I enjoy old found footage set to random music…

Quixotic feelings here; watching snappy crowds on timeless streets, I lived on, now ragged human debris. Catch glimpses of golden West Coast goddess… now Pelosi-hunched street-hag. I dispise my Silicon Valley peeps; here relaxed, prêt-à-porter smug, nostalgic art night out, as City twitches w/shakes outside their North Beach clubhouse

myWORD by Jonathan…
a topical word-salve for social rashness §ubstack

Third Opium War, rising

What else to call this drug surge of fentanyl + cocaine, but Chemical Ordinance, targeted at our youth, by foreign powers? Imagine, America suffers 30x deaths of 9/11 …just with fentanyl as media normalizes nihilism into background hum: Hustlers now soak this into ALL drugs… overdosing ‘herds’ to death: incentives changed.
Begs to ask, Why does Russia kill drug smugglers? China, too.
Maybe, they learned lessons a five decade War On Drugs hasn’t taught the US?
Bomb them, twice

Start Making Sense: Three months watching Drug Boats exploding, media crying Trumps WAR WAR dangers… as Maduro Cha-Cha's; all smiles, he’s leading bands, glowing speeches, at the buffet, adoring crowds… Zero Security: reporter Nick Shirley brings more muscle to Minnesota. M+Mrs are no Black Bag Kidnapping, but Cartel Hostage Rescue: Deal Was Made. This man was waiting for Gold Watch & Retirement.
Maduro will finger Dems for e-ballot frauds & dirty money receipts.
For America, this may be the single-most important long-lasting cascade effect certain to reshape civic life & politics.

Trump perfect the 2-HR War?
Remember, there is no Slava Raytheon without Blackrock…
Don-rovian ‘Drug Boat’ diplomacy is a dark money squeeze-for-squeals play on Bahama laundromats crying ever louder @ Home Office. Crown established a direct extension of global banks on those minion islands to ‘cleanse’ crime money acquired via drugs, weapons & slavery as the baked-in structural purpose of system, from very beginning. Banking requires dark money: this is called a racket
What of conflicts over+done before an invoice is even filled?

Biden treasonously brought murky shadowmobs by tens of millions into America. Borderless means your Home; without locks, heirlooms & family jewels on display for taking.
Borderless is your Body, Jab’d with toxic industrial sludge after decades of My Body My Choice.
Borderless, your Mind, MK-Ultra’d.
For two decades the Global War On Terror had our local National Guard around-the-world… to Fight Them There - Not Here. Vets rightly feel betrayed & unwilling to yield. America voted en-mass for deports, ICE, National Guard, Army: There is No Way a Judge stops us defending our own Ten Yard Line.

De-Colonize to Libs, so-called Progressives, my old friend Democrats, really just means Bring It Home, Baby!
Put them to work: in fields, kitchens, …brothels.

My once-friends don’t care if man mowing schoolyard is pedo escaped Brazil prisons. Or, truck driver w/ No Name on CA license is illiterate anyway & might as well pilot a cruise missile down freeways & up your rear… um, view.

All-good, as long as your asparagus-tips handled by tiniest fingers & cannabis buds plucked by most-tender hands - smuggled so cheap Coyote almost traded them to organ-running render gangs.

So… NO
You are not hiding Neo-Jews under stairs from Neo-Nazis for Selfies, but are apologists for child-trafficking criminal networks documented with smug selfies. This cannot age well.
Please, tell us again how Dems care about Epstein’s handful of victims.
