Praying for our wonderful Deplorable Patriot, and giving Gail a break, too.
Think of this as “DePat Light” – not quite the real thing, but definitely not woke!
Originally scheduled for Wednesday (see featured image), when Gail was doing her Part 2, this was moved to Thursday.

WARNING!!! GROOMER ALERT!!!
Speaking of Catturd getting swatted…..
Ah, the “usual suspects” must appear!
And, of course, the obligatory George Carlin:
Per the Boss:
Boss correcting now to “Oligarchs including but not limited to George Soros“.
And now for the obligatory message from our sponsors:
Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.
Fellow tree dweller, the late Wheatie, gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone
Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.
Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.
Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.
Auntie DePat’s requests:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.
The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.
Thank you so much for any and all attention to such details. It is GREATLY appreciated by more than one party here.
One other vital note:
Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. It won’t take long.
YEAH! READ THE RULES! Or just watch this video!

OK, we need some church after that Saturday night.

OK, after that church, I need some church!
Anybody got a good baptism story? Here’s the best one ever. In my occasionally humble opinion.
Matthew 3:13-17
The Baptism of Jesus
(Mark 1:9–11; Luke 3:21–22; John 1:29–34)13At that time Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. 14But John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?”
15“Let it be so now,” Jesus replied. “It is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness in this way.” Then John permitted Him.
16As soon as Jesus was baptized, He went up out of the water. Suddenly the heavens were opened,d and He sawe the Spirit of God descending like a dove and resting on Him. 17And a voice from heaven said, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased!”
This one’s good enough to run again, too!
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Nice Sopwith! That means it must be……Thursday.
Sopwith Camel…originally scheduled for Wednesday…hump day…
I think that might have been a Sopwith Theater Marquee….currently scheduled for Thursday….theater day…..
Lego is the best toy. I’ve spent soooo much money on Lego, and it was worth every penny, no regrets.
When I was a kid, we had Erector, Lincoln Logs, Lego, Tinkertoy…..
Sadly, I too am old enough where my parents never experienced the joy of stepping on Lego.
Ahh, but we Halsam “American Plastic Bricks”, which were flatter, maybe 1×2 inches rectangular, and equally painful… the early sets didn’t lock together, but the newer ones, e.g. 755, did. They had all manner of lintels. coping bricks, windows, roof elements, garage doors, etc. Lots of fun there, too…
And none of those sets with 100 useless (for the most part) 1×1 bricks 🙂
Oh, and I could build tunnels for my Lionel Train set…
Not forgetting the Kenner Girder/Panel/Highway sets… brilliant design and combination possibilities; the road sections were great (except the tabs would break off, eventually)….
Back in my day with Legos… There were no “Sets” with build instructions and “specialty” parts. Just a big ‘ol tub of various blocks. There were some “roof” sloped blocks… I used those roof blocks as the bow of a boat and built the boat upside down. Had to use our IMAGINATION back then. (Not just follow the “Instructions”….
Hmmmm.
Hi, razorback. Good to ‘hear’ from you.
Hello
Cartoon’s link says “Biden the Auctioneer”… could you imagine Biden, Fetterman, and Kamel-Hoe as real auctioneers…. 😀
Reminds me of the “fatberg” description I’ve heard of sewer residue in Detroit 🙁
A fatberg is a rock-like mass of waste matter in a sewer system formed by the combination of flushed non-biodegradable solids, such as wet wipes, and fat, oil, and grease (FOG) deposits. The handling of FOG waste and the buildup of its deposits is a long-standing problem in waste management, with “fatberg” being a more recent neologism.1 Fatbergs are a growing scourge infesting cities around the world, with some being more than 800 feet long and weighing more than four humpback whales. They can cause sewer systems to block up and even overflow, forcing governments and utilities companies to send workers down into the sewers armed with water hoses, vacuums, and scrapers with the unenviable task of prying them loose.0
And those are what you get “thanks” to low-flow faucets, toilets, etc.
Sewage systems, in particular mains, are designed with an anticipated flow rate in mind. If that flow rate is not met, the sewage starts to pack up like this.
We had the same thing up north in Hamburg (the perverted city which gave us Kanzler “I know nothink” Scholz) where the GangGreens had managed to get flow-reduction mandated everywhere…
The solution? The fire department(s) have to flush the lines every week or so to keep the flow going. In the end, it uses more water, energy, and money, that it did before the know-nothing GangGreens messed with it.
The law of unintended consequences, although in this case, I think it’s Aubergine’s law… The sewer designers had it right; it’s just the GangGreens that had the Ty-D-Bowl touch… everything they touch turns to $#!t….. 💩
Looks like Krispy Krisko Khristie found a new place to swim…. 😀
I don’t know what he’s referring to, but it must be important.
The type of financial statements businesses give to banks as part of loan documentation ALWAYS include a disclaimer not to rely on the fin stmts provided and that banks must do their own due diligence. It’s fairly boilerplate language and standard practice.
Thank you!
And … it is clear proof of malicious prosecution. DJT should have that lawsuit already drafted and ready to file.
It should also result in the prosecutor being disbarred.
We can hope! What about the judge?
