"I was at the grocery store loading bags into my car when I noticed a man in the parking lot with a beautiful golden retriever. He was kneeling beside the dog, crying and hugging him tightly. People walked past, trying not to stare. I couldn't help myself. 'Is your dog okay?'
He looked up, tears streaming down his face. 'He's perfect. That's the problem.' He wiped his eyes. 'I just lost my job and my apartment. I'm moving into my car tomorrow. I can't take care of him anymore. I'm waiting for the shelter to open so I can surrender him.'
The dog licked his owner's face, tail wagging, completely unaware. The man broke down again. 'I've had him for seven years. He's my best friend. But I can't feed him. I can't give him what he needs. I have to let him go.'
My heart shattered watching this. Without thinking, I said, 'What if he stays with me? Temporarily. Until you get back on your feet.' He stared at me like I'd spoken a different language. 'You don't even know me.' I knelt down and petted the dog. 'I know you love him enough to put his needs before your own. That tells me everything.' For the next four months, I kept that dog, fed him, walked him, loved him.
The man would visit once a week, spending hours playing with his best friend in my backyard. He'd always leave crying. Eventually, he found work, saved enough for an apartment, and came to take his dog home. The reunion was beautiful, the dog went absolutely crazy with joy. The man hugged me so hard I could barely breathe. 'You kept my family together when I thought I'd lost everything.' He still sends me photos of them together." —Michelle
Ohh Too precious for words. Thank you 🥰 It is crystal clear that the Lord created animals to complete our lives in a way we can’t always explain. HE knows what we need & when we need it. ♥️
Our first 'baby' was a Cream Golden that we got while living in the UK in the late 80's. It wouldn't be heaven if we didn't get to see that dog again up there. He was just the best.
TriTorch my twin sis & I agree the one & only real deal is JESUS & His word. The situations happening in this world continue to point to HIM. Heavens our real home not this world.
"Outside of Christ, I am only a sinner, but in Christ, I am saved. Outside of Christ, I am empty; in Christ, I am full. Outside of Christ, I am weak; in Christ, I am strong. Outside of Christ, I cannot; in Christ, I am more than able. Outside of Christ, I have been defeated; in Christ, I am already victorious. How meaningful are the words, "in Christ." —Watchman Nee
TriTorch, I read your note about proof of identity soon being required to attest to the authenticity of anything a person posts to the internet.
To me, the deeper issue is about deception, an issue that goes back to the Garden of Eden when the serpent lied to Eve about the apple.
May I ask a provocative question: if something is not real, but inspirational (e.g. many, many works of art and fiction) does the authenticity of the author matter? If the Bible, or parts of it, were fiction, would it still be a worthwhile teaching tool or an effective guide to how to live one's life? At the risk of blasphemy, the same question could be applied to Jesus himself.
When you say, "I hope it's real, but if not, I hope it inspires" does the authenticity of the author even matter?
These are 'Plato's Cave', 'Simulacra and Simulation', and 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' questions about the nature of reality, fiction, and whether the impact of fiction on reality is a genuine expression or a counterfeit simulacra of one.
We could discuss this for days and never come to an answer, my friend.
I post this story today to uplift and inspire knowing a few things:
1) it could be fake
2) doubtless sometime in the long history of our world something exactly like this did happen, so in a way it is real
3) it would uplift and inspire regardless
Where does that leave us? In reality or simulation? I am not sure. Does it matter? Ah, that's your question. I do not know the answer.
Well i do know the answer: Christ—the one and only true antidote to satan’s deceptions.
This story is perfect, whether real or AI generated, to highlight a real life saga my wife and I have been up against for the last few months beginning around Thanksgiving. I was walking our Shih-Tzu at a local park and noticed a crammed full, older SUV parked there with a woman and teen-age girl standing behind the tailgate with a few dogs milling around their feet while they rearranged the car's contents. Sensing something was amiss, I asked them if everything was alright and the mother explained they were homeless and couldn't get housing because their three dogs were not accepted anywhere. She then pointed out her teen-age son sitting in their front seat who she said was autistic so that made for three humans and three large dogs camping out in one mid-sized SUV. Not knowing what to do about it, I gave her a twenty and wished her well but went home and told my wife about it and asked her to pray for a solution. Yesterday, I saw them again and though I've checked in with the mother a couple of times since then, I didn't have a solution for her dilemma. In recent weeks, her autistic son has gone to live with her brother, one dog, the smallest of the trio, died just this week and I told her about our travel trailer they could stay in until she could get into permanent housing but we couldn't accommodate the dogs so I asked if she had checked with the animal shelter downtown to which she replied it wasn't doable because they needed $50 per dog and she didn't have it. I told her we would pay that and she then asked her 14 year old daughter if that would be something she'd like. Her daughter said she couldn't do it if it meant giving up her German Shepherd to do so. Today, I'm supposed to check with them again because the mom promised to talk with her daughter about it last evening. I'm asking for prayer from my C&C friends, that the Lord would direct us as to how we can help this homeless mother and daughter with two dogs that they can't seem to give up even to benefit their own welfare, particularly that of a 14 year old girl who just happens to bear the same first name as my own 14 year old granddaughter.
As a dog lover, I hope that the mother puts the needs of her daughter first. The girl has already been through too much to give up her dog also. That dog may be keeping her going. What if the shelter kills it?
This is very important work. I held a dog for a man whose X said come get the dog today or he goes to the pound, only the man's apartment didn't allow dogs. One month later he managed to relocate and reclaim Buddy. He still, to this day, thanks me for that small service, and Buddy is long gone to his reward.
As a dog lover myself, this pulls on my "heart strings" which I find to be more sensitive the older I get. This in turn causes me to reflect (as I cannot gaze long) on all the babies and young children that have been abused and killed by the Epstein network pedos. There is nothing more precious than a young child - not even a dog.
That is so beautiful, tears of Joy, I did the same for someone and she has yet to bring her dog over. I hope this means she found a way to keep him. Thank you
This past summer I was installing some windows for a cousin. I mentioned all of our family that have passed away and asked him if he thought he would see them again? He paused and said, no. He asked me what I thought and I said yes I believe we will. He was surprised and asked “really?” I said yes, I really do believe. I’ve had similar conversations with my wife about believing there is something after our time here.
In many situations we have to believe without seeing. Just looking back over the past 6 years we knew things were horribly wrong. Along the way we prayed for things to get back to normal. For years nothing seemed to change, things at times got worse, but we kept praying and believing some sense of common good would return.
The other day I was talking with a friend, Barbara Lee, and she said “Pray, worship God with gratitude and live in the thought that good will prevail. I personally feel quite hopeful”. We should all think and live this way,
This past September my brother came up to New Hampshire for a visit. There’s been a family of Bald Eagles living around the lake and just as we were talking about them one flew right over our heads, what a beautiful majestic sight. In the scriptures there are many comparisons to the life of a believer and an eagle.
When a mother eagle is going to have a baby eagle she lays her egg. For thirty five days she has to sit on the egg to keep it warm. She never feels the eaglet kick, the egg doesn’t grow any larger. There’s no sign that what’s on the inside of the egg is alive. The mother eagle could think if it was alive it would move a little bit. At least she would hear something. But day after day the mother eagle sits unmoved by what she doesn’t feel. Unmoved by what’s not changing.
