And now for the business portion of the post borrowed from Tuesday:
Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion. In that spirit, though, threats of violence real or hypothetical are out of bounds.
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.

MATTHEW 25:31-40
31“When the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, 33and he will place the sheep at his right hand, but the goats at the left. 34Then the King will say to those at his right hand, `Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; 35for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37Then the righteous will answer him, `Lord, when did we see thee hungry and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink? 38And when did we see thee a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee? 39And when did we see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?’ 40And the King will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.’
SATIRE!
Have a good weekend!
Thank you, De Pat, for a fizzy Friday post of pear….
I think you just come for the open bar. 😆
….or was that a fried pear of post-y fizz?
That tweet/video in the open of Vivek copying Obama is amazing. I can somewhat understand studying the body language and speech patterns of a successful person, but Vivek appears to have copied words and ideas as well.
Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
I don’t think I want to copy OBungelhead the Empty Suit:
This was during the GOP 2012 convention, where the losers Romney and Rian were nominated. Turns out they were even bigger Empty Suits.
Clint just owned that whole show. I couldn’t stop laughing.
And no one appreciates flattery like Obozo.
Interesting. Could be bad. Could be good. Not sure which.
After watching it again, I’m kind of creeped out. First, I’m amazed that someone found all of that, and then I’m thinking that Vivek and/or someone in his orbit spent a LOT of time studying Obama. And instead of quoting Obama and countering things he said, Vivek is modeling himself after him. I can understand to an extent because Obama was popular and was considered a very effective speaker, but it is still creepy to me. I don’t want to see the likes of Obama in our political landscape ever again.
And Vivek’s teeth are too white. It’s distracting, LOL.
You should see him play tennis against someone who doesn’t even have a racket.
They just lob the ball to him. He bounces around a couple times, grunts like Maria Sharapova, and hits it as hard as he can.
Then from off camera, another ball is lobbed to him.
It’s all very impressive.
[giggle]
“I don’t want to see the likes of Obama in our political landscape ever again.”

He never left.
He moved down the street and ran the opposition against DJT for 4 years, and now he’s nearly through his 3rd term.
Yes, but he’s not on camera every day, thankfully.
Commonly read hussein is an effective speaker.
Have Never thought so myself.
More like, hussein is literally full of shit AND a manipulating liar.
^^^^This. His style is condescending and manipulative. It’s as if someone told him that to communicate effectively, you have to talk on a certain (elementary) grade level.
I remember taking the time to listen to his victory speech in 2008.
It didn’t seem bad. But I was listening on the radio.
It quickly became apparent that if he wasn’t reading off a teleprompter, he would bury himself in ums and uhs. So he can’t speak effectively while thinking on his feet.
I am open on the question of whether he is good as a presenter, rather than ad-libbing. I simply haven’t seen enough of how he does prepared speeches.
gross ! puke ! barf !
he’s def influenced by & emulating
obama’snarratives but without the jive-ass-mo-fo-pimp-walk parts.vivek’s a fake, thought so from the first time he bounced up on the stage, just like
obammy, from outa nowhere.practiced & rehearsed.

Yeah, He is DANGEROUS because he is SMART and practiced & rehearsed.
I am very very glad this guy realized he was copying OH!Bummer.

Trump said at least two things: that he had a hunch, and that he had talked with a lot of people. If it was a hunch, it was based on information from trusted sources.
➡️ This is an example of Trump listening to people outside of his circle, and of his knowing things that other people didn’t know.
That’s how he got rich – knowing things other people don’t know.
That is hilarious! OMG, our media is ROTTEN.
Quite funny. However, correction on the “our” – that would be “their” media. My media is alternative and starts here, thanks to you and all other contributors.

