"Argentina's Trump" winning; news on the Trump cases; Illinois keeps Trump on ballot; Florida university ditches DEI department; DeSantis vows help for Texas; McCullough crunches numbers; and more.
Now I understand better why no one realized Clark Kent was Super Man. The clothing and those amazing identity changing glasses are the trick. Trump should try some. They won’t be able to find him!
I did a project about 8 years ago that was frankly a little out of my wheelhouse. I mostly do research for private industry. But my client (who also mostly works in private industry) was hired to do a strategic plan for a State IT department, who wanted to use this plan as a tool to ask for a bigger budget. I looked at 5 states similar in population and dug into their IT departments and spending, interviewed folks, and read a number of industry studies and publications. It was frankly scary just how bad it was.
Pay scales don't come even close to what you can make in private industry. So you get what you pay for. Just like the adage 25% of doctors finished in the bottom quartile of their class. Oh you get some who like the job security and benefits, but you also get refugees who couldn't cut it in the for profit world.
Security measures, software updates, and new tech is hard to fund. Cobbled together code makes integration next to impossible, lots of islands.
This was 2015, maybe things are better now, but every time I provide personal information to a govt entity, I do wonder just how secure it is.
Me too. Then there was the time the Red Cross was installing fire alarms, we only needed two. However as I wasn't there at the time. They installed an alarm in every room, five in a 1300 sq foot mobile home. Are they really listening devices? One of the many things I wonder about.
Probably lazy Red Cross volunteers or paid staffers trying to finish their work as fast as possible. Fewer homes to enter, faster they can unload the endless alarms paid for by donors who do no audits.
I can assure you that it isn't better. I've gotten more notifications in the last 6 months about serious hacks into private industry than I've ever gotten, big hacks and that's private industry. I suspect the gov't keeps their hacks more secret...
Yeah my son is in manufacturing. 22 plants - got hit with ransomware and not paying the ransom. Rebuilding systems from the ground up on a plant by plant basis and they are now running production using paper schedules. His is one of the smaller plants so still waiting. Working a lot of hours and he is salary but lots of hourly workers getting OT. The productivity hit on these hacks is a whole lot more than spending the money on good security up front. But a lot of companies learn that the hard way.
Wow. My brother's bank account at Truist got hacked this week. Some fireman in NJ was using fire department equipment to hack into bank accounts. My brother is a nobody in po dunk nowhere NC. He literally has never used a computer (he's a farmer, country bumpkin type) and only ever uses his cell phone to call people, doesn't text, never been on the internet, etc. Fortunately, the guy didn't get any money. My brother has been asking them for years to disable internet access to all of his accounts. They finally did it this week. He told them the same thing about how protecting "online banking" from hackers is going to cost them a lot more money than just going back to paper.
I hate the cloud, want nothing to do with it. BTW, I work in high tech, leading edge stuff.
Sorry to hear about your brother. My mom is the same way, not on the internet, but I handle all of her accounting stuff. We are in between a rock and a hard place though, as mail delivery has gone to h*ll in a handbasket the past few years too. I ended up setting up online access for some things just because she was not getting statements, tax documents, etc in the mail, or getting it weeks or even months late.
But that is comforting to know you hate the cloud. I am only as tech savvy as I need to be and I try to avoid any cloud based SW when I can. I have the perpetual license Office suite, not 365. Have several programs I use for work that are getting glitchy due to age but are now subscription based only, hard pass. Most of the time when I say I hate the cloud I just get the OK Boomer remark. And I am Gen X! Old before my time I guess. Get off my lawn, lol.
I agree with your assessment of the cloud for the most part. However, we live in a rule area and we have had mail stolen from our mailbox several times. So anything online has MFA sometimes Cisco dual whatever I can get to tighten it up.
I don’t know if you remember UCLA Medical Center getting hacked in the news because the security program they were using was 15 years old, and UCLA knew it was just a matter of time. Anyone who worked there or who had gone there most likely ended up with the information stolen. UCLA has the money to stay up to day, but they’d rather spend it on buying $300 million buildings.
yes, 25% of them, our president didn't exactly finish on top either!!! Remember all his lies and the news reporter saying well this is "bye bye Biden". Look at him now. just goes to show how rigged it all is. If they cannot be bought and paid for, the party won't let them win.
And we all know that Biden simply IS NOT running anything. Someone else, or groups of people, are making all the decisions. The occasional speech Biden gives is written by others and he is still somewhat able to read what others write. I'm really frustrated at how the media, even the conservative media, rattle on a and one about Biden's dementia but don't get more vocal about questioning who the real decision makers are. Biden really is a puppet. Harris too. They are merely placeholders. And the Dems get away with it because the situation is never really questioned. Biden should be forced into taking a mental cognition test to start with. Yet no one is apparently able to force even that. So on it goes.
Think about the number of people who never finish college. I think only 30% actually graduate. That doesn’t mean they aren’t smart. I know a lot of people who don’t have degrees, didn’t graduate, or didn’t even go who are smarter than college “educated” people. Matter of fact, all the school board president in our city has to do is open her mouth, and you know within a sentence she’s a dim bulb. She has a higher degree, although I’m unsure how she obtained it.
They are similar to those used by the military. Have a pulse and be willing to do as you are told without thinking about what it is going to do to your victims.
Vonu -sounds like an AI name and all of your responses to me - You are repulsive and offensive in your replies. If you are a paid subscriber, I hope you’d be refunded your money to keep this group free of bottom of the pool slime! May the Star Breather, The Great I Am have mercy on your soul as you are not only demeaning The Name Above All Names, but also our military, not to mention the people on this substak. That’s where I draw the line. Star Breather can and will handle the evil ones of this world who are so afraid of going into their eternity without calling on His Name, but are too proud to acknowledge their need. When you degrade the very people who fight for your right to speak these disgusting words, you have poked the bear, the Mother of a military son, grandson, granddaughter, past relatives and close friends. May you find your justice soon.
Oma, I have a child in the military and I don't understand your response to Vonu. I read it as a continuation of what was being discussed with state IT departments and federal cybersecurity experts. Most of the people in the government, whether they're serving at the state or federal level, are incompetent. The State needs them to be that way to accomplish their mission of destroying the country.
I don't believe my child is one of them, but I do believe the government thrives on such people.
GG, “Have a pulse and be willing to do as you are told without thinking about what it is going to do to your victims” is not the sons and daughters serving in our military. It is not my son, grandson, granddaughter or was it any of my family who served a lifetime, some dying to give us what freedoms we have left. I’m sure it’s not you child either.
Thank you for your politeness in your reply to my comment, unlike in any of Vonu’s comments to some of the nicest people in a group I’ve ever been in.
Yes, ineptness is a prerequisite for most all government jobs. But you can’t be a “Christian atheist” and say anything intelligent.
