Gabor Maté's "Scattered Minds": ADHD & TCKs - Explore Life Story Therapies

Maté writes about the human mind in relational, rather than mechanistic, terms. He writes about ADD and ADHD and the term ‘scattered’ that he uses to describe this cohort seems to me very apt. It also happens to be the term used most by TCKs (Third Culture Kids) to describe their experience of themselves.

No, Trump’s COVID-19 Treatment Didn’t Come From Aborted Fetuses

“Alexandra Bowie of Regeneron told news aggregation platform Heavy in an October email that REGN-COV2 was not made with human embryonic stem cells.

“This particular discovery program (REGN-COV2) did not involve human stem cells or ESCs,” Bowie wrote. “

Durham’s Investigation Has Taken an Interest A Person Named Daniel Jones — The Implications are Uncertain At This Point

Starting in 2017, the real role of Daniel Jones was to replace the Clinton Campaign as the “outside” operation. I think we are eventually going to learn that the campaign of leaks from the intelligence community to the media in 2017 and 2018 was engineered and run through Jones and his confederates in the same way Clinton Campaign members and surrogates had taken information from friendly IC sources and given them to the media back in the summer and fall of 2016.

The leaks kept the allegations of the Trump-Russia collusion hoax front and center in the media, justifying the continuing efforts of the FBI in 2017, and later the SCO from 2017 to 2019, to pursue every non-sensical allegation of Trump-Russia collusion down rabbit hole after rabbit hole, until William Barr arrived on the scene in January 2019 and put a halt to it all. //

An investigation of Jones and his organization will certainly lead to exposure of Jones’ communications, and all the financial transactions between Jones and his clients and partners.

THAT could go anywhere — including back to Democrat Senators on the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Opinion: The Steps Towards Revolution or Hostile Takeover From Within (Part V, Open Revolt or Proof of Concept)

If there is actually any such thing in a standard revolution, things always kick off with the bottom layer…popular dissatisfaction. We aren’t talking about mere disappointment or even antipathy based on the results of an election or two. We are talking deep-rooted angst that has gotten to the point that a significant part of the population is willing to participate in open revolt against lawful authority. We aren’t anywhere near that point. Without that general popular dissatisfaction, the revolution goes nowhere. Therefore popular, widespread dissatisfaction must be created…out of whole cloth if necessary.

This is exactly what has happened. A series of unfortunate police encounters, the vast majority of which the court system has duly exonerated the officers, has been used as a propaganda campaign to create that dissatisfaction. //

So, where are we at this point? As I’ve stated previously, one thing that isn’t going to happen anytime soon is a Fidel Castro or Daniel Ortega type barreling into DC in a Jeep to take over the government as President Trump boards a plane to begin his exile. The popular sentiment won’t get us to that point in a country where even the poor have cellphones, flat-screen TVs, and air conditioning.

My personal assessment is that intended or not, this recent series of events has served as a sort of Proof of Concept. It has served as such for domestic subversives and foreign actors that might wish to sow hate and discontent here for their own purposes.

Review: With His New Film ‘America, America,’ Director Nick Searcy Seeks out Faith … and Finds It

Now, Nick’s directed a new documentary film on faith, how the nation was founded, and what we can do to secure our freedoms today, “America, America, God Shed His Grace On Thee.”

“America, America…” weaves its story with the help of a constellation of voices, not just Nick Searcy’s. The film does that with many conservative stars, including Pres. Trump’s Housing and Urban Development secretary and former GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson, Sen. Ted Cruz, Rep. Louis Gohmert, former Breitbart News editor-at-large and Daily Wire founder and editor in chief Ben Shapiro, former New Left activist and author David Horowitz, Rush Limbaugh’s radio show wingman, Bo Snerdley, Salem Media Group radio host Dennis Prager, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece, Alveda King, actor and documentary director Dean Cain, and — on a somewhat bittersweet note — contains the final interview given by the late, great Herman Cain.