Judges are attorneys first. Their licenses can be yanked [in some states like here in WA, no Bar license means no judgeship].
Yeppity-yep-yep – for sure!!!!!!!!!!
“The type of financial statements businesses give to banks as part of loan documentation ALWAYS include a disclaimer not to rely on the fin stmts provided and that banks must do their own due diligence.”
____________
One might think the banks — you know, the one’s smart enough to have all the money in the first place — would already know that, without, you know, needing a disclaimer… 😁
^^^ This.
I’ve seen and heard enough BS on this stuff to make me want to vomit.
Folks, I was on the other side of the desk for many years in all types of loan transactions, including business loans like PDT’s to a family of current billionaires and many other wealthy people. I lived this stuff.
This case is a bogus as there is. Federal and state regulations require specific things to be done with commercial/corporate loans to verify all aspects of each transaction. After all of the due diligence is done, which includes income tax verifications, lender property inspections (often times by contracted third party specialists) and legitimate appraisals in compliance with FIRREA – see link below for a sleeping aid – the loan request is presented through the FDIC regulated and audited loan approval process. This includes Board loan committee final approval. If the loan is a “participation” loan, which most large loans are, the loan request also gets reviewed by the officers of the participating lenders prior to closing.
https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-12/chapter-I/part-34
With loans of this type and size, after the loan is made with a detailed loan agreement with extensive covenants executed the lenders typically sell off a chunk of the loan to hedge funds and such through securitization methods. The lead lender retains servicing rights, which include continuing procurement of PDT/Companies’ financial statements, tax returns and a periodic reappraisal of the subject property to assure it remains in compliance with the loan agreement covenants relating to loan to market value, financial operations ratios, etc. The financial loan audits of examiners and internal lender auditors continue annually for as long as the loan is on the books. The capital requirements of lenders is impacted by the ratings of the respective audits, which also impacts the lender(s)’ profitability. Speculative commercial real estate loans have brought down many a bank – see the bank closures earlier this year for examples.
That PDT and companies have no loan defaults and paid back all loans on time as required while complying with the loan agreements is all the proof that is needed. The examiners are using fine tooth combs to detect trouble with the system on the brink. The loans were high grade.
There is virtually no way in Hades that PDT would get away with fabricating the worth of properties. The worth can change post closing up or down based on economic conditions, locational changes, condition of the property, etc. However, the value/worth always complied with the loan agreement or there would have been a condition of default triggered.
The judge and AG/staff should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and thrown under the prison. But they probably will not be because the NYC area is one of the most corrupt places on the planet. The District of Crims and New York Corrupts vie for the top spot IMO.
The whole thing is BS. It IS election interference. They are scared out of their minds to try stuff this stupid.
thanks for this tradebait!
👍
ThanQ for sharing that portion of your life. So many among us have no real idea what ‘due diligence’ entails and how the Big Money guys use it.
👍
“The whole thing is BS. It IS election interference. They are scared out of their minds to try stuff this stupid.”
^^^EXACTLY THIS.^^^
This smacks of a desperation that is unreal. What do these people think is going to happen if Trump wins?
I always have “international affairs” in the back of my mind, that they’re not just concerned about what happens here, but how it is all connected globally.
But the domestic concerns are YUGE. Their roles in voter fraud, bribes, and money laundering could be revealed and prosecuted. Likewise their knowledge of COVID and vaccine scams and the suffering and death caused by all of that. What I suspect would be the worst for any of them would be revelations that they were involved in human trafficking. Crimes against children bring people out with pitchforks, tar and feathers, and nooses.
All of which is why they would sooner nuke their own country, or cause America to be nuked by someone else, before any such revelations are credibly made.
Because they have nothing to lose.
It’s a very simple proposition.
If you take me out, I’m taking everyone with me.
‘Everyone’ is the hostages.
That’s us.
I think the children are a very large piece of the puzzle.
The DEMONRATS and the globalists HATE children.
They also want to steal their innocence, just like Satan is always looking for an out, to get Adam and Eve “back in the Garden”… the NewAgers and Satanists (but I repeat myself) actually want that…
(Joni Mitchell’s Lyrics)
I’m not certain that was the context or intent of Joni’s lyrics… but who knows anymore.
“This smacks of a desperation that is unreal. What do these people think is going to happen if Trump wins?”
_______________
They have already decided he won’t.
That’s why they’re doing these kinds of things, and they will do a lot worse, because there is nothing they won’t do to save their own necks.
And because they know that no matter how bad it looks, it doesn’t matter, because there is no one to physically stop them.
Then what do you suggest?
Thank you, TradeBait2 for explaining how loans of this type work and including a nice “sleeping aid” link, too! Your post makes great educational ammo against insufferable trolls, DAs, and prosecutors.