On the thirty fifth day after no signs of life suddenly the little eaglet starts pecking its way out of the shell. Before long it hatches healthy and whole. Think about the faith it takes for that mother eagle to sit on that egg that seems dead. Many times, like the mother eagle, you are going to have to believe something is happening when you can’t see any sign of it. Your going to have to sit on that promise, believing, expecting, praying, thanking, when your not feeling anything moving, when your not seeing any growth. Deep down she must know something is happening that she can’t see. There’s something in the eagles DNA, something put in her by the creator that says I don’t have to see a sign, I don’t have to feel a kick, I know my baby is alive, I know my due season is coming. I know on the thirty fifth day this baby eaglet is going to hatch. This is a reality of Gods influence, providence and creation, where science as an explanation ends and the divine becomes the unquestionable answer.
You may have promises you’ve been standing on for a long time, dreams God has placed in your heart. Every circumstance says it’s never going to happen, what you’re believing for is dead. It would have kicked by now. You would have seen some improvement, some growth. Keep your faith. We have to keep praying, keep thanking God, it’s coming. We have to walk by faith not sight. The creator is going to deliver what’s in my spirit. As we have witnessed things can change, our prayers can come true.
We all will come to a time in our lives when we must believe because there is no other path to take. It may happen differently for some, someone that has refused to believe, but all of the unanswered questions of the mysteries of faith will one day be answered. It may not happen exactly as some may have thought, but we all will find God one day. One day all of us will return to the religion our parents gave to us. Keep praying, keep thanking God and keep living in faith. J.Goodrich
Faith of a mustard seed! I have never not believed and I believe with my heart, body, Soul, mind and all I got. God is my best friend, confidante and my Lord. What a triple win that is! And I have 3 in 1 which is an even more terrific mystery!
I would rather believe in God than not believe even if it turns out that God doesn't exist because my life is better for having believed. My husband and I have conversations about God, also. He always says that we can't see God but neither can we see oxygen, yet we know it is there. I married a really great guy! But having said all of that, the circumstances that led my husband and me to be together are far too crazy to believe it wasn't divine intervention.
James this is beautiful! Deep in our hearts lies a homing beacon and a sense that things aren't the way they ought to be. Then we hear the call of Jesus and that He paid our ransom with His death, and how He defeated death through His resurrection, and that if we call on the Lord and run to Him we will be saved. Then we learn about the spiritual battle that we're in, and that the temporary ruler of this world is satan. But it doesn't end there because Jesus is coming again to claim what is rightfully his. He announced His mission when He read Isaiah 61 when He began His ministry. He will judge and punish the devil, his angels and the wicked, and be coronated King in Zion (Jerusalem for the Portlanders😂). And He will reverse the curse (Genesis 3), and restore all things to the way He intended. And we will partake in its blessings and rule and reign with Him for 1000 years- the wolf will lie down with the lamb, the young boy play with the cobra (Isaiah 11), and then the best is yet to come -into eternity's wild adventures with no more sin, pain, death or mourning. Come Lord Jesus. Maranatha!
Just keep Praying! There was a time (a few years ago) I thought all hope was lost. I struggled Big time but kept the faith that Gods promises had not ended. Some days I had thought we would never be "here" again. You know, living a somewhat normal life. All Glory to God as His mercy never ends.
James, this is so well put. The phrase “ye of little faith” or better yet “me of little faith” comes to mind. As I assess a lifetime of hard evidence of our God’s powerful protection and guidance through my worries and “calamities”, I should be much better at trusting him for solutions to today’s “problems.” His solutions have always been better than my wildest dreams. You, Jeff and so many others in this tribe testify daily to the reality that “all things work together for good to those who love God”..Romans 8:28. Thank you!
“This is a reality of Gods influence, providence and creation, where science as an explanation ends and the divine becomes the unquestionable answer.”
Love the way that is worded.
But
We CAN know what we believe is real. God gave us proof in Jesus. Everything hinges on whether or not he lived, was indeed the son of God, and was raised from the dead. If that were true then everything else Jesus said is reliable. It would benefit more people to put their energies into investigating the truth of Jesus. They will find there’s more indisputable evidence that would hold up in our present day courts than they realize.
Right!? I read a book in the early eighty's written by a woman who did just that-- poured through the Bible determined to prove that Jesus was not the messiah. She could not, and so became a believer herself.
That they may know from the rising to the setting of the sun
That there is no one besides Me.
I am Yahweh, and there is no other[.]
— Isaiah 45:5-6
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia—in order to complete the word of Yahweh from the mouth of Jeremiah—Yahweh stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he had a proclamation pass throughout all his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying:
“Thus says Cyrus king of Persia,
‘Yahweh, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and He has appointed me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.’”
— Ezra 1:1-2

(On the way to the hospital. No worries, hubs is driving. 😃)
Praying for you, dear Janice, for your doctors and nurses, that everything will go smoothly with no complications, and that your time with your grandbaby is "the most bestest" (quoted from a 3-year old niece)!!
Thank you again Janice, and may Yahweh keep you well today. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah are about the rebuilding of the temple, the foundations of Jerusalem, and the restoration of the the worship of Yahweh. The remnant of Judah and the tribes of Israel that returned from captivity, rebuilding the walls and rededicating themselves.
Every day, more and more independent doctors retire or join massive Health conglomerates. . Here Valley Health is Gobbling up everything in site. It is the same elsewhere, and with vets too . Something like 3/4 of all doctors and vets now work for conglomerates or in a hospital. With this set up, and the omnipitent standards of care, doctors cannot follow their own agenda even if they wanted to. As the article says, modern medicine excels at emergency care, but not so much at chronic care. For my own 2 cents, it is an utter failure at chronic care.
The article also says 90 % of people have limited medical literacy . Duh. I had limited health literacy until my wife was diagnosed with cancer. But I reprioritized my life, read nothing but cancer books, watched cancer podcasts, talked to cancer light warriors. The internet now makes this incredibly easy and comprehensive. And yes, books are still irreplaceable, especially for health research because books cannot be censored. Hard to find and get sometimes especially cancer books, but not censored or altered like CIApedia. I say now with all humility, believe I know more about cancer and nutrition than 90 % of doctors.
Stop using your incredibly powerful smart phone as a toy, photo storage, and a shopping play thing. Research whatever ails you or your loved ones as if your life depends on it, because it very well might.
We cured Mom’s stage 4 lung cancer within about 30 days using a simple product that goes by several names, blood root paste, black salve, Indian ointment and so on.
I have used it from a few different sources over the years but my most trusted one is now about $130/jar. A jar or 2 will do the job.
We smeared it on Mom’s back, over her lung with the tumors. At first, it didn’t do a THING but several days in, it made 15-16 tiny canker sores— which (not kidding!) MIGRATED together to make 3 big canker sores, DIRECTLY ON TOP of the tumors, AND the same size and shape of them, looking at x-rays!!! Within days, each sire was oozing all different colors and gross textures of fluid. We changed the paste and bandage every couple of days. Pain was not a biggie, always controlled by simple ship it aspirin (NEVER TYLENOL!) and was more of an odd tugging sensation, than pain. Mom said it felt like someone had a rubber band attached to spots on her lung.
