Hopefully next year, we will see less of the conspiracy theory and fake news spreading, support Yoon at all costs, and China related racism from the Setnaffarians.
Happy New Year everyone!
Blessings on everyone this coming new year!
🙂

(a little proud of my F22 Christmas cookies, heh)
This has been a mighty weird year.
The Raging Twenties are just beginning.
Happy New Year everyone!
May your 2023 be excellent as we blindingly charge our way deeper into the uncertainty of the Raging Twenties.
What a blessed year this has been! I believe God will reward us in 2023 if we just lay all our cares on Him
Pray for China. Some reports indicate 9,000 Chinese die every day. Cold medicine is sold out in China; and their agents are buying it up on the US West Coast. Like they did with TP, masks, and sanitizer in 2020…
@Liz, very cool cookies, at least you didn’t make F-35 cookies because they probably would have come out of the stove broken! Happy New Year!
Haha!
Good one, GI!
😀
Hope you all are having a great evening.
Given the Twitter dumps reveal FBI / DOJ / Intel Community / Gov’t / et.al., involvement in recent elections, laptop cover-up, COVID origin, vaccine, treatments, etc. … including free press suppression and MSM compromise…
One has to consider: What else has our gov’t had their hands in? Twitter files only go back so far.
On another site I frequent, ElizabethHope revealed the following. I share it here in case you’ve heard something similar.
I’ll give you an example of censorship from the 9/11 era. I was in NYC on 9/11. A friend from high school was camping in Pennsylvania that day. He and other campers saw an F-16 shoot down the plane headed to the White House. Then the military went around the campgrounds and told people not to tell anyone about what they saw.
I had been taking a night class at Hunter College. When class resumed again after 9/11, I shared this with my class, fully expecting people not to believe me or be extremely shocked. Neither happened. Instead students piped up saying that they heard that too on the radio because campers had been calling up the radio stations immediately after that happened.
GI, don’t give Liz false hope.
She doesn’t have $80,000 to make a cookie.
Mcgeehee, there are two parallel realities going on right now. Despite how opposite they are, somehow they manage to coexist.
In one reality, Trump puts America first by securing the borders, making good trade deals, and creating energy independence… while in the other, he is a Russian agent helping Putin destroy America.
In one reality, covid is a deadly disease that is only held in check by endless boosters… and in another, it is the flu for all but the high risk and the vaccine has killed more children than covid.
In one reality, Russia is clearly working to demilitarize Ukraine, keep NATO off their borders, and protect the oppressed Russian speaking population… but in the other, they are out of ammunition in a war they are losing which shatters their dreams of occupying Ukraine as a stepping stone to European conquest.
The government lies about everything, even when they don’t need to, to add a murky complexity that obscures when they are lying about something they need to.
Once, the majority of this was to advance America’s interestes against enemies.
Now, this is to advance multinational corporate interests against anyone against multinational corporate interests.
Also:
Of course Flight 93 was shot down.
By that time, America had the motive, means, and opportunity.
Any rational person will trade 44 people for whatever mystery happens when a plane intends to fly into a city.
Better everyone goes along with the myth of 40 heroes than the reality of protecting congressional offices.
Lots of people know a part of the story. Nobody says anything. There is no gain and there will be exceptional misery.
Plus you will be banned from Facebook for spreading misinformation.
As we learned in 2022, many conspiracy theories became conspiracy fact.
My spouse was an F16 pilot at the time (we were stationed in Italy).
There is no indication (from him) that flight 93 was shot down. If it happened, those cards are held very tightly. He doesn’t think so, but anything is possible. If I were placing a bet, I would wager on “no”.
Just to add, I asked him and he says, “I don’t think so, but it is possible”.
My opinion is based only on what are (presumably) known facts combined with a clear history of ruthlessly self-protecting and constantly lying government.
There were two armed F-16s patroling Washington DC, as it seems is always the case. They were 10 to 20 minutes away from where Flight 93 crashed. This fact isn’t talked about much but it isn’t a secret.
WTC 1 and 2 had been hit 1 hour and 1 hour and 15 minutes prior to Flight 93 crashing.
The Pentagon was hit 20 minutes before Flight 93 crashed.
It was clear Flight 93 was hijacked and it was clear it was heading toward Washington DC.
Everybody knew what was happening.
‘Mr. Cheney said he had given authorization for hijacked airliners to be shot down.
“Has that directive been transmitted to the aircraft?” Mr. Rumsfeld asked.
“Yes, it has,” Mr. Cheney replied, unaware that the fighter pilots from Langley had not been so instructed. A moment later, Mr. Cheney said, “it’s my understanding they’ve already taken a couple aircraft out.”‘
It can be debated if the pilots were instructed… especially as the unarmed pilots that never caught up to Flight 93 have discussed their plan to give their lives by ramming it.
Motive: Don’t let a 4th aircraft target a city.
Means: Armed F-16s were available and there was political will to use them.
Opportunity: Armed F-16s had time to shoot down Flight 93 exactly where it was shot down.
If the facts change, my opinion can change.
International Criminal Tribunal? Yeah, I think it’s warranted.

@Liz, i just saw this over at AoSHQ:
May the Lord grant wisdom to SWA Executives and cause them to reverse course before they destroy a great airline.
Thanks, Setnaffa…
Yeah he later took that back (a little…but too late).
This was sent from his nice warm office in Dallas. Went over about as good as would be expected.
When my spouse was an installation commander, he stayed up all night numerous times to personally walk the runway and check on the maintainers and really see what was going on. It would be taken a little better if he were personally on the runway in Denver with the snow storm instead of sending an insulting e mail from an office far away.
Sidenote: we really like the new CEO (Jordan), he took over very recently. He even mentioned the IT system needed fixing right away. But it looks like he didn’t get to it. This was really terrible, I feel awful for everyone traveling during the holidays. Also, the other airlines price gouged the desperate, awful situation all around. It will a long while to recover and gain trust back, I hope they eventually can.
For those of you who believe polls:
https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/public_surveys/died_suddenly_more_than_1_in_4_think_someone_they_know_died_from_covid_19_vaccines
Short version:
– nearly half of Americans believe the vaccine is responsible for unexplained deaths
– just over 25% believe they may know somebody killed by the vaccine
Every day, it looks more and more like Safe & Effective wasn’t a lie.
It was TWO lies.
