Dear Heavenly Father please keep Our President Donald J. Trump safe! Amen 🙏
It still makes me angry my 2017 IPad refuses to acknowledge President Trump but willingly wants to add biden or obama. And I have to skirt around to make them a little b.o..
It seems the liberal world thinks they are still living in a biden administration and are pretending that President Trump, his cabinet and WE conservatives don’t exist. Consequently to them all that President Trump has done is not real.
They are also pretending President Trump didn’t win in a resounding defeat of their liberal ideology with the popular vote and a mandate for freeing this country of their crap. JMHO
Oh, but these leftists are still pretending the 2024 election was not a mandate at all, and President Trump only won by a smidge.
These are the same people who pretended that Joe Bribe ’em was a rocket scientist and Kamala was not a ditzy lightweight. They also go on pretending that the inexplicable 20 million voters anomaly in 2020 has nothing whatsoever to do with massive election fraud.
Why did Bribe’em find it necessary to pardon his family and much of his own cabinet?
Talk about pretending not to know things!
Amen!
AMEN
Amen 🙏🏻
Amen
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
Amen

“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.
By the truths they stomp on shall ye know them.
The Holy See Press Office issued the following medical update on Pope Francis on Saturday evening:
The condition of the Holy Father continues to be critical. Therefore, as explained yesterday, the Pope is not out of danger. This morning, Pope Francis experienced an asthma-like respiratory crisis of prolonged intensity, which required the administration of high-flow oxygen.
Today’s blood tests also revealed thrombocytopenia, associated with anemia, which required the administration of blood transfusions.
The Holy Father remains alert and spent the day in an armchair, although he is more uncomfortable than yesterday. At the moment, the prognosis remains guarded.
He has stomped on many truths, but who am I to…🤷
While I am not Catholic, I am still praying for a John Paul III.
I am a Catholic and have been praying for a John Paul III since 2005.
I’m American, don’t take it personal.
U.S. bishops sue Trump administration over refugee funding freeze
https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/262293/us-bishops-sue-trump-administration-over-refugee-funding-freeze
I’m also American, so I don’t take it personally… but those “Bishops” I would wager are BIG BELIEVERS of Liberation Theory which is for all practical purposes Communish in a Catholic Disguise.
Good example of a Bishop who believes in LIberation Theory is Pope Francis.
He also believes in open borders except for the Vatican of course! Most Democrats, liberals and progressives living in gated communities with private security are also for open borders! They have a sense of security until some illegal alien gang overpowers the doughnut eating security guard at the gate! Thanks to Tom Homan that probably won’t happen now! JMO
Liberation theology
Thanks!
Arch Bigop Viganò was excommunicated so there was no possibility of his becoming Pope…. IMHO
Praying for the mortal souls of these Roman Catholic Bishops.
.
May the Lord of Host turn each of their hearts to HIM, and me too.
Amen!
Repent!
FYI Abe Lincoln’s horse was Old Bob
The Vatican needs paying!
People oft quote the fall of Rome, including myself, but it didn’t vanish, nor did its perversions. It became a church!
Yea well I’m a Catholic American and those Bishops can go pound sand.
I also find it decidedly coincidental that the Popes health is fading right as PDJT take over the reigns of power. Almost like it’s is the force driving him to the grave. I don’t believe the pope is a good man unfortunately.
Unfortunately the election of Bergolio was as rigged as the 2020 US Presidential election. The internal destruction of the Church began at least 100 years ago.
Archbishop Vigano is a Truth teller and he was excommunicated for it.
I’ve often wondered if Pope Benedict’s resignation was forced on him to get Bergolio in. Sadly there’s evil behind the vatican walls.
In the late 50’s believe, Padre Pio was quoted as saying “the devil is in the pope’s slippers…”
Certainly apropos
I’m inclined to agree, but God allowed both to happen.
I’m Born Again. Don’t take it personal.
“Depart from Me for I never knew you, you who practice lawlessness.” (Matt. 7:23)
I am Praying He Accepts Jesus Christ as His Savior
He has certainly stomped on the faithfulness by his outright blasphemy of scripture so…you’re definitely good.
Other popes have sinned in different ways but has there ever been one who has contradicted scripture like this one?
Not many will grieve Pope Francis.
The true church will breathe a sigh of relief and think ‘good riddance’.
Francis has been the antithesis of what a Pope should be.
He has embraced every leftist perverse agenda out there, so much so that he might as well have been Øbama’s press secretary.
The spiritual leader of the Catholic church actually reassured atheists that it is not necessary to believe in Jesus Christ in order to be saved. How do we reconcile that sentiment to the teachings of the Holy Bible?
The pope living behind massive walls insists that open borders human trafficking is a noble endeavor. Turns out drug and human trafficking is also a billion dollar enterprise.
The pope also chided people during the plandemic that God wants them to get vaccinated. This man is either evil personified or he a blithering idiot.
Neither look bodes well for the Catholic church.
I am Catholic and I pray that he has a deathbed conversion from his evil ways before it is too late for his soul.
I read in the Forward years ago that he went under Liberal Psychiatric care in the 70’s. Was his mind tampered with? Its quite possible. I know from Bella Dodd’s School Of Darkness reveals that over 1100 communists/pedophiles were sent into the Priesthood by the Luciferian Communist Party, and we ended up seeing the results from that with the Pedophiles in the Priesthood which destroyed the Catholic Church.
Interesting! I have heard many say Christianity is Socialist
I know wiki🤪, but the author of the Pledge of Allegiance was a Christian socialist.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Francis_Bellamy&wprov=rarw1
Jesus was crucified by the church. Nuff said. Lucifer targets them the hardest. The manual goes into great detail about who should lead and basically you need to be without any fault, why? Because he is coming for you.
As a coach I learned early on your feelings are useless in helping kids in sports you must use common sense, discipline, structure, repetition. I wanted to put kids on the mound or first base, second base, short stop but soon saw them demoralized by failure because they couldn’t do it. You use practice to build them and still some just can’t. I felt bad but the kid felt worse and the kids around blamed me. We found spots and some rise some feel content. The drive was not there.
Same in life, especially leading people spiritually. You’re not going to see it coming, and it will destroy you and everyone around if you don’t know Christ well. If you dipped your toe in hells pool, Satan will make that your wallpaper.
I missed something here. I thought Christ was crucified by the Romans?
At the behest of the religious leaders of Jerusalem. The Romans were just the tool to accomplish the task because the Pharisees couldn’t legally do it themselves.
Bella Dodd’s testimony to Congress can be found in this article…

I am afraid he has been a wolf among the sheep.
🙏🏻
Can a new Pope restore Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò who was excommunicated by Pope Francis? Just wondering? I’m not Catholic.
Yes. And a future Pope could declare Pope Francis an anti-pope, which is what Vigano has claimed-that he is illegitimate. Francis has said God is a God of surprises. Maybe they’re both right. We’ll just have to stay tuned.
Pope John Paul II excommunicated Archbishop Lefebvre. Pope Benedict XVI lifted the excommunication against the 4 Lefebvre bishops, but Lefebvre himself was dead, so too late.
Maquis, so profound!
This one, even if a little lengthy posted comment, provides the perfect responce to so many negative nellie concern troll comments, its great!
The team Our President Trump has assembled and pushed for/stood by thru the confirmation process are fantastic, as well as those who needed no confirmation, and the accomplishment so far are amazing!

I watched the confirmation process. It was amusing, absurd,and weird.
.
Bernie Sanders yelling:
“Are you supportive of these onesies?!?!?”
This was epic. He looked like the mad scientist – hair askew, flailing his arms, sputtering, eyes bugging, crazed.
Megyn Kelly was in the audience and was seen laughing. RFK then began laughing.
The world saw Bernie’s madness. The craziness of the Left has overtaken them.
As a member of Bernie’s generation I have come to the conclusion that most of the time it’s better to keep your mouth shut.
Bernie reminds me of our governor in Wisconsin. Governor Evers is just fine with that trans nonsense.
Governor Evers doesn’t want any illegal aliens deported from my state. I want all of them deported.
He’s a former school teacher and he’s full of propaganda among other things.

What about all the leftist messages on clothing?
Kennedy should have said “thank you senator, I will be proud to represent free speech onesies”.
Blessings to Stillwater, Maquis and Dutchman!