When all the gunk oozed out, over maybe 20 days, the sores slowly closed and the whole area looked like those pink areas you get after a scab comes off. A year or so later, they weren’t even pink. They looked like new skin, that you really had to search to find— and that was ME, looking for the very areas I had doctored for days!
The cancer was “incurable but we can do things to make you live longer and have a decent quality of life” —with mets, to the liver and I think brain?
Anyway, we went to the oncologist after she had had a battery of tests and x-rays.
He said, “You have ZERO living cancer cells in your body!”
When asked how that had happened, when she had stopped chemo and everything months prior, he said, “whatever we did, worked”.
The issue is, “we” didn’t do anything! She stopped ALL treatment
immediately after a full battery of tests, which said her tumors were shrinking but she was still declining and wouldn’t live, and had mets!
SHE applied blood root, and 2-3x she rolled it into a pea sized ball and took it orally as well, although her increased her nausea. That is ALL!!
So the cure— was 100% blood root!
She lived several years and died of a bad fall.
7seven5 three24 four8eightnine is the place I trust most. Robert will help you. He is in AZ, so don’t wake him up like I once did!
Thank you so much for sharing that. We have some black salve, but have not used it. I will file your comment in my cancer folder. There are literally hundreds of ways to reverse cancer, and publicizing any of them to a large audience puts your own life in jeopardy. I have read of many who have died suddenly as a result, and many more who were ruined financially, or imprisoned. What a system.
Thank you for sharing this. I am screen saving it! Bless all of you for helping Mom, bless her for her openmindedness and bless the extra years she had with all of you and of course, adorations to God for the cure and her extra years.
AI says twofeathers.com is the website for Two Feathers, LLC, aka Two Feathers Healing Formula or Two Feathers Inc., a business based in Reno, Nevada (with a mailing address of PO Box 8033, Reno, NV 89507). It offers free consultation by phone, and the phone number is on the website.
Two Feathers is a small family-run company that sells a product called Two Feathers Healing Formula—a traditional Native American herbal remedy (often described as a black salve or escharotic paste) marketed for skin care, detox, or support for various conditions (though they disclaim medical claims and note it's not a medicine).
For skin conditions like wounds, cuts, sores, ringworm, ulcers, skin infections, warts, polyps, and even as a treatment for skin growths or cancers (in some accounts), it was applied as a paste, salve, or fresh sap.
[I know you're dying to know, so: "escharotic" is a medical term for a substance (or agent) that produces a thick, dry, black or brown scab-like crust of dead tissue (called an eschar) on the skin or mucous membranes. It means caustic, corrosive, or capable of destroying tissue, leading to necrosis (tissue death) and sloughing off. <gulp>]
You are on the right track. Be CEO of your (or your loved one's) health. You may just save that life (seriously...the medical error stories I can tell...)By the way, a great read: AntiCancer A New Way of Life. Don't let the publication date deter you.
Cancer is a defense mechanism, not a disease. That is why your body works with it until you fix the underlying problems that caused it. Oncologists are just trained droids, mistrained droids actually.
The consolidation of all wealth, property, and sovereignty into a one world "administrative unit" continues at blinding speed driven by central bank currency counterfeiting. Norman Dodd discovered this conspiracy nearly 100 years ago:
It isn't ph balanced water you want. It is high ph water. The very moment we opted to go holistic ad cancel her masectomy the next day, we bought a Kangen unit and borrowed the savior lightwarrior's demo unit until ours arrived. It can make a number of different ph level waters. We give it to our dogs, cook with it, and take 9.2 photos water with us to the gym and when we go out. It is one of the 3 best/ most important things I believe you can do for good health / disease.
Hyperberic chambers are another excellent tool to restore and ensure health. Way out of my price range. Joe Rogan has one though, as well as a sauna and cold plunge fool. No fool he.
My understanding is that Obamacare was the catalyst for the growth of the regional health monopolies and consolidation of hospitals into groups that have then been acquired by companies like Unitedhealth. Independent doctors have a hard time meeting ACA requirements so they get vacuumed. It all seems to be part of a plan, whose plan I don’t know. Probably by the lobbyists who wrote the law and absolutely zero of our representatives read it, including Obama. This is what we get.
Yup. all true. It sure smells like the Rockefellers at work to me. As has been exposed, all of the big health insurance companies have seen a 10X explosion in their stock prices since Obongocare was implemented.
Yep, study found most colleges and universities have remedial math and language arts classes. How do you graduate high school without these basic skills??
… and Palisades CA… and before that … the 2018 camp fire Paradise CA… oh yes, many of us have been waiting for this little DARPA dustifing secret to be publicly outed…. Watch the 9/11 truthers to be all over this… thank you Mylar weather balloon and El Paso…
The fraud in government is so huge it’s unimaginable. The democrat judges from different states cannot be able to undo or fire people from the Trump administration. If so, nothing will ever be done again. It’s no different than finding one judge who can stop a presidential executive order.
We are effectively being run by the minority of the minority. Elections become irrelevant, and the voters wishes become irrelevant.
I’m no lawyer, but I can’t imagine the founding fathers wanted the executive branch of government to be at the whims of one single judge somewhere in the country.
If we never had trillion dollar deficits we wouldn't have but maybe a few billionaires. Billionaires are the byproduct of wasteful US government spending.
Just as we think we have hit rock bottom with all the corruption, we read some new finding that shatters our previous thoughts! Until Congress will do their job, nothing will change! And I believe that is the game plan of many who reside in Congress. They should be fired and sent home to get a another job. Stop sucking off the hard working taxpayers!!!!
Janice's bible verse this morning was very uplifting. And she's facing health issues. I hope you read her post, and are encouraged in the Lord. Cheers, Bones.
Q: How can the Homeland Security Committee hear testimony that $115 million every hour is going to fraud, and then the Congress simply go on to the next Committee hearing, never following up?
Trump can terminate all sorts of things, but one thing he will not do is stall his agenda to battle each and every one of Congress to do this. We have a do nothing Congress and to wait them out Mr. Trump will be sailing on his yacht 20 years from now. Mr. Trump is on a mission and WE THE PEOPLE need to get behind him. I don't like everything he does, but believe it or not he is out Last Best Hope. Better get on board or the Biden regime will look like child's play. Support him and his agenda (and that goes for the likes of Thomas Massie). Termites have come out of the woodwork to demand he answers for Epstein fallout when these termites have been supporting (or being blackmailed) by the Epstein cringe show.
Last Best Hope! Absolutely 100% accurate! If Team Demento regains power within the next 30 years, the US will revert to the trajectory of the last 50 - 100 years, and as you say, make the Biden regime look like child's play.
It may be too late already. Governments anything like ours have finite lifespans, in spite of the opportunity our founders passed down.
"Republicans are one safe election away from destroying the Democrat party. Democrats are one stolen election away from destroying America."
100% accurate, and you are right that We The People have a huge part to play in the this because President Trump didn't land us here, us being asleep at the wheel did.
I've been saying (and walking the walk, tyvm) that our job right now is to annoy every single R swamp critter via every outlet available, and remind them that if they keep FA'ing around, they will FO the hard way when those demonrats they've been rolling over for throw them in prison for the crime of loving this country.
