News Wars citing RT.com reports that China’s dictator for life, Xi Jingping vows to elevate the Chinese military to “World-Class Status” by 2027—right in the middle of my WWIII prediction window when I believe China will be ready to join Russia in a pre-emptive nuclear strike on the West.

Alex Jones Ordered to Pay $965 Million to People who Claim they were Defamed:
Juries can really be stupid, especially when the judge is so biased she rigged the trial against defendant Alex Jones. The jury in Waterbury, Connecticut decided that Infowars host Alex Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems, should pay nearly a billion dollars for spreading a conspiracy theory that the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School never happened. It was a mistake I warned Alex about, and he later changed sides and admitted it was real (though instigated by government for gun control purposes).
Mainstream and alternative media often make mistakes but they are never sued with defamation, especially when they don’t name names. But the Plaintiffs distorted defamation law and the judge refused to allow Jones his first amendment defense.

UKRAINE WAR UPDATE

Elsewhere in his speech Friday, Putin characterized the Nord Stream pipeline explosion as “sabotage” which I believe is true. But that doesn’t mean that Putin was innocent either. He was using Russian gas to leverage concessions out of Europe. Putin said,

The Real Story of the Jan 6th Protest and the Treatment of Jan 6 Prisoners
Here are two in-depth research pieces that are must-see or reads. The first is the new Epoch Times documentary, free during the month of September: The Real Story of Jan 6. Watch it as soon as possible.
It concentrates on the police provocations and deliberate tactics used to anger the crowd and induce them to fight with police, which if proven, would be grounds for an entrapment defense. They also explain the specific scenes where protestors are seen attacking police at the entrance to a tunnel. The media describe the scene as protestor criminal violence, but the Epoch Times found out that police inside the tunnel had turned on an innocent woman inside named Rozanne, and were beating her mercilessly. Protestors where battling police to get inside and rescue her. It makes a big difference to know the context of the film clips.
They carefully cover the issue of “suspicious actors” like Ray Epps, fomenting violence and being given deference by police. There is extensive filming of other masked agents provoking people to break through capitol windows that had been cracked. They were encouraging people to pull the glass out and go inside. Victoria White tells how there was a small team of masked men who brought hammers to the protest to break out impact resistant glass and how Trump supporters tried to stop them. “Who brings hammers to a peaceful protest?” she asks. The bad guys worked as a team to pull the Trump people off their teammates doing the damage, to allow it to continue.
None of them have been identified by the DOJ (they didn’t even try) and none have been prosecuted. The presence of agent provocateurs changes everything about the justice of selective prosecution. The video also tells how OathKeepers worked to de-escalate violence between the few violent protestors and police, contrary to negative news reports painting Oathkeepers as the problem.

Ukraine Takes the Offensive, but Can it Win the War?
[…]
Even conservatives who should know better are making the mistake of seeing Russia as the victim of Western aggression. They are sincere in being anti-globalists, but they make the mistake of thinking that as in the phony war on terror, anyone the globalists and neocons attack must be good guys. No one is a good guy in world affairs anymore, especially Russia and China.

WHAT TRUMP DID AND DID NOT DO WHILE PRESIDENT
I think it’s time for a solid review of what Trump did and did not accomplish while president. Ollie Williams presents this overview: “Looking back at the presidency of Donald Trump.” I’ll add my comments where I disagree.
Joel Skousen (World Affairs Brief, 9/2/22) summarizes:
Debunking the Claim that the SARS-Cov-2 Virus does not Exist.
Dr. Meryl Nass Debunks the idea that the SARS-CoV-2 ‘Virus Isn’t Real’ and has ‘Never Been Isolated.’ Researchers have isolated the virus even if there are technical questions about how they did it, and how accurate the analysis of it is. I have always been skeptical of the claim that viruses don’t exist, and that all viral disease can be blamed on environmental toxins. But toxins are even easier to identify than a virus, being chemical compounds, and no toxins have been identified as the cause of, say, measles, mumps and chicken pox. The toxin theory also doesn’t adequately explain contagion with identical symptoms year after year. And finally Dr. Nass documents what Dr. Kaufman has always complained about—has any virus ever been truly isolated and genetically documented? She documents where and how.

Joel Skousen writes:
The Epoch Times has done a great work in ferreting out the hidden motives behind the raid on Mar-a-Lago. They found they are a direct result of Trump’s RICO lawsuit against the Clintons and the FBI agents involved in the Russia Hoax—operation Crossfire Hurricane. It confirms what I had previously speculated, that the FBI was trying to retrieve the documents exposing the FBI’s illegal acts that they already knew were in Trump’s possession—the same ones he declassified and which the DOJ refused to formalize.
…the FBI already knew Trump had these documents at Mar-a-Lago. They went to get them to deny Trump their use. Everything else said about the case is just a cover.
Exhaustive Study Debunks Link Between “Chemical Imbalance” and Depression — The serotonin hypothesis
[In] a major new review of the research University College London Psychiatry Professor Joanna Moncrieff and a team of five other top European researchers found “there is no evidence of a connection between reduced serotonin levels or activity and depression.” The primary research indicates there is “no support for the hypothesis that depression is caused by lowered serotonin activity or concentrations.”

