Spot on - the big story with no follow up is the thing.

What about the Biden impeachment inquiry - didn’t we see actual checks showing Jim Biden repaying Joe’s large “loans”? Now there is radio silence.

At the end of the day nearly everything in American media is manipulated and nothing is trustworthy.

I think The Trusted News Initiative has assumed control.

I too have questioned what the heck happens after the big questions are asked and there are no follow-up answers. I have experienced the same frustrations over and over. We have that kind of frustration here in Oregon over important subjects like increasing homelessness and millions of dollars being thrown around with nothing really changing. There was to be a ban on daytime camping starting September 1st but it never happened because the wise idiots in charge just kept arguing about not enough shelters in spite of all the money spent. Then there is the open fentanyl use and increasing overdoses even among children. The latest on that subject is a bill the governor is to sign which will re-criminalize public hard drug use September 1. If I were a betting person, no way would I bet this will actually happen. Is it any wonder many of us have lost faith that those in office know what they are doing? While the rest just want to be entertained and dumbed down even more? Anyway, thank you, Donald, for your continuous attempts to get to the bottom of something.

I'm in Oregon too. I was born here, third generation, and although I have lived away, unfortunately I'm temporarily back to settle my dad's estate (who was killed by the Jonestown jab). Having closely followed Oregon politics all my adult life...I can tell you exactly what happened...one party rule for 40 years.

Once the Democrat Party took over in the eighties, and took complete control, there has simply been no accountability. They are so cocksure of reelection, they do absolutely nothing. I'm not saying the Republicans are any better, but to get anything done, a state needs two functioning parties holding the other party accountable. We don't have that in Oregon. Nothing works here any more. Try getting something done at the DMV. Remember how the Oregon Employment department fell apart during the scamdemic? They had the money ten years prior, to update the OED computers...but they sat on the funds, and did nothing. One party rule breeds corruption...hence Kitzhaber's girlfriend selling favors from the governor's office, and the secretary of state selling favors to weed dealers, and the voting authorities, over and over again, denying us the chance to recall Kate Brown...and when we finally got the chance...somehow the most unpopular governor in the US, managed to survive the recall. If you voted for this situation, you are part of the problem. Thank goodness, America 2.0 is crashing and burning (probably before the end of this year). It can't go fast enough to suit me.

So sorry about your dad, Kris, Those of us who did not get jabbed were made to feel unclean during the scamdemic and the propaganda and pressure was relentless. Anyway, AMEN to your explanation, and I definitely did not vote for the situation you described above. I have lived many other places and only ended up here in 2011 because I wanted to be close to my daughter and son-in-law. I had visited Portland a number of times and found it to be whimsically magical, which really began to change around 2015 as the ignorant governing policies did more and more damage. Growing up in Southern Indiana I had no idea how bad it could get. My bad for being so naive.

I begged my dad not to take it. He said he would not , but his wife nagged him into it. He tried to hide that fact from me. He died nine months later from rapid-onset CJD.

The last time I was in Indiana was 1997. it may have changed a great deal, but it can't possibly be as bad as the west coast. I imagine southern Indiana is very different (what with Kentucky just across river) than northern Indiana (Gary).

I always hated Portland. When forced to go into town with my parents (sixties) I always felt a heavy blanket of darkness and doom. As the energy worsened over the next three decades, by the late nineties, I would not enter the city limits (except to pass through on highways-which always leaves me feeling weak and sick). A few years ago I decided to get to the bottom of where this foul energy came from. I discovered that from the 20's-60's, Portland was the abortion capital of the west coast. Many of the tall buildings downtown, had secret abortion clinics. In one building, they were burning dead babies in the furnace in the basement, and a murder was committed down there. Wherever, you find sacrificed babies (especially by fire)...Molech can't be far behind.

Well, you can say that again, about northern and southern Indiana. I was actually born in Gary but thankfully did not grow up there. The farther north you go, the more Democrats in charge. When I was two years old my parents moved back to their roots right on the Ohio River and that is where my brother was born. He still lives on the land way out in the country where we grew up. I really hope to move back there before my time is up.

It seems like many places have their Dark Side. The Civil War was so horrible and the Ohio River was the Mason Dixon Line. So it was sometimes brother against brother in that area. Also I grew up in a white county and never really knew any black people until I went to college near South Bend. My dad was very prejudiced but changed as he met the black friends I made there.

As for Portland, I have not been downtown since 2019 and do not intend to go there anymore. It sounds like you are very sensitive and intuitive. My daughter and son-in-law moved here in 2003. When I visited I only focused on being with them and enjoying the natural beauty. Now I realize what was the underbelly and not in plain sight.

Again, I am so very sorry about your dad. So many were either bullied or scared into being jabbed. Thankfully none of my immediate family were. The worst I experienced was wearing a mask, even in my firearms training facility which was under Federal laws. But I took off that damn thing every chance I got.

Good to connect with you and share.

There is a wonderful old piece written by Edwin C. Hill, that I read every Thanksgiving. It's called: Thanksgiving Memories...his recollections about Thanksgiving dinners he experienced in southern Indiana around the turn of the 20th century. And there is, So Dear to My Heart, another gem (I raised a lamb in FFA). Raintree County is a great, but often overlooked film (1957), set in the civil war period in Indiana. I've seen pictures of those beautiful old homes facing the Ohio. If I ever get back there, I plan to check out the area. I found rural Ohio in June to be lovely. If I were you, I'd move back as soon as possible...while we are still free to move about the country.

