Donald Trump is now selling Bibles. We were curious, so we got a hold on an advanced copy. Surprise, surprise – there have been some changes to the original text. For instance, the Ten Commandments have a slightly different look. We got an excerpt right below:

  1. Thou shalt have no other leaders before me. Loyalty and support are paramount and must be directed solely at the leader.
  2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any fake news. Truth is what the leader confirms; all else is deception or exaggeration.
  3. Thou shalt not take the name of thy leader in vain. Criticism and disrespect towards the leader are not tolerated, for the leader’s word is law.
  4. Remember the Twitter day, to keep it holy. The sanctity of social media as a platform for direct communication shall be maintained, ensuring messages are unfiltered by traditional gatekeepers.
  5. Honor thy business and thy family. Both are crucial pillars of the realm, with loyalty to the family and the empire’s expansion being equally sacred.
  6. Thou shalt not lose. Victory is the ultimate virtue, in business, politics, and every field of endeavor.
  7. Thou shalt not commit adultery, unless thou canst negotiate a nondisclosure agreement. Personal indulgences are overlooked if they can be discreetly managed.
  8. Thou shalt not steal, but acquiring services or goods without immediate remuneration is merely astute business. The art of the deal involves leveraging positions to maximum advantage, sometimes delaying compensation as long as legally—or creatively—possible.
  9. Thou shalt build great walls. Security and sovereignty are manifested in physical barriers, symbolizing strength and deterrence.
  10. Thou shalt make great deals. In all things, the deal reigns supreme; every interaction is an opportunity for gain, to be seized and negotiated until victory is assured.

Now that the SOCUS has ruled the Donald Trumps tax return cannot be completely hidden to to at least some prosecutor. review, let us remind outselves why Donald Trump is so keen to keep it out of the public view:

10: He does not want his wife or ex-wives to know how much he really earns
9: He does not want to reveal how much alimony he pays – and to whom

As you well know Donald Trump is not releasing his tax returns – in fact does everything in his power to block the release.

That, of course raises the question what he has to hide.

Since we don’t know any details, we can only speculate. And so we came up with our own list of reasons.

10: He does not want his return audited (note: this is confirmed by his ex-lawyer)
9: He does not want his wife to know how much he really earns
8: He does not want to reveal how much alimony he pays – and to how many
7: It would reveal how much money he owes to Russia and Saudi-Arabia
6: It would show how much he donated to the charitable foundation of David Duke
5: The Trump Tower project in Moscow is still alive
4: Declared his children as needy retarded dependents
3: Details about a deal to build a golf course in the West Bank
2: His businesses employ a Mafia style money laundering scheme
1: He declares himself bankrupt

Again, this is just speculation, and we have not received any comments from the White House.

Needless to say, all of that can be clarified either way by releasing the tax returns.

As you all know, the health care costs are too high, whether it is Obamacare, Trumpcare, or what ever you name it. So there have been some discussion to tackle the costs.

One idea is to standardize, For instance, the committee for drafting the bill came up with the idea to reduce the manufacturing costs for dentures by proposing just three standard sizes: small, medium, or large, according to the size of your mouth.

Everybody thought that was a good idea. Usually Donald Trump does not pay to much attention to such complicated matters. However, at the urgency of Mr. Trump the committee added one more denture size to the bill: extra large.

Donald J Trump, in office in the White House for just over 10 days, already on the way to become the worst President of the United States at least in our life time, seems to be heading to war.

He made it clear to the Mexican President Nieto in a phone call, that he would send troops south of the border, if Mexico won’t stop the “bad hombres” heading to the United States.

So is he going to invade Mexico? How far would he go, considering the fact that illegal drugs originated from other countries are coming transit through Mexico.

This by the way would also an opportunity to destroy these factories that manufacture these cheap goods for export to the U.S.

Just now he put Iran “on notice” for their ballistic missile test. Notice on what? Invasion?

Iran already dismissed as “useless” threats from an “inexperienced person”

His first military action order by him apparently did not go well as planned, already acknowledging the one service man killed and others wounded, but otherwise claiming success. It appears that there were also 30 civilians killed – that’s more than the 14 militants being killed. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, and the militants apparently were tipped off on the coming raid.

We know he is not good friends with China, and promised that North Korea would not be able to make missiles with nuclear warheads that could reach the U.S. This is “not going to happen”, according to Trump, of course not saying how to accomplish that.

And he started a feud with the Australian prime minister. And we don’t think Trump takes lectures from Germany’s chancellor likely reminding him the obligations of the United States with regard to war refugees according to the Geneva convention.

The friendship with Russia’s Putin won’t last once the clashing interests are evident.

All of this are not good signs, and we may indeed into several wars in the near future. And we have not talked about the civil unrest here in the U.S. that will accompany  us for the years to come.

Many have wondered about Donald Trump, who is scheduled to take over the White House next week. A lot of people are embarrassed about the prospect of a Trump presidency, and his tweets have raised concerns when he continues his ways in the White House. Some high-ranking officials and diplomats already are privately  worried about whether the next president is actually a sociopath. But how do you know for sure?

