“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”
“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Praying !
🙏 Amen!
I look at this little Chapel every single morning with envy that it’s not out in my own backyard.
It’s on my list to build a Chapel just like this out on the back 40.
If they can have Man Caves and She Sheds, I see no reason why we can’t have a Chapel.
In fact, we’ve got some amazing architectural salvage places in New England and I am pained every single time I see the remnants of a Church that has been closed up, torn down and then sold off for parts.
There is something particularly unsettling about this to me..
BUT if I build a Chapel… (if many of us did, just imagine…)
The image fills me with inspiration.. probably not the intended one, but big plans none-the-less.
This is a wonderful idea NH! I am praying that you complete your chapel on your property one day.
AMEN !!
SO SAY WE ALL!!
Amen 🙏 🙏 🙏 Praying for President Trump and our country 🙏 🙏🙏
AMEN
Amen !
Amen!
AMEN
Amen!
“those who seek to destroy it” – and that my friends is the gazillion dollar question. Who is “those”?? Nope, they’re not the sad individuals who identify as such (they know who they are), along with the they’s, them’s and all manner of grammatical gymnastics to identify just who you think you may be at any present moment. Sigh, it must be so tiring. Anyway, perhaps we, all of us should look a little deeper into ourselves with honesty and if in a God fearing, honest way speak to Him, in private or aloud (up to you), we must and should conclude that as a nation “Under God”, and that applies to all so called “religious” nations (they know who they are) – we, as a general people fail miserably in our so called obedience to God – “One nation under………” – sorry to say, what a crock. We all have a long way to go to what is expected of us as a complete society and people, if we, in our collective “God Fearing” nations wish to avoid what we know is the consequence of separation with Him. We All have ONE Creator, let us begin to act like worthy sons and daughters, before His patience runs out, if it hasn’t already. The scriptures are as alive today as they have always been, even to eternity, recognize yourself and be who you truly are.
Amen!
Pray, keep God and family close as we approach liberation day 1/20/25 @ noon. The demons are stirring.
Amen
Amen!
THE GAME PLAN
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit. A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Unseen1 @unseen1_unseen
Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1b visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough. They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it. You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
Excellent! That is SOOooo good,and I anticipate many times, responding to the absolutists by simply referring them to this “THE GAME PLAN”,…and I love the name!
I love it when a plan falls together!
I have been leaving on reruns of the A-Team in the background the past few mornings!
link to original quote, in it’s entirety, is below, with original author cited by our host:
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2018/03/23/president-trump-reluctantly-signs-omnibus-maga-community-feels-a-little-less-great-today/
and yep, it’s as true now as it was then.
JMO…Issues that we should not bend on ….the visa issue , border issue, voter fraud,……charging and convicting the all the top criminals no matter their status.
Not bend or no, we must not let others persuade us that a portion of a loaf at any point should be a rallying cry to bring it all down, or simply relentlessly snipe until all support is undermined.
Our adversaries are utterly diabolical, relentless, and well funded; we must not allow them to play us, and they are right here in a great multitude.
Blessings to Stillwater and Maquis! 🙏
Blessings to Fetterman and may numerous others follow his lead! 🙏