Ukraine frontlines update……
Military Situation In Ukraine On February 22, 2025 (Map Update)South Front
👆
❄️ Cold War II 🛑 Second Rejection ⚔️ Russia Prepares To Cut Off The Salient 📅 Military Summary 2025.02.22
👆
The military situation “link” was a most interesting read.
Comparing the maps with the SOVIET campaign, Post Battle of Kursk 1943, the similarities are striking … in the Germans held their own pretty much across the front except the Don River basin and points West from the point. the SOVIETS applied pressure across the from to freeze reserves and then crushed the Southern German Army Groups on the Strategic defensive in the South … unhinging the entire front … requiring the Germans to rush their reserves to the South making their entire front so brittle that it broke wide open North to South.
The other striking bit of “information” is the casualty reports … not so much the numbers but the types of weapons targeted by the Russians. As in WWII, the Ukrainians (like the Germans) enjoyed a significant advantage in Artillery Fire Control and Munitions Systems … thanks to the NATO Troops manning their Artillery Units, Ukrainians have a similar advantage. That advantage (as in WWII) is the glue holding the Ukrainian Front together … in WWII after Kursk 1943, the SOVIETS went after German Artillery units with a vengeance using ATTACK aircraft, LIGHT BOMBERS and FIGHTER BOMBERS armed with 20 or more 50-100lb Bombs wiping out whole batterys of guns, today it’s drones and cluster munitions … read the short casualty reports and note the number of reports where 5+ artillery systems were destroyed … where ever the number of artillery (glue) systems falls below a critical level …. the Ukrainian Army Units give way to another “short” Russian Advance.
After a few “crumbling” short advances the the size of the advances starts to grow. The “crumbling” advance was the WWII Soviets answer to the need to reduce offensive operational casualties.

When the impact of the few “crumbling” short advances hits a critical level …. the size and pace of the advances will start to grow. The “crumbling” advance was the WWII Soviets answer to the need to reduce offensive operational casualties.
The term “crumbling attack” is actually described in Frunze Academy’s Military Science literature.
People ridiculing the Russian Army because of their failure in the Asymmetric War in Afghanistan are ignoring a very key point … the Frunze Academy trained Generals of the Russian Military are primarily trained in and pretty good at “Conventional” Operations once they sort of the impacts of the technologies involved.
The Ukraine War is a CONVENTIONAL WAR.
Unlike the US Military War Colleges and Academies …. European, Russian and even some Far Eastern Military COLLEGES treat war as a science, requiring courses in technology, history and study of military operations using scientific as well as mathematical context in those studies.
Twelve Traditions of U.S. Citizens
While this transliteration of the Twelve Traditions of AA doesn’t fit exactly, there are some good principles reinforced by the exercise. The Twelve steps and Traditions of AA came from the Oxford Group — a group of theologians seeking to apply the principles of discipleship from scripture to the process of refining character.
1. Our common welfare should come first; personal recovery depends upon American unity.
2. For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority — a loving God as He may express Himself in our group conscience. Our leaders are but trusted servants; they do not govern.
3. The only requirement for United States membership is a desire to live by the principles of God, Truth and the U.S. Constitution
4. Each group should be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or the United States as a whole.
5. Each group has but one primary purpose — to carry its message to the Citizen who still suffers from being codependent and/or abused by their government and greedy abusive people and organizations
6. An American group ought never endorse, finance, or lend the American name to any related facility or outside enterprise, lest problems of money, property, and prestige divert us from our primary purpose.
7. Every American group ought to be fully self-supporting, declining outside contributions.
8. The United States should remain forever non-professional, but our service centers may employ special workers.
9. United States as such, ought never be organized; but we may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve only for the defense of the nation or specific projects, or to help our citizens have the freedom to pursue Life, Liberty, and Happiness
10. The United States has no opinion on outside issues; hence the name of America ought never be drawn into public controversy.
11. Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films.
12. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities.
I’m a lifelong MAGA American who voluntarily served my Country and was Honorably Discharged and your list, to me, are mostly “NO”s. I don’t want any part of your “world”. In your defense, most of your conditions are vague.
Atheists are out? (#2; #3)
Mentally ill and the infirm? Out? (#7)
As I said, it doesn’t fit exactly. And I’m not trying to make it fit, or intending to argue either. It is food for thought, inspired by Maquis’ “battered conservatives no more”
The Constitution, almost every founding document, and almost every oath presupposes that our “inalienable rights” are given by a Creator. Yet the constitution does not demand an allegiance to any God.
And while we do in this country offer a safety net for the vulnerable, it is generally healthier when we as individuals and groups seek to be as self sufficient as possible, even thought we be stronger in an interdependent relationship with each other.
Well said. A clear exposition of what I consider to be Americanism. A man’s fate depends on his own hands and the blessings that God gives those hands, as He sees fit. On this Earth, God has given us everything we need, and all we need to do is recognize those things it and use them wisely.
Battered sounds like abuse. There are many types of abuse.
Substance abuse, child abuse, emotional abuse, spiritual abuse, and so on.
Some abuse doesn’t leave marks and can’t be covered up with masks.
I’m not a credentialed expert but some abusers need enablers.

