Happy Birthday to me!! 🥳😁 Love seeing all of this good news today!! 😊

Dr Linda's avatar

Happy, happy birthday. Mine was 2 weeks ago.

Laura Kasner's avatar

Mine and my sissy’s was a week ago. Happy BD Running Logic and Dr. Linda!

RunningLogic's avatar

A belated happy birthday to you and your sister!! 🎉

Laura Kasner's avatar

Yes! We have older twin brothers and my twin has twin grands (all fraternal).

Laura Kasner's avatar

Elaine - indeed! But what isn’t cool and is incredibly sad is that our brothers no longer speak to us. They still believe all the lies - or they are too proud to admit they were duped. 😢

Dr Linda's avatar

Happy Belated B’day to you & your Sis as well. It’s a pleasure to interact with you.

Laura Kasner's avatar

Thank you Linda. Likewise. 🥰

Happy Birthday RL. IT'S A GREAT DAY!

Especially with all this winning reported from our intrepid Attorney-in-Chief.

I am NOT getting tired of winning and am salivating at the prospect of criminals like comey, actblue Fraudsters, SPLCracist/fraudsters and so many more heading to indictments and jail cells.

86 that, bitch comey.

All great news! Except for the Comey bit. I’m a 1st Amendment absolutist and that seashell case isn’t going to stick. That DOJ case is exhibit A, of “punishment is the process” and ‘red meat’ to emotionally driven folks on the right. Trump should find real evidence of malfeasance w/ Comey like has apparently been found for Fauci # 2, rather than trying to use James as proxy dot-connector to Cole Allen.

Dan (100% All in MAGA)'s avatar

Well Matt, while we generally agree, I will tell you that you can't be an absolutist. You can't yell fire in a theater. Comey being in law enforcement (allegedly as I believe he acted a criminal more than law enforcer, seeing himself above the law)) at the highest level, yelled fire in a theater, as a fireman. He knew better, in his TDS state he posted it, realizing his mistake, he deleted the post, now he should get to pay the piper.

BTW, I do believe this is part of the comey, clapper, brennan, obama takedown, all connected.

Matt L.'s avatar

Yeah, I'm just seeing the Comey case as weak sauce. The merits of '86 47' is not designed to 'win' the case but instead to occupy the airways. Perhaps this is warm up for something else.

Dan (100% All in MAGA)'s avatar

Its a message to all of them. Judgemet day is coming. Where is his case being prosecuted and what will the jury see which you and I haven't.

This is just the beginning of comey's trouble. The motherfucker thought he was above the law, in fact thought he was the law.

Debbie's avatar

Comey also knows exactly what those numbers mean, and IMO making the display and taking a photo and posting it implies malicious intent of riling up Trumps’s opposition. Other democrats were also doing the same thing, like Maxine Waters and Kathie Griffith.

The final nail though was actually deleting it even though there were already screen shots.

Matt L.'s avatar
1hEdited

Well, posting a photo of numbers on the sea shore isn’t breaking any law that I’m aware of. To convict Comey, the DOJ will have to show that this picture was a “true threat” to Trump. It’s disgusting he posted that to Instagram, then took it down the same day. I’m still waiting for official report on what motivated Thomas Matthew Crooks to shoot Trump in the face. If Comey had something to do with that then we’re talking. Either Trump wants to bury the Crooks story because it isn’t politically helpful, or he’s holding it in reserve for just the right time. Which possibility do you think it is?

Il faut savoir ~'s avatar

Yes, Dan. It has to do with the Russia, Russia, Russia setup! A conspiracy against an elected gov. The shell display—Comey just couldn't stop himself, his ego convincing him that there was no risk, he was above it all: "Absolute power corrupts absolutely." We shall see—

Dan (100% All in MAGA)'s avatar

Amen, much more coming for all of those treasonous criminals. They swore oaths to tge Constitution and then violated it in every conceivable way, to the point the country is damn near civil war.