There’s a lot more about her behavior and the looting at the link.
I don’t keep up with the supposed injustices and am frankly bored with it. Does anyone know what the current issue is? Did I miss something major, like someone getting killed?
A cop was exonerated in criminal court. Charged with murder for whacking a kid.
Thanks.
is that what it was about?
thanks for that.
so instead of staging a sit in (showing my age) or a simple protest to draw attention to a perceived injustice, they steal and commit crimes?
tit for tat? is that it?
that’s gonna cause a rise in vigilante justice on the store owner’s part…
enter the Korean rooftop shooters.
I’ve seen this movie before.
The idea that “looting is an act of non-violent civil disobedience” only plays on the insane left, but it’s playing, because the left is insane – until THEIR house gets looted.
oh now that would be a movie script from before this woke crap…or maybe a new tv series…
Looting the Looters–a new crime series!
while the looters are out looting, the store owners break into the looters’ homes and steal BACK the looters’ ill gotten gains before they can be fenced…
hmmmmmm…I’d watch it.
Hey, I’d green-light that project! 😉
If it were against politicians, you could call it
The Pol-Looters,
and wind up the Greens at the same time…. 🙂
you NEED to be a writer for this!!
LOL
🙂
And, since a lot of electronic equipment was stolen, if it involved a certain, erm, dining and drinking establishment, it could be
“The Pol-Looters at H00TERS boosting computers”
(or something like that 🙂 )
gosh–you put Hooters in it, and you guarantee the redneck AND congressional tvs will give you high nielson ratings!
i did read, that apple activated the alarms on the stolen phones soon after they were stolen and the phones started producing LOUD non stoppable blares–they had to be ditched and broken to silence them…😂
Seriously???
What a brilliant idea.
A faraday bag would shut it off [but don’t tell the thugs].
yup…
FTA
First, just before 8 p.m., they broke into Foot Locker, police said, stealing clothes and other merchandise, before moving down Walnut Street. They gathered around the Apple Store and pried the front doors from the hands of security guards inside, video shows, before running in and fleeing with iPads, iPhones, and other electronics amid cheers.
The celebrations were short-lived. Soon after those who took them ran from the store, the devices were disabled and locked by Apple security, and a loud alarm blared from each phone’s speakers. People started smashing the electronics in the street and police recovered a “pile of iPads” abandoned nearby.

Not necessarily, if the instruction received is “keep on blasting, even if you lose contact with me.”
A seriously great idea for a ‘reality’ show.
AFAIK, during the entire riot, those Koreans never fired their weapons and their stores never got looted.
Proving that the mere display of a weapon often prevents crime.

He’s right!
We used to laugh at my neighbor when I was a kid, when he would cut his yard in shorts, black socks and white shoes… like some premonition of Randy Quaid in Christmas Vacation 😂
.
“He has not called me” just funny through and through 😂
That was quite awesome!
Tim is a funny guy. Most of us in east TN know him or about him. His logic meter is off the charts like Scott’s. He expresses it our hillbilly way at times.
He was an independent businessman before entering politics and was Knox County mayor at one time. Took Droll Duncan’s seat when he retired. Married a loon, divorced, remarried a good gal, adopted her daughter. Conservative Christian. One of us. Not always right, but always convinced. 🤣
Sweet. I’m guessing Chuckie Schmuckie didn’t vote. Probably was getting smashed at the Senate watering hole.
I get the impression that Chuckie was relieved to have it end like this. I think it got him out of a bind.

