Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:
AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.
(I have no idea if this is real or Photoshop – we report – you decide!)
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And yes, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get through it!
As we were always assured by our Wheatie Warrior!
Take it from Trump!
And GRAB THE RAIL if it all gets too exciting!
Dedication
WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL
by Duchess01
Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know
That you had left us with armor in tow
We had no idea with what you dealt
We did not know the pain you felt
And now we can only imagine
With you what really did happen
Cause rarely did you complain
And/or share your personal pain
Of one thing we are most certain
You are flying high behind the curtain
Watching over us above the crowds
Our Warrior Angel above the clouds
Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us
While you were here among the fuss
We miss you dear you have no idea
Since time began in the pangaea
With you there was no time
In your wisdom you would chime
To clarify and magnify
The what where how and why
We did not question when you left
We were not slightly bereft
But over time we wondered why
You did not at least stop by
Now we know where you have gone
With the break of this new dawn
We could be angry but are not
Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot
Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear
Send us a sign that you are near
A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain
From your love do not refrain
God sends Angels to watch over us
And now we have an Angel Plus
A Warrior Angel of Magnificence
From today and forward hence

The Rules
TL;DR –
Wheatie’s Rules:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1
Now shortened.
Give them nothing.
Play smart. Every minute, the COUPISTS who stole the election – who lied – who deserve to be at the business end of the very same laws they are using so wrongly against the January Sixth defendants – are trying to set you up. Don’t be a chump. Turn everything back against THEM. Every day, every hour, every minute, every second.
LIKE SUNDANCE DID HERE.
AND HERE…..
Occam’s Razor – Fed Entrapment
YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..
For an updated version…..
And for a version that includes your having righteously defended yourself…..
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won TWO elections.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
Only one this time. Busy weekend.
Not sure whether I like this or hate it. You decide!
Damn. Can’t just leave on that one. Let’s have another!
OK – that’s enough. LOL.
Call To Battle
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
Oh, you gotta read the drama! LOL!
OMG! Le horreur, or however they say it.
No thank you, Witchin’ Regretmore!
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
I had to find out what “glory holes” are. I had clearly tried to unknow them already.
Good. Judges are an embodiment of the Constitution.
Even Obama judges!
Joe Biden didn’t win.
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:
litmus test
noun
- A test for chemical acidity or basicity using litmus paper.
- A test that uses a single indicator to prompt a decision.
- A simple test for the acidity or alkalinity of a substance, using litmus paper.
Use in politics:
In politics, a litmus test is a question asked of a potential candidate for high office, the answer to which would determine whether the nominating official would proceed with the appointment or nomination. The expression is a metaphor based on the litmus test in chemistry, in which one is able to test the general acidity of a substance, but not its exact pH. Those who must approve a nominee may also be said to apply a litmus test to determine whether the nominee will receive their vote. In these contexts, the phrase comes up most often with respect to nominations to the judiciary.
Lichen source of litmus (one of many):
Chemical structure of the color principle of litmus:
Classic litmus paper
Modern litmus paper

Have a great week!

^^^ That is NOT an easy OR quick task.
Perhaps some quickies.
I believe we have a larger task than attacking the individual files and silo’d problems.
We either need to blow this up or take our ball home and create a parallel society.
Sadly agree.
I think a parallel society, with the brain power of people in the MAGA movement would scare the living crap out of our enemies.
Think about this. If we were just to ignore the enemy, we could join forces to create BANKS, FOOD SOURCES, MAIN STREAM SOCIETIES, and the like.
Nothing more needed,
West Virginia and a few other states. Here we come. We all can make a sandwich and light a fire if need be.
It won’t be easy, and much of it would be better done quietly.
The question is, what can you make?
There are easy things — can you make bread? Can you make beer? Can you raise hens and get eggs [if they eat the bugs, you won’t have to]? You can slowly fade away from the WEF.
Eventually, however, you will get to the hard things. Can you make energy? Can you make engines? Can you make weapons?
