I have a feeling you might have missed this, so I wanted to repost it. President Trump has been going on every show he can recently, and I don’t even know how he finds the time. This is from back in June which feels like a lifetime ago, but it’s so good that I didn’t want it to get lost. This is the All-In podcast, ran by four Big Tech Silicon Valley entrepreneurs and investors. If you don’t know these guys, here’s a crash course on your four hosts: The All-In Podcast is a popular weekly podcast hosted by a group of highly successful and influential investors, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders. The show covers a wide array of topics, from current events and politics to technology, business, and markets. It offers listeners a deep dive into key issues with a candid, informative, and often humorous take from the hosts. The Hosts: Chamath Palihapitiya Chamath is a prominent venture capitalist, entrepreneur, and the CEO of Social Capital. He gained significant recognition for his early role as an executive at Facebook, where he helped scale the company. Chamath has a keen eye for identifying trends in technology and markets, often leading successful investments in cutting-edge sectors such as healthcare, education, and artificial intelligence. He’s known for his forward-thinking views on technology’s potential to solve global challenges and his advocacy for democratizing access to financial opportunities.

What in the Hell did I just watch? No, that wasn’t meant to be pejorative, it was meant to be descriptive….this woman exudes demonic vibes straight from the pit of Hell itself! But to steal a line from Reading Rainbow, don’t take my word for it! Watch for yourself here: Democrat Gov Gretchen Whitmer blasphemes the Eucharist, feeding a Dorito to a leftist podcaster as if it’s Holy Communion. Wearing a Kamala hat. It’s wild that some Christians refuse to vote when Democrats obviously loathe you… because you’re Christian.pic.twitter.com/tcVN1lzWmh — Liz Wheeler (@Liz_Wheeler) October 10, 2024 Backup video here if needed: Let’s be clear what’s happening in this video. Gov. Whitmer of Michigan is pretending to give communion to an leftist podcaster on her knees, using a Dorito as the Eucharist while wearing a Harris-Walz hat. Do they want ZERO Catholic votes for Harris?pic.twitter.com/daUTNX9vNn — Tim Murtaugh (@TimMurtaugh) October 10, 2024 Ok, so I tried my best to describe this in the headline, but what does it look like to you? It looks like it’s intended to be a mock porno but then for some reason they do Communion with a Dorito? Very weird. Very sick. And hang on Catholics, I don’t need you upset at me again….I call it Communion, you call it the “Eucharist”.  Stand down Catholics! I posted this last week and I’ve still got Catholics emailing me on a daily basis to yell at me: MEMO TO THE CATHOLICS: Please Stop Praying To Mary and Angels So I do not need the Catholics getting mad at me again please! We're all on the same side here. The evil is with this woman shooting this strange and creepy and evil video. CatholicVote also weighed in: Michigan’s bishops and other Catholics are crying foul after Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer posted a video mocking Holy Communion on social media. In the video, Whitmer stands wearing a Harris-Walz campaign hat and places a Doritos chip on the tongue of a kneeling pro-abortion writer. The song “Dilemma” by Nelly ft. Kelly Rowland plays in the video as the governor places the mock communion on the tongue of left-wing Canadian columnist and content creator Liz Plank. Plank, who has written for MSNBC and was behind an initiative called “Hotties for Harris,” has repeatedly expressed pro-abortion views and referred to pro-life pregnancy resource centers as “fake clinics.” According to political commentator Collin Rugg, Plank and Whitmer created the widely scrutinized video “as a bizarre way to get more votes for Harris.” After a day of mounting criticism from Catholics, Whitmer released a statement claiming there was nothing offensive about the video, but expressing an apology for the fact that it was “construed as something it was never intended to be.” “Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith,” the statement read: I’ve used my platform to stand up for people’s right to hold and practice their personal religious beliefs. My team has spoken to the Michigan Catholic Conference. What was supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs, has been construed as something it was never intended to be, and I apologize for that. The New York Post reported that the deeply controversial video, which Plank posted to her Instagram account @feministabulous, “is an apparent takeoff on a TikTok meme in which friends feed each other food and stare uncomfortably into the camera.” Whitmer’s followup statement, which seemed more a defense of the video than an apology to Catholics, is unlikely to quell the burgeoning Catholic backlash. The Post noted that Plank “tried to shoe-horn the vid into a statement on industrial policy — specifically about the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022, which