MacGregor: “We’re tired of all this Republican Democrat nonsense because the truth is that it doesn’t matter who you vote for, you get the same damn policies. We have in Washington this thing we call the Uniparty. The Uniparty is owned by various lobbies some of those are corporate some of those are foreign. Some of them are pharmaceuticals. Found a way to essentially buy up politicians. We know that. That has to go away. I think it will as a result of where we are headed financially. We’ve got to return to a very simple formulation. Faith, family, country. What we’ve seen with this government we have is a systematic attempt to destroy the family… Stop the interventions. We want to restore the rule of law. We seemed to have lost our intestinal fortitude. Our guts. Our courage to do what is necessary to protect our society. We’ve got to close our borders. We can’t afford them. These things have to happen. We absolutely must halt the sexualization of our children. An appeal across party lines. There are lots of good people who can agree about these things. We need to come together and we need to go after these people in Washington. We need to force this agenda onto Washington. Get out of this terrible pit of despair that we are currently wandering in.”

He’s been posting lots for the last two days:
I took a break from the psyops for the weekend. I sat back and observed from a distance while emotions settled.
Here’s what I see: There is a massive propaganda campaign by Israel and their Western partners, seeking to garner public support for all out war in the Middle East.
The Israeli government are running YouTube ads, Twitter/X ads, CBS roundtables with the Five Eyes Intel leaders, promoting Israel funding during football games. They are advertising war like a company would promote a product or an event. The American People are being targeted via PSYOP.
At first I thought the propaganda was for public and political support to secure funding for Israel like we do to Ukraine, but this appears to be more severe.
Israel appear like they want to drag the US directly into the conflict in the Middle East, because if they invade Gaza, and Hezzbollah gets involved, then Iran gets involved, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt… It’s gonna be a shitshow, thus Israel want the US to fight the conflict for them. Which is why I believe the American People are being so heavily targeted with pro-Israeli war propaganda.
US involvement would significantly benefit the Biden regime as well. More war, more chaos, more opportunities to launder money to their deep state partners, more avenues of revenue for the war machine, immediate whitewash of the massive failure in Ukraine, etc.
If the status quo remains, Trump is going to win 2024.
WW3 might be their only option and they are running out of time.
This appears to be a prelude to war.

Heh. I used to live about a half mile up the road from this place…..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Master's_University
If you continue to head up Placerita Canyon Road, you’d pass https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movie_ranch#Monogram_Ranch/Melody_Ranch, then you’d get to where my cousin, the plumber, lives, and then you’d get to where I used to live.
My uncle (also a plumber) once lived in the old Melody Ranch ranch house (he rented). Every year, the fire department would come around and nag you about mowing brush away from structures — something like 50 feet. Unfortunately, the bottom of the hill was about 35 feet from the garage, so my uncle took the lawnmower and shoved it along the hillside to get that last 15 feet.
This tilted the lawnmower so much that gas actually glorped out of the top of the gas tank and ran down over the mower’s exhaust manifold, where it soon caught fire. The resulting blaze was extinguished after only about 15 acres had burned — but the flames were all moving away from the house and started 40+ feet from any structures…..
I only realized at the end of that video that it’s a real place not something they made up for the video.
I had the advantage of having driven past it daily about 40 years ago.
Incidentally, I may have mentioned seeing an old school bus painted purple with astrological signs painted on the sides where they’d normally have the school district — that was on the same stretch of road.

