Great news! DEI departments under siege; Argentina abolishes PBS; El Salvador sheds gender ideology; surprising statistics in Schiff Senate race; Biden more confused then ever; Supreme Ct alert; more.
I retired March 1st. We are moving from woke normie chester county pa to SC. My husband and I could not stand living in an area of woke, vaxxed non-critical thinkers any longer. I also could see the side effects of the vaxx accelerating. So much illness etc. My exit interview I gave my criticism of the company's dei program. I used many links brought up through our C&C discussions. I said they had to stop celebrating MLK Jr day because he wanted a society where people weren't judged by superficial like race but on character. They were shocked. I gave another criticism regarding their handling of the scamdemic. Yes. I said scamdemic. Most of their policies have been debunked as total BS. I said while big pharma has legal immunity, they do not. I said I had no intention of litigation. I only wanted to point out, for the good of current and future employees and the company. So these falsehoods and policies won't happen again. I finally added I spoke up because I can. Many can't or hesitate because they are afraid of losing their jobs. Interesting exit interview.
@Annie I bet you gave the “legal types” quite a lot to consider! Way to go 👊🏼 And congrats on your retirement! 🍾 May your new home and season bring you many years of joy and happiness 🙏🏻
Bravo! I wish I could have seen their shocked, self righteous faces. Blessings on you for speaking up. Have a wonderful retirement in SC. We are also in wokeland. Pondering our retirement choices as well. Family might keep us here but we are with you in spirit believe me.
I was watching Biden walk through the grass on Fox to get onboard the helicopter. I was focused on his feet to see how he was walking, when he exited the tall grass it looked like his shoes had flaps or wings on them, down by the souls.
Funny you mention that. In the video of him shuffling along at his border visit, I pointed out to my husband that it looked like his feet were bent out to the sides. Reminded me of my feet in ice skates as a young child, splayed out at the ankles.
I only wish more people had the courage you showed - even on their way out. Believe it or not most people, on their way out, will still kiss ass instead of speak the truth because they just don’t care by that point. It’s a shame. Standing ovation for you!
Thank you. I tried to frame it as concern for the well-being of employees and the company. To point out other view points. That helped the conversation to not go negative.
You did great! My husband had an exit interview about 6 years ago now. An 80 million dollar company and he was in upper management. Morale was at 0 because of what this company was doing. So in his interview he did that. For everyone else that was staying, and future employees. He wrote out a well thought out list of issues. It was top notch, to try and help. He was met with a shameful display of kindergarten behavior from the OWNER. He left dumbfounded. It took about 6 months for him to decompress. A mass exodus followed. Not one employee (that voiced these issues to my husband previously) had the balls to speak the truth in their exit interview. They all kissed ass. My husband just shook his head. He said by the time they leave they don’t care anymore -they just want out. 😞
I’ve come to the conclusion that some of us are fighting harder in this war than others. Some are not fighting at all. Some refuse to believe we are at war. And some just don’t care.
That was the perfect approach. He was far more likely to listen to what you had to say that way, rather than if you had gone on an angry rant, however justifiable.
As a 55 year resident of Las Vegas, I was awed by nature when I first moved here. Close by for family time; Red Rock Canyon and Spring Mountain Ranch, Mt Charleston with fresh snow, the top of Boulder Dam so you can really see why we’re running out of water. As you land, look out the window on final approach to see the lake bottom….and the politicians are approving unlimited growth. I’ve lost my little oasis in the desert.
But the lights are amazing, especially if viewed from a distance at night.
Hi Helen! I'm a 30 yr resident of LV and I use that lake every summer. So sad to see when Boulder Harbor dried up. It's now filling again, but NPS has no plans to re-open.
That is awesome!! Good for you for saying what needed to be said! I know you’ve said you were looking forward to retiring soon and I am so happy you are finally free of these woke numbskulls! Congrats on moving into a new phase of your life, best wishes to you!!
Best wishes, and happy to hear that you have entered the world of freedom! Kind of close to you, here in Montco. Chose not to attend a funeral in Wayne on Saturday because (given the vax attitude of family involved) I didn't want to be surrounded by shedders. I have had two, perhaps three, unpleasant "experiences" following contact with vaxxees.
I attended a funeral and I had to suppress every urge to scream "It's the vaxx" that caused the death. I didn't but was exhausted by the lack of dot connecting by the family etc.
Hi Annie, Congratulations on the new chapter! We are in a similar position and are starting to look around. Do you mind if I ask why you settled on SC and the other places you considered? We will definitely be headed somewhere South! Thank you☺️🙏🏻
My son's college tennis team went to Hilton Head for spring break. We loved it. It was March 2020. All our friends were blowing up social media and calling us about covid. We said no-one cared here or certainly weren't freaking out. That stuck with us.
Yes. I left feeling good about my interview. I got it off my chest and hopefully helped others who cannot due to their circumstances. I did bring up Harvard dei debacle too.
Way to go! I am so happy for you. May blessings overflow to you and your new life. What a burden to have lifted from you. And how terrible that people see submission and conformation as the way forward. Different states 'feel' different. I have traveled through many these last 4 years and I know...where you choose to abide makes a huge difference in your life!♥
Lol, I remember how, in 2020 and 2021when my daughter came to visit us in Florida from nazi like NE, she would say that it felt like being back in normal America again.
Too firmly ldgd in he Pcific Northwest hese pas fifty years or s, I had nowhere ele to go, I did NOT go visit California, the Gabbling Nuisance made it clear I was PNG there. Fine. I live in a medium sized city on the I 5 corridor in Washington. The whole place was thgeoretically on lockdown, shot mandates not yet in place as the poke in the arm was ot yet "approved". I knew enough about the technology I had firmly determined I would absolutely NOT roll up MY sleeve. Knowing their worse-than-useless functionality i steadfastly refused to slap on a mug nappie. Went anywhere I wanted to, except for two small stores in town refused me enry without one. I had learned to play the "disability game" well enough. Different stores had different "magic words" to indicate "medical disability". So when (which was rare anyway) I got confronted by some harridan overworking her "assigned duties" to "protect me" I'd simly stand there and declare "I cannot wear a mask safely". Most would let me pass. One persisted... she asked me questions.. I knew she s=could not ask questions specifically about my "private condition", so I kept throwing synonymns at her until I hit on the magic one. Then the store was mine. What a sick joke!!! Proof the whole thing was naught but a charade anyway. Most of the time when I noticed I had picked up a "tail" I just ignored it. I KNEW they could not have me arrested.
Oregon was another matter. I got tossed out of my favourite le=arge grocery store when I steadfastly denied that I could wear that thing on my face. She got NAYASTEE at me. Funny thing, I was (as always) armed but did not want her to notice that fact, even though I was fully legal. Just did not want the ensuing legal attention. So I hopped in the car drove half a mile away and walked into a different not quite so preferred market. Got some harrassment from a dewwb in the check out line, but played dumb... he eventually gave up, failing to provoke me to counter him. His first line was that I NEEDed the "protection" to which I responded not really as I am taking other precautionary steps. He pressed, I said "priviledged personal information". He stomped off in an huff, failing to provoke me. I chuckled. Paid for my food and left.
The most fun I had, though, was when I was asked tocater the coffee service for a family of friends when one of their daughters was to be married. No church could host, lockdown and all. One if the brothers of the Bride (whom I have known since she was six months old) has a large home and grounds, with a covered pavillion large enough in case it rained (it did not...). The rub was that a Sargeant with the County Sheriff lived next door. My friend went and chatted him up, detaiing what was up. He said "I'm not gonna worry about what YOU do in YOUR ground. I trust you. And in case anyone else calls in to our County department policy on ALL covid related issues is this: we are a LAW ENFORCEMENT agency, those rules are a HEALTH department matter. So we tell complainers to call their Health Department, knowing they are far overloaded and will no return calls especially on weekends.
SO we had a fine day, over 350 people all day long, amazing food and a sweet time. I had asked for a list of the countries where family members had served in missions, and so had eight different coffees on the bar all day, from those countries, all hand roasted and hand brewed: India, Ethiopia, Uganda, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico and we ALL lef behind the entire covidiocy for the whole day. That crowd managed to consume about twelve pounds of coffee through the day.
We came down in 2020 and started calling it Free America here. It was a super eerie experience driving through all the states that November and seeing how each one handled the narrative scamdemic. Out of them all, New Mexico, Arizona and Oregon were the worst.
I was surprised. The interview went on for 1.5 hours. The HR guy said at the end he wished we has spoken before. This was only the 2nd time. He said I was interesting and had a lot of well thought out points. I laughed a little to end it on a lighter note and said is that HR code for I am opinionated? Lol.😄 I took his response to my comments as not everyone in the company agrees with what is going on. So good. Hope I gave some ammo.
