In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Whenever the possibility presents, throw sand into the machinery…

REVEALED: How White House HELPED Hunter Biden reach deal to ,keep buyers of his paintings listed for up to $500,000 confidential so they could ‘avoid ethics issues’
Just saw this. I laughed when I saw it described as “disappointing.” If it were Don Jr. they would have started impeachment proceedings by Noon today.
Hey, we are under a two law justice system. It is not unusual at all when under a Communist-style dictatorship.
It used to be writing a book and selling it to a Leftist publisher as the favored method of PAYOLA for Democrats. Now it’s just throw up paint on a canvas and get paid $500,000 from a secret art patron! LOL. The FBI is beyond useless and corrupt.
Hunter’s not even doing the painting.
Without a doubt.
…and this one as well.
https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2021/07/08/even-obama-ethics-chief-blasts-hunter-biden-art-scheme-arranged-by-the-white-house-n408026
This is further confirmation they believe they are in complete control and couldn’t care less what we think.
Biden’s dealer, New York gallery owner Georges Bergès, has also “agreed to reject any offer that he deems suspicious or that comes in over the asking price,” reported the Post, citing sources familiar with the agreement.
Several art world insiders questioned the steep asking prices for Biden’s artwork, with one critic describing it as “somewhere between a screen saver and if you just Googled ‘midcentury abstraction’ and mashed up whatever came up.”
https://freebeacon.com/biden-administration/white-house-wants-maximum-secrecy-for-hunter-biden-art-deal/
EVERY offer is suspicious! Who would pay even $500 for one of his drug-addled paint spattering exercises?!? Describing his “work” as “a screen saver” is too kind.
LOL. Leftwingers always get to self-regulate their hustle, like a tech megalopoly. Why does that always end up in so much bribery and crime? Mysteries, mysteries.
So the art world gets to experience the Biden family shuffle full on. Lol, the majority of the artists probably supported and voted for these communist manipulators and now get the real truth hitting them in the face that they are of no import whatsoever in the eyes of the leftist masters. Enjoy the fruits of your labors all of you artists that supported the wonderful world of the Biden regime.
Didn’t miss a beat. Zebra’s don’t change their stripes, criminals to the bone.
“It’s good to be king.”
A friend sent me the link (below) saying that what the couple being interviewed said sounded just like what I told her about the January 6th rally when we got home from attending it.
What happened to this couple a few months later — when the FIB broke into their home around 9am and put them in handcuffs — is something we expect to have happen to us, if our country continues on with lawless leaders.
I knew this couple when they lived in Atlanta. You can trust them.
Thank God that woman kept her wits about her.
These people are incredibly impressive. They speak beautifully; they are lovely Americans. I am proud to be on the same side as them and I only wish if I had been in their situation I could act and speak as well and effectively. They are so calm. A supernatural peace.
It’s obvious that the Resident has some minor flunky whispering in his ear the answers to presser questions.
True interfaith support there. I assume he’s both Conservative and Jewish from the name and particular historical references he was making yet he is alone in supporting an end to the crime wave against 20 Christian churches. And you’d see us doing that for Orthodox Jews under attack as always happens. If there were burnings of 20 abortion clinics would super devout abortionist Catholics Pelosi and Bribed-en say something? And fearless leader Trudeau who I heard said he “understood” the Christophobes. There would be an international man hunt for Klantifa if they were burning mosques and/or abortion clinics yet here we are with support or silence for killing indigenous church goers.
So… how is this not like burning black churches in the Klan days? Klantifa and BLM, buring black businesses and indigenous church goers are Klan.
Klan bailed out by Heels Up and celebs and given hundreds of millions by corporations and Soros dark money.
It is VERY sad that this world was on the cusp of a global rise of all the middle class and underclass people
(with the uber rich doing fine too) but now a few evils and cabals are allowed to just go on a global rampage against anything good.
We need to protect and defend all religions and all houses of worship especially Jewish and Muslim in America. These religious minorities came to America to escape horrendous persecution they deserve to be allowed to practice their religious beliefs in peace and prosperity!
VICTORIA FRIEDMAN8 Jul 2021 Breitbart

