Author note: I was MIA most of the day with music commitments (if we didn’t love it, we wouldn’t do it). So, this is going to be on the short side. Yes, my hair reeks to incense, and I’ve sung more Latin today than in the past six months, but…five down, six to go. And…yes…I will end up renewing my Baptismal Promises four times by the time ham is served on Sunday afternoon.

According to the Church Fathers, Christ recited this while hanging on the cross. Probably in Aramaic, but this is translated from the Vulgate, which is the Bible translated by St. Jerome.
Psalm 21
Unto the end, for the morning protection, a psalm for David. 2 O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins. 3 O my God, I shall cry by day, and thou wilt not hear: and by night, and it shall not be reputed as folly in me. 4 But thou dwellest in the holy place, the praise of Israel. 5 In thee have our fathers hoped: they have hoped, and thou hast delivered them.
[2] “The words of my sins”: That is, the sins of the world, which I have taken upon myself, cry out against me, and are the cause of all my sufferings.
6 They cried to thee, and they were saved: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. 7 But I am a worm, and no man: the reproach of men, and the outcast of the people. 8 All they that saw me have laughed me to scorn: they have spoken with the lips, and wagged the head. 9 He hoped in the Lord, let him deliver him: let him save him, seeing he delighteth in him. 10 For thou art he that hast drawn me out of the womb: my hope from the breasts of my mother.
11 I was cast upon thee from the womb. From my mother’s womb thou art my God, 12 Depart not from me. For tribulation is very near: for there is none to help me. 13 Many calves have surrounded me: fat bulls have besieged me. 14 They have opened their mouths against me, as a lion ravening and roaring. 15 I am poured out like water; and all my bones are scattered. My heart is become like wax melting in the midst of my bowels.
16 My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue hath cleaved to my jaws: and thou hast brought me down into the dust of death. 17 For many dogs have encompassed me: the council of the malignant hath besieged me. They have dug my hands and feet. 18 They have numbered all my bones. And they have looked and stared upon me. 19 They parted my garments amongst them; and upon my vesture they cast lots. 20 But thou, O Lord, remove not thy help to a distance from me; look towards my defence.
21 Deliver, O God, my soul from the sword: my only one from the hand of the dog. 22 Save me from the lion’s mouth; and my lowness from the horns of the unicorns. 23 I will declare thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the church will I praise thee. 24 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him: all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him. 25 Let all the seed of Israel fear him: because he hath not slighted nor despised the supplication of the poor man. Neither hath he turned away his face from me: and when I cried to him he heard me.
26 With thee is my praise in a great church: I will pay my vows in the sight of them that fear him. 27 The poor shall eat and shall be filled: and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their hearts shall live for ever and ever. 28 All the ends of the earth shall remember, and shall be converted to the Lord: And all the kindreds of the Gentiles shall adore in his sight. 29 For the kingdom is the Lord’s; and he shall have dominion over the nations. 30 All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and have adored: all they that go down to the earth shall fall before him.
31 And to him my soul shall live: and my seed shall serve him. 32 There shall be declared to the Lord a generation to come: and the heavens shall shew forth his justice to a people that shall be born, which the Lord hath made.
SATIRE!
Have a good weekend!
Deplorable Patriot,
I want to thank you for another week of posts that we enjoy so much.
Oh, and —
That one is more about the history of the place. Here’s one that just wanders around —
And, for those jonesin’ for the roses, there’s —
Have you been to the one in Chicago? Pretty place.
you couldn’t pay me enough to go to Chicago
It’s in the ‘burbs, not like here where the Garden is smack dab in the middle of the south side.
Chicago = No Go Zone for Slow Guy. (Blue Shitholes)
Hell, based on 2A, I avoid IL, NY, NJ, MD…
Me, too. Illinois is a mess. Trying to pass through with a firearm is risky at best. Chicago is the worst. There’s a kind of phony mind control “no guns” utopia mentality that is periodically broken by reality, and then after people tell themselves “it was just black-on-black, criminal-on-criminal”, they go back to thinking they’re safe again.
We had a murder (shooting between vehicles) a couple of blocks away, last time we were there.
The whole place feels like Pritzker’s Alternate Reality.
According to my brother who goes up to see their daughter/family it’s weird. My niece is in her natural habitat, liberal utopia suburbia, surrounded by simmering rage filled low income areas, the trains are dicey…it might go good or it might be full of urine soaked freaks. Ubers are the same..might get a good one or a snarly foreigner
The suburbs are very nice – very “Hillary” – it all makes sense.
It depends on WHERE you are trying to pass through. The southern part of the state is armed to the teeth.
Definitely less risky in the southern part, but the laws there are still very restrictive compared to other states, and there is no reciprocity for concealed carriers from other states. Even completely disarming and storing firearms to Illinois standards, doesn’t guarantee that bad arrests won’t still happen (they often do), along with firearms confiscation. Nightmare stories abound. Basically, the Illinois LE can’t be trusted not to use a kind of 2A lawfare against outsiders. Best to just avoid.
And that doesn’t even get into the poorly signed and almost unannounced toll roads that photograph license plates and then track the people down for a shakedown. Convenient payments and penalties, but very scammy.
I used to love Chicago but it is nothing what it used to be.
Applies to many cities that were nice to visit.
Now, D-Rat shitholes. Saddens me.
Yes they ruin everything 🙂
I have not been to the one in Chicago. Many of these, I am discovering as I present them to you.
I have been to the one that I’m planning for next week……but spent far too much of my time in their collection of carnivorous plants (with behind-the-scenes tour) to be able to claim knowledge of the rest of the garden.

Psalm 21 is the real deal!
For those of us who are not Catholic, that is Psalm 22.
Confusing!

