Cold Anger is not driven to spite itself. It is more deliberate; more resolved; deeper. Cold Anger is unnervingly quiet, generally and comfortably invisible, and quite mannerly in outward disposition. However, that said, when it matters most... Cold Anger drives a reckoning.
I have written a great deal about "Cold Anger", beginning in 2015, because -in my opinion- it reconciles and explains a lot of the difficult to define energy behind Donald Trump that most surface pundits just don't understand.
Cold Anger is an internal sensibility. Not visible.
Here's my word salad buffet of the difficult to define "Cold Anger", starting with: Why it exists?
(1) When Americans see that justice is measured, not by due process, but by compulsion...
(2) ... When Americans we see that in order to invoke our right to due process, we need to obtain permission from those who rebuke the constitution;....
(3) ..."when Americans see that justice is determined by those who leverage authority, not in law, but in politics;...
(4) ..."when we see that representatives get power over individual liberty by graft and by scheme, and our representatives don’t protect us against them, but protect them against us;"...
(5) ..."when Americans see corruption holding influence and individual liberty so easily dispatched and nullified; at an inherent and internal level we know that our own freedom is also at risk."
Most Americans can actually still see the bigger picture.
When we carry that sense and then see a President state a very obvious truth that no-one ever dare articulate with brutal honesty:
...."You Have Always Been Loyal to This Nation, Now You Finally Have a President Who is Loyal To You”…
That statement hits home. It hits deep.
Most Americans go quietly about their business trying to do the next best thing for themselves, their family, their friends and their community.
Most Americans just go about living without much discussion; and we don't try to interfere in the liberty or happiness of others.
But we notice stuff.
We notice the things that are put in front of us that are not fair, even if they are not happening to us. The expectation of fairness is actually very important to us.
Construct unfair systems, and we notice. We don't say anything, but we notice.
That deep and inherent expectation holds the key to understanding Cold Anger.
It's a level of anger far deeper and more consequential than expressed rage or visible behavior; that's why it is a *cold* anger. A longer fuse per se'.
Cold Anger does not need to go to violence. For those who carry it, no conversation is needed when we meet. You cannot poll or measure it; specifically because most who carry it avoid discussion…
And that decision has nothing whatsoever to do with any form of correctness.
We watched the passage of Obamacare at 1:38am on the day before Christmas Eve in 2009. We watched the Senate, then the House attempt passing Amnesty in 2014. We know exactly how it passed, and we know exactly why it passed. We don’t need to stand around talking about it….
We know what lies hidden behind “cloture” and the UniParty schemes.
We watched the 2009 $900+ billion Stimulus Bill being spent each year, every year, for seven consecutive years. Omnibus, Porkulous, QE1, QE2, Bailouts, Crony-Capitalism. We know exactly how this works, and we know exactly why this ruse is maintained.
We don’t need to stand around talking about it…. We’re beyond talking, and far beyond thinking that negotiations over the timing of our demise are even worthwhile.
Cold Anger does not offer, nor request, any terms...
We accept the entire Senate voted to block President Trump’s ability to use recess appointments in 2017, and 2018, 2019, and 2020.
Cold Anger absorbs betrayal silently, often prudently.
We’ve watched the ridiculing of cops, the riots, and the lack of support for laws, or their enforcement. We’ve been absorbing all that. We’ve been exposed to violence upon us by paid operatives of the organized DNC machine.
We know this stuff. The media trying to hide it doesn’t change our level of information.
Cold Anger is not hatred, it is far more purposeful.
We watched in 2012 as the Democrat party thrice denied God during their convention. The doors to evil enterprise opened by official proclamation and request.
Cold Anger takes notice of the liars, even from a great distance – seemingly invisible to the mob.
Cold Anger will still hold open the door for the riot goer. Mannerly.
We’ve watched our borders being intentionally unsecured.
We’ve watched Islamic Terrorists slaughter Americans as our politicians proclaim their uncertainty of motive. We know exactly who they are, and why they are doing it. We do not need to stand around discussing it…. we’re clear-eyed.
Cold Anger evidenced is more severe because it is more strategic, and more purposeful. Eric Cantor’s defeat, Brexit, Donald Trump’s highest vote tally in the history of presidential primaries.... or even President Trump’s 2016 victory might aide your understanding.
