Maui Fire Survivors – Must See, Dramatic Video Footage

A lot of reports and video footage is now coming out from survivors of the Maui fire earlier this month.

Many survivors are claiming that the police prevented people from escaping, with some claiming that they only survived because they did NOT obey police orders, while others did, and died.

This was a very emotional video for me to put together. I am not going to offer any commentary, but let the video speak for itself.

WARNING: Graphic images of people dying and a lot of profanity throughout.

This on our Bitchute channel, and will also be on our Telegram channel. It is only 17 minutes long.

Note by the Author: I apologize that there are a few seconds of black screen that I did not catch in the final edit.

Cultural/Ideological Divide

Cardinal Virtues vs Democracy

Leave a comment

The problem is NOT any one system of government—but the lack of Virtue (arete – excellence, moral virtue in ancient Greek).  The Ancients understood this.

The Greeks had the concepts of Manliness, Righteousness, Sophrosyne (ancient Greek concept of an ideal of excellence of character and soundness of mind, which when combined in one well-balanced individual leads to other qualities, such as temperance, moderation, prudence, purity, decorum, and self-control – Wikipedia), Phronesis (wisdom in determining ends and the means of attaining them, practical understanding, sound judgment, from Greek phrónēsis, meaning “practical wisdom, prudence in government and public affairs” in Plato, Aristotle, and other heavy hitters – Wikipedia). 

Lycurgus commanded Virtue for the Spartan Republic.

Remember, Virtus Romana ! — And the mythical Mucius Scaevola, from school?

The writer of II Peter 1:5 “Supplement the Faith with Virtue”. — No church, Catholic, Orthodox or Protestant, has ever complied with that verse. 

Virtue is the antidote to the effects of the original sin. Virtue is character training and morality. It is what makes a person good. People have to be trained to be good. There is no training in The Good in America! 

That is the problem, not the systems of government.  Besides that, a democracy is inherently based on the lowest common denominator and is flawed from the get-go. 

Peasants could obviously complain when they didn’t like something, and they could protest, (sometimes at the cost of their lives) and they could send representatives to speak to the Lord or the King about their grievances. But for the most part, peasants had little interest in the workings of Government.
It was a scam to bring all of these peasants into the public process of government. That’s what “democracy” is. And once you’ve brought them in, you can’t expect them to understand the higher social order and concepts of philosophy, personal morality and virtue because they are not educated, and primarily think about sex, food, and entertainment. 

Now it is even worse, as we have the champions of capitalism (see Bill Gates, Rockefeller, Soros or Musk) who claim their leadership authority emanating from the sum of their bank accounts. No established record of virtue in the service of their society. Greed and Vanity are their only coordinates.
The End is Here

Military Affairs

War Stories about Betrayal, Insubordination and Punishment

Leave a comment

For those following the Ukraine events since 2014 and the disappearance of such bold Russian nationalist commanders as Motorola, Givi, Zakharchenko, and even the exclusion of Pavel Gubarev, founder of the Donbass Militia, in favor of the appointed bureaucrat Pushilin — it is an epic story of betrayal, insubordination and punishment. Igor Strelkov, the unofficial leader of the nationalist group, is in jail while Gen. Sergei Surovikin, head of the aerospace forces and commander of the Russian forces in Ukraine, is dismissed without information about his whereabouts. And now Prigozhin. 

First, we hear Kadyrov (below) implying that Prigozhin’s  tragic fate was caused by his acting in a rebellious way in a complex situation. The military top brass, Shoigu and Gerasimov, as corrupt and incompetent as they were/are, were political appointees selected as part of the fine act of balancing any centrifugal forces in the multiethnic Russia. Prigozhin wanted to take them to the woodshed and give them a good thrashing. But that was not possible, politically, as they were part of the  circle of Putin’s political allies.

The next video below confirms the context in which Prigozhin openly defied the Kremlin big wigs, which went way beyond any mere “mischief” and implied an outright attack on the authority and the decisions of the Russian government. That was certainly not acceptable.


Ramzan Kadyrov’s message about Yevgeny Prigozhin

We were friends for a long time.

With Yevgeny Viktorovich, we often had to solve the most difficult issues. He was distinguished from others by responsiveness, unique sociability and perseverance. He came to Grozny at my very first invitation, although he was older than me. You could discuss any topic and problem with him. He was always ready to help and really helped from the bottom of his heart. We also assisted him in some issues on Libya and Africa. We had a lot in common. On one of his visits, he presented me with a Wagner gold medal “For Special Merits.” You can see this moment in the photo.

Yevgeny Viktorovich was very active for his age, he was an important person on a national scale. But recently he either did not see or did not want to see the full picture of what is happening in the country. I asked him to leave personal ambitions for the sake of matters of paramount national importance. Everything else could be decided later. But he was like that, Prigozhin, with his iron character and desire to achieve his goal right here and now.

