Today over 100 former Republican officials have written a public statement endorsing Kamala Harris for president.

This is no longer a political alignment between the left and right.

These people have just admitted their fealty to the corporate establishment.

Battle lines are now drawn between Establishment totalitarians whose only concern is power and money, and Populist candidates of the American people whose concern is for the health and welfare of the people.

Choose wisely.

They have just admitted to what so many have said for so long: we have one party in this country and they are conspiring with the globalists for a one world goverment.

Another nail in the coffin, hardly the first.

Whatever the Dems have devolved into is no different than the previous Pubs.

The Peaceniks have become the party of war, censorship, and fascism.

DJT always knew this and is not guilty by association. RFK and T Gabbard know this, as does

E Musk and countless others. Shed light Beacon.

Absolutely right. The Democrats are trying to foment WWIII. No doubt about it. Probably to cover their tracks from decades of Clinton-Obama-Biden-Harris grift.

Here's my latest.

Sorry but I don't hear any top Republican leadership speaking out against this Ukraine/Russia set up. We don't call it the "Uniparty" for nothing!

I’m not really sure but I think I hear an ache in your speaking of the democrat party. Fond memories maybe? Will you ever go back to the democrat party? I’ve never deeply aligned myself with the Republican Party even though I’ve been a registered Republican all my life. There have only been two people in my voting life that I would have died before voting for anyone else and that’s Reagan and Trump. I sense that some disenchanted Democrats are different and that the party has more importance to them than with Republicans. Am I right or wrong? Why am I even thinking about such things? If Donald Trump wasn’t running in this election I’m pretty sure I would be voting for Robert Kennedy Jr in this election. I don’t know that I could cast a vote for him as much as I like what he stands for if he was running as a democrat. After all of the horrific things I’ve watched democrats do and say I have that much distaste for just the word democrat

And what is so pathetic for those that scream of Trump's past affairs and stuff, when you utter the word Bill Clinton and what he did before the WH and while in the WH, they run around like preschoolers with their fingers in their ears screaming "no, no, no!"

Here's a version to share with knee-jerk dems who are allergic to anything tainted by Kennedy or Trump.

The Democratic Party has Become the Party of WAR

Buried below news of the second assassination attempt of former President Trump, the latest election headlines, and more post-debate coverage, is the quiet truth that the Democratic Party has transformed from a party of peace to a party of war.

In the 1960s and 70s, it was Democrats, for the most part, who took to the streets to burn their draft cards and protest U.S. engagement in the Vietnam War. More recently, many resisted our nation’s disastrous wars in the Middle East, spurred on by the neocon military industrial complex, championed by former vice president Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, and Robert Kagan.

Democrats rightfully blamed these men for the deaths of thousands of Americans in the never-ending wars on terror in Afghanistan and Iraq. We blamed them for the needless slaughter of hundreds of thousands of civilians. We blamed them for destabilizing the Middle East and for the anti-American hatred that now burns in the hearts of so many in the Arab world.

But the war machine is at it again and Democrats in powerful positions have not, for the most part, distinguished their policies from that of Republicans, even as young people across America protested against the slaughter of innocent people in Gaza.

As we continue to arm Ukraine and fail in finding solutions in Gaza, the ongoing partnership between the neocons and the military industrial complex should be a source of national shame. Instead, powerful Democrats are part of an enduring cabal that exerts massive influence on our nation’s foreign policy.

The reason for their staying power is simple: There is too much money flowing in and out of the war machine. War is good for the bottom line of those entrenched in the web of the military industrial complex.

But what happened to the party that wanted to end all wars?

That question lingers following Cheney’s endorsement of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris – and the “honor” she expressed upon receiving such an endorsement. What does this mean for the Democratic Party? Why aren’t more people, and the media, writing and thinking about it?

By accepting Cheney’s endorsement, the party that was once the party of peace has mixed its DNA with the neocons, completing a metamorphosis into the party of war. The once proud party of peace has been bought off by those who profit from war.

