"toadlike undersecretary Victoria Nuland"

The kindest words ever written about that demon. 👿

John Galt?'s avatar

With apologies to toads...

RunningLogic's avatar

Right?? What an insult to the poor toads!

Lori's avatar

especially with apologies to our toad friends.

Ol' Doc Skepsis's avatar

I feel compelled to note that no toads were harmed in the posting of my comment.

Navyo Ericsen's avatar

Are you toad-positive?

Ol' Doc Skepsis's avatar

I strongly reject discrimination among amphibia 😎

Lori's avatar

So glad to hear it!

Sandi Trisler's avatar

This made me laugh out loud - hugely - thanks

DaveL's avatar

She was there in 2014 helping to overthrow the elected government of Ukraine, it's worth remembering. Toadlike--perfect!

SHug's avatar

She, along with many others that Tulsi should NAME, deserve to be at hard labor in prisons.

Cheryl Schroeder's avatar

If only - no one so far has paid the price for this- maybe old man bush?, maybe not. I’d support whole heartedly a public trial for crimes against humanity

Navyo Ericsen's avatar

Just leave out the V from Vicky and you get Icky Nuland.

RunningLogic's avatar

That is perfect 🤣🤣🤣😁😁😁

Ol' Doc Skepsis's avatar

LOL

Rhetorical question: where are her ancestors from, and why did they change their name to Nuland from Nudelman?

SHug's avatar

Jewish (from Ukraine and Poland): occupational name for a tailor or a maker of needles from Yiddish dialect nudl ‘needle’ + man ‘man’.

So verrrrry surprising.

Navyo Ericsen's avatar

Nudel is too close to noodle.

Demon is an understatement 👹

Baldmichael's avatar

Toad is right. Victoria Nuland anagrams to:

- toad in VC urinal

Ol' Doc Skepsis's avatar

Wondering what VC might stand for??? Viet Cong? Vulture capitalist?

Baldmichael's avatar

Yes, I gave it no thought at the time. I like your Vulture Capitalist.

I had a look onlline for ideas and came up with

- Visually Clean

- Vienna Conference

- Vomiting Centre

I think I will plump for the last!

Patience

I can only hope we’ve all had a person that loved us and encouraged us no matter where we were at any time or place in our life. At times we all need someone that will wait on us. Someone that will keep praying and keep speaking faith into our future. Someone that will believe in us when we didn’t believe in ourselves. Someone that covered us in mercy, not judgement, not find fault but will love us back into wholeness.

We often write people off too easily. Where they are now, is not where they’re going to end up. We shouldn’t judge people by the present. Some of the people we’re tempted to write off are chosen vessels, all they need is for someone to wait on them. Someone to say yes they may be off course but I’m going to give them a call, take them to lunch, let them know I’m thinking of them, that I believe in them. Not to judge them, not to straighten them out but just to say I love you.

Sometimes I think about how many times God has waited on me. He waited when I was off coarse, he waited when I wouldn’t forgive, he waited when I was compromised, when I had the wrong friends,. He could have said that’s it I’m done with you, but he waited, he showed me mercy. He picked me up when I fell, he waited when I was bitter, he waited when I didn’t believe.

Sometimes it’s good to look back and say Lord thank you for waiting on me. Lord thank You for giving me another chance. Thank You for cleaning up the mess I made. Thank You for covering me when I didn’t deserve it. God has waited on all of us, now he’s asking will you wait on someone for Him.

Growing up my mother was the matriarch of our family. She was the driving force that brought a positive future view too each one of us kids. She brought God and religion into our house, and into our family. This began before the 4 of us kids were born, she brought God into my father’s life. My father and his family struggled through the depression, they didn’t practice religion. My mother waited on him.

When we were kids many times my father would take the 4 of us kids to church while my mother stayed home and prepared the family Sunday dinner. I know my father enjoyed taking us to church, he knew he was helping place the goodness of God into our lives, it was something he never had. ( I wish I could go back to those days).