No kidding!
It wasn’t us who changed the numbering.
It’s not a law yet.
Hope it is – and SOON!!!
Pretty simple, if you ask me [nobody ever does].
Just say that any alien without a green card or a visa is a trespasser in Idaho.
Note: this will probably have a big negative effect on the Chobani yogurt plant.
Bitter humor.
Not alone.
How about we just accept what we see? Too crazy?
I do have some reservations about linking famous people to everyone they have taken a photo with because it’s often random and they don’t know everything about the person. But in Oprah’s case, what we see is lots of apparent hobnobbing with now-known abusers. IMO she has some ‘splainin’ to do.
was that story about her and her “girls” made up?
i forget the particulars but some charity/school she set up in another country to help young girls somehow was linked to something nefarious?
That’s the problem.
Can’t unsee the evil AND corruption.
But you know that. Methinks.
The line was ‘time to have a conversation’ and my response meant that we didn’t need a conversation because we could plainly see it.
Sorry for being too concise. 😆
D O H !
she is sooo vulgar.
She’s also a hypocrite and liar. She gained her fame and fortune by white audiences and in later years became a race baiter. She repped weight watchers for years maybe decades and then denied using ozempric until she recently admitted it.
No proof but she probably introduced a few young aspiring actresses to Weinstein for his casting couch.

Thanks for that hymn, My Song Is Love Unknown – ! it really grabbed and wrenched my heart, soul, spirit – which needed a good wrenching. Oh how much work the Lord has to do yet in me…I can never comprehend or approach His kind of love.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Song_Is_Love_Unknown
My favorite choir….
My song is love unknown,
my Saviour’s love to me;
love to the loveless shown,
That they might lovely be.
O who am I,
that for my sake
my Lord should take
frail flesh and die?
He came from his blest throne
salvation to bestow;
but men made strange, and none
the longed-for Christ would know.
But O, my Friend,
my Friend indeed,
who at my need
his life did spend!
Sometimes they strew His way,
and His sweet praises sing;
resounding all the day
hosannas to their King.
Then ‘Crucify!’
is all their breath,
and for His death
they thirst and cry.
Why, what hath my Lord done?
What makes this rage and spite?
He made the lame to run,
he gave the blind their sight.
Sweet injuries!
yet they at these
themselves displease,
and ‘gainst him rise.
They rise, and needs will have
my dear Lord made away;
a murderer they save,
the Prince of Life they slay.
Yet cheerful He
to suffering goes,
that He His foes
from thence might free.
In life no house, no home
my Lord on earth might have;
in death no friendly tomb
but what a stranger gave.
What may I say?
Heav’n was his home;
but mine the tomb
wherein he lay.
Here might I stay and sing:
no story so divine;
never was love, dear King,
never was grief like Thine!
This is my Friend,
in Whose sweet praise
I all my days
could gladly spend.
— Samuel Crossman, Common Praise

Has anybody connected Baltimore to watching the water (765)? Or not. ChiNazis love them some ships and ports they can control and activate at will.

OH!
Thanks for the clarification.
So is that a serious Q? A misdirection Q? One that happens to fit?
(All rhetorical)

Slow Guy can follow that one. Thanks. 
OH, I see wut ya did there. Still.

You’re not???
No offense but what are you doing in the Q tree???
[don’t get me wrong – we appreciate you being here – it’s just a comment I never expected to read/hear from a long-time member]
Q stuff is OK fine. Prodding folk to THINK, RESEARCH…great stuff.
Misdirection Not appreciated.

Honest, helpful, smart, insightful, caring, helping hands, tutoring at times, tolerant of differing views, Patriots, Freedom of Speech, Wolf allows me to be a guest and quite frankly I appreciate everyone here.

no I’m not…you must be relatively new ?
I never was a Q fan….and the oldies here incl Wolf already know that…
no offense.
I followed Wolf here after being banned, like many others here, from OT.
enuff said.
Feeling like I’m in great company.
Yea, Q followers or not, in great company. 👍
We are in great company. I would not have done what smiley2 did so I couldn’t resist asking about it.
And it matters not what the answer is, as regards the value of smiley2 or any other member of this blog. We are blessed and we are exceptional.
😍
😍 Just genuinely curious. Thanks for responding.
however…and let me be perfectly clear about it..
I am now and I have always been : a conspiracy theorist.
a White Rural one, at that.
(smiley face)
😍
We’ve always allowed Q agnostics.
I hadn’t thought of it in those terms, but strategically, there are few ports that would have been more disruptive no matter what the “experts” have to say. Still not sure if it was our government or someone else’s that did the deed, but that’s the bottom line.
I’m now wondering how many ports conveniently have a bridge that can be dropped into a navigation channel.
Imagine Coronado Bridge crashing down.
USN inport San Diego 32nd street base Captive.
Some ideas…