My office door—back in January of 2021. The past 8 years has been one hell of a “journey” and now we’re going back! What a time to be alive!!! We will NEVER see anything like this in our lifetime again—Our children will never see anything like this——nor will our great grandchildren, so let’s make the best of it, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN for future generations to come! https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/svg/1f1fa-1f1f8.svg🦅
Amen Maquis. Perfect might be a goal, but it can never be totally reached really. The same goes for the Trump appointments to his depts and cabinet. Don’t let the wish for perfect get in the way of the good these people might be able to do. Remember he can fire those who are not working for the betterment of America in the way he feels is best. Hang on and keep questioning but also look for the achievements we make along the way and be glad for whatever we can do to help erase the nightmares of the last 4 years and more. They will come.
“You sell peanuts when the circus is in town” …and brothers & sisters the demons who exist pretending to represent the will of the people cannot handle reality. I think of President Trump as a new Ringmaster at a three ring circus, Executive, Legislative, Judicial and all that, that entails.
It’s still the circus, and The Great Wallenda’s (Bush, Cheney, Pelosi et al) are getting old and even corrupt but still in charge of the acrobats, for now. Attendance is waning “will of the people” radical changes must be made or the circus will shut down (the USA).
But now when March of the Gladiators is played a whole new group of clowns, animal trainers, acrobats, illusionist et al march in, the trick is too get them back to what made the circus great to begin with and crowds return for The Greatest Show on Earth or Make America Great Again.
Ladies and gentlemen in the center ring, our Great American President Donald J Trump and the arena is at capacity with the Deplorable Army looking in.
Folks we must back President Trump or Voltaire’s prophetic statement too paraphrase; “Perfect is the enemy of good” will come true.
Are Radical Changes included in the ….perfect …or the good?
Oh, now there’s a name for us that speak upwhen we disagree with what we see going wrong? Well great, then I am one of those absolutists.
It’s just plain WRONG that President Trump has done an about face on H1B, and kicked the American workers in the teeth, because Big Tech wanted him to, or because a
cronyfriend of his wants to “invest” in America and the deal won’t work without lots and lots of foreign workers.Big Tech is the reason that a wall was promised but all we got was concern for the “Dreamers” and even talk of amnesty.
Bill Gates is the reason we didn’t get a vaccine integrity commission or autism council, and if we had RFK jr. on board from the start we would never have had warp speed and a vaxx that is still harming people.
Is a wall impossible? No.
Is it impossible to enforce existing immigration laws? No.
Is it good enough when a president can’t even enforce existing laws? Is it good when a president supports a corrupt visa system that harms Americans? No.
It’s not good, it’s pathetic.
Clarion, you have become such a negative ninny. Our President has not yet taken office yet has been working every single day on our behalf. What a schedule! Stop forecasting. I see nothing that portends your worse fears.
You seem to seek that of which you can whine.
I’ve seen a bunch of red flags prior to Inauguration. We would be fools if we didn’t call them out. Forgive our hesitations with New and Improved MAGA.
It is similar to going out to dinner with an acquaintance and for 2 1/2 hours they just complain, b**ch, moan, whine, and gripe about how EVERYONE ELSE is doing all sorts of stupid, bad, dumb, and inferior decisions while they, so perfect, have all of the answers and, too bad, that no one sees their superiority.
Eventually, no one wants to be around them because complaining is what they do. I actually had to tell a friend to stop it with the Daily Complaints phone calls.
It is tiring to be around.
Working to expose corruption and rectify it is complaining?
I’m not being negative and I’m certainly not a ninny. I am trying bring a halt to corruption. That is not negative, it is positive.
You didn’t see President Trump’s full-throated endorsement of the F1B visa immigration scam?
Stop your whining about me.
Art thou triggered?
Nope. I’m only as contemptuous of those who would try to silence me with name-calling as I ever was.
Is that what OLS is trying to accomplish?
Nice thought …… But Look at what happened after the first 4 years. PT must plan accordingly.
I’m pretty damned sure he has.

I was watching Leo during DJT’s first presidency. He always took the opposing side in the debate on FOX. He did an ‘about face’ and turned his back on the demoncraps. Amazing!
That’s a great choice. Leo Terrell is extremely loyal to President Trump and will undoubtedly look closely over Ms. Dhillon’s shoulder now and then. 😎
I always liked listening to Leo Terrell, thought he was a man truly interested in fairness and finding the truth where ever that lead! And he was passionate about doing it!!! JMO
John Fetterman Breaks the Internet With Two Explosive Statements on Fox News
It’s not every day that you hear a Democrat saying something like this.
Senator John Fetterman just broke the internet, not only showing his willingness to work with Trump but also throwing his fellow Democrats under the bus during an interview with Fox News’s Bret Baier.
First, in a move that surprised many, Fetterman announced he would vote YES on several of Trump’s cabinet picks. Names like Marco Rubio, Elise Stefanik, Sean Duffy, and Brooke Rollins are already on his list, and he’s even open to considering RFK Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard.
“I’m open to hear from everyone, and I don’t know why that’s controversial,” Fetterman fired back at critics, taking aim at his own party. “And I also would like to remind everyone on the Democratic side—that’s the way democracy works. Trump won, and now they’re going to run the table. You don’t have to agree with all of it, but I want to find a way to work together on a bunch of them.”