gave billions in funding to boost the semiconductor industry.” How else can this be interpreted other than mockery of Catholics and the sacrament of Holy Communion, not to mention the distasteful pornographic innuendo? Gretchen Whitmer is only the latest example of the gross anti-Catholic bigotry festering inside the Democratic Party. pic.twitter.com/KG1BmHYkJM — CatholicVote (@CatholicVote) October 10, 2024 And from local KRON4: The Catholic League criticized Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) on Friday for posting a video showing her feeding a Dorito to a podcaster, with the group accusing her of mocking the Eucharist. Podcaster Liz Plank posted a video on her Instagram showing herself being fed a Dorito by Whitmer, who’s standing above Plank. The camera turns to Whitmer who offers the camera a serious expression while wearing Harris-Walz campaign gear. It would appear the Catholic League took issue with the positioning of Plank in the video, which Catholic League President Bill Donohue claims shows Plank “kneeling” and “receiving food on the tongue,” as one would during Holy Communion. “Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer insulted Catholics nationwide when she intentionally ridiculed the Eucharist in a video,” Donohue wrote in a statement. He added: “There is no way to understand this stunt other than as an expression of vintage anti-Catholic bigotry. Whitmer’s team, and her allies in the media, are trying to distort what she did.” But Plank’s video follows a meme format of many similar TikTok videos, which include a similar dynamic of people being fed with the song “Dilemma,” by Nelly and Kelly Rowland playing in the background. Plank’s video — and its inclusion of Doritos — were intended to be in support of the CHIPS and Science Act, which was signed into law by Pres. Biden in 2022 and aimed to boost semiconductor manufacturing in the U.S. “Chips aren’t just delicious, the CHIPS Act is a game-changer for U.S. tech and manufacturing, boosting domestic production of semiconductors to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers! Donald Trump would put that at risk,” Plank wrote in the video’s caption. Donohue derided the idea that the post was meant to be in support of semiconductor legislation. “There are indeed many clips of people feeding each other on social media, but there is no reference to the CHIPS Act, nor are they eating chips. The typical video on TikTok shows one person sitting at a table, often in a restaurant, being fed — usually with a fork or spoon — by a friend,” he argued. “None of them are kneeling. None of them are receiving food on the tongue,” he added, though it’s unclear from the video whether Plank is kneeling or not. “What Whitmer did was to deride Holy Communion. There is no wiggle room for her to deny the obvious.” Helene Hare, a spokeswoman for Whitmer’s Fight Like Hell PAC, responded to Catholic League’s criticism noting in a statement that “the governor’s social media is well known for infusing her communications with pop culture.”

There is no end to clown news today. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who has joined Biden-Harris in opening our borders and welcoming in millions of anonymous foreigners, said it’s “preposterous” to think it was done deliberately so they could vote. He must think people are awfully stupid. It seems to work for […] The post Mayorkas: “Preposterous” to Say the Law Deliberately Let Illegals In to Vote appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Thank goodness Tampon Tim wasn't trying to kick down doors in Iraq

A reader contacted me after they had experienced, what they believe may have been, a 'Glimmer Man' or a semi-invisible cloaked being while walking a local trail.I received the following account:"Hello. I have been reading your posts describing, what you call, the 'Glimmer Man.' I had a very strange trail encounter with an invisible two-legged large 'thing' while walking with my dog. Some of the trail sections have wooded areas alongside the walking paths. So most of the trail has woods on one side of the path and the park is on the other side of the trail. The wooded area is not very large. I would guess about 300 feet by half a mile. So I don't consider it a forest. I just call it the woods. I'm located in northeast Wisconsin near Sturgeon Bay.The wooded area of the park has 3 or 4 small creeks and I think only one of the creeks has some water. Most of the trees are beautiful and normal tall trees and some of the trees here and there look like they are dead. There are always people and kids going down there to ride bikes, hang out, and whatever else they do.One day around 4pm I took my female dog (Jazz) for our normal everyday walk. We had just gotten out of the car and began our walk. We were probably walking on the trail for about 5 minutes or so when I started feeling weird after a turn. No not scared or afraid. I started to feel happy and my little pain aches had disappeared. This was very strange because I remember saying to myself inside my head, not out loud. I said. "Wow, I