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.
The purpose and goals of President Trump are plainly visible by his actions and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He is making massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in our country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This term, he is weeding them out faster. No U.S. president has ever faced so much organized resistance and treason than President Trump
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the healthy distrust of government and men with too much power held by our founders. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum on day 283 of the 2nd term of this very stable genius in the history of the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2025.
Amen!
Amen
Amen!

When you look at it that way, it looks really easy to fix.
When you compare that to funding the border wall 8 years ago, 😡
Justscott, agreed.
In 2017, PDJT requested $18 billion for the border wall and Paul Ryan ‘just couldn’t get there’ but promised to make money available ‘next time’.
Ryan then led a mass exodus of Rs from the house in 2018, CA used ballot harvesting to flip 7 additional House seats and, voila, Pelosi and the swamp was in charge for the final 2 years of term 1.
Never forget and I hope PDJT continues turning the screws into the swamp.
Divin-Paul Ryan 2018 dive was a big part of the uniparty plan to rid the swamp of MAGA!.
He was rewarded with caviar & champagne, the board at Faux News.
JUSTICE! NOW!
Every time I see a clip with Gowdy or Chaifitz I feel sick.
Graph shows that Snap has approximately doubled since 2019.
Don’t forget upon arrival to his installation, the potted plant gave SNAP a 25% increase likely knowing his minions were going to send inflation through the roof.
knowing his minions were going to flood the country with illegals.
Big part of the Wuhan Con, get more people dependent on government, including our replacement population with the 3rd World invasion.
Foreign Aid.
Golly Gee, what happened in 2020 that could have caused such an exponential growth in the need for people to rely on SNAP benefit. What could have possibly happened.
Joking aside, curious to see the chart of how many small businesses were forced to shut down during the covid years, putting not only the employees of those businesses, but the owners too in a situation with no income. Perhaps a column in such a comparison of those who had to rely on the SNAP who also refused to take the mystery injections so became unhireable.
A comparable of those numbers with the reliance on SNAP benefits would be something worth seeing.
39% of ?
52% of ?
59% of ?
Reporting on percentages is very misleading.
Here’s the context.
https://cis.org/Report/Welfare-Use-Immigrants-and-USBorn
In this case it is in fact NOT misleading and actually tells one of the stories…people that are not heritage Americans suck taxpayer dollars at a MUCH higher rate than people that are.
Forget about absolute (total) dollars for a moment – for starters illegals should NOT be getting a damn penny of taxpayer dollars.
As was pointed out the other day by someone, they also tend to have larger families – and thus get more dollars per family. The same is true for “legal immigrants” like the ton of Haitians and Somalians, etc. that the AutoPen flooded our nation with.
Legal immigrants should not be relying on taxpayers either! The crucial role of sponsors as their financial backers, if they can’t make it on their own, has been abandoned for probably decades.
I get that. They’re here & we cannot change that no matter how indignant we are about it. Sending them back or changing immigration law doesn’t generate a refund of the 💰 that was already spent.
I’ll repeat myself. Percentages are very misleading. Would you prefer to know how much we spent & where it went? I would.
52% & 59% of 1k is a vastly smaller amount of wasted 💰than 39% of 100K.
They are individual stats for each category. Not meant to add together.
59% out of 100% of non citizens
Who added them together?
I’m asking what is the numeric value of 100%?
We’re fuct if something doesn’t change drastically…SOON..
It is changing. Over 2 million no longer in the nation and tge rate is accelerating
Don’t be so quick to pass that number on.
We have no way of knowing if that’s true. It makes those of us that want all the illegals gone feel a little better but as of today we only have proof 500k illegals have actually been removed.
Reporting that people have self deported with no proof is a perfect way to inflate numbers that aren’t there.
While immigrants get all of the headlines here, the disturbing part to me is that nearly 40% of Americans are not making a wage that provides them a living without public assistance.
Some military personnel qualify for assistance.
I have to remark, 59 and 52 and 39 don’t add up to 100. 59 and 39 do add up to 98.
This isn’t a good way to prove the valid point of abuse of the taxpayers. Maybe someone like Ed Dowd or Data republican could do a better analysis.
The free food to non-citizens is probably legit to genuine asylum seekers, and that should be broken out, if that is even possible.
you don’t understand what you’re reading. 39% of native born are on SNAP. 59% of non-citizens are on SNAP
Reading??? What’s that?
I was taught not to feed wild animals growing up.
Pops said it would make them forget how to hunt. He also said “when you stop feedin’ ‘em, they’re liable to turn on you, Son”..
48 hrs until Assistance-geddon..

Did you catch the other ZeroHedge article that read “Florida has 238,000 Illegals receiving SNAP Benefits, second only to California with some 274,000 recipients”.. 7 States take the bulk of benefits.. Florida is No. 2 on The List..
I don’t know about Florida, but California is a huge state
and 274,000 recipients is a lot, but also seems like “chump change”
when considering the population and size of state.
Others must be on another tax payer give a way program
because I believe the number of grifters is much higher
Not when the now Protected Illegals in the Construction, Hospitality, and Agriculture Rackets in this State such as the able bodied Military Age males covered with yesterdays concrete or drywall dust that I just saw at the Corner Store buying salty/sugary snacks with nothing but a flash of their smartphone imbedded therein a digital EBT account in the $11,000 range.
I have a knack for making instant friends and gleaning information, especially from workers who interact with the public all day, like gas station attendants, for instance..
My question remains, where are the rednecks and black guys in work trucks? Central Florida used to be full of ‘em!
Govt dole was too tempting.
Most are dead from over doing it with or in prison from selling hard dope, vol.

