Christmas Cookie Countdown

Recently one of my oldest friends and her husband came for a visit (and to pick up my mom’s contributions to their flea marketing endeavor.) She has begun to have muscular tremors and is undergoing tests to determine their origin and best course of treatment.  Sadly, she has had to give up her car and rarely goes out anymore because these tremors can occur at any time.  I was truly touched that they decided to come up to visit!

Her husband, with her permission, showed up a brief video of her standing in their kitchen.  She was trembling all over and visibly shaking and then-POOF-she just snaps out of it.  She remembers nothing of what happened at all. 

Understandably, her husband now does the cooking as my friend is afraid to be around a hot stove.  Which brings me to the saddest part of this post.  Every fall, when my friend visits, we would spend the entire time talking cookies—we called it Christmas Cookie Countdown.

We’d sit at the table with our notebooks, recipe files and samples of new cookies.  We’d made and share shopping lists and discuss the new cookies—would they package well?  Are they worth the effort or special ingredients? We had a great time sampling and discussing.

Since I was totally unaware of her condition, I had all my recipes and stuff ready to go on the buffet.  I saw her eye the pile with such sadness but until they divulged what was going on, I had no idea why.  After we ate our lunch and I cleaned up the kitchen, I brought the stack over to the table and said let’s plan!  She said, I can’t bake anymore and it’s senseless to think about.  I opened up my file and said Merry Christmas!  You pick out the cookies you want, and my gift to you this Christmas is to bake them for you! I told her I’d even bake an extra basket for her to share with her flea market friends as well.  Her smile was all the thanks I needed!

    1. Morning, Pat! How sad! I’m assuming they have considered one common, basic cause of tremors: low salt level? Still dark here, too, at 56 now. Simply stunning day yesterday! GT’s food is on the patio, no sign yet.

  1. Pat, your friend really should check into CBD – it is amazing for Parkinsons and other diseases that cause tremors and seizures. I’ve posted some of these before – this is just one of several videos I have saved that show the benefits. At this point, considering how thoroughly corrupt Big Pharma is these days, I would try that before I would accept any of their damned poisons! I get that they may be totally closed-minded about this. Still….if it were my friend, I would at least try to convince them to at least check into it. It won’t hurt her if it doesn’t help…just sayin.’

    Did you know the United Nations is planning to seize “global emergency powers” with President Joe Biden’s support?

    It’s true. Under a shocking new plan that is scheduled to be adopted two months before the U.S. presidential election in 2024, all it would take is some sort of a major “global shock”, for immediately enabling the United Nations to literally take political authority over the entire planet.

    A July 4 article in The Federalist first broke the story. Unfortunately the mainstream media in the United States is not covering this at all, so most people have absolutely no idea this is going on. To many this may sound like a conspiracy theory, but this is actually what is being proposed, and the Biden administration is fully behind this insidious plan.

    In the month of September 2024, UN global representatives will gather for “the Summit of the Future”, and during that conference UN member states are scheduled to officially ratify a “Pact for the Future”.

    Once enacted, the “Pact for the Future” grants global powers to the U.N. plan for a new “emergency platform” – a stunning proposal to give the U.N. significant powers in the event of future “global shocks,” such as; “major climatic event,” “future pandemic risks,” a “global digital connectivity disruption,” “major event in outer space,” and generic “unforeseen risks”, (‘black swan’ events).”

    The proposal is the biggest attempted power grab in the history of the United Nations. If approved, the United States as we know it could cease to exist:

  10. “‘Sad and horrific’: starving bear’s intestines were blocked by garbage” @ CNN

    “These wipes were removed from a bear that had to be euthanized by Colorado Parks and Wildlife. | Colorado Parks and Wildlife”

    TELLURIDE, Colorado (CNN) — Colorado wildlife officers had to euthanize a sick bear after receiving multiple calls from concerned residents in Telluride. And during a necropsy, wildlife officers came across a disturbing discovery inside the bear.

