3. Just going to run this as one long round up now

… then catch some more sleep, hopefully. Not running the Trump Vance Zelensky 53 mins or whatever it was … link is in comments here, “that went well” … I do urge you to look at Sat 1, copy the link from comments if you want and store in your own safe place for retrieval.

2. Bondi

Decades of dealing with gals have taught me things about all sorts, types. One type is the eternal girl/woman, always complicated if she is approaching classic beauty status in western eyes, which Pam was/is … it’s a double-edged sword and a gal becomes sly in protecting herself, her shortcomings … you see it in Pam B where she combines loyalty, plus bending people to her will, plus slyness … look at the eyes and set of the lips … she’s out to protect herself and increase her own stocks … there’s nothing untoward here, it’s the nature of girl/woman since ancient times.

And realising she’d been caught out, she slyly laid it on Kash via a very publicly posted letter, as public as Bindergate.

Pam was caught out, whichever way you slice/dice it … check out Kylie Jane Kremer, a major MAGA pundit:

This is the deal. Pam Bondi lied. Whether it was nefariously with malicious intent or naively & stupidly because she wanted to look like she was more informed, she said she had the Epstein files on her desk but the WORST PART is that SHE SAID SHE’D READ the Epstein files. She also stated there were sick people in the files after reading. Pam Bondi lied each way you look at it. Had Pam not lied, she & Kash could have figured out that people were withholding documents at the FBI or SDNY.

I’d suggest you look for any of our stalwarts’ references to Flynn … ball’s in your court.

When you see something on some site you think needs preserving, you can go about it a number of ways … here are some.

The easiest, to my mind, is a thing called a USB stick which, in simple language, is a small storage disk … quite cheap, anyone can buy, plugs into a laptop or PC side or behind, not Apple products, which use USBC … I never store on Apple. Not perfect as these sticks do degrade over time. Have three, four of them.

A step up is a small, plug in hard drive, USB plug, also easy to buy, you can spend £40 or £400 and you only need the one. Whole idea is that you detach after using/accessing.

Both those are affected by your system, device, browser, storage when you plug in … this post item does not cover those, nor VPN nor other methods to cut through the barriers.

One oblique way is our stalwart’s here of internxx archxxx, effective.

My advice is to store at a few locations, not all situated at home. This involves a certain amount of taking responsibility for your own files but don’t forget on paper.

Keep diaries, A5 ideally, A4 more cumbersome and one can be your central index to where you put things. Or have a box for all your scraps of scribbled notes … lazy but at least they’re all there.

It’s a discipline, chaps and chapesses, to allocate some of your time every few days to store on disk plus on paper. What you really should categorically not do is rely on HQ here to return to … you saw what happened to N.O., similar can happen to HQ, in fact well might this summer, as my system completely changes. Not saying it will but it seems not unlikely.

It really is your responsibility, as your knowledge increases, for your own net safety, which can be attacked at any time by all the little Thems … plus the big ones.

I’d strongly avoid storing any nrop whatever … you’ll be hacked, it’s truly unwise if you’re also prone to polit finding out in your rounds. In this country, that in itself is increasingly seen as radical, even if innocuous. Insane making threats online too, euphemise what you say and store. Use multiple locations, avoid ones such as FB, Tikxxx … stick to storing just facts, data.

If a thousand readers were to do that, in all corners of the sphere, it multiplies exponentially. Also … keep unplugged in inclement conditions, as you would any vulnerable apparatus.

(1626) Good evening, readers.

Good reader, our league of extraordinary gentlemen has left copious links in the sidebar … I need to advise that there were issues even getting them posted there. When that happens, they’re best left in situ … I’ve just been through … and I do suggest you save the valuable ones to file, remotely, or use IYE’s advised method. Do you have a USB stick or external hard drive? Not expensive, detach when not in use.

(1452) This is one where the hours are dragging, not fugitting.

 

17. The frustrating thing is not so much the crims

Crims are crims … they think crim, have zero conscience, stop at nothing. Combine that with an agenda or what you might call a global plan, necessitating the fooling of millions of simple, trusting souls, such as political normies or the apolitical, combined with those seeing themselves as experienced ultra-rationalists, nothing gets past them … so they firmly believe with a condescending smile.

Even if you can get through their wilful ignorance, precisely as in the Poirot episode earlier, they’ve truly never really dealt with violent crims who’s goal is the money, plus never being caught … and they most certainly struggle to comprehend utter depravity … as they are not depraved themselves.

The very notion of running an insurance scam days before 911, combined with wiping out a cultural set of edifices, at the small cost of a few thousand lives … collateral, fun really, as long as they’re western lives … together with requiring the pretext for the “Patriot Act”, plus the next step in the anti-nation-state agenda … well you just do it … pay billions, otherwise threaten, kill off.

Far, far from it being “out there”, “left field” … those who can see these crims in all their horror have very strange minds themselves … they can think crim themselves but something stops them … they become soooooo impatient with those still trying to hang onto some vestige of civil dealings, of cultural underpinnings … even those seeing themselves as tough nuts, such as Pam Bondi, turn out to be hopelessly naive.

The saddest part is how essentially good people, dear friends, just can’t get the head around other people they essentially like being outplayed or even with skeletons themselves … it’s a slow, grudging, rude awakening at each new point. They speak about the baddies as baddies, yes … good … but the depth of the depravity … well unless you’ve seen it, it’s so difficult to match that face, that person, with those deeds.