Blessings on your family and child serving in the most turbulent, insecure time in our history.
My grandfather and husband also served. I believe they served with honor and valor. I know my son does. He suffers because his conscience isn't seared. When I read comments like Vanu's,, I don't take offense because I assume they're not speaking about my family. I don't have any experience with Vanu like you do though, so thank you for your explanation.
See, Oma, I take offense to comments like Resistance Action Australia below because he is impugning my son and his service. That really angers me. Who does he think he is?
Absolutely. I worked for the DOD in the 90’s. Many incompetents were hired even back then because of the way they looked. Many department heads couldn’t speak a grammatically correct sentence. I see it frequently now with police chiefs and fire captains. These are positions that require people to potentially make life or death decisions.
My late father was a WW2 vet, and he spent 25 years in the military. He was a navigator and flyer most of his military career. Back in the early 1980s after he had retired he would often talk about his military "superiors" and how many of them were not all that bright but they knew how to play the games they had to play to get promoted. Once promoted to higher positions they did very little and were basically political players within the military system. My dad was disgusted enough with it all that he didn't even want a military funeral when he died. My dad had a genius level IQ, by the way, and he didn't seek any position in the upper echelons of the military hierarchy as he found it all so disgusting.
I'm sure his Leftist bona fides were stellar and really anyone can do his job; just like the president--a warm body collecting a check and pension. He's a traditionalist in Leftist circles these days, white, gay male. Prob a rich kid too.
That's because his "news sources" deemed James O'Keefe not worthy of sharing with their audience. To their peril. Similar to how they refuse to present DJT. And the sheeple are ok with it until OMG comes along. (If you notice in the video, when James reveals who he is, the guy still doesn't know who he is because he is so uninformed.) BTW, great disguise!
I got curious. Looked on 3 search engines, multiple versions of the search, and LinkedIn, got nothing recent. Lots of Jordan Walker but no Jordan Tristan Walker. People search is not really my thing, though.
Therefore, it says, “God is opposed to the proud and haughty, but [continually] gives [the gift of] grace to the humble [who turn away from self-righteousness].” So submit to [the authority of] God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him] and he will flee from you. Come close to God [with a contrite heart] and He will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; and purify your [unfaithful] hearts, you double-minded [people]. Be miserable and grieve and weep [over your sin]. Let your [foolish] laughter be turned to mourning and your [reckless] joy to gloom. Humble yourselves [with an attitude of repentance and insignificance] in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you [He will lift you up, He will give you purpose].
Those women had free will. They decided to give in to the doctrines of demons. Willfully.
But even before that, ‘We the People’ turned our heads and allowed the RATS to pass Roe v Wade......and .....MEH......went on with our lives. So ‘No’ He hasn’t ‘tolerated’ it. He simply let it take its final course....
And here we are. With a pedo as President, who is also a fool. A cackling hen as VP, and an administration of abominations running our country
And He has a plan to end evil once and for all. In the interim, He allows time for more people to choose Him and be part of that coming world without sin and evil in His presence, eternally. It can be hard to see what’s happening but He knows all and we do not, He has seen what hasn’t yet happened. I trust in God’s plan.
It seems a lot of people think God is cruel because bad things happen. This isn't the case. Bad things happen because God gives humans one of His greatest gifts; free will and the latitude to use it. This is one of our and His greatest joys because it allows us to serve Him faithfully without coercion.
We wouldn't have man-written bibles if those who wrote them didn't have free will to write things to scare their fellow humans into doing what they wanted them to do.
You don't need the Bible to know that allowing someone to decide to freely associating with you is natural while coercing someone to interact with you is an abomination. One is true, the other is false. A world where no bad happens because God forces everyone to be good would be just as false.
You poor wee baby, you are scared into doing things others want you to do? Maybe you should go through puberty and grow up. everything you say or do is because you are scared?
Seneca was an important and very influential philosopher that lived at the same time as Jesus. I’ve read his letters and always wondered why didn’t Seneca ask about Jesus? Why didn’t they meet? All those miracles yet there’s no personal correspondence among people to be found. Why didn’t Jesus write anything? He had a family. Why don’t we know if any of his relatives are still alive? It seems like they would still have great status even today.
To Seneca, Jesus would have been "just some itinerant preacher in Judea", if he'd even heard of him at all. Christianity didn't reach Rome until a decade or so after Jesus' death, and still then wasn't taken seriously by many Romans (what, you want us to worship only ONE god, and you say this god inhabited the body of some executed terrorist who got up and walked around again afterwards? Don't make me laugh!)
Personally, I think it's BECAUSE of the great status that would be attributed to relatives of Jesus, that God allowed such records to be lost. I mean, just look at the fuss made by the Roman church about the "Successor to Peter", and he's not even blood-related, to just one of twelve apostles (though arguably the spokesman).
Perhaps you are saying you don't accept the institutional church(es) with it's "man-made" theology and guilt manipulated control? Sadly, much (most?) of the church does operate this way.
Hey Vonu, it's me again. Laugh at this if you want, but I think Jesus "sent" me a message for you. It's a sermon by a pastor we met years ago when we spent a lot of time in Chattanooga. For awhile I listened to him regularly, but it has been many months since I did so. This sermon link came up on my Facebook page this morning and I was intrigued enough to listen. Travis is not the typical pastor you might expect. Would you please listen? I'm praying for you.
God has always given man free will to decide to follow Him or rebel against Him. It’s the same “story” that has been repeated since the beginning of time. We are all sinners and need to repent and follow Jesus but only through His grace and our repentance, then accepting the atoning work of Jesus’ innocent death on the cross can we be right with God. Our world is broken and fallen through all the sin. Confess, repent and turn away from sin! Follow Jesus! He is coming again soon!
"...God has always given man free will to decide to follow Him or rebel against Him..."
Just to correctly qualify this statement, salvation is solely of God's grace. We do not have free will to save ourselves. Our response to salvation is to follow Him of our own free will. You correctly imply this when you say, "and follow Jesus but only through His grace and our repentance..."
They are just being the irresponsible womanizers that many never grow out of after puberty.
If woman would refuse to spread their legs, they wouldn't need abortions.
If a woman is raped, she should proceed to the nearest ER to have a pelvic exam and a rape kit completed. If she waits until there is detectable brainwave activity or a heartbeat, she is aiding and abetting murder IMO. The legal system is overdue in recognizing that the human zygote is the smallest form of individual humanity and deserving of all applicable rights.
I see now what you take exception to. Your issue is with the fallen state of man, what we call the total depravity of man and the fact that "a god" would allow that. All I can say is the entirety of the Bible is about the fallen state of man and God's provision for redemption and restoration. In that regard, there is NO FREE WILL. Man is born into sin and his salvation is only by the grace of God. Our response to His sovereign grace is our faith in Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God. Thus endth the lesson for the day.