JudyC's avatar

Happy Birthday to all my fellow bull headed Taurus peeps! Mine is on Friday! Quick little story: I was born in Venezuela many many years ago and my birthday fell on May 1st, International Workers Day. In Venezuela, like in many countries, that meant military parades, etc. I was 6 before I found out the parades weren’t for my birthday! My dad was quite the jokester!

Margot Wooster's avatar

JudyC, that is so cool! I was born in Japan, back in the middle of the last century, in a MASH.

And I thought all the Easter hoopla was for me when I was 3!! 😀🙄

Yes Tauruses are the best stubborn determined people 😁 An early happy birthday to you!! Lol about the parades, too funny!!

And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to those who live on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people; and he said with a loud voice, “Fear God, and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come; worship Him who made the heaven and the earth and sea and springs of waters.”

— Revelation 14:6-7 NAS95

Since you quote Revelations are you aware of the "Preterist" view?

Carolyn's avatar

ALL prophecy has not been fulfilled but is being fulfilled during these days. IF all had been fulfilled, we would not be in this spiritual war we are in. The destroyer would be bound and YESHUA would be in charge for the thousand years..the destroyer let free for a time and the books open and all will be judged. GOD is fulfilling HIS promises of exposing things done in the dark to the light which is truth. Let HIM do HIS works. Give HIM the honor, praise, glory and gratitude HE so rightly deserves. Put HIM first and live like HE has given us instruction to live.

What if it's not prophecy but a plan? A human plan.

Well one thing is sure -- that no man knows the hour or the day of the messiah's return. We live with expectancy, keeping our lamps filled and living each day with the knowledge that the Lord is in charge.

Hi Janice,

How's today's book-flogging and virtue-signaling going?

neener's avatar

Everybody has one, but that doesn't mean you have to BE one. We all know now what the A. stands for!

Free in Florida's avatar

Neener - Someone told me it’s a bot (perhaps from the UK with its spelling of behaviour.) It needs to correct its English, however - it should be “no difference”, not “no different.” Not sure how those work. LOL

Margot Wooster's avatar

Boo. Whoever you are, “A”, know this: you WILL stand before the judgment seat of Christ one day, you WILL bow the knee to Him, and you WILL confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, whether you want to or not. Philippians 2:9-11, the Word of GOD.

A.'s avatar

Margot, whoever you are, I have tried several times to explain reality to you, but you seldom take off your judgmental cultist blinkers and think about it.

I suspect it is more likely that God is going to have to have a little talk with you in the afterlife, Margot, than with me. He does not like your behaviour or attitudes. The attacks on other people by you and your fellow cultists really ticks him off. This is the antithesis of Christ-like behaviour.

Shape up! You never seem to learn. You just come back virtue-signaling once again, as cover.

Margot Wooster's avatar

The true Gospel is offensive. I am praying for you, if you are even a real person. God knows.

A.'s avatar

Margot, God is watching you, Be very careful. Open your eyes and become a decent person. Stop your self-righteous con-artistry. Many of us have had enough of it here.

You are no different than the WOKE-folk, or the followers of various religious cults. Frankly, with most of these groups, their minds were fried. And they have the Margot-like audacity to shake their fingers at normal persons.

Margot, go take a time-out and REALLY think about your unacceptable behaviour, and how you are going to improve. Leave the cult, for starters.

No, you are wrong. Most comments I make contain generous and valuable information about the answers from my field which will assist in bringing society back to normal. Though perhaps your reading comprehension is low.

And you have the gall to try to stop this by defaming me? I will report you if you continue harassing me here, Which is all you seem to know how to do. I have seen no posts of value from you or your sort. You use this as a chit-chat forum and to encourage your vacuous groupthink. As your own profile says: "Nothing important".

Be careful how you proceed. Do not attack me again. Fair warning.

Now what a kindly loving Christian response that was, my friend. You are simply proving that this herd camped on this Substack is not really practicing Christianity, but cult-ism. I notice how quick you all are to attack anyone who does not go along with your groupthink narrative 100%. The claws certainly come out. No different in your behaviour than the WOKE.

What a lovely democratic and Christian reply, Alan dear. You just proved my point.

Thanks for that.

