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.
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.

@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!

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.

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☺️🙏🏻

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 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:

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

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."

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.
