And there was an even bigger loss that didn't make headlines but I'm told hit Trump personally and it reveals how the military academia and think tank establishment, which gets significant funding and support from Europe, fights back. In December, Trump announced the Golden Fleet initiative at Mar-a-Lago: a new class of Trump-class battleships, 30,000-40,000 tons, armed with hypersonic missiles, railguns, lasers, and nuclear cruise missiles. The USS Defiant. A ship he designed with

@SECNAV

to hold chokepoints like Hormuz. Twenty to twenty-five hulls. The most ambitious surface combatant program since World War II. Within 72 hours, the national security think tank world lined up to kill it. CSIS published a piece titled “The Golden Fleet’s Battleship Will Never Sail,” estimating $9 billion per hull, predicting cancellation before the first ship hits water. The Foundation for Defense of Democracies called it a waste. Retired admirals said the Navy should buy small distributed platforms instead. Every defense analyst in Washington competed to be quoted saying it was impossible. The military industrial establishment, with the help from allied think tanks and colleges, lined up to piss on the plans. The same establishment that can’t build a frigate on time, that delivered the Constellation class years late before canceling it, that produced three Zumwalts instead of thirty, that has presided over the smallest Navy since World War I, lined up overnight to explain why America can’t build big ships anymore. The same people who have no plan to close the destroyer gap that is right now undermining convoy escort operations in the Gulf. The think tanks didn’t offer an alternative. They offered learned helplessness. And that helplessness is the context in which Hormuz is now playing out.

And the tariff decision took away a huge source of revenue to fund it without congress... which won't even vote on the bipartisan SHIPs Act.

DR. ANTHONY CHAFFEE: Avoiding animal fat sacrifices vital nutrients--DHA, EPA, vitamins D3, K2, A, E, choline, cholesterol, and saturated fat--essential for neurological function and child brain development.

Ancestors ate high-fat megafauna (mammoths). Hunters today still target fat-rich animals--whales, seals, polar bears.  Even Arctic fish are fat-rich.  Large animals especially, Arctic species hunted in the Ice Ages, naturally carry a higher percentage of body fat.  Significant inter-abdominal fat is also found in the omentum, mesentery, and around the kidneys. Healthy animals simply have more fat than starving ones.

Due to decades of processed food propaganda, people now discard nutritious subcutaneous and abdominal fat, consuming only lean muscle.  Discarding this fat is not an ancestral practice. 

Avoiding animal fat sacrifices vital nutrients--DHA, EPA, vitamins D3, K2, A, E, choline, cholesterol, and saturated fat--essential for neurological function and child brain development. 

Weight stalls often stem from a "dirty carnivore" diet, [dairy, artificial sweeteners]. When issues arise, people wrongly blame high fat, forgetting high-fat carnivore initially drove their health and weight loss.  Switching to low-fat risks malnutrition and protein poisoning, which can result in weight loss, but of the expensive health.  As health suffers, people blame long-term ketosis on the poor health effects, even though this is against all the best long-term peer-reviewed evidence.  See my YouTube video, Is Ketosis Harmful? for more.

Remember that your hormones like testosterone and estrogen are made out of cholesterol, and avoiding fat will make all hormones suffer.  Eating carbs raises insulin and insulin resistance, which suppresses testosterone in men and estrogen in women.  

Fat is an essential nutrient and is good for you.  Don't avoid fat just because it's trendy and you don't want to give up dairy or sweets.

That is good for you, so eat the damn fat.

I tried to tell everyone for weeks that this was a war to liberate the Iranian people and its government from the crazy British assets known as the Shia clerics and the IRGC. That Trump’s strategy left them prepared for the wrong war, which left the IRGC blind and toothless within days. This war entered the negotiation stage with the weak civilian government very early and that all that was needed was time to complete the hard target elimination and then set terms which made them look like rational actors who chose life not suicide. Those coping with this keep clinging to the idea that the US lost because it didn’t fight the war the experts decided was the war they needed to fight. The bargaining stage of grief begins today for them. Depression (and extreme loss of face) begins in about a week.

JOHN A KONRAD: You cannot load dozens of massive US Merchant Marine cargo ships and still maintain OPSEC. It is impossible.

DR. ANTHONY CHAFFEE: Coffee also has 150,000 other chemicals besides caffeine.

 

Caffeine is a plant toxin.  It's a neurotoxin and an insecticide that was developed to fry the brains of insects trying to eat that plant.  And so that's probably not what you want to put in your body.  

Coffee also has 150,000 other chemicals besides caffeine.  

Search Assistant acknowledges 1,000 chemicals but is unable to identify all 1,000.

Wikipedia identifies some of them, including the insecticides,

The chemical complexity of coffee is emerging, especially due to observed physiological effects which cannot be related only to the presence of caffeine. Moreover, coffee contains an exceptionally substantial amount of antioxidants such as chlorogenic acids, hydroxycinnamic acids, caffeine and Maillard reaction products, such as melanoidins.^[3] Chemical groups, such as alkaloids and caffeoylquinic acids, are common insecticides; their effects on coffee quality and flavor have been investigated in most studies.^[4] Although health effects are certainly a valid taxonomy category, less than 30 of the over 1,000 compounds have been subjected to juried, health-related research (e.g. official potential carcinogen classification — see furans, for example), so health categorization has been avoided.

