    TSOT163: Governor: City - You Have No Right to Decide Whether to DIRECTLY SUPPORT ANOTHER COUNTRY With Your Taxpayer's Money! A Tale Involving the Usual Suspects

    If there is anything about which individuals should be expected to disagree, it is about which side of a foreign war to support, and particularly whether to support either side directly with your own money. After all, wars mean aggression and death. A naturally organic thing to have an opinion on. And yet, in the Bizarro World that we live in in 2026, a governor purporting to be from the party allegedly about free markets and government being less centralized threatens a local city when it just discovers what its tax dollars are supporting - no less than war bonds for another country - and is considering getting out of the business of being a city that directly supports foreign powers and war.====================================================== Two parts to this episode: The general idea - it is true (this is less researched, but still I believe well established. See description and links below.  The threat letter from a Republican Governor (Abbott, from Texas) saying that for the city of San Marcos to have an opinion on what they should invest in (at least when it is THIS topic) is a violation of the law and that he will take away state grants from them. The thing is, and it won't surprise you given the motivation... he's full of sh*t and is totally misstating the law (on behalf of another nation who doesn't believe in our laws)  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------That said, I'll give you sources in reverse. Sources for #2 above, here's the letter, from puppeted, black-magick controlled Governor Greg Abbott* to the City of San Marcos. * (hey dips*#t, the Jesus you report to love and follow is a false idol in the eyes of your puppeteers (I know, he's under a trance, so this point is probably futile, but I can try. I'm a communicator not a fighter)) Sources for #1 above (the concept broadly)   Breaking the Bonds Between U.S. Local and State Public Funds and the Occupation of Palestine https://www.icij.org/news/2024/07/inside-the-sophisticated-sales-operation-funneling-billions-from-us-state-and-local-governments-to-israel/ https://ladylibertie.substack.com/p/how-to-spot-the-israel-money-machine https://www.reddit.com/r/TexasPolitics/comments/1kn22y0/why_is_my_taxpayer_money_funding_foreign/ https://www.txbiz.org/2025/03/18/solidifying-the-texas-israel-relationship-to-strengthen-our-economic-future/ ----------------------------------------------------------- As to the AI summary, here's a paste of that. Again, not checked fact by fact, but seems to be mostly on the money (no pun intended): Some U.S. cities and counties may be directly funding Israel through investments in "Israel Bonds" without full public awareness, as these funds often come from property taxes and public pension funds managed by local officials. Since 2023, U.S. states and municipalities have purchased over $1.7 billion in Israeli sovereign bonds, with some officials promoting these investments as patriotic support during wartime. Local funding mechanisms include property tax revenues and public employee pension funds being invested in Israel Bonds, which are marketed as secure financial instruments but carry political and legal risks. For example, Palm Beach County has invested $700 million of constituent property taxes in these bonds, making it the world's largest government investor in Israel Bonds. Critics argue these investments may violate Prudent Investor Standards and local investment policies due to Israel's downgraded credit rating (now **Baa1**, below the **AA** required by many jurisdictions). Transparency gaps exist because: - Full donor and investment disclosures may not occur until after elections or budget cycles - Many residents are unaware their property taxes or pension contributions are invested abroad - Israel Bonds proceeds go to Israel's general budget with **no restrictions** on military or settlement use Advocacy groups like DAWN have filed complaints alleging Israel Bonds may operate as an unregistered foreign agent, while organizations such as Not My Tax Dollars campaign for divestment and greater transparency about where local tax revenues are invested. ================================================= Please subscribe and follow on your favorite podcast platforms!

    TSOT162: Special Guest Jenna McCarthy, on Charlie Kirk Oddities (and Miscellany)

    For the first time*, a guest on The Scales of Truth! Substack author and humor writer Jenna McCarthy! AND it's the first full video I've done corresponding to an episode of the scales of truth - if you'd like to see the video version, please go to Substack! https://thescalesoftruth.substack.com * ONCE, Kim and I had a guest on Kimology 411 and we shared the episode, and of course you know DeMarcus from some of our sports episodes. He's AWESOME, but I kinda just picked from family there. So this is surely the first professional-level speaker and writer! ==================================================Some topics I’m not spoiling, but at a high-level we discuss: Jenna’s very cool background. She’s a professional writer with deep and wide experience! Author of over 20 books, full-time and freelance writer for magazines, radio experience, TED talker (I guess that’s how you say that), professional speaker thereafter, and more! Oh by the way, she definitely has made a name for herself through the experience of “being married and not killing my husband, and vice versa.” Tee hee!  Jenna’s 2020 awakening to topics she probably didn’t give time to before then.  A summary of the recent Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing (so judge can decide is enough evidence to go to trial). And some of the “are you kidding me?” reactions of major influencers to evidence revealed therein. Oddities and weaknesses in the narrative of the Charlie Kirk story (we could have gone on for three days on this, but we got a great start!) Some Tease Tidbits (aka, Wait WHAT?) What Tyler’s live-in lover, Lance (LANCE?) knew versus what the overly-descriptive text messages acted like he knew (spoiler: basically Lance knew none of it) How far away from the university was the business establishment that said Tyler was instead THERE at the time. Jenna’s theory at this point (admittedly in a seemingly purposeful vacuum of information). What was available nearly immediately in the media after the Butler, PA attempt, versus what is STILL not available for 9/10/25. Timestamps for sections 0:00 Intro 1:14 Jenna’s Background, introduced by Tyson 3:55 Jenna fills in some cool background that Tyson missed  4:13 You can’t hear it, but here Tyson wishes he was as cool as Jenna.  6:05 Jenna describes how her life was changed, as catalyzed by events starting in early 2020. 16:13 Jenna’s BOOK TITLES are even hilarious… 17:04 Charlie Kirk: Latest on Tyler Robinson Preliminary Hearing, and some of its oddities. 32:03 Going forward procedure-wise from Preliminary Hearing.  33:50 Oddities around 9/10/2026 not yet covered. 48:16 Jenna’s opinion on some of the personalities associated with the controversy.  54:03 Start… of CloseSome of Jenna’s other recent topics and her approach to finding topics. 57:49 Two Questions 58:45 Jenny highlights some of the stuff you can find and where it is.  Where you can find Jenna Her website, JennaMcCarthy.com, is a great initial navigation tool and has great information on her background, and her books. There’s even her old blog here. If you forget her substack name, come here to find it.  Her substack, JennasSide.Rocks. Informative, with a pretty consistent hilarity score!  ================================================= Please subscribe and follow on your favorite podcast platforms!

