Short Term, Food & Skills. Long term Gold, Silver & Land
Posted on 26 January 2026 by E.M.Smith
What my parents taught me about The Great Depression.
The video below contains a lot of the same things my parents taught me about surviving the great depression. THE major difference is that now our currency is NOT a “store of value” as it was then. Then it was made of precious metals. Gold, silver, and even the copper penny had inherent value. Now our currency (not money, as money has “store of value” where currency is just “medium of exchange”) has no inherent value. So saving “pretty pieces of paper” or worse, “bits in a digital wallet” is not saving anything of real inherent value.
Where I do not agree with the video is on the value of gold & silver. Yes, they are “less valuable” as barter goods in the middle of a currency colapse, BUT they store value long term for “the other side” of the event. For short term barter you want soap, beans & bullets, bandages and antiseptics, skills and food. But long term, bridging the collapse, land and precious metals carry value across time and space,
Still. this video has much of what my parents taught me about surviving the Great Depression.
Dad was on an Iowa Farm trading production of the land for survival. He was given one .22 rifle bullet and, as a teen age child, sent out to “get a rabbit” or other animal to eat. IF he came back with food, everyone ate well. IF he came back with the bullet, they ate from stores. IF he came back without the bullet, having shot and missed, he did not eat. Think about that. A single .22 round was worth food, or no food. Dad was a very good shot during W.W.II and I suspect this “training” was wide spread in the USA.
Mum impressed on me the meaning of food shortage. That a single tin of tuna and a couple of crackers might be 2 days of food. To know this and prepare for it. That a single silver dime could be a fortune, buy life. Dad was a Yank soldier and would send her silver dimes to save. He was pissed to find she had used them instead of saving them, but food now mattered more than value later.
This is why I have lots of jars, lots of bullets, canning skills, food preservation skills, tools & a garden (food forest in the process of becoming). And even a modest amount of precious metals. Because of what my parents (both of them) taught me about surviving the Great Depression across two different continents and half a world apart. One rural and one urban. both survivors.
19:22.
So what have I got? A very large home lot. Enough to feed us if needed. A set of skills that include a current bit of work on improving “what I can grow”. Presently I can grow “enough”, working on “what I want”. More bullets than I can use, but a very nice trade item. Some gold and silver (mostly in “accounts” not in hand, something to fix if things start to go bad…). Lots of jars, canning supplies, and the skill to use them, along with a food drier and a few gallons of salt. Fuel in several cars (enough to get through a few weeks of infrastructure failures). and a small library of “how to” and wisdom books. Probably going to add a welder (I already have the skill to use it) for a barter skill / service in addition to canning.
The point of all this?
- Bad Times happen. Over time and space. Repeatedly. Prepare for them.
- Have skills and the assets that matter. Store things of long term inherent value.
- It will come some day, but even if not in your lifetime, teach your children.
- It will come as long as politicians are stupid, or greedy, which they always are. This time is NOT different.
(Closing section above, my formatting and emphasis.)

Simply being Simply Saturday first
Because…why not
Well, that was simple.
Third!!!
At least you didn’t let your security certificate lapse. 😂
March 28! Put it on the calendar, and expect trouble!
What’s happening?
We have a security certificate update (automatic) scheduled. The last time our host did this, it didn’t complete, and basically shut down the site.
Oh…dear
I’ll make sure I’ve got all of the backup sites set.
Yes! Have bookmarks for them all!
A pleasant surprise!
That “Amish Hedge” video provides a lot of good advice and confirms what I’ve always thought about having gold in the midst of a crisis.
Yup. Metals have their place.
Lots of great advice in that video. Which is why I made a fuss about it in the opener. Did not post YT, Xs and the like. Simple, yet important message on this Saturday.
We are living in an emerging Golden Time.
At the same time, a return to the path Maggot was stumbling down, is likely. IMO.
Stockpiling barter material, has got to be the one thing, any body can do. IYes, imperative folks have trade skills, life skills, an ability to grow food…
But… Barter preps are simple. Spare cash, small amounts, adds up over time. No different than investing. Material stockpiled doesn’t grow as an immediate investment. Barter material future value, when times are dire, will deliver huge dividends.
During Covidiot and through the Maggot years, Slow Guy started stockpiling many of the items / areas mentioned in the video. Nearly all of it, easily stored long term. Remains “on the shelf.” Worth its “weight in gold”, WHEN SHTF…
The stuff I’ve drawn down, easily replenished.
The point of all this?
Above rant aside.
I really enjoyed that video.
One thing we can do at my house that is very valuable is brew, from scratch, beer and wine. And in a real pinch, we know how to build a still (which we would NEVER, EVER do, of course, lol; revenoors)
They are still here, just not as many. Moonshine is legal here so the state could tax it.
Of course. It’s always been about the taxes. I have bootleggers in my family tree.
My daughter in law is from West Virginia her family has some bootleggers in the family. She is from the Taylor family 🙂
Everyone needs distilled water!!!
When I grew up every family had a big very big jug of wine fermenting. The sound of glug -glug went though the living room where the wine was fermented.
I am sure that happens now only in the country site. One time I was at a great ant home and had to sleep in the living room sofa and the big glass jar was right next to it that was a sleepless night.
I have one in my house right now, lol!
Hope you make some good wine ? 🙂 I would do it but my husband is not as adventures as I am. My youngest son brews beer and it is very good. His BA was in biology so he knows what he is doing.
We do make some very good wine. We do elderberry, aronia berry, plum, and of course, grape. 🙂
That sounds great 🙂
He might also be a good candidate for Supreme Court Justice, as he presumably knows what a woman is.
He sure does 🙂
I agree! Upon reflection, I realized I have committed to the health and well-being of two kitties. So, I wondered if I should start canning sparrow bisque for them in case of the collapse of civilization. Yes, mine would probably just eat their outside catches of mice and birds and be successful “barn cats.” Still, I have taken on resposibility for their treats.
About time!
This guy, Tampon, is a horse’s ass. He talks as if he’s an equal power to the POTUS, and fancies himself as an important player in a revolution against the United States of America.
This clown deserves the biggest FAFO the Trump administration can give him.
he is a wind up puppet. i think he’s a chy-na controlled, ball-less, greedy asswipe. told what to say and when. he was guaranteed a safe haven if he sets things in motion. he tells lies, so he believes lies.
In other words, he’s a Democrat.
😇
well there’s typical democrats…under that…republican slimes…then 50 feet of crud…then timmy.
🤣🤣
👍 😂
And Timmy’s feet are hot, ’cause the next level down is Hell.
that’s why he’s losing weight…have you noticed? maybe it’s just the pix i saw.
A few nights in an unheated gulag would likely tame The Retard AND Frey’d. Along with their Ltguvner.
“he was guaranteed a safe haven if he sets things in motion.”
______________
Well that’s just it, nobody can guarantee him that.
He won’t even make it out of the country.
And there is no place in this world he can hide or be protected, at least no place he wants to be, where SEALS can’t get him.
Not even in a fortress compound surrounded by 300+ armed guards, as Nicky Maduro found out recently.
Sending the SEALS into British-Empire-owned Chinadia to drag Walz back across the border would be extra special.
Malignant narcissism on blatant display. It’s amazing.
AGREE!
Does he have a Gray Ghost? He doesn’t stand a chance without one.
https://www.battlefields.org/learn/biographies/john-singleton-mosby
I hope people will tune out the media fear porn. They splashed the protests yesterday all over the TV and web, only to find out it was about 2000 idgits and paid protesters. That is uniparty stall tactics. Very few of the idgits will die for Tampon Tim and the “resistance” against the boogeymen “Nazis”.
🖕 the media that pushes that BS.
Most of the “leaders” of the left are stale hippie types and converts to commie in addition to the criminals and illegals.
Head down, eye on the prize. Take cues from the VSGPOTUS.
Guessing, once DOJ/FIB break the funding code, people funding the unrest, will be arrested. Or so I hope. Likely some sources overseas. CCP come to mind.
Agitators will fade away, when money source dries up.
Then we are left with all of the assholes in Congress. A loathsome lot, they truly are.
Trump has their number. Decent replacement folks supported to primary them. Guessing Elon will plant millions to primary Uniparty. Guessing his contribution will be “eye popping.” Libtards will soil their Depends. Pravada News screech…Music to my ears.
I’ll do my part to primary Cornyn. Ted Cruz when his turn comes up. Local House rep, decent sort.
Trust Trump is my bottom line.
If they make it so the Demoncrats can’t cheat, they CAN’T win. That’s what I want.
It has been that way for decades but the uniparty RINOs got their share. It has always been and will always be about following the money. Cut it off and send the azzhats to prison, it slows down to a trickle.
Yep!
Unfortunately one of the major funders is an American living in China and another lives in the EU.
Maybe stop the money flow from the two funders? This money has to come through American banks?
And NGOs
Maybe abolish NGOs ?
Agree
Dems will be violent I believe like cornered dogs.
Agree
I think the next time the idiots are protesting on the side of the road here (they stay on the sidewalk, thankfully) I’m going to put signs on my car that say “I know you’re being paid to protest,” and just drive up and down between them.
Truth will hurt them hopefully they stay peaceful 😧
The ones here are so old I can definitely outrun any if they get uppity!
Funny love to see it 😂
“Everybody knows” is even better.
Like the song, by Leonard Cohen.
One person’s knowledge can be ignored or dismissed.
But if everybody knows, then the game is up 😁
These are the kids of hippies me think 🤔 My age was the hippie generation I remember it well. I knew someone who was the kid of hippies and she and her sibling were a mess but very intelligent. They could not cope with our culture and society.
Agree
Hubby asked if there is a political cartoon of a tampon waving a confederate flag yet.
Well, there is now!
😂
Hubby loves it!
So do I! Great Meme!!
That was quick 😂
Live on X!!!
Lol, thanks.
Does he want to hang for treason ? 🤔
He seems to be trying to stay just this side of freedom of speech while making his veiled threats.
He slipped up though by using the possessive “..I am going to have to say that to 👉MY folks👈…”
Remember people in his office are linked to the Signal Chats coordinating the riots.
i highly doubt that Tim knows anything about “Fort Sumter/John Brown”
Ol TimmyTard probably knows about this at least………..
The John Brown Gun Club is a leftist gun-rights group originally based in Kansas. The original club was active between 2002 and 2008, but it has since given rise to spinoff groups such as the Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club. The original club sought to militarize the white working class and spur it toward a social-justice revolution.* Gun Club chapters claim to promote racial equality and social justice while seeking to abolish the police and other perceived symbols of oppression. The Gun Club firmly supports members’ rights to bear arms for their own protection and as a safeguard against state overreach.* The Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club in Texas, in particular, has taken a hard anti-police position, casting all police as mass shooters who harass minorities and seek out excuse to unload their weapons.* The Puget Sound John Brown Club in Washington state is one of the most visible chapters. According to that group, the John Brown Gun Club seeks to disrupt fascists and fascist organizations and events. The Gun Club arms itself to defend against far-right violence and often appears as a security force at protests to protect against expected far-right violence.*
Thanks for the info, Molly. I did not know any of this that Tim probably knows. I have missed any far-right violence too.
LOL they sure made it seem like there were violent right wing gangs all over the place but oddly they never flexed their muscles..hmm maybe it was mostly a Dem propaganda campaign
Internal counts seemed to be under a dozen until Dems won elections then the talk soared but reality stayed steady.

