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.

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.

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. 😞

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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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! 😉

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.

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.

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 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!

Donna in MO's avatar

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.

Add Mary Elizabeth Coleman to that list.

(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.

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.

Personally, I believe Trump loves America and the American people. But bottom line, can I trust my "belief"? I have to acknowledge that the USG is a totalitarian gov't. So I ask myself, what if, from the Apex elite view, Trump is a way to walk back some of the insane excesses and repackage the US totalitarianism in "conservative rhetoric" leaving the NeoCons in control of the country only now more focused on controlling the American people with less foolish adventurism overseas?

Truly, I have to wonder about this because one man cannot change the system. I'm forced to see that until the system completely collapses, much the same way the USSR collapsed, things will not fundamentally change for the better - only the optics. And I believe for this to happen, the Apex money system will have to collapse also. Just guessing, but this would seem to imply the dissolution of the entity called the United States.

Too much realism. I'm going to bed.

daverkb's avatar

There is so much here to unpack that it would take hours. So I will instead make a few points.

1) One can love America and the American people ... and not be what you and I would like things to be. And I am sure I would like Trump the private man very much and still from a more Westminster way of looking at things not have too much in common with him. The problem here would be a presuppostitonal world split apart which spills over into all other aspects of life. In a nutshell, DJT is more FDR while I am more Patrick Henry.

2) DJT is not one man. He is a force backed by a pervasive powerful group of people, presumably connected with the Apex Money, since The Money really runs the show from behind the curtain. DJT is a very smart, a capable highly intelligent man. He is probably the best we can expect. I have always said that DJT's sin from the Woke Radicals' perspective is that of being reactionary. DJT's vision is more America mid-century. This is way too tame for Woke Marxists who are hell bent on consolidating The Revolution in the 21st century. These revolutionaries are comfortable with people like Alinsky or Herbert Marcuse. Such as these are foreign to DJT nature. This is what they hate him. In an odd way, with some modern differences, Trump/MAGA versus Marxist Woke is a repeat of the eternal war between Red Shirts and Brown Shirts of 20th century Europe. By other means, it has the same vicious ring of street fighting about it.

3) Neocons, in general, are simply less extreme radicals. Both NeoCons and Redical Ds are Woke, more or less. Both promote total world hegemony, the UN Marxist agendas, secularization, the killing off of God and so on. And it is well to remember that Neo-Conservatism arose out of Trotskyism. They, all factions, are dedicated Marxists.

4) I agree as to total collapse ending a lot of stuff. And yet we might get an approximation of that, but don't bet your boots on any roll back on the totalitarian structures now in place.

5) Milei and what is going on in Argentine? I would not be surprised to see something like that happen here in the States once DJT assumes the mantle of president. And again, Milei's Davos speech sets the tone.

Excellent article. I think this is the way to go.

I first entered gold at slightly above $250 back in 2001. I spotted the 1999/2001 double bottom in gold (see the long terms chart in the article). The buy signal doesn't ever get better than that massive double bottom. I began to buy again in 4th 2018 (gold, silver ... and gold and silver stocks). My first gold buy in bullion was $1218 I think. It's always hair-raising at the time, but not too bad looking back now. As to the future, I am in agreement. Thanks for the article.

If the USD Index sags further, and the USD takes it on the chin, oil is likely to perform well. Gold is always safer and at 75 this month, I go with safe. And maybe long term, a cheaper dollar is wanted for reindustrialization. Something to consider. At any rate, 2024 is still looking Pivotal.

(As an aside...kind of funny how all the things we were told in school were "conservative" [neocons, fascists, colonialists, authoritarians] turn out to be more properly understood as leftists or the descendants of the left.)

she's doing "well" in Anti-Trump Colorado too, but let's face it her percentage of support would vote for RFK Jr., Potato head Joe, or write in their own dog before voting Trump...She's a non-factor and will win no one to her that isn't already anti-Trump. The only thing this indicates is how many of these can lose their stubborn ill-founded inhibitions and vote Trump. She told Colorado media that 4 more years of Biden will be the end of America and Trump would not be...they HATED that stance and asked her to clarify--she repeated it more strongly so she knows what's at stake here and must decide to join full on EVIL or Team Rescue or most likely, like MOST "moderates" (moderate views of Freedom and moderately Evil) stay put until one side or the other looks like they've nearly won...the moderate mushy moronic masses, the unaffiliated middle will silently WAIT and claim they are apolitical while the battle ensues, they exhibit their AMORALITY and APATHY and INDIFFERENCE more than anything else. Cowards, weaklings, indecisive and uncaring of others, unprincipled and dead weight in the fight for Liberty.