    TSOT161: WiFis WiFis... Hidden Everywhere - A Walk Down WTF Lane

    [EDITED 7/17/26 - Long pauses removed] First my story of discovery upon initially figuring getting rid of wi-fi in my house would be only so hard. Then the web search engine AI conversations to prove the different aspects of why there really is NO reason these WiFis, Wifis... should be hidden everywhere. Sources:A Reddit thread where an engineer type is detecting a strong signal coming from his roku streamer when he just wants to use a simple remote. A quote from the orignal poster:  I am a network engineer and I set up the WiFi devices in my household around -65dBm. This Roku Ultra sends out very strong signal (sometimes even in the -3x dBm range from from 15ft away!) I don't want such WiFi level near me. A Roku Express owner back in 2017 well detecting the wi fi, which to them is appearing as strong as their home network wifi, even verifying with MAC address. This Voice Remote document that confirms it uses a 2.4 GHz signal.  FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.Operation in the 2.4GHz band in the US is firmware-limited to Channels 1 through 11.

    QROT-203: Is Trump's Willing Naivete of an "Ally's" Known Pattern of Treachery and Deceit a Threat to His Safety?

    Is the President suffering from Stockholm (Tel Aviv?) Syndrome??? Pardon my extremely heated tone here, but I'd prefer it if my President NOT put himself and his country in jeopardy. Especially when he has more than enough evidence to not do so. HOW many times do you have to be victim to an associate LYING to you before you finally decide to separate yourself from them, or at least no longer act in ANY way based on their "information" (let alone in a very extreme way!)? WHY would you believe their intelligence... EVER??? LET alone to then make a giant dramatic declaration as though your safety is at risk in some further fashion than usual, and say that you've told the U.S. to DECIMATE a country if something happens to you??? I mean, wouldn't that always be an implied reaction? Do you understand the incentive you have given to the same LIARS who've given you bad "intelligence" over and over??The same regime that OVER and OVER has practically said "F&#K YOU" to each and EVERY one of your attempts to save life, property, and sovereignty in the Middle East? The same regime run by fundamentalists of a country whose main religion already technically believes Jesus Christ is a fraud! PULL. YOUR. HEAD. OUT. MISTER. PRESIDENT!! Rely ONLY on your OWN nation's intelligence, and even THEN be skeptical before practicing brinksmanship. Before it costs the world a pivot that we will not recover from for decades!  At this point, let's be honest... impeachment is incredibly reasonable. Of course the issue is that he's scared away and pushed out many of the people who would be the genuine leaders of a reform, MAGA, movement. So, thanks to the guy now worthy of impeachment, if we do impeach him, there is no one to take up the spirit of the MAGA movement.=================================================SOME RELATED EPISODES:QROT-199: A Beloved Actor Expresses His Proper Moral OutrageQROT-198: Assassin's "CUBA" ties.

    TSOT159: WEF Admission - Covid Era Acquiescence to "UNIMAGINABLE" Restrictions a Great Development

    A look at an admission I found from reading the Tenpenny book I've been mentioning. The Universe-Class criminals that are the WEF, using soft language to thinly veil their satisfaction about how billions allowed the Covid restrictions, due to how well that affects prospects of their future control. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "There have been significant developments in last five to seven years on social, environment and technology fronts that could help realise “My Carbon” . . .Specifically, to mention three developments in this context:1. COVID-19 was the test of social responsibility – A huge number of unimaginable restrictions for public health were adopted by billions of citizens across the world. There were numerous examples globally. . . which demonstrated the core of individual social responsibility." [Emphasis added]------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It is suggested to drive a three-way approach to shape this movement.Economic Behavior: Increased costs for carbon-intensive activities and goods. Economic incentives to reduce demand and improve efficiency. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I also go into other tie-ins, as is my way on my longer episodes, so you'll get plenty of reminders of other concepts. Make NO mistake - their soft language of "individual social responsibility" means really nothing less that we did not rise up in literal revolt against these controls. Everyone knows that even only something like 70% of the population took even one dose of their Beta Poison. So in NO way  did we voluntarily decide we agreed with them. The soft language they use is a mask for the real intent (quote imagined, but true) "we will continue to implement these controls and will continue the drumbeat of using them, and we will continue to convince idiot governments not paying attention to their own Constitutional limits, to subsidize and force them upon their populations on the front end."   Example - AI is mentioned as key in this "opinion' piece. Just as in 6 years ago, when idiot Trump committed untold hundreds of billions toward ensuring the Vax and Shutdown control mechanisms were profitable on the front end, idiot Trump is now leading the way to subsidize AI development and implementation to a "Warp Speed" level.  But we've discussed him before... as my Dad used to say, he wouldn't know his ass from a hole in the ground, as long as you distract him in SOME way. Anyway, not that there aren't admissions all over the place from the WEF, but even picking a garden variety one like this reveals their entire intentions, if you just decode it. =================================================SOME RELATED EPISODES:QROT-128: Those with Clear WEF Connections?