Can you do all of these while some busybodies are insisting you can’t?
All of us can do something. The beauty is of being made in God’s vision.
I can make medicine from plants.
Making energy is easy with running water.
Is there a book or website you would recommend that can be a resource for those of us less knowledgeable in those arenas?
Need Aubergine on the meds, not sure.
But for most practical things – Back to Basics that Abigail Gehring compiled. Found my book at Tractor Supply.
Specifics on food would definitely be Putting Food By written by Greene, Hertzberg, and Vaughn.
TY TB!
Looks like they shared some of their info on this blog, that seems inactive now:
https://puttingfoodby.blogspot.com/
My favorite herbal is Bartram’s Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine by Thomas Bartram.
There are videos like this one all over about how to build a generator on a stream:
Thx much!
Here’s a link to the book, as much as Google will show, fyi
https://www.google.com/books/edition/Bartram_s_Encyclopedia_of_Herbal_Medicin/9LHABAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=Bartram%E2%80%99s+Encyclopedia+of+Herbal+Medicine&printsec=frontcover
Perhaps the difficult part would be getting the Feds to leave folk, alone.
Feds NOT regulate us. Nor infiltrate, sabotage the effort.
The answer. Replace the words “Masons Lodge”.
Figuratively speaking of course.
Montana is BIG. Lots of room.
“blow this up” figuratively speaking for the unconstitutional IC crims….
Exactly. Live and die by the Constitution and rule of law. Know it, defend it.
AND always temper it w/ Biblical foundational Truth!
Yes, thank you for adding that figuratively tag!
YW 😉
^^^ This. 100%.
From one of the tweets:
I wish we would own the term transphobic, as in, “You bet I’m transphobic. I’m very concerned about what is happening to our children and our society.”
I know that -phobic has to do with fear, and we’re not literally afraid of every guy who puts on a dress, but I’m tired of their making that term the end of every discussion. It’s like shouting “racist” if you point out that a person of color committed their 15th crime and was pointing a gun at the police when they got shot.
So yeah, if you want to call me transphobic, have at it.
I’m trance-phobic, for damned sure.
You have common sense and walk to your own drummer 🙂
So do I.
both you & Aubergine have incredible wisdom, experience, common sense & Hutzpah so all of your comments are spot on! 😍
Oh thank you dear lady you are not shabby yourself when it comes to wisdom 🙂
That’s sweet but I might need another decade or so to even come close to that 🙂
You underestimate yourself 🙂
OK perhaps Two Decades LOL
🙂
No one can make a person feel transphobic one can reject the labeling. No one is willing to date anyone male female or it. People date the person one likes to spent time with one has commonality with or is attracted too.
Parents need to be strong at this time and help to strengthen the backbone of their children.
They don’t go after the people who cheated in the election.
They’re going after the man who WON the election.
Won it BIGLY.
Historic LANDSLIDE win.
Stolen OPENLY, with not a single law enforcement agency or military agency lifting one finger to stop it.
Yes and with certain LE assistance in the stolen election.
Evil does not defend it only stands with itself.
That is why they allowed the stealing of election and no one was held accountable.
Daemons came together and are exposed to us. We know them and God knows them.
Eric Metaxas:
I don’t know that we can make definite conclusions, but this is *interesting*. For one thing, I can’t imagine the Dodgers players being able to fully focus with all that was going on. This is a very satisfying outcome.
Great news.
Ironic, too, that the SF Gay Area is the homo (as it were) of the various sexual perversions destroying our land… and also the homo base of the Satanic “Sisters”…..
Walter O’Malley is probably rolling in his grave…
The team has to be demoralized by what ownership is doing. How could they not, if they are sane?
Much like Talking heads on Pravda News…MLB players ARE Whores For $$$.
Prove me wrong.
I would venture to say that 60-70% of people in general are selling out in some way for money.
And there you have it.
“God’s mistake”…
Blame it on GOD. That’s what Satan always does…
God doesn’t make mistakes. Isn’t that what the gays always said?