EXCLUSIVE: Moderna has halted a trial of a new mRNA vaccine for young people after a suspected myocarditis case
My first thought was who signed up to be a guinea pig for an mRNA vax? The poor adolescent’s life is changed forever.
Wow! What do you know! Another case of a vaccine doing what injectable mRNA vaccines appear to do!
There are endless ways to sell yourself, from politicians to movie stars and a thousand other ways. Practically everyone exchanges themselves and their time for money. I assume it is the same for lab rats.
TheseTruths
Thank you for bringing this.
The Moderna mRNA-based “vaccine” in question, mRNA-1189, contains FOUR SEPARATE mRNAs, encoding FOUR SEPARATE EBV GLYCOPROTEINS.
Moderna ALSO has a CMV (cytomegalovirus) “vaccine candidate” in “clinical trials.” This “vaccine” is called mRNA-1647. It ALSO has FOUR SEPARATE CMV GLYPROTEINS IN IT.
Please refer to:
https://investors.modernatx.com/news/news-details/2022/Moderna-Announces-First-Participant-Dosed-in-Phase-1-Study-of-its-mRNA-Epstein-Barr-Virus-EBV-Vaccine/default.aspx
MEANWHILE — Moderna ALSO HAS TWO OTHER CLINICAL TRIALS OF THEIR EBV “VACCINE CANDIDATES” THAT ARE “RECRUITING”:
NCT05164094, for persons ages 12 to 30 years (for mRNA-1189);
NCT05831111, for persons ages 18 to 55 years (for mRNA-1195).
AND, DO NOT FORGET:
Myocarditis DAMAGES or DESTROYS HEART TISSUE. The heart DOES NOT replace or regenerate damaged or destroyed tissue. Therefore, THERE IS NO SUCH THING, IMO, OF A “MILD” CASE OF MYOCARDITIS.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, persons with diagnosed cases of mycarditis have a survival rate of 80% for the first year after diagnosis, DROPPING TO 50% IN FIVE YEARS AFTER DIAGNOSIS:
https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/22129-myocarditis
Please scroll down to “What is my prognosis with myocarditis?”
The above DOES NOT include what are called SUBCLINICAL CASES OF MYOCARDITIS AFTER COVID-19 “VACCINATION”:

IMO, there is NO safe mRNA or modRNA “vaccine.” Period.
And it appears that these “vaccine platforms” are now being used, willy-nilly, in all sorts of injectables.
Typo correction: that’s “GLYCOPROTEINS.”
Rep. Matt Gaetz says Jan. 6 tapes will be released within ‘days’
I believe Gaetz will do his best to not have a “Charlie Brown and the football” moment. He is on a roll with the things he has accomplished in the House.
Which will prove Mike Johnson is who patriots and Christians say he is. If and when this happens it cascades.
J6 is the linchpin on DC/Congress/FIB/alphabets corruption within. The videos, evidence and testimonies being released now and within Congressional hearings reveal things are moving because they go into the Congressional record. They are evidentiary for current and future legal proceedings. They force the judiciary to recognize in all proceedings. If a leftist judge obstructs, immediate grounds for appeal. Career killer for the judges when enough appeals happen.
Anybody who holds the role of speaker will necessarily be in a position that negotiates compromise and consensus with the level of election corruption we have. They have a window of opportunity to make major, lasting gains. I am hopeful that the patriots like Johnson, Gaetz, Roy, Burchett, MTG, Higgins, etc. can force the window open wider.
Patience, fellow grasshoppers. All the right propagandists are triggered now, over target and bombs away.
Just wait until Linda Yaccarino-Hitler finds out.

“Association of American Physicians and Surgeons is calling for all COVID-19 vaccines and boosters to be removed from the market because of excess risk of injection.”
______________
So long as the ‘opposition’ stance is maintained, nothing will (or even can) happen.
Our side keeps insisting on a reality which the genociders refuse to acknowledge, and they control the brainwashing media machine.
So flip it on them.
Say this instead: “Association of American Physicians and Surgeons is calling for all COVID-19 vaccines and boosters to be removed from the market because we don’t want 95% of the doctors in America to be prosecuted and convicted of mass murder.”
Now you’re not opposing them, you’re on their side, looking out for their best interests.
How are they going to oppose you then? 😁
It’s not about the vaxx then, it’s about mass-murder.
Are they going to oppose you and say “No, I want to be tried for mass-murder”?
It works, if you flip it on them.
I learned it from Bugs Bunny when I was a kid. I don’t remember who he was arguing with, so let’s say it was Elmer Fudd.
Elmer Fudd: You can’t make me!
Bugs Bunny: Oh yes I can.
Elmer Fudd: Oh no you can’t!
Bugs Bunny: Oh yes I can.
Elmer Fudd: Oh no you can’t!
Bugs Bunny: Oh yes I can.
Elmer Fudd: Oh no you can’t!
Bugs Bunny: Oh no I can’t.
Elmer Fudd: Oh yes you can!