Then, as if that wasn’t enough, Fetterman took a flamethrower to the Democratic Party’s “freak-outs” over Trump’s interest in Greenland. Comparing it to historic deals like the Louisiana Purchase and the acquisition of Alaska, Fetterman dismissed the hysteria.
“If anyone thinks that’s bonkers, it’s like, well, remember the Louisiana Purchase? I think Alaska was a pretty great deal, too,” he said. “I would never support taking it by force, but I do think it’s a responsible conversation if they were open to acquiring it… And I don’t think it’s helpful to freak out.”
https://vigilantnews.com/post/john-fetterman-breaks-the-internet-with-two-explosive-statements-on-fox-news/
Just a couple of years ago I NEVER would have thought that Fetterman would turn out to be a sole voice of reason in the (D) party.
I’m willing to hear even more of his ideas about his willingness to work with the Trump Team….although it’s very wise to remember to N E V E R trust a democRAT.
Sen.Fetterman has more sand than almost all of the Republican’ts in the Senate..
I trust him more than Sen.”Skeletor surfing a Sinker Cypress” Scott or Narco “Foam Raver” Lubio, both of whom I have voted for repeatedly!
Funny how the Democrats are almost eager to confirm Rubio and Stefanik.
As his brain injury heals, he becomes more conservative.
I don’t understand why a Democrat wouldn’t want the opposing party to have quality people in their cabinet.
I mean, I know why, but real serious elected officeholders, when out of power, should be hoping for smart and competent people to temper the President they don’t like, right?
You Won’t Believe How Cheap the US Could Acquire Greenland For
The United States could literally acquire Greenland for less than ONE THIRD of what we’ve sent to Ukraine.
For just $57 billion, we could offer every Greenlander $1 million to support independence from Denmark.
https://vigilantnews.com/post/you-wont-believe-how-cheap-the-us-could-acquire-greenland-for/
At least we would know where the money went..
$57B won’t even cover the destruction in LA.
The US Dollar belongs to The People, not the Federal Government.
Like I stated several years ago,
President Trump has done many things in his life,
But there is one thing that 99.9% of human beings that have ever existed on the face of the Earth have done that President Trump has never done…
Without.
By that, I simply mean without a place to lay his head, or in eat or drink.
But God,
In His infinite wisdom, gave President Trump JD Vance…
A top down approach for restructuring/rebuilding works fine for Government and/or business.
Economic restructuring/rebuilding requires a bottom up approach.
Trust God.
Fear not.
JD Vance just posted on his Truth Social praising Trump hating actor Michael Keaton. JD Vance in his book praises many Dems, but especially Obama. Not sold on Vance at all. What he has NOT posted is a word about the California fires.
I had reservations about Vance, then as things changed, such as his ideas about Trump, I became for him.
When Sundance at first raised his suspicions, I started thinking about something that hadn’t really clicked for me at the time, which was how surprised I was to find a film version of Hillbilly Elegy on, of all places, Netflix.
That by itself barely registered but combined with Sundance’s observations, it grew.
Just finished the book, it was not especially great, I have a hard time thinking Ron Howard would be involved in making a movie of this book unless there were other motives. Something about his career path just reminds me of Teh Lightbringer. I think he was recruited in the Marines –He was chosen to be the person that spoke to the press and learned how to speak smoothly in public –over someone much higher ranking that they got rid of.
Give them the million dollars and then watch for the surprise on their faces when we take back 60% in income taxes on that money when they file their first US income tax 1040 return as US taxpayers. Now that would be priceless.
MELANIA’S MESSAGE:
Melania’s Coat Dress that she wore today is by designer, Valentino. Valentino used a print of the sculpture “The Kiss” in this collection that she’s wearing. The sculpture was originally conceived by a larger sculpture titled, “The Gates of Hell”. How fitting to wear in a room full of traitors.
https://nitter.poast.org/paintsaints/status/1877415942088511879#m
Fans speculate on the ‘hidden meaning’ of Melania Trump’s Valentino dress at Jimmy Carter’s state funeral
One fan tweeted, ‘Melania’s Coat Dress that she wore today is by designer, Valentino. Valentino used a print of the sculpture “The Kiss” in this collection that she’s wearing.’
‘The sculpture was originally conceived by a larger sculpture titled, “The Gates of Hell,”‘ they continued, along with a Wikipedia description.
The page explained, ‘The Kiss (Le Baiser) was originally in The Gate along with other figures of Paolo and Francesca da Rimini.’
It continued: ‘Rodin wanted to represent their initial joy as well as their final damnation.
‘He removed the figure that became known as The Kiss because it seemed to conflict with the other suffering figures.’
The former model’s devout supporter continued, ‘How fitting to wear in a room full of traitors,’ as Melania was seen sitting with her husband’s former opponent, Kamala Harris, as well as his former Vice President, Mike Pence, and his wife, Karen Pence.
Karen refused to acknowledge the president-elect along with Melania as they arrived, and did not get up from her seat or shake their hands.
Trump was seated with all four living former presidents – none of whom had endorsed him.