We are down in Palm Springs for the week, inexpensive flights out of Bellingham Washington State make it ever so enticing.
We walked from the airport to the D.T. and our hotel as we enjoy strolling and getting “ a feel for the place”
Commercial space for lease was prevalent, until we approached the downtown core.
One particular restaurant was packed at 11 AM or so, after checking in to our abode we returned to the restaurant to eat.
The staff were awesome, hard working attentive Hispanics and older whites females.
The food was terrific, pricey but was excellent all things considered.
The hundred or so customers would have been 95% affluent looking whites.
A few hours later, and just a ten walk away we located a grocery store called of all things “ Discount Groceries “ the change was dramatic.
The demographic was totally opposite. We were thrilled and loaded up with inexpensive and terrific stuff for our hotel room.
We watched both busy checkouts as we waited to pay, we were the only folks that paid with cash. ( the exact amount down to the cent) and it confused the checkout lady.
If those electronic payment apps are altered either legally or otherwise, the proverbial 💩 will hit the fan.
Cheers!
I live in Bellingham. How do you figure the flights are inexpensive? They are always higher than a flight from Seattle. It’s more of a luxury to fly out of Bellingham to save the chaos of the Sea Tac Zoo and the horrendous traffic coming back home after a trip.
And we’ll worth it !
$49 U.S each way Bellingham to Palm Springs x two. With Allegiant Air.
Return trip for the two of us..
We are retired and only fly on dates when deeply discounted.
Cheers!
You can’t beat that with a cricket bat, Deke..
Yep, Scots born and remember we invented copper wire fighting over a copper penny 😉
And if we’re paying them around the rules, they’re voting too.
The states with the largest populations…
The democrats want all the illegals in the swing states. You know why.
So West Virginia gets almost no assistance ? how can that be
There ain’t as may hands out there since the Oxycodone Tsunami of 1998-2011.. and there’s maybe a couple million total in the whole State..
What you are seeing is basically a population map. Unsurprisingly, the states with high populations have the most people on assistance (by raw numbers). If the map were per capita it would be more useful
What an idiot. What a way to ruin a day – if not a life. Honking is really going to make a difference?

And a mouth full of gold, lmao. These people. Tattoos all over them, multiple body piercings, fancy nail jobs and hair dos, nice clothes, newer car on and on.
Even when I was broke and jobless, I did the unemployment line, but never took one dollar from SNAP or welfare.
Not one red cent.
I made do, ate less and found another job.
Don’t forget the thousand dollar “smartphone” and the Unlimited Data Plan..
I thought snap stop on Nov. 1st?
Shhhhh, she didn’t get the memo.
She’s getting ready for it to happen by having a pre-not-having-snap party.

This is what the Democrats want from the shutdown! They want chaos, disorder leading to violence! Blaming it all on President Trump and the Republicans! It’s all just part of the Cloward-Piven strategy! JMO