Once they’re locked in opposition, if you switch sides, they instinctively take the opposite position. It worked on my nephew when he was about six years old, and it would probably still work today 😁

Everyone who’s seen Bugs and Daffy argue over which hunting season it is in front of a bewildered Elmer know what kind of argument this is. For the benefit of those who haven’t seen the cartoon (probably “Rabbit Fire” or could be “Duck, Rabbit, Duck”), Elmer Fudd (the hunter in the Looney Tunes cartoons) is pointing a shotgun at Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, who commence arguing about which animal is in season.

This relates to J6 financial data.
Somebody needs to give this to Nikki. She sure needs it.
Nasty Nikki says her high heels aren’t just shoes, they’re ammunition.
For some kind of shoe shooting device, apparently.
It remains unclear what effect this claim is supposed to have on… well, anybody.
I so wish I was an artist because I would have a field day with images of Nimarata and her shoe gun.
Well, there’s the other shoe …
🤣 Loved that show.
Dang it you beat me to it!!
i dunno about ammunition but I’ve already seen a mom take off her flip flop and whack her back talking kid…so there’s that
I’m probably stretching it here and I don’t have any proof but it seems like there was tons of joking about Melania’s power high heels. I think she’s trying to copy Melania and get conservative buzz. Melania is in a class by herself and wasn’t using high heels as a statement
I think Nikki is purposely calling attention to her gender. It’s the whole ’70s “I am woman, hear me roar” rhetoric that is nausea-inducing to me.
She’s not just a woman; she’s a woman who can wear high heels, as if we’re supposed to be impressed. She might be trying to get people to place her in the same class as Melania.
Not. A. Chance.
I remember shoe phones.
Shoe guns is a new one on me.
This is a pre-1907 Iver Johnson revolver ad:
Pres. William McKinley was assassinated with an Iver Johnson revolver in 1901, and Sen. Robert Kennedy was assassinated with an Iver Johnson long rifle.
Kennedy was killed by an Iver Johnson Cadet 55-A revolver, chambered in .22LR.
McKinley was shot by an Iver Johnson .32 revolver, concealed under a napkin.
Right. In Kennedy’s case, it was chambered in long rifle .22.
AND Fitchburg MA has the largest Finnish population out side of Finland.
Not sure about RFK being shot with a rifle.

https://thenationalpulse.com/2023/11/16/tv-star-sues-astrazeneca-after-stroke-she-claims-was-caused-by-vaccine/
I don’t know if this is accurate, that that was her first dose and she received another after having all those symptoms. If so, good grief. Maybe it just means that she got the initial vaccine, the original one.
I’m never clear about this. In the U.S., pharmaceutical companies can’t be sued for vaccine injuries, but they can be in other countries?
https://www.findlaw.com/healthcare/patient-rights/can-i-sue-vaccine-manufacturers-.html
I sure would like to know who pushed that law through. Their bank account probably increased significantly throughout their career am sure.
BLACKMAIL
The vaccine manufacturers COLLECTIVELY told ?Reagan? NO MORE VACCINES UNLESS WE ARE INDEMNIFIED, so we got that law and a review board that determined if the government would pay you for vaccine damage.
There is always a point in time when people must make choices – at which time things become corrupted. That was one of those times.
Vaccines had been built up in the collective minds that all of them were good and effective. It took a lot of years of selling. Then they hit the opportune time inside the beltway and collective mindset.
Rinse and repeat with every corrupting event in our history.

SpaceX 2nd. Starship launch postponed to Saturday.
Anyone who wants to watch, you can go to this link:

From the link. Emphasis mine.
The second flight test of a fully integrated is set to launch Saturday, November 18. A twenty-minute launch window opens at 7:00 a.m. CT.
A live webcast of the flight test will begin about 35 minutes before liftoff, which you can watch here and As is the case with all developmental testing, the schedule is dynamic and likely to change, so be sure to stay tuned to our X account for updates.