Such a question is based on an erroneous presumption and indicates ignorance at best and evil intent at worst. There is no excuse for the former, and as for the latter, I won’t bite.
You’d prefer perfect conscription to whatever is good for others? Best for others? At what point does it stop? Are we supposed to be making any decisions for ourselves?
Me smells a rat- you want divine intervention in every situation, why don’t you vote for big government? You might be on the wrong blog.
I believe in the self-evident universal consciousness that created everything and would never demand worship while loving its creation unconditionally.
That’s a pretty good definition of God. “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament shows His handiwork” (Psalm 19:1). “The requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness” (Romans 2:15). “This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:3-4). I don't see a demand in any of that.
Vonu, “you are not far from the kingdom of God” (Mark 12:34). Do you have an open mind and enough imagination to try a thought experiment? “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him” (Hebrews 11:6).
To one of your earlier comments . . . Wouldn’t God be able to maintain the accuracy of His message no matter who writes it down? Or let’s assume for a minute that Scripture is corrupted by human writers. Does that change God?
You acknowledge “the self-evident universal consciousness that created everything” and reject theology consistent with that as “completely man-made.” Please explain how that’s not a self-contradicting thought experiment. And since you’re a fan of reality, come clean. Are you the authority on what created everything or a seeker of truth?
Totally off topic, but it does fall under the realm of government interfering with our lives. I am starting a project documenting the skies over Columbus and the "contrails" in them. Perfectly clear skies at sunrise this morning, now less than an hour and a half later, the sun is already dimmed and the sky is covered. I intend to prove, through current and historic photos (meaning photos I've taken since the 80s) that something in the skies is happening. What will doing this obtain? Maybe nothing, but a picture is worth 1,000 words, and at the conclusion of this project, I'm going to start asking meteorologists to explain.
This is an actual company in Nevada proudly explaining their cloud seeding. The 2nd smartest guy recently put a substack together that included all the patents. He also mentioned a statute that makes geo engineering illegal in the US. Jeff, can you look into that please? Is this only for warfare outside the US?
My dad was a physics professor in a small town in Idaho in the 1950’s. He also was known as a rainmaker. Farmers would pay him to seed the clouds. I have a few news articles about his ventures. The technology really is not new.
Unfortunately, this is a slippery slope from a nice small town physicist helping the farmers to a completely blue sky this morning in NE Florida to a cloudy soup of criss cross seeded clouds whose purpose elude me.
I was just telling my husband the other day that when I was growing up in Illinois near an Air Force base as well as an international airport, I never saw “trails” coming out of the jets that routinely flew overhead. Something is definitely different now, and it’s not good.
Document weather conditions when you do. Then people like myself ca prove to you how the conditions in the upper levels determine how many contrails you see, and call chemtrails. Have you ever noticed how they seem to follow a grid pattern? Do you ever wonder why they are so perfect?
Why don’t we see if we can get a law like NH in place in Florida? And other states. I can’t believe that anybody in their right mind would support cloud seeding. That should include democrats.
I saw four forming this morning west of Columbus (actually a whole lot more, but these stood out to me.) They were in perfect formation, same length, same thickness, same distance from each other. I showed someone at work the photo and he said they were incoming planes to the airport. I said then there's going to be one h-ll of a mess because it looks like they will arrive together.
One of my friends said the same, regular contrails because of increased air traffic. It’s complete nonsense unfortunately because we still have days on which they don’t spray, same air traffic though. This has become my most urgent issue. If you care so little and have so little common sense as to fly a plane like this and spray stuff in the atmosphere I am pretty sure you won’t stop at spraying whatever some shady government agent hands you some day (vaccines?). Medical freedom will mean nothing.
Right - I keep thinking to myself that these pilots KNOW what they are doing and clearly don't care. Maybe that's why we have a pilot shortage, other than them just dying from the jabs... they went to work for the shady government.
I didn't realize it until I downloaded the photos I took yesterday, but one of the chemtrails goes from white to black and back to white. There was also a huge black streak on one of the photos. Don't tell me that's a contrail.
These Chem-trails are all over Arizona, too. It is a big topic on X and YouTube where you will find photos from all over the world. Just search Chem trails. Jet Contrails are white frozen water vapour from jet fuel combustion and they don’t stay long after the jet passes. Chem-trails are different. They are a checker board pattern across the sky which do not follow regular flight paths - no idea where all those planes come from! I was on the window side of a flight crossing Utah and a 737 was flying parallel to us and it had massive, thick, dark coloured stuff forming two solid lines that stayed in the sky..did not dissolve like vapour does. Totally un-natural and un-nerving.
insane people don't notice stuff like that. they're sly, not smart. there's a difference . besides, they can jet off to places left uncontrolled, and enjoy themselves in a nice seaside vaycay home. the perpetrators of this also believe they can stop and reverse the damage after they've eliminated the "trash"
I live in South Texas and we don't get a lot of rain. But I've noticed that when the weather channel has a forecast for rain in the coming week,I can look up and see, every day, contrails, then comes the rain. I was worried about this, about how humans seem to be controlling the weather, is everything being controlled? Now I don't care. We just had tons of much needed rain. I can't stop it if that's what's causing it and so I've accepted it for now. On the other hand, there have been many times when rain has been forecast and nothing happened. So, honestly, I don't know. And I remind myself that all the people who think they are controlling everything are not God. They just screw up eventually; they think they have it all figured out, but they just make a mess because they're human. It's God's world.
We should not have any rain now. Florida in winter time is normally weeks of sun, yet every week there are two days of rain forecast. In come the contrails. The earth needs periods of natural sun and rain. Who is to say when rain is ‘much needed’? Is that notion provided by the powers that be via the media and then parroted around?
That's not good. Are they all over your skies in all directions, too, or do there seem to be more to the west of you (which would be Columbus). I'm curious because I can already hear people blaming the trails in the skies on Port Columbus.
My coworker said they could be from Wright Pat, and I said come on, give me a break. They are all over the country. Yep, my skies in Cbus were pretty gray by about 3 p.m, too. Infuriating!
I feel like once Megyn Kelly commits to an issue, she goes "all in." See her change of heart on the whole trans thing. Happy to have her on board. She sounds downright resentful when talking about the shots (and she didn't have her kids get them).
Agree, nice to have them on board even if belatedly.
It is a bit unsettling that so many influential and powerful people couldn't see this stuff from the start and only realized it was a bad idea after problems started showing up. Anyone with a shred of common sense could tell that everyone pretending a man can turn into a woman wasn't going to end well. Better late than never though I guess.