True. Honestly, they do not have enough intelligence to know that their reasoning destroys itself.
That’s a fact!
They certainly don’t have enough honesty to know their reasoning destroys itself.
Amen
God does not make mistakes only human is imperfect. They are playing god and pay a hefty personal price.
Truth!
Epic truth!!!
And that is why men follow Allen West. He knows how to lead.
So very well said.
Good to see you around again Wolf! DP was about to send out the cavalry…
I like your second video better than the first, fwiw.
Every time I see this pic
I imagine Wheatie saying “further up & further in”, like in The Last Battle where the Narnian characters are invited to dive deeper into Paradise. Or perhaps “being called home by silver trumpets” to quote Boromir. Longing for Heaven…Blessings!
The first video made me think of a scenario that played out in Josiah’s hospitalization post-Liver Transplant, excerpted here:
The tremendous irony here is that by the time I got my BS I was so sick of science that I pretty much didn’t want to have anything to do with Med School, because I wanted to “have a life”, and didn’t relish the nearly decade of education and training required in Medicine. What ended up happening once Josiah came along is that I had a virtual medical degree without the paycheck and without “the life” i so selfishly craved in my relative youth.
So today I got to chime in on the rounds with details of both Josiahs Open Heart Surgeries, at staff requests, and was part of their discussions in the most minor of ways. It was a treat but didn’t leave any level of regret for my life choices. In fact the lovely young female doctor who was giving the verbal report to the remainder of the team pulled me aside to share how she envied what I had saying that she would be going home to her plant and someday she would be going home to her cat. She seemed wistful for what I have (that she saw then) loving and Godly parents, 2 amazing sons (she could see), and such a wonderful husband that there are no words to do justice to the caliber of man he is. No one looking at her and me with physical eyes only would think the one experiencing envy was her!
This was in my first post detailing my son’s Liver Transplant journey, from my perspective, when I was very new to Word Press blogging. It’s hard to believe that the end of next month will mark TEN Years since J was transplanted the summer before his junior year in high school. His tenth transplant anniversary will coincide To The Day to his 1st wedding anniversary, in God’s unique timing & perhaps sense of humor. Source of above quotation:

I suspect wolf is on assignment of sorts.
Today’s daily, in the can, for a couple days?
Yeah, I don’t see any reference to current events or the equivalent of a photo of a newspaper with today’s date on it.
The y/t vids are from 11 and 6 years ago.
I was looking at it, thinking of photoshopping “Wolf M00n” into the credits, and there’s this guy named “Peter Lupus”……isn’t Lupus Latin for “Wolf”?
perfect catch!
Peter Lupus was also in Police Squad in a pretty fun way. Where I have the video cued (I hope, around 4:20) is from an episode that cracks us up. One of the lines is “what about my little keister?” When Nordberg is sending off the sparks w/ the grinder well that scene & Brandon’s real world experiences as a new hydraulics tech at his old job got us nicknaming B “Brush Fire” 🙂
Love this. Love the catch, the show and loved The Prisoner with McGoohan!
The Prisoner was a great series, and the level of off-the-wall details was amazing.
Fabulous!!!! My favorite series! Yet, I am a Downton Abbey FAN!!!! And I LOVE all of the old StarTrek! Monk!
The Sting. Midnight Express.
Go figure.
Eclectic elasticity enraptures!
Oh…this is a real heart attack…Wages of Fear.
Watch THAT one! You will never come back from that.
I was recently trying to describe that film to The Fiancee, but I couldn’t remember the name…..unless there is a very similar one around.
Also called ‘The Salary of Fear’. Possibly the French title.
The Wages of Fear (French: Le Salaire de la peur) is a 1953 French thriller film directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot, starring Yves Montand, and based on the 1950 French novel Le Salaire de la peur (lit. “The Salary of Fear”) by Georges Arnaud. When an oil well owned by an American company catches fire, the company hires four European men, down on their luck, to drive two trucks over mountain dirt roads, loaded with nitroglycerine needed to extinguish the flames.