https://www.cmhi.com.hk/chinas-presence-in-us-shipping-ports/
https://thediplomat.com/2024/02/shipping-ports-and-chinas-new-maritime-empire/
IMO, if our government was involved it would be the side that plays for the ChiNazis team. Changing a normal shipping route and Port of Entry for products and potential weaponry where one has established a distribution channel is in play. All of the distribution from that Baltimore port has been disrupted. Who benefits from that?
We are clearly being infiltrated through the southern border with sleeper cells being set up nationwide in critical areas where infrastructure can be taken out. JMO, Baltimore was practice for the main events, just like the trade centers, COVID, etc.
Just on stray comments on news sites have I seen it mentioned. Comments that drew little attention.
Speaking of watch the water… there is this Angela Chao’s name has been popping up now and then. There is of course her death for watch the water, but also her life. At age nine she began to visit her father’s ships exploring the holds and ballasts areas. Later the Harvard MBA grad would run her fathers shipping company the Foremost Group.
Here’s the section on her career.
This woman was well connected.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Angela_Chao&oldid=1216052733
“As CEO, she became interested in adding more environmentally sustainable vessels that can burn alternative fuels to the company’s roster.”
How many are doing this, maybe the Dali’s engine died because they were running it off crap…
“Definition in the USIn the US, the EPA defines alternative fuel as
Alternative fuel including gaseous fuels such as hydrogen, natural gas, and propane; alcohols such as ethanol, methanol, and butanol;>>> vegetable and waste-derived oils;<<< and electricity. These fuels may be used in a dedicated system that burns a single fuel, or in a mixed system with other fuels including traditional gasoline or diesel, such as in hybrid-electric or flexible fuel vehicles.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_fuel”
****************************************
“In 2013, the consumption of vegetable oils and animal fats for foods in China was about 30 million tons, which generated 15% (about 4.5 million tons) waste cooking oils7. Seeking an effective and safe process to process such vast WCO is one of the most decisive issues for current society and converting WCO to diverse types of functional materials has become a major focus of research interest. Recent examples of its successful exploitation in non-food applications include as a feedstock in the manufacture of biodiesel”

New Jan. 6 Scandals: Julie Kelly on Destruction of Evidence and the DNC Pipe Bomb
By American Thought Leaders
28 Mar 2024
https://www.theepochtimes.com/epochtv/new-jan-6-scandals-julie-kelly-on-destruction-of-evidence-and-the-dnc-pipe-bomb-5611442
“Think about this: If you’re going to do an investigation into January 6, who’s one of the first people you would call to testify, even behind closed doors? FBI Director Christopher Wray—they never interviewed him. They never interviewed Steven D’Antuono, who’s in charge of the Washington Field Office who oversaw the entire January 6 criminal investigation.”
In this episode, I catch up with investigative journalist Julie Kelly to get an update on what we know, and still don’t know, about what happened on Jan. 6, 2021.
“Why did the January 6 Select Committee—why did they destroy evidence that they collected? Why are they hiding transcripts from witness interviews at the White House … and at the Department of Homeland Security? How possibly could text messages belonging to more than two dozen Secret Service agents and officials, including the director, just vanish?”
What are the charges defendants are facing? What was the level of government and law enforcement involvement? Why hasn’t the mystery of the D.C. pipe bomb been solved?
“If you would have told me that two years later—I think that was when we recorded that interview for the [Epoch Times Jan. 6] documentary—that we would still be talking about people being rounded up, investigated, arrested, charged, and convicted now in early 2024, even I would have had a hard time, I think, grasping that that would be the reality. But here we are, in February of 2024. The Department of Justice is now on pace to arrest one January 6 defendant a day this year,” says Ms. Kelly.
Where is the judge that will look at all this deceit, throw the entire case out and then follow up with indictments of the deceivers?
Great points.
I, We, have been wondering this aloud, at least since Russia, Russia, Russia was exposed for the scam it was.
~Ten years of DOJ FIB constant harassment of Trump, J6ers, conservatives…
Dozens of examples. Justice in America is mostly FUBAR.
Honest judges AND prosecutors ARE few AND far between.
DePat
Busy singing time for you, for sure. Please take care of yourself and your instrument!
At the third Mass of the day, I sat out Offertory and the Mass parts in the Eucharistic Prayer. It was a lot yesterday.
Wise move.
A LOT of work! Vocal warrior princess!
Her instrument???
Are you referring to her voice, because I’m unaware of any other she plays?
pgroup2
Yes, the instrument of her singing voice. Which encompasses not only the components of the vocal apparatus, but also the lungs and the body in general. A singer uses the entire body in performance, even if the singer is standing still.
And from time to time, depending on the standing length of any performance, we lose feeling in our feet.
I had a voice teacher who would say, your instrument is not straight, if one was slouching.
Verse of the Day for Friday, March 29, 2024
✟
“For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?”
Matthew 16:26 (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.
GOOD, GOOD FRIDAY
JESUS – WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR US
How can we thank You for Your love for us
For what You have suffered – Oh, Sweet Jesus
It began with prayer in the Garden
You sweat tears of blood for our pardon
You taught us acceptance of Father’s will
You taught the importance of prayer still
You displayed how to be a servant of all
How blessed we are if we answer His call
You set out patience and perseverance
Your silence was notable adherence
We cannot imagine the perpetual pain
And all for our eternal life to gain
You exemplified unconditional love
What we struggle to be capable of
With each step to Your final elevation
Each part of You in abject ablation
Sweet Jesus – What have You done for us
Humiliating degradation thus
The agony had to be core complete
For propitiation – our sin to delete
The example of patient perseverance
Is one we must learn for apt adherence
We forget – we complain – of daily woes
You sorely suffered at the hands of Your foes
Our lives in turmoil – our nation in distress
There appears to be no end to the duress
And yet – when we think of Your sacrifice
All that we suffer is naught imprecise
Thus – If we turn the cross into a plus
We see clearly what You have done for us
The love displayed by Your outstretched arms
Anything we suffer – Your love disarms
Thank You, Sweet Jesus, for so loving us
For reopening Heaven – surely a plus
At the end of our lives here on Earth
A glorious reward of wondrous worth
D01: 04/07/2023
Since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.
You have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant
Let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire.