Prediction…She will be absent from Washington for most of our Lion’s administration…she will be either in NY with Baron or MDL…
Her attitude towards Washington was on full display yesterday…after what ALL of the former Presidents and VP’s did to her Husband and subsequently her… she wants retribution against them and will not forgive them for what they did.
And she is correct in her thinking…
I think she will be there as often as need be to simply be there for her husband; and will also be creating the path forward that future First Lady’s can lean upon when their husbands and family members come under constant attack.
No doubt the Rogues Gallery of idiots known as living past presidents know anything about the meaning of her dress-Melania is very knowledgeable and intellectually superior to the likes of the Pences and the Bushes.
She certainly knows how to make a statement…with class!
How aptly named is Ms Pence. Such a showing of devout Christian behavior huh? True Colors.
Karen Pence is such a mediocre and unremarkable petty person. So unattractive inside and out.
Except for President Trump and First Lady Melania, I feel nothing but disrespect for the rest of them. I expect (after reading the comments on the funeral thread) I am not alone.
Melania does appear to be well-steeped in the classics, she would know what she was doing.
I love Melania Trump and her quiet, subtle use of fashion to yell out loudly to those who care to hear messages from the heart. Best First Lady Ever!
Yep and they are too unsophisticated in the classics to know it.

Additional costs:

Dem party might implode?
2026 Summer Olympics- how can they possibly take place in LA Metro with greatly reduced infrastructure???
State budget deficit balloons, no more insurance for property owners – or it increases beyond reach
Tourism dollars reduced to fraction of pre-conflagration levels
Those are top of mind. Am sure many more costs. This week’s events will affect the state for decades.
Eroding tax base will justify getting rid of Prop 13 just wait and see. And then you will see a mass exodus from California–even better for the CCP and Private Equity Firms salivating at the prospect of owning most of the West Coast of California.
.
My thought is that the Olympic Committee will swoop in to ‘save’ the PP area by ‘commandeering’ it for the Olympic Village, putting up hastily constructed ‘dormitories’ around the town center — with the added bonus of being able to put security checkpoints on the two points of egress . . .
I keep saying 2026 Okympics, s/b 2028 Summer Olympics. Still, 2 1/2 years is not much time to prepare, especially for the numnutz in charge.
I haven’t heard anyone say maybe they shouldn’t rebuild like they told much of WNC..

Short Victor Davis Hanson on the conflagration in LA Metro. Clear, concise on why and what this represents. He’s not the only one pointing to the total breakdown of complex systems, IMHO the most clear.
Thank you for posting this video. Yes he does an excellent job explaining the total breakdown of complex systems. Of course he’s talking about how the breakdown has caused the devastation California is now experiencing with the fires.
However, IMO, the breakdown of complex systems by embracing leftist policies is widespread within California and across our country. One can take just about any area that our government touches has been negatively affected. Education in our country has been increasingly failing our children, our medical institutions, our legal institutions, our informational/media institutions and just about every governmental institution has been negatively affected.
I am perplexed as what is driving this erosion of effectiveness. Is it just good intention ideologies, greedy power hungry people or just stupidity. IMO it’s those things plus a strategy of globalization that wants to destroy the U.S. and other western countries. Globalization must destroy nationalism and nation cultures to gain control.
Europe is a mess for many reasons, but driving immigration into the various countries is destroying their cultures and independence. The same can be said of the U.S. This is intentional in the name of worldwide social justice. The globalist are all in on destroying strong nations and turning them in to third world nations that can be easily controlled by global government.
Anyway, I don’t think this is just incompetence, it’s intentional and unfortunately successful and growing. California fires is just another example of how certain policies are destroying a beautiful state and VDH explains this very well.
The only good that CA does for Las Vegas is bring in tourism. Otherwise, the CA government is a bad neighbor to NV.
Our gas in northern Nevada comes from California too. Guess it’s time to top off the tank and fill a few gas cans before the weekend.
Yes. Fortunately, I filled my tank up 5 days ago before the escalation in the destruction of CA.

