Dear KMAG: 20250310 Trump Won Three Times ❀ Open Topic


Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!


We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

wallflower

noun, adjective

  • a color which is yellowish red
  • an attribute of being colored yellowish red
  • a light purple color marketed by Sherwin-Williams
  • a genus of flowering plants, Erysimum, in the family Brassicaceae (mustards)
  • a shy, unassuming person

Used in a sentence

Whether wallflower is yellow-to-red or purple seems to depend upon the circumstances.

Shown in a different picture

But wait! Some wallflowers show the other wallflower!


MUSIC!

Wallflowers. Just can’t get away from them!

But wait! There’s moar!


THE STUFF

So what do you think about going to Mars? I can tell you, the crowd at Trump’s inauguration was incredibly enthusiastic. I was cheering BIG TIME. But let’s look at it more critically – both sides of the question. We’ve learned from Trump – always cover the downside. Listen to the critics, and think about what they say.

Still enthusiastic about Mars? I am! Ask me why!

Just sayin’!

And remember…….

Until victory, have faith!

And trust the big plan, too!

And as always….

ENJOY THE SHOW

Define “normal people,” or rather “normal Democrats.”

I’m probably way off, but it seems to me that those who abhor what the Dems are doing can’t stay Democrat for long.

Pelosi tore up PDJT’s SOTU speech and they still kept supporting her. I don’t know if those were “normal people.”

I’m wondering if Dems have stood and clapped for Republican guests at speeches to Congress in past years. I don’t know if this is a new thing, or if it’s just so blatant now that it can’t be ignored.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I doubt a single dem was upset, even momentarily, with her for tearing up the speech. It’s just another way of saying “what a load of bullshit” as far as they are concerned. Nuances like destruction of government documents don’t matter to them, especially since the speech is recorded in other forms anyway.

TheseTruths

It was the way she did it, the blatant disrespect to do it immediately after Trump concluded the speech, and to do it in front of Congress and the world that was watching.

But I’m sure you’re right. If any Dems had objected, we might have heard something.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

They hate him more than they have ever hated anyone.

And that’s because he wants to defeat them (not just pretends for show and theater), and can defeat them.

At that point who among them cares about a bit of disrespect? Heck, in their so-called minds it’s probably obligatory to show disrespect.

scott467

“And that’s because he wants to defeat them (not just pretends for show and theater), and can defeat them.”

_________

There must be a bottomless pit of reasons why they hate him.

To sum it up, they hate him because he represents and stands for what is good and right, and they don’t, and they know it.

And they hate him for it, because he reminds them of it, every time they see him or hear about some new thing he has done that is good.

Drives them absolutely MAD😁

See my description in this thread somewhere. I doubt most of them even saw her do it.

And if you tell them YOU saw it, they don’t believe you!

Aubergine

I’ll tell you who the Demoncrat voters are.

I know this lady. She’s about 70 years old, not very political in actuality, and a lifelong Dem.

I say not political “in actuality” because while she *thinks* she is politically savvy, she knows next to nothing. Nothing about Ukraine, nothing about the Covid vaxx, nothing about the C-Eye-A, nothing about Hunter Biden, nothing.

But she thinks she KNOWS stuff. And Donald Trump is mean. And he kills people. “What people,” I ask, incredulous. She’s not sure, but she knows he has.

So she votes Demoncrat. Every time. And she will til she dies.

That is who Demoncrat voters are.

pgroup2

I doubt that death will stop her from voting.  🙁 

Aubergine

Sadly, you are probably right.

Valerie Curren

My aunt, who is a strong Christian & sort of conservative culturally, is also very dialed into everything nature so walks in varying degrees of deception in that & other domains. She likely only has mainstream or lefty-nature type of news sources besides what she might hear at church. She sent an email to the family a few weeks back about how Donald Trump was “evil” due to some planned environmental action.

I could mention pro-life, prayer breakfast, free speech, going after child predators & many other things about DJT but I doubt her mind would change–unfathomable!

She has a granddaughter that she believes is demon possessed who has been on the tranny train for like 15-20 years, & has gone so far as to have breasts & uterus removed & change her name to attempt/pretend to be male. This has been breaking my aunt’s heart for a very long time but I doubt even DJT’s moves on objective reality regarding the sexes would really break through.

It reminds me of “the dwarves are for the dwarves” that was part of The Last Battle, the final Chronicle of Narnia–there are none so blind as those who will not see 🙁

It really is just amazing. Nothing breaks through.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I remember reading one time that groups of women like this at dances HATE IT when a “down the liner” happens. A guy walks up and asks one of them to dance, and she turns him down. So he asks the lady next to her, and she says no. And then the next…of course the lady he gets to last feels like she came in last in a beauty contest, so her attitude my just be “not no, but fuck off.”

TheseTruths

One has to wonder why they would all decline, and whether the guy’s ego took a hit in the process.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

After the second lady, the third has the thought bubble of thinking, “wow so I’m this guy’s third choice” and is likely miffed enough to say no even if she might have said yes if he’d asked her first.

Suggested strategy is to walk up to the group, make eye contact with them all and ask if anyone would like to dance.

I’ve found though that once past the 20s or 30s women just dance in groups and don’t particularly want a guy (other than husband or boyfriend) dancing with them. I’ve even run into women who say they feel like it’s “controlling” for someone to want to dance with them.

Valerie Curren

whoa…controlling to be asked to dance? i would consider it flattering. I must be old.

In this particular case, her previous husband whom she had *just divorced* was apparently a huge control freak.

So she was probably hyper-sensitive on that sort of thing.

I love to dance, and I will dance by myself if I have to. I dance to the sound of my blender when I make my morning smoothie sometimes, lol.

Bwah ha ha.

I can’t dance either, wasn’t allowed to growing up due to church legalism. Hubby can dance quite well but I basically can’t follow, even if I wanted to.

Our daughter Clarissa was the understudy Jan in the HS production of Grease, her brother Brandon got the lead of Danny Zucco. Anyway as Jan there’s a scene at a HS dance & Clarissa was dragging her partner all across the floor, it was hilarious & about as well as I can dance if I were to actually try 😉

Yea, but your hubby secretly loves it.

At slower speeds, car dancing requires windows down and singing loudly.

LOL…you sparked a memory. I love Stay a Little Longer by the Brothers Osborn. There is a guitar section in the song that just moves me and I move to it–my head bopping and the rest on me just moving with the beat. we got pulled over in NY once when that song came on because a cop thought hubby needed an escort because I was having a seizure.

That’s why you alternate requests between a really hot girl that you think you might have a chance with and a balding hunchback with a splotchy complexion and a limp.

patfrederick

so from the woman’s point of view, you have to be careful of whom you accept a dance invitation from, otherwise every balding, overweight, lecher thinks he has a chance?