Like
Svetlana Lokhova:
In February 2018, Fox News published explosive text messages between Mark Warner and lobbyist Adam Waldman. Waldman represented Oleg Deripaska – yes, the same sanctioned Russian oligarch at the center of so much of the “Russia collusion” nonsense.
What do the texts show?
-Warner desperately wanted a secret call with Christopher Steele, the discredited former MI6 officer who promoted the dossier.
-Warner explicitly told Waldman he did not want Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr (R-NC) to know about it.
-Warner instructed Waldman to set up the call with “no paper trail.”
-When Steele got cold feet, Warner pushed harder: “Important… this all stays strictly between us.”
Let that sink in. The ranking Democrat on the committee investigating Russian interference was secretly negotiating with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch to get off-the-record access to the author of the central piece of evidence in that investigation – and he wanted zero official record of it.
This is the same Mark Warner who spent years on television warning about “Russian disinformation” and the danger of back-channel contacts with Russians.
Yet here he was, running his own back-channel through Deripaska’s paid representative to the single most compromised source in the entire scandal.
Why the secrecy? Because Warner knew the dossier was collapsing. Steele had already been terminated by the FBI as a source for lying. His “primary sub-source”, Igor Danchenko, was later indicted for lying to the FBI. Warner didn’t want official scrutiny – he wanted to keep the narrative alive behind closed doors.
2. Warner Coordinated with Dan Jones, The Man Who Took Over Funding Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele and Kept the Hoax Machine Running After the Election
After Trump won, the Clinton campaign and the DNC stopped paying Fusion GPS and Steele. Enter Daniel Jones, former Senate Intelligence Committee staffer for Dianne Feinstein and close Warner ally.
Jones admitted under oath that he raised approximately $50 million , much of it from Silicon Valley billionaires (Reid Hoffman) and George Soros-linked groups, to continue the “research” into Trump-Russia ties through his organizations: the Penn Quarter Group and The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP).
What did Jones do with the money?
– Paid Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele to keep digging.
-Fed opposition research directly to the FBI, the State Department, and, crucially, to the Senate Intelligence Committee that Mark Warner was now helping lead.
-Ran a media influence operation that planted hundreds of collusion stories in major outlets.
Jones was in constant contact with Warner’s circle. Declassified materials and reporting show Warner’s team relied on Jones/Fusion material while pretending their investigation was pristine and independent. The final SSCI Russia report, released under Warner’s vice-chairmanship and later chairmanship, still cited dossier-sourced claims that had already been debunked.
This was not oversight. This was outsourcing a partisan smear operation to private actors and then laundering their “findings” through an official Senate committee to give them legitimacy.
3. Warner Oversaw a Committee That Leaked Like a Sieve and Protected the Hoax Architects
Under Warner’s watch, classified information from the Senate Intelligence Committee flowed to friendly reporters. Security director James Wolfe was caught leaking the Carter Page FISA application to his girlfriend Ali Watkins and others. Wolfe got a slap on the wrist, two months in prison, after the DOJ mysteriously dropped 18 U.S.C. § 641 charges that could have sent him away for years.
Who benefited from the leaks? The same media outlets pushing the collusion narrative Warner wanted alive.
When the Wolfe scandal broke, Warner’s response was not outrage at the breach, it was to attack reporters who exposed it.
4. Warner Repeatedly Lied to the Public and Pushed for Investigations He Knew Were Based on Garbage
Warner went on television countless times claiming the Senate Intelligence Committee had seen “incredible evidence” of coordination between Trump and Russia.
Yet when the Mueller Report found no such thing, Warner quietly pivoted to “counterintelligence concerns,”never admitting the central role the discredited dossier played in launching the entire probe.
He pushed for the Mueller special counsel within days of Comey’s firing , before the dossier’s problems were fully exposed.
He defended the FBI’s handling of the FISA warrants on Carter Page even after Inspector General Horowitz found 17 major errors and omissions.
This Was a Conspiracy , and Warner Was Near the Center
Someday, we’ll be treated to Mark Warner being indicted. Can’t happen soon enough.
If it is legally possible, Trump will ensure it happens.
That’ll be a great day for sure.
This explains WHY he’s come out of the woodwork crying about the Fulton Cty. FIB raid.
Dark to Light
👍
Agree
Warner is one of the most unsympathetic people I has seen. I do not know who would want to marry the clown except for money maybe.
AMEN. Clearly a horrible and corrupt human.
Make him take the Fifth, repeatedly.
“… Warner Oversaw a Committee That Leaked Like a Sieve and Protected the Hoax Architects
Under Warner’s watch, classified information from the Senate Intelligence Committee flowed to friendly reporters….”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
And there is the answer to WHY the Trump admin does NOT tell “ the Senate Intelligence Committee” a darn thing ahead of time!
That is a very intelligent policy for DJT to have.
Avoid the Intelligence Committee no matter what.
VSG indeed.
If they need a volunteer I would be very happy to pull the lever on this guy after he is convicted. He is a first class, lying, criminal, treasonous POS.
Love how he flipped the narrative to ‘picking on females’. But the illegally admitted are not largely gone.
He said “violent criminals,” which is his way to obfuscate.
I can’t lie, it pisses me off. I was promised the “largest deportation” in American history, and that’s what I want. ALL of the illegals, out.
I don’t give a shit how the left squeals and bitches about it. I don’t care if they have to double the ICE and Border Patrol numbers, I don’t CARE. I want them OUT.
There is no evidence that Pres. Trump was obfuscating. I think he said “violent criminals” because that’s what he meant. They are working to remove all of the illegals. They are starting with the most violent ones to get crime rates down and to protect people. They made an agreement in MN to “require the local government and law enforcement entities to cooperate with the federal government to identify and detain immigrants.” It’s part of a strategy, not a surrender.
Tom Homan: “We are not surrendering the president’s mission on immigration enforcement. Prioritization of criminal aliens does not mean we forget about everybody else. That’s just ridiculous.”
https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/tom-homan-ice-not-surrendering-153903510.html
There’s no evidence for this either, then:
“They are starting with the most violent ones to get crime rates down and to protect people.”
Or this:
“It’s part of a strategy, not a surrender.”
You just hope so. But you don’t know so.
Words mean things. “Violent criminals” isn’t what Trump said while campaigning.
The context for this:
“Tom Homan: “We are not surrendering the president’s mission on immigration enforcement. Prioritization of criminal aliens does not mean we forget about everybody else. That’s just ridiculous.””
is asking for more local enforcement of immigration law. Which is being denied. Frey’d said he wants no enforcement. So we’ll see.
The evidence for that is from multiple statements they have made. I posted one of them and hoped, in vain, that it would be heeded.
There is evidence for this from statements they have made.
I do know so because they have said so. I can’t help that you choose to ignore any evidence that points in the opposite direction from the negative spin that you place on events.
This is part of the overall strategy to rid the country of illegals in fulfillment of Pres. Trump’s goals and in fulfillment of campaign statements. The administration has said repeatedly that the goal is to rid the country of violent criminals first, then work down from there.
What part of “we are not surrendering the president’s mission on immigration enforcement” is so hard to understand? Nothing has changed in the mission. This is an ongoing effort and battle, and hurdles have to be met and dealt with. Circumstances will most likely change repeatedly over time.
My comment stands.
Trump would be an absolute idiot to target anything but the most violent and dangerous criminal illegals first. VSG is playing perfectly. He obviously knows what he’s doing.
What I find interesting is how stupid the Dems have been, in opposing Trump now. IMO it’s because he cut off the NGO money, and they are being forced into bad timings on their plays. But China could be pushing them, too. Dems are disposable pawns to China.
I think they are trying to double the ICE & border patrol numbers.
What I want is the company presidents & CEOs & CFOs who hire illegals in prison not to mention the politicians shielding them.
Yes they try to double ICE but congress dems and rinos want to hold back the finances needed. They are working against Trump’s and voters agenda . 😡
Focus is on the difficult ones, who are also making life more dangerous to Americans.
My take is, every illegal they encounter, IS picked up for processing.
As ICE/BP staffing ramps up, my take is the effort will expand.
Bonus, as freebies are cancelled, illegals will self deport, or become more obvious for culling out.
Agree
Yes I think Trump wanted the largest but was held up by Judges legal wrangling then rioters and Blue states not cooperating. The left fighting is real even Congress is brainwashed playing politics with the countries future when it comes to the invaders. The media was also on the wrong side.
I am trying to look what has happened the past year the violence the Judges with a unemotional clear mind.
I am surprised we got as many out of the country as we did, if everyone corporate we would have had more success. Reality we cannot get all out the people who want cheep labor do not want them out. People want cleaning ladies and gardeners and cheep building workers and so on and on….
The big problem is that those born here by illegals can bring in their families. People getting benefits like citizens do and sometimes more. Congress can stop it but they are not willing because there are people in the country who want cheep labor only thinking of their own pocketbook not of the affect it has on the country.
Good people do not break into a country break laws to do it. Maybe citizens need to get over that notion concerning illegal “so called” good people. They broke the law and ideally need to go. At least the boarder is closed now get rid of the visa and legal immigration until we can recover.
Getting everyone out would be ideal but unrealistic.
I agree with you.
Several thoughts on Kalbo farms —
First, build some raised beds. Maximum size should be 4′ across — 3′ is better. The pathways in between the boxes should be 24″ wide. You should not use treated lumber, because that will soak into the soil and end up in your food.
Second, get the book “Square Foot Gardening” — I think it’s in its fourth edition. Another worthy book is about companion plants.
What Square Foot Gardening does for you is not all about setting plants in space, it’s also about setting plants in time. Everyone starts out buying a pack of seeds and laying down an eight-foot row of radishes, because that’s what comes in a pack. The Square Foot way says to plant 9 seeds in grid A1 on March 1, then 9 seeds in grid B2 on March 8, then 9 seeds in grid C3 on March 15, then 9 seeds in grid D1 on March 22.
You might plant 16 marigolds in grid A2 on March 1. If the companion plants suggests it, you might plant both the marigolds and the radishes in the same grid square at the same time. You might end up planting zucchini (at the proper time) in F1, F2, F3, G1, G2, G3 and let it ramble.