I think those of us who have known old school transsexuals were slow or are still lost at sea with the trans issue not seeing that this is a completely completely different ball of wax. Old school transsexuals wanted to pass as opposite sex but did not believe they were the opposite sex, they paid for their own surgeries and made the decision as an adult after much deliberation. The new thing is grotesque medical and legal scandal opening doors for some truly terrifying concepts.
I mean, sure, but she has made some very public statements and on the trans issue has really put herself out there. I see some issues VERY differently than she does (she is living in 2004 or 2008, politically), but I'm happy to have her more awake.
Megyn Kelly, who I like and listen to regularly, still insists Biden won 2020. While she does change her mind on things, she’s still got a long way to go.
It’s terrible that she has to lose her sister AND get a disease for her to open her eyes. You would think after getting fired from Fox her eyes would have been opened wider.
Too bad she didn't bail out as she had plenty of wealth. Unlike a lot of military and folks in rural areas who had no good alternative when faced with 'get jabbed or get fired/discharged and lose all medical and pensions'.
I’ve always been bothered less by true believers in the jab than those who knew something wasn’t quite right but got it to travel or go to concert etc. The people who where willing to lose livelihood helped turn thing around and others caved for so much less.
I don’t have any sympathy for this. Such foolishness! My MIL got it to go into LA! Smh!!!! I would live as a hermit if I had to. Who cares. When your life is ruined you will deeply regret doing it so you can partake( travel, play, school, 🙄)
From other things she's said, she's slow to go all in on anything she considers "conspiracy" - like that elections were stolen. I don't know if she doesn't go all in for business reasons, i.e., YouTube, doesn't want to be branded, or if she's just very cautious and, well, slow about some things. I like her, she's really smart, but a little slow on the uptake on this.
We'd be better off if more famous people had the courage to talk about why they didn't get the vaccines.
The only notable thing that Megyn Kelly has done, IMO, was display her astonishment while moderating a debate on a foreign stage when Putin told her in plain English, "Don't worry, be happy." The shot went from Putin to her with her mouth hanging open. It was the best part of a generally otherwise vanilla event.
She dropped precipitously in my view when she adopted the vocabulary of a sailor after starting her own program. Those who rely on vulgarity don't deserve any respect from intelligent viewers.
They should know better than to target those strong and brave enough to speak out. They’re just going to be stronger and braver when attacked. Morons! Go Megyn! 👏👏
One of our local meteorologists refused to go along with the climate change BS, and he is now a state senator in KS. Mike Thompson. And a local news guy who saw Covid as the last straw in the lefty march on his station quit and ran for Congress in MO's 4th District, Mark Alford. He ran a pretty vanilla campaign in a red district, I was skeptical, and couldn't vote for him anyway, but he's been surprisingly good, and supports Trump. So there are a few out there that stand up.
Her sister died from a heart attack @ 58 years of age. Megyn has said her sister was a recovering opioid addict via prescription drugs provided by her doctor several years ago for a painful health issue. Apparently, she had been clean for a year before she died. I don't recall Megyn ever disclosing her sister took the jabs or suggesting her sister's death was caused by the jabs but who knows. Either way, big pharma had a hand in her unfortunate demise.
The fact that this dolt couldn’t recognize James O’Keefe just shows how much of a bubble the left lives in. What a disgrace to this country.
Now I understand better why no one realized Clark Kent was Super Man. The clothing and those amazing identity changing glasses are the trick. Trump should try some. They won’t be able to find him!
Hahahahaha! GOOD one, Temcol!

🤣🤣🤣True!

Maybe this will set a new standard and someone with a government job will finally get fired.

If anyone deserves an Academy Award it is James O'Keefe!!
we have very low standards of hiring in our govt.

Probably the MORE alarms they install, the more they get financially.
I can assure you that it isn't better. I've gotten more notifications in the last 6 months about serious hacks into private industry than I've ever gotten, big hacks and that's private industry. I suspect the gov't keeps their hacks more secret...

Wow. My brother's bank account at Truist got hacked this week. Some fireman in NJ was using fire department equipment to hack into bank accounts. My brother is a nobody in po dunk nowhere NC. He literally has never used a computer (he's a farmer, country bumpkin type) and only ever uses his cell phone to call people, doesn't text, never been on the internet, etc. Fortunately, the guy didn't get any money.

Sorry to hear about your brother. My mom is the same way, not on the internet, but I handle all of her accounting stuff. We are in between a rock and a hard place though, as mail delivery has gone to h*ll in a handbasket the past few years too. I ended up setting up online access for some things just because she was not getting statements, tax documents, etc in the mail, or getting it weeks or even months late.
But that is comforting to know you hate the cloud. I am only as tech savvy as I need to be and I try to avoid any cloud based SW when I can. I have the perpetual license Office suite, not 365. Have several programs I use for work that are getting glitchy due to age but are now subscription based only, hard pass. Most of the time when I say I hate the cloud I just get the OK Boomer remark. And I am Gen X! Old before my time I guess. Get off my lawn, lol.
I agree with your assessment of the cloud for the most part. However, we live in a rule area and we have had mail stolen from our mailbox several times. So anything online has MFA sometimes Cisco dual whatever I can get to tighten it up.
I don’t know if you remember UCLA Medical Center getting hacked in the news because the security program they were using was 15 years old, and UCLA knew it was just a matter of time. Anyone who worked there or who had gone there most likely ended up with the information stolen. UCLA has the money to stay up to day, but they’d rather spend it on buying $300 million buildings.
Yes, With all the hacks these days, seems we are already at war, the media just has not acknowledged it.
yes, 25% of them, our president didn't exactly finish on top either!!! Remember all his lies and the news reporter saying well this is "bye bye Biden". Look at him now. just goes to show how rigged it all is. If they cannot be bought and paid for, the party won't let them win.
And we all know that Biden simply IS NOT running anything. Someone else, or groups of people, are making all the decisions. The occasional speech Biden gives is written by others and he is still somewhat able to read what others write. I'm really frustrated at how the media, even the conservative media, rattle on a and one about Biden's dementia but don't get more vocal about questioning who the real decision makers are. Biden really is a puppet. Harris too. They are merely placeholders. And the Dems get away with it because the situation is never really questioned. Biden should be forced into taking a mental cognition test to start with. Yet no one is apparently able to force even that. So on it goes.
And it’s shocking how many people think he’s doing a great job.
Think about the number of people who never finish college. I think only 30% actually graduate. That doesn’t mean they aren’t smart. I know a lot of people who don’t have degrees, didn’t graduate, or didn’t even go who are smarter than college “educated” people. Matter of fact, all the school board president in our city has to do is open her mouth, and you know within a sentence she’s a dim bulb. She has a higher degree, although I’m unsure how she obtained it.
I doubt things are better now. I’m guessing worse.