Valerie Curren

There was a time that Josiah was out to eat with his twin bro & some of Brandon’s co-workers. The twins were at a table with a dating couple & J strikes up a conversation with the girl (this was when he wasn’t very smooth socially…oh wait…). Anyway somehow he thinks he should pick the chick’s brain as to whether she’d ever consider going out with him…as her boyfriend is sitting right there next to her.

Josiah is a legend in Brandon’s friend circle. He’s honestly extremely hilarious without really trying to be.

B was trying to explain to J about his friend David’s colorblindness. So, nearly seriously, J holds up 3 fingers & asks D “how many fingers am I holding up?” He absolutely slays everyone & doesn’t even necessarily know why.

There was this time when J was a kid & he was really mad at my husband so he yells out “Someday I’ll be Half the man that you are!”

It is the gift that keeps on giving fur sure  😂 

Valerie Curren

I think he was describing his version of a butt ugly chick LOL

Cuppa Covfefe

Oh goodness, folks can be so cruel, as explained by the joke that was popular when I were a wee bairn in school (or perhaps by the fact that it was popular, for that matter)…

Two students are at a dance, both of them wallflowers, one, due to an injury, having a wooden eye, the other having been born with a cleft palate, but repaired…

The boy finally screws up the courage to ask the girl to dance, to which she excitedly replies, “Oh YES!, would I, would I”… Dejectedly, he turns around muttering “Harelip, harelip”…

Brutal, indeed. For today’s snowflakes, there’s no space safe enough to deal with jokes like that… Just realized how long ago that was, as cleft palate repair has vastly improved, and wooden eyes are a thing of the distant past…

pgroup2

I must be lucky since I don’t get it.

My now deceased uncle had a glass eye. I missed my chance to see it out of its socket when he was showing my nurse mom for some reason…

I read that as saying he will do so even if they want to break away from Denmark and NOT join the US but rather remain independent.

Which sounds to me like he’s pushing for a Compact of Free Association like with Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and the Marshall Islands (all former US possessions that we still defend).

scott467

I wouldn’t take that deal if I was Trump, and I don’t think Trump will either.

The whole point (from our perspective) is that it’s a matter of OUR national security.

If they don’t become part of the United States, then OUR national security is always in doubt, always depending on who the next leader of Greenland is.

And if it wasn’t part of the United States, Sorass and every other enemy America is going to make sure the next leader of Greenland is one of their stooges.

From Greenland’s perspective, I wouldn’t want ‘free association’. They’re about 50,000 people, and they are situated right between multiple superpowers. They can’t possibly defend themselves, but if they become part of America, they’re as safe as they’re ever going to be.

Besides all that, they have a lot of coastline to defend, and that’s going to cost a lot of money. If they are part of the United States, then their mineral wealth can defray those costs.

Win – Win 👍

From their point of view, they’d get the defense in the compact, too.

We WOULD get preferential access to their resources as part of such a compact, too. It’s not like they’d be a complete welfare case like NATO is.

And Trump did indicate he’d be happy even if they don’t become part of the US, so long as they become independent rather than remain an appendage of Denmark.

scott467

I’m curious, why are you so opposed to Greenland becoming part of the United States?

Possession is 9/10ths of the law. If we don’t possess it (and vice-versa), then it’s not a marriage, it’s a summer fling.

That’s not security, for either party.

As for indicating he’d be happy either way, that’s part of the Art of the Deal. Does no good to look desperate… or like a dick-tater 😁

I won’t go so far as to say I am SURE Anthropogenic Global Warming (i.e., the proposition that we are causing all or most of the change by belching CO2 into the atmosphere) is bullshit, but the people saying it is have raised questions I want answered. (Maybe many of them already have been; I don’t know.)

And on one level, I don’t care if it’s true or not. Because I don’t believe it would justify the shit they’re trying to impose even if it’s true.

I still want CO2 up around 1000 to 1500 ppm. It would make the plants very very happy!

Gail Combs

The real problem is cold water LOVES CO2 so when the planet/water cools the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere drops.

It is CO2 STARVATION that is the real problem according to peer-reviewed papers:

Carbon starvation in glacial trees recovered from the La Brea tar pits, southern California
La Brea is at sea level.

Royal Society: Carbon dioxide starvation, the development of C4 ecosystems
We mainly eat C3 plants.

Impact of lower atmospheric carbon dioxide on tropical mountain ecosystems

Abstract

Carbon-isotope values of bulk organic matter from high-altitude lakes on Mount Kenya and Mount Elgon, East Africa, were 10 to 14 per mil higher during glacial times than they are today. Compound-specific isotope analyses of leaf waxes and algal biomarkers show that organisms possessing CO2-concentrating mechanisms, including C4 grasses and freshwater algae, were primarily responsible for this large increase. Carbon limitation due to lower ambient CO2 partial pressures had a significant impact on the distribution of forest on the tropical mountains, in addition to climate. Hence, tree line elevation should not be used to infer palaeotemperatures.

Compound-specific isotope analyses of leaf waxes and algal biomarkers show that organisms possessing CO2-concentrating mechanisms, including C4 grasses and freshwater algae” means plants using C4 pathway and not the older C3 pathway used by trees. Most of our food is C3 pathway.

As you go up a mountain, low CO2 partial pressure, and not temperature limits trees.

Plant responses to low [CO2] of the past

The authors compared gas exchange rates of two populations of Oxyria digyna – one from high altitude (Logan Pass, MT, USA) and the other from sea level (mouth of the Pitmegea River, AL, USA). Seeds from these populations were grown under common conditions and photosynthetic rates were measured across a wide range of [CO2]. The authors found that photosynthetic rates were higher and CO2 compensation points were lower in offspring that originated from alpine populations, and suggested that this may reflect adaptations to lower CO2 partial pressure at high altitude. The authors also concluded that low CO2 partial pressure, and not temperature, limited the upward distribution of the Oxyria populations in this case.

Cuppa Covfefe

We’re at the second lowest we’ve ever been.

CO² is plant food… and, by extension, human food…..

Cuppa Covfefe

Up in Holland they have these ENORMOUS greenhouses to grow veggies, and tulips, and all manner of things, and they have these things that look like air conditioner units (or, God forbid, warm pumps) on the side of them. Seems they use 1400 ppm and up, and it doesn’t bother/affect the people working there at all….

And it beats the steaming manure on the frozen fields hands (nose?) down…..  💩 

pgroup2

CO2 is about 0.04% of the atmosphere.

Far too small to control the weather IMO.

