Now here is a wild situation.

Potentially thousands of rogue illegal miners trapped underground as long as they refuse to surrender to the police in South Africa.

Quote:Mathe added the police have reason to believe the miners could be heavily armed. Hundreds of firearms and thousands of rounds of ammunition have been seized in police operations against zama zama miners since December, along with about $275,000 in cash and $1.75 million worth of uncut diamonds.

I have a Wildlife Feeding Area (WFA) with an "Observation Post" nearby. When I checked the amount of feed left, I found a large canine paw print. It was a fore paw about 3 & 1/4 inches long and wide. Unfortunately, no trail cam for the WFA.

   

It had identical, evenly-spaced toes that were the size of my thumb. The deer tracks beside it distorted the right toe, so I suspect it may have been wider than 3.25".

A week ago, we were surrounded by coyotes, howling and yip-yapping in every direction for a couple miles. I freaked so bad, that I keep the shotgun loaded now, whereas I never did that before.

Given the size, it may be a domestic dog running after the deer, a huge coyote, or less likely a small wolf. I think perhaps a coy-dog, the coyote/wolf hybrid of the Great Lakes Region.

What do the Rogues think?

Quote:I'm so confused!



Some thoughts on the 2024 US election:

• We must destroy the planet in order to save it, and furthermore the fundamental element of all life and the molecule most needed for plant growth are evil and toxic, and must be eliminated.
  
• Democracy means you have no say in your indentured servitude, and the minority that screams the loudest is the winner.
  
• Freedom means goose-stepping in compliant submission, or be imprisonment without due process for not having permission to be free.
  
• You may speak your mind only insofar as your opinions conform to arbitrary standards, regardless of how absurd or injurious those standards may be.
  
• You must hate haters with more venomous hate than the hate not directed at you.
  
• Good health means obesity, toxic jabs, and surgical self-mutilation under the ministrations of a malignant health care system that allows no alternatives in the name of Science (amen).
  
• You are racist if you are not obsessively hyper-focused on race, and race imparts great wisdom and skill unless your race is out of favor today.
  
• You are a misogynist if you do not wholly and completely submit to the Matriarchy, and misandry is perfectly normal and desirable.
  
• War is peace; truth is a lie; black is the new white.
  

Lesson #1: if you consent to being governed and participate in the system, then you implicitly accept the result.

Lesson #2: if you suddenly find yourself in the minority and no one is persecuting you, thank your stars you live in a republic and not a democracy.

Lesson #3: if you feel an overwhelming need to conform with ideological sympathizers, march in torchlight parades, chant jingoistic slogans fed to you by the effete corporate media, and silence anyone who hurts your feelings, you are the fascist.

Lesson #4: if your immediate response to stress and disappointment is to record yourself throwing a childish tantrum and then sharing it with strangers for empty praise and meaningless clicks, then you are emotionally stunted and require immediate professional intervention.

Lesson #5: withholding sex to force men to comply was the plot of Lysistrata, a Greek comedy written 2,500 years ago by an old white guy named Aristophanes. Also, if you’re not having sex, then you obviously have no need for contraception or abortion, so drop it. Also, bracelets (blue or otherwise) are symbols o slavery.

Lesson #6: if you are leaving the US to protest the election, you will need to comply with immigration laws or be deported, and most countries are not tolerant of radical feminists and open homosexuality, and your opinion of such is banned.

We sincerely hope you have learned from this experience.

Today’s cultural nail on the head is Charlie Chaplin’s 1940 masterpiece The Great Dictator. Beside the famous ‘dancing with the world’ scene, our favorite bit is the parachute hat.

This is one hell of a story about a man's dream of building a legion !

... coming back in from yet another mission.  Sun has already set but the destination airfield will be illuminated for the returning fliers.

The aircraft's pilot is once again enjoying the spectacle before him.

Beneath his bomber, the Pacific Ocean stretches endlessly.  Out here there are no lights down below, and hardly any land or islands at all.

Engines are running well.  Crew is attentive, at their stations, and waiting calmly to reach their destination and chalk up another successful mission.

The dark water's horizon merges with a black sky that is ablaze with stars and planets.  Some are so bright they reflect off the surface of the water below, making it appear as if the aircraft is pushing through deep space itself.  It is a transformative experience for the young pilot.

Sometimes, he and the crew spot lights moving in the sky or in the water below that cannot be identified and which perform astounding maneuvers.

* * * * *

This really happened.

The pilot's name was Gene Roddenberry.

People like this evil supervisor should not have a life outside prison much less a job. See link for rest of the story

Quote:EXCLUSIVE: FEMA Official Ordered Relief Workers To Skip Houses With Trump Signs
Whistleblower: ‘It’s almost unbelievable to think that somebody in the federal government would think that’s okay’

A federal disaster relief official ordered workers to bypass the homes of Donald Trump’s supporters as they surveyed damage caused by Hurricane Milton in Florida, according to internal correspondence obtained by The Daily Wire and confirmed by multiple federal employees. 
A FEMA supervisor told workers in a message to “avoid homes advertising Trump” as they canvassed Lake Placid, Florida to identify residents who could qualify for federal aid, internal messages viewed by The Daily Wire reveal. The supervisor, Marn’i Washington, relayed this message both verbally and in a group chat used by the relief team, multiple government employees told The Daily Wire. 