    “There was all these paper towels, wipes, plastic bag type materials, and indigestible food content,” said John Livingston, Colorado Parks and Wildlife spokesperson. “Trash content … wasn’t able to move its way through to the lower intestines.” All of which was prohibiting the male black bear from absorbing proper nutrients. “A bear like this is about 400 pounds and has a lot of fat on it,” Livingston told CNN, which means the mammal would have possibly starved for months before dying. “To be eating and eating and not able to break down any of that food would have been a really sad and horrific way for that bear to suffer as it died,” he said.

    Officers had to make an ‘unfavorable call’ — “The first thing we noticed right away was a little bit of foam around its mouth,” Livingston said. While the foaming didn’t appear to be rabies, officers noticed other concerning behaviors. The bear also had puffy eyes, which “indicated that it was battling some kind of infection,” Livingston noted. “He would walk about 20 or 30 yards at a time before needing to lay down.” These symptoms signaled to the wildlife officers the bear was in a lot of abdominal pain, the spokesperson said.

    “We could not leave a sick bear like this knowing it was suffering and struggling to survive,” said Rachel Sralla, Colorado Parks and Wildlife area manager, in a news release. “That’s a horrific way to die, decaying from the inside out for that long. As officers, we had to make an unfavorable call,” Sralla said. “It’s a call we wish we never had to make.” The bear was put down on the evening of September 9.

    In addition to preventing the bear from suffering, “CPW made the decision to euthanize the animal for human health and safety reasons,” the release said. Although the decision didn’t come easy, it brought a sense of relief to the bear country community. “When you do a full analysis of what was happening inside that bear, our officers feel good about the decision,” Livingston said. “We didn’t let this bear suffer out there,” he continued. The euthanized bear was well-known in the Telluride area, and had been hazed away from public spaces by wildlife enforcement before. The same bear was suspected to be involved in a home entry earlier this summer, according to the press release.

    ‘Bears can smell things up to five miles away’ — However, if bears are frequently being seen in proximity to homes, it is cause for concern. “If the bears are around your residential area all the time, somebody doesn’t know what to do,” Livingston said. “Because if that bear is not getting a food reward, it will move on and go back up into the mountains,” he continued. “It only takes one person that’s, you know, leaving unsecure food to attract them out.”

    Bears are smart animals with a good sense of memory, allowing them to remember where they found and referencing it as a place to return to, according to the wildlife spokesperson. “Bears have an incredible sense of smell, and can smell things up to five miles away,” Livingston told CNN. “If it smells a trash food source that’s left out, there’s a good chance that, in our Colorado mountain towns, there’s a bear within five miles that can smell that.”

    Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials issued a statement providing ways for residents and hikers to “bearproof” their homes and lives, warning “only people (like you) can prevent problems with bears.” “There’s been a large push over the last decade to get more residents in mountain communities to buy bear proof trash cans,” the wildlife spokesman said.

    Livingston also suggests placing garbage cans out on trash day, instead of letting it sit, not keeping doors and windows open overnight, and not putting bird feeders in trees. “It really takes everybody doing their part, whether they’re a visitor to Colorado, or us who live here full time. It takes everybody to do their part to secure that trash so bears aren’t getting into it.”

  13. “Jack Smith’s Real-Life Bogeyman—From claiming Donald Trump is a flight risk to warning that his social media posts imperil the lives of government officials, Smith appears more unhinged than normal.”
    JULIE KELLY
    SEP 18, 2023

    (Artwork by Ruben Cueto)

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “One must wonder if Special Counsel Jack Smith checks under his bed every night to make sure a large man wearing an oversized blue suit, long red tie, and MAGA hat isn’t there. Smith, the public has been assured, is a nerves-of-steel prosecutor who has taken on some of the world’s most dangerous criminals during his time at the U.S. Department of Justice and The Hague. Following Smith’s appointment in November 2022, one former colleague swooned to the New York Times how Smith “has a way about him of projecting calm” and that “people look to him for steady guidance.”

