Why I’m leaving the Democratic Party.
The Tulsi Gabbard Show Published originally on Rumble on October 11, 2022
I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms enshrined in our Constitution, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, are dragging us ever closer to nuclear war.
I believe in a government that is of the people, by the people, and for the people. Unfortunately, today’s Democratic Party does not. Instead, it stands for a government of, by, and for the powerful elite.
I’m calling on my fellow common sense independent minded Democrats to join me in leaving the Democratic Party. If you can no longer stomach the direction that so-called woke Democratic Party ideologues are taking our country, I invite you to join me.

Report, Durham Wrapping Up
Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 10, 2022 | Sundance
After several days of research interviews in a locked down and closed Washington DC, in the spring of 2020 I sat alone in a hotel room and pondered how to boil down the essence of the most critical information into one question.
Multiple days of questions and contacts accompanied three years of background research and 600+ pages of retrieved open-source citations sat on the table in front of me. The exact same material was organized into two assemblies.
•The first set was organized in the timeline for when the documents were released or became public. •The second set was the result of taking the documents and putting them into the chronological order of when the events took place. As I stared at it, the answer became obvious…
Ask people a simple question, “what was the purpose of former FBI Director Robert Mueller’s two-year probe?”
Returning to those same discussions and going back into the individual silos, that new question was asked, “what was the purpose of Mueller?”
The responses showed the reality.
Every single person in Washington DC, across the broad spectrum of institutions from all branches – including media, would speak plainly that Mueller’s team objective (from May 2017 to April 2019) was to use the authority of his appointment to block any review of the preceding events he was presumably investigating.
Yes, in private conversation everyone stated a similar core truth, Mueller was the tool for DC to protect itself against accountability.
That reality was a bitter pill to swallow, because accepting that common response in private stood in contrast to those same voices talking publicly about the honor and respect of Robert Mueller. The charade was clear.
Publicly everyone stated Robert Mueller and his team were embarked upon a valid enterprise. However, privately everyone acknowledged Robert Mueller and his team were operating to cover-up the prior corrupt activity of the DOJ, specifically the DOJ National Security Division, and FBI – specifically the FBI counterintelligence operation.
Despite my having researched, discovered and assembled irrefutable evidence of the depth of corruption; it was challenging to accept that no one would openly confront it. I was, like most at the time, naive to just how systemic and entrenched the problems had become during the Obama era.
Thankfully, there was a protection around me, and I was directly warned not to take anything to the FBI. I think the last three years have provided multiple citations for what would happen to anyone who would confront main justice corruption by reaching out to the FBI. Approximately 8 months after my own experience I delivered that same warning message forward. Two years later the recipient of my 2020 warning has become a target, exactly as feared.
The way DC officials, politicians and the bureaucrats who oil the machinery, created this modern system of usurpation is outlined in the construct of The Fourth Branch of Government.
Four modern pillars of national security maintain the superseding branch that stands above the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches. They are: (1) The DOJ-NSD; (2) The Dept of Homeland Security; (3) The Office of the Director of National Security, and (4) the FISA court. Each of these institutions uses the shield of national security to protect themselves from oversight.
You can clearly see how the Fourth Branch operates when you look at the recent judicial branch deferment to the DOJ-NSD on the issue of President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago documents and the classification argument.
The courts defer everything under the auspices of “national security,” thereby making their judicial ability to check the executive ineffective. The congress also defers their oversight role under the auspices of “national security” by refusing to conduct legislative oversight. This ‘national security’ dynamic is an outcome of how the post 9-11 Patriot Act was put into place. The DHS and ODNI were created in this process, and later came the DOJ-NSD as created by Attorney General Eric Holder.
Taking the new surveillance state apart would require removing the pillars that hold the Fourth Branch of Government in place. No one is discussing such a necessary deconstruction effort; instead, everyone is pretending the anti-democracy issue is not critical and weakening the constitutional republic ever day it exists.
Back to Mueller…. When the entire town knows the true motive for Mueller’s investigation to exist, yet no single person will state it publicly, you look at the people claiming the virtue of Mueller with new eyes. It wasn’t just democrats, there were/are abundant republicans proclaiming the virtue of Robert Mueller et al.