Outstanding post, doc
So much Good News…
Kash ATF Director?
Zelensky’s knees buckling?
All of Trumps picks getting in.
G-L-O-R-I-O-U-S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our Great and Glorious President Trump has ALL THE CARDS, hence all anyone attempting to oppose him can do, is bluff and then fold, when he calls.
So much winning,…
Nobody has been arrested.
The price of eggs remains high.
The deportation rate is too low.
– Talk me off the ledge!!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Are there deportation and self-deporting numbers being posted anywhere. I’d like to see a goal chart
Biden deported more in one month is what I saw yesterday. Don’t know where that figure came from but what is being done is woeful. Forget targetting criminals they are being warned. Need to go after any illegal. They are taking resources that should be sent to disaster areas like mine NO 5 star hotels are being offered up for the flood victims. It’s a hard cot in a cold gym with 5 patio heaters in a big basketball gym. A red cross thin blanket and a pillow if you are lucky. I contacted My Pillow and asked for a donation……….I’ve seen nothing sent so far.
We don’t account for the illegals crossing the border that Biden had. Add 47,300 (Biden’s Dec. 2023 number), to Trump’s monthly total just by shutting the border down.
That’s a good point, but we were promised deportations AND close border.
You miss read it said abort/s
Going after employers of illegals would be the most effective way to get the Self Deportation Train rolling.
Jobs are the main magnet.
Did you see where they picked up illegals living in what amounted to a side shed at a restaurant-bakery in south Texas and deported them.
They arrested the owners and they were placed under $100,000 bond.
What is needed is to have ICE with holding vans at every exit of a 5 star hotel in NYC only for illegal aliens and as the occupiers leave arrest them until that hotel is empty! Then go to the next hotel exclusively for illegal aliens!!! Every illegal alien arrested needs finger printed and photographed so they can never be allowed back in legally!!! JMO
Need to round up those 5 ☆ hotel owners as well
The mayor of Chicago is hiding the illegals. He sends them to the suburbs to hide.
He was doing the same thing last year too when they hosted the DNC convention. Tom Homan needs to come to those suburbs.
I watched Waukegan turn into Mexico more than 30 years ago. Schools and everything else.
Zion is infested with illegals and gangs too. I moved back to the North woods of Wisconsin after 50 years in Illinois, and these small towns up here need to be cleaned out too.
https://redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2024/05/06/brandon-johnson-plays-hide-the-illegals-ahead-of-the-dnc-outraged-chicago-residents-have-other-ideas-n2173841
Learn some patience. Those particular things cannot happen as quickly as you wish. That we are this far along in only a month is a miracle in itself.
Yep… the invasion has been going on since the 1960’s… fixing the problem ain’t gonna be done overnight…
Price of eggs is high because 60 million egg-laying hens were murdered by the previous administration ghouls.
Bird flu is Birdsh!t.
Maybe Trump can birth replacement hens at a faster rate than farmers.
Agreed Bird Flu B.S.
Here in Greater Vancouver B.C. at a major chain, 0n a Thursday over 65s get 20% off non sale items.
A dozen large cost $2.80 ( Can) $2.00 U.S.with the 20% discount.
A ten minute drive into the country one can buy fabulous farm fresh for $5/6 ( Can) $3.50 approx U.S.per dozen, sometimes we luck out and get double yolkers.
I bring this up not to create envy, simply to support your post.
We have many issues north of the 49 and get hosed on numerous goods but it appears that certain States, get really shafted by Big Agriculture and government malfeasance.
Cheers!
Store bought eggs pale in comparison to my neighbor’s.
Store yolks are pale, and no one ever speaks of butter. Butter is no longer yellow, its almost white fat!
And those store bought eggs are very old. And scramble up like rubber.
Literally
Read that as “price of everything is still high.”
What exactly are we supposed to be celebrating?
Powerful speeches?
Executive orders that governors are saying that they won’t obey?
Epstein list on Pam’s desk?
– Yay!! Golden chainsaws and parties at the Waldorf to everyone!!!
and lil state like mine suffering unimaginable damages can’t get help. I urge ALL here to contact the WH next week comment line and BEG for WV to be declared a disaster area. KY got their’s and why WV who is just a bridge away from the KY flooding can’t get it I don’t understand. Everything has been sent according to the governor who seems to be another doolus fool who thinks $ being sent to local emergency shelters is all the people gonna need. He’s so stupid I regret a vote for him.
You Hillary shills are too funny and too obvious.
And “communist”, don’t forget to call me communist too. 🙄
“Everyone who disagrees with me is
racistcommunist.” 😒Go ahead, call me names … “I don’t really care, Margareth!”
Just be honest with yourself and see what is really being done.
Join Pam and Kash going to celebrate … while the “list” is on her desk.
I would like to ask you to post a list of all your accomplishments in the last month just so we all can have a better understanding of your anguish and frustration with the pace of PDJT’s.
It is called “reciprocal petulance”.
I don’t work for you. That’s the difference.
Amen to that
Welllll….I’ll take up your point up with the thousands of people whose civil service employment is being terminated! As well with the deportees in Columbia and the partiers assembling in GITMO! Laissez les bons temps rouler! It’s all make believe!!
The agency heads being relieved of leadership? Just rumors.
You’re drifting into extremist territory yourself. Yes… a lot more needs to be accomplished. Noted.
Val1: Get away from that ledge. Looking down does you no good.
During Tom Homan speech at CPAC
yesterday he stated that 20k have
been deported.
President Trump has only been
in office over a little over a month. 💁♀️🤷♀️
He did not state how many are in holding
facilities waiting to be processed and
sent out.
Logistics…logistics.💁♀️🤷♀️
You just don’t go and raid a house,
arrest a criminal in Chicago and
then fly them to the border or
back to their homeland.🤦♀️🤦♀️
I am familiar with all that is
involved in the transport of
hundreds of criminals at one
time from one location to another
and all I can say is that……
They are doing a fantastic job!
To those not familiar —-aka clueless
it may seem otherwise 😃😃💁♀️
The other good news is that the
number of got aways is down to
48 in one day!
And he expressed his aim for zero
got aways!
Quite an improvement.👏👏
Right now they are probably working
on the logistics on how to deport the
large numbers currently in housing
facilities—including women and children.
That has got to be a nightmare planning
on how to deal with that logistically across
the US 😵💫 😵💫 😬
Yes, the biden regime killed off even the healthy layers because they “might” get the bird flu…
Any Farmer could have told them that even if the bird flu exists, it would not affect all of the layers; the survivors would have a natural immunity to the “bird flu”, resulting in “herd immunity”…
“The price of eggs remains high.”
At what point were we at the peak of “lets kill all the hens because of this bird flu”, and then, at what point were corrective measures taken to refresh the egg supply pipeline? Pullets generally take anywhere from 18 to 24 weeks to go from a bird fresh in this world to producing a fresh egg in the box. This, of course, will very with breed, with the more prolific ones at the faster end of the range.
Now do “gas” … and when you’re done keep going down the list and find an excuse to everything.
The pretend must continue.
“The pretend must continue.”
Democrats obviously will continue to pretend their ideas were not rejected totally in the last election,
Well, if she says so … It must be true.
Don’t let reality get on the way of your pretending.
You so bad! Everyone loves a cliche that loses all substance in the absence of deep factual support, on the scene awareness, recognition of the dynamics involved.
Cry me a river!
You aren’t paying attention. Gas is down substantially, period.
You’ve forgotten outing of bureaucrats, judges and politicians. Open curtain on profligate spending. Deportations and raids. DEI firings and closures.
You just like to bitch, but know full well that actual solutions and recourse take time.
I’m not paying attention … I’m too busy driving on the road and paying the same or more for diesel and food.
Is Val short for Valium?
Things like that don’t happen overnight, just as the price rises didn’t happen overnight. Those price rises were planned by the Dems while Trump was still in office. They shut the country down!
My grocery/household supplies bill was down 14% from those prior for well over a year.
My recent grocery staple items are up about 5 cents to fifty cents per item, in the last week…
The short term movements of gas (natural or gasoline?) prices lose import when viewed from the larger perspective of capital investment in CAPEX, refineries, bulk shipping, pipelines, strategic reserve rebuild, sanctions, global energy market movements, etc.
It’s uninformed and, frankly, more revealing of the person wagging the finger.
Not directed at you btw. Got tired responding to the esteemed, if psychologically damaged, champion of energy supply, demand and pricing.
Gas has not gone down in NY or NJ from my experience. Heating oil cost is also very high.
$3.39 for regular in Oak Park, IL…
I’ve been used to eating 6 eggs every morning for a long time now.
I pay $2.50 per dozen for large eggs. My relatives have plenty of hens and lots of eggs.
It takes a while to replace the MILLIONS of chickens that the Biden administration slaughtered because they were near another chicken that had bird flu instead of letting the fowl survive it and get immunity from that strain of flu. Freakin’ Flu.
Remember when the flu was considered a little worse than a cold? Now, they kill chickens who get the flu or who are near a chicken that gets the flu.
It took us 50 years to get here. It may take a little while longer to get us out of here.
>>It takes a while to replace the MILLIONS of chickens that the Biden administration slaughtered…
How long does it take, then? When did the slaughter take place? What is the age of a laying hen?
I’ve never seen the numbers, but at some point — soon — this will no longer be a believable excuse.
Wht don’t you buy some chicks, get a coop and see how long it takes to have some laying hens. Then you will never have to worry about eggs again.
Are you telling Val1 to be self sufficient? She/he doesn’t seem capable!
Its the perfect time of year to buy chicks, and a $2000 coup is not needed. A 100 gallon deck box flipped on its side is sufficient for 3 hens. Just make some dividers.
I’m afraid we live in a society where if it isn’t perfect, it isn’t wanted! I’m off to dig a few football size sweet potatoes to have with dinner today!
They’re selling chicks at Fleet Farm right now in Northern Wisconsin.
You need to have a cage around the coop because they need to roost at night and be safe from predators.
Yes, but 1/4 inch chicken wire is cheap enough. People make excuses not to take care of their own needs. $150 could set you on the way to eggs and meat. Currently that’s 15 packs of a dozen eggs?
Search engines are your friend.
What is the age of a laying hen?
It usually takes 4-5 months for a hen to start laying, and that’s without added hormones.
Within a couple of months from the on-start of laying, hens tend to lay 2 eggs every 3 days- that is an average for hens whose protein intake is sufficient.
Hens tend to lay less frequently when the days are shorter (less sunlight during the 24 hour period).
Some hens quit laying altogether during the winter months, especially the farther north you go.
It is difficult for chicks to survive when it’s freezing outdoors.
Chickens are fairly easy to raise.
The main concern is predators- hawks, fox, raccoon, owl, etc.
^^^That’s^^^ for home raised hens.
Not sure about commercial egg operations.

and by state has been left behind after massive flooding. 8 days now while only state resources are being provided. No federal disaster declaration and our Governor last night said he’s done all he could do. We are on our own. Cajun Navy is here doing like they did in NC. We are asking them to try to get some camper contributions so if anyone here has a camper they could contribute to our effort it would be appreciated. It’s been so cold that the muck is frozen, every thing is frozen to the ground, the water system has not been available in much of the area and to what places that do have water even the power washers won’t move frozen stuff. The state National Guard has not been given instructions to aide .. only to pick up debris that is left beside the road, they can’t come onto private property.
I so know now how NC felt and I’m so thankful I kept donating to Cajun Navy …some NC residents have already started sending care packages to us
Williamson Field House, Williamson WV is the main contribution intake center for our residents if anyone wants to do Amazon and have it delivered. Baby Wipes and Diapers and any kind of baby formula is very much needed. Also, blankets, heaters, towels, cleaning supplies like bleach and also water proof duck boots in every size.
My own water just came back on yesterday
also our only Stray Shelter run by volunteers was completely destroyed. They need a camper trailer, they need kennels, they need leashes, pet food, cat food, beds etc anything a stray no kill shelter would need.
Kathy Thompson Caudill on FB and SAVEOURSTRAYS is the organization.
I feel that I’m having a nervous breakdown. I just lost my son a couple years ago, my own home was hit by lighning in Jan in the last storm and now this. I’m completely ready to go ask to be committed for my own sanity. I’m ready to just say its time to check out of this place.
The destruction is unreal, the lack of resources and the lack of care from those who could send aide is mindboggling.
SamaratainsPurse is here, Churchs of God are here, I see no Catholic Organizations offering any aide.
The need is enormous so pray for my people, I look for some suicides to start here soon, the desperation in the air is so thick and people are just wondering around with wide eyes and desperate looks on their faces.
I am so very sorry for all you are going through. If I wasn’t on the other side of the country I would be there to help. Are you safe and able to live in your home right now? If there are local organizations that have amazon wish lists for donations perhaps you can post those links with information here. Sending you hugs and prayers.
I lost my son almost 10yrs,ago. There is nothing worse than losing a child or grandchild. I will donate through amazon and pray for you and WV 💙
A federal disaster declaration begins with the Governor making a state declaration and requesting fed support. Jim Justice has not done this to the best of my knowledge.