When you look at an “Early Girl” tomato, it says “50 days indeterminate”, which means it will start producing in about 50 days and won’t stop until it freezes. A determinate tomato will produce the fruit from a particular vine all at once, after which the vine should be yanked and its gridspace reused.
This arrangement was once known as a “potager” or “kitchen garden”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_garden In times past, these were generally at ground level, but once you’ve done one with raised beds you will likely never go back.
Edible greens for salads are infamous for sprouting and being too small to eat; growing and being tasty; getting large and grainy/tough; and bolting — setting flowers and turning bitter. Time management is essential with these plants.
One of the things about companion plants is that there are several groups of plants that must be grown as far apart as possible.
One such group is fennel/dill. These plants will cross and you will have dennel and fill very rapidly. All the mints will likewise hybridize at the drop of a hat, and that includes lemon balm and various basils. These are tremendously worthwhile plants, but you must keep ’em separated.
There’s useful nuggets. DW has talked about raised beds, to grow vegetables.
“…once you’ve done one with raised beds you will likely never go back.”
DW will receive a copy of, “Square Foot Gardening” for her birthday this year. Along with train ride in Durango, Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods…
Thank you for the information. BTW. Betcha it would work great in NC.
Again, it talks about space….but the big improvements are about time.
Yes it works great in NC
Same here in East TN.
Same in OH 🙂
all of that is great until the chipmunks come and snap off your zucchinis when they’re 2 inches long and eat them!
It’ll be interesting here.
Lots of critters here. Certainly not the variety in your neck of the woods. Squirrels are everywhere. Along with a host of small creatures that wander in from the fields, couple small lakes, creeks… Rarely see them. Though they leave distinct markers. 😯
Those markers are left for making footprints, I presume. 😂
At Gardner’s Supply one can but cages to keep critters out or make once own ?
I buy covers fror my garden needs some for supper to keep the direct sun off greens and some for winter so herbs and some hardy greens survive.
My cats took care of that problem when I gardened in MA. I had a great mouser who even took out the blue jays who went for my blueberries.
What I really want is a fenced in garden with a second fence about 12 feet away with a nice BIG dog running around the outer area.
I do not get along with cats–and the coyotes would probably eat them. we have a chicken wire fence to keep out the bunnies, and usually the hawks work the driveway and scoop up the slower chipmunks but not this year.
we had fencing around the grapevines but last year, the deer decided to trample the uphill side and ate most of the tender leaves off the vines and ruined the whole lot. we’re taking down the rest of the fencing this spring and just surrendering…lol.
My cats live outside. They are working barn cats not pets. They get fed dry kibble and water as needed period
my son in law has loads of barn cats at his farms. they just wouldn’t last here.
That’s too bad. They are great critter-killers.
we have too many critters that would hunt and eat them…plus they’d tangle with the raccoons–and maybe get rabies…just not viable.
Barn cat have a hard life they too need their shots and need to be fed. I do know people who did neither the cats did breed and die. A well taken farm can live 20 years. I used to be involved with humane society and local cat club in my young ideal life before I had a reality check how pets were kept . I could not take it. 😥
my granddaughter wants to be a veterinarian so she follows the vet around the farm and brings all the cats she can catch for attention and shots.
That s great that is how it should be. Your granddaughter will make a great Veterinarian 🙂
she interned last summer and has a spot to intern next year as well.
I am sure you are proud of her as you should 🙂
she’s a farm kid…works part time weekends, on student council, FBLA, track and soccer teams and helps at the farms. in her free time, she snow boards and keeps track of the records for the family goat farm. i am SOOOOO PROUD of her!
Maybe she has some of the grit from Grandma ?
I would love to take some credit, but her mom (my “daughter”) was my husband’s child when we met. my son and his daughter were best friends at daycare. so she doesn’t have my genes, but she loves to paint and bake because of me!
Having grand kids is so much fun 😀
We used to give all our barn cats rabies shots. Then the blasted vets got greedy and insisted on a wellness checks and lots of shots and not just a rabies vaccine. So instead of a $5 shot my last cat cost me a couple hundred.
I know but if they are over ten my vet does not give any shots anymore they do not need it . Actually over ten i can harm them. Vets have become very expensive. $500 for a cat that was dying $ 180 to cremate her. My dog had a rash $400and on and on. I do not know how many people can afford pets any longer.
It’s funny. We get city people who move here and just don’t seem to be able to understand the concept of “working animals” that are NOT pets. That they are no different than a cow or a goat or a chicken.
We had an “animal rescue” years back that was KIDNAPPING and STERILIZING barn cats! The sheriff had to put a stop to it.
City people….sigh.
Kidnapping barn cats made me LoL.
The only people who would do that don’t have barns!
I knew a women every time they went on a couple of days vacation the cats were gone. I wonder if someone stole them out of the barn? Personally did not like how sick the kitten used to look with crusted eyes no medical treatment for them. I distant myself quickly from the person because if one is so callus to an animal is callus to people.
The crusted eyes may not have a medical fix. I have been fighting the problem for years. My calico went to 2 different vets and we were never able to get it to clear up.
She would let us medicate the eye and we tried everything. Now I wonder if it is the darn Chem trails.
Some cats have problems when they get older. I have one who has in one eye no tear duct.
I have known farmers who sterilized many of their cats even though they were working cats because they valued them and wanted a healthy group of cats. They kept one or two cats for a litter then sterilized them. Personally I applaud that. They are God’s gift for us. I would not make a good farmer was close to animals all my life . Have lived in county as a kid have seen pigs being killed and my father hunted. Have plugged chickens as a teenager made me sick but no choice..
I value life that is why I was over 15 years a vegetarian. Still today have problems prepping a chicken or turkey. I play mind games with myself to handle meat. If I lived alone would go back to vegetarianism (sigh …… )
I get too attached to them, too. I raised a couple of calves when I was young. I used to ride them. Then they were sent away, not to “a farm,” but to a butcher. I was devastated. Farm life is not for the weak, for sure.
The first time I went to a hog-killing and butchering day, I was about 12. I didn’t eat pork for a couple of years.
I had the same reaction seeing a pic scream in terror being butchered The know they are being killed. What really did it seeing a documentary in the sixties on slaughter houses how animals are being killed. The cruelty of humanity does surprise me over and over.
A well fed cat is a good mouser. Dry keebles is good and enough for a mouser because they eat what they catch. Also a cat that is well fed does not have to eat what it catches and does not pick up diseases just kills. Female cats are best male cats are lazy.
Just my theory had some outside cats who were stays did not like indoors until they were past 10. My indoor cats get some kibble but also cooked chicken and lamb and cheese. I cook extra meat for all my pets. Dog eats also carrots and blueberries in addition to kebble and chicken , lamb and beef.
They get kibble morning and night and are nice and fat.
Fake owls whose eyes light up at night from small batteries help. Attach with wire to a wood frame so they swing in the breeze a foot or two off the ground. Most varmints and deer tend to avoid owls. Add in the chicken wire.
We also had a bird nesting problem around our decks, downspouts, newspaper slot in the mail box, etc. Bird poop and nests everywhere. Laid out a couple of rubber snakes in spots they could see including the box. That also works in garages, sheds, etc.
Dey gone!
I wish i could show you our “owl” before we chucked it. The swallows wanted to build nests in the wood shed (think carport type metal building). We had a solar light on the ceiling and a motioned activated owl hung from a small metal chain. they pecked and pecked at that owl’s head till it came down from the ceiling. when we found it, it was covered in bird poop.
😂
nature finds a way!
I let birds nest my husband feeds birds. I guess depends where they nest?
A deer fence is good.
Solution:
Cats.
Good info, coothie. Been using raised beds for decades. Used landscaping blocks and it butts into our home. Our property is on a slope, so it drains well
Raised beds and orientation to the sun are the way to go. Some edible plants do better in partial shade or morning sun while others, like tomatoes, thrive in full sun and heat. The masonry walls of our home that the gardens butt into become warm in the afternoon sun, which warms the ground and allows us to plant early as well as extend the yield into the cooler fall. That’s where the tomatoes and peppers are planted.
Timing is everything as in most all of life’s endeavors.
I have been feeding our family and neighbor friends all the tomatoes they want from a 6′ x 6′ raised bed where I usually only plant 3 or 4 seedlings every year and plant them about 2-4 weeks apart depending on the anticipated weather models. I plant a smaller bed behind it with peppers most years.
If I was planting for just our family’s consumption I would change it up and add a few different veggies or herbs. Total combined space usage – about 60 SF.
You can grow a LOT of tomatoes in a small space! I pull about 120-150 pounds of tomatoes out of two beds that are about two by seven feet.
And one of the cool things about tomatoes is they like to grow in the same space over and over, so you don’t need to crop rotate them. Just amend the soil with quality manure, some calcium (I grind eggshells for that) and some organic fertilizer and you’re good to go!
Banana peels for potassium too. Wood ash if you burn nothing but wood works a lot better than lime.
Lime is something I don’t need for my soil. Too alkaline already!
I know people who put a banana peel in every tomato hole they dig to plant in.
All good stuff. I have some raised beds, too. But one caveat; in a cold climate, raised beds soil gets cold faster.
Also, indeterminate tomatoes get a lot bigger than determinate, because they not only keep fruiting, they continue to vine. Mine sometimes grow to eight feet tall! Determinates are good for container gardening.
Another trick I use for some plants is putting them in five-gallon food-safe buckets. You can get these from restaurants sometimes. Oil and other stuff comes in them. Drill 8-10 holes in the bottom with a big drill bit for drainage. I grow eggplant, bush cucumbers, new potatoes, bell or hot peppers, and salad tomatoes in mine. You can put them anywhere there’s sun. If you have a barrel planter or two, grow a cabbage in each. Purple cabbages are even ornamental!
Great advice; thanks.
Good morning everyone.
Another scam……
what’s going to happen to those people if they ever do need services from medicare?
So fucking fix it!
Again, I don’t care if my tax money is used to hire another 20,000 lawyers to pursue the fraud. Just go to every conservative legal college in America (there have to be a couple, surely) and offer graduates top-dollar to prosecute fraud.
Some people didn’t know they were on hospice until they needed “real” medical care. That’s a matter of life and death. I have no doubt that people have died prematurely because of this.
Isn’t this the truth