feel good, I feel like a little kid. I feel brand new." It was only about 20 seconds of this young and joyful feeling when all of a sudden, something had let go of a large bush that it was holding on to. The thing sounded like it was intertwined in the bush, like holding on and trying to hide.At the same time as the noise in the bush, Jazz turned towards the bush and started going after it. I had Jazz on a leash and she was dragging me almost taking me into the woods. I had to hold her back because I couldn't see what was making all that noise. It moved through another tall bush and started stepping heavy with loud thumps. I think it fell when it made it out of the bush area. The thing was only about 15 feet away from us on the other side of the bushes and sounded like two very large horses stomping on the ground. I could see the bushes and the grass moving but I could not see anything.We moved back away from the trail a few feet so I could see a clearing on the other side of the bushes to try to see this thing. I looked right where the sounds of steps were coming from and saw nothing. So I looked down at the ground and I could see where two feet were stepping on the tall grass. I remember I said to myself, in my head, 'No way, that is not an invisible monster.'After I said that I heard something I will never forget. The thing started making loud T-Rex, stomps. Then I said out loud, "That sounds like T-Rex, from the movies!" I recall I could feel the stomps on the ground. Jazz and I were just looking into the woods at this sound. I could feel my ear drums shaking bad and both ear drums felt like busted speakers. In my head, I said, "It's trying to blow my eardrums!"The T-Rex stomps lasted about 10 or 15 seconds. Then the sound stopped it just turned off like a light switch. I have no idea if it jumped into something or if it vanished. It is strange because after all that I still felt happy with no worry or fear at all. Just very curious. I really wanted to see it.On the way home I remember thinking that other day I would have been afraid and ran away from it. I heard this thing 3 or 4 times in the following days. In another section of woods. I could hear someone heavy walking on leaves just inside the tree line about 30 feet away in the woods alongside me and Jazz. I would hear it and I would stop without turning to it. And it would take a step or two and it would stop. I turned around a few times to see nothing because it wasn't moving. I did this a few times to make sure. I would tell myself, in my head, "If a person stays on the trail they have no permission to take you."I think one time, I heard his steps in the woods next to me. I said to myself in my head, "I think it wants me to make a mistake and go into the woods, towards it" After I thought that I never heard it again. I am sure it can hear what I am thinking.Just a few weeks ago I saw something very strange related to this thing. Jaz and I were walking in the same part of the trail only about 100 feet away from my first encounter where the bushes were. I stop to look into the woods. I was standing still looking past the trees. The area was covered in a few inches of light green grass. I was looking kind of downhill at how the woods go down in and around the creek down there. I said to myself, ''It looks beautiful, the trees, the color of greens, and the sunlight and shadow. It looks like a postcard, perfect." About 2 or 3 seconds after I thought that, while I was just looking down at this area of woods I saw a big human-shaped blur, move between two trees about 80 feet away. I saw it for a split second. It was big. Maybe ten feet tall. Big head, big muscled shoulders and I remember its big left leg. I remember his left knee and the big muscle above it. I could see the thick shiny hair on the leg. Yes, this thing looked exactly like the 'Predator' from the movie when it was cloaked. It is very weird how my brain was able to capture this image. My memory surprised me.Its shoulders, its head, and the side of its back were reflecting the woods between him and me. It looked like a male, not a female. In my opinion, I think it took off running because I thought I was sensing that it was in the area. But I had no idea it was there. I think it knows Jazz, can't pick up on him if he hides a little farther away from the trail.I am very cautious when we go walking near the woods now. I also tell people where I am going. I have no idea why this thing got so close to me or what its intentions were. And I also don't know why it ran away from me those times. Was there something or someone behind me that startled it? These occurrences were a very incredible time of my life. It changed me in a good way. I often think, I don't know, but maybe that's why dogs are on this planet. To help us and pick up on these invisible things when they get too close. Always be happy and do the things you love doing in your life. Have no worries and certainly no fear. I hope my story helps people to be alert and careful out there in this world." C**********TERRIFYING ENCOUNTERS! INTENSE, RAW FEAR! | LIVE Chat | Q & A | Join Us!

