America* Rudy Guiliani, Bill Barr (whose Father hired Epstein at Dalton's Girl's ) and Pat Cipollone are Opus Dei, meaning "Great Work" a Masonic reference. Trump's Pastor Norman Vincent Peale was a 33rd Degree Master Mason, and the Queen's Brother in Law was the World Freemason Grandmaster until he turned 81, the age Albert Pike died. Knight of Malta and Epstein associate Robert Mercer has used his financial data-driven background to tap into the political data economy by investing in outlets focused on targeted messaging. He has been vocal about his dislike for mainstream media, an opinion he shares with his former political advisor, Steve Bannon. With investments in Breitbart, the production company Glittering Steel, and an election management firm specializing in “psychographic” profiling, the Mercer’s are shaping how information is packaged and what information people receive. Guardian reporter, Carole Cadwalladr describes it as a “multi-million dollar propaganda network…waging war on mainstream media." 33% of the Senate is Roman Catholic, vs 22% of the population. The founders of the CIA, FBI, DC and the designers of the Pentagon were all Catholic, so too Tucker Carlson, Beck, Prager, Hannity, Spicer, O'Reilly, Ingram, Pence, Hawley, Blasio, Manafort, Prince, Devos, Kavanaugh, Barrett, Thomas, Gates, Fauci, Abbott, Manchin, Comey, Rogan, Jones, Dore, Kulinksi, Rubin, Pool, Peterson, Dice, Cernovich, Crowder, Molyneux, Fuentes, Yilanopouse, Rumsfeld, Pompeo, Spencer, Bolton, Abrams, Stone, Desantis, Bezos, Cuomo, Pelosi, Biden, Harris, Maddow, Maher, Colbert, Hayes, Cooper, Toocy, McEnany, Collins, Rubio, Cruz, Gutfeld, Mattis, Richardson, Ryan, Huckabee, Gingrich, Cotton, Sessions, Guiliani, Flynn, Bannon, Barr, Christie, Richardson, Melania, Kelly, Conway, Gionet, Johnson, May, Blair, Thatcher, Trudeau, Merkle, Tusk, Farage, Morgan, Cowell, Ventura, Bolsanaro, Putin, Posobiec, Corbett, Robinson, Woods, Icke, Camp, Duke, Kirk, Watson, Iverson, Ball, House. 7/9 Supreme Court Justices are Roman Catholic Pro life is a foundational Roman tenet. Someone paid over half a billion dollars to install Kavanaugh and Barrett on the Supreme Court. DC was even called Rome on the Potomac, or New Jerusalem when it was founded by Francis Pope. Baron Mayer Amschel Rotschild (1744 -1812), was a court factor to the German Landgraves of Hesse-Kassel in the Free City of Frankfurt, Holy Roman Empire, who established his banking business in the 1760s. Mayer Rotschild sent sons to establish banking operations in London, Paris, Vienna, Frankfurt, and Naples. Wikipedia "The NWO will begin Sept 17th 2001 during Rosh Hashanah Feast of Trumpets, Resurrection of the Dead, the year 6000 of the Great Pyramid Calendar, in order to cleanse the Earth and Humanity in preparation for his Kingdom on Earth" British Israel Foundation memo 1922. Same year Boris Johnson's Great Grandad and Architect of the Armenian genocide Mustafa Ali Kemal sent Trump's Grandad Baron Don Von Drumph to America from Vienna Bavaria, Capital of the Holy Roman Empire. At plus 2 degrees we can't grow grain at scale, 9 billion people will lose 90% of their food supply. The Club of Rome did a study in the 80s predicting plus 5 degrees, and covered it up. Oil giants Shell and BP are planning for global temperatures to rise as much as 5°C by the middle of the century. The level is more than double the upper limit committed to by most countries in the world under the Paris Climate Agreement, which both companies publicly support. Oct 27, 2017 (BP and Shell expecting catastrophic 5°C global warming by 2050) Methane from Beef farming makes up 52% of all greenhouse gases, and is 90% subsidized. Banning Beef subsidies could stall climate change overnight, but guess who runs the Beef Racket... Suffering of the infidel (unbaptised) is considered Holy in Catholicism, just ask Saint Mother Teresa, who denied anesthetic to her patients... "If any one saith that true and natural water is not of necessity for baptism, and on that account wrests to some sort of metaphor those words of Our Lord Jesus Christ. 'Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost...' Let Him Be Anathama." -COUNCIL OF TRENT Sess VII Canon II On Baptism 1545AD Matthew 3:11: “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire.” The fire in this passage refers to the fire or inspiration of the Holy Spirit. "Furthermore we declare we proclaim we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation, that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff" Pope Boniface VIII, "Unam Sanctam" (Rome 1302) "There is no graver offense than heresy... and therefore it must be rooted out with fire and sword" Catholic Encyclopedia volume 14 (1911): 767-768 "A heretic merits the pains of fire... by the Gospel, the canons, civil law and custom, heretics must