Trudeau and Macron were caught on on a hot mic saying......

"Now, we're not ones to go 'round spreadin' rumors,
Why, really we're just not the gossipy kind,
No, you'll never hear one of us repeating gossip,
So you'd better be sure and listen close the first time!

That Pres. Trump is more than mean and hateful,
He's the biggest bully in all of this creation,
He wants us to pay our 2% to NATO or he'll
Pull defense and call us two-faced deadbeats."






In case you are to young to remember.

This should put Trump in his place!

Melania has finally revealed her White House Christmas Decor for 2019. The AP did a great job with their camera work:


Beautiful trees, beautiful lights, beautiful ornaments, and beautiful Christmas music played by the Marine Band. All chosen by the most beautiful First Lady since Jackie. Who could ask for more?

Noted constitutional scholar Professor Van Nostrand from The People's Cube will testify before the House Judiciary committee Wednesday on 'What the little people need to know to understand this impeachment thing.'

Professor Van Nostrand, noted constitutional scholar and expert on impeachment, has written several papers on the subject of scholarly constitutional impeachment scholar constitutional scholarship sounding constitutional scholarship, and many letters to the editor.

Here is a real, undoctored photo of Joe Biden sucking on wife Jill's finger as she speaks to his potential voters at a campaign stop in Iowa.

Given that Biden's campaign poster in the photo says "No malarkey" and his campaign bus is also named "No malarkey," it is safe to assume that all of this is somehow connected.



Is Joe suffering from malarkey-deficiency? Is he sniffing every girl's hair to detect the presence of malarkey? Is his campaign slogan a complaint about the lack of malarkey? Is it a promise to bring malarkey to every American home?



Is his wife saying that Joe likes to suck on her finger every time she takes it out of her malarkey?

And finally, is reality an illusion caused by the lack of malarkey?

We may be wrong, so we encourage you to post your own findings.

Here's Joe Biden's "No malarkey" bus.




And here's Joe fantacizing about children rubbing malarkey into his hairy legs by the pool, and then jumping on his lap like the lovely roaches that they are. Or something.

There isn't enough malarkey in the world to make me unsee this.

Comrades!

CrowdStrike: a Conspiracy Wrapped in a Conspiracy Inside a Conspiracy


In the last few days, media talking heads have been saying the word "CrowdStrike" a lot, defining it as a wild conspiracy theory originating in Moscow. They were joined by Chris Wallace at Fox News, who informed us that president Trump and his ill-informed fans believe in a crazy idea that the DNC wasn't hacked by the Russians but by some Ukrainian group named CrowdStrike that stole the DNC server and brought it to Ukraine , and that it was Ukraine that meddled in our 2016 election and not Russia.

A crazy idea indeed. Except that neither Trump nor his fans had ever heard of it until the Democrat-media complex condescendingly informed them that these are their beliefs.

Let's look at the facts:

Fact 1. In 2016 the DNC hired the Ukrainian-linked firm CrowdStrike to analyze their server and investigate a data breach.

Fact 2. CrowdStrike experts determined that the culprit was Russia.

Fact 3. The FBI never received access to the DNC server, so the Russian connection was never officially confirmed and continues to be an allegation coming from the DNC and its Ukrainian-linked contractor.

Fact 4. Absent the official verdict, other theories continue to circulate, including the possibility that the theft was an inside job by a DNC employee, who simply copied the files to a USB drive and sent it to WikiLeaks.

None of these facts was ever disputed by anyone. The media largely ignored them except for the part about the Russian hackers, which boosted their own, now debunked, wild conspiracy theory that Trump was a Russian agent.

Now that Trump had asked the newly elected Ukrainian president Zelensky to look into CrowdStrike during that fateful July phone call, the media all at once started telling us that "CrowdStrike" is a code word for a conspiracy theory so insane that only Trump could believe in it, which is just more proof of how insane he is.

But if Trump had really said what Mr. Wallace and the media claim, Ukrainians would be the first to call him on it and the impeachment would've been over by now. Instead, Ukrainians back Trump every step of the way.

So where did this pretzel-shaped fake news come from, and why is it being peddled now?

