RIP Prigozhin?

The whole Yevgeny Prigozhin affair is very, very strange. Even for Russia. What was he doing back in Russia following the Wagner Group's infamous mutiny - when one of the conditions of his pardon was that he NEVER return to Russia?

His disappearance was fortuitous from Vladimir Putin's perspective. But Putin is nothing if not patient and calculating; and the death of Prigozhin and his chief lieutenants at this time would be so crude and obvious that it's difficult to believe Putin could have seriously considered it, let alone done it. Such a high profile takedown would throw very dark shade on Putin. Something Vladimir Vladimirovich does not like.

Could it have been one of the Western intelligence services? Given his high profile in African geopolitics, and now possibly Niger, Prigozhin would have made himself a bulls-eye for them as well. With the added bonus that his suspicious death would reflect shade back on Putin.

But that raises a question: "How could Western intelligence have penetrated Russian security - which isn't easy - so easily?" Perhaps Ukrainian infiltration into Russia is more serious than anyone suspected? Given the trouble the Wagner Group caused them, it's a sure bet the Ukrainians are celebrating Prigozhin's death.

If... in fact... he really IS dead. There's a question mark there too. Prigozhin is/was a shrewd man, and may have faked his own death for reasons yet unknown.

So friends, we find ourselves in the midst of a modern mystery. A substantial figure at a pivotal juncture in Century XXI has suddenly disappeared from the radar.

We will not see, feel or hear it down here but rest assured a lot will be going on *up there* - in the councils of governments around the World.

Personally, I've kinda' liked Prigozhin. His blunt, realistic assessments and undiplomatic language, in a World where even kids now speak in diplomatese, was refreshing. The Wagner Group's bizarre mutiny and march on Moscow is almost too strange to accept... But it happened. Still, beyond a scintilla of doubt, there was much more going on there than meets the eye; even as Prigozhin's feud with the Russian Ministry of Defense was known to all.

Lastly, the lone female on board, an attendant named Kristina Raspopova, stated shortly before her final flight that the plane, (which was being leased) had a last minute mechanical issue that needed repair: https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/other/flight-attendant-on-prigozhin-s-plane-told-family-of-mystery-last-minute-urgent-repairs/ar-AA1fIO1C

Yep, things change. But some things don't change. And Russia today is still a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.

Update: Moscow has just confirmed that Prigozhin was in fact on the fatal flight:

We HAD Bedbugs

The first thing you need to realize when you learn you've got bedbugs is that you don't just have a battle on your hands - you're in a FULL BLOWN WAR!

Bedbugs are very tenacious insects and they climb the learning curve. You have to annihilate them or they'll come back. This involves hard work and commitment. Fortunately, once you get rid of them they're loathe to return. DIATOMACEOUS EARTH kills bedbugs! But in order to succeed you'll have to be smarter and more tenacious than they are.

I first rea!ized we had bedbugs when I saw something like a brown pill bug, only a lot faster, charging at me across the sheets. I squashed it and it exploded in a dime sized blood stain. It was then I realized to my horror that we had bedbugs - and that was the reason for the red dots on my wife's and my arms and legs when we awoke. We had what I'd consider a small to moderate infestation: maybe 2-300 bedbugs total (for every full grown adult you see there are about ten smaller ones in various stages of development). We learned some things along the way:

1) Forget about pesticides. PESTICIDES DON'T WORK ON BEDBUGS! Bug sprays don't work. Bug bombs don't work. Pesticides only drive them into hiding... for a while.

2) Extreme cold kills them but has to be applied in such a way that none are missed. Heat kills them VERY well. Bedbugs can't stand temps above 115 F for more than fifteen minutes. Exterminators are now using 200,000 BTU heaters to heat houses, apartments and rooms up to 140 F for an hour. Bedbugs can run but they can't hide from heat. However, thermal extermination is expensive and doing an entire house can cost over $5,000. Rubbing alcohol kills them too, but only a few at a time.

Diatomaceous earth is definitely the the cheapest way to get rid of bedbugs. But you have to be thorough... persistent... and systematic. DE won't kill them immediately as it's not a pesticide. It takes a couple days to start working - and it will take a month or more to get them all.

