  1. Debra, I mostly lurk these days, and this week I’m super busy preparing to go out of town for a family reunion next week. But I did want to say I have read and appreciated your thoughtful posts of recent weeks.

  2. Sorry about posting that site twice. It didn’t seem like it worked the first time. The country dodged a bullet when our governor was not made VP. How many billions more would be stolen in the whole country? Shame on all those in office who steal and from those who don’t. This forces us all to pay more and more. It robs programs that would really help others. There are lots of way to do evil and the bigger the government the more ways to do it and hide it. May it all be revealed.

  3. Tychicus – My main point in sharing that was to show that reasonable folks of good faith can disagree on the issue, that there is a plethora of information on both sides of it. That was mostly in response to the comments aimed at DJ the other day.

    • Wow. That is so much worse than I thought. We’ve fed HALF the population exactly 1 meal a day for 89 days. Gaza has been blockaded for the whole duration of this war–thats over 650 days. And we are proud that we have given half of the population a starvation ration?
      We’re proud of THIS?

    “@PressSec @KarolineLeavitt took a blowtorch to the liberal media for their role in the Trump-Russia collusion hoax

    “This is truly one of the greatest political scandals in American history and reporters at legacy outlets — some of which are sitting in this room today like The New York Times and The Washington Post — were ridiculously awarded Pulitzer Prizes for their perpetuation of this hoax. It’s well past time for those awards to be stripped from the journalists who received them. It is not journalism to propagate political disinformation in service of the Democrat Party and those in the intelligence community who hand over out of context and fake intelligence to push a false political narrative.”

    “@DailyCaller’s @ReaganReese_: “The President said yesterday that Obama committed treason. Do you or the White House believe that the Supreme Court’s immunity decision protects Obama from prosecution?”

    @PressSec @KarolineLeavitt: “I can speak to the President’s feelings on this matter. He spoke to you yesterday in the Oval office, but I also spoke to him about this morning. And he wants to see all of those who perpetuated this fraud against our country, who betrayed our country, and the Constitution, to be thoroughly investigated and held accountable. And it’s been, you know, ten years of this. I would just add, based on everything the director has said and declassified, all of you in this room should go through and look at this report and review the intelligence. Because, unfortunately, that has not happens. Many of the people who perpetuated this hoax — Clapper, by Andy McCabe, James Comey and others — have been hired by major networks in this room to go on television and continue to spew these lies, knowing that they are lies. And, if you all recall, just flash back to 2016 and the years after, the entire Trump one presidency was embroiled in this scandal that was perpetuated by the Democratic Party. And you had major Democratic Party officials in this city — mainly Adam Schiff, Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren — who went on television and told the American people Donald Trump is an asset of Russia. It was a lie. They always knew. Hillary Clinton herself said that President Trump would be a puppet for pollutant. Senator Tim Kaine at the time called President Trump Vladimir Putin’s defense lawyers. Adam Schiff stated in one of the worst things that a lawmaker can do is tell the American people I know something you don’t know, it’s classified and I can’t tell you. And that’s what he said. I can tell you the case is more than that. I can’t go into the particulars, but there is more than circumstantial evidence now. Not enough people in this room, enough journalists in this country pushed Adam Schiff to say what are you talking about and what evidence do you have. Everybody just ran with the lies. It led to impeachments. It led to the division of our country. So many Americans, from listening to outlets in this room, believed in these lies and it’s a complete scam and it’s a scandal and the President wants to see accountability for that.”

  6. The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

    “Skydance Media has made a series of new commitments to eliminate bias in news and entertainment programming at CBS and its parent company, Paramount, when its planned acquisition of the companies is complete. Skydance is also confirming the “elimination” of all “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” policies and initiatives at Paramount, which had been one of the most aggressive proponents of DEI in the entertainment business.”

  7. We’re seeing a holocaust in real time. How much longer can we look away?

    “More than 100 international aid organisations and human rights groups are warning of mass starvation in Gaza and pressing for governments to take action.

    Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Save the Children and Oxfam are among the signatories of a joint statement that says their colleagues and the people they serve are “wasting away”.

    Israel, which controls the entry of all supplies into the territory, rejected the organisations’ statement and accused them of “serving the propaganda of Hamas”.

    Their warning came as Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry said another 10 Palestinians had died as a result of malnutrition in the last 24 hours.

    That brings the number of such deaths across Gaza since Sunday to 43, according to the ministry.

    The UN has reported that hospitals have admitted people in a state of severe exhaustion caused by a lack of food, and that others are collapsing in the streets….”