My guess is that they’re trying to teach kids how to tell time on clocks that aren’t digital. I’ve read that it’s an issue now. They had probably been covering it in class. But yes, the question was vague. It should have specified analog vs. digital.

ACTION ITEM: Judicial Corruption
Judge Blocks Voter Verification
Lex Greene
Jan 31
Democrat District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, appointed to the bench by Bill Clinton in 1997, attempts to block efforts to make certain that only legal American Citizens are voting in U.S. Elections. In reviewing her ruling, I find that the basis for her ruling is in error, likely by intent, with political purpose.
· “U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly said the Constitution gives states and Congress, not the president, the power to set rules for federal elections.”
The problem with this foundation for her ruling is the fact that Trump’s EO did not “set any new rules” or create any new laws for U.S. Elections. It has always been illegal for any non-citizen to vote in U.S. Elections under laws long established by Congress.
To vote in U.S. federal, state, and local elections, you must meet the following requirements:
Trump’s EO pertained only to enforcement of the laws long established by Congress. Therefore, the underlying foundation for District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s ruling today is without any legal foundation at all.
Despite many unconstitutional past practices by other Oval Office occupants, who used EO’s as if the Executive Branch is the legislative branch, and past court practices of “inventing laws from the bench” as if they are the legislative branch, Trump’s EO makes no attempt to create any new law or new rule, other than to order the enforcement of existing law.
Also the US Constitution DOES give the federal government some rights when it comes to federal elections.

Hi there. Former Intel guy who is also a former law enforcement guy here.
If Gabbard is on scene, it means that the FBI has found a foreign/counterintelligence nexus to the investigation into the 2020 election in Georgia; otherwise they’d be reporting to Bondi and DOJ.
Gabbard was very likely able to discern the relevant gist from the documents recovered because she already knew what they contained before she ever arrived.
Let me explain a bit further.
To get a search warrant, a Federal Magistrate—one with no ties to Trump, and in fact a resume filled with Legal Aid and Public Defense—found probable cause that evidence of a crime existed in the narrow scope of what was being requested via search warrant. Considering how not-narrow of scope that warrant actually turned out to be, and Gabbard’s involvement, we can deduce several things.
First, that there is already a substantial case that some serious crime occurred and that this is not anywhere near the first evidence they’ve collected. Getting such a warrant from such a Magistrate would be essentially impossible otherwise; we can’t even get a similarly situated Magistrate to provide the pro forma signature on a Complaint related to Don Lemon committing several felonies on public video, with numerous admissions and confessions. Let’s not pretend here.
Second, that the foreign nexus has probably already been getting plugged away at with the foreign-oriented intelligence apparatus for some time. It is probable, I’d hazard a guess, that a FISA warrant or two have been employed.
Gabbard already knew exactly what they were looking for and she wanted to be on scene for its recovery.
TL;DR — Somebody, somewhere, someday soon is completely f*cked.
I’ll save conjecture for a follow-on post.

@JTAlexander_
Jan 29
Before I offer conjecture, I want to add just a little more context to why my POV has any use to anyone else.
I was an intelligence/counterintelligence guy for more than a decade before becoming a lawyer and prosecutor. I’ve worked in connection to the FBI many times. I’ve worked on dual CI/LE missions and operations.
As far as my historical thoughts on the 2020 election, they more or less boiled down to “It doesn’t have to be a grand conspiracy. Four separate groups in four separate cities all getting the idea to dump some fake ballots; that’s all it took, and thats what the evidence indicates happened.”
I was never big into the Dominion or electronic vote tabulation theories because none of that would have been necessary to accomplish the goal. It also wouldn’t account, in my assessment, for the lack of a repeat in 2024.
So, that said—
Conjecture:
Gabbard was already working on something related to this by August; she’d given some offhand comments during a Cabinet meeting with the President when he was talking about burn bags not getting burned.
Maybe they’re talking about burn bags at the election office in Georgia, but I’m not convinced. I’ve worked elections (not in Georgia) as a staffer, and we never had burn bags. Nothing ever got destroyed. But who does use burn bags? All of the intelligence agencies, like the FBI, NSA, DIA, CIA, etc.
I suspect that something was found in the intelligence community’s possession substantiating a foreign nexus to election irregularities in Fulton County, Georgia. I suspect that FISA warrants and active Operations have pulled that thread and established an extensive record of evidence. I suspect that this is later into the investigation, rather than earlier.
I promise, there is no tendency I hate more from rightwing influences than “Tick Tock” BS, but I think this might be legit. This looks like something significant
Hmm Another intelligence officer trying to dimmish the importance of electronic rigging in elections.
The reality is that it is the easiest and least noticeable way, and you need only a few people.
First how can you do a massive fraud without electronic manipulation. Remember Trump got +17% = +/- 11 million votes more than his first Elektion.
They only found out that they needed more at election night. That is why it took another week to declare the Autopen the winner.
Second the lack of repeat in 2024 is not due to a lack of trying.
It has to do with the ‘To Big To Rig’ strategy of Trumps team, as well as a large group of people monitoring any election irregularities.
It however effected the down ballots and probably 30 seats, if not more, in the House alone are properly fraudulent.
It seems that ignoring the electronic factor would keep us, and investigators, from getting to the root of the problem. Continuing to use machines will only result in more fraud because the Left will always find a way.
Fraud is the root of the problem. There are to many ways to achieve fraud and is a different issue.
This fits in with reports about Five Eyes being involved.
Pres. Trump has been giving hints about this for a number of months, so I think they’ve had information for a while.
R-Cons are a loathsome lot.
Typos are becoming perhaps the most important thing to include in one’s writing. A few, misplaced commas, are the Voight-Kampff of our day.
https://xcancel.com/LuxImperii/status/2017484307447877868#m
Good analysis.
Misplaced punctuation can change the entire meaning of a sentence. I know of one example (which I won’t name) that has resulted in an untrue story that people swear is true because they place the punctuation where they want it to go rather than where it belongs.
But I think that X comment is saying that using misplaced commas can become a “tell” when trying to detect Ai-generated material from human-generated material. (That assumes that people are able to recognize when commas have been misplaced.)
despicable!

BLACK ROBE CORRUPTION: Michigan Judge and Three Co-Conspirators Accused of Looting Hundreds of Thousands from Incapacitated
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/black-robe-corruption-michigan-judge-three-co-conspirators/
Another bombshell indictment has ripped the mask off America’s so-called “justice system,” and this time the rot allegedly runs straight through the black robe.
Federal prosecutors have charged four Detroit-area insiders, including a sitting Michigan judge, in what authorities describe as a years-long scheme to loot incapacitated individuals and their estates, stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from people the court was supposed to protect.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, the defendants are:
Nancy Williams, 59
Attorney Avery Bradley, 72
Judge Andrea Bradley-Baskin, 46
Dwight Rashad, 69
Bradley-Baskin is the daughter of Avery Bradley and currently serves as a judge on Michigan’s 36th District Court.
Bradley-Baskin is a district judge on Michigan’s 36th District Court.
Investigators said Nancy Williams owned Guardian and Associates, an agency that was appointed as a fiduciary by the Wayne County Probate Court for incapacitated wards in over 1,000 cases.
Avery Bradley is an attorney, who, along with his daughter and fellow attorney Bradley-Baskin, operated a law firm that often represented Guardian and Associates in Wayne County Probate Court and worked in that court.
Dwight Rashad operated a series of group homes and residential facilities for elderly individuals, including wards, who needed support and care.
“We respect the authority that covers a black robe. This state judge and her cronies allegedly abused that high honor for personal gain by preying on the needy protected by the court. This would be a grievous abuse of our public trust,” said U.S. Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon.

Yup. Absolutely necessary.

Both of them missed the census part. Nobody’s perfect.
agreed. but the AMERICAN PUBLIC –you know the people Congress is supposed to SERVE–DO NOT WANT ILLEGALS HERE PERIOD.
his amnesty is a slap in the face to every constituent in the country.
they will still use up housing, schooling, medical, and take jobs from Americans.
this is not an ANSWER.
^^^^ This.
They steal resources, jobs, homes, vehicles, lives.
Be a real immigrant. Walk in the front door with proper vetting. Assimilate. Do something good for America, just like our ancestors and we do now.
All of the rest gotta go. They are criminals.
agreed. looking for something they did not earn!
Illegals complicate that, Affordability, thing.
That has already been tried.
This will only increase the likelihood of more foreigners trying to jump the border.
The biggest mistake Reagan did, is to give illegal aliens the right to stay.
Yup. Been tried a couple times. Always fails. Illegals OUT. Only answer.

Your Depression stories remind me of my Nanny (that’s what I called my Dad’s mom) who raised me. She lived through the Depression, and was one of the most self-sufficient people I have ever known,
When my Dad grew up, he was so tired of being so poor that it totally changed him. He grew up eating whatever they could shoot, too, so he only ate beef, seafood, pork or chicken. One time I went to a fancy restaurant and told him about it. I told him I had Hasenpfeffer, and what that was. He pitched such a fit, lol! He wouldn’t have me eating that “white trash” food.
I used to watch him light matches at 30-50 feet with a .22. He was a great shot. Had to be, as you say, to eat.
I learned all kinds of skills from my Nanny. And I use them to this day.
I had a step grandfather who was skilled like that, except he kept eating the squirrels and rabbits with red eye gravy until he died. He taught me to shoot with his 22. I shot my first squirrel at age 12. His hunting dog brought it back to us. I passed on eating that stuff, but probably would have if hungry enough. 😀 He taught me a few construction skills since he built their home on the side of a VA mountain with the help of a buddy.
My paternal mamaw was resourceful like your Nanny.
Lol, my Dad would only eat margarine, not butter. It had to be “better,” because it came from the store.
My Dad found his poverty growing up very painful, I think. He wanted to be like “everybody else” so bad. He was a great basketball player, but practice was at six am, he didn’t have a car, and the school bus didn’t run that early. He got up every practice day and RAN to school. And you know how far it was? TEN MILES.
Dad dropped out of high school in the 11th grade, and retired a millionaire. He was determined not to live as he grew up. I got my “first car” before I could drive. I was thirteen, but I had a car.
Excellent opener, KK. Great start to hunkering down here in east TN.
We are at 6″ and a fine, powder snow is still coming down with a temp of 16 degrees. The temps stay below freezing for several days. Mid week before we return to the 40’s.
Gatlinburg is at 10″ and still coming down. Ober Gatlinburg will be going nuts with skiers on the slopes just as they will at Sugar Mountain and others in western NC. Ideal conditions.
Wifey has a big pot of homemade chili underway. Our great power company shows only 28 customers out of power in three rural locations our of about 227K customers. All is well here, stay home, and fantasize we are on Greenland.
I have a whole ham sliced up for sandwiches and also the cheese to go with it. Just baked 2 pans of lasagna (It can be eaten cold) and cooked a bunch of chicken wings, legs and thighs that also can be eaten cold. A dozen boiled eggs, & 3 dozen uncooked.
That does not include the canned chicken, tuna, salmon, sardines and crackers I always have on hand as well as dried fruit and quick oats.
Great planning.
DW does much the same. Cooks lots of stuff in batches. Freezes for future use. Power goes out, ready to go. Can be eaten cold or warmed.
Canned stuff available. Dry goods.
Basic plans at the ready. Tailored and/or expanded to the weather or disruption(s) that may pop up.
100% NOT waiting for the government OR expecting local super market to be stocked.
Nice report. Seems folks are doing better with these storms.
As posted somewhere, Trump has largely stopped coal plant shutdowns, so reliable energy is available AND abundant.