An astonishing 83 per cent of Britons have said that if wearing a mask in public were a “personal choice”, they would do so, after another recent poll revealed that despite the mask mandate possibly coming to an end this month, the majority back it staying in place and even feel unsafe without them.
The YouGov poll from Tuesday found that a combined 83 per cent said they would wear a mask if it were a personal choice today. Four in ten said they would wear them only indoors, with 30 per cent saying they would only wear them inside if the space were crowded or unventilated.
More than one in ten — 13 per cent — took the most extreme option and said they would wear a mask indoors and outdoors.
Just 13 per cent said they would not wear one at all.
Fake poll.
Yeah, I don’t believe that for a moment. Did anyone happen to see those anti-lock down rally’s in London? No, they’re not idiots, they know and they are being silenced.
Honestly, we need to just ignore polls. They started getting manipulated the moment they were used as “news.” Notice it’s illegal in Europe to publicize polls a month or so before an election because they are pure propaganda.
It all started with when Clinton was impeached. Every night they reported fake polls talking about how univerally beloved he was AND that all his rapes were “consensual sex.”
I’m so embarrassed I didn’t know he was raping and sexually assaulting women BEFORE and DURING his presidency from Broadderick to Willey to Jones.
I get so tired of us publicizing them now too. Good or bad, they are b.s. and a set up (so they also do the thing where you report a high poll for your side so they can falsely make it drop later).
Isn’t “Yougov” something where “Youtroll” can just press and refresh the same answer a 1,000 X?
Yeah, trash.
This is not surprising at all; 80% of the people are wrong 80% of the time. 20% of the people are correct 80% of the time. It has been this way since before Jesus.
I’m embarrassed at how weak the English are – doesn’t really matter as they will be a majority muslim country in fewer than 20 years. They’re already dead and just don’t know it.
This is true. But the US is supposed to be the Leader of the Free World.
If you’re embarrassed at how weak the English are, you must be horrified and mortally ashamed of the US. After all, you have allowed a small cadre of extremists to take over your country.
Worst still, as the apocryphal phrase goes “We have met the enemy and he is us”
Neither the blacks nor the hispanics have the power nor ability to dominate and rule you – its your own children that have done so.
Shame on all of us. Western Civilization, which originated (more or less) in the UK, is dead or dying, and despite the fact that we were warned (countless times), we didn’t teach our children. Instead we inexplicably outsourced that job to the enemy.
Poland, Hungary, Lithuania – still alive. US, Canada, UK, Australia, NZ – dead or dying.
The end times are coming. Repent! as all nations will fall. As heaven is sets up on Earth. Jesus is our lord and savior. Submit to Jesus. Man / Nations can not save you. God has his own time line and plan. You may not know how this ends, but God Wins!!!
Actually Hungary has so few children and has done so for decades that they will just disappear like the Japanese.
A lot of truth in your comment. Unfortunately. The future generations will be far different Americans than what we have been up until now if it is unsalvageable. It will be so terrible if we cannot save at least some of what America really is.
Britons have given up their country and freedoms it seems. What a terrible legacy they leave behind after centuries of fighting for those freedoms. So sad.
HHS Director Becerra says on CNN that because we received stimulus, the government has every right to know our vaccination status. After they locked us down and we never voted for stimulus either. Most went to corporations anyways.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/07/hhs-secretary-becerra-absolutely-governments-business-know-americans-not-vaccinated-video/
Well then, good. I did not receive their “stimulus” so THWT.
CCVulgarian…you are not alone, I never received a stimulus payment either……
He can shove that proclamation right up his shady spot.
The covid relief payments happened a long time ago and came with no such conditions attached nor were such conditions ever discussed before now. The public “contract” was agreed upon and executed. It’s done. Neither party can go back 6 months later and claim additional conditions that were never a part of the original “agreement”.
Someone in OBidens regime needs to rein him in.