Cold Anger does not gloat; it absorbs consistent vilification and ridicule as fuel. This sensibility does not want to exist, it is forced to exist in otherwise unwilling hosts – we also refuse to be destabilized by it.
Illicit trade schemes, employment and the standard of living in Vietnam and Southeast Asia are more important to Wall Street and DC lobbyists, than the financial security of Youngstown Ohio.
We get it. We understand. We didn’t create that reality, we are simply responding to it.
The intelligence apparatus of our nation was weaponized against a presidential candidate by those who controlled the levers of government. Now, with sanctimonious declarations they dismiss accountability.
Deliberate intent and prudence ensures we avoid failure. The course is thoughtful vigilance; it is a strategy devoid of emotion. The media can call us anything they want, it really doesn’t matter…. we’re far beyond the place where labels matter.
Foolishness and betrayal of our nation have served to reveal dangers within our present condition. Misplaced corrective action, regardless of intent, is neither safe nor wise. We know exactly who Donald Trump is, and we also know what he is not.
Donald Trump is exactly what we need at this moment.
He is a necessary, defiant and glorious fighter.
He is our weapon.
Cold Anger is not driven to act in spite of itself; it drives a reckoning.
When the U.S. flags lay gleefully undefended, they do not lay unnoticed. When the stars and stripes are controversial, yet a foreign flag is honored – we are paying attention.
When millionaire football players kneel down rather than honor our fallen soldiers and stand proud of our country, we see that.
When a school community cannot openly pray, it does not mean the prayerful were absent.
When a liar seems to win, it is not without observation.
Many – more than the minority would like to admit – know the difference between science, clocks and political agendas.
Cold Anger perceives deception the way a long-term battered person absorbs blows in the hours prior to a pre-planned exit; with purpose.
A shield, or cry of micro-aggression will provide no benefit, nor quarter. Delicate sensibilities dispatched like a feather in a hurricane.
We are patient, but also purposeful. Pushed far enough, decisions are reached.
This man has faced opposition that would overwhelm any other President. Our chosen President is constantly attacked by those holding a corrupt, conniving and Godless leftist ideology.
It is our job now to stand with him, firm on his behalf.
Donald Trump is an existential threat to the existence of a corrupt DC system we have exposed to his disinfecting sunlight. Donald Trump is the existential threat to every entity who benefits from that corrupt and vile system.
The fundamental construct within decades of their united global efforts to tear at the very fabric of our U.S.A is being eliminated. They too have nothing to lose; their desperation becomes visible within their apoplexy; and they’re damn sure displaying it.
As a result Americans have learned to throw aside the sense of discomfort as we bear witness to the evil we oppose.
Eyes focused on the hatred aimed in our direction. We stand firm amid the solace of our number, and NOW we resolve to the specific task at hand.
Cold Anger cannot, and is not, being polled.

1) **ahem** Also, every argument for retention of 702 is a false premise. Americans either have a 4th Amendment, or we do not. It really is that simple.
Want to conduct electronic surveillance on an American; want to read their "private papers," GET A WARRANT!
This is my hill!
2) Why is this my hill?
Because every downstream action for the surveillance state is predicated on the legal arguments behind FISA 702.
Real ID, facial recognition surveillance, metadata collection, AI enhanced trace and tracking, etc, all of it is contingent upon the arguments within the FISA 702 issue as it relates to the 4th amendment.
If FISA 702 is not a violation of the 4th amendment protection against unlawful search and seizure, then all domestic downstream DHS surveillance, collection and exploitation is similarly not a violation.
If FISA 702 is determined to be a violation of privacy, a violation of the 4th amendment to be secure in your papers and effects (which it is), then all approaches to conduct domestic electronic surveillance through the network of DHS data assembly is also a violation of privacy.
This is a privacy argument that has not reached SCOTUS. It is still being fought with success at state level.
If you are being monitored without a warrant, you have no privacy. The core argument behind 702 authorizes warrantless monitoring.
3) This is why the DC system supports FISA 702 with such severity. It is essentially the path through which the U.S. Govt is authorizing itself to conduct surveillance.
This is why the SSCI will not confirm a nominee without them supporting 702. Congress demands every member of the national security apparatus approve domestic surveillance, on behalf of the Intelligence Community who create and operate the systems.
Remove 702 authority and Palantir stock drops overnight. Why? Because the predicate of their domestic product intents, the surveillance software, are dependent on the legal arguments behind it.