Alan Devincentis's avatar

Never claimed to be much of a Christian, certainly not democratic in any form. But to attack Janice,you throw about insults meant to enrage, then act holier than thou when someone like myself, who has no time for democratic bullshit, calls you out on it. What a disgusting waste of humanity, that was given to you.

A.'s avatar
2hEdited

Glad you admit the obvious -- that neither are you a Christian nor democratic. And you are not much of a decent person either. In fact, you displayed zero decency in this rant of yours.

So I am not allowed to state the truth here against what the cultists are saying? I never see you question them when they spout inanities. Or when they attack others for failing to agree with them. What kind of person are you, Alan?

Me....acting holier than thou? I think you mean the Holy Poseurs on this site. You are really sure that Janice is godly simply because she cuts and pastes Scripture quotes daily here, in order to sell her book? She behaves like a lot of fraudsters I know of. This is a common con-artistry trick. Are you so naive you do not spot it? This is a general news site. Why is she posting this material daily? We can all look it up ourselves if we are interested, Frankly, I do not trust Janice's motives. But she counts on the fact that most people will fall for the Scripture-lady routine.

Now run along and examine your conscience, Alan. You have been quite a bad boy here today. You need to apologize and repent.

Surprised that Sergey Brin's ex-wife, Nichole Shanahan isn't mentioned. She was also a solid liberal until her son was vaccine-injured. Her investigation into vaccine safety triggered a complete re-evaluation of her beliefs, and contributed to her divorce from Sergey. She had a great interview on Beth Stuckey's podcast where she states that she has also moved from abortion advocate to much more pro-life.

Lori's avatar

WOW JUST WOW ON THAT. I am in tears listening to how babies are killed in the womb. Gill made that horrible woman so uncomfortable she would not look at him and kept chanting the same sentence. Those seeking abortions via informed consent must be told how their baby will be killed. It is a horror story.

Isn't it amazing how the ACTUALS beat the NARRATIVES over the head with ball peen hammers?

How the REALITY and Truths of the Matter vs the ILLUSION and parroted talking points clears one's vision?

NO ONE can walk away from that particular Senate hearing citing "reproductive health" measures when it comes to the liberal salivation of abortion up to birth, and then even after!

Remember when [they] had free abortions and snippings in rolling "clinic mobiles" outside a conservative event? And Jackasses actually used them!!

1. How FAR humanity has fallen from humanity

OR

2. How deeply the brainwashing actually went

Either way, make mental asylums great again!

CStone's avatar

DD for Truth???

You said “outside a conservative event”.

It was outside the DNC Convention, while they were proclaiming a “A season of joy” while they had a vasectomy clinic and an abortion clinic parked right outside as Kameltoe Harris was inside, drunk as a skunk trying to ‘gin up’ the joy.

Remember?

DDForTruth's avatar

My bad. I KNEW it was an event, couldn't remember exactly which one. Thank you for the correction.

Merry McIntyre's avatar

In Minnesota full term abortions are allowed & allegedly these still living babies are not given palliative care. I don’t have the stomach to do a deeper dive into this murderous barbaric crime against humanity to confirm the allegations. Especially after listening to Brenden Gill disclosing the procedures.

Her daughter is injured. Plus Nicole herself suffered a vaccine injury and nearly died during a late stage pregnancy miscarriage while she was running for VP with Bobby Kennedy.

Was baptized after that.

A very good interview.

She was also podcasting on Youtube. Hosted some interesting people. Abruptly stopped about 5 months ago. Not sure why.

Why any woman would have willingly taken any vaccine or pseudo-vaccine during pregnancy is beyond me. I wouldn't even drink coffee in pregnancy. The results of drugs on the fetus are well known.

Garden Lover's avatar

Because they trust their doctors and doctors started pushing vaccines during pregnancy a good decade ago.

Joanne Shannon's avatar

The sooner they can injure a child, the easier it is to distract the vaxxers that the vaccines are the problem. That’s why there is such a push for the hep b vaccine to be given at birth.

Garden Lover's avatar

Oh, 100%. You also have to refuse the Vitamin K shot. I wish I had known that.