What started me on my description was a story from my grandfather. He was staying out on a farm with his uncles and they were clearing tree stumps — so they sent him into town to get some dynamite.
This was probably an old hand-cranked model-T truck, and gramps was too young to start it himself, so he had to just keep the engine running.
So he pulls up to the back dock of the store and goes in to make arrangements. Then he goes out and sits in the truck while they load it — they just dropped the dynamite in the back with a thump. Then they came around and very gently set a box of blasting caps next to him on the seat.
Valerie’s husband could probably tell us that they have a slightly different protocol today, with signs and licensed drivers and all that….
Oh, my.
Cthulhu. You will very much like this movie after knowing your grandfather’s predicament.
It wasn’t much of a predicament. The reason that Nobel made so much money off of dynamite is that it didn’t spontaneously go off like nitroglycerin. They could literally throw a crate of it into his truck with no worries.
Blasting caps, by contrast, were a bit more touchy.
Therefore, the dainty transfer!
You will definitely appreciate the nitroglycerin-phobia in this movie.
I was familiar enough with it to try to describe it to The Fiancee without remembering the name.
Pure suspense.
Just in case you ever find yourself in this unfortunate scenario: old dynamite, as in well-past it’s “best-by” date, like the kind you might find in a shed where you know it’s been sitting for 20 years…..
Old dynamite sweats nitroglycerin.
So if you find a box labeled “dynamite” in the back of your shed under a dusty stack of tools, do not move it yourself — call in the local bomb squad.
Pro-Tip #1 for tonight. Will heed!
The TV show Lost had a scene w/ characters raiding the Black Rock (!) ship of such sweating dynamite & having one of the very annoying characters blown to smithereens in the process.
You beat me to it!!!
That’s twice now, at least recently! Wonder if that improves my credibility around here…or Not LOL
Not once you realize who you’re beating… it’s not that impressive… 😂🤣😂
glad it’s not a real competition then…I’m just thankful I get to hang out with all the epic geniuses in Wolf’s Pack!!!
Me too!
😉 😉
That struck me as funny! 😂 You always to get rid of those characters.
It does tap into our baser natures to enjoy those types biting it badly 😉
Trivia.
Military K-9 explosive training kits.
Misc cool stuff, including, good old fashion, dynamite.
One end each dynamite stick, had a simple black marker line. Center to the edge. Radius.
Weekly requirement to turn the dynamite 90 degrees.
Log book in the storage magazine. Noting date and orientation. Noon. 3 O’clock…
AS you pointed out, nitroglycerin.
Did YOU actually Do this or just learn about it???
OK, this turned into a long one…
No, I did not actually turn the dynamite sticks. I knew about it, back in the day.
Late 80s, early 90s. I was the Department Head for the Ordnance Department, Yokosuka, JA.
Lotsa qualifications.
Depends on what folks were doing.
The type of ordnance (small arms ammo, bombs, torpedoes, missiles, prop charges, artillery shells, C-4, blasting caps, det cord, dyanmite).Handling, maintenance, loading, forklift operator, crane operator,,explosives driver, etc.Level of expertise required. Team Member, Individual, Team Leader, QA, Safety Observer.Yada, yada…26 US Navy and three Marines. One US civilian. ~40 Japanese civilians.
One of my most rewarding positions in my military years.
My entire career, every assignment, was working with explosives / ordnance.
No Wonder you are So Very Skilled at cutting through the crap to the bottom line—Ka-BQQM…literally!!!
TY for sharing this tidbit from your Fascinating journey! ❤ 😍 ❤
What was SOP if the last log entry was > 10 years prior?
Yes, dynamite, has a shelf life.
EOD would blow it before end of shelf life.
EOD incorporate into their training plan.
Worked well.
FWIW. The ONLY reason we had dynamite, was for the K-9s.
The military uses C-4, rather than dynamite, for operations.