While rolling my eyes about mandatory masks in the airport this week, I was telling my kids how airlines used to harass and scold people over not turning off their cell phones. In 10 years I did tons of flying, everyone was told it was dangerous to have the phones on. It was all a b.s. lie. I never turned mine off, ever, and not one of my flights had issues. I remember getting yelled at more than once, though.
Then, one day, the government basically announced “never mind”, and now the airlines only mention it in passing. I have no idea why they even say anything. It’s like they just can’t let go of lecturing everyone…even though cell phones on airplane s pose zero risk, and zero incidents reported in the 20 years since they first started screaming at passengers.
A bunch of high school kids made news the other days for refusing to wear their masks. American Airlines cancelled the flight. All the passengers quoted went on and on and on “just obey the rules”, “just follow the rules,” and “well the rules say…”.
We live in a country where far too many people obey rules that are stupid snd serve no purpose.
What I find interesting is that the unthinking obedience behavior was a cultural trait attributed to Germans and Germany, for decades. The media and academia promoted a snarky, superior attitude toward all those obedient Germans who would not question the rules, who allowed the Nazis to do whatever evil
Presto chango, all of a sudden that is what Progressives want… along with midnight raids and incarceration of political opponents
And they are too stupid to recognize hypocrisy in themselves, too
We’ve been lied to for 70+ years that the German people just went along with the rules even though they personally didn’t like what Hitler was doing.
It doesn’t take total war and the possibility of using atomic bombs to defeat a country that is tepid about fascism.
The German People writ large were all-in.
American troops liberating concentration camps in Germany reported the locals said they had “no idea” what was going on in the death camps.
They knew.
They approved.
Our inability to understand this simple fact is why most Americans don’t yet understand that Liberals want us all dead. All of us.
And I want them dead.
“Did you get your booster shot?” I ask, with Fake Enthusiasm, of the leftists, eyeing the obituaries every week, looking for some good news in this sea of destruction.
“Did YOU get your booster shot?” is a great retort to the Vaccinators. After they hem and haw, I would tell them in the very next breath, that they had better put their masks back on because vaccinated people -in particular- are reportedly having great difficulty with the variants.
I imagine that would leave them with their mouths hanging open. But if not, there’s this: “Herd immunity was achieved and the old vaccine is already outdated. I will wait for the next vaccine that deals with a CURRENT strain of virus.”
Weird how only the camps Russia “liberated” were “death camps”
weird how the Red Cross only came up with 230,000 dead in the camps.
“All in” on what?
Invading Poland. Annexing parts of Europe. The war in Russia. The invasion and occupation of France. The internment and killing of Jews. Indiscriminate aircraft and V2 bombing of civilians in Great Britain.
The German people were all-in.
Hokkoda ……… Along with a lot of others you are sadly uninformed. ……. Yes , some rules do not make sense , but many do. …….. When first used , Mobile Phones had all sorts of known , and unknown , side effects on other electronic equipment. ….. I assume you understand that this is also the case with a new , not fully tested , Vaccine…………….. In cases where lives could be lost , Hospitals and Aircraft are two of the more obvious , restrictions had to apply until the unknown effects were known and all unwanted side effects were eliminated by re-design. ……… Shielding , Frequencies , double redundancy , etc. ………. I also do not know of an aircraft crash known to be caused by a Mobile Phone …… I do Know of a few where the cause is not known but a passenger was using his Mobile at the time. ………. Put more simply , if you have a vegetable garden and a neighbour gets a cow you have to put a 24 hour guard on the garden. ……. After you put up a fence the Guard is not needed.
Back in the olden days when cell phones were heavier contraptions and were said to use more energy, we noticed a problem in Labor and Delivery with the baby warmers heating the babies too much. It only happened a couple of times. Both times, the problem seemed to spring from a cell phone. We always told visitors to turn off their cell phones until they left our department. Apparently it was more important for those two persons to ignore us.
I heard that Biomedical Engineering had a list of equipment that had malfunctioned in the presence of the old phones.
And I’m sure somebody was wearing a hat. So clearly hats should be banned as well.