Judge Arthur Engoron has just been overturned (stayed!) by the New York State Appellate Division (Appeals Court), for the 4th TIME (on the same case!). His Ridiculous and Unconstitutional Gag Order, not allowing me to defend myself against him and his politically biased and out of control, Trump Hating Clerk, who is sinking him and his Court to new levels of LOW, is a disgrace. They are defending the Worst and Least Respected Attorney General in the United States, Letitia James, who is a Worldwide disgrace, as is her illegal Witch Hunt against me. The Radical and Unprecedented actions of Judge Engoron will keep BUSINESSES and JOBS forever out of New York State. I have done NOTHING WRONG, my numbers were low, not high, I have a COMPLETE DISCLAIMER CLAUSE, their Star Witness admitted he lied and made up this Fake case against me, and the the Attorney General used a “Get Trump” platform in order to run for A.G. & Governor (she failed!). This wicked attack on Democracy must be ended, NOW!

good catch…my eyes skimmed right over it…
Pgroup sees all. 👀
Your check is in the mail. 😎
I did too on first read. I had to read it backwards to catch “the the.” LOL
I had a professor once, who in an exam asked the students to calculate an orbit around Mars. (He provided the gravitational parameter, a vital piece of info.) He specified all sorts of parameters including a period in days.
It turned out the orbit was impossible; it’d be inside of Mars.
That was the wrong answer. You see, he had deliberately typoed and written “days days” instead of “days”. Somehow that was supposed to make us realize that we should use Martian days of roughly 24 1/2 hours in the calculation.
I would wager that half of the students didn’t even see the “typo.” It so happens I did, but I knew it was an easy typo to make and a hard one to spot, so I ignored it. It certainly didn’t occur to me that the prof was trying to send a message to us with that typo.
WOW! Tricky! But REAL. Gotta give up that terracentric implicit bias!
If he had said it outright I’d be okay with it. But he chose a signal that didn’t even look like a signal, it looked like a typo.
I don’t normally bitch about trick questions, but this one was ridiculous.
this article claims the resigning attorneys signal that the ballots in question have been destroyed. I think they are leaving to cause another delay. without representation, can the case proceed?

Verse of the Day for Friday, November 17, 2023
✟
“The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.”
Proverbs 15:3 (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.

https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/11/the-daily-chart-is-the-pope-catholic.php
This is quite the interesting chart. Calling DePat and other RCC members…
Catholic, please. RCC is considered an insult. At least to me. I detest all the letter shorting.
Yes, it is true. The Apostolate has been more steadily conservative since Pope Saint John Paul II. The young guys are really orthodox in their comportment, preaching and all that. I mean, cassocks worn everywhere, not just on campus, are becoming a thing again. They are also meticulous with saying Mass. The music hasn’t made a comeback yet, but I suspect that’s coming. I sang a wedding in December where there were ten priests on the altar, and only one was over 40. They sang the Stella Redemptoris Mater in Latin from memory. I SOOOOOO wish we could get the Introits, Collects, and Marian Antiphons back. It all makes so much more sense with those in play.
Sorry – will commit that to memory when posting.
Thank you for confirming. Encouraging.
Thank you.
Yes, it is encouraging. We’re also seeing a lot of new priests who actually lived in the real world before going into seminary. They tend to make great administrators.
Serious question; why is Roman Catholic Church considered an insult? Doesn’t it just differentiate it from the Orthodox Catholic Church?
Because it’s not “Roman.” It’s universal. If you actually look at signage on Catholic church buildings, we don’t refer to it as that. The pope may be the Bishop of Rome, but that’s where it ends.
I was told on a tour that a new pope’s status does not become official until he goes to St. John Lateran’s and sits in that biship’s chair. That’s the official seat of the Bishop of Rome as such.
As such a new pope usually goes to that basilica almost immediately so that he can officially assume office.
I was told then that the current guy did things differently: he went to Santa Maria first. Apparently that’s the local Roman population’s favorite amongst the four basilicas.
That was a fascinating tour.
I generally say “orthodox” and “catholic” and people know what I am referring to, though both churches describe themselves with both words.
I will sometimes say “Roman Catholic” and “Eastern Orthodox” but my intent there is to be specific, not derogatory. Because the bare words might in some contexts be taken as adjectives rather than nouns.