Thanks, I am behind the curve.
Slowly at first, then all at once.
Ever try to stop, and then get going in reverse, a freight train?
The Ship of State is huge and has a lot of momentum.
Some of my lib family have been complaining about inflation being high. I don’t recall any complaints about this during the Reign of Sleepy.
That was about their attack, IIRC …
A freight train only goes in “reverse” when the driver moves to the other side and starts driving, not just talking and celebrating. It must be a real and effective change.
–“– Talk me off the ledge!!”–
Nah, you seem to enjoy being on your ledge.
But after reading all your complaining posts this morning that followed this one, I would say that if you took all those complaints and tied them together they would be long enough to enable you to safely ascend or descend off your self induced ledge–Choice is yours.
Life is what you make it, not what others make it for you.
The “ledge” was a play on the Right”s meme, “change my mind”…
I know exactly where I am and what is going on around me. No pretending here.
Now let’s see if you can defend your position as well as you can attack those who disagree with you.
Well, let’s see:
My position was/is “Life is what you make it, not what others make it for you.” I believe that stands all by itself without need to “defend it”. I had/have no intention of wanting to talk you off a ledge or “change your mind” as I believe that is more than self evident in my response- “choice is yours”.
As to your posit of “… as well as you attack those who disagree with you.” I had/have no idea why you why you believe I attacked you, nor have you explained why you do not agree with my position so how could I have known you “disagree” with it?
So here’s my new “position” after reading your latest response:
Sorry you felt I attacked you for stating my opinion, kindly accept my apologies.
My original opinion continues to stand on its own;
And I’m delighted for you that you feel that you “know exactly where I am and what is going on around me. No pretending here.”
well, it has only been a month, that is not a heck of a lot of time….. until his people were confirmed, he cannot go full throttle as they would make it difficult for him to get those confirmations…. I bet things start moving a lot faster..
Even though many are awake, many are not, and he is definitely setting up the “realization” that so much has been bad for so long with our government …. once he gets most of the activist judges out it will be Katy Barr the Door…. it cannot look like retribution in any way…. I believe the arrests are definitely coming…. and hopefully charges of treason coming as well.
I have friends in cites that are seeing many less people driving badly and in stores…. the illegals are hiding or leaving…. I believe the snowball is starting to roll down hill…. as for eggs, they killed and are still killing MILLIONS of chickens, until some chickens are raised and begin laying…. there will not be enough…..
Be patient, trust God, and look around, things ARE happening.
Val1: The world is what it is. Your life is what you make of it.
Then voting was futile.
Val, it’s never a good look to be the common denominator. When you find yourself arguing with the entire room, it’s best to leave the room. You’re in a bad mood. We get it. Let it go. Go on a walk or something, but for everyone’s sake, please move away from the keyboard (or as you call it, the ledge). Have a nice day.
Val doesn’t seem to be having much success at going through the back door to tell us how great things would be if only we had voted for Kamala.
You know what midge, Val has every right to comment how she feels, without being criticized.
And for those who find her so negative, be constructive or roll and scroll.
It looks like Val, Clarion and oldersoul attempt to spread discontent daily.
Even though the confirmations are going exceedingly well and only a month has passed.
I hear they may have a more positive reception at Bluecry.
Shaking my head, Val1. It appears that no one has ever read your comments any other time but today. You’ve made many comments before that were not negative. Today is just a bad day for you? You get a pass from me, because we all have those bad days and everybody doesn’t have a perfect life.
The communist news media has already convinced you that we are losing, you may as well go ahead and jump…
C’mon man….
– Talk me off the ledge!!
How about go ahead and jump.
Be quick about it.

I pretty much think this Ukraine thing is working out as planned from the outset goal. They put Zelensky in there as the rubber man. World powers always intended to take out young men who could do work.
The only thing they didn’t plan on was President Trump, but HE CAUGHT THEM ALL in the four years he had as a ninth inning stretch.
The Progressive Globalist plan was to rebuild Ukraine into a new, zero carbon green machine with all the best alternative fuels they could muster to the tune of $1 trillion (mere peanuts for the peasants). All brand spanking new 15 minute cities with the creme de la creme of world research, technology, AI, all the graft one can stand, and pocket all the proceeds, leave the Nazi’s behind to torment specialized targets. Gain all the mineral wealth. Make a Universal Playground for Trans/PornWorld and pocket any proceeds (which was projected to be in the trillions.) Foment a coup against Russia, expand, expand, expand. Promises, promises. Use the West as cannon fodder, reduce the excess population. A few more pandemics and election hub of the world.
The only difference is now the payor and payee. They will settle for mineral rights which was the only ultimate goal.
President Trump nominated congressman Matt Gaetz. Bondi is now in his position.
Prof Jeffrey Sachs Address to the EU Parliament Yesterday Sends Shockwaves Across Europe-
Basically, he said the EU and NATO were delusional to think Ukraine was going to defeat Russia and that President Trump is ending the conflict whether they like it or not!
Pretty short and sweet…
The table in the kitchen writes the menu.
The tables in the dining room are on the menu.
And the periodic table adds the element of surprise 🙂
I have a heavy crush on you WM 😍
Can you expound? Is your comment related to Jeffrey Sachs?
I thought that was pretty profound. He is an effective, direct speaker. I am not qualified to offer an opinion on the accuracy of what he said.
Just went back while the edit window was still open and read Clarion’s comments. I think Maquis is using Sundance’s words to say that Sachs is writing the menue. Sachs speaks like he thinks he is the smartest man in the world. He does not recognized our Presidents title, calling him “Trump”.
My little bit there is an addendum to Sundance’s epic analogy to the structure of our State Department and CIA as a single restaurant.
He noted that Israel has a table in the kitchen; Sachs mentioned their dominating role in the video above.
My addendum regards the power they exercise there, and over whom.
Go back and do some research on Sachs and where he comes from and how long he’s been in govt. He has been around for a long time.
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/12/17/jeffrey-sachs-outlines-current-geopolitical-events-president-trump-is-already-working-on-optimal-solutions/
Sachs has no respect for President Trump. He repeatedly calls President Trump, “Trump”. His explanation for President Trump’s wanting to end the Ukraine war is because he “won’t back a loser”, not any mention of President Trump’s repeated mention of all the young men dying and that those young men dying is unacceptable.
I can see why many will “like” this “short and sweet” video! What could that reason be?
What he says in the linked video seems pretty cogent.
Agreed.
People like Prof Sachs for the very same reason that you don’t like him! He tells us the truth about Ukraine and Gaza.

Anti-U.S. and Soros anti-Jew (really, anti-U.S., anti-power-states) progressive kumbaya fallacy that all cultures are equal and who cares if the U.S. turns into a third-world country. “Palestinians” are cool. Russia is cool. Iran is cool. China is cool. Everyone needs to”co-exist” blah blah blah. Mass migration, open borders, and ending U.S. and European power is cool.
This is delusional progressive crap. Stealth globalism. See my comment below.