When my brother Paul was getting confirmed he needed a sponsor and my father wanted to sponsor him but couldn’t because he had never been confirmed. Before my brother was confirmed a priest from the parish sponsored my father, he was confirmed, and then he sponsored my brother Paul, something I’ll always remember. My mother’s patience had certainly paid off.

In proverbs it says train up a child and when they are old they will not depart from it. You may have a child that has gone off coarse. The good news is they have been trained to know the Lord. That faith was deposited into their spirit. Proverbs intentionally doesn’t speak about the middle of life. They may get off track. You may not see how they are going to get back on track, what are you supposed to do?, wait on them, keep encouraging, keep praying, keep loving them. You keep praying and things are happening. In the end they will come back to God.

We’re not here to convict people, the Holy Spirit is the one that convicts. Our job is just to plant the seeds. The scripture says love never fails. God waited on you now it’s time we wait on them. Don’t give up on prayer, encouragement, helping someone in need. It’s the goodness of God that will lead them to repentance. We’re all on a journey don’t stop loving those around you, love never fails. Happy Saturday! Hope you all have a Great weekend. J.Goodrich

Girl on the move's avatar

James this is beautiful. And timely, as I have a family member on whom I won’t give up. It’s tough and others question me. But everything you said here resonates. Thank you 🥰

Sue Rosenthal's avatar

Happy Saturday to you too! Beautiful words. Thanks for the encouragement!!

Claudia Marshall's avatar

What a beautiful testimony to God's greatness! My Mother also planted the seed in my dysfunctional family and I wouldn't be here today without His loving hand guiding me throughout my entire life.

DS's avatar

Thank you, James, for this comment. There have been many times in my life that I remind myself that, God NEVER gave up on me. Thanks again!

Maureen ODH's avatar

Beautiful words today James G…. Absolutely outstanding Saturday report Jeff!!!

“ Lord thank you for waiting on me. Lord thank You for giving me another chance. Thank You for cleaning up the mess I made. Thank You for covering me when I didn’t deserve it.”…. will definitely add this beautiful gratitude verse to my nightly and morning prayers… 🤲💗🤲 Thank you James… God bless 🙏

Susan Daniels's avatar

It's obvious that you have never been comfronted by someone with a machete, or a gun. May your good luck continue.

GG's avatar

What in the world?!

How is your comment relevant to what James Goodrich wrote?

Why would you respond to a comment about offering encouragement to those who have gone astray with your own about being violently threatened? What’s your point? Are you trying to cause dissension? Anger? Animosity?

Are you a troll?

I’m lost. This seems like such a non sequitur. Is it possible you responded to the wrong comment?

Debi Lutman's avatar

No she’s not a troll. But a James, or one like he’s admonishing us to become, is what is needed here. We don’t know what others have been through, experienced. I believe she is a vessel that’s on a mission. Maybe when it’s fulfilled, she may be able to receive messages like his. (His essentially ✝️)

nancy's avatar

Look at it as a reminder to never let your guard down. Many have failed because they were not always aware of danger. Sad I know, but be realistic.

GG's avatar

I don’t think what James Goodrich posted encouraged anyone to let their guard down. You can keep loving someone and praying for the best for them without making yourself vulnerable to physical violence. It was a really weird response to an encouraging post.

Susan Daniels's avatar

Encouraging but pollyanna-ish. Only a person who has never felt endangered in any way could have written that.

J Boss's avatar

That's not true, that only someone who has never felt endangered could not write that.

Only someone consumed by the fear would find it impossible.

One can and should stand guard, ready to protect and defend. But one can learn to do that without losing one's humanity and compassion, with enough time and faith.

Most of humanity, at least in America, is good or at least not bad. I pray you see and experience that.