We did not “stock” dynamite, as we would C-4, blasting caps…
This explains your explosive comments here.
Slow guy cees wut ya did there.
Lost: Season 1, episode 24 😁
.
The clip cuts off before the epic line of “you’ve got a little Arnst on ya there”…ewww…
Ooops. 😁
PS One of the best movies I have ever seen.
Hubby did get his Haz Mat certification…but then some buddies explored the uses of Tannarite, all in good fun of course! 😉
Hubby thinks that Explosives is actually a different endorsement than just Haz Mat 😉
So you’re saying that sending a 12-year-old in a truck he can’t turn off isn’t valid modern practice?
Only if it blows up. IMHO.
Depends how/when you define “modern”. My dad loves to tell how his dad, around age 12, drove his own father & uncle downtown in a car for their first driver’s licenses & the level of complaint about that governmental tyranny that Required licenses (which had never been necessary before) AND made people pay an exorbitant 10 cents for that “privilege”. My grandpa had apparently been driving cars & teams of horses for a couple years by then & this was In the City of Detroit, not the rural countryside.
I doubt he picked up explosives but given that his father was a lumberyard foreman anything Could be possible. He did help unload boxcars that brought materials to the lumberyard & could “easily” flip 50-100# bags of cement? higher than he stood, with one in each hand, though he may have been older than 12 when he did that!
I was flipping through an old Sears Catalog from around the turn of the 20th century & was marveling at the extreme losses of freedom we’ve suffered since our ancestors could order just about anything, including chemicals AND weapons from SR&Co…
Here’s a description from our regional library system:
1897 Sears Roebuck & Co. catalogueby Sears, Roebuck and Company
SummaryPublished from the reprint ed. of: New York, Chelsea House Publishers, 1968.
Imagine it’s the end of the nineteenth century, and, with one catalog, you can buy everything from beds and tools to clothing and opium. (Yes, opium.) Not to mention ear trumpets, horse buggies, and Bibles. The 1897 Sears, Roebuck & Co. Catalogue is both a wonderfully fascinating collector’s item and a valuable piece of American history. For every recognizable item included, there are plenty of others guaranteed to confuse or interest 21st century readers–like Bust Cream or Food and Sweet Spirits of Nitre. What was once standard household fare is today a sometimes strange, often funny look at what life was once like for the average American family. It’s amazing to see that a Princely Shirt for Princely Men cost $0.95 or three for $2.75 or that a Complete Violin Outfit (with bow and case) cost only $2.00.
I have one (maybe not precisely the same year) that I inherited from my grandfather (no, not original).
Did you know that Sears sold houses?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sears_Modern_Homes
Yes & I think there are some groups that attempt to document the Sears houses that are still standing. I’ve seen the house pattern books back when I used to check out floor plan tomes to attempt to “design” our/my dream home 🙂
My grandfather had three or four of them, one of them I basically rebuilt (plumbing, wiring, porch, jacking up and levelling the house, replacing paneling and adding insulation, etc. Southern yellow pine from the 1910s (!) burned through a few saws, even though they were the worm-gear kind)…
And those houses are still there…
That’s amazing & true American ingenuity! What a priceless personal history you’ve got there!!!
Even when I was in my teens, you could get Sears specialty catalogs.
One of my favorites was the farm catalog. You could get Sears chicks.
It should be noted that one of the startups where the Fiancee worked, one of the founders ordered mail-order chicks every spring.
https://www.knowyourchickens.com/buy-chickens-online/
so fascinating.
My mom’s mom used to have us mark in a Sears or JC Penney catalog things we might like for Christmas but those were the regular clothes & toys ones. Never saw the specialty ones nor had I heard of them 🙂
I watched Wages of Fear (1953) a few years ago, the Criterion Collection blu-ray, and really liked it 👍
The movie Sorcerer (1977, staring Roy Scheider, directed by William Friedken), is an unusually good remake.
Excellent! Never knew about Sorcerer. Will look for it.