I like to speculate, but only based on developing patterns. Based on developing patterns, a financial market crises ahead The Election would finish off all contenders except DJT. And in fact, DJT said the other day that he hoped that a crises would happen before he was in office. That way, he could clean it up.

So what backs this up some. There is some serious front running going on on Wall Street. Billions sold by some leading figures including Jamie Dimon. Bitcoin up to 60,000 USD. And the money has to go somewhere. 2024 is shaping up to be a hugely interesting year.

And the Supreme? Nine zip DJT on the ballot all fifty! Breathtaking!

So the Supremes ALL told ColoRATo (4 of our justices, our AG and SOS Griswold pukes) that THEY are the true INSURRECTIONISTS and election interference collaborators; Judicial Insurrection. An immediate countersuit to this effect MUST be initiated and these bad actors challenged. NO DISSENTING opinion makes this clear; CO Leftists and Fake Rep. were Bitc-Slapped and it needs to get inflamed as such.

The SCOTUS always splits the baby however, and said State Offices may be Fkd with. So any and all CO Republicans who ever posted a BIG LIE statement, or sympathy to Jan6th protesters is fair game to disqualify...don't think these Commies won't take every inch of ground they can!

Here's the thing. Debt service on US government obligations is just short the entire DoD annual budget. This puts US debt service at around $750 billion annually. And if any part of the USD standard is to be salvaged, there is only one way I see to do it. And that's what's being done in Argentina. Cut US federal expenditures 50% across the board. Use that to service the debt debt, pay off the debt over time ... and possibly, to reindustrialize.

1) Powell has already said the Federal spending is now unsustainable. And I imagine Powell did not say that for just the fun of it. 2) DJT hopes that a crises comes before he gets elected and takes office, so he can fix it (and not be blamed for it). 3) Wall Street Big Wigs have front run sales in the billions, meaning they are exiting before something they already see coming. What does all of this (the short list) suggest to the mind?

Crises? Remembering this? Never let a good crises go to waste? Well, it would take a huge existential crises in order to get people to go along with cutting the federal government 50% across the board. As well, such surgical cuts could solved another problem. It would be one hell of a good excuse to eject Woke out of government seemingly overnight. Just call it the Pink Slip Woke Express. Think it could not happen? Well? (In extraordinary times the unthinkable then becomes the possible, and moreover ... the existential requirement of necessity.)

Not saying this will happen. But I do like to speculate and do so by extending out. Like on how Argentina just might be an IMF Beta Testing Laboratory gone full time operational.

Last Monday, February 26th, Senator Ron Johnson held a four hour jam-packed expert panel “Federal Health Agencies and the COVID Cartel: What Are They Hiding?”

Experts included Brian Hooker Ph.D., Barbara Loe Fisher, Jessica Rose, Ph.D., Edward Dowd, Kevin McKernan, Dr. Harvey Risch, Dr. Pierre Kory, European Parliamentarian Rob Roos, and many, many more. Each panelist spoke on their area of expertise, highlighting the latest discoveries and impacts of the injections, with the four-hour discussion focusing on these six topic areas: COVID-19 injection issues, the history of vaccines (injuries & cover-up), corruption of our medical & public health agencies, media censorship & propaganda, the C-19 response of other countries, and the WHO proposed pandemic agreement - which we are racing towards in May 2024.

If you are continuing the attempt to wake up family and friends to the tragic events that targeted all of us since the plandemic began, be sure to read and share this article which provides links to segmented portions of the panel as well as to the entire presentation.

FORGET correlation! It is happening all over and the bio-weapon is the cause.

Dr. Thorp, with over four decades of experience in obstetrics, issued a formal notice to the American College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists (“ACOG”), the American Board of ObGyn (“ABOG”), and the Society for Maternal Foetal Medicine (“SMFM”), demanding an immediate cessation of covid vaccine usage in pregnancy.

“You are placed on formal notice. You must call for an immediate moratorium on the use of the covid-19 “Vaccines” in pregnancy or you will be subject to Civil and/or Criminal charges for negligence, intent to harm, assault/battery and murder,” Dr. Thorp posted on Twitter.

