A man running for governor of a state is making statements about the need to kill people. The state that he is attempting to run needs to put a distress flag atop the capitol building. While we are at it we need to do the same for the house of congress and the Supreme Court as all are in distress with the efforts being put forth to cover for, clear and reelect Trump.
The nation has been in distress since 2015 and he entered the campaign for President. It will be in distress as long as his influence or mouth can be heard. His message is that hate is the answer and it is okay to hate everyone that looks, acts or thinks differently than he does or his followers do. He is the Pied Piper leading the herd out of town, or the lead lemming leading the charge off the cliff, either way the direction of travel is destruction and death to democracy.
No matter which way you look there is some individual with some information or theory about how Biden is going to cause this calamity or that economic failure and how he is just falling apart mentally. There are not pundits making statements about Trump and how wondrous he is and what he plans to do etc. Reason for the lack on the T trail is that there are no plans, no platform other than “I intend to be a DICKtator and rob the country blind”.
The Deep State is running the government and Biden is taking a nap. The list is never ending about how age and mental state is a crumbling wall in Joe’s case and yet totally losing your mind, calling people out, threatening vengeance and all that is not an issue with Don. The media with few exceptions are on board with running Biden down and helping keep the focus away from the combover crook.
When the election is over and Trump has lost again are we going to have the blood shed that is going to come from the left because we are supposed to roll over and play dead so the 75 year old baby does wet or shit his diaper? As stated by a GOP hopeful there are people that need to die, it is just that he is requesting the wrong people be the final solution victims. It has been said that to solve a problem you should start at home, take it for what it s worth.

So at least one person died in Pennsylvania yesterday when Trump was shot . The violence he has been calling for was visited on him and his followers. This was not what the call for violence intended because it is only the people that are not Trump converts that are to have violence happen to them.
Will this make a change in what we see and hear from the mouth? He is not used to being on the receiving end of brutality. He sics the dog on others but does not have it turn on him. The shooter was a republican voter so all the attempts to pin this on Biden are false.The reaction by the Biden administration and most of the country is that we condemn this sort of thing no matter who the target. Different from the hammer attack reaction. This should tell you what the morals of organizations like the Heritage Foundation are when they comment about blood shed.

The recent decision by the, you should pardon the expression, Supreme Court, proves that the members of the court and the political party behind them and the general population that thinks this is great are not concerned for the future of their offspring or the nation. It all will be tossed down the toilet if DJT makes it back into power.
The Heritage Foundation, another misnamed organization, has a manifesto that is 900 plus pages long. This is the blueprint for how they intend to increase their worth and devalue all that oppose them. It is troubling to know that there are people who are sleeper agents for the destruction of our nation living among us. Most people have been fearful of aliens from space and they really should have been concerned with assholes from organizations professing to be loyal Americans.
These oh so righteous and good, true patriotic people are the ones that sit in the front pew at church and tell all how we must behave. They are also the ones that cheat on the taxes and probably on their spouses. Anything and everything is permitted if it puts an extra dollar in their pocket even if it was illegal as long as they can get away with it.
History is littered with the remains of those that have risen to great heights only to have fallen to even deeper depths. Will the plan succeed here? We cannot be sure at this moment but hopefully the majority will see this affront to our Constitution and freedom and vote to follow the path envisioned by our founders.
With that hopeful result it may be possible to finally get justice for the crimes committed as a result of the 2020 lie campaign and that the people currently in Congress that advocated such acts are appropriately punished as well as those that stormed the Capital. This should also include the establishment of term limits on all positions and the publishing of a code of ethics for all servicing in government.
The military has policies that dictate how people should act and there is punishment dealt to those that violate those policies. Military members take an oath to the Constitution as do all that are brought to service and the violation of that oath should not be ignored at any level of government.
If our way of life is so terrible and your ego says that you know how to do it better I encourage you, one and all, to go find a place to put your plan into action, but not here this belongs to those of us that have earned our nation by protecting it and being true to it, Thank You.

Lincoln Was Known to Respond to Insults With Jokes

Abraham Lincoln stood out, visually. He was the tallest president, at 6 feet, 4 inches (at a time when the average American male was 2 inches shorter than today), and he had the largest feet of any president, at a size 14. Consequently, Lincoln’s political opponents frequently took absurd shots at his appearance. In 1860, The Houston Telegraph wrote that he had “the leanest, lankiest, most ungainly mass of legs, arms, and hatchet face ever strung upon a single frame.” The Southern Confederacy similarly published a poem stating that “his nose was as long and as ugly and big / as the snout of a half-starved Illinois pig.” Lincoln took it all with characteristic good humor and was not above the occasional self-deprecating joke. He once recounted a story in which someone called him a “self-made man,” to which he replied, “Well, all I’ve got to say is that it was a damned bad job.” And when Illinois Senator Stephen Douglas called him “two-faced” in a debate, Lincoln famously replied, “If I had another face, do you think I’d wear this one?”

Australia used to be called New Holland.

WORLD HISTORY

In 1606, toward the end of Europe’s age of exploration, Dutch explorer Willem Janszoon landed on the western side of Australia’s Cape York Peninsula, believing he was on the shores of New Guinea, which is separated from mainland Australia by the Torres Strait. He mapped 186 miles of coastline before departing later that year. Other Dutch navigators followed suit, charting the northern, western, and southern coasts of the landmass. Despite the fact that the Dutch never never colonized Australia, by the late 17th century the continent was known as New Holland (Nieuw-Holland in Dutch) — but the name didn’t last.