The real problem with an earthquake is that: “you never know when it is gone.”
We decided that we didn’t want to deal with that. So, we moved to Arizona, and bought a house. Which, in California, we never could have done.
All of these cultural marxist unconstitutional policies of Affirmative Action, Orwellian “Diversity” & “DEI”(anti-Heritage American) have deadly consequences and this is an example. (I went through this bs after graduating from College) Look to South Africa and its collapse for our future unless these lunatics are not stopped.
Mel Gibson, Joe Rogan rip into Gov. Newsom for being unprepared for deadly LA fires: ‘Tax dollars probably went for Gavin’s hair gel’

No – tell the truth, Mel: Its all going to support illegals.
And every year, when a disaster get declared for whatever reason, Gavin knows the Fed Gov will bail him out. Its their annual musical chairs game.
As a third generation Californian, I bailed in 2021, taking my CalPERS pension with me, before the state passes a law prohibiting Calif pensions from being expatriated. Don’t think they’d love to do this.
It’s going on paper to support illegals, when it gets on paper at all.
“The homeless” also make a good cover for corruption.
They absolutely would love to do that, and they are no doubt going to get rid of Prop 13 as a result of this as well.
Yep $$$$ is going to the illegals still pouring into the country. NGOs and the UN facilitating this MUST be defunded and prosecuted for human trafficking.

Ha! Commiefornia spent 20 some-odd Billion dollars on the homeless?
How on Earth would it cost that much to buss mentally ill junkies to Florida and Texas?
This sounds a bit like money laundering to my PhD in Street Knowledge..
Hey DOGE, audit Cali, that should keep y’all on task the or a while..
Exactly.
The difference between the US and Ukraine is they quit pretending the money goes for any kind of legitimate cause at all.
Including cities and states that are sanctuaries for illegal aliens including illegals that have committed additional crimes once here!!! These are all Unconstitutional policies of the communist Democrats!!! JMO

IF President Trump chooses to give them Federal Funding I hope he puts some serious restrictions on those funds as well as requiring them to drop Sanctuary status, clean up forests, and do something about water retention.

You are flagged for your GD word. I don’t care what other cuss words you use, but using God’s name as a curse word, gets you flagged.
RSBN (Right Side Broadcasting Network) is the go-to site for President Trump’s public appearances.
They made a name for themselves by covering President Trump’s rallies from the beginning in 2015.
They are also a good source of information for President-elect Trump’s 2025 administration.
They can be watched at: https://www.rsbnetwork.com
Eh. When I watched yesterday’s homage to a past President I saw the fol:
An aged power structure the bulk of whom have led unproductive, self-centered post political career lives (in stark contrast to Carter) acting like churlish junior high schoolers.
All of them bowing to protocol/convention for seating! Time to restore the power structure’s subservience to deeper American conventions, traditions and values. I give Obama credit for talking to PDJT…while wondering why the media offered zero explanation for his wife’s absence.
This event was not about PDJT. I think he handled it well.
Lotta work to be done flushing the venal and mediocre power structure that ascended/replaced the immediate post WWII generation of leaders.
Side observation: the entire time I watched Melania looked like she was a cast-away alone on her own island; someone reflecting on the moment but at the same time couldn’t wait to escape the sideshow.
I saw four decades of American Decline seated next to the guy who has to clean up their mess as well.
Yup. But it was no accident he was seated next to PDJT.
Melania knows how to “remain with herself” at appropriate times. After all, she grew up with the camera.
What I saw at the funeral were 5 presidents, including the guy in the casket, that traitorously gave away 80% of our manufacturing and might to foreign countries. I saw one real President that actually wants to restore and Make America Great Again. President Trump wants to undo what those individual globalists have done.
May God continue to bless and guide President Donald J. Trump and keep him and his family safe from harm.
I wonder if in the process of MAHA can we please clip Big Sugars wings here in Florida?

