Is "global warming" real? Who dares to say that it is not? The mainstream media shoves that message down our throat whether we like it or not. University researchers are enticed to find those results and punished when they find anything else. And no one seems to be counting the artificial manipulation of the weather with chemtrails, H.A.A.R.P., and other secret means. Humans are warming it, but it is a concerted effort to warm it and say in an alarmist way that that warming is galloping out of control now. We ignore our eyes. We ourselves do not review the data. When the meteorologist who founded the Weather Channel (weather.com) looked at the data, he did NOT find much of a rise. And he asked his colleagues about. There has been about a 1 degree rise in our lifetimes. Where are all the other headlines coming from and why? They will make us believe and demand that they intervene. We will not only give up our rights, we will demand they be taken away. There may be a mini ice age on the way, but we'll never hear about that above the din of alarmism and artificial youth movements kickstarted to promote an agenda. Natural global warming being brought on by consumer activity? Unlikely. Being brought on by corporate officials and their masters? Obviously.
(AmeriScope) Love travels quietly across the country and into Virginia
Where was God as the shooter fired through stained glass windows, hitting kids and the elderly? Shock jock Tom Leykis used to have a weekly segment called something like "This Week in God" talking about how frequently church and Godly activities were the subjects of disaster, suggesting there was no such God overlooking and protecting His worshippers.
A dozen coincidences? There has been a string of intentional false alarms ("swattings") across the country reporting school shootings, reports Gary Hoffman (KFI). This started last Thursday, first at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, and then within minutes and hours another at Villanova and soon hoaxes at ten other schools: U of Arkansas; U of Colorado, Boulder; Louisianna State of Alexandria; Iowa State; Kansas State; U of New Hampshire; Northern Arizona; U of South Carolina; U of Tennessee; West Virginia U; and then Villanova got another threat.
A mass school shooting occurred during the first week of classes at a Minneapolis Catholic school, the Minnesota governor [failed Democratic candidate Tim Walz?] said. There was no immediate information on any injuries, but later it was found two children, 8 and 10, were murdered and 17 19 others (15 of them children) injured. A transsexual American, Robin, 23, then unalived herself in line with her programming. Police Chief Brian O'Hara is distraught by his department's failure in this matter.

Himanshu (@H_Singh1708) The suspected Minneapolis church shooter, Robin M. Westman, had a now-deleted YouTube channel with videos showing guns, a manifesto in Russian and English, and a church map. His content displayed extreme views, including pro-Russian, pro-trans, pro-communist, and anti-Trump, anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, and anti-Indian messages, mixing controversial topics and online memes.

The Buddhist lunar observance: uposatha
.
Moon over sacred Shwedagon Pagoda, Burma
The weekly "Sabbath" day (a word that literally means Saturday), the Buddha pointed out, was aligned with the moon since ancient times. He continued the tradition by encouraging followers to step up their spiritual exertions in these ways:
Rather than the normal adherence to the Five Precepts (abstaining from killing, stealing, sexual misconduct, lying, or consuming intoxicants that lead to heedlessness), Eight Precepts are undertaken for the day. Visiting the temple or monastic complex for studying, hearing, and practicing the Dharma, the Buddha's Teachings, is done to rededicate oneself to the practice of the Path to awakening.
This is often called the "fasting day" not because one does not eat but because one fasts from noon onwards, not taking dinner or anything after the sun is directly overhead. (We often take three or more meals a day, and fast food commercials tell us to add another late night This is to preserve energy to put forth in one's kammathana or "field of endeavor," one's meditation subject or striving to establish a good habit, such as overcoming a particular obstacle or impediment to one's practice.
Say, for example, laziness were an issue. One might undertake the dhutangaor "sane ascetic" practice of not lying down for 24 hours and instead strive diligently while sitting, standing, or walking. This should only be undertaken under the supervision of a sufficiently skillful teacher for guidance, for otherwise we might only be exacerbating our imbalances without actually addressing what needs addressing.
If we tend to overeat, we might fast the whole day.
If we overtalk, we might observe noble silence or complete silence to balance out our tendency.
If we have an issue with some unskillful karmic habit, we might address it intensively on this day with help from a monk, nun, or meditation teacher.
In my case, I might notice an issue with getting angry or annoyed or being irritable and may therefore want to practice loving-kindness (metta bhavana) for the full day.
Others may constantly find themselves distracted or addicted to their phones and may want to strengthen their mindfulness (sati) by attending to the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, or at least the first, which is "mindfulness of the body" unbroken for a whole day.
Another may think the biggest issue is lust, greediness, or selfish behavior, in which case sharing, sacrificing for others, helping, giving, or letting go might be wise.
In ancient India, "Buddhists" (disciples of the Enlightened One, the Buddha) would come to the monastery and spend the whole day and night (24 hours) there dressed all in white. This was the custom even in modern times in Theravada Buddhist countries.
Rather than sleeping, one might meditate the whole night or take just a few hours, say maybe four, of rest before returning home and resuming normal activities and the Five Precepts.
The Buddha highly praised "keeping the Sabbath," keeping one day -- in accordance with a phase of the moon visible to everyone looking up at the sky, particularly the full moon -- sacred, holy, or for intensive effort. Most of us will not become monastics even temporarily in this life, but we can have the benefits of monastic practice and quick progress even while leading a completely worldly life if we always remember the uposatha. - Dharma Editor Seven, Wisdom Quarterly 2025