"Endorsements" are meaningless to me. One sleazy public figure endorsing another sleazy public figure isn't even worth discussion!

First and foremost, the democrats and military industrial complex, are slowly but surely running out of the “money-flow” they do much embrace!! They have stolen so much money and empowered themselves as the uniparty elites..their money-times is over.. why?? I’m not a math authority, but when you don’t “service” your debt-bills, and have borrow a $TRLLION DOLLARS, every 100 days to BS your way around town and the world.. don’t know about you, you’re going to have to declare “bankruptcy”!! Government will have to shutdown!?!? I think everybody understands or knows about one of their strategies..”digital dollars” Biden-Kamala-bucks!! They’re coming for everyone’s money!! That’s why, the big Corporate-Elites, Walmarts, Bezos, Gates, Buffet’s, are all withdraws theirs shares to cash to gold, Swedish-Francs..crypto, whatever! The only ones left to pick up bill are American Taxpayers?? Cheney’s and the war-party day’s are coming to rekon for their crimes!

Your analysis suffers from two fatal flaws.

Donald Trump is dishonorable.

Donald Trump is a puppet on a string.

And it is all but inconceivable to me that, given his admirable understanding of deep systems, Bobby yet trusts all that he cherishes to the care of the powers that have devastated his family and the greater human family.

48 DAYS TILL ELECTION DAY!

Dear Mr. Kennedy,

Today is the harvest moon! It is the perfect day for you to wake up and gather the bushels of wisdom you have cultivated over the last six seasons, separate yourself from Donald Trump, and publicly become the man you were born to be.

Today is the day for you to finally wake up and realize that you are a good man in a bad and dishonest field. Step forward today, while you still can, and let the rotten ones behind you fall and reap their tangled, bitter harvests. Exit your toxic intellectual bubble and return home to your heart's farmstead, back here on earth where your Gentle Army Of Still Loyal Volunteers live. Allow yourself to emerge from your dark, restless night and bask in the bright sunlight of this day of days and seize it! This powerful day is busy loving you and showering you with the mighty joy your glorious seeds of hope have brought forth. Will you see this sun? Will you honor your bountiful harvest? God, I hope so!

Sincerely,

John Martine

A Still Loyal Volunteer

Florence, Mass.

Thank you Bobby Kennedy Jr. for standing with the many 100s of 1000s of families of Children's Health Defense with your life & resource. I'm familiar now 40 years from my own work as a Specialized Educator, with your research work on the high rate of Vaccine Adverse Events & death. I interviewed some 30 families of members with Autism, to find out that all were born as bright interactive children, till the shots were imposed. Thank you for the sharing your deep experience knowledge of the US fake 'political' (L. 'poly' = 'many' + 'tics' = 'workings-of') system to inform us all.

Mayer Amschel Rothschild is attributed to have said, "Let me issue and control a nation’s money and I care not who writes the laws". No matter who made this statement, it is, important advice to us all.

FOLLOW THE MONEY. Who owns Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Robert Kagan etc. as well as Democratic & much of Republican Parties? Why did Netanyahu get 50 standing ovations in 50 minutes from Congressional Seals? Every-time the clapping Congress Seals have given Netanyahu ovations over the past 20 years is a big reveal about who owns us through our fake 'economy' (Gk 'oikos' = 'home' + 'namein' = 'care-&-nurture') Why does Thomas Massie Republican Representative report to us that; all Congress people have AIPAC Babysitters?