And evidentally many that work close to the president must be lgbtqwertyia++++.
Somebody up at the top likes them that way.
YYR,
The saying “Fish rot from the head down”.........Biden is proving that to be true and it’s very disheartening
Because they're all attracted to minors. 🤮
Birds of a feather...
like Obama? Wonder how Michael feels about that
😳🫢
.....just say, "the letter people"
Is LGBT a check-off box on a Federal employment application?
Sure seems like it. Otherwise, this white male probably wouldn’t have been hired.
They are similar to those used by the military. Have a pulse and be willing to do as you are told without thinking about what it is going to do to your victims.
Vonu -sounds like an AI name and all of your responses to me - You are repulsive and offensive in your replies. If you are a paid subscriber, I hope you’d be refunded your money to keep this group free of bottom of the pool slime! May the Star Breather, The Great I Am have mercy on your soul as you are not only demeaning The Name Above All Names, but also our military, not to mention the people on this substak. That’s where I draw the line. Star Breather can and will handle the evil ones of this world who are so afraid of going into their eternity without calling on His Name, but are too proud to acknowledge their need. When you degrade the very people who fight for your right to speak these disgusting words, you have poked the bear, the Mother of a military son, grandson, granddaughter, past relatives and close friends. May you find your justice soon.
Oma, I have a child in the military and I don't understand your response to Vonu. I read it as a continuation of what was being discussed with state IT departments and federal cybersecurity experts. Most of the people in the government, whether they're serving at the state or federal level, are incompetent. The State needs them to be that way to accomplish their mission of destroying the country.
I don't believe my child is one of them, but I do believe the government thrives on such people.
GG, “Have a pulse and be willing to do as you are told without thinking about what it is going to do to your victims” is not the sons and daughters serving in our military. It is not my son, grandson, granddaughter or was it any of my family who served a lifetime, some dying to give us what freedoms we have left. I’m sure it’s not you child either.
Thank you for your politeness in your reply to my comment, unlike in any of Vonu’s comments to some of the nicest people in a group I’ve ever been in.
Yes, ineptness is a prerequisite for most all government jobs. But you can’t be a “Christian atheist” and say anything intelligent.
Blessings on your family and child serving in the most turbulent, insecure time in our history.
My grandfather and husband also served. I believe they served with honor and valor. I know my son does. He suffers because his conscience isn't seared. When I read comments like Vanu's,, I don't take offense because I assume they're not speaking about my family. I don't have any experience with Vanu like you do though, so thank you for your explanation.
God bless.
See, Oma, I take offense to comments like Resistance Action Australia below because he is impugning my son and his service. That really angers me. Who does he think he is?
??
Absolutely. I worked for the DOD in the 90’s. Many incompetents were hired even back then because of the way they looked. Many department heads couldn’t speak a grammatically correct sentence. I see it frequently now with police chiefs and fire captains. These are positions that require people to potentially make life or death decisions.
My late father was a WW2 vet, and he spent 25 years in the military. He was a navigator and flyer most of his military career. Back in the early 1980s after he had retired he would often talk about his military "superiors" and how many of them were not all that bright but they knew how to play the games they had to play to get promoted. Once promoted to higher positions they did very little and were basically political players within the military system. My dad was disgusted enough with it all that he didn't even want a military funeral when he died. My dad had a genius level IQ, by the way, and he didn't seek any position in the upper echelons of the military hierarchy as he found it all so disgusting.
Yes. And the WRONG standards.
I'm sure his Leftist bona fides were stellar and really anyone can do his job; just like the president--a warm body collecting a check and pension. He's a traditionalist in Leftist circles these days, white, gay male. Prob a rich kid too.
That's because his "news sources" deemed James O'Keefe not worthy of sharing with their audience. To their peril. Similar to how they refuse to present DJT. And the sheeple are ok with it until OMG comes along. (If you notice in the video, when James reveals who he is, the guy still doesn't know who he is because he is so uninformed.) BTW, great disguise!
Ya, no backlash. Wonder ehat happened to that Jordan guy who freaked out!?
I got curious. Looked on 3 search engines, multiple versions of the search, and LinkedIn, got nothing recent. Lots of Jordan Walker but no Jordan Tristan Walker. People search is not really my thing, though.
These “date” videos are too similar to each other. Quite the distraction and always a lack of action.
Exactly. Feels like theatre to me.
It must be on the Biden hiring website. "Per the Big Guy only gay horny stupid men apply." smh.
Or it was set up from the beginning. Acting. So much drama and chaos and “messaging” sent through “trusted” journalists.
these folks are sly, and formally educated.
they are not smart
Therefore, it says, “God is opposed to the proud and haughty, but [continually] gives [the gift of] grace to the humble [who turn away from self-righteousness].” So submit to [the authority of] God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him] and he will flee from you. Come close to God [with a contrite heart] and He will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; and purify your [unfaithful] hearts, you double-minded [people]. Be miserable and grieve and weep [over your sin]. Let your [foolish] laughter be turned to mourning and your [reckless] joy to gloom. Humble yourselves [with an attitude of repentance and insignificance] in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you [He will lift you up, He will give you purpose].
— James 4:6-10 AMP
Janice, try putting this prompt "a pop Christian song inspired by James 4:6-10" into app.suno.ai
Okkk…I got “Grace Overflows” and “Humble Hearts.” That was a new experience for me. 😀
Not even sure I did what you suggested . . .
Is this the same God that has tolerated the murder of millions of unborn babies for the convenience of loose women?
Those women had free will. They decided to give in to the doctrines of demons. Willfully.
But even before that, ‘We the People’ turned our heads and allowed the RATS to pass Roe v Wade......and .....MEH......went on with our lives. So ‘No’ He hasn’t ‘tolerated’ it. He simply let it take its final course....
And here we are. With a pedo as President, who is also a fool. A cackling hen as VP, and an administration of abominations running our country
Very well said CStone!
Well said CStone! You summed it up correctly.
And He has a plan to end evil once and for all. In the interim, He allows time for more people to choose Him and be part of that coming world without sin and evil in His presence, eternally. It can be hard to see what’s happening but He knows all and we do not, He has seen what hasn’t yet happened. I trust in God’s plan.
You also have free will but you don't appear to be using it in your choice of information sources.
And where are your information choices?
Snopes? 😂
Definitely not you since I'll be ignoring your ad hominem attacks henceforth.
And second of all, exactly ‘HOW’ did I attack you? I didn’........
And what kind of attack was yours?
It seems a lot of people think God is cruel because bad things happen. This isn't the case. Bad things happen because God gives humans one of His greatest gifts; free will and the latitude to use it. This is one of our and His greatest joys because it allows us to serve Him faithfully without coercion.
