Actually he should have stayed,he fits right in with the rest of the group,
Longtime Republican operative and Lincoln Project co-founder John Weaver has resigned from the anti-Trump group he helped launched after admitting to having sent sexual messages to numerous men, with the veteran strategist also coming out as gay at the same time.”The truth is that I’m gay. And that I have a wife and two kids who I love. My inability to reconcile those two truths has led to this agonizing place,” Weaver said in a statement to Axios.
“To the men I made uncomfortable through my messages that I viewed as consensual mutual conversations at the time: I am truly sorry,” Weaver said. “They were inappropriate and it was because of my failings that this discomfort was brought on you.”
Weaver confirmed to Axios that he has left the Lincoln Project, a coalition of Republican operatives who united to help prevent Donald Trump’s re-election in 2020.
“The project’s defense of the Republic and fight for democracy is vital,” said Weaver, who worked on the GOP presidential campaigns of John McCain and John Kasich.
few gender confused are trustworthy ..in business we had a limp wrist embezzle thousands from our business ..many use drugs or demand you provide them services just because ..cakes seem a human right don;t cha know? ..it is as if they are above the law, oh wait Most are democrats..so of course they are.
“few gender confused are trustworthy .”
Your entire post is slander & nonsense imo.
Do you have stats that a majority of embezzlers are gay people? No, I thought not.
A gay man named Ric Grenell was probably President Trump’s most loyal supporter and most effective administrator in the positions he was given by President Trump.
Ric may be the exception. The Gay people “I knew” from my generation were quite adapt at lying not only about themselves but others. They often engaged in financial fraud as well. May have been a consequence of covering up their lifestyle at the time when being homosexual was frowned upon.
I am in healthcare and DSM was and is a list of mental disorders..
up until DSM 4 sexual confusion was listed as mental illness..
as for:” there are good ones and bad”..of course but to refute the
above poster we are in a box of Political correctness..my life has
shown me the Old DSM was correct..risk taking is common in
the gender confused..up to and Including HIV transmission parties of
a few years ago..along with open display of sexuality in Pride parades..
but oh well..homophobe I am.
Ric isn’t confused at all.
Reminiscent of McGreevey and the push to make it an identity issue rather than in this case focus on any predatory harassment aspect
Not to mention that he has a wife and kids who he betrayed with his wandering.
I am amused when I hear “he’s not gay he’s married and has kids”.
…or “I’m an adulterer but I love my spouse.”
Continually living a lie causes so much destruction to innocent others.
if they lie to wife and kids..think what they will do to a lowly business partner
Imagine his poor children. If that was my father, I’d change my name and shun him.
Male a letter, sleezyweaselweaver-bovary….. boo hoo hoo. McStain awaits you.
It looks as though the Trump effect struck again. Glorious.
Good point, so even perverts will be laid bare. That’s my type of winning right there.
That sounds a lot like Harvey Weinstein’s excuses. He was luring women in under pretenses of work, and physically attacking them, and then claiming he misunderstood.
This guy makes it worse, with his claims of gender confusion. Someone confused about being on the down low (a liar) can also be a confused liar when it comes to history, right?
The country is now run by sickos… the media love it… their kind…
Scott, what’s odd is this last minute move of a Trump Team Lawyer in the NSA. Why at this hour? What purpose and intent?
Just as odd as President Trump mobilizing, deploying 25,000 troops in D.C. without a leftist tear… That’s the equivalent of a an Army Division.
WaPo (Propagandist of the Intel Agencies): https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/acting-defense-secretary-orders-nsa-director-to-immediately-install-former-gop-operative-as-the-agencys-top-lawyer/2021/01/16/b3e06a02-5837-11eb-a931-5b162d0d033d_story.html
A WAPO link I cannot read without subscribing to them.
DOD Miller appointed/assigned a Trump aligned lawyer into the NSA.
This a$$ is going to wear this like a badge of honor.
They always fall back on the “I’m gay” as if that excuses adultery and/or abusive behavior.
I think the truth is Weaver knows that how he went aggressively looking for men, is wrong but he did it anyway.
Oh…like the Lincoln Project.
No, mister, I don’t feel sorry for you. You’re not a man of character.
Don’t offer up your sexuality as an excuse. I don’t accept that any more than if a person your age told me that he stole because he was born into a poor family which stole to get by. Straight men cheat too. So do gay and hetero women. It’s a fault of character.
.Get outta here. Go, beat it!
Why, oh why, do we still see posts with twit links? I scroll past, don’t bother.
yup. Me 3
Yes, a pet peeve of mine. No explanation of the content. I scroll past all of them that don’t have the description of the link, as requested/required in the guidelines..
Because Sundance and other reputable posters still have accounts and post worthy information, that‘s why. Until that changes, that’s where some information is to be found.
I made a vow to stay on twitter as long as President Trump had a presence there. The day his accounts were shuttered, so was mine. I have absolutely no use for or inclination to support such a site. I can get my fill of Sundance here at the Treehouse. I too refuse to go to twitter to watch or read comments.
The Twitt posts should be copied and posted to Gab (my preference) or Parler. Yes, you lose some revenue stream, but there is NO censorship. Takes more time, but… if that’s your business, then it should be done that way. Twitt needs to be REMOVED from the workflow.
“The Twitt posts should be copied and posted to Gab (my preference) or Parler. Yes, you lose some revenue stream, but there is NO censorship. “
According to the Gab founder, on a video about his creation, all posts on Gab with even a whisper or threat of violence will be censored from Gab.
Why, oh why, is there such negativity here lately?
For the last 8 or so years, I would spend a fair amount of time at the Treehouse. But now–not so much.
It’s getting better, Vic M. Now that the new system is in place the moderators have time to spend kicking off postings that are personal attacks. There are still some spats but mostly it’s just fussing about what others are posting instead of just scrolling past which would be polite.
Personal attacks cant and wont further an intelligent discussion….noticed an uptick as well…tempers on edge, I guess….
I peruse them with dismay, seeing many lost opportunities to communicate substance….
What may truly matter substantively to one, might not matter at all to another….but disagreements on that score need not be callous…
Would prefer those strings not be removed for utopia sake, but then, not my website….
I would rather we all remember everytime we visit here that, although virtually coming into this Treehouse, we are in a circle sharing our thoughts as best we can and thus we all should resist the temptation to write words that are pointedly and personally derogatory….
“Substance”? You want substance? You can’t handle substance! Sorry, got off on my “A Few Good Men” rant. Seriously, unless and until we can deal with the fraudulent election we just experienced and solve that problem we are screwed as a nation. Everything else is trivial.
Hilarious!!! My family loves that movie and that quote in particular!!!!????
Great point made as well….
Well,everybody here could stop talking about 2022 or 2024 as if they will be allowed to vote for THEIR candidate.The DemocRATS have NO INTENTION of anyone voting except for candidates that THEY put forward.End of story.
you happy biden stole it all are you?
Please explain how my comment would suggest in the least that I am happy Biden stole the election. Thanks.
complain about negativity as if it does not reflect reality..and you ask me to explain?
I believe people are (understandably) really upset, scared, angry, and frustrated and that is manifesting in their comments.
I can provide another one;
I just tuned into Maria B and who else was tge guest. Lindsey Grahmnesty. Attempting to provide cover for the uniparty.
Upset, frustrated, pissed, I would donate everything I could afford to a Democrat against that worthless pos.
I’m not expecting to garner any sympathy for expressing my views.
Waste of money. What every representative, State and federal…bought, compromised or not…doesn’t seem to get is that by refusing to deal with an election system rife with fraud, they will all eventually be replaced by the whims of “who counts the votes,” or used as a scapegoat, no matter how loyal they’ve been, no matter how high their profile. Every one of them is dispensable, including former presidents, appointed officials, high ranking members of Congress and the media who think they’re special and have been promised a place at the table. Liars lie. Anyone who asks you to lie for them, will lie to you. That especially applies to the loyal servants the head liars have brought, compromised or simply deceived.
I’ve heard Scott doesn’t plan to run again. Doesn’t matter. Look for Jamie Harrison to take Tim Scott’s seat regardless.
Sure, a few token Republicans will be allowed, but only the ones who are controllable and beholding. I can write the narrative now for how SC went blue, how every red State went blue and for the subsequent narrative that simply drops opposition parties to normalize centralized rule of global governance through their chosen “administrators” in DC.
History doesn’t lie, but people will lie about history.
Saw that piece of sh!t as well…..had the audacity to make fun of PTs claims on his call to the SOS of GA. More or less said that the numbers PT gave for underage voting, out of state voting and dead voting were all false. Now how does Graham know that ? Did he look at the evidence? Hell no he did not. I think all of Grahams enemies in the Trump voter camp are getting next to him. His attitude when talking with Maria this AM showed a level of disdain for us. Hound the heck out of Graham. Keep letting him know that we know his criminal actions against the USA. His fake fight against impeachment 2.0 is phony….Oh did you catch that he wrote another strongly worded letter about it to Chucky?
Good to know someone saw it the same way I did
well said.
it’s not easy watching our country be overthrown by a hologram and to discover our leaders did nothing and allowed it to happen
Scroll past the negativity, Vic M. It is very easy to leave one conversation and look for the next one (maybe sometimes far down the page) at the left-hand margin. I still get more news and tips from TCH commenters than probably anywhere else. And I check for Sundance-contributions multiple times a day. For those contributions — who cares about comments. They are precious.
Exactly, I look at the amount of comments from a week/two weeks ago compared to now and I’m with the commenter who said Ad Rem is able to filter out a lot of the bots/trolls.
That said, I understand some people are down because of the obvious cheat. All we can do is push forward and live our best lives, as Sundance says. Tell everyone you know to unsubscribe from and send a stern respectful reply to requests from the GOP and CONservative PACS. Help find and support true MAGA candidates for your local and state race, including the 2022 mid-terms (WE NEED TO START NOW!!!).
The UniParty GOPe can’t fight insurgent MAGA candidates in the Primaries if they’re starved of money. Also, I believe a 50 to 75% reduction in E-mail subscribers would send a clear message. All they know is money. Cut it off.
Lot of wolves I’d say, we are used to complimenting minds.
It looks like Josh Hawley is one that is being hurt by trying to support the president and Oann has some of the profiles on their websites and it seems that a hotel that was going to sponsor a fund raising for him has now canceled No killing the left is hurting many people right now so maybe he is one that some people wouldnt mind helping out He seems to be one of the better ones
We should hold Josh Hawley up in our prayers. He really did stand with the American people and our president against the stolen election. How different the outcome would’ve been if the Republicans had stood with PDJT.
Yes. Boycott Loews hotels. They have then in a lot of larger cities and at Universal Orlando. Might want to let them know you won’t consider tham for your vacations any longer.
Respectful? Yes, we must always be polite to the people who have stolen our country, our freedom, and our future.
You get no where being disrespectful. You can tell someone off and hard truths without ad hominem attacks. That’s all I meant by respectful.
Believe me, they are all loser and sell outs. We can tell them we’re walking away from their XYZ thing because they didn’t support the President without personally attacking them which only feeds a false narrative used by them and leftist.
I also have noticed……Love CTH….Praying for less Fear in the Ranks
I was going to post that Leroy but I can see some people are just not from these parts. They got an agenda IMHO
But yes, fear!
Think about this: fear can blind you of the opportunity of success and guarantee failure. Just as well, faith can blind you of any failure and you only see opportunity.
Your faith meter (just made that up) would read high if all you see is opportunity, sunny days, success.
AND, (here is the awesome part) there is a remedy for more faith, Gods word Jesus. Along with his spirit, you grow in faith.
Why would anyone not want to see opportunity?
That’s easy, bring some positive!
A lot of people are hurting right now.
Glass may not be full but it is half full.
Could be …there is so many negative things happening?
Because there are a number of of patriots on Twitter who post nowhere else.
If they are patriots, why would they post only on a platform that is totally against not just PDT but all of us?
Some patriots. I call BS.
I’ve come to the conclusion that twitter addicts are people who cannot read or write so they only cut and paste.
You realize you posted that in Sundance’s house. Who is on twitter. Might want to rephrase your post.
Respectfully.
We are in a transitional time.
Things are being sorted out.
MAGA
So transitional that one would insult the host? Really not acceptable.
Agreed Walt. The twitter copy/paste postings have increased exponentially since President Trump won the election. Same goes for the number of new posters to The Conservative Treehouse.
This type of comment is everywhere here. Winston is correct. We have many patriots still informing us from twitter.
The whole fiasco of heavy military presence in DC is a hurried exaggeration of the Democrat sense of threat, and to a degree amounts to a declaration of war on those who oppose them. It also allows the nauseating Pelosi an opportunity for further grandstanding to mince before the troops and thank them, thus enhancing her own sense of self-importance.
I have a brainwashed niece who lives within the Beltway, convinced that the Deplorables were going to rape her family and leave them hanging in the street on Jan 6th. The military presence now permits her to say that the show of military force demonstrates how dangerous the conservatives are, and why the censorship she supports is necessary. She is stupid enough to actually believe this claptrap.
Once the shabby virtual inauguration is over the MSM will continue to attempt to provoke Deplorables into violence, and also there will be efforts to censor conservatives into apparent silence. It won’t work, but it will take stamina and persistence to defeat these totalitarian buffoons. There is some consolation that can be drawn from the way things are working out. The Democrat coalitions are fragile and their majorities so slender that their party will almost certainly split, and they are simply not going to be able to conceal their various cover ups for much longer.
The pure illegitimacy and cheating within the November 2020 electoral process and the huge corruption of the Swamp’s bureaucracy will bring its reckoning. Unfortunately the necessary resolution probably needs financing by an oligarch wealthier than the great man who has led the United States for the last four years. Everything has changed.
Libtards are stupid people and have zero common sense. They would be extinct long ago if wasn’t for Conservatives to save them.
Where was this niece and what was she saying during the 9 months that preceded Jan 6, when Washington and so many other cities were burning, and violent crime was soaring?
Proud Boys did it????
@Jason Ross
The riots were confined to downtown DC and were ignored by the mainstream media. So, anyone living outside that area were clueless about the riots unless you followed conservative media.
Contrast this to the Capitol Hill “riots” which got national coverage.
Stupidity corruption, and a lust for power and control is what elevated Castro, Perez, Chavez Mao and Stalin.
Just goes to show that our Country has those same human beings within our borders, with more storming toward us, if reports are to be believed…
I wake up each day since the 11/3 election living in an Aldous Huxley Ayn Rand Orweillian universe…absolutely surreal…..no wonder these authors were so raw in their writings…a warning to all that our fellow countrymen can and will place us in a stranglehold if given the means and opportunity….and as always, our youth are the pawns through which oppressive govts seize control…..
During the Obama years, there was a theory floated that there were train cars being built with metal loops in the floor to be used for dissidents….wonder if Obama has instructed his minions…aka…Pelosi, Harris and Biden (in that order of course) to get them ready?????
Did you see cumo and others now say “open up” the businesses?
Obama started this ‘extortion’ of our country and they found it useful now to pass anything.
I did!!!!
Came out earlier this past week….said then to my family ‘watch the other governors/mayors follow suit one by one with Pennsylvania and California bringing up the rear’
…..and then I read at the end of the week that Chicago is following suit….
I have a name for them….begins with ‘mother’ ??????
Speaking of being “brainwashed”, I received this concerned email from an older relative who lives in California about the recent DC events. I suspect others on this site are having the same communication problem with some friends or relatives.
P.S. I’m being sincere in sharing this letter. I’m generally a quiet CTH lurker so i might not say much more about this 🙁
“Darling –: From my perspective, and from my observations, you have been brain-washed so thoroughly that you cannot see the truth when it is presented. I am so sorry that you have been compromised in this way. There is no communist revolution. The links you included below are not working so I cannot read whatever they are espousing, but I am begging you to pull yourself away from Rush Limbaugh and Donald Trump, and Ted Cruz, and Josh Hawley (Mo Senator) who are trying to destroy our society for their own ambition. They are all self serving and have no interest in doing anything positive. Trump is a con-man – always has been his whole life, and has not been successful in anything he has done except to tell lies in a way that gets others to believe him. This he is good at. But running his business – he has gone bankrupt so many times, and has never done anything for anyone except himself. He is trash and not to be believed. PLEASE STEP AWAY FROM ALL THAT FOR A WEEK AND THEN SEE HOW YOU FEEL. But this has nothing to do with partisanship, it is an issue of good and evil, and I am praying for you.”
Is your older relative from California Nancy Pelosi?
Thanks for posting this, Sunny. I feel your pain. I have 3 adult children with spouses in their 30’s that all voted for Obiden. Sad. They truly don’t see Trump as a righteous man. Hard to see how brainwashed they are. Of course, the lack of God in their lives is the root cause of their blindness. When it all collapses, maybe then they will see the truth.
What stinks is by that time it will be probably too late. The Commies call those people useful idiots.
It’s painfully ironic to be lectured by JoeBama voters about the integrity of their “candidate.” More painful when it’s blood relatives doing the yapping.
They really think they have some kind of moral high ground and tell us WE’RE confused and misled. They question NONE of what is spoon fed to them by corporate media and hammered home on their favorite social media platforms.
Sheeple, every one of them.
I hope we don’t get the future that they deserve.
If Hoping is all we do….then we will get the future they deserve ….and quite frankly…the future we deserve. Just being honest….sorry to those who don’t like all that Negativity. But we always have the right to vote…right? We can vote for whomever they chose. Hold me back…..
You can and should cut off every relative that isn’t your parent or a dependent child.
Why have anything to do with people that would destroy your freedom and frankly hate anyone who voted for Donald Trump?
But they somehow see Obiden as righteous?
They haven’t seen the videos of him touching little girl’s breasts and bottoms?
I have done this….
Ask them…name 5 things that Obama did for the American people.
Give ya 5 minutes.
Usually Nobel prize comes up…nope doesn’t count. ..he got the prize-not people.
I have wondered if this is what it will take to clear out the brainwashing: When it all collapses, maybe then they will see the truth.
Nailed it- spiritual blindness;
“because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: ”
We are living in the time of strong delusions. Does that tell you anything?
Trump did not want take a salary. He was forced to SO, he donated all of it. EVERY. SINGLE. DIME.
Obama and Biden got rich on so called government service. How? Where did they create jobs?
Trump business took at hit while he was POTUS.
Obama and Biden used their office to CORRUPTLY attain wealth.
Game, set, and match on your indoctrinated relative conned by a Community Terrorist-in-Chief.
Except for $1.00 which, by law, he is required to take. He has lost millions (maybe billions?) by being our leader while everyone else in WDC get wealthy.
And after his presidency he’s going to take ever more economic hits. No, he didn’t have to run for office. He put it all on the line for the American people. Obiden made themselves wealthy selling the country out. Too many sheeple out there. They never ask themselves how career politicians, who have never held jobs in the private sector, somehow become multi-millionaires. Idiots!
There is a nice article on American Thinker which compares what happened to President Trump to Prime Minister Churchill. It must have been written prior to the VP Pence betrayal, and while I would have named dozens of betrayals from the republicans, it does mention Mitch McConnell. I don’t have the link but one can go to their site and see for themselves if so inclined.
The Gates of Vienna article..America has been coup ‘d is good!
Not so fast, MSM daily brainwashing and disinformation. Facts don’t matter. Continued and enhanced propaganda on the conned, indoctrinated relative. Forward Comrade.
Oh but they will tell you Trump’s business did well while President….all those kick backs…courtesy of their same info/news source……
She has all the MSM talking points down pat, but feel lucky. The text ‘debates’ with my s-i-l, are so full of hate, I am shook to my very core when I read them. The media has done their job extremely well.
This works every single time I’ve used it:
Do you really believe that a corrupt, old, white guy who insulted ALL blacks by telling them, “If you don’t vote for me, you ain’t black” got more black votes than Barack Obama?
Gul-li-bull
Walk away laughing
It takes a long time to accept an important truth: that the ability to have and to keep one’s own beliefs is enormously important to self-esteem, including our own. By negating a particular perception of truth that has brought to others a sense of emotional and intellectual fulfilment, we negate their value as thinking, caring human beings.
When engaging with family and friends on politics, and knowing very well the weaknesses of the Left’s ideology, I steer clear of the controversial aspects of politics (particular leaders, policies , scandals etc), and focus only on the very essence of society’s important goal: to improve the standard of living for all its citizens. This leads to a discussion of what constitutes wealth. Is wealth money, or is it actually the goods and services people hope to obtain with money?
This leads to a discussion of the best ways to create, not more money, but more goods and services. I also point out that, instead of determining that 10 dollars and hour is no longer sufficient to maintain a minimum standard of living today, we should ask what factors have created those conditions whereby 10 dollars an hour is no longer, all of a sudden, sufficient as had been claimed by advocates when 10 dollars was proposed. This leads to matters about why money loses value etc.
I have never failed to hold the attention of these progressive friends, relatives and acquaintances because I recognized implicitly that they too, by their interest in politics, were looking for answers to improve our common quality of life, but that our collective attention should always be focused on the production of goods and services themselves, and not on how much money one has at one’s disposal.
It will shock you ( or maybe not) that people will tell you ‘they had never thought of it that way.’ They will shake their head in amazement, and you will have created an important personal bond with them by recognizing their own sincerity and interest in improving the quality of life for all, but that this interest should be focused on the ready availability of goods and services we all want and need, and not on the constantly increasing amounts of money required to obtain them.
Of course, I know that this particular orientation for discussion completely annihilates the false premise of socialism which is that all value is derived from money, and that the distinction between the rich and poor is that the rich have money and the poor do not, the truth being that the poor are poor, in part, because the money in the their pockets has little value given the needlessly restricted availability of goods and services.
I wouldn’t reply – it takes 2 to fight.
A lot of people argue..just for the sake of arguing and stirring up drama.
Don’t participate. Chances are they will try and find something/anything else to fight with you about.
They fish—dont bite.
I changed to Independent. Gives me middle ground.
Too many people see politics as a team sport. Especially younger generation.
Why do you have anything to do with any relative let alone an in-law that is full of hate?
I mean an in-law isn’t even really family.
Sunny, I bet that relative listens to CNN or MSNBC, I have a few in my family also?.
Sunnyrose. I confounded my anti Trump relative with a staement from the far left President of Mexico, who has repeadetly praised President Trump for his respect for Mexico as a sovereign nation. Sometimes the dems need to hear it from one of their own
I live in California and it also helps to admit to the failings of Bush and company and the money made from endless war. President Trump got us out of war and did not start a new one. Complacent dems need to hear about the corruption in Washington DC.
Good luck though. She sounds tough.
https://nypost.com/2020/07/08/mexican-president-praises-trump-amid-white-house-visit/
“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
I have been very impressed by the Mexican President. He refused to congratulate Biden after the election, and he is slamming Big Tech for banning President Trump. I don’t know all of the details of our new trade agreement, but it must really have been good for Mexico as well as us. He also has been supportive of the “Remain in Mexico” plan. I really think it shows that President Trump and his team showed respect for other nations and what they needed to also be successful. And other nations, at least Mexico seemed to appreciate that. President Trump really showed such wisdom in how he dealt with other nations.
Well that is a bummer….all you can do is sigh and when you next speak simply say you are of two different minds….
Two young relatives like that,…a challenge for sure…but they know how I feel?
Your relative needs to pull away from CNN or wherever they get fed so many lies and distortions. Rest assured, many of us are surrounded by such people, often right in our own households! These same loving, once rational, educated, even faithful people are blind to the actual environment they live in. It might be something akin to Stockholm Syndrome.
I spent 35+ years in Cambridge, MA, and now live in Vermont. I have been deeply immersed with these well meaning, yet self-satisfied, and arrogant fantasists for a long time. You could say I know them intimately because I was indeed one of them before I was awakened one day in April 2008 when some friends, in agreement, called me a racist for supporting Clinton over Obama. They said they were joking, but we all knew they weren’t. Few things have ever stunned me more in this life!
Now, it is so dispiriting to watch them all comply like children with every absurd guideline and mandate put forth, completely unable to have a discussion in which the reality of the virus is properly separated from the horrific consequences of our response to it. They will not acknowledge how few, if any, in their families or cohort have been infected or, worse, recognize that the greatest impact has been among (costly) older and health compromised populations, with clear socioeconomic delineation. And after a lifetime of the world catering to their choices, somehow they have concluded the a one-size-fits-all solution makes sense.
It has all gone inside out and upside down. Just try to hold on, pay them no attention, and have faith that God will hear our call before it’s to late, ?✝️??
BTW, your relative is right about one thing: all this is really about good and evil. The primary battlefield is spiritually above us more than physically around us.
Wow, Cambridge to the Northeast Kingdom. What a transition. I escaped Mass also, thinking I was making outside the perimeter, but have watched ‘my’ state of Vermont too quickly morph into Cambridge lite these several decades. A shame to witness what once a very independent mindset become another liberal bastion.
‘Children’ is right!!!!
Does your older relative live in Rio Linda?
Kind of like what a former best buddy of mine wrote to me. There’s a great meme I saw on Gab. It is a picture of an apple. The top says “This is a watermelon.” Underneath it says “If this is an apple you are a right wing conspiracy theorist.” And that is what they think.
This letter could have been written by my (SoCal) wacko aunt, minus the praying, and if you throw in a few F bombs. And she is in her 70s. Needless to say, we are not on speaking terms.
ahhh yes……. Sadly the know it all know-nothings abound.
May The Holy Spirit fill their minds with clarity.
I believe that requires repentance first.
Living here in California I’m not surprised. We have a lot of wealthy all-White enclaves in West LA and up in the San Fernando Valley who have the mindset of your relative, but God forbid if officials in their local city or from LA County suggest minority housing or homeless shelters be built near them they go into White supremacist and NIMBY mode. They’re “compassionate” towards minorities and the homeless as long as they stay in their part of “town” and not move into their neighborhoods. They’re all hypocrites. I guarantee if a Black family decided to move next door to your relative you’ll see exactly what I mean about White liberals and their real attitudes. You don’t need that relative’s prayers. They need yours, badly!
those are the “white saviors”
they rally for blacks as if they’re championing for animal rights.
white liberals don’t even see blacks as solid citizens and patriots
but objects of sympathy and they have no faith in them only low expectations
shows what they really think.
This is what we are facing. They believe this!
I believe on Whitehouse.gov there is a list of Trump’s accomplishments over the past 4 years. The media ignored, downplayed, or manipulated anything positive Trump did to turn them into a negative. Is your aunt open minded enough to read something without the media narrative attached?
Overnight her a case or two of Depends. She’s going to need plenty once the Obama declass docs drop tomorrow.
This is why I try not to get upset at liberal friends and family. The propaganda is so intense on both sides that everyone thinks the same thing but in reverse. The common ground is we all want what’s best for our country but the media lies has left the truth destroyed. Nobody knows the truth anymore.
No, the left doesn’t want the “same” thing for this country. As a former Democrat I don’t buy that sentiment about them anymore. I see what’s happened here in California once the Democrats took complete control of our state government, and if the crap they’ve done out here is their idea of, “what’s best for our country”, we’re all doomed!
Hmmm …. everything your relative said I have heard from my dem relatives and friends… even using the same words.
I was recently in a discussion with such a relative. Their argument was basically their viewpoint was based on information from news sources they trusted. So I asked if they knew who James Wolfe is, they of course did not. I explained who he was and the circumstances around his crime then asked them why their trusted news source never informed them of this.
Silence.
Got one part right, it is about good and evil.
I can quickly reduce the choices of which is good. Do you believe killing babies is ok? You may need to correct your current trajectory it is 180 degrees off course.
Or maybe why God is removed from the platform. I love to throw that one up and watch democrats get all squinty faced. “What? They never said that.”
That’s why I no longer allow Democrats in my life. If you vote to murder babies, you are evil. Full stop. There’s no debating baby murder.
Amazing how informed they believe themselves to be. Elitism is their MO and they cannot be rational.
He talking point come straight from a netflix story about Trump. It was a must watch for any Trump hater. It must have some sort of binural function because I’ve heard several liberals repeat verbatim what your aunt wrote like it is encoded in their DNA. There simply is no reaching these people. They are bombarded day in and day out with media that reinforces everything they believe. They cannot see anything that is not aligned with that, which they consider to be unquestioningly correct, as it has been spoon fed to them constantly for 5 years by their media masters. How many stupid people have you met or seen, that think they are smart? When liberals see on TV exactly what they have been conditioned to believe, they say to themselve, see, I’m right.
…just wait til that liberal woman finds out that in the future when the “share the wealth” program gets underway and she will have to give her home up to someone when the totalitarian leftist government decides she “has too much living space” that someone less fortunate than her needs.
Leftist regimes always go after the right (meaning anyone in opposition to them) first.
Then they go after the left after they’ve used the left to persecute the right.
Thanks for posting this. So interesting that each side sees the other the exact same way. Everyone is entrenched.
Ask Them if they got all their info from one or two sources?
Wow. So this person claims to pray for you while supporting and celebrating the murder of 70 million babies. That’s disgusting. Why do you have anything to do with someone like this?
Also, I’m guessing they didn’t write that letter – it’s probably something they are pushing to send to your stupid relatives on leftists sites.
OMG!!! Yup, talk about brainwashed!! Honestly, there’s no hope in reaching people who are brainwashed by the left–they believe whatever the fake media tells them.

