*Smuggler’s Cove cinnamon syrup: Put 2 cups of water in a saucepan. Add 3 halved 6-inch pieces of cinnamon stick to the water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Add 4 cups of granulated sugar and stir with a whisk (or an immersion blender) until dissolved, about 1 minute. The liquid should become clear such that you can see the bottom of the pot. Immediately remove from the heat. Cover and let sit at room temperature for 12 hours. Strain through cheesecloth into a bowl, and then use a funnel to pour into a lidded bottle or other sealable container. The syrup will keep, refrigerated, for several weeks. Makes 4 cups (32 ounces).

Badlands News Brief – August 24, 2023
So long as he’s dropping red pills, he’s on our side. Otherwise, still not voting for him.

Some thoughts, all cynical and sour, about the Republican debate
So, I sat through all two hours of the debate amongst the Republican primary candidates, although I was very irked by Larry Elder’s absence. Having said that, he didn’t miss much. It was like watching a junior high school debate, complete with the cool kids asking stupid questions and the geeks fighting on the stage. I hated every minute of it, thought it was embarrassing for all involved, and found it insulting to the American voters.

MATTHEW 22:34-40
34But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sad’ducees, they came together. 35And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, to test him. 36“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” 37And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38This is the great and first commandment. 39And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.”
SATIRE!
Have a good weekend!
Good stuff this week, DePat! I never knew I needed an armadillo, but after watching that vid over a hundred times, I am now convinced 😂
That was cute, wasn’t it.
As long as you don’t roll your socks up in a ball, you might not know where to find them and will keep blaming the dryer. 🤓😏😵💫
Down here folks call armadillos – armored possums!
At least they’re not armed opossums. We’d be in real trouble then.
^^^ This. And it was so obvious as it went on and on with childish expressions like you would hear on an elementary school’s playground.

It’s the same picture!
Had a rare day off work today and used it to drive to NC and see my folks, convinced my dad to get out of the house and get ice cream at one of his old hangouts, want to say how much I love the good people of NC. Anyway, my dad surprisingly recommended this Toby Keith song:
Don’t Let The Old Man In

Great message through and through. Good on ya , both.

This ranks right up there with her “high heels” comments. It’s too cutesy, and it’s an insult to men everywhere, especially PDJT in this context, who has done more than she could ever think about.
She keeps drawing attention to her gender when she should be talking about issues and how she would govern.
Weaker every day!
She’s a hatchet-faced knute.
When it happened I told Wifey she just had her deplorables moment. She agreed.
Stunningly stupid.
It’s sort of funny that the transvestite campaign with tons of drag queens, men athletes, etc..they’ve silenced women. Real women have allowed it by supporting the madness.
how to fight for your own extinction 101
Guessing Nikki married a, useless doormat. Her son equally useless.
That was my first thought, if you have a son or a husband, do you talk to him that way?
She just did.
Now imagine what a horrible, sexist, racist bigot she would be, if she had said the exact same thing about any of the protected classes, or if a man had said the same thing about women.
She would have been shouted out of the venue, forced to withdraw from the race, and her career would be over.
But she can hike up her skirt, bend over, spray her man-hating diarrhea all over men, and all is good.
That’s the Caste system in America.