We wouldn't have man-written bibles if those who wrote them didn't have free will to write things to scare their fellow humans into doing what they wanted them to do.
You don't need the Bible to know that allowing someone to decide to freely associating with you is natural while coercing someone to interact with you is an abomination. One is true, the other is false. A world where no bad happens because God forces everyone to be good would be just as false.
If you are scared by what is written in the BIBLES
I'm never been interested in any form of fiction to read enough of it to get scared.
Have you ever heard Bill Cosby's Chicken Heart routine. You really should.
You poor wee baby, you are scared into doing things others want you to do? Maybe you should go through puberty and grow up. everything you say or do is because you are scared?
I will be ignoring your ad hominem attacks henceforth.
I thank God for the ability to think for myself. What about you, Vonu ?
Seneca was an important and very influential philosopher that lived at the same time as Jesus. I’ve read his letters and always wondered why didn’t Seneca ask about Jesus? Why didn’t they meet? All those miracles yet there’s no personal correspondence among people to be found. Why didn’t Jesus write anything? He had a family. Why don’t we know if any of his relatives are still alive? It seems like they would still have great status even today.
To Seneca, Jesus would have been "just some itinerant preacher in Judea", if he'd even heard of him at all. Christianity didn't reach Rome until a decade or so after Jesus' death, and still then wasn't taken seriously by many Romans (what, you want us to worship only ONE god, and you say this god inhabited the body of some executed terrorist who got up and walked around again afterwards? Don't make me laugh!)
Personally, I think it's BECAUSE of the great status that would be attributed to relatives of Jesus, that God allowed such records to be lost. I mean, just look at the fuss made by the Roman church about the "Successor to Peter", and he's not even blood-related, to just one of twelve apostles (though arguably the spokesman).
I don't have anyone else to credit for being a Christian atheist.
What in the Sam Hill (expression my 4 year old grandson amuses me by saying) is a Christian atheist? The two words are contradictory.
A Christian is one who follows Jesus Christ instead of man-made deities created for the purpose of controlling others.
Thank you for the response, but Jesus Christ claimed to be God, for which He was crucified.
Perhaps you are saying you don't accept the institutional church(es) with it's "man-made" theology and guilt manipulated control? Sadly, much (most?) of the church does operate this way.
Hey Vonu, it's me again. Laugh at this if you want, but I think Jesus "sent" me a message for you. It's a sermon by a pastor we met years ago when we spent a lot of time in Chattanooga. For awhile I listened to him regularly, but it has been many months since I did so. This sermon link came up on my Facebook page this morning and I was intrigued enough to listen. Travis is not the typical pastor you might expect. Would you please listen? I'm praying for you.

He died for those loose women, too, and as long they have breath, they have a chance to repent. Those babies are lost to us, but not to Him.
He gives us all free will.
I don’t think we are free or have free will. Money and privilege give free will.
To a degree. My sibling is very successful but a slave to his LOVE of money. He will never have enough. Sad.
It is our natural state.
God has always given man free will to decide to follow Him or rebel against Him. It’s the same “story” that has been repeated since the beginning of time. We are all sinners and need to repent and follow Jesus but only through His grace and our repentance, then accepting the atoning work of Jesus’ innocent death on the cross can we be right with God. Our world is broken and fallen through all the sin. Confess, repent and turn away from sin! Follow Jesus! He is coming again soon!
"...God has always given man free will to decide to follow Him or rebel against Him..."
Just to correctly qualify this statement, salvation is solely of God's grace. We do not have free will to save ourselves. Our response to salvation is to follow Him of our own free will. You correctly imply this when you say, "and follow Jesus but only through His grace and our repentance..."
When does your theology say that time began?
I think loose men have something to do with it too. Don't you?
They are just being the irresponsible womanizers that many never grow out of after puberty.
If woman would refuse to spread their legs, they wouldn't need abortions.
If a woman is raped, she should proceed to the nearest ER to have a pelvic exam and a rape kit completed. If she waits until there is detectable brainwave activity or a heartbeat, she is aiding and abetting murder IMO. The legal system is overdue in recognizing that the human zygote is the smallest form of individual humanity and deserving of all applicable rights.
Though I have different presuppositions, I come to the exact same conclusion.
A legislative recognition that the human zygote is a genetically unique human being would be the end of abortions because they'd clearly be murders.
What I've been saying forever and a proposition the American church has not had the clarity or courage to get behind.
😲
How do you know God “tolerates” it?
Did he tell you that? Did you ask?
Do you also tolerate it?
What kind of conversations do you have with God?
I see now what you take exception to. Your issue is with the fallen state of man, what we call the total depravity of man and the fact that "a god" would allow that. All I can say is the entirety of the Bible is about the fallen state of man and God's provision for redemption and restoration. In that regard, there is NO FREE WILL. Man is born into sin and his salvation is only by the grace of God. Our response to His sovereign grace is our faith in Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God. Thus endth the lesson for the day.
Such a question is based on an erroneous presumption and indicates ignorance at best and evil intent at worst. There is no excuse for the former, and as for the latter, I won’t bite.
You’d prefer perfect conscription to whatever is good for others? Best for others? At what point does it stop? Are we supposed to be making any decisions for ourselves?
Me smells a rat- you want divine intervention in every situation, why don’t you vote for big government? You might be on the wrong blog.
I'd prefer the constitutional army that has only a 2 year allocation when it is needed.
Why do you assume God tolerates it?
Because he does nothing to stop blatant murder of the innocent.
No. That's a different god.
I don't believe in any god.
I believe in the self-evident universal consciousness that created everything and would never demand worship while loving its creation unconditionally.
That’s a pretty good definition of God. “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament shows His handiwork” (Psalm 19:1). “The requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness” (Romans 2:15). “This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:3-4). I don't see a demand in any of that.
Vonu, “you are not far from the kingdom of God” (Mark 12:34). Do you have an open mind and enough imagination to try a thought experiment? “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him” (Hebrews 11:6).
To one of your earlier comments . . . Wouldn’t God be able to maintain the accuracy of His message no matter who writes it down? Or let’s assume for a minute that Scripture is corrupted by human writers. Does that change God?
Why would an imaginary deity need to be defined?
Thought experiments are for those can't perceive reality.
I don't know where you imagined that I mentioned the accuracy of a completely man-made theology.
You acknowledge “the self-evident universal consciousness that created everything” and reject theology consistent with that as “completely man-made.” Please explain how that’s not a self-contradicting thought experiment. And since you’re a fan of reality, come clean. Are you the authority on what created everything or a seeker of truth?
