  Zelenskyy on Ropes – Ukranian Regime Grabs More Authoritarian Power Then Backtracks When Protests Erupt

  July 29, 2025 | Sundance | 168 Comments

  The terms Ukraine and government corruption are synonymous regardless of who is funding the schemes.  After Volodymyr Zelenskyy grabbed more power by stripping two key anti-corruption agencies, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAP), of their independence, protests erupted.

  European leaders immediately noticed the intent of the power move and threatened Zelenskyy with a withdrawal of support. The current dictatorship of Zelensky and his small team then quickly reversed course.  However, the damage is done, and once again Ukranian corruption is center stage.

  

  It doesn’t matter how much western intelligence agencies and pro-Ukraine western govt officials try to hide the nature of the duck represented by Zelenskyy by calling him a swan, eventually the quacking returns – the mask drops.

  UKRAINE – […] Some also cautioned that the agitation could spark a popular uprising like the one that toppled then-President Viktor Yanukovych in 2014. “We are now in the face of the most dangerous development in all the years since Maidan,” wrote Sevgil Musayeva, editor-in-chief of the Ukrainska Pravda newspaper. And like others, she hazarded that Zelenskyy’s powerful Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak was behind the move, amid signs that NABU is preparing cases against presidential insiders.

  Eventually, with public uproar mounting, Ukraine’s president bowed to the pressure and agreed to restore the independence of the agencies — a new law turning back the clock is meant to be voted on Thursday.

  Among the insiders currently under investigation are former Deputy Prime Minister Oleksiy Chernyshov and former Deputy Head of the Office of the President Rostyslav Shurma. Shurma was dismissed last year, after it emerged his brother was receiving green subsidies from the Ukrainian government for solar plants operating in Russian-occupied Donbas. Coincidentally, Shurma’s Munich home was raided by NABU investigators and German police in mid-July.

  “It is critical not to lose the unity. To listen to people, to have dialogue, and so on,” Zelenskyy told reporters at a press briefing on Friday, explaining his about-face and consequent decision to restore the independence of the agencies in question.

  QUACK!

  […] some civil society leaders think targeting the agencies is a sign that Zelenskyy and his clan-like group of aides are starting to panic about his poor polling numbers. As it stands, his chances of winning the next election, when it is eventually held, appear remote, with former armed forces commander General Valery Zaluzhny, who Zelenskyy fired after clashing over war strategy, seen as most likely to get elected.

  […] The street protests in Ukraine have put Zelenskyy on notice, and they’re an indication that patience is wearing thin. (read more)

  Everywhere you travel in Europe the one constant amid the ordinary working-class is their knowledge that Ukraine is a bastion of political corruption. The summer coastline of Europe is full of Ukrainian govt officials and very wealthy Ukranian businessmen spending money, a lot of money, that everyone knows is coming from USA and European subsidy.

  Visible Ukraine corruption is a joke amid those who cannot afford pretending and those in the service industries in the vacation resorts all along the European coast.

  Making it all worse, is the in-your-face aspect of it very visible from the Ukrainians staying in luxury hotels, villas and opulent residences while sneering through their designer sunglasses. “Meh, or she, is Ukrainian,” is the simple response to the rudeness when noted.

  There may be no love for Vladimir Putin within the muscle memory of some older populations within some former Soviet states.  However, amid the working-class and the portion of the younger generation self-inoculated from western propaganda, opinion of Zelenskyy is even lower.

  Eastern European support for the Zelenskyy regime is akin to U.S. support during the Biden regime. The pretending exists in media and government officials’ proclamations only.

  Don’t kid yourself, the politicians know it.

  Absolutely Not – Senators Graham and Cornyn Ask DOJ to Appoint Special Counsel to Investigate President Obama and Intelligence Weaponization Against Trump

  July 24, 2025 | Sundance | 142 Comments

   ~Understanding Silos 101~

  Senator Lindsey Graham (Judiciary Committee) and Senator John Cornyn (SSCI) are requesting Attorney General Pam Bondi to appoint a special counsel to look into the Obama administration’s weaponization of the U.S. Intelligence Community to target Donald Trump with fabricated smears and false evidence using a fraudulent Russia connection.

  This should be an immediate hard no for a few reasons.  Number one, the special counsel process is where investigations go to die intentionally as a design of the legislative branch defense process.  Second, the special counsel would not have cross-silo access to exfiltrate information unless it was accompanied by very specific Presidential authority.  It just will not work.