A.'s avatar

I never trusted every doctor. I did my own homework first. Because I know that medical mistakes are rampant. And it is not the doctor who pays the price if it happens.

It simply went against all common sense to take a drug (untested) during pregnancy! Too many people lost their minds.

Garden Lover's avatar

I never did either, but many people do. Even when they see the harm caused, they often deny it.

A.'s avatar

And that is not even getting into the harm caused by women who drink during pregnancy and whose babies are born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. Which is rampant is some places.

I gave up my favorite food, potatoes, during my second pregnancy, since I read that potato blight caused birth defects, and I had no idea how to recognize potato blight.

OK, here is something I am going to mention, seeing as we are talking about injuries to children. Even unintended injuries,

Not many people know about the human Attachment System of the brain, and that properly activating that Attachment System by the mother or caregiver in infancy and early childhood is crucial to the child's wellbeing. Unsuccessful Attachment can follow them for life.

I am not referring to the recent internet craze of figuring out your "Attachment style". Like you talk about your zodiac sign, Just a lot of silliness there.

I am talking about real Attachment issues. From the John Bowlby Theory of the 60s.

It is good that such extremists finally awaken (often when they hit rock bottom), and we should hope that many more extremists on both the far-leftwing and far-rightwing awaken.

However, I tend to trust the always-balanced individuals far more than I trust the recent converts, who did not see the light until they were forced.

Frequently they just use this attention-getting tactic to launch a new and dramatic podcast or Substack. It pulls in the punters. I would believe them more if they were humble about it. When they are not, I smell a rat.

I recall that Michael Shellenberger used this "I am a Convert!!" routine to launch his media career. I paid annual fees for his Substack. Two weeks later, he banned me and kept the money. Because I disagreed with him once. He was a nasty sort. Now, I would not trust him as far as I could throw him. Manipulative type. Gives you what he thinks you want to hear, then you must reflect it back to him. Or else.

Yes, Comey is a human weasel, maybe worse. And I just read that a judge in NC has ordered the US Marshalls to arrest him. Actually find and arrest him. Then there is still the big RICO case in FL in his future. It's finally happening.

I suspect Comey will be hit with multiple indictments. His legal team will run out of resources to defend and buy justice.

Not so sure if that lithium vein is good news for Appalachians. Its been well known for a long time now, it wasn’t just discovered. Too bad the App mountain people live on it. They will need to get them to move and give up their land to mine the lithium. Maybe a once in a millenium hurricane causing utter devastation would drive them off their land. Seems like that was tried once.

Valerie's avatar

How about, instead of automatically assuming the worst thing will happen, we think for a minute that technology may have progressed to a point where there won’t be massive disruption of residents? Look how fracking has changed the oil business. I don’t know anything, but it’s definitely a possibility.

"Living near fracking sites causes significant health, environmental, and quality-of-life harms to neighbors, including respiratory issues (coughing, wheezing), cancer risks, birth defects, and psychological stress. Local communities face air pollution from chemicals like benzene, intense noise, vibrations, and traffic, alongside potential groundwater contamination.

University of Colorado Anschutz

Key Harms to Neighbors

Health Issues: Residents near fracking sites report increased incidences of headaches, nausea, nosebleeds, asthma, and skin rashes. Studies show an increased risk of preterm birth and low birth weight in infants born to mothers living near wells, which are leading causes of infant death.

Air and Water Contamination: Hazardous air pollutants (benzene, formaldehyde) and diesel emissions from trucks, equipment, and flaring degrade air quality. Leaking wells or improper waste disposal can contaminate local well water.

Noise and Vibration: Around-the-clock drilling operations, heavy truck traffic, and machinery create constant noise and vibrations, disrupting sleep and reducing quality of life.

Community and Social Disruption: Increased traffic, damage to roads, light pollution, and strain on local resources (hospitals, schools) are common.

Property and Financial Risks: Homes with private water wells located near fracking sites can experience a decrease in property value. Some landowners may face challenges with mortgages due to split-estate scenarios.