Verse of the Day for Saturday, January 31, 2026
✟
“And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.”
Deuteronomy 6:5 (KJV)
COMMENTARY FOR DEUTERONOMY 6
A persuasive to obedience. (1-3) An exhortation to obedience. (4,5) Obedience taught. (6-16) General precepts, Instructions to be given to their children. (17-25)
1-3 In this and the like passages, the “commandments” seem to denote the moral law, the “statues” the ceremonial law, and the “judgments” the law by which the judges decided. Moses taught the people all that, and that only, which God commanded him to teach. Thus Christ’s ministers are to teach his churches all he has commanded, neither more nor less, #Mt 28:20|. The fear of God in the heart will be the most powerful principle of obedience. It is highly desirable that not we only, but our children, and our children’s children, may fear the Lord. Religion and righteousness advance and secure the prosperity of any people.
4,5 Here is a brief summary of religion, containing the first principles of faith and obedience. Jehovah our God is the only living and true God; he only is God, and he is but One God. Let us not desire to have any other. The three-fold mention of the Divine names, and the plural number of the word translated God, seem plainly to intimate a Trinity of persons, even in this express declaration of the unity of the Godhead. Happy those who have this one Lord for their God. It is better to have one fountain than a thousand cisterns; one all-sufficient God than a thousand insufficient friends. This is the first and great commandment of God’s law, that we love him; and that we do all parts of our duty to him from a principle of love; My son, give me thine heart. We are to love God with all our heart, and soul, and might. That is, 1. With a sincere love; not in word and tongue only, but inwardly in truth. 2. With a strong love. He that is our All, must have our all, and none but he. 3. With a superlative love; we must love God above any creature whatever, and love nothing but what we love for him. 4. With an intelligent love. To love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, we must see good cause to love him. 5. With an entire love; he is ONE, our hearts must be united in his love. Oh that this love of God may be shed abroad in our hearts!
Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
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.

Who have heard His Word – and abide in it;
Who – through His Spirit – simply intuit!
Faith – is a leap into the unknown – unseen;
It requires obedience – pure and pristine;
When the voice of the Spirit – guides the heart;
The unforeseen fear will quickly depart!
Faith is belief – the assent of the mind;
To the truth of another – from behind;
Resting on the authority – of the Spirit;
Judgment less evidence – you will merit!
Faith is relief – the release of the mind;
God’s revelation of the highest kind;
Confidence comes – from the mind of God;
A wondrous gift – to whit we are awed!
Belief in the scriptures – is the basis of faith;
The being and perfection of God – is a wraith;
Through Jesus Christ – and His revelation;
Our faith in Him – brings this elevation!
Faith is confidence – in the promises of God;
Without which through life – in fear – we will trod;
The truthful declarations – in His Holy Word;
Are accurate acclamations – be rest assured!
Faith is not speculation – it is truth;
A gift from God – He granted in youth;
With certainty in what – God has declared;
Inspired by Him – cannot be impaired!
Faith is correctness – assurance of heart;
That God will uphold us right from the start;
Adherence to the truth is beyond reproach;
With sincerity – honesty – above approach!
If you have faith like the mustard seed;
You will not sin – in word or in deed;
Faith will uphold you – through turmoil and pain;
With confidence – in His Word – you will gain!
Step forward in faith – leave fear behind;
Let faith be an asset – to body and mind;
Trust in His Word – and His veracity;
Let His grace increase – faith capacity!

HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY !!! ❤️❤️❤️
This is a really interesting article about the use of mockery in politics all the way back to the Sons of Liberty. It compares today’s memers to them.
“First came the tolling of bells: the First Church of Boston, then the Second Church, then smaller ones joining in, the sound rolling through Boston like a summons. The streets cleared quickly, barefoot boys darting to claim the best vantage points. It was summer, and the air stank of old straw laid down to soak up urine and horse droppings, mixed with the sharp tang of fresh fish hauled in from the harbor that morning. Inside inns and taverns, conversations fell away as people shifted toward windows mysteriously clean for the first time in weeks.
British officers and soldiers quieted. Something was happening, and they didn’t think they’d like it.
The mourners came first, riding black-plumed horses slowly down the sloping streets, three abreast, filling the narrow lane. The riders were dressed entirely in black, holding torches aloft despite the bright afternoon sun. Children ran ahead and alongside the procession, handing out black ribbons to anyone still standing in the street, darting inside to hand them to tavern patrons. Many tied them on arms or wrists, grinning. They were already in on the joke.
Now came the star of the show. Behind the mourners came a coffin, draped in black cloth and borne by six men, also dressed in black. On one side was painted Liberty. On the other, Freedom.
A man in a wide-brimmed hat walked before it with a proclamation, calling out solemnly: “Oyez, oyez. All bow their heads and mourn the death of that which we hold most precious, sacred Liberty, mercilessly slain by the King’s men on this day of our Lord.”
Redcoats scowled. Colonials howled. The point being made by the infamous Sons of Liberty was very clear.

It goes on. It’s good stuff.
That is great stuff. Assuredly it was repeated AND became common practice.
Bolstered the Patriots morale.
Good stuff.
Ridicule can be a very effective weapon.
In this age of social media it is memes, PDT giving names to leftists, etc.
How it’s done:
Full text:
GM Britain In India, the practice of Sati was a custom that saw widows burned alive on their husbands funeral pyres. This awful tradition continued for centuries until Britain banned it in 1829. Hindu priests protested: “It’s our religion!” The British commander in India, General Charles Napier, replied; “Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs.” The practice stopped.
That is BS.
Sati was not practiced widely, and only rare instances were recorded. It was also voluntary.
It was only controversial in Britain at the time, because the missionaries wanted to evangelies the Hindus especially in Bengal, which was at that time, controlled by the East India Company The company did not want these missionaries interfere with their actions, which were usually more like the Mafia today than actually simple trading of goods.
So, the Missionaries started a public campaign in England for the English government to gain control of the region, instead of the Company and siting the ‘eradication’ of Sati as a reason, which at the time wasn’t practice very much and wasn’t really a problem for the overwhelming majority of widows.
To understand the practice of Sati, see this from Grok (I know, I know it is AI, but is actually a good summary)
THANKS! I was aware that the British East India Company was killing millions of Indians and finally the public outcry was enough to get the Company killed by the British government.
I think even one “cooked widow” is one too many.
YMMV.
“It began mainly among elite warrior (Kshatriya/Rajput) and royal classes, often linked to ideals of devotion, honor, or inheritance concerns.”
_____________
As ever, just follow the money.
So-called ‘ideals’ of ‘devotion’ and ‘honor’ were the cover, because it would be despicable to do such a thing over filthy lucre.
But if they dress it up in ‘devotion’ and ‘honor’, then they can pretend it’s all good.
There is no new thing under the sun.
What a stupid, indefensible custom.
So a husband and father dies.
The mob burns the surviving wife, for no articulable reason at all, just because they’re stupid &^%$wits.
And the children are now orphans.
A society like that doesn’t deserve to survive, the British were actually right to subjugate it.
edit: apparently there is more to the story, just saw eilert’s post below.
Just for cuppa covfefe:
Thanks… good one!

And Hegel fan Fiorina’s faulty phrase “perception is reality” comes to mind 🙂 or 😡
Brave search:
“Carly Fiorina, former CEO of Hewlett-Packard, famously stated, “Leadership is a performance. You have to be conscious about your behavior, because everyone else is,” a sentiment often linked to the broader idea that perception is reality.”
_____________
This is why women should never lead companies they didn’t create.
She has no idea what it is to lead, because she has no idea what it is to create.
She is a child, who thinks leadership is a game of acting.
This is how you destroy entire companies, built on decades of hard work.
And entire nations, built on centuries of hard work.

https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/svg/1f6a8.svgNEW: The REAL reason Thomas Massie’s new wife’s social media was scrubbed! She is a woke member of the LGBTQ+ cult!
When Massie announced his marriage to Carolyn Moffa, it was noticed by many that she had scrubbed her digital footprint, but she didn’t get everything, because receipts from her ex-girlfriend’s social media are still available.
A lot of us noticed a shift to the left from Thomas Massie since President Trump resumed office: his voting record, his donors & constant DNC mouthpiece media tours. Now it all makes sense.
He’s currently carrying on & accusing his opponent, Ed Gallrein, of being a DEI instructor, but never shows the full screenshots. He wants everyone to believe his challenger, who is an actual Conservative, is the one who is woke. Because, surely, it is definitely not the guy who takes money from the Gates family, woke Squad donors or DSA members.
Thomas Massie shouldn’t throw stones when he lives in a glass house, & chose to marry a woke LGBTQ+ cult member. He arrogantly stated on Jimmy Dore recently that if there was dirt to find on him, it would’ve been found by now.
Also, why was the new wife’s Taylor Swift performance scrubbed from this bar’s social media, when videos of every single show performed there are still up? If the flyer for her show is an indicator of why her socials & bar performances were scrubbed, then I can imagine why they had it all removed before the big announcement.
I don’t know how Massie can stand it.
He’s literally destroying his own life over this crazy woman. Looks like she has the Prozac eyes.
And apparently there is no one in his social circle who can talk him back from the ledge.
I’ll guess the marriage won’t last 5 years, and she will take everything he has.
you wouldn’t like my answer…lol

For those interested in a good explanation of what this drug does to your biology: Video Link below
https://youtu.be/0snUlg4I-bg
Good info. It goes into biological information that I won’t remember, but it explains what happens to the body and how the drug alters the natural functions of the body. I watch in mild horror 😱 as people are injected with substances and take drugs into their bodies without realizing that they’re going to have an effect. If one doesn’t know what effect a drug might have, then for me, taking it is a gamble with my health.
There are situations where a drug might be necessary despite its possible side-effects; but in the case of the COVID shots and the weight loss drugs, their effects were not known or proved when they were first introduced. And to the extent that bad effects were recognized, people chose to ignore them. One of the side-effects of the weight loss drugs is permanent stomach paralysis. If I wanted to lose weight, I would rather go on a “starvation” diet than risk that.
Generally all you have to do is cut the carbs (sweets & starches) Fats work very nicely at killing hunger. My cuppa with heavy whipping cream works just dandy.
A couple other things. Most Americans no longer get enough iodine, worse, at least for a while, bromine replaced iodine in American breads and that really trashes your thyroid.
Second OTC pain killers esp Ibuprofen muck up your stomach and will make you feel hungry.
HE NAILED IT: “ICE just drove by. They came and arrested somebody. Nobody blew whistles, nobody boxed them in, and most importantly, nobody got hurt. You ever notice how they leave you alone if you leave them alone?”