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15237185/donald-trump-golden-crown-south-korea.html
Saw that gifting on this morning’s news and had to laugh when seeing the Crown!
These beautiful honors are going to give the meme-makers so much fuel for entertaining the No Kings crowd!
No Kings.
Have a crown.
My belly laughth much already, 47 will come home and tell the lefties ,” I must be a King , see I have a real crown and insignia to prove it.” Their insanity is so deep ,they can’t even tell when he has his way with them.we are way past popcorn , we are rolling in the floor.
’m so tired of hearing “Our grandparents could buy a house on one salary, but now we can’t even afford rent on two!”
Yeah, because Grandma wasn’t blowin’ half her paycheck on $12 iced coffee and avocado toast, that’s why!
Back then, if they wanted coffee, they made it at home.
With grounds so strong it could remove rust. You didn’t drink it… you survived it.
And Grandma wasn’t out there “brunchin’.”
You think she had time for brunch? No!
She was at home, cooking something called whatever’s left in the house.
And don’t even bring up Uber Eats.
These people today are crying about money while living in a 4-bedroom house with two SUVs, six streaming services, and matching sleeve tattoos.
You think Grandpa had a tattoo?
Yeah it said “Korea, 1951.” And it came with nightmares, not realitic shading.
Oh, don’t even get me started on the kids.
“We can’t make ends meet, but Brayden needs the new iPhone!”
No, he doesn’t! You’re giving an $1100 phone to a kid who still eats glue and boogers.
When we were kids, the family phone hung on the wall.
It had a cord long enough to jump rope with, and if you wanted privacy, you had to go stand in the pantry.
And somehow, we survived.
And the TV? There was one. One. It was in the living room, and Dad controlled it.
If he wanted to watch bowling, guess what?
You liked bowling.
Now every room’s got a 65-inch screen, the baby’s got an iPad, and you’re sitting there wondering why you can’t afford rent.
Because you’re living like rappers, that’s why!
Grandpa wasn’t out here leasing Teslas and buying $12 smoothies called “Detox Sunrise.”
He was driving a truck that sounded like thunder and smelled like oil and cigarettes.
They lived within their means.
Whatever Grandpa’s paycheck bought, that’s what they had.
They didn’t try to keep up with the Joneses.
They were just trying to keep the fed and a roof over their heads.
So yeah, Grandpa could buy a house on one salary.
But he also didn’t have 47 subscriptions and emotional-support crystals.
He had one support system, Grandma, who told him to suck it up and mow the yard.
Now folks are broke, tired, and stressed… and it’s not because of inflation… it’s because y’all keep ordering tacos from DoorDash like you’re royalty.
Wake up and smell the truth!
https://nitter.poast.org/REMASCULATE/status/1982577768375128516#m
Yup
That’s not true, the cost of hosing has over tripled in the last 5 decades. The cost of insurance has over doubled. The cost food has over tripled. Property taxes have over doubled.
One person working earning median salary today and being conservative with spending could not afford the payments on the very same home that grandma lived in and that one person working alone paid off 25 years.
It takes two people working full time today to afford what one person alone working back then could afford as far housing. That is a fact.
It’s because of the housing bubble, that didn’t exist 5 decades ago. It’s not a good time to buy a home unless you want to lose money.
That post is a train wreck of juxtaposing unsubstantiated non facts. I’ve owned several homes in my day and own my home. I know better than most what the cost of housing was 5 decades ago compared what is to today. IMLAO
My Grandpa had a concrete basement poured on his acre, added a floor, and they lived in it for a few year while he built the initial house on it. The “furnace” was a poured pit with a wick that he dumped oil in. It had a metal exhaust hood and an air intake.
I learned carpentry, masonry, plumbing and electrical as a kid, helping my father build his last house in the 70s.
Times and expectation have changed.
I helped my father build two homes, one in Florida and one in Michigan. We did everything ourselves from A to Z. I have all the same experience as you have in construction, carpentry, masonry, plumbing, electrical, drywall.
I used to buy homes fix them up and flip em, until the housing bubble made doing it impractical. And I got tired of moving and moving out. Moved a couple more times after that. And will move again at least one more time someday.
It costs way more for permits now then that entire home cost.
It is the easy credit that caused this. There was a time that very few people had credit cards. If a average person did have a credit card it was for emergencies only. Things were done in cash. No impulse buying. Christmas was done on layaway. Only debt was a mortgage. People understood the value of a dollar. 🤔
“Christmas was done on layaway.” triggered a memory from years ago.
I was in a department store. A woman had tears streaming down her face. I asked her what was wrong.
It took several minutes for her to compose herself so that she could respond.
Apparently she attempted to make a payment on the items she had on Christmas layaway for her children.
“They wouldn’t take my payment. Someone came in this morning and paid off my layaway balance. They also paid the remaining balance on all the layaways.”💕
That is the America I lived in until the last few decades. I want my America back. I think we can do this
I pray–every day! 🙏
Nobody noticed that the same guy who couldn’t qualify for a 125k mortgage suddenly under Obama qualifies for a 275k mortgage he could never afford in the first place.
Yep. And the exact same house that he could not get at 125k he can get at 275k. 😉
My late husband was a banker when credit cards reared their ugly heads. He didn’t approve of the idea of credit cards. Said a very big mistake was being made. Consequently we never took advantage of them. And we were better off for it.
I can’t imagine what he would say about this world today. He was a smart man who taught me a lot because he was 16 years older than me. I miss him because he would know what to do today. I trusted him with my life.
I will look forward to joining him soon I hope so the days of struggle without him will be over forever.
I’ve paid cash for 3 houses on a Diesel mechanic and now truck driver wages. Did they need work? Yes. Were they a good investment? Yes. Last one was bought 9 years ago. There’s plenty of truth to Charlotte’s post.
Homeopathy is correct. Wages have not kept pace with housing costs.
While it is true that many young people have realistic expectations, the math is what it is.
Part of this is because the economy back in the day was based on one breadwinner. Now it is based on two.
Also, there are fewer and fewer truly entry level houses being built anymore. No one is building the less than 1200 square foot houses we grew up in.
The Fed is quashing housing to block family formation and middle class success, because the Middle Class is a bulwark against their extremism, and families make babies and they hate Life.
But our God has wonderful plans for us!
Joel 2
24 The threshing floors are full of grain;
the vats overflow with fresh wine and olive oil.
25 I will make up for the years
that the ‘arbeh-locust consumed your crops—
the yeleq-locust, the hasil-locust, and the gazam-locust—
my great army that I sent against you.
26 You will have plenty to eat,
and your hunger will be fully satisfied;
you will praise the name of the Lord your God,
who has acted wondrously in your behalf.
My people will never again be put to shame.
We win!
BRAVO!!!!!
Spot on! I’ve been intending to post on the intentional destruction of the middle class.
One of the reasons why wages have not kept pace with housing costs and cost of living in general is that we almost doubled the supply of labor coming out of the feminism of the 70s, but we didn’t double the demand for labor.
Also decades of mass legal immigration, and illegal, meant to drive down wages and create a one party govt.
Two important factors entered in during the 70s and 80s. One, going off the gold standard in ‘72, two, the rise of feminism and the devaluing of the stay-at-home mom’s work.
These factors helped make the need for two breadwinners a sad reality.
I’d say the plandemic was another great depression in disguise.
It was used to create an excuse which included fake shortages and
strike fear in a population so distracted and germaphobic it would do
whatever was commanded.
Now we have a ruling class that knows all is possible under color of law.
And the business class that has concluded that to go along is to get along.
When all the grandpa’s decided their IRA’s were only money and went out
to buy their new GMC pick ups at $100K plus it sent a signal to everyone
higher prices are not a problem.
The trickle down class just muddles along with no one willing to tell the truth.
They are just a herd to be managed. From birth to death, we are a revenue source.
Nothing more.
Without our LORD, this is a desperate life indeed.
“…distracted and germophobic…”. If that isn’t the truth…
put the blame where it belongs
on the greedy politicians
and Blackrock, vanguard, etc…..
Main culprits besides politicians. . .
You are both right. The reason it now takes two people to own a home is because the culture has changed and now most women go to work. Therefore most families have two incomes and can afford to pay more for a house.
It’s all supply and demand. a concept unknown to many today. They think the government can make things equitable, but all the government does is promise to solve the problem by taking more tax dollars and distributing it mostly to their patrons.
Then the government, in the name of fairness, writes legislation that assures everyone gets a mortgage which assures a housing bubble that will pop because they made loans that had no chance of success.
Plus, in the name of “fairness” they import impoverished people, in numbers larger than the population of many states and all those people want a place to live. That REALLY drives the rent up, which drives up the price of houses.
Then to “help”, the government gives section 8, SNAP, healthcare, etc to 42 million. That raises property taxes and further increases the cost of rent which increases the cost of homes.
I could go on, about all the things like climate change and zoning.
But in the end, the media will tell the youngsters it’s the Boomers fault or Trumps fault and raise taxes to achieve equity.
It is absolutely true due to the Fed devaluating our money and overspending by the federal government.
Now we’re getting somewhere.
The cost of housing isn’t the only thing that’s tripled. You don’t really think that Grandpa made $100K/year back then do you?
1. In 1961, an art designer made between $9,000–$13,000. That would be $94,906.66–$137,087.39 today.
2. In 1967, a waiter/bartender made an average of $1.37 an hour. That would be $12.93 today.
3. In 1966, an airline pilot made about $6,000 a year. That would be $58,389.07 today.
4. In 1961, a dentist made $16,000 a year on average. That would be $168,722.94 today.
5. In 1966, the average annual salary for a teacher was $6,935. That would be $67,488.
6. In 1962, the average wage of a grocery store worker was $1.73 an hour. That would be $18.06 today.
7. In 1967, the average annual salary for a police patrolman was $5,300. That would be $50,032.79 today.
8. In 1966, the average hourly salary for a zookeeper was between $2.40 and $3.15. In today’s money, that’s $23.36 to $30.65.
9. The median annual income for a physician in 1965 was $28,960. That’s $289,876.73 in today’s money.
10. The average salary of a librarian was $7,185 in 1961, which is $75,767.15 today.