YES! There were theories circulating that the floods were allowed to happen and the disaster response was so pathetic just BECAUSE they want to displace these people in order to get to the lithium. Not to mention the environmental disaster that lithium mines can produce. Definitely not excited about the prospects for people whose land is going to be destroyed. I am a solid fiscal conservative, but also a tree hugger of sorts and not a huge fan of this.

You think Joey wanted to be able to mine the lithium? Since when has any democrat wanted to exploit mineral resources as opposed to locking them in the ground forever.

Oh. You would rather we keep sending billions to China and Chile than do something for the people in Appalachia because trees.

What a world view you have.

PonyBoy's avatar

Yeah, not to mention there are a lot of us folks that do not want a lithium battery Bomb in our car that could potentially explode in our garage.

I'll stick with a good ole petroleum version car.

Sibelco is an international mining company operating in the small town of Spruce Pine, Mitchell County, NC that is also a major employer in the area. The company buys up large tracts of land and strips the land of lithium, quartz, feldspar, and uraninite. I’ve been told the spent bottom sedimentation contains a large amount of fluoride and forever chemicals. There is concern chemicals used in the operations can poison waterways and water sources. Plus, the sound of the heavy equipment from the operation is noise pollution to nearby land owners. These are large scale operations that can quickly devalue your property if they start mining nearby.

I looked it up. It's a Belgian corporation.

So the US is opening land and water up to Chile and Belgium and calling it a "win".

I recently read that a new kind of battery is being developed for electric cars that is much superior to what exists now, and it apparently uses silver. The technology would work in other batteries, too. Seems like it would be expensive.

Karen Bandy's avatar

No wonder the price of silver is going up.

Elaine Russky's avatar

It's doubled in the last year. I hear there's not enough to cover futures contracts and the ownership rights of those who didn't take physical delivery of their investments.

Karen Bandy's avatar

There’s lithium in the desert in Nevada, and future mining was shut down, maybe even before it started due to a wildflower. Not sure what the status is.

Teresa Thibodeaux's avatar

Same worries here. It’s definitely there, just not sure it’s going to be a good thing for Appalachians. First, can we mine it safely, second can the locals still live there safely and third can it be done without trashing the whole area?

While I don’t consider myself a tree hugging greenie, I am definitely a cautious adult who wants us to be good stewards of the land and communities.

And now having typed that, I expect that Trump has a plan for that too. 🙏🏻🤔

Cousin Clem's avatar

Mining and extracting lithium is pretty dirty business. I would imagine the people will have to get out of the way of that business. Hopefully, they get paid really well to be forced out. I don't know if Trump has a plan but the mining companies sure do.

Haven't most Appalachians already been displaced from that area by that catastrophic flooding from Helena in 2022?

Kind of came to say the same thing. Hurricane Helene which took that mysterious left turn to head straight north into the heart of the southern North Carolina mountains causing immense devastation, was immediately proposed to be geo engineered to get land cheap for developers of guess what….lithium, that was well known by many. Over a year and a half now.

JudyC's avatar

They’ve known about this vein of lithium for years. After the horrific floods in WNC, the land grab was on, just like after the Palisades fire. Corporations swooped in and started buying up property. I just hope that this doesn’t go sideways. Unfortunately, I have very little trust in the state governments to not let this get out of hand.

I read that Doug Emhoff (kamalatoe Harris’ husband) is trying to get resident kicked out so he can mine the minerals there.

You people! Every silver lining has a dark cloud, right? This take on a positive news story says more about you and your cramped, conspiratorial world view than the actual news.

Unwoke in Idaho's avatar

I’m sure when the racist pedophilic senilities handlers moved those people off their land and beyond slow walked help to the hurricane victims, they weren’t thinking about getting the lithium out, but instead locking it up as federal land forever.

Conservative Contrarian's avatar

There's a theory hurricane Helene was intended to clean out the rabble so big corps could waltz in and scoop the land up for bargain basement prices. That happened to a degree but Appalachian rabble are a stubborn breed, so now it looks like the "new" announcement indicates they have a new plan. I won't be surprised if an eminent domain attempt is on the horizon.

