A big part of my job as a researcher in 2017 & then as a political journalist from 2018 going forward was covering how much EFFORT & plotting there was by Obama, Comey, McCabe, Biden, Rice & many others took to get @GenFlynn OUT of the Trump White House just as fast as they could.
The Obama/Biden/Loretta Lynch/James Comey goon squad had to invent something to go after Flynn for.

Then FBI Counter Intel head Bill Priestap helpfully took handwritten notes of a meeting on Jan 4, 2017, as Obama/Biden/Comey/Rice discussed how they could 'get' Flynn.
Had there been anything REAL to investigate Flynn for, they'd have discussed it at that meeting.

There was nothing.

So the group casting about & discussing ideas about what they could to force Flynn out of the Trump WH, get him to lie [or claim that he did] then get him fired. Image
Since there was nothing real they could use to get Flynn on, it was left to then Vice-President Joe Biden to proffer the idea to the group of CLAIMING THAT FLYNN HAD VIOLATED THE LOGAN ACT as a pretext for investigating him.

washingtonexaminer.com/news/biden-rai…
Ironically the notetaker at the meeting who jotted down it was VP Biden who broached the idea to the group in the WH meeting about using a supposed violation of the Logan Act to target General Flynn was none other than...

FBI agent Peter Strzok.

The same agent who would... Image
...less than 3 weeks later drop into Flynn's office in the WH for a 'friendly chat' arranged by James Comey & Andrew McCabe.

The chat was about an illegal leak of classified phone call transcripts to the Washington Post's David Ignatius who wrote a column bringing up the Logan Act and 'wondering' if somehow Flynn had violated Logan Act in his conversations with Kislyak.

Understand the timeline:

An awful lot of people were upset Trump had won that 2016 election over Clinton.

They were looking for a way to 'explain' how Hillary could have lost to an 'idiot' like Trump.

Hillary & her Fake News stenographers had spent the previous month relentlessly floating the narrative that she had not really lost the election at all...

...but rather Trump had had the election stolen for him by the Russians.
Then two specific events STRENGTHENED that "Russia stole it for Trump!" narrative in Jan 2017:

First, on Jan 11, Buzzfeed news published what is commonly referred to as "The Steele Dossier", supposedly a compilation of 'intelligence reports' detailing how Trump & the Russians were colluding together to influence the 2016 election.
Second, Ignatius published THIS column in the Washington Post on Jan. 12 in which he VERY LOUDLY WONDERED if Gen. Flynn had violated the Logan Act by calling up and having several conversations with Russian ambassador Kislyak.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/why-d…
The double-whammy of Buzzfeed publishing the Steele Dossier coupled with Ignatius' column in the WP threw gas on the already burning fire in the FAKE NEWS MEDIA that the American public had just been CHEATED of a Hillary Clinton presidency due to Russian perfidy.
So...timeline:

Jan 4, big pow wow in White House. Heap big chief Biden intros idea of Logan Act to target Flynn.

Jan 12, illegal leak of classified Flynn/Kislyak phone call transcripts to WP.

After increasingly outraged smoke signals from Fake News for more than a week...
...on Jan 21, 2017, 2 FBI agents show up to interview Gen Flynn in the White House about his phone calls with Kislyak.

1 agent is named Peter Strzok. He's pictured below on the left.

The other agent is Joseph Pienka. He's pictured below on the right.

And unfortunately I'll have to continue this thread later.

I am driving to Cocoa Beach FL for an event over the weekend.

Stay tuned! :)

I believe this was the very first drop to mention Epstein.

In 2017.

And it mentioned him in relation to…what?

Here are the first 3 Q drops where Epstein is mentioned.

#1000.

Who is ‘H’?

Why would something in relation to ‘H’ cause Epstein to fill in the island tunnels?

What was ‘H’ so determined to keep hidden she had all Blackberries destroyed with a hammer, all data wiped?

You think you know what’s in those ‘missing 33,000 emails.

Do you?Image
What was the ‘H’ email server scandal really about?

Besides the pay-for-play and the ISIS/Benghazi stuff?

What ‘hidden world’ is revealed in those ‘missing’ 33,000 emails?

Why has ‘H’ and her cult been so determined to kill Assange for a decade now?

Why would Epstein suddenly be exceedingly nervous of his email relationship with ‘H’ and others in her orbit from 2009-2016?

To the point that by November of 2017, he’s ‘investing’ 20m+ to fill in tunnels underneath the ‘temple’ on his island with concrete?
Here is the 4th and the fifth times Epstein is mentioned in the Q drops.

Over a year before Epstein is arrested in 2019.

What do you notice?

Does anything stand out?

What relation to ‘H’ and ‘B’ begin to emerge?

Why is this relevant?

Who is she? Image

Did ‘187 MS-13’ get your attention yet?

If not, why not?

Starting to understand why they fight so hard to defend the MS-13 / Tren de Aragua terrorist cells they imported and set up in business here?

Soros and company spend BIG MONEY funding/training/directing activist groups in attempts to stop MS-13/Tren de Aragua terrorists from being arrested and then deported.

WHY WHY WHY WHY?

WHY SO IMPORTANT TO THEM?

Aren’t you even slightly curious at this point?

Why are governors and Senators and mayors and chiefs of police crying on your TV over apprehension and deportation of MS-13 and Tren de Aragua terrorist cells?