People might disagree with me, but I find her actions to be both appalling and criminal. She mentions “taking this building,” that a window needs to be broken, and that if they break a certain glass (a window, I guess) it would give them access to a room below. What did she think she was doing?
That said, a six-year sentence seems excessive. But her actions don’t compare to those who were escorted in by the police and who were just walking around in the Capitol. She was inciting something.
Will you look at that?
Just LOOK at that.
That first window looks broken in two different places, and the one next to it appears to be broken, too.
Can I be the only one wondering how she can even be allowed to live?
In releated news, six years in federal prison is six years longer than black people and islamic people get for armed robbery, rape, arson or murder.
Where did she get the tool holding in her hands? Did they not go through security? This cannot be hidden.
There was no “security” outside of the capitol building. I literally walked from the Trump rally to the building, and once the police let people in, there was no impediment, I could have walked on in without going through any sort of security (but I did not). If she was able to get onto the outside balcony (as many hundreds did) she could bash in those windows.
They should have had security. She came to do harm therefore Trump did not entice her she came with the idea.
This!
This gal was definitely not there to rally, cheer, and hear speeches, like the 99.9% of us who walked over from the Ellipse.
I have to wonder if she really was a “Trump supporter”.
I do not think she was a Trump supporter.Trump supporters did not come to fight.
The picture looks staged and posed. There appears to be security on the right and masked bandit on the left.
A grouping of fake MAGA breaching the building to get real MAGA in deep doo doo…
^^^^This. And unfortunately, a lot of people are susceptible to being led.
After being lied to non-stop by “trusted” sources 😡 😳 😡
Notice that she has a pink pussy hat. THOSE were all over the place at the Trump inauguration in 2016, and they were only worn by people who OPPOSED Trump.
I think she’s not a Trump supporter at all.
I don’t think that’s Exactly a pussy hat for they seemed to be knit in a way that made it appear that there were sort of 2 ears, like a cat, so play on the word pussy…other than that Yup!
lots of versions here:
https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=pussy+hat&qs=n&form=QBILPG&sp=-1&lq=0&pq=pussy+hat&sc=10-9&cvid=94C013EB0EAE439189C87BB1633BF156&ghsh=0&ghacc=0&first=1
You’re spot on.
That’s just an ordinary pink knitted cap.
Oh, it’s obviously not one of the strictly defined pussy hats – that’s too obvious. But at the inauguration and at the protests, MANY of the women and girls were not wearing “regulation” pussy hats. It was a color code.
yeah and after the pussy hat junk I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing a pink knitted hat…I got principles and stuff !!!! 😄 Really, I love a knitted hat but they ruined pink hats forever
I tell you – I see a pink knit hat on a girl, she goes straight to “LIBTARD until proven otherwise!” 😉
OK TY 🙂
She looks more like a pussy hat code pinker than a MAGA woman.
MAGA women do not carry ice pick axes to rallies! They carry flags, Trump signs, Bibles and copies of the US Constitution!
Minor details. Don’t worry about such things.
Very good point GA/FL. Her intent was to break that window for access ?!?! Not one of them could even get through that window.
that’s an excellent point Molly–no one could get thru that tiny window—WHY break it in the first place?
Hmmm and the other observation about the pick ax thing…a female Trump supporter with that ? Seems very weird, that’s antifa style .
all good points…but now you have me wondering why she even chose THAT window. there is nothing to be gained by breaking it, so that’s not her objective…leading me to believe the anitfa/provocateur angle even more
Listen to her…She’s already been in and knows the layout well enough to directthem to “take the building” ??? Way suspect..
Probably a relative of Poligrip Pavement Princess Mafiosi Piglosi d’Alessandro Gambino…

Bingo a plant?
Absolutely. Those hats were all the rage among Trump-haters (millions of them) in 2016. IMO she was RECRUITED from the pussy cult, likely because she had a clean record on her Demmunist leftism.
But that isn’t a pussy hat.
See Valerie’s comment.
They didn’t all wear the regulation pussy hats. Many of them just wore assorted pink knit caps exactly like that one.
And nobody is going to wear one of those “true” pussy hats into a sea of MAGA and risk raising suspicions.
I called them all pussy hats. And still do.
“Trump supporter sentenced to 6 years in federal prison for breaking the window and using her bullhorn to give instructions to others.”
_________
When it was first revealed that she broke a window, all the other criminals on the Group W bench moved away from her.
But when she told them she was also using her bullhorn to instruct others, they all moved back, shook her hand, and they had a great time on the bench, talkin about crime, mother stabbing, father raping, all kinds of groovy things that they was talking about on the bench.
Maybe someone should tack on a charge of Littering…

JUST IN: Donald Trump is mounting what appears to be the heart of his effort to derail the election-subversion case against him in Washington, D.C., filing three motions tonight to dismiss the case:1) On constitutional grounds
2) On legal grounds
3) For selective prosecution
Trump’s filings boil down to a few points:
1) The charges criminalize his constitutional right to petition govt
2) The charges fail as a matter of law (he didn’t use “trickery” against govt, he didn’t act “corruptly” to obstruct Congress)
3) The Senate acquitted him already.
He also wants at least an inquiry on “selective” prosecution, citing reporting on Biden’s views/comments about the case.
Prosecutors will have a chance to respond to these motions in the next few weeks.