We are all individuals – we are born different, live different, have different talents, desires and needs.
I can’t “Imagine” giving up my individuality to be like everyone else.
I will not give up my Freedom to be different. Being different makes me who I am.
If John Lennon was like everyone else, he never would have written “Imagine”.
The Beatles really weren’t that good. I dunno what y’all saw in them, I say this as someone born in the late 70s.
You don’t remember Beatlemania.
Let It Be.
Or lived off the royalties.
You left out the verse about what happens when those who opt not to “join us” ride through raping, pillaging and shoot John Lenon.
“Regime change. That’s what the CIA does for a living. A very strange foreign policy”. From 4:00 minutes.”To be an enemy of the United States is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.”
“China is not an enemy. It is a success story.”
Without going into a long post about all of China’s actions over the last 40 years, I will just say this.
Babe the Blue Ox could not lay down a larger pile than that.
Why don’t you tell us the countries that China has invaded in the past 40 years?
You think China is not an enemy unless they bomb and invade someone or exactly what is your definition of “invade”?
They have had military conflicts of some form or another with India, South Korea, Japan, Philippines and others depending on how you want to define it. They have had proxy conflicts with a number of countries including the US.
They have invaded the US by sending Chinese women here to have babies who can vote in our elections in the future. They have sent money to NGOs to help undermine our elections.
They have sent people here to study in our universities and work in our industries to steal our technology and other secrets they are too stupid to develop on their own. Now we are seeing they are sending fighting age men across our border.
The Chinese have invaded countries all over the world by bribing their crooked governments and by subterfuge.
So, back to where we began, what is your definition of enemy and invasion?
Since I was kept up way past my bedtime, I thought I’d post a couple of things so I wouldn’t be thinking about them when I’m trying to get to sleep.
I have seen some negative remarks about Jeffrey Sachs online, but they weren’t detailed and I didn’t pay much attention, but now I’ve come across some serious stuff:
REPORT: Jeffery Sachs was the mastermind behind the invasion of the Southern Border, crafted the idea of using Catholic Charities to support migrants.
In his book “Ethics in Action,” which includes a foreword by Pope Francis,
Sachs lays out a plan to use Catholic Charities and taxpayer funds to fuel the crisis.
Borders crumble while Sachs smirks behind UN goals. The border crisis was Sachs’ brainchild—Catholic Charities serve as his pawns, taxpayer dollars as his fuel, and the Pope’s nod as his shield.
It’s not aid; it’s war by migration.
Jeffery Sachs should never be trusted or his ideas given any weight, as he is the cause of many of the problems in the country today.
Actually, it was Ronald Reagan who introduced the major religious charities to work for/with the federal government helping to combat poverty, illiteracy and crime.
I remember that. I was excited. I was still in school. Then Bush did the same, but it was empty when I looked at it. I now recognize it as fluff.
And in 1954, Lynden Johnson gave us the 501c-3 non-profit organization, via the Johnson Amendment, enticing most churches to become a 501c-3 over the years so they can get tax exempt status, which effectively restricted what churches could say with regard to politics… and as we are slowly finding out, other subjects as well. It’s effectively a bribe in return for a restriction in what the church can speak about, or most often, what God commands us to speak against. Hmmm…. I wonder what the Bible has to say about bribes?…
Mark Dice discusses the 501c-3…
The 501c-3 subject is a sensitive, potentially volatile topic for many churches.
Add selective enforcement to the conversation, obviously some Churches are more equal that others.
Hint, there is very real “Religious Left“, but you will never hear the phrase used. You will hear a persistent drum beat and wailing about the so called religious right.
Good observations RJH. It’s quite the web of deception. One has to keep their focus on God and what He says in His Word vs what man says. One good tell to discern truth from error is if what man says is spoken with a prideful spirit.
Would highly recommend people who are interested in this subject take a look at this trailer for a documentary that will be released on Easter. The American Church is SO far from the one described in the book of Acts, as money and power are now the main drivers, IMHO!
Thank you for the trailer VikingMom ~ Looking forward to watching the full movie.
I think many of the pulpits, at least on the mega church level, and are infiltrated by deep state government assets. And many of the smaller churches also are card carrying members.
Shaping public opinion is very important to the deep state so anyone who has a significant following will probably be approached to join at some point. And that is in addition to those specifically trained intel assets sent in for the direct purpose of infiltration of churches, seminaries, and other religious institutions.
In 1996, the C*A gave a report to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence of the United States titled, “C*A’s use of Journalists and Clergy in Intelligence Operations”.
The document can be found online.
I suppose this infiltration of the Christian body of believers has been going on in one form or another since the time of New Testament.
It’s a uncomfortable subject. One has to be attentive to keep their focus on God and service to Him and not man because man will fail us.
Reminds me of the passage I was just reading yesterday in Matthew 13, where Jesus spoke the Parable of the Tares.
I definitely agree with your thoughts on the infiltration and entangling of “church” and state regarding the mainline denominations and the mega churches! I think all of the ngos facilitating the human trafficking epidemic around the world are a perfect example!
In contrast, I think many of the smaller churches, at least those I have been involved with, start off with good intentions, but then get entangled in ego, nepotism, and a realization of how much money can be made by manipulating the congregants into blind obedience to one person! “The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil….”
Generally speaking, there is more of a resistance to any kind of government interference in churches like these, which also, coincidentally, protects the pastor from having to be transparent or accountable with how they are managing the finances! It becomes more of an entertainment/ program driven/ Cult of Personality type of setting and everybody wants to be on The A-Team so they don’t want to ask questions, less they fall out of favor with the “cool kids”!
(Ironically, I think it’s the same thing that happens to a lot of freshman politicians as well- there’s so much power and so much money and everybody wants to be your friend. Somehow along the way, they lose their initial passion to do something good and get caught up in a system that rewards them when they go with the flow!)
This is a long form interview with the two men who are putting together the documentary and they do a far better job explaining the issues in detail than I.
You gave some apt parallels between how some new pastors and new freshmen politicians start out with good intentions and then the system changes them over time.
I’m listening to the long form interview now.
Reagan also recognized the Vatican as a nation state, full diplomatic privileges.
I remember the “with” part, but not the “for” part.
We are talking about mass migration, not literacy, poverty and crime.
I don’t see anything in the link you posted mentioning Prof Jeffrey Sachs at all!
Hmm. I don’t know why that is.
The book you cited by Prof Sachs was only published last year. The invasion has been in progress for the past four years.
Supposedly he’s on the board of a Soros think tank that has been planning this out for years.
If Sachs was hooked-up with Soros he would be pounding the table to kill Russians and not trying to stop the fighting, Clarion.
The invasion has been going on since 1965.
Indeed
Ted always was a goof.
Back in my younger years, Congress passed a budget with a one-time special allotment for a social program of some kind. One of the conservative legislators expressed his reservation about the bill because it was the type of thing that could be met with declarations of horror when the spending automatically termed out.
As that boost in spending was coming to its natural end, Ted Kennedy raced in and pontificated on the hardheartedness of the Republicans who would make such a drastic “cut” in a program that was so necessary to the children.
Yes, that moment along his failure to retire from the Senate after receiving his diagnosis of malignant brain cancer (same as John McCain).
Whoa!
No wonder those bishops are suing. Francis?
There’s this too, about Jeffrey Sachs. I’ve only ever seen his stuff about the situation in Ukraine, and I thought it sounded fairly reasonable.
Insurrection Barbie
@DefiyantlyFree
I did a deep dive into Jeffrey Sachs and although I knew he wrote books promoting mass migration, I had no idea he was literally the brainchild behind the mass migration scheme we have been experiencing in the United States since 2010.
He is on the advisory board of a think tank funded by George Soros which literally came up with the entire academic and tactical blueprint for the NGO mass migration pipeline we see today. He then took that blueprint and implemented it at the UN and at Catholic Charities.
Why is anyone promoting this guy? Was Norm Eisen and George Soros himself not available?

.
He’s consistent. He’s against “western hegemony”, for green new deal, for Soros progressive stuff, for mass migration, and it apparently pisses him off that the U.S. et al. think/thought they were fighting the Ukraine-Russia war on the cheap by proxy.
So he seems to sort of align with those of us against the war, but what’s apparently chapping him the most is “the way” the U.S./U.K./E.U. have been doing it, and fear that Ukraine is going to lose while the western powers benefit.
Not all opinions (or motivations) necessarily are cleanly on one of two sides. Not infrequently there are more than two sides. Ulterior motives and alternate opinions can be in the mix. Something to always be careful of.
.
That makes a lot of sense.
I notice that this stuff about him is getting more attention now that he’s going against the preferred narratives on different sides of the war.
Why? WHY??
Glad to welcome @CondoleezzaRice today to @DHSgov HQ. We had a great discussion on securing the American homeland and returning our federal government to the vision of our founding fathers!

Rice is a Bush appointee. President Trump or anyone in his administration should not trust her.
Homeland Security was a Bush creation. I was hoping we would get rid of it, or at least reform it, but here we go again.

With her Egyptian style mascara, plumped up lips, rouge cheeks, and carefully curled hair, Noem has transformed from country farm girl into temple prostitute by appearance.
She was never in the higher intellect stratum and if you listen carefully to her speak, you’ll notice a certain lack of depth (ie details) in whatever cause she’s speaking of; sounding more like a recital of previously agreed upon talking points than deep seated beliefs coupled with a well thought out, long term plan.
And she shoots dogs at the drop of a hat.
Your “dough” is certainly “sour” today….

