Thursday back in South Florida, a day after limits for the National Institutes of Health made headlines, it was the fear of food drying up and a prohibition on fishing in waters of Florida Bay that took center stage.

Charter guides received a message from the National Park Service this week informing them that they are not permitted to take clients fishing in Florida Bay until the feds get back to work. That means that more than 1,100 square miles of prime fishing is off limits between the southern tip of the mainland to the Keys until further notice.

The closing affects not only fishing guides, but anyone with a license to conduct business in the park, including tour operators and paddling guides — anyone with a Commercial Use Authorization permit, said Dan Kimball, superintendent of Everglades and Dry Tortugas national parks.

Biscayne National Park is also off limits. Enforcement rangers will be on duty, Kimball said.

A good thing, the problem is that the Reptilians would begin the Planetary Smorgasbord, in which they will allegedly serve us all up tartare.

That is, assuming that they ever left us to begin with. And we are they and they are we and we are all together now and always have been...

We've already welcomed our Feline Overlords. Or so my unimpeachable internet sources tell me, that common housecats are indeed alien recording and transmitting devices. That hasn't worked out all that bad, so far:



The Kilroti were generated by mixing the genetics of the Sirians with the energy of the Ari. This is what was brought to ancient Egypt. As the non-physical energy descended into physical reality, DNA formed that could be used to create corporeal life.

This was then mixed with human and wild lion DNA to form the common house cat found on Earth. The cat was given to every home in ancient Egypt, and programmed to leave at night to report back to their alien controllers. This is why cats to this day have the urge to go out at night. This also explains their aloof nature.

The Sirians incorporated worship of the cat idol into the Egyptian religion to ensure the perpetuity of this method of spying. The Sirians also built the Sphinx as a symbolic reminder of the blending of human genetics with lion frequency.

This was a way to energetically bind future civilization to the Sirians. The Sphinx was designed to face the morning star Sirius A every day. The face on the Sphinx is identical to the face on the Mars monument that looks down to the Earth at the Sphinx.

The original pyramids, built after the destruction of Atlantis, were energy points. They were the same shapes underground as above, making them into octahedrons. At their centre is a tetrahedron. This master shape is the archetype symbol for God-Mind totality. Anything at its exact centre is absolutely protected.

The octahedron is also the shape of the Delta-T antenna used at the Montauk Project. This shape, when energized in the proper color codes, causes interdimensional rifts, creating vortices and wormholes.

I won't link that, so you will have to take my word as an internet guru on that, just like a Republican!

But there are sources I can quote about these alien camcorders:

Are Cats Spies Sent by Aliens? A Deep Examination of One of the Internet's Best Conspiracy Theories

By Austin Considine



http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/are-cats-spies-sent-by-aliens-motherboard-examines-a-favorite-internet-conspiracy-theory

On that thread you will also see other signs of infallible truths never revealed before. Well, not really.

I have also posted on DU the story of how the teenage Obama went on a secret CIA mission through the Jump Room to Mars to save us all from the people eating animals on Mars.

Why am I on this eating kick tonight? Maybe I've got the munchies...

Without looking into specifics, if this is shutdown-related then it wasn't Obama. Republicans are the ones who shut down America. No matter how hard they try to pin it on the President.

I don't think the harbormasters and Coast Guard should have to spend the money tending to mega yachts and pleasure vessels.

That doesn't sound essential to me.

Keep the private, non-commercial vessels moored in place.

There are a lot of other right-wing sites quoting Breitbart, but it appears that the origin of this "story" is the closing of Biscayne National Park in the Florida Keys. The park is mostly water, and with it closed like the other parks, it can't be used for fishing, boating, etc.