We need to look into Both of these! Thanks for the tip 🙂
And then there was “The Haunting” (1963), a very scary horror movie… 💀 🤖 👻
PS I have been to Portmeirion Village. Just as in the series.
https://portmeirion.wales/
Lucky you! I haven’t made it out there yet.
I keep thinking that I should divide my “forever home” in NC into a variety of vistas — Casa de Cthulhu, Chateau du Cthulhu, Cthulhu Manor, and — of course — Coothmeirion.
Coothmeirion is most excellent.
Oh, ‘The Wages of Fear’…Yves Montand and nitroglycerin. Explosive movie!!!
A Boom with a View 🙂
LOL!
The director, Henri-Georges Clouzot (1907-1977), has at least several more classics:
Quai des Orfèvres, a.k.a. Headquarters (1947)
“When the sleazy movie financier who has been pursuing nightclub performer Jenny Lamour turns up dead, her jealous husband is the prime suspect in Inspector Antoine’s investigation for the Quai des Orfèvres, France’s Scotland Yard.”
.
Diabolique (1955, starring Simone Signoret)
“A sadistic headmaster’s frail wife and his scheming mistress plot to kill him.”
.
La Verite (1960, starring Brigitte Bardot)
“Beautiful, troubled Dominique Marceau came to bohemian Paris to escape the suffocation of provincial life, only to wind up in a courtroom, accused of a terrible crime: the murder of her lover. As the trial commences and the lawyers begin tangling over Dominique’s fate, the film delves into her past, reconstructing her struggle to find a foothold in the city. What emerges is a nuanced portrait of an impulsive young woman misunderstood and mistreated by those around her, and of her ultimately tragic affair with an up-and-coming conductor.”
.
I have all three (and Wages of Fear), but I have only seen Wages of Fear and Diabolique so far.
Diabolique was excellent 😁
Loved Diabolique!
That looks like a Magritte.
It does, doesn’t it…
Could be. He did say that he had had a very busy weekend. Hopefully he was getting a chance to enjoy himself, celebrate his fatherhood, & not have to fight non-stop tooth & “claw” for our ongoing freedoms!
Yup. You guessed correctly! Got back safe and sound. Got some awesome first-hand intel from deep in the blue beast.
Always good seeing ya post.
Intel from, deep in the blue beast. << Thanks for taking one for the team. 🙂
Looking forward to the intel, when you have time to share.
Ditto!!!
litmus (n.)
very interesting–thx
YW! Prompted by Wolf’s lead.
gotta follow the Leader of the Pack! 😉
Hydrangea flowers will similarly bloom blue or pink depending on soil pH….
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrangea
Our neighbors’ plant looked very similar. I was hoping to get a start from that plant, loving All those colors, but when they sold their home the new owners slashed & burned all their lovely landscaping & that beautiful plant died an ignominious death before we could rescue it 🙁
Oh, my word.
Hydrangeas grow fairly fast. We had a neighbor who pulled out six cycad palms he had planted about a dozen years earlier because they were encroaching on the pathway he wanted them to flank. He probably bought them for about $100 each when they were maybe eight years old. If he could have pulled them out into pots, they would probably each have been $300 specimens.
What a sad waste 🙁
We had to move one of our transplanted from Up North lilac bushes because we’d planted it too close to the neighbor’s house. Fortunately it took fine to a second transplanting & is now reaching higher than our second story windows!
I planted lilacs here in one of the early rounds of gardening. They do not thrive locally because the climate isn’t challenging enough.
I have three lilac bushes. Two on the side yard, transplanted. They have thrived. One in its original place. It ‘died’ last year…drought.
This year came back but needs help. Needs an assistant for me and it. Interviewed someone today who might be of assistance as a gardener.
God willing. I do not have the knowledge to correct this on my own.
I’ve heard that lilacs can be cut back significantly & then rebound with massive amounts of blooms the following year. We haven’t tested this theory yet.