Kenneth Solomon's avatar

you mean kinda like Jed Clampett and HIS oil.

Justin's avatar

Yes, weren't most of the people in that area already forced to move after that Helena flooding in 2022 destroyed that area?

shayne's avatar

I thought the same John. Many of these folk and their families have lived there for generations. It will be tricky. Plus all the flora and fauna that is likely disrupted. It's a blessing and a curse.

How about they already have new ways to access that mineral that doesn’t involve two mile holes inthe earth. So…

Exactly. It did just that.

BeadleBlog's avatar

While it's long been known there was some lithium in the Appalachians, according to a quick web search, a 2024 geological survey estimated the lithium stores. That's two years or less of knowing the extent of the stores, which qualifies as just discovered in my book.

This is cult-ism. But most cult members cannot see this, until their eyes are finally opened. Sometimes never.

When Trump said the country was "dead" before his second election, it wasn't hyperbole

Juju's avatar

I sit here amazed at that story. It took three years for our son to be approved for social security disability benefits. Every day I thank God for that help in the cost of supporting him as it drained our entire savings taking care of him, but the monthly aid is not that much, ($1300/mo,) and they keep back $200/month for Medicare even though he remains covered by my husband’s insurance. They told us he qualified for SNAP benefits too, and that we would be behaving financially foolish if we didn’t take the benefits. On one hand I understood the financial wisdom of that, because it’s still a tiny drain on our own resources, and we WOULD like to save for him somehow for the days we are no longer here, but I never took the aid because he lives with his parents and we ARE able to supplement his aid and afford food for him. It didn’t feel right to use SNAP when there are people out there in his position with less resources and no one to help. So we chose to pass on it. It was a difficult choice, maybe not a smart one to those more wealthy than we are, but it just didn’t feel right. Now if there were an additional benefit for clothing or medical that didn’t cost money out of his check we might use something like that. But this is specifically for food, and we are able to share our food.

I can’t get my head around owning a Porsche and using SNAP. I mean, my son’s car is an old entry-level Audi, but it was purchased long ago before he became fully disabled. The government allows him one car, and it is the only asset he owns to this day, depreciating as the clock ticks. (I think the book value on my son’s Audi is $12,000. 🤣) So I can see how there are circumstances where someone might own a nice car and need aid, BUT - not one worth $100,000 or more! We would have sold THAT and downgraded to one that costs around $25,000 tops. But still people see “Audi” and imagine luxury (he took good care of it so it is nice looking.)

So yeah, there may be cases where you can’t judge the book by the cover, but not THAT many cases, or with such expensive vehicles!

Juju, THESE LUXURY CARS are the sign you've needed to behold: Take the legal benefit, and set aside whatever savings it allows. Take it before it is stolen.

I am located in Chinada. Can't say "live in" as being here right now is more of a survive to tell the tale of sorta thing.

Anyhoo, I also have StarLink, which was buried under 3' of snow at one point, blown on by what I would almost categorize as downdrafts, hailed on, and severely tested by a series of weather events that I'm SURE were normal (*insert massive eye roll here), and never lost it once. The only time it does not work, is when there is no power.

Thinkin' this 'power thing' will soon be rectified as well, but hey, what the hell do I know.

Trump should offer Canadians temporary protected status to escape the tyranny and oppression from the buffoons in Carney's party 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽

There are so many hardworking families trying to leave that country. We could use hard workers who contribute over foreign freeloaders.

I STRONGLY believe that President Trump has YUGE plans for "Canada," which will have the impact of...remember that togued REEEEEE screamer "NOOOOOOOOOO" cuz Orange Man Bad won - on the libtard retards here.

Note to self: add ear plugs on grocery list...

Also, the carnie just imposed a $500,000.00 EXIT tax on anyone wanting to leave "Canada." Since most of the citizenry are scraping to save for no name food anything, some may consider this a potential hostage situation!! PLUS, [they] gave themselves the power to turn off "anyone of interest's" internet, so there's that too.