It really says a lot about a man whose dogs repeatedly bite unsuspecting staff and Secret Service agents. And, it’s not good.
“Sick: Biden Cracks Joke About His Dogs Attacking Secret Service Agents”
“Harry Truman said if you want a friend in Washington, get a dog. I got one and it bit a secret service agent.” ~ FJB
Excerpts:Judicial Watch announced today that it received 269 pages of records from the U.S. Secret Service related to incidents of aggression by President Biden’s dog Commander, including at least 23 biting incidents. After one incident, East Wing public tours were stopped for approximately 20 minutes due to the blood on the floor from the attack in the area of the “Booksellers.”
Judicial Watch reported in February on the Bidens’ dogs attacking Secret Service agents, noting that a source claimed Joe Biden punched and kicked the dogs (excerpt)

I am mildly amazed that those mutts never got shot by one of those agents.
In self-defense, of course.
me too!
In the real world a dog that habitually bites people is usually confiscated by animal control. The owners would have to correct the problem by confining the pet or put it down but not the Bidens. They’re above the law and below common decency
WOW. This is HUGE. Excellent perspective. The “Just Us” department is corrupt as all hell.
It must be so frustrating to research and present proof of corruption to have it ignored.

smacking down the maggot’s administration
article
A federal court struck down a Biden administration rule Wednesday night requiring states and cities to set climate targets for transportation.
Judge James Hendrix, a former President Trump appointee, agreed with the Republican-led states that sued over the rule that the Biden administration did not have the authority to require them to set the targets.
Hendrix argued that the administration was not authorized under law to include environmental benchmarks in states’ assessment of highway “performance.”
He wrote that the law referring to the “performance of the Interstate/National Highway Systems” refers to “the infrastructure’s effectiveness in facilitating travel, commerce, and national defense—not environmental outputs of vehicles using the systems.”
The rule, from the Federal Highway Administration, required state and local transit authorities to set targets for decreasing planet-warming emissions and report on its progress. It also set up a national framework for measuring and reporting transportation-related emissions.
A spokesperson for the highway administration, which is part of the Transportation Department, said the agency was reviewing the decision and figuring out next steps. The spokesperson stressed the administration’s commitment to combatting climate change.
Meanwhile, congressional Republicans cheered the court’s action.
“This was a clear case of blatant overreach by the Biden Administration from the beginning, and we commend the Court for its ruling,” Reps. Sam Graves (R-Mo.) and Rick Crawford (R-Ark.) said a joint statement.
They described the rule as an “unlawful attempt to circumvent Congress and force this one-size-fits-all burden upon every state and community across the country.”

The Lawless Biden Puppet Regime continues to operate and act illegally, passing un-Constitutional policies and illegal activities such as spying, harassing and (knowingly) falsely accusing lawful American citizens while turning a blind eye to the illegal migrant crime wave.
We The People have been screaming “That’s illegal!” for 4 years and they reply “Prove it to stop us!”. Hardly possible in the activist judge climate that exists to support the Crime Regime.
When 47 starts trying and convicting these criminals, all The Evils will yell and scream,” He’s going after his political opponents just like we said he would!”. And it will be glorious.
Go on with your bad self, Scott. Tell her where to get off.
And that sums it up.

This was not written by me, but it touched me deeply… Sunday is coming. “He received 39 stripes because 40 was known to kill a man. They wanted him alive. They held handfuls of his beard, and hair and pulled it out by the roots. They wanted him alive. They kicked, punched, and spit on him for hours. Until there wasn’t a single spot on his body not covered in blood. They wanted him alive. They shoved a crown of thorns down on his head so harshly it stuck in his skin. They wanted him alive. After hours of being beaten, mocked, whipped, flogged, and tortured they made him walk with a cross. They made him carry it. A rough piece of wood with splinters digging into fresh wounds. They wanted him alive. They wanted him to feel every ounce of pain they could bring. He had to feel it in order to heal us. Crucifixion was historically one of the cruelest most tortured deaths a human could face. Hours upon hours of torture. Torture most of us can not mentally think of because the cruelty isn’t normal. It isn’t something our minds can comprehend. We celebrate Easter with pastel colors, happy children hunting eggs, and chocolate. Truth is there was absolutely nothing happy about the day Jesus died. It was cruel, bloody, and nasty. He could have stopped all of it. He could have called every angel in heaven to demolish every person standing and shouting “Crucify Him!” He didn’t. He knew in order to have a Sunday you have to have a Friday. He knew in order to have joy you have to carry your cross. He felt everything that day. He felt how your heart broke wide open when you had to watch your baby die. He felt how heavy your life was when you were staring down the barrel of a gun wondering if the man you called husband was going to shoot you. He carried the weight of the burden you have felt since your spouse died, and life just doesn’t seem right since. On that cross he held the rapist and murderers, the sinner and the saint. He leveled every playing field and said ALL of you are worth it. He knew he had to carry the cross. He never promised the cross you carry in this life would not be heavy. His wasn’t. His promise is that Sunday is coming. No matter how heavy Friday is. Financially, emotionally, mentally, or physically. Friday is heavy. That cross is weighing you down and you are about to crumble under its weight. His promise was simply this. He won’t make you carry it alone. What kind of king would step down from his throne for this? Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of God did. For you. He did every bit of it for you and me. Oh yes, it is heavy. So heavy sometimes you do not think you can take one more step. But look up, because Sunday is coming.”
Amen.
And physical consequences.
Like being confined to a prison cell.