To help us out we did some research, and here’s an extract from an article how to spot one. The full article can be found here:

http://www.naturalnews.com/036112_sociopaths_cults_influence.html

It was published about 4 1/2 years ago. It mentions proven sociopaths like Charles Manson, Jim Jones or Marshall Applewhite. Of course, Mr. Trump was not on the horizon to become president at that time, so we added some notes in the extract which are marked with ‘***” and in bold.

10 signs for spotting a sociopath

#1) Sociopaths are charming.  They often appear to be sexy or have a strong sexual attraction. Not all sexy people are sociopaths, obviously, but watch out for over-the-top sexual appetites and weird fetishes. *** Mr. Trump owned part or all of the Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA beauty pageants. It was reported that he walked into the contestant’s dressing room while they were naked – and he bragged about it that he could do it. Keeps you wondering if that was the reason he got involved in the beauty pageant business to begin with.

#2) Sociopaths are more spontaneous and intense than other people. They tend to do bizarre, sometimes erratic things that most regular people wouldn’t do. They are unbound by normal social contracts. Their behavior often seems irrational or extremely risky. *** We don’t have any specifics about Mr. Trump’s action, but we have seen him talk spontaneously (“You would be in prison”).

#3) Sociopaths are incapable of feeling shame, guilt or remorse. Their brains simply lack the circuitry to process such emotions. This allows them to betray people, threaten people or harm people without giving it a second thought. They pursue any action that serves their own self interest even if it seriously harms others. This is why you will find many very “successful” sociopaths in high levels of government, in any nation. *** We have quite a few examples of Mr. Trump, e.g. not paying contractors for work they’ve done, offending ordinary people, reporters, journalists, breastfeeding mothers etc.

#4) Sociopaths invent outrageous lies about their experiences. They wildly exaggerate things to the point of absurdity, but when they describe it to you in a storytelling format, for some reason it sounds believable at the time. *** Yes, Mr. Trump saw thousands celebrating the fall of the twin towers on 9/11 (in his dream?)

#5) Sociopaths seek to dominate others and “win” at all costs. They hate to lose any argument or fight and will viciously defend their web of lies, even to the point of logical absurdity. *** Talk to Republicans how they feel today. Of course Mr. Trump should have won an award for the Apprentice show (sometimes you cannot win all)

#6) Sociopaths tend to be highly intelligent, but they use their brainpower to deceive others rather than empower them. Their high IQs often makes them dangerous. This is why many of the best-known serial killers who successfully evaded law enforcement were sociopaths. *** It takes skills to run and win the presidency – also to run the businesses as Mr. Trump did, although he ran them into bankruptcies six times.

#7) Sociopaths are incapable of love and are entirely self-serving. They may feign love or compassion in order to get what they want, but they don’t actually FEEL love in the way that you or I do. *** Self-serving – yes. Incapable of love – we don’t know.

#8) Sociopaths speak poetically. They are master wordsmiths, able to deliver a running “stream of consciousness” monologue that is both intriguing and hypnotic. They are expert storytellers and even poets.  *** We don’t find anything poetic about Mr. Trump, but of course he can talk – and tweet.

#9) Sociopaths never apologize. They are never wrong. They never feel guilt. They can never apologize. Even if shown proof that they were wrong, they will refuse to apologize and instead go on the attack. *** This is somehow related to #3. One example here: the campaign about Obama’s birth certificate. And to blame others with starting the campaign.

#10) Sociopaths are delusional and literally believe that what they say becomes truth merely because they say it! Charles Manson, the sociopathic murderer, is famous for saying, “I’ve never killed anyone! I don’t need to kill anyone! I THINK it! I have it HERE! (Pointing to his temple.) I don’t need to live in this physical realm…”*** Like building a huge wall along the border with Mexico, reviving the coal mining industry, become the best ever job creator ever existed

You may draw your own conclusion…

Well – all efforts to stop Donald Trump to become president of the United States have failed. The Republicans are not in a position to create just one credible leader that would stand up against Trump – in fact they fall in line after just one tweet about the independent ethics commission they wanted to cut back. At least at that point Trump was right to remind the GOP what is really important: apparently the GOP’s most important issue was the plan to cut the ethics commission – that alone tells you what the GOP is currently all about.

The Democrats, of course, were too confident, thinking it’s a done deal. Although, Hillary Clinton won the majority of the votes, but they are not counted that way for the Presidential election. In fact, if you voted one way, and the majority of your state voted the other way, your vote is counted as if you voted along with the majority.

What a crooked voting system indeed.

Be it as it is – we got a taste yesterday at the first press conference Trump held after the the election.

It is just me, or was Trump really nervous when asked about a memo alleging the Russians have something in their hand they could use to their advantage. I mean, if there is nothing to it, and if it is all fake news, why so nervous?

Is it possible that Rex Tillerson, the Exxon boss with Russian ties, was nominated for Secretary of State, because Trump had to?

We have seen Trump backtracking already, for instance about the Russian influence on the election, which he denied first, but now says there was some Russian hacking. First of all, why would they do it if there wouldn’t be any chance to have an influence on the election? We heard the Russians were celebrating after the election. And don’t forget, Trump actually encouraged the Russians publicly to hack the Democrat’s computers.