Jack Posobiec: “Here’s what people don’t realize. The regime is now throwing every last thing they have at Trump. And his allies. Every last thing. It’s daunting. But if we prevail in the twilight struggle, America can and will be saved. All the forces of destruction will have left is their hiding places in the shadows. If they take Trump off the ballot, we are right back where we started. No other candidate would ever choose to enter let alone finish this fight”
_______________
I have no idea what Jack means.
What is a ‘twilight struggle’?
In order to ‘prevail’, we have to do something. Nobody will say what that ‘something’ is. If it’s passive, then we have to ‘endure’, not prevail.
If no one physically removes them, why would they go anywhere, including to hiding places in the shadows? And if someone does remove them, they’ll be going to trial, not to hiding places. So why would they go to hiding places, either way?
If they take Trump off the ballot and we’re right back where we started, that sounds like total defeat for us, and total victory for them.
So to recap:
In the semi-dark of evening, we either need to prevail or endure, but how is undetermined. We can use a lot of words to say where the forces of destruction will go, but they won’t actually have any reason to go anywhere unless we ‘prevail’, which hasn’t been explained.
Or they can just take Trump off the ballot, and we’re back where we started from, with Cabal in power.
Very motivational 👍😁
Wonder if Poso ever heard of, Write In vote.
I would guess they tried that in Stalin’s Soviet Union, but unfortunately, Stalin’s people counted the votes. Or didn’t count them, as the case may be.
That’s our election model now.
There was a party congress where there was a secret ballot to elect a new general secretary.
Stalin lost in fact, but covered it up.
Hardly anyone who voted in that congress survived very long. Some voted for Stalin, but he didn’t know who did, so all were suspect and all were subject to liquidation.
I’m guessing that was the first time.
A man with a plan.
No consideration for anything at all except victory, because victory is the only thing that mattered.
He did whatever was necessary to win, and he didn’t care how it looked, because appearances didn’t matter, if he was willing and able to kill anyone who questioned him.
It must have been after he was already in power that he said the infamous line about not caring who votes, but caring who counts the votes.
.
Wiki:
Stalin: General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union
In office 3 April, 1922 – 16 October, 1952
.
Oxford Essential Quotations (5 ed.)
I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this — who will count the votes, and how.
said in 1923; Boris Bazhanov The Memoirs of Stalin’s Former Secretary (1992); see Stoppard
I took him to mean that these are the last things the Left can find to throw at Trump (“every last thing”) and that this must be the twilight, or end of day, for their nefarious plans. In other words, hang in there, stay united in this fight, and keep supporting Trump.
I agree about write-in votes, but I’m not sure they would all get counted. If they took Trump off the ballot, I imagine it would be taken to SCOTUS. I’m not an expert, but I’m guessing that removing him from any ballots would be unconstitutional. Experts like Alan Dershowitz have said they can’t use a Fourteenth Amendment argument to do so. So Gavin Newsom can try, but it will end there.
He is emphasizing that there is no one else: “No other candidate would ever choose to enter let alone finish this fight.”
“I took him to mean that these are the last things the Left can find to throw at Trump (“every last thing”) and that this must be the twilight, or end of day, for their nefarious plans.”
_____________
Which is curious, considering there is still a year to go before the election, and based on all prior experience, it only gets worse and worse, right up to the day of election.
“I agree about write-in votes, but I’m not sure they would all get counted.”
_____________
I am absolutely, 100% sure, they wouldn’t be.
But that’s only because I know the enemy. Which is really easy to do.
I just ask myself, “What would I do, if I was the enemy?”.
Then I consider all of the available options, what is possible to do, if there was no restraint.
What could you do, if you had no consideration for anything at all (tradition, morality, law, precedent, Marquess of Queensberry, etc.) except victory, because victory is the only thing that matters?
And like clockwork, every time, the enemy does what I would do, if I was them.
It’s not rocket science. Just ask yourself “What would I do, if there were no rules, and losing was not an option?”
You would do whatever was necessary to win, and you wouldn’t care how it looked, because appearances don’t matter.
That’s what the enemy does. It’s not some new thing, it’s not ‘going for broke’ for them, it’s not like they’re nervous or panicking because they’ve never been so brazen or corrupt before… it’s just how they roll. It’s their routine.
That’s why they are so predictable.
spot on 😡
But think of it this way; it takes ALL of them together to come up with doing the thing that you thought of all by yourself.
Collectively they are smart, I guess, but individually they are stupid. Like this Fani character in Atlanta. I’d bet she’s as dumb as a post.
Posts everywhere are insulted by your comparison. 😂
Lol!
“If they took Trump off the ballot, I imagine it would be taken to SCOTUS.”
_____________
It’s lawfare. If they do it, it won’t happen until there isn’t enough time to fix it. They’re not just winging it. They look at the calendar, then they work backwards. They know the process, the appeals, which circuit courts and districts will be involved depending on where they do the dirty deed, what their chances are to get corrupt judges and how much dirt they have on judges who aren’t corrupt.
They prepare objections, appeals, motions to change venues, every delay tactic in the lawfare bag, and if all those aren’t enough, half the lawyers for the Cabal will have strokes and heart attacks on the same day, necessitating a delay. They don’t care if it’s obvious what they’re doing, that’s part of the point, to be obvious, to demoralize and humiliate the American People and the process.
So if they do it, if they do something to remove Trump from the ballot, why would they do it in such a way that the (not)Supreme Court could reverse it, or reverse it in time to provide adequate remedy?
You’re correct that they use all those tactics. I don’t know, and I could be wrong, but I suspect SCOTUS would step in to avoid a Constitutional crisis affecting our elections.
“He is emphasizing that there is no one else: “No other candidate would ever choose to enter let alone finish this fight.” ”
______________
No other (outsider) candidate would even be allowed to enter the fight. They’re still kicking themselves in the head with metal cleats for not destroying Trump before he got momentum. They won’t make that mistake again with any other new potential entrant.
Last time around (2016), Ben Carson was the only other legitimate candidate. Every other candidate (besides Trump and Carson) was participating as a tool of the Deep State.
This time there is no legitimate candidate besides Trump.
All of the other GOPe plants are trying out to be the next Traitor Romney, so they can fall apart like a cheap suit and hand the election to whichever puppet Hussein chooses for 2024.
The Daily Wire video on etiquette dances around the reasons for publicly unruly people, who choose to listen to the demons in this world; no amount of therapy, education or shaming stations outside of theatres can never replace the strength that comes from Gods’ salvation.
Amen 🙂 Welcome to the Q-Tree & God Bless 🙂