Another NYC woman sucker-punched on street in attack that left her with broken jaw
https://nypost.com/2024/03/29/us-news/another-nyc-woman-sucker-punched-on-street-in-attack-that-left-her-with-broken-jaw/
Suspect:
Pichardo’s jaw has been wired shut as a result of the punch. Three of her teeth were knocked out and she has nerve damage. She’s also lost feeling in her lips and currently has to drink her food from a straw.
Beyond her injuries, Pichardo said what has affected her the most is her fear. She hopes New York City leaders will do more to make sure people are safe just walking down a street.
“I don’t want this happening again. I want New York to do something about this. They have to stop this. It’s not fair,” Pichardo said.
“She hopes New York City leaders will do more to make sure people are safe just walking down a street.”
___________
This is a deranged kind of hope.
It’s the equivalent of hoping for ice water in Hell.
Rule of law is gone in NYC.
Hope isn’t going to fix that.
If you want safer living conditions, only leaving NYC will accomplish that.
“It’s the equivalent of hoping for ice water in Hell.”
Seriously accurate. 😎
Speaking of blue shitholes.
Yep….
That picture of Scott Adams is so perfect.
People should sue NYC, Mayor, Governor, NYPD…all of them. They’ve created this unsafe environment.
To my go to pic of Adams now. Accurate.
Watching the tweet network (X) it seems as if the indigenent are suddenly going off like fire crackers all around the country.
Even if they are listening to the pesters telling them to do it, what benefit is there? Just crazy i guess.
Alrighty then… now there is this.