Lighten up, Francis.
? Throughout history the truth never has been very well recieved.
Shoot the messenger?
Both are partially true. The cost of living has certainly exponentially increased making it hard for many lower and working clas families to survive.
It is also true we live in an instant gratification society. If I want it I must have it. Homes have also increased in size. Many of us of a more advanced age and our parents bought older small homes, improved them, then sold them to afford that luxurious new 1400 sq foot 3 bedroom ranch home with an attached garage.
Today people think their first home should be a 2500 sq foot Mc Mansion with a three or four car garage. We just end up trying to compare apples to oranges.
Grandma taught me to harvest her garden, can the veggies, make jams and peanut butter.
My parents skipped all that, but I continue her traditions, and added chickens and a small orchard.
Ive exposed all my children to the basics of survival. Huntin, fishing, gathering, gardens, canning, food preservation with salt curing, smoking, cellar storage, how to heat the house safely with wood, hot water from wood. Ive been a prepper before it was cool and did it all because I can and wanted to.
A+ A+ A+
When I was a kid I walked to school, uphill, both ways through the snow, barefooted.
We ate dirt ……. and liked it.
Just saying lol. Some people were silly in grandpa’s day also and some were parasites and some were deeply in debt and others weren’t.
Cinnamon-flavored dirt or savory mushroom?
Instant dirt.
They couldn’t afford real dirt back then.
🤣🤣🤣
We lived in a carboard box in the middle of the road and ate dry poison for dinner. Loved that British humor!.
Eh! Looxury!
You ‘ere looky to have dirt ye knew’
I don;t get the whole Doordash Instacart or Ubereats thing. It is fine for people who
don;t drive, or if you are disabled or ill but why would able bodied people use it
it winds up costing you more money than if you just went yourself.
MmmmMmm…. Overpriced foodlike substances soaked in microplastics!
Hope everybody clicked on that graphine oxide information.
It’s a mind bender..
Some city people don’t know how to cook.
Or are too lazy to learn how. I watched my Grandmom and mom cook so I could learn how. I much prefer home cooked to any other. Healthier and in the long run, less expensive. I also know what is in the food, no “mystery” stuff in it, such as the gmo garbage or what they call bio-engineered ingredients.
lets not go back to the days where mom wore heels and a dress to iron
and didn’t drive since there was only one car
and the man needed the car to drive to work
with Monday being “wash” day
cooking, cleaning, laundry 24/7
LOL!
Maybe. But there was a good bit to recommend then, too.
This was the world I was told of, and knew somewhat of, back in the day …
Every generation thinks those that follow were a little softer than they, and their parents, were.
Houses with electricity? It was once a big deal, little more than a century ago, if you even had access to a party line.
lets not go back to the bad old “days where mom wore heels and a dress and worked at home”
To the good days where mom is on socials, Dad wears heels and a dress and the kids are with the cool teacher, who is spending time listening to them talk about how they feel so anxious and depressed … so she/he encourages them to transition to feel whole
Oh …and no cars (climate change) and can’t afford a home.
In 1951 my father, bringing home 89 dollars a week didn’t just purchase a house, he had one built. Go ahead and adjust for inflation and see if it could be done today. My parents were the last generation to live ” The American Dream”.
Tis reminds me of my father, a man who could build or make anything with his hands. He and my mother did buy a small house after they married but it was soon too small for their growing family. I don’t have super clear memories because of my young age in the early 50’s but I do remember he built an addition to the house by himself. Yes, he may have had some friends help out with some of the work, but basically he did it all. I have no clue as to how much he made back then, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was around the amount your father brought in.
A simpler time.
You never ever said “I’m bored.” Next thing you know you were painting the front porch with enamel (oil Based) paint and if you complained you were picking a switch and you heard; “this is going to hurt me worse than it will hurt you” as you got your calf stripped.
“Well dad I’m fifteen, in a year I’ll be sixteen and will need a car.” Dad without looking up from his paper; “Get a job.” and I did.
“dad I need $10.00?” Dad again; “Well I need the gutters cleaned” …as mowing the grass, raking the yard, etc, were already factored in with my living there.
You tell that to a kid today, and they’ll call child services or their lawyer.
My parents were tough and I miss them everyday.
And many of us were not allowed to watch much TV; instead, we had to read books!
awesome sauce! or cool beans! I remember all that stuff and I want those days back!
Your comment reads like a page in my family’s book, the pictures of ” white privilege ” would a deam you a lunatic.
And they weren’t paying food and rent and phones for a miliion illegals either. Or Asyless fron Afghanistan.
Thanks for reminding me what a great childhood I had. I know everyone doesn’t but a heck of a lot more of us did back then.
Great rant!! Thank you.
Oh this whole comment is so true. My family survived on my dad’s enlisted man’s salary, Grandmom, Mom and three kids in the house. Yes we had the advantage of cheaper prices for groceries at the PX, when we could get to a base and we had one car. One TV in the living room. Granny made most of the food from scratch and we ate leftovers and enjoyed them. In the spring and summer, we had a garden and fresh vegetables. My cousin had fruit trees, so we had fresh home canned fruit. Fresh fruit was purchased from the Amish also. Guess what, we survivied and were quite happy.
Things seem fragile with the ongoing Gaza Israel peace efforts. Maybe some things starting to move according to Sky News reporting. Especially if the alleged Gulf backing is involved.

@DropSiteNews
Sky News reveals that Israel is backing four anti-Hamas militias operating behind the “yellow line,” the ceasefire boundary for IDF troops. Militia leader Hossam al-Astal said he and others – Yasser Abu Shabab, Rami Halas, and Ashraf al-Mansi – are part of a joint plan to “remove Hamas” and establish “The New Gaza.”
His group operates less than 700 meters from Israeli positions, coordinating logistics and supply deliveries with the IDF through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Sky found similar coordination in northern Gaza, with militias receiving aid and vehicles via Israeli and PA channels, and possible Gulf backing, including ties to UAE-linked forces in Yemen. Al-Astal says, “Our project is ‘The New Gaza’ — no war, no Hamas, no terrorism.”

Very interesting article.
Ditto. Very interesting. The first time I have had some “realistic” hope. Our magnificent President is a spectacular strategist.
And this Asia tour, resulting in amazing successes, respect, and honors — is exactly what we are beginning to expect daily from this humble man and our greatest leader.
Major reason you absolutely cannot trust any “Hamas” broke the cease fire comments from Israel.
They’ve been at it for a long time and even stood up ISIS in the ME with the help of Obama’s C_A, MI6, et al, even Turkey with the intent of causing chaos via atrocity thus beginning the great Hijra into Europe.

Rev Denis Fahey The Rulers of Russia
If a Hebrew reader can confirm, according to various websites the words are from Proverbs 11:14 and translate as
For want of strategy an army falls, but victory comes with much planning.”
The other verse it may say is from Proverbs 24:6 “For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war”
the Way of Deception is from Sun Tzu -“all warfare is based on deception”
Charlie Kirk on Islamaphobia…
Looks like the left is moving toward Islamophobia is the new “Racist”. They have been calling white people(conservatives) Racist for many decades to divide us and force us to adopt socialist policies.
Now, if we say anything negative about the Islam movement and Sharia Laws we will be called Islamophobic and chastised to the side for just supporting our Constitution.
JMHO
so what ??? every thing said about islam in general is true/ they are not here to assimilate, but to conquer.
And the proper response to being called “Islamophobic” is “I absolutely am terrified of Islam. Just look at what it’s done elsewhere in the world. I do not want that here for myself, my family, or my community and neither should anyone else.”
You are correct. I could see it this coming 15 years ago when I realized Anwar Al Awaki was born in New Mexico in the 1960’s when his daddy was studying Agriculture at the University of New Mexico.
That is why the powers that be had to silence him. He was VERY effective among key demographics.