I was a Sales-Manager responsible for the P&L in 4 States — I could see the writing on the wall with regard to the coming “Mandates” so I hung up my cleats in April of 2020. In mid 2021, I was invited to a weekend getaway with co-workers (I worked at the same company for 32 years) then promptly ‘un-invited’ after it was discovered that I “passed the IQ test” (wasn’t vaccinated). The brutal irony = the one’s who revoked my invitation status showed up to the getaway weekend WITH the COVID’s and shoved that nasty Spike-Protein down the throats of everyone in attendance. I still LOL every time I think about that — 😂
I actually went to a lovely bed and breakfast in Beaufort South Carolina in April of 2021, and when we had a happy hour on the front deck, and I announced I wasn't vaccinated, one of the guests started screaming at me. I laughed at her but it was sad to see. Wonder how she's doing now....
Annie, I’m pretty sure the conversation wouldn’t have gone so well if you’d spoken up prior to leaving. Mr. HR may have let his guard down because you were leaving. But all employees need to understand that no matter what rainbows and unicorns talk they spew, HR works for the company, not the workers.
If you subscribe to the Hemispheric notion of cognition, many of the HR folks I've encountered are left hemispheric oriented. The job in a way demands it. They have a list of rules and run through those rules, and can't/won't make exceptions. I've never met an HR person that could tolerate someone being a bit ungovernable.
I detest HR droids, and I can spot them a mile away. They're the backstabbers of the world. A former HR woman that I know has REALLY good seats to PADRES baseball games, and wants me to go with her, but. . . Eee, I don't know if I can stand her Pollyanna fakeness.
I was so proud when I made it through all those pages. He is now touring, talking to young people about returning to the sacred. He'll be at Hillsdale, then at Ralston in Savannah. There are a lot of less formidable youtube videos in which he speaks on his ideas. He's a Daoist, but loves Christianity. Conservative Woman is reporting that people are flooding the Orthodox churches in Great Britain and abandoning the Church of England, which has fallen to DEI and CRT and climate cultism and pride. That archbishop Justin Welby, to me, is an argument for the existence of demonic possession. He makes the hairs on the back of my neck go rigid, spidey senses kick in big time.
Most HR people think they are above the rules, but it is hilarious when they are canned and find they aren't so invincible after all. They cry like babies!
Agree 💯. When I spoke up at least a year ago regarding the vaxx, I knew I might get canned. But I was lucky as I didn't need the job. The company had only a 60% compliance rate with the vaxx. They were having a hard enough time hiring.
Yes, my thought when the HR guy said he wished we had spoken before made me wonder whether he wished he knew where Annie stood prior to her leaving so they could find a way to get rid of her.
Oh they knew my opinion at least on the scamdemic. I already vented to HR regarding how they handled the treatment of unvaxxers. I also let them know I printed out nearly all their emails regarding covid to show people the nasty tone. Even vaxxed people were shocked. They knew. Till the end I stood proudly as "the elephant " 🐘 in the room.
Yep. The government is immune. The Rx companies are immune. The useful idiot co's who implemented their death policies for them? Not immune. "Were you - or someone you love - harmed or killed by an employer-mandated covid-19 'vaccine' policy? Call 1-800-TOLDUSO to get the justice you deserve."
I agree with you Annie. I expect his response to your comments was agreed with you but he was not brave enough to speak out. Most people need their job and are scared of losing it considering the chaos that has gone on the last 4 years.
VERY good point about MLK Jr. I bring up this point on social media.
All that he was and all that he said seems to be deliberately ignored these days because it does not fit into the agenda.
He believed in God.
He was religious and spiritual.
He emphasized character.
Think about it..character as something to aspire to is not something anyone speaks about anymore.
'Character' (aka: good reputation) and the desire to be known for that, is what made Americans exceptional at one time.
In the 90s, moral relativity became a thing, and now immorality is fine, unethical behavior is fine, disobeying the law for some segments of society is fine, making money in what was once considered unacceptable ways, (drug dealing, stealing, online pornography, sex acting and posing, etc) is now fine.
Everything which doesn't show character is just fine! Just ask any Democrat! 😉
I remember when Clinton was running for re-election and we had the scandal of the week. Someone came up with the catch phrase Character Doesnt Count and now I can’t unsee that in our three branches of government.
Stoicism is all about developing your character. A lot of Stoicism sounds very Christian, and it does seem to have been a strong influence on the early church.
Me, neither. There’s no such thing. I keep telling people, ‘do you ever wonder why you never, ever, before now, have been worried about a (so-called) ‘pandemic’, or about any type of virus? Or masking, which shots someone has gotten, breathing the air around others, etc.? It’s all marketing/propaganda! I wish more folks would wake up. Fear sure is a powerful tool. Once one lets go of the fear, everything becomes clear.
Good for you Annie! Congratulations and here's a little song from South Carolina's own Marshall Tucker Band. Enjoy your retirement and the sunsets! https://youtu.be/qUySqfbB-MA?si=fqmY7lZCaY4R-sds
About 10 years ago (or less) citizens proposed that we start our own “cable” service like its own utility. When I call I talk to someone in my town. Wow! The cable companies fought and whined and there were miraculous price drops. Concast service was horrible and expensive I got 1GB internet now for $50/month. Price never changes. I hooked up my TV antenna if I want to watch football but it’s rarely ever on.
Nikki Haley is crowing about her DC win. Well, congratulations, Nikki. The most corrupt and braindead people in the country chose YOU!
In other Nikki news and in the spirit of "don't bite the hand that feeds you," bought- and -paid- for- by- the- Left Haley has just taken a steaming dump on the Republican party by saying she is renouncing the RNC pledge. She is a player for the Democrats, through and through. She is much of a Republican as Elizabeth Warren is an Indian.
Waiting waiting, waiting for the SC announcement at 10.
Because you hurt the feelings of Queen Nancy, according with your assertion she was the most crooked after Diana Queen of California pass away, but bottom line the truth is they are the same demonrats.
I heard this morning on a radio show that I listen to that Haley is not bowing out because the democrats who funded her want her to stay in and bad-mouth Trump!
The mean tweet excuse is one of the stupidest, most baseless and most vapid excuses ever not to vote for Trump. The way Haley and Biden among others have talked about and treated other people is 1000 times worse than anything Trump has ever said or done. It’s an excuse as fake as Haley and Biden are.
My ordinarily intelligent cousin didn’t vote for Trump on account of his rude tactics and mean tweets.
It was a tough thing for me to get over. I finally
got over it. Then she got all the jabs and when I got covid said it was bc I didn’t get the jabs. Then she got covid. Her entire jabbed fam—along with her, and of COURSE, she said the proverbial, “But it would’ve been SO MUCH WORSE …” so now I’m back to being wholly irritated with her.
When these types watch the legacy media daily like ABC world news tonight; they get so easily brainwashed to hate Trump. I actually watch that program every single evening just as research to understand what they are brainwashing currently. I record and watch later but I never miss it, sorry to give them ratings but it helps me understand the world since I avoid all other left owned media at all costs. Also I don’t mind David Muir, he’s very pleasant to listen to so I can tolerate it in the name of greater awareness in what my dad thinks and is going to say. My dad buys it all; hook line and sinker. He parrots it too a T.
One Relative, knowing I'm conservative, asked me how I could support Trump based on how evil he was. I asked them to describe his evil acts. They couldn't, and this person has a master's degree. I said 'no worries that you can't bring it to mind, go research and get back to me. I'm really curious what evil he is fomenting. I'm open to hearing about it.' I never heard back.
Before ending the conversation, I said 'I don't love Trump's fits of hubris, but I'll bet he wouldn't like my pathetic self-righteousness.' In the end , we do have to put a human being in office.
My dad, much the same. He passed away before Obama could fundamentally transform what Dad's Greatest Generation built, but he was already in the habit of saying to me, "This country's gone, son." Ominous words. Maybe we've seen the worst now. Hopes, prayers, and action!
My dad is like this too. But day I was visiting him in CA and it was on MSNBC and he was like oh great, I guess you guys are going to tell us what to think now.
I did that with my mom but it was FOX that she watched. It didn't take long before I started to consider there had to be another side the the mainstream narrative. I wish she had lived to experience my conversion.
It is true that the Cretin Rat element have taken our decency and weaponized it against us. Truly ... we have to get over that and fight steel against steel ... and win. And there is no substitute for winning.
Mine was a brother who completely lost his mind with TDS. He was estranged from family and friends, got fired, and died three months ago, a broken shell of a human being. One of the saddest things I've ever seen. He was 67.
TDS is amazingly destructive. Glenn Beck is the only person I’ve seen recover, but he apparently had a spiritual awakening following a complete nervous breakdown.