Note this is a classic case study of propaganda and media manipulation:

1. Take an idea or a story that you wish to go away and make up an obviously bogus story with the same names and details as the real one.


2. Start planting it simultaneously on media channels until the fake story supplants the real one, while claiming this is what your opponents really believe.


3. Have various fact-checking outlets debunk your fake story as an absurd conspiracy theory. Ridicule those who allegedly believe in it. Better yet, have late night comedians do it for you.


4. Once your opponent is brought down, mercilessly plant your boot on his face and never let up.

This mass manipulation technology had been tested and perfected by the Soviet propaganda machine, both domestically and overseas, where it was successfully deployed by the KGB. The Kremlin still uses it, although it can no longer afford it on the same grandiose scale. In this sense, the Democratic think tanks are the true successors of the KGB in deviousness, scope, and worldwide reach of fake narratives. How they inherited these methods from the KGB is a story for another day.

For a long time this technology was allowing the Democrats to delegitimize opposition by convincing large numbers of Americans that Republicans are…

• Haters


• Racists


• Fascists


• Deniers of science


• Destroyers of the environment


• Heartless sellouts to corporate interests


• And so on - the list is endless.

The Soviet communists had aptly named it "disinformation," which is a cut above the English word "misinformation." It includes a variety of methods for a variety of needs, from bringing down an opponent to revising history to creating a new historical reality altogether. In this sense, most Hollywood movies on historical subjects today disinform us about history, supplanting it with a bogus "progressive" narrative. The Soviet term for such art was "socialist realism."

Long story short, the Democrat-media complex has successfully convinced one half of the world that Trump is a Russian agent. Now they're acting as if they'd spent the last three years in a coma, unaware of any bombshell stories about collusion. And bombshell stories without any continuation are a telltale sign of fake narratives. The only consequence of these bombshells is mass amnesia among the foot soldiers.

The Trump-Russian outrage is dead, long live the Trump-Ukraine outrage. And when that outrage is dead, the next outrage that will be just outrageous.

The current impeachment narrative alleges that Trump used military aid as leverage in asking Ukraine to dig up dirt on Joe Biden (which implies the Democrats know Biden is dirty, otherwise why bother?). What's not in this picture is CrowdStrike. Even though Trump mentioned it in the phone call, it has nothing to do with the Bidens nor the Javelin missiles. CrowdStrike has nothing to do with impeachment. We're told it's just a silly conspiracy theory in Trump's head, that it's a nonissue.

But then why fabricate fake news about it and plant blatant lies simultaneously in all media outlets from Mother Jones to Fox News? Why risk being exposed over such a nonissue? Perhaps because it's more important than the story suggests.

Only a computer illiterate would think that CrowdStrike needed to take the physical DNC server to Ukraine in order to analyze it. Any computer can be cloned and its digital image can be sent anywhere on the planet in the form of ones and zeroes. It can also exist in multiple digital copies, carrying not just confidential archives, but also history logs and other content that can reveal to an expert whether the hacking occurred, and if so, by whom.

The copies of the DNC server on CrowdStrike computers are likely to hold the key to understanding what really happened during the 2016 election, the origin of the anti-Trump witch hunt, and the toxic cloud of lies that had been hanging over the world and poisoning minds during the last three years.

And now the new Ukrainian government might subpoena these copies from CrowdStrike and finally pass them to FBI experts, which should've been done three years ago. The danger of this happening is a much greater incentive for the Democrats to preemptively destroy Trump than all the dirt Joe Biden had been rolling in as Obama's vice president.

This gives the supposedly innocuous reference to CrowdStrike during Trump's call a lot more gravity and the previously incoherent part of the transcript begins to make sense.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it. I would like you to find out what happened with this whole situation with Ukraine, they say CrowdStrike... I guess you have one of your wealthy people... The server, they say Ukraine has it. There are a lot of things that went on, the whole situation.

If you read the transcript on the day it was released, you probably didn't understand what Trump was even talking about, let alone what had caused such a disproportionate outrage, complete with whistle blowing and calls for impeachment. What in that mild conversation could possibly terrify the Democrats so much? They were terrified because, unlike most Americans, the Democrats knew exactly what Trump was talking about. And now you know, too.