I remember the posters that came out of that play/call, DePat. It’s a shame it happened to him because Denkinger was actually a good ump and person. What a way for him to be remembered. That can’t happen, but it did. With replay today it is moot. Such a shame.
I was conflicted in that series back then as I had been a Cards fan for years, but had golfed with Larry Gura and met a bunch of the Royals team during spring training a couple of years before that WS.
Yesterday someone, I think Molly, directed us to the CTH open thread for Israel updates by someone apparently over there. While scrolling about I noticed that Duchess was Interacting there beyond what she usually posts here. So if anyone here still has commenting privileges at CTH that might be the best way to attempt to interact directly w/ Duchess, fyi…
If she doesn’t respond to replies here, what makes you think she will respond to replies over there?
She posts multiple times each day. Yes, it’s the same stuff over and over again, but she does post.
I was speculating that she is perhaps not using the notifier to reply to anyone who replies directly to her but she was, at least as I saw yesterday at CTH, interacting w/ those who replied to her there on that open thread…
I really wasn’t trying to stir the pot & am glad that she has a place where she chooses to interface with others to some degree. I remain thankful for what she shares here as she reminds us to look up & retain hope 🙂
I know where you’re coming from Valerie.
I would want to know if I offended someone and would want to make amends even if it was done unintentionally.
and the fact the she is responding there and not here suggests something is amiss here…imo.
Yes & at Marica’s too where she had been Very Actively commenting…
I thought that “our” “derivative” sister blogs to CTH are better & also more intense than what CTH seems to have become. It could be that interfacing on CTH is like a bit of R & R from the more intense fray while still interfacing with Patriots & Believers.
If there is a breach, & that seems pretty likely, as a Christian it would be important to have reconciliation to whatever degree is possible. But that is at least a two-way process, depending on how many “offending” parties are involved, assuming offence is the issue…
Though the Bible admonishes us to not let the sun go down on our wrath it seems the management of painful interactions might be less straightforward. In my own life when the pain is deep the resolution & restoration of relationship (if it’s even possible) can be much more protracted because I rarely have sufficient emotional energy to sustain the reconciliation process as it can get bogged down in stickiness…
I guess as Duchess daily reminds us to pray for one another we need to remember to lift her in prayer as well ❤
Maybe there’s no breach at all and she wants to share uplifting comments . Chit chatting at several places might be more than she wants. Everybody has places they prefer to blab at but I don’t feel slighted if this isn’t hers.
That’s also possible. It’s just when she departed Marica’s it was sudden & abrupt w/out explanation (my impression) & she had been sort of like the spiritual mother hen there. The daily prayer had included phrasing like praying for “Duchess who watches over us all”. She had been managing a pretty lengthy prayer daily there too as well as regularly posting Christian encouragements beyond what she typically shared here at the Q-Tree (like from Oswald Chambers “My Utmost for His Highest”, iirc). I think PAVACA/CV/RDS took over the daily prayer at Marica’s…
Exactly,
I switched from NoNAIS to WUWT to ChiefIO and Tony Heller’s and then when Trump ran in 2015/6 I commented on TCTH and finally ended up here.
Tastes and interests change over time.
Why not just ask her why she ain’t here beyond her regular posts?
I’ve replied to her directly a few times w/ no response. As far as I know I’m still banned at CTH so can’t interface there. I “liked” a couple of her comments at CTH but I (& possibly everybody?) show up as a guest…
Going to the source is the best resort for sure 🙂
I don’t think she has a beef with me but if she does I’d love to (try to) clear the air 🙂
Well, … we would expect nothing less from you simply because you’re a high-class person. 😎
I didn’t see you as stirring a pot…I just couldn’t understand your reasoning.
Thanks for the explanation.
YW I thought there were people that had no idea where Duchess was beyond her typical daily commenting here so when I saw some interactions there I wanted to pass it along in case it eased anyone’s mind. Seeing her give replies to others made me smile at least 🙂
I think it’s safe to say that although she doesn’t want to completely disconnect from here, she doesn’t feel very comfortable.
That seems a reasonable assessment–TY 🙄
That said, there’s a decent chance she does have a beef with me.
LOL that atheism thing perhaps? 😉 😉
Sorry not to make light of things if that’s painful or difficult for you…
🙄 😇 🤔
Well given she’s posted the “prayer” to Michael the archangel at CTH, she might be Catholic…as a Protestant there’s no way that I think praying to angels or “saints” or anyone other than God (Father, Son, &/or Holy Spirit) is scripturally authorized…
iirc, you’ve stepped on other Catholic’s toes before…
It was nothing to do with religion.
OK 🙂
I haven’t done nearly so much Catholic toe-mashing (specifically) as others here have done. In fact, I don’t honestly recall having done anything specific enough to offend *only* Catholics.
LOL I try to stay out of the divisive stuff unless it’s Really out there too. I guess I was “alluding” to presumed challenges w/ one particular prolific author who may be inclined to scroll past both our comments (& Scott’s) like avoiding porn or something 😉 😉
Duchess knows where we are, and Wolf is certainly welcoming. While infrequent, Duchess posts beyond her dailies. I’m grateful Duchess remembers us, daily.
Amen 🙂

I am 78. I first heard this about a year ago and the tears flowed. I vowed to avoid hearing it again as it was so powerful and upsetting. Then I saw the YouTube video before this which explained it’s origins and decided to see your reaction. I started crying after the third line and 20 minutes later I have not stopped! Thank you for your reaction. I am glad I watched. I think perhaps I NEEDED to “hurt myself today to see if I still feel”. The emotional “hurt” of the song makes me appreciate what I have more. Thank you Johnny and Tent.

Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails called it an “unbelievably powerful piece of work.”
“I pop the video in, and wow… Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps… Wow,” Reznor said. “[I felt like] I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn’t mine anymore… It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning — different, but every bit as pure.”
The power of Music is WHY it was targeted by the Cabal. Even Country music is targeted. Think Bill Ivey a buddy of Podesta and Hilary.

Let’s give a bunch of uneducated, low to moderate intelligence political parasites access to unlimited taxpayer money with absolutely no accountability. I see no flaw in this plan.
Meanwhile Habeck, Lauterbach, Baerbock, and Waffle-faced Faeser (from over here) are saying, “Hold our Bud (Dud) Lites”…..
Typical Orwellian Gubmint Narcissists: command from “on high” and ignore the ones who actually understand how things work and what’s going on…

jenna ellis pleads guilty and accepts a plea deal
FTA
The slew of recent plea deals in Atlanta District Attorney Fani Willis’ racketeering case signals a growing threat to Trump, who is fighting criminal charges in four separate cases as he runs for president in 2024.
Ellis, 38, pleaded guilty in Fulton County Superior Court to one count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings. The charge related to false claims of voter fraud that were made to members of the Georgia Senate at a hearing in early December 2020.
In a tearful statement before Judge Scott McAfee, Ellis expressed regret for her actions in the wake of Trump’s loss to President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
“As an attorney who is also a Christian, I take my responsibilities as a lawyer very seriously and I endeavor to be a person of sound moral and ethical character in all of my dealings,” Ellis said.
“I believed that challenging the results on behalf of President Trump should be pursued in a just and legal way,” she said, but “I failed to do my due diligence.”
Instead, she said she relied on information that was provided to her by other lawyers “with many more years of experience.”
“If I knew then what I know now, I would have declined to represent Donald Trump in these post-election challenges,” she said.
“I look back on this whole experience with deep remorse.”
Ellis originally faced two felony charges in Willis’ indictment, which accuses Trump and 18 co-defendants of illegally conspiring to overturn Biden’s victory in Georgia’s 2020 contest.
The 98-page, 41-count indictment alleges Ellis urged state legislators in key swing states Biden won to appoint presidential electors who would vote for Trump.
Ellis will avoid prison time as part of her plea agreement. She was sentenced to five years of probation and must pay $5,000 in restitution, in addition to completing 100 hours of community service and penning an apology letter to the people of Georgia.

