  1. Yet another attempt by corrupt Democrats and RINOs to cost Trump financial difficulties.

    And if safety checkpoints makes you feel less safe, you’re just a Karen with issues.

    “The Mayor of Palm Beach is considering shutting down Mar-a-Lago and kicking Trump out of his own house”

    In my mind, if the road is closed, the Mar-a-Lago Club is closed… You can’t have it both ways, boys and girls” – Mayor Danielle Moore

    After the attempt on Trump’s life in Butler on July 13th, Secret Service increased personnel around the property and closed South Ocean Boulevard, the road running along Mar-a-Lago. Police say “at a minimum” the closure will last through Election Day. Now the mayor wants to use the road’s closure as an opportunity to close Mar-a-Lago as well

    Local residents also say they don’t feel safe because of the new checkpoints added by the Secret Service, “Our residents don’t feel safe right now,” Council Member Julie Araskog said.

    She has now directed the Town Council to research whether it could close Mar-a-Lago until the road reopens”

  2. It’s election time, so we need a new pandemic.

    This is simple folks, don’t have gay sex, or swap bodily fluids with those who do, and you don’t catch it. Also, avoid skinning affected monkeys and animals.

    “Monkeypox, an infectious disease caused by the monkeypox virus, can spread through close contact with an infected person or animal:

    Person-to-person

    Through direct contact with an infected person’s bodily fluids, sores, scabs, or respiratory droplets. This can happen through kissing, cuddling, sex, or being face-to-face for more than four hours. It can also spread through contact with recently contaminated materials, such as clothing, bedding, or sheets.

    Animal-to-person

    Through scratches or bites from an infected animal, or by preparing or eating meat or other products from an infected animal. This can also happen through direct contact with an infected animal’s blood, bodily fluids, or sores.

  3. Antiquated thinking, from antiquated NeoCons.

    “I heard an interesting exchange a couple of weeks ago between Hugh Hewitt and an NRO guy he had on his show – not sure which one.

    Historically they have been in the same camp.

    But in tilting more towards Trump’s views, Hugh repeatedly told the NRO guy who was still promoting ideas from the 90s and 00s, “We were wrong on that. That’s not the way history has played out. We were wrong and we need to admit we were wrong. We need a foreign policy and domestic policy vision that recognizes what has happened in the past 20+ years, and doing so means understanding where we were wrong 25+ years ago.”

    That’s what they don’t acknowledge.

    Neo-conservatism in the 90s — post-Buckley NRO and the Weekly Standard guys — turned out to not be correct on a lot of issues.

    Most notably that free market principles would be adopted by authoritarian Govts around the world since they increase prosperity.

    Prosperity is a secondary concern with authoritarian regimes.

    Obtaining and keeping power is the primary concern.

    You know — like with the Democrat Party.”

  4. Yep. And they ain’t the only ones doing it. Most of our failed, corrupt media is.

    “CNN has been the biggest spreader of “misinformation” about every single important news story in recent history:

    -Russiagate Hoax

    -Ukraine War

    -Hunter Biden Laptop

    -Origin Of Covid-Ivermectin

    -Covid Vaccines Safe & Effective

    -Masks

    -Natural Immunity

    -Syria Gas Attacks

    -etc etc etc

    What this means is that CNN is flailing & bleeding viewers so they need to slander & Discredit their competition just like they did to independent news on YouTube to try and scare advertisers away from alternative media.”

  5. The interview with Ben Carson is very good. I had no idea that he and his wife play pool. So much I did not know! Some talk of politics but more on other things for quite an enjoyable listen. And he also talks about the best way for people who have different stances on politics to get along well together.

  6. I just started reading “When Christians Disagree – Lessons from the Fractured Relationship of John Owen and Richard Baxter,” seems like it will focus on personal disagreements among believers (over any issue or issues). But I’m still in the introduction, just started it last night before falling asleep.

    In the case of Owens (I’ve been helped by his writings) and Baxter (who I’m not as familiar with), unfortunately, their estrangement was deep and lasting, sounds like it was not resolved in their lifetimes on earth.

    As for the election, only 2 more months to go? Feels like the Dem convention fell very late this time, but maybe also the GOP convention fell early? Just a long stretch between them — but then this is one of those elections where it all feels very, very long and almost unending, like we’re stuck forever, as if we’re in a Twilight Zone episode 🙂

  7. Good. It’s time the federal govt stops double taxing your money. First they seize your money as SS tax, then they tax you again when you take what’s yours.

    Kamala will probably try to steal this idea too.

    “Here is Donald Trump telling you that he is going to pass legislation that will no longer tax Social Security benefits, because you know the person who actually drafted the bill to tax the Social Security benefits was Joe Biden.”

  8. They love stealing the ideas of Trump.

    “Fact check of your fact check:

    President Trump announced an executive order in May 2020 capping the cost of insulin at $35.

    One of Biden’s first acts as president was repealing this executive order so that he could then take credit for it.”

    Same goes for the tax on tips. Trump’s idea, Kamala steals it, but only after her and Biden hired 80k new IRS agents to go after said tips.

    “Biden just CONFIRMED that Kamala Harris is directly tied to the regime’s disastrous economic record 🤣

    And he says she won’t break from their policies.

    Kamala OWNS sky-high inflation and unaffordable groceries, and she’ll double down on it!”

  10. Dems will hate this. Cheating just got harder to hide.

    “The Georgia Supreme Court unanimously ruled that private contractors working for the government are also subject to public records requests. This means citizens can now obtain evidence from companies involved in elections like Dominion [voting machines]

    The court concluded in its ruling that “a request for public records related to a private contractor’s services to a public agency can be served upon non-agency custodians of the relevant public records — including the private contractor if he or she is the custodian of the records sought — and the Court of Appeals erred in concluding otherwise.”

    To clarify, the case was spawned from a man who, in 2022, sought records from a college contractor but was denied by the Fulton County Superior Court and Georgia Court of Appeals. It wasn’t election-related, but I couldn’t help but confirm with Georgia patriots, who told me this is HUGE NEWS in their fight to secure the 2024 election and get accountability for the stolen 2020 election

    By the way, it’s not just Dominion; Runbeck Election Services also does a lot of work in Georgia. They contract with Fulton and other counties to print and sort ballots. If anything goes “wrong” in November’s election, we now have a foolproof way to get to the truth before they delete everything

    This is one of the most significant rulings in recent history.”