“Best estimates are 585 million global citizens killed or injured from the covid-19 “vaccines” and you have inflicted massive harm to pregnant women, pre-borns, and newborns on a global scale.”

It's not a side-effect. Sterilization and still-birth are the designed purposes of the bio-weapon. The bio-weapon is sterilizing women (and men) of child bearing age as well as the children who were "given" the shot. Our population is cratering not just from death but also from the replacement rate dropping like a stone way below a level to just keep the population from shrinking. We are being replaced.

I think this is another case of "all of the above." Part of the design is to facilitate the vote giving non-citizens the right to vote. The Marxist design is always to divide and conquer. One way to do this is to destabilize society through mass immigration. This is also being done in Europe where the white population is being replaced with aliens. But right now, my biggest worry is the secret training of a non-citizen army by the DoD who will use this army against Americans. We could be quickly converted to a jack-booted tyranny such as has been seen in Europe over the past couple of centuries.

There was one huge omission in those hearings. There is good evidence that there was not really a pandemic. It was staged.

Yes… but where did Senator Johnson’s previous ‘hearings’ on the COVID BS go? ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE! He doesn’t have the backing of his fellow Senators or Congress people, who are willing to admit what a giant scam COVID was, to “pull back the curtain”, so to speak, on the Propaganda and $$$$ Boondoggle of the 21st century that Covid was…that seriously divided our country and murdered and injured millions of people.

Expand full comment
Renee Morris's avatar

You're right, he doesn't have their backing. They're all in the protected class. Once they admit it, they are liable under the PREP Act for harm inflicted.

I have come to the realization that these hearings are not theater, but so that people will continue to wake up, and will receive the most current information they should have had an inkling of four years ago, in order to make an informed decision on the gene therapy/poison injections that rolled out in December 2020 and that our Government is still pushing on the yet misinformed and unsuspecting public. (The CDC officially stated today that the 65+ crowd should once again get another injection of mRNA for the XBB.1.5 scariant - that is now extinct - and it is extinct according to the CDC's own data/website.) This is intent to harm as they, our US Government Officials & Agencies, know this injection is all risk and no benefit. Well, no benefit to the recipient getting it in his or her arm anyway.

Senator Johnson has been made aware of all of the laws and regulations that have been passed since WWII to make this specific plandemic unfold beginning in 2019 (via Sasha Latypova and Katherine Watt, as they both provided him with a treasure trove of amassed US regulations, laws, etc., in December 2022 for him to review and act upon.) For Senator Johnson to call attention to the laws and regulations on the books, to state that this was, and still is, a bio-weapon that ultimately sickens, slowly sterilizes, and culls the populace, I don't think for a moment he has the courage to tell that large bit of truth to the American people.

So, he holds a hearing, and this was a doozy, to help awaken the masses. He will sleep better at night knowing that he did his best, or whatever thoughts are of comfort to him, while the rest of us try to get those who are still believing the 'safe and effective,' BS that 'it must have been designed to be of help, to protect us, right?' to wake the heck up.

No politician, not one, is going to turn this around. It takes each of us, in our families, our circle of friends, and our communities to get it to stop. Thus, why I posted the link to the hearing.

Good luck, and may you be blessed in your endeavors!

If they didn’t have such a long, cold, gray PNW skies winter, I would be there! I have visited Idaho 7 times since August 2022. The last time was in the beginning of December.

Expand full comment
Renee Morris's avatar

Oh yeah, CDA and Moscow are like the "Norcal" vs "SoCal" of weather. Having lived in both, I can attest to that. We're in the foothills of Ada County, (very similar to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada's 25 miles east of Sacramento), in a wonderful community about 20 minutes from downtown Boise. Completely different winter in this part of Idaho. We get snow, maybe a few inches at a time, followed by beautiful sun and blue skies. Typical snow fall accumulation is between December and March, but not anything near the accumulation of CDA.

I hear ya on the gloomy days of just clouds and no sun, it can get to you after a short while. Thankfully, that doesn't happen often here.