be burned" American Textbook of Popery p164 (quoting from the directory for the Inquisitors) "The true baptism is not by water but fire." Prophyry of Tyre 300AD "I propose an Aryan Semitic Alliance to create a superior Caucasian race" UK PM Benjamin Disraeli 1890 "Today I declare the Crusades won" General Edmunde Allenby upon capturing Jerusalem 1917 "The New World Order will be ruled from the rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem" Ben Gurion, Israeli PM to the London Scionist Foundation 1945 "But they want nothing but Palestine, because Palestine constitutes the geostrategic center of world control" Dr Nehum Goldmann, 1957, founder of the World Jewish Congress and President of the World Zionist Organization Trump and Hitler literally come from the same town, Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Trotsky, Tito, Franz Ferdinand, Orwell, Freud, Johnson, and Trump all come from Vienna Bavaria capital of the Holy Roman Empire. Pro life is a foundational Roman tenet. Trump used Hitler's book of speeches _My New Order_ verbatim at his rallies. He has friends who greet him with a hail Zeus and click of the heels, his name in Gematria is _Messiah_ Baron is the same word as _Fuhrer_ denoting a Knight of the Holy Roman Empire. Donald (King) John (the Baptist) Trump (G.O.A.T) was born during a Super Wolf Blood Moon 7 days before the Summer solstice under Orion the Mighty Hunter, 700 days before the founding of Israel. He was inaugurated on the Centenary of the Bolshevik revolution and the capture of Jerusalem aged 70yrs 7 months and 7 days, he moved the embassy to Jerusalem on israel's 70th anniversary and lives on the 66th floor of 666ft Trump tower with a giant mural of Zeus on his penthouse ceiling. Seig hail is the Greek salute to Zeus, or the Sun In October the Supreme Court will give States electors rule over their own elections, and have their own electors on standby. They're going to edge democrats out of power altogether, and you can't stop them by playing according to their rules because the system is rigged, it was always rigged, that's why we need to demand Direct Democracy without parties or politicians Representative Democracy hasn't worked in over 50 years because politicians will always come from the monied classes and be beholden to their Corporate Donors, only way we avoid this apocalypse is to stage a Velvet Revolution to install a Scaled Direct Democracy. Citizen Initiated Referendums with thresholds and a Social Contract using Blockchain technology means communities can vote their own policies without parties or politicians. Banning Beef, Oil, and Fishing Subsidies would stall climate change and habitat degradation overnight. Thorium Energy renders their global oil monopoly obsolete. Police can be actively policed by an independent public authority with the power to prosecute bad actors in our own courts. Or we can bend over and accept our Orwellian future

As the son of a Hungarian immigrant who came to America because of russian aggression... nothing has changed in the behavior of russia in Ukraine. I hope the world can rid itself of their behaviour. It will never go away, but the scale of a so called super power behaving the way it it has. I believed we were above it as a planet.

_"I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or my grandchildren's time when the US is a service and information economy, when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries, when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues. When the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgably question those in authority, when clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide almost without noticing back into superstition and darkness."_ _"The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content and the enormously influential media. The thirty second soundbite, now down to ten seconds or less, lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudo science and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance."_ Carl Sagan 1995 Representative Democracy hasn't worked in over 50 years because politicians will always come from the monied classes and be beholden to their Corporate Donors, only way we avoid this apocalypse is to stage a Velvet Revolution to install a Scaled Direct Democracy. Citizen Initiated Referendums with thresholds and a Social Contract using Blockchain technology means communities can vote their own policies without parties or politicians. Banning Beef, Oil, and Fishing Subsidies would stall climate change and habitat degradation overnight. Thorium Energy renders their global oil monopoly obsolete. Police can be actively policed by an independent public authority with the power to prosecute bad actors in our own courts. Or we can bend over and accept our Orwellian future