Karmy's avatar

Not really. There are many people who have prayed when their lives were endangered yet they have been helped by God. His Will be done. If you are meant to not be helped that is God's Will. He has His plan, it may not be yours but there is His reason for everything. Don't forget that.

mspring's avatar

Susan, it's the world we have always lived in. We see more, because the 24/7 news media shoves it in our faces. The stabbing was in UK, but it happens every weekend in Detroit, and tens of times/weekend in Chicago, tho they tend to use guns vs knives. It has been like this in those Democrat run cities for generations. We didn't hear about it, but it existed. Given that our cosmos/world is irredeemably evil and has been since almost the beginning, James' posting is still important, perhaps more so in that light.

Susan Daniels's avatar

We are living in a dangerous world now.

Karmy's avatar

All the more reason to have faith in God. Trust in Jesus. He will not forsake you.

Butte Bill's avatar

Yes. If someone were to break into our home at midnight, my wife would insist on the young man sitting down while she fixed tea so that they could talk. I would ask her to take her time so I could remember the combination to our gun safe. And who knows? Perhaps her approach works mo better.

Susan Daniels's avatar

Some people actually think this way. They are called statistics.

Karmy's avatar

You are not a believer. That's my take on you. You are negative and think of the downside. You have no trust or belief in God. Perhaps you should revisit that.

SHug's avatar

Karmy, God helps those who helps themselves. Evil IS real and does infest people; some people reject God and lean into evil. I trust God. I do not trust those who might do me harm or the will of man. I carry every day and am an excellent shot. I see those as gifts God chose to give to me and I am grateful for those gifts I worked to strengthen once I discovered them. I do not go hunting people, not even bad people, but I will protect me & mine from any harm I am able to. I may cry afterwards and have sorrow for having to do something I did not want to do, but at least I will be around and able to do so.

Perhaps you should revisit what gifts you have been given, instead of calling out someone for the horrible things she has witnessed and judging her for seeing.

Btw - Leaving your own safety in the hands of another person has nothing to do with being a believer or not. It is a gift TO you that someone else bears the weight of. Who is carrying that weight? Do you have security people poised at your church? Are you aware of why? Will you judge them if they must act?

Do you denigrate police who sometimes have to do bad things to stop worse things? I thank them heavily and am very grateful they were also given gifts to see and protect & serve others and pray for their safety and their burdens to be made lighter for them to carry just as they carry their duty belt. Those burdens and the awful things they see daily can be very heavy on the soul. How often do you pray for them instead of judging how they see things?

And Susan, I will also pray for your burdens to be lightened. <3 Seeing the evil people can do is weighty on the heart and mind.

Susan Daniels's avatar

You know nothing about me so please stop making accusations.

Susan Daniels's avatar

Encouraging but pollyanna-ish. Only a person who has never felt endangered in any way could have written that.

Holly's avatar

It sounds to me like you have been a victim in a horrible situation. I can only sympathize; a woman is no match for a perp with a machete or a gun.

James Goodrich's avatar

As you said to Karmy Susan, you know nothing about me, but yet you say I’ve never been confronted by someone with a machete or a gun, which honestly has nothing whatsoever to do with my post. You get upset when someone makes assumptions about you but you’re fine making assumptions about others.

Susan Daniels's avatar

Time to stop carrying on this conversation. Can we please move on?

James Goodrich's avatar

That was my first reply to you.

Susan Daniels's avatar

Sorry. I must have mixed you up with someone else. Nevertheless, can we move on.

Happy Sunday sermon, God Bless you, my friend.

Karmy's avatar

To James Goodrich. "In proverbs it says train up a child and when they are old they will not depart from it."

Yes, this is why the marxists go after our children.

Jesus loves us; that is why He would never forsake us even though we wander away from Him or sin. He just wants us to come back to Him. Praise be to God.