If you plan any additional trips up to Idaho, be sure to check out Stanley and the Sawtooth Mountain Range. Redfish Lake is a must when you visit Stanley. (Like a mini Truckee and Lake Tahoe.) Absolutely stunning! Plus, we have so many hot-springs up here, which are incredible. :)

That was a very thoughtful comment. I shared the clip with a second cousin (in her mid 40’s) who is a college administrator at a small university in a small town in Western

CO. (And an avid NPR listener) I’ve been slowly ‘red pilling’ her. She has two kids in middle & high school. I send her stuff about the childhood vaxxes and the Covid scam in general and all the migrants streaming over the border (where I live) and a lot of Substack content. She never replies to the emails. She and her family live in that ‘higher education mentality bubble’…bleeding heart liberal type and all. She has no clue what’s really going outside her little town and the world of a college administrator! Her mom is my older cousin and she’s totally clueless. I don’t even bother sending her stuff. Perhaps the 14 minute clip of the hearing will assist in her awakening!

Another reason Victoria's Secret may be tanking. They don't (didn't?) prosecute shoplifters. In an era where people walk out with cartloads of merch and nobody stops them (and we are ALL paying for that), VS was the worst in our town. (Ok they did not call them out by name but they are the only lingerie store in town) I was in a citizen's police academy last year, where we sat through 9 different sessions learning about various aspects and challenges of our local PD. One week a detective told us about his frustration with retailers who call them regarding shoplifting and then DON'T PRESS CHARGES! He said some were better than others, but that VS was the WORST. Said they finally requested a meeting with corporate, telling them that if they didn't prosecute, to expect their calls for service to be slow walked. After initial misgivings, corporate decided it was OK for it's store managers to press charges. No idea of the reason, but our local PD does post pictures on social media of people caught on camera, asking for help identifying perps and let's just say there is a lot of diversity.

When I was first looking into DIE and CRT, years back, with an open mind, my conclusion was exactly yours.

Well the counterpoint to that is, it shows that fat people *can* work out. I’ve heard so many overweight people say they’re scared to go to the gym or try to start running because they think only skinny people do and they’ll stick out like a sore thumb. They’re afraid they can’t do it and afraid of judgmental looks. I’m all for not glorifying obesity but at the same time, I don’t see a problem with helping overweight people feel like they can exercise too. I’d rather encourage them to at least get some exercise in than stay home on the couch. Maybe it’s a little indulgent but I think it’s not a bad thing all in all.

Exactly. I always try to throw out a "looking good!" to people I see on my run when it is obvious they are just starting their journey into fitness.

Right? I think some curves is fine, but they have really gone over the edge with this body positivity movement. It just looks awful. I see the images and I'm like "ugh, I don't want to look like that" and I close the browser. I don't know if that makes me a bad person or what...but when you see something that looks great and you think you might look great in, you buy it. When you see something that looks pretty bad on someone, you just close the browser down and move on with your day. You know?

It’s human nature. I’ve been working out for over 30 years. It wasn’t an obese person that inspired me. It was my hair dresser. She was beautiful and fit. I was a bit overweight and not nearly as beautiful, but that was okay.

One day we started talking about working out. She recommended TheFirm Vol. 6 as a good starter workout. I got into great shape! I still do TheFirm workouts at home ❤️

We should not glorify obesity. It’s killing people.

right? I am definitely not in the camp of wanting to shame anybody or anything. It's more - what should we be striving for? Well, we should be striving for good health. And whether we like it or not, a lower BMI (which has historically been much easier to attain given our much healthier wholesome food options previously and much more active lifestyles)...is associated with more healthy outcomes overall. So if it's wanting to "look good" that ultimately motivates us to make the right choices, well then so be it. I think it's no accident on God's part that looking our best and feeling our best is ultimately obtained by avoiding things that are terrible for us (junk food, no exercise, smoking, excess alcohol, drugs, other high risk behaviors, etc.). You know? It just seems there's a reason there's such a high correlation there.

Aside from the absurdity of having a dementia patient as president, there is another bizarre aspect here. The US is sneaking in to airdrop humanitarian supplies to the victims of "our greatest ally". These victims are being killed by US supplied weapons paid for with US dollars. However the US is so cucked by Israel we can't just drive in but have to drop them from high altitude.

How can anyone possibly make sense of this?

And the Gaza death toll now stands at 30,000 Palestinians with over two-thirds women and children (more than twenty times the number killed by Hamas on 10/7). And of course 95+% of these people had absolutely nothing to do with the Hamas attack. Yet Israel continues wantonly bombing and killing while leaving the rest to starve.