… in a manner of speaking:

 

 

I for one really do not like vlogs … even the good ones are usually too long, could have covered it in half the time, one cannot go at one’s own pace, waiting on the vlogger to stop with the bullsh … plus the thumbnails are more often than not sensationalist, hyperbole-oriented and inaccurate once one wades through the sludge. Plus the hard sell at the start, before even seeing the content.

This one is half and half.

12. IYE in comments

(1032) Not impressed, Mr. President

 

Though this is the main thing annoying us:

… it’s not the only one … there’s Trump caving to Starmer on Chagos, plus that ridiculous theatre with Draino and binders … so smug … which turns out to be rubbish.

Thing is, we are being treated as low-info midwits instead of 24/7 vigilant new fourth estate who scour alt sources for any snippets and are sick to death of being lied to, misled, promised … plus those above seem to be non-comps showboating, esp. Bondi.

We. Are. Not. Impressed.

(0922) Morning all … watch out today for jihadis, plus poisoned air, water food, awful cacophony they call “music”, stasi at the door, plus total nincompoops … other than that … all fine. (0943)

4. And so to DAD at 981

a) French Prime Minister François Bayrou has announced that France will push for a “complete review” of the 1968 agreement with Algeria, a deal that granted Algerians special immigration privileges.….

b) ‘Insult to injury’: What’s behind the rising tensions between France and Algeria?…..

(JH: Going to dig out my Gary Brecher article on Algeria … eyeopening.)

c) Sarah Knefo is a one (wo)man DOGE. (She was named as one of Zemmour’s campaign directors for his presidential campaign bid and Reconquête party. On October 3, 2024, the Paris prosecutor’s office closed the complaint for “spreading false news” filed by the Algerian state…..

d) Anne Sicard writes….Monsieur le ministre, The far left imposes a climate of terror in our universities: assaults, kidnappings, roadblocks…..

3. My quick quiz question

… as a result of one of DAD’s quiz questions:

Who was the PMG when it all ended? This man was PMG 1968/9.

2. Those returned VCs … from TDS newsletter today

“In a sign of the times, the Imperial War Museum has announced that it is closing the gallery devoted to Lord Ashcroft’s personal collection of Victoria and George Cross medals. They were displayed so that anyone could see them and read the stories of astonishing bravery involved. The scandalous decision was made without even bothering to tell Lord Ashcroft.

The Telegraph has the story:

The billionaire businessman said the museum “had not even the courtesy” to inform him before the public announcement on Tuesday of its decision to close down the landmark gallery displaying his £70 million collection of 230 Victoria Cross and George Cross medals.

The Lord Ashcroft Gallery was opened in 2010 following a £5 million donation from the life peer and the medals were loaned out for 15 years.

However, the museum has since announced that the gallery will permanently close on June 1st and the entire collection will be returned to Lord Ashcroft.”

I’m afraid I must return to one of my hobbyhorses again … not male-female but just how long do we commemorate for? Years back, I’d look at putting a number on it, e.g. a century … later, I’d look more at generations, another hobbyhorse of mine … now I’d mix that in with family and upbringing, plus its mixing in with schoolteaching. Needn’t dwell on that in this post … nuff said about Gen Zee and Alpha commemorating anything worthwhile, non-Woke.

I used to tell the chn that though, despite appearances, I myself was simply not around in those huge, worldwide conflicts, my parents were and thus we needed to show respect and gratitude forever. And the response from the chn was pretty good to be honest. Thing was though, no other staff did similar and they were Gen X, a generation with less or no reverence, but still half-educated.

After Vox’s attack on Boomers, which had me initially defending, then thinking about it … it slowly dawned he was referring to the lefty, hippy lot … I was certainly an Eve of Destruction civil rights type, far less so a Dylan or Who type … My Generation was aimed squarely at us and we liked the song but didn’t feel it deeply … we were still fairly onside with our parents, being told not to be.

Although we could see through pernicious pollie authority.

Sorry to move away even further from the returned VCs but this morning, in a late, prewaking nightmare, I was thinking at what point in my life were the genuine windows of opportunity I’d either missed, or more accurately had not sustained, to make a regular lifelong dynasty … agewise there was certainly one way too early when I was 15, the first true pairing off at 22, next at 29, through till 37, then from 43 till about 49 … that was really the last hurrah, certainly not unfulfilled … it pretty much died on the vine though when I returned here, unsuspecting that it was over and a fellow blogger told me, “You got no hope,” of anything really … times had moved on. The issue was now more in me though now … jaded, didn’t think I was in any position to, knew I wasn’t … however never say never, eh?

Coming back to the end of the “VC commemoration era”, let’s call it … well Northern Ireland was still quite alive in the 90s, those soldiers were, (doing a quick calculation), in the 1970 to 76 range, say, birthwise, if too young to fight, then well aware … I’m thinking that was pretty much the limit of true remembrance … remember Canary Wharf, (which situation I was in the middle of)?

So, looking at 1996 and our feelings about Fenians .. there were the kids, born maybe early Millennial, their parents … take 23 years perhaps, born late 60s, making them early to mid Gen X … those kids were certainly not commemorating WW2 nor Suez, nor Rhodesia … to a point Mandela featured now in their consciousness, later Hamasland. I entirely missed Blairtime here, at ground level, stayed in touch via the net, returned to an entirely different Britain.

The very day I flew into Gatwick, the cashier in a WH Smith refused my tenner … no longer legal tender. I’ve no idea where I’m going with this, so had best stop.
