Do I believe that some people have this ability, whether naturally or trained? Absolutely. I know I’ve mentioned my living-lie-detector mother before. She could see a man on, say, 60 Minutes, swearing up and down that the accusation of X was not true. She’d casually fling out “He’s lying” and, weeks later, it would be proven she was right – he had been lying. I don’t recall an instance where she was wrong in this.

Biden’s “Respect for Marriage Act” Is an Orwellian Assault on Reality – The Stream
It’s to make you have to speak nonsense. Channeling this quote:
“Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”
― Theodore Dalrymple

Iran’s Nuclear Holiday Gift to al-Qaeda › American Greatness (amgreatness.com) (link in original):
Fortunately for the Saudis and the rest of the region, the shipment was intercepted before it could make it to the hands of the Houthis. Sadly, however, the shipment was stopped by none other than al-Qaeda. The whereabouts of the weapons-grade uranium remain unknown at this time.
So, a threat that was once isolated to Saudi Arabia and the Greater Middle East has now metamorphosed into a direct threat to the American homeland.
…
With that weapons-grade, Iranian-made uranium, al Qaeda could fashion a dirty bomb. They could send the weapon from abroad into the waiting hands of their sleeper agents hidden throughout the United States via America’s wide-open southern border. Al-Qaeda could then achieve their dream of killing masses of Americans in one fell swoop, possibly wiping out a major American city while they are at it, all while the Biden Administration sleepily ignores the threat in favor of directing an ever-increasing amount of limited state resources into hunting Russian ghosts at Mar-a-Lago and prosecuting “right-wing terrorists.”
America is vulnerable. An al-Qaeda dirty bomb attack may be coming sooner than we realize.
What’s coming across our southern border? Never mind the implications globally.

I came very close to joining the nuclear Navy in college. But as it turned out I had a friend who taught at the nuke school in Orlando, and he told me that while I’d love the technical stuff, I’d hate the Navy. Realistically, looking back, I should have anyway. Given what’s come of it now, no.

The Great Gold Robbery of 1933 | Mises Institute
We need emergency powers to save the country:
Among other things, the act retroactively approved the president’s closing of private banks throughout the country for several days the previous week, an act for which he had not bothered to provide a legal justification. It gave the secretary of the Treasury the power to require all individuals and corporations to hand over all their gold coin, gold bullion, or gold certificates if in his judgment “such action is necessary to protect the currency system of the United States.”
Sounds familiar. Just trust us.
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.

So many possible flash points. And I fear that if one goes, many others will too. On the Russian front:

It’s Time To Tell The Truth About Colonialism In Africa (thefederalist.com)
A fascinating article and I’ll probably order the book. Certainly things are a lot more… nuanced than one might care to admit.
Nevertheless, narratives that seek to portray indigenous populations as innocent — or “enlightened” in comparison to villainous Western settlers — have little basis in history. As Gilley’s book demonstrates, native peoples were capable of great cruelties toward each other, and European intervention often curbed such evils as human sacrifice, misogyny, and slavery.

Top 10 Conspiracy Theories That Will Be Validated In 2023 | ZeroHedge
But will any revelation truly make a dent in the asleeple sheeple’s minds?
=+=+=
Concluding thoughts if I’m moved to comment:
There’s a joke my late father told me. It singles out Catholics because of the punchline, but really it could be about anyone ignoring / wiping out misdeeds by their in-group, whether racial, religious, national, etc. Certainly to some extent I’m guilty of that with respect to my fellow Jews, though – example here – I do try to police my own. For whatever it’s worth. So…
Two Catholic workmen were doing some repair work on a building, and from their work position they can see into the fenced-in parking lot of the local cat house. In drove a car, and a local Evangelical pastor snuck in. One man said to the other, “Such a shame to see a man of the cloth, even a non-Catholic, fallen like that”. Day after day, people they’d know, or an actual religious person, would park and sneak in to similar comments between the two.
Finally, their local Catholic priest went in. “Someone must be needing last rights if Father O’Sullivan is going in”.
Unwilling to see what is right in front of their faces, and rationalizing that truth away.
I see this in so many instances. So many asleeple sheeple simply unable to think that people could be fallen and do bad things. That doctors and other officials could lie to them about the Jab. That their government could fail them, whether on the Jab or the economy or food shortages or whatever.
I fear that many people are in for a rude awakening. And many will not survive, in part because they cannot make the mental switch to a changed world. Resilience and adaptability will be the watchwords.