Nato Nazi-Jiahdist-Drug smuggling expansion in the Balkans especially, was meant to push Orthodox Christian Russia to China and away from unification with Western Christianity. Antagonizing and encircling Orthodox Christian Russia has been their goals all along, from the illegal wars against the Holocaust victim Serbian people, to the Clean Break Wars against secular/Shia Middle East nations that are allies or have trade ties to Russia. 9/11 was supposedly done by Sunni Wahabists, yet not one single Wahhabbi nation was attacked with the exception of the Taliban in Afghanistan which was a fiasco in itself. Everything the opposite as George Orwell said in 1984
Pat Buchanan and an America First Foreign Policy
https://kirkcenter.org/reviews/pat-buchanan-and-an-america-first-foreign-policy/
“One consequence of NATO expansion, Buchanan predicted, would be the formation of a “strategic partnership” between China and Russia, effectively undoing the brilliant triangular diplomacy of the Nixon administration which exploited Sino-Soviet political divisions to America’s benefit. Buchanan’s observation here was geopolitics 101: American security depended on the geopolitical pluralism of Eurasia. Yet, the Clinton administration seemed oblivious to this possibility. It moved ahead with the first round of NATO expansion and set in motion a process that added 14 more countries to the alliance, including Albania, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Montenegro, Slovenia, Croatia and North Macedonia. America’s nuclear guarantee eventually was extended to all of those nations. And in 2007-2008, the George W. Bush administration talked about inviting Georgia and Ukraine into the alliance. “
Once upon a time not so long ago, the sun never set on the British Empire. The US picked up where the British left off.
Britain has now been effectively destroyed along with most of Europe but our betters in DC will show them how to do it right.
Oh wait… 🤦♀️
May I point out one again that “the” United States of America, Incorporated, is a British Crown Corporation? Have a look here – it explains a lot.

Bingo! 1871 President Grant borrows money from the European Banks default in 1912 Federal Reserve/I_RS 1913 back under the crown/Rome.
More and more I think this is truely what is going on underneath.
Pat called it perfectly. And, yes, the UniParty stole his ’96 victory, just as they stole Bernie’s twice. They used their algorithm to give Sanders’ Iowa win to Bootyjudge. Bernie couldn’t object because Wray had his wife under Permanent Investigation for looting her college.
As you well know, Soros showed the Clinton/Rodham Gang how to repurpose NATO to attack patriotic nationalist governments WITHIN Europe for Globalism, Islam and Organized Crime. He literally wrote the book on it.
But Our God is reclaiming His world for His Glory, and using President Trump to do so, so Fear Not, children! The Golden Age Days of Destiny are upon us, Hallelujah!
Joshua 6
20 So the people shouted [the battle cry], and the priests blew the trumpets. When the People heard the sound of the Trump, they raised a great shout and the wall [of Jericho] fell down, so that the sons of Israel went up into the city, every man straight ahead [climbing over the rubble], and they overthrew the city. 21 Then they utterly destroyed everything that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox and sheep and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
We say Yes, Lord!
We are taking the world back for God! | Donna Rigney – YouTube
Joshua did exactly what God told him to do. King Saul did not..1 Samuel 15:8 He took Agag king of the Amalekites alive, and all his people he totally destroyed with the sword.9 But Saul and the army spared Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fat calves and lambs—everything that was good. These they were unwilling to destroy completely, but everything that was despised and weak they totally destroyed.10 Then the word of the Lord came to Samuel: 11 “I regret that I have made Saul king, because he has turned away from me and has not carried out my instructions.” Samuel was angry, and he cried out to the Lord all that night.
I remember reading that in the Bible and being kind of disgusted with so much death and destruction that I quit reading it for a while.
Looks like the Fed!
The ‘able to work’ deadbeats answer to SNAP benefits getting cut off? Well it is NOT finding a JOB!
‘Get out there and ravish!’ Woman ‘out of food stamps’ shows off stolen goods, urges others to steal at will and ‘infiltrate’ churches for cash
https://www.wnd.com/2025/10/get-there-ravish-woman-food-stamps-shows-stolen
Four weeks into the federal government shutdown, a woman claiming she’s out of food stamps is bragging online about stealing from a grocery store while urging others to steal at will and “infiltrate” churches to get cash.
The woman who goes by “consiracycutiee” and has a username of @jaalagotanattitude posted her illegal shoplifting exploits on social media, using extremely graphic language.
“I’ve also seen a lot of videos talking about how people are gonna grab baskets whenever they come out of the store. That way they’re not stealing from a store, they’re stealing from an individual,” explained one man.
And why are so many of these presumably single women complaining about starving next week WHALES? Most could see great health benefits by not getting taxpayer funded free groceries for a while. We might even save some medicaid money along the way if these WHALES lose a hundred pounds.
The fat ones just need water and multi-vitamins…
When food intake stops, the body first depletes its glycogen stores (stored glucose) within 24–48 hours. After that, it shifts to ketosis, where the liver breaks down fat into ketone bodies that the brain and other organs can use for energy.
Ketosis allows the body to sustain itself on fat for extended periods, and this process is naturally triggered during prolonged fasting. For someone with significant fat reserves, this energy supply can last for months. In theory, a person with 100+ pounds of excess fat could derive 3,500 kcal per pound, potentially sustaining basal metabolic needs (around 1,500 kcal/day) for over a year.
The old answer was they could only afford cheap calorie filled proteins like bologna and hot dogs and had to eat cheap starches like Mac and cheese to feel full on less food.
Today’s answer is to much steak and lobster smothered in butter and never having had to actually work a day in their lives.

The high-rolling, hi-tech AI wonks are “data worshipers”
…… With lofty sounding goals and benefits
…………. But they fail the “look at what they do, not what they say they are doing” test.
At their core, they are control freaks … witness the chatboxes encouraging unsuspecting users to commit suicide.
Developed in many cases by individuals and organizations not only outside the geographical bounds of America,
But, for sure, outside the “Constitutional Compliant” bounds and protection of American’s rights, freedoms and laws
AI is just the latest “computer programming” scam by globalist / communists to entice American companies and individuals to help destroy America’s Constitutional Republic and its Constitution under the guise of must-do “high-tech advancements.”
The claim is that the USA has to embrace these unconstitutional systems in order to stay ahead of the CCP’s use of them.
Think about that for a moment.
Trying to stay ahead of the CCP communists efforts to control individuals using “computer systems”?
Shouldn’t Americans be trying to defeat the CCP communist’s efforts to control individuals using “computer systems”?
That takes the implementation of anti-AI systems, not AI systems.
Yep ……
Let the “AI wonk-data-worshipers” self-fund AI all they want on their personal systems, but keep them far away from the US Treasury until they become 100% “Constitutional Compliant.”
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Great post! I read The Constitution – nothing AI can do to “help me” better understand my enumerated rights – rights that are granted and protected by law to ensure individual freedoms and limit government power.