Every time I watched former AG Bill Barr talking about Special Counsel Robert Mueller, it was crystal clear Bill Barr was the application of Bondo over the corrupt and rusted DC justice system. As a result, the appointment of John Durham needed to be accepted through the same prism of intent.
Bill Barr was the Bondo work, and John Durham would apply the shiny coat of paint.
The corrupt and useless shell of Main Justice would be covered up and the polished image sold to the public. However, depending on where you stand, fortunately or unfortunately the public isn’t buying it. As each day passes more people are aware of the problem. DC denial runs rampant against the reality of We The People seeing the fraud.
[…] Mr. Durham is completing a several-hundred-page report he will submit to Attorney General Merrick Garland at the end of his tenure, according to people familiar with the matter. His office has relayed to a defense attorney they don’t expect to bring charges against another person who was a focus of the investigation. (read more)
Connecting Things – Konnech Election Compromise, CCP Infiltration, CEO Arrest, True The Vote and Recent Deep State Misinformation Efforts
Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 10, 2022 | Sundance
Major Hat Tips to Rasmussen [link], Kanekoa News [link] and Catherine Englebrecht of True the Vote [link].
CTH often says don’t get so close to any granules that you miss the big picture. Rasmussen Reports has drawn attention to that big picture, the timeline tells the story, and with recent announcements about ‘misinformation’ and ‘disinformation’ triggers, it is worth putting the details of the entire dynamic into context. I would consider all these issues easily connected.
First, it is important to note how the public impression is constructed using the affiliations and relationships CTH continually points out. When the FBI/DOJ need to get out in front of an issue they use the New York Times (and Politico) to establish the defensive and offensive narrative. [The State Dept use CNN, and the CIA use the Washington post] These are constants in an ever-changing world of information warfare.
♦On October 3rd New York Times journalist Stuart Thompson writes a hit piece against Catherine Englebrecht and True The Vote, written to cast their election review efforts as conspiracy theories. [link]
♦24 hours later, October 4th, the CEO of Konnech – a company specializing in proprietary PollChief software to manage election workers – was arrested. [link] Konnech Corporation Chief Executive Officer Eugene Yu was arrested for exploiting access to U.S. election data, including election worker information, and transferring the files to China.
I guarantee journalist Stuart Thompson was used as a tool by FBI officials who knew the arrest was forthcoming. Essentially, the arrest of Eugene Yu was based on the exact claims of Chinese datamining that Catherine Englebrecht and Gregg Phillips had been outlining since late 2020. [link] The FBI was/is working to diffuse the truth of U.S. election compromises that True the Vote has been outlining.
After the arrest of Eugene Yu (October 6th) the New York Times had to try and hide their useful work and affiliation on behalf of the political FBI by posting this update. The transparency of the coordinated effort is brutally obvious:
Editors’ Note, Oct. 6: After this article was published, the chief executive of Konnech, Eugene Yu, was arrested in connection with an investigation into the possible theft of personal information about poll workers. In communications with The Times for this article, neither Mr. Yu nor a spokesman for Konnech said that the company was the subject of an investigation. They also asserted that all the company’s data was stored on servers in the United States; prosecutors in Los Angeles, who brought the charges against Mr. Yu, said that they had found some company data stored on servers in China. The Times is continuing to report on this story. (link)
A familiar pattern: (1) Write a requested ‘conspiracy theory’ hit piece. (2) Immediately watch the reality of the next event confirm the ‘conspiracy theory’. (3) Attempt to recover credibility after the disinfecting sunlight exposes the motive of the effort. This is what ideological narrative engineers do in their relationships with the corrupt system operators within government.
The FBI takes the information provided by True The Vote, assembles the evidence that supports the claims by the voting integrity watchdog, then takes the information up to the DC FBI leadership and almost immediately the switch is triggered. True The Vote now becomes the target of the political FBI. We have watched this outline numerous times, only this example is brutally obvious.
So, we have Chinese Communist Party (CCP) infiltration -via software exploitation- into U.S. election systems and databases. That’s the bottom line.
Additionally, the FBI is covering up the issue and trying to deflect from the severity of the problem (perhaps to them it is not a problem) by hiding the truth. Once again, the FBI is weaponized against what they consider “domestic threats,” honest Americans. Yeah, we have a major institutional problem, and the corruption is metastatic.
