The Still Hour – Prayers and Verses for Memorial Day
Treepers Prayers and Prayer Requests

💒
Thank you ed.
I’m sorry, I think I inadvertently flagged this comment. I’d like to go on the record that if I ever flag a comment it’s purely by accident. I so appreciate everyone’s thoughts and contributions. I love this site and visit multiple times a day.
AMEN
Amen
Amen
Amen
Amen. Many flowers I take up to the cemetary every year to honor my parents and those who have served to defend our country. This year I put an American flag in the flowers I placed on my maternal Grandparents graves. This flag is for my Uncle Paul who is buried at Arlington cemetary.
An Uncle I never met, who lied about his age to enlist, and became a fighter pilot in WWII. His plane was shot down somewhere near New Guineua.
My Grandmother did not believe the body that was buried was his as his dog tag’s were never recovered. It was a generational thing that occurred after that. His five sister’s always had a shred of doubt that their brother had died. And that shred of doubt was passed done to all of their children. I am one of them.
Will not be having a picnic tomorrow SNORT. I will be watching movies the likes of “The Deer Hunter, ” and/or “Saving Private Ryan.” Memorial Day for me is a time to grieve those who went to war and did not come back alive again. Its the least I can do to honor them.
Always live a life worthy of their sacrifice. Thank you for your actions. So many today do not know, do not care. Some carry everyday, bless you.
The Game Plan

“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!!!”

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.
Day 126 of the 2nd year of the 2nd term of this very stable genius. History is being made in the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2026.
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 continues to make 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 second term, he is weeding them out faster and choosing like-minded servants who multiply his effectiveness. 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 does not show humility before men, but his actions show humility before God.
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 is not afraid to call out our enemies.
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 to the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the same healthy distrust held by our founders of government and men with too much power. 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 believes that nations who treat their people well will also be good economic neighbors with us.
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. Lord please bring your power and might in the daily working of this sacred Nation you gave us.
Amen
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; both now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
Amen
Amen

Sorry AdRem. I posted last night and they didn’t show up. Posted again this morning and now there are two sets. Please delete redundant posts
On this last Monday in May…
Or as Dad would say…‘Decoration Day’…
Take some time to reflect…
Give past Patriots respect…
And be sure to leave a bouquet.

In Flanders FieldsBy John McCrae
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
She’s the reason they put directions on a shampoo bottle…(to quote Senator Kennedy)

A Memorial Day Weekend Remembrance.
Every year, Americans begin their unofficial start to summer with a holiday, the last Monday of May marked on our calendars as “Memorial Day.”
I’d like to approach this solemn day from a different perspective this year. Memorial Day isn’t about picnics, pool parties, cookouts, going to the beach, NASCAR events, horse racing or baseball and the like. All of these activities are fun don’t get me wrong. But just for a brief moment, let’s just respectfully pause and offer a prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord for the ultimate sacrifice of some individuals, anonymous to most of us personally, yet their sacrifice serves as the cornerstones to the stability we all enjoy.
I may have shared this story with you previously but I think it’s apropos today. A couple of years ago, we were traveling in the plush countryside of the Normandy region of France on vacation. We visited a cemetery of fallen D-Day soldiers from the UK and the Commonwealth. I randomly came upon the grave of a 16 year boy who died fighting in France. I quietly stood adjacent to his resting place with the sun just peaking over the trees on the solemn grounds. I briefly allowed myself to image for a moment what he could have looked like as I basked in the tranquil sea of silence all around me. I wondered if he ever kissed a girl or raised a beer to his chums in a smoke-filled pub. He was so young; he probably wasn’t married and probably had no children. I assume he didn’t complete any formal education and was unable to pursue a career in one of his interests. Yet, by his actions he valiantly served because he believed in putting everything on the line to preserve what is so dear to a lot of us – freedom. He placed himself in the path of tyranny and didn’t move. It cost him his life. So for all of those in the past, who served in wars and conflicts preserving freedom for others – people they never met: I simply say, THANK YOU. I humbly salute you and offer my gratitude for your ultimate sacrifice. You are a real hero.
If you are so inclined please offer the following prayer with me.
“Lord, thank you for watching over our country; preserving her for 250 years. Lord, please continue to help our nation be that beacon for those who yearn for the gifts of freedom of expression and ability to worship You – unrestricted by government or our enemies. We honor those who died protecting the our nation and way of life. Bless those they left behind and with our sincerest gratitude Lord please comfort them always through their personal loss. And finally, I ask Lord, show me ways I can honor those who died by rolling up my sleeves and working hard to preserve the greatest country in human history. In Jesus’ Name we pray, Amen.”
God Bless America.
Wishing you and your family, a blessed Memorial Day.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. – John 15:13

