From what I have viewed on hopefully reliable sources on podcasts (Jordan Maxwell, Randall Carlson, ParallelMike, Graham Hancock et

al on Instagram), the Bible Story has many iterations from alternative spiritual disciplines, all relative to astronomy, the 12 planets, solar max and minimums, the astro clock, the Equinoxes, solstices and connections to Egypt pyramids. Only connect to 'Christ' is its Greek meaning of anointed with "oil" .... The part of brain called the 'Chrism', next to Colostrum (sp?) which is activated upon physical discipline and meditation. Just a thought. However .... Why is the date of Easter determined by the preceding Full Moon cycle if there is no relevance to previous statement?

Isn't all current geopolitics and empire based on the Symbolism of the past mythological doctrines? Look at the word "Vatican", which is etymologically based on the name 'Vatica', the goddess of the Underworld, who was renowned for trapping the Souls of individuals in the dark underworld. Did either of you see the 'ritual' of the funeral of late pope? All Ku Klux Klan masks and inverted crosses.

Matt and Doug - please read Jeff Childers Coffee and Covid emails if you aren’t already. The only person that I am aware of who really gets what DT is trying to do and the plan behind it.

See excerpts from his (free) letter:

Indictments have started!

The media burst into sulphurous flames yesterday, and the hot takes exploded like a meth-lab accident in a Chinese fireworks factory. Yesterday, Axios ran its story headlined, “‘Unbelievable’: Congress erupts over FBI arrest of Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan.” Federal officials arrested two judges yesterday. Wisconsin Representative Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) cried, “The Trump administration again is breaking norms in how it's dealing with the legal system, and normalcy. This is stuff I expect from Third World countries.”

In case you somehow missed the excitement, here’s what actually happened. About eight days ago, back on April 18th, Milwaukee Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was presiding over an unremarkable criminal case involving a Mexican national charged with three counts of battery and domestic abuse. A couple of his victims were seated in the gallery waiting to testify. The accused, Jose Flores-Ruiz, was an illegal alien already deported in 2013, but it didn’t stick and he came back to commit more crimes.

Because of all the media misinformation, here is a link to the government’s complaint so you can read it for yourself. Note that a federal judge signed Judge Dugan’s arrest warrant— she had ample due process. Or, if you’re more of a listener, here’s Pam Bondi’s explanation about both arrests from a Fox interview yesterday (8:00).

Anyway, before Flores-Ruiz’s hearing started, court staff snuck word to Judge Dugan got word that FBI, CBP, and DEA agents had staked out the gallery and the hallway outside the courtroom, and were waiting for the hearing to finish so they could arrest Lopez. This enraged the judge (“this is absurd!”). So she sprang up —or at least attempted a rough approximation of ‘springing’— and moved ponderously into action. She first adjourned the hearing, grabbed the judge in the courtroom next door for backup and, after demanding to see the agents’ warrant, ordered them to go to the Chief Judge’s office. They complied.

While agents were on the phone with the Chief Judge, Judge Dugan’s courtroom deputy came over and warned them the judge was trying to “push through” Lopez’s hearing, to get him out of the building while the agents were tied up talking to the Chief Judge. Meanwhile, back in her courtroom, Judge Dugan ordered Lopez and his attorney to come up to the bench, and after a frenzied, whispered conversation, personally escorted them out the courtroom’s private back door reserved for jurors and prisoners.

Lopez fled using a back elevator and sprinted off down 9th street. Fortunately, an alert agent spotted the serial crimedoer leaving. The team scrambled and a dramatic foot chase ensued. They finally tackled Lopez near State Street and 10th.

Yesterday morning, the FBI filed a federal complaint and shortly thereafter arrested Judge Dugan at the courthouse. She’s charged with obstruction of ICE proceedings (18 U.S.C. § 1505) and harboring or concealing a person to prevent discovery and arrest (18 U.S.C. § 1071)— both serious felonies.

The federal criminal complaint identifies several witnesses who saw everything that happened.