Totally off topic, but it does fall under the realm of government interfering with our lives. I am starting a project documenting the skies over Columbus and the "contrails" in them. Perfectly clear skies at sunrise this morning, now less than an hour and a half later, the sun is already dimmed and the sky is covered. I intend to prove, through current and historic photos (meaning photos I've taken since the 80s) that something in the skies is happening. What will doing this obtain? Maybe nothing, but a picture is worth 1,000 words, and at the conclusion of this project, I'm going to start asking meteorologists to explain.
Look what I found: https://www.dri.edu/cloud-seeding-program/
This is an actual company in Nevada proudly explaining their cloud seeding. The 2nd smartest guy recently put a substack together that included all the patents. He also mentioned a statute that makes geo engineering illegal in the US. Jeff, can you look into that please? Is this only for warfare outside the US?
My dad was a physics professor in a small town in Idaho in the 1950’s. He also was known as a rainmaker. Farmers would pay him to seed the clouds. I have a few news articles about his ventures. The technology really is not new.
It seems though that there is lot more of it going on these days. Did your dad have an airplane?
Not at the time. Someone flew him around. It was only for a few years. He was involved in many ventures or should I say adventures in his lifetime.
Unfortunately, this is a slippery slope from a nice small town physicist helping the farmers to a completely blue sky this morning in NE Florida to a cloudy soup of criss cross seeded clouds whose purpose elude me.
My thoughts exactly! Something is up.
I will absolutely check that out - thank you!
This is wrong on so many levels.
Limiting it to what can be done from the ground instead of from aircraft would limit the effects.
Chemtrails Destroying Planet Earth
Here is the proof:
www.geoengineeringwatch.org
I was just telling my husband the other day that when I was growing up in Illinois near an Air Force base as well as an international airport, I never saw “trails” coming out of the jets that routinely flew overhead. Something is definitely different now, and it’s not good.
Reinette Senum is suing strategically a weather modification company to start setting precedent. She has a Substack.
Document weather conditions when you do. Then people like myself ca prove to you how the conditions in the upper levels determine how many contrails you see, and call chemtrails. Have you ever noticed how they seem to follow a grid pattern? Do you ever wonder why they are so perfect?
It’s like they’re weaving an impenetrable basket of chemicals over our heads.
Bill Gates made the statement that he was going to “Dim the Sun”.......and he’s doing it.
Killing us softly, and apparently there’s nothing we can do about it.
Why don’t we see if we can get a law like NH in place in Florida? And other states. I can’t believe that anybody in their right mind would support cloud seeding. That should include democrats.
I saw four forming this morning west of Columbus (actually a whole lot more, but these stood out to me.) They were in perfect formation, same length, same thickness, same distance from each other. I showed someone at work the photo and he said they were incoming planes to the airport. I said then there's going to be one h-ll of a mess because it looks like they will arrive together.
One of my friends said the same, regular contrails because of increased air traffic. It’s complete nonsense unfortunately because we still have days on which they don’t spray, same air traffic though. This has become my most urgent issue. If you care so little and have so little common sense as to fly a plane like this and spray stuff in the atmosphere I am pretty sure you won’t stop at spraying whatever some shady government agent hands you some day (vaccines?). Medical freedom will mean nothing.
Right - I keep thinking to myself that these pilots KNOW what they are doing and clearly don't care. Maybe that's why we have a pilot shortage, other than them just dying from the jabs... they went to work for the shady government.
I didn't realize it until I downloaded the photos I took yesterday, but one of the chemtrails goes from white to black and back to white. There was also a huge black streak on one of the photos. Don't tell me that's a contrail.
I would love to know what ‘We the People’ could do to stop it. Many understanding is that it is subsidized by Gates, another demon posing as a human.
What could ‘we’ possibly do to legally stop this?
I am thinking of promoting a law like the one in NH here in Florida. Maybe our man Jeff can help? 🤞
These Chem-trails are all over Arizona, too. It is a big topic on X and YouTube where you will find photos from all over the world. Just search Chem trails. Jet Contrails are white frozen water vapour from jet fuel combustion and they don’t stay long after the jet passes. Chem-trails are different. They are a checker board pattern across the sky which do not follow regular flight paths - no idea where all those planes come from! I was on the window side of a flight crossing Utah and a 737 was flying parallel to us and it had massive, thick, dark coloured stuff forming two solid lines that stayed in the sky..did not dissolve like vapour does. Totally un-natural and un-nerving.
I’ve heard this too. Kind of messes with their big plans for solar.
insane people don't notice stuff like that. they're sly, not smart. there's a difference . besides, they can jet off to places left uncontrolled, and enjoy themselves in a nice seaside vaycay home. the perpetrators of this also believe they can stop and reverse the damage after they've eliminated the "trash"
Same in KS.
I live in South Texas and we don't get a lot of rain. But I've noticed that when the weather channel has a forecast for rain in the coming week,I can look up and see, every day, contrails, then comes the rain. I was worried about this, about how humans seem to be controlling the weather, is everything being controlled? Now I don't care. We just had tons of much needed rain. I can't stop it if that's what's causing it and so I've accepted it for now. On the other hand, there have been many times when rain has been forecast and nothing happened. So, honestly, I don't know. And I remind myself that all the people who think they are controlling everything are not God. They just screw up eventually; they think they have it all figured out, but they just make a mess because they're human. It's God's world.
We should not have any rain now. Florida in winter time is normally weeks of sun, yet every week there are two days of rain forecast. In come the contrails. The earth needs periods of natural sun and rain. Who is to say when rain is ‘much needed’? Is that notion provided by the powers that be via the media and then parroted around?
And, noticing lately that I don’t need sunglasses. We used to have 300 days of sunshine here. Tons of chemtrails now.

I'm in Nashport, in between Newark and Zanesville. I just looked up and yep, I see them here too 45 minutes away.
That's not good. Are they all over your skies in all directions, too, or do there seem to be more to the west of you (which would be Columbus). I'm curious because I can already hear people blaming the trails in the skies on Port Columbus.
Aren’t the meteorologists under a non disclosure?
I live 15 miles from wright pat. beautiful sunny morning, full of con trails. is now 3:07 pm, and just gray.
My coworker said they could be from Wright Pat, and I said come on, give me a break. They are all over the country. Yep, my skies in Cbus were pretty gray by about 3 p.m, too. Infuriating!
Follow New Hampshire, they have a bill in right now.

Moderna is targeting Megyn Kelly for disclosing how bad her 3rd covid shot injured her.
https://twitter.com/TheChiefNerd/status/1752667133157286165 55sec vid
Dangit I forgot to spell it 'Murderna'. I'm not going to edit it now. LOL
Reminds me of how I mean to type shots but I always type shits by accident. Maybe I won't edit myself anymore! 😁
I have corrected shits to shots sooooo many times! We should have started leaving it two years ago! 😁
love this! changes the whole sentence
"Many people got the shits. others refused the shits altogether. some who took the shits have died. the shits should be outlawed."