All of us made a huge difference as “multipliers” for Jeff’s friend Warner Mendenhall.
NOW - let’s be multipliers for the SAVE ACT to help secure our elections with voter I.D. and only citizens voting! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
(202) 224-3121 is the Capitol Hill switchboard number. Please call your senators today and also call Senate Majority Leader Thune’s office -
1. Vote for the Save Act
2. If they don’t want to get rid of the filibuster completely, at Least get rid of the silent filibuster. Make the Dems spend time on their feet on the Senate floor talking the entire time! 🔥
I shouldn’t have laughed at that but I couldn’t help myself 😛 So frustrating about your Senator though 😕 I say, call anyway if only just to bug him and his staffers. Why should they go along their merry ways and not have to ever hear any criticism or dissenting voices??
I may call my Senator, Dick Durbin, and tell him to vote yes, that this may be the last thing he does before he faces indictment for treason and fraud. That may be wishful thinking on my part, but he will get the message.
I grew up in the days when DuPage County was the only Conservative collar county of Cook. I shudder to think of what NE IL is like now....🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 for sanity or justice.
Just suspend it. If they can make or take away any Senate rules. Suspend the silent filibuster for this vote. However, when the Dems get in charge they will suspend it too.
Jake, yes, agree. Of course the Dems will get rid of it (if we don’t get election fraud out of the system and they are able to return to power.) But somehow our side still plays by the Marquis of Queensbury rules. So it’s one step at a time although it had better be pretty fast. At least immediately get rid of the Silent Filibuster. There is no excuse not to.
Nothing makes me as wistful as seeing a picture of Jimmy Stewart in “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.” I guess I saw it at an impressionable age. I cling to the ideal, and to the belief that good, and good men, will prevail, even amid the corruption that has burgeoned in America on a massive scale. I always felt that when Jimmy Stewart died, though, the world tipped a bit on its axis.
He was the best. But sadly, it is not that politicss were not corrupt then. We simply did not have access to the information to know it. Kinda like just 3 TV channels, and even they signed off about midnight. Seriously, young people. Look it up.
Lolol AND waitress. “Honey fill up my coffee” “ok Dad.” He even taught me the trick to physics/movement up and down with the cup while walking so that it didn’t spill while walking it back from the kitchen to him. 🤣
Me too. Watched the funeral of President Kennedy when I was in second grade. I’d never seen all the adults in my world so shaken and sad. To this day the word “catafalque” can bring it all back. Had never heard it before. And the riderless horse … made an impression. So, we KNEW all was not sunshine and roses in our country, but we believed it anyway.
"A trillion dollars in government fraud, every year." Our government collects $4 trillion+ in taxes every year so that is 1/4 of the taxes collected. Think about how much money that is: 4000 x $1 billion or $4,000,000,000,000+.
I have always appreciated the fact that if you gave me $1,000,000 for every day that has passed since the birth of Jesus, 730,500 +/- days, I still would not have $1 trillion.
Just in from "Donald Trump For President" (on FB):
"$30 BILLION SAVED: Director Kevin Hassett Lays Out Trump’s Deficit-Slaying Blueprint 🚨
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett delivered a major fiscal update, revealing that the Trump administration has already slashed the federal workforce by 360,000 people, resulting in an immediate $30 billion annual savings for taxpayers.
The numbers signal a massive shift toward fiscal sanity after what Hassett described as years of "completely out of control" spending.
The federal deficit is down by approximately $600 billion this year alone.
High economic growth and record-breaking tariff revenue are fueling the Treasury’s rebound.
The 360,000-person reduction represents a permanent downsizing of the bloated federal bureaucracy.
DOGE & The Balanced Budget 🛡️🔍
Hassett credited the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for spearheading these "common sense" measures that have been demanded by voters for decades.
While some positions were eliminated, many workers left through buyouts and the Deferred Resignation Program, transitioning into a private sector that is currently "hiring like crazy".
Staffing and funds have been reoriented away from DEI and foreign aid and back toward core American priorities."
"It’s apparently true; one of the “drones” turned out to be a mylar party balloon."
In other news, a Wacky Wavy Arm Inflatable Tube Man was arrested shortly after having crossed the border, having holed up outside an El Paso Pep Boys franchise.
One of the drones? How many drones were there? The press makes it sound like there was only the balloon that was targeted. The balloon may have been a decoy if there were six to twelve targets. Something doesn't add up so far.
"I was at the grocery store loading bags into my car when I noticed a man in the parking lot with a beautiful golden retriever. He was kneeling beside the dog, crying and hugging him tightly. People walked past, trying not to stare. I couldn't help myself. 'Is your dog okay?'
He looked up, tears streaming down his face. 'He's perfect. That's the problem.' He wiped his eyes. 'I just lost my job and my apartment. I'm moving into my car tomorrow. I can't take care of him anymore. I'm waiting for the shelter to open so I can surrender him.'
The dog licked his owner's face, tail wagging, completely unaware. The man broke down again. 'I've had him for seven years. He's my best friend. But I can't feed him. I can't give him what he needs. I have to let him go.'
My heart shattered watching this. Without thinking, I said, 'What if he stays with me? Temporarily. Until you get back on your feet.' He stared at me like I'd spoken a different language. 'You don't even know me.' I knelt down and petted the dog. 'I know you love him enough to put his needs before your own. That tells me everything.' For the next four months, I kept that dog, fed him, walked him, loved him.
The man would visit once a week, spending hours playing with his best friend in my backyard. He'd always leave crying. Eventually, he found work, saved enough for an apartment, and came to take his dog home. The reunion was beautiful, the dog went absolutely crazy with joy. The man hugged me so hard I could barely breathe. 'You kept my family together when I thought I'd lost everything.' He still sends me photos of them together." —Michelle
Ohh Too precious for words. Thank you 🥰 It is crystal clear that the Lord created animals to complete our lives in a way we can’t always explain. HE knows what we need & when we need it. ♥️
Especially Golden Retrievers 😊 If you know, you know.
I’m a Lab guy myself, but considering GRs are also retrievers, I suppose they must have some redeeming qualities…;-)
Our first 'baby' was a Cream Golden that we got while living in the UK in the late 80's. It wouldn't be heaven if we didn't get to see that dog again up there. He was just the best.
Amen
All creatures great and small.
Indeed, the Lord God made them all!
WOW! I love and thank you for being so kind as well !
Omgosh you made me tear up! The Lord is mighty in you. God bless you and your sweet soul🥹Extraordinary!
As a guy who has two 14-year-old goldens that I'm looking at laying in my yard this morning, I suddenly found a whole lot of moisture in my eyes....
Is this real or fiction?
I am glad you asked. I hope real but if not i hope it inspires.
The reason we cannot tell if things are real or fake anymore is explained here: https://substack.com/@tritorch/note/c-152559737
Alas, it is deliberate assault against civilization itself. Jesus is necessary and the answer.
TriTorch my twin sis & I agree the one & only real deal is JESUS & His word. The situations happening in this world continue to point to HIM. Heavens our real home not this world.
HE is getting people’s attention.
100% Leslie.