Billions of dollars of German auto manufacturing (assembly) investment in Mexico were just vaporized by President Trump.
This is a very big kick in the teeth to Germany. Previously in a long-term strategy to avoid U.S. tariffs, German automakers invested billions in auto assembly plants in Mexico. Ex. the BMW parts were shipped from Germany and the cars assembled in Mexico. Now that investment is worthless as the vehicle will be taxed at a rate of 25% regardless of whether it is assembled in Germany or Mexico.
It cannot be overstated how big a hit this will be to the German economy specifically. That’s why EU President Ursula von der Leyen is couching her words very carefully.
Germany drives the economic engine of the EU, and the Germans care about their money far more than they care about the security of Ukraine.
“As I have said before, tariffs are taxes – bad for businesses, worse for consumers equally in the US and the European Union,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in a statement. “We will now assess this announcement, together with other measures the US is envisaging in the next days.”
The EU outlook, specifically financial support, toward the EU/NATO Ukraine strategy will change in 3.... 2....1....
1) Emissary Steve Witkoff’s positive perspectives on Qatar were/are actually shocking to me. Remember, CTH is banned from view in Qatar, and even the U.S. military there cannot access CTH in that duty station.
Qatar is NOT a good actor in the Mideast conflict. On this material supposition and presentation, I comprehensively disagree with Witkoff and would love to debate this matter with him.
I can only conclude there is some financial relationship between Witkoff and the Qataris that lies behind his views.
Qatar provided safe haven for the 5 key Muslim Brotherhood agitators who were exiled from Egypt, and Qatar was factually the GCC nation that had to be confronted for their support of Islamic extremism by Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and UAE.
Why Witkoff puts such a positive spin on Qatar, and why Tucker Carlson seemingly affirms and goes along with it is quite odd, given the nature of the discussion.
Qatar funds Al Jazeera, the major propaganda wing of the Islamic extremist coalition supported by the Muslim Brotherhood.
Qatar funds the Brookings Institute, which also then funds the operational efforts of all the Lawfare and CIA agencies.
Qatar is factually in a very deep relationship with the CIA. VERY DEEP.
Qatar was also the mechanism used by Clinton/Panetta to send Surface to Air missiles into Libya, which ultimately resulted in the death of Ambassador Chris Stephens during a covert operation to retrieve them.
All of these known facts, put great pause on the review of Steve Witkoff, who -amid other issues- appears to be doing an exceptional job on the Ukraine-Russia conflict. We should watch this carefully with eyes wide open.
“Witkoff bought the hotel in 2013 for $654 million with a plan to convert the bulk of the building’s 600 or so rooms into high-end condos. But by 2016 he and his partners — Harry Macklowe, Howard Lorber’s New Valley and Highgate Holdings — had decided the Billionaires’ Row market had become oversaturated.
They put the conversion on hold.
A few months later, Chinese developer Greenland Group bought a 41 percent stake in the project from Kuwait Strategic Investors. The project seemed to be back on track.
But shortly after the deal closed, the Justice Department filed a lawsuit looking to seize the hotel as part of its investigation into the Malaysian businessman Jho Low, who was accused of stealing $4 billion from a development fund in his home country.
"Witkoff put the property up for sale in 2017.” “Qataris shell out $623M for storied Park Lane Hotel –
Witkoff-led group bought property decade ago eyeing condo conversion” [Aug 28, 2023]
“The building’s status was in limbo for almost six years due to the owners’ unsuccessful $1bn auction attempt in 2017.”
“Financier Jho Low, also known as Low Taek Jho, was a member of the group that owned the hotel.
In 2022, Low was convicted in the US of corruption charges related to embezzling billions of dollars from the Malaysian investment fund.
The US Justice Department had at first wanted to confiscate the hotel as part of its probe against Low.
But the department later reached a deal with the owners, led by developer Steven Witkoff, for the divestment of the property instead. It holds Low’s portion of the proceeds in escrow.
The building’s status was in limbo for almost six years due to the owners’ unsuccessful $1bn auction attempt in 2017.
According to a Bloomberg report, real estate and management company Witkoff Group and the Qatar Investment Authority have not responded to requests for comment regarding the sale, which was first reported by PinusCo.”
3) President Trump: “The nation of Qatar has historically been a funder of terrorism at a very high level”.