  

  [SOURCE]

  The intelligence community information that exposes the plot will be found in very distinct ‘silos’, essentially the intelligence agencies that house the information.  Additionally, inside each of the silos there is a formal and informal process to designate that information based on its internally defined national security value.

  An example of silo retention can be found in the issue of the FBI housing information in “prohibited access” files.  These files are not even discoverable by most internal search efforts.

  Within the Sentinel system there are “Restricted Access” files that are used to control who can view the file information (sources and methods etc.).  The FBI or investigative official (think authorized special counsel) can see the file but cannot access the information within it without a higher clearance level.  In these files the Special Counsel can request access and then review.  However, recently people discovered there are “Prohibited Access” files that makes the file invisible to both outside and inside searches or queries and are exclusively controlled by the FBI Director and FBI Deputy Director.

  This is an example of a sub-silo (secret file keeping) within a distinct silo (FBI, Sentinel system).  A special counsel would never discover the “prohibited” files, because there’s no way from outside the system to find it.

  It’s a little complicated but DNI Tulsi Gabbard has been finding, declassifying and releasing these ‘prohibited access’ types of information, because as Director of National Intelligence -her clearance and position- allow her to gain full administrative level access to the entire metadata of IC information.

  Tulsi can essentially log into all of the 18 intelligence agencies and review everything in the data storage system.  A special counsel, regardless of authority, cannot do this.  President Trump can demand full administrative access for himself and so can DNI Tulsi Gabbard.  The rest of the silo administrators can only see the information inside their silo.

  This limited access issue is how the intelligence agencies hide information.  They rely on the inability of external reviewers to see the full scope and then cross reference to all other silos using the same terminology, data points and search sequences.

  EXAMPLE – Making up an operational name like “Zero Footprint“, when DNI Tulsi Gabbard is looking at that operation, she can see the full scope of information related to Zero Footprint as the information goes from the White House (finding memo) to the CIA, to the State Dept, to the Pentagon, to the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), possibly to the Joint Chiefs and then beyond to international partners (whole or part information shared).  DNI Gabbard can see the entire continuum, cross reference each step in the process, see who handled the organization, communication, logistics, assignments and track each process, which enables her to map the inputs and outcomes along with the timeline.  She can even see the briefings (or lack therein) to the Gang of Eight or PDB as they are recorded.

  A special counsel has nowhere near this capacity.

  In the example above, the research required to find, extract, cross-reference, organize and then assemble the totality of all information related to such a large intelligence operation (fyi, Zero Footprint was real), takes a lot of time and effort.  Tulsi Gabbard is able to designate very specific aides to assist in this process, but the demand on her time is extreme even with help.

  DNI Gabbard recently told Fox News (video below) she was/is using AI as a tool to do autonomous spider crawls through the various silos looking for information that pertained to specific points, phrases, times, dates and people within the 18-agency silo system.  Hundreds of thousands of “return positive” files must then be sifted and reviewed for connection to the participants, and again timelines become the key.  This is a big shift in the use of AI data search engine capability within the national security information space; however, it is exactly what I have been talking about for the past several years as I traveled back and forth to DC.

  Now, keep in mind what I am describing above is “non-public” information.  If you want to really understand the insanity of how the silos operate, you need to accept the same filing and hiding system exists even within public information.   The congressional staff don’t even know what the other congressional staff are doing with information from within two different committees, like the Senate Judiciary Committee (FISC oversight) and the Senate Homeland Security Committee (DOJ-NSD), or Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (FBI – Cointel).

  In essence, there is little to no information sharing within the silo process, even within the guys on the “same team,” and making matters worse sometimes a research team can gain information that is much more pertinent to the other guys looking at similar issues from within another silo.  Discovering this is beyond frustrating; however, it does explain how independent researchers who share on open-source crowd sharing platforms can walk down a research trail much faster.

  Bottom line, a Special Counsel is an exercise in futility, unless that special counsel has the same review and extraction capability as President Trump and/or DNI Tulsi Gabbard.

  The best option is a team of investigators within Tulsi Gabbard’s office to continue the digging and connecting the information; then share the discoveries with DOJ officials.  Previously, I said a small group within the National Security Council might also be able to deliver a similar outcome.

