I have an interesting question, if I was to have to travel to America and choose not to take a digital device, phone, laptop etc.. would I be flagged or taken aside?

As it is my company now are now talking about providing blank machines with extremely locked down access and no local storage, the same system used when visiting China. Along with a blank phone only containing helpdesk and traveldesk contact information.. #america #border

Unlike the rest of us, the very rich live in their own ecosystems with gated communities, AC, filtered water, the best foods, vaccines and top notch medical care. That’s why they don’t care about the climate, famines, war and the growing number of natural disasters. And they certainly don’t care about the average person.

Continued thread

Trump recently suggested #America sell downgraded #f47’s of “10% lesser” potential to #Canada and #EU, positing “we may no longer be allies in the future”.

Now what (or whom) would possess an “ally” to intentionally degrade a friendly weapons systems in advance of a future attack? Asking for #Ukraine this time.

#America Is Watching the Rise of a #DualState
For most people, the #courts will continue to operate as usual—until they don’t.

On Sept 20, 1938, a man who had witnessed the rise of #fascism packed his suitcases & fled his home in Berlin. He arranged to have smuggled separately a manuscript that he had drafted in secret over the previous 2 yrs. This book was a remarkable one. It clarified what was unfolding in Berlin…, the catalyst for its author’s flight.

Gotta hand it to Putin. He’s done an amazing job using Trump to do more damage to America from the inside in a handful of weeks than all our enemies combined could ever do from the outside.

Trump is the ultimate loser, sucker and stooge and Putin hit a bullseyes when installing him into the WH.

I just learned about “praying towns”, but I am realizing they were never disappeared.

Now we simply call them churches.

A place where they desire to strip you of your identity and force you to be like them in exchange for the promise of community, security, and eternal life.

I have lots of feelings right now but now a whole lotta words to explain it.

A long standing monument to peace, unity and friendship between #Canada and #America has now been attacked by America, and shut down. The library that straddles both countries, a show of trust and respect, has banned Canadians from the US side, destroying the trust and friendship between our two countries