Typical..
Clarion: Barf!
Oh no. There is a disturbance in the force. IMO, the Democrats are going to try to set Kash and Elon against each other.
During Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee on 1/30/25, Kash and Cory Booker had this exchange. This from the second session of the hearing starting at 01:59:09. The body language has something to say.
https://www.c-span.org/program/senate-committee/fbi-director-nominee-kash-patel-testifies-at-confirmation-hearing-part-2/655100
Booker: Do you know any of these five individuals — Erica Knight, Tom Ferguson, Greg Mentzer, Steve Reese, or Carlos Fernandez?
Patel: Yes, Senator.
Booker: Who are they?
Patel: People I’ve worked with in the past.
Booker: I’m told those will be additional political appointees to run the FBI, is that correct?
Patel: That’s news to me, Senator.
Booker: Under the history of the Federal Bureau of Investigation since reforms in the early 1970’s, there’s only been one political appointee. I’m told these will be additional political appointees, five extra political appointees. Do you know if Reese or Fernandez are associated with SpaceX or Elon Musk?
Patel: I don’t.
Booker: I am told they are affiliated with SpaceX and Elon Musk. And he has influence as to who will be put around you as political appointees.
******
Now this:
“FBI Director Kash Patel directed bureau staff Saturday to “pause” responding to Elon Musk-backed demands that federal workers justify their jobs or resign – as news broke that Patel would be tapped to be the acting head of a second federal law enforcement agency, sources said.”
“The email to federal workers demanding that they detail what they did in the past week was sent out Saturday from the Office of Personnel Management, shortly after Musk posted on X that such a demand was forthcoming, according to multiple sources, ABC News reported.”
“Patel, who was sworn in to his 10-year term on Friday, responded by instructing his workers they they should not answer the demand letter.”
https://nypost.com/2025/02/22/us-news/new-fbi-leader-kash-patel-tapped-to-run-atf-as-acting-director/
*******
Democrats are stirring the pot. Not good.
Liefare is as inevitable as Lawfare and the Blogfare we see here everyday.
I hope Elon cleared it with Kash before he sent anything to Kash’s bureau.
Certainly doesn’t sound like it.
Why should he Clarion? President Trump appointed Elon to clean out the system. FBI should not be excluded. Patel just took office and should let Musk do his job just like all the other agencies have done.
“…all the other agencies have…” not.
Litigation Tracker: Legal Challenges to Trump Administration Actions
Because it’s Kash’s agency. Before he even gets a chance to do anything, a total outsider is going to be evaluating who should and shouldn’t be working there, who is and isn’t doing their job?
Uh, not without talking to Patel first. Business etiquette 101. Musk may not be used to asking, but he will need to learn. Even if it’s just a formality.
Yep, I’d have done the same as Patel. FBI work for him. If Musk wants anything, he needs to ask Patel first.
Unnamed “multiple sources” reported by the highly truthful and respected “ABC News”.
Bingo. Never believe the main stream media on anything.
The FBI’s lawfare crowd’s good friend and mouthpiece wrote this article about political employees being installed in the director’s office at the FBI. It was published the day before Kash testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Elon Musk affiliate in FBI director’s office sparks fear of partisan interferenceA person who has been affiliated with Elon Musk’s SpaceX and a former aide to a top FBI critic in Congress are now advising the FBI director, current and former officials say.
“Current and former officials say…”
So does that mean Peter Strzok and/or Andy McCabe and/or James Comey? Who has been telling Ken Dilanian what to write?
“Current and former officials” leak it to media…
Media breathlessly reports…
Current politicians are aghast…
🤔
Sounds like the time tested Pelosi “Wrap up Smear”.
Only question… imo…
Where are the Epstein files “Kash said” (repeatedly) he would release on his first day?
Pro tip…
They’re sitting on Pam Bondi’s desk.
“Why would Pam Bondi say, “the Epstein files are on my desk”?…
Because she’s performing?
Yes.
She is generating panic and major news stories. GOOD.
And,
she needs to have a team of lawyers look it over
to be sure it’s accurate.
This is my guess.
Did Kash release the Epstein files? Why?
hmmm…
“You can’t release court files during an investigation. We know that there were several open investigations and court cases. So, either Kash ended all investigations, ’or he’s destroyed and destroys any cases upcoming or otherwise.”
Kash answers to Pam Bondi.

Lee Amendment #922,
https://www.congress.gov/amendment/119th-congress/senate-amendment/922
Purpose:To establish a deficit-neutral reserve fund relating to Congress continuing its work to rein in the administrative state by supporting legislation that prevents Federal agencies from finalizing major rules without congressional approval, strengthens the Article 1 law-making powers of Congress, cuts spending resulting from costly regulations, reduces inflation, and unleashes economic growth.
Amends Bill: S.Con.Res.7 — An original concurrent resolution setting forth the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.
https://www.congress.gov/119/crec/2025/02/20/171/34/CREC-2025-02-20-pt1-PgS1259-5.pdf
“”
The Chairman of the Committee on the Budget of the Senate may
revise the allocations of a committee or ommittees, aggregates, and other appropriate levels in this resolution, and make adjustments to the pay-as-you-go ledger,
for one or more bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between the Houses, motions, or conference reports
relating to reducing burdensome and costly Federal Government regulations
by passing legislation focused on government deregulation that will decrease new spending arising from such regulations and reassert the proper constitutional role of Congress in the law-making process by the amounts provided in such legislation for those purposes,
provided that such legislation would not increase the deficit over either the period of the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2029 or the period of the total of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.

Dedication to the brave souls who got us here, the front lines…Alex Stein is one of them. We need to make fun of these communist freaks, break them. Their credibility is low but not nearly low enough.
Pass a federal law that confiscates the councillor’s 401k’s and gives it to Veterans. I know that can’t happen, but some way to hold these insulated communists accountable for their actions such that they suffer when they impose pain, needs to be found…
Otherwise, commies will do what commies always do, and it will never, ever change. And that applies to local, to state, to federal commies. And when I say commies, I don’t just mean Democrats labelled correctly, I mean Uniparty people.
Hold them accountable. Make THEM suffer consequence. When they do things that make others suffer. And the easiest way to make them suffer, is to degrade their finances and make them understand if they continue their behaviour their future will be bleak. That’s the only way to stop their behaviour. Because they’re fanatics. And therefore, they’re dedicated. And the only way to stop dedicated fanatics, is to make them see the penalty of their thinking, in a real, present, and actual way.
President Trump and Justin Trudeau hold call about Ukraine, border security after weeks of tension
Excerpt:
“Prime Minister Trudeau echoed President Trump’s desire to see an end to the war and acknowledged that President Trump is the only world leader who can push through a just and lasting peace….
…….During the call, Trudeau claimed Canada has achieved a 90% reduction in fentanyl crossing into the U.S. from Canada and said his country’s border czar will be in Washington next week for meetings with U.S. border chief Tom Homan.
https://www.aol.com/president-trump-justin-trudeau-hold-014811646.html
I don’t believe Castreaux. Canada has a large Chinese problem, and is probably producing 90% of their own fentanyl.

“Transitioning” appears to be trendy in recent years. I wonder how many will regret their surgeries later.
If this Pritzker guy hasn’t had surgery, then he’s really just a transvestite and is pretending to be female.
Still, it’s abnormal and deviant behavior.
Even with surgery he’s still pretending to be female.
You cannot change your gender, no matter how much you mutilate your body with surgery.
Make mental health institutions great again.
Eagle is exactly correct. We are putting blatantly defective minds in keys roles
all over this country and asking them to do what is impossible for them to do.
We need leaders without the weight of gender dysphoria in their minds to make our laws and policies.
These folks are strongly biased towards promoting like minded ill people like themselves.
Further they consider anyone outside their group with a different mindset an enemy. Their entire mindset
revolves around their deviant sexual tendencies which taints everything they do.
It is well past time to purge the psychological profession of its polluted members and restore
an institutional care system that actually treats mentally ill people, rather than pushing them
into society with some pills or no support to overcome this deviant behavior.

“Give Us Back Our Fu*#ing Money.” How Washington Stole Everything.
Independent media – you reading this – is now the most powerful force on earth.
elizabeth nickson
Feb 22, 2025
https://elizabethnickson.substack.com/p/give-us-back-our-fuing-money-how
So essentially the entire town of Washington, D.C. has been stealing. The anomalies are those who are not stealing. $4.7 trillion, almost impossible to trace, represents two-thirds of the annual U.S. budget. And if it’s happening in the U.S., it is happening everywhere: France, Canada, the U.K., Germany, where budgetary processes are probably even more opaque than those of the U.S.
How does the Department of Defence have a $35 trillion black hole?
I used to think of people who worked for the government with a kind of veiled contempt or, in a more benign mood, compassion. I thought of them as pity jobs for those without initiative, as jobs paying off lefty campaigners, as a warehouse for the barely competent. In my own dealings with them, I found them punitive and extractive, papering me with demands to spend more and more money to hire more and more of their pet contractors, to get approval. In my working life, looking at the results of their involvement in America’s rural areas, I hated them for the hell they visited on people unable to fight back. They forced bad science on good people, and refused to see reason. They ruined forests, water courses, fisheries, and township after township turned to dustbowl status. The misery in rural sitting rooms in every state in the U.S. was palpable, long lasting; the green Blob ruined families for generations.
But I did not think of them as being embroiled in a theft so large as to be unparalleled in world history.
[snip]

Climate is a black hole of funding/theft. On Thursday, Lee Zeldin at the EPA reported a $2,000,000,000 grant from the EPA to a group associated with Stacey Abrams, a group whose 2023 donations totalled all of $100. What would they do? Stand up climate protestors, paid climate protestors. Go to schools and scare the kids. Rile up neighborhoods, glue themselves to paintings and sidewalks. The number of actual protestors, not counting the weak hysterics, is near zero. Heading every climate related group is a grim psychological operative, using every trick in the book to turn people into slavering maniacs.
These grants are meant to stand up an army, turn out protestors, spur riots, destroy the Trump presidency. Destroy MAGA. Steal.
[snip]
This is my point: the whole culture, the entirety of the psychological space we walk around in, was manufactured and forced upon us using our money. The reason the ‘media’ failed is not because of digital, it’s because everything it produces is untrue garbage. Every time it took a government grant it lost more readership, because it played to the government. And as time went on, its content bore no relation to any lived reality beyond the subsidized. It became fake, falsified, demonic. So when people started to wake up, they stopped buying it, reading it, watching it. MSNBC and CNN’s audience dropped 50% again after November 5th, for the tenth year in a row.
[snip]
What if this theft, the trillions a year flowing out to who the hell knows, was the entire purpose of the National Security State? Yes, these grants, the billions spent by USAID were designed to assemble army of dissidents, across the globe, to protect U.S. interests. ***Thousands of activists paid to agitate against any government [we now know even in the US when Trump is in office – W] going against the aims of the National Security State.*** USAID stood up LBGTQ groups, dancers, rap stars, theatre people, feminists, abortion activists, every conceivable activist group grubbing for pennies. Feminist groups were financially supported in every country in order to fracture the family.
The purpose wasn’t “aid”, it was to make life in every country contentious, angry, divided against itself, and to guarantee that whenever the CIA wanted, tens of thousands would pour onto the streets to protest. It was rent-a-riot money. It was to put CIA/globalist puppets in charge.
The money was also spent to quash any legitimate protest by populists angry about globalist policies of migration, eternal war, censorship, over-regulation and energy draw-down because of “climate”.