Imagine that on your resume. “I was singled out for a leadership commendation on our dress code policy. Vote for me.”
The lack of decorum was actually much more fitting for the clown show that is our gubermint.
I think they should all appear in the nude — and, every time they vote for spending more than revenues, those voting “for” should have a body part removed at a joint.
“It’s just a flesh wound”…
i honestly think this was a planned distraction. schmucky did it quickly. we were all predictably appalled and it was corrected just as quickly…
it was a “joe’s in hot water again” we need a distraction
AH – that could be!!!
They misunderestimate my ability (and many others here, you included) to pay attention.
It’s not just us here that they want to distract.
I’m sure it worked on a lot of people.

That’s very clever, to use your home address, for an international bribery scheme.
Pretty sneaky… 😂
That’s the same guy who left his laptop full of incriminating evidence at the repair shop. As one of his associates said, “dumb as a dog.” (No offense to dogs. They don’t have experience running an oil and gas company either.)
Wonder if it could be seized under various drug and fraud laws…
There’s a thought worthy of consideration …

Surely they can do better than just 700 pages?

Delightful 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼 Back when songs were MUSIC !!
I called the Fiancee for her “Wakey-wakey” moment two hours ago, and just got confirmation that she is at Heathrow.
I’ve pulled up her flight info in Brave. She’s flying a 787 this time…..I’m used to having a 747 on that flight. Hasn’t boarded yet, of course — I’m just setting things up so it’ll be ready when I get up tomorrow.
Flight Aware is a superb source of accurate flight information, for most any flight. Data typically lags real time by a few minutes, for security reasons.
It will give you nice insights on where the AC is, time remaining in flight, landed, taxi, at gate…
May be helpful as you align your arrival at SFO, parking…