TOP-DOWN Minority, undeclared triangulated OLIGARCH share-holders of the US-Federal-Reserve, Bank-of-England/City-of-London, Bank-of-International-Settlements control the minting & issue of fake western colonial Empire 'money' (Greek 'mnemosis' = 'memory'). This same lineage has controlled the issue of fake (fiat) money as forgivable loans to their friends, family & colleagues trickling down to the rest of us, since successively exhausting & destroying once lush 3-D POLYCULTURE ORCHARDS down through 2-D 'agriculture' (L. 'ager' = 'field') to desert. As we take our commands from this fake money, we stop listening to each other & the nature, which each of us represents. "We are the voice of the earth speaking", Indigenous saying. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/b-ecological-design/1-indigenous-welcome-orchard-food-production-efficiencies

Once lush 'indigenous' (Latin 'self-generating'): Babylon-Mesopotamia (5000 BC), Assyria, Phoenician Empire (commanded by the Kingdom of Israel & City-States of Tyr, Byblos, Sidon & Beirut from 4000-0 BC), Egypt, Greece, Carthage, Rome, Spain, Portugal, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Britain, USA-Canada all contained vast flowing rivers, lakes streams, abundant food & wildlife.

Why does Bobby, RFK Jr. not speak about the NAKBA with violent Ashkenazi (some of my family in 3 branches) Irgun, Lehi, Stern-gang, Hagenah, Mossad gangs, killing 10s of 1000s, expelling 750,000 Palestinians (genocide), destroying homes, businesses, cutting down many 100s of 1000s of Palestinian Polyculture Orchard trees, poisoning water wells, stealing homes etc.

GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION: The United Nations extensive 'Out-of-Africa' studies have determined that some 6 billion people have ancestry who have passed through Palestine as the LAND-BRIDGE between Eurasia & Africa, probably least of all European Ashkenazi. For many 10s of 1000s of years the holiness of Palestine was in its stewardship, welcome & economic inclusion of the stranger, traveler, trader & refugee. Palestinians (True 'Semites') are one of the most genetically diverse people on the planet because of this constant welcoming absorption of new people. Miko Peled son of Matti Peled the Israeli general is a good source on Palestinian welcome of the Ashkenazi when they first arrived, until Ashkenazi nefarious aggression, became widely demonstrated.

7000 years ago in Babylon-Mesopotamia, an Oligarchy violently appropriated the issue of what had previously been all humanity's 'indigenous' worldwide time-based equivalency Bottom-up accounting upon the World's String-shell Value System (eg. Wampum on Turtle-Island (North America), Quipu in S. America & Cowrie in indigenous Celtic-Slavic Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia & all islands). String-shell formed true 'MONEY' (Greek 'mnemosis' = 'memory') for all contributions, experience, expertise & decision-making acumen held by each person & Production-Society-Guild. Multistakeholder 'Participatory' (L. 'part' = 'share') investment by Founders, Workers, Managers, Suppliers, Townspeople etc enabled distributed department, workshop & division control of companies from the bottom up by people with invested interest in their 'company' (L. 'com' = 'together' + 'pan' = 'bread'). Distributed invested stakeholders creates a Collective-Intelligence by all & excellent engineering, design, productivity & environmental performance. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/c-relational-economy/2-participatory-accounting

Oligarchs issued mine-extracted minted metal coins to represent the String-shell issued under their Top-down centralized 'exogenous' (L. 'other-generated') military control. All Humanity's Indigenous ancestral society & economy, once mimicked the body AUTONOMOUS gene, cell, tissue & organ system with each part having neural memory & authority to act. The brain in contrast is but one of the body's neural Nexus, typically learning of happenings in micro-seconds after occurrence by each capable part. The stomach for example has more neurons than the brain, but is connected to the whole through its own digestive Nexus system. Its time for humanity to rebuild its 'indigenous' Economic Memory with bodily autonomy. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/d-participatory-structure/3-economic-memory

The collective Domestic 'economy' (Gk 'oikos' = 'home' + 'namein' = 'care-&-nurture') in the ~100 (50-150) person Multihome-Dwelling-Complex (eg. Longhouse-apartment, Pueblo-townhouse & Kanata-village) formed the core of the livelihood (mostly women) with Commerce & Industry (mostly men) as supportive. 70% of people today live in Multihomes with an average size of 32 dwelling-units = ~100 people, but without our ancient indigenous knowledge about how to collaborate in circular economy. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/c-relational-economy/1-extending-our-welcome-participatory-multihome-cohousing

Negotiate with Moscow to end the Ukraine war and prevent nuclear devastation

9/17/2024

Negotiate with Moscow to end the Ukraine war and prevent nuclear devastation

by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump Jr., opinion contributors

The New York Times reported Thursday that the Biden administration is considering allowing Ukraine to use NATO-provided long-range precision weapons against targets deep inside Russia. Such a decision would put the world at greater risk of nuclear conflagration than at any time since the Cuban missile crisis.

