  1. “We don’t have the authority” [. . . to do what is right . . . ] marks the spot on the front between law and nature.

    Today we merely glance at the headlines to see tyrants spouting forth all around us, as though tyranny is the proper place of man.

    Where will we find the “authority”?

  2. They found the “authority” to treat these people as human beings and to feed them, and not to kill them. Perhaps these Italian troops found their authority with God.

  3. Soul versus competence. Why do we worship only the latter?

    PS – And I am often guilty of this.

  4. A long post (or two) from me, on matters well-deserving contemplation until Monday.

    Victor David Hanson’s latest! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECLmqUYoyLE My suggestion? Go to about the 55m mark.

    The earlier 10 or so minutes finds VDH explaining the Washington biography relevant to the coming wide release Angel Studios film for July 4 — the 250th “Independence Day” celebration — for “Young Washington”. Solid bio, basic info review.

    In the 20m AFTER the 55m mark comes VDH answering the more immediately pressing question for our times, in effect, “Was the Presidency of Joel Biden the worst 4 (and a half, to include Democrat campaign propaganda) years in US Presidential history?”

    YES, it was.

    Detail after detail rolls on, after fact and follies are named. Horrendous, Although I missed if he framed it this way or not, this is the salient question he cogently answers.

    I imagine it’s length here and now stems from Victor David Hanson’s soon to be released new book on the Trump era, since the Biden years are Trump’s presidential interregnum. Simply, a devastating case.

    It truly was Obama’s 3rd term wielding power like a monkey at the carny row through his Deep State worshippers.

    It is worth bookmarking for future reference. It’s damning. And as the leftist revisionists are always scribbling their lies, you’ll want this 20 some minutes of VDH to rebuke these soft heads and CommieKKKrats for years to come.

  5. The thing to understand is that Mussolini’s fascist state was not anti-semitic even having Jews in high office. That changed after Mussolini made a pact with Hitler in the late 1930’s. It wasn’t drilled into the Italians in the same way as the Germans and for a much smaller time

  6. Another post, even longer this time. Recall 2019 and the few COVID years that followed. What really happened, politically, back then? Who’s most responsible for the misadventures we all recall? And who sidelined or blindsided Trump into going along with it?

    First, info from Tulsi Gabby on US funded bio-weapons labs in the world, and “gain of function” genetic engineering. And second, a long exposition about what really happened front m Jeffrey Tucker, an Epoch Times columnist. I have heard his stor nowhere else

    What follows is both sobering and sinister, showing massive political corruption by our Federal Public Health officials.

    REVENGE: Tulsi Gabbard’s LAST Act As Intel Director is to BLOW UP Deep State With DEADLY Revelation…

    9m, 12Jun26, by Benny Johnson.

    HEADLINE GRABBER: the US has sponsored 120 genetic engineering labs throughout the world, including 40 alone in Ukraine!

    Benny first unfurls the Tulsi Gabbard X.com posts by her today, but from 4-8 minutes, he lets Gabbard speak freely in video from the office of the Director of National Intelligence. It is alarming and sobering confirmation.

    But at the beginning of May, comes this comprehensive and sinister revelation, albeit long suspected. Epoch Times columnist Jeffrey Tucked, explains the real course and politics of COVID crisis management at the top of US Public Health from 2019 until today.

    Trump DOJ Begins Delivering LONG-AWAITED [NIH-Covid and Vax] Reckoning

    Interview with Jeffrey Tucker, The Brownstone Institute
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HuaQBFEbuQ

    David Morens, Fauci’s longtime assistant and longtime collaborator of 25 years, has been indicted by the DOJ. Destruction of evidence, as well as bribes and blackmail, are involved.

    The indictment alleges that Morens used his private email to circumvent public records laws and falsified records to suppress
    unsanctioned theories about the origins of the Covid pandemic.

    Tucker thinks it is likely that Morens betrays enough self-conscience of wrong-doing that the Federal prosecutors believe he will sing about others, including Fauci himself.

    The Wuhan Lab in China leaked a new SARS related pathogen, recognized in January to February of 2019. They believed themselves responsible for the leak and would be blamed for unleashing a global pandemic.

    Their first response was to cover up! Maintain as authorities in public service that the Covid virus had zoonotic origins, and not a dangerous lab leak.