Wonder what he was involved in.
I assume it was spreading the Word to sinners…😮😬🙄🤔😏😁
I don’t find that, alone, to be sufficient.
AZ??? Messed with the cartels…
Some of you read my BIMD about. our mountain songbird, Dolly. As a full fledged, card toting, Right Wing Conspiracist – I have provided a recent interview with Dolly and a local news station reporter below. We have since seen other interviews with her related to the HeartSong Resort opening I posted about recently.
Wifey and I are concerned. She is going to do some snooping with friends as we have not spoken with Dolly in several years. With all of her business, recording and family activities she is just not around as much. Add in her husband’s health issues.
Enlarge the video. It is clear to us she is not healthy. We had heard from friends she was struggling physically. Her face is drawn like a stroke/TIA/Bells Palsy on the right side as you look at her, her left. I don’t believe that is a botched plastic surgery or botox thing. We also noted that she caked her makeup even more like a drag queen in an interview on CBS, that she looked sick with weak eyes and body motions. She has some age on her, but this has happened in the past 6 months or so. She was as vibrant as ever this time last year. She tries to cover for it with the upbeat personality in public.
Going to go ahead and say, JAB. She did them and I think they have contributed to her recent physical decline. Which is what any good conspiracist would say.
Well, heck, she’s 77 years old. I’m sure the jabs didn’t help, but she is aging.
Tend to agree, it just has been a really dramatic change that even her closer friends have noted. She has always taken care of her health, even stayed on her mama and daddy for it all of their lives. There has been nothing gradual about her decline recently.
Maybe nothing, maybe something. Will see.
PDT is the same age fwiw.
Melania has a positive effect on Trump. Maintaining skin and younger appearance, one of them. We’ll never read about it, but i’d bank on it.
100% agree. It would me! 😎
I appreciate that she has a “brand” and all, but imo and it’s just that–my opinion–by trying to maintain that youthful appearance, she denigrates the beauty of older women. like saying only younger women can be beautiful so she’s gotta look “that way” instead of embracing the changes that life brings.
we now return to your regularly scheduled program.
That’s what so many in the entertainment business do.
i know. i think it’s sad.
chasing youth instead of embracing the beauty that comes with age.
It’s chasing what you were when you made maximum money acting. Not all actors really believe it’s their talent that gave them success. Lots believe their looks are an essential portion.
I’m not seeing a drawing up of her face in that video. Do you know her on a personal basis?
My understanding is yes, TB, his wife and SIL know Dolly. Guessing a ~two years ago, TB posted an article. Great read.
Yea, say what? got my attention. Apparently TB DWs, sister is dolloy’s age and were good friends in their childhood. Still are, is my take.
So the story goes, Dolly, TBs DW and sister had a sleep over, as children. Slept crosswise, not lengthwise in the bed.
If I got it right, TB and his DW, likely sister have met with Dolly, had fun chats and stuff like that.
For TB, I may have butchered the gist of the article. Please do correct when I messed up AND fill in the blanks.
Yeah, I got a vibe there. She is approaching the age where BOTH COVID and the JAB are a rough ride (80s and 90s).
Not sure if this was posted yesterday or not…

The case involves the destruction of ballots in Fulton County GA that the plantives wanted inspected but the state stonewalled against it.
I want to know what happens if those contested ballots have been “lost” or destroyed.
It should be AUTOMATIC GUILTY!
hey I’ve seen this movie! they allow illegals to vote in “local” elections to get their names on voter rolls…then send them mail in ballots for the other elections and harvest them…easy peasy