The gist of the story. There’s more inside.
Subtle… but exactly what these peacocks would do.
So question I’m now stuck on. Was Angela Choa’s death the result of saying no to the use of one of her ships, at which time another ship was chosen and she became a loose end?
They sure do run slow, I mean, that’s just sad… my Mom can run faster than that if it was a real emergency 😂
This isnt exactly true.
My insurance has gone up every year for the last 8 yrs. The companies want automatic 20-50% rate increases, per those ive talked to, bc of massive building into areas known for fires, floods, mudslides. I believe that this is intended by the commies to force all insurance to leave w only govt option left. Then, as people are unable to secure insurance, and cannot get a mortgage, developers w politicians in their pockets can swoop in. People w cash will have prime areas, developers will build beautiful eastern bloc tenement housing for the peons.
California Won’t Let Homeowners Insurance Companies Raise Rates, so They’re Leaving the State Instead
Reading insurance trade magazines isn’t everyone’s idea of a great time, but every Californian should pay attention to the latest news in that arcane world. “State Farm to pull out of 72,000 California insurance policies,” blared a Reinsurance News headline. State Farm provides nearly 21 percent of state homeowner policies, so this is big news. Last year, it stopped writing new homeowner policies. Now it’s “non-renewing” existing ones and getting out of apartment policies entirely.
Stories about the state’s crisis du jour have seeped into the mainstream media too. “The ongoing home insurance crisis in California is about to deepen as yet another company has announced its withdrawal from the state over profitability concerns,” explained Newsweek earlier this month, reporting on the exit of Texas-based American National.
However, the California Department of Insurance website’s top item boasts that Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara “protects policy holders affected by wildfires from non-renewals.” How’s that working out for us? The state’s insurance problems have plagued wildfire-adjacent homeowners for a few years, but it’s rapidly spreading to homeowners in non-wildfire-adjacent areas. The state’s “protections” are window dressing.
I don’t live anywhere near a forest, yet my latest renewal showed a near-doubling of rates. After talking to my insurance agent, I decided to just pay the higher premium and be thankful I received a renewal. Increasing numbers of Californians must now rely on the so-called FAIR Plan (Fair Access to Insurance Requirements), the state-created, industry-funded insurer of last resort—one that provides only barebones coverage.
https://news.yahoo.com/california-wont-let-homeowners-insurance-113015400.html
Coming to home owners in Florida soon too. Rhonda needs to put on his big boy pants and step up to the plate quickly.
I was thinking about Florida when i read that.
Is insurance in the state a wreck bc of hurricane payouts or something else?
Have read a few times FL has like problems with homeowners insurance.
Ok. Well we arent going to florida or texas.
IMO it’s a combination, fraud going on with insurance companies and contractors. You can have hail damage from storms and the contractors come around and get you a new roof through insurance for free when everyone else pays full price. So you have 2-3 year old roofs being replaced when the damage is confined to a very small area of the roof.
15-25k is the going rate for a roof. If you don’t have the $ to have it replaced, you can’t get insurance. The insurance companies are demanding a new roof after 10 years or no insurance. Ronda “is” working on a solution to the problem, we’ll see what happens. In the mean time I’ve seen a number of people going without insurance coverage if their mortgage is paid off and there’re on a fixed income.
Ahhhh ok. Thats a lot of self fulfilling fraud.
Another reason to leave CA.
Mr gil now says retirement possibly only in 1.5 yrs. Breaking his ankle and everything politically, in addition to dgas anymore about the politics at work.
Wow!
Yep. Gott get moving o n repairs here.
I’m going to be seriously annoyed with myself if gil00 gets out before I do.
Lol. Well, we both wanted to stay until our surviving parents have died, however, w kiddo and the rainbow degeneracy, that may contribute to going. His retirement is a real change in our lifestyle.
No need to read the article, the headline says it all..
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/biden-s-7-5-billion-investment-in-ev-charging-has-only-produced-7-stations-in-two-years/ar-BB1kI8y7?ocid
Biden’s $7.5 billion investment in EV charging has only produced 7 stations in two years
Where did the money go❓
Boondoggle has it.
Need you ask? The usual family members and friends.
Politicians, friends, neighbors, furniture for Federal workers…
NOT /s
From the article: “Part of the slow rollout is that the new chargers are expected to be held to much higher standards than previous generations of fast chargers. The United States currently has close to 10,000 “fast” charging stations in the country, of which over 2,000 are Tesla Superchargers, according to the Department of Energy. Tesla Superchargers — some of which have been opened to drivers of other vehicles — are the most reliable fast-charging systems in the country.
But many non-Tesla fast chargers have a reputation for poor performance and sketchy reliability.”
____________
So the options are pretty straight forward.
Either the gov’t can throw tax dollars down a toilet trying to reinvent the wheel, and fail continually, because gov’t doesn’t do anything well…
Or they could license Tesla’s product, mass produce a wheel that has already been invented and had the bugs worked out.
So naturally, the gov’t decided to go the route with zero chance of success, at the maximum cost to the taxpayer.
Because of course of they did.
Bbbut think of all the contracts (friends & family) handed out. It doesn’t mean anything needs to be produced…it’s Bidenworks
License a proven system…that’s crazy talk
Another option.
Piss on EVs. Drive a gasser or diesel. Problem solved.
That too!
AFAIK, Tesla drivers aren’t complaining about a lack of charging stations.
Good work if you can get it.
In other words, glad you’re an American.
4:30 talks about Biden’s Fundraiser was with in an easy drive distance. Would have taken him 1hr and half total from his schedule for him to have paid a visit to the funeral home. He didn’t bother nor even bothered to make a phone call to the family.
no $$ in it for him
Disgusting but probably the main reason.
Plus unlikely to get votes from that particular group.
Why did the Baltimore bridge collapse so quickly? Engineers reveal how the ‘flimsy’ structure came crashing down like a house of cards after being struck by the Dali container ship
“For most other people who use truss bridges, there is no reason to fear that your bridge may collapse unless it also happens to be struck by a container ship.”
______________
For most other people?
What about those who aren’t in the ‘most other people’ category?
And how does one know if they are in (or out of) the ‘most other people’ category?
It could be that I should fear truss bridges now, and not even know it!
It’s one of those “safe enough” situations based on likely scenarios. But the one-in-a-million event DID happen.
Trussbridgophobia…
Gephyrophobia…the irrational fear of crossing bridges. (But if it’s based on actual events, is it irrational? 🤔)
Now if they could explain the sharp turn…it was said to be a slack tide..so choppy rough tide can’t be the answer.
Right after it happened, there were reports about how difficult the situation was for the crew and that their efforts to avert the disaster involving the rudder and anchors could have caused the ship to move in opposite directions than they intended since they were without power.
It looks very suspicious, and I’d like to see discussion from experts about the possibility of remote control. (But they might not feel free to talk.)
There were no explosions to bring the bridge down. Since it hit a major support pillar, those were not needed. And any state actor would have known that, based on the design of the bridge and the materials used.
My guess.
Anchor dropped. Hit bottom and ship dragged the anchor. Causing a turn.
Slow Guys view.
Apparently the ship had no ability to steer.
Harbor Pilot should have let the ship continue on whatever course it was on, until clear of the bridge. THEN, let loose / drop the anchor.
I have NOT heard a word from the two Harbor Pilots onboard Dali. THEY are responsible for safe navigation while onboard the ship.
.
Obvious problem: if a ship hits ANY of the support pillars, the bridge is going to collapse.
Possible solutions:
1) pray that no one ever hits a support pillar
2) recognize that with enough time and traffic, sooner or later, SOMEONE is going to hit a support pillar, either by accident or by intent, and the bridge will collapse — so design to prevent that from happening
This looks like a good case for “and” logic.
“And” logic includes solution #2, but they only included solution #1.
So make the pillars far enough apart to allow for concrete or rock ‘guardrails’ protecting the side of the pillars that would make contact with a passing ship.
Either design the guardrails to absorb energy by controlled collapse and deflecting of force away from the support pillars, or design the guardrails to be strong enough to break the ship instead of the bridge (that would be my choice, because if the ship owners know the ship will sink if they hit the support pillar, then the ship captains will be much more careful not to hit the support pillar).
Nobody did either one, so this was a completely predictable event, and it’s amazing that it took 47 years to happen.
If you look at the two pillars to the left of the circled one, then into the harbor a bit between them, you see this little white pillar…..surrounded by a ginormous guard structure.
One has to wonder why the little white pillar was more deserving of protection than the main supports of a structure that could be loaded with dozens of vehicles.
Maybe that was part of the support design for the entire bridge, making the perimeter pillars very strong to help the bridge withstand smaller blows like waves or a slight touch from a tugboat. I’d like to hear from an engineer whether that was feasible for the middle pillars. There might be too large of an underlying structure to make it workable for the area where ships would pass through.
You can be sure they’ll come up with a-million-and-one excuses why nothing could have prevented it, now that it has already happened.
I’ve seen this movie a few times before, during my trips around the sun on this here rock 😉
“One has to wonder why the little white pillar was more deserving of protection than the main supports of a structure that could be loaded with dozens of vehicles.”
_____________
That’s an ivory tower.
Some politician lives there.
They spare no expense for their own protection.
This would be a good time for Little Petey to step up and create a long range plan for bridge and trestle retrofitting. Billions and trillions apparently are available for the asking so…
But that would cut into administration priorities, like the Ukraine budget.
Short. Early Biden talk foreshadowing his intentions for the invasion of America. Might of been better if they’d show’d the actual speech rather than the close ups of him giving it.

Jack Smith’s Case Against Trump Appears to Be Falling Apart
Serves Smith right. He opened that case in DC just to get away from Cannon if memory is correct. The cases are somewhat similar and he wanted insurance that at least one of his cases got heard. Now both are at jeopardy. 😆
Now the creepy part if these two things are true. CERN and NASA’s APEP rocket similarly named after the serpent that periodically wakes to attack Ra, the Egyptian sun god to make news on the same day. One is scheduled to be turned on after two years of being idle and the other is scheduled to go up on the same day as the solar eclipse.

