Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

That's a huge plus side for many folks, not so much others.

This is part of the Democrat agenda to divide America into tribes and to use tax payers money to buy the votes of tribes and turn them against Republicans and conservatives. That is why they bring in immigrants to create the replacement tribe which will assure them votes for 3 generations. It is a brilliant plan that Hitleer and Lenin would be so proud of. It will destroy the country of course but the Democrats would rather rule over America's ashes than simply follow and maintain the constitution. 2024 is a make or break point and if they win they intend to crush the middle class with taxes and opression.

Free the J6 political prisoners. This is shameful. The Democrats have gone full communism putting political protestors into Gulags. It is a disgrace to our constitution and our country. Where are the appeals? Where are the appeals court judges and SCOTUS? The prosecutors hid exculpatory evidence, they literally committed a crime in order to put these people in jail. Where are the protests? Wake up America this is their plan for you too. They will jail you for resisting the take over and cow you into silence and acceptance by jailing the outspoke. Imagine that you can go to jail for years for simply expressing an anti-left wing point of view. They will search your social site comments and turn friends and family against you to intimidate anyone who might disagree. Remember that old joke where the USSR communist party meetings would break out in applause and applaud continuously because the KGB would arrest those who stopped applauding too soon and put them in the Gulag. That is your future. It may be for disagreeing with the grooming of your children or disagreeing with skyrocketing taxes to provide homes and food for millions of illegals and reparations for the chosen people. It may simply be because you are white. Don't believe me, just watch!

Never forget that Bernie's campaign claimed the gulags "paid a living wage."
Bernie never repudiated that claim.
Have the Jews repudiated Bernie?
And also realize the ADL insists that if you oppose Soros, you are anti-Semitic!

Climate scientists told to 'cover up' the fact that the Earth's temperature hasn't risen for the...

QUOTE:
Scientists working on the most authoritative study on climate change were urged to cover up the fact that the world’s temperature hasn’t risen for the last 15 years, it is claimed.

. . . But leaked documents seen by the Associated Press, yesterday revealed deep concerns among politicians about a lack of global warming over the past few years.

Germany called for the references to the slowdown in warming to be deleted, saying looking at a time span of just 10 or 15 years was ‘misleading’ and they should focus on decades or centuries.

. . . The United States delegation even weighed in, urging the authors of the report to explain away the lack of warming using the ‘leading hypothesis’ among scientists that the lower warming is down to more heat being absorbed by the ocean – which has got hotter.

. . . The report is expected to say the rate of warming between 1998 and 2012 was about half of the average rate since 1951 – and put this down to natural variations such as the El Nino and La Nina ocean cycles and the cooling effects of volcanoes.

The greatest grift in history, comparable to the largest flood in history 5.3 million years ago. An enormous number of people and groups are in on the grift all for different reasons. Our politicians simply want to launder tax money for their friends and to be kicked back to them. China wants to destroy our economy. Europe/EU wants power. Every little shithole country wants the trillions in payouts. And of course our young college "educated" kids and other mindless left wing robots simply want to use it to crush the middle class and capitolism. I do not think we can save ourselves from this grift. I think it will break us and lead to the most terrible world war imaginagble. If only the Republicans had some balls and fought to expose the big steal back in November 2020 we might today see the U.S. pulling out of the big grift. Oh well, you do stupid things you win stupid prizes.

Huh? Since 2007:
    Source, °C/decade
    GISTEMPv4, +0.262
    HadCRUT4, +0.223
    UAHv6, +0.239
Here's a graph of UAHv.6.

Oh. Got it. The article is ten years old. Warming has continued at the projected rate since then.

American Maoism where the perpetually offended rage like a long line of Trigglypuffs, BLM's, and antifas.

More Maoism for the self-pitying, incoherent intellectuals of the academy.

Why does the CPUSA continue to pander when they have Dominion/Smartmatic?
Are people finally waking up to the foreign hijacking of everything?
The anointed ones really believe that they can divide and conquer until the mass chaos of a human zoo and not get any on them.
Arrogance and hubris are put there for a reason.

The Impending Thermidor Reaction in Jacobin America

QUOTE:
Jacobins sought to wipe out religion, both materially and spiritually. They replaced God, first, with the atheistic “Cult of Reason” and then a stranger still “Cult of the Supreme Being”—a dreamed-up, living, humanistic god that only the murderous Robespierre could fully envision, but eerily similar to our own Green New Deal deity.

The months of the year themselves were renamed, the days of the week renumbered and relabeled. Statues were toppled, first at night, later in shameless daylight. Place names were erased and renamed. The original revolutionary heroes were not to be mentioned; their uncouth successors deified. Money was printed to “spread the wealth”—until it was worthless.

Murderous cancel culture ran unchecked. Yesterday’s French revolutionary became today’s counterrevolutionary—and tomorrow’s decapitated.

. . . . The final revolutionary correction saw a Directory, then a Consulate, and finally the dictator Napoleon—the self-described emperor who claimed he was the final absolutist manifestation of the “Revolution.”

I have just received an email that says Malmstrom Airforce Base has presented a drag queen dance and show in their K-8 school. The Montana State Legislature has been taking a lot of heat for calling a queer legislature on her/his bad behavior on the floor of the state house. Yelling and scream and hysterical declarations. The only quote the liberal press is using is when she said everyone who voted against the no child mutilation bill will have "blood on their hands". What the liberal press has not told you is that she/he said much more in her screeching tirade. She/he/it was given the opportunity to apologize to those in the room or be excluded from all further activities on the legislature. She/he/it has refused to apologize for her/his poor performance, but you won't get that from the Liberals who are trying to make her/him a lifelong well-paid hero! Is this why the US Airfare base with multiple missile sites put on a drag queen show in their local school?