I’ve used seatguru many times and would highly recommend.
Since she was on Virgin, I just tracked her flight on Virgin. That’s how I knew she took off 13 minutes late.
She’s home now.
Good News! Enjoy the reunion ❤
Johnny Cash impersonating Elvis:
OK, the hairdo thing reminded me of a favorite family story, which my dad tells Way better than I do. His dad, my grandpa (of Lefty “fame” in a previous post), was staying at our house as he slowly regained his strength in his early 80’s following a rough illness involving pneumonia. At one point he decided he needed a haircut & went to a local barber. The man did a passable job & then asked Grandpa to settle up for his work. “That’ll be Five Dollars!” (My dad always says this part like Fye Dollars) & Grandpa is like “Five Dollars??? I’ve never paid five dollars for a haircut in my life!”
Some discussion & back & forth ensues w/ the proprietor blaming the price on the union or something. Finally Grandpa has had enough & he is Not going to pay Five Dollars. “Not only am I not going to pay Five Dollars, but I think I can lick you. Not only that I think I can outrun you!” The Extremely pissed off barber finally agrees to a lesser fee (maybe it was $2 or $3) but tells Grandpa to never come to his shop again!
Every time my dad tells this story we end up cracking up. My grandpa had been so sick that he’d thought he’d never go back to his own home (the Cottage Up North) to live alone again (thankfully he was wrong). He’d had to slowly regain his strength, working up to walking even as far as the neighbor’s house–those are 40′ city lots. The fact that he was ready to either “lick” a guy or “outrun” him was a testament to his feisty fortitude even as an old man!
So in the spirit of story telling on feisty “old” relatives…here is a tale in my Aunt Pat’s own words. She is my dad’s only sister & daughter of Grandpa above. I guess the apple truly doesn’t fall far from the tree 😉 This is from 8-25-21
Hello Friends and Relatives:
At around 4 p.m. yesterday, August 25, 2021, a most bizarre event occurred on my front lawn and I just have to tell you about it.
In order to do so I have to begin on July 3, 2021, when I returned from grocery shopping and was turning into my driveway, there parked in my driveway was a white Honda and a little old gray haired lady was snipping off the coneflowers. bee balms and other flowers in my prairie yard. I parked behind her car, got out and told her to stop cutting my flowers. She told me that she thought no one lived here so it would be alright to steal my flowers. I informed her that I surly did live here. I asked who she though mowed the lawn, put up the little fence to keep the flowers from falling on the sidewalk, and indeed he had planted them and took care of them. She seemed to think that all the 100s of beautiful flowers in my yard just grew there because no one lived there and took care of them. So I lectured her about stealing people’s landscaping, etc. etc. I assured her that the house was not abandoned and that she was not welcome to ever come back and steal my flowers again. I may even have left her take them since they were already cut off.
Well, yesterday afternoon (temperature in high 90s and humidity also in high 90s) I went out to pick up the mail in my mail box and lo and behold, the same white Honda is parked across the street and little old gray haired lady is again snipping off my oxeye sunflower and wild senna. I was quite a little mad and upset that she had the audasity to come back and steal my flowers again. So I went up to her and told her to stop stealing my flowers. I had my arms full of papers and letters from the mail box, and I told her that she was stealing my flowers AGAIN and that she had to stop. I asked her to hand the flowers over to me, but she refused, holding them very tightly in her right hand along with the tiny scissors which folded up into about 1.5 to 2-inch long orange plastic container, and her car key.
So when she stubbornly refused to return my flowers, I grabbed her right wrist and tried to open her tightly closed fist. She, of course, fought back and we wrested for a moment and then I threw her down on the front lawn and flopped on top of her so i could use both hands to pry open her fist and get my flowers back. This is incredible, that she would come back, that she would not give me my flowers back and actually fight against me trying to take my flowers back. I couldn’t believe this was really happening. Well, I was talking to her most of the time about her bad habit of stealing flowers and warning her never, ever to come back again or I would call the police and get her arrested. Can you imagine two old gray haired “ladies” tumbling on the front lawn over a handful of wild flowers.
I was able to get her fist pried partly open and get a flower or two back plus I got her car key. She quickly snatched up the little orange plastic knife case so I didn’t get that or the rest of my flowers. She even accused me of taking advantage of a poor old woman and I laughed in her face saying I was probably poorer and older than she. She said she was 81, and i am in my 85th year. When I asked her name she said “Suzie Q” and she would NOT PROMISE NEVER TO STEAL MY FLOWERS AGAIN, or give me back the flowers she still had clenched in her hand. I must admit I was sweating a lot in the heat and humidity and hay fever to boot and i did have her car key so I let her up. When she realized that her key was gone, I told her it probably got lost when we were wrestling on the ground, so while she searched for it, I picked up my scattered mail and went into the house.
I returned with pencil and paper and copied down her car license number. I dangled her key in front of her, and again asked for my flowers back. She relucktently threw them on the ground (they were in pretty bad shape by then) so I gave her back her car key. Again she refused to promise to never come back to my yard again.
After she left and i went back inside, i did call the police to report the incident, she certainly seemed to be mentally off a bit to act the way she did and I expected that she might come back and do something more drastic to my flowers or house. It took me about 25 minutes to read back over my journal-diary to discover when I had first found her stealing flowers from my yard so I could tell the police the whole story. When i called them, i recognized officer Bobinski’s voice. He and I go back a long, long time. He took my two house break ins and jewelry thefts, He took in my two huge unlawful credit card bills in Chuck’s name after he had been dead 5 years or so, He took in my fradulent credit card purchases (there were 4 of those) so he knew me well. He was most concerned that I could have been injured in the melee, she did have scissors. He made me promise to call 9-11 next time, stay in the house, and avoid contact. which i agreed to do.
I never thought she would do what she did. I expected her to be ashamed and repent for being caught red-handed the second time and give me back my flowers. But I’m pretty tough and I taught myself Ju-Jitsu from a book (never with a person) back when I was in 6th grade. In fact i nearly killed Alice Ann Gains’s dad when I stayed over at her house one time. We were making popcorn and he was playing at trying to get some from us before we were ready to serve it. That was the first and last time I ever used my judo. He kicked his foot at us and quick as a wink a grabbed it and flipped him over backwards. He could have hit his head on the stairs or something else and been killed. It all happened so quick, I was so surprised how effortless it was for a 100 pound 15 or 16 year old girl to flip a big man (he must have weighed 200 pounds or so) over on his back and head. I was afraid ever to do it again because I was scared of really hurting someone or even killing them. Luckily he was fine (probably with a big bruise) and he took responsibility for causing the action, and Alice and I were friends through high school.
About 40 minutes later Officer Bobinski called me back. He told me that she lived in Boling Brook and he told her she was stealing and I had a right to protect my property. She again claimed the house was vacant and she had not believed me when I talked to her back in July. He told her she was never to come on my property again. But I’m not so sure that she will obey his words any more than she obeyed mine.
Ah, such is life when you live it differently from the rest of the world. I hope this story gives you all a big laugh. I still can’t believe It happened.
love and prayers,
Pat or Mom , or sister or friend
We still crack up about those two old ladies tussling it out on the ground!
Love it, great story 🌻🌻🌻
Yes indeed!
TY 🙂
“ I informed her that I surly did live here. “
Well she probably wasn’t living surly, until this bint showed up with her scissors.
Well my aunt’s place is pretty unique. She has a large yard of natural prairie plants that have to be burned off annually, supervised by the fire department. It probably looks overgrown & untamed from certain angles…
I just thought that surly for surely was a very apropos typo under the circumstances
True!
Couldn’t it be grazed by buffalo, instead?
Not likely in suburban Chicago! Plus the fires were/are a natural process, which as a botanist she probably is attempting to emulate…Maybe she could get some goats on her natural roof though? 😉
So, Valerie…..you wouldn’t, perchance, have keys to the blog laying around anywhere — would you?
What Exactly are you asking me here?
Obviously, you can comment — but can you do posts on this blog? I’m trying to remember who can and who can’t and I’m having trouble.
It doesn’t help that we have people who can comment and post at various other related blogs.
Yes I can write posts. My most recent was subbing in for Carl when he was still sick…