It always surprised me that “conservatives” didn’t support conservation.
Republicans seem to be the first to be dismissive of any and all environmental regulations as unnecessary.
I love to hunt, farm, fish and walk around the still wild places with my cur.
Nearly every action of the Florida Republican’ts works against the bulk of my interests.
They have us in their sweet spot which is over a barrel.
“Whaddya gonna do? Vote for the Socialists?”
This really is stunning. Remember when they offered Helene victims $750. Will that cost to protect lives include giving residents funds for 6 months? January 20, can’t get here soon enough!
FJB on X
I’m announcing that the federal government will cover 100% of the cost of measures to protect lives and property in Southern California for six months.
I’ve told the Governor and officials to spare no expense and do whatever they need to contain the fires and protect families.
Calif is Dem-Dot-Gov’s sacred cow. Cali spends its annual billions on supporting illegals. In turn, Dem-Dot-Gov bails out Cali each and every year it proclaims its in a state of disaster.
Infuriating to say the least.
At the same time FEMA would not even answer the phone in North Carolina.
How much does California spend on illegal aliens, healthcare, education, housing, debt cards etc??? All that should be ended before giving such aid!!! If it was stopped many illegals would self deport!!! If we are to give California something get something in return!!! JMO
Just another turd to drop in PDJT’s lap.
Biden is not part of any solution. He continues to be part of the problem.
100%! No demand for changes and accountability.
Too bad a fast switch can’t be effected with stiffs laying in caskets! Whoops…I didn’t really mean that.
Spoken like a true politician…..”spare no expense”. All this will do is fatten the wallets of local civil servents *cough*.
Just think about this, the ppl who have been burned out are really in a pickle. Particularly if they have no insurance.
They still have to pay their mortgages even if their home is a pile of ashes.
And if laws are like those in NC, they also have to pay their full property taxes as if the home was still there.
Then they have to decide, to either walk away from everything, or dig deep and continue to pay their local government for the privilege of less than even marginal services. And add insult to injury, the government they are paying is the cause of the home owners loss in the first place.
This is nothing less than a stick em up in a dark alley with a kick in the teeth for good measure.
This may foment a revolt, juat sayin.
The Biden to California:
‘We’re sending you billions and billions of dollars. We’ll pay for everything. All of it. We’re sending equipment, helicopters and C-17s. We’re meeting right now to figure out how to send even more billions. The sky is the limit.’
The Biden to North Carolina:
‘Here’s $750 bucks–unless you have a Trump sign. And if you’re homeless, we’ll confiscate your kids.’
Don’t get me wrong. I’m glad California will get help to fix Newsom’s Negligent Mass Homicide–if he doesn’t steal it all, which is his usual practice.
But the contrast is staggering.
China Joe, Gaijin Gavin and their ilk have taken Blood Money to wreck this nation. It cries out to the Father and He will answer. Our God has Great Plans for us, Hallelujah! He even has a Great Surprise coming for Chy-Na…
Habakkuk 2:
9 “Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,
to set his nest on high,
to be delivered from the power of calamity!”
10 You have given shameful counsel to your house
by cutting off many peoples,
and forfeiting your life.
11 For the stone will cry out from the wall,
and the beam of the woodwork will answer it.
12 “Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshed
and establishes a city on iniquity!”
13 Is it not from the Lord of Hosts
that the people labor to feed fire,
and the nations weary themselves for nothing?
14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,
as the waters cover the seas.
Heavenly Father, You chose us to be alive right now for Your Great Reset. We say in Jesus’ Name “On earth as it is in Heaven!” Amen and Amen!
Fear not!
Such a shame. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. God bless NC
Amen!