Your story reminds me of a notice my mother’s church sent out warning that MAGA would rampage through DC neighborhoods outside of Capitol Hill. I rolled my eyes upon hearing it.
Yet, a lot of Black people I know think this could happen. I’m not surprised for two reasons.
First, the liberal media has portrayed conservatives as racist, murderous barbarians for decades. Naturally, they would use the Capitol Hill “riots” to reinforce this stereotype among DC residents, especially the Black community.
Second, conservatives haven’t effectively fought this stereotype. Worse, some say dumb stuff that plays into the stereotype. A great example is Candace Owens calling Black people “chimpanzees.”
MAGA star Marjorie Taylor Greene calling Black men gang members isn’t any better:
So, I understand the paranoia about MAGA riots on January 20th even if I don’t agree with it.
99% MAGA who’ve presented themselves to the public are church folks, aka the people of the Trump rallies.
All Trump rallies I’ve ever witnessed are LOVE FESTS.
Some of the rallies are downright church services.
I’ve never seen any political rallies like that. Where folks are literally telling a president “I love you,” and the president responds back “I love you too.”
A very small percentage of Trump supporters, young men with high testosterone surfaced in DC but they are not the Trump supporters that have presented themselves to the public for the past 4 years.
Frankly black people have a lot more to worry about. While they’ve been aborting and contracepting their way to extinction (not unlike white Americans), the Democrats and corporatist Republicans have opened the borders to tens of million of Latinos and muslims that in the case of Latinos massively outnumber them.
You see formerly black Congressional seats going Hispanic and blacks being pushed out of neighborhoods and jobs in CA and the South by immigrants.
These new immigrants bring a lot more votes to the Democrats making blacks less valuable politically. These immigrants also don’t give a crap about slavery or anything else.
I guess we should ignore how black people talk to each other when they’re being real.
The problem is that when Trump protesters at the Capital on Jan 6… were described as protesters… BIDEN snapped back: “do not call them protesters. They r domestic terrorists and insurrectionists.”
Can “domestic terrorists” be denied the right to protest and assemble peacefully?
Biden is boisterous today but soon he’ll be hidden and then taken down.
He’s got dementia.
Time is not the friend of those who suffer dementia.
I’m guessing they’ll keep him around even when he sits in a wheelchair and let him out every once in a while to blurt out insanity when they need it.
I am a little confused of the military matter. Isn’t it the President who needs to call up the guard?
Why do you have any contact with the niece? This is an honest question. I see people post all the time about family, friends, and neighbors that support the enemy and loathe President Trump and his voters.
In WWII would we have made nice with our Japan or Germany supporting family and friends? I think not.
Remember if people you know actually believe that Trump is evil and his supporters are dangerous. They will be the ones who red flag you or otherwise turn you in to the government or get you fired.
I take some delight in the contact I have with my niece. Twice a week I produce a political comment that I send out to friends and family and I include her on the list mainly because my thinking reduces her to tears of rage.
Oddly enough I saved this girl’s life in the mountains of the African country of Lesotho in the 1990’s, but I have no doubt that she would like to see me in jail for being a Deplorable who admires the President for the stands he takes. Just no doubt. It’s they way they are.