Undoubtedly, he made a great contribution to the SMO. And this merit cannot be taken away from him. His death is a great loss for the entire state.

I offer my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Yevgeny Viktorovich.

Not A Great Day For Liberal Woke “Marxists”

This was the remark from Lucas when we at HQ were viewing the following.

And this beauty…

Then this…

While on the topic of imbeciles, morons, and clowns, there’s also this:

The mine is so important for Warsaw that it has in effect been paying the EU to keep it open. Poland defied the court’s 2021 interim order for it to stop mining and refused to pay the resulting daily fine of €500,000. In response, the European Commission began deducting the fine from EU funds earmarked for Poland — withholding €68mn in total — while Poland separately paid €45mn to the Czech Republic in compensation for environmental damage and to get Prague to drop its lawsuit.
Brussels has also excluded the region around Turów from EU subsidies for places that transition away from fossil fuel production.

It’s almost as if they need coal.
Speaking of which, Turkiye, a country I’ve been telling you is NOT going to go along with the woke ESG shullbit, just tossed the climate alarmists aside like a rag doll.

Jeez! Doesn’t he realise the existential threat to humanity here? Clearly an unhinged extremist. Probably misogynistic, too. Definitely actually, after he arrested all the pink-haired folks who were trying to parade their bits in front of children in Istanbul during pride month.
From the article:

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday dismissed environmental protests over the felling of trees to expand a coal mine in southwest Turkey, saying the campaign was led by “marginals”.

Marginals? So he’s not going to let a few radicals dictate to the majority? Must be undemocratic.

This power plant, which produces almost two-thirds of the electricity consumed in the southern Aegean, contributes around one billion dollars annually to our country’s economy,” Erdogan said in a televised address after the weekly cabinet meeting.

He said the power plant needed to continue production with new coal basins as the existing reserves were close to depletion.

Coal power plants have become once again a major source of energy in European countries after the crisis that broke out with the Russia-Ukraine war,” he said.
“Although some are constantly and persistently trying to re-play the same scenarios with different skins, nobody is deceived by this game anymore,” Erdogan said.

He can’t possibly be referring to the Soros-sponsored “NGOs” that have actively been working throughout Eastern Europe and the Caucasus. Nah, that’s crazy talk.
Actually, on the entire climate change fraud, I found this:

Now, to be clear… before we get any hate mail telling us what a bad man little Erdy is, realise this. They are ALL power hungry psychos. They are simply psychos with differing agendas, and it is our job to arbitrage those agendas for our own prosperity and freedom where possible.

Are We Facing the Day of Reckoning?

1 Comment

Is the Biden administration already preparing the public for the loss of Ukraine? Is the Biden administration changing the focus to the new wave of hysteria about the Covid Hoax as a cover up for the loss of Ukraine? It seems pretty much so. Is the loss of Ukraine a precursor to the dismantling of NATO, or at least its partial dismantling?

This is not about Covid but about the start of the collapse of the US hegemony. It is the introduction of a form of Martial Law and a new regime of authoritarian governance by the defeated elites. Where are we going from here? Nuclear war or regime change in the US?

Strange events are coming. We haven’t seen much, as of yet.

First, YouTube to Censor Content Contradicting WHO Guidelines YouTube has introduced a new “medical misinformation policy” that will censor any medical or health-related content that doesn’t align with claims made by the World Health Organization (WHO). YouTube earlier had a “COVID-19 Misinformation Policy” webpage that stated that the platform doesn’t allow any content that “poses a serious risk of egregious harm” and spreads “medical misinformation” contradicting what the WHO or local health authorities (LHA) say about the COVID-19 pandemic. The webpage now redirects to a “medical misinformation policy” page that expands the censorship rule to “specific health conditions and substances” rather than COVID-19 alone. Content that contradicts guidance on treatments, including promoting “specific harmful substances or practices” not approved by authorities or the WHO as safe and effective, also won’t be allowed on the platform. Claims that vaccines cause chronic side effects “outside of rare side effects” recognized by health authorities would be deemed as “vaccine misinformation” by YouTube.

Second, Biden Admin Preparing to Bring Back Full Covid Restrictions, Rollout to Begin Mid-September – Report. Whistleblowers from the TSA and Border Patrol have raised the alarm to Infowars that the Biden administration is setting the stage for full Covid lockdowns that will begin with incremental restrictions like masking TSA employees in mid-September.

The first source, a high-level TSA official confirmed and known to Infowars, reached out to Infowars and cited a Tuesday meeting in which TSA managers were told new memorandums & policies were being completed that would reimplement masking, starting with TSA & airport employees as early as mid-September.

The TSA official also said next week they will receive new guidelines on how the policy will escalate: by mid-October, mask-wearing will be required by pilots, flight staff, passengers, and airport patrons.