Yesterday, someone recommended the movie about demonic possession that Beck was involved with. It’s called ‘Nefarious’, is extremely well done and life changing. We wonder how some can possibly do the evil things they do. This answers.
I’m glad I didn’t know Beck was involved, since I can’t lose the mental picture of his face encrusted in Cheetos back in 2016 and might have avoided it.
He seems to have recovered, which is pretty miraculous.
Anyway, Prime has ‘Nefarious’ now and it is an astounding vehicle for Truth.
Nefarious was riveting. I didn't know Beck was involved. I dropped him back in the Tea Party days, when he and Hannity hijacked a broad, peaceful coalition and ran it aground. The Cheetos stunt was just confirmation. Maybe Glenn Beck has turned himself around; I hope so. But he's still a long way from earning my trust.
Why do people always get caught up in words instead of using actions as their guide? It's bothered me my entire life. It makes no sense. We even have a saying "actions speak louder than words." And yet, people get hung up on words nearly every time.
Agree!!! I keep saying that about the Democrats. People I know who vote Democrat always seem to uncritically swallow whatever the democrat politicians say, and pay zero attention to what they actually DO 😕
Oh, without a doubt. Dem voters were told in school, usually college, that Dems are good, antiwar, not racists, pro-women, "on the right side of history," and so on; and that Rs are warmongering, racist, misogynists (even the women), who just want to take everyone's money. And they uncritically, unthinkingly believe it. The recent attacks on women via the trans agenda and the attacks on free speech have finally woken some up.
Republican voters are a bit more split in that regard, IME. Some of the country club types vote (R) reflexively. IME, Trump voters are actually the most engaged and informed. They've been burnt so many times by both parties that they have a healthy (sometimes excessive) skepticism. One of the many little things that opened my eyes. A process that continues daily, lol. So many many things we have been told that don't align with what is real or true.
I get what you mean but it does seem that TDS boils down to just blind hatred of the persona presented by the media as being “mean”, “childish” and “lacking civility” and nothing else 😕
I view Trump’s use of ‘mean’ tweets and perfectly descriptive nicknames as a shortcut to explaining the deep state cesspool and its inhabitants and the dangers they represent. Time is of the essence and people want to play nicety nice with demonic beings?
But they have the media to cover for them! If Trump looks sideways they are standing ready to report that he is thinking about a man tweet. And the others can lie, smear, and bully with no repercussions at all!!! You can hear that all day long on all the liberal stations!!!
And not only is Biden’s apparent belittling of half the country’s citizens, the phrases he uses are carefully considered to enable DOJ-FBI to turn Patriot Act tools against those same citizens. So the insults are more than insults, they’re tools.
This has always bugged me so much too. Like Biden Hillary and others have any room to talk. Most of the people that were that over the top upset over his tweets and comments are not that nice themselves.
I went to our county's caucus in MO on Saturday. I am in one of the only 3 blue counties in the state, so halfway expected a big Haley contingent to show up, especially since our state so far does not require party registration (so D's vote for weak R's in the primary), but we are working on that. Trump had 558 votes to Haley's 65. Friends in adjacent red counties reported even larger margins of victory. Interestingly, the Haley voters were nearly all congregated together, and I didn't recognize a single one of them, which I suppose is not remarkable in a county with over 700K people, but I did know or recognize about half of the Trump crowd.
I'll concur with another datapoint, but in an affulent Michigan county semi-recently turned blue.
For a congressional district that encompasses of most of that county, the open primary last week ended up 61%-34% (Trump over Haley). But at the GOP state convention, where it was only GOP precinct delegates voting, it was 118-3 (aka 97.5% Trump). This pattern actually played out in all 13 CDs earning DT all 39 delegates available.
Our state convention is not until May 4 but expect similar results. My hubby is a sales rep and covers half the state. Says most of his territory the Trump signs never came down, and they are multiplying. Our county actually has 2 election boards - Kansas City and then Jackson County for the rest. KC is solid blue and eastern Jack is purplish red, but KC's overwhelming blue majority cancels Eastern Jack in nearly every election, even though Eastern Jack turnout is always higher (56% vs 38% in 2022)
Donna, I was at our county’s GOP caucus (Cass) on Sat. and you had to declare your party and show voter ID and drivers license to get in. It was a landslide and Trump won on the first vote. There were 12 Haley supporters and well over 650+ Trump supporters! One Haley supporter defected to President Trump after the first round. Then we voted on amendments to the 2024 MO.GOP draft platform and the amendments are amazing, including amendments having to do with health care freedom, spending and debt, educating our children and election integrity. It was a wonderful uplifting day!
Ours as well! We had lots of great amendments and speeches for (and against for a couple of them). I had never been to a caucus and had no idea what to expect, but really enjoyed it even though I was STARVING - as I got there at 8:30 and I didn't leave until almost 2:00. Ended at ~1:15 but I am a gabber. I had been warned to bring a snack, but left my bag of trail mix at home.
Yes you had to declare your party but for the overall voter base, party registration is still optional, I worked the primary in 2022, and we had to ask each voter which party ballot they wanted, regardless of what they were registered as or if they had even declared a party affiliation. (the option to affiliate was just added by the legislature in the 2022 session but didn't go into effect until after the 2022 elections.) Asking people if they wanted to declare a party when they voted started with the April 2023 elections (in my area anyway). Rep Dan Stacy has been fighting a multi-year battle to pass closed primaries, where you have to vote the party you are registered as, but it has failed to pass year after year. Not sure of the reason, other than the theory some have that there are some fake R's who like it this way? That, and the Senate fails to get much of anything done these past several years.
Senator Rick Brattin is amazing but there are a lot of RINOS in the MO. senate AND in the MO.House of Representatives, including my representative, Sherry Gallick. For anyone from MO. reading this comment, Diane Diehl, Jeff Farnan, Mike Haffner and Dave Hinman are RINOS too.
Add Mary Elizabeth Coleman to that list. She has her eye on running for Congress and led the effort to kill the landfill bill last session and looks like the monied class is working to defeat it again this session. (big PAC contributions to the climbers who are raising war chests for future runs) If you are not familiar, there is an effort to put a landfill in just north of the Cass/Jackson line. Homes/schools/churches and Longview Lake are all close by. Haffner has been a huge advocate for the bill that would enable surrounding municipalities to 'kill the fill' Current law says 'one half mile' but new legislation would make it one mile, allowing Lee's Summit, Grandview and Raymore to shut this down. There is a small patch of land along 150 where there are land acquisition efforts that is KCMO and while Mayor Q is playing dumb, he is not fighting it either. The proposed site is JUST under the half mile requirement. This has actually been a bipartisan fight. A woman who is a huge lib and a thorn in our side in local elections is big in this fight as her neighborhood is adjacent to this site. Proof politics does sometimes make for strange bedfellows.
Maybe we could carve out a section of the country where these people could live, on their own, happily ever after, with the Biden regime and their ilk , and their tens of millions of illegal aliens. Build a wall around them so they couldn't get out.
Tina is working hard to get even more of our money. I hope I read it wrong but isn’t she proposing an almost one dollar increase in gas taxes? .93 cents?
My son got chewed out by his teacher when he was in middle school during the 2016 election cycle because he defended Trump and she went on and on about how Trump mistreated women and was racist etc etc. I had words with the school leadership after that and the teacher stopped pushing her agenda but it still makes me mad.
Sooooo many "teachers" do this. She should haved thanked him for his opinion and then asked the class if anyone else had a comment. Or she could have given them a homework assignment, having them do a bit of research on the candidates and their platforms. All kinds of learning opportunities there! Instead she shut down the conversation, most likely embarrassed your son, and attempted to sway the opinions of the entire class. Terrible teacher.
I agree. I’m not necessarily against (age/maturity appropriate) discussions about politics or ideological ideas in the classroom. But the teacher MUST NOT EVER give any sign of his/her own opinions and must challenge all opinions and ideas equally. Make them think about why they think the way they do and have to support that with facts. That is actual teaching, not just indoctrination.
Have you seen what generation is teaching today? The brought up on woke ideology
rather than religious values, (not to mention the sickening monthly stories I see on Daily Mail of female teachers having had sex or sending sexual photos to their young male students.)
These are very troubled, morally bereft generations of young people. (anwhere from 22 years old to 45).
HOWEVER - I am seeing signs this is turning for the youngest of this cohort, and perhaps it is gen Y, depending on what the cutoff is. Our local Turning Point chapters are gathering steam. Went to the State GOP conference in early Feb and was amazed at the number of young people there. There is a young man in our area that hosts a podcast called The Alex Stone Show and his goal is to convert his generation to conservatism, and has scored some great national interviews.