3) You're the bait! Bedbugs love us and take great risks to suck our blood. Many die in the effort. They're most active between the hours of two and five am but they'll adjust their schedule to whatever yours is if need be. You can find them prowling around at any hour of the day or night.

When I discovered we had bedbugs I bug bombed and sprayed the house. But it quickly became clear that while they didn't like it, it wasn't killing them. That's when I realized we had a lot bigger problem on our hands than I first thought. Our own personal hell. Fortunately for bedbug sufferers the Internet has lots of information about how to fight them. After a day spent studying the problem I came up with a plan: diatomaceous earth, mattress covers, double sided tape, alcohol spray - and heat.

Diatomaceous earth comes in two grades: FOOD GRADE, which is the stuff you want. And pool grade, which is dangerous to people and pets. DE is very light and powdery, about like flour. It's made of TINY GLASS-LIKE SHARDS that work their way into the soft spaces of insect exoskeletons, cutting them up and causing them to dehydrate and die. Bedbugs don't seem to recognize it as a mortal danger and once it gets on them they can't get it off.

We dusted diatomaceous earth all around the bed, on the mattresses, underneath the bed and in the bed frame, the screw holes and any crevices, on the headboard, rails, legs and everywhere else. Then I dusted behind, inside and underneath the bedside tables and dressers, along the baseboards, in all the drawers, etc. Everywhere a bedbug might hide. Trust me, they're very good at hiding and when you make life hard for them around the bed they'll move their bases of operation to other corners of the room and bide their time.

We also put PLANT SAUCERS with diatomaceous earth dusted, not filled, into them, under each bed leg and support. This is real important because once you've defeated the ones hiding in your bed the only way those lurking elsewhere can reach you is by passing through it. As much as possible turn your bed into an island surrounded by an ocean of diatomaceous earth.

Use DOUBLE SIDED TAPE around all your bed's legs and supports, on the headboard, etc. They won't try to cross it and will in fact turn back around as soon as they encounter it. Forcing them to go back through the DE they just passed through. What you want to do is create choke points where they'll have to go through diatomaceous earth in order to get to you.

MATTRESS COVERS for the top and bottom mattresses. These are very important too. Bedbugs like to hide in mattress seams - and in the hidden recesses of box springs. Leave the mattress covers on for a long time too because they can live up to a year without feeding; and check the covers periodically to make sure there aren't any holes or tears they can climb in or out of, because they will definitely find them. Also, if anything - dust ruffle, sheet, bedspread, etc. is touching the floor or wall, fix that; because they can and will use it as an avenue to reach you.

LIGHTER COLORED SHEETS - to see them better. The nymphs are light tan colored, tiny, and a lot harder to see than the adults - which are 3/16 of an inch long and dark brown. About the size and color of an apple seed. Dark sheets will show up the little ones better. Light sheets will show up the bigger ones. Also, after nibbling on you they poop little black spots. If you start seeing little black spots on your sheets it's a very good sign you've got bedbugs. I went with medium light green sheets which worked well as I could see both adults and nymphs and their poop spots. Dark sheets will hide the poop spots. Also, it's a good idea to wash and dry your sheets daily until you clear your bed of them because these things lay eggs like crazy.

We got everything out from under the bed and put ALL our clothes, bedroom stuff etc. that bedbugs could hide in, into black garbage bags, then sealed them and put them out on the back patio to heat up for a couple hours in the summer Sun. Black garbage bags absorb the Sun's rays and turn the insides into an oven. I measured the temp inside and it was 132 F! If it's cold when you learn you have bedbugs you could probably use a blow dryer on low setting but you have to get the temp in the bags up to 115 F for at least fifteen minutes. Eggs take longer to kill but they can't survive 115 F for more than an hour. The more heat you create the faster they die. If your clothes can stand the heat you can also put them in the dryer on the high setting for half an hour. We did this with our cottons and polyesters.