Florida Voters Sue Gov. DeSantis For Failing to Call Special Elections https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/florida-voters-sue-gov-desantis-for-failing-to-call-special-elections/
Has Rubio resigned from the senate yet?
Hard to call an election if there is no vacancy.
For Gaetz.
Anyone in ron!’s orbit is part of the Sea Island Bootlicker Club, and we ain’t in it.
Rubio’s Senate seat will be appointed by Governor DeSantis as soon as it is vacant. I believe they’re talking about the 2 US House district special elections.
I thought the already set primaries(January 28th, 2025) and general vote (April 1st, 2025) for the 2 Special Elections of US Congressional Districts 1 and 6 were pretty timely as the candidates need time to run/ campaign. How quick did this group want them to be?
I don’t trust ron! “as far as I could throw my car” and The Florida Good Ol Boy Network of Politics have disappointed me to no end since I was old enough to pay attention.

Looks like one of Allah’s favourites to me.
Terrorism?
BREAKING:
The Mirror reports that the UK government’s counter-extremism unit has launched a probe in Elon Musk’s posts about the coverup of the migrant rape gang scandal in the country.
The Home Office has stepped up extra monitoring to assess content and the reach of what is being shared on the social media site X, especially in relation to accounts with large followings – including Mr Musk’s.
The counterterrorism unit has been involved in content analysis and wider risk assessment. The unit sits within the Homeland Security Group, whose “mission is to reduce national security risks to the UK’s people, prosperity and freedoms.”
A government source told the Mirror: “We keep a close eye on how disinformation and hate can proliferate, including online.”
The Mirror writes that ”following Mr Musk’s vile attacks on safeguarding minister Jess Phillips.
Ms Phillips has admitted Mr Musk – a key aide to Donald Trump – was “endangering” her after labelling her a “rape genocide apologist” and calling for her to be jailed.”
According to the newspaper, Minister Phillips has had close protection officers assigned to her and has been advised not to go out in public alone.
Looks like the UK has plenty of resources available to do threat assessments if politicians are involved but none of 12-year-old British working-class girls need protection from rape gangs…

G’Mornin’ Treepuhs, (hear my N’Hampsha accent)
The fires in California have me so bothered.. this is going to be a humanitarian crisis.
I know many will call me a conspiracy theorist but living up here in between Bernie and Fauxcahontas, I’ve seen too much.
I know that in the last term Donald Trump had Lynn Patton and Ben Carson digging around at HUD and the housing authority in NYC and what was revealed to those of us closely following it, was that NYC was basically so broke they were having Meatless Mondays because they couldn’t afford to feed the kids in schools meat 5 days a week.
So there is the background.
Then guess what, Covid hits and what city and state does one of the hardest and most ridiculous lockdowns, looking for a payout, it was NY.
This pattern likewise went on in Vermont, they did the same thing and then got the biggest chunk of money the state had ever gotten before.
So what happened there was a bail out.
Today we see a huge chunk of California on fire.. another state with deep money problems.
We have a lot of deep blue cities in these screwed up states that are teetering on the edge of bankruptcy..
I read somewhere in my travels that a state cannot declare bankruptcy.. I don’t know if a city can? but many sure are.
Anyone that knows how the mob works (and we sure do up here) knows that things in trouble burn down..
I’m just looking at what sort of purposeful accidents will befall all these broke cities and states looking for a massive cash infusion to save their asses.
This is business as usual, but frankly, I don’t see how we can do this given the state of the nation’s debt and the scale of the messes.
I mean at some point, the smart parents will cut off the bratty kid and tell him to go get a freakin’ job.
We’re certainly there.
And here is my question:
What is going to happen to the insurance industry?
I cannot fathom how they’ll deal with this crisis in CA due to the scale of it and add to this:
Recall that FEMA said in NC that it has no money- so how will FEMA help CA?
If you think about it, replacing an entire area on the scale of this CA fire, I don’t think this was ever what insurance was designed to do. It seems entirely an unrealistic idea..
Part of the problem of what is going on in the insurance industry is that it’s being expected to do far more than it was designed to do.
It feels like we’ve got big insurance issues coming up, like the entire system as we knew it needing to be changed to reflect the reality of today, but what is that? who knows.. *shrugs*
Sheesh, the more we know, the more we wish we didn’t know.
“Today we see a huge chunk of California on fire.. another state with deep money problems.”
Just the other day, Newsom announced that California had such a massive Budget Surplus that they were going to start giving money away to everybody.
That is called “pre-manufacturing a Criminal Alibi” and is evidence of guilt.
Ah ha!
Very good point !!
I commend you for the effort you are putting into this.
Excellent perspective. My house insurance went up 200 per month in Oregon for no explainable reason. Insurance is a nationwide pool, this needs to be changed. I have no solutions though. How can we all keep up with hikes like this on one item alone?
Keep your eye on Chicago.
MNN BREAKING…
*LAPD ARRESTS FOREIGN GANGSTER ARSONIST CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF LOOTING
THE GOVERNOR WILL BE RELEASED ON HIS OWN RECOGNIZANCE
<grins>
The Kenneth Fire ignited in the Woodland Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles on Thursday and covered 960 acres with zero percent containment as of Thursday night, according to Cal Fire.
California has always had “an arson problem.”
But, they also have a “forest management problem” because they do not go into those forests, conduct controlled burns, and otherwise remove the accumulated deadwood fuel. (Which, if anyone had their wits about them, could have profitably become “papermaking pulp.”)
They are both part of a containment problem, because the fires are natural, and humans are natural, and we’ve always had fires and we’ve always had arsonists, but in this case the fires are to big to handle because we added to the conditions that cause uncontrollable fires.
“and humans are natural”

