There's a good reason we don't have a bunch of 200 year old forests taking up space so young trees can't grow and replace them. It's called oxygen. Old tree's produce very little … young growing trees do.

It's either old trees … or you. As long as the old trees are being replaced with young saplings the earth will be supplied with fresh oxygen, whilst the young saplings will feed on the CO2 that you/birds … well any animal life exhales to nurture it's growth.

So don't panic. Any leafy plant produces oxygen.

Remember Mt. St. Helen. Remember when it took down every living tree within it's path. Well just 35 years later, it's a lush forest once again. The earth recovers well.

Despite Social engineering indoctrination to the contrary.

Ummm…your opinion really doesn't matter. Facts based upon your research and the sauce to back it up does.

Your opinion isn't worth a hill of beans when you come to think about it. Worthless as the day is long. But your research is gold … try enriching the thread with it.

It would be helpful if you feature the name of the person who is causing, creating or developing those operations that are currently in play, subverting the constitution.

We know actors are the bane of morality. We know they herald out of Hollywood.

But just saying actors or saying Hollywood doesn't make it personal. Doesn't give one someone to focus on that is perpetuating the perversions flooding our country from their actions.

Put a name to a pedo and you can take them down. Say actor and all he/she will do is hide behind it and continue on like nothings happening…to them. Because in truth, nothing will. Unless, you get names dates places and activity's that are currently a threat.

History lesson's aside. name them in real time.

If it's Rothschild name them. If it's Soros or his son Alex … name them. Name their organizations, how they fund them, and the harm that has resulted.

People can work with that. People can stop that.

I'll ask nicely one more time. Stop sliding the board.

BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Saturday that European parliament elections next year could bring about a shift toward illiberal “Christian democracy” in the European Union that would end the era of multiculturalism.

The right-wing nationalist Orban, re-elected in April to a third consecutive term, has spearheaded eastern European resistance to EU moves to have member states accept asylum seekers and migrants under a quota system.

Along with Poland’s nationalist government, he has been in constant conflict with the European Commission, the EU’s executive, over what Brussels calls an erosion of democratic institutions in formerly communist east European countries.

In an annual speech to ethnic Hungarians in Baile Tusnad in neighboring Romania, Orban portrayed the 2019 European parliamentary vote as decisive for the future of Europe.

Turkey, U.S. relations can be saved, presidential spokesman says

ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Turkey and the United States can save their relationship, President Tayyip Erdogan’s spokesman said on Saturday after President Donald Trump threatened to slap sanctions on Ankara in a deepening of tensions between the NATO partners.

The two countries are at odds over a number of issues including Washington’s policy in Syria, Ankara’s quest for the extradition of a Muslim cleric blamed for failed coup in 2016 and Washington’s concerns about U.S. citizens and embassy staff detained in Turkey.

“The relationship can be saved and improved provided that the U.S. administration takes Turkey’s security concerns seriously,” Ibrahim Kalin wrote in a column in pro-government Daily Sabah newspaper.

Trump directly warned Turkey this week of possible sanctions if it did not free Andrew Brunson, a U.S. Christian pastor detained in Turkey who Washington has described as a hostage.

Brunson was transferred to house arrest this week after being kept in a Turkish prison for more than 20 months during his trial on terrorism charges continued.

Pope accepts McCarrick resignation as cardinal following sex abuse scandal

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Francis on Saturday accepted the resignation as a cardinal of Theodore McCarrick, the former archbishop of Washington, D.C. and one of the U.S. Catholic Church’s most prominent figures, who has been at the center of allegations of sex abuse with minors and young seminarians.

McCarrick was the first cardinal to lose his red hat in living memory. The scandal surrounding him has stunned the American Church because he was a widely respected leader for decades and was a confidant of popes and presidents.

Soros messing with Potus in NK

George Soros Spent $10.37 Million Lobbying During Second Quarter

Billionaire's lobbying efforts, a personal high, jumped by nearly $8 million from first quarter

July 28, 2018 5:00 am

Liberal billionaire George Soros’s nonprofit spent more on lobbying during the second quarter of 2018 than he has in any previous quarter, disclosure forms show.

The Open Society Policy Center, a Washington, D.C.-based 501(c)(4) nonprofit that deals with domestic and international advocacy efforts that is a separate entity from Soros's Open Society Foundations, reported spending $10.37 million between April 1 and June 30—an increase of nearly $8 million from the first quarter of the year when the center reported spending $2.52 million on its lobbying efforts.

The increase in its lobbying activities can be attributed to the group adding a number of issues related to the nomination of Donald Lu as the U.S. Ambassador to Kyrgyzstan and the nomination of David B. Cornstein as U.S. Ambassador to Hungary, where Soros was born.

The group's three in-house lobbyists additionally focused on a handful of issues related to North Korea such as the Preventing Preemptive Action in North Korea Act of 2017, the No Unconstitutional Strike against North Korea Act, the North Korea Nuclear Baseline Act, and issues related to security sector assistance, North Korea, and Defense in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019.