Top psychiatrist reveals how reciting a 2,000-year-old biblical prayer rewires your brain
https://www.dailymail.com/sciencetech/article-15841703/psychiatrist-lords-prayer-brain-Daniel-Amen.html
FULL REMARKS: Marco Rubio Speaks On Iran, India, Pakistan And Hezbollah Before Taj Mahal Visit |AC1B
ok, please don’t knock me in the side of the head. I was happy with all the wonderful stuff Trump is doing, and I thought maybe Tucker Carlson had maybe changed his tune, more aligned with Trump again.
So I quicked checked what Tucker was saying, and Tucker seems to be double-ing down against Trump. Tucker is saying all the AI data centers are the final nail in the coffin of America! Why, because the BIG BANKS are going to lock down everything, and totally control your money and what they allow you to buy, when you can buy something. Is this the “real” reason for the push of MASSIVE DATA Centers being built. … this that true? Are people shielding Trump from this info. We know how Fauci mislead Trump, and others mislead TRUMP in the past with the covid CIA op . This could be a hugh OP to push TRUMP on the AI DATA Centers to control all banking.
Maybe Sundance can use his investigative skills in accessing if this could be true.
AGAIN, I’m just asking MAGA if the AI scam could be a Trojan Horse … telling Trump AI systems are to protect America from Enemies and to beat China AI. Tucker thinks Trump is falling for trap set up for Trump. Again, I’m pro Trump, but after the Fauci covid scam, … I want to know who is selling this AI business to Trump, and if some people in Trump Admin could be part of scam. Tulsi was uncovering CIA stuff, and I think they found a way to remove Tulsi.
It all boils down to this… are our Constitutional rights being systematically dismantled and rendered void?
Would our government use red flag events to distract the American public?
Automotive kill switches in your car.
Digital banking.
Nudging moves to make using hard currency more and more difficult.
Takeover of farm land that will not return to its original state until Christ Himself comes again.
They’ll cut off health care, vitamin supplements, Nobel winning life saving medications, meat, baby formula, pet food, and the fertilizer that grows it all… and if you sqwauk too loudly… they’ll release a plague to silence you.
Catharine Austin-Fitts breaks it all down in lay man’s terms.
If elections are mismanaged and we are really living in theater now… who else could control the 2A crowd?
Are our children safer today than they were 40 years ago?
Period.
Freedom is not free, it it bought and paid for with blood and sacrifice.
The men and women who paid that cost have been forgotten by most…
Yes!
Today is for remembering those that paid that cost, and being thankful for them.
I am part of that grateful nation.
Not by me, my friend. Not by me. We are still paying… some with our own daughter for speaking out.
Ex was military Intel, father was military police narcotics division. Both career men.
My solidarity is with the warrior… mine more the Spiritual Warrior… because I’ll never shut up speaking the Name of Jesus. No matter what the cost.
I’ve learned to battle… and I’ve learned where my help comes from. It comes from The Lord, The Maker of Heaven and earth… and the soldiers therein.
Faith in the word of God is important but we here on earth must do our part to stop the rot that is spreading across our nation.
God helps those who help themselves.🖖🏻
And who is going, DG? Who is going? What is the average age of the reader of these boards? This is our children’s fight because most who read here are aged out of this fight…
Have you witnessed our children’s competency and their allegiances???
Even mine who was raised in a Christian home, who loved The Lord her God above all else, who was in exceptional private Christian education for 9 years, who was a mighty Spiritual Warrior in her own right… even she was overcome and carried away by online and in person sex predator demons.
Even the strongest are mere mortals in Spiritual Warfare.
Without God behind you, around you, in front of you… clearing your path… the war wages on. It is only through God we fight and win the war. Will His People be drawn into combat… very likely so… but the REAL BATTLE is against satan and his demons indwelling the lost.
Defeat satan… you defeat it all and save many.
I’m not arguing with you, dear brother.. but looking at this from the Heavenly level. We all must know who God Is and what He Demands.
I understand your words and agree for the most part, I myself am feeling the slow decay of this mortal frame. I don’t have the strength that I had 10 years ago when I first started reading here and since retuning to the US my body seems to be falling apart at an accelerated pace and I worry about where I will be in another 10 years. I have struggled with the VA for over 30 years trying to get them to recognize things like tennitus and hearing loss from working with mortars, things that today are considered presumptive but 30 years ago they wouldn’t acknowledge and said it was from cutting grass or using circular saws. Now the pain in my knees, hips, shoulders and neck have gotten to the point where I am unable to do simple tasks let alone work in the trades, something that I enjoyed when I was younger despite the hard work, I took immense pride in building something that would still be here when I would be gone from this realm.
I for one will not depend on a younger generation to do the right thing…
Have you got any holistic practitioners around you DG?
You can learn a tremendous amount about improving your diet to become more nutrient dense online, but a holistic practitioner certainly can help.
I get that you like to use the VA, BUT don’t waste time being poorly served there because as you are explaining, things are going down hill with your health faster than the VA will be fixed.
So move on Sir, seek answers elsewhere.. don’t just sit there and take it as you fall apart.
Many of our health issues are dietary in nature, our food supply is junk and we’re often severely deficient in our vital nutrients. You can heal yourself to a large degree by seeing food as medicine and eating to cure.
You’d be surprised at how much better you’ll feel just from getting the right amount of vitamin D, Magnesium and the Bs.

Triple Bingo NH! Heavenly Father provided all we need to exist in this world! Diet lays the solid basic foundation to build on! The whole food of a good solid meal is the driving force. Americans today relies on the convenience of fast/prepackaged foods. There is the problem! All that food is loaded with Linoleic acid which is destructive to our temple of being! Linoleic acid is the main ingredient that goes directly to the liver and heart as fat, not what surrounds ones mid section! Gut health is the key to a healthy body! In other words, we ARE what we eat!!! In today’s medicine is taught to prescribe medications to treat symptoms, not curing the issue! In the education of medical practice, nutrition from food is not taught, just take this pill for the rest of your life! Those pills have side effects that require more pills! See the issue? the Big Pharma wants more of your hard earned money! Instead of just accepting the pill for the rest of your life, ask your doctor how to cure the symptom, then watch the facial contortions! I’ll step off my soap box now.
Remember the people that gave all!!
Great advice NH. We can help our health more than we think and nutrition is a main player in all of it. Eat as clean as you can and supplement the vital nutrients that make our bodies work well and heal themselves.
Americans are what RFK said, the unhealthiest nation in the world while being the richest nation in the world and a lot of it is because of what we eat. It’s a huge effort to change your diet and eat better foods here in America, when we have been brought up on junk food and are bombarded with advertising to eat that junk food and there’s a junk food business on every corner. Kids are addicted to sugar early in their lives and then vaccinated with so many jabs that play havoc with their immune systems on top of poor nutrition.
It is very hard to change lifelong habits and ways of doing things, but we can do it. What I wish is that there were more people aware of what has happened to us here in America to ruin our health in so many ways. The food, chemical and agriculture big corporations are a huge problem that is going to take many years to solve and only if people are made to realize how they are being controlled by them.

