I met a magical fairy yesterday who said she would grant me one wish.

I wish to live “forever”, I said.

“Sorry,” said the fairy, “I’m not allowed to grant that particular wish.”

“Fine,” I said, “then I want to die the day after Congress is filled with honest, hard-working, bipartisan men and women who act only in the people's best interests!”

“You crafty bastard,” replied the fairy.

as the old joke went about five hundred lawyers at the bottom of the sea, this would be a good start;


Another blow to Bayer (formerly Monsanto) and a win for us and the environment: it’s been confirmed via Facebook Live, by the founder of Moms Across America’s Zen Honeycutt, that Costco will stop selling RoundUp and glyphosate-based herbicides this Spring! (Hopefully, stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot will be next.)
Moms Across America and other equally huge organizations have had petitions signed by hundreds of thousands (total) to get big brand stores to stop carrying Roundup and now it’s finally happening! And remember, they had already banned eggs that were not cage-free and other dangerous pesticides, so it only seems natural this would be their next move.
To help Lowe’s and Home Depot make the same decision, they may need some help. If you have the time, give them a call and ask them- politely- to stop selling the carcinogenic, endocrine disrupting, and dangerous weedkiller.¹ (Keep in mind, once the big box retailers stop, generally, the smaller sellers do as well.) And at the same time, encourage them to offer other weed killing options. (Or maybe even invest in some!)...........https://www.intellihub.com/costco-is-pulling-roundup-from-the-shelves-and-will-no-longer-sell-the-carcinogen/

if you accept them doing this to someone you don't necessarily approve of and who seemingly has done no wrong, what will you say when they come for you, all in opposition to 'our laws';


The federal government has forcibly seized, shackled, and kept imprisoned an American citizen who has not even been charged with a crime. They have incarcerated the 59-year-old grandmother for over a week and say they will continue to do so for an unquantified period of time into the future.
For several days the government refused to admit it had taken the woman from the St. Louis airport as she was on her way to visit a sick brother.
For 48 hours, authorities refused to allow her to contact her family, and refused to tell anyone, including mainstream news media like the Associated Press, CNN, and Fox News where they were holding her.
Finally, a judge, who perhaps remembered what the United States Constitution requires, partially unsealed the court records, and the government’s official rationale became public: she had been forcibly taken away, shackled, and imprisoned because she was, they said, a “witness.” To a still-unspecified crime.
This violates some of the most fundamental principles on which the United States was founded, and which protect all Americans of every political persuasion, race, religion, and ethnicity.
Our forefathers – and these are the political forefathers of every single American citizen, whether their ancestors are from here or came a few hundred years ago, or whether they were naturalized today – created a nation that was to be based on rule of law and on liberty..........https://israelpalestinenews.org/its-time-to-join-together-to-protect-essential-rights/

its almost as if the nasty terrorists types don't want to be left alone at the party and are asking their date to stay a bit longer, so you might begin to wonder why;


On January 21, a suicide vehicle-borne improvised explosive device exploded at a checkpoint of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in northeastern Syria, when a column of the US-led coalition was passing it.
According to initial reports, 2 US service members were wounded and 5 SDF members were killed in the attack. Later, the US-led coalition commented on this issue by confirming the SVBIED attack but denying casualties among US service members.
This was the second attack, which targeted US personnel in Syria within a week. On January 16, a suicide bombing attack hit a coalition patrol in the center of Manbij. 2 US service members, a US Defense Department civilian employee and a contractor supporting the department were killed in the attack.
ISIS claimed responsibility for both attacks via its news agency Amaq.
The US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have captured the village of Moazah and advanced on ISIS positions in the village of Safaqinah in the Euphrates Valley.  The SDF is currently developing its advance in an attempt to fully eliminate the remaining ISIS-held pocket in the area. Despite thousands of SDF-reported ISIS casualties in the area, this has not been done yet.
Speaking at the inauguration of a new international airport in southern Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel’s air force had “delivered powerful blows to Iranian targets in Syria, after Iran fired a rocket from that area toward” the Golan Heights, which he described as Israeli territory.
Regional political experts, including Israeli ones, point out that Netanyahu is attempting to exploit the “Iranian threat” to gain an upper hand in the upcoming elections to the Israeli Parliament, which are set to take place in April 2019.
Despite this, the increasingly aggressive Israeli rhetoric triggered a reaction in Iran. The country’s air force chief Brigadier General Aziz Nasirzadeh said that the army is ready “to confront the Zionist regime and eliminate it from the Earth” if it is needed............http://thesaker.is/isis-suicide-bomber-hits-us-led-coalition-convoy-in-northeastern-syria/

any time you begin to lapse into thinking that there's any intelligence involved in law enforcement in this land all you need do is read things like the following;


Normandy, MO — Residents in Normandy, Missouri are questioning a new ordinance they are calling ridiculous which requires anyone who wishes to shovel snow for money—to have a permit. To be clear, this is not just for adults running businesses, but as the following case illustrates, it’s being enforced against children trying to earn some extra money.

Charles Shelton and his foster son Keyshawn Anderson learned about the police state bureaucracy the hard was last week when Anderson tried to raise some extra cash by shoveling snow.
Shelton dropped the boy off at his grandma’s home in Pasadena Hills last week to shovel snow and once he started, the police quickly rolled in to check if Anderson had a permit. He did not, so he was shut down.
“I feel like there are other ordinances that are more important that should be addressed verses some young man shoveling snow,” said Shelton.
According to Anderson, he was approached by police twice for shoveling his grandma’s driveway without a permit.

“I felt like that was unfair, I felt like I wasn’t doing anything wrong,” said Anderson..........https://thefreethoughtproject.com/innocent-child-harassed-threatened-by-cops-for-shoveling-snow-without-a-permit/

I here offer that if we harbor notions of some amorphous 'victory' that rests in our ability to sway one another to our personal opinions and world views, we remain clueless as to what's really going on in our midst. The dominant, longstanding template under which we've allowed ourselves to be ruled for so long by the so called, "elites" - the very least among us - is called Divide & Rule. It's been utilized for centuries. Every time we enthusiastically joust in sweaty, angst-ridden thrusts with one another over "who is right," we continue to play into their hands, into this Divide & Rule template we tend to be as oblivious to as a fish is to the water in which it swims. That's what the media is for. To keep us passionately quarreling amongst ourselves, because as long as we do so, we fail utterly to recognize who it is that benefits from the divisiveness nurse between ourselves. Pay attention to how the media is always playing all sides at once, because the-powers-that-be wish for every last one of us to participate in this divisiveness!

And so it is that the final push on the part of officialdom to get us to destroy one another in blistering divisiveness has been launched with full fury, rallying even the newly arising generation to be soldiers in their efforts. And they are doing so! The enemy resides at the very capstone of the global dominion pyramid, watching over us with glee as we fight over our respective vantage points upon this world of endless lies we defend to the end, as though our very lives depended on it. As long as we continue to do so, we nurse an enemy WITHIN ourselves. The sociopathic "elites" we still somehow, miraculously, perplexingly, manage to refer to as "our leaders," are the ones benefiting from this divisiveness! They have successfully managed to convince us for too long now that WE are the enemy! We will free ourselves through our unity, not our divisiveness. 

Now is the time for us to wake up!..............https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3nvuzAb3Ng&frags=pl%2Cwn