A coveted Charles I gold Triple Unite coin has been valued at £195,000. The inscription reads: ‘let God rise and let his enemies be scattered’
Psalm 68:1
Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.
Amen!
Quite a leap in minting technology between the two older coins (1492 and 1643), versus the 1839 coin, which looks modern by comparison.
Yes. I couldn’t make myself attempt to read the letters on the oldest coin…& the art work–yikes!
I can read unsi bar Henricus, and I think after Henricus might be a Roman numeral date. But I don’t know what “unsi bar” means.
Thank you for sharing that for I could make out those letters as you suggested, but it does scramble the brain a bit 🙂
I read a lot of old documents. Handwriting styles over the centuries have changed many times. Some of the 1600s English documents are almost impossible. One time I had a will from then, and all I needed to be able to read was the first name of one of the legatees. It took me TWO WEEKS to figure out it was HENRY!
Wow. I checked out a library book years ago on the various handwriting styles in the relatively modern ages. There were big national & regional differences too. I still have difficulties reading some stuff on American census records, even with multiple pages of comparative handwriting to assist in the deciphering…hmmm…
I have made something of a “career” of deciphering documents and censuses. I was once able to prove Revolutionary War service for an octogenarian ancestor by reading an entry on a census no one had ever been able to read. It’s tricky, but with practice it can be learned.
That’s most excellent!!! You are an incredible treasure to So Many people 🙂 🙂 🙂 I wish I had that skill but I’ve got a Long Ways to go 😉 😉
Thanks. Just keep working on it. I’ve been at this for a LONG time.
Well I’ve only been semi actively doing genealogy since roughly 2000, when I was using it as sort of an escape after my son’s second heart surgery, as I was looking for my mom’s birth family…
AND you are a Pro, me just a self-taught amateur 🙂
Lol! I am a self-taught amateur! Who would teach me? I just do it a lot, and learn something knew with every research project.
It certainly is the gift that keeps on giving & seems to touch on virtually Every other aspect of life, one way or another! <3
Sorry, centenarian. I under-aged him!
Even Better! <3 <3 <3
Up until 1836, acts of the British Parliament were not official until they were written out in “Chancery Hand” — a specific form of handwriting.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chancery_hand#English_chancery_hand
Yes, that’s the hard one! Awful!
Reading medieval legends takes a lot of practice. Compared to that Roman coinage has nicely legible legends.
Could you actually read the inscriptions on those coins? Glad you saw that stuff too 🙂