Trump starts the world’s dumbest trade war, doubles down on DEI, and turns on California's faucet
(Jimmy Kimmel Live) Feb. 3, 2025: Punxsutawney Phil emerged and declared six more weeks of winter, Kanye West showed up on the Grammys red carpet despite not being invited, Illuminati member Will Smith was in attendance ostensibly to honor Quincy Jones (but really to remediate his destroyed reputation and that of his blank ex-wife), NBA star Luka Doncic somehow got traded to LA in maybe the most shocking move ever, Do Jo Trump is still posting about all of the water he thinks he sent Southern California, the White House is continuing to double down on his nonsensical assumption that DEI caused the tragic air crash last week in Washington, on Saturday Trump issued tariffs on Canada and Mexico before un-issuing them today, the Wall Street Journal ran an editorial saying his tariffs would cause the dumbest trade war in history, and a brand new declassified files edition of Lie Witness News.
Jon on Trump’s trade war, the war on DEI, and myth of “meritocracy”
(The Daily Show) Feb. 3, 2025: Jon Stewart examines Trump's attacks on trans people, Canada, and DEI as his first presidential orders of business and asks: How is that making America great again? Plus, the Best F**kin' News Team debate on where they rank in the DEI hierarchy. #DailyShow #Comedy #JonStewart
In a time where it seems that all news is bad news, there has been a surprising and extremely encouraging discovery that would certainly be considered great news.
[That is, assuming it wasn't a hidden fact to promote climate alarmism, global warming, and overheating oceans to promote a capitalist agenda of selling pollution credits to corporations to let them legally pollute for profit and profit from selling the permission to pollute to others. Is there any better single way of destroying the natural environment than capitalism?]
Researchers from the University of Queensland have found that there are far more coral reefs on planet Earth than previously assumed.
In fact, they found more than 200,000 miles of coral in the ocean’s shallow waters.
Now, they hope this "new" information will help scientists around the world understand and protect these and all other reefs.
The reason coral is dying, bleaching, and eroding away was discovered by Dr. Joel Wallach, though no one seems to pay attention to his groundbreaking discovery. He is famous, though hardly known by the average person, for solving the riddle of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), finding the nutritional deficiencies that were ruining mothers' lives after their horrifying losses as they were blamed for rolling on their children and killing them. But it was something missing from the SAD (Standard American Diet). When replaced, we stopped hearing about SIDS until now nearly no one remembers it.
What is the cause of coral reef loss, according to Dr. Wallach? The building of dams all around the world, depriving the ocean of massive amounts of minerals from silt spilled into the seas from rivers before they were blocked. These base minerals countered acidity. Acidic ocean conditions erode coral reefs. It can be undone.
"HIGH ALERT! This is a state of emergency in the US" | Morris Invest
(Morris Invest) July 22, 2024: We are witnessing a tipping point moment for the United States of America. Pres. Biden [aka Genocide Joe] is stepping down from the next presidential race, the other candidate was almost assassinated, and there a massive collapse of America's infrastructure will be used to control all of us. The [Clinton-affiliated] CrowdStrike failure is just the beginning.