Bones's avatar

I knew all along that the bio labs were the provocation for that war

The Biden’s suck

Lydia Lozano's avatar

What few people understand is enough Russian history to realize what Putin's motives are. From the 17th century forward, Russia has been most primarily concerned with creating a circle of buffer states around its homeland to protect it from repeated invasions by nations such as Mongolia, France, Germany, the Ottoman Empire, Poland, Sweden and Japan. Even Peter the Great and especially Peter the Great was concerned with territorial security. This has been, and is, the habit and goal of Russian governments from the time of the first Romanov czars through the Soviet era until now. After the end of the Cold War things had stabilized until Clinton talked Ukraine into surrendering its defensive nuclear weapons, creating vulnerability and giving Putin an opening. Biden's weakness just encouraged him. Everything that is going on now stems from this. My point is, from a Russian perspective and from an historical perspective, Putin is acting rationally to insulate his country from potential invasion. The presence of those biolabs just made his action even more urgent. He is not some Bond villain, however entertaining and pleasing that idea is. Trump is one of the few contemporary leaders who recognizes this. You are right, Bones. those biolabs were the provocation.

RSgva's avatar

Yes and George Kennan warned Bush and all the neocons against their “surround Russia” policies.

Bard Joseph's avatar

Romanovs were the largest land owner in the world and saved the US during the Civil War.

Today we have King Charles and the Bank of England.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

I agree. But what was once historically rational, Napoleon, the Germans, the Swedes, etc., is now not rational. No one is now looking to invade Russia. It’s now expansionist and trying to recreate the USSR for power not security.

Old fossil's avatar

Nonsense the European elites have a hard on for war with Russia. They absolutely want to destroy and loot it of its natural resources.

Lydia Lozano's avatar

Don't you pay any attention to news from Europe? The Europeans are dying for the US TO TAKE ON RUSSIA. And you don't think biolabs on his border are threatening? You think fearing biolabs with the benefit of drone distribution is irrational? You are stuck in the Cold War.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

Are YOU not paying attention sport? The US is not going to take on Russia. In fact the islamocommie left is bleating about how Trump is Putin’s stooge, that is when he’s not Bibi’s stooge.

And who is the you stuck in the Cold War?

Lydia Lozano's avatar

Learn to read for meaning. I did not say the we were going to take on Russia. I said the Europeans would like us to. "Why don't you and him fight. I'll watch." You are right about the islamocommies bleats. And not I'm not stuck in Cold War, I moved on long ago, but apparently you still are if you think Putin is eager to do anything other than defeat Ukraine to the point of gaining permanent control of the Donbas and getting rid of all the biolabs. He has several other domestic fish to fry.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

Whatever. But you should heal thyself in looking to read for meaning.

Old fossil's avatar

That is why they like the German army chief a few days ago are talking about 2029. They expect a Democratic president to lead the way and the USA to do most of the fighting. Of course they disregard nuclear war which would inevitably result because they are not only satanic but also batshit crazy.

Richard Whitney's avatar

''The push to break up or "decolonize" Russia into smaller, independent states has been driven largely by the Free Nations of Post-Russia Forum (formerly the Forum of Free Peoples of Russia), which frequently holds conferences and events within the European Union.Conferences and forums regarding the disintegration of the Russian Federation within the EU include:

European Parliament Forums: The Forum held a major meeting at the European Parliament in Brussels, where participants adopted a declaration promoting the right of self-determination and secession for regions and peoples within Russia.

Other European Locations: Similar events and conferences have taken place in other European cities, including Helsingborg, Berlin, and Rome.Danish Forum: A forum on "Decolonizing Mindsets for Security in Europe" was held in Copenhagen. This event explored the post-imperial space of Russia and ways Western policy can meaningfully support the futures of captive nations within the federation.

These forums are attended by regional indigenous activists, European politicians, and international experts who argue that breaking up the Russian Empire is the only way to ensure lasting security and democratic freedom in Eurasia.

Politically, the concept has also been echoed by top European leaders, such as Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas, who have publicly suggested that defeating and breaking up the Russian Federation could be a positive outcome for European and global security."