Love Stephen Miller.
The thieves should be executed. Period. No prison. No probation. Just execution. ALL of them, male and female; just like we were entering Canaan for the first time and eradicating the heathen.
Do they get a trial first, with legal representation, or are you dispensing with that as well?
Hmmm tempting but no although making omelets require the breaking eggs
“Feminist groups were financially supported in every country in order to fracture the family”
Providing abortion services and contraception In foreign countries had the same affect. May they all rot.
Ultimately its about destroying the family and lowering Western peoples birthrates. The Cultural Marxists at the Frankfurt School were working on allot of this and were forced to flee from the Hitler & National Socialists and were welcomed by Columbia University. So Columbia was the epicenter. Chicago seems to be another center for these deviants/psychopaths.
The feminists eagerly went along with that, especially biden’s administration liberal females. The heat is rising out here in the real world.
Disgusting lot. All of them. Money, greed and power run their lives and they deliver their demands with extreme arrogance towards all whom they designate as ‘the low level providers’ for their greed, power and money.
However, on that list are several people who have family fortunes and spouses who were wealthy long before any office in federal govt. Maybe ill begotten funds from corrupt family businesses, but there is that element of it in some of their overall wealth. It’s the ones who basically had nothing when they hit on their political careers and now are worth millions who show the glaring corruptness of falling into the DC swamp.
Could we ever show a list of those who actually are the non corrupt good guys in our federal govt.? Are there any?

He’s a vile military dictator, but he’s correct, of course.
I read your new Ottoman Empire post from the other day with a high level of interest. If you’ve seen my quotes about Islam from Fabian Society member George Bernard Shaw and look at Muslim invasion immigration policies to the EU, and the wars against those countries that are secular Muslim majority nations like Iraq,Syria,Libya etc (General Clark’s hitlist) a pattern develops.
I think you are onto something. Watch Saudi Arabia & Turkey. They are responsible for ISIS, and SA & Pakistan & the IC’s of US/UK are responsible for the original Al-Qaeda, but with their takeover of secular Syria, Turkey is more than likely involved in that as well now.
Thanks, I have felt for a long while Turkey has gotten a pass.
THE MORNING RANT: Taxpayer-Subsidized “Clean Tech” Ventures in Support of the “EV Transition” Are Starting to Fold—Buck Throckmorton–Ace of Spades HQ:
“…Under the leadership of Governor Brian Kemp (R), Georgia became ground zero for the EV hype. With the enemies of freedom committed to vanquishing gasoline-powered vehicles, Brian Kemp made it clear that no governor was more committed to their agenda than he was.
At the same time, the Biden administration was also steering obscene amounts of money to all the EV-adjacent promoters. To a certain extent, a lot of these companies were not much different from startups seeking investment money from venture capitalists and angel investors. But when government is the angel investor, the process is no longer capitalism, and rather than focusing on revenue as a source of cash, the focus of these enterprises quickly turned to keeping the government grants, incentives, and “loans” flowing in.
But with the EV fad having peaked, and with the election of Donald Trump, the music has just stopped for all the hustlers and their EV-related schemes. The over-hyped and highly subsidized ventures are starting to fail, and unsurprisingly,
Georgia is at the center of the collapse.
Aspen Aerogels
In early 2022, a company named Aspen Aerogels announced plans to build a massive plant near Savannah that was allegedly going to employ 250 people and produce thermal barriers to suppress EV fires. The plant would be financed by taxpayers, of course, but it has just now been cancelled.
Of course, Gov. Kemp and fellow Georgia leaders threw taxpayer dollars at Aspen Aerogels to incentivize it to build the plant for an industry that didn’t actually exist at the time.
Reading the financial statements of these companies entertains me, and a quick glance reveals that over the past four-full years, Aspen Aerogels has never turned a profit, losing a cumulative $187 million. Its stock is down 85% from its peak in 2021. This is the kind of company in which Joe Biden and Brian Kemp like to “invest” taxpayer money.
Freyr Battery
Here’s another…Freyr Battery’s much-hyped, multi-billion dollar plant that was going to employ 700 Georgians has just been scrapped.
Good luck getting “repaid expeditiously.” Freyr Battery has lost $83 million through the first three quarters of its current fiscal year, and it lost a combined $173 million over the previous two full years. Its stock price has collapsed by 85% since its peak in 2022.
Rivian
The granddaddy of all the bad Georgia EV investments, Rivian, is not dead yet, but the Georgia plant that was supposed to be building electric vehicles by 2024 is still just an empty field. …It was another financial bloodbath for Rivian, with a loss of $4.7 billion. This is somehow being reported as good news, because the prior year’s loss was $5.4 billion, but no company can consistently burn that kind of cash and survive long. Even worse, annual sales have plateaued at about 50,000 units, and that was with all the Biden-era tax incentives which are likely going away soon.
Rivian’s existing plant in Normal, IL has a capacity of over 200,000 units per year. With Rivian maxed out at 50,000 sales per year, there is no possibility that the empty field in Georgia will someday have a plant spitting out 400,000 vehicles per year, as promised when Brian Kemp gave Rivian over a billion dollars in incentives back in 2021.
Rivian’s stock is down 92% from its peak, and it remains the highest profile participant in my EV Death Pool.” …….
This was Kowtow Kemp’s payoff from the ChinaBiden-BlackRock Gang for stealing Georgia Elections for Biden, Warnock and others.
Not only did Beijing Brian Kemp loot the US Treasury, he raped and robbed the citizens of Georgia of their voice and their money yet again.
But Justice is Coming.

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the constitution of the United States, and the constitution of the State of New York, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of the office….
For added pressure the NY republicans in the state legislature should introduce articles of impeachment against the two this week, but they won’t. Such is the state of affairs with too many republicans at the state and local level. We have so much work yet to do there.
Trump, Musk are trying to implement zero-based budgeting
February 18, 2025
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2025/02/18/trump-musk-are-trying-to-implement-zero-based-budgeting-1523339/
Historically, when determining how much the federal government is spending annually, a process known as incremental budgeting has been used. This means that the next year’s budget is based on a certain incremental increase above the current year’s budget. This technique is at least partially responsible for the current $36 trillion public debt.
For as long as most of us can remember, Congress proposed an annual spending budget based on an increase from the prior year, often by 3% to 5% or more.
When the public responded negatively to the resulting large spending increase, Congress would simply say they would cut the budget. That meant instead of a 5% increase, Congress would cut the increase to 2%. Then they would claim they cut the budget.
[snip]
The definition of Zero-Based Budgeting is “a method of budgeting in which all expenses must be justified for each new period. The process begins from a “zero-base” and every function within an organization is analyzed for its needs and costs. The budgets are then built around what’s needed for the upcoming period.”
Since Musk leads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), he has examined the budgets of many government agencies. When he starts at a base of zero, he often concludes that nearly all the spending is simply not needed. In fact, he has argued that some whole departments in the government are not needed at all.
The government hasn’t had a “budget” in decades. It passed “continuing resolutions” – emphasis: “continuing.” So, if pork was authorized twenty years ago, it’s still there.
This was great to pay for “the lifestyle to which you very quickly became accustomed,” without requiring you to actually do anything. 🤡
2008 was the last budget.
They haven’t said it yet, but I’m wondering if a real budget will actually be passed either this year or perhaps more likely next year when they have a good handle on all this drastic action taking place at once. Might take a bit of time to unwind it all and create that actual budget we haven’t had for 18 years.
If an agency only makes the issue they were created to fix worse in order to receive a larger budget to deal with an intentionally sabotaged reality, deleting the agency doesn’t delete the problem..
Understanding THIS (in addition to the recent history of NO BUDGE) is basic:
Historically, when determining how much the federal government is spending annually, a process known as incremental budgeting has been used. This means that the next year’s budget is based on a certain (AUTOMATIC) incremental increase above the current year’s budget. This technique is at least partially responsible for the current $36 trillion public debt.
For as long as most of us can remember, Congress proposed an annual spending budget based on (NOT LAST YEAR’S BUDGET, BUT) an increase from the prior year, often by 3% to 5% or more.
To anyone cheering this on: if you’re presently employed, sit down and try to respond as if you had received this email. But respond without alluding to specific files, cases, or individuals. And remember that someone who knows nothing about your profession will be analyzing your response. One person, half your age, may decide whether you continue to work, or not.
This very thing had to be done weekly in a company my spouse worked at and this was quite awhile ago. SOP. What is the big deal? You either can document your time spent or you can’t. No classified links are to be sent as you would expect since everyone knows better and Elon would be hung out to dry by the screaming meemies if he allowed that. Surely there are many other pieces of information that can be given to document work like progress on projects and names of accounts being worked on, teams being worked with etc. if you have a job and are working everyday there should be plenty of evidence of it on computers, phones, tablets in this day and age.
Business Efficiency Experts do this for private companies. Sometimes these experts are half any given employee’s age, and they surely are not an expert with regards to every profession at said company. Happens all the time. Including companies I have worked for. It often includes employee interviews as well. People get fired and moved around. Lots of changes always follow, and the entrenched are usually unhappy with those changes. In the 90’s, there was an episode of the comedy News Radio involving a young, attractive Efficiency Expert. Been around for a long time! I don’t understand the big deal. What a bunch of entitled babies clearly afraid because they’ve had no oversight and now they’re going to be caught having not done their jobs, which they were paid to do by the US taxpayer.
Unconstitutional Affirmative Action, Orwellian Diversity laws, and Gender warfare had been part of Federal/State/Local hiring since at least the 90’s when it was used against myself. They were less qualified and were made “minorities” by having female anatomy. Obviously inferior candidates based on equipment used for Wildlife management being physically demanding.
Former Democrat Senator from Virginia Jim Webb exposed how Affirmative Action was twisted from its original intent and used to promote immigrants, gender & liberal ideologues over native born White & Black men.