James Goodrich's avatar

Look at the cast of deviants that have filled the office of FBI director and Attorney General over the past 4 administrations, Clinton’s 2 terms which had FBI director Bill Sessions who was fired for ethical lapses, and Attorney General Janet Reno who oversaw 86 deaths at Waco Texas including 20 children. The follow up for FBI director Sessions was Louise Freeh who took part in Ruby Ridge and the Waco siege.

Then we had Obama with FBI director Robert Mueller and finished with James Comey, who Obama called uniquely qualified. Of coarse Obamas Attorney General was Eric Operation Fast And Furious Holder who gave guns to the Mexican drug cartels which were used to kill American border patrol. Oh yah he was found in contempt of Congress in 2012 for failing to produce documents related to the case after they were subpoenaed. Of coarse nothing happened to him.

Then we had Biden with Merrick Garland as Attorney General and Christopher Wray as FBI director. Handcuffs and Shackles Garland after crying during his confirmation hearing, saying he wanted to be the best Attorney General ever and wanted to pay America back for taking his family in, arrested and jailed thousands of protesters. He put political opponents in handcuffs and shackles, even stripped searched Peter Navarro, despicable. Of coarse Christopher Wray constantly lied under oath. He also took part in the Arctic Frost hoax and the infiltration of the FBI into the January 6th protest, what a POS!

All of these people should have been convicted with long jail sentences if not life in prison for the destruction of peoples lives and the killing of citizens in the wake of their “public service”. With Comey I can’t see how he could be convicted for his sea shell threat, of coarse I don’t know all the evidence, but they have him “six ways to Sunday” for lying under oath, stealing Chuck Schumers line about the deep state. Comey’s another scumbag that destroyed people’s lives and their families while completely knowing they were innocent, it seems to be a requirement for these positions. I don’t have much faith though that he’ll ever see the inside of a prison cell. J.Goodrich

But Janet Reno’s mother built the family home in Florida with her own hands, using a pick and a shovel. My dad and his friends built my parents' first home from the ground up, without ever touching a pick or shovel, so I've always wondered about Mrs. Reno's methodology.

Willing Spirit's avatar

She’s dead now, right? Scripture says it’s a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. I’m sure she would have preferred a prison sentence.

It seems so, based on all the different doubles that are trying to fill in for her. But she didn't take her money with her. My dad used to say: "You'll never see a hearse pulling a U-Haul."

Well perhaps they can get comey bc he did not use speech, the oral word to say 86 47. He formed it in the sand. Not sure that is covered in A1.

They shouldn’t have a problem with lying under oath. They have his testimony and his emails contradicting what he said under oath. The other big plus is it’s not in DC!

Trump seems to know what some would call - in esoteric teachings - the Law of Image.

In plastering his name, his image on everything, as he facilitates, sometimes obnoxiously, his family's business endeavors, and as he actively encourages his offspring to take full LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE ways to benefit from privileged relationships, Trump lays the groundwork for an enduring legend:

Graced with a wife beyond reproach, a one in a million beauty, staggeringly poised and grounded, with his youngest son prophesized in a book published 130 years ago, and even the surname itself: "Trump", how could his story not be more epic, more biblical?

As we know, all of this ring dang do is smearingly ascribed to vanity, egotism, self-dealing, megalomania, etc, but there's another piece of the puzzle that some of us are beginning to complete, namely, Trump is intentionally deploying the power of IMAGE, a power originated in ancient Egypt.

And, if used effectively, from pure thoughts, it can be a power influencing generations to come

(We've all been unknowingly using “image” in our lives, but without understanding the principle, our results have are helter-skelter.)

The image Trump is creating is of a leader beyond any known stature in history. He has the means to create that image; he doesn't care about what people think 'egotism' is.

(“Ego" ... as pop-psychology a term ... meaning a million different things to a million different people: We should all look in the mirror on that mark.)

Our limited imagination precludes seeing 'freedom from ego' on Trump's level. But we can certainly cultivate it in ourselves.

Trump is living for - setting things up for - generations to come. Truth will see through the hot takes, now, and forever.