Jon Stewart on bi migrant fearmongering, Ronny Chieng on Trump's Black AI attempt
(The Daily Show)
March 9, 2024: Jon Stewart unpacks the GOP’s migrant crime fearmongering and brings in genius comedienne Desi Lydic to brainstorm on how Democrats might convict Trump. Ronny Chieng recaps Super Tuesday, the U.S. sending trivial and pathetic amounts of humanitarian aid to Gaza while generously funding Israel's genocide, ethnic cleansing, and crimes against humanity (no matter that the International Court of Justice is onto both countries and pursuing prosecutions against them, for which they will diplomatically cover one another as they have done for a long time), and Trump’s attempt to lure in Black voters with AI.
(Jimmy Dore) Our open border policy is intended to destroy America
Jimmy Dore RESPONDS to immigration stance hypocrisy accusation
Tweedle-dumb and Tweedle-Dem (Money Party)
Jimmy Dore, with more information, makes an about face and agrees that the border needs to be shut down because this crisis is being manufactured intentionally for some other purpose, such as what favors the ruling class of billionaire donors/movers and shakers behind our one-party system, with two wings and two wingnuts (Trump and Biden) as the faces of each side when they don't decide anything they are not allowed to decide. In this sense, Trump might be 1% better than Biden because he frustrates the ruling class by not opening new war fronts, whereas Biden never met a military engagement he didn't like and support, other than Vietnam when he was at risk of potentially being drafted, not that that was going to be allowed to happen. Would Trump accept a new war if it meant the powers that be promised to get him (s)elected him next time. We think so. He's really no substantive alternative to the current system just more of the same with more bluster, self-interest, and stupidity to boot. Vote neither of the two evils. Go Green with Jill Stein. Go Independent with Andrew D. Basiago. Go Libertarian with RFK Jr. Anything might be better than more of the same old same old. Because as a wise observer once said, "If you think the System is working, you must be working for the System." Down with the System. Reform it, realign it, or revolt against it. This is no way for a free country to keep deceiving its citizens and the world.

12-year-old mocks Greta Thunberg on mass surveillance and smart cities
(The Jimmy Dore Show) Aug. 23, 2023: #TheJimmyDoreShow This past Saturday, the Stop Oxford: No 15 Minute Cities community day of action was held in Oxford, England, in the UK, attracting thousands of protesters. Among the speakers was a 12-year-old girl named “Jasmin,” who quickly went viral for claiming the 15-minute neighborhoods were “soon to become digital ID facial recognition zones.”
Guest Host Craig “Pasta” Jardula, along with Jimmy Dore and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the newfound prominence of this so-called Anti-Greta Thunberg.

NEED ANYMORE PROOF?!
(Russell Brand) July 27, 2023. As enfeebled Joey Biden’s Climate Czar John Kerry is caught lying about owning and using a private jet, does this show everything we already thought about the Establishment’s standard of hypocrisy when it comes to the climate? It’s OK when they do it. And what about sweet but phony Greta Thunberg? What will this mean about her likely ghostwritten climate book? #climatechange #climate #global
Bombshell: Last week’s "record high temperatures" were FAKED
Buy my book anyway.
(The Jimmy Dore Show) July 22, 2023. Recent alarming reports of skyrocketing temperatures setting records across Europe and the United States were terrifying. But guess what?
They were [purposely] inaccurate. News programs across the world reported temperatures rather than air temperatures — the latter being what we’re used to hearing about. Surface temperatures can be significantly higher than air temps, and they're more frightening.
Jimmy Dore and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why the Establishment has taken to outright lying about key climate change issues.
(KUSI News) Feb 5, 2010. John Coleman is the creator and founder of The Weather Channel (weather.com), the original weatherman on Good Morning America, and now the lead meteorologist at KUSI-TV.
Do you believe your own eyes or the media? This picture of a SoCal beach, they would have you believe, is a scene of mass murder as beachgoers contract and spread the current coronavirus, cause of the common cold and annual flus (Allen J. Schaben/LA Times). IT'S ALARMISM!
(Disclosure Library, 5/5/20) WARNING: Banned! Do not watch! Plandemic is a documentary film about the global plan to control our health, liberty, and lives.

Sure you weren't hospitalized, but...
If one goes to the doctor, one will be tested by swab or blood or both. If testers determine one has or has ever been exposed to anything currently being called "Covid-19," and the definition of that changes since tests differ, are undependable, and are subject to political influences, one then goes home. That brief visit is being counted as a "hospitalization." The upshot of this semantic manipulation is a "spike" in hospitalizations. Most people are not getting ill. It's unlikely that anyone should worry themselves sick. But the media will worry us, saying that people are asymptomatic spreaders.