'Assange's days in Ecuadorian Embassy in London are numbered' – Correa to RT

Published time: 28 Jul, 2018 00:08

Edited time: 28 Jul, 2018 09:45

The days of Julian Assange’s residence in the Ecuadorian embassy in London are numbered, the country’s former president Rafael Correa, who was still at the helm when he offered the WikiLeaks founder asylum, has told RT.

Correa’s remarks came amid speculation that his successor, Lenin Moreno, may soon kick Assange out, probably to be arrested by British authorities. According to Assange himself, this would lead to the unsealing of a secret US indictment against him and his extradition to America.

Moreno this week said that, sooner or later, the whistleblower will have to leave the diplomatic mission. However, Ecuador wants to make sure that nothing “poses danger” to the whistleblower's life, the president stressed.

Is Europe America's Friend Or Foe?

Sat, 07/28/2018 - 08:00

Since Donald Trump took office as US president, a new cottage industry in rational theories of his seemingly irrational behavior has developed. On one issue, however, no amount of theorizing has made sense of Trump: his treatment of America's oldest and most reliable ally.

Since Donald Trump became US president in January 2017, his conduct has been astonishingly erratic, but his policies have been more consistent than foreseen by most observers. Trump’s volatility has been disconcerting, but on the whole he has acted in accordance with promises made on the campaign trail and with views held long before anyone considered his election possible. Accordingly, a new cottage industry in rational theories of Trump’s seemingly irrational behavior has developed.

The latest challenge is to make sense of his stance towards Europe. At a rally on June 28, he said: “We love the countries of the European Union. But the European Union, of course, was set up to take advantage of the United States. And you know what, we can’t let that happen.” During his recent trip to the continent, he called the EU “a foe” and said it was “possibly as bad as China.” Regarding Brexit, he declared that British Prime Minister Theresa May should have “sued” the EU. Then came the truce, on July 25: Trump and Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, agreed to work jointly on an agenda of free trade and World Trade Organization reform.

So it seems we are friends again – or perhaps just resting before the dispute resumes. But the deeper question remains: Why has Trump repeatedly attacked America’s oldest and most reliable ally? Why does he seem to despise the EU so deeply? Why should the US try to undermine Europe, rather than seeking closer cooperation to protect its economic and geopolitical interests?

Trump’s approach is particularly striking given that China’s rapid emergence as a strategic rival is America’s main national security issue. Contrary to earlier hopes, China is converging with the West neither politically nor economically, because the role of the state and the ruling party in coordinating activities remains far greater. Geopolitically, China has been actively building clienteles, most visibly through its Belt and Road Initiative, and it intends to “foster a new type of international relations” that departs from the model promoted by the US in the twentieth century. Militarily, it has embarked on a significant build-up. Obviously, China, not Europe, is the number one challenge to US world supremacy.

Former President Barack Obama’s China strategy combined dialogue and pressure. He started building two mega-economic alliances that excluded China and Russia: the Trans-Pacific Partnership with 11 other Pacific Rim countries, and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership with the European Union. But Trump withdrew the US from the TPP and killed the TTIP before it was born. Then he opened a trade rift with the EU. And he has attacked both the EU and its member states, especially Germany.

There are three possible explanations.

Record Murders Plague Mexico In First Half Of 2018: "The Figures Are Horrible"

Fri, 07/27/2018 - 22:45

Mexico’s next president Andrés Manuel López Obrador, a former Mexico City mayor and outspoken critic of the political establishment - has a significant uphill battle once he is inaugurated as President on December 01: deadly violence in the country is intensifying and has hit an all-time high.

Mexico posted its highest homicides on record, with a new government report Sunday showing murders in the country rose by 16 percent in the first half of 2018.

The Interior Department said there were 15,973 homicides in the first half of the year, compared to 13,751 killings in the same period of 2017.

According to the AP, the record-breaking homicides have surpassed the violence seen during the dark years of Mexico’s drug war in 2011, along with exceeding all government data since records began in 1997.

At these crisis levels, the department’s homicide rate for the country stands around 22 per 100,000 population for year-end estimates — near the level of Columbia 24.2 and Guatemala 26.0.

Security analyst Alejandro Hope told the AP, “the figures are horrible, but there are some signs that are halfway encouraging.”

For example, the growth in homicides could be slowing; murders were up only about 4 percent compared to the second half of 2017. “The curve may be flattening out,” Hope noted, though he warned his forecast could be incorrect.

Hope noted that the northern border state of Baja California exhibited the largest surge in homicide rates, while other states saw declines.

Any one of national influence or notoriety can be asked to be on a board. Company's purposefully woo people like this to be on their board in order to give the company more street cred.

Many times those people are fooled by the founders of the company purposefully because they know the person would not accept the position otherwise.

Sounds to me this is the case in Mattis's situation here.

It's possible he found out what she was up to and was the reason she was outed.

It's a no go until we know more IMHO