    But his recent conduct suggests Smith might be losing his grip. Tasked with supervising both criminal investigations into Donald Trump—the events of January 6 and possession of alleged classified material—Smith continues to make outlandish allegations about the former president in court motions. These claims include warnings that Trump is a flight risk, is jeopardizing the safety of government officials and poisoning the D.C. jury pool with his social media posts, and “could precipitate violence” if sealed search warrants were disclosed to him.

    Smith’s reality-detached assessment of Trump first is evident in his June 2023 indictment against Trump for the alleged unlawful retention of national defense information. Using the most hyperbolic language possible to describe the 300 or so files with “classified markings” found in storage boxes at Mar-a-Lago—most were handed over by Trump himself—Smith claimed that the “unauthorized disclosure of these classified documents could put at risk the national security of the United States, foreign relations, the safety of the United States military, and human sources and the continued viability of sensitive intelligence collection methods.” (The seizure of those alleged documents happened more than a year after Trump had left office, plenty of time to have jeopardized national security if he wanted to.)

    Smith did no better in his follow-up indictment charging Trump with four counts related to January 6. “The attack on our nation’s capital on January 6, 2021 was an unprecedented assault on the seat of American democracy,” Smith said during a brief public statement on August 1. “It was fueled by lies. Lies by the defendant targeted at obstructing a bedrock function of the U.S. government, the nation’s process of collecting, counting, and certifying the results of the presidential election.” Smith then went on a weird riff about how law enforcement saved the nation that day.

    Flight Risks, Riots, and Mean Nicknames — What the public did not know at the time was Smith had just won a court battle against Twitter seeking all data from the former president’s dormant account. Smith not only asked a D.C. judge to authorize a search warrant for the account’s information, including direct messages and deleted posts, but sought to conceal the warrant from Trump in a nondisclosure order.

    In doing so, Smith told the court that Trump might flee the country if he was informed about the Twitter warrant—a claim he later stated was made in “error.” But it wasn’t a mistake. The flight risk concern was discussed several times during a sealed hearing in February between Judge Beryl Howell and both parties, as I reported here. At one point, Howell seemed to concur with Smith, noting that Trump “does have properties overseas that would be probative.” (There is a discrepancy as to when the flight risk claim was made but the public may never know since the final non-disclosure order remains under seal as does most of the case. Howell signed the NDO and fined Twitter $350,000 for allegedly delaying production of the records.)

    After ditching the flight risk claim, Smith’s team took it up a notch. If Trump found out about the warrant, he might cause riots in the streets. “Following his defeat in the 2020 presidential election, the former President propagated false claims of fraud, pressured state and federal officials to violate their legal duties, and retaliated against those who did not comply with his demands, culminating in violence at the U.S. Capitol on January 6 (emphasis added),” Smith argued in response to Twitter’s appeal of the NDO. Trump’s knowledge of the warrant, Smith continued, “could precipitate violence as occurred following the public disclosure of the search warrant executed at Mar-a-Lago.”

    Smith appeared to be referring to an armed man attempting to force his way into an FBI office in Cincinnati a few days after the FBI raided Trump’s property. He was shot and killed by police. So, to recap Smith’s thinking: Trump is to blame for the violence that occurred on January 6 even though security and intelligence failures are well-documented and it’s not the president’s job to protect U.S. Capitol grounds and because a single crazy person tried to shoot up an FBI office in Ohio after the Mar-a-Lago raid—Trump would incite more violence after learning of a search warrant on his Twitter account?

    A preposterous, desperate, and wholly dishonest argument. But Smith really jumped the shark last week in a 19-page motion seeking a gag order on the leading GOP presidential contender. Citing numerous Truth Social posts, Smith accused Trump of attempting to poison the jury pool and intimidate potential witnesses in the January 6 case. From the motion:

    Not only is Smith apparently unaware that most Americans have no confidence in the Department of Justice but the notion that Trump could in any way influence prospective jurors in a near-100 percent Democratic city by commenting on a social media platform few D.C. residents probably use is laughable.