Think tanks and forums are the way the ruling elites announces and implements their plans. Think Event 201.

Lisa Ricketts's avatar

We have a few sizable Russian populations in the San Francisco Bay Area. Some are highly educated, intelligent and successful. Others' hardworking and in the trades, but we also have those that look to grift the system, just like all other immigrants, including those born to centuries old American families, they came to America to seek liberty and prosperity.

And let us not forget that Hitler also attempted to invade Russia, which is why they switched sides and became allied against the German's and Italians in WWII. They signed a treaty with the Japanese because they knew that the Russian border with the Chinese was difficult to defend, and Japan held China at that time.

If China was had weapons, Drugs and manufacturing plants in Mexico, the USA might be concerned about those activities and want to strengthen its borders. Oh, wait, that actually happened, but the Dems and PUBS just ignored it and tried to kill the one man who sounded the warnining!

Isn’t this too important for you to conjecture with zero evidence?

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

So I should go with the fever dreams of the euros who couldn’t fight their way out of a paper bag without US help and men and materiel, thinking a country that couldn’t tame Ukraine for over four years will all of a sudden attack somewhere in Europe?

Dude. Think for yourself. Even if it’s hard.

Lone Star's avatar

Also, the talk of Ukraine becoming part of Nato did not help matters.

Lydia Lozano's avatar

Absolutely right. NATO was approaching (encroaching), moving closer and closer. I have a map I can't post here comparing NATO in 1998 to where it had expanded to in 2022. A Russian's worst nightmare. No one can say it was not a deliberate taunting. Here is a link to the map: https://tinyurl.com/32j9msha

Oh and hunter seems to be trying for a comeback of sorts. Aw hell no!!

Lydia Lozano's avatar

It is hilarious. The double-sleazebag episode of Hunter's appearance on Gavin's podcast was a complete and total scream. They just don't listen to themselves. Very little self-awareness in either one of them. (Actually a triple-sleaze bag episode because they talked at length about what a swell guy Graham Platner is.)

I have a hunch that Hunter is actually helping to take down the world wide cabal. The way the laptop was dropped off for "repair" and ended up in the hands of Rudy Guilliani doesn't make sense. It's possible Hunter was a victim of his father and had enough. Hopefully, we'll all get to eventually know the truth.

CK's avatar

The Biden’s are trash but the labs predate them.

Matt L.'s avatar

My guess is that Russia / China are pursuing the same bioweapons. And the internal US rational is that the West must do the same. Like a sort of MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) we saw w/ nukes. US could not do this in America (without a lot of uncomfortable questions) so they sought out shadow locations across the globe. I’m not saying it’s right. Just a rational, Realpolitik thought.

Michelle Enmark, DDS's avatar

You could have a very good point, Matt L! I hadn’t looked at it from that perspective.

God Bless America's avatar

My worry is how many biolabs we have here in the good old USA… as well as where they are, and what they’re cooking in those level 4 biolabs… 😬

CK's avatar

They predate POTUS Joe.

from 2020-2024 for sure but even in the 70's when he was hatched?

I think Joe hatched a few years after sliced bread was invented.

Beckadee's avatar

yes but when did US really start funding bio-labs around the world. I would guess in the 70's but could have been right after WW2.

Lydia Lozano's avatar

I am also interested in what is going on at the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility in Manhattan, Kansas, which is carrying out research that the government used to classify as so dangerous that it had to be conducted off-shore on Plum Island. Oddly close to Fort Riley and huge chunk of farmland now owned by the Chinese.

Richard Whitney's avatar

I couldn't believe it when they did that either.

Plum Island is an island, and still Lyme Disease escaped to the mainland from it.

So close it down and move bioweapon research, which includes trying to find diseases to wipe out crops and livestock, as well as humans, to KANSAS?!!!

What could possibly go wrong?