Later in the day, Judge Dugan was released without bond after making her first appearance in federal court. If convicted, she certainly can’t be a judge, and will probably lose her law license. Even without a verdict, the pending charges are a huge headache for the Chief Judge. How can Judge Dugan continue to preside over other criminal cases while she’s under indictment herself?

Will Wisconsin’s left-leaning Supreme Court remove her?

🔥 Speaking of removed judges, remember New Mexico Judge Juan “Joel” Cano, who let a 23-year-old Tren de Aragua gang member live for free in his guest house? The FBI arrested him yesterday, too, along with his wife, ‘Nancy.’ You won’t believe what they charged the now-former judge with.

In March, HSI (Homeland Security Investigations) arrested Venezuelan illegal alien and guesthouse resident Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, who is suspected of being in Tren de Aragua — a notorious, ultra-violent criminal gang that’s basically the Venezuelan version of MS-13. They nabbed him at Judge Cano’s home, where the family had both put him up and given him assault weapons to play with.

When FBI arrested him, they found Ortega had multiple cellphones. Afterwards, agents realized that one phone was missing. They realized this after Ortega told them. (They’d offered to let him make a phone call and gave him the phones they’d seized; Ortega said the one he wanted to use wasn’t there.) So this week, they returned to the Cano household with a new search warrant.

I promise I am not making this next part up.

During his FBI interview, former judge Cano —after being Mirandized— straight-up confessed that he’d found Ortega’s missing cellphone, smashed it with a hammer, and threw it in a city dumpster. Cano explained he did it because he knew it had pictures and videos of Ortega with guns— which were direct evidence of federal gun crimes and gang activity.

Cano’s confession is such an unlikely and improbable fact that you should see the allegation for yourself:

It’s hard to reckon how a long-time judge would agree to talk to FBI agents at all, much less after getting his Miranda warnings and without a lawyer. Regular readers will recall that, when I first reported this story, I suggested Judge Cano should have already retained a good criminal defense lawyer. All I can say now is, he should’ve read C&C.

Cano didn’t just smash a phone; he smashed his oath, his robes, and his integrity. Yesterday, in the harsh morning light of the bright Las Cruces sun, FBI agents arrested Cano and charged him with destroying evidence to protect a defendant (18 USC §1512). The charge allows up to 20 years in prison. As a first-time offender, he’d probably only get 12-24 months, but the sentencing guidelines require enhancement for cartel involvement.

Cano is in deep doo-doo. Regardless of whatever happens in the criminal case, he admitted destroying evidence of crimes— a violation of ethics that virtually requires disbarment. New Mexico’s Supremes already barred him from ever again serving as a judge, so his law license is almost certainly a goner.

Here’s a link to the federal complaint against former Judge Cano.

Remember this: the media was present for both arrests. We’ll return to that shortly.

🔥 First, let’s consider what all this means. I’ll start with my point of view: Both Dugan and Cano must be prosecuted aggressively — not just for individual accountability, but to send a clear signal that domestic sabotage of immigration enforcement is criminal, not heroic. Otherwise, the rule of law, already bleeding out, will die on the operating table.

The two cases are remarkably similar. Behold:

Sitting judges,

Engaging in criminal acts,

To protect illegal alien defendants involved in violent crime and/or cartel activity,

Directly interfering with federal law enforcement.

The juxtaposition of the two eerily similar cases involving two judges in two different states arrested on the same day paints a picture. It’s a dystopian picture of decentralized, ideological sabotage of immigration enforcement inside the judiciary itself. Judges are no longer passively ignoring federal law through non-cooperation but actively working against it through affirmative criminal acts of their own.

It’s an insurrection from behind the bench.

Aggressive prosecution isn’t optional. It’s mandatory. If we wish to retain the ‘rule of law,’ that is.

🔥 The political fallout was explosive. Corporate media, Democrats, and BlueSky’s blue-checks were apoplectic, practically foaming at the mouth. In situ, silver-haired boomer protestors, supported by canes and walkers, popped up outside Dugan’s courthouse.