Jesper Joergensen: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know
https://heavy.com/news/2018/07/jesper-joergensen-jorgensen/
Jesper Joergensen, a 52-year-old non U.S. citizen from Denmark who wrote repeatedly about anarchy on social media, is accused of starting the Spring Fire in Colorado, which is the most active among multiple blazes that are causing damage to that state.
The wildfire has caused multiple disruptions in Colorado, including evacuations, destroyed homes, and road closures. The fire, which started on June 27, 2018, had grown to 40,000 acres in size by June 30. According to ABC News, the fire is located in “a rural, mountainous region in southern Colorado near Great Sand Dunes National Park. The wildfire is about two hours south of Colorado Springs and three hours south of Denver.”

Charges dropped in case of Danish man accused of starting Spring Creek fire near La Veta in 2018
Jesper Joergensen has been at the Colorado Mental Health Institute in Pueblo, but was expected to be released on Monday afternoon.
Apr 4, 2022
https://coloradosun.com/2022/04/04/jesper-joergensen-danish-spring-creek-fire-charges/
A judge on Monday dismissed criminal charges against a Danish man accused of starting a Colorado wildfire that destroyed about 140 homes in 2018 after he was repeatedly found unable to stand trial.
It was not clear what would happen to Jesper Joergensen, who has been diagnosed with delusional disorder, once he is released from the state mental hospital, which was expected to happen later in the day, but he will apparently be a free man.
Pulp, and or as bio-fuel to create electricity, or even bio-char, to produce an incredibly effective soil enhancer that would not only build the soil beyond imagination, it would, gasp, sequester carbon in the soil.
All Leftist solutions are an absolute poverty of hope and sense.
The Sunset Fire, which erupted Wednesday in Hollywood Hills, prompted a new round of mandatory evacuations and threatened iconic landmarks. By Thursday, all evacuation orders for the fire were lifted and the blaze had been fully contained, according to officials.
Watch this? Satellite photos? Real? Fake? The three fires explode.
[video src="https://m3.gab.com/media_attachments/ba/d2/32/bad232488ff9d7de24dc8b8e94e13b1d.mp4" /]
It is quite obvious that – once again – these were acts of arson.
Unfortunately it is certainly not the first time.
But, California also does not practice good forest-management practices to prevent the accumulation of fuel. Therefore, when a fire starts – or is set – the whole environment explodes.
Other states who have “desert forest,” such as Arizona and Oregon, handle things very differently. (And yet, they sometimes also have disastrous fires.)

“‘PizzaGate’ Gunman Edgar Welch Fatally Shot by North Carolina Police During Traffic Stop”
Excerpts:
Edgar Maddison Welch was sentenced to four years in prison in June 2017 for an incident involving an AR-15 rifle and a revolver. Welch fired into a door of a Northwest Washington DC pizza restaurant, sending employees and customers scattering, according to a Department of Justice release in 2017.
Welch plead guilty to a federal charge of interstate transportation of a firearm and ammunition and a District of Columbia charge of assault with a dangerous weapon. He was sentenced by now-Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
According to a FOX News report from that timeframe, Welch’s shooting at the door conveniently hit a computer that was stored in the closet with a digitized keypad for “bags” and a “coat closet.”