Thank you for the advice, I don’t just like to use the VA, at the moment the VA is all I have access to. I am still waiting on my Birth certificate so I can get a state ID so I can start working and begin building my life over. I do try and eat good food, I eat a paleo diet, mostly protein, fruit and vegetables as little carbs as possible. My vitamin D levels are twice what is considered normal as per my labs last month ( I chalk that up to all the walking I do and thus all the sun exposure I receive). I am currently taking magnesium to help me sleep on a daily basis plus a daily multivitamin.
DG: As a former County Commissioner, I know that our local county Veteran’s Service Officer is a tireless advocate for the vets when dealing with VA issues. Some of them may be less enthusiastic than others, but contacting your County Commissioner for assistance may be a great idea.
Do not negate what you have just gone through, DG. You walked yourself out of Mexico with 20 pesos in your pocket. How many could walk ten blocks in either direction? You lost your friend to death. Your dog, too. We are all captivated by a system where our wealth is squandered and pillaged by invaders, The root of all malfeasance… is evil.
Cortisol. Cortisol is the “fight or flight” mechanism within us and you’ve had much stress. We are of a certain age, and must be wise. Give yourself time to recoop and restore.
Remember, Moses spent the first 40 years in opulence, the second 40 years as refugee, and the last 40 years as God-appointed and equipped leader of a great nation.
Paces, friend.
Thank you dear friend, I am still grieving for my Trouble and ask daily for Gods help to forgive me for the hate I still carry in my heart.
Although I still tear up when I think of her, every time I see her picture it gets a little easier for me to bear, one day I will be able to forgive myself for my rash decision that led to our parting. 🙏🏻
DG – you may not have gotten out of Mexico with her. I am sorry to say that, but God works all things for the good of those who love Him and who are called according to His Purpose. You didn’t have identification – you and the young lady who also made it through – were both blessed to not have further complications.
Trouble knows your love for her. She knows. I believe our pets will be in Heaven waiting for us, because my Heaven wouldn’t be complete without them.
Remember, Colonel Sanders started his first KFC franchise at 62 years old. Amazing things can still happen to you. You have the strength, stamina, and determination – I look forward to seeing prayers for you answered.
God bless you, friend.
You should be grateful and hopeful for the younger generations.
Folks 50+ (especially the 65+ crowd) are largely responsible for the mess we are currently in. The up-and-comers will thankfully improve things and never take us back to this place. I have faith in them!
Stick to playing tennis with a pingpong paddle it is probably all you are ever going to be good at…
If the 65 and above are responsible for all the woes why is it that the 64 and younger didn’t fix things instead of continuing a spiral down? Seems like it wasn’t until the 65 and above handed the reins to our nation to the youngers that it declined to a liberal estate of communism.
People around here seem to hate modern medicine, but my husband was in increasing pain and resigned to a miserable last years when his doctor told him to go to physical therapy.
The physical therapist did a bunch of stretches and told him to start going to the gym.
He feels MUCH better. I now do most of the stretching his therapist did and he can do many exercises on his own.
There are some good physical therapist YouTube channels if cost is a problem.
If your worst pain is upon waking in the morning (as was my hubby’s), take your pain med when you wake up in the wee hours before you go back to sleep. That way it’s all on board when you get up.
I hope you feel better
Sorry JWoo, but ‘God helps those who help themselves’ is not in the Bible and in truth is contrary to Christian teachings.
What the Word of God, written through humans by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, teaches is for man to surrender all our needs to the Lord. We are His creation.
We are to trust the Lord to work out all matters, to know if He desires our involvement, He will reveal that to us! Then we, like obedient soldiers, obey.
The Lord reigns over all and He is Sovereign! HE IS GOD and we are not……
We must always put God first if we want to bring America to restoration!
👁️👁️ Just because it is not in the bible does not mean that they are not words worth living by, you can pray all you want but in the end you must take responsibility for what happens around you on a daily basis.
God is good ~ DG 🖖🏻
A soldiers prayer…
You missed my point. God is God and we are not!
He alone knows what we must do to fulfill His Plan for America. If we choose to NOT follow His direction we will pay the price of failure!
I, for one, desire victory for America through the Mighty Hands of our God—not human hands, however ‘wise’ they may think they are!
If you check out the history of this nation you will see that the Lord guided God-fearing men who led us to victory over and over.
Sadly, since the nation’s leaders of the 1960’s to the present time, we have gradually kicked God out of our nation. We cannot deny the ugly results!
It is time to return to surrendering America to the leadership of our Sovereign Creator, JESUS CHRIST!!
Absolutely. Imo, God does not want us to be passive soldiers. He expects us to take care of what He gave us in granting us life here on Earth imo. The trials and tribulations we face are real and we must do our part for Him as we move through our lives. This is where we can show our thankfulness and love for Him and Jesus became one of us and gave His life for us to do just that.
Good must be protected over evil here where Satan roams. We are God’s children and he will be with us always and we trust in His will being done, but we must do our part while we live on this earth. Just how I feel I must actively and according to my ability, however limited, serve God here on earth.
Forgive me JWoo, this was not intended for you.
At 82 I guess my eyes are not what they used to be—Sorry~
You’re all good, Carolynn. These boards can be tricky – I just want to make sure that it is clear Whom my allegiance is to!!!!
Blessings on you.
I didn’t write “God helps those who help themselves”, Carolynn. Please review the thread.
JWoo please see my comment above~
God works through human agency.
He most certainly doesn’t want us to sit idly by while communists/marxist destroy what He has built.
On the off chance that whatever removed my posts from last night is resolved, I would remind that much knowledge and many directions from Christ were not so plainly said, but exist nonetheless.
Matthew 25:14-30
per Ronald Reagan…
.”….Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.”
https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/ronald_reagan_183965
There are many reasons why we are facing what we are these days, ,mainly it is because America is NOT full of Americans anymore. The “Gimiegrents” and Commies have outnumbered the true Americans who have generational history. There are those who are reaching for the levers of power and are using the Constitution against us and the complacency of others to do it. People like Bill Gates use there money and power to subvert the will of We the People and it is probably just because someone shoved a pie in his face years ago.
Only We the People can fix this! 🇺🇲
Food and “health” products already controlled w chemicals. Integrity is in very small supply. Govt already controls EVERYTHING. Study microbiology and you’ll see a whole new world!
Brother in biology – VP in marketing at major Pharma. Daughter’s Father in mRNA research on cancer bought out by Pfizer for $45B in 2024. Great uncle was a world renown venomologist. Another Great Uncle pioneer in artificial hearts and lungs… there is an award named after him.
My experience… deep military family, formerly married to analyst in intelligence, daughter of a narcotic military police officer, inorganic chemicals (I used to write MSDS’S and balance equations for production orders and order materials for production as the AA of a Vice President and chemical engineer, when I was a child of 18 years old), heavy machinery, and oil and gas. Emergency responder for power generation to go with the industrial engines for oil and gas… among other things.
I’m no idiot.
I see… and I naturally study and assess risks…
Our country barely makes it to 250 years and our near future makes our past look like Gomer Pyle. It will be what comes after and who survives it… that will be interesting.
Attributed to Albert Einstein: “I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.”
All could be true but you’re forgetting one important part. We the People. Hundreds of millions of us. Do you think we are just going to go quietly into the good night? That’s an awful lot of people to control completely and many will revolt against the control if they know about it.
Yes we are complacent many times because we all are trying to live our best lives and concentrating on that daily, but I still have faith God and good people will save our country and the world eventually. Our children deserve that effort and real Americans aren’t totally gone yet. The enemy is making a good push to get us gone by flooding our land with foreigners who know nothing about our heritage, by changing and ignoring laws, by promoting communism and foreign infiltration into our govts at every level, but there are still real red blooded Americans out here and they will fight for freedom and American ways of life.
God decides what happens in the end and we may have to suffer before we are saved and our country free again, but we must have faith, be vigilant, fight for the rights we have been given and work together to give the heritage of this country to our children and grandchildren children. Take back our education systems and teach real American history. We have many ways to fight yet including fighting the push for AI centers right now.
This article by Michael Smith relates to this discussion we are having about what humans should be doing here. Both secular philosophy and religious meaning are looked at. ‘Why humans are condemned to be free.’ It is a good read, imo.