It’s rather late, but I should note that this “bad models” thing is rampant in (of all things) finance as well as science.

This is especially common in cost accounting. The short story is that you’re supposed to absorb all the costs of inventory into inventory — so that it’s not just the cost of a part, it’s the freight to get it to your facility, the buyer’s salary, the cost of the square footage where you put the stuff, etc. When you put parts together, it’s not just the wages and benefits of the guys who put screws into nuts, it’s also the cost of the rent of the union rep’s office, the cost of the parking lot for all the workers tightening things, the power for burn-in cycling…..everything and the kitchen sink in the breakroom.

But then you kludge all this stuff into a model that says you’re supposed to be making 1500 widgets per month and you’re only making 1000, so a third of all those costs get blown-off as “underutilized capacity”. And some of these utilization models make UPenn hockey sticks look respectable…..

^^^ this. Don’t get me started on mark to market. Oh crap, I guess I cannot help it. discussion from Investopedia.

A 2023 regional banking crisis in the U.S. demonstrated how MTM can create unexpected challenges. When interest rates rose rapidly, banks holding long-dated Treasury bonds—traditionally considered among the safest investments—faced substantial unrealized losses. Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), for instance, had invested heavily in government bonds when interest rates were low. When rates climbed, the market value of these bonds fell dramatically. Though the bonds would still pay their full face value at maturity, SVB was forced to recognize billions in MTM losses when it needed to sell these assets to meet deposit withdrawals. This ultimately triggered the bank’s collapse.2

This scenario highlights a crucial aspect of MTM accounting and its effect on balance sheets: it directly links market swings and a company’s reported financial strength. As asset values decline, equity capital shrinks, too, potentially triggering real problems for banks and other institutions. Conversely, MTM can inflate reported earnings and capital during market bubbles, creating a false sense of financial strength when caution is warranted.

For banks, regulations like Basel III include provisions to mitigate some of MTM’s procyclical effects. For example, certain securities can be classified as “held to maturity,” allowing them to be carried at amortized cost rather than market value—but only if the institution can credibly demonstrate both the intent and ability to hold them until they mature.

This is where my personal experiences demonstrated that regulators can help you or take you down. We were actually criticized by FDIC examiners for not being overly aggressive in our activities during the lead up to the Great Recession in 2007. My goal was to be sitting on cash and selling every loan we could get off the books to prepare for an obvious train wreck about to happen. Ownership was swayed by the regulators to remain aggressive in adding more assets (loans) to the books that would be pooled for resale into securitizations. It all began to tank in the debt markets with no loan buyers and then mark to market happened on the investment portfolio of the T-bonds.

The regulators pushed to add assets that reduced liquidity and then the whammy of MTM. No liquidity left to argue the bonds would be held to maturity. The bank eventually collapsed under the weight that was created by ownership doing what regulators told them was best and not listening to the people who created the income stream they wanted to maintain.

I still maintain it was a set up by competition or nefarious political opponents of ownership within government and the ownership was oblivious to it.

BB&T, our bank was the same. The CEO was an Objectivist (Ayn Rand fan.) They had escaped all the questionable loans Clinton admin was mandating and were in fine shape after the 2008 crash. However the US government FORCED them to take the “bailout” allowing the government to get their fingers into the bank. Unfortunately it has now been bought out. GRRRrrrr.

I hadn’t paid much attention to “global warming” until I attended a mandatory three-day educational session about it in 2007. Among other things, we watched “An Inconvenient Truth.” The tipping point was to occur in 2013. It was all verrrrrry scarrrrrry. Happily, 2013 came and went with normal temperature, snowfall, rainfall, etc. fluctuations where I live.

At some point, it became “climate change.” Same scary message, but . . . . Yes, climate always changes. Check out the Maunder Minimum, Dalton Minimum, and other minimums caused by uncontrollable and untaxable solar activity. I’m sure that Steve, Gail et al can fill in details.

Do not forget the selling of CARBON CREDITS….

From my old notes:

The World Bank was boasting it was a multi-billion dollar industry.

United Nation’s Clean Development Mechanism Report:

“…Africa is already experiencing social and environmental upheaval from land grabs motivated by a large-scale rush for biofuel crop production, even as the science shows that the CO2 reductions from biofuels are highly questionable, and the social and environmental consequences, negative. The African continent has also seen disastrous impacts from large-scale plantations of exotic tree species that particularly affect local water resources….”

I worked at WWF as a programmer back in my early 20s and I was still sort of naive about global warming and environmentalism in general. The job was located at their Washington, DC headquarters and I was hired to create a new database for their “Climate Savers” program. The idea was to keep better track of the enormous revenue streams that they’d extort from Fortune 500 companies in exchange for not waging organized media campaigns against them (Nike, HP, Dupont, etc).
Their Climate Change Department was staffed by creepy fanatics who would run around screaming about how Bush stole the election and other crazy things about whales and “climate justice”. I was young and didn’t know what to make of it all so I just shrugged it off. Anyway, the head of the Climate Change Department was this freaky woman named Jenifer Morgan. We just called her “the forehead” because of her massive forehead[1]. She threatened to leave DC if Bush was not impeached for war crimes. She kept her promise and got transfered to Bonn, Germany along with her personal assistants.
Last I heard, she no longer works for WWF but continues to fly all around the world on behalf of her new environmentalist NGO.
The WWF headquarters building was a state of the art corporate complex with lots of plants but of course they kept the AC cranked up full blast during the hot DC summer months. In the basement there was a modern gym that employees were encouraged to use so I started using it after work. A lot of these guys who were “campaigners” would blatantly hit on me but I’d just ignore them and keep to myself. Later I stopped going to the gym after I personally witnessed some sort of lurid gay sex going on in the locker room.
I left WWF shortly thereafter.
Anyway, the shocking fanaticism and hypocrisy that I’d witnessed made me curious to learn more about the issue of climate change and what it was all about. That was when I officially became a skeptic.
True story.

The Cabal wants to plant eucalyptus trees in Africa as a means of producing ‘Carbon Credits.

PALATABILITY :
Bluegum eucalyptus foliage is unpalatable to cattle, sheep, and goats”
http://www.fs.fed.us/database/feis/plants/tree/eucglo/all.html#7
The grass “fogged” with eucalyptus oil would also be “unpalatable”
No one comes out and says it directly but you know if a goat won’t eat it most other herbivores won’t except for adapted Australian species. That is what is meant by “creates a loss of habitats for many species”
A eucalyptus forest planted in Africa or South America creates an “ecology” devoid of other life.