At this point, what do we all have to lose? Just as POTUS Trump said to his black constituents. Go for it. Let the Constitution defend our actions. It is all we have now.
OLD INTERVIEW.
5th of January. Not that old.
JRD, with all due respect yes it is, but for some who have not had an opportunity to view it, it is new information to them. Several liked and appreciated it. Those who have seen it already, simply skip over it.
No worries rld rld, I was also chastised for posting this video, one kindly and another not so much.
Sundance has asked us to be kind to one another. No doubt, these are trying times, but the one thing we can control is being kind to one another here. It is called The Last Refuge for a reason.
More than a couple months after the steel. Not old at all.
How OLD ? Like from the stone age? WWI , mid 50’s? Oh from not more than 60 days ago I think ?! TRUTH IS ETERNAL.
Here’s another one:
https://www.foodsafetynews.com/2021/01/nestle-recalls-more-than-381-tons-of-hot-pockets-for-containing-extraneous-materials/
Where’s the bombshell? Nothing new in this interview.
Bombshell = dud.
War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.
Is all this distracting background music necessary? What kind of twit produced this video?
“Is all this distracting background music necessary? What kind of twit produced this video?”
The usual kind.
Distracting music or not: At this point we should not complain over little things and cherish any free speech that’s left for us.
When the lights go out we’ll see just how good we had it today.
I have been reading up on something. Because – well because I pay attention to credible prophets. Kim Clement prophesied many years ago that Trump would be President. And there will be a time when there would be two Presidents. He also prophesied that Trump would be impeached twice. Two others I’ve found consistently credible have prophesied for a while now that God’s timing would disregard our dates/ deadlines for Trump to be installed in his consecutive second term. One heard “two Presidents, two Inaugurations.” Another whom I highly regard heard that the election would go to the Supreme Court (this was shared at least a month before Nov 3) and Trump would win. Who knows. But I do take notice.
Be that as it may. I’ve been studying some about election fraud. As far as I can tell, if fraud has been proven after the “winner” is installed, then the election is by court order given to the opposite candidate or sometimes another election is ordered. I would like to know more, if anyone else is aware and can educate me. (not looking for reflex poo-pooing, got enough of that going on).
Just sayin. Not hopeium, just sayin.
Here’s a list of overturned elections (none of course is Presidential)
https://www.heritage.org/voterfraud/search?combine=&state=All&year=&case_type=All&fraud_type=24497&page=0
That is interesting, Mtn Cougar, because most Presidential elections are not challenged and the theory of fraud being uncovered after the Pretender is installed has never been tested. In this race, as we all know, there was massive fraud, But it takes time to build a case that can prove it. It is also necessary to have judges hear the case.
I wonder if The Supreme Court now realizes the issue they helped create when they did not give Texas and the other states standing?You don’t always get a second chance, but the three new judges, Kavanaugh, Gorsich and Barrett need to grow a backbone and do their job. They could at least have ruled on the constitutional question of changing election law outside of the Legislature.
75 million or more voted for President Trump and five states were obviously heavily taegeted for fraud. No sane person can be happy with the censorship of conservative thought and the power grab of Pelosi and the dem/marxists. Not only that, But President Trump’s policies were great for the country and our relationship to the rest of the world. No new war! No money laundering for our corrupt intel agencies!
. I avoid prophesy outside of the Bible, but that’s a different story and too long to tell.
Prophets? Okay.
Do you often listen to them?
As a Christian I have often been informed about not listening to false prophets.
The only prophet I listen to is Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
Until the Lord tells me something I pay no attention.
Happy Sunday.
For those interested in the Prophetic, Elijah Stream ministries interviews many of them and they are remarkably in line with what Kim Clement had prophesied many years earlier. Here’s a recent one.
ALSO, if you’ll find Robin Bullock interview on their channel, he was in D.C. on January 6th and you will be astonished at what he describes happened.
Hooey about “false prophets.” God does not do that which he does not first tell his Prophets. The Lord has been speaking to many prophetic voices all over the world and they are remarkably similar.
Prophesies came true in the Bible/Torah….wouldnt it be great if these did too!!!
Jewish tradition requires that if a prophet makes even a single wrong prophesy they must be immediately stoned to death because even one wrong thing means they are not prophets, they are evil charlatans. That is my personal measuring stick for prophets.
That is correct. The Bible states that if someone claims to be speaking by revelation from God, it must ALL come true, or the person was NOT sent by God!
That’s correct about a prophet whose prophecy must all come true, but it is not true that the Jewish traditionalists used this as a measurement. Also keep in mind that many times the prophecy is not fulfilled until years and even centuries later.
Jesus sees it quite the opposite than Jewish tradition:
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing!”
[Luke 13:34] and [Matthew 23:37]
In fact, most all of the true prophets were stoned and killed by Jewish traditionalists INCLUDING HAVING JESUS MURDERED.
The bible is very clear that it is the false prophets whom the Jewish traditionalists listen to.
You might want to check your personal measuring stick for prophets against what Jesus actually says. Jesus sees it quite the opposite than Jewish tradition:
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing!” [Luke 13:34] and [Matthew 23:37]
Within one day of Jesus saying this the Jewish traditionalists had Jesus murdered.
So much for Jewish tradition on the prophets.
In fact, most all of the true prophets were stoned and killed by Jewish traditionalists. And it was actually the false prophets whom they listened to.
But they were stoned and killed not for being wrong or false, but because the people didn’t like what the prophets had to say.
I absolutely believe that God through the Holy Spirit is still speaking to His people, but not in the way of giving prophesies about coming events. The Bible is the whole word of God about what is to come. He doesn’t need to still talk about this leader or that leader. He said tribulations will come, nations will rise and fall, but when these things start happening at faster rates and bigger than before, and what nation falling will have as big of an impact as the USA, then look up, Jesus is coming.
Well….they didn’t stone Jesus. The Sanhedrin crucified him even though his prophecies are 100 % accurate.