When asked, your Government could produce NO TEST DATA showing that cell phones interfered with airplane functions and airplane communications.
In fact, they tried like hell to prove they were right in the 2000’s, and finally gave up when various government funded tests showed zero effect.
In 20 years, there have been no ground or flight incidents, zero, involving EMI from cell phones. Most planes now have paid WiFi available.
Just like the masks, the cell phone bans were based on sketchy “SCIENCE!” ,anecdotes, and “but if it saves just one life” do-gooderism.
Had I been on that flight, would have been extremely peeved at the high schoolers.
Like it or not, we KNOW when we book a flight what the airline’s rules are.
Sounds like they were throwing sand in the machine. I am proud of those kids for standing up to fascists.
Enough is enough!
First it’s TSA body searches and we said nothing. Then it’s masks and we said nothing. Next, these airlines will demand vaccine passports, a slippery slope indeed.
I agree with Sundance that it’s high time we throw sand in that machine. Sorry for the inconvenience.
I would have taken mine off too, and joined them.
Don’t forget your mandatory vaccine passport next trip. That will be the government work around.
I shudder to think what it will take to wake them all up.
CNBC article on Wells Fargo getting out of consumer loans. These would be unsecured revolving credit lines. I dont think this is something they wanted to do, but not sure why they are doing so just yet.
Wells Fargo is shutting down all personal line of credit accounts (cnbc.com)
Is it part of the fallout from their cross-selling fraud?
sounds like they are either losing money on them, or expect to lose money on them not too far in the future.
i wonder why?
Yup. I’ve had that LOC account for 20 years and just got the interesting letter that they all be shut down in September. The interest rate is 10% so I essentially used it only for major expenses (car repairs)–used it like a credit card. I figured they just aren’t making enough money on. Since I live on a reality-based budget, no company doing interest-based business with me is going to find it profitable.
Most likely because they know they know that in the future they will be forced to make loans to people not qualified, who will not pay them back.
Just like the Federal Government caused the mortgage crises meltdown. By forcing banks to write loans they know people could not afford.
Ya know, out of fairness, and other fairy fart horseshit.
I work in home lending but I don’t do HELOC’s. Wells told my brother, who is AAA+ that they would not be renewing his HELOC (home equity line of credit). This was about two months ago.
It reminds me of the 2008 crash
It wasn’t until about 1984 that bank charters were able to cross state lines. That was the approximate beginning of banks growing regionally then nationally, and ultimately becoming to big to fail. If the U.S Treasury maintains control of the Fed and rolls out the QFS I dont think you will see the large money center banksas the exist currently. Small state chartered banks will flourish.
Lots happening in the banking world
Someone should alert my branch I get new offers of 18 month interest free lines of credit every week?
Well, if they think getting beat up in high school was bad…..
Lt. Byrd was investigated for leaving his department-issued Glock-22 firearm unattended in a Capitol restroom. A Glock-22 was used in the Babbitt shooting.Stefani Reynolds/Bloomberg News
Apparently his bag of cookies is more important than his pistol.
I don’t think he was aiming for Babbitt.
Based on what facts do you make this claim?
WHAT is really in the bag? Or maybe question should be, “What is the paper wrapped around.”
Oh, is that a laptop “in” the “looks like a package” against his body?
Good eye.
Is that Nancy Pelosi’s laptop?
Haha , Zy !
That’s what I thought it was ,, a Bag of Cookies ???
I believe he was told he could murder someone because the deepstate wanted a death for their false flag and he waited for the first white woman because that’s who he would enjoy kiling.
This clown reminded me of the DEA agent who was giving a speech to a grammar school class, drew his Glock, and shot himself in the foot…..
That’s a “professional” fer yer….
Haha. Never play with a loaded gun.
I vividly remember that.
Goof described the Glock and told the class he was the only one qualified to carry it.
Then “bang”, right foot as I recall.
First person to reveal his name. We are supposed to be worried because this man has received death threats? No one has ever worried about any other police officer identified in a civilian death. Double standard.
.
Yeah. Where is a high level official telling us all that the ‘police acted stupidly’ . . .