And we should never forget- it's all illegal. That makes all involved criminals.

Completely agree, ValerieKay! Obama, who no one should have trusted a thing out of his mouth anyway( but I did for a while, sadly), said the US didn’t have any facilities. How many do we actually have on US soil anyway?

Lydia Lozano's avatar

And how many of them are staffed by Chinese representatives of the CCP?

Lisa Ricketts's avatar

They certainly have a lot of positions in our University labs! I recall a conversation with a Highschool Senior in the Fall of 2013 She did an internship in China at an HVAC design and manufacturing company. She was going to major in Mechanical Engineering in College. Silicon Valley has a very large Chinese population, and the children are in general, extremely intelligent, focused and at the top of their class. Some of them appear to be much older than their American counterparts.

I recall having a new Chinese student in one of my classrooms. He towered over my other pupils and his intelligence, articulation, and curiosity was far more advanced than the other children, though his paperwork stated that he was the dame age. He clearly was a good 3 years older than the American students.

A Whip of Cords's avatar

The questions left unanswered about US bio labs in 30 countries:

1. Who authorized this?

2. Who knew about it, and said nothing?

3. Why are there biolabs in 30 countries? (I know what they say is the reason, but what’s the real reason?)

4. How did whoever authorized this convince themselves labs in 30 countries could be kept secure enough to prevent leakage or theft of the bio weapons?

5. Were any U.S. laws broken while creating these labs, and if so, will ANYONE ever be held accountable?

6. Is there ANYTHING immoral, vile, evil, or fatal our government won’t do?

CStone's avatar

Good……no…..EXCELLENT questions.

Add one…….how many became millionaires through the NGO’s that financed these demonic labs?

Richard Whitney's avatar

Yes, US laws were broken. According to the Constitution, any treaty the US signs and ratifies becomes the law of the land.

The US signed and ratified the 1972 Bio-weapon and Chemical Weapon treaty that banned research on bio and chemical weapons.

When the anthrax was released on Americans starting a week after 9-11, targeting especially 2 Congress members who were resisting passing the "Patriot" Act, which destroyed the Bill of Rights, I thought for sure they would finally shut down the labs.

Instead, they passed the PREP Act, used to attack the entire public during covid.

They are all criminals.

Just read the plot summary for that book. Interesting to note that critics said the writing and character development were great but the plot was unrealistic. Ha!

Gonna try and get it from Library. Don't recall reading this one.

During covid, I was at an Airbnb, looking for something fairly mindless to read. This book practically jumped out at me. Curious synchonicity!

Watch 2011 film Contaguin. The virus comes from a bat in China and needs a rushed vaccine to rescue everyone from the disease and lockdowns.

Willing Spirit's avatar

Rewatched Contagion recently. Uncanny coincidence that Americans viewed this, then largely lived it. No wonder so many susceptible to brainwashing individuals were so thrilled about the vaccine.

Willing Spirit's avatar

A lot like Michael Crichton and Dean Koontz. They’ve been told stuff.

Vince Flynn, author of "American Assain" and the Mitch Rapp series has also passed, though he died of prostate cancer in 2013. Great reads!

Pat Wetzel's avatar

Love the old Mitch Rapp books. What was the one where the assassin was killing off congressmen? One of the early ones that got me hooked on the author.

Ole's avatar

I think it was "Transfer of Power". I have given away several copies, would send one to our libtard congress person but she would consider it a threat and have me arrested!

Steenroid's avatar

Someone was telling him something for sure.

Laura's avatar

It's called predictive programming.

The subconscious mind can't tell the difference between something in real life and something on a screen.

Why do you think we've had 20 years of dystopian movies?

Hellywood is one big propaganda and programming machine.

nancy's avatar

And sadly we don't have Vince Flynn anymore either. Definitely one of my favorite authors. RIP Vince

It's not only Trump who keeps winning, it's all of us, the world over.