WHY WHY WHY WHY?

WHY SO IMPORTANT TO THEM?

START ASKING THE RIGHT FUCKING QUESTIONS.

Who is she?

START THERE.Image
Who took the picture?

Why, in all the publicizing of the picture, do they studiously AVOID THE IMPORTANT TOPIC OF WHO TOOK IT?

Why would they do that? For what purpose would they avoid the topic of who took the picture?

Are you curious at all about why they deliberately avoid revealing who took this picture?

Dear ‘new’ media.

START DOING YOUR FUCKING JOBS.Image
How were they able to hide before now? How were they able to prevent their exposure? How were they able to make cases against them that managed to be brought…go away? How were they able to stop investigations into their sick and evil activities?

What did they slowly lose control of over the past year?Image

Here's your weekly reminder that THESE are the two people who - according to the US political elite class in Washington, D.C. and many of our US states and large cities - SHOULD HAVE BEEN running the Executive Branch agencies of our federal government for the past year.

Stand by for thread.Image
What if - thought experiment here, just work with me, ok? - What if Harris and Walz had by some miracle WON the 2024 election?

What very different state would the country be in right now?

Well, let me count the ways!
1. THE BORDER WOULD STILL BE WIDE OPEN.

Of course it would be. Even though 'Border Czar' Harris would have been the President for the last year.

Mayorkas may very well have been retained as DHS Secretary. No Kristi Noem. No Tom Homan. No 2 million illegals deported or self-deported this year.

Another couple of million illegals streaming into the United States this year over the open border, with our great Border Patrol forced to still play processers before turning the vast majority of the illegals loose into the interior of our country.

Massive amounts of human trafficking would still be occurring WITH OUR OWN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ENABLING MUCH OF IT, WHEN IT WAS NOT ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING IN IT.

Millions more illegals streaming in to pump up those House seat #'s for Democrats, as well as draining more welfare resources while they take jobs from American citizens. Oh, and housing too.

I could go on but you get the idea, right?

The border is completely closed now. Trump has the military guarding it. Which it should have been doing all along.

Trump has freed DHS and HHS and ICE and the Border Patrol from being forced to corruptly ASSIST IN HUMAN TRAFFICKING to DESTROYING THE HUMAN TRAFFICKING NETWORKS by shutting down the border.

What if they updated the "Noble Lord v Serf" scheme for modern audiences? To fool as much of the public into believing they live in a 'constitutional republic' or a 'democracy' when in fact, they do not?

They actually live inside a Noble Lord v the Serfs paradigm? 🤔
How did the "Noble Lord" class of families exert total control over the Kings of the past?

Why did the King always have to do what the Noble class of banking families told him to do?

What happened when the King didn't want to do what the Noble Lord banking families were telling him to do?

Why did holding power over a kingdom's debts give certain Noble class families immense power over kingdoms?Image
What if...just go with me here in a thought experiment, OK?...WHAT IF...back in the 1700s and 1800s these Noble Class Banking Families that were ruling over kingdoms quite openly read the handwriting on the wall and adjusted their strategies & methods to maintain control? Image

I didn't go public with my support for Q until mid-2022.

A lot of people don't understand what a disciplined mind looks like.

Let me explain.

Most people BELIEVE they have to form an opinion on something instantly. They are presented with a host of optional narratives and it's up to them to instantly pick WHICH ONE OF THEM IS CORRECT, without having done any due diligence.

1/
Did you know you can actually TRAIN YOUR MIND not to do that?

It's true.

Especially on controversial subjects of great importance?

Modern society is specially formulated and designed - especially via mass media/population control methods and techniques - to encourage NOT carefully studying something before making any kind of commitment to a proposition.

Instead, serious thought, resources, money and time has been invested in forming a public opinion sphere in which people are constantly urged, pressured, browbeat, tricked, and propagandized into instant adoption of whatever The Current Thing is.

This is why I have developed the practice of grace with people.

I'm on an exceedingly strange 10 year journey still where I've discovered that very much of what I had taken to be my foundational beliefs about the nature of the world and of my own country and its history was false and deceptive.

When you begin to realize that foundational beliefs you've built your life on, your understanding of your world and its history are not true, you face a difficult task of not only figuring out what isn't true in the past and forming a more accurate picture of it, but you find you must also deal with the present.

Why do I say that?

I say that because you come to realize the same people who lied to you about so many important issues and events from decades ago are very much, in the current moment, at this time, STILL lying to you about what is happening now.

This is a very real problem.

2/
The first order of business when you realize much of what you believe about the world and its past is a carefully crafted illusion, is to discern exactly what techniques and methods were utilized to get you to accept the illusion.

For instance, how was I tricked and deceived and pressured and propagandized for over 20 years about what really happened on 9/11?

By what methods and techniques did The Powers That Be guided and steered me into accepting The Popular Illusion about 9/11?

Just discovering THAT you were lied to about so much is highly disillusioning and disconcerting. But most people stop there. They don't go on to examining HOW they were induced to believe all of that stuff.

Many people might know THAT they were lied to about 9/11, the 2020 election, the COVID Plandemic [no, I didn't misspell it!], the Hunter Biden laptop, and a host of other issues in the past, decades or even just a few years ago.

What they haven't done is taken the time to study, reflect on, discern, and learn HOW the people did the lying, the ones who created the illusions, 'cast that spell' over them, so to speak.