A Missouri woman recalls, along with her friend and brother, their encounter with a white, monstrous pig-faced dog that was seen in the woods near their childhood home.I received the following account:"I recently attended my high school reunion and chatted with my old neighbor and best friend Ash. She said 'Do you remember that pig-faced monster we saw?' I looked at her with shock as the horrible memory flooded back. I must have been so terrified I blocked it out but. Oh yes. I remember.We used to live on a secluded dirt road, well, in the middle of a 40-acre plot away from the road. Our property joined a huge state park at the back, 25 miles from the nearest town in Missouri. We were about 16, so around 2003.We were babysitting our younger siblings so it was us and 4 younger ones. Our parents were out for the night. Obviously, we were no strangers to the woods. We knew the whole property well and would even walk the 2 miles between our houses. Free-range kids.So it's way past dark, but we have a pole light by the house. It's summer so it feels great outside. We were all playing tag or hide and seek, running around. I ran around the corner of my house and I saw something white, like a flash, run behind the propane tank, then the well house. Our backyard was clear beside the small well house and propane tank, the woods are probably 150 yards away, so not a lot of places for an animal to hide. Ash saw it too. The kids are still playing and we thought it was a stray dog, even though this thing was crazy fast, way faster than a dog. Up until that point, we had no reason to fear anything in the woods, we don't have large predators. So we're like 'Oh poor dog, let's check it out.' We sprint over around the well house and see a crouched white thing. I remember its hands were long-fingered HANDS. It was matted and dirty and smelled like death. My mind couldn't quite even comprehend its face but it had like a long kinda upturned nose and no hair on its face, like a snarling dog pig. I don't really remember the eyes but I think they were black and yellow, all I know is they looked evil and inspired fear I hadn't known.At that moment we screamed and ran, and the thing dashed off into the woods as I looked over my shoulder. The kids hear us scream and know something is wrong. We scream at them to get in the house and we lock the doors. I couldn't keep my eyes off the back windows, like I didn't want to see it but I had kids to protect so I felt like I needed to know if it was there. We were just scared, pumped with adrenaline, and couldn't even speak about it. We got the kids calmed down and to bed finally, and I talked with Ash and she saw the same thing I did. My parents got home and we broke down freaking out, crying, pointing at the wellhouse. My stepdad even went out there with a gun we were so adamant. They told us it was probably a feral hog and we were just tired or something. We didn't tell anyone at school and never brought it up again.After the reunion I asked my brother who is six years younger than me, if he remembered that night we saw a monster at mom's old house. He said no and I started talking about how I forgot about it until Ash brought it up and about how we saw something run behind the wellhouse. He interrupts me and asks 'Was it white?' I say, 'Yeah.' He asks, 'Did it have a face like a weird dog?' I nod. His eyes get big and he basically starts yelling 'OMG, I saw that thing down the road from there a few years ago!' And freaking out, visible goosebumps on his arms.He says he was driving the dirt road with his girlfriend at the time, hauling ass like always but on the really rocky patches he would hit the brakes and drive slow over the rocks. He saw something in his headlights standing about ten feet from the ditch, so still he thought someone put a weird statue out there, but its eyes followed him and its face was sweaty. It was white but muddy, had a dog face and long-fingered hands, and stood on two legs at least 6 feet tall. Its eyes followed him as he passed it and he looked in the rearview mirror and saw it dash away into the trees. He asked his girlfriend if she saw it and she just nodded. They never spoke of it again and he never told anybody. He said he kind of blocked it out until I brought up the monster at Mom's place.I stopped playing in the woods after that day in 2003 and started doing sports and teenage things. Ash stopped walking to my house and we grew apart. Now my brother and I are creeped out. I need to call my mom."