Over on the current page, Wolf is doing placeholders for next week because DePat is expected to be out, Gail is up to her earlobes in daycare visits, and Wolf is trying to keep the Huns from overrunning Ohio.
Might it be possible that you could author a post for one of the days he’s doing placeholders? You’ve been bringing the memes lately, so you probably have half a post already.
I replied to Wolf that I’m willing to take a day or 2 if he just tells me which ones…
I don’t have any posts “ready” & was really just dropping in a number of items that I found at Whatfinger to sort of supplement what Gail was doing…
Excellent, excellent…..
We have some days, so it shouldn’t be too much of a fire drill.
Well I want Wolf to confirm which days I’ll take first, just in case…
My advice would be to write a post first, then make it the next one.
I read from Ecclesiastes for my sister’s wedding. What were the readings from your wedding?
Oh, wait! You’ve married off kids — what were the readings for their weddings?
Wow, I don’t recall the readings, if we even had any. We did have the songs “Once in a Lifetime”, Theme from the Man From Snowy River, Pachelbel’s Canon in D, Handel’s Water Music, & Amy Grant’s “Say Once More” in the service though…
We watched part of the rehearsal & much of the wedding w/ our kids in 2022 for our 30th & they were freaked out about how young, pretty, & thin I was & how dark Michael’s hair was–he was prematurely gray & all the kids, now in their 20’s, all have Some grays that they wear like badges of honor. Like Indiana Jones said “It’s not the years, it’s the mileage”.
Hah!
Video of our goddaughter’s delivery got overwritten by a football game. Initially we all thought, “oh, there is some history lost…..” but I have since wondered about exactly when viewing it would have been appropriate…..
My dad was in the delivery room w/ the video camera for my first born. He was in the corner over my right shoulder w/ Zero crotch shots, thank you very much! Unfortunately the business end of the delivery bed/table was facing the door & at one time there was a male janitor sweeping the floor in my view. I’m like “Do you mind closing the door!” They say you lose all dignity & awareness but that wasn’t how it worked for me then 😉
I recorded over one of the Piston’s championship games w/ Reagan’s funeral & have never heard the end of it! For good reason!!!
I’m sorry I wasn’t more certain, but the last couple of weeks have been blurry.
You had to crack the whip on that Honey Do list while you had the space!
Yeah, she’s already told me that she hates everything. Then the jetlag got her and she’s asleep.
That’s a Heavy Sigh, my friend. I can so easily deflate my hubby w/ one mistimed critical word 🙁 🙁 🙁 Hopefully she’ll wake up Much Later & catch a clue & be thankful for all that YOU Do!!!
“German ambassador attended Canadian honoring of WWII Nazi – Berlin”
“Berlin has claimed that its diplomat was not aware that Yaroslav Hunka fought with the Waffen SS”
“However, when House Speaker Anthony Rota introduced his guest to the crowd, he noted that Hunka “fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians,” which by definition suggested that he served on the side of the fascist Axis powers. “He’s a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service,” the speaker said.”

From the very beginning, I’ve been telling people that NO GOOD comes from pussy-footing with NAZIS in any way. The Jews who think they can work with Nazis – typically Bolsheviks, socialists, whatever – are just leading everybody else into trouble.
Just because THESE Nazis hate Russians more than Jews – RIGHT NOW – that is NO reason to even think twice about “looking back at Sodom”. RUN from any and all Nazis!
Nazis can and will turn against anybody and everybody. It’s a SICKNESS – it’s a denial of every good that Western civilization has ever accomplished.
Oh, that Baby Castro! What a CLOWN! Such an idiot!
“From the very beginning, I’ve been telling people that NO GOOD comes from pussy-footing with NAZIS in any way.”