Does anyone think this is God's will? Israel is not some God-fearing, pious nation but a place run by psychopaths. Tel Aviv's homosexuality makes San Franciscans blush. All of the transgender hormones come from Israel. The population has been whipped into a frenzy and they can't get enough of the killing. Israel is arming Muslim Azerbaijan in it's genocide against Armenian Christians and no one says a word. Yet as Christians we say we support this?

God will judge us harshly for having gone along with all of this. The only one standing up to the Israel lobby (and I mean the only one) is the insane left. A stopped clock is right twice a day, and this is one of those times.

Very very true. Years ago Tel Aviv had the 3rd largest pride parade in the world..they also legalized same sex marriage before the US did...they were much more mandated even than we were..they signed a 30 YEAR contract with Pfizer for their people to be "guinea pigs"..the Israeli government does NOT represent GOD'S chosen any more than our government represents us. Israel broke the covenant with GOD by repeatedly violating HIS requirements..thus voiding the contract..resulting in them giving up the promise. Plan and simple contract law. Will HE save a remnant? HE says HE will.

Agree with everything except this, “And of course 95+% of these people had absolutely nothing to do with the Hamas attack.”

From everything I have heard, Hamas is in power bc the people want it. Hamas’ charter specifically calls for the destruction of Israel. So, whether they are scared to speak up or what, I do now know. But their leadership openly vows to destroy Israel and spends all the country’s resources doing so instead of trying to build or create anything in the land they do have.

It seems there are no virtuous sides in war.

Hamas won in 2006 and there hasn’t been an election since then. And half of the people are kids who never voted for them.

Israeli has been restricting what goes into Gaza for decades. But an occupied state has every right to fight the occupiers. How do people not get what Israel has been doing for 75 years? Israel wants every bit of Palestine. What would you do if that happened to your state?

TB's avatar

It's worth remembering that even if Israel wants every bit of Palestine, it's also true that Palestine wants every bit of Israel. That's literally what "from the river to the sea" means - their goal is to conquer the whole land and kick out or kill all Jews living there. As Scott said, neither side are pure virtuous "good guys", but at least Israel's rationale is "we are going to conquer you because you won't stop committing terrorism", whereas Hamas' rationale is "we are going to murder you because you are Jewish".

All polls show overwhelming public support for Hamas. So it appears the people support the theocratic dictatorship. Which means whole the people are allegedly civilians, they aren’t the saintly victims many try to claim. They overwhelmingly supported mass murder on 10/7. Now they are finding out.

Sounds callous and cold, but it’s pretty easy to see how a rational person would agree with that when coupled with Hamas’ destruction of Israel goals.

What people don't seem to realize is that the globalists operate according to the principle of 'if you don't protest, then you are telling us that you think this is OK,' meaning they can keep doing it and they can do it TO US.

If people stay silent (and therefore complicit) in the face of genocide, they are inviting it into their own lives -- and those of their loved ones, their community, their country.

We saw it happen with the fires in Maui with people prevented by law enforcement from leaving, with many people missing and never accounted for, and now the land being sold online. It's the same playbook we're seeing in Gaza, given that as we speak stolen Palestinian land in the West Bank is being sold in US and Canadian synagogues.

Terrorists are being trained in places like Panama and being allowed across the US border -- https://twitter.com/Michael_Yon/status/1764214765860085821

So it looks like Americans are next, especially rural Americans who are now being openly vilified by the MSM.

Not to mention chemicals being dumped across the US all the time through geo-engineering and most people are not protesting, even though those chemicals are highy toxic and slowly killing the plants, trees and animal life we need to survive on planet earth.

Not to mention FEMA detention facilities set up in every state, apparently to be run by Walmart when they begin rounding people up. (Each facility able to hold about 500,000.)

Many people are waiting for Trump to save them. They need to consider, where does Trump stand on the genocide?

Biden ain’t sneaking in the supplies. He had to get Israel’s permission to fly over Gaza just like he has to get Russia’s permission to fly into Ukraine. Biden can easily tell Israel to open the gates and let the trucks in. He won’t do that because he fully supports Israel’s genocide as have most American presidents. It was the plan from the beginning.

Trying to force Israel to let trucks in would damage their "relationship", whereas an airdrop can be excused by Israel as "we don't approve but we're not exactly about to shoot at Americans over it" and avoid all the drama. Politics...