“Would our government use red flag events to distract the American public?”
Yep… Take a look at photos of the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City… (they are still available on-line) Our “FBI” said it was blown up by a rental truck filled with explosives that was parked in the street in front of the building, but the photos show that the front of the building was blown outwards toward the street!
Any demolitions expert will tell you that the explosives were placed inside the Murrah Building…
“Automotive kill switches in your car.”?
Already in there… Have been for the last few years…
“Digital banking.”?
Yep, both of my banks have recently notified me that the banking system will be “enhanced” in the next few weeks…
“make using hard currency more and more difficult.”?
Been going on for years, almost there now, some local businesses will only take credit cards, no cash purchases allowed…
“Takeover of farm land that will not return to its original state until Christ Himself comes again.”?
Yep… Using “eminent domain” to take over family farms to build “large data centers” and generate the power used to run them… Could just build them in sparsely populated desert areas, but the real reason is to get rid of the farms.
As to Christ Himself coming: John the Revelator tells us it ain’t quite time yet… If our farmlands are gonna be saved, we are gonna have to grow a set of balls and do it ourselves.
“They’ll cut off health care,”…
Easy one… just go up on the cost of medical insurance until no one can afford it, (like they are doing now)…
“vitamin supplements,”… Bills already up in our “congress” to make supplements, over-the-counter aspirin, tylenol, etc. available only with a Doctors prescription…
“life saving medications,”?
Yep, millions of people could have been saved with Ivermectin, HCL, etc. during the fake covid epidemic, yet they were given doctor? fauci’s Remdesivir…
“meat”? “fast food” joints are already serving you “lab-grown” meats, canned soup makers are also using “lab-grown” ingredients in their soups… Don’t eat that crap, it is just a bunch of chemicals…
“baby formula,? ” Can’t comment on this one… haven’t bought baby formula for 60+ years… Am 87 years old, when I had babies we had to go milk the cow to get “baby formula”…
“pet food,”? On it’s way out… The muslims don’t like dogs, and we have already let them take over Minnesota, Michigan, Texas, et al…
“the fertilizer that grows it all…?” …Awww Hell, use your head… If we don’t have farms, why would we need fertilizer?
“and if you sqwauk too loudly… they’ll release a plague to silence you.”
Working on it now, have to get it up and operating before the mid-term “elections”… Gonna call it the “Hantavirus Plague” so our “government” can just rename and give us the left-over covid clot-shots…
“If elections are mismanaged and we are really living in theater now…”
“Elections” are obviously well managed as evidenced by how easily the dims/commies can steal them without consequence… Yes, “Wake up and smell the roses”, we have been living in theater for years now…
“who else could control the 2A crowd?”
It is exceedingly obvious that the dims/commies are very successful in controlling the 2A crowd.
Otherwise, we would have gone to Washington D.C. and drained the swamp years ago… If my Dad and the Heroes that fought and won WWII were still alive, they would have already drained the swamp for us…
“Are our children safer today than they were 40 years ago?”
Nope… No way children are safer today… There are pedophiles galore to attack, torture, and abuse our children, and who, thanks to our DOJ, will never face the consequences for such behavior…
“Period.”
Go with your gut. Make your own mind.
I’m sorry but I didn’t even read your wholepost because I don’t care about what Tucker or any of them are talking about.
What is the grievance now? AI?
Every day they find something that panic about and people set their hair on fire … they never change their strategy and people keep falling for it.
Do you think President Trump is selling us out? Join the PaidCasters. They might give you a solution.
Rich, you say you are wary of Tucker, but you run in fear of Trump because of a few words from Tucker.
Then you regurgitate for us the fears Tucker instilled in you.
Starting by whining to not knock you on the head fully implies that you planned this.
It is hard to know if a concern troll is truly concerned, or mendacious.
I think of them as zombies, infecting all they come into contact with.
Your related tale describes how you infected yourself. And then immediately sought more brains to destroy.
Maybe, if you hadn’t planned on infecting our brains, you could cure yourself. As Sundance says, live your best life. And put your faith in God, not men.
Better still, if this was an intended attack, you could repent, turn to Christ, accept forgiveness for your sins, and go and sin no more. And live your best life with your faith in God.
Either way. Best wishes. Even if the world is out to get you, there is no need to live your life in fear.
Put your faith in God and live your best life.
Jim
I will not answer your post and instead ask GOD to guide me and lead me in HIS LOVING WAY.
That theory is very plausible. But if true… at some point we must stop making excuses for those being misled a/o failing to do their own homework.
I worry for my children’s future. Sometimes I just cry at the state of our country & where it’s headed. The signs are everywhere if you’re clear eyed. Prepare for the worst, but hope for the best.
I have held Catherine Austin Fitts in high regard for years. Altho I don’t know whether to believe it, she has said that in her opinion the tech sector has backed Trump for the specific purpose of planning to use him to bring in the CBDCs (which is how money etc can be perfectly controlled). As brilliant and God-directed as Trump is in this term I would be shocked if the plan worked – assuming there is a plan. Still, I personally wouldn’t believe anything Tucker says about anything at this point as he has a bad case of TDS. Catherine Austin Fitts does give me pause, however.