The wall on the border with Mexico is next. The Mexicans will never pay for it, not now, not later, not ever. So, if he still wants to do it, he has to ask Congress for the $30 billion or so. And that when the GOP has promised to cut the spending. I don’t think a Tweet will do it to convince the GOP otherwise.

Furthermore, Trump has promised to cut regulations, but also says he would increase the tariffs for importing cars from Mexico – more regulations! And if the Mexicans can’t export cars to the U.S. – how are they supposed to come up with the money to pay for the wall?

The way Trump “convinces” businesses to create jobs here in the U.S is also disturbing. What is it called, when the government tries to influence businesses in their decision making (because it thinks it knows better)? I think it is called socialism.

January 20 is inauguration day. I’m afraid January 21 will be remembered as a the day Americans realize they should have elected a better President.

Now that the Republican Convention is almost upon us, attempts to prevent the nomination of Donald Trump a the Republican nominee for the President of the Unites States are now more urgent than ever.

At this time leading Republican politicians (the “establishment”) have come up with a Top-10 list of proposals how to stop Donald Trump at the very last minute. This list has been leaked to us, so we are fortunate to be able to publish this list below:

10. Endorse Hillary Clinton.

09. Dissolve the Republican Party.

08. Postpone the GOP convention until late November.

07. Agree with Donald Trump that the Primaries were rigged, and therefore voiding all Primary Election results.

06. Entrap Donald Trump into a business deal (e.g Golf course in Syria/Iraq) requiring him to become a Muslim.

05. Spread rumors that Donald Trump is implicated in the Panama Papers.

04. Make public aware of endorsements of Donald Trump from North Korean Dictator Kim Jong-un, Russian President Vladimir Putin.

03. Emphasize Donald Trump’s long admiration for the Democratic Party’s policies and politicians.

02. Spread rumors that Donald Trump is endorsed by ISIS.

01. Allow – in fact encourage – participants of the Convention to carry guns, and hope that the problem can be solved “that way”.

The recent revelations of Robert Durst’s bathroom confession have made quite some headlines. But his is not the only one. Over the years some other confessions have been recorded – mostly with the microphone still on unaware by the confessor.

We’ve compiled a Top 10 list of other bathroom confessions from our archives.

10. M Romney: I really would like to tell Mrs. Romney how much I earned, but I’m so afraid of her.

9. G Zimmerman: So far so good – no surprising video surveillance tape

8. C Christie: The bridge closing was really fun.

7. M Obama: He’s really having to much fun with the ladies.

6. J Biden: I really don’t care what they say about me.

5. D Cheney: I really would have been a good sniper.

4. B Obama: It all doesn’t matter now. I can act like a king.

3. M Romney: I’m so grateful not to be in the President’s shoes with all the problems around.

2. R Giuliani: If you’d ask me – I really really love Italy.

1. OJ Simpson: Of course I did it.

New documents have been released this week about a data collection scheme by the British agency GCHQ – working closely together with U.S.’s NSA, named “Optic Nerve”. It fetches images from webcams users used in Yahoo chats.

For more information see here.

This was a fishing operation – and still is. It didn’t matter whether the users were even intelligence targets.

One subject of discussion in the papers is the high amount of  sexually explicit pictures and how to protect viewers who are sensitive to this material.

Mind you, they are taking about viewers within GCHQ, the analysts evaluating this material.

Isn’t that nice that GCHQ addresses sensitivity issues.

But we wanted to know more and dug a little bit deeper. We all know that sexual predators go online to look for victims, which is really a problem especially when the victims are under-age.

So maybe something good comes out of the dragnet surveillance of NSA and GCHQ. We’re always looking for anything that we can actually appreciate what they are doing. [Ed Snowden, of course, revealed problematic programs and practices, not necessarily things that make sense and work well – and which really should continue to remain secret.]

We asked, how many sexual predators they have discovered and actually turned over to the justice system.

The services, however, are tight lipped about it, One problem though was, they say, that many of the data/pictures come from anonymous user IDs, “unable to filter out information from UK or US citizens”.

Now we find that hard to believe.

One of the efforts was to refine the face recognition system, e.g. to detect the “amount of flesh” in a given picture to detect nudity.

Face recognition techniques are generally useful to recognize other objects as well, especially related to the human body. One of the variants they tinkered with, so the word goes, is to apply this to recognize features of a body part unique to males, commonly known as junk. Many sexual predators show their junk to their victims, so it actually makes a lot of sense to identify people not only by their faces but also by their junk. It is for males only, but it is as good as a face recognition, no joke.

There is no public acknowledgement of this activity from GCHQ or NSA, of course, But sources tell us that the junk recognition software identified a user who used the name “Carlos Danger”.

It turned out to be Anthony Weiner, who ran as candidate for mayor of New York City last year. He withdrew from the race when it was revealed he sent picture of his junk under the alias Carlos Danger to some women – after resigning from Congress for a similar affair a few years earlier.

Now we know how the connection was made from Carlos Danger to Anthony Weiner.