  Lastly, a tip-line allowing the private sector crowdsourcing to push puzzle pieces toward the research team might also be a big help.

  DOJ Announces Formation of “Strike Force to Assess ODNI Evidence” Against Former Intel Officials

  July 23, 2025 | Sundance | 190 Comments

  Main Justice has announced the formation of a DOJ strike force to assemble and assess the evidence provided by Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, against former intelligence and government officials.

  This will require the DOJ to take a new approach, extracting information from multiple silos and then overlaying context to the content therein.

  That’s essentially the new approach that DNI Gabbard has taken to break down the silo defenses, and this is the first time since I’ve been outlining how they self-protect that someone (DNI) has actually done the extracting and cross-referencing.

  Dept of Justice – WASHINGTON – Today, the Department of Justice announced the formation of a Strike Force to assess the evidence publicized by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and investigate potential next legal steps which might stem from DNI Gabbard’s disclosures.

  This Department takes alleged weaponization of the intelligence community with the utmost seriousness.

  Upon the formation of the Strike Force, Attorney General Pamela Bondi stated:

  “The Department of Justice is proud to work with my friend Director Gabbard and we are grateful for her partnership in delivering accountability for the American people. We will investigate these troubling disclosures fully and leave no stone unturned to deliver justice.” (LINK)

  Don’t underestimate how radical and challenging this type of an approach is going to be.

  OIG Michael Horowitz never could attempt it (not authorized), SC John Durham was not permitted to do it (not authorized); the House Select Sub-Committee on Govt Weaponization ran away with hair on fire at even the suggestion of doing it (ask me how I know), and no modern internal investigative unit has ever been allowed to extract national security information from multiple IC institutions, and review it in context.

  The DC intel silos are built so their lack of sharing creates a natural defense mechanism; there is no cross-reference capability.  DNI Tulsi Gabbard has the unique ability -due to her position- of reaching into each IC silo regardless of their effort to stop her.  That’s what has led to this point.

  If the DOJ is successful, things could change; but that’s a very big ‘if’.

  The entire mechanism of the USIC, led by defenses from the Senate Intel Committee (Cotton), will do everything to stop any internal extraction and review of their silo information.  “National security” claims will run rampant.  This will be a heavy lift requiring Executive Office support and coordination at every level.

  If you want to understand how difficult this type of thing is, listen to this:

  Counter Attack – New Intelligence Authorization Act Seeks to Curb Power of DNI

  July 20, 2025 | Sundance | 418 Comments

  The response from Chairman Tom Cotton and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence to the action of DNI Tulsi Gabbard was predictable.

  The SSCI has now framed the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 [LINK] to modify the “responsibilities and authorities of the Director of National Intelligence.” [Section 402]

  

  [SOURCE – Sec 402 LINK]

  We knew this was coming.  The Intelligence Community does not like rogue actors amid their ranks, especially if those people have cross-silo access.  The silo system is designed to protect the Deep State.  Any entity who can cross reference the inserted information becomes a risk to the enterprise.

  Senator Cotton cannot directly oppose Tulsi Gabbard without exposing himself.  Thus someone, not the SSCI, writes the legislative changes to the Intelligence Community rules and procedures and Tom Cotton simply advances them.  That’s the way DC operates.

  

  [TWEET LINK]

  Additionally, Chairman Cotton does not want the DNI to investigate or generate its own intelligence.  Cotton demands the ODNI just accept and regurgitate the intelligence Tulsi Gabbard would be given by the other agencies; no independent review of analysis permitted.  All of these actions push the Intelligence Community power center back into the CIA and away from the prying eyes of the DNI.  That’s the SSCI motive.

  WASHINGTON DC – A top Republican senator is proposing a sweeping overhaul of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, slashing the workforce of an organization that has expanded since it was created in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks.

  Under a bill by Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas, the chair of the Intelligence Committee, the ODNI’s staff of about 1,600 would be capped at 650, according to a senior Senate aide familiar with the proposed legislation.

   

  ODNI’s workforce was about 2,000 in January, but National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard has already overseen a reduction of about 20% as part of the Trump administration’s drive to shrink the federal workforce. The reduction in the staff Gabbard oversees could weaken her role in the intelligence bureaucracy.

  […] The attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, exposed a failure to share information across spy agencies with catastrophic results. As a result, Congress established the ODNI to oversee all of the country’s 18 intelligence services, including the CIA, and manage bureaucratic turf wars from a complex outside Washington, D.C.