After hearing from the TSA manager, Infowars reached out to our trusted Border Patrol source who is also a manager. This source confirmed the same directives were being given to Border Patrol.

They were told it was not a matter of “if” but “when” official Covid numbers will go back up and they expect by mid-October a return to forced-masking policies that the Biden administration previously only reluctantly ended after massive pressure.

Both whistleblowers were told this rollout will be in tandem with the new Covid “variant” hysteria that the MSM has been reporting on this week.

The Defeat of the West in the Ukrainian Direction Seems Inevitable

1 Comment

Dmitry Medvedev writes:

“The defeat of the West in the Ukrainian direction seems inevitable.

Let their leaders, who have forgotten about their own citizens, continue to shout at each other that they will support Ukraine with weapons and money for as long as necessary. They will train soldiers for the military, rebuild the economy, and maintain sanctions against Russia. However, these efforts won’t help.

For them, it’s a distant war with unfamiliar people dying. While they might not empathize much, the West won’t go beyond their interests. No matter how loudly they protest at summits or the UN, someone else’s war eventually becomes boring and costly.

For us, it’s a tragedy involving our people, an existential conflict for self-preservation. We’re faced with a choice: them or us.

Time will pass. Western leadership will change, elites will tire, and negotiations might be sought. Any counteroffensive will weaken. They’ll mourn their dead and heal their wounds. Yet, we can’t halt until the inherently hostile Ukrainian state is dismantled, destroyed utterly. It must never rise again, even from ashes. This process might take years or decades, but we’re compelled: it’s either dismantle their regime or risk Western aggression against Russia.

Hence, the only solution is to completely control the hostile state’s machinery and secure loyalty for the future. Russia’s control over the former Bandera state is necessary, and is a goal we will achieve.”

“Who is to blame?” Lukashenko to Ukrainian Reporter Diana Panchenko!

1 Comment

In an interview with the Ukrainian reporter Diana Panchenko Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko gave a direct answer to the question of who is to blame for the current situation in the region and in particular events in Ukraine.

LUKASHENKO to Ukrainian reporter:

“Poroshenko had a chance to turn everything around. Zelensky did as well. You are a new man. You had nothing to do with it. Did something happen? Sit down, think about making things better for your state, for your people! Well, why are you fighting this war now?”

“Your counteroffensive cost 45,000 people in dead and maimed. 45,000!.. Your losses are 1 to 8 at the frontline. And [Russia has] 250,000 people in reserve with cutting-edge hardware. You will be crushed… and the Poles rub their hands in glee. Pushed by the Americans, they will cut off the western regions… You have to take your head into your hands and act on the basis of reality. Act in the interests of this huge and beautiful territory.”

Washington Wants to Create Biological Crises When Needed – Moscow

Leave a comment

The US bioweapon warmongering pursued.

The US wants to harness the power of dangerous biological agents and manage artificial epidemics by conducting illegal research in biolabs across the globe, the Russian embassy in Washington has said.

In a statement on Thursday, the embassy recalled that Moscow has repeatedly sounded the alarm about what it called “gross violations by the United States of its obligations” under the Biological Weapons Convention which bans this type of armament, and has been signed by virtually all countries in the world, including Russia and the US.

However, “Washington ignores the claims, justifying itself by some humanitarian component of its programs,” the embassy said, claiming that such excuses have nothing to do with reality.

In a bid to enhance the pathogenic capabilities of infections, the US “brazenly and with complete impunity scatters its illegal laboratories all over the world”under the guise of “epidemiological monitoring,” with many of those facilities located in Russia’s neighborhood, the statement charged.

The task is obvious – to be able to create biological crises when needed. To form artificial centers of infections. In other words, to manage epidemics, putting them at the service of [Washington’s] own interests.

The embassy specifically highlighted American biological activities in Ukraine, where it said Washington “has drawn dozens of country’s state institutions and private companies into its projects,” with civilians and military personnel alike being used as donors of biomaterial and as test subjects.

“There is no doubt that such actions require appropriate legal assessment, including by competent international institutions,” it added.

Russia has repeatedly raised concerns about US biological research, with Moscow’s Defense Ministry suggesting earlier this week that Washington was working with highly contagious and dangerous pathogens to prepare for a potential new pandemic. Last autumn, Russia floated a resolution in the UN calling for a probe into the activities of American laboratories in Ukraine, which was vetoed by the US and its NATO allies Britain and France.

Last March, responding to the accusations of biological weapons development in Ukraine, the White House dismissed Moscow’s claims as “classic Russian propaganda.” However, a few months later, the Pentagon admitted that it had been supporting 46 Ukrainian laboratories, while insisting that all its joint programs “focused on improving public health and agricultural safety.”