“Pools of Blood Visible from Space”: Satellite Images Reveal Atrocities in Sudan’s El-Fasher

Why no one will be prosecuted
No one will be prosecuted, regardless.
It’s not clear to me whether they are saying what the Judiciary Committee generated was nonsense, or whether the originating documents from the FBI are nonsense?
Either way , not hopeful for prosecutions
In my dreams: either Trump himself or The RNC makes an ad that blankets all the TV screens, radio stations and online ad outlets. Blankets, smothers, can’t miss it …invests tens of millions.
The ad shows images of Antifa violence, Trump’s assassination attempt, Charlie Kirk just before he was shot, Tesla’s burning. In VA Democrats are running a n AG candidate who openly wished for the assassination of his political opponent and the violent death of his children, and the Democratic party is standing by him.
This is who they are.
The script continues by explaining that the government is shut down because Americans have soundly rejected Democrats violent vision. Americans rejected open borders and rampant crime by foreign gangs and criminals. (Images of obvious men standing on women’s award podiums and etc) And Americans rejected men in women’s sports, and in women’s showers and bathrooms.
Republican congressman and Senators have all voted to open the government and continue negotiating, but Democrats are cynically closing the government in hopes of inciting more violence by election day.
Republicans are not perfect, and we have some extreme people in our side, too.
But we’re sane. We’re not violent.
Sorry, I accidentally hit button too soon.
The reason I’m thinking about all of this is because I am incognito online totally and in life. I have to be. Long story. But anyway, what I see all over my social media is just people who are completely uninformed about what is actually going on and are spouting the most insane information. That’s not real, not true. And most of the American people don’t have a clue. They don’t watch TV news. They don’t read the newspaper. They don’t even do much social media. So you can tell them anything and they believe it. The Republican party just does not understand how much of their message is not getting out
In one week, I’ve been to an affordable housing meeting put on by my city and dealt with the absolute insanity of this SNAP business.
In a very quick nutshell, “affordable housing ” is a joke, demographically they are using data that does not include the lowest of incomes so the new affordable housing building opening here is affordable to no one but a few latinos and DV individuals but all the other rents start at 1500. The city is proud of their affordable housing that is affordable to no one who truly needs it. It will open and they will break ground on a new one. The people making under 1200/mo still will have no place to live.
SNAP, people are losing their minds, it is nuts. No one will go hungry due to a lack of food. No one. However the hysteria is real, and the Democrats may think they have a winner here but they do not. If SNAP gets cut off on Saturday, people will have to change their habits but tough. There is plenty of food. What there is not plenty of is common sense and intelligence. The most vulnerable are in trouble on both fronts (food and housing and panic due to extreme messaging) but no one seems to care about them.
It’s been rough in the trenches.
One more thing, that woman stealing food? She’s not going to a foodbank because we don’t have short ribs and boursin. We don’t have parmesan from Italy or organic butter. Mac and cheese and a can of chili are not on her menu.
Stealing is stealing. And entitlement is out of control.
Perception is reality. Mobs of people will riot if they BELIEVE they will go hungry. America has become so full of truly ignorant people without moral guardrails, there is a good chance of anarchy ahead of us. Putting America on the verge of chaos and anarchy IS the deliberate goal of Leftists. They have lost the argument in rational discussion. They have been reduced to fomenting violent temper tantrums over delusions.
– A recent report said TWO MILLION ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS are living in HUD housing. Trump administration wants to remove them.
– a co-worker claims her neighbors in Houston – family of four – get over $3,000 pee month in EBT (food stamps).
– some California schools, in addition to free breakfast and lunch, provide groceries on Fridays so “children don’t go hungry”. Some may be targeted to Latinos.
Put the HUD housing illegals on the express deportation list, give them the self-deport. $, and send them to their home country immediately.
Splodey head alert. South Korea gave our VSGPDJT a huge golden crown. Too funny.
To the black woman that is stealing food…….You are a thief…..
you are not entitled to a thing……..
I never owned slaves and you never picked cotton,
your fat arze belongs in jail………disgusting POS
was that too harsh….????
Right! A rolling con by the uniparty bilking the taxpayer for essentially reparations from The Great Society to now.
Bjork, too harsh…I don’t think so. If anything, too kind.
I’ve seen this type of entitlement and gross abuse of Food Stamps for all of my teen through adult years (63). North Florida, and now Central Florida, the usual grocery cart stuffed full, new car, fancy clothes and hats and paid for by us citizens who work, pay taxes and have none of those above items because of the fat leeches that are net negative to society. A pox upon them all.
As a side note, food riots may cause our Administration to evoke martial law. It could be the DemonCraps end game.
Stay calm. Stay armed.
…steps off soapbox…
Seeing those short video clips of so many young people saying they are going to steal food because their free meal tickets are out of money –
please consider – for those who live in areas where such thefts might happen, for those who have older parents, or grandparents, or neighbors who usually do their own grocery shopping to offer to go with them on their shopping days, even do one’s own shopping while being with the older person, as a deterrent from thieves who think that lone senior would be a perfect mark to quickly grab the groceries from their carts as they leave the grocery store.
at least until the shut down is over.
It’s not just the people using the EBT cards that could decide to target the lone senior, but now there will be a growing number of desperate junkies that cannot find their drug now that there is an actual war on drugs making it hard for those substances to get into the country.
Those two groups, cornered, can get quite ugly and the senior citizen, not paying that much attention to the current world around them, may have forgotten to practice their street smarts.
I know I’ve changed my shopping routines, being at the grocery store as early as opening time and even noticing in the Home Depot parking lots there is a growing number of ‘hispanic’ look outs keeping an eye on the vehicles coming in, and the obvious reason is they are fronts to warn those hanging out to do day labor jobs can be warned if, when, ICE shows up.
And this is in the smallest little city the changes are that noticeable.
I think they also post lookouts for their thieving buddies in the store in case the police show up.
Not at all.
Sadly, she doesn’t care.
No, it wasn’t.
No I do not think that was too harsh at all.
The President has fired the membership of the Commission on Fine Arts, the historic keepers of planning & design standards for Washington DC.