    Thus, they unleashed a small team of scientists to lay down the Party Line: they are just ordered to do it. In fact, as FOIA’d material shows, even they disbelieved the case they’d delivered. But they did get lucrative NIH grants from Biden to keep them inline. Corrupt?

    Next, the top cabal found out that Pfizer and Moderna were working on a novel mRNA preventive to vaccinate against Covid. This meant that instead of goats, they could instead hold themselves out as the great heroic saviours of humanity from a world-wide pandemic.

    But then, timing and actual effectiveness questions arose.

    First, if the virus runs through a population, then natural immunity will damper their hoped for “success.” Ergo, they imposed lockdowns, and social distancing rules to keep people from spreading the contagion. Close churches, close schools, ban meetings of any or all sorts.

    President Trump went along with this on the promise that it could be delivered by the summer of 2019.

    Then the cabal realized that this would be an opportunity to drive Trump from office! The deep state hates him. He was a danger to the country, whom many thought was a Russian asset.

    And therefore, they decided to keep the stay at home rules and social distancing measures going through the summer, and it was pushed on into the Fall before the November election. The CDC in mid-March had already recommended mail-in ballots for this emergency. Election systems could be reconfigured to make their output easily bent to secure results for the Democratic candidate, Biden.

    The cabal was on a roll! And thus Trump could not stop the bureaucracies ruling in his stead. And David Morens was privy to all of this scheming and calculating. From assistant to the keeper of Fauci’s secrets to becoming his henchman, outlines his transition as official US Public Health leader.

    But the final problem that did not bend to their will was that the shot did not work — or at least too briefly to becomes a success. Furthermore, data began to accumulate that the defects of the vax were many, and some perturbing.

    So, for a year and then a year and a half this Top Down scheme
    continued just to coverup a lab leak, finding out in the end that the “solution” failed!

    The cabal wasn’t done yet. They covered up the ineffective vax in 202 to ‘22, and it continues down to today.

    Tucker hope this investigation and prosecution exposes it all.
    The missing mass outrage is deafening.

    All THIS, including destroying people’s businesses, their education, and lives, after using the US people as lab rats.
    All of THIS, to coverup secret lab funding in “gain of function” research paid by the US government, and avoid their culpability

    This Public Health cabal betrays “A shocking level of malevolence”, says Tucker, not seen in our lifetimes before, because they schemed to use the US people as their guinea pigs, namely, from no mask to mask and distancing national orders. And the fulfilment of authoritarian dreams by bureaucrats became our nightmares.

    And yet this story, if true, is certainly stranger than any fiction writer would offer in a techno-thriller novel or film.

  7. On a frivolous note, I am not a big fan of soccer. But is anyone else enjoying German “Freddy” and his driving tour of the US on his way to Germany’s matches in Houston?

    AND, the Australian team, called the “Socceroos,” defeated Turkey last night, shocking everyone. I love the name.

  8. RE: The U.S. Government’s third UFO documents release at WAR.GOV/UFO—

    See interesting document 19—a 1971 Australian intelligence assessment—covering the period from 1947 through the late 1960s—of U.S. government efforts to downplay UFOs to the public, while funding many serious, apparently low visibility, research projects into anti-gravity (on the assumption that the propulsion system used by UFOs–which they knew were real, and at this time period thought were extraterrestrial—was some sort of anti-gravitic drive).*

    • See https://www.war.gov/UFO/?search=Australia#CIA-UAP-019-Australian-Dept-of-Defense-Scientific-and-Intel-Aspects-of-the-UFO-Problem

  9. P.S. According to the document linked above both Teller and Oppenheimer were involved in this anti-gravity research.

    If I remember correctly, some years ago, during an Eric Weinstein discussion of his contention that, for several decades now, research has (deliberately?) been focused on the dead end of “string theory,” to the detriment of all other scientific research, Weinstein mentioned the some sort of major anti-gravity research conference was held and, as well, the establishment of an anti-gravity research institute, which sort of faded away (but did it really?).

    So, is the thought that perhaps this focus on string theory was cultivated to direct the great majority of scientific attention away from the real research, which the government and contractors were conducting on anti-gravity?

  10. @Kate:But is anyone else enjoying German “Freddy” and his driving tour of the US on his way to Germany’s matches in Houston?

    It’s cute, but it’s probably marketing like 99% of what we see online… The Swedish fan doing something similar is a travel influencer getting paid to go.