Same thing’s true about democrats.
“The Jews who think they can work with Nazis – typically Bolsheviks, socialists, whatever – are just leading everybody else into trouble.”

Any Jew who thinks he can work with Nazis ought to lose his Jew membership card.
It’s like a Christian (or Jew) who thinks he can work with Satan.
Amen!
I’m worried for our dear DePat…..
I wonder how she’s doing.
We’ll see!
Yeah, me too. Worrier that I am.
They used to understand phobias….
WEIRD.
Distraction, FTW.
“I can’t breathe”…..
Wonder if the artist(e) was a fellow named Kinsey…
Yup. Something very off with it.
Well … if we were on a first-name basis … maybe
And if her middle name was not farts-a-lot.
Didn’t realize a man had to strip naked, even down to his bare feet, for a shot back then.
Only when Nurse Dominatrix was on duty
I wonder if the doctors notice the influx of male patients, when Nurse Dominatrix is on duty 😲😁
My, what a big syringe you have.
It’s twice the size of her fist.
That’s a lotta vaccine.
Hey, how did she get him wrangled into that headlock to begin with?
Looks like a technique that is reserved for Nurse Hottie 😂
“BBC animal expert ‘raped puppies, tortured dogs’ ”
“These facts contain material that can only be described as grotesque and perverse acts of cruelty which is confronting and distressing and which in my assessment have the potential to cause nervous shock,” the judge said.
“Born and raised in the UK, the crocodile expert moved to Australia in the early 2000s and built a successful mainstream career, even co-producing a BBC series with famed nature broadcaster Sir David Attenborough. His next hearing is set for mid-December, when he is expected to be sentenced.”

Long since gave up reading MSM but thought I’d take a moment to check something.
Same story is reported in the Daily Fail, in much greater detail.
But not a single mention of the BBC.

Notice how there is crossover between all these evil fetishes – animal cruelty – child abuse – pedophilia – bestiality. Utterly demonic.
Next up, polyamory and necro-necro-necro love….
Absolutely horrifying. Demonic. Satanic. Evil beyond words.

Yep, it works! I did remove everything from the ? to the end.It is a great 13 second clip of Rep. Gaetz speaking in Congress: “We are devaluing American money so rapidly, that in America today, you can’t even bribe Democrat senators with cash alone. You need to bring gold bars, to get the job done, just so that the bribes hold value.”
I forgot to do the ? & beyond removal…good thing we’ve got each other’s backs!

I have a Deranged, Trump Hating Judge, who RAILROADED this FAKE CASE through a NYS Court at a speed never seen before, refusing to let it go to the Commercial Division, where it belongs, denying me everything, No Trial, No Jury. He made up this crazy “KILL TRUMP” decision, assigning insanely low values to properties, despite overwhelming evidence. AS AN EXAMPLE, HE VALUES THE MOST SPECTACULAR PROPERTY IN PALM BEACH, FLORIDA, MAR-A-LAGO, AT $18,000,000, WHEN IT IS WORTH POSSIBLY 100 TIMES THAT AMOUNT. His anger & hatred is politically motivated & unprecedented by those who watched! My actual Net Worth is MUCH GREATER than the number shown on the Financial Statements, a BIG SURPRISE to him & the Racist A.G., Letitia James, who campaigned for office on a get Trump Platform. While murderers roam the sidewalks of New York, my banks are happy, all loans are current, or paid off in full, sometimes early, with no defaults or problems of any kind. There is also an IRONCLAD DISCLAIMER CLAUSE!

In addition to the fact that my Net Worth is much greater than the number shown in the Financial Statements, there is a POWERFUL Disclaimer Clause (some call it a “non-reliance clause,” others a “buyer beware clause”), BOLDLY STATED on pages 1 & 2, explaining that there should be no reliance placed on these Financial Statements, but instead everyone should do their own independent research, analysis, and due diligence. This was fully accepted & acknowledged by the banks, but it didn’t matter because all loans were good, & there were no defaults or problems of any kind. The banks were represented by highly sophisticated attorneys, were paid full interest, & made money. There were no defaults or any other problems. This is a lawsuit that should never have been brought. It is a POLITICALLY MOTIVATED WITCH HUNT by a Racist Attorney General, and a Deranged, Trump Hating Judge. It is ELECTION INTERFERENCE at a level never seen before. No wonder people and companies are fleeing New York!
I love that he called that whore a racist.