That would make me mad too. Good job speaking up and getting her to stop. I heard from my old friends that the public schools in deep red suburbs in missouri even play CNN on tvs in the classrooms, all day, clearly to brainwash the students and push an agenda. I don't have kids that age but I find it strange they have tvs on in classrooms. i guess they are quite determined to get these kids brainwashed.
Yes I’ve heard that too. My kids used to go to a smaller private school so at least we had some sway. I can’t imagine the public school would listen and act unless they were forced to somehow.
Years ago there was what was called Channel One. The benevolent company offered free TV’s for classroom use. Only requirement was mandatory watching the 10 minute Channel One “news” each morning. It consisted of CNN leftist slant of “news” deemed worthy.
A friend learned about it when her elementary-age child came home asking about something called masturbation.
Yep, coverage of Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders’ views of comprehensive sex-ed in schools etc. President Clinton fired her.
But what my friend learned that day started an investigation of Channel One & its motives.
Many school systems divested themselves from it after learning such tidbits as features on rocker Marilyn Mason & other inappropriate materials.
Most Public Schools still undermine parents who are trying their best to raise their children according to the values & standards they believe in.
I've always thought the uproar over "mean tweets" was completely overblown. 🙄 They'd rather see the country burn down than anyone's feelings get bruised.
And actually often out in the open too. Joe Biden has been mean, nasty and condescending on many occasions, and people just laugh it off when he does it.
Exactly! He's so much worse. Yelling at the podium like he did that time? He looked like an unhinged lunatic. Trump has never done anything of the sort. Biden is an out and out racist - he has said hideous things and gotten away with it. I think any leftist who defends him must ultimately agree with him (secretly).
I know, it's crazy. If they actually want to get into it with me - I never start these things because it's pointless, but if they ask, I always pose this question. If you needed a life saving operation and one doctor is basically a butcher with a consoling bedside manner, and the other doctor is Dr. Awkward No Filter, but is the best damn surgeon on the planet with a 98% success rate, who are you going to pick? I then tell them I vote on policy, not personality and they need to look at the total picture, not just one issue.
Around me (blue state), there are quite a few Haley and Vivek signs up. No Biden or Trump. Trump is going to win the nomination. Biden is a senile, corrupt pedophile who's tanked the economy and the country. I just think to myself...this really isn't a difficult choice...these ppl need to grow the eff up and stop it with the 'mean tweets' crap. It's not a valid opinion.
He's just using plain language b/c that's what appeals to his voters. And you know what? They're right. It's the language of the white collar, professional, "expert" class that got us into all these messes we're now dealing with. For example: It's easy to vote for "social safety net policies"; Not as easy to vote for "we're going to take your money, skim some off the top for ourselves, and give the rest to people who vote for us."
They don’t care about her stances, only that omb. And they will proudly wear that stupid tee shirt to the grave. And regardless the education they lack, they would never let it get to the point where they change their mind.
She's running a great campaign, she's been a loyal ambassador, cabinet member, wife and mother, she's just an outlet for back-stabbing anti-Maga voters
She hasn't been all that loyal of a wife and she's sticking her thumb in the eye of conservative voters. After everything that's been done to Trump, it's been very revealing to see clowns like Haley go out there and show support for tyranny. There's reason for MAGA to stab her, no back required. Facing forward would suit me fine. She's a traitor.
( i threw the loyalty thing in there for effect); wouldn't it be great if she was actually a MAGA plant who sallies forth from the RNC in July to harness the anti-Trumpers and touts him as being America's Last and Only chance to save us from Commie-Progressive-Tyranny? This truly is the case, and her future and legacy hinges on it; Lapdog Leftist on a leash who tacitly approves of National destruction, or join the Save America-Save Freedom Movement side of the ledger...there is SOON to be NO MIDDLE GROUND on this.
The Repub party is dirty dirty dirty and the party is still going on an on and on. The door is wide open and the sewer has been backed up for DECADES! It will have to be burned down. But there are far too many who like what happens there win or loose.
Totally agree. This 2-party uniparty scam has to END. It's been going on since the last war of the USG against the American people...Lincoln's war.
If the Democrats lose the 2024 race and then all the truth about the bio-weapon death shot comes out and all the voters wake up and realize that they are the walking dead because the shot was pushed on them, I fully expect the Democratic Party to disappear. They will have been gutted of all legitimacy in the voters' eyes.
It would take an outright collapse. I say outright because an engineered controlled collapse in a Pivot bid bait and switch to a 'new' monetary system does not count. With that we get new painted ponies. But turn on the garden hose and the new colors wash off. And then if one cares to see ... the same ponies as always.
My understanding is that there is a banking crisis starting now which the public won't see for 3 or more months.
I agree with your logic. IF Trump is the Apex Money's choice, and I see every reason why then need to walk back some of the bad policies that are threatening their banking system, that sets up a VERY interesting conflict between them and the Marxists who captured the USG.
That's not an impossibility. We don't want a martyr, but we need a strong and conservative VP. Unfortunately, Trump may need a squish VP to draw the squish vote.
I retired March 1st. We are moving from woke normie chester county pa to SC. My husband and I could not stand living in an area of woke, vaxxed non-critical thinkers any longer. I also could see the side effects of the vaxx accelerating. So much illness etc. My exit interview I gave my criticism of the company's dei program. I used many links brought up through our C&C discussions. I said they had to stop celebrating MLK Jr day because he wanted a society where people weren't judged by superficial like race but on character. They were shocked. I gave another criticism regarding their handling of the scamdemic. Yes. I said scamdemic. Most of their policies have been debunked as total BS. I said while big pharma has legal immunity, they do not. I said I had no intention of litigation. I only wanted to point out, for the good of current and future employees and the company. So these falsehoods and policies won't happen again. I finally added I spoke up because I can. Many can't or hesitate because they are afraid of losing their jobs. Interesting exit interview.
@Annie I bet you gave the “legal types” quite a lot to consider! Way to go 👊🏼 And congrats on your retirement! 🍾 May your new home and season bring you many years of joy and happiness 🙏🏻
Thank you. My husband and I already feel rejuvenated. 😄
Congratulations 🤗
Oooo. I would have LOVED to be a fly on the wall. 👏
Ditto! 🙂
Me too!👍👍🥰
ditto on the blessing! Enjoy this time in your life!!
Bravo! I wish I could have seen their shocked, self righteous faces. Blessings on you for speaking up. Have a wonderful retirement in SC. We are also in wokeland. Pondering our retirement choices as well. Family might keep us here but we are with you in spirit believe me.
Thank you. 🥰
I was watching Biden walk through the grass on Fox to get onboard the helicopter. I was focused on his feet to see how he was walking, when he exited the tall grass it looked like his shoes had flaps or wings on them, down by the souls.
Training wheels
Telltale sign of his affliction
Stabilizers, like ships use in choppy waters.😁
Funny you mention that. In the video of him shuffling along at his border visit, I pointed out to my husband that it looked like his feet were bent out to the sides. Reminded me of my feet in ice skates as a young child, splayed out at the ankles.
You are a rock star!!! Way to go!! 👏
I only wish more people had the courage you showed - even on their way out. Believe it or not most people, on their way out, will still kiss ass instead of speak the truth because they just don’t care by that point. It’s a shame. Standing ovation for you!
Thank you. I tried to frame it as concern for the well-being of employees and the company. To point out other view points. That helped the conversation to not go negative.
You did great! My husband had an exit interview about 6 years ago now. An 80 million dollar company and he was in upper management. Morale was at 0 because of what this company was doing. So in his interview he did that. For everyone else that was staying, and future employees. He wrote out a well thought out list of issues. It was top notch, to try and help. He was met with a shameful display of kindergarten behavior from the OWNER. He left dumbfounded. It took about 6 months for him to decompress. A mass exodus followed. Not one employee (that voiced these issues to my husband previously) had the balls to speak the truth in their exit interview. They all kissed ass. My husband just shook his head. He said by the time they leave they don’t care anymore -they just want out. 😞
Each of us has to take a stand when they can. That's all you can do. Kudos to your husband. 👏👏
I’ve come to the conclusion that some of us are fighting harder in this war than others. Some are not fighting at all. Some refuse to believe we are at war. And some just don’t care.
20/80...always the case in EVERY endeavor. 20% of the people do 80% of the work.
True. But I want to be with the 20%. We are more fun and interesting. 😉
Some let everyone else do all the fighting for them 😑
The 80/20 rule applies in this struggle, just as it does almost everywhere groups of people work under one roof.
That was the perfect approach. He was far more likely to listen to what you had to say that way, rather than if you had gone on an angry rant, however justifiable.
flies and honey and vinegar once again
Yes. There are occasions when more abrasive tactics need to be used but many times it’s better to be “sweet” about it.