President Trump: “I decided, along with secretary of state Rex Tillerson, our great generals and military people, the time had come to call on Qatar to end its funding, they have to end that funding and its extremist ideology.”
President Trump said he helped those countries make the decision to break off relations with Qatar during his trip to Saudi Arabia [last month]. “Nations came together and spoke to me about confronting Qatar over its behaviors,” he said.
1) While repeating his claim that Canada can easily replace their trade relationship with the USA by seeking larger trade relationship with other countries, specifically the EU, current interim Prime Minister Mark Carney repeats that no contact will be attempted or accepted by the Canadian government until President Donald Trump shows him respect.
This doesn't portend favorably for U.S-Canada relations; which, to be fair, they would argue have been destroyed by President Donald Trump questioning their sovereignty.
However, here's the kicker, what Canadians don't seem to realize is that questioning their sovereignty is simply a strategy by President Trump to eliminate the one-sided trade relationship with Canada.
It is funny to me that Canada just can't figure this out.
2) As long as Canada refuses to engage with President Trump due to a perceived lack of respect, President Donald Trump will continue to enhance his disrespect of Canada, because the absence of engagement assists his 'total trade reset' objective.
President Trump wants to show, perhaps prove to the Canadian people, how dependent they are on their USA relationship; vis-a-vis they are already not a sovereign, economically independent nation.
3) Somewhere around 80% of Canadians have no concept of how their economy is functioning.
Most Canadians seem to think they have some form of capitalistic system in operation and tweeking the knobs will fix things; it won’t.
So, from an American political perspective, specifically from the perspective of President Trump - as noted in all of his repeated remarks about the upcoming Canadian election, having Mark Carney carry out his policies and watching the system therein collapse, might break the borg-mindset.
Sure, it will be massively painful for Canadians when their currency heads toward 0.25¢ to the US dollar. However, that currency collapse will more than eliminate any Trump tariff impact.
She's active..... All indications are she's active.
To give you an idea of her scope of influence as a key functionary, consider what we can document.
♦ McCord submitted the fraudulent FISA application to spy on Trump campaign.
♦ McCord created the “Logan Act” claim used against Michael Flynn and then went with Sally Yates to confront the White House.
♦ McCord then left the DOJ and went to work for Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler on Impeachment Committee.
♦ McCord organized the CIA rule changes with Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson.
♦ McCord led and organized the impeachment effort, in the background, using the evidence she helped create.
♦ McCord joined the FISA Court to protect against DOJ IG Michael Horowitz's newly gained NSD oversight and FISA review.
♦ McCord joined the J6 Committee helping to create all the lawfare angles they deployed.
♦ McCord then coordinated with DA Fani Willis in Georgia.
♦ McCord was working in the background with Special Counsel Jack Smith to prosecute Trump.
♦ McCord is on record advocating for new coordinated Lawfare attacks against Donald Trump in term #2
♦ McCord testified against AG nominee Pam Bondi, saying Bondi must recuse herself from investigating McCord and her efforts on the J6 committee.
♦ Joe Biden appears to have presumptively pardoned Mary McCord.
None of that touches on her husband, Sheldon Snook who worked at the top of the SCOTUS structure in the office of Chief Justice Roberts. Meanwhile, her efforts using Eisen and Weissmann continue.
All indications lean toward her still being active
1.) Notice how the FBI reviewed the President's cell phone data, during their process to request search warrants to review the President's cell phone data. This is ex post facto and against the law.
2.) This brings us back to the central point I have been making for years.
The modern FBI is the police agency of a weaponized U.S government, with a direct and purposeful mandate to keep the American people under control through strict surveillance and a violent police state.
3.) Every member of the FBI is a participant in the weaponization of power and government. The members are jackboots recruited from ideological college campuses for exactly the purpose of supporting a Stasi-like police state.
Through the past several years, we have discovered how the FBI worked inside Twitter, Facebook and social media to control information, remove content and manipulate opinion on behalf of the U.S. government – all activity political.
We have also learned the FBI took active measures to suppress information about the Hunter Biden laptop and control any negative consequences for the Biden regime – again, political. These are not disputed realities.
The U.S. Dept of Justice and FBI are now political institutions that have abandoned their originating mission in order to become the domestic equivalent of the Soviet-era FSB. Their joint targeting mechanisms have been redesigned to support the interests of corrupt DC politicians, specifically the interests of Democrats.