Interesting….very interesting?

Tree Knot ! Thanks, this is great ! I will pray that this works out in our favor. It is nail biting to have to wait for QW until after the fraudulent impostors get “installed” into office. Makes a lot of sense and for sure now I see why Jezzebelosy is frantic to get him out asap.
This may be that Divine Intervention Miracle that I am relying on. Thanks for the very hopeful legal action post !
Would this be a Quo Warranto case?
Kim Clement also prophesied Eminem and some other prominent rapper would give up their careers, join forces and rap for Jesus.

A great leader.. Marine Major General Chesty Puller has been quoted as saying “ They have us surrounded ..those poor bastards” kinda feels like that scenario now. Fools have rushed in for the kill but it may be their wake after the dust settles. If that happy event does happen make mine a double! Another marine who deserves everlasting honor and respect is Major General Smedley Darlington Butler. 80 or so years ago he single handedly Stopped A coup plot by….you guessed it the Big Boys of that day who were planning a fascist take over. The plotters included the father of G H W Bush the shrubs grandpappy! The more things change the more they stay the same.

Sorry about that double post haven’t slept for weeks.
It’s worth re-reading.
“‘…The plotters included the father of G H W Bush the shrubs grandpappy!…”
What?!
Yes, General Smedley Butler’s book War is a Racket is worth a read!
M J. Smedley Darlington Butler reminds me a lot of Gen. Flynn , even resembles him a bit.
How kind people are this morning!
The Babylon Bee has The Democrats’ Complete Legislative Agenda For The Next 2 Years.
How you perceive this will either make you laugh or despondent. I got a good chuckle from the article.
https://tinyurl.com/yyekcjao
Among the many of what should be funny, but is actually quite possible and scary, legislation acts in this satirical list is this one–
–“The No More Racist Founding Documents Act – Will replace The Bill of Rights with The Bill of Lefts. Will also draft a new Declaration of Dependence.”–
I will not watch the “inauguration” but I want to know afterwards who attended from the Republicans. pence said he would so I want to see which other Repbulicans do this to validate an antiAmerican administration.
Well, even if you don’t watch it live, if the arrests go down, you can watch re-runs… My wife got such joy over watching compilation videos of everyone laughing about Donald Trump announcing his candidacy.
I have no doubt that all the Republicans will attend. Furthermore, not a one is worth even wondering about. If we don’t see that now, we never will and we might as well join the herd of sheeple.
They will all be there Krystal for the free cocktails and lunch.
I read that Ted Cruz is going and at least three of the others that objected to the electoral votes. Hawley didn’t respond, so don’t know if he is going.
You should watch and see what happens
I believe every Senator is going. So yeah they suck. The GOP is not on our side or the side of the Constitution.
This playbook is as old as, well, Communism.