As a 55 year resident of Las Vegas, I was awed by nature when I first moved here. Close by for family time; Red Rock Canyon and Spring Mountain Ranch, Mt Charleston with fresh snow, the top of Boulder Dam so you can really see why we’re running out of water. As you land, look out the window on final approach to see the lake bottom….and the politicians are approving unlimited growth. I’ve lost my little oasis in the desert.
But the lights are amazing, especially if viewed from a distance at night.
Hi Helen! I'm a 30 yr resident of LV and I use that lake every summer. So sad to see when Boulder Harbor dried up. It's now filling again, but NPS has no plans to re-open.
That is awesome!! Good for you for saying what needed to be said! I know you’ve said you were looking forward to retiring soon and I am so happy you are finally free of these woke numbskulls! Congrats on moving into a new phase of your life, best wishes to you!!
Thank you. 🥰
Best wishes, and happy to hear that you have entered the world of freedom! Kind of close to you, here in Montco. Chose not to attend a funeral in Wayne on Saturday because (given the vax attitude of family involved) I didn't want to be surrounded by shedders. I have had two, perhaps three, unpleasant "experiences" following contact with vaxxees.
I attended a funeral and I had to suppress every urge to scream "It's the vaxx" that caused the death. I didn't but was exhausted by the lack of dot connecting by the family etc.
I've been to a couple of those funerals.
Had the decedent not been 96 at death, I would have been sure of it. Probably was the reason anyway.
Some people can never be reached, especially when it relates to a loved one who has died. It's too late at that point to convince anyone.
Hi Annie, Congratulations on the new chapter! We are in a similar position and are starting to look around. Do you mind if I ask why you settled on SC and the other places you considered? We will definitely be headed somewhere South! Thank you☺️🙏🏻
My son's college tennis team went to Hilton Head for spring break. We loved it. It was March 2020. All our friends were blowing up social media and calling us about covid. We said no-one cared here or certainly weren't freaking out. That stuck with us.
I love it! Did you get any reply other than incoherent mumbling or a deer in the headlights look?
Yes. I left feeling good about my interview. I got it off my chest and hopefully helped others who cannot due to their circumstances. I did bring up Harvard dei debacle too.
🙏❤️
Way to go! I am so happy for you. May blessings overflow to you and your new life. What a burden to have lifted from you. And how terrible that people see submission and conformation as the way forward. Different states 'feel' different. I have traveled through many these last 4 years and I know...where you choose to abide makes a huge difference in your life!♥
Lol, I remember how, in 2020 and 2021when my daughter came to visit us in Florida from nazi like NE, she would say that it felt like being back in normal America again.
Too firmly ldgd in he Pcific Northwest hese pas fifty years or s, I had nowhere ele to go, I did NOT go visit California, the Gabbling Nuisance made it clear I was PNG there. Fine. I live in a medium sized city on the I 5 corridor in Washington. The whole place was thgeoretically on lockdown, shot mandates not yet in place as the poke in the arm was ot yet "approved". I knew enough about the technology I had firmly determined I would absolutely NOT roll up MY sleeve. Knowing their worse-than-useless functionality i steadfastly refused to slap on a mug nappie. Went anywhere I wanted to, except for two small stores in town refused me enry without one. I had learned to play the "disability game" well enough. Different stores had different "magic words" to indicate "medical disability". So when (which was rare anyway) I got confronted by some harridan overworking her "assigned duties" to "protect me" I'd simly stand there and declare "I cannot wear a mask safely". Most would let me pass. One persisted... she asked me questions.. I knew she s=could not ask questions specifically about my "private condition", so I kept throwing synonymns at her until I hit on the magic one. Then the store was mine. What a sick joke!!! Proof the whole thing was naught but a charade anyway. Most of the time when I noticed I had picked up a "tail" I just ignored it. I KNEW they could not have me arrested.
Oregon was another matter. I got tossed out of my favourite le=arge grocery store when I steadfastly denied that I could wear that thing on my face. She got NAYASTEE at me. Funny thing, I was (as always) armed but did not want her to notice that fact, even though I was fully legal. Just did not want the ensuing legal attention. So I hopped in the car drove half a mile away and walked into a different not quite so preferred market. Got some harrassment from a dewwb in the check out line, but played dumb... he eventually gave up, failing to provoke me to counter him. His first line was that I NEEDed the "protection" to which I responded not really as I am taking other precautionary steps. He pressed, I said "priviledged personal information". He stomped off in an huff, failing to provoke me. I chuckled. Paid for my food and left.
The most fun I had, though, was when I was asked tocater the coffee service for a family of friends when one of their daughters was to be married. No church could host, lockdown and all. One if the brothers of the Bride (whom I have known since she was six months old) has a large home and grounds, with a covered pavillion large enough in case it rained (it did not...). The rub was that a Sargeant with the County Sheriff lived next door. My friend went and chatted him up, detaiing what was up. He said "I'm not gonna worry about what YOU do in YOUR ground. I trust you. And in case anyone else calls in to our County department policy on ALL covid related issues is this: we are a LAW ENFORCEMENT agency, those rules are a HEALTH department matter. So we tell complainers to call their Health Department, knowing they are far overloaded and will no return calls especially on weekends.
SO we had a fine day, over 350 people all day long, amazing food and a sweet time. I had asked for a list of the countries where family members had served in missions, and so had eight different coffees on the bar all day, from those countries, all hand roasted and hand brewed: India, Ethiopia, Uganda, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico and we ALL lef behind the entire covidiocy for the whole day. That crowd managed to consume about twelve pounds of coffee through the day.
Covid? What's THAT?
We came down in 2020 and started calling it Free America here. It was a super eerie experience driving through all the states that November and seeing how each one handled the narrative scamdemic. Out of them all, New Mexico, Arizona and Oregon were the worst.
An Cf loses down their beaches and skate parks - even if you were alone
Kudos! And thank you! Oh I bet that felt so good! A feeling you can have & savor the rest of your life! Well wishes for your next chapter!
Thank you for speaking up!
👏👏👏
Did they care what you said? Or did they just chalk it up to being a conspiracy theorist?
I was surprised. The interview went on for 1.5 hours. The HR guy said at the end he wished we has spoken before. This was only the 2nd time. He said I was interesting and had a lot of well thought out points. I laughed a little to end it on a lighter note and said is that HR code for I am opinionated? Lol.😄 I took his response to my comments as not everyone in the company agrees with what is going on. So good. Hope I gave some ammo.
I was a Sales-Manager responsible for the P&L in 4 States — I could see the writing on the wall with regard to the coming “Mandates” so I hung up my cleats in April of 2020. In mid 2021, I was invited to a weekend getaway with co-workers (I worked at the same company for 32 years) then promptly ‘un-invited’ after it was discovered that I “passed the IQ test” (wasn’t vaccinated). The brutal irony = the one’s who revoked my invitation status showed up to the getaway weekend WITH the COVID’s and shoved that nasty Spike-Protein down the throats of everyone in attendance. I still LOL every time I think about that — 😂
I actually went to a lovely bed and breakfast in Beaufort South Carolina in April of 2021, and when we had a happy hour on the front deck, and I announced I wasn't vaccinated, one of the guests started screaming at me. I laughed at her but it was sad to see. Wonder how she's doing now....
You did note that the town's name is pronounced "BEW-fort", and not "Bo-fort".
😂😂😂
I love when the vaxxholes get their crap thrown back in their faces. 😄
Annie, I’m pretty sure the conversation wouldn’t have gone so well if you’d spoken up prior to leaving. Mr. HR may have let his guard down because you were leaving. But all employees need to understand that no matter what rainbows and unicorns talk they spew, HR works for the company, not the workers.
If you subscribe to the Hemispheric notion of cognition, many of the HR folks I've encountered are left hemispheric oriented. The job in a way demands it. They have a list of rules and run through those rules, and can't/won't make exceptions. I've never met an HR person that could tolerate someone being a bit ungovernable.
I detest HR droids, and I can spot them a mile away. They're the backstabbers of the world. A former HR woman that I know has REALLY good seats to PADRES baseball games, and wants me to go with her, but. . . Eee, I don't know if I can stand her Pollyanna fakeness.
Ian McGilchrist? "The Matter with Things" is a slog but worth it if you have the time.
I was so proud when I made it through all those pages. He is now touring, talking to young people about returning to the sacred. He'll be at Hillsdale, then at Ralston in Savannah. There are a lot of less formidable youtube videos in which he speaks on his ideas. He's a Daoist, but loves Christianity. Conservative Woman is reporting that people are flooding the Orthodox churches in Great Britain and abandoning the Church of England, which has fallen to DEI and CRT and climate cultism and pride. That archbishop Justin Welby, to me, is an argument for the existence of demonic possession. He makes the hairs on the back of my neck go rigid, spidey senses kick in big time.