I have done a search and found “eucalyptus” refers to more than one species of tree. Those introduced to Calif. USA do not produce good lumber although they are a major fire hazard. Tasmanian Blue Gum (eucalyptus globulus) seems to be the main culprit, in fire hazard and allelopathic properties (prevent other plants from sprouting)

There is a good synopsis at http://www.hear.org/pier/wra/pacific/eucalyptus_globulus_htmlwra.htm
The most alarming comment aside from the fact it is not eaten by livestock is that it is an invasive monoculture weed.

<i><b>(1)”Blue gum typically grows in dense monospecific stands.” (2)”The loss of biodiversity and habitat is a great threat from the Tasmanian Blue Gum tree, as it is from any eucalyptus. It creates virtual monocultures and can rapidly take over surrounding compatible areas, completely changing the ecosystem. That monoculture creates a loss of habitats for many species that relied on the previous system. Due to its great capacity for taking over a wide variety of habitats, the Blue Gum eucalyptus could possibly spread to a great range of systems where there is enough water content and create huge monocultures.”</i></b>

There is also information that if the stump is left the tree will just resprout, and grow 20 feet in one year if it already has established roots from before it was cut down to a stump. This is considered an “Advantage”by the forestry companies but for third world people dealing with an invasive species this would be a nightmare.

Just for reference so we know exactly what is being dumped on the African People in the name of “Global Warming” aka the human extermination project. (Given the characteristics of eucalyptus and its introduction not only in Africa but world wide it IS a human extermination project, Anthony)

All the hullaballoo about «carbon capture». Apparently there has been the usual abbreviation of carbon dioxide to just carbon. As if there weren’t any other kinds of important carbon compounds around such as coal, graphite, diamonds, hydrocarbons in fuel, carbohydrates in food, besides everything else that is involved by organic chemistry

And cellulose. Looking at the woodlands next to this proposed expensive plant that has been in the process of being built for at least ten years. And then realizing, that all the wood in the trees there was all grown with carbon dioxide as one of the main input materials. CO2 capturing ongoing; the plants in question are the natural kind that fill the niches in their local ecosystem, but this happens without a budget, thus no expenses that can be reimbursed, profits that can be taxed, or anything like that.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yep.

It’s like the word “organic” which (to a chemist) means just about any compound containing carbon (though some exclude carbon compounds that do not have any carbon-hydrogen or carbon-carbon links, so CO2 is out for them). So when you try to tell me these are organic carrots–well aren’t they all? Or are non-organic carrots made out of colored glass?

Gail Combs

I always loved “No chemicals added” You mean you are selling a perfect vacuum?

Gail Combs

  :wpds_wink: 

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Well as long as “no chemicals are *added*” they’re not selling a vacuum, but they clearly didn’t *add* anything.

“Contains no chemicals” would indeed be a perfect vacuum. (I guess the neutrinos flying through the volume in question don’t count as chemicals.)

These Truths, I am about to ask you for a HUGE favor. I will understand if you can’t do it, but I have to ask.

Reading along as I do every morning, with mostly black words on a white page, and coming to the black box with the white words sometimes (like once a week) triggers an aura migraine for me.

Could you, would you, pretty please maybe post in white with black letters?

I really hate to ask, but even just scrolling past doesn’t seem to help. It’s the abrupt contrast thing I think.

I do understand if the answer is no. It may be too much of a pain. Maybe you get headaches from reading the opposite way.

pgroup2

I bet there’s some setting on your browser or your ‘puter that could deal with your issue. It’s time for the geeks on this blog to chime in.

This program may help: https://justgetflux.com/faq.html

I’ll try to find something. Thanks!

Aubergine

I can’t use dark mode. It sets off these damned headaches.

Oh man…

Aubergine

Thanks, Wolf. I know there is a “dark mode” thingy that people use.

Gudthots

I think if this site had a dark mode option, the black background memes would fit right in and the white background memes would cause you trouble.

TheseTruths

I’m sorry about the migraines! As Wolf said…

TT gets a lot of memes from other channels, and you pretty much take what you get on X captures.

…and I have no idea how to change the background on a meme that I copy and paste from somewhere else.

If anyone can tell me how to do that, I will be glad to try.

Would it help if the dark memes were behind a spoiler?

Aubergine

Well, I don’t want you to hide your memes!

I will just be more diligent about looking away and paging past if I see the top of one.

I just wasn’t sure if you were getting them from a whole page in dark mode that could be changed. But it sounds like you aren’t. It’s ok.

TheseTruths

I get them from random places. As I read here today, I notice that some others have posted memes with black backgrounds. I’m not sure how to help, and don’t want to be causing migraines!

Aubergine

Really, it’s ok. It only happens sometimes, and I can be more proactive in just not looking! I just had hopes that it was simple. Silly me, it’s modern technology, which is rarely simple!

TheseTruths

Not simple for me either!

Gudthots

I am sorry that happens to you Aubergine. I have a similar issue with moving images/GIFs. For whatever reason it acts like a brain stun effect and I have to gaze avert, move the window so that part is off the screen, or scroll away. Having a large desktop screen set in night mode (more reds, less blues) also helps.

As for overall migraine management, I’ve actually been getting help by adding liquid minerals into my water, especially right after I get the symptoms. If I would get the minerals into the water every time, I think I’d have less migraines.

🤔 Normally the idea is to attract capital to the USA. Certainly that is Trump’s plan. Thusly there seems to be some disconnect here. Between Citizenship and illegal aliens there is something called “Green Card Holders” whom are legal. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the news assembler here might have over looked that. I can’t see the SBA under Trump, him with his new Gold Card thing would eliminate a likely needed tool for up and coming entrepreneurs coming into the USA. Further banks would like strongly frown on this. This likely a matter of lazy or incomplete reporting seeking to err toward brevity perhaps.

i wonder, do they keep track of the tail numbers and pilots of these flights? I remember years ago when my son bought a drone (they were new, he thought it would be fun.) he had to register it and give a phone number to receive alerts on no fly instructions from the local airports. so there were supposed to be no “oh-i-ididn’t-know-i-couldn’t-fly-here-or-now” incidents.

It’s been less than 2 months since PDJT was sworn in and flying over MAL became “restricted”.

A) It takes time to update aeronautical charts.

C) People don’t know exactly where MAL is.

Once.

Without curtailing spending, we’d have a deficit next year and no land to sell to cancel it out.

Or are you claiming we could pay off the debt (not the deficit) with a land sale?

I doubt that, at this point (it was possible 20 years ago, but the debt has exploded since then). Much of the land the fedgov holds is not very good land.

A lot of that is not very good land because the Fed is an irresponsible steward.

Wasn’t saying “and we don’t want that” just saying that we might eventually run into something most of the population regards as muscle rather than fat, and find it politically impossible (or suicidal) to do so.