CERN Particle Accelerator to Go Live During Solar Eclipse After Two Year Hiatus

We have NASA sending sending up Rocket APEP (to where?)
And on an unannounced date next week, we have the Russian Military launching an RS-28 non-nuclear warhead missile aimed at the Kura Battlefield Missile Impact site.
I can’t but wonder if the 10 Tons of Explosives is going to be unleashed while the eclipse is at its darkest….
Other than an eclipse is really cool, infrequent, I really do not get all the linkage of stuff to eclipse.
Nonsense.
They could be staging events on the day on purpose, knowing that linking them would be nonsense, and watching people’s reactions.
Yup. Understand that. Still nonsense.

Now, there’s a report that a Chinese illegal alien was arrested by the Border Patrol after he breached a military base in the El Centro sector of California. He was there without authorization and refused to leave. His purpose & intent behind his actions are still being investigated.

If he refused to leave, I think we can assume that there was something wrong here. How did he even get on the base to begin with? Someone’s going to have to answer up for that as well. And once they found him there, they just ordered him to leave, and only arrested him after he wouldn’t? Were they just going to let him go without wondering or investigating what he was doing there?
We don’t know what this man’s specific aim was.
But we know that there’s a problem of Chinese nationals being found at military bases. The House Oversight Committee raised the alarm in October 2023 about Chinese nationals accessing military bases.
“According to a recent report, Chinese nationals, sometimes posing as tourists, have repeatedly accessed, or attempted to access, U.S. military bases and other sensitive government facilities as often as one hundred times in recent years. These efforts to access U.S. military bases and facilities raise concerns about what these Chinese nationals are seeking to access and for what purpose,” wrote the lawmakers. [….]
“These reports of Chinese espionage activities on U.S. soil underscore the Committee’s deepening concerns. It is imperative that our government is fully apprised of the breadth and depth of these activities, which pose significant threats to our national security, and our military personnel,” continued the lawmakers.

Anyone with common sense and just a little understanding of the CCP knows what’s happening. The majority of the USG knows but doesn’t care because there’re on the receiving end of the pay off. I think they truly believe their CCP handlers when they’re telling them not to worry everything is on the up and up.
Bastards.
2024 will be like never before.
Things are getting dicey!
For good or bad. Just hold on.
El Centro is right by the border so he might’ve gotten lost from his group walking into Ca.
Do yall think that at the way stations for the Chinese down in Panama they stay long enough to teach them about how stupid and gullible the authorities are mandated to be ? I don’t even like thinking about what these people have in mind to do here.
Chinee are coming in like crazy. So, i am not sure if they are bussed to l.a. or whete. Not seeing other stories about it.
I think it was Ben Berquam that reported on the apartments dedicated to chinese down at the midway point. I’m sure they have some transportation of some kind
I think in the last 4 years, including this year, we have at least 2000 apts that have gone in. No joke. And the keep developing every open space.
The military is obviously not what we think it is.
1) It obeys no oath — or no oath that is known to the public
2) It obeys no Constitution — at least not ours
3) It defends lots of other countries
4) It very explicitly and obviously does not defend our country
5) When foreigners invade U.S. military bases inside the U.S., the military has no ability to deal with that problem, despite having a military budget that is larger than the next TEN largest militaries combined.
.
.
6) But if any American citizen stepped foot on one of their precious little bases without authorization, especially a white American, he would never be seen again.
Now if we put all of this together, there should be some obvious conclusions.
So it’s like a ‘Denial Test’, to determine how much denial we are in.
Our Commander In Chief is a traitor, too. Might have some effect.
True, they could all say they’re just following orders.
Bravely taking the moral high ground.
Just following orders, same as the Nazis said, at Nuremberg.
Wth!!!
No words for my disgust with the US military these days.

This is tricky.. So the girls killed the man last Oct. They only now were arrested and one of them, the 12 yr old was shot the other night. There’s a local news video explaining it.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/three-girls-ages-12-to-13-charged-in-fatal-beating-of-man-in-northwest-d-c/ar-BB1kLVHd?ocid=msedgntp&pc=LCTS&cvid=682cf
Three girls, ages 12 to 13, charged in fatal beating of man in Northwest D.C..
Three D.C. girls were arrested and charged with first- and second-degree murder Friday in connection with the fatal beating of Reggie Brown, a 64-year-old man in Northwest Washington in October, according to D.C. police. One girl was 12 and two were 13.
Brown’s body was discovered about 1 a.m. Oct. 17 in the 6200 block of Georgia Avenue NW. Authorities determined Brown died from blunt force trauma. D.C. homicide detective Harry Singleton testified that the victim was disabled, with a metal plate in his head and only two fingers on each hand.
District prosecutor Gabrielle LoGaglio told the judge that the girls did not know Brown and had stomped him to death.
All three girls were charged as juveniles. Two made their first appearance in D.C. Superior Court on Friday and another will appear in court Saturday.
District of Criminals, all of them. Build a wall and let loose feral pigs to enjoy lunch.
These feral girls probably would never have been charged if the one hadn’t gotten shot. Nobody gave a flip about the poor old dude that was stomped to death not to mention any other potential victims they might decide to beat to death.
Mexican mob drags woman suspected of killing eight-year-old girl out of police car and brutally beats her to death in front of cops
Horrific footage revealed the moment an angry mob dragged a suspected child kidnapper and killer out of a police car and beat her to death in the Mexican tourist town of Taxco.
The unnamed woman was being hauled away by police, after she had allegedly been caught on surveillance video helping a man dump the body of Camila Gomez Ortega who had disappeared Wednesday.
The villagers dragged the woman out of the police car and began wailing on her and tearing at her clothes.
‘We are fed up,’ a woman who identified herself as Andrea told the Associated Press. ‘This time it was an 8-year-old girl.’
‘This is the result of the bad government we have. This isn’t the first time this kind of thing has happened, but this is the first time the people have done something.’