Most HR people think they are above the rules, but it is hilarious when they are canned and find they aren't so invincible after all. They cry like babies!
Agree 💯. When I spoke up at least a year ago regarding the vaxx, I knew I might get canned. But I was lucky as I didn't need the job. The company had only a 60% compliance rate with the vaxx. They were having a hard enough time hiring.
Yup I agree with your take.
He “wished” but I’m sure previously never gave any encouragement to anyone to do so 😕
Yes, my thought when the HR guy said he wished we had spoken before made me wonder whether he wished he knew where Annie stood prior to her leaving so they could find a way to get rid of her.
Oh they knew my opinion at least on the scamdemic. I already vented to HR regarding how they handled the treatment of unvaxxers. I also let them know I printed out nearly all their emails regarding covid to show people the nasty tone. Even vaxxed people were shocked. They knew. Till the end I stood proudly as "the elephant " 🐘 in the room.
Good for you! I wish you all the best in your move!
Or just CYA because they’re starting to panic a little.
Yep. The government is immune. The Rx companies are immune. The useful idiot co's who implemented their death policies for them? Not immune. "Were you - or someone you love - harmed or killed by an employer-mandated covid-19 'vaccine' policy? Call 1-800-TOLDUSO to get the justice you deserve."
I agree with you Annie. I expect his response to your comments was agreed with you but he was not brave enough to speak out. Most people need their job and are scared of losing it considering the chaos that has gone on the last 4 years.
Way to go on your exit interview!!!
VERY good point about MLK Jr. I bring up this point on social media.
All that he was and all that he said seems to be deliberately ignored these days because it does not fit into the agenda.
He believed in God.
He was religious and spiritual.
He emphasized character.
Think about it..character as something to aspire to is not something anyone speaks about anymore.
'Character' (aka: good reputation) and the desire to be known for that, is what made Americans exceptional at one time.
In the 90s, moral relativity became a thing, and now immorality is fine, unethical behavior is fine, disobeying the law for some segments of society is fine, making money in what was once considered unacceptable ways, (drug dealing, stealing, online pornography, sex acting and posing, etc) is now fine.
Everything which doesn't show character is just fine! Just ask any Democrat! 😉
I remember when Clinton was running for re-election and we had the scandal of the week. Someone came up with the catch phrase Character Doesnt Count and now I can’t unsee that in our three branches of government.
Yes, content of character is the proper measure of man (by which I mean all humans).
I really enjoyed Marcus Aurelius' "Meditations" and am now reading Seneca's letters:
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Moral_letters_to_Lucilius
Stoicism is all about developing your character. A lot of Stoicism sounds very Christian, and it does seem to have been a strong influence on the early church.
Bravo. I will NEVER use the word Pandemic
Me, neither. There’s no such thing. I keep telling people, ‘do you ever wonder why you never, ever, before now, have been worried about a (so-called) ‘pandemic’, or about any type of virus? Or masking, which shots someone has gotten, breathing the air around others, etc.? It’s all marketing/propaganda! I wish more folks would wake up. Fear sure is a powerful tool. Once one lets go of the fear, everything becomes clear.
PLANDEMIC
Good for you Annie! Congratulations and here's a little song from South Carolina's own Marshall Tucker Band. Enjoy your retirement and the sunsets! https://youtu.be/qUySqfbB-MA?si=fqmY7lZCaY4R-sds
Awesome…way to preach truth to power!
They’ll only learn if you litigate. It’s one form of protest. So is abstinence. Like paying for TV.
The best thing our town did was to create its own internet company.
BTW…happy retirement!
what town is this, with this kind of wisdom?
Longmont CO. We’re not all nuts out here. lol
https://mynextlight.com/
About 10 years ago (or less) citizens proposed that we start our own “cable” service like its own utility. When I call I talk to someone in my town. Wow! The cable companies fought and whined and there were miraculous price drops. Concast service was horrible and expensive I got 1GB internet now for $50/month. Price never changes. I hooked up my TV antenna if I want to watch football but it’s rarely ever on.
Happiest retirement Anne! Thanks for sharing!
Nikki Haley is crowing about her DC win. Well, congratulations, Nikki. The most corrupt and braindead people in the country chose YOU!
In other Nikki news and in the spirit of "don't bite the hand that feeds you," bought- and -paid- for- by- the- Left Haley has just taken a steaming dump on the Republican party by saying she is renouncing the RNC pledge. She is a player for the Democrats, through and through. She is much of a Republican as Elizabeth Warren is an Indian.
Waiting waiting, waiting for the SC announcement at 10.
TRUMP 2024!
As Trump said "She's queen of the swamp!" Lol. Hillary must be ticked as she's been dethroned. 😅
Well, I disagree with the statement.
Because you hurt the feelings of Queen Nancy, according with your assertion she was the most crooked after Diana Queen of California pass away, but bottom line the truth is they are the same demonrats.
Dethroned by someone that looks marginally better, too.
That covers 95% of the population. Lol. 😅
ONLY 95%?!
thank you ! I can look in the mirror and smile again !
True 🤣😆
True ... and this is despite Nikki having the physiognomy of a witch
No, no--you must be confusing her with Hochul.
Oh! Now there is one ugly it! Both inside and outside. Even the non-religious can see that is a demon at 20, or more, paces. 😖
Exactly.
and likes men...
And she's an anti-Russia freak, and anti-White: "Nikki Haley posted 9 times about Navalny’s death and 0 times about the murder of Laken Riley."
https://twitter.com/joma_gc/status/1763740296586670397
I heard this morning on a radio show that I listen to that Haley is not bowing out because the democrats who funded her want her to stay in and bad-mouth Trump!
I wouldn’t be surprised in the least.
I do believe that. The Never Trumpers will keep paying her.
I still run into people who prefer her due to Trump's mean tweets.
They have no idea of her horrible stances.
The mean tweet excuse is one of the stupidest, most baseless and most vapid excuses ever not to vote for Trump. The way Haley and Biden among others have talked about and treated other people is 1000 times worse than anything Trump has ever said or done. It’s an excuse as fake as Haley and Biden are.
My ordinarily intelligent cousin didn’t vote for Trump on account of his rude tactics and mean tweets.
It was a tough thing for me to get over. I finally
got over it. Then she got all the jabs and when I got covid said it was bc I didn’t get the jabs. Then she got covid. Her entire jabbed fam—along with her, and of COURSE, she said the proverbial, “But it would’ve been SO MUCH WORSE …” so now I’m back to being wholly irritated with her.
When these types watch the legacy media daily like ABC world news tonight; they get so easily brainwashed to hate Trump. I actually watch that program every single evening just as research to understand what they are brainwashing currently. I record and watch later but I never miss it, sorry to give them ratings but it helps me understand the world since I avoid all other left owned media at all costs. Also I don’t mind David Muir, he’s very pleasant to listen to so I can tolerate it in the name of greater awareness in what my dad thinks and is going to say. My dad buys it all; hook line and sinker. He parrots it too a T.
You are a very brave and loving person, sacrificing your time and sanity like this! ☺️😂 I could not do it.
Yes..sanity! Magnolia must be a very even tempered, objective human being to be able to do that.
One Relative, knowing I'm conservative, asked me how I could support Trump based on how evil he was. I asked them to describe his evil acts. They couldn't, and this person has a master's degree. I said 'no worries that you can't bring it to mind, go research and get back to me. I'm really curious what evil he is fomenting. I'm open to hearing about it.' I never heard back.
Before ending the conversation, I said 'I don't love Trump's fits of hubris, but I'll bet he wouldn't like my pathetic self-righteousness.' In the end , we do have to put a human being in office.
Wow! My dad is a news junkie but… he sits there and shakes his head the whole time! 77 yo
My dad, much the same. He passed away before Obama could fundamentally transform what Dad's Greatest Generation built, but he was already in the habit of saying to me, "This country's gone, son." Ominous words. Maybe we've seen the worst now. Hopes, prayers, and action!
My dad is like this too. But day I was visiting him in CA and it was on MSNBC and he was like oh great, I guess you guys are going to tell us what to think now.
I did that with my mom but it was FOX that she watched. It didn't take long before I started to consider there had to be another side the the mainstream narrative. I wish she had lived to experience my conversion.
Recording it is a good idea, in case you need to go throw up or punch a wall between stories 😂
As for David Muir, during Trump’s first term we started calling him David Manure.
Goodness…it’s like we have the same cousin 🤔😂
Yup..I have one too.
Maybe we're all related? 😂
It is true that the Cretin Rat element have taken our decency and weaponized it against us. Truly ... we have to get over that and fight steel against steel ... and win. And there is no substitute for winning.