Your post on the arts council being fired recalled to me the destruction Isis did in battering and smashing ancient huge statues from previous cultures they saw as threats to Islam. How will our country survive if Islam ever gains control? It seems they look for churches to buy that they can move Islamic services into. Is it whoever has the most money who will destroy our country’s original God related founding and documents? A Muslim mayor in London AND in NY city? Support and become involved in what is happening in your local arts and museums. The devil of what is UGLY and PROFANE is knocking at our door.
Good news.
President Trump is the greatest troller of Democrats, lunatic leftists and progressives of all time the GOAT!!!
Your terms are acceptable.
As of October 2025, AI adoption is accelerating layoffs particularly in tech and white-collar sectors. Goldman estimates 2M U.S. jobs will be gone by January 1, 2026 (Grok/ GS global estimates). Their 2025 report emphasizes higher output, accelerating AI adoption and erdoding employment. This aligns with President Trump’s $17-21 trillion investment pledges which are outrageously hyperbolic (cnn.com) but closely aligned with Eric Schmidt’s AI timeline (various YouTube/Grok).
AI will produce stunning hedonic productivity for a select group of corporations, but entry-level jobs across a wide spectrum will cease to exist, meaning in time, organic attrition for senior-level jobs. Whoever you are, whatever you do, if you work, sleep, or yearn to breathe free, you will probably be unemployed or re-skilled soon, unless you are in the military or work in a politically protected arena. This isn’t happening at the pace of covid but it’s far more powerful and surreptitously accelerating without any hope of a cure.
In my opinion, AI means widespread job displacement, particularly in knowledge-work, like science, law, medicine, academics, and creative arts; writing, music, painting and sculpture, social robotics, sex and companionship, in time… upending philosophy, physics and potential immortality for an elite few. If that sounds a bit like life today… lol, it does to me as well.
I will for-the-record disagree with the much hyped notion that it will produce “stunning productivity” for anyone. There is no “I” in “AI.” What comes out is purely a product of what is put in – a curious form of programming, but programming nonetheless.
“Creativity?” “Law?” “Medicine?” The technology is not actually capable of judgment or invention. Everything that comes out is strictly a product of what is put in. Period. This is the “hype” of which I spoke.
Please don’t believe the smoke-and-mirrors now called, “AI.” The computer industry has always manipulated public perception to its own advantage. (Remember: “Y2K?” There was never anything to it, but that didn’t matter at the time. The “sale” was on!)
Right now, it dreams of selling tons of hardware. Power companies dream of selling power. Of course, gigantic government contracts. The story is now being hyped that “AI” will be able to develop computer software from scratch, eliminating jobs. Google, which has been hiring too many people anyway, now adds fuel to the fire by laying off a bunch as “unnecessary, thanks to ‘AI.'”
Just keep your eyes wide open about everything. It is not as it seems. Public perception is once again being manipulated.
Residential utility bills in New Jersey are up 17% to 20%. The PJM interconnection, a regional grid operator, manages the electricity market serving New Jersey and 13 states including the District of Columbia. Regional utilities buy power through PJM’s capacity auctions, where they secure power supply to meet peak demand. In 2025, power auctions are 267% higher in data center areas versus five years ago. AI data centers represent about 70% of PJM’s projected demand increase, and New Jersey has 75 AI facilities to date. A single 100-megawatt facility uses as much power as 150,000 homes and trillions dollars are going to be deployed to build more in the next 2 to 5 years (sources: citizensutilityboard.org / blog.gridstatus.io / apnews.com).
In a modest restaurant in Morristown, a vegetarian ramen for one is $40.00. Five ounces of wagyu beef, $150.00 if you can get a table. However, it’s not even 2026 and Senator Schumer is freaking out about riots when the government stops SNAP (virtual food stamps) for 40 million Americans in a few days.
SNAP should have ended years ago, or at least modified. All illegals should have been removed, and people should have to re-apply periodically and either get a job, or do volunteer work.
“The Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla was at the center of a tense exchange on Tuesday with the United States representative to the United Nations General Assembly, Michael Waltz, who described the Havana regime as “illegitimate and brutal” during the annual debate on the resolution against the U.S. embargo.”