An FYI about what is being said. This is the second article about the bridge collapse I’ve seen by Karl Denninger of The Market Ticker. He thinks the incident is nothing but an accident. He doesn’t mention the idea of spoofing to make the GPS seem like it was doing one thing when it was doing another, or cyber hacking (at least not in this article).

He doesn’t allow opposing viewpoints to be aired on his forum, either.
The last paragraph:
Thanks for the heads up.
Karl Denninger of The Market Ticker. <<<>>>His way or the highway. Asshole.
Denninger narrative rules. Smacks of Pravda News. Echo chamber rules.
^^^ Great way to stifle Freedom of Speech. Zero opposing views to consider, debunk, validate…
Karl lost me over a year ago for this very reason.
This is why most heavy drinkers should stop using alcohol before 45yo.
Brains can only be pickled for so long before they stop working properly.
“He doesn’t allow opposing viewpoints to be aired on his forum, either.”

No, he most certainly does not.
“Yes men” and disciples only.
My banishment from his site is just about now turned into a badge of honor.
Congrats! 👏
Accident or Accident staged look the same. Your a fool, a dupe or part of it when you accept this many accidents when this many accidents are far far out of the norm.
But the fuel, the fuel! The dirty fuel!
Nope.. not buying it. So far we have some schools in the area someone said had a problem with dirty fuel from that port facility and this one ship that went out of it’s shipping lane at the very point it would strike the bridge. Do we have other ships that at least went out of the shipping lane and grounded because of power loss due to dirty fuel? How many of those in the last year? What about the years before that? None? I’d think there’d be record of such if such was occuring.
Some good news in the COVID wars.
Paul Marik is a great guy – a truly admirable scientist. Many people lived because he pushed back on WHO’s bad medicine.
Now it’s certain that pigs are flying.
In formation.
LOL!!!
Makes me wonder if she was being threatened with a lawsuit.
I would bet that she was!!! Would not have happened, otherwise.
Something to think about!
“So Herod questioned him at considerable length; Jesus gave him no answer.” Luke 23
Jesus talked with Pilate. And with his executioners. And with the thief dying next to him. But he said nothing to Herod. Why?
I believe it was because Jesus did not recognize Herod’s throne. John the Baptist was beheaded for condemning Herod for taking his brother’s wife as his own. Herod was an illegitimate king according to the law (Lev 18:16)
Neither should we give honor to an illegitimate president.
A couple thoughts occur to me.
Jesus knew what must soon happen to Him. We don’t know what Herod’s thoughts were, but Jesus certainly knew his mind and thoughts, He knew what questions Herod would ask, and how Herod would react to every response Jesus might give.
It is possible that any reply Jesus gave would complicate the path Jesus needed to take, so the best answer to give Herod was no answer at all.
Even so, Jesus demonstrated repeatedly that He could give answers which His adversaries could not use against Him or to deter Him. It is not as if any man’s words could defeat Jesus’ words.
So I would say that by His silence He was fulfilling prophecy.
We know that the Ethiopian eunuch was reading from Isaiah (see Acts 8:27-28), this passage:
“He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.” (Isaiah 53:7, KJV)
.
And we know that passage is about Jesus, because when the Ethiopian eunuch read the passage in Philip’s presence, and asked Philip who Isaiah was talking about, Philip answered by preaching unto him Jesus:
“The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth: [33] In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth. [34] And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man? [35] Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.” (Acts 8:32-35, KJV)
Yes! And Christ KNEW that he was fulfilling prophesy – and did not retreat from it.
Clueless in St Louis. Hold business owners accountable for crime. (Shithole)
Evil.
There’s parts of the city that are pristine, and some great neighborhoods. It’s this crap people remember.
Businesses in the hoods would be smart to get out now before they’re decimated by lawsuits.
Whatever works.
FIB sucks.
Good for her even if she’s Palestinian symp…handled it well enough though she might of not admitted to sending any posts. As far as calling the FIB office. I don’t see a compunction for that. So unless she can afford a lawyer let FIB make the next move and they can start over again.
FIB returns, cell video at the ready. Prolly friends doing the same. Hope so.
And FakeBook so ready to turn over users messages. Not just a bunch of collected data which is bad enough but actual messages. If there is a class action lawsuit going after FakeBook for doing that she should join it. Fighting them by yourself would be too costly unless the lawyer was going to do it without charge. Then sure, because they just fingered her to LE for exercising her rights as a citizen.
Looking more and more to me like the armorer of the Alec Baldwin shooting is going to take the fall for the sacrifice, and Baldwin will ultimately skate.

Jury verdicts are rarely overturned. Her fate was sealed when she chose a jury trial instead of a court [judge] trial.
I suspect her fate was sealed when she accepted a studio/union/insurance carrier-suggested attorney, who advised her to go with a jury trial.
Baldwin in the background.
Have not heard more about this – just reporting…..
Texas AG Demands DEI Documents as Part of Probe Into Boeing Supplier
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Paxton for AG.
He would be great. I hope there would be someone comparable to take his place in Texas.
“diverse workplace improves product quality and /or ‘enhance[s] performance’ and/or ‘helps [Spirit]… make better decisions.”
This is the argument that all the DEI complying companies are adding to their literature. They have no proof that their version of Shang Ra La will happen. Seems just the opposite. If companies will not discriminate based on abilities then we are in for a world of hurt.
This is AMAZING. Paxton is beginning the long road back to CHINA-CHALLENGING QUALITY.