Vacuum your bedroom floor 4-6 times a week until you've defeated them all. You want to suck up any that might be crawling around or any eggs that have fallen to the floor. Concentrate on the spaces under and around your bed. If you've got hardwood floors it'll make your job easier as there are fewer places for them to hide and you can see them and signs of them better. If you have a canister vacuum it'll give you a good idea of the extent of the infestation by how many you're killing. Re-apply DE as necessary. I used a paint brush and turkey baster. DE is powdery and floats like dust, so wear a mask, but it doesn't take much to cover a large area. Some have complained about how dusty it is. OK, but ask yourself this: what would you rather have to deal with, a little dust or bedbugs?

Even after all this we were still getting bitten - though much less than before. We found a few hiding between the new mattress covers and killed them. A few days later we were bitten again. Taking the bed apart we found a half inch hole in the box springs cover where it rested against the slats. There were poop stains near it. They'd had found the hole and came out to dine. We sealed it with scotch tape.

One night, about a week after the start of things, I was lying in bed when something hit my arm. A bedbug! I squirted it with alcohol then looked around for where it could have come from but I couldn't tell... until I looked at the ceiling. There were two more directly.over.the.bed. They'd climbed up the walls then crawled across the ceiling and waited until we came to bed, to drop down from above! Smart.

Then my wife found some crawling up a table lamp cord! They'd proved to me at least that they plan their attacks and I've no doubt they were going for the sheets that were brushing against the bedside table. I moved both tables a foot away from the bed then dusted the lamp cords and around the electric receptacle boxes too (they will use them as hideouts). Even now we still got some bites - though fewer than ever. We took the bed apart again and using a flashlight, magnifying glass and dentist's mirror, searched every nook and cranny. Sure enough, some were hiding in screw holes. We'd already treated the bed frame and screw holes with diatomaceous earth but missed some spots... and that's where they were hiding. I killed these and we put the bed back together.

Once you've cleared your bed (you'll get most/all in a week or two) the ball's back in your court. But you can still pick up eggs on your feet and carry them back into the bed - thus the importance of vacuuming religiously. If you go a week without getting bitten it shows you've made good progress, but the war ain't over yet. Some are still lurking around, so you need to keep checking for them. If you go a month without getting bitten you've probably won the war but it's a good idea to leave the diatomaceous earth in the plant pot saucers under the bed legs and suppports, and along the baseboards too, for several more months - just in case some are still lurking.

ALCOHOL. Here I need to mention the importance of alcohol. I bought a bottle of isopropyl and put a spray nozzle on it and set it on the bedside table and slept with the table lamp on to keep an eye on things. Whenever a bedbug would peek its head out, it got sprayed. Bedbugs respond to three main cues that you're there: your exhaled carbon dioxide, your body heat, and your body odor. When they detect these they come out of hiding, looking to dine. Alcohol kicks their butts FAST. The little ones die immediately. The big boys take longer - about ten-twenty seconds. But if you give them a second squirt they'll die in just a few seconds. Alcohol works very, very well on the ones you can see.

BUG SPRAY. You can use bug spray to "herd" them. As mentioned earlier it doesn't kill bedbugs, but they don't like it either and will avoid places you spray it on. This is useful in helping to keep them out of other spaces and/or to force them into places where the DE awaits.

About a week went by without any bites but we were still paranoid and took the bed apart once more. Lo and behold, a couple of adolescents were hiding in a tiny worm hole in the underside of one of the slats. I killed these and prayed we were finally nearing the end our disgusting problem. But just to be sure we took the bed apart and thoroughly inspected it weekly another four or five times. By now we were familiar with every nook and cranny of our bed. We also checked any hidey holes around the bed. All told we spent a month and a half in our bedbug war. BUT WE WON THE WAR!

