In these End Times, anyone with fame and fortune is playing on the devil's team. It's A Wonderful Life used to be one of my favorite films...but I can no longer watch the ending. It flies in the face of everything I've experienced in the last 32 years...at which time I consciously did a 180, after a religious conversion experience. After 32 years of actively seeking to be of service to others (usually strangers) all I've gotten is a kick in the teeth. Believe me, it has been only faith in a better future coming, that keeps me in the fight.
Donald, I find your voice very soothing, so it was a horrible juxtaposition to turn off your Monday night with Rense and have my vehicle commandeered, my keys taken, and have a gun pushed in my face at point blank range, accompanied by a threat to blow my brains out.
Monday, I thought I'd do a spot of birdwatching at an island in the Columbia river 15 miles from my home. Mind you, it had been 14 months since I had traveled away from my home for anything other than going to the store. I'm that done with dealing with crazy people. Usually I leave my phone in the vehicle, but I wanted to hear your regular gig with Rense. You had just left the air, I got in my vehicle and I was pulling out of the parking lot. A man came running up, seemly out of nowhere. He jumped on my running board, grabbed the steering wheel through the open window, and with his other hand , shoved his gun in my face. He was screaming for me to return his phone. He ordered me to give him my keys, which i did without protest. His partner then blocked me with a pick-up. He kept the gun in my face all while, screaming how he was going to kill me. I talked him down and offered to let him search my vehicle for the missing phone . That subdued him to the point they returned my keys and let me go, but preceded me down the road, leaving me in their dust. Further down the road, they blocked the road, and we went through the entire silly charade a second time. They again let me go , heading in the other direction...and I drove home as fast as I could. I decided not to file a police report, because here in Oregon, its pretty much futile, anyway.
It surprised me how calmly I handled the episode...but I have nerves of steel, after a lifetime of dealing with crazy, unstable people. Jesus had my back, for which I am thankful beyond words. Bottom line: after 32 years of doing everything in my power to disengage from our crazy world, even something as benign as a few hours birdwatching could have been a fatal mistake.
Wow, Kris, that is quite a story. I'm certainly glad you're okay. I still love "It's a Wonderful Life," although the ending is probably an impossible fantasy. I don't think if I was in danger of losing everything financially, that my family and friends I've met in person would parade over to my house and throw enough cash into a bucket to solve the situation. But as I've said many times, like Jim Garrison, I probably watched way too many Frank Capra films. As always, thanks!
Well, we share the Catholic upbringing...our parents brought us up to "be good" and that has never left me. Unfortunately, the past couple of years have taught me that most everything I was brought up to believe is false. The world is more evil than I ever believed possible...no matter. The people that I choose to associate with or follow online are still the "good guys." Thanks for being one of them...
Very well written. I'm totally in with what you're saying. When people really find truth they'll act much more humanely. It just may take some of us another incarnation or more.
Search for the truth. I apologize for this sermon. 😍
With all respect, Don, I think some people are born evil. Quite a few actually. Just scrutinize the scum placed in positions of authority over us by their ruling class masters, who are even more demonic. There are men, and women, who walk this earth without souls, their human-like countenance notwithstanding. I haven't just read about them, I've encountered them in the course of my life. If you find a nest of cockroaches in your home, you don't negotiate or try to reason with them, you exterminate them with extreme prejudice. Thus should it be with our tormentors and destroyers along with all who support them. Wipe them and their progeny from the face of the earth and eradicate their memory. The alternative for the rest of us is death and destruction. It is total war, a war without mercy, no quarter asked and none given. They are winning hands down because the majority of our people don't even realize a war of annihilation is being waged against them due to apathy, cowardice, and abject stupidity. By the way, all of those televangelist, rich swine "Christian" preachers are androgyne transsexuals, including the demonic "Prosperity Preacher" Betty White. This sub-human was "spiritual advisor" to Trump when he was Puppet-in-Chief of the Scumerican Slobocracy. That alone should tell you all you need to know about that orange headed, phony, blowhard, charlatan piece of slime. Disagreement nonetheless, thanks for a sharp and provocative article, Don.
I understand your perspective, Hereticdrummer, which is eloquently stated as usual. I was entranced by "The Bad Seed." Maybe there are bad seeds. It's the old liberal in me. Thanks.
Watched an older man open the door for a younger woman at work. She didn’t even acknowledge him. No good deed goes unpunished. After seeing the fag flag at the White House I am done. Russia please nuke the US
I agree that kind of thing is infuriating, Gregory. But it's not just young girls. I've seen oldsters not acknowledge someone holding a door for them. Politeness isn't "cool." Thanks.
Empathy is a useful emotion like guilt. But you don't need to empathize or like someone to look out for their well-being.
Case in point: a detestable old lady with a shrill voice and bad vision walks in front of a bus and you save her by pulling her out of harm's way. You don't feel friendliness, sympathy or warm fuzzies yet still save her life.
Virtuous feelings are helpful but not the same as active virtue.
I understand what you're saying, RE. But empathy is at the heart of the Golden Rule. As Jesus said, the essence of his message is love thy neighbor as yourself. It's easy to love those who love you, or treat you well. But it's very, very hard to love those who hate you. I'm not saying I can do it, either. The Golden Rule is something very few people have been able to follow. I wrote this on my blog a few years back, but it remains relevant: https://donaldjeffries.wordpress.com/2018/09/27/the-unpopular-golden-rule/
The Golden Rule was what I was thinking about. I think empathy and real love are different things. Some people are so mean and nasty you can't empathize with them. But you can love them anyhow by determining to look out for their well-being. Empathy usually follows.
It's "altar" boys not "alter" boys. Alter boys would refer to young male victims of trauma based mind control. One becomes a multiple personality accordingly. One has alters, fragmented personalities. Now there's a new mind control cult: gender identity, which seeks to spawn generations of alters who alter their biology based on repetitive media indoctrination into that newly sanctioned cult.
That was actually English jurist William Blackstone who said that. Brilliant words that warm the hearts of the few remaining civil libertarians like me. I doubt that 1% of the American people would agree with him today. Thanks.
Do you have an opinion of Fabio Vighi whose theory is that covid didn't exist and the whole psyop was a cover for economic collapse? Maybe to buy time to institute digital slavery currency.
That's basically what I detail in my new book "Masking the Truth: How COVID-19 Destroyed Civil Liberties and Shut Down the World." They have never isolated the COVID-19 strain, in other words, proved it exists. Not sure it was related to the economic collapse. It certainly proved to them that they can get us to obey any orders. Thanks.
Jon Rappaport was far ahead of Fabio Vighi. Being a regular reader of his blog, I knew from the first day that the "pandemic" was a fraud and that the killer plague virus was imaginary. I have nothing against Fabio Vighi, but I do give credit where it is due and Jon Rappaport had been saying the same thing about the "AIDS epidemic" and the "Swine Flu pandemic" from the very beginning of both of those Fauci promoted frauds. Readers of his work already knew what Fabio Vighi is sayng about the 'pandemic" fraud.
Yes, Jon was one of the first to expose this farce. I had him on my show at the very beginning of the psyop, and quoted quite a bit from his excellent work in "Masking the Truth." Thanks.
After I left the church suddenly I could see. They blinded me with bible. Beat me with it. Threatened me with eternal damnation. Tim Tebow is a speaker now. He charges between $50K-$100K for a one hour presentation. I have no idea what he talks about--THE NFL IS COMPLETELY RIGGED? That would be good. I recently watched a bunch of these corrupt ministers. For some weird reason most of them turn gay, say they aren't, then gay again, say they aren't and repeat until the evidence is so overwhelming they can't say they aren't. It's insane. I watched this one recently. Her ending is a real crash landing. Thanks Don. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5ayw21ZE6g
Mike, you've disillusioned me. Tebow gets that kind of money? Hopefully he funnels it into his foundation. Which, I know, is a tax shelter. Yes, the NFL is rigged. But they should have let Tebow be a performer. Thanks!
I can send you his link. But please don’t ask me to. I posted a link on my SS about being a speaker for $$$$. I’m sure he donates most of it to charity. I’d use it to open up Ghost Brewing with a massive garden. I want to be one of those $$$peakers. I have some real good stories.
You just have to be true to what you are, no matter the cost, because as you give, so shall you receive. In a roundabout way, not in a linear one. Ignore the rest, just bounce them off of your thick skin. One does need to grow armoring in this cattle drive. Eventually we will arrive at the moment of the division and separation of the righteous from the lemmings. And we will feel compassion but we will stay the course. It is the great lesson of Free Will.
Isn't it ironic that We, as an open society, may be more inclined to Sympathize rather than Empathize with others? Two terms deemed similar, but, vastly different by definition. I'll continue to value and recognize the do-gooders too, Don!
Jon Rappaport is amazing. I have been following him for years and I know he was one of the first voices to say that the virus doesn't exist. I can't remember Jon linking it to the repo market crisis in late 2019, which seems to be just an extension of the bandaids put on the world economy when they blew it up in 2008. It is Vighi's expansion into the financial aspect that I particularly like.