Interesting that Musk’s tweet w/ RealPOTUS’ “mugshot” is actually the fake one…if the Daily Mail can be believed…
The photo to the left is the original photo used in the fake Trump mug shot to the right
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12443719/Social-media-Donald-Trumps-mugshot-memes.html
Trump was wearing a solid red tie that day.
IMO, he looks very serious in that fake mugshot, but not nearly as fierce. 🦁
Agreed!
“Trump was wearing a solid red tie that day.”
___________
So then both photos are fake?
The ties are real; the charges are fake… 😡 😡 😡 😡
BQQM!
Both photos with the striped ties are fake. The one you posted here, that Trump himself posted, that says “Never surrender!” is the real one. The logo might or might not have been cut out of that pic, but it is the real one.
It’s very confusing the way they worded it.
The photo on the left is the original mug shot photo? With some random dude in the background?
I’ve never seen a mug shot with other people milling around in the background before.
And the photo on the right is a fake?
No neither of those photos was the actual mug shot. DP posted a Musk tweet that claimed the one where the guy behind Trump was digitally removed was DJT’s mug shot, but it’s another photo altogether was the actual mugshot.
Here is the one I posted last night, supposedly the one Trump posted himself in his first post on Twitter since he was banned:
Yes but I often see the Fulton County sheriff’s logo, iirc, in the upper left corner in some iterations…
The one Scott posted, that PDJT himself posted, is the real one. Either the logo didn’t show because it was cropped out, or PDJT’s people photoshopped it out, because I think his message focuses on his own fierce determination. Yes, he was booked, but IMO why would he want to highlight some sheriff’s department?
good points. Trump & his team leave little to nothing to accident 🙂

Verse of the Day for Friday, August 25, 2023
✟
“Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.”
Psalms 51:2 (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.

The Moving Mind
The award for the Run-on Sentence of the Year goes to …
It just a long sentence that is technically grammatically correct.
https://www.niu.edu/writingtutorial/punctuation/run-on-sentences.shtml
But breaking that long sentence up would have made it easier to read. “My, how he does run on…” 😅
Picky picky. Try taking a selfie video while reading that sentence out loud.
I think you’ll agree it’s as clumsy as can be.
Please don’t give awards for that here. My comments are a blob of thought stream, commas, dots, backward word placement, misspellings and improper verb tense.
I’d win them all !
I think he was referring to the sentence that was quoted. 😊
🤔
But … you’re so cute when you do that. 😆
hahaha.
Jacket weather has arrived here in Northern Michigan. The forecast low for Sunday night in my neighborhood is 43F, with highs for the next few days in the 60’s.
Frost on the pumpkins.
Send some of that south, will ya? It’s supposed to be 104 here today.
I would if I could. Hopefully a high pressure system will move in and veer cooler temperatures over your way.
Actually, I need to make an adjustment on the Sunday night temp. The forecast is for a weather station adjoining Lake Huron, which makes for warmer air temps this time of year. I’m about 20 miles inland where the low reading will more likely be in the mid 30’s.
A cold front is supposed to come through in the next day or so.
Michigan weather has been fairly strange this year. We were in Northern Michigan for the typical Summer holidays & had unseasonably hot, 90’s-ish, weather over Memorial Day & then less hot 80’s-ish stuff for the Fourth, & have No Idea what to expect for Labor Day. A few years back, when Up North for Labor Day, I swam across the lake (Otsego Lake) on September 1 w/ 3 of my kids because it was such a perfect day, which was atypical weather from my usual experiences for that holiday time…
Down here in Metro Detroit weather has been pretty erratic but lately it often cools down enough at night to allow for opening up the house for some fresh air ❤
Hubby finally admitted to me he hopes to retire to Northern Michigan…so we’ll see!
It isn’t all that uncommon in this area to get our first snow that sticks in the last half of September.
Wow! I honestly don’t recall when Winter started back when we lived in Gaylord, but the last year we were there they had 250″ of snow that Winter!
Generally near Halloween here.

Ramaswami was educated by a Soros Grant of 90K and I wish you and others would stop promoting him as the next great TRUMP. Ramaswami paid to have info of him removed from the net because he knew it wouldnt be good for him if it was exposed. REPORT THAT!

True, sharing info is what will help us AVOID voting for wrong people, but mistakes will still be made.
IT IS UNCLEAR HOW REPUBLICAN VOTERS WOULD REACT IF THEY KNEW….for example, that as recently as last year Ramaswamy was touting mask mandates and physical distancing as effective. In a January 2022 article for the Wall Street Journal, Ramaswamy claimed that such mandates prevent hospitalizations and deaths but should be discontinued anyway because of the “antigenic drift”.
Ramaswamy, A PHARMACEUTICAL EXECUTIVE HIMSELF, also declared that distribution of the mRNA vaccines was “the most important step in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic”. The statement was congruent with his suggestion that the unvaccinated were responsible for new COVID variants:.”