We didn't think we'd ever get bedbugs but we learned better. They're everywhere now. If you're waking up with small red marks, and/or your sheets start showing little black spots, you need to ACT FAST. At the first sign of an infestation take your bed completely apart and INSPECT EVERY INCH OF IT: mattress, frame, inner box springs, headboard, legs... everything. A flashlight and magnifying glass are helpful here. You may be shocked at how many you find. You can spray them with alcohol (recommended), vacuum them up or squash them with paper towels. Squashing them is messy but hydrogen peroxide will clean up any blood stains. Toothpicks too can be used on the ones hiding in crevices and holes. You'll learn to be impressed by how cleverly they hide. And even though it's dusty don't be stingey with the diatomaceous earth - this is TOTAL WAR.

I might add that if any of your co-workers, family, friends or visitors report bedbugs at their homes - or workplaces - immediately buy some diatomaceous earth in anticipation of them showing up at your home. Pre-emptively dust your base boards, especially in the bed rooms, because they use baseboards as highways and hideouts. Most of them stick pretty close to the bed but for some reason some go solo and you can find them anywhere in your house.

I can only assume that those who neg diatomaceous earth are less smart and/or persistent than bedbugs. Or maybe they're exterminators. Who knows? Diatomaceous earth is a real deal killer for exterminators if it's used properly.

The key to defeating bedbugs is to understand you're up against a wily and resourceful adversary who's not going to leave without a fight. A hit and a miss doesn't work with them. The sooner you get started the better because the more there are the longer it takes. If you decide to go with diatomaceous earth you must learn their habits and hideouts. You make life at your place deadly for them and kill them off by percentages in a series of running battles until all of them are dead. There may be multiple battlefields: your bed/mattress/pillows, frame, anything under your bed, baseboards, bedside tables, chairs, pictures, electric boxes, loose wallpaper, lamps, curtains, etc. Your main objective is to first get them out of your bed and turn it into an island sanctuary; then go on ruthless search and destroy missions for stragglers.

So, in concluding this, here are Fitz's recommendations: 1. Food grade diatomaceous earth. Use a turkey baster and a 3" paint brush to spread it around. And wear a mask. 2. Mattress covers. 3. Double sided tape. 4. A bright flashlight. I used a Thrunite Mini Archer - which puts out a huge amount of light. 5. Alcohol spray, which is very good for killing those you see. 6. Plant saucers, with diatomaceous earth in them, under your bed's legs and supports. 7. Black trash bags to set outside, with your clothes in them, in the midday Sun. But only in temps greater than 80 F.

Remember... YOU'RE THE BAIT! But by using yourself and your loved ones as bait you'll lure bedbugs into a diatomaceous deathtrap that will finally kill them all off.

It's a great feeling to lie peacefully in your bed once again - not worrying about every little itch or that you're being silently stalked.

Gonzalo Lira, Double Agent?

Thanks to Ted Gorsline for pointing out Eliason's video. And many other things also.

George Eliason backs up Scott Ritter's claim that Gonzalo Lira is/was an SBU asset:

https://www.bitchute.com/video/IPea2eU1RJx0/

Eliason raises points only a liberal would try to dispute. Mainly this: it's *impossible* that the SBU didn't know exactly where Lira was and what he was doing all the while he was doing it. Thus, Lira was *allowed* to post his anti-Zelenskiy videos.

By the Zelenskiy regime.

Let that sink in.

So, why was Lira released after his arrests and allowed to continue posting his anti-Zelenskiy videos long after the SBU had him in their crosshairs?

To doxx his supporters.

Friends, Jim Morrison understated things... *very* strange days have found us: great swathes of mankind who refuse to see or hear the signs shouting and waving in front of their faces, Jews denouncing Putin for being "a Jew", Freemasons accusing other Freemasons of being Freemasons, pedophiles heading up anti-child trafficking agencies. Even Oprah is now under a cloud of suspicion.

Me? I got a kick out of Lira's videos. He's a well-spoken man and has interesting thoughts on many things. But he swore like a ship's parrot - which put me off. Show me the man or woman of dignity and worth who casually swears.... So I pretty much quit watching his Coach Red Pill Channel. Which he ultimately deleted for some reason.

But he popped back up again after the SMO had kicked off, reporting on the situation in Ukraine, where he lived. So, I began watching him once more. He was interesting as usual, and also had stopped swearing as much. His thoughts on what was going on in Ukraine contradicted the MSM stories - which were clearly biased (absurdly so) - and he raised interesting points that in the balance were quite reasonable; albeit overly enthusiastic about Russia's warmaking competency.