Hilarious to me
explains the usefulness of masking, cuts down on the smell
Actually, there really is a “smell.” See A Midwestern Doctor’s The Forgotten Side of Medicine regarding the odor of shedding.
I’m not the only one! And dics for docs, too.
🤣🤣🤣😇
It’s like when I type Biden but it comes out OByedumb…..
I feel like once Megyn Kelly commits to an issue, she goes "all in." See her change of heart on the whole trans thing. Happy to have her on board. She sounds downright resentful when talking about the shots (and she didn't have her kids get them).
Agree, nice to have them on board even if belatedly.
It is a bit unsettling that so many influential and powerful people couldn't see this stuff from the start and only realized it was a bad idea after problems started showing up. Anyone with a shred of common sense could tell that everyone pretending a man can turn into a woman wasn't going to end well. Better late than never though I guess.
I think those of us who have known old school transsexuals were slow or are still lost at sea with the trans issue not seeing that this is a completely completely different ball of wax. Old school transsexuals wanted to pass as opposite sex but did not believe they were the opposite sex, they paid for their own surgeries and made the decision as an adult after much deliberation. The new thing is grotesque medical and legal scandal opening doors for some truly terrifying concepts.
Great point. Thank you for mentioning that.
"Influential and powerful people" are not always the sharpest knife the drawer. We all know plenty of them......
The primary thing that Megyn Kelly is committed to is her own income.
I mean, sure, but she has made some very public statements and on the trans issue has really put herself out there. I see some issues VERY differently than she does (she is living in 2004 or 2008, politically), but I'm happy to have her more awake.
I can't return to the thread so I don't know who she is.
Oh, sorry. Megyn Kelly is the she :)
Now that I know who the she was, I don't remember why it was relevant.
I can't return to the thread so I don't know who she is.
Megyn Kelly, who I like and listen to regularly, still insists Biden won 2020. While she does change her mind on things, she’s still got a long way to go.
Agreed.
I’m glad famous people are continuing to talk about it!!!!
For sure. And she has seen the light. Alex Berenson and others have been helping her.
It’s terrible that she has to lose her sister AND get a disease for her to open her eyes. You would think after getting fired from Fox her eyes would have been opened wider.
She had mentioned that to partake in anything in NYC, proof of vax was required.
Too bad she didn't bail out as she had plenty of wealth. Unlike a lot of military and folks in rural areas who had no good alternative when faced with 'get jabbed or get fired/discharged and lose all medical and pensions'.
University of Pittsburgh still requiring covid shots and boosters.
What do you expect from a university who sewed dead/live baby scalps onto the backs of mice? "Research" funded by Fauci/NIH.
I’ve always been bothered less by true believers in the jab than those who knew something wasn’t quite right but got it to travel or go to concert etc. The people who where willing to lose livelihood helped turn thing around and others caved for so much less.
⬆️💯
Sadly, many millions of people were forced to make this decision to feed and house their families.
One of the darkest periods in American history.
Ditto for folks in Germany. Yet my good friend resisted and made it. Some creativity required at times.
I have no doubt. Job or jab.
I live in NYC. I simply didn’t “partake”. That said, I’m not high profile and on major invitation lists. 🤗
I don’t have any sympathy for this. Such foolishness! My MIL got it to go into LA! Smh!!!! I would live as a hermit if I had to. Who cares. When your life is ruined you will deeply regret doing it so you can partake( travel, play, school, 🙄)
She’s famous and rich. I can’t believe she could’nt have gotten a religious exemption.
I'm surprised she wasn't open minded enough to even consider if covid was a bioweapon...along with the shots.
From other things she's said, she's slow to go all in on anything she considers "conspiracy" - like that elections were stolen. I don't know if she doesn't go all in for business reasons, i.e., YouTube, doesn't want to be branded, or if she's just very cautious and, well, slow about some things. I like her, she's really smart, but a little slow on the uptake on this.
We'd be better off if more famous people had the courage to talk about why they didn't get the vaccines.
The only notable thing that Megyn Kelly has done, IMO, was display her astonishment while moderating a debate on a foreign stage when Putin told her in plain English, "Don't worry, be happy." The shot went from Putin to her with her mouth hanging open. It was the best part of a generally otherwise vanilla event.
lol. I didn’t see that. I’m not a fan of hers bc I’m too far down the rabbit hole 🤷🏻♀️
She dropped precipitously in my view when she adopted the vocabulary of a sailor after starting her own program. Those who rely on vulgarity don't deserve any respect from intelligent viewers.
A different generation.
Morality hasn't changed.
Just think of what a game changer it would be if Taylor Swift or Travis Kelce (Mr Pfizer) were to come down with a jab related injury or worse!
Not wishing anyone ill will, but that would go a long way to bring jab injury deniers to the light!
Le Bron James sure kept quiet about his son.
Yeah, he's part of the problem! But, he's a coward anyways! He doesn't want to risk the bad pr from mainstream media like Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers and Djokovic are standing up for what's common sense medical advice!
And they're not worried about what mainstream media thinks or says about them!
But when it involves your own young son. Plus he has loads of money so no financial issue.
If it were a child of mine, it would give me more incentive to speak out about it!
And if I had his kind of money and his popularity, I would use it to make sure the these murderest, injury ridden drug companies paid for it!
I’m sure they were given a placebo🤬
Did they take the real jab?
Who knows?🤷
They should know better than to target those strong and brave enough to speak out. They’re just going to be stronger and braver when attacked. Morons! Go Megyn! 👏👏
One of our local (long-time) meterologists and his co-worker, a young news anchor, both refused the shots and lost their jobs.
Happily, the news anchor found a more hospitable station in town, and the meterologist is running for state rep.
One of our local meteorologists refused to go along with the climate change BS, and he is now a state senator in KS. Mike Thompson. And a local news guy who saw Covid as the last straw in the lefty march on his station quit and ran for Congress in MO's 4th District, Mark Alford. He ran a pretty vanilla campaign in a red district, I was skeptical, and couldn't vote for him anyway, but he's been surprisingly good, and supports Trump. So there are a few out there that stand up.
Where , if I may ask?

And then there’s that self absorbed idiot, Kelce, pushing the jab during every single NFL game. What a fool!
Didn’t her sister die from the shot?
Her sister died from a heart attack @ 58 years of age. Megyn has said her sister was a recovering opioid addict via prescription drugs provided by her doctor several years ago for a painful health issue. Apparently, she had been clean for a year before she died. I don't recall Megyn ever disclosing her sister took the jabs or suggesting her sister's death was caused by the jabs but who knows. Either way, big pharma had a hand in her unfortunate demise.
She is already getting enough of what she deserves and if Moderna had any sense, they'd stop ripping off weeping scabs.