In 1768, British explorer James Cook made the first of his three voyages to Australia. Two years later, he claimed the eastern half for Britain and renamed it New South Wales. A secret goal of Cook’s first voyage was to discover what was listed on ancient maps as Terra Australis Incognita (Latin for Unknown South Land), a hypothetical vast landmass that the Greek philosophers theorized must exist in the Southern Hemisphere to counterbalance Asia. By the end of Captain Cook’s third voyage, he had seen portions of Antarctica and mapped enough of New Zealand (also named by Dutch explorers) to disprove that Australia was part of the fabled Terra Australis; rather, a separate southern continent was located in the icy polar region.

In 1803, British navigator Matthew Flinders became the first person to circumnavigate the coast of Australia, charting unknown parts of the coastline and proving that Australia is a single continent. In his journals and maps of the expedition, he harkened back to Terra Australis when naming the continent, but shortened it to Australia. This time, the name stuck. As Flinders wrote in A Voyage to Terra Australis (1814), the new, abridged moniker was “more agreeable to the ear.”

As the media is clutching their pearls over a 90 minute bad debate performance the Marmalade Menace was seen for the first time in 10 days since he lied unchallenged every time he opened his mouth during the debate.

Joe Biden has been at 18 different events in that same time frame but all we can talk is Biden’s age.

At Donald event (rally) at his golf coarse in Florida where he continued to lie about what he did in his 4 years and actually tell his sycophants the truth about 2025 project. He in his macho manner challenged President Biden to an 18 hole golf match even offering to give Joe 10 strokes. President Biden did not dignify the challenge, not because he is unable to play, but because he he is actually campaigning and still doing the job he was elected in 2020 to do, something Donald Trump would not understand. So when the Trump campaign decries that Biden is afraid to accept the golf challenge just tell them to F… off,

The History of the Middle Finger…
Well, now…,.. here’s something I never knew before, and now that I know it, I feel compelled to share with my intelligent friends in the hopes that they too, will feel blessed in having gained more knowledge. History is way more fun when you know more fun facts about it, don’t you agree?
Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as ‘plucking the yew’ (or ‘pluck yew’), Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See, we can still pluck yew!
Over the decades Americans have since changed up the words , the ‘pluck yew’ is now “f**K you” and the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute! It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as ‘giving the bird.’ And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing.

  Another question has been asked and we are hard pressed to answer. Why the ever so important overt turning of the abortion law? Well, that would mean there are more children around even though they may not be wanted or desired. Will this mean that orphanages will be opening and if these children get abused and get into trouble will it mean more detention centers. 

    Great way to ensure that a work force of underpaid and pretty much underrepresented children are around to fill those jobs that are being pushed in certain states. As they are underage and not really on anyone’s radar, abuses and mistreatment could be very much part of the program until such time that we are able to get AI to take over those jobs. 

    Would they have treatment if ill or injured? Are they to be educated or just taught to do whatever job it is some factory boss wants them to do? We feel certain that there will be no long range planning for these individuals. They may even have the same fate as the extras in a puppy mill, when we can’t use them, lose them.

    Bleak picture isn’t it? Are we to accept that the voices of these oh so wonderful people that this is being done as God’s will? As someone else asked daily, What do you think? Post a comment.

     The things that offend or cause people to do or not do something just astounds those of us that have lived long enough to know, NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS. Get over it. A council person is unable to function because of the Pride flag. Big deal. You were elected to function as a representative of all the people in your district, don’t blame a symbol of something you don’t agree with for your inability to do your job.

     How about the ones of us that think using the American Flag as your symbol is wrong? It is our nation’s symbol that doesn’t belong to an egotistical ass or any of his followers. Most of those people should not enjoy the protections offered by that symbol as they are all traitors to it. That is especially true of anyone that served this nation in uniform and even more true if that service involved active conflict. How do you justify following a coward and draft dodger and the guy who considers all who served as LOSERS.

    Since the beginning of the Trump campaign in 2015 our collective civility and humanity has taken a sharp decline. He demonstrated that it is okay to call people names, bully anyone and everyone, lie, cheat and steal and get away with it. All of the baser attitudes and personal discontent that some have held for years  has been not only allowed to come out, but been encouraged to come out. 

     By doing that he has created divisions in our society that show like ugly wounds from a war. Yes those feelings may have been there before but everyone, or at least most people had the decency to be civil when expressing their differences. Now it is perfectly okay to be as vulgar as you wish to be, especially on social media. The rift has been made and anger and resentment will keep it open long after the reign of Trump has ended.

    The realization is that even though a lot of people back him by showing support at rallies and the like the only ones that matter to him are the rich folks that hold the strings to the puppet. Those of you, in the trenches, so to speak, are just wasting your time if you think he cares about you.  The one person he cares about is self and no one else.

    His speeches are not about what we will do but about what I will do. The only part of you that is included in any thought is how much can he talk you out of. Money is his God and ego is his mistress. 

    Someone or some group is always the target for hate and that has been a norm for mankind for as long as anyone has ever discovered. In most of history the people of Jewish faith have been the targeted group. The problems in the middle east go on, religious troubles on the continent of Africa, political troubles in Korea and China and it won’t stop just because it should. It will require intervention, understanding and compassion to resolve these issues. The process requires the outstretched hand of welcome, not the finger or the fist, and a smile not a frown.