The fraudulent "CrowdStrike conspiracy" deflection is not a show of the Democrats' strength. Instead, It betrays their desperation and panic, which tells us that Trump is squarely over the target.

It also helps us to see who at Fox News can be trusted to tell us the truth. And it ain't Chris Wallace.

Chancellor Angela Merkel delivered an emotional speech to the German Budestag this week on the need for limiting freedom of speech. "We Have to Take Away your Freedom of Speech or We Won’t Be Free."






Angela Merkel: For those who claim they can no longer express their opinion, I say this to them: If you express and pronounced opinion, you must live with the fact that you will be contradicted. Expressing an opinion does not come at zero cost. But freedom of expression has its limits. Those limits begin where hatred is spread. They begin where the dignity of other people is violated. This house will and must oppose extreme speech. Otherwise our society will no longer be the free society that it was.





A United Sates Congressman agrees, Rep. Ted Lieu (D., Calif.) said he would “love to be able to regulate the content of speech” during an interview Wednesday, noting he was prevented from doing that by the First Amendment.

She's tanned, rested, and ready!


Hillary is stocking up on hot sauce as she prepares to make a run for the White House.


The gracious Hillary Clinton was recently spotted in the Hot Sauce aisle at Chappaqua Grocery Store.







As we all now know, Hillary always keeps a bottle of hot sauce in her purse… or so she told black radio hosts in 2016 on the campaign trail.

“What’s something that you always carry with you?” the radio host asked Hillary.

“Hot sauce,” Hillary said.

“I just want you know that everyone is going to say, okay, she’s pandering to black people,” one of the radio hosts said.

“Is it workin?” Hillary responded in her fake southern accent.

President Trump has tweeted a picture he is representing as himself with his shirt off. Many concerned citizens have asked if this is in fact a actual picture of the President. The People's Cube assigned its resident internet pictures scholars to find out the true facts.





Rating:



The professional scholars of internet pictures have found this claim to be false.

This is NOT an actual photo of President Trump with his shirt off. 97% of international experts agree that this picture was doctored by Trump in an attempt to falsify his record as the worst president of the United States by pretending he actually played Rocky in the award-winning movie from 1980s. Nobody except his cultist followers will believe that he was in that film. This criminal attempt to steal the next election by fostering his strange personality cult will be added to the already long list of impeachable offenses.

Another day, another impeachable offense.

Teach your kids socialist values with this play kit. Includes Barbie and Ken in the kitchen of a Soviet communal apartment, with a realistic look and feel of the era, circa 1970s or 1980s.

Guaranteed to turn all children into Bernie-voting socialists when they grow up.

Just tell them that in Soviet Russia, dolls play you!

As Adam Schiff opened the final day of impeachment testimony, he thanked the minority party, the day’s witnesses and a country that wants politicians to take care of all basic needs. He expressed confidence that the trail to impeachment would crush President Trump, ending his chance for a second term.
Nancy Pelosi commented that:

“This removes the voter from the election process. And even proves that we can eliminate the act of voting as a basic need. Unless it does the opposite.”

Schiff expressed sureness that voters will come to several unanimous conclusions by the end of the day. Namely that the majority members provided solid proof that Trump says mean things and is orange. Schiff noted another obvious conclusion.

“The committee has relieved an already overburdened citizenry of its voting obligation.”

His confidence was now peaking as evident by the dramatic reduction in his blink rate and eye bulging.

Schiff continued with:

“The country should not place the strain of voting on working-class people, living or dead. We want to free all citizens from their November 2020 election day drudgery for new pursuits”.

To fill the resulting abundance of free time, Schiff suggested memorizing Mao Zedong poetry, identifying crimes against the establishment, or improving on Venezuelan recipes that have road-kill, tree bark, and used socks as the only ingredients.

The committee managed the final testimonies as during the previous days. Each minority committee member was required to bang their head on the dais three times prior to each five-minute session, precede each question with “by the power given through the committee chair”, and replenish the majority’s stock of peeled grapes during intermissions.

Following the final witness’ testimony, Schiff concluded the House open hearings.

“I’d like to thank everyone who participated during these House Committee on Circus Act Strategy hearings. We all recognize that our citizenry remains too dumb, destitute, dependent and/or deplorable to live without the government as a surrogate parent. Therefore, we next take on John and Jane Q. Public’s burden of food chewing.”