Clinton Contempt Vote Set for Next Week: Will Justice Be Served?
Bill and Hillary Clinton’s fate for ignoring congressional subpoenas is now in the hands of the House of Representatives.
House Republican leaders plan to vote this coming Wednesday on contempt of Congress resolutions against the former first couple, who refused to answer subpoenas by the House Oversight Committee regarding their dealings with disgraced financier and serial sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“The Rules Committee will meet at 4 p.m. Monday to consider the resolutions for the floor,” Politico reported Thursday.
Several Democrats on the Oversight Committee joined with the Republicans to support advancing the resolutions to the House floor — particularly regarding the former president, who used Epstein’s infamous “Lolita Express” private jet for a philanthropic tour of Asia and Africa after his presidency.

Reports are emerging on social media that Paul Brown, the FBI Special Agent in Charge at the Atlanta Field Office, was “forced out of that job earlier this month,” according to MSNOW’s Ken Dilanian.
According to MSNOW, Brown “was forced out this month after questioning the Justice Department’s renewed push to probe Fulton County’s role in the 2020 election” after “expressing concern” about “unsubstantiated allegations of voter fraud” in Fulton County.

This complaint Missouri just brought against the federal government challenging the constitutionality of counting illegal aliens in the census marks at least the 2nd pending case on this matter.
It is hugely consequential.
Like so many horrible things, the plaintiffs point back to the Carter administration for how we ended up in a place where House seats are apportioned, electoral college votes are divvied up, and legislative districts broadly are drawn to effectively represent millions of people who should not be in our country

Supreme Court will hear birthright citizenship case on April 1
The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on April 1 in the challenge to President Donald Trump’s efforts to end birthright citizenship – that is, the guarantee of citizenship to virtually everyone born in the United States. That case, Trump v. Barbara, is one of eight cases scheduled during the court’s March argument session, which runs from March 23-25 and again from March 30-April 1. The justices will also hear oral arguments in an important election law case, Watson v. Republican National Committee, on March 23.

JUST IN: ICE Buys $70 MILLION Warehouse the Size of 7 Football Fields to House Illegals in Phoenix, Arizona (VIDEO)
The Department of Homeland Security has purchased a massive $70 million building in the Phoenix, Arizona area to house illegal aliens awaiting deportation.
This comes as the department plans to “draw down on the number of people” from ICE and CBP stationed in Minnesota, Border Czar Tom Homan announced earlier this week following discussions with Minnesota officials.
The 418,000-square-foot shipping warehouse in Surprise is roughly the same size as seven football fields, 12 News reports.
The city said in a statement, “While we do not participate in ICE operations, we also cannot interrupt or prevent their operations.”

There’re also looking at a 440,000 sq ft warehouse on Orlando FL.
Hopefully there’re looking for more locations. Round em up, and ship em out.
It’s one concrete sign that they plan to continue to purge the country of illegals.👍🏼

Now, when the alien invaders say “Hey, where you takin’ us?”, ICE can say it’s a SURPRISE 🤣
If they would feed and house me, I would legit volunteer to work there doing administrative work or cooking in the kitchen. I don’t care. We need to get these illegals deported, period.
Well Surprise, Surprise, Surprise…
(couldn’t resist… 🙂 )….
No doubt there will be a lot of surprised people… they had their chance to self-deport, so now they get to, erm, process the FO branch…

That ought to go without saying, shouldn’t it?
I mean, if they didn’t, then they wouldn’t have been able to obtain a warrant to raid the property and seize evidence.
I just watched the Doug in Exile video highlighting what the geniuses on The View are saying: “Why isn’t Trump concentrating on his win in 2024? Why look at 2020?” I think Kash needs to tell everyone there was probable cause so it might eventually sink in that there is some “there” there.
Best news.
Trump is capable of focusing on his 2024 win AND exposing the stolen 2020 election.
America, NEEDS to Know
Trump Will never Let This Go, until The Truth comes Out. AND, Traitors Are Punished.
Easy answer to the dingbats on The Pee-uw.
Ignoring the stolen 2020 election allows the entire cheat-structure to remain in place and steal future elections.
Exposing the stolen 2020 election gives DJT leverage and public support to do whatever is necessary to prevent election fraud in 2026 and make sure it doesn’t happen again.
You’re welcome, silly dingbats 😂
Right.
Trump is not spending all of this time and focus on the 2020 election for himself or his ego. It is not just about how Trump was wronged and cheated out of this election
The cheating and theft that went on in 2020 has to be proven to everyone for the future security of our Country!! It cannot now be “put in the past” or glossed over. Every bit of what was done – and how – needs to be proven and revealed so that it can be prevented from ever happening again.
All of the skeptics and Trump haters need to be shown the undeniable truth.
And – most of all – those who orchestrated all of this need to be held accountable and pay the price!!
BINGO.
It must all come out. Traitors punished.
I don’t know what’s up with the pornographic ads on YouTube, but it needs to stop. I did a search, and people have been complaining about this for at least a year.

Wow. That’s got to sting. Imagine that Barrack’s good friend and blacksphere icon being named. The clip of him with spirit cooker freak gives a glimpse that says a lot.
There was a very short snip from years back of kanye saying something about JayZ and PushaT. I don’t know what his mental problems are but he knew something way back when. If he made enemies of the O led cabal maybe they effed him up bad…like something to permanently make him nuts?
I can remember stories about Kanye’s personal trainer threatening him. Saying that if he did not keep his mouth shut the trainer would have him committed and doped to the gills and he would never see his kids again. Kanye disappeared shortly there after.
I don’t even know who Jay-Z is. I guess I can’t hang with the kool kids anymore… 😂

Not to myself, but to someone I might want to do irreparable harm to… 🤣

Get out the popcorn for the DSA’s bid for a hostile Democratic Party takeover
the wake of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s rise, his hard-left Democratic Socialists of America are looking to eat up more offices now held by older-school Democrats — and the moribund, corruption-plagued Dem establishment may lack the fortitude to resist.
It certainly doesn’t show any hint of plans for a counter-attack: The old guard’s prospered so long by attacking Republicans from the left, it doesn’t have a clue how to stave off the same assault by the hard left.
The DSA is targeting multiple seats in the Legislature this year, plus at least two House contests, and early signs are grim for traditional Dems.
Notably, Rep. Gregory Meeks and his Queens Democratic machine find themselves compelled to back the DSA’s choice, Diana Moreno, in the Feb. 3 special election to fill Mamdani’s former Assembly seat.
Meeks, who didn’t endorse Mamdani last year, has little choice but to support Moreno or be humiliated in “The People’s Republic of Astoria,” an area represented by DSAers in the City Council, state Legislature and Congress.
Now look at the Democratic primaries in June, where DSA chapters have already endorsed eight candidates for Assembly, Senate and House races — while seven DSA-backed incumbents, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, face no serious reelection challenge.
Morew link..
not good
Dsa on a roll. The “cool” club for useful ijits.
The DSA-ers will want to push the entire Dem Party into all-out communism. This will have an impact on possibly the primaries this year, but definitely the presidential election in 2028. The less-crazy wing of the Dems is going to have a hard time setting themselves apart from the commies while also shunning everything that Trump and MAGA stand for.

Shocking. But we will see how desperate they get. As an aside, car registration every year is a lot. My 11 yr old car is about 375. Mr gils 2 yr old truck is 525… A YEAR!
NV was almost as bad.
TX 22 Jeep $74. 21 Ram $78.
No vehicle inspections or smog NE TX..
Though, I’ve heard Dallas or Houston do smog. Don’t know for sure.
Hmm. Interesting they arent a statewide requirement but county determined.
Californicate KNOWS what is best for ALL.
NV is also by county. Three counties do smog. ~Thirty do not.
Texas, ONLY 18 of 254 counties require smog test.
Wow!! Smog here is around 45 bucks in addition to registration. And you can only go to “test only” approved centers. Once you dont pass, then you go to repair, do that, then pay for another test.
Circus.

IT’S OFFICIAL: “ICE OUT” professional leftist agitator Maria Santay has been ARRESTED for continuing to impede ICE, major FAFO has played out
The stalkers are now FACING JUSTICE!
I want them all in prison!
For ‘continuing to impede ICE’?!?
Why wasn’t she arrested the first time?
You know who would have been arrested the first time?
Any white man, that’s for sure.
Where is the Civil Rights division?
Why can’t white people get equal justice under law?
Why are white people treated like 3/5th’s class citizens?
Scott,
If you want the ENTIRE NETWORK you let them continue so you can track them!
She is a low level player but she is TOLD what to do and now they ALSO have that info.
Any bets she has ALREADY FLIPPED?
It’s possible that this is her first direct contact with ICE. The “continuing” part might be about this whole episode.
Pretti didn’t get arrested the first time either.
“Pretti didn’t get arrested the first time either.”

Yep.
If they had arrested and prosecuted him for destruction of federal property (busting the tail light of the Fed’s SUV), he would still be alive today.
But he received no consequences for his actions, which only emboldened him to try harder, to look for greater boundaries to test.
When he tested the boundary on January 24th, it was his last one.
If he had been taught a lesson at any time up to the point, he would still be alive today.
I’ll never understand the way they become scared little chickens the minute they’re getting arrested, peacefully, I might add. They spend their life terrorizing LEO’s and their families, MAGA, Christians but can’t be brave when their time is up?
I am glad to see it.
Any bets she flips on her bosses ASAP?
Hope so.

Because they’re tin-pot tyrants. Being in a protected-class means never being held accountable, for anything.
It’s LITERALLY a
get out of jail freenever even go to jail in the first place card.They are infantilized.
So her whole life, she has been ‘allowed’ to mouth off to men, to police, to anyone in a position of power and authority, with zero consequences.
And the only reason there have been zero consequences is because of the insanity of protected-class social constructs.
That’s literally all it is, a social construct, where people with non-white skin and foreign accents are above the law, for absolutely no reason that anyone can coherently articulate with a straight face.
And it only takes about 5 seconds to let that kind of power-without-accountability go to one’s head, especially to the heads of Orcs.
So the first time they ever suffer actual consequences, the first time men don’t respond like servile simps and respond like Zoo keepers instead, it’s scary.
Because she knows her ‘power’ has only ever been a paper tiger, a social construct that depended on everyone going along with a lie, going along with an unreality.
These men standing outside her car are not pretending, they aren’t going along with the lie, the bogus social fiction that has always protected her from the consequences of her actions.
She should be scared.
And she is.
This is why it is important to learn about consequences at a young age.
So you don’t grow up to be a nightmare of a human being, and eventually get yourself in some kind of trouble that your mouth and your attitude can’t bail you out of.

