(1655) Almost evening, chaps and chapesses.

7. Why will Bondi not arrest anyone?
6. Steve B’s chart quiz
Am struggling with this one:
A very short short on that machine:
(0743) Sixteen items of news waiting, redacted, across about seven main topics, inc. the blue state cops advising antifa how to do it, trouble with a British council, the NHS, October 7th etc. oh … morning by the way, chaps and chapesses … dull bleah outside. (0813)
5. And now to CK and CO
This was posted by one Evan Kilgore, seems to be a MAGA:
I don’t have a personal view on that one but am happy to see any new data, as long as it is legit data. How would I know? Good question … in the end times, there are meant to be so many false prophets, false messiahs. Think most of us are in that boat.
On EK, I prefer to believe her bona fides but shall certainly listen if you think you have further goods on her and TPUSA.
Just running with the Candace story a moment longer, we really need to know where our sources are coming from … from which angle. Certain of our sources are clearly pro Israel, some certainly anti. Even once we know that, does it get us much forrarder?
4. Now to CK and EK
Going to pretty much put what Toodles said but also my reply … it’s up to you which part of the CK/EK you buy … my job here is to try to put what we find.
Toodles:
Oh yes yes… the hand gesture used by CK’s wife means ‘I love you’ in American language for the deaf. Two middle fingers down with pinky and pointer up as well as the thumb.
And my reply was:
Yes, well aware of the dual meaning of the sign. To the soft liberal left, they would see only the love and peace meaning. To Christians though, well aware of the other meaning, it was an immediate trigger.
That’s not the main question. The more difficult question is who advised EK to use a clearly dualistic sign? And the answer is “not CK”, who can no longer advise her. It’s someone powerful around her. She might be entirely unaware of its duality, yet she displayed it at precisely that moment … someone advised her it would be fine.
The question of EK is one which will emerge by and by. What she is lacking right now, and this should be our prayer, is that someone Christian, not Pharisaic be her closest adviser.
3. October 7th
We either buy 10-7, buy that it happened but with huge anomalies or don’t buy that anything happened. I’m for the middle one, looking straight at Nethanyahu and the 0520 to 0900 standown of defences. If that holds up, then it puts a quite different complexion on the horror.
What I absolutely do not countenance is the Hamas loving white woman cutting down yellow ribbons commemorating the dead and those still hostage, if any. On this matter, my view is straight down the line.

Only one story today. Macron panics and asks the resigning PM to re-form a Government.
A chaotic day, dogged by the anger of the opposition…
Forty-eight hours of added time. Faced with an unprecedented crisis and under pressure from all sides, Emmanuel Macron asked …….
1. Why would this open proceedings today?
In a similar way, someone in authority ordered the security men on the back of JFK’s car to stand down, just before the car turned left into Dealey Plaza. The reason given was plausible deniability … the better for the people to see JFK.
But why right then? Why not during the planning stage? More later.
(1607) Soon evening.
21. As in Britland and Oz … so in Mexico
20. Penseivat
“A Rabbi and Catholic priest share a railway compartment on their way to an interdenominational conference. After a brief general chat, the priest asks the Rabbi if he would answer a personal question? The Rabbi agrees, and was asked if he had ever eaten pork, something forbidden in the Jewish religion. The Rabbi eventually admits that he had eaten pork, and then asks the priest to answer a similar personal question. The priest agrees to do so. The Rabbi asks if the priest has had sex with a woman after joining the priesthood, where he is expected to be celibate? A brief silence, then the priest admits that he had done so. The Rabbi leans forward and, softly, says, “It’s better than pork, isn’t it?” “