At the end of the day, they ALL betrayed our President. All, except his loyal Deplorables.
God has a plan, and it is always for the good. Does not mean there will not be some suffering. No pain, no gain. It is how we learn.
Have a happy Sunday. ?
“to plan” is a human term..I doubt the creator uses such immature mentality..eternity makes day to day
year to year decade to decade ..a joke to such a being ..do not bother the creator he has much
to attend to..as we humans, can only see a small dot of what is immense in time and space..
humble man has much to be humble for
And yet Christ taught us to pray to God and call him Our Father. The creator Himself wants us to “bother” him and have a personal relationship with him.
You seem to be on the wrong blog.
I would rather YOU be right..but I admit I cannot hold that view and ignore the discoveries of science on our place in this magnificent Universe..at
one time the church was sure the earth was the center of all the universe
and demanded the faithful to follow. do not get me wrong..religious people
are the bedrock of our society.
Jesus was the most anti-religious person to have ever lived.
Religion is man’s attempt to reach God. Jesus said I AM the only way to reach God.
They killed Him for that.
LOL! —> “discoveries”
You are aware that discovery is LEARNING, right?
Discovery is not “KNOWING”
He loves us so very much!
The LORD God creates and knows all; it is only man who “discovers”
To discover means TO LEARN
If one learns it means they didn’t know prior.
The student is never greater than his teacher.
Check out quantum physics and quantum mechanics then read the bible especially when it says “God is Light”
[John 1:5]
Or how it is that Jesus was transposed (appearing to His disciples)
It’s scriptures like that that go unnoticed by science, until science catches up with scripture.
Prior to quantum theory of light and even today most people read that scripture and skip right over it. “God is Light.”
And science says to travel the speed of light, time ceases, meaning eternity having no time space dimension
which of course God is eternal, HE IS LIGHT.
God is light and exists outside of time.
=====================================
You will see in the future AFTER man “discovers” the true nature of light that we will be using it for far more than we do now. Pioneers in the field are already using it for medical and other basic things.
There is nothing in the Word of God that is contrary to science, science being behind what is in scripture.
Even time space, God said one day to Him is as a thousand years.
==========
Here’s another scripture;
1 John 4:16
GOD IS LOVE.
Jesus loves YOU 🙂
–” “to plan” is a human term..I doubt the creator uses such immature mentality..”–
Well of course ‘to plan’ is a human term, but I can’t for the ‘human’ life of me figure out why you would declare that as an ‘immature mentality’ instead of a higher order of human mental capability and functioning. Indeed, It is that ability that allowed you to type those very ‘immature’ words.
If your ‘immature mentality’ reasoning holds true, then your final statement of a “humble man has much to be humble for” is just a human term of immature mentality and being humble means nothing–So why “…bother the creator…” and us insignificant humans with your human terms?
‘God is Great, Beer is Good, and people are crazy.’ — Works for this humble human.
point!! I am a good example for sure…liked your post
And I enjoyed thinking upon your post as well.
Can’t we get a thumbs DOWN icon please SD?
There is an epic silent film from 1920’s named Old Ironsides..great film.worth a look. It depicts quite accurately how The First Marines opened up the sea lanes for free passage and after lunch sent the Barbary Pirates straight to Davy Jones Locker.wrapped in bacon. Love silent films there is NO tedious talking getting in the way of the plot. And they portray accurately, mostly,the grand Patriots who came before us and to whom we owe everything.
No hay mal que por bien no venga, there is no bad that good will not come
Unfortunately, it probably won’t be in our lifetime.
No good deed goes unpunished.
They actually betrayed the country and its citizens.
My 90+ year old Mom’s perspective – This war is good vs evil. It needs to be fought with rosaries and guns.
Yep, I still have the rosary my father carried into combat in Italy. The rest the enemy will find out when they do. This isn’t about Biden v Trump anymore, it’s about the health and sanctity of the Republic and our intrinsic liberties, freedoms and rights. They are under attack. God be with us.
Mom sounds like a bitter clinger. /
LOL! 🙂
Wisdom comes with age
Not much truth happening.
The suicides or possible suicides.
I would not have known this if it wasn’t for this twitter post. Makes me want to head back over there.
“Italian government collapsed.”
That’s funny.
They says that after every new government falls or ends in Italy.
And there’s a new one every 2 years, sometimes it changes twice in a year!
LOOOOOOOOOL!
I wouldn’t put too much stock in that.
That’s just Italian politics.
Ref:
Italy changed sides in both WWI and WWII
the Uniparty actually made Trump a political martyr. Trump was assassinated by a fraudulent election.
I would like to add to your observation:
The Left has created a Trump trifecta: Warrior Hero; Underdog; Living Martyr. Americans love and root for all three of these.
Trump does not need to participate in politics again for these three status’ to be fuel for the fire in the bellies of Constitution loving Americans to stand against the commies, to overthrow the commies.

Hopefully the barbed wire fences around the Capital and Supreme Court will be used to trap those In Congress and the SC who colluded with the ChiComs and committed treason! All the rats that are destroying the country and Constitution all in one place! Godspeed President Trump!
Unfortunately they have tunnels to escape. What are they called? I believe “rat lines”. How, befitting.
Well I’m sure we have some Vietnam War tunnel rat Veterans who would be more than happy to perform underground search and destroy missions once again! Godspeed President Trump! Can’t afford to let one treasonous SOB escape!
.45 cal pistola a pig sticker 3 extra mags a flashlight and Guts.
All of those should be pretty easy to shut off.
Hopefully the barb wire andbarricades will shock the elites into a realization of what their power grab has done to the country. They have built their own cage if they fear the citizens reaction to what they have done.
Don’t Worry… Now That D.C. Is A Fenced Off Maximum-Security Prison, I’m Sure That “Snake Plisskin” Will Extract POTUS Before It Goes Pear-Shaped… No I’m Not In The “Hopium-Den”.. All Kidding Aside, Trump Isn’t Going To Fold To These Communists It’s Not In His Nature. Have Faith.. It Ain’t Over…
Love that phrase “goes pear shaped”…first heard it from my son when he returned from a visit to Britain!
I minor point of correction..
Barbed wire has a little piece of wire wrapped on it.. you know the type of wire used to controll animals..
They are installing RAZOR wire a completely more sinister wire.
Barb wire can be mounted with minor puncture wound to the person. Razor wire slices you like a knife and you can die from trying to go over it.
Razor wire is used arround prizons.. nasty stuff..
Im absolutely in shock that razor wire is being deployed..
MAGA
It’s making the nation’s capital resemble a gulag. Then again we know communists love setting up those kinds of encampments. We should of listened to Joe McCarthy seventy years ago when he told us our government was infiltrated by communists!
Excellent, encouraging information. Thank you.
And Biden is nothing but a puppet to the real people who will be running the country. It’s the third Obama term!
His soul is so corrupted.
He has celebrated and funded Baby murder
Groped children
Look up what his daughter says went on in their House
Hunter has pictures floating around with a 7 year old girl
He has campaigned on and lied about his wife and infant daughter’s deaths
He sold out his country to our enemies for money
Any philosopher ancient, medieval, or modern, who is worth his 2-cents, especially any Conservative philosopher, will tell you that before you can take the proper course of action, your mind and soul must be examined to assure that they are thinking in such a way, so that the course of action chosen will, in fact, be the proper one.
Allow me to offer some thoughts for you to ponder from Conservative philosopher Albert Jay Nock, whom I discovered c. 55 years ago, and who remains just as salient today as back then, perhaps even more so. He was a member of my great-grandparents’ generation, i.e. the Post-Civil War generation, who grew up during the turbulent times of the settling of the West, the Gilded Age, the Gay Nineties (which had entirely different meaning then), and of course who were the leading generation during World War I.
By the time the Roaring Twenties had finished and the Great Depression had hit, Nock had soured on the American government, and had even soured somewhat on the American people, although not completely hopeless were the latter, he wanted to believe.
Here are two important quotes – startling ones, given that they were written over 90 years ago (1927) ! – from an essay entitled The Anarchist’s Progress:
“(When I was in England in 1911), the Liberal Party was in power…and my attention became attracted to its tenets. I had already seen something of Liberalism in America as a kind of glorified mugwumpery.* The Cleveland Administration had long before proven what everybody already knew, that there was no essential difference between the Republican and Democratic Parties: an election meant merely that one was in office and wished to stay in, and the other was out and wished to get in.”
Nock continues:
“Great and salutary social transformations, such as in the end do not cost more than they come to, are not effected by political shifts…least of all by violent revolutions, but by sound and disinterested ** thinking….We need only remark that our place and function in (a social upheaval) are not apparent, and then proceed on our way, first with the more obscure and difficult work of clearing and illuminating our minds…second with (giving help) to others whose faith, like our own, is set more on the regenerative power of thought than on …premature action. “
Thus I believe, I sense, I fear that too many are scrambling right now with too many hopes and fears and may not be coolly pondering exactly how to oppose in the best way the coming attempt to “re-make America” into an 87th-rate land of corruption, poverty, shame, and regression.
Prayer – never to be discounted, especially guided by a few readings from the Bible to focus our thoughts toward “What does God want me to do?” – reading History, reading the essays of Edmund Burke, Erik von Kuehnnelt-Leddihn, and Albert Jay Nock and others, and perhaps avoiding certain websites completely, is quite possibly the balm many of us could use right now.
* “Mugwump” was an Algonquin Indian word for “important person” and became the nickname for 19th-century RINOS, i.e. Republican “reformers” who left the party in protest over James G. Blaine and supported Grover Cleveland.
** The proper meaning of “disinterested” is “objective,” “cool and separate from.” It was NOT a synonym for “uninterested.”
I heard many lost souls prayed as the Titanic sank..some drank toasts to each other..
none worked on finding a float ..but trusted in the G_d they prayed to.
Anon,
We’ve all got an appointment with the last breath and no amount of praying can change that. In the meantime, I’ll enjoy my moments in prayer because I’ve seen them answered. You’re on my prayer list now!
Thank you for your kindness..I would wish all of our Fellow Americans were such
as the many faithful posting here…my loss of faith in formalized religions is for me
to bear…the teachings of Christianity/ Jewish Talmud .. stand as great wisdom
thru the ages..I hope they will outlive the curse of Marxism
It took God 400 years to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. It took 40 years for him to lead them across the desert to the promised land. I’m not why prayers are expected to fix things short term. God has a different timetable.
Yes. His ways are higher than ours and His timing is always perfect.
Dear Justin, …and as I said in another thread, Imagine being a Jew in a German concentration camp, and praying…and all the horrifying, heartfelt, pleading prayers that are sent to the Father throughout the world. You are 100% correct.
We have become a people of instant gratification. We’ve raised a generation of spoiled brats in the addlepated idea that we were making their lives easier and better. That they would “contribute.” Participation trophies, “everyone is a winner,” “there are no losers,”. “Someone will save you from your really bad decisions.”
God’s ways are not our ways, and really, thank God for that! Neelia
yes the time line of man vs the creator is kinda what I was alluding to..
That’s interesting as I heard that many lost souls believed in ‘the science’ they were told that the Titanic was unsinkable and “as the Titanic sank..some drank toasts to each other..none worked on finding a float ..but trusted in the..” ‘science’ they told that it was unsinkable.
At least two sides/perspectives to every human tale told, my friend, don’t ya think? And isn’t that great!?! I think it is also great that both or many perspectives can be discussed and examined in blending together our understanding of the human condition.
The Sinking Of The Titanic Took Out The Opposition To The Federal Reserve Act.. They Are Now Trying To Force The “Great-Reset” Down Our Throats…. Oh The Humanity!
great post..thank you for that,,so confusing that most humans are decent and
kind..yet so many in power are the devil’s own
To live is Christ, to die is gain.
Mugwump also referred to a person who sat on a fence with his mug on one side and his wump on the other, and was popularized by Thomas Nash. The word was not a term of endearment and referred to political turncoats in the republican party. Today the word applies to most of the republican senate.
Thanks. Good post. Good advice.
I need to start practicing what I preach because I’m still like boiling cauldron…
My prayer life is slowly maturing.
???
“... I’m still like boiling cauldron…”
Believe me, I understand the anger, the dismay, the depression involved in the 2020 Election.
Channeling that negative energy into something positive
and finding some sort of optimism are my main concerns right now.
“Channeling that negative energy into something positive and finding some sort of optimism are my main concerns right now.”
Imo, such an endeavor has to start with less looking at “them” and more looking at “we” …
I watched a movie, cant remember what it was about but the one thing I did take away was an interview with an old woman who lived thru the depression.
When asked about that time in her life, she said “what depression?” We did not have much money but we had food to eat. Enough to share with anyone who came to us hungry, and a roof over our heads.
Jesus did not talk about the rampant injustice in Rome or the governance of it territories. All he said was “render to Caesar what is Caesars, and give to God what is Gods.”
IF God leaves this situation stand, and our government continues its slide to perdition, I believe I will do my best to live my life like the old woman, and honor those words of Christ.
After all, what good are politics, men trying to rule other men, I have no use for these things.
another great quote from AJN:
“I wonder how many such men in America would know that Communism, the New Deal, Fascism, Nazism, are merely so-many trade-names for collectivist Statism, like the trade-names for tooth-pastes which are all exactly alike except for the flavouring.”
― Albert Jay Nock
That’s an amazingly true stmt.
Yes: the false dichotomy that Fascism is somehow different from Socialism/Communism persists to this day e.g. “AntiFa” idiots are just as stupidly brutal and nihilistic as any Italian Fascist or German Nazi.
Thanks so much for this, Ausonius. I was never a good student of history, seemed like too many dates to memorize. But then I never had one teach history the way you do on this site. I have to reread your posts a couple of times and then think. You must be doing something right.
Many thanks for the nice sentiment: I always taught History as a story with very interesting characters, and the task was to wonder why those characters acted the way they did, and to marvel at the coincidences, the opportunities, the good and bad luck, and the choices made and not made.
Memorizing dates was not my thing: to be sure, you needed to know e.g. that The Thirty Years’ War lasted 30 years – 😉 – around the early 1600’s. But more important were the results of events, both long-term and short-term.
For example, much of what we have today we owe to the Greek soldiers at Thermopylae and Salamis and other battles against the Persians, and to the Roman legions of the Punic Wars and the Pax Romana.
Setting up the dominoes across thousands of years and showing how e.g. Ptolemy’s mistake in calculating the circumference of the Earth led to Columbus discovering America was my main duty!
thanks.
Can you imagine living or working in D.C. right now? Roads closed that you need to drive down. You have to ask permission to park every time you park. Want some groceries? Ask permission. Want a quick bite to eat? Ask permission. Need to hurry someplace for an appointment? Nope. Running late? oh well wait in the line. Had enough of the BS and think you’ll just leave? Nope Sorry pop your trunk, wait over there. Don’t talk in line. Expecting a delivery of your favorite ice cream to your office? Sure, just as soon as we search every package, envelope and electronic gadget on this vehicle.
Yeah they’re feeling safe. Not. A few more days of this and there’s gonna be a revolt from within. I hope it lasts until 2024.
The federal employees have mostly been ‘working’ from home since March.
About 40% of the residents don’t actually work they get welfare
The other 60% are wealthy and are being paid to ‘work’ from home or don’t need to work
The city of DC doesn’t really have a middle class like say Ohio does
And the only working class are the massive amount of legal and illegal central Americans in the Adams Morgan neighborhood
Our grocery store is again out of toilet paper and many items such as distilled water and other staples.
And they won’t articulate why all this drama.