I am glad the 48 hour rule is working for me 🙂 Trump gets it. Blue cities will regret not bringing their lunatics under control.
Interesting.
Same as above post. Formatted for easier reading. SD
President Trump appears to be initiating a strategic retreat from sanctuary states and sanctuary cities. Via a message on Truth Social President Trump says he has instructed DHS Secretary Noem not to participate in “poorly run Democrat cities”:
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP –
“I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help. We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists.
Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence.
In the meantime, by copy of this Statement, I am informing Local Governments, as I did in Los Angeles when they were rioting at the end of the Biden Term, that you must protect your own State and Local Property. In addition, it is your obligation to also protect our Federal Property, Buildings, Parks, and everything else. We are there to protect Federal Property, only as a back up, in that it is Local and State Responsibility to do so.
Last night in Eugene, Oregon, these criminals broke into a Federal Building, and did great damage, also scaring and harassing the hardworking employees. Local Police did nothing in order to stop it. We will not let that happen anymore!
If Local Governments are unable to handle the Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Anarchists, we will immediately go to the location where such help is requested, and take care of the situation very easily and methodically, just as we did the Los Angeles Riots one year ago, where the Police Chief said that, “We couldn’t have done it without the help of the Federal Government.” Therefore, to all complaining Local Governments, Governors, and Mayors, let us know when you are ready, and we will be there — But, before we do so, you must use the word, “PLEASE.”
Remember that I stated, in the strongest of language, to BEWARE — ICE, Border Patrol or, if necessary, our Military, will be extremely powerful and tough in the protection of our Federal Property. We will not allow our Courthouses, Federal Buildings, or anything else under our protection, to be damaged in any way, shape, or form. I was elected on a Policy of Border Control (which has now been perfected!), National Security, and LAW AND ORDER — That’s what America wants, and that’s what America is getting!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
Read the last part of the SD article. He is on HEAVY EEYORE!
Talk about Noem and Tulsi being forced to resign by Wiles. BS! Crazy BS. SD needs a sunlight pill.
Here was a better take, from the comments. This analyzes the whole Trump truth post, and explains what Trump is doing. The Oregon situation will be met with hardcore federal response.

This is the part I really like… seems like a door just opened, so to speak:
“or, if necessary, our Military”…
Yea.
Zero chance Noem or Tulsi will be fired. Nor will they quit.
Exactly. That’s some damn strong Eeyore juice in SD’s glass.
Wiles may have some less-that-courageous instincts on occasion, but IMO she would actually be more likely to allow rumors of her having made such foolish recommendations to float, than to have actually made them.
Wiles is smart enough to know the value of such enemy errors flourishing. Those rumors could flush out a lot of Trump enemies and just plain idjits.

It has a multiplier effect that most people are unaware of and a strong indication they know the voter ID/registration emphasis is going to have a major effect.

Again – less physical bodies to use to do the dirty work of the uniparty and Dems in particular.
Cut off the access to money – they self deport. Put the pressure on the employers – fewer jobs, less money.

Tesla builds largest lithium refinery in the U.S.
This week, Tesla North America and Elon Musk announced that the largest and most advanced lithium refinery in the United States is now operational.
The Tesla Lithium Refinery just outside of Corpus Christi, Texas, is another step toward the U.S. goal of having domestic refined lithium resources to counter China’s market dominance…
A new lithium mine near the border between Oregon and Nevada is expected to produce 40,000 tons of lithium a year soon.
Massive lithium production is also planned at the Great Salt Lake. “A startup in Utah has developed a more sustainable way to collect lithium. …

https://libertyunyielding.com/2026/01/31/tesla-builds-largest-lithium-refinery-in-the-u-s/
GOOD! CHYYYYYNA DON’T LIKE!!! 
I have posted this previously that Thacker Pass alone has enough lithium reserves to handle 25% of the world’s demand for years to come. That’s why GM, LG and many others are invested into the area and its mining.
I will say it one more time. That is why the cloud seeding in going on in the region. Great Salt Lake’s water table is dangerously low, an indication of the water table throughout that region. Water is used in lithium extraction and is returned to the water table. They are trying to build up the snow cap and overall water table in the region to have enough to support the population as well as mining operations. Thacker Pass is not the only mineral reserves location in that region.
Anti-ice is big business. The $$ for all of this must be many millions.
So extradite him for trial.
Or does the Netherlands want to be next on DJT’s poop-list?
I hope the Dutch refuse to extradite if asked. I am curious to see what leverage the President would use, Would it be tariffs or would he just threaten to buy Holland?
I hope he threatens to buy Holland.
Call it Money-boat diplomacy…
DJT: “Oh, yeah? Well I’ll just buy your country. How do you like that?” 🤣
Trade it for San Francisco… all those dikes… oh, wait…
Actually would be a good thing for Holland, as their gubmint is trying to kill off their farmers, etc. It’s not in the news very much anymore, but the farmers have been protesting for about two years now, and the EU’s dastardly treaty with South American produce and meat sources (MERCOSUR) will REALLY hurt European farmers and ranchers… 😡 😡 😡 😡
Trump pens an OpEd, for the NY Slimes.
It IS past time for, Supreme Court To Declare Trump’s Tariffs LEGAL.
Trump Op-Ed: Tariffs Revived Economy, Defied Experts
President Donald Trump wrote that his sweeping tariff program has delivered what he called an “American economic miracle,” rejecting warnings from critics who predicted his trade policies would trigger inflation, recession, and global instability.
“When I imposed historic tariffs on nearly all foreign countries last April, the critics said my policies would cause a global economic meltdown,” Trump wrote in a Wall Street Journal opinion piece published Friday. “Instead, they have created an American economic miracle.”
Trump said that although economists and commentators forecast “market crashes, massive inflation and recession,” he argued that “every one of those predictions has proven completely and totally wrong.”
“Since I was elected in 2024, we have had 52 stock market highs, with virtually no inflation,” he wrote.
Trump contrasted current conditions with what he described as an economy damaged under President Joe Biden.
“I inherited an economy ravaged by the radical policies of Sleepy Joe Biden and his allies in Congress,” Trump wrote, blaming “trillions of dollars in wasteful spending” and an “extremist green energy agenda” for “the worst inflation in more than 40 years.”
Only a year into his second term, Trump said the U.S. is seeing “extremely low inflation, and extraordinarily high economic growth.”
He pointed to government data showing third-quarter 2025 gross domestic product growth of 4.4% and said the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta projected the fourth quarter will be “well over 5%.”
Trump also highlighted what he called major improvements in trade and manufacturing.
“With the help of tariffs, we have cut that federal budget deficit by a staggering 27% in a single year,” he wrote, adding that the monthly trade deficit was reduced “by an astonishing 77%.”
He asserted that “American exports are up by $150 billion,” domestic steel production is rising, and “China’s share of U.S. imports has reached the lowest level since China entered the World Trade Organization in 2001.”
Trump credited tariffs as the driving force behind those gains.
“Without question, the credit for this economic success must go to … my tariffs!” he wrote, arguing that “properly applied, tariffs do not hurt growth — they promote growth and greatness.”
Trump rejected claims that tariffs operate as a consumer tax.
“The Journal has charged repeatedly that tariffs are nothing but a ‘tax’ on American consumers,” he wrote. “This … has proved to be totally false.”
Citing Harvard Business School research, Trump said foreign producers and middlemen are paying “at least 80% of tariff costs.”
Trump also argued tariffs have driven unprecedented investment.
“In less than one year, we have secured commitments for more than $18 trillion,” he wrote, pointing to investments by major automakers, semiconductor manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies.
He said that predicted retaliation “never materialized” and the U.S. instead reached “historic trade deals” with China, the U.K., the European Union, Japan, South Korea, and others.
Trump tied the policy directly to national security.
“It is simply undeniable that my tariffs have strengthened our national security immeasurably,” he wrote.
Concluding, Trump declared tariffs were central to America’s resurgence.
“Just over one year ago, we were a ‘DEAD’ country,” he wrote. “Now, we are the ‘HOTTEST’ country anywhere in the world!”

If two urinalists rob a bank, should they be arrested, or does the 1st Amendment protect them from arrest?
Yes, they should be arrested.
So now that we have established that urinalists are not above the law, it makes perfect sense why urinalists would also be arrested for inciting riots and violating the Constitutionally guaranteed Rights of American citizens.

Trump Officials Held Secret Meetings With Prominent Canadian Group Seeking To Secede
A new bombshell report in Financial Times says that US officials have held recent talks with Canadian separatists seeking to break Alberta, Canada’s oil-rich western province, away from Ottawa.
“Officials in the [US President] Donald Trump administration discussed loaning Alberta $500 million to break up Canada and make it the 51st state,” one source told the FT.
This follows on the heels of Trump earlier this month posting a fictitious map showing Canada as part of the United States. The report also comes days after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s speech in Davos before the World Economic Forum (WEF). He called out President Trump for creating a “rupture” in the existing world order.
Carney has also told his parliament, “The world has changed. Washington has changed. There is almost nothing normal in the US now – that’s the truth.”
Trump famously fired back: “Canada lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements” while adding that Carney “wasn’t so grateful” and that Canada “gets a lot of freebies from us.”
Recall too the words of US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent at Davos: “Alberta is a natural partner for the US. People are talking. People want sovereignty. They want what the US has got.”
And now the FT article, along with other media, claim Trump is destabilizing Canada by these secret meetings between the Canadian separatists and “very, very senior” officials in the US administration.
Jeff Rath, legal adviser to the movement in question – the Alberta Prosperity Project (APP) – has gone so far as to proclaim that Washington is pushing for an “independent” Alberta.
APP leaders are now seeking follow-up meetings with the US State and Treasury Departments next month to request a $500 million credit facility to bankroll secession, while also pressing for US recognition and new pipeline routes that would bypass Canadian federal approval, according to the reports. They are said to be ‘taking advantage’ of the ongoing friction between the US and its northern neighbor.