After looking at the headlines on Fox Light outlets “Newsmax” and “Breitbart” … with more Unions asking the democrats to restart the government ….
It looks looks the big headlines and breathless news story within the next 10+ days will be the end to the shut down … with the media painting the democrats as the heroes …. “as the Democrats respond to their FAITHFUL UNION BASE to spare the nation’s needy from going hungry and as the democrats engage the Bad Orange Man to save healthcare coverage”.
Of course … the 1 November threshold will be crossed of course to enure healthcare becomes a crisis as well as welfare money being shut down and forced into a painful restart.
Then for weeks heading into 2026 … it will be valiant democrats battling heartless Republicans for Obamacare and more welfare money … setting up a RINO repeat of throwing the 2026 Mid-Terms.
This past weekend, a DC area food bank was emptied out in under one hour after it opened.
Not by hungry SNAP recipients whose benefits had run. But by unpaid federal workers, lined up in their late model crossovers.
Multiple Democrat plantations may soon be fighting over the same charity food (those who do not steal). That is why the federal employee unions are calling to end this shutdown. But the communist left is going all-in for their new pet voters: illegal aliens. Even if it hurts their old faithfuls. Power over party and country with these ghouls.
No argument that what you say is the UNREPORTED truth on the ground … however …
There is a distinct difference between “The UNION” and “The Members”.
The “members” do not matter to their UNION nor the democrats.
It will be spun as I described. When dealing with Democrats seeking power IGNORE the actual facts on the ground and look directly for the motives and impact the DEMOCAT Party wants to have on their lemming followers.
Optics (and narratives) are all these people normally think about. They normally would care, if the optics were the priority. But not anymore.
It is uncontrolled and dangerous optics to have two traditional constituencies under their tent fighting each other, or which they are willing to openly damage en masse.
This party has been in its own civil war for over a decade, and many things on that raging side are now coming to a head. Their revolution has started, just under their own roof. It’s now exclusively about power, and increasingly, violence. They don’t care about political casualties anymore, even their own. Optics and narratives be damned. This is a pure and desperate power play now. The trajectory is otherwise against them.
They were willing to throw the Jewish block under the bus for the green (Muslim) power this past summer. They are certainly now willing to throw the black and Beltway blocks under the bus for the red (straight Communism) power rising in their younger and imported ranks.
The Democrat wing is going all-in on a green/red allied revolt. Against their party, and against America. It’s all they have left. PDJT’s unstoppable immigration policy, redistricting, and the expected neutering of the RVA are systematically destroying their future electoral foundations. And their establishment leadership is being overrun with young brown communists, supported by hordes of illegal aliens here for the government care.
True but the Marxist Wing of the democrat party has already won control with the bending of the knee by Schumer, Jefferies and Obama last week .. endorsing the slate of openly Marxist Mayoral and State Candidates are offering in 2026.
The new wave of Marxist Candidates for congress are coming next.
The battle for control is over … now it’s time to consolidate and plan the next steps involving the 2026 Elections and winning the “faux battle” for the $2-3+ Trillion needed for Obamacare, Welfare of Citizens and Auto-Pen Immigrant Welfare … which will occur for the rest of the year.
Still do not understand why Grassley clings to the ‘blue card’ veto. He’s effectively aiding and abetting the Dems strategy to slow things down so PDJT cannot get his slate of AGs and judges in place. We are at a point in history where it’s for all the marbles. What doesn’t this 80+ year old man understand?
He wants the power. The ability for a single senator to effectively veto a presidential nomination is insane, but it conveys a tremendous amount of power, hence financial gain.
By design … a Bush II Federal Judge in CA dismissed a Temporary Federal Prosecutor and threw a delay into all the CA cases related to this prosecutor. The operative term TEMPORARY or in plain langue a President Trump favorite whom the RINO’s will not support.
Those 200+ appointees approve 2-weeks ago were not folks whom were President Trump’s top picks.
As the clock runs out on or as Judges dismiss TEMPORARY appointees … more compromises on actual names will be made … or a landmine holdover will assume the role of LEAD per the policy of the agency involved.
You don’t understand he understands.
Sometimes,
the senate rules benefit a party (and disbenefit another party)
then other times, when the slim majority switches,
the senate rules benefit a party (and disbenefit another party)
Now then, getting to a 2/3 + 2 majority, would be another story.
[ and that takes voters across the country to achieve, over multiple elections ]
imho
What load of bull.
Those precious Senate rules you cling to have been suspended (switched on and off more times than all Refrigerator Light Bulbs ever installed) whenever needed by ALL Political Parties since Congressional Rules were put in place.
Your argument is an EXCUSE for INACTION by a collaborating Senate.
He’s effectively aiding and abetting the Dems strategy
Answered your own question.
JUST IN: Senate Votes 52-48 to Nuke Trump’s Tariffs on Brazil —
These Five RINOs Voted with the Democrats | The Gateway Pundit:
“Rand Paul (KY)Thom Tillis (NC)Susan Collins (ME)Lisa Murkowski (AK)Mitch McConnell (KY)” …….
Brazil’s Commie Puppet was installed by the CIA’s Dominion CheatWare–hi, Tina.
They were gifting Brazil to Chy-Na. Nice of Mitch & Co. to self-identify, though.
Is this a new bill? or something that originated in the senate, which now has to go to congress, then back to the senate and then finally to President Trump’s desk for his veto signature from his actual hand and not from an auto-pen.
It did originate in the Senate. Hopefully the House shoots it down.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/81?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%22brazil%22%7D&s=1&r=2
It’s a Senate Joint resolution, which means it now has to go to the House for a vote, which rumor has it House Speaker Johnson has no intention of bringing it to the floor for a vote. And even if it does make it to a committee, one single change in it, if voted on in the House, has to go to a committee made of both Congressmen and Senators, then changes approved in committee has to get voted on by both houses of Congress, and then, and only then, if approved would go to the President to sign, or Veto.
As Dr. McCoy in Star Trek would say “It’s dead Jim, it’s dead.”
Speaker Johnson has said he will not bring that bill to the floor. It was a wasted effort, but at least we can see the traitors who voted for it:
Rand Paul, Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and Tom Tillis.
Disgraceful!
Wasted, in that there will likely be no vote in the House … but that was not the purpose of the VOTE … it was a warning that some ominous compromise related to the shut down is coming.
Combine this vote with the story line that for 3-days running there have been stories of Senate Leader Thune being in discussions with Schumer regarding the shut down.

FTA “Five Senate Republicans just sided with Democrats against President Trump’s tariffs on Brazilian imports, voting 52-48 to block these tariffs.
But don’t worry, it’s meaningless because they’ll never make it through the House and, even more so, get signed by Trump.
So who were these five Republicans? The typical RINOS:
1. Rand Paul
2. Mitch McConnell
3. Thom Tillis
4. Lisa Murkowski
5. Susan Collins
Paul, speaking on the Senate floor, called the tariff a tax on U.S. consumers. The Kentucky Republican argued that the Constitution requires that “taxes must originate in the House” of Representatives. “Yet, these taxes are originating with the White House,” he said. McConnell, in a statement, said that Trump’s tariffs are hurting Kentucky businesses and farms.
round up the usual suspects. Cornyn would be one if he wasn’t in an election year

FTA “Zohran Mamdani is New York City’s next mayor. There are those who are holding out hope that some scandal will break or the polls are wrong or he’ll get deported or… something. But the last real sliver of hope of an electoral reversal died when neither Andrew Cuomo nor Curtis Sliwa dropped out before early voting began. It will take an act of God to stop Mamdani at this point, and I’m being quite literal when I say that. As bad as things are going to get in the Big Apple, we have to turn our focus to the rest of the country. The Islamist-Marxist contagion must be contained. We’ve seen a glimpse of what happens to western society once the contagion spreads. It happened in London and is now spreading throughout the United Kingdom. As bad as Sadiq Khan has been for the Brits, Mamdani represents a far worse potential for America.
This battle is not between right and left—it’s between those who believe in truth and those who believe in power. Mamdani’s rise was made possible not just by radical activism but by the apathy of good people who stopped paying attention. Christians, patriots, and traditionalists cannot afford to look away anymore. Every election now has spiritual weight. Every school board, city council, and mayor’s office can either preserve or poison the fabric of the nation. New York City made its choice. Some would argue that the Globalist Elite Cabal forced the choice upon them. Now, the rest of America must make our own choices by defying the rise of ideological idiocy that follows. We can shake our heads and mock the insanity, or we can recognize that what begins in the cities rarely stays there. If we want to preserve our country’s soul, we must treat the ideology that elevated Mamdani as the virus it is—and seal it off before it spreads beyond control.”
Mamdani is a virus worse than Covid-19 and many did that virus kill? JD Rucker is always a good read! JMO
This article could be applied to Obama back in 2008. Those of us with a brain saw it coming. Now America is paying the price.
I think it will be surprising if it is not between the Marxist and the property owning class who can fix this race down at Tammany Hall, for Cuomo. That includes flushed individuals and corporations.
Particularly for our friends to the North, and for all Treepers with a sense of humor, is Jag-meat Singh a “Male”, a “Non-Male”, or a “None of the Above”?