I’m seeing a lot of negatives about Vivek and am saving memes. The more this is shared, the better because people need to not be fooled again by someone planted into the political landscape who is a smooth talker who knows what to say to each audience.
I don’t find him appealing in any way. Besides all the red flags and negatives that are being uncovered, he is too young and inexperienced. He is not up to the task of doing what needs to be done and is completely out of his element. He would be run by someone else — whether RINOs, Dems, the Deep State, globalists, whoever. I don’t trust him.

from within the Geller piece
“But what do we mean by the American Revolution? Do we mean the American war? The Revolution was effected before the war commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments, of their duties and obligations … This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people was the real American Revolution.”
John Adams
Maybe so, but nothing actually changed until the British were physically removed from the country.
Seems, according to a lot of stuff Gail has shared, that the Brits never Really left 🙁
Rochambeau and the French finally showed up.
And the British could not afford ALL of their wars.
They needed to keep their rum, sugar and slave islands.
Something strange going on with that Elvis photograph. Pretty sure Elvis wasn’t 6’6″ tall…
It’s the hair. He was about 6′ tall.
I considered that, but I don’t think so… 😂
If you look at Frank’s photo next to him, the top of Frank’s eyes are at the 5′ line, while the bottom of Elvis’ eyes are at the 5′ line. If the eye is about 1″ diameter, that’s a two inch difference, between Frank and Elvis.
The top of Frank’s head is just above the 6′ line. Frank has a high forehead, and lots of hair above it, poofed up, at least as much poofed up hair as Elvis does, but the top of Frank’s head is barely past 6 feet, while the top of Elvis’ head is at 6’6″.
So there’s about a two inch difference in their eye height, but a six inch difference in overall height.
Try this.
Get a tape measure, and pull it out to six inches, and pinch the tape measure at the six inch mark with your thumb.
Now put the end of the tape measure on top of your head, and feel the distance between the top of your head and where your thumb is pinching the tape measure, moving your left hand up and down the distance of the tape measure.
Try to do it without laughing 😁
Six inches is a LOT of hair 😂

The Epoch Times
“CDC Says New COVID-19 Variant Could Cause Infections in Vaccinated People”
Yours Truly: This regards the “newest” COVID-19 “variant”, called BA.2.86 (also called “Pirola.”) Depending on what online dictionary one looks up, “pirola” translates to various meaning, including “oil of wintergreen”, “penis”, and “1082 Pirola”, an asteroid “from the outer regions of the asteroid belt.”
The British Medical Journal, among others, already is “sounding the alarm” about this newest “variant.” Interestingly enough, one of the scientists mentioned in the BMJ article cited below is Kristian Andersen, who worked at the NIAID in 2020, and who was one of the people who emailed Anthony Fauci regarding suspicions that the original Wuhan Hu1 virus (SARS-CoV-2, “COVID-19” virus) escaped from a lab leak from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Andersen later “came to the conclusion” that the virus came only from animal origin and became a proponent of the “proximal origin” theory of the virus. (Translation: Andersen likely “changed his tune” after Fauci read his first email and told him to “change the narrative, stat.”)
It appears, from the BMJ article, that there are dozens of mutations within the BA.2.86 “Pirola” COVID-19 “variant” — and these mutations are contained within the spike protein of the “variant.”

it says President Trump sold ( or transferred ownership) of Mar-a-lago to his ledest son on August 4th
FTA
Donald Trump has reportedly sold his signature Mar-a-Lago luxury residence in Florida, according to a Zillow listing which said the resort was purchased on August 4—weeks before the former president voluntarily turned himself in at Fulton County jail in Georgia, where he was booked on 13 felony counts.But a later report by The Express mentions that the former president might have not really “sold” the property, but simply transferred its ownership to an organization owned by his son Donald Trump Jr.
The listing, which is still available on Zillow’s website, shows that a 5,061-square-foot residence at 1100 S Ocean Boulevard in Palm Beach, Florida, was sold on Friday, August 4 for $422,000,000.
While the home is not listed by Zillow as “Mar-a-Lago,” the address corresponds to that of Trump’s Palm Beach residence, and so does its size, roughly. The listing also mentioned that the last time that the property was sold was on April 6, 1995—the exact same date when the former president turned the residence, which he purchased in 1985 for $2 million, into The Mar-a-Lago Club. At the time, Zillow said the property was acquired for $12,000,000.