Progressive commenters saw the arrests as nothing less than an assault on the judiciary:

Speaking of Representative Raskin, the former chair of the J6 committee and one of the House impeachment prosecutors during Trump 1.0 called the arrests a “dangerous new front” in Trump’s war against judges:

image 10.png

Democrat media consultant David Doak, apparently having already forgotten four years of enthusiastic lawfare against the former president, and the rule of turnabout being fair play, announced the United States is now officially a police state:

But some progressive legal experts were slightly more cautious. MSNBC’s legal expert, for example, wondered whether this was the “best way to handle” what are admittedly bad-looking facts for the judge. He said, “It doesn't look great for the judge, no matter how you slice it. But was this kind of escalatory action the best course of action, to actually go and arrest her, take her to court, and federally charge her? That's a big step.”

If I ever get to the point of having too much money, I plan on helping others. What that looks like I'm not sure, but it's a nice problem to have. I think in essence, business works like that... you give a service to someone, to then get paid for that service. But in helping others, the payment comes in a different form.

Smokescreen??? Did you not watch the huge throngs crossing the southern border for the last 4 years? Do you REALLY believe all of them were model citizens, wanting to contribute to our society? That requires incredible naivety. You clearly suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome. (Hating everything Trump does, regardless of whether it's good or bad for the nation.)

The movie, "The Shoes of the Fisherman," was a wonderful story! I first became aware of it when I played a recording of a composition by Charles Mingus called, "The Shoes of the Fisherman's Wife Are Some Jive-Ass Slippers," for a friend. When I told him the title, he misunderstood me, and thought I was talking about the movie. Later, I saw it, and was impressed!

Americans are so greedy. The American dollar was the gold standard, there was not another currency in the world that was worth more. What do they do….they buy bitcoin. This nonsense that Trump is pulling was done on behalf of Putin. He wants nothing more than to have America

It requires a leap of incredible imagination to believe his motivations are shaped by putin .

If nothing else don't you think putin wants the US to stop supplying the weapons and intel that allow for strikes deep in russuan territory?

And yet they are happening still .

If he wanted to help Putin, he certainly would not have embarked on the mission to stop illegal immigration or root out the corruption in our government. And the administration has not bought ANY bitcoin. They are simply not selling what they have confiscated from drug dealers. And that has been a huge win for the US since bitcoin is currently over $96,000. Trump has risked his life and lost immense amounts of money by running for president. WHAT DID HE HAVE TO GAIN? Trump is a real patriot.

illegal immigration is just a smoke screen to prevent the US people from realizing what Trump and Elon were up to. I hope people do not loose their old age pensions because Elon says it is corruption. If there are any children getting social security, it is because their parents are dead.

Trump himself is selling bitcoin to anyone who wants a favour from him and he can pocket the cash and no one is the wiser. how do you think the Tate brothers bought their way out of prison and home to the US?

Apparently, you don't understand BTC (no one is the wiser?). BTC is NOT anonymous. And what evidence do you have that he ever owned BTC? Almost no CCs (crypto coins) are completely anonymous because every transaction is posted on the decentralized block chain ledger.

If “nothing in politics happens by accident” then the action contradicting various campaign promises are not so mysterious, are they?

Especially since these moves are not novel, have been made in many, more or less continuous, past iterations?

Dollar-holders won’t “lose” everything … everything will be taken - also as has happened in previous iterations, dollar & otherwise/guys.

Being Far, Far and Away is good. But not as good as it used to be.

Tech has, as I’ve mentioned before, dramatically reduced that scale.

(Sometimes you have the Chilean Sea Bass & sometimes the Chileans seize the bass in you. See the Whitney Webb pcast lure of neurorights, markets, fish on ice & that unmistakable Denmark odor.)

Sell the gold. Buy BTC (Bitcoin). You can go anywhere and still have control of it. Countries like Greece can't stop people from selling their land and taking the proceeds out of the country anymore.