I like you enjoy reading the comments.
HoneyBadger, thank you for this. Some of my favorite comments:
The Leftist commenter:
“Why are top members of an outgoing President’s staff — four days before his term is done — now having an unannounced Saturday morning meeting at White House complex?”
“Did Attorney General Barr resign in December because even Barr — with his ominous record of abetting authoritarianism and destroying our rule of law — could not stomach the abuses of power he expected Trump to try in order to stay in office, against free will of American voters?”
“And for the thousand time, where is Pence and what is he doing?”
“Pence still (at least in theory) works for us and has no right to slink around secretly, as if he is a private citizen. His whereabouts could affect our future.”
“And what is the President’s (radically underqualified and underexperienced) national security adviser doing at this secret White House meeting this morning?”
“What is Giuliani doing at White House? Answers welcome.”
“Under pressure from Trump White House, Acting Secretary of Defense has ordered NSA to “immediately” install Republican party ex-operative (and Devin Nunes ex-aide) as NSA general counsel, reports Washington Post. With less than four days to go of Trump’s Presidency? Why?”

Churchill and President Trump, both betrayed from within
As I watch “The Darkest Hour,” a 2017 Academy Award-nominated film, the similarity between the betrayal of Prime Minister Winston Churchill by those around him as well as U.K. voters, and President Trump becomes starkly apparent.
Churchill was surrounded by backstabbing appeasers, think Neville Chamberlain, and weak-sisters like Lord Halifax while President Trump has not only been backstabbed by appeasers like Mitch McConnell (another China lackey) and weak-sisters like Obama, who favors appeasing countries like Iran (state sponsor of global terrorism) over the United States.
Churchill was handed a disaster in 1940, the result of decades of “peace at any cost” clowns like Chamberlain, who allowed the British military to rot and wither. When the military was desperately needed, Dunkirk happened, like Benghazi happened, thanks to feckless and incompetent leaders like Atlee, Chamberlain, Carter, Clinton, and Obama
Consider how President Trump said much of the same thing in his speeches and rallies, which, like Churchill, annoyed and angered the rich and powerful, the Deep Swamp critters like the clowns in the Lincoln Project. Remember that Chuck Schumer once said, “let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” and how much it did to undercut and sabotage a man who not only worked for the country but went so far as donating his salary to charity, something that no president ever did.
Indeed, like President Trump, Churchill was sabotaged by lies, including this whopper, “the East End of London was flooded with rumors that he [Churchill] was planning a war against Russia.” The Democrats mewled in 2016/17 that President Trump would start World War III and thus, started an avalance of lies, innuendo, and plain outright slander. And some people lapped it up like a cat lapping up cream.
In conclusion, it is blatantly evident that both Prime Minister Churchill and President Trump were sabotaged, undermined, and plainly backstabbed by men and women, i.e., Schumer, McConnell, Pelosi, Liz Cheney, etc., who, in reality, were not and never could be, in a thousand years, fit to do the laundry of either man. They will live forever in history, as great men, while the miscreants and lesser humans, on both sides of the aisle, will be quickly forgotten. Perhaps Sam Adams, the Father of the American Revolution, said it best: “Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/01/churchill_and_president_trump_both_betrayed_from_within.html
At least the Brits were dignified and gracious while being backstabbing traitors. Pelosi, Schumer, Mittens, McTurtle et al, not so much.
Interesting points. But is there another way to look at it? I believe there are great differences between Churchill and Trump.
Churchill is regarded by some historians as a tactical dunce,(Gallipoli, Yalta,…). And the results of his grand strategy work are nothing to brag about. If Churchill was an American politician he would probably feel at home with the neocons and Dick Cheney. Prior to WWII, Britain was the preeminent world power, and ended broken and bankrupt. (Let’s not dwell too long on Britain’s foolish war guarantee to the people of Poland.) Churchill didn’t give a damn about the people of Britain. His mind was limited only to the idea of “Rule Britannia” -countries across the globe, for better or worse, dominated by Britain. A Globalist.
Trump recognizes the dangers of globalism. Trump, like all of us, sees how elites, who don’t give a damn about their own countrymen, cleverly stab their countrymen in the back, send our sons off to foreign wars, while sending their own sons to ivy league colleges, all while entering obscenely stupid trade deals. Trump is a nationalist. Trump is a legendary genius at negotiating and tactical combat. And the results of his grand strategy, America First, were abundant until the globalists conspired to release a biological weapon across the planet, locked down the world economy, and tasked their corrupt American employees (elected Democrats and RINOs) to overturn the 2020 election.
This thread is beautiful! Thank you ALL for being here!
Nobody can be certain what will happen between now and Wednesday the 20th @ 12:01 PM.
On the one hand things points to a successful steal of our presidential election. The powers that be are revealing their desperation to rid themselves of the Orange Irritant with impeachment, or the 25th Amendment, why? The last thing they can have is Americanism rising up and derailing their NWO dystopia and depleting bank accounts. “If” they complete the steal it won’t be like the dog catching a car but a train, the Trump train. We fight from that ground.
On the other hand our Great American President Donald J Trump may indeed enact EO-13848 and play tough for a late inning win. This sounds more like our Lion. However, he will not pull that string IMO unless he has a chance of winning. We know all the federal agencies are arrayed against him; his Trump card would be the military. Will it be enough, we’ll know very soon. We fight from this ground.
Either way is full of peril.
It’s impossible for anyone to know for certain. My “hope” is he goes for the late save of our country and himself. We’ll see.
God Bless America! …we’re gonna need it!
I’m with you StanH ?? Fight Like a Fly and WIN like a Trump — ?
no the Action way is full of Hope..the”do nothing” is full of peril.
The military brass, who controls the strings are against our Lion also. I truly believe they have our President locked away from public view.
Notice Lindsey Graham went to TX with the president – I think he has handlers.
What they don’t get, “we have not yet begun to fight”. If it starts, hide and watch. I believe the President will do what is necessary to avoid this.
I’m hoping for an asteroid or some other act of God as soon as the last Trump family member leaves DC.
Leaked Zoom Call Shows US Federal Employees Conspiring to Sabotage the Trump Administration
The Deep State runs deep.
A leaked Zoom call has surfaced online showing a number of US Government officials discussing how to sabotage the Trump Administration. They admit doing this through leaking or withholding information.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/leaked-zoom-call-shows-us-federal-employees-conspiring-sabotage-trump-administration-video/
What a great leak….
A conversation can literally be minutes, but a Zoom video is forever….
What a bunch of pathetic dummies!!!!
Pathetic? They got away with it…
Shocking how intentional they were in their betrayal of our patriotic President; every single little thing he tried to do for the betterment of the American people they saw as their right to slow or prevent.
That one person … not even sure if it is a he or a she.
Every single one of them should be fired, colluding against the President on the tax payer’s dime is insubordination.
I remember seeing the full leaked call many weeks ago and I kept waiting for it to get more traction. I believe (but don’t have the link nor can I find it now) there is a section in it also with Susan Rosenberg
Even though it is old, it reinforces how really evil are so many on the left. That it isn’t just the leaders, but it goes down through the ranks.