Strange as it may seem, southern Indiana was actually for the Confederacy, while Louisville was for the Union. No matter where you would have drawn a line in 1860, there were confedreates north of it and unionists south of it.

What is it about the West Coast, whether it is the U.S. or Canada that breeds such willful ignorance? It seems to me that the West coast and the seats of power ( Washington, New York, Toronto, Ottawa etc. ) are under some sort of delusional influence that totally lacks any rational thought.

So sorry to hear about your dad.

That he died from CJD is also significant in that it backs up the Rense/Kahn

ongoing revelations. I am afraid the consequences of the whackzinnes are just

now building up steam. Several people in my age group have passed from strokes and heart attacks recently. It's not letting up as far as I can tell.

Doctors remain blissfully baffled and will stay that ways as long as the checks keep rolling in.

Yes, I listen to every show with Erica, and Monday with Donald. But, having listened to Rense for 23 years, I just can't take his fear-porn-mongering anymore...so I leave it to only those four shows a week.

In the last two and a half years, so many people I know (of all ages) have died, I just can't keep up with it. I'm not even surprised anymore, when I learn of a death. It reminds me of the section of the Dr. Day lecture on the coming NWO (1969) where he said: In the future people will be so used to death they will become hardened, and instead of being upset they will only think, "I don't want that to happen to me".

Men with wives were more jabbed than without.

My wife and I certainly never felt unclean for not being jabbed. Those who lined up for the jab would have probably just a blindly walked into the ovens in Belsen. Remaining unjabbed should be regarded as a badge of honor. My rule of thumb is if it is in the propaganda press it is most likely a lie.

The reason Portland has become a Hellhole:

#1. First they set up the government infrastructure and hired all the cronies and promised to help all the poor so they came downtown where housing was built for them.

#2. Then they raised taxes to pay for all the infrastructure and handouts and so all the businesses moved out of town.

#3. Then the retail outlets had no shoppers so they moved out of town or shuttered.

#4. Then the downtown had nothing but lifeless buildings which attracted all the crackhouses and dope operations, or they paid property owners who looked the other way.

#5. These in turn attracted their clientel, who were largely on the socialist doles, to come and live nearly.

#6. Rising costs of everything under the sun eventually put the clientel out on the streets, which they started using for housing.

You really think the government that caused this mess to being with wants to reverse this trend?

"Is it any wonder many of us have lost faith that those in office know what they are doing?"

Sadly they know exactly what they are doing, it's a grift- it's the stated goals that are the big lie. Someone is getting a chunk of the money spent- usually a sweetheart deal for a donor that somehow finds it's way back to the political coffers.

The recent FTX crypto scam comes to mind- much of the fraud was funneled back to politicians who passed legislation (or were paid to look the other way) which was beneficial to FTX. It's a Big Club and we ain't in it.....

This is a theological problem, and St Paul nails it in his epistle to the Romans. In short, the people around us are addicted to Sex, Drugs, and Rock'n''Roll in many combinations and varieties. They have utterly forgotten why they are here, and where they are going. But yes, we are about to get another cosmic wake-up call. (9-1-1 was a good one for those paying attention, as was the collapse of 2008.)

For Catholics- who are supposed to be leading the pack of Pilgrims to Heaven- Our Lady came to Fatima in 1917, gave us a preview of Coming Attractions, and told exactly what would happen if men (and women) do not repent. The highlight was the "annihilation of nations" (and I suspect the USA is at near the top of that list). Many of us- including this Wolf- suspected something might happen in 2017. Well, the next Century Moments on the timeline are 2025 and 2029 (I won't get into the details here- I have written about this on my Substack).

2020, of course, was another Wake-Up call. And I saw plenty of Ostrich Syndrome that year. The Mask-Wearing Sheeple did not even want to hear arguments that the whole Covid thing might be a hoax. "You blasphemer- Questioning the Gospel of the Nightly News. I hope you drop dead!"

It's the successful implementation of censorship. If people only watch MSM, they are fed a constant stream of lies - which are labeled as "truth" while the actual Truth, outside of the "normal" feeds, is quickly stomped into oblivion. Truly, if you ask people if they've heard or read (heaven forbid!), about a current, serious topic of concern, a blank stare comes back. If you attempt to share, they aren't interested. I have found many of those skating through life on apathy's thin ice took those deadly experimental gene-altering shots. They do cross the blood-brain barrier.

I share your frustration, Donald. I've noticed this for years. Way back in the late eighties, there was a news story that popped up ONCE on the nightly news. It was about an underground city that had been discovered somewhere in Europe, with people living there. A short video clip was shown. I was really excited about the story. I couldn't wait to hear more. But that was it. The story just disappeared. Now I wonder if it was predictive programming for a future psy-op. I've noticed that when predictive programming is not in the form of pop-culture offerings, that it presents as very short "news" clips. In the late nineties, there were a bunch of "news" stories about the dangers of carrying cash...that it was dirty, and could spread disease. By then I could easily recognize predictive programming when I heard it.

Now, every day there are news stories about bodies being found; in parks, on hiking trails, on a floating boat, in ponds, rivers, the surf, in the street. Locally, two bodies were found burning in the street... about a month apart, in different areas. Nothing to see here, folks. The authorities are very quick to reassure the public that : " no foul play is suspected". NEVER is there any follow-up on how these people died.

Congratulations on making Zerohedge, for I think, the third time? Donald Jeffries is moving up in the world of alt-news. Maybe an "offer" is on the near horizon. I know you would never take it. You've proved your integrity and authenticity...at least to me.