I have trouble with her. To me she does not seem a truth teller more of a wussy I think. Do not like her would not have her of a friend.
Bingo. If not before, it surely showed when Mara Lago was raided.
Yup unnerving times.
YSM/MCM scare media (CNBC)…
There’s probably a tactic or plan involved here, are the principals are trading felonies down to misdemeanors… Felonies would lose them their law licenses…
Can’t wait to find out if they retained their right to appeal.
no sauce–and not sure what it means…emmer wins first ballot? so he had the most votes…but not enough to be the nominee?
https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2023/10/24/congress/emmer-wins-first-speaker-ballot-00123166
He sounds worse than McCarthy. The traitor R’s again prove that they don’t care about the people who put them in office.
i hate the secret ballot stuff!!
Exactly. Star chambers, secret ballots, political prosecutions, the gulag, govt produced coup, crooked fraudulent elections…we’re not still sliding down the slope. We’re at the bottom.
Since the speaker of the House can be anyone, effectively unelected by the people (although usually, if not always a congress critter), and is in the succession of the Presidency, maybe it’s high time that that office becomes an elective office too…
And, as for hiding things, like their father the Devil, they WILL be found out.
Romans 10:26-28:
26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
27 What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.
28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
No. Not an elected position. Elections are a farce these days.
At lest we have a few conservatives, trying to do the right thing.
Would like to see Senators selected from the various states, as it used to be, but, sad to say, that’s rife for corruption too…
Rooting out the corruption seems to be all but insurmountable.. But it MUST be done… probably by Jefferson’s Tree…
I thought Senator’s were appointed by State legislatures as another form of the balance of powers, which should be restored, imo…
That’s what I meant….
Back when Mr. Smith went to Washington…
… he could walk around without getting mugged. Not so any more.
BOY AIN’T THAT THE TRUTH!!!
My last memory of DC is getting a gun shoved in my face…
Actually I scared the cr..p out of the gunman.
I am NOT polite when you wake me up at 2:00 AM.
My Ex gave him the Angry Basic Training Drill Sergeant Stare while I snarled at him…
He beat a hasty retreat.
LOL you are one of a kind!
Yes.
The way they taught balance of powers when I was in school, stressed the balances between the three branches of the federal government. They didn’t stress balancing powers between the state and federal levels.
Unfortunately the Senate as originally constituted was one of two ways the states could check the federal government…the other being a constitutional convention. so you had a baseball bat and a nuke in the arsenal. Now the baseball bat is gone, leaving only the nuke and people are rightly afraid to doss the nuke,
The Tenth Amendment has a subtle wording: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
States held a strong place under the Constitution of the “United States.” Unfortunately, ensuing history has demonstrated a long, slow deterioration of that status — punctuated by a massive expansion of Federal power during the Civil War.
While this “long march” has been the clear trend, I don’t see it as being inevitable or irreversible. It needs a sustained effort before it can even be slowed, however.
Another issue is that in many cases states retained too many powers…over their own citizens. They could engage in egregiously corrupt regulation of businesses and the like. That’s not an issue of federal/state so much as it is state/people. Sometimes in the past the feds have stepped in on the side of the people, at which point states would squawk about “states’ rights” (mind you I’m not claiming that all “states rights” complaints were illegitimate).
I don’t think the Constitution is (or was ever) perfect but it’s a damned sight better than any other one that has ever been attempted.
That was part of the rationale behind the 17th amendment; the claim was that too many people were simply buying themselves a seat in the US senate by bribing key individuals in their legislatures. I have no idea how true it was. (I can’t believe it never happend, but I’m sure it didn’t always happen.)
Probably the biggest single problem–one that crops up again and again–is that certain people in legislatures end up with disproportionate power due to the way legislatures organize themselves, We have a US speaker of the house who has nearly dictatorial power and who is able to exact tribute from his own conference, just for instance, but this sort of crap exists in the 99 state houses (Nebraska is unicameral) as well.
The elephant in the room is that it is only the method of choosing senators that was changed by the 17th Amendment. Their purpose remained the same – to represent the interests of their respective states in relation to [and as part of] the federal govt.
Because senators are now elected by the people rather than state legislatures, they now are concerned with election [and re-election]. This has been improperly morphed into being representatives of the people – in essence, duplicating what already exists in the constitution. Adding to this problem is the insulation of six year terms instead of two years, which greatly insulates them from the responsibilities of either representing the states OR representing the people.
The constitution is fit to govern only moral and religious people. It is unfit for all others.
They should not only be chosen by a method more responsive to the state legislature, they should be recallable by the state legislature.
Excellent!
The rinos are on full display. They need to be voted out.
To my utter surprise. r-Cons do NOT care about voters. 
Folks need to realize, R’s do NOT care about voters AND ACT ACCORDINGLY.
emmer won 2nd and 3rd ballots
Uniparty fav. Promises of cash payouts after installed as Speaker. Sad.
Verse of the Day for Tuesday, October 24, 2023
✟
“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”
1 John 5:13 (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.