We are well down The Road to Serfdom. President Trump is making a U turn back to SANITYVILLE with his Foot an the accelerator just before we go off the cliff. He is still in the drivers seat.
Seems every site I visit posts the block buster news from twitter, and my friends ask me if I saw the latest thing on Facebook. I talk to folks that tell me they support our President, but there’s nothing they can do.
If deleting Facebook and Twitter is too difficult, what chance do we have? I know many have quit, but seems to me there are many more on our side that haven’t.
Netflix, Amazon, the list is too long, but all these companies support the Globalist/Socialist/ Fascist agenda. It’s tough to stop doing business with all of them. But please! Do what you can!
The US is still the financial engine of the world. Pull the plug and it will be noticed.
Social media is now an indispensable advertising and marketing artery for businesses large and small. I am not sure a company can compete if it gives them up. That plus the fact they have to “behave properly” on those platforms they now depend on is very concerning.
If just 3% of the 80,000,000 Trump voters stopped using these services just one time that would be roughly 2.46 million less orders for these antiamerican slobs. It adds up real quick when that same 3% stops using them entirely. Now do some quick math and figure out what would happen if 20% stopped using them completely. Devastating would be an understatement.
We have remarkable silent power to make change but people would need to be disciplined and train themselves to use that power. We don’t need to be organized, we just need to do our little part, quietly and without fanfare. Fighting back doesn’t require us to join any group or movement. Just intestinal fortitude to stand for what we believe.
Think about it and then do your little part.
“…do your little part.”
This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^.
See my post on the Daily thread…re 3%…that statistic is powerful for both good and evil.
I still have my FB account ONLY because that is how the locals in my rural community spread news. We do not watch the news on TV or paper, we communicate via messenger.
We have no choice at this point in which to communicate locally. We passed around the 24 hour FB shut down and did so. I live in deep red North Florida. We do what we must.
I personally never look at my feed so never see advertising.
That is too bad because there are much better options they could easily download for free.
And communicate with WHO?????????????? Try rounding up 40,000 in our county to a new platform………..LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Are they all in a FB Group?
No, just message each other. I have 1200 FB friends. Some have many more but we connect when we need each other. Even our neighbors
We communicate with our local Gov officials that way also because we are still in recovery from Hurricane Michael 2.5 years ago……. the forgotten cat 5 hurricane. It’s all we got
Is not one of those 40.000 capable of making a website (Wix, e.g. not perfect but is Israeli not Silicon Valley or China), doing a newsletter, creating an email sign-up list (newsletter, chain letter email and/or listserve), creating an account on GAB, announcing where they can be found before deleting the FB account… None of these solutions have the ease of FB — but is your freedom really worth the ability to peruse the daily pictures of someone’s cat or what they ordered yesterday at a restaurant?
I am a web developer, only one around here that I know of and I am on a tractor 7 days a week weather permitting.
I really just wanted to give a wake up call to those that are soooooooooo demanding about getting off these services NOW. Most rural areas are similar to ours at least that I know of and we are very old school.
I don’t wanna fight over the ins and outs. Just walk a mile in my shoes, that’s all
You can have Messenger without your FB account
She is a disgrace.
Side Note: Ann Coulter back stabbed President Trump. Probably happy that President Trump was screwed by massive voter fraud. She is about Ann Coulter and selling books.
I’m amazed that people push anything of hers.
Self-serving professional provocateur who got rich putting her finger in the air to see which way the wind was blowing.
Did you bother to read that book? I doubt it. And:
Love Her or Hate Her, Ann Coulter Warned Us About John Roberts 10 Years Ago
BY STEPHEN KRUISER JUN 25, 2015 4:41 PM ET
https://pjmedia.com/tatler/2015/06/25/love-her-or-hate-her-ann-coulter-warned-us-about-john-roberts-10-years-ago-n201585
The woman’s a loon, but she was right about illegal immigration. I live in California and I can’t begin to imagine how much worse it’s going to be here since we’re the main destination for most of the illegals.
She blamed President Trump for not being tough enough on illegal immigration. She is a blowhard that could never standup to the abuse that President Trump took 24/7. You can’t just snap you fingers and make things happen. I am sure she is happy President Trump election was stolen. She is also all about selling her books.
I think she is like the rinos in Congress. They actually prefer to be in the minority so that they can talk tough but not have to actually do anything to make it right.
We get our fair share too. ?
“The woman’s a loon, but she was right about illegal immigration.”
100% for anyone who opened up their mind and bothered to read that book. It’s disgusting that some people here are as close-minded as the left for anyone who strays from 100% in compliance with the party line.
But that’s OK, it’s far too late now anyway.
I was registered as an indie starting 25 years ago because I recognized even back then the RINO SCAM the eRep party, UNIPARTY as SD calls it, was and IS. If their failure to investigate election fraud isn’t proof enough, the still faithful must be blind.
Who cares what Ann Coulter says? She thinksPresident Trump has only built 12 miles of border wall.
One doesn’t have to like her to acknowledge that she was right, and she warned us.
Both Ann Coulter and Matt Drudge’s only issue they care about is illegal immigration.
When our true enemy is within.
The caravans of Central Americans are only tools being used by our enemy.
So Drudge is so arrogant and childish and vengeful that because PDJT wasn’t as tough on illegals as he’d like him to be decided to just turn Drudge over to the people that overthrew our government!
That’s just dumb.
Drudge is a big baby.
Rich off of all of us and thew all of us under the bus. One day the leftist regime will come for his stuff.
So he’s okay with the totalitarian left.
Say what you want about Central Americans, but they are not the enemy. They are being used as a tool by our enemy THE AMERICAN LEFT aka the dems.
Try 40 million and another 90 million via chain migration. The country is over.
She’ll get physically attacked in the new normal DC now.
Democratic Farce known as Speaker Nancy Pelosi:
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/01/pelosis_third_impeachment_folly.html
The progressives call Nancy Pelosi “the wicked witch of the west”
Progressives like Chris Hedges and Jimmy Dore are saying that the establishment dems will soon target progressives even more viciously than they target conservatives because they call them out like Julian Assange did.
Progressives are also calling out AOC and The Squad, saying they’re all “fake progressives” running cover for Nancy Pelosi.
Maybe one day we the people will unite against the uniparty and understand
“the enemy of my enemy is my friend”
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/leaked-zoom-call-shows-us-federal-employees-conspiring-sabotage-trump-administration-video/
This video is a zoom call of Federal employees plotting among themselves on how to mess up Trump’s administration and who they cooperate with to do it. It names names and organizations. Very telling. They discuss leaking and how to obstruct orders from higher higher up. They are very blatant and organized in their efforts.
Project Veritas had an undercover investigative series about two years ago exposing many Fed employees that consider themselves ‘Democratic Socialists’ and how they gleefully discussed ways in which they worked to undermine the Trump Administration every day while at work.
OutRAGEous?, sure, but just like then nothing will come of this.

Grandma-Killer Gov. Andrew Cuomo Deflects From His Failures By Attacking Janice Dean’s Career
.
Fox News’ Senior Meteorologist Janice Dean is a vocal critic of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic after she lost both her in-laws to the virus due to bad state policies. Cuomo’s office, however, doesn’t think she should have a voice in the fight.

https://thefederalist.com/2021/01/15/grandma-killer-gov-andrew-cuomo-deflects-from-his-failures-by-attacking-janice-deans-career/
He has the high ground. Our illustrious former AG William Barr allowed Andrew to slow walk handing over the records on which any investigation would have been based.
There was never any federal investigation, and there was never going to be one.

Looks like an endless flight parade in and out of DC this morning.
Quite a bit of C-17 activity in & out of DC last 24 hrs. is what I’ve seen, a number of them belonging to the National Guard.
Yep,
Just this morning in the past 2.5 hours I’ve counted 10-C130’s, 3-KC-135’s, 3-C17’s and a Pegasus.
Love the call signs on some of the NG flights — DAWG85, HUSKR17, ELVIS88, etc. 🙂
Ok guys. What is C-17 and the rest? Importance?
C-17 is a very large, heavy-lift transport aircraft for troops & equipment. Looks like they’re still bringing in lots of troops & stuff into DC.
Transporting the Biden cabinet in and the Trump cabinet out?
Here’s a serious question:
Would you be OK with President Trump being the antichrist? Here’s why I ask: I don’t pretend to know what God’s plan is, but I have absolute faith in God’s plan, however it comes to pass. While my flesh self wants PDJT to triumph here and now, my Spiritual self is just as accepting that he may be the instrument of God which brings us to where He wants us to be, even if we don’t get what we want immediately in the process.
I can honestly say that my service to the Lord has little to do with worldly rewards. I do what I do because deep down in my heart, I love God and I want His glorious plan to unfold as he would have it do so. I am in service to God and I am to demonstrate daily His love and His devotion, and therefore my heart is filled with Joy, no matter what is going on in the world.
Let’s keep the main thing the main thing, God’s work as expressed by our hands, and God’s love as accepted within our own hearts as the center of it all. I don’t deal in how bad it is. It is that bad because that’s God’s PERFECT plan which opens opportunities for all of us to play our role- our role in His plan. Find inner peace, invite Jesus into your heart if you haven’t already.
Does not the Antichrist need to denounce God? President Trump is not the Antichrist.
The Antichrist could also be the globalist one world government that wants to rule the earth. It is God’s plan to rule the earth, hence “Thy Kingdom come” in the Lord’s Prayer. But I don’t really know, of course.
The antiChrist has specific signs from prophecy. Trump has not shown any of these specific signs like the mark of the beast before you can buy a loaf of bread or the 666 or coming back to life after a head wound.
I agree with both Jlwary and Justin here, but that’s not the point of my post, it’s about measuring oneself and to see where your own heart is. Not really looking for anyone to analyze whether he is or is not, but our own willingness to accept God’s plan as God intended it to be. It’s a hypothetical, and one I don’t need anyone to answer publicly or to me on.
To that end, I have been battling back my fear (and winning) because this is all on God’s time and according to his plan. It brought me great relief when I refocused on that.
The antichrist we’re thinking of (there are many anti christs according to scripture) will usher in the third temple era. So it will have to be someone who can make a deal in the middle east wherein all parties agree about the hotly disputed temple mount, and agree the jews can build a new one and worship there.
I don’t believe that’s President Trump based on other things said in scripture about the anti-christ, but I guess it’s possible. Our focus is supposed to be on being ready for Jesus’ return, so I try to keep mine there.
The antichrist is supposed to be loved worldwide not persecuted and removed from office.
I don’t know anything about religion, but understand that god is the ultimate arbiter of what happens.
But isn’t there a need for people to act?
The activity of the Antichrist is shown to occur in Europe. I am far from a Biblical scholar, but when the book of Revelation talks about the Mediterranean Sea, Rome, Jerusalem, those are the actual physical locations and cities. Of course, sometimes Rome and Jerusalem are symbolic, but you can tell when they are symbolic and when they are literal from the context. “The horsemen from the East” may refer to China.
Anyway, the Antichrist will make a treaty or pact with Israel that will be for 7 years, in which Israel is allowed to rebuild the temple, but he will break this agreement after 3 and a half years. When you see this happening, you know you are in the end times.
I see America functioning as a place of refuge and escape for those in Europe who are persecuted by the Antichrist, these would be the Christians and Jews. I think Revelation chapter 12 is about America, I don’t really know when or where I picked up this idea.
This video explains the basis of today’s leftist take on “reality.” It’s important to know how they think and reason if we want to deal with them effectively. Highly recommended.
I’m quoting from an article I read over at JoNova.
The Capitol Hill Police Force has 2,300 officers and a budget of $460 million, it’s bigger than the entire Atlanta Police force, yet Jake Angeli, or “Buffalo man” made it all the way into the Senate Chamber with a full metal spear “disguised” as a flag staff with just a cable tie.
And they even had three days warning.
The whole force answers to Nancy Pelosi. If the storming of Capitol Hill was “a coup” in progress, Pelosi’s leadership was an incompetent failure. But if the storming was a Publicity stunt, allowing Mr Spear-n-Horns in to star in front page spreads was a success.
I have always heard, if a Liberal accuses you of something it’s because they are already doing the same thing.
Nancy is more guilty of an insurrection than anyone else she accuses. That’s why she is desperate to get this impeachment completed.