"Outside of Christ, I am only a sinner, but in Christ, I am saved. Outside of Christ, I am empty; in Christ, I am full. Outside of Christ, I am weak; in Christ, I am strong. Outside of Christ, I cannot; in Christ, I am more than able. Outside of Christ, I have been defeated; in Christ, I am already victorious. How meaningful are the words, "in Christ." —Watchman Nee
Thanks. For the reminder
I would do it
TriTorch, I read your note about proof of identity soon being required to attest to the authenticity of anything a person posts to the internet.
To me, the deeper issue is about deception, an issue that goes back to the Garden of Eden when the serpent lied to Eve about the apple.
May I ask a provocative question: if something is not real, but inspirational (e.g. many, many works of art and fiction) does the authenticity of the author matter? If the Bible, or parts of it, were fiction, would it still be a worthwhile teaching tool or an effective guide to how to live one's life? At the risk of blasphemy, the same question could be applied to Jesus himself.
When you say, "I hope it's real, but if not, I hope it inspires" does the authenticity of the author even matter?
These are 'Plato's Cave', 'Simulacra and Simulation', and 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' questions about the nature of reality, fiction, and whether the impact of fiction on reality is a genuine expression or a counterfeit simulacra of one.
We could discuss this for days and never come to an answer, my friend.
I post this story today to uplift and inspire knowing a few things:
1) it could be fake
2) doubtless sometime in the long history of our world something exactly like this did happen, so in a way it is real
3) it would uplift and inspire regardless
Where does that leave us? In reality or simulation? I am not sure. Does it matter? Ah, that's your question. I do not know the answer.
Well i do know the answer: Christ—the one and only true antidote to satan’s deceptions.
Hmm. Interesting concept: “AI generated stories are a new genre of fiction.”
The problem is that they are presented as true.
But why does that matter if it’s really no different than such stories generated by HI? (Human Intelligence)
Maybe we should think of these stories as a kind of modern fable.
I purposefully did not apply mascara this morning knowing you’d be here, Tri. It was a wise choice.
Wow. This literally has me in tears. This is true deep kindness. Love of a stranger. I hope this is a true story.
This story is perfect, whether real or AI generated, to highlight a real life saga my wife and I have been up against for the last few months beginning around Thanksgiving. I was walking our Shih-Tzu at a local park and noticed a crammed full, older SUV parked there with a woman and teen-age girl standing behind the tailgate with a few dogs milling around their feet while they rearranged the car's contents. Sensing something was amiss, I asked them if everything was alright and the mother explained they were homeless and couldn't get housing because their three dogs were not accepted anywhere. She then pointed out her teen-age son sitting in their front seat who she said was autistic so that made for three humans and three large dogs camping out in one mid-sized SUV. Not knowing what to do about it, I gave her a twenty and wished her well but went home and told my wife about it and asked her to pray for a solution. Yesterday, I saw them again and though I've checked in with the mother a couple of times since then, I didn't have a solution for her dilemma. In recent weeks, her autistic son has gone to live with her brother, one dog, the smallest of the trio, died just this week and I told her about our travel trailer they could stay in until she could get into permanent housing but we couldn't accommodate the dogs so I asked if she had checked with the animal shelter downtown to which she replied it wasn't doable because they needed $50 per dog and she didn't have it. I told her we would pay that and she then asked her 14 year old daughter if that would be something she'd like. Her daughter said she couldn't do it if it meant giving up her German Shepherd to do so. Today, I'm supposed to check with them again because the mom promised to talk with her daughter about it last evening. I'm asking for prayer from my C&C friends, that the Lord would direct us as to how we can help this homeless mother and daughter with two dogs that they can't seem to give up even to benefit their own welfare, particularly that of a 14 year old girl who just happens to bear the same first name as my own 14 year old granddaughter.
As a dog lover, I hope that the mother puts the needs of her daughter first. The girl has already been through too much to give up her dog also. That dog may be keeping her going. What if the shelter kills it?
Just my two cents.
Mrs. RW
Such a beautiful story Michelle-
Makes me ponder what I would do. Walk on by, or stop, ask, and take action? I think at least stop....I am pretty sure of that much.
This is very important work. I held a dog for a man whose X said come get the dog today or he goes to the pound, only the man's apartment didn't allow dogs. One month later he managed to relocate and reclaim Buddy. He still, to this day, thanks me for that small service, and Buddy is long gone to his reward.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful story - the perfect start for my day (tears of happiness)! ❤️
As a dog lover myself, this pulls on my "heart strings" which I find to be more sensitive the older I get. This in turn causes me to reflect (as I cannot gaze long) on all the babies and young children that have been abused and killed by the Epstein network pedos. There is nothing more precious than a young child - not even a dog.
Wow, what a beautiful thing to do for someone in such a sad dire situation. Both men, along with the dog, received joy from this act of kindness. ❤️🩹
That is so beautiful, tears of Joy, I did the same for someone and she has yet to bring her dog over. I hope this means she found a way to keep him. Thank you
This past summer I was installing some windows for a cousin. I mentioned all of our family that have passed away and asked him if he thought he would see them again? He paused and said, no. He asked me what I thought and I said yes I believe we will. He was surprised and asked “really?” I said yes, I really do believe. I’ve had similar conversations with my wife about believing there is something after our time here.
In many situations we have to believe without seeing. Just looking back over the past 6 years we knew things were horribly wrong. Along the way we prayed for things to get back to normal. For years nothing seemed to change, things at times got worse, but we kept praying and believing some sense of common good would return.
The other day I was talking with a friend, Barbara Lee, and she said “Pray, worship God with gratitude and live in the thought that good will prevail. I personally feel quite hopeful”. We should all think and live this way,
This past September my brother came up to New Hampshire for a visit. There’s been a family of Bald Eagles living around the lake and just as we were talking about them one flew right over our heads, what a beautiful majestic sight. In the scriptures there are many comparisons to the life of a believer and an eagle.
When a mother eagle is going to have a baby eagle she lays her egg. For thirty five days she has to sit on the egg to keep it warm. She never feels the eaglet kick, the egg doesn’t grow any larger. There’s no sign that what’s on the inside of the egg is alive. The mother eagle could think if it was alive it would move a little bit. At least she would hear something. But day after day the mother eagle sits unmoved by what she doesn’t feel. Unmoved by what’s not changing.
On the thirty fifth day after no signs of life suddenly the little eaglet starts pecking its way out of the shell. Before long it hatches healthy and whole. Think about the faith it takes for that mother eagle to sit on that egg that seems dead. Many times, like the mother eagle, you are going to have to believe something is happening when you can’t see any sign of it. Your going to have to sit on that promise, believing, expecting, praying, thanking, when your not feeling anything moving, when your not seeing any growth. Deep down she must know something is happening that she can’t see. There’s something in the eagles DNA, something put in her by the creator that says I don’t have to see a sign, I don’t have to feel a kick, I know my baby is alive, I know my due season is coming. I know on the thirty fifth day this baby eaglet is going to hatch. This is a reality of Gods influence, providence and creation, where science as an explanation ends and the divine becomes the unquestionable answer.