Reply to Trump Truth
Retired Magistrate here: Legally it was the smart thing to do. Since the Georgia case is a RICO action, all of President Trump’s property could be taken. If memory serves me right, before he became President he divested himself of all of his other holdings; i.e., transferred to family members or business partners.
While what you say is accurate, Florida has a homestead law that prevents a person’s domicile being seized to satisfy judgments. It’s reputedly one of the strongest homestead laws in the country.
It’s why OJ Simpson made Florida his home. He is still living large while there’s a 33 million dollar judgment against him. Florida law is why.
even though Mar-a-lago is also a resort or golf course or hotel or whatever?
Doesn’t matter. The club portion is owned by a trust or a corp.

Jeff Clark:
State governments can resist federal tyranny.
Local governments can resist federal and state tyranny.
However, state governments cannot regulate the federal government.
And local subdivisions of state governments, even more so, cannot regulate the federal government.
We have reached a culmination of the unraveling of the American constitutional Republic when local subdivisions of one State’s government are allowed to tyrannize out-of-power federal officers.
The bottom of a wise governmental pyramidal structure is then fully inverted to become the pyramid’s contorted apex. Fully twisted. Fully diabolic.
For my entire career, I have fought for the preservation of what portions of the classic Constitution still remain. Fought against the erosion of the Constitution beginning in the Progressive Era, accelerating in the New Deal, and becoming normalized in the Post-Watergate Era.
Against this tide, I have fought to restore the classical Constitution our Framers gave us, as wisely improved by the Reconstruction Amendments.
And I’m not going to stop that fight now, whatever inversion, whatever destruction, and whatever anti-Republican forces come at me — or whatever such forces come at @realdonaldtrump — or whatever schemes come at my other fellow codefendants who will stand in solidarity as defenders of the Republic’s shards.
I will use my intellect, my world-class education from pre-woke-destroyed institutions, my energy, and — most importantly — my prayer to help defend all 19 defendants against this onslaught.
Count on it, Ms Willis and her collaborators. Count on it.

Texas schools scramble for armed guards under new mandate: Uvalde shooting triggers controversial security measures
I would think there are plenty of off duty police officers to fill the need. A little extra pay would be appreciated by a lot of them.
There you go again – letting the air out of another leftist balloon.
Not many may want the responsibly that would go with it. While employed as LEO they have some protective actions, not so much in retirement.
Could definitely turn into a no win situation quickly. Why many do their 20 and out now.
Off duty police are not usually retired officers but just either on vacation or on a different shift than school hours.
Same still applies, there not in an Official capacity then, just moonlighting.
There tactical training should make them the most capable personnel to fulfill the requirements of the job, at least theoretically.
Yes that’s true 👍
Our county has SROs (school resource officers) and they are with the Sheriff’s Department. They are Deputies, trained officers, who get to keep our kids safe. They also get to form positive bonds with the kids by being in and around them all the time at school.
And the Sheriff can deputize anyone.
We have a great Sheriff here and I like all the Deputies I’ve encountered too. They have to come when there’s accidents on the mountain sometimes by my house, which happens from time to time.
Same here. They are all academy trained and certified, regular law enforcement officers. Our area has done that for quite some time. All schools have at least one.
Finding those willing to be ‘first target’ might be tough. The armed guard is going to be the first target of a school shooter.
LE is already at that point. NOT a reason to NOT sign up.
If they wanna take retired farts, I’m game, so long as it doesn’t screw around with my SS.

Mr Gil just told me he is listening to a podcast of a youtuber who was present at the debate. Fox intentionally was muting boos and objections of the audience. What you did hear on tv is not representative of what actually happened.
Every single thing Christie said was booed to the point that the floors were shaking.
Every time PDJT was derided, obviously or not, the crowd objected and yelled at the moderators and at the candidates.
Fox is in no way impartial or a news channel, even during a presidential debate.
Do not even believe your ears when it comes to fox “news” at this point, if you haven’t already thrown them in the round file.