p.s. CBDC = Central Bank Digital Currency (to replace private cash and bank accounts)
Who owns Quantum Computing?
Them(Cabal)or us?
As Sundance continually reminds us – all we see from here out is designed to split the MAGA base. So, your questions answer themselves.
FUD – fear, uncertainty, doubt is all they have left againat those of us who see the truth.
There is no gray, just a clear choice between good and evil. Stand and fight with the only man since our Founders who has taken on the essence of eternal evil which fuels the globalist control of this world, or economic slavery.
AI will collapse under it’s own weight. How much good and damage occurs from that…..we’ll see. Decentralized digital currency will fuel liberty from the chains of central banking, just as centralized digital currency will temper them.
Tucker is irrelevant. A paid pundit.
many of us come here to hear Sundance’s view on these subjects, and in a way, that was my intention with my post. If there is a problem, it is better to bring it up, pray about it, and see what others wih more experience and wisdom says.
We have some really smart and prayerful people on this site, and I don’t want to bury my head in the sand if something comes up. Actually, I take my problems to GOD , and in SILENCE I FEEL the ANSWER (in addition to going to other GOD Centered people to come together (where 2 or more people come together in prayer to GOD works for me). GOD seems to like that I’m more flexible compared to how I used to be (before I took my problems to GOD. I know GOD ALMIGHTY LOVES all of us, even when I act like a fool, which happens, … and I’m used to others also acting like fools, just like I do. GOD forgive us all when we are foolish. Please, and Thank YOU … I love the way GOD is educating me. GOD doesn’t yell at me ever, … but I FEEL when I get off track, and quickly stay close to GOD, and I feel the FLOW of GOD’S SPIRIT surrounding me. The horrible angry/fearful way I used to live in, … if it comes back, I STOP whatever I’m doing, immediately, and in SILENCE go to GOD.
The devil knows how to get into our heads – he preys upon our weaknesses. Doubt is one of those – faith in our Lord will counter it. The Holy Spirit does convict us , he also counsels us and comforts us.
It is age old. The Pharisees are now dispersed among us.
“Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and taste
I’ve been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man’s soul and faith
And I was ’round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate”
I am actually looking forward to more signs of the end times.
lol! good one Joan!
Well, in a certain way there are NO END TIMES. Yeah, we will cast off the mortal frame, but live on , we are all Children of GOD … and GOD LOVES ALL of us… (GOD’s Spirit extends to HEAVEN and HELL and far beyond.)
The BIBLE discusses the BEGINNING and ENDING of the WORD of GOD’s Creation! But before the beginning GOD IS, and ALWAYS IS. ….Worlds without End.
So it is a little like getting on a roller coaster, it has it’s ups and downs, and goes around and around and around, … same ride … different people get on and off the ride. When you as a child of GOD get tired of the ride, you get off, and go to next ride. HOPEFULLY as we become more LOVING and KIND and GOOD, you will be guided to better WORLDS … on the LAST RIDE, it will be so much FUN, and YOU will be Laughing and Smiling, and SINGING in PRAISES TO GOD … you will be taken to …. (wait for it, wait for it… )
I understand I will kick the bucket, or transition to NEXT PLACE, and once I’m gone from this trip. ONE SECOND after that event, I will not look back! I don’t think you will either, the earth as been spinning for many rounds/years/centuries/ eon’s. I hope I go in fun way with SINGING GOD’S Praises! Thanks GOD for the FUN TRIP. 🙂
Sundance recently put up a post regarding whether or not concerns relating to AI/Datacenters were ‘organic’ or driven by negative influencers. There were quite a few comments on the topic, including my own. You can find it a week or two ago – or by searching for “data centers”.
I don’t like AI But…..
I think of GIGO (Garbage In Garbage Out)
I would rather have the United States control the input
instead of countries like China.
The BigTech oligarchs know no allegiance to our Republic – only to those who ensure their capital.
It’s the techno giants creating the emergency to provide the solution.
never forget the cost of freedom…………
Such a true picture of Memorial Day for those left behind. Powerful and sad.
Keeping America true to its roots is the only real way to honor those fallen soldiers.
Happy Memorial Day Bjorkdream.
For those whose loved ones paid the price, I am part of that grateful nation; may God heal their pain.
💔
Amen, bjorkdream.
God bless you.
Again, thank you for serving and sacrificing so much. 🇺🇸
Thank you to all Treepers who served.
God bless you all and may you have a peaceful day of remembrance.
There are two photos for me, bjorkdream, which bring home what sacrifice costs, not only in terms of those who never came home…
This is the other.
Betsy…indeed…….thank you
This was from years ago, dear sir. This lad is grown now. I can’t know, but I am willing to bet he followed in his father’s footsteps into the military. In honour of his memory.
Here is another of a young boy, from PDJT’s first term when he was visiting Arlington on this day of remembrance.
Harrison this was well said, by you
I just watched a video of this meeting. This young man was so proud of his father. And President Trump spoke with him, not at him, listening intently as this lad showed of precious mementos. Very moving.
Well BJ, you just made this 80 year old draftee get tears in his eyes on this Decoration Day.
Thanks for the reminder of what today really means!
Blessings, dear sir…
I cannot see Memorial Day as anything but a sacred one. This young man’s father would be so proud of him. My mother’s heart breaks with yours.