Bard Joseph's avatar

Palestine and Lebanon winning?

Mary Ann Caton's avatar

In the long run, they too will win. Let the man work. Have a little faith, Man.

Michelle Enmark, DDS's avatar

Agreed, Mary Ann. In addition, no leader is perfect and never will be. Would Kamala and Walz been better? No way! I’m grateful for the many wins that this administration has provided for us.

Bard Joseph's avatar

Dont put your faith in any man. Only God.

God does not condone genocide both short and long term.

Janine Melnitz's avatar

Seriously, until we untether ourselves Bibi and get out of Iran...no one is winning.

Primum non nocere's avatar

Everything censored on social media during the plandemic should be considered ABSOLUTE TRUTH until proven otherwise.

The crazy conspiracy stuff never got censored but its crazy how the true conspiracies were censored... but ultimately proven true.

Primum non nocere's avatar

If its being heavily censored or attacked by controlled opposition on social media then its true. End of discussion.

Name one example of this that is NOT this case.

Michelle Enmark, DDS's avatar

Completely agree, Primum non nocere! If the NYT and other rags write articles trying to discredit someone or something then that means what the person is championing is true!

SteelJ's avatar

Yup, they play the game very well.

Primum non nocere's avatar

There is not ONE.

Name one if you can.

NOT ONE example of a heavily censored plandemic "conspiracy" that has been shown to be false.

For anyone who may have missed this yesterday, Spencer Pratt is not quietly fading away. He has declared war:

That video is EPIC! A must-watch for everyone who loves this country!

Beckadee's avatar

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing as most of this ad is on the news outlets and you have to listen to all the teeth gnashing from the media.

Lisa's avatar

I believe after he released it, his office building had a mysterious fire.

KBB's avatar

Yikes! I just confirmed that, it's true. They set fire to his crystal business. Nothing is too low for the dem loonies.

Light's avatar

Hello, please kindly follow back 🌹

Copernicus's avatar

That is an incredible video. He better have his video stored somewhere very safe in quadruplicate across multiple places with several people who can access it in the event of his untimely death. And I hope he has really solid security and watches what he eats.

YAHOO HURRAH HURRAY BOOYAH

Bard Joseph's avatar

All a Hollywood show. Past the popcorn.

KBB's avatar

Yeah, I'm way past the popcorn too. Now they're trying to burn him out of his business after already burning him out of his home. Not a show, this is real life in California.

AJF's avatar

Putin also had enough of Western Ukrainians attacking Russian speaking Eastern Ukrainians.

Lydia Lozano's avatar

Yes indeed. He feels (rightly) compelled to defend them. But the biolabs are a true existential threat.

CK's avatar

The Polish were doing the same thing to ethnic Germans before Hitler invaded.

Jeff, you slid this description in so easily, and the double entendres were fitting for the people purposefully hiding illegal activity.

"Yesterday, Tulsi released new declassified documents proving a whole sordid stack of bad actors were liars, from the bottom (Mitt Romney) to the top-heavy pinnacle (Vicky Nuland)."

Navyo Ericsen's avatar

Make that Icky Nuland.

RunningLogic's avatar

That shall henceforth be the only name I use for her 😁

FrankInFL's avatar

Well, I can imagine WORSE things than Russian troops marching down the Champs Élysées or Picadilly Circus or Unter den Linden, especially if their first occupation order was "All you Muslims self-deport within the next 30 days after which our policy is 'shoot on sight'. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

That might even move our Congress to action on a clarification to the First Amendment, viz.: that Islam is not a "religion" in the sense that the Founders meant when wordsmithing it.

Yeah, yeah, I know... But I can dream, can't I?

Jeffrey N. Gratton's avatar

Isn't Russia one of the few countries where Christians and Muslims accommodate each other respectfully?

FrankInFL's avatar

Yes, because Muslims are a thin minority. Not in the -stans, of course, but Russia is not the -stans.