But even if Bitcoin goes to $10 million per Bitcoin, even if demand comes from every living soul on earth, production cannot be increased to meet demand.
There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin created. Around 5 million have already been lost, and there are only about 1 million left to be mined, over the next 114 years.
Reassuring, for Bitcoin believers.
Bitcoin is for math believers, mostly 😂
This is nothing. Precious metals are just learning what volatility really is.
My first experience with Bitcoin was around 2021, when it went as high as $69,000 before falling about 77%, all the way down to $15,500… 😁
Bitcoin is for math believers, mostly.
Well, I am a believer in math. Though, Steve routinely baffled me. Along with Wolf and several others. So I accepted, they know what they are talking about. They are all a hell of a lot smarter than I.
Have read many, perhaps most of your Bitcoin posts. Understand them. Including what appears to be fundamental math. Along with the stated Bitcoin story lines – theories. Some are likely memorized.
In normal times, Bitcoin has some value, to Bitcoin believers. SHTF, Bitcoin, worthless.
I simply would never drink the Bitcoin Kool-Aid. Those that do, enjoy it. I hope they are never disappointed.
“In normal times, Bitcoin has some value, to Bitcoin believers.”

That’s just it, the only reason anything has value is because people, human beings, decide it does.
That includes gold.
That’s why in these discussions I often say if you put gold under an electron microscope, you won’t see little tiny dollars signs, it’s just metal.
Wooden ‘tally’ sticks were once used as a store of value and medium of exchange in eurolandia.
Glass beads once had great value in New York.
All kinds of things have been used as stores of value and mediums of exchange.
Gold is clearly superior to glass beads and sticks, which is why it has been used as a store of value for thousands of years.
What distinguishes Bitcoin, among other things, is that it is weightless, colorless and odorless.
This makes it very easy to store and transport, and very hard to steal.
And probably the most important characteristic of all, one which no other thing possesses, is that Bitcoin is finite.
There is a fixed supply.
This is something unique in human experience, which is probably why so many people have trouble really understanding it.
Besides rare and unique works of art — which are fragile, non-divisible and otherwise not well suited as a medium of exchange — people have never had a secure, divisible, durable, transportable, frictionless medium of exchange, that is decentralized (controlled and controllable by no one), is verifiable on a publicly distributed ledger, and is also finite.
It’s not memorization, these are basic principles and concepts that determine whether something is suitable to be used as a store of value.
These principles and concepts are well understood and were studied by the people who created Bitcoin. It’s the whole reason why they created Bitcoin they way that they did. It wasn’t an accident, it was by very careful and intentional design.
There is no Kool-Aid component inherent to Bitcoin, but a nice tall glass of Kool-Aid can certainly be enjoyed while learning about Bitcoin 😁
I think he means if the electricity goes out, or the internet goes down, bitcoin will be un-reachable. You might own it but you can’t get to it or use it.
Exactly.
PG nailed it.
Gotta have Power AND Internet to have Bitcoin worth anything.
“Gotta have Power AND Internet to have Bitcoin worth anything.”
___________
Hopefully the power won’t be out permanently.
If it’s just a day or two, it’s hardly different than the bank being closed on Sunday, or any holiday.
If you have something in the safe-deposit box, for example, it will be ‘safe’… until the bank opens again 😁
Fortunately, with Starlink and cell phones, concerns about electric power and Internet should be a thing of the past.
Unless the entire planet is without power and internet, and space is too.
In which case, there are probably bigger things to worry about than spending Bitcoins…

Could not have said it better AND IS my point.

Perfect messaging. No ambiguity. None.
BOOM! Tom Homan just struck fear into the hearts of MILLIONS of Democrats and criminals
“If you’re in the country illegally, you’re NOT off the table! We’ll find YOU too and deport you TOO!”
YUP. Homan is giving the peaceful ones longer to arrange an exit, and more options to self-deport, even with a free ride and cash to go.
Heartbreaking.
Ms Linda’s Bill, to outlaw Sanctuary states and sanctuary cities, is a Must Pass.
When it does pass,
I hear you!!!
They’re not ‘immigrants’, they’re alien invaders.
Nobody coming in – border shut down. Enforcement is now free to focus on exiting those who are not here legally. Simple concept that works. Clamp down on the money flows out and employers. They will go away.
Upcoming State Of The Union Will Be Fantastic.
Brave.
The next State of the Union Address is scheduled for Tuesday, February 24, 2026.
Invitation Details: House Speaker Mike Johnson has formally invited President Donald Trump to deliver the address before a joint session of Congress on that date. This will be Trump’s first official State of the Union address in his second term.
The event is expected to take place in the House Chamber at the U.S. Capitol and will likely begin at 9:00 p.m. ET, consistent with past traditions
Looking forward to it!
NYC Mayor Admits a $12 Billion Budget Crisis
Nellie Miranda – 01/31/2026
Good luck dealing with that, Mamdami.
It is snowing here so I quickly put up my rough draft for Wednesday and scheduled it.
Thank you!!!
Just making sure everything went out on time.
Have not heard from PAVACA since this morning. Hope she is sheltering with son.
Yours Truly is sheltering in place here with Solas at Chez Yours Truly.
Between multiple texts and photos to son and DIL, I was able to clean off enough of the crud on the fireplace damper to open it. I then laid a small fire in the grate but haven’t used it yet. The power is still on, the snow will stop around 1AM tomorrow, and the high wind gusts haven’t shown up yet. The LR here is set up for camping out indoors. FUBAR box is in the car. The roads are a mess and treacherous. Fingers crossed and praying that the high winds don’t show up here. There are isolated scattered outages in the area.
🙏 up for safety and better weather.
Glad to hear you are doing OK. Winds have died down here and the snow fall is light.
Thanks for the great update.
Last I looked Ryan Hall (weather) was still showing the ‘dry corridor’ from Wilmington to Raleigh. PAVACA is west of that. We are sitting in the middle of it and so far have about an inch on the ground with light snow. COLD (low 15F) and not as windy as I expected.
Storm should be over by 3AM.
Trump vs. Wall Street: The “Republican New Deal” Begins
“In this episode, Susan Kokinda discusses the implications of Kevin Warsh’s nomination as the Fed chair by President Trump. This move marks the beginning of a Republican New Deal aimed at supporting Main Street over Wall Street.
Highlighting Ambassador Jamieson Greer’s impactful speech at Davos, she outlines the return to the American System rooted in Alexander Hamilton’s economic principles and the shift away from the Globalist model.
The episode dives into the historical context, comparing Trump’s strategy to past American leaders who championed similar economic reforms and were targeted by the British Empire.”
.
Laugh Out Loud Funny.
Ed Dowd. The things that make you hmmm.
First Squawk. The London Metal Exchange delayed Friday trading due to a technical issue, Bloomberg reports.
Seems like they lost their mettle 🙂
BREAKING: AG Pam Bondi just DROPPED A BOMB on EVERY anti-ICE leftist agitator in America
“When we say God bless America, WE MEAN IT. If you do that in any house of worship in this country, we’re going to FIND you, we’re going to INDICT you, I’m going to PROSECUTE you!”
“The 9 we indicted, all caravanning together. They storm in that church from all directions, start screaming, chants in unison, horrible chants. One man screams, this ain’t the house of God, this is the house of the devil!”
“A little girl later recounted that she thought her mom and dad were going to be KlLLED.”
“Parents were blocked from getting upstairs to get their children out of Sunday school. Some of the lucky women ran out the side door, falling on the ice, legs up in the air. One woman hurt her arm so badly she had to go to the hospital.”
“Parishioners were blocked from exiting the church. Don Lemon, on video, blocked one of them, screaming, yelling at the pastor. That’s illegal in this country.” @AGPamBondi
It’s very satisfying when they get exposed and caught.
This is an absolutely fantastic move by Bondi. She has just created a SAFE SPACE for normal people from communists, that the feds can just go ape shit barbaric on the left for even touching. This is the biggest backfire on the left in ages.
Another brave Karen, thought she was immune.
HOLY CRAP! Federal agents are CHARGING at leftist agitators and making ARRESTS at the LA federal building
One just got brought to the ground and CARRIED while screaming like a child
I VOTED FOR THIS! MORE FAFO!
These psychos will finally learn they’re NOT above the law
Good.
MOAR!
MUCH MOAR!
Time for the games to end and the real world consequences to begin.
When you’re planning your protest wardrobe cut off shorts shouldn’t be in the choices. You really should expect that maybe just maybe you’ll end up on the ground.
That’s what she wanted!
Now come the consequences… a whole new experience 😁
Have missed Miller sounding off the past few days. hope he had some quality time with Katie. Not muzzled a bit.
Trump 1.0 trashed Wu’s BS statement below.
Miller. This is the core organizing strategy of the entire Democrat Party. It’s all downstream of this.
Wu. “Every single human being has the legal right to come to the United States and seek shelter”
She’s just flat-out, whacked-out-of-her-mind wrong.
She’s a RED Chinese agent…
Riots Overtake Los Angeles… Total Collapse
Benny Johnson – 01/31/2026
If they are setting the detention center on fire, rescue the Federal officers ONLY and let the rest burn…
Then prosecute all the rioters for murder…
Yeah, I am completely out of compassion and Give a Fucks.
His exact statement I don’t remember but Homan said Federal buildings are going to be defended strongly. Meaning rubber bullets or other possibly?
If I recall correctly there are sonic weapons
Protesters Panic Over ‘Crap Cannon’ | WIRED
What’s an LRAD? Explaining the ‘sonic weapons’ police use…
SONIC WEAPONS EXPLAINED: HOW DO THEY WORK, AND WHAT ARE THEY USED FOR?
:
My bad, it was PTrump that said it~~~~~~
We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists. Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence. In the meantime, by copy of this Statement, I am informing Local Governments, as I did in Los Angeles when they were rioting at the end of the Biden Term, that you must protect your own State and Local Property.
It started snowing here in coastal S Carolina. About an inch so far but the strange thing is that it’s so fine it’s blowing into the regular roofed screened porch! Never saw anything like this before
That is exactly what it did here, molly. My screen porch had a dusting all over with that fine, powder snow. We ended up with 7″ of it. Though it was easy to shovel when it stopped. It is so powdery, I will probably be able to use a blower on it tomorrow to get the rest off the driveway.
Or a broom.
Yep broom worked fine on mine! As always stay safe Gail
Thanks and do stay safe.
I find a broom actually works better than a shovel on light fluffy snow that is not too deep.
I swept with a the broom best that I could but it’s all over everything. This porch is big..the catchall before coming in, table chairs, cabinet, beach chairs ..you know kind of messy! It’s in pre spring mode when it’ll get arranged and cute 😅
We probably won’t get as much as Tn. My brother in Memphis said they were expecting frozen fog the other day. Have you seen that?
Their snow was so underlaid with ice that sleds and cars barely made a mark on it