    Smith then accused Trump of posting “false and disparaging claims about the Department of Justice and prosecutors in the Special Counsel’s office in an attempt to undermine confidence in the justice system. [The] defendant called the Special Counsel’s Office a ‘team of thugs.’” Smith insisted he has been “subject to multiple threats” and one of his top prosecutors received “intimidating communications.” Thin-skinned much?

    Smith Seeks to Strip Trump of Key Campaign Theme — Smith asked Judge Tanya Chutkan, who has a history of making anti-Trump comments in court, to prohibit Trump from making statements “regarding the identity, testimony, or credibility of prospective witnesses,” and “statements about any party, witness, attorney, court personnel, or potential jurors that are disparaging and inflammatory, or intimidating.” (Trump filed a motion earlier this month asking Chutkan to recuse based on “disqualifying” remarks about the former president, as I reported here.)

    Despite Smith’s description of the gag order as “narrow,” it is anything but. If Chutkan grants Smith’s proposal, Trump would be prevented from saying anything critical of the DOJ, FBI, federal judges, and D.C. juries. Trump couldn’t opine on government officials including Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray, a key talking point on the campaign stump. Smith also wants to ban Trump from commenting on “potential witnesses,” which includes GOP rival Mike Pence. A “potential witness” could be whomever Jack Smith wants it to be in such a sweeping case.

    This is a brazen act of election interference since DOJ corruption and the dual system of justice in the nation’s capital are a few of Trump’s top campaign issues. Ironically, by seeking the gag order, Smith is responsible for amplifying these critical comments in the broader blogosphere outside of Truth Social. Should Chutkan put a gag order on Smith? While Chutkan weighs two speech issues—presumably defending her right to speak her partisan mind during unrelated court proceedings while agreeing at the same time that Trump should keep his mouth zipped—Smith no doubt is working on the next chapter in his Scary Donald Trump files.

    Perhaps someone should volunteer to check under Smith’s bed every night.”

    Florida’s Forced Quarantine and Forced Vaccination Law
    https://josephsansone.substack.com/p/floridas-forced-quarantine-and-forced

    I’ll admit I was unaware of this law till Mary Helms, the Republican Liberty Caucus Chair for Franklin County Florida brought this to my attention. Mary’s husband John Helms got the Ban the Jab resolution passed in the Franklin County GOP recently.

    This updated law was passed in 2023. It is Florida Statute, Title XXIX, Chapter 381, specifically Section 00315. It appears a total disaster. According to this law, Floridians can be forced isolated and quarantined against their will, and any treatment, not just vaccines, can be forced on them. The language was changed from prior versions from ‘vaccine’ to ‘any means necessary to treat the individual’. Robert Valenta pointed out to me that was likely changed because it is becoming apparent that C19 injections are not ‘vaccines’.

    It becomes difficult to argue the Tenth Amendment when the state legislature cedes their sovereignty to the federal government. In this interview I did a while back with James Roguski, where James and I were interviewing each other, James expressed the view that the WHO is planning on using the federal government, and then the federal government will use the states, to implement WHO’s mandatory policies. This Florida law seems to coincide with Roguski’s revelation.
    There was a blanket health protection law called SB222 that got derailed earlier this year in favor of SB 252, which appears to offer no protections at all in this area. SB 252 does not nullify Florida Statute, Title XXIX, Chapter 381, Section 00315. In fact, it leaves a door open for WHO to dictate policies if the state mandates it. As far as I can tell, the state of Florida has to obey the federal government and must follow and integrate with federal plans because of F.S. 381, Section 00315.

    It looks like there is deliberate intent.

    How else could we explain such a law that leaves a path open for the federal government and the WHO to clamp down on Floridians?