Thanks RINOS
Just called my worthless Uniparty congress critter, Amodei. One message to day.
HELL NO to Emmer. Go back to Jordan.
Most unsympathetic man I have seen in a long time and a character to go along with it.
Having said that this is an reflection of everyone who voted for him. They own him all the way and the owe to be primaries.
History is the best evidence that human nature does not change.
How encouraging.
I am just checking in to say I am still alive and very busy. However I did put up an new article. Hopefully it drops Tommorrow a minute after midnight.
You being alive makes us smile!!!
🤓
Hope the bulk of your busyness is enjoyable! Blessings 😍
Fall is our busy season with harvest festivals and Halloween.
Sounds fun AND exhausting! Enjoy 🙂
Exhausting!
I am taking a break. I have been working on my friend’s Halloween costume and my eyes are crossing.🤓
S/He’s lucky/blessed to have you…as are we all!
Right now she is living with us until she gets an OK from the Doc on her kidneys. Unfortunately now the other one is starting to act up.
Any natural remedies to help her? Obviously she shouldn’t go near Remdesivir 😡
Will be looking for it. Thanks. Be safe out there. 🙂
Well the ponies got a video spot on a local channel. 😋
It was a fun gig. We have done gigs for this small business person several times before. Her Daughter was dressed as a fairy to go with the unicorns.
That does sound like fun, for all.
sounds delightful! 😍
Good to see you 🤗
Gail Combs is back! Good to see you here!
My Abrussi Rye is FINALLY planted with the fields limed and fertilized.
I just did a double take. It went from seed on the ground to 3″ tall over the weekend. The seed in the second set of paddocks I just spread last Friday so it is not up yet.
I’ll take your rye seeds sprouting any day over the DOZENS of tiny loblolly pine seedlings that are cropping up everywhere in my yard here! I pull them out and discard them, then the next day, voila! —- another 20+ tiny seedlings that apparently came up overnight have to be pulled. My little Yorkie is actually helping me to find them when I take him outside for walks — I call them “tiny trees.”
I sure wish those loblolly pines were coming up HERE! When we had 80 acres logged they were supposed to leave some loblolly pines to reseed the place. Unfortunately all we are getting are gum trees!
And that makes all the rabbits disappear, too…
The problems of a reseeding hare line…
You need to wrap the little tiny trees in damp paper towels and Fedex them to Gail!!
and put them into a zip lock bag. hehe
Me. I Regret Every Phase.
okay…now i am soooo confused… the double cross, the triple cross? and the voters keep in losing
I’d like to see evidence. If he is doing that, there could also be a strategic reason. Or not. We need to hear from him.
right?
hard to know what to believe any more
This is far-fatched, but I’m wondering if people know that Emmer can’t get the votes of the full House and they are trying to get him out of the way. Might be wishful thinking…
sigh…
what if this absurd outcome leads to speaker jeffries?
we don’t vote as a block, but the dems do
Unthinkable! But I don’t trust Repubs.
To quote a famous failed Presidential candidate, “At this point what difference does it make?”
The correct word is infamous.
On the contrary, the correct word would probably be unprintable.
You have a point.
I think you can be both at the same time. Although I do take your valid correction.
just got an email from Intellectual Froglegs telling “us” to phone congress–no emmer!
included is a tweet from jake sherman claiming the dem leadership is considering “purposeful absences” to lower the threshhold so emmer can win
I doubt there’s any point to phoning Ken Buck.
Same as with my worthless congress critter, Amodei.
I called anyway, a few minutes ago.
After all he voted for Emmer when Jordan was the candidate. He’s probably jizzing in his pants at the prospect of doing so when Emmer is actually the candidate.
Thinkable AND I do NOT trust r-Cons.
Years ago, it would have been unthinkable for me.
Eyes Wide Open, these days.
https://screenrant.com/princess-bride-every-time-vizzini-says-inconceivable/
Truths…the latest shows you just might be correct. Prayers up.
Is he being blackmailed by the deep state? That is the only reason in my mind unless he is truly evil.
Wellll…..
Supposedly ALL candidates promised to immediately release the J6 tapes.
Gaetz said so in a tweet ahd he also promised to hold them to it.
So either Emmer releases the tapes, pronto, or he becomes the shortest-serving speaker of the house ever.
Those tapes are pretty darn important, second only to getting the borrow-and-spend under control.
OK…I’m not sure I believe it either, but it’s at least plausible.
It could be a way to eliminate him, but he has to get past the full House vote first.
If Emmer fails that, he’s also eliminated. Someone else speculated this might just be to get him out of the way.
I recall Bannon (?) saying if we got rid of Emmer the Deep State hold on the GOP would be broken. I doubt that, TBH; they still have Bitch McConnell in the Senate and Rino McDaniel at the RNC.
Psychological ware fare at its best . Wonder who wins and why ?

Of course this only scratches the surface of how leading Democrats and the media have denied election results in recent past. If DOJ applied equal standards to everyone, most of the Democratic Party and nearly every news reporter would be on trial for Russia collusion hoax