I appreciate your support, FLSherri. Yes, "be good" still rings in my ears. Why doesn't everyone say that to their children? Thanks!

As always, Norman, thanks for the support!
Many grew up with a super hero.
Happy Father's day
I'm glad you did, David. I guess my mother was a super hero. Thanks.
I'm sorry you feel that way.

I stand grammatically corrected. Thanks.
Which one of our Founding Fathers said, "It's better to acquit ten guilty than to convict one innocent?"
Was it Jefferson?
What ever happened to that concept. I guess this is why I have never made it onto an
actual jury.
That was actually English jurist William Blackstone who said that. Brilliant words that warm the hearts of the few remaining civil libertarians like me. I doubt that 1% of the American people would agree with him today. Thanks.
Very well written Donald! Thank you so much!!💚
Thanks, Chris!
This was a great, great piece Don. Really needed to read this. Thank you!
Thanks, Smoke!
As usual, your observations are entirely accurate. Positive thinking masquerading as the gospel, etc.
Since the good guys are in steep decline, I think we need new categories for the current crop of humanity. How about:
MM's (masked morons. self explanatory)
CC's (cruel cowards. the people that used to be our friends but refused to look behind the curtain and decided to throw us under the bus)
CGI (craven, godless idiots)
LDD (logic deficit disorder)
Feel free to add to the list. To paraphrase Gore Vidal "Stupidity fascinates me."
Or perhaps we are just seeing 2 Timothy 3: 1-9 playing out in real time.
p.s. Your books look great and I am going to order them.
I appreciate the kind words, Gwaihir. Your suggestions are all appropriate. At this point, it's impossible to spoof the madness. Thanks!

I just bought both books you mentioned in the article. I love reading sane writers.
Thanks!