Before long Lira was arrested by the Ukrainian SBU, but then released. This was followed some months later by a second arrest, and then a second release. Upon which his passport, phone, motorcycle and some money were returned to him. ???

Then he posted a series of three brief videos documenting his plan to escape Ukraine for Hungary - by crossing a border checkpoint. And saying if we didn't hear from him within a day it meant he'd been arrested again. He hasn't been heard from since.

Although it humbles me to admit it, I might have misjudged Lira. I now believe the SBU got to him and he "flipped" for them. This probably happened after his first arrest; but he could have been an asset from the very start of the SMO, although I personally find that possibility less likely. But his arrests *and releases* by the notorious SBU are not easily believed. The question is: was he a willing accomplice? Or was he threatened? Or was his family threatened?

My take on GL is that we need to be careful about putting our trust in internet celebrities. Or ANY celebrities. Some of them are probably working for your enemies. If, as is claimed, Lira's followers were all the while being doxxed by tptb, it's a warning to the wise just how crafty tptb can be.

PS, Since posting this article YouTube has gassed Scott Ritter's channel.

The Wind Whines, "Hitler"

After all the Jews are in their houses
And night visions are crowding their heads
They can hear jackboots
Marching down their streets
Coming for them in their beds

And the news whines, "Hitler"

The tv is wearily heaping
Up the broken pieces
Of yesterday's lies
Somewhere a Jew is weeping
Somewhere a Jew still cries

And the news whines, "Hitler"

(Instrumental)

The shrunken heads and the soap bars
Their aunt's lampshade by their beds
The gas chambers with doors of plywood
Are all real inside their heads

And the news screams, "Hitler"

Will the Jews ever stop kvetching
Of the Six Million ghosts of the past
Put God on trial
And find Him guilty
Saying, "No, this won't be the last"

And the wind whines, "Hitler"

The Slow Motion Operation - 500 Days In

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=p5XkX1ikNUY

It's hard to figure out guys like Col. MacGregor. He's been predicting Ukraine's imminent defeat for almost 500 days now. Yet his poor track record of prophesying has done little to tarnish his reputation. Not to say he's deceptive, which I don't believe. What really interests me is that in spite of all his failed forecasts he still has a fan club. ???

None of the "overwhelming" Russian offensives he's predicted have materialized, the borders are about what they were 400 plus days ago, all the bridges over the Dniepr river carrying men and materiel to the front continue to do so, totally unmolested by Russian attacks. Why?

The electricity is still on in Kiev, Kharkhov, Lvov, Odessa, etc. The internet is still up, the trains still run, the water still pours from countless faucets, the Rada still meets, unbothered by thoughts of possible Russian airstrikes. Donetsk is still being regularly shelled by the Ukrainians... as it has for the past nine years. Why?

Well, at least Putin has stopped prattling on about "Our Western partners".

The Slow Motion Operation in Ukraine is going that way for one reason only: because Putin wants it that way. Why?

Vladimir Vladimirovich appears to be a man who sees the World in terms of years... decades.... Not the next cocaine fix - which seems to be the mindset prevalent in Washingstein DC these days.

Yep, Putin is without a doubt thinking the "long game" regarding Ukraine. Part of this must be about destroying the Ukrainian army and scattering it to the four winds. He's been fairly successful there, but there must be more than that. Is wrecking NATO his real goal? He's had some success there too, but that's still a long way off. Maybe a hard winter in France and Germany will have a desireable outcome. Maybe.

Or maybe he's read and internalized the book "Report From Iron Mountain". A so-called satire - which is anything but satirical - and in which the study group behind the report comes to the conclusion that peace is NOT desireable for a modern superpower - BUT WAR IS. War has many beneficial side-effects for those who hold power... and those who desire to increase their power.

Whatever the reasons for the Slow Motion Operation in Ukraine, there really is no good side in this war. Only various shades of evil.