Today you need a Drivers License to get into Arlington. Buried my Father there pre-covid and my mother post-covid. Everything changed and not for the good.
I’m so sorry, annieoakley. May God bring us comfort as we contend with the new “normal”. It’s outrageous.
One now needs a “Real ID” to drive onto the grounds, even when one has a lifetime pass for family members whom are buried there :/
Note one can still park and walk in, going through the visitor’s screening area.

Thank you for your service BD
Thanks for reminding us of the staggering loss.
The Republican Senate GOP are in the process of cutting off their own noses this weekend led by losers and posers on their way out the door.
President Trump once again reveals the pols for who they are and what they really stand for and what they stand for is not you or I. Its a big Club (the US Senate) and we’re not in it.
Keep showing your uniparty colors Senators and don’t forget to show your pudgy war face Graham and Cruz.
President Trump is culling the herd and the Senators are crying the blues! Our glorious murder weapon of the RINO GOP!
In the earlier days of the last century Decoration Day was heard perhaps more often than Memorial Day.
“Decoration” because the graves of military personnel – and also deceased relatives and friends – would be decorated on that day.
That should explain the title of this:
American composer Charles Ives wrote a short symphonic poem called Decoration Day. well worth your 8 minutes of your time!
I still remember the peony day parade when I was a kid.
Though I can’t remember when or why they stopped.
Carl Higbie: Society doesn’t really appreciate sacrifice as we once did | Carl Higbie FRONTLINE
@FastSS02 – I can see the pain in Carl’s eyes from losing those friends. I wish people realized this isn’t a party day, it’s a day to remember those lost while serving our country. Veterans day and Memorial day are two completely different things. Veterans day should be a national holiday as well, not just some words on a day in November 11th. They served the country and made it home alive. Memorial day is for those that didn’t.
Newsmax should show that clip every hour today. Thank you for sharing it.
I’m a Vet. Sometimes on Memoirial Day I go somewhere that they ask Vets to stand on Meorimorial Day (often churches). I have never stood up for that. Memorial Day is for those that gave their life in service of the Country. No living Vet did that.
Exactly.
Amen Jake, this happened to me two days ago and I took the time to tell the padre that Memorial day is about just that, those who gave everything. Many have died when they return from the field of battle not from physical wounds but the mental wounds they bring back and never recover from. My uncle who was a Marine door gunner in Vietnam being one, my mother found him after being dead for an unknown amount of time in a attic in the summer heat. My good friend Bill who died in Mexico while I was staying with him who was an ex-special forces member, they both drank themselves to death because the guilt they carried could not be washed away. 🖖🏻
Washington’s birthday used to be a national holiday until it was changed to “Presidents Day’!!! I certainly don’t celebrate obama/biden/clinton/Bushes just Reagan and President Trump!!! Should have stayed as Washington’s Birthday! Just more of the slouching toward Gomorrah! JMO
I still remember when we celebrated Lincoln’s Birthday on February 12th and then Washington’s Birthday on February 22nd. In school, we spent most of the month of February learning about the lives and sacrifices of these two men, and how much they had done for our nation.
Then sometime in the 70s, I think, it was moved to the 3rd Monday of the month and it became one generic holiday to honor “all Presidents”…and to give everyone another three day weekend!
The U.S. Military is the only entity that it is acceptable to the left to be majority White –and that most soldiers who die are white. https://dcas.dmdc.osd.mil/dcas/assets/Documents/RACE-OMB-WC-2022.pdf

thank you, Sepp
Rioting Afro-American teenagers in Chicago were euphemistically called “young people” on the MSM (e.g. CBS ) this morning.
The few one-second glimpses of the “young people” showed that this was a riot by one ethnic group: the video seemed to be edited to show mainly the police.
So, where is MAObama these days, when “his city” is falling apart because of his past policies?
Maybe in his Hawaii mansion?
He’s in Kalorama, plotting the overthrow of this country.

President Trump on TS this morning (bolding is mine):
“The deal with Iran will either be a great and meaningful one, or there will be no deal. It will be the exact opposite of the JCPOA disaster negotiated by the failed Obama Administration, which was a direct and open path to a Nuclear Weapon for Iran. No, I don’t do deals like that! President DJT”
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116634668906719597
PDJT yesterday on TS (bolding is mine):
“I have informed my representatives not to rush into a deal in that time is on our side. The Blockade will remain in full force and effect until an agreement is reached, certified, and signed. Both sides must take their time and get it right. There can be no mistakes!”

A good example of the complacency and arrogance of the average American, go to another country and you will discover just how great our Constitution is and why we should defend it. 🇺🇲

That was excellent. Help millions of people see it and understand how precious our Constitution and rights are.
Enemies foreign and domestic! “The phrase “enemies foreign and domestic” originates from the Oath of Enlistment and Oath of Office in the United States, where service members and officials swear to support and defend the Constitution against all such enemies. Historically, this has referred to armed rebellion against the federal government, most notably demonstrated by President George Washington’s response to the Whiskey Rebellion in 1791, and later during the Civil War.”
Like illegal aliens domestic enemies of the left are accepted by our Federal LE! Everyone involved should lose their citizenship and be deported to a third world hellhole!!!
Not a fan of Nathan Rothschild, but there is ZERO evidence that he ever said that.
The sentiment could be true, but the quote is fake.