I suspect that letting it leaf out and cutting all the deadwood is all that is needed.
perhaps but I was told they could be cut back to within a couple feet from the ground & really bounce back. We might experiment on some of the bushes at home &/or Up North to see what happens…
Inches tall works! Almost flat!
Wow, it sounds like we can hardly mess it up if we do give it a shot! Thx for the tip.
So glad you’re back to posting again!!! Looking forward to whatever level of a report on your adventures that you can share, when you get a chance 🙂
They are massively all over Mackinac Island so clearly can handle a very hearty Northern Michigan winter.
The ones at my parents’ Cottage are older than I am, as are ones near my great-grandparents old place. But the ones we transplanted downstate are Way taller than those older bushes from Up North. It could be the heartier Winter or the sandy soil conditions up there or something else.
Given so Many varieties of lilac it’s surprising there isn’t one that could handle your climate.
We don’t have Crape/Crepe? Myrtle in Michigan but I surely enjoyed those blooms back when living in Oklahoma…
All I know is that mine died pretty quickly. The garden just overgrew the poor soul. That was it.
Your cycad, or your hydrangea?

Fascinating!
Good up date from Andy Biggs on new information they are fighting FIB for.
Other witness’s against Biden along with more SARS reports forthcoming. Starts at 36’s mark after the Dumb and Dumber comedy routine brought to you by Democrats that cheat. 😮😏😁
https://rumble.com/v2v1d3u-andy-biggs-more-1023-documents-coming-in.html
Impeach Wray and others, FIB may decide to play fair.
Until then, it’s all charades.
Rhetorical. What are the odds, the republicans will impeach BiteMe.
FIB will never play fair. CIA has it by the throat.
Agree.
Which is why I keep imploring impeach.
Republicans get knocked silly by, rope a dope…endlessly. Never learn.
James Woods scores again.
Odd as hell to me. Barr is going after Trump, seemingly daily.
Wonder if Barr is getting compensated by Rhonda’s behind the scenes supporters.
Vicious thread. They’ll see Barr drawn and quartered tonight if possible 😁
The list of crimes is oh sooo long! 😮😬🫣 😏Our kind of people 😆
That is insane & evil! 😡
Bondo Barr did have that kind of energy when he arranged that all the government agents skated for the horror at Ruby Ridge.
People forget that. They need to.be reminded daily.
Sensless. Barr must have something truly criminal to be this shrill.
Like I find others who are too shrill against President Trump for anything other than really egregious crimes.
Real POTUS in replies!
Nice statement by Trump.

Sponge Bob, Square Pants.
Bill Barr, Square Head. Or should it be, Block Head. 
seems like another job for AND logic 😉
As far as Your Truly is concerned, Bill Barr has forever tarnished the immense and distinguished history and practice of bag piping.
This is aside from showing the world who he really is.
Somebody’s got Barr on tape raping a kid or something.
Change my mind.
Your use of rudeness on our enemies knows no bounds!
No limits!
Truth has NO limits.
AND, piss on PC
Yep!
heartbreaking tale, but at least they are fighting back against the insane system…

It occurs to me that we have always been under a feudal reign. The United States of America had only a few years. And then it died. Franklin was more ‘right’ than we know.
The United States of America…the “Constitutional Republic” was gone in a few years.
1871?
Anyone?
The Civil War did major damage to the original scheme.
Agree. An orchestrated event planned for years in advance.
They tried it with Jackson. His reply:
That President Jackson had a known and well-documented personal body count gave such an admonition a special weight, I’m sure.
Good ol’ Lincoln. Another sketchy president.
That would be about right in my book. WSB. I have been consistent in stating 150 years or so.
This is disturbing & very detailed w/ many images. Thankfully the comments indicate that most in the UK are not on board with this type of sexual indoctrination of children!

There was a time, NOT very long ago, when parents would have burned the school down and quite possibly hung any teachers involved.
I have no idea what has happened to that world.
Political correctness has been used as a weapon to keep people silent and passive.