Oregon Becomes The Latest Blue State to Suspend All Tests of English and Math Proficiency—Disinformation Expert Ace
Bacause long division…let alone Algebra 1…is too hard and patriarchal to boot.
(You can imagine the contempt I have for this “reasoning”…)
Well, with all due respect, I have contempt for the use of the word ‘reasoning’ when discussing leftists.
😂
Yep.
They forgot the leading “T” 🙂
In-fricking-deed.
Hence the quotes. Because it’s so-called reasoning, not actual reasoning.
I am all for removing cell phones, calculators and any other computers from students the moment they enter the school door.
Students should learn arithmetic and cursive writing just as a start….
I’d do something different…I’d allow four-banger calculators, AFTER they learn pencil and paper arithmetic. This would let them concentrate on the advanced concept being taught rather than the dogwork behind it (and they could solve more problems).
And heck why not slide rules?
But every once in a while, I’d forbid calculators for the day, just to keep them on their toes.
I’m less hard over on penmanship. I don’t mind someone “printing” or even doing a rough-and-ready connected printing that’s halfway between cursive and printing…provided of course it’s legible. Calligraphy (including super-elegant cursive) could be taught in art class.
I have no problems with a calculator AFTER learning arithmetic including squareroots.
The reason I included cursive is for brain development.
I don’t get the sense that it requires *cursive* per se, just some form of handwriting. It’s repeatedly contrasted with typing/keyboarding, not with printing letters.
I recall reading a newspaper article about a teacher who, rather than teaching “ball and stick” letters on “road paper” to his first graders, would teach them more fluid printing. Then the transition to actual cursive became largely connecting the letters together. (Some letters like r and s are a bit different of course. M and N are too but honestly I think the “approved” cursive should substitute a sharp spike for the first hump of both letters.)
It’s practically “criminal” how kids are not taught to either write nor read cursive. There are historical documents that they’ll never be able to verify for themselves…all sorts of issues with this come to mind 🙁
I know that styles of cursive have changed over the centuries, so even “knowing how to read cursive” I have difficulty with some older documents.
(And *Russian* cursive can get entertaining too, especially since they actually dropped four letters from their alphabet in 1918.)
One problem with Cyrillic in general is that they have a letter that looks exactly like a mashed bug.
That was (poor old) Cyril… 🙂
Where did they land? 😆
Finland?
(That would explain all of their umlauts and double-umlauted words 🙂 )…
Yes. I’ve checked out books from the library to learn more to help decipher historical documents in America. Some of the older ones have very unusual writing styles coming out of Europe, old Germany comes to mind as one challenging style originator…
.We’ve evolved so far that we’ve started going backwards. Why bother with school at all ?
Don’t give them ideas 🙂
That’s actually a very good question, given the schitt being shoveled before the pupils.
One of the gripes during the covidschina was that kids weren’t going to school. That may have been one actual benefit of Covid. Given the trannyism and other indoctrination going on there, why does anyone (other than a hopeless Leftist) want their kids going to government school?
Hear hear!
School should be voluntary. THEN, raise the standards.
It really should be voluntary. They went through all the bullshit to create federal preschool, federal programs from birth to ensure learning . Everything from free food, free childcare, etc, etc..No child left behind right ? Oh wait..each year progressively they demand less and less from the students they spent $$$ on until it gets to the point that nothing is demanded.
Our govt is one big phony pork barrel
Another issue is that in many states it is a false “right” enshrined in the constitution. So the school system has to try to educate special needs kids alongside genuinely gifted students. Not so bad until you run into idiot theories that say it’s damaging, somehow to separate these students so that each can get the sort of instruction that would best benefit them.

Gatez & Luna just came out against emmer after Trump post
Although I don’t give a rat’s ass if he “never respected the power of a Trump endorsement”, fighting MAGA all the way is a deal killer for me…not that it needed any more killing.
That is felony assault with intent to inflict great mental harm.
As most everyone on this blog knows, Pres Trump said that removing McCarthy as speaker was a dangerous game to play because –
A. We could end up with a RINO worse than McCarthy
OR
B. We could end up with a democrat as speaker
Well, congratulations all around. It looks like the Repugnicans went for all of the above.
We could very well end up with a speaker who is a RINO worse than McCarthy who acts like a democrat (and probably is a closet democrat).
Time will tell.
Possibly, but the cycle of putting RINOs in because they have an R by their name so they can cooperate with Dems in “politics as usual” needs to be broken. It’s risky to break things and make changes.
Worth a chance by me. Otherwise NOTHING gets fixed. Nothing.
I’ve heard this called a “shitshow” by fairly conservative (but not red-pilled) people.
It IS a shit show. We’re being shown just how much shit there is even in the GOP.
And I’ll happily take it over busness as usual, but then I am the same guy who titled a daily “MOAR SHUTDOWN” once.

Hello stranger. 
HOWDEEeee 
https://inspirevirtue.com/a-dog-who-follows-gladly-childrens-fable-and-a-fine-introduction-to-stoicism/
““A Dog Who Follows Gladly” is a splendid book to put on the shelves of children in your life. What our era cries out for in its overemotional hysteria is a return to the Stoic principles that have inspired generations of learned and civilized minds.
Though I received gratefully this first book as a review copy, I did not hesitate to purchase it and the aforementioned “The Stock Horse and the Stable Cat.” I particularly enjoyed that “A Dog Who Follows Gladly” includes quotes from Cleanthes of Assos (with whom I was unfamiliar) and Viktor Frankl at the beginning of the book. Van Treuren has drawn on a rich array of sources to offer a resource for young and old.
In addition to the two printed books, Stoic Simple features “The Stoic Fable Book: 100 Bedtime Tales to Help Kids be Kind, Resilient and Happy” and “The Urban Enchiridion: a Free Stoicism Book for Beginners.” These books can be read for free online. What a treasure trove!
If you are unfamiliar with Stoicism or feel intimidated by philosophy, the mark of a good children’ book is clarity and simplicity. Learn alongside your children for a happier home.”

“It seems Goudge was conscious of her decision to make a better, more beautiful world. She wrote of her work, “As this world becomes increasingly ugly, callous, and materialistic, it needs to be reminded that the old fairy stories are rooted in truth, that imagination is of value, that happy endings do, in fact, occur, and that the blue spring mist that makes an ugly street look beautiful is just as real a thing as the street itself.””