Thank you.
Amen. Unfortunately we can say this about everyone of the radical democrats being foisted upon the voters these days. Like, how the H did Mamdani ever get elected? Or the Mayor of Seattle? So many fit under the umbrella of this meme. It’s sad really that Americans either vote stupidly or have their elections stolen.
Keep releasing info like this and keep fighting for fair and honest elections. We can do this.
This should surprise no one. It’s simply one of several methods senators have devised over the years to avoid personal accountability and responsibility for their decisions.
How else would they consistently maintain an 80% reelection rate for incumbents? We are witnessing the U.S. version of a modern-day House of Lords.
The Senate is a waste of space. They are selfish cowards who hide behind fake rules to avoid any work. Pontificate and go on Vacations is just about the sum of a year’s work.
And dog parades. Let’s not forget soon to be Ex-Senator Thom Tillis’s dam dog parades.
I love dogs. Mine the most! They should not be on the Senate floor unless they are working dogs & the Senate is actually working.
The Senate is like some big Frat House . You cannot hate the Senate enough.
She’s like a Human Filibuster–an anti-Constitutional Device that could be easily removed, but functions as an excuse for Republicans to let their Uni-Partner Democrats destroy America.
We speak downfall, disgrace and defeat over all such wicked corruption in our government and decree America shall now be free, in Jesus’ Name, Amen!
Psalm 5
9
Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with malice.
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongues they tell lies.
10
Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you.
11
But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.
12
Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
Amen!
Amen and Amen!!!
Not sure why people feel the need to lie about sh!t online…. Harry Reid’s last year in the senate was 2015. He did not seek reelection for 2016 and died in 2021.
“Elizabeth MacDonough was not appointed in 2021; she was appointed as Senate Parliamentarian in 2012 by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democrat from Nevada. She is the first woman to hold the position and has served under both Democratic and Republican Senate majorities. “
Can’t argue with this!
Hey Bubby!
That would be 2012, not 2021, that she was appointed.
Seems to be a fine upstanding bureaucrat.

As I said before, the MSM have to invent phantom victories for the Democrat Party because it’s politically unfit for purpose. Just ask the simple question, where would the latter be if the former did its job? The symbiotic relationship that existed between the two is now reduced to a dependency, that has slowly but surely drained the media’s credibility.
It’s why the Mid-terms will be a battle between solid achievement and positive visions for the future and stale, exaggerated allegations, near-hysterical warnings of what a MAGA November will bring and victories that exist in the mind’s of their creator and desperate believers.
In other words, the exact tactics used by totalitarian states when they want to seize or maintain power.
The news out of Kiev on the Russian missile strike just doesn’t seem to carry the same weight publicity wise as the Ukrainian strike on the Russian school. Not even ‘The Kiev Independent’ can do much with the story. They’ve already announced 4 dead across all of Kiev and this includes a strike on a ‘residential building,’ which seems pretty odd for a ‘residential building’.
The Ukraine’s State Emergency Service has a few pictures of damage (which looks suspiciously like the ‘residential building’). And NATO, EU, and the usual suspects pretend not to know why the retaliatory strikes. 🤷🏻 ♂️

The propagandists and their backers want to claim a scalp in re: Tulsi. Sometimes the story is the story. I’m sure SD would clue us in otherwise. Don’t fall for their BS.
Prayers for her husband and their family through this journey.
The classical radio program hostess this morning briefly shared that her grandfather died in battle in Italy in 1944. She honored her father and brother for their military service, but gently pointed out the reason for Memorial Day. She has had several selections in a program for Memorial Day.
My uncle was killed, behind enemy lines, at the Arno River. Just days before he was part of the liberation of Rome. His last letter home was how humbled he was to have gotten to kiss the Pope’s ring.
I wish I had the inner calm to sing as cancer devoured me. I have a feeling @TulsiGabbard and her husband Abraham are set to teach us about a lot more than national security. How a family deals with cancer is a far more valuable lesson. Let’s all watch.

An extraordinary rebuke of Todd Blanche and his Justice Dept. Court dismisses indictment of Abrego Garcia (an exceedingly rare outcome in a criminal case). Finding of vindictive prosecution and “an abuse of prosecuting power.” The opinion name checks Blanche nearly 30 times.

So what happens when a federal judge lies in his own memorandum opinion?
This is from Judge Crenshaw’s order dismissing criminal indictment against Kilmar Abrego for vindictive/selective prosecution. Crenshaw repeatedly insists the “government” closed the 2022 TN traffic stop investigation into Abrego–that is false.
According to Crenshaw’s own timeline, HSI Baltimore had opened an investigation into the traffic stop in Dec 2022. There is no indication that case was ever investigated or closed.
Further, as DOJ noted in its response to Abrego’s motion, the matter was never referred to the US Attorney’s office.
Crenshaw’s misrepresentations constitute the basis of his argument Abrego was unfairly targeted by DOJ after he sued over his immigration status.
If only Goodman had done his homework…

On this somber day, Memorial Day, may we never forget the sacrifice of the very lives of over one million men and women since 1776 to keep America safe from foreign enemies.
I come from a strong family of military commitment.
This day lays deep on and in my heart~
As I have spent the weekend contemplating the sacrifice that so many have given in service to this country, my heart is especially heavy for those families of soldiers MIA.
Lord give them peace and closure. Amen.
Recently I’ve been coming across statements that MAGA and America First being two different political groups. They are a part of the same Save America movement. There is an operation to split up the base into smaller groups and then have them compete/fight against each other. Don’t fall for it.
I thought I posted my daily Sundance and dutchman posts last night. Will post again
Yes, I made a post earlier this morning that never showed…..not anything like it went into a black hole.
My phone started blowing up early this morning. I market for private RV resorts. Really beautiful parks near classic American tourist locations like Niagara Falls. 5 resorts, multiple states. In the 13 years of doing this job, never has there been a weekend where zero sales occurred at ANY resort. Well it just happened. Zero sales across the board. We’re a solid middle class business. This is the beginning of our high season. It is a terrible omen. Gas prices, high interest rates and economic fear is killing off our revenue. So now emergency meetings today to start cutting overhead. I’ll probably have to take a serious “haircut” to retain my clients and other folks will be losing their jobs. Because of our clientele, our business is a canary in the coal mine situation. Get ready for some seriously bad times. Looks like the middle class is going to be the Americans who are taking the brunt of President Trump’s policy’s. Just to add gas to the flame, many of these family owned resorts are being bought by Blackrock subsidiary companies. And the darkly funny thing is the neocons will abandon Trump if he doesn’t keep the war with Iran going. So no one wins. Everybody loses. Except Israel. Of course, the young men and women sent to die for Israel as well. This is a shitshow.
Gas prices are important when getting 10mpg for sure. But I dunno…..
One of our kids is taking her family on a summer long trip coast-to-coast, north-to-south in their travel trailer. They are staying at a mix of high end campgrounds ($150/night) and national parks ($40/night). They are finding many booked up or nearly so.
My recommendation, to my clients is obvious. Quit marketing to the middle class. Only target high end, ungodly expensive RV owners. $150 per night prices most of our clientele out of the market. We only require a $50, 000 household income to qualify. My other recommendation will be to increase household income by at least 50% because it’s a waste of money to market to anyone below that amount.
I’ve noticed Blackrock money targeting the RV industry for well over 10 years now. The freedom of the open road is incompatible with Agenda2030/2050. This is something I talk to other RV travelers when I can. No one believes me.
We’ve converted to LiOn battery bank and now do more dispersed camping in cooler climates. But… until people realize that the globalists have targeted everything about America that makes America great – eventually the slow and stead erosion of the globalist Agendas will gut this great nation from within.
Let’s not blame the “globalists” here. The globalists have been around forever, and I cannot remember things being **this** bad.
Deepen your understanding then.