Oh you mean like HR
People working on legal or investigative matters better be careful answering that e-mail.
Investigator: I have been on these three cases for three months and I did not accomplish anything last week.
Notice the wording “what you accomplished“.
What you “did” is very different from accomplished. Going to meetings about meetings is doing. Forwarding emails is doing, not accomplishing.
In Gov, even at the highest levels organizations are not structured to accomplish, completing an assigned task is sufficient to be declared successful.
Closing the Border is an accomplishment. Transferring funds to an NGO is a task completed. 99.9 percent of gov employees have no budget they control or decision making authority. Job Corps for the slightly motivated.
Question. If Elon can make this demand of all federal employees does this not put him above the cabinet and appointed heads of departments? For example, do employees of HHS report to the HHS Secretary or to Elon Musk?
Elon Musk is appointed to lead a department created by none other than the President of the United States (!) His task in the Department of Government Efficiency is to streamline bureaucracies and to trim all wasteful spending.
I don’t know what is so hard to understand about that.
Many probably don’t even bother to read their government job emails anymore.

How would any outside “understand” what a person at a particular agency “got done” in five bullet points, and who was going to review thousands upon thousands of such replies?
Sheesh.
this is a common refrain in my line of business. that its so “complicated” or specialized that others cannot possibly get it.
this is something Elon has chased for many years – that assertion is FALSE. if you cannot describe how you add value to the layman, then you may not actually know what you are doing at that agency/firm/job. you’re conducting a task without understanding its true purpose. and frequently, that task exists because of mass scope or mission creep.
i, for one, welcome such scrutiny. if your agencies mission is to send checks to old people, and you cannot connect what you are doing to that mission, the people have every right to ask WTF you are doing there.
That’s true, but I’ve had jobs where I could give you five bullet points of what I did, and you would not know if it added value or not.
Elon is asking for what they did.
He asked for what they “accomplished”. Its a red pill.
So if I’m understanding correctly, what is known is that people went to the island, and where they traveled from, but we don’t know the purpose of their trips, but some of them could have worked there, but we don’t know doing what.
That doesn’t sound like a “client list” to me.
Perhaps only “clients” were tracked. Surely Epstein had a separate list of clients’ numbers vs. employees, etc.
I recall reading about that cell phone tracking done by Wired on Wired’s online web page a LONG time ago and it didn’t noticeably make the news for obvious reasons. So, how this is suddenly “news” I don’t know, but since most people probably don’t know about it, I posted the tweet..

“Our differences in the cold war were with the Soviet Communist regime. And now we are turning our backs on the very people who mounted the greatest bloodless revolution in history to remove that Soviet regime.” George Kennan
George Kennan, 1998 interview on NATO expansion
https://eldyrin.livejournal.com/23389.html?
”I think it is the beginning of a new cold war,” said Mr. Kennan from his Princeton home. ”I think the Russians will gradually react quite adversely and it will affect their policies. I think it is a tragic mistake. There was no reason for this whatsoever. No one was threatening anybody else. This expansion would make the Founding Fathers of this country turn over in their graves. We have signed up to protect a whole series of countries, even though we have neither the resources nor the intention to do so in any serious way. [NATO expansion] was simply a light-hearted action by a Senate that has no real interest in foreign affairs.”
”What bothers me is how superficial and ill informed the whole Senate debate was,” added Mr. Kennan, who was present at the creation of NATO and whose anonymous 1947 article in the journal Foreign Affairs, signed ”X,” defined America’s cold-war containment policy for 40 years. ”I was particularly bothered by the references to Russia as a country dying to attack Western Europe. Don’t people understand? Our differences in the cold war were with the Soviet Communist regime. And now we are turning our backs on the very people who mounted the greatest bloodless revolution in history to remove that Soviet regime.
”And Russia’s democracy is as far advanced, if not farther, as any of these countries we’ve just signed up to defend from Russia,” said Mr. Kennan, who joined the State Department in 1926 and was U.S. Ambassador to Moscow in 1952. ”It shows so little understanding of Russian history and Soviet history. Of course there is going to be a bad reaction from Russia, and then [the NATO expanders] will say that we always told you that is how the Russians are — but this is just wrong.”
That line goes straight through the 2020 #FakeElection Overthrow of the People and their duly-elected President.
Marc Andreessen Describes “Alarming” Meeting With Biden Admin That Prompted His Trump Endorsement
https://www.gulf-insider.com/marc-andreessens-alarming-meeting-with-biden/
“For decades, Andreessen has supported Democrats, including Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton. However, a troubling spring meeting with Biden administration officials caused major concerns. During the meeting, officials explained their plan to control AI through government regulatory capture—a strategy reminiscent of Communist policies in China. ”
it would be more funny if it wasn’t so true….
Still waiting for the Epstein list as boldly promised by Kash Patel “on Day One.” Remember that?
The swamp protects their own.
We already had the lists. Bill Clinton was there 26 times. Now we need the indictments.
You can’t indict someone for going somewhere.
is day..3 already…..
And we’re still waiting…
The Worst Atrocity in the History of the World has been Confirmed
with no accountability or justice forthcoming

The World Health Organization estimates that (worldwide) there have been 763,740,140 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 6,908,554 deaths as of April 19, 2023. This does not include additional components of the excess mortality during the COVIDcrisis being documented by many in western nations, for which scientists and the various governments seems to not know what the causative agent is and no government seems to want to investigate… Although most will agree privately that these deaths are also related to COVID-19 “public health” policies in some way or another. These include deaths from lockdowns (famine, suicide, violence, alcohol and drug abuse), long COVID, vaccine deaths, lack of medical care for cancer and other diseases, etc. All told, the estimate for total deaths from the COVIDcrisis is probably around ten million people or more. Ten million people is a very big number. It is hard to even fathom.
For comparison, the largest natural disaster (excluding famine) of the 20th century was the Chinese Yangtze River Floods in 1931, which killed 3.7 million people both directly and indirectly, with many people dying from poor sanitation and diseases. In 1958, the Chinese Yellow River Flood killed around a million people, although estimates widely vary. Other floods, cyclones, earthquakes all killed countless people. But none did so with as much devastation to human life as was done by the SARS-CoV-2-WIV virus.
But we also know this was not a natural disaster, this disaster was man made.
A list of genocides on Wikipedia shows that there have been no single human atrocities in the history of mankind that have come close to the deaths caused from the COVIDcrisis.
How do we “know this”? Because we have the receipts thanks to Judicial Watch, as well as the Congressional investigations – still ongoing.
This week, Judicial Watch received 552 pages from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). These documents include the initial grant application, biosketches, budgets and annual reports to the NIH from EcoHealth Alliance. They describe the specific aims of the project, which include creating mutant viruses SARS (and MERS viruses) “to better predict the capacity of our CoVs [coronaviruses] to infect people.”
I spent the afternoon reading these documents and the 552 pages are a gold mine of information. But the specific aim 3 of the contract is particularly important. It reads in full:

Remember AOC’s Trump Accountability project?
“At the behest of ‘squad’ member and New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a blacklist of “Trump sycophants”—entitled “The Trump Accountability Project”—is archiving the names of individuals who “elected, served, funded, supported, and represented” President Donald Trump.”

Hypocrisy is ugly, and payback’s a bitch.
The original domain name is now slots/jackpot site. “https://www.trumpaccountability.net/”
Sounds somewhat seditious.
Because to Democrats it was never about ideals or principles and always was about money and power. They don’t even attempt to defend their actions as not corrupt.