You know what? All this trouble is in Washington D.C. now. Right where it belongs so as to get the attention of these ruthless money grubbing politicians. Now, their life is uncomfortable. They live in a war zone. Good! They created it
Yes, the 2nd most “protected” building in Washington, DC fell by siege in less the 2 minutes by a force armed with selfie sticks.
And I believe that a Marine General pointed that out to her when she contacted him to bring his troops in because she didn’t trust the weekend warriors of the NG. Then she begged him and he pointed out that he answers to the President as CIC.
A good caption would be “Was it good for you too?”
Or…
Elephant: “Oh, Donkey, I love it when you dominate me.”
Accurate as long as it was consensual and the donkey screwed the elephant, politically of course!
When we reach across the aisle like this — everyone gets screwed.

Um, yeah…
“HOWEVER the way the left and the media and social media are behaving is like conquerors who think (rightly) the rest of the nation is against them. More, they’re behaving like conquerors who KNOW they can’t hold on long. The stink of fear is roiling off them to the point of choking us. And frankly it’s making the rest of us afraid, because as grandma said “You can’t afford to trust a fool even on the ladder to heaven. They might push you down for no reason.”
Much less trusting a fool that will soon have access to nuclear weapons and the purse and army of the US.
And it fits neatly with the potemkin campaign which of necessity required most votes to be fraudulent and yet still came up short.
They have skipped the glorious reign 1000 years and are going right into locking themselves in bunkers from which they issue increasingly more deranged orders…”

Interesting interview of Mike Lindell by RSBN yesterday.
He discusses his visit with POTUS on Friday and also highlights the vile, agenda driven people working against POTUS and us, even within the White House.
https://rumble.com/vcwop9-rsbn-exclusive-interview-with-mike-lindell-on-his-white-house-visit-yesterd.html
The only good thing about Wednesday is Biden is not getting the standard Inauguration, no walk down Pennsylvania Avenue, no big Parade, I don;t think there will be a ball? how about the luncheon? No one on the mall…POTUS got all those things..
Because POTUS actually won his election.
AND this one.
Wonder what goes through a person’s mind knowing he’s illegitimate and doesn’t deserve this honor. Biden can’t feel good when he lays his head down at night. Kamala either for that matter.
Items in your post that I don’t believe apply to Biden:
Wonder
Mind
Knowing
Honor
Good
But I enjoyed the intent of your post!
Oh yes they can. Their actions are evil. They believe they are right and justified. It is we who are wrong. They have lost their “moral compass”.
Remember, one said the election was rigged for cheating and the other promised to come after conservatives. When people tell you who they are the first time, believe them.
They want power any way they can steal it.
Evil people do not think the same as ethical, moral people.
Evil people believe: The End Justifies the Means. Whatever It Takes.
I asked my wife the exact same question last night. She said these people are so deranged that they have no conscience.
They have no conscience.
Unfortunately, this will now become the new reality. Thousands, soon to become hundreds of thousands and then millions of “refugees” from by now totally ravaged Central and South American countries, finished off by the Covid madness, on their way to the USA, and in their own word’s – “because Mr Biden promised them jobs”. My only “confusion” is – why would such a caring and humane administration expect them to WALK the perilous 1000’s of miles?? Why don’t they just send a couple of cruise liners, and drop them off in New York? – As a show of “equality” and a “welcome to the American dream” gesture and tradition. I’m certain New York and surrounds will just have to play their part in accommodating and providing those jobs. I mean, they did say all are welcome – correct?

We don’t have the infrastructure for them. Not enough water, housing, hospitals, doctors, schools.
That is the whole point.
I am only seeking information, for I have people saying it is fake,
This is my take on it.
look at all the nice law-abiding people who have no respect for laws of their own country, and other countries. H3LL they have no respect for their own people as they stomp all over them, not even. bothering to stop and help.
On top of them being future welfare collecting criminals here in America, where are the masks, & how many are carrying and speeding COVID?

They wouldn’t have departed had they not got the go-ahead from their Democrat/Republican allies.
Special request. Sundance could you post the picture of POTUS and Melania in Europe? They were outside walking toward a group gathered around a tree lit with holiday lights. Melania was wearing a golden yellow cape smiling at POTUS. We could use “the calm” before the storm. Melania’s grace and strength is so admired.
To all of those who say if we haven’t shut down FB, Twitter, Amazon etc…….. we are essentially feeding the monster……..
While I agree in the Big Tech over reach and cutting off the feeding trough…….. there are a lot of things you are missing.
Here is fly over country, deep in the heart of the south where we voted in droves for POTUS Trump, we are RURAL.
We communicate thru FB locally. Try rounding up 40,000 locals and move them to another platform……… WHERE??? It ain’t happening right now but hopefully will. Till then we have to do what we can.
We are limited on options to purchase and most of us dependent on online purchases………. changing habits, websites and such takes time.
Please don’t put everyone in a box………. We are just as Trumplican as you, we just live in the slow lane of the country. It takes time.

Sandra, I don’t use FB or Twitter, but installed GAB to see if it might be a FB substitute for my wife, who has to see the grandkids pictures. Someone from CTH has setup a group on GAB called Treehouse Friends. I have joined that group, but haven’t yet explored what all a group can do.
I suspect a group for NorthFLRednecks might work for you.
Many locals were relocating to Parlor until it’s demise so I doubt I can talk anyone in to moving to another platform till everything settles. I am on Gab and mention it frequently to locals. They are gunshy at the moment.
Parler (not a room in a house) is actually back up with an initial page now.
The reports of its “demise” were, as Mark Twain famously said, greatly exaggerated. It will be back.
For reference: We also are 2.5 years into recovery from the Forgotten Cat 5 Hurricane Michael that devastated us. So there are MANY counties in FL and GA who, like us have VERY limited options for everything.
Yes I am still bitter that we are forgotten!
Well at least get rid of Amazon Prime at the very least – you can still get free shipping it jut isn’t two day.
Also, no one needs cable or streaming. No one. I have had no access to broadcast TV since 2000, have no streaming, and have never in my life had cable. Somehow my husband and kids (who have spent their whole lives without any TV of any sort) are just fine.
I went into the claims about Jared Kushner and campaign funds a little deeper today. I was a bit surprised to see American Greatness taking up the story recently.
In Vanity Fair, where there has long been a feud between editorial staff and The Donald, I found this:
“Legally, it’s unclear what the blowback on Kushner—reportedly in line for a presidential pardon—and other concerned parties could be, and it’s possible no laws were broken.”

Their article is also full of “according to sources” “and former officials said” type assertions. Most important, the Vanity Fair article isn’t their own reporting, it’s reporting on a Business Insider article.
Publications do run pieces on what other publications have written, but this article goes beyond that, editorializing and drawing conclusions based not on their own research, but on their own opinions about the Trump family.
We watched President Trump win the election. In a landslide.
Then we watched as they stole it, and seemingly could do nothing about it.
We watched a peaceful Trump protest. Then we watched as infiltrators turned some of it less than peaceful, smearing Trump supporters forever in the eyes of those who watch MSM. We could do nothing about it.
Now we are watching as this inexplicable, bizarre, almost other-worldly military buildup for the virtual “inauguration” of a criminal pretend president is a set up to what we know will be a pretext for a huge and nearly instantaneous assault on the First Amendment.
It seems that this is another instance in which we can do nothing about it … even seeing it coming.
We live in a staged “reality”, totally powerless, our minds experience cognitive dissonance and we start to think..are we insane ?
I don’t “start to think that,” ever.
Gaslight was an excellent movie and teaches us how things can appear. But it also showed that reality reasserts itself.
I am praying for God to act. I have been at these “Red Sea” moments before and not seen victory, but other times I have. (in my personal life) In the bible, there are many examples of God doing miracles at the last moment while there are other examples of Him letting the people have the consequences of their choices.(rebellion against Him). There are other examples of Him changing his course due to the prayers of a determined and desperate person. I’m determined and desperate and know many of you are as well. Let’s keep praying for God’s intervention at this extreme moment in our country! ??????
They don’t really need our guns. They took over the country without our consent and the only shots fired came from their side, and that is with our second amendment intact.
Never forget cheering4america that it is the feckless, fraudulent, traitorous, Republicans – who have known for decades and been working with Demoncrats right under our noses to destroy this country, destroy our way of life and betray us – who are responsible for where we are today. The communist, fascist totalitarian state -the New World Government – will be implemented faster than we can imagine. If you are still a registered Republican -change your registration NOW. The Republican Party, FOX the Fixer Network and others, who betrayed us must be destroyed just like our way of life will be!
Molon labe.
I might agree with your opinion, but certainly not with your foul language.
Lindsey Graham’s Hair Has Turned White.. Looks Like He Has Seen A Ghost! Maria Had The Guy Sputtering.. The Guy’s Done He’s A Joke!…..
He never answered why he didn’t release the documents earlier
A great many of those who have stuck by the president even after many turned on him after January 6, and who are defending him from the charges that he did anything wrong that day, are also the same people who have been urging him to declassify everything, and to pardon Assange and Snowden.
I would post links but they are on Twitter, an I don’t want to get my head handed to me, yes I still go there to see what is going on.
It has been claimed that the president is holding back on pardons for Assange and Snowden as a bargaining chip to protect his family.
That may be true. However, whoever he is negotiating with, if it’s true, is likely to be Brer Rabbit bargaining to be thrown into the briar patch in place of being exposed.
Where’s that two grand? Any more deals with any of these people would be insane. Pardon Julian Assange and Edward Snowden, and anyone who is shown in a poor or perhaps criminal light as a result, that’s their problem.