Are asthmatic protesters very loud?
Asking for a friend.
What will be funny is when the people who voted for this in NYC lose power and die from heat when they lose their air conditioning.
What makes you think they voted for it? I think NYC has been doing voter fraud for a long time.
New Yorkers always tell you they are the smartest people in the world, so don’t worry.
Why do I see them forcing all the asthmatic black people (kids and adults) to wear masks 40 hours a week over a year now?
We have always known that would damage health.
The #1 thing you need is air, meanwhile Democrats are taking the people’s air away.

https://thepalmierireport.com/biden-forgets-what-hes-talking-about-takes-credit-for-raid-he-opposed-snaps-at-reporter/
I wonder if someone is talking to him in his ear. It looks like he’s looking down and listening and then answers the question. If you notice when he’s finally able to speak, he smiles like yeah, that’s the answer. His handlers are running this whole show and they will do whatever they need to do to keep their power.
I’ve been thinking he has someone telling him what to say for months now. He’s quite obvious about it -looks down with an embarrassing silent pause or a random uh, oh anda…then he repeats the answer usually mispronouncing a word or two and getting any figures completely wrong. He has a tendency to rub the right side of his head just over his ear when he needs coaching. He’s an awful person and an even worse Presidential stand in.

Wacko Media has no moral character by which to judge good and decent people. That’s why they fawn of crooks and creeps like Avenati.
They are moral and ethical voids.
I love this..
Makes me think of the one funny joke I heard from SNL in recent years…
“I’m so shady that a porn star once said she had distance herself from me.” -Avenatti
Awww…didn’t he used to be the “Next President of the United States?” according to CNN, MSNBC & The View?
His friends got him off easy, 2.5 years. He won’t serve 2.
Lawyers sentencing Lawyers.
Professional courtesy.
Same reason rattlesnakes don’t bite each other.
Roger Stone got 10 years for absolutely nothing since the FBI and DOJ knew a year before they indicted him that the Russian Collusion Dossier was a complete hoax!