It hasn’t worked on a lot of us, but unfortunately too many have succumbed and need to turn back around. That’s one reason why I say call me transphobic. I don’t care. We have to push back and also go on the offensive.
h/t Marica’s
This is patently ridiculous
We know Biden will want eleven out of the ten guns, and that afterwards you should have 12 guns (two of them needing to go to the range for the first time).
😉 😉
fascinating tale…

Just checked the Liberty Daily website. Looks like everything has gotten back to normal.
Good to know. Thanks.
I actually deleted it yesterday. Too many issues here. They do have some excellent links.
After return to states, I’ll have it again.
Verse of the Day for Monday, June 19, 2023
✟
“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;”
1 Timothy 2:5 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.
BE MY VOICE
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
Thank you for these.
Thank You, Wolf, for keeping Wheatie’s memory in our hearts !!!
God Bless You Real Good !!! ❤️❤️❤️
UH-OH…
Getting to be that time of year.
Nice seeing ya. 
Hope things are going well for Sally you and X. (Not prying. Jus good wishes.)
There you are. Hope all is going well for you and yours.
From the above tweet:
“Speaker McCarthy’s office has produced to me a significant portion of video that does not compromise Capitol security”
In another words, we’ve kept the offending CS identity safe from investigation.
Yup. Guilty Feds Will be protected.
Still wanna know who the third trusted person is. In my mind, it BEST be Trump.

“Genetic Modification Proof as Strand of Truth Emerges”
Yours Truly: It appears that both the Pfizer-BioNTech and the Moderna mRNA-based COVID-19 “vaccines” do indeed:
Contain plasmids and plasmid contamination levels;
That mRNA technology is considered by the FDA to be gene therapy;
That the mechanisms of the COVID-19 “vaccines” alter the DNA of the recipient.
Interesting how they delay the inevitable release of truth that we called out on here three years ago. Well, not really interesting. Predictable.
I remember the response of a former liberal friend to my statement of the jabs being DNA altering gene therapy. She is highly educated (Doctorate level) retired nursing department manager for a major medical center and university esteemed in the region’s elites’ circles with regard to her academic excellence.
She became angry in a phone call when I said that I wish they would refrain from calling them vaccines as they were not, that there were gene therapies. I pointed out that the CDC had changed the definition of a vaccine to meet the current rollout and that DNA was changed with the injections, that they had no idea what would happen with their human lab rat experiment. She hung up and I have not heard from her since.
Oh well…
To add to this tale of the sleeping beauty waking up…

Dr. McKernan found the “loose” DNA in vials of BOTH the “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccines” AND in vials of the original (“monovalent”) COVID-19 “vaccines” — in other words, in BNT162b2, mRNA-1273 (the original COVID-19 “vaccines”) AND the “Bivalent COVID-19 Vaccines.”
IMO, the work by Dr. McKernan confirms the hypothesis of the “De Marinis” paper of February, 2022. The “De Marinis” paper demonstrated that the spike protein of BNT162b2 DOES enter the LINE1 human liver cell line AND changes that cell line’s DNA.
The “De Marinis” paper is found here (it was peer-reviewed):
https://doi.org/10.3390/cimb44030073
And here:
http://www.mdpi.com/1467-3045/44/3/73
“Intracellular Reverse Transcription of Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine BNT162b2 In Vitro in Human Liver Cell Line”
Wonder if this well educated nurse has come out of the closet, now admitting Injections are NOT vaccines, DO alter DNA, Do harm, handicap and kill.
Yea, likely not. ^^^ Too many inconvenient truths to acknowledge.
Such a very sad state of affairs…so sorry 🙁
Frank Luntz Needs to Retire
Overrated political pollster Frank Luntz admitted last week that he was wrong to prematurely dismiss a Trump comeback. “Not only can Donald Trump win the GOP primary again, but he can also win the presidency again,” Luntz tweeted.

What a luntz!
Frank musta had a spat with Kevin.
This woman is a joke! Not a funny one either.