For instance there’s probably a minimum amount we can run the DOD on even if we could remove all waste. Maybe that number might be too much to run without some sort of non-tariff taxation. I don’t know.

On the right is accurate (well, it’s 20.67 plus 71/387ths of a cent). (See my Saturday daily for some more info.) The price on the left is woefully out of date. It should be over $2900. (Which is roughly three more rubber-banded bundles of one dollar bills.)

The deflation of the dollar under Biden, has caused a lost of 25% of its value. In only four years. 96.8% of its value has been taken (stolen) by the FED since 1913. Today’s dollar is only worth 3 cents of a 1913 dollar when the Federal Reserve Act was passed in 1913.

Put 2024 in the top box, and 1913 in the bottom box:

https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Given the FRNSI is about 140 right now, I’m surprised that calculator reads 3 cents rather than less than one cent.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

By the way, I mentioned the other day (when I posted the video of Sabine Hossenfelder reading the email) that Professor Dave hadn’t responded to her last salvo. Well, a couple of days later he did, stating he doesn’t believe the email was actually real (he talked to other physicists who claim no one in their field would talk like that; I stopped watching at that point for lack of time so I don’t know what other arguments he mustered). Which if true, would completely discredit her on the subject of institutional science/academia being bullshit. If she has to lie to make her point, I don’t want to hear from her.

Which doesn’t mean I won’t find her talking about physics qua physics interesting.

In the video shared today she did state some level of belief in the dangers of “climate change” which is quite an unserious view, imo…

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Yes, she thinks it’s real but overblown.

For that matter, we see a lot of alarmism by environmental activists, extreme predictions of imminent huge swings in temperature; you know, the predictions that we laugh about five years later when they don’t happen. The actual climate scientists don’t believe it’s that bad but they do fear hitting a tipping point where it gets out of control. The environmentalists are trying to scare us into fixing it before we do hit that tipping point.

The “tipping point” worry/scenario I hear the most often is that methane frozen into the permafrost might be released as the permafrost melts, and methane is a much stronger greenhouse gas than CO2. So if enough of it gets out, it will heat the atmosphere, then more methane will be released from more melting permafrost, and a positive feedback loop happens. (It’s ironic that it’s called “positive” but it’s bad when it happens.)

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

A short on time zones and why their boundaries don’t follow the 7.5 degree plus/minus 15 degree increment boundaries.

Valerie Curren

I thought that Russia might have a bunch/most? of time zones, at least looking at how many it hits around/near the Arctic Circle.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

I used to read claims they had 11 time zones. But that was back in soviet days. Perhaps now its a couple fewer with lost territories.

Also, in some cases a time zone doesn’t exist there. You cross a line and the clock shifts TWO hours, skipping over what would normally be a time zone. By the logic of the short, (where a timezone not used isn’t counted even if its between two that are), that would reduce the timezone count.

Valerie Curren

Makes sense, TY

Firefly

Interesting that China decided to have only one time zone ⏳

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

It’s silly in a way, because people in the East STILL have to ask themselves, “is that guy I need to talk to in the west actually at work yet or not?” When WE have a question like that we can do a time zone conversion, realize it’s 9 AM where he is and say “yes”. Over there, they have to remember different business hours, which seems to me would be more difficult.

Cuppa Covfefe

I’ve had times when my Mum would get the offset backwards and call me in the middle of the night 😆

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

And OBTW that makes that time zone (which also includes central indonesia, which is a lot of pople too), the most populous in the world.

However, China’s population is so heavily concentrated in the eastern part of the country (I think “only” a hundred million or so live in the west) that even if they did have three zones, it would have virtually no effect and eastern China Time would still be the most populous timezone in the world.

Gudthots

Helpful!
I would suspect that having one timezone in China
could actually help in business operations.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Except that people in the west still go in at the same time of day…their clocks just read later. Which means people in the east still have that age-old question of whether those guys in the west are at work yet, but they can’t just do a simple time zone change in their head to answer the question,

Instead of asking “what time is it in Xinjiang” they have to ask “when do those folks in Xinjiang go to work?”

para59r

Chinise likely have a certain level of contempt for their outer provinces like Tibet etc… and like to keep them off balance, so I think there might be some of that going on as well. It’s almost like a an extra form of punishment. These people didn’t just roll over and accept communism.

para59r

Example if you live in one of the western provinces prone to being trouble for the central communist party your forced to wake way early to go to work and leave work way early during the day if they want or have extended hours if they want that. Punishment and control.

SteveInCO · Thermonuclear MAGA

Also notice on the thumbnail that the Russian part of the time zone is well to the west of the rest of it. That’s because the Russians have essentially DST even in the winter, and go on double DST in the summer.

I was just reading the article at Coffee & Covid by Jeff Childers, link posted by barkerjim on Friday.

This is a portion about Gavin Newsom’s podcast interview with Charlie Kirk:

…………………………………………….
“Then came the landmine. Charlie got Newsom to admit that boys shouldn’t play against girls in sports. “I agree with that,” Newsom generously conceded, not laboring the point, and tossed in, “it’s deeply unfair.”

comment image

The Governor probably thought he was on safe ground by invoking “fairness” —i.e., equity— but he didn’t realize he was already halfway sunk in woke quicksand.

Cue the meltdown. Right on schedule, the cancel machine roared to life. “It’s disgusting,” disgusted former Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot said. “There are kids waking up today in California with this news thinking that their governor hates them, and rightly so.” (Note the wildly exaggerated motive imputation—the left’s tactics.)

Representative Pramila Jayapal (D-Wa.) urged Democrats to “not take Newsom’s bait and give in to anti trans people rhetoric.”

Representative Sara Jacobs (D-Ca.), vice chair of the Congressional Equality Caucus, chimed in, grousing that “What’s deeply unfair is the targeting of transgender kids and politicians abandoning them for political expediency.”

Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson had a warning for the oleaginous Golden State’s Governor: “Our message to Gov. Newsom and all leaders across the country is simple: The path to 2028 isn’t paved with the betrayal of vulnerable communities —it’s built on the courage to stand up for what’s right and do the hard work,” she said.

Newsom is a governor stranded on a cultural island. Last week, every single Democrat in Congress voted against a bill requiring college athletes to compete based on biological sex.

Newsom thought he was making a smart pivot — positioning himself as the reasonable, nuanced Democrat who could win over moderates ahead of 2028. Instead, his own party proved Charlie Kirk’s point for him. The second Newsom deviated from the official script, they didn’t debate him—they canceled him.

There’s no room for nuance, no space for discussion, no mercy for heretics. The woke machine doesn’t negotiate—it enforces. Now, Newsom is learning the hard way what conservatives have long known: when you step out of line, they come for you.”
…………………………………..