Whatever It Takes…to stay in power AND Destroy America.
Funny thing is the stupid local politicians allowing this will put themselves out of power permanently as they give it away to invaders.
they’re too worried about virtue signaling to look past the ends of their noses.
Precisely why I constantly piss on r-Cons.
(ht DP opener)
Johnson Best get the House fucking moving.
lotta recesses though.
a congress NOT in session is less likely to screw up…lol
Lots of vacation time IMO, probably when the majority of the back room deals get done. So yeah there still planning their next move to screw us over.
Which is all they do.
To be sure part of their jobs is to go home and see their constituents. I don’t begrudge them trips home as long as they’re holding town halls and the like. (Junkets to foreign countries, on the other hand, are a different matter.)
If that leaves them with not enough time to get business done, that’s really a sign the government does too damned much.
that’s true to a point. they should be accessible to their constituents on a regular basis. however they can also zoom while home, which so many were fond of, to keep the people’s business going.
Well, he could do that, but remoting was actually unconstitutional
are you sure they didn’t sneak it in an omnibus monstrosity that they can remote, embezzle and hump what they want?
cuz they sure act like it
Assuming they are accessible, to commoners.
Based on their typical schedule, if they need more time, their OVERTIME is authorized.
I don’t know about overtime, but it is PAST TIME that most of them get chucked out the door.
^^^ Also part of the problem.
Bastardsr-Cons (they Are Cons) are NOT serious.agreed. it’s like when any curve ball gets thrown their way, they have to regroup and get their new marching orders…
MTG is saying basically the same thing.

Every time I cover a J6 proceeding in DC, I fume at the fact there’s no video/audio access to public.
Yesterday I attended jury selection for J6er defending himself. Before prospective jurors entered courtroom, the defendant, Taylor Johnatakis, asked Judge Lamberth to recuse himself. Why?
Lamberth, 80, a Reagan appointee, had declared the day before that Johnatakis was guilty and told him he was going to jail–confirmed by Ryan Reilly.

she’s on a roll…
LOL!
i admit, that one took me a few seconds before it HIT me
You rock!
bwahahahahahha
As usual, I’m lost.
I’m in good company. You? 🙂
So instead of directly postponing the May trial date, the judge is causing delays like this. As long as it benefits Trump, it’s good with me.
Likely keeps Jack The Hack, off balance. Possibly keeps other Ags wondering if they should create more bogus charges.
If they do that, we can sure use it to take them out.
People, even Demoncrats, don’t like being manipulated or having their choices made for them.
they’re sheep imo
That’s an insult to sheep 🐑
But they’re too sheepish to object. 😂
Kittens are dumb. And cute in their dumbness.
Nothing to see here…

Even for people who don’t believe in God, religion has a function in society.
It is my considered opinion that most people don’t have a solid moral compass without external intervention. Not everyone; our friend Steve here, a declared atheist, is clearly moral. But he is also highly intelligent. Most people are not that bright.
This article addresses the issue very well:
“All morality is violence.
Every political regime, every law, and every moral code is built on a foundation of blood. The question is not whether there will be violence in human society but who will wield it and to what end. Will the violence that characterizes all politics be oriented toward ends that are good for life or bad for it?
Thinkers as varied as Thomas Aquinas and Friedrich Nietzsche are in perfect agreement as to the answer to this question.
In Question 95 of the First Part of the Second Part of the Summa Theologiae, Aquinas’ monumental work on Christian theology, the philosopher states that individuals who are not inclined to do good must be ruled by “force” and “fear”:…”

Don’t waste words; just use my motto. It says it all.
“The beatings will continue until morale improves.”
Thank you for the kind words. Given the number of times I hear tripe about how morality can only come from God, it’s a breath of fresh air.
I’ll add that many believers also do not have a moral compass; they are unconcerned because they think they can just do anything and be forgiven.
Well, let me tell you, no genuine follower of Jesus that I know believes that! [Note the use of the word “genuine;” I really do believe there are some fakers. More on that in a sec]
Accepting Jesus as the Savior I believe Him to be has been an interesting experience for me. It changed me in myriad ways, big and small. One way it has changed me profoundly, and I have heard others say this too, is that I realized that as a professed Christian, I had a great responsibility as a representative of Jesus. If people hear me say I am a Christian, but see me behave immorally, I am certainly not being a good ambassador for my God! And I think that is a terrible sin, as I interpret the commandment not to “take the name of the Lord in vain” to mean doing what I just described. It’s not about swearing; I am convinced it is about wearing the false mantle of professed believe while behaving in a manner not befitting God. There are fake Christians, using His name for their own purposes, I truly believe. But maybe that’s just me.
Anyway, I didn’t really make a conscious choice to change in these ways. I just showed up, and Jesus started to change me. It seems weird, maybe, but it was effortless.