Being on the inside, you are spot on. I can’t believe what I’m watching in real time. Try getting ahold of these voracious companies. Impossible. They outsource all their sub contractors to India. Illegals replace the onsite maintenance staff. They refuse to honor agreements with the current members once they take ownership.
I do not camp at campgrounds. I don’t like crowds, most people and rules plus I have 2 large dogs and so we bushcraft, wilderness camp or disperse camp. Where I live I’m close to national forest and hundreds of miles of dirt roads which helps a lot. When we plan a road trip, it is planned around the availability of dispersed camping.
A lot or our clientele are families with young children. They like the safety that these resorts afford them. They can allow their children to run free. It’s not 1970 anymore. Going to unsecured campgrounds is too dangerous for their little ones. At least that’s how they feel.
Do more sales, the more people that are too scared to get out and camp means that they wont ruin it for those that do by over crowding the limited resources.
Come on, work to become salesperson of the year. There’s a parking spot waiting for you.
Marketing and sales are two completely different jobs. I do marketing and I am superior at my job. You don’t last 13 years with the same clients unless you deliver every single day. There are no exceptions.
You do it better than everyone else…
Sorry, but your stories ring hollow. I don’t know of any families with kids making $50K/year that can afford RVs that cost 2x to 4x that…
We have a bunch of MAGA folks in our neighborhood, and a couple of those families are trying to sell their RVs, one for $65k and another for $72k. So that tracks with what you are currently experiencing.
It’s hard to feel any sorrow or guilt for folks feeling the pinch because this is the stuff they voted for – and they’ll likely continue voting for.
Have a great day!

You’re getting, what, a nickel a post?
ActBlue isn’t sending their best.
Hey Pickle, no balls – people are selling RVs every day for my entire life. It is far from uncommon and happens in all kinds of economic conditions for various reasons.
My experience here in S/W British Columbia is that “ up this way” we are seeing a significant number of Americans.
I have chatted Americans near our cottage on Vancouver Island with folks driving vehicles with Florida, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Ohio
plates.
While our gas prices are high at approximately $8.00 a gallon U.S. your dollar is worth approximately $1.30 ( Can)
An well located hotel $140.00 and campgrounds around $30.00 a night ( U.S.$)
I remember a time thirty plus years ago, when the Canadian $ was worth more than the U.S.A
Our middle and working class are too struggling. Folks with a bit of cash not so much so.
Cheers!
Where were you when AutoPen was ruling the roost and things were far, far worse than the temporary gas spike we are seeing now?
Hell, truth be told, prices still aren’t as high as they were then…

Best Memorial speech ever made:
Delivered at Gettysburg, Pa.
Nov. 19th 1863.
“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. “Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. “But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us,that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion, that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
A little history of California’s efforts to combat homelessness.
In 1936, Los Angeles Police Chief James E. Davis deployed officers to remote California border towns to stop poor Americans fleeing the Dust Bowl from entering the state.
This was 1936. The men doing the turning were Los Angeles police officers, dispatched two thousand miles from their city to stand at mountain passes and railroad sidings in places like Hornbrook, California — a dot of a town near the Oregon border where the Klamath and Cascade ranges fold into each other, and the wind comes down hard in February.
Their orders were explicit. Stop the poor from entering the state.

CANADA – This is the hate most Canadians have for Donald J. Trump and his policies. They have great esteem for the Carney guy. They believe the USA is headed in the wrong direction. This is a new level of stupidity.
The most recent poll:
https://abacusdata.ca/canadian-politics-carney-government-approval-hits-new-high-as-liberals-lead-conservatives-by-10/
Got to give them credit. I’m a witness to the Liberals and their bought and paid for media managing to convince so many Canadians that President Trump is responsible for ALL of their ills, even those that have been festering there for more than 20 years. Got crabgrass or warts? Blame Trump
Although there are still many not infected, TDS is at pandemic proportions here.
💯 🎯 right on NF.
There are only 3 topics of discussion on CBC Radio – Climate change apocalypse, MMIW2SLGBTQRSTUVWX+ victim-hood/rights, and Orange Man Bad. And all segments on the first 2 topics end up being President Trumps fault in the end, as well as the third one.
The half-hourly news headlines always lead with a TDS story, even the local stations. Today’s was that Trump (they never call him President) is risking the Iran agreement now because he’s stupidly trying to extend it into a complete Middle East peace agreement just to satisfy his ego.
A couple of weeks ago the day’s news lead was that Trump is only pursuing peace for Ukraine/Russia because he wants to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
The CBC TV pundits call him a “colicy baby” who has no idea what he’s doing. They say he’ll bend to anyone who strokes his ego. And they laugh at their catchphrase “TACO” – Trump Always Chickens Out – when they’re commenting on a deliberately extreme opening negotiating stance in one of his posts.
Because of course the one thing Trump knows nothing about is negotiating deals. 🤣 🤯 😡
The only thing that boggles my mind more than this constant stream of baseless Liberal-funded propaganda is that 99% of wealthy and supposedly well-educated boomers, and at least half of younger generations, swallow it hook line and sinker.
Canada is done for. Once USMCA ends, we’ll be a dust-bowl in a year with Carnage at the helm.
Hope I’m wrong…