Schiff blinked that last statement in Morse code.

Well, well, well. The US-Ukraine corruption turns out to be much more than just one Biden. It's a huge multi-level money laundering scheme in which the Bidens are a tiny cog. When the Dems want us to leave Biden alone, they're protecting many other, yet unnamed players.

They have no choice but to protect Biden by claiming he can't be investigated because he's Trump's political opponent. This may be the reason why Biden is in the race in the first place, against his will. It's their angle. If he drops out, Dems will lose their major angle. So Biden will keep running until this matter is resolved one way or another, or until he simply drops dead between campaign stops somewhere in Iowa or New Hempshire.

In short, there is a group of very powerful crooks inside or close to the Dem Party, who are willing to drag this nation through a dirty, nonsensical impeachment, and to destroy many lives and fortunes in the process, in order to stop this investigation. Wouldn't you like to know who these people are?

This is Oliver Stone material, if he could only see beyond his self-imposed one-Party blinders.

MPs demand Zelensky, Trump investigate suspicion of U.S.-Ukraine corruption involving $7.4 bln


Ben Garrison has captured it very well here, although the hands in the cookie jar are a lot more numerous, not limited to Pelosi, Biden, Romney, and Kerry.

Here's the difference between the Trump economy and the Obama economy in a nutshell.

@JussieSmollett is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I’m praying for his quick recovery. This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.

She is such a good judge of character. Let's pray for Vindman.

ABC has also posted today a video of Mr. Vindman with this comment:

Rep. Devin Nunes refers to Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman as "Mr. Vindman." "Ranking member, it's lieutenant colonel Vindman, please," Vindman responds.

It seems that Mr. Vindman is now on his way to join the pantheon of heroic prog-martyrs, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Christine Blasey Ford, Jussie Smollett, and others.

Let me respond with this prepared, prog-off statement:

As another immigrant from Soviet Ukraine: Vindman, you're a windbag. I shouldn't even call you a fellow immigrant. You were brought to the US by your dad with a cushy refugee status and government assistance, living among welfare sponges on Brighton Beach. You didn't know the hardships of living in the USSR, you didn't make a conscious decision to move here, and you never struggled to feed a family as an immigrant, left to your own devices, like I have. Your sanctimonious, manipulative drivel about being an "immigrant" made me sick to my stomach.

Let me yield the floor to Tim Kennedy, UFC Fighter, Ranger, sniper, and Special Forces Operator:

Correcting a civilian about how to be addressed is a sure way to make everyone in the military think you are a douche bag.

Whatever good your service may have done to this nation in the past, is now being negated tenfold by the harm you're doing by participating in a coup against the duly elected president, by undermining his foreign policy, and by appearing before the cameras to read the scripts written for you by treacherous, power-hungry liars.

Lieutenant colonel, shmieutenat scmolonel.

If your mailbox is getting filled with emails promising lucrative money transfers from Eastern Europe to your personal checking account coming from "Hunter Biden, son of the ousted Vice President Joe Biden," (rock.candy@burisma-group.com), do not respond.

Thousands of people in Eastern Europe and around the world have reportedly been scammed by such proposals in recent years. The emails usually contain urgent business proposals, from shipments of thermal blankets for the military to wiring millions of dollars to your savings account for a 30% portion of the amount. In addition to losing money, victims of these scams, such as, the previous government of Ukraine and some of its businesses must now answer very uncomfortable questions.

As of late, the mailings also contain an added request from the son of the ousted vice president to help him to relocate to the recipients' countries due to a worsening criminal climate in the homeland.

See the example below.


Greetings, my prospective rich and powerful friend in a foreign government,

This message may come to you as a surprise because you do not know me. I am Hunter Biden, son of the deposed vice president Joe Biden, seeking for an avenue to enter into an urgent but lucrative business transaction without delay. My poor father was a strong supporter of the ousted president Barack Obama, for which he had received control over one billion US dollars to be distributed among trusted friends and associates with reputable credit history, like yourself.