Jeffrey N. Gratton's avatar

The Muslim presence there is also historical. The Russian Federation didn't just suddenly open the floodgates as we have done in the West.

Richard Whitney's avatar

"That's nobody's business but the Turks."

The Ottoman Turks, that is.

SteelJ's avatar

I bought into the "all Muslims bad" dogma for years. I now realize it's another example of the "fear card" manipulation the PTB always use, because it always works so well. Another way to keep us fighting each other instead of fighting our real enemy, the oligarchy.

FrankInFL's avatar

Empirical evidence seems to independently confirm that, in fact, all Muslims are bad for Western civilization. They migrate into non-Muslims environments for the same reason the Borg visit other civilizations: to absorb and destroy them.

Islam is not a religion; it is a political ideology disguised as a religion, and its prime directive is to make the world Islamic. Because of this, they CANNOT have allegiance to thier adopted countries.

Jeffrey N. Gratton's avatar

THEY

THEM

THOSE OTHER PEOPLE

Whit Gray's avatar

Except when Muslims are shooting school children as they exit the school?

Bard Joseph's avatar

Sounds anti semantic.

I see what you did there...

Juju's avatar

Morning to my favorite Portlander 😊

Laura Barrett's avatar

I think we need a C&C meet up for readers between Portland and Seattle. I live an hour ish north of you.

St. Alia the Knife's avatar

Yes!! Dittos!

Mrs. "the Knife"

Karen Bandy's avatar

Not sure where my comment went, but invite me too!! Mom’s in Centralia.

St. Alia the Knife's avatar

Hi, Karen, I am familiar with Centralia - the paternal side of the family is from there! :-)

Mrs. "the Knife"

Karen Bandy's avatar

Dad was transferred there years ago and managed the power plant. We’re originally from the burbs in Portland.

Laura Barrett's avatar

It’s a small world. I live in Chehalis now.

Laura Barrett's avatar

I’m live Chehalis now and graduated high school a few years ago now in Centralia. What’s your Mom’s name? If you don’t mind sharing…

Karen Bandy's avatar

I’ll message you

Juju's avatar

Ikr! 🤣 Maybe we need to organize a special gathering at an all-inclusive resort somewhere (are those still a thing or did I just grotesquely reveal my age?) for all of us to save and plan for.

St. Alia the Knife's avatar

Y'all are welcome to join us, maybe somewhere on the coast? We have some lovely beaches and the weather is usually fairly mild in the summer, compared to the rest of the country. :-)

Mrs. "the Knife"

Laura Barrett's avatar

Are you on the Washington or Oregon coast?

Beckadee's avatar

Time shares would have revealed your age. ;)

Juju's avatar

😆🤣 I forgot about those

Laura Barrett's avatar

I love my timeshare i’ll have you know!!😆…

Karen Bandy's avatar

Invite me, I’m in Bend but my mom is an hour and a half north of Portland, I’d have a place to stay.

Lisa Runquist's avatar

How about a meet up with those south of Portland???? Lisa in Grants Pass.

Laura Barrett's avatar

I’ll be driving by you on I5 on Monday.

BayouKiki's avatar

I’m up here now from Louisiana! If you hurry I can join you!

St. Alia the Knife's avatar

Good morning, Barbara, from further up the I-5 corridor!

Tulsi took a beating from the Main Stream Press and Biden Administration for four long years, and she's well earned this, 'F--k You All' moment... I pray she has a few more rounds of ammo before retiring to care for her husband... Tulsi Gabbard is everything every true American should aspire to be.

Yes. President Trump would make things right by creating an "Autopen" cancelation of the little rat bastard's "Get out of jail free card" he got from President Cabbage Head.

Yes, he’s still free despite all the evidence about his role in the pandemic being given to every senator!

So far. Timing is everything in this war.

Europe destroying themselves from within by allowing unfettered immigration. So why should we pay to protect them? From what?