You may have promises you’ve been standing on for a long time, dreams God has placed in your heart. Every circumstance says it’s never going to happen, what you’re believing for is dead. It would have kicked by now. You would have seen some improvement, some growth. Keep your faith. We have to keep praying, keep thanking God, it’s coming. We have to walk by faith not sight. The creator is going to deliver what’s in my spirit. As we have witnessed things can change, our prayers can come true.
We all will come to a time in our lives when we must believe because there is no other path to take. It may happen differently for some, someone that has refused to believe, but all of the unanswered questions of the mysteries of faith will one day be answered. It may not happen exactly as some may have thought, but we all will find God one day. One day all of us will return to the religion our parents gave to us. Keep praying, keep thanking God and keep living in faith. J.Goodrich
Where do you find these wonderful stories? Thank you James.
"Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith." —Henry Ward Beecher
Funny how it always gets back to attitude.
“Where focus goes energy flows”
Faith of a mustard seed! I have never not believed and I believe with my heart, body, Soul, mind and all I got. God is my best friend, confidante and my Lord. What a triple win that is! And I have 3 in 1 which is an even more terrific mystery!
I would rather believe in God than not believe even if it turns out that God doesn't exist because my life is better for having believed. My husband and I have conversations about God, also. He always says that we can't see God but neither can we see oxygen, yet we know it is there. I married a really great guy! But having said all of that, the circumstances that led my husband and me to be together are far too crazy to believe it wasn't divine intervention.
James this is beautiful! Deep in our hearts lies a homing beacon and a sense that things aren't the way they ought to be. Then we hear the call of Jesus and that He paid our ransom with His death, and how He defeated death through His resurrection, and that if we call on the Lord and run to Him we will be saved. Then we learn about the spiritual battle that we're in, and that the temporary ruler of this world is satan. But it doesn't end there because Jesus is coming again to claim what is rightfully his. He announced His mission when He read Isaiah 61 when He began His ministry. He will judge and punish the devil, his angels and the wicked, and be coronated King in Zion (Jerusalem for the Portlanders😂). And He will reverse the curse (Genesis 3), and restore all things to the way He intended. And we will partake in its blessings and rule and reign with Him for 1000 years- the wolf will lie down with the lamb, the young boy play with the cobra (Isaiah 11), and then the best is yet to come -into eternity's wild adventures with no more sin, pain, death or mourning. Come Lord Jesus. Maranatha!

Friends, it will happen. Looking forward to meeting you all.
Just keep Praying! There was a time (a few years ago) I thought all hope was lost. I struggled Big time but kept the faith that Gods promises had not ended. Some days I had thought we would never be "here" again. You know, living a somewhat normal life. All Glory to God as His mercy never ends.
Amen, Amen, Amen! We all have to keep reminding ourselves. Thank you.
🙏🏽
James, this is so well put. The phrase “ye of little faith” or better yet “me of little faith” comes to mind. As I assess a lifetime of hard evidence of our God’s powerful protection and guidance through my worries and “calamities”, I should be much better at trusting him for solutions to today’s “problems.” His solutions have always been better than my wildest dreams. You, Jeff and so many others in this tribe testify daily to the reality that “all things work together for good to those who love God”..Romans 8:28. Thank you!
James, wonderful to read this today 🙏🏻
And also, there are verses in the Bible about praying for our dead, who may not have believed (that we know of). 🙏
Beautiful, James. Thank you for your insight.
“This is a reality of Gods influence, providence and creation, where science as an explanation ends and the divine becomes the unquestionable answer.”
Love the way that is worded.
But
We CAN know what we believe is real. God gave us proof in Jesus. Everything hinges on whether or not he lived, was indeed the son of God, and was raised from the dead. If that were true then everything else Jesus said is reliable. It would benefit more people to put their energies into investigating the truth of Jesus. They will find there’s more indisputable evidence that would hold up in our present day courts than they realize.
Right!? I read a book in the early eighty's written by a woman who did just that-- poured through the Bible determined to prove that Jesus was not the messiah. She could not, and so became a believer herself.
Amen. Thank you for this beautiful blessing of hope and gratitude.

Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia—in order to complete the word of Yahweh from the mouth of Jeremiah—Yahweh stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he had a proclamation pass throughout all his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying:
“Thus says Cyrus king of Persia,
‘Yahweh, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and He has appointed me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.’”

Praying for you, dear Janice, for your doctors and nurses, that everything will go smoothly with no complications, and that your time with your grandbaby is "the most bestest" (quoted from a 3-year old niece)!!
Mrs. "the Knife"
I love this, especially since so many bible scholars see Trump as very much a modern day Cyrus.
Praying for you!
It comforts me greatly to understand that God Most High can do whatever He wants and use whomever He wills.
AMEN!
And i will be praying for you today!
Yes, I see him as that. Trump was raised up by Yahweh for our times.
Not if he bombs the Persians of Iran. Cyrus loved them.
It went right over your head, didn’t it……Whooooosh!!
🙏 for you, Janice!
Prayers said for you, Janice.
just praying too
Praying for you today! 🙏🏻
Thank you again Janice, and may Yahweh keep you well today. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah are about the rebuilding of the temple, the foundations of Jerusalem, and the restoration of the the worship of Yahweh. The remnant of Judah and the tribes of Israel that returned from captivity, rebuilding the walls and rededicating themselves.
Be well dear Janice. I pray your procedure goes well.
Praying for you Janice!! 🙏🙏🙏
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I will take all those prayers! 🫶
Praying for your Swift & complete recovery!

Every day, more and more independent doctors retire or join massive Health conglomerates. . Here Valley Health is Gobbling up everything in site. It is the same elsewhere, and with vets too . Something like 3/4 of all doctors and vets now work for conglomerates or in a hospital. With this set up, and the omnipitent standards of care, doctors cannot follow their own agenda even if they wanted to. As the article says, modern medicine excels at emergency care, but not so much at chronic care. For my own 2 cents, it is an utter failure at chronic care.
The article also says 90 % of people have limited medical literacy . Duh. I had limited health literacy until my wife was diagnosed with cancer. But I reprioritized my life, read nothing but cancer books, watched cancer podcasts, talked to cancer light warriors. The internet now makes this incredibly easy and comprehensive. And yes, books are still irreplaceable, especially for health research because books cannot be censored. Hard to find and get sometimes especially cancer books, but not censored or altered like CIApedia. I say now with all humility, believe I know more about cancer and nutrition than 90 % of doctors.
Stop using your incredibly powerful smart phone as a toy, photo storage, and a shopping play thing. Research whatever ails you or your loved ones as if your life depends on it, because it very well might.

We cured Mom’s stage 4 lung cancer within about 30 days using a simple product that goes by several names, blood root paste, black salve, Indian ointment and so on.
I have used it from a few different sources over the years but my most trusted one is now about $130/jar. A jar or 2 will do the job.
We smeared it on Mom’s back, over her lung with the tumors. At first, it didn’t do a THING but several days in, it made 15-16 tiny canker sores— which (not kidding!) MIGRATED together to make 3 big canker sores, DIRECTLY ON TOP of the tumors, AND the same size and shape of them, looking at x-rays!!! Within days, each sire was oozing all different colors and gross textures of fluid. We changed the paste and bandage every couple of days. Pain was not a biggie, always controlled by simple ship it aspirin (NEVER TYLENOL!) and was more of an odd tugging sensation, than pain. Mom said it felt like someone had a rubber band attached to spots on her lung.