Right now my father is suffering from dementia and doesn't remember where he put that one billion dollars. That leaves me as the only heir with access to my father's fortune in the banks of Lagos, Tripoli, and Benin. Please be aware that the unlawful regime of Donald Trump wants this money back, so we better act fast. Additionally, I have keys to the crates with unmarked bills in the amount of 50 million dollars, Euros, and dinars, kept in a safe cargo area in a friendly Middle Eastern country. Half of this money can be yours if you allow me to become your business partner and if you follow my detailed instructions.

After Trump overthrew my father's democratic regime, I have lost my sustenance as a military officer and my family has been harassed and threatened with dirty investigations. I cannot disclose any sources, but I'm in possession of sensitive inside information which I'm willing to share with you because I trust you to keep this confidential. Believe me when I say that very soon, with the help of faithful friends like yourself and others who have previously become my trusted business partners, Trump will be toppled and my poor father will regain his rightful seat in the White House. Our family will generously reward those instrumental in our comeback. This could also be you if you respond to this letter within the next 15 minutes.

Trump's criminal tentacles have now reached the State Department and the Department of Justice, which makes it unsafe for us to conduct international transactions as usual. That is why I am offering to receive your contribution in the form of placing me on the Board of Directors of one of your national corporations with a salary equal or exceeding $83,000 a month.

These low monthly payments will guarantee that your government receives all the needed international aid, preferential trade agreements, IMF loans, modern weaponry, plus a positive media image to help perpetuate your power regardless of your political ideology. And if you also hire my uncle James, I can promise you highly classified intelligence sharing. All this will be yours as soon as my father becomes President and I take control of his executive office. My father has never denied me anything, and given his declining state of mind he is not going to start now.

I'm also asking you for a small personal favor. I wish to temporarily relocate to your country due to the poor conditions in the US, where I am fully exposed to prosecution, media inquiries, and congressional subpoenas. Your immediate response will guarantee you a better outcome.

Remain blessed,
Hunter Biden
Son of soon-to-be president Joe Biden

Having tried and failed with every attempt to remove Trump from office, Democrats enlisted the bold and courageous Rep. Eric Swalwell to demonstrate their ultimate anti-Trump weapon.

The Democrat Congressman helping lead the charge for impeachment was being interviewed by Chris Matthews. Then, fire in the hole, pull...

The experience was so satisfying that both participants have been reported to have thrills running down their legs.



Did Eric Swalwell study film clips of The Spleen in the 1999 movie Mystery Men to help develop this weapon? It certainly seems so...

Dearest Comrades, my family,

When I first heard of Kanye’s transformation, I thought he was trying to capitalize on the Christian right. After listening to Closed on Sunday, I saw that he was just saying what he experienced which I found honest and real. He doesn’t need the money. He, like Trump, who also doesn’t need the money, wants to proceed in a way that digs very deep into our “situation.”

That “situation” is the cultural war in which we find ourselves. Even if you are not a Christian or, in fact, an atheist, one cannot deny the cultural impact such a theology has had, not only in the formation of America, but the very decency of life in the world.

Are all Christians paragons of virtue? Of course not, because we are all flawed. But, the principles of Christianity are what have guided us and have provided us with the certainty of truth and love. Without these principles, easily observed in the world throughout time, civilization is lost to chaos. Just sayin’.

In a former post on The Cube “Is There Really a God”, I told about an experience I had that defied explanation. It seems to me Kanye has had that same experience, as did a few of my Cube comrades.

As a singer, I think I can see what it takes to make these sounds. Actually, you probably can, too. In my opinion, you cannot make these sounds without digging deep into your soul. These sounds Kanye makes touch me deeply. I have added my voice in many choirs, both professional (Los Angeles Master Choral, Roger Wagner Choral) as well as many other non-professional choirs. I did it because I love singing with others. That being said, I only wish I could sing with Kanye’s absolutely stunning, inspired choir.

I encourage you to listen to just three for now. I’ve already posted one. Maybe one will be enough, but I’ve provided the other two for ease of instant gratification should you be so inclined.

Here’s another:

This is where Chase the Rapper testifies and comes to the bottom of himself. The way the choir embraces him with their support and love is just flat out awesome!

Next: Saint Pablo Sunday Service:

Incredible! This is where people are praying to the night sky, hoping that God will say “Hi.”