So you might as well at least get rid of those if you want the caffeine.  If all you want is the caffeine, then just get the caffeine.  And so what I would suggest is if you guys did want to have caffeine, maybe ditch the coffee side of things.  Start with the caffeine pill.  Take like a NoDoz, or something like that . . . .

The Institute for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies has reviewed "Aleksandr Dugin's Foundations of Geopolitics", the book chosen by Jack Posobiec for his summer reading in 2017, and it contains the following: "Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States and Canada to fuel instability and separatism against neoliberal globalist Western hegemony, such as, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists" to create severe backlash against the rotten political state of affairs in the current present-day system of the United States and Canada.

Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social, and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics." And this is exactly what Mike Flynn, Jack Posobiec, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Auron MacIntyre (not his real name), Steve Bannon, the crowd of Roman Catholic Integralists and the Protestant Christian Nationalists (Integralism with Protestant characteristics) have done: Introduced geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social, and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. This is what our constitutional republic has been enduring over the past 4 years: an attempt to create a color revolution model on the Faux-Right that will compliment the color revolution model on the Radical Left that will tear our nation to pieces that will only leave behind a sublated, fractured, techno-feudalist shell of what was once the most powerful nation on earth. So while the crowd of Poso, Flynn, Tucker, MacIntyre (not his real name), the TechBros and the Integralists are whispering in Donald Trump's ear to embrace the mantle of the "Unbound Executive", the same operation on the Left is running the very astroturfed "No Kings" rallies across the country. Dialectical political warfare: back-and-forth, one staged conflict after another to destabilize our nation. And somehow, many of these men and women who are hell-bent on fracturing our nation, are the hand-picked representatives of the press pool at the White House. Simply amazing. I am hoping that @realDonaldTrump is beginning to see the treasonous betrayal of these bad actors. My guess is that he is just now beginning to become aware of the scheme - or at least a few pieces of the strategy.

In 1957, Carl Jung wrote:

"Everywhere in the West there are subversive minorities who, sheltered by our humanitarianism and our sense of justice, hold the incendiary torches ready, with nothing to stop the spread of their ideas." Jung believed only a small “mentally stable” portion of the population keeps things together. His estimate was that only ~40% are psychologically grounded. The rest are one bad day away from breakdown. The point he was making is that most people are not rational. Their emotions possess them and when the pressure gets high enough: - Logic stops working. - Slogans take over. - Fantasy replaces reality. That’s when societies starts feeling like its upside down. Jung called it a “psychic epidemic.” A kind of mass psychological contagion. He estimated that for every crazy person you see, there are ten more that are able to mask their perversity just enough to fit in to society. While they may not break out openly, their "views and behaviour, for all their appearance of normality, are influenced by unconsciously morbid and perverse factors." In that state, irrational people rise to the top, extreme ideas are normalized, and emotion overrides truth. "Their mental state is that of a collectively excited group ruled by affective judgments and wish-fantasies." Their delusional ideas, which hide their fanatical resentment, appeal to the irrational, "for they express all those motives and resentments which lurk in more normal people." "They are, therefore, despite their small number in comparison with the population as a whole, dangerous as sources of infection."

Let me repair the Tweet. Just how bad is the ignorance around the deuterium clearance methods buried on Chromosome #2? In 1949, António Egas Moniz won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. He won it for inventing the lobotomy. The procedure involved inserting an instrument through the eye socket and severing the connections in the prefrontal cortex. It was performed on people experiencing depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and, in some cases, simply behaviour that their family found inconvenient. Walter Freeman, its most prolific practitioner, performed over 3,500. He did them with an ice pick. He called it the "transorbital" lobotomy. He did them in his car, travelling state to state, like a salesman. The medical establishment approved. The prestigious journals published the results. The Nobel committee awarded the prize. The patients often became docile. Compliant. Quiet. Very MKULTRA like. This was recorded as an outcome. It was not until the mid-1950s that serious objections began to emerge. The procedure was not abandoned until well into the 1960s. Tens of thousands of people had their brains irreversibly altered before the consensus shifted. The Nobel Prize was never rescinded. Egas Moniz died in 1955, celebrated. They just needed 1880 Hospital Bells to reverse this and instead got a Rockefeller ice pick TBI. Food played no role here, a subtraction of sound to clear deuterium did.

President Trump’s military demonstrations in Venezuela and Iran were acts of supreme kindness towards Chairman Xi, as they have given him the first **real** information about the Communist Party’s military capabilities. Marxists use language to persuade, not describe, both internally and externally. So the CCP military was never **not** going to develop “a stealth fighter,” or “stealth-detecting radars.” To fail at these tasks would be an unacceptable humiliation. But the question is: did they really? The answer is no. Which is to say: Xi lives in a world where he cannot trust ANY information presented to him by his own system, because it arrives via a filter not only of consensus but also of pride. “The CCP cannot fail, history is on our side!” Except it isn’t. Realty exists. And the total failure of their equipment in VZ and IR was the first time Xi has ever received REAL information about his military’s capabilities. And it’s not good. Xi must now revisit every assumption he has about action in Taiwan. And he is now forced to confront reality, that his staff lie not out of malice but because COMMUNISM DEMANDS YOU IGNORE REALITY.

Interesting days ahead.