  What started as a relatively small office under the national intelligence director in 2005 has expanded over the last 20 years to include in-house analysis teams and centers focused on counterterrorism and counterintelligence. Cotton has described the ODNI as a bloated bureaucracy that should return to its original mission of coordinating the work of other spy agencies instead of producing its own reports and duplicating other agencies’ efforts.

  “Congress in no way wanted yet another unruly bureaucracy layered on top of an already bureaucratic intelligence community,” Cotton said at Gabbard’s confirmation hearing in late January. “Unfortunately, 20 years later, that’s exactly what the ODNI has become.”

  Gabbard herself expressed support for downsizing the ODNI’s workforce at the hearing, saying she would work with Cotton and other lawmakers to eliminate “redundancies and bloating.” (read more)

  In the lead up to the election I outlined what the DNI could do with untapped power already given to the office.  DNI Tulsi Gabbard has been following a path close to that outline.  Now, we see Washington DC responding to that affirmed power structure and actively working to neuter the DNI.  A very predictable outcome.

  The only intelligence silo more corrupt than the CIA is the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence that oversees it.

  Director Gabbard Explains Her Motive

  July 19, 2025 | Sundance | 518 Comments

  Tulsi Gabbard does an excellent job explaining exactly why the information about who constructed the Trump-Russia collusion narrative needs to be in the spotlight.  In this interview DNI Tulsi Gabbard outlines how damaging it is to our constitutional republic when we allow systemic corruption to go unaddressed.

  Many in Washington DC do not like Tulsi Gabbard for exactly the reasons she explains in this interview.  Her motives to release all the information are the opposite of former AG Bill Barr who wanted to see it remain hidden.  WATCH:

  .

  Bound by no other agenda, DNI Tulsi Gabbard is doing something very few people have the fortitude to continue doing.  Listen carefully to her words because they have been backed up by action.

  What people do speaks so loudly, often we cannot hear a word they are saying.  In this example, her words and actions are exactly the same.  Let’s hope Attorney General Pam Bondi is influenced by Tulsi Gabbard.

The leather house moccasins with leather soles I purchased https://blogs.lotterypost.com/jap69/2024/11/new_leather_house_moccasins_not_broken_in.htm  became more  slippery the more I wore them. Slid across carpet and smooth flooring when I wanted to push or pull a chair in or out. Also was concerned about slipping on floor and falling.

So I purchased a rubber soling sheet to resole the moccasins.       

I cut the soling sheet leaving a little extra around the moccasin soles. Use E6000 adhesive according to directions and applied the soling sheet. Set moccasins on top of folded cloth thick enough to conform to shape of the moccasin soles. Added weight on top and let set for 24 hours. Took them after glue set and trimmed the new soling flush with where glue ended on edge of sole.

Works great. No slip or sliding now. I also like the thin rubber soling [ 1.2 mm thick ] which keeps a low profile on the moccasin soles. Do not even see the new soling while standing which keeps the moccasin appearance. 

Have them on right now.  

Was watching a you tube short the other night. All of a sudden my screen went black with sound still playing for awhile and then nothing. I could not figure out what happen. I fiddled with keys on my keyboard for 2 days. Once in awhile a blue buffering would do its thing for a few second.

I turned off the computer and turned it back on thinking it would reset the screen. Which it did not. I did notice when I shut it off I could turn the computer back on by hitting the control key but it still came up black.

I turned computer off last night and when I got up I noticed that it turned on by itself. I fiddled with it for a few hours and then left it for awhile. Sat back down and fiddled with it some more.

I do not know why I thought of it but I decided to press down on CTRL key holding it and hit computer shut off button at same time. Well that shut off the computer. I hit control key and it would not turn on. So I hit the on off button which turned computer back on and showing a lit up home screen 

Had to sign in which I did and was back on the internet. Let all the online stuff load and then clicked on a web site. I noticed the web site would not load and then I noticed the you tube short was trying to load. Hit the X to stop that and then hit another website to load which it did.

What I figured happen is the you tube short locked up the screen making it go black and unable to turn computer off with the on off button. Probably trying to load a short before the previous short was still on. 

Jammed that screen up tighter than a gnats ass to a rain barrel.

I am not computer literate but I goterdone.