Oh I hope you like it! I’m always nervous about giving recommendations 😅
No prob. What you said & what the author of the blog post said intrigued me. Plus there was a bit of nostalgia since part of the storyline in the article reminded me of The Boxcar Children, which I used to love 🙂

VIDEO: Hamas Documented Atrocities – FOOTAGE RELEASED by Israel of Barbaric Attack on Innocent Civilians …WARNING ON CONTENT
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/video-hamas-documented-atrocities-footage-released-israel-barbaric/
All those pussified guys and shreiking girls from the universities have no idea what atrocities that the PALESTINIANS do to their enemies. It’s all a protest to them, extra credit, good for virtue signaling brownie points.
Half of those hamas looked like they just got in a van or on a bike to join the fun. No uniforms.
It’s disgusting and if there was video proof of israeli’s killing like this , door to door massacre, desecrating the dead, raping (which wasn’t on that short clip)….bring it show all of how you can defend these animals because I don’t believe that there is any such proof….
That meme of one of the rainbow people makingg friends w a terririst only to be murdered is highly accurate.
Israel is still holding back here.
The following are some new releases from the internet.

Man, that’s rough stuff.
Yea. Pay back needs to be hell, on steroids.
Agree and simply because morons keep on defending muslims as some kind of godly moral people the videos do need to be shown everywhere
Steve in Co this question is for you.
How useful would ranked choice voting be in the Speaker’s race and would you endorse that approach?
The system they did use was a runoff based system, where everyone voted for one candidate and whoever got the least votes was dropped; repeat until someone got a majority. I suspect the reason they ended up with whats-his-bucket is that too many non RINOs ran at once and split the vote.
I don’t know if IRV would have led to a different result, honestly, because in some ways it’s equivalent. In IRV people would rank candidates, then the lowest votegetter for first choice would be dropped and whoever those voters chose for second would be deemed as getting their votes (then repeat). (This would all be done with ONE round of balloting.) But that’s basically equivalent to what did happen–a second round of balloting without the one dropped candidate, except that with IRV it all happens at once.
IRV in effect means you get to specify, on the first ballot, who you will vote for on the second ballot if your first choice gets dropped. What we had was instant runoff, without the “instant.” IRV has appeal because no matter how many runoffs there are, they are done all at once. Much more practical with millions of people voting!
IRV and what they did are not exactly equivalent because people have the opportunity to change their mind as to either their second choice (if their first choice got drooped) or even change their mind and vote for a different remaining candidate even if they one they voted for the first time around still is on the ballot.
My understanding was the method you describe was for the nominating round. My question was specifically for the actual floor vote. Of course that would only be necessary if there were more than two candidates running.
Oh, the actual floor vote. Yeah, that’s different…and I lean toward no because of the peculiar situation here.
Well, with two candidates, IRV is moot. Someone will take a majority unless it’s a perfect tie.
IRV only becomes useful when there are third (and fourth, and fifth…) party candidates on the ballot.
But then, a lot of people don’t vote for one of the two official candidates. Usually, though, they’re voting for someone else because the “nominated” person is unacceptable…so IRV would still be moot; no one would have a second choice.
Perhaps if both parties were allowed to nominate multiple candidates IRV would be beneficial.

Byron nearly got the nod. But, Johnson (LA) got it. We could do a lot worse.

demons 
Undercover journalist Karlyn Borysenko was present at the recent Socialism 2023 Conference, where she recorded a Q&A session from a talk on The Politics of Childhood. One question from an audience member revealed a desire on the part of the adults present for children to participate in the “sex industry as part of children’s liberation…”
WTH ??
This is the radical craziness that is happening in Ohio. If I recall correctly, Hillary Clinton was one of the advocates of “children’s liberation”!!!
The Ohio constitutional amendment in Issue One would basically legalize child sex with adults – worse yet – FOR MONEY.
Boy you’re going to need the “washing of water of The Word” every day you engage this particular battle!

Assisted Suicide for BABIES Demanded by Quebec College of Physicians
I apologize for using the oxymoronic term “assisted suicide for babies” in the title. An infant is not self-aware and cannot “commit suicide.” Infants want to live, eat, and be held by their parents. And yet, the Quebec College of Physicians wants to expand the Canadian “Medical Assistance in Dying” program to infants…

Thanks for catching that! I got it off a recent Kill jab line up…oops 
I saw the Netflix film on this situation, where the court case was still pending. As a parent of a child w/ complex medical needs what this family went through was truly frightening. The documentary was very well done but rather hard (for me) to watch, but well worth it. I hope they get some degree of justice, though nothing will bring back the wife/mother nor the years they all suffered needlessly in a brutal, indifferent, & unforgiving system 😪