When all the gunk oozed out, over maybe 20 days, the sores slowly closed and the whole area looked like those pink areas you get after a scab comes off. A year or so later, they weren’t even pink. They looked like new skin, that you really had to search to find— and that was ME, looking for the very areas I had doctored for days!
The cancer was “incurable but we can do things to make you live longer and have a decent quality of life” —with mets, to the liver and I think brain?
Anyway, we went to the oncologist after she had had a battery of tests and x-rays.
He said, “You have ZERO living cancer cells in your body!”
When asked how that had happened, when she had stopped chemo and everything months prior, he said, “whatever we did, worked”.
The issue is, “we” didn’t do anything! She stopped ALL treatment
immediately after a full battery of tests, which said her tumors were shrinking but she was still declining and wouldn’t live, and had mets!
SHE applied blood root, and 2-3x she rolled it into a pea sized ball and took it orally as well, although her increased her nausea. That is ALL!!
So the cure— was 100% blood root!
She lived several years and died of a bad fall.
7seven5 three24 four8eightnine is the place I trust most. Robert will help you. He is in AZ, so don’t wake him up like I once did!
Thank you so much for sharing that. We have some black salve, but have not used it. I will file your comment in my cancer folder. There are literally hundreds of ways to reverse cancer, and publicizing any of them to a large audience puts your own life in jeopardy. I have read of many who have died suddenly as a result, and many more who were ruined financially, or imprisoned. What a system.
Thank you for sharing this. I am screen saving it! Bless all of you for helping Mom, bless her for her openmindedness and bless the extra years she had with all of you and of course, adorations to God for the cure and her extra years.
Beautiful! Congratulations. May your mother have a long and full life ahead of her. Blessings to you and your family. ❤️🔥
Where did you purchase the kind you like?
Kim, KC put the phone number in the last line.
I see it now - thanks.
AI says twofeathers.com is the website for Two Feathers, LLC, aka Two Feathers Healing Formula or Two Feathers Inc., a business based in Reno, Nevada (with a mailing address of PO Box 8033, Reno, NV 89507). It offers free consultation by phone, and the phone number is on the website.
Two Feathers is a small family-run company that sells a product called Two Feathers Healing Formula—a traditional Native American herbal remedy (often described as a black salve or escharotic paste) marketed for skin care, detox, or support for various conditions (though they disclaim medical claims and note it's not a medicine).
For skin conditions like wounds, cuts, sores, ringworm, ulcers, skin infections, warts, polyps, and even as a treatment for skin growths or cancers (in some accounts), it was applied as a paste, salve, or fresh sap.
[I know you're dying to know, so: "escharotic" is a medical term for a substance (or agent) that produces a thick, dry, black or brown scab-like crust of dead tissue (called an eschar) on the skin or mucous membranes. It means caustic, corrosive, or capable of destroying tissue, leading to necrosis (tissue death) and sloughing off. <gulp>]
Praise GOD for hesling! And
"Robert" in AZ has a "Northern NV Reno" phone. We've many Functional Medicine Homeopathic Oncology physicians here, Bless you for the shout out.
You are on the right track. Be CEO of your (or your loved one's) health. You may just save that life (seriously...the medical error stories I can tell...)By the way, a great read: AntiCancer A New Way of Life. Don't let the publication date deter you.
Here’s another piece on cancer - how cancer is a defense mechanism and how modern treatments kill people but we blame cancer: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/cancer-your-bodys-desperate-attempt
Cancer is a defense mechanism, not a disease. That is why your body works with it until you fix the underlying problems that caused it. Oncologists are just trained droids, mistrained droids actually.
I wonder what AI says will cure cancer.

Did you run across hyperbaric chambers and pH balanced water? Cancer is 100% curable. It has been for decades.
It isn't ph balanced water you want. It is high ph water. The very moment we opted to go holistic ad cancel her masectomy the next day, we bought a Kangen unit and borrowed the savior lightwarrior's demo unit until ours arrived. It can make a number of different ph level waters. We give it to our dogs, cook with it, and take 9.2 photos water with us to the gym and when we go out. It is one of the 3 best/ most important things I believe you can do for good health / disease.
Hyperberic chambers are another excellent tool to restore and ensure health. Way out of my price range. Joe Rogan has one though, as well as a sauna and cold plunge fool. No fool he.
My understanding is that Obamacare was the catalyst for the growth of the regional health monopolies and consolidation of hospitals into groups that have then been acquired by companies like Unitedhealth. Independent doctors have a hard time meeting ACA requirements so they get vacuumed. It all seems to be part of a plan, whose plan I don’t know. Probably by the lobbyists who wrote the law and absolutely zero of our representatives read it, including Obama. This is what we get.
Yup. all true. It sure smells like the Rockefellers at work to me. As has been exposed, all of the big health insurance companies have seen a 10X explosion in their stock prices since Obongocare was implemented.
They also are forced $ to refer to others in the network.
Don't worry. They now have remedial math at Harvard.
Yep, study found most colleges and universities have remedial math and language arts classes. How do you graduate high school without these basic skills??
I have no idea. We are living in the realm of idiocy on so many levels. But 2+2 can =5.
It's becoming essential for us to take full control/responsibility of our health and life styles.
So the government does have "directed energy weapon"... Somewhere in Hawaii there are people saying.... "We told you so...."

And 911
And many many more I'm sure.
I was thinking the same thing.

The fraud in government is so huge it’s unimaginable. The democrat judges from different states cannot be able to undo or fire people from the Trump administration. If so, nothing will ever be done again. It’s no different than finding one judge who can stop a presidential executive order.
We are effectively being run by the minority of the minority. Elections become irrelevant, and the voters wishes become irrelevant.
I’m no lawyer, but I can’t imagine the founding fathers wanted the executive branch of government to be at the whims of one single judge somewhere in the country.
Eliminate the fraud, and you eliminate our national deficit.
Exactly !!
If we never had trillion dollar deficits we wouldn't have but maybe a few billionaires. Billionaires are the byproduct of wasteful US government spending.
Just as we think we have hit rock bottom with all the corruption, we read some new finding that shatters our previous thoughts! Until Congress will do their job, nothing will change! And I believe that is the game plan of many who reside in Congress. They should be fired and sent home to get a another job. Stop sucking off the hard working taxpayers!!!!
Honestly, despite Jeffs humor I’m not enjoying this post because it’s about snafus in government that irritate the living crap out of me.
Our system like every system favors corruption. Seeing it so clearly is depressing in the morning.
Janice's bible verse this morning was very uplifting. And she's facing health issues. I hope you read her post, and are encouraged in the Lord. Cheers, Bones.
Snafu? Planned operation since the Federal Reserve Act by the bankers.
You know how we could stop the trillion dollars in fraud? Don't fu*$ng fund it to begin with.
If I fault Trump for anything, the biggest is his inability or unwillingness to just say no to the huge funding bills and/or continuing resolutions.
AND the inability or unwillingness to message effectively.
Q: How can the Homeland Security Committee hear testimony that $115 million every hour is going to fraud, and then the Congress simply go on to the next Committee hearing, never following up?