The government employees told The Daily Wire that at least 20 homes with Trump signs or flags were skipped from the end of October and into November due to the guidance, meaning they were not given the opportunity to qualify for FEMA assistance.

Quote:General Michael Flynn joined Steve Bannon, following President Trump’s massive victory in the 2024 presidential election on Tuesday.

Both of these men surviving repercussions of an elaborate plot to take down President Trump before he entered office.  The plot was hatched by top members of the Obama regime, including Barack Obama himself. Obama has the great distinction of being the first US president to actively spy on and attempt to bring down his successor. This is who Obama is.

Barack surrounded himself with loyal and dishonorable partisans like FBI Director James Comey, CIA Director John Brennan, and DNI James Clapper. These men committed horrendous acts in their attempts to overthrow the democratically elected president.

General Flynn on Wednesday, warned Trump’s inner circle to expect another assassination attempt before President Trump reaches the Oval Office in January.

This was the conversation.

General Mike Flynn: Most people in America have no idea what’s called a HQE or highly qualified experts, which are people that are hired. And this administration is going to hire a bunch of people just like Obama did, stick them into key slots, and they’re going to block and tackle every single day. Those people should be eliminated, taken out at the knees, dismissed. Revoke their clearances, take their badges, and thank them for their service. They’re done. That has to happen literally on the Friday of Trump taking over.

…Steve, we’ve seen this movie. You and I have been part of it. We’ve been victims of it, and we do not have to re-live the scenes. We can eradicate a lot of this nonsense by being prepared for what we know the enemy is going to do.

Right now, I use that word enemy precisely because had Trump lost last night, he’d be in prison.

He’d be in prison on the 26th of November. His family and business enterprise would be destroyed. Guys like Elon Musk would be targeted. They’d come after you.

They’re already coming after me. So, these are all things that we can’t sit here and pretend like, well, we’re going to be the nice guys. We will be effective with the use of the rule of law.

We’ll do it properly, but accountability must happen. I’m looking at the world of social media information and intelligence …this is my world.

I have a lot of people that I’m still in contact with inside and outside the government, as well as overseas, that want to see Trump succeed. They want to make sure that he has the right team of people around him, and they definitely want people to be held accountable.

Comey comes out recently, and he starts talking about what Trump is going to do to the DOJ and the FBI.

You’re damn right, Jim Comey! You committed crimes against this country. You committed treason as far as I’m concerned. Never mind cutting my legs out. Guys like him, Obama, and others, did so much damage to our country. That’s why I tag Obama with, “Sorry, not this time. Fool us once, shame on us. Try to fool us again, shame on you.”

You can tell from Obama’s tone and message the last couple of days, these people are up to no good. I hate repeating myself on this, but it has to said, had Trump lost, it would have been, Katie bar the door.

They would have been salivating to throw leading Trump supporters in jail, or worse.

If we had lost yesterday, they already had that 168-page report was a superseding indictment. Jack Smith was going to walk in a court and file against multiple people and file more charges against President Trump and take two or three years to get a rigged jury in DC and send President Trump to a federal prison for 20 years. It’s obvious.

Now, today, Jack Smith is talking about unwinding his office. Hey, Jack, unwind all you want… We’re coming after you. I want to go through the angles of attack. The CIA…the FBI, the DOJ? You must start with some motivating force first. Start with one of these organizations, rip it apart, and then move onto the next.

I’ll tell you. I think that the person behind this, the tactical commander of all this, is John Brennan. I believe that, 100%.

I classify John Brennan as one of the most evil people on the planet, he is the tactical commander. Obama is still in the play, as are multiple globalist characters.


Top priority, Trump needs to be extremely certain of the security around him. Trump, must feel so confident that the people around him are going to protect him with their lives.

There cannot be any shenanigans with the quality or quantity of resources needed. I don’t care whether it’s aircraft, air defense systems, or whether it’s human bodies.

That’s number one, because they have already attempted assassinations. They’ll try it again between now and inauguration. That, to me, is job number one and It’s up to Trump to stay alive. I mean that. I hate to say these things, but this is where our country is.

Number two, the people that Trump brings around him have got to be warriors that are ready to go after the government and truly reform. I appreciate Elon Musk’s idea of a government efficiency task force. I believe that there are going to be requirements for entire departments like Millei in Argentina. We have got to get rid of entire departments and organizations!

The work is just beginning…

Good movie IMO Submarine warfare

A Trump Lawyer is covering what and should be done to the swamp critters in the DOJ and how so many of the American citizens were wronged by government lawfare. I do hope the political crooks are outed and legally burned..

Looks like a very rare BBC documentary series unseen since 1975 with a young David Attenborough just surfaced, in restored quality.



Travelers' stories have long fueled beliefs in the existence of dragons, giants, sea monsters, mermaids, and magical unicorns in distant corners of the world. David Attenborough investigates these legends to uncover the truth.