It is then appropriate to add another ‘big picture’ layer to the issue….
…Nothing has been done to correct the election integrity issue. With the U.S. midterm elections taking place only a month after this explosive development unfolds, there is nothing visible to reflect any emergency action has been taken to mitigate the compromise. Which takes us to the latest issue.
Big Tech, Social Media and even electronic payment processors (PayPal) start beating the drums about using their vast power to target anyone who they would identify as pushing ‘misinformation‘ and/or ‘disinformation‘ about the 2020 election itself.
Now, this latest round of service term updates (2022) should be contextualized against the November 2020 service term updates which included targeting for any individual, site or content that questioned U.S. election integrity.
Put it together, stand back and you can make a solid argument the private sector institutions that are in alignment with corrupt government efforts are proactively positioning to shut down anyone who will research and outline the flawed and/or manipulated outcomes in the 2022 midterm elections. We have the 2020 background -and major social media purge- as context.
I’m not sure what the solution is, but everyone needs to be on high alert at a precinct level in this election.

Global Egg Shortage
Armstrong Economics Blog/Agriculture Re-Posted Oct 7, 2022 by Martin Armstrong
You know the situation is becoming dire when staple food items are no longer on the shelves. France is currently experiencing an egg shortage, and it is the largest egg producer in the Eurozone. The 1,500 billion eggs seen in production in 2021 are expected to decline for the first time on record this year. Reuters estimates that egg production will decline 8% in France, 3% in the EU overall, and 4.6% in the United States.
The bird flu crisis caused tens of millions of poultry deaths this year. I reported in May 2021 that there was a chicken shortage. The animal activists and climate change crowd, two groups that usually overlap, are completely at odds. Farmers are deemed the enemy by the climate change crowd who feels the need to reduce farming to eliminate carbon emissions. Northern Ireland was considering murdering over one million cattle and sheep to meet emission targets by 2050. Other countries are looking at doing the same, as it is expensive to host livestock. Feed and fertilizer are under fire, and farming, already a difficult career, has become less lucrative.
Eggs were previously a favorite staple, especially in economic hardships, as it is a cheap source of protein. French groceries have reported up to a 20% rise in egg prices since the start of the year. CNPO deputy chairman Loic Coulombel told Reuters that France would have previously looked to import food, but all of its trading partners are also in a shortage. Coulombel explained that companies have begun to change their recipes or halt production entirely as eggs have become too expensive, and this issue will only worsen global food shortages.

US Ocean Fright Orders Down – Warehouse Inventories Up
Armstrong Economics Blog/World Trade Re-Posted Oct 5, 2022 by Martin Armstrong
Retailers are set to have an excess of inventory this year after the prolonged supply chain crisis. Items were shelved by the time they arrived, and now these retailers must get rid of the excess. Stores such as Amazon and Target announced early holiday shopping discount days for October. A report by CNBC found that ocean freight orders have declined 20%.
HSL Logistics cut vessel capacity by 50% and said that may continue into 2023. Other liners are also confused as to what to expect with consumer demand. Warehouses have previously reported storage problems. The Wall Street Journal reported in August that Prologis Inc, the world’s largest owner of warehouses by the square foot, said they could not currently meet inventory demands. They work with some of the largest corporations, such as Home Depot, Walmart, UPS, FedEx, and more. Prologis estimated it needed an additional 800 million square feet of storage space to keep up with new arrivals. Their 5,800 clients had already requested an average of 138,000 square feet.
Nike announced last week that its inventory grew by 65% during the last quarter alone. Nike Chief Financial Officer Matthew Friend said the excess will have a “transitory impact on gross margins this fiscal year.” I thought that term had been discontinued. Friend went on to say the company will tighten “inventory buys around the world based on some of the risks that could materialize in the second half.”
Expect to see store discounts on items, such as clothing, that have a short shelf life as people no longer want previous trends. Second-hand buyers like TJ Maxx and Burlington Stores will reportedly have better quality items typically not found in their stores. Retailers will be forced to discount items eventually if demand is not strong and are more likely to face losses the longer they hold on to inventory.