A: Congress is in on it.
Trump can terminate all sorts of things, but one thing he will not do is stall his agenda to battle each and every one of Congress to do this. We have a do nothing Congress and to wait them out Mr. Trump will be sailing on his yacht 20 years from now. Mr. Trump is on a mission and WE THE PEOPLE need to get behind him. I don't like everything he does, but believe it or not he is out Last Best Hope. Better get on board or the Biden regime will look like child's play. Support him and his agenda (and that goes for the likes of Thomas Massie). Termites have come out of the woodwork to demand he answers for Epstein fallout when these termites have been supporting (or being blackmailed) by the Epstein cringe show.
Last Best Hope! Absolutely 100% accurate! If Team Demento regains power within the next 30 years, the US will revert to the trajectory of the last 50 - 100 years, and as you say, make the Biden regime look like child's play.
It may be too late already. Governments anything like ours have finite lifespans, in spite of the opportunity our founders passed down.
Signed,
Debbie Downer
Hence the importance of the midterms!
Be Well, Be Blessed, Phillip
I saw a tweet earlier that said:
"Republicans are one safe election away from destroying the Democrat party. Democrats are one stolen election away from destroying America."
100% accurate, and you are right that We The People have a huge part to play in the this because President Trump didn't land us here, us being asleep at the wheel did.
I've been saying (and walking the walk, tyvm) that our job right now is to annoy every single R swamp critter via every outlet available, and remind them that if they keep FA'ing around, they will FO the hard way when those demonrats they've been rolling over for throw them in prison for the crime of loving this country.
So true. Not a single $ has been cut no matter how much the blow smoke up our ass.
It's only the amount of the war budget.
We were always ruled by these tax exempt foundations. Look at the list on PBS that control your thoughts.

All of us made a huge difference as “multipliers” for Jeff’s friend Warner Mendenhall.
NOW - let’s be multipliers for the SAVE ACT to help secure our elections with voter I.D. and only citizens voting! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
(202) 224-3121 is the Capitol Hill switchboard number. Please call your senators today and also call Senate Majority Leader Thune’s office -
1. Vote for the Save Act
2. If they don’t want to get rid of the filibuster completely, at Least get rid of the silent filibuster. Make the Dems spend time on their feet on the Senate floor talking the entire time! 🔥
Pretty sure my Senators office number goes straight to the Quality Learing Center.
I shouldn’t have laughed at that but I couldn’t help myself 😛 So frustrating about your Senator though 😕 I say, call anyway if only just to bug him and his staffers. Why should they go along their merry ways and not have to ever hear any criticism or dissenting voices??
I may call my Senator, Dick Durbin, and tell him to vote yes, that this may be the last thing he does before he faces indictment for treason and fraud. That may be wishful thinking on my part, but he will get the message.
Do it!!! 😁
I grew up in the days when DuPage County was the only Conservative collar county of Cook. I shudder to think of what NE IL is like now....🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 for sanity or justice.
In Washington state also?
Just called Thune and left a message.
Just suspend it. If they can make or take away any Senate rules. Suspend the silent filibuster for this vote. However, when the Dems get in charge they will suspend it too.
Jake, yes, agree. Of course the Dems will get rid of it (if we don’t get election fraud out of the system and they are able to return to power.) But somehow our side still plays by the Marquis of Queensbury rules. So it’s one step at a time although it had better be pretty fast. At least immediately get rid of the Silent Filibuster. There is no excuse not to.
"Whole Foods doesn’t train 30,000 observers to bombard cop cars with frozen water bottles." Are you sure?
The Venn diagram of those who work at Whole Foods and those who protest could be almost a completely covered circle.
Good Morning Everyone! Nothing better than my coffee with C&C! Thank you Jeff for the best part of my day!
Add a cookie 😊 it’s just the best
Nothing makes me as wistful as seeing a picture of Jimmy Stewart in “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.” I guess I saw it at an impressionable age. I cling to the ideal, and to the belief that good, and good men, will prevail, even amid the corruption that has burgeoned in America on a massive scale. I always felt that when Jimmy Stewart died, though, the world tipped a bit on its axis.
He was the best. But sadly, it is not that politicss were not corrupt then. We simply did not have access to the information to know it. Kinda like just 3 TV channels, and even they signed off about midnight. Seriously, young people. Look it up.
I grew up with 3 TV channels. 2 were the same programming and one was snow. Not even joking LOL Those were the Best times!
PS I was my parents "remote control" ROFLOL
Yeah. Kids could not imagine having to get up to change the channel. Or one TV in a home, if you were lucky. Or all black and white.
Lolol AND waitress. “Honey fill up my coffee” “ok Dad.” He even taught me the trick to physics/movement up and down with the cup while walking so that it didn’t spill while walking it back from the kitchen to him. 🤣
Such a stinker he was
Same!!
Me too. Watched the funeral of President Kennedy when I was in second grade. I’d never seen all the adults in my world so shaken and sad. To this day the word “catafalque” can bring it all back. Had never heard it before. And the riderless horse … made an impression. So, we KNEW all was not sunshine and roses in our country, but we believed it anyway.
Some one knew it, made movies about it and funded the liberal elitists by making a terrific front guy and taking half of more of the winnings.
"A trillion dollars in government fraud, every year." Our government collects $4 trillion+ in taxes every year so that is 1/4 of the taxes collected. Think about how much money that is: 4000 x $1 billion or $4,000,000,000,000+.
I have always appreciated the fact that if you gave me $1,000,000 for every day that has passed since the birth of Jesus, 730,500 +/- days, I still would not have $1 trillion.

Just in from "Donald Trump For President" (on FB):
"$30 BILLION SAVED: Director Kevin Hassett Lays Out Trump’s Deficit-Slaying Blueprint 🚨
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett delivered a major fiscal update, revealing that the Trump administration has already slashed the federal workforce by 360,000 people, resulting in an immediate $30 billion annual savings for taxpayers.
The numbers signal a massive shift toward fiscal sanity after what Hassett described as years of "completely out of control" spending.
The federal deficit is down by approximately $600 billion this year alone.
High economic growth and record-breaking tariff revenue are fueling the Treasury’s rebound.
The 360,000-person reduction represents a permanent downsizing of the bloated federal bureaucracy.
DOGE & The Balanced Budget 🛡️🔍
Hassett credited the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for spearheading these "common sense" measures that have been demanded by voters for decades.
While some positions were eliminated, many workers left through buyouts and the Deferred Resignation Program, transitioning into a private sector that is currently "hiring like crazy".
Staffing and funds have been reoriented away from DEI and foreign aid and back toward core American priorities."
Or, looking at another way: If 1 trillion of the four goes to defense, then one third of the remainder is eaten up by fraud.
That's about $2800/every AMERICAN?!
"It’s apparently true; one of the “drones” turned out to be a mylar party balloon."
In other news, a Wacky Wavy Arm Inflatable Tube Man was arrested shortly after having crossed the border, having holed up outside an El Paso Pep Boys franchise.
One of the drones? How many drones were there? The press makes it sound like there was only the balloon that was targeted. The balloon may have been a decoy if there were six to twelve targets. Something doesn't add up so far.
Haha.