Only 6 years for people to get it together. Sell the house, choose where to relocate new job and for the untouchable criminal element…get the bootleg op ready. Will need refrigerated warehouses and electric bikes for deliveries.
I do hope the Liberals will talk it up since I doubt some of our urban brothers and sisters are aware of what is planned.
IMO this dystopian plan should be included in every single Trump rally. His mentioning it will get it splattered out to the general public.
Maybe others will choose making America great again rather than making America a giant guinea pig farm where you’re told what and how much is allowed to eat, where and when you can shop and drive…well forget about driving.

This devotion by Dr. Henry Morris really speaks to our time – especially in context with Romans 1:18-32
DELUSION FROM GOD
“And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.” (2 Thessalonians 2:11)
This is a startling declaration! Why would God want to deceive people and cause them to believe a lie? The “cause” that would activate such an extreme decision on God’s part must be very serious. The preceding verse states it plainly. It is “because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved” (2 Thessalonians 2:10). Because they “resist the truth” (2 Timothy 3:8), they will “believe the lie”!
The specific context refers to those who elect to follow the coming “man of sin,” but the principle is timeless. It tells us that God’s attitude toward men is determined by their love of the truth rather than by their knowledge of the truth. When people love God’s truth, there’s no limit to the amount of truth and blessing they may receive from God. Note the attitude of the writer of Psalm 119: “How sweet are thy words unto my taste!” “Thy testimonies…are the rejoicing of my heart.” “I love thy commandments above gold.” “Thy law is my delight” (Psalm 119:103, 111, 127, 174).
But when people begin to exhibit a disdain for God’s truth, there may soon come a time in their lives when they find it impossible even to comprehend the all-important truth of God’s saving gospel (creation, salvation, and reconciliation through Christ).
Because they refused the love of His truth when it would have been easy to believe, a blindness gradually engulfs their minds until they love the deceptive philosophies of the world, and they never escape the strong delusion that God has allowed to engulf them. Henceforth, though they are “ever learning,” they are “never able to come to the knowledge of the truth” (2 Timothy 3:7). How important it is, as early in life as possible, to receive from God His proffered gift of the love of His truth!

Frankly both pictures are fine by me.. and it invites more eyes.
Plus this… Red tie again.
Yep. Red Tie and Tales…
It gets more people looking and talking and spreading the word about what a sham the DEMONRATS are perpetrating…
So what’s the probability that PDJT changed his tie to cause confusion with the mug shot? I have no idea why he would.
DP – do you remember if there were height charts for the others? I didn’t notice.
a quick look on the internet has no height charts for sidney powell or rudy
🤔😮😏😎😁😉
None of them have height charts. Those charts are not required for booking photos.
https://www.findlaw.com/criminal/criminal-procedure/booking.html
These mug shots do not include any other information about the “suspects,” either.
Here is a series of booking photos from the Atlanta Police Department. No height charts, no info about their incident.

https://www.atlantapd.org/Home/Components/News/News/3927/17
Those booking pics were of domestic terrorists that attacked the cop training center.
Yes. My point was that they do not show height charts, and the photos don’t show what “tied them to the incident.” In other words, it is not a universal requirement that all mugshots have to show that information, so there is nothing suspicious about the mugshots of Trump and the others that should spark conspiracy theories. 😅
I had wondered what his mug shot would be like. As usual, he produced the perfect result. His fierce, “gangsta”-style pic is inspiring a lot of people.
Yes very much so. If yoy see this on tshirts if people you wouldnt expect, its reached everyone.

I remember my first exposure to Bollywood.
We were living in Davis, I was about 12, and my sister had a babysitter named Ratna. At one point, just to be sociable, we got invited to go see a movie with Ratna and her family.
It was full of action and violence and truly horrific situations — at which, the entire audience would bust out in joyful laughter. My reaction was, “what is wrong with these people?” It was explained to me that nothing lastingly bad could happen to the hero and heroine. Accordingly, the worse things got for them, the more enjoyable the inevitable escape.