Good news fellow Non-Essential Chump Neanderthal Deplorables. We have finally achieved bi-partisanship!
All thanks to Chuck Todd on his MSDNC daily show Meet The Press.
You see, Chuck Todd had former Ambassador John Bolton on his show today.
Instant bi-partisanship!
Ha. Was in a thrift store today and saw Bolton’s book for $3.99. Looked brand new and unread.
a swamp replacement for a swamp “retirement”.
JD Vance is NOT MAGA. He graduated from Yale. One of his closest associates is Jai Chabria (a John Kasich strategist). He was a board member of a “mega-green” company. He is funded by Trump hater Peter Theil. He is being covered rather mildly by numerous leftwing sites (he should barely be on their RADAR). Far left HULU sponsored his documentary. He got a book deal (often the money laundering method of choice by d e e p s t a t e).
STAY FAR AWAY OHIO!!
Peter Theil a Trump hater? Wasn’t he a major speaker when candidate Trump was nominated in 2016? Wasn’t he on one of President Trump’s Tech councils?
If the following article is to be believed, Theil didn’t support 45’s reelection campaign:
https://marketrealist.com/p/peter-thiel-trump/
Wow!!! I had not heard that. Thanks.
Damn, yeah I thought Thiel was one of the good guys.
Yeah, he quit on Trump not too long after supporting him.
Did you actually read the piece? Have you read his book? Do you know his story? Have you been listening to him?
If you wish to gain allies and take back the country then I submit that rejecting people who were not on board with “MAGA” from the very start is a losing proposition.
There were a LOT of people who did NOT like PDJT when he first arrived – his personality rubbed them the wrong way.
My own daughter was like that – she HATED him. Along the way she took the ‘red pill’, and realized, though she still disliked his “style” that the alternative was not an option. And she recognized his POLICIES were far more important than his ‘bluster’.
Now, she would walk through hell to cast a vote for him. She “sucked it up”. But I wouldn’t say she’s fully “MAGA”, whatever that means.
My daughter sounds very much like JD Vance. I guess you wouldn’t want her either. Or any of the extra millions of voters who took the “red pill” the second time around.
Maybe Vance IS totally corrupted and just wants to use this as a step to power. Lay out the evidence if that’s the case. I am willing to be proved wrong if someone can show me the “receipts” where Vance has criticized or bad-mouthed President Trump in 2018, 2019 and especially 2020. 2016 is a long time ago – show me a recent damning criticism please.
But rejecting him because he’s willing to “suck it up” and respect the choice and feelings of his constituents seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face. NONE of the other GOP do that or say that.
Stop searching for golden MAGA unicorns and have some forgiveness
“He has taken on a pro-Trump stance in recent years” – Recent YEARS, eh?
“Like a lot of people, I criticized Trump back in 2016,” Vance told Fox News’s Alicia Acuna during a Monday interview. “And I ask folks not to judge me based on what I said in 2016, because I’ve been very open that I did say those critical things and I regret them, and I regret being wrong about the guy. I think he was a good president, I think he made a lot of good decisions for people, and I think he took a lot of flak.”
Thanks for that. I do not know a whole lot about Mr. Vance but I try not to throw allies under the bus. The oft repeated criticism of candidate Trump was that “he is a NY democrat”. I have no idea what that is supposed to mean. The same people who said that seem to have forgotten that Ronald Reagan was once a democrat too.
Its one of the things about conservatives that I do not understand. It is as if our ideology is a waste. So many on our side can’t seem to accept anyone who leaves the demonrat party and join our side. But if we really believe we are correct then why would we not want people to leave the demonrat party?
Despite my Theil posting, I am giving Vance the benefit of the doubt until I learn more about him. In yesterday’s Presidential thread I posted a Mark Steyn monologue about Vance and a Mark Steyn interview of Vance. Further, after having read Hillbilly Elegy and after having seen several interviews/speeches, I know Vance is not an “elite” ~ very pro working folks/American Dream. My impression is that he actually has some disdain for elites. Finally, like you, I can forgive someone for not being a Trump supporter in the beginning.
Some of you never learn. Or you are 100% shill.
Remember when the establishment killed the Tea Party by injecting fake Tea Party candidates into the movement? This isn’t a purity test. Its a common sense test!