At a time when American leaders should be focused on finding a diplomatic off-ramp to a war that should never have been allowed to take place, the Biden-Harris administration is instead pursuing a policy that Russia says it will interpret as an act of war. In the words of Vladimir Putin, long-range strikes in Russia “will mean that NATO countries — the United States and European countries — are at war with Russia.”

Some American analysts believe Putin is bluffing, and favor calling his bluff. As the Times reported, “‘Easing the restrictions on Western weapons will not cause Moscow to escalate,’17 former ambassadors and generals wrote in a letter to the administration this week. ‘We know this because Ukraine is already striking territory Russia considers its own — including Crimea and Kursk — with these weapons and Moscow’s response remains unchanged.’”

These analysts are mistaking restraint for weakness. In essence, they are advocating a strategy of brinksmanship. Each escalation — from HIMARS to cluster munitions to Abrams tanks to F-16s to ATACMS — draws the world closer to the brink of Armageddon. Their logic seems to be that if you goad a bear five times and it doesn’t respond, it is safe to goad him even harder a sixth time.

Such a strategy might be reasonable if the bear had no teeth. The hawks in the Biden administration seem to have forgotten that Russia is a nuclear power. They have forgotten the wisdom of John F. Kennedy, who said in 1963, “Nuclear powers must avert those confrontations which bring an adversary to a choice of either a humiliating retreat or a nuclear war.”

We should take this advice seriously. Putin has signaled numerous times that Russia would use nuclear weapons in extreme circumstances. In September 2022, Putin said, “If the territorial integrity of our country is threatened, we will without doubt use all available means to protect Russia and our people — this is not a bluff.” In March 2023, he struck a deal with Belarus to station tactical nuclear weapons there. Earlier this month, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov announced that Russia would be amending its nuclear doctrine in response to Western involvement in the Ukraine war.

Imagine if Russia were providing another country with missiles, training and targeting information to strike deep into American territory. The U.S. would never tolerate it. We shouldn’t expect Russia to tolerate it either.

This game of nuclear “chicken” has gone far enough. There is no remaining step between firing U.S. missiles deep into Russian territory and a nuclear exchange. We cannot get any closer to the brink than this.

And for what? To “weaken Russia”? To control Ukraine’s minerals? No vital American interest is at stake. To risk nuclear conflict for the sake of the neoconservative fantasy of global “full-spectrum dominance” is madness.

The war fever in the U.S. foreign policy establishment is at such a pitch that it is hard to tell whether they believe their own rhetoric. In last Tuesday’s debate, Vice President Kamala Harris conjured up images of Russian forces rolling across Europe. Surely she must know how absurd that is. For one thing, Russia can barely wrest a few provinces from Ukraine, which is by no means one of Europe’s great powers.

Secondly, Russia made its war aims very clear at the outset — most notably Ukrainian neutrality and a halt to NATO’s eastward expansion. Hundreds of thousands of lost lives, and hundreds of billions of dollars later, no one is better off — not Europe, not America and certainly not Ukraine.

It is past time to de-escalate this conflict. This is more important than any of the political issues our nation argues about. Nuclear war would mean the end of civilization as we know it, maybe even the end of the human species.

Former President Donald Trump has vowed to end this war, but by the time he takes office, it might be too late. We need to demand, right now, that Harris and President Biden reverse their insane war agenda and open direct negotiations with Moscow.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is an environmental lawyer and public health advocate. Donald Trump Jr. is executive vice president of the Trump Organization.
