Well, yes, still here, my absence had to do with me getting taken to an emergency room and being hospitalized for a good portion of August. Home now and doing alright, still recovering but I'm going to be fine. Stange circumstances for me and at the same time, some really strange events taking place in our world. In fact, as I was lying in a hospital bed with mostly CNN on the giant TV that was in the room, as I drifted in and out of sleep I had some hallucinatory moments. This included an incident while being laid up of hearing an announcement that Donald Trump was dead as I was sort of half asleep and then waking up wondering if that was real. Of course, it had to do with some odd 5 day period where Trump disappeared from media view, went radio silent, and people seemed to suspect they were hiding him due to some sort of health catastrophe. In the same timeframe Vance makes a weird announcement that he is ready to take over as president if something does go horribly wrong with Trump. As if promoting the idea that something is wrong with Trump, which there probably is but odd to have J.D. promote it that way. 

Then there was some high weirdness with Trump renaming the Department of Defense the Department of War, a sort of epic warning sign, but then he does something no American president has ever done, he tells Chicago and Illinois that they are going to find out why he has named it the Department of War. Wow, an American president declaring war on a great American city and state. If that was not a giant WTF moment for most people, I don't know what would be. As the song says, "We got trouble!"

OK, but it gets even worse because this "war" thing is and has been a focus for Trump, that if there is "war" in the United States Trump could then use his presidential powers to suspend elections. A big shot Republican lawyer named Cleta Mitchell then comes out and says she believes that Trump will do exactly that. Mitchell is known for being someone that Republicans listen intently to and she was also part of trying to help Trump overturn the 2020 election. 

So, we have Trump declaring war on Chicago, and Mitchell saying that she believes Trump can suspend elections if we have a circumstance where there is war in the United States. Now, Trump and his administration did attempt to claim that Venezuela had declared war on us and were sending gang members here to conduct that war on our soil. Hence giving ICE the ability to just arrest anybody and deport them with no due process because we were in a state of war...something the courts disagreed with but continues. 

Now we get the assassination of Charlie Kirk and what do Trump, his minions, and a whole bunch of Right Wing media nuts begin shouting at the top of their lungs...THIS IS WAR!

Of course, before the public knows anything about the shooter Trump and Nancy Mace and a bunch of other clowns all begin to blame the killing on Democrats and calls go up to round up liberals and Democrats and get rid of them.

Charlie Kirk was a provocateur, a man that intentionally stirred the pot and tried to upset people. He put himself on the playing field and not in a small way. Kirk had many enemies both foreign and domestic and more than likely the ones that might have reason and a purpose to kill him were not liberals or Democrats. If a "liberal or Democrat" killed Kirk, they would just be making a martyr out of him and would benefit Trump and the MAGA movement. That would not help them in any way. It would, and Trump and Mace have tried to use the killing as such, create a huge emotional cascade of support for Kirk and Trump. It would be a disaster for Democrats. This is exactly how Trump and his followers want to play it. 

Kirk had shifted into some opinions and thoughts that Trump and supporters of Israel did not like. In fact, Trump had called Kirk to personally ask him to stop asking for the truth about Jeffrey Epstein to come out just a few weeks ago. Kirk was getting harassed by supporters of Israel about things he was saying about that situation and had expressed his belief that the Israelis could have him killed. 

A very strange fact about the Kirk shooting is that most reports have Kirk getting shot at 12:20 in the afternoon. Some say the shooting occurred between 12:13 and 12:20. Then at 12:21pm Netanyahu, yes Bibi himself, posts on X his condolences on Kirk's death and may he rest in peace. Netanyahu also reveals in that message he personally spoke to Kirk two weeks ago. Problem here is Kirk was not yet pronounced dead, was taken to the hospital and pronounced dead at around 3:40pm, hours after Bibi had posted his message announcing his feelings on Kirk's death. 

OK, you can tell me I am going down a rabbit hole here, but how did Bibi know Kirk was dead literally seconds after the shooting. You can say he just assumed it but the reports that were out were just that Kirk had been shot and nobody said anything about him being dead nor was that suspected at first. Yet Bibi himself writes on X right after Kirk was shot, potentially 1 minute after he was shot "RIP Charlie Kirk."

Seems literally impossible that sitting at night in Israel Bibi would know Kirk was dead sixty seconds after he was shot.  

One last piece of suspicious info. The shooter appears to have walked away easily and escaped. It seems unlikely the shooter was a student at the university because with the photos and video of the person, if they were a student someone would have already identified the person. So, this person walked onto the campus, knew where to go, where Kirk would be positioned, knew how to quickly enter and get out without detection, makes a pretty good shot, only firing one round, and kills Kirk. At the same time there was a private jet sitting on the tarmac at the nearby airport ready to go and the jet does take off shortly after 1pm. It heads south toward Arizona, where it promptly disappears off radar screens and no contact is had with it. Strangely around 30 minutes after it vanished, the jet reappears on radar screens heading back to the Utah airport where it took off from. Just some odd info. Maybe the FBI should look at that. 

What has come out of the Kirk shooting? What is being delivered? Calls for war in the United States and wacko statements from the media, politicians, and Trump himself. War in the US is the justification Trump and his crew have been looking for to suspend elections. People in the Right Wing media, people like Mace, and Trump himself seem to be stirring the pot for violence to break out. Pushing for "war" in Chicago. 

We need cooler heads to prevail and to be very cautious in what could be a very dangerous moment. A dangerous moment that may have been manufactured for a very specific purpose.