“The phone hasn’t stopped ringing since Friday,” Vance adviser Jai Chabria told BuzzFeed.
Jai Chabria is his advisor. Where did he get Jai from? John Kasich. Stop being naive folks. He is meant to look the part, but he is definitely swamp. Sundance is 110% right about him!
You mean Jai Chabria, the guy who walked out on Kasich in the middle of his Presidential run? Maybe he saw that Kasich may have been a good Governor (he was) but wasn’t there for POTUS. Why would he dump him after been with him for 20 years at that very moment when power might have been within his grasp?
And, sorry, but exactly why does that disqualify Vance from forgiveness for something he said in 2016?
As bad as the progressives if you can’t accept as allies those who weren’t on board the MAGA train initially. Especially someone with Vance’s background. They are EXACTLY what we need.
I am absolutely convinced you are an operative for Vance. You mislead in half-truths. Not sue you even made it half way in this case.
Jai did not walk out on Kasich. In his own words FROM HIS OWN COMPANY’S WEB SITE (Mercury), “served as a senior adviser in the Kasich administration before leaving in February [2016] to pursue other projects.”
And when did Kasich’s 2016 campaign end? Lets let Jai answer that too, “helped build the early framework of Kasich’s 2016 White House campaign, which ended earlier this month.”
SO HE SERVED FOR THE ENTIRE 2016 CAMPAIGN.
It goes on, ““If John Kasich were a building, Jai Chabria would be a cornerstone of that building,” John Weaver, Kasich’s chief strategist, said Thursday.
All of this from Mercury LLC, a “Public Affairs” company Jai partnered with.
Here is another fun fact. “Among Mercury’s partners is Mike DuHaime, a top strategist for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who like Kasich ran unsuccessfully for this year’s GOP presidential nomination.”
And who is Mercury? In their words, a “bi-partisan consultancy”. “We provide results for the world’s most successful companies, leading advocacy groups, governments, political parties, NGOs, and prominent public and political figures.”
Who are some of their clients? The who’s who of big pharma, Microsoft, NBC, Qatar, etc.
But by all means, lecture us on how republicans deserve our trust and have earned the benefit of doubt. And to be honest, there is no doubt that Vance is swamp. You are creating that doubt on his behalf. He has never apologized for his anti-Trump and anti-MAGA statements he made. The tweet Sundance referenced is not him embracing MAGA, it is literally him stating, “I am not MAGA and I am not Trump, but the only way to get elected is if pretend to be.”
So either you are the dumbest person on this board, or you are an operative sent here to disrupt and to push swamp disinformation into this group.
Like to know where that UK poll was taken, here in normallsville England 70% plus are not wearing them outside and more and more are ‘forgetting to put them on’, inside. I even saw a notice in the local train station to ‘make sure your mask covers your nose’ so obviously a considerable number of passengers have just been ‘going through the motions’.
At my work place management said that, ‘due to the Delta varient’ we had to continue to wear them indoors, when moving from bubble to bubble, but as soon as they cleared off few wore them.
It will be interesting to see what happens when parents realise that the masks have damaged their childrens health how many sue. Already more and more negative news is seeping out past the BBC mindguards.
.
My guess is the poll was taken in London, going door to door while that huge ‘anti-lockdown’ protest was taking place . . .
Says it’s Yougov, some onlin crap which can just be manipulated in bedroom slippers by some SJW.
There you go. Others thought it was bogus (convinced me of the same) and now we can just assume that’s the case.
Hello my Treeper Friends!
I have been concerned with my kids and what they learn in school or more importantly what they don’t. For the last couple of summers I have had grand plans to teach them as a “summer school” of things they wont learn anywhere else. On the 4th it occurred to me that another summer would slip by before I found time to follow through.
My solution is to have them be the teacher. I have given each of them a task point from history that they have to teach the rest of the family at the end of the week in a 30 minute lesson and do this weekly.
In getting them started I got out some books that I have for them to use as source – no google!
One of those books is “An American Patriots Almanac” I opened it and found a book mark.
The bookmark was inscribed with verse as follows:
“The wicked man flees though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a Lion.” Proverbs 28:1
I immediately thought of Trump. He is the Lion and bold in his work for Americans. The wicked hate him for that.
Lets make lots of Lions and Lioness’ for America. Lets start a network of Kids researching and teaching TRUTH and Patriotism to fiends and family guided by us – the parents and family members that love this country.
If the younger generations know what is in our Constitution and History, they will be able to stand on their own against others who berate the nation now or in their future.
They have to know it – if they dont truly know then they are too easily swayed by sweet sounding but false arguments from others.
I will let you know how this experiment goes, but it is something to think about and who knows which of your grandkids or own children will be the next Patriot to step into the breach like President Trump.
I have been reading this novel about the unbelievable sacrifices made by the men who fought in the American revolution. The stories are riveting.
The Indispensables: The Diverse Soldier-Mariners Who Shaped the Country, Formed the Navy, and Rowed Washington Across the Delaware. by Patrick K. O’Donnell

oh thank you – I am going to use that.
I would also love to get a copy of Rush Limbaugh’s father’s speech. Rush used to talk about it every 4th back in the 90s. He even published it in his newsletter back when he had his TV show.
I had a copy and lost it over the years…..
It details what most of the Declaration signers went through during the war
Speaking of Rush, his Rush Revere books are excellent sources of history for kids and adults alike.