Great.
🇺🇸 The US House of Representatives on Wednesday advanced a measure to cut Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s salary to $1, attaching the pay cut as an amendment to the lower chamber’s Defense Department appropriations bill.
House lawmakers agreed to the amendment by voice vote. The measure was brought by US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene.
“Secretary Austin has not fulfilled his job duties. As a matter of fact, he’s destroying our military,” Greene said during remarks in support of the amendment.
Greene pointed toward a decline in military recruitment, the withdrawal from Afghanistan and the Pentagon’s approach to the Ukraine conflict as reasons to reduce Austin’s salary.
Have no fear; the lobbyists are here … in D.C. They’ll cover the shortfall.
Cool – a mid-week Wolfie post – splashed with the Wolf’s own quirky sense of humor!
Sending love and prayers for our dear Deplorable Patriot and family as they endure this time of stress, sorrow, saying ‘we love you’ to their Mother and ‘good bye for now’.
Amen – and thanks!!! 💖

Biden Bombshell: President’s brother told FBI family tried to help Chinese firm buy US energy assets
https://justthenews.com/accountability/political-ethics/james-biden-confirmed-fbi-family-tried-help-chinese-firm-buy-us
“James Biden told the FBI in an interview last year about efforts by him and Hunter Biden to help the CEFC energy firm in China buy a liquid natural gas facility on Monkey Island off the coast of Louisiana, and that he personally met once with the company’s chairman, Ye Jianming, according to the FBI interview report released by the committee.
“James B noted (Hunter) portrayed CEFC to him as Chairman Ye was a protégé of President Xi,” FBI agents wrote in the report.
Upon the revelations, Georgia Republican Rep. Austin Scott deemed such activities treasonous, expressing that sentiment on the “John Solomon Reports” podcast on Wednesday.
“It just means it’s even worse than even I thought it was that they would go that far. If you look at some of those ports in Louisiana, and I don’t have a map in front of me, but like Port Fourchon, that area of Louisiana, just a tremendous portion of the energy that we use inside the United States come comes through those hubs,” he said.
“And the idea that you would help the Chinese acquire assets in that area to give, you know, an adversary… the ability to control the energy supply inside the United States… I don’t understand how much more of a traitor you could be than to do such a thing,” Scott added.

Oh, great. We already don’t have enough…
And GangGreen think we can have battery-powered planes… (and they’re experimenting with battery-powered trains to replace diesels where overhead wires are impractical/impossible)…
Seems logic and technical knowledge is unplowed ground to them…..
Yet everyone else in Europe is ratcheting up their atomic power generation capacity, and employing newer/safer/more efficient technologies…
Grrr…. Highest electricity rates in Europe set to become the highest in the world 😡 😡 😡 😡
Yes Germany has high electric bills unreal.
For the first time my daughter in CT has a less costly electric bill than I in OH.
“What the world is coming too”
the “new” illegals are pissing off the “old” illegals because they are willing to work for less $$…precisely WHY the “old” illegals were pissing off CITIZENS!!! what goes around, comes around…
FTA
The complaint of the longer-term illegal aliens is that the newly arriving illegal aliens will work for lower wages than the previously resident illegal aliens. This has forced a reduction in income for the old-timers. The point that neither group should be working at all under U.S. law seems to be irrelevant to both.
For many years, leftists have scoffed at the idea that illegal aliens are lowering the wages paid to American citizens and legal immigrants. We were told how much we benefited from this type of immigration. Anyone who has ever had a course in microeconomics is presented with supply/demand curves in the first week of class. The point is made that if the supply of any good or service increases at a rate greater than demand for the same, then price will decline. The experience of our long-term illegals has validated this reality. The fact that Americans and legal immigrants have suffered from reduced incomes is ignored by most media and progressive politicians.

JUST IN🚨: Hunter Biden signed off on a Burisma memo to the Ukrainian prosecutor who replaced Viktor Shokin that warned not to continue further investigations.
“Moreover it is imperative that allegations of criminal activity made to the media about Burisma and/or Nikolay Zlochevsky come to an end.”
Signed: Hunter Biden.
Via The House Ways and Means Committee:

Hi, everyone–Hi, Wolfmoon. Wanted to thank Gail for all her great info, so helpful. We’re in third day of a boil order after water-main break. Not fun. Prayers and all the best to Deplorable Patriot.

Greetings to you. Boil orders are no fun, for sure. Fingers crossed that today is the last one of that for you all.
One suspects that the situation with DePat’s mother is rapidly approaching critical mass. God be with them all.
Yes, may the Lord be with DPat and family. Thank the Lord, boil order is Over. Yay. I just found out within the hour.