Mine was a brother who completely lost his mind with TDS. He was estranged from family and friends, got fired, and died three months ago, a broken shell of a human being. One of the saddest things I've ever seen. He was 67.
TDS is amazingly destructive. Glenn Beck is the only person I’ve seen recover, but he apparently had a spiritual awakening following a complete nervous breakdown.
Yesterday, someone recommended the movie about demonic possession that Beck was involved with. It’s called ‘Nefarious’, is extremely well done and life changing. We wonder how some can possibly do the evil things they do. This answers.
I’m glad I didn’t know Beck was involved, since I can’t lose the mental picture of his face encrusted in Cheetos back in 2016 and might have avoided it.
He seems to have recovered, which is pretty miraculous.
Anyway, Prime has ‘Nefarious’ now and it is an astounding vehicle for Truth.
Nefarious WAS riveting. Chilling.
Nefarious was riveting. I didn't know Beck was involved. I dropped him back in the Tea Party days, when he and Hannity hijacked a broad, peaceful coalition and ran it aground. The Cheetos stunt was just confirmation. Maybe Glenn Beck has turned himself around; I hope so. But he's still a long way from earning my trust.
It was said here and I repeat, we must have the same cousin.
Southern gal, recently transplanted to that cesspool, Washington?
I blame the woke SWAMP THANGS for putting her in her trance.
Why do people always get caught up in words instead of using actions as their guide? It's bothered me my entire life. It makes no sense. We even have a saying "actions speak louder than words." And yet, people get hung up on words nearly every time.
Agree!!! I keep saying that about the Democrats. People I know who vote Democrat always seem to uncritically swallow whatever the democrat politicians say, and pay zero attention to what they actually DO 😕
Oh, without a doubt. Dem voters were told in school, usually college, that Dems are good, antiwar, not racists, pro-women, "on the right side of history," and so on; and that Rs are warmongering, racist, misogynists (even the women), who just want to take everyone's money. And they uncritically, unthinkingly believe it. The recent attacks on women via the trans agenda and the attacks on free speech have finally woken some up.
Republican voters are a bit more split in that regard, IME. Some of the country club types vote (R) reflexively. IME, Trump voters are actually the most engaged and informed. They've been burnt so many times by both parties that they have a healthy (sometimes excessive) skepticism. One of the many little things that opened my eyes. A process that continues daily, lol. So many many things we have been told that don't align with what is real or true.
Agree. Well said.
Besides most of our (conservative) tweets were banned and censored in 2020!!!
Agreed! However, I view blaming TDS on mean tweets is sort of a tongue-in-cheek shortcut to the ridiculousness of it all.
I get what you mean but it does seem that TDS boils down to just blind hatred of the persona presented by the media as being “mean”, “childish” and “lacking civility” and nothing else 😕
Thank you! You nailed it! 😁
Did that even make sense? 🤣😂 Gotta go brew a ☕️!
I view Trump’s use of ‘mean’ tweets and perfectly descriptive nicknames as a shortcut to explaining the deep state cesspool and its inhabitants and the dangers they represent. Time is of the essence and people want to play nicety nice with demonic beings?
Exactly!!
If we recall, those tweets were truth…
But they have the media to cover for them! If Trump looks sideways they are standing ready to report that he is thinking about a man tweet. And the others can lie, smear, and bully with no repercussions at all!!! You can hear that all day long on all the liberal stations!!!
And not only is Biden’s apparent belittling of half the country’s citizens, the phrases he uses are carefully considered to enable DOJ-FBI to turn Patriot Act tools against those same citizens. So the insults are more than insults, they’re tools.
I can only see that as a demonic delusion. Such people can not even point to an individual tweet.
This has always bugged me so much too. Like Biden Hillary and others have any room to talk. Most of the people that were that over the top upset over his tweets and comments are not that nice themselves.
Amen to that!
I went to our county's caucus in MO on Saturday. I am in one of the only 3 blue counties in the state, so halfway expected a big Haley contingent to show up, especially since our state so far does not require party registration (so D's vote for weak R's in the primary), but we are working on that. Trump had 558 votes to Haley's 65. Friends in adjacent red counties reported even larger margins of victory. Interestingly, the Haley voters were nearly all congregated together, and I didn't recognize a single one of them, which I suppose is not remarkable in a county with over 700K people, but I did know or recognize about half of the Trump crowd.
I'll concur with another datapoint, but in an affulent Michigan county semi-recently turned blue.
For a congressional district that encompasses of most of that county, the open primary last week ended up 61%-34% (Trump over Haley). But at the GOP state convention, where it was only GOP precinct delegates voting, it was 118-3 (aka 97.5% Trump). This pattern actually played out in all 13 CDs earning DT all 39 delegates available.
Our state convention is not until May 4 but expect similar results. My hubby is a sales rep and covers half the state. Says most of his territory the Trump signs never came down, and they are multiplying. Our county actually has 2 election boards - Kansas City and then Jackson County for the rest. KC is solid blue and eastern Jack is purplish red, but KC's overwhelming blue majority cancels Eastern Jack in nearly every election, even though Eastern Jack turnout is always higher (56% vs 38% in 2022)
Donna, I was at our county’s GOP caucus (Cass) on Sat. and you had to declare your party and show voter ID and drivers license to get in. It was a landslide and Trump won on the first vote. There were 12 Haley supporters and well over 650+ Trump supporters! One Haley supporter defected to President Trump after the first round. Then we voted on amendments to the 2024 MO.GOP draft platform and the amendments are amazing, including amendments having to do with health care freedom, spending and debt, educating our children and election integrity. It was a wonderful uplifting day!
Ours as well! We had lots of great amendments and speeches for (and against for a couple of them). I had never been to a caucus and had no idea what to expect, but really enjoyed it even though I was STARVING - as I got there at 8:30 and I didn't leave until almost 2:00. Ended at ~1:15 but I am a gabber. I had been warned to bring a snack, but left my bag of trail mix at home.
Yes you had to declare your party but for the overall voter base, party registration is still optional, I worked the primary in 2022, and we had to ask each voter which party ballot they wanted, regardless of what they were registered as or if they had even declared a party affiliation. (the option to affiliate was just added by the legislature in the 2022 session but didn't go into effect until after the 2022 elections.) Asking people if they wanted to declare a party when they voted started with the April 2023 elections (in my area anyway). Rep Dan Stacy has been fighting a multi-year battle to pass closed primaries, where you have to vote the party you are registered as, but it has failed to pass year after year. Not sure of the reason, other than the theory some have that there are some fake R's who like it this way? That, and the Senate fails to get much of anything done these past several years.
Senator Rick Brattin is amazing but there are a lot of RINOS in the MO. senate AND in the MO.House of Representatives, including my representative, Sherry Gallick. For anyone from MO. reading this comment, Diane Diehl, Jeff Farnan, Mike Haffner and Dave Hinman are RINOS too.
Add Mary Elizabeth Coleman to that list. She has her eye on running for Congress and led the effort to kill the landfill bill last session and looks like the monied class is working to defeat it again this session. (big PAC contributions to the climbers who are raising war chests for future runs) If you are not familiar, there is an effort to put a landfill in just north of the Cass/Jackson line. Homes/schools/churches and Longview Lake are all close by. Haffner has been a huge advocate for the bill that would enable surrounding municipalities to 'kill the fill' Current law says 'one half mile' but new legislation would make it one mile, allowing Lee's Summit, Grandview and Raymore to shut this down. There is a small patch of land along 150 where there are land acquisition efforts that is KCMO and while Mayor Q is playing dumb, he is not fighting it either. The proposed site is JUST under the half mile requirement. This has actually been a bipartisan fight. A woman who is a huge lib and a thorn in our side in local elections is big in this fight as her neighborhood is adjacent to this site. Proof politics does sometimes make for strange bedfellows.
Maybe we could carve out a section of the country where these people could live, on their own, happily ever after, with the Biden regime and their ilk , and their tens of millions of illegal aliens. Build a wall around them so they couldn't get out.
We call that Delaware 😉
Yep and name it...Sanctuary.
BBS, I dream of that daily. Let them live their woke world to it’s inevitable demise, … just leave the rest of us alone.
Yup!! They never just want to live according to their own ideology, they always have to try to make everyone else do so too! 😡
The progression is: Tolerance
Acceptance
Ratification
Participation
Only our participation will seal the deal on the plan for our subjugation.
We must resist with every fiber of our beings!
I think it already exists in Portland OR😉. Problem is; it’s not “sustainable” without OUR money🙄
Tina is working hard to get even more of our money. I hope I read it wrong but isn’t she proposing an almost one dollar increase in gas taxes? .93 cents?