Teaching also doesn’t need to be done formally. Speak up and pontificate whenever you hear or read something that merits comment. Read books to them — they don’t need to be nonfiction and dry because the classics, e.g. Steinbeck, will have things in them that merit stopping and discussing. Talk at dinner, ask questions about school and ask their opinions, then voice yours. Get movies for everyone to watch together, same as with the books and “discuss”. Talk when driving in the car. Doesn’t have to be merely “history” either, because everything is interrelated. A trip to the shooting range merits a disvussion of current events, or the Second Amendment on the drive over. Working in the woodshop can give rise to information about history, apprenticeship, and evolve into what was going on in the 18th and 19th centuries. (As well as math and geometry). Etc. Learning is continuous. Be the teacher.
You outline how the book of Deuteronomy describes how to teach out children:
“And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.” Deut. 6:6-9.
We should be teaching our children in everything we do. In every aspect of life.

Biden.
Sure, this makes sense. There’s nothing to worry about. It’s just the faux leader of the free world mumbling about this or that. Nothing too important. Everything will be fine.
Two brain surgeries that we know of….He didn’t speak like that BEFORE the surgeries.
Where is Biden’s health records, tests, and cognitive results? What medications is Biden on? What venereal disease does he have?
I have received 4 emails today, or more, from the NRSC soliciting funds using Trump’s lawsuit to raise money. I unsubscribed, of course, I thought I had already unsubscribed from all Republican Party fundraising, but this is absolutely disgusting….these people are shameless pigs.
Same same here lf, unsubscribed and not one penny more, not one.
Worthless louts.

This is a great cartoon. I’m leaning toward “fake” tho. Cuz they spelled “euthanize” wrong. >>>> People have gotten stupid over the years, but back then, I *think* they wouldn’t have let that slip by. Could be wrong , of course.
Either way, it’s a great cartoon!

“Essentially what we want to do is make condoms available to students for if and when they think they need them.”
https://independentchronicle.com/chicago-schools-to-make-condoms-and-birth-control-available-for-fifth-graders-report/
I dunno….maybe I’m just out of touch.
But maybe, if we weren’t hyper sexualizing young children, teaching them about multitudes of sexual identities, and igniting natural curiosity, 10 year olds wouldn’t be feeling a need for a condom!
When did adults give up using the word “no.”
I truly believe many children are crying out for some structure and guidance. They are, after all, children. Caving to, and actually encouraging their irresponsible and self destructive behavior is the last thing they need.
Agree bewildered. Let the innocent children be innocent as long as possible. They don’t need the burden of sexual knowledge at such an early age. And that’s what is is – a burden.
That will be one hell of a water balloon fight.
Excuse me if I have little faith in the Manhattan DOJ, but something else that is unsual has come out of their office. On July 2nd, last week, a report came out of the Wall Street Journal that indicated that Lordstown Motors was being probed. I suppose the Manhattan Department is the right place for such a probe, but I can’t help feel that the probe is malign and political. I can’t connect any pieces together at this point, but if I do I will update. Please, somebody look into the matter.

Interesting thread from a (now former?) Dem in San Fran. As an aside>>> she’s started putting Thomas Sowell tweets in her twit acc’t.
Spread the word. The Hardcore Left is dragging The Normal Left over an ideological cliff… the ones that are not totally insane will save themselves.
I’m waiting to see which side some of my family members and friends come down on.
I’ve known them for so long, and most of ’em live in these h*llholes like NYC, Portland, Seattle. So the next few months will be interesting.

As a former GOP chair, I never thought I’d say this, but thank you to the Democrats for being good stewards of the Constitution when America needed them most.
This is on the twitter of Jennifer Horn who is no longer a member of the Republican party. What a brainwashed idiot.
“no longer a member of the Republican party.”

Supreme Court Puts an End to Another One of Democrats’ Failed Attempts to Destroy Trump

Oh my. If true, that would destroy the DemoCommunists reason for the Mueller probe to begin with.
But I can’t believe the Dems haven’t already had all that material long before now. They have it. This just means they cannot officially use any of it in their public lies, and fake news fabrications about President Trump unless the information was already in the public domain via other “legitimate” means long before now.