DEBUNKING LINK BETWEEN DEPRESSION AND CHEMICAL IMBALANCE
I still remember the big Trump sign in Anchorage on Northern Lights and Old Seward: “DRAIN THE SWAMP” — hoping it would happen.
Instead, Trump filled his cabinet with swamp creatures, This sounds like Trump is trying to learn, but Joel thinks not enough, and explains why.

TRUMP CLAIMS HE CAN STILL DRAIN THE SWAMP
Chris Menahan of Information Liberation says that Trump is planning on purging the Deep State if re-elected. Trump supporters love to believe this, but it’s not possible because even an ardent student of true conspiracies—the only record of who is Deep State and who isn’t (incomplete as it is)—couldn’t root out all the conspirators, except a few who participated in Deep State cover-ups like the assassination of JFK, or Vince Foster, or 9/11. But hope dies hard with Trump supporters so here is the story and the claims:
From Joel Skousen, World Affairs Brief, 7/22/22
“They Got Her,” Says Trump Who Suspects Foul Play in Death of Ivana: The official story is that Trump’s former wife had heart problem and fell down the stairs, but Ivanka saw the body and says, Ivana was black and blue all over her torso, but no bruises on head or legs—falling down the stairs always ends up hitting legs and head. She had just had a physical and an EKG, with no signs of heart problems. The Medical Examiner first called it a coronary embolism and then changed to blunt force trauma, but that would have to be a blow to the head to be fatal.

OUR WOKE LEADERS’ ASSAULT ON WESTERN CULTURAL VALUES
In the name of diversity and tolerance, American social, governmental, corporate, and even religious leaders are pushing or buckling under as the woke agenda sweeps the Western world in promoting homosexuality, abortion, transgenderism, and the dismantling of all traditional conservative and Christian values. But there’s an even more sinister hidden agenda behind all these claims of protecting the “freedom to choose” and tolerance. By giving gay marriage, abortion, contraception, and transgender alterations legal status, and protection under federal law, those that oppose these issues can then be legally prosecuted under hate and anti-discrimination laws. In other words, they are not content with your toleration or even the ability of private woke corporations to censor you and all that you oppose—they want you legally silenced, if not removed from society entirely.

MRNA VACCINE MANUFACTURERS REQUEST NO FUTURE CLINICAL TRIALS
Technically, only Pfizer has made the request to the FDA to forego future trials of mRNA gene therapy “vaccines” but I’m sure Moderna and the others would jump on the bandwagon if approved. Dr. Rogers explains this scam in this Rumble video.
He explains that Big Pharma wants to skip future clinical trials because mRNA technology allows them to “reformulate” the RNA for any shot without changing the basic jab. The court-ordered release of the Pfizer documents were so damaging, that it’s no wonder Pfizer wants the FDA to make sure they don’t have to show or perform trials ever again for their latest vaccines.

Dr RYAN COLE ON THE LONG TERM DAMAGE OF COVID VACCINES
Over the recent past, I’ve covered a lot of information about the dangers of the Covid mRNA gene therapy “vaccines.” Sometimes the volume of information becomes overwhelming and overly technical. So, this week, I was excited to view a recent interview with Dr. Ryan Cole, a renowned pathologist from Idaho.
I myself don’t like most video interviews which take forever to get to the point. But this video is different. It’s only 20 minutes and is succinct, definitive and presented in Dr. Cole’s fine rational demeanor. I know all of you have friends or loved ones that succumbed to the propaganda and took the jab, and perhaps even boosters. If there’s one video I can recommend you give to people to watch it is this one. Most honest people would think twice about taking another mRNA vaccine after seeing it, and will never take another booster shot.
[INTERVIEW] A Lipid Nanoparticle + A Gene Is a Nuclear Bomb -Dr Ryan Cole, MD
As a pathologist analyzing diseased body tissues, Dr. Ryan Cole, MD, (Twitter @drcole12) has seen an alarming and wide-ranging increase in injuries from Covid-19 injections…what he calls a “nuclear bomb.” Miscarriages, heart conditions, cancers and compromised immune function are just some of the harms that Dr. Cole (rcolemd.com) is fighting to make the public aware of.
Here are a few highlights:

Police Report Proves Plainclothes Electronic Surveillance Unit Embedded in Jan. 6 Protest:
Embedded ESU members wore a specific ‘bracelet on their left wrist identifying them as MPD personnel.” Reports the Epoch Times. The article reviews the evidence of other plain clothes agent provocateurs as well. It’s obvious that the Deep State planned all along to commandeer Trump’s protest against the stolen election and lure supporters into the Capitol.

Watergate was Designed to Fail—To get rid of Nixon. Jim Hougan, noted authority on the Watergate scandal, documents in this article how the entire Watergate break-in, ran by current and former CIA spooks was designed specifically to fail and get caught—all to get rid of Nixon. It is a fascinating read.
From World Affairs Brief, 6/24/22
CRT Built Into Civic Bill: According to National Review the Biden administration is pushing the Civics Secures Democracy Act (CSDA) so they can push Critical Race Theory (CRT) on every public school in the country. Over a six-year period, this $6 billion pot of competitive grant money will create a de facto national curriculum — just like Common Core. States desperate to tap into the federal gravy train will have to tailor their civics and history grant proposals to the Biden administration’s liking. West Point is already pushing CRT down the throats of cadets.
