Dear MAGA: 20260205 ✾ Thank God ± Theistic Evolution ∈ Thursday Open Topic


This man, making Christmas calls from the White House, believes the world is a sphere. And he has even flown around it! So has our beautiful FLOTUS, who happens to be his wife!

Truth and common sense must be valued by us, as individuals, in order to lastingly disempower the authoritarian fake news media. This includes the perniciously smarmy science media, which never answers for its errors and lies. I believe that the media has been responsible not only for leftist pathologies like scientism, medical fascism, and radical gender ideology, but also for reactionary movements like modern flat Earth, rejection of all medicine, and Biblical geological literalism.


Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Thank God Thursday Open Thread, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Theistic Evolution Thursdays, due to the author’s expected “pontification” about his scientific, religious, and political opinions. You are welcome to pontificate back! Free speech matters!

Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their comlmunally protected lies for actual truth.

The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.

And yes, it’s THURSDAY…again.

And that’s it. We’re done stealing from Wheatie.

OK – maybe her rules need to be posted.

  • No food fights.
  • No running with scissors.
  • If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Other rules may be derivable from these, and that conjecture is left for discussion.


If there is nothing beyond the “W” below, then this is a placeholder. For health reasons, I can’t always post a timely opinion before each Thursday, but I will try. Otherwise, you have this placeholder post, where YOU provide the content. Enjoy!

Here we go again! Thankful Thursday!


(1) Infinity, like AI, is causing problems again. Let “Purple-Haired Geek Chick” try to get you to care!


(2) Time for the companion to a previous video. This time: men’s hobbies that WOMEN LIKE. Maybe. Not always. But often. Whatever.


(3) Was that too simpy? Then listen to this young white gal, who (while working in Hollyweird) saw the insanity of DEI, and now sees the radicalization of young white men by DEI. There’s a sign of hope in her conclusion.


(4) OK – you need this! THE BEST video on GREENLAND that you will find on the internet. No clickbait, no AI, no bullshit. Just the facts, and images that actually match the conversation. This is all the background you need, to figure out why Trump is acting NOW.


(5) Erika (a.k.a. Gutsick Gibbon) just put out her 4th teaching video with TFE organizer and evolution skeptic Will Duffy – this one is about the age of the Earth. Yeah, it’s over 4 hours long, but if you’re looking for a background lecture, this has some interesting stuff. Check it out!


(6) How about a jazzy, rockin’ hymn? This will put you in a good mood!


Have a great weekend!

It’s time to actually read the constitution. The Congress can even order the number and location of polling places and when they can be open. The notion that the fed govt is powerless over elections is just plain ignorant.

///////////////////////////
Art. 1, Sect. 4.-1. The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of choosing Senators.

White House instructs DOT, CDC to cut $1.5B in grants for Dem states, citing ‘waste and mismanagement’

President Trump’s budget office is instructing the Department of Transportation and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to claw back more than $1.5 billion from blue states on grounds the money was being mishandled, officials told The Post.

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) told the DOT Wednesday to cancel more than $943 million, while the CDC was ordered to nix at least $602 million meant for California, Colorado, Illinois and Minnesota.

An OMB spokesperson said that the states were being targeted for “waste and mismanagement” of taxpayer funds.

Illinois was slated to receive the largest of the transportation-related grants, with $100 million provided to the state’s Environmental Protection Agency to build electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. A DOT spokesman confirmed the cuts were being carried out.

The health care money, some of which was passed under former President Joe Biden, funded research on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives or transgender medicine that was “not in line with administration policy,” according to White House officials.

The OMB spokesperson added that more grant cancellations were expected. HHS reps didn’t immediately confirm the cuts.

Trump had warned so-called “sanctuary cities or states” that he would begin halting the funding in February, saying their policies foment “fraud and crime and all of the other problems that come.”

If the Trump administration is successful in clawing back the money, Minnesota would lose $15 million in federal funding for EV chargers in poor neighborhoods and “environmental justice communities” would also be scratched out.

Poor neighborhoods have EV chargers?

It looks as if most of this money was promoting leftist causes and that it might have been ripe for laundering. Maybe it was going to illegally fund the DNC and the like.

More details at the link about the kinds of programs that are being cut (EV chargers, research of various kinds, etc.).

CAROL ROTH: The money in your ‘safe’ savings account could vanish overnight

Most Americans believe that putting money with a trusted bank or credit union is safe — that they can set it and forget it. But doing that could just make your money disappear from your account!

My cousin called me in a panic last week. A retiree, she had put her savings (a six-figure sum) into a savings account with a credit union.

This was her life’s savings, and she received quarterly statements that showed monthly deposits of interest. She watched her balance grow.

On her third quarter of 2025 statement, everything looked fine. But when she received her fourth quarter 2025 statement, the account had been marked closed.

She couldn’t believe it. What happened to the account, and where was her money?

When she called the credit union, they said her account had been closed for inactivity. They had closed it as a dormant account and sent the money to the state, a process known as “escheatment” (aptly named, given the circumstances).

She didn’t understand. There was activity from the financial institution with interest deposits every month.

She then called the state, and they said they didn’t have the money; it also was not on their unclaimed property website.

So, what happened?

This story is a red flag for everyone, but especially for seniors or soon-to-be retirees who put money into savings and don’t do anything with it.

  :wpds_arrow: If you, as an account holder, do not have owner-initiated activity in your financial accounts — that is, activity you personally undertake, such as making a deposit, withdrawal, updating your information, or contacting the institution, etc. — and think you can just collect interest, you put your account at risk for closure. Automatic interest postings do not count toward keeping the account active. In Illinois, the current dormancy period is three years (though it varies by state). Simply collecting interest without any owner-initiated interaction can lead to the account being classified as dormant.

…If the institution believes the account is dormant, the institution is supposed to do due diligence and contact you (such as via a mailed letter) before escheating funds. The credit union said they mailed a notice of closure, but it was not sent via certified mail, and my cousin never saw it. She only received that final notice that the account was closed.

More in the article about the red tape involved in trying to recover her money…

What can you do to avoid the same scenario?
First, make sure that your bank or credit union is insured by the FDIC or NCUA, respectively. Make sure that each of your accounts does not exceed the insurance limit ($250,000 per depositor, per insured institution, per ownership category.) Divide up accounts so each is covered if you exceed the maximum in any account.
Second, look up the escheatment laws in your state. Even if the listed time period is longer than one year, I recommend that you make at least one transaction every six months to keep your account active and in good standing.
Next, review your statements for all your accounts regularly and look for any unusual activity, notices and the like.
I would also recommend that you work with a financial institution that has a branch you can walk into. Establish a relationship with the staff so that you have an internal ally to help you.
If you are being dismissed by customer service at any point, have a trusted friend or relative help you navigate the process. The credit union dismissed my cousin until I called with her on the phone as her representative.
In our first interaction, I also let the customer service staff know upfront that I was recording the call for our records, so I could transparently do a recording (recording laws vary by state). That had a double benefit of letting them know this was serious and on the record, and it also created an audio record we could use in the future if the situation escalated.
I hope that more awareness will be made and states will consider changing this ridiculous rule that creates a burden, particularly for retirees and other seniors who want to keep their savings as untouched money.
Savings accounts are supposed to be for saving, and financial institutions are supposed to be trusted. In today’s day and age, you need to diligently keep track of your hard-earned money before it ends up missing. While funds are recoverable if escheated, preventative efforts can keep you from dealing with the time, effort and issues of this process.