It's called California, except they don't deserve that once lovely state.
Excellent idea!
My fourth grade daughter came home from school and said she defended Trump, and her friend said, confused, "but he says mean things." lol.
My son got chewed out by his teacher when he was in middle school during the 2016 election cycle because he defended Trump and she went on and on about how Trump mistreated women and was racist etc etc. I had words with the school leadership after that and the teacher stopped pushing her agenda but it still makes me mad.
Sooooo many "teachers" do this. She should haved thanked him for his opinion and then asked the class if anyone else had a comment. Or she could have given them a homework assignment, having them do a bit of research on the candidates and their platforms. All kinds of learning opportunities there! Instead she shut down the conversation, most likely embarrassed your son, and attempted to sway the opinions of the entire class. Terrible teacher.
I agree. I’m not necessarily against (age/maturity appropriate) discussions about politics or ideological ideas in the classroom. But the teacher MUST NOT EVER give any sign of his/her own opinions and must challenge all opinions and ideas equally. Make them think about why they think the way they do and have to support that with facts. That is actual teaching, not just indoctrination.
Those were the teachers and professors we knew, not anymore. Brainwashing has numbed the peaceful pursuit of intellectual thought and consideration,
and stimulated the most basic reaction of pure emotions on the subjects which concern us as a people.
Have you seen what generation is teaching today? The brought up on woke ideology
rather than religious values, (not to mention the sickening monthly stories I see on Daily Mail of female teachers having had sex or sending sexual photos to their young male students.)
These are very troubled, morally bereft generations of young people. (anwhere from 22 years old to 45).
HOWEVER - I am seeing signs this is turning for the youngest of this cohort, and perhaps it is gen Y, depending on what the cutoff is. Our local Turning Point chapters are gathering steam. Went to the State GOP conference in early Feb and was amazed at the number of young people there. There is a young man in our area that hosts a podcast called The Alex Stone Show and his goal is to convert his generation to conservatism, and has scored some great national interviews.
That would make me mad too. Good job speaking up and getting her to stop. I heard from my old friends that the public schools in deep red suburbs in missouri even play CNN on tvs in the classrooms, all day, clearly to brainwash the students and push an agenda. I don't have kids that age but I find it strange they have tvs on in classrooms. i guess they are quite determined to get these kids brainwashed.
Yes I’ve heard that too. My kids used to go to a smaller private school so at least we had some sway. I can’t imagine the public school would listen and act unless they were forced to somehow.
Years ago there was what was called Channel One. The benevolent company offered free TV’s for classroom use. Only requirement was mandatory watching the 10 minute Channel One “news” each morning. It consisted of CNN leftist slant of “news” deemed worthy.
A friend learned about it when her elementary-age child came home asking about something called masturbation.
Yep, coverage of Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders’ views of comprehensive sex-ed in schools etc. President Clinton fired her.
But what my friend learned that day started an investigation of Channel One & its motives.
Many school systems divested themselves from it after learning such tidbits as features on rocker Marilyn Mason & other inappropriate materials.
Most Public Schools still undermine parents who are trying their best to raise their children according to the values & standards they believe in.
TV in classrooms-This is frightening!
You GO, Mama Bear! And kudos to your young Patriot!!!
Aww thank you ☺️ I’m really not at all confrontational by nature, but that was stepping over the line for me! I wasn’t going to let it go.
And fourth graders don't?
I've always thought the uproar over "mean tweets" was completely overblown. 🙄 They'd rather see the country burn down than anyone's feelings get bruised.
The irony is.....They're ALL saying MUCH worse behind closed doors and outside the hearing of mics!
And actually often out in the open too. Joe Biden has been mean, nasty and condescending on many occasions, and people just laugh it off when he does it.
Yes! Absolutely correct!
Exactly! He's so much worse. Yelling at the podium like he did that time? He looked like an unhinged lunatic. Trump has never done anything of the sort. Biden is an out and out racist - he has said hideous things and gotten away with it. I think any leftist who defends him must ultimately agree with him (secretly).
I concur!
Yeah, what's the last thing? Something about white rural rage...I don't really pay that much attention.
I know, it's crazy. If they actually want to get into it with me - I never start these things because it's pointless, but if they ask, I always pose this question. If you needed a life saving operation and one doctor is basically a butcher with a consoling bedside manner, and the other doctor is Dr. Awkward No Filter, but is the best damn surgeon on the planet with a 98% success rate, who are you going to pick? I then tell them I vote on policy, not personality and they need to look at the total picture, not just one issue.
Because they are low information and brainwashed by msm.
Issues, stands on issues? What
are issues? We only look at the childish things, tweets, tans, etc. Orange man is bad and he is mean!
Around me (blue state), there are quite a few Haley and Vivek signs up. No Biden or Trump. Trump is going to win the nomination. Biden is a senile, corrupt pedophile who's tanked the economy and the country. I just think to myself...this really isn't a difficult choice...these ppl need to grow the eff up and stop it with the 'mean tweets' crap. It's not a valid opinion.
He's just using plain language b/c that's what appeals to his voters. And you know what? They're right. It's the language of the white collar, professional, "expert" class that got us into all these messes we're now dealing with. For example: It's easy to vote for "social safety net policies"; Not as easy to vote for "we're going to take your money, skim some off the top for ourselves, and give the rest to people who vote for us."
They don’t care about her stances, only that omb. And they will proudly wear that stupid tee shirt to the grave. And regardless the education they lack, they would never let it get to the point where they change their mind.
Pretty sure I’m related to a few of them *sigh*
Brainless
She's running a great campaign, she's been a loyal ambassador, cabinet member, wife and mother, she's just an outlet for back-stabbing anti-Maga voters
She hasn't been all that loyal of a wife and she's sticking her thumb in the eye of conservative voters. After everything that's been done to Trump, it's been very revealing to see clowns like Haley go out there and show support for tyranny. There's reason for MAGA to stab her, no back required. Facing forward would suit me fine. She's a traitor.
Agreed! Queen of Big Blue on the Potomac! Utter trash and treasonous. Maybe she is Romney with a face mask on? Or Pocahontas without the feather?
( i threw the loyalty thing in there for effect); wouldn't it be great if she was actually a MAGA plant who sallies forth from the RNC in July to harness the anti-Trumpers and touts him as being America's Last and Only chance to save us from Commie-Progressive-Tyranny? This truly is the case, and her future and legacy hinges on it; Lapdog Leftist on a leash who tacitly approves of National destruction, or join the Save America-Save Freedom Movement side of the ledger...there is SOON to be NO MIDDLE GROUND on this.
RINO with bad intentions.
Have you seen the dude her daughter married? LOL
No! Now you made me want to Google it lol 😂
Ok he’s black. So? 🤷♀️ I was expecting a man bun or something 😆
She and her family are race traitors.
Give me some mean Truths! I'm so ready!
Politically, trading stupid for mean isn’t ideal, but it’s wise in this case.
The Republican Party needs a house cleaning.
We need the Epstein list, that would clean things up everywhere
Tell it!
The Repub party is dirty dirty dirty and the party is still going on an on and on. The door is wide open and the sewer has been backed up for DECADES! It will have to be burned down. But there are far too many who like what happens there win or loose.
Totally agree. This 2-party uniparty scam has to END. It's been going on since the last war of the USG against the American people...Lincoln's war.
If the Democrats lose the 2024 race and then all the truth about the bio-weapon death shot comes out and all the voters wake up and realize that they are the walking dead because the shot was pushed on them, I fully expect the Democratic Party to disappear. They will have been gutted of all legitimacy in the voters' eyes.
It would take an outright collapse. I say outright because an engineered controlled collapse in a Pivot bid bait and switch to a 'new' monetary system does not count. With that we get new painted ponies. But turn on the garden hose and the new colors wash off. And then if one cares to see ... the same ponies as always.
Well, I am prone to wishful thinking.
I am still concerned Trump will be elected and in 1 short month will be assassinated.
If Trump is the Apex Money's choice, assassination won't happen. Or really, not too likely.
The indication is that The Money (CBs and Wall Street) want Trump. And the Supremes just voted 9 zip Trump is on the ballot all niffty fifty states.
Four years of Pedo Pete was the set up. If you see a financial crisis 2024 just before the election, the DJT is the designated 'cleaner'.
My understanding is that there is a banking crisis starting now which the public won't see for 3 or more months.
I agree with your logic. IF Trump is the Apex Money's choice, and I see every reason why then need to walk back some of the bad policies that are threatening their banking system, that sets up a VERY interesting conflict between them and the Marxists who captured the USG.
I need more popcorn.
That's not an impossibility. We don't want a martyr, but we need a strong and conservative VP. Unfortunately, Trump may need a squish VP to draw the squish vote.