Notice anything about all the cancelers?

Lori, Pramila, Sara and Kelley?

Unless any of them are trannies, those are all Leftist wymyns.

The insane, radical ‘true believers’ of the Demonrat Party, the Borgettes, the unhinged, irrational, illogical, implacable, unreasonable, intransigent, unaccountable, femiNazi wymyns.

They’re nutcases, mentally gone.

But the wymyns are the most virulent, most nasty, most vindictive, most strident and most hateful, by far, of the Leftists.

They’re not going to say a WORD to the Leftist covens who rule over them.

It’s a perfect opportunity for Newsom to call these witches out, burn down the whole lunatic asylum, and establish himself as the only rational alternative to the feminist immolation of the Demonrat Party.

It would be so easy.

One Man, on their own side, calling them ALL out, and throwing them under the feminist insanity bus, would explode whatever is left of their addled minds 😂

And it would make him a hero to any actual men who remain on the Left.

All he needs is the stones to do it, knowing the insane but impotent fury it will provoke, and not flinch.

The only person who can call them out and humiliate them into submission or cause them to splinter off into some dead-end splitter-faction is someone on their own side, and whoever does it becomes the de facto leader of the Demonrat Party.

If Newsom thinks he’s presidential material, his first action to save the Party must be to very publicly confront and expose the radical nutjobs to the whole world, and shout from the rooftops that these insufferable, hateful, nasty wymyn are no longer welcome in the Demonrat Party.

Throw down that gauntlet and he wins, because everyone who is NOT an insane lunatic Leftist wymyn will cling to him like a life preserver.

But if he backs down, he and his party are doomed to ride the hippy Leftist VW Microbus all the way to oblivion.

And that’s how it’s gonna go, because Greasey Gavin doesn’t have the sack to take on the Demme Fatales of his own party 😁

i would suggest that these transgender beings have their own leagues, sports, and locker rooms. that would be fair and accommodating. it would be expensive, however, so we should put them in close proximity to each other–say a huge single complex. and because their egos are so very fragile, maybe provide padded rooms for their comfort and yes, to keep them secure, how about big electric fences so no one can intrude on their lives?

PERFECT!

“it would be expensive, however, so we should put them in close proximity to each other–say a huge single complex.”

____________

I would very publicly appoint their chief defender, whoever that may be, and make him (or almost certainly, her) morally and financially responsible for all of the expense. Put the onus on the loudest mouth of their proponents.

Then watch the loudest mouth go quiet and run away like a scalded dog.

Then move on to the next harpy who loves to virtue-signal their insanity, and say “I support and defend your right to bear the burden and the cost for these people, for whom you will not condone or allow treatment to make them well again.”

And keep going right on down the line, until every mouth is stopped.

Everything about the Left is lies and hypocrisy. The moment the windmills block their scenic view, the moment the alien invaders defile their precious Martha’s Vineyard, the moment the cost has to come out of their backside, all their virtue melts away like a blowtorch on a drop of dew.

And everybody knows… 😁

We could also give them Gail’s cuddle dog.

Newsom thought he was making a smart pivot — positioning himself as the reasonable, nuanced Democrat who could win over moderates ahead of 2028. Instead, his own party proved Charlie Kirk’s point for him. The second Newsom deviated from the official script, they didn’t debate him—they canceled him.

I have a different take. Newsom is separating himself from the wacko Left which I believe is his intended strategy. He, I assume, can do arithmetic. While the wacko Left is loud and squeaky, they are very limited in numbers. I would wager there are millions of Democrats looking for an alternative to a Progressive nutcase. I actually think he may be adopting a useful approach. It is reminiscent of Bobby Kennedy Jr. He attracted a lot of Dems and Independents before his campaign was scuttled by the DNC, many of those supporters he brought to MAGA. I advise any GOP strategist to think deeply about Newsom before dismissing his ambitions as unattainable. It is amazing how a few visits to Joe Rogan or Tucker Carson can make a politician seem practical, popular, and prudent.

Gail Combs

Yup, he is able to LEARN. That is a very dangerous trait in a Progressive.

But he was just speaking to his audience. His actual policies are full woke as far as I saw in the last article I read about him.

This is indicative of what is coming this fall.

There is going to be a very nasty, very vicious, and bloody civil war inside the dim party as it attempts to “get ready” for the 2026 mid-terms. Moderates (or those pretending to be moderates) will challenge the lunatics for control of the party.

Like I’ve said, sooner or later the freaks are gonna get shoved back into their closets. It is now only a matter of time. 🤷‍♂️

scott467

From the same article:

…………………………………
“The gold standard for how not to do mass poultry vaccination comes courtesy of a little pharmaceutical disaster called Marek’s disease — a chicken virus that used to be about as scary as the common cold. But in the 1970s, government-prodded farmers rolled out a leaky vaccine, meaning it didn’t provide sterilizing immunity—it just stopped chickens from dying while still letting the virus spread.

comment image

The lamentable result was, instead of snuffing out the disease as promised, the vaccine transformed Marek’s into an unstoppable monster. The germ mutated into multiple ultra-lethal strains, which would have quickly burned out in an unvaccinated herd (since dead hosts don’t spread much), but thanks to the magic of half-baked vaccination, those hyper-virulent strains thrived.

To this day, unvaccinated chickens drop dead from Marek’s within ten days of being exposed. The virus won. The chickens — and we — lost. But at least Big Pharma got a permanent customer base. Great job, $cience.

This evolutionary train wreck proved what should be painfully obvious by now: if you stop symptoms but not transmission, you’re not stopping the virus—you’re turning it into a supervillain. Leaky vaccines don’t “protect.” They breed stronger enemies. (Yes, for covid, too.)

Instead of solving Marek’s, the FDA locked chickens into permanent vaccine dependencyevery new generation must be vaccinated, or they face instant death. And now, bureaucrats want to throw the dice again, but this time with bird flu, which has far more potential to jump to humans.

What could possibly go wrong?

Before you ask, not one of the articles about Kennedy’s decision mentioned the Marek’s disease disaster. Not one. But why would they? Because informing people was never the point. They’re protecting the narrative.

Instead of using the obvious and on-point Marek’s example, media just quoted a bunch of unchallenged Chicken Little scientists who called Kennedy names. You really don’t hate the corporate media enough.
…………………………………

Sounds like what they had planned / hoped for us with chyna virus and the covid shots.

Trump’s would-be assassin Ryan Routh’s ‘highly unusual’ move ahead of release of ‘suspicious’ FBI report
Defense lawyers for would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh quietly visited the president’s private golf course in West Palm Beach last month.
The visit was carried out in secret on February 25 and is only now just coming to light.
The tour was confirmed in newly revealed court filings and first reported by CBS News, as Routh’s defense team prepares for a federal trial this September for plotting to take Donald Trump‘s life during a golf outing.

EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE

Verse of the Day for Monday, March 10, 2025

“And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” 

Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV)

Commentary for Jeremiah 29

Two letters to the captives in Babylon; In the first, they are recommended to be patient and composed. (1-19) In the second, judgments are denounced against the false prophets who deceived them. (20-32)1-7 The written word of God is as truly given by inspiration of God as his spoken word. The zealous servant of the Lord will use every means to profit those who are far off, as well as those who are near him. The art of writing is very profitable for this end; and by the art of printing it is rendered most beneficial for circulating the knowledge of the word of God. God’s sending to the captives by this letter would show that he had not forsaken them, though he was displeased, and corrected them. If they live in the fear of God, they may live comfortably in Babylon. In all conditions of life, it is our wisdom and duty not to throw away the comfort of what we may have, because we have not all we would have. They are directed to seek the good of the country where they were captives. While the king of Babylon protected them, they must live quiet and peaceable lives under him, in all godliness and honesty; patiently leaving it to God to work deliverance for them in due time.

Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.

I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.

Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.

With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.

Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. 

Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

THE HURTING HEART

From your heart a secret will be revealed
A proclamation that will be unsealed
Are you ready to live and love again 
Or are you still stuck in paralyzing pain

Is your heart so broken it cannot heal
Are you guided greatly by what you feel
Are you frustrated or fearful to try
To break out of your prison and just fly

When you reach out to another do you
Cautiously contact in auspicious ado
While thinking inside it will lead nowhere
Impossible for anyone to care

Until you are willing to take a leap
Your hurting heart you are bound to keep
Forget all the feelings of days gone by
And quit driving yourself dizzy asking why

Over time the heart has mended and healed
You need not put up a protective shield
The past is gone you can never change it 
No matter what you do to rearrange it

What is new can’t be compared to the old
Your experience now cannot be foretold
With each revelation comes enticement
With each step forward the excitement

So if you are coddling a hurting heart
You’ve defeated God’s purpose from the start
His Word says it’s not good to be alone
Nor is it right for love to be unknown

WALLFLOWER

COME DANCE WITH ME

Sitting and waiting a long while for you
What is a wallflower supposed to do
Ladies in waiting for possibilities 
Scrutinizing probabilities

They strut their stuff just to simply impress
As if that is all one needs to address
Is there motion and movement maneuver
Do his eyes express he will approve her

Does he glide and guide her to ecstasy 
For all to observe so powerfully
Is there a flow to their core connection
Without a doubt in their glow reflection

The look in the eye conveys but a clue 
Of whether the bond is actually true
The caress of a partner oh so fine
Is hard to determine or deft define

Come Dance with Me to definitely see
If there is an attachment tween you and me
The dance will decide what is meant to be
An apt audition unexpectedly 

Can you see the majesty of the dance
Tis not just two bodies about to prance
The eloquent flow and abandonment
With each subsequent step and increment

Come Dance With Me until the morning light
Let’s see what develops throughout the night
Whatever will be will be once again
As our spirits unite where love will reign

D01: 06/08/2023

YOU MAKE ME SMILE

 

My first thought in the morning is of God;
Asking His blessings – for me – is not odd;
What is odd and quite perplexing to me;
Is the smile on my face when I think of Thee!

What comes to mind in Morning Prayer?
With each petition – through each layer;
The joy experienced when reminded;
The truth exposed – no longer blinded!

Thank You, Lord, for opening my eyes;
For helping me see – for making me wise;
For sending me – a great gift in disguise;
Someone to respect – a friend to advise!

You touched my heart where others could not;
You accepted my help – without a thought;
You laughed at my jokes – though silly they are;
You welcomed my friendship – from near and afar!

You challenged my knowledge – and added to it;
You carefully connected the dots adrift;
You made me wonder ‘bout God and His plan;
To where it would lead – from whence it began!

You gave me a place – to pray and to love;
You prayed with me – stayed with me – above;
Together we lifted up many a friend;
And brought forth God’s blessings to that end!

How can I thank you – what more can I say;
You make me smile each and every day;
What can I do for you – to ease your mind?
How can I thank you for being so kind?

If I asked God to bless you – would that be enough?
Gee Whiz…giving back to you – is terribly tough;
What can I say when I am lost for words?
Expressly refrain from sliding backwards!

What can I do to end this quandary?
As I open my heart – and air my laundry?
So humble and sweet is your heart, my dear;
It’s nearly impossible for me, I fear!

Perhaps, I will ask Our Father above;
If He will shower you with His love;
Send comforting angels to hold you gently;
Sing you their songs – calm you contently!

Warrior angels I’ll ask God to send;
To protect you – fight for you – to the end;
May the Holy Spirit chide you each day;
With knowledge and wisdom to guide your way!

In my Evening Prayer, I think of you;
I thank God sincerely for all you do;
As I end my prayer and end my day;
You make me smile – it just won’t go away!

Marco Rubio
@marcorubio
After a 6 week review we are officially cancelling 83% of the programs at USAID.

The 5200 contracts that are now cancelled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States.

In consultation with Congress, we intend for the remaining 18% of programs we are keeping (approximately 1000) to now be administered more effectively under the State Department. 

Thank you to DOGE and our hardworking staff who worked very long hours to achieve this overdue and historic reform.

Valerie Curren

Excellent!

Gail Combs

And yet they still funded USAID!

Thomas Massie
@RepThomasMassie
I predicted this (see below). The CR is a UNIPARTY deal. It doesn’t fund the wall. It does fund USAID. The democrats depart for a retreat on Wednesday, so they’ve already agreed to provide enough votes to pass the CR. Meanwhile, our election mandate will wane by this coming Sept.
Thomas Massie

@RepThomasMassie
I’m concerned that the House and Senate will fully fund USAID in March, just like we did in December (I voted No). The argument from Republican leadership will be that they need Democrat votes to pass an omnibus (or CR) bill to avoid a government shutdown.

Gail Combs

I am afraid Massie is correct. HOWEVER POTUS Trump can VETO and that means in both the Houses  need 2/3 to override the veto.

So what has happened?

#1 The American public has been SHOWN why we need a border wall. According to Rasmussen Reports, 73% of likely U.S. voters approve of the decision to allow more border wall construction, including 48% who strongly approve.

#2. The American public has been SHOWN that USAID is nothing more than a $$$ Laundromat. According to a Rasmussen poll conducted online by Scott Rasmussen on February 13-14, 2025, 42% of voters have favorable opinions of USAID.

 Daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 51% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-eight percent (48%) disapprove.

I think if POTUS stands his ground and does VETO that bill, The ReBOOBs will be in a hard place because A LOT of the RINOS would have to show their true colors. This will hopefully open them up to a primary challenge.

Also if there is a government shutdown, the people will be show we really do not NEED all that ‘government’

Remember POTUS Trump is a master at owning the downside.

TradeBait2

I pray you are correct. No more pork – forever. Defeats the purpose of DOGE.

patfrederick

EXACTLY!
they will always find a reason they HAVE to use a CR if you enable them to do so at the outset.

kalbokalbs

B O N U S, assuming Trump vetoes the CR.

If the government shuts down, Only essential show for work.
DOGE can further target Non Essential Deadwood on federal dole.   :banana-mario:   :banana-mario: 

Downside. IIRC, Trump has requested R-con solidarity to pass CR.

  • Trump will sign CR. Figure ways to NOT pay for already identified FW&A.
  • Lawyers can fight it out in court, further exposing Uniparty shitheads.
GA/FL

We need Line Item Veto!

Perhaps after 2026 mid terms.

Donkey’s Discord: A Dirge for Decorum
 
In chambers grand where power sits,
You Democrats, you pompous twits,
Did sneer and jeer with childish glee,
Trying to cut Trump off at his knees.
 
The man stood tall, his voice rang clear,
A nation’s course for all to hear,
But you, with scowls and bitter spite,
Made mockery of this sacred rite.
 
Your boos, your hisses, shrill and low,
A tantrum’s tide, a petty show,
No grace, no class, just bile unleashed,
Your dignity so sorely breached.
 
Trump spoke of strength, of borders tight,
Of jobs reborn, of future bright,
Yet you, with hearts of stone and gall,
Preferred to bicker, curse, and stall.
 
Oh, Party of the Donkey’s bray,
Your manners rot, your souls decay,
To shun respect, to scoff and scorn,
Your legacy of shame is born.
 
The world did watch, the people saw,
Your rancor broke decorum’s law,
For Trump, sincere, deserved his due,
Not spit from fools that failed a coup.
 
So here’s to you, ye craven crew,
Your disrespect shall mark you true,
A stain upon your putrid name,
Eternal in the halls of shame.

God’s Garden
 
Through petals soft and colors bright,
I wander in the morning light,
A symphony of blooms unfolds,
Their fragrance sweet, fresh and bold.
 
The breeze, a whisper, dances free,
Caressing leaves on every tree,
It hums a tune, so light, so gay,
A gentle push to guide my way.
 
The sky above, a boundless blue,
With cotton clouds that drift and skew,
A canvas vast, where dreams take flight,
Bathed in gold by sun’s delight.
 
The pond reflects the heavens’ glow,
A mirror calm, where ripples flow,
The ducks glide smooth, their quacks resound,
A playful splash, a joyful sound.
 
A squirrel darts, a fleeting blur,
Through grass that hums with life astir,
The bees, they buzz, a honeyed choir,
In nature’s glow, they never tire.
 
The air is laced with scents so pure,
Of rose and lilac, soft allure,
A breath of earth, so rich, so green,
A living world, calm and serene.
 
All nature speaks from God’s own Hand,
To gift us walking through His land,
And oh, this day, a perfect day
All because God made it this way.

Likely causes are (not in rank order)

a. the EU is stealing the election in Romania and are currently getting away with it though clashes with govt troops are growing.

b. the massacres in Syria are also intensifying or at least the reporting of it on twitter is. Lots of gruesome things being posted there and the claims are that your seeing just a small fraction of it. Meanwhile Turkish installed puppet with permission from EU Elites is claiming that it’s Assad loyalists doing false flags. Doesn’t wash what so ever.

c. Kursk is falling fast.

d. Most everything else twitter is bringing in the form of news.

para59r

Domestically I’m sure we’d have another list but I’m seeing a trend of twitter folk exposing the call for Trump to be removed from office by leftist retards and leftist retards are posting there on the same. I’m sure Blue Sky and Mastodon are firing off as many posts as possible in the interim.

Will have to see/search if there is a trending post on twitter on the reasons for twitter shut downs next time it resurfaces to get a more accurate read on the situation.

Also a more likely issue is the current CR. Vote is tomorrow and it must pass by Friday or partial shut downs begin.

There was a question regarding Steve Kirsch’s eye issue.
His most recent post on this situation is here:
https://kirschsubstack.com/p/could-dmso-drops-restore-my-vision
13 November 2024
Yours Truly: Mr. Kirsch has lost the vision in his right eye. This was due to a type of retinal hemorrhage. Mr. Kirsch is “fully vaccinated.” The hemorrhage occurred after his “vaccinations.” There is a large amount of blood that is “sticking” to the vitreous chamber of this eye. His eye specialists recommended against using DMSO drops, and instead recommended an operation called a vitrectomy.
Below is from page 8 of the BNT162b2 Postmarketing Experience report that Pfizer-BioNTech gave to the FDA in April 2021. This report is only one of the thousands of documents on BNT162b2 that this company, ALONG WITH THE FDA, tried to have SEALED for 75 years. They were taken to court and they lost. Thank God.
The 2021 report is here: https://phmpt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/5.3.6-postmarketing-experience.pdf

PAVACA, Thank you for researching this and posting.

Pfizer, including scientists and executives have got to be held accountable for what they’ve done to Americans, as well as citizens around the Globe. Accountability also extends to governments.

Are yours that tiny for your business?

Gail Combs

No I have standard size Shetlands (40 inches) up Haflingers, (54 inches – Max allowed by Insurance)

My biggest haflinger/Quarter horse cross weighed 1200 pounds. That is more than my full size horses!

At the very end you can see the pony with a haflinger.

The miniature horse is in the Shetland Stud book BTW. I knew the guy who developed them. I bought 4 of my Shetlands from him.

I should add that ‘Pony’ is a height designation only. anything under 58 inches. The height limit for Shetland ponies is set at 42 inches for standard ponies, and 34 inches for miniature Shetlands. Just like dog breeds have height limits for toy miniture and standard.

OMG, I may have told this story before.

Caesar was a white pony at the Girl Scout Horse camp I attended one summer.

Maybe 48″. He knew how to let himself out of his stall.

He used to terrorize younger riders by attempting to shave their left leg off by careening into the riding ring fence.

I was tired of it, so I got on him one afternoon and rode him counter clockwise.

He could not figure out how to reverse his craft.

Worked. Every time we had little Girl Scouts on him, we had him go counter-clockwise.

Treason Doesn’t Pay Well In The End, When Do You Attack The King? Time Is Almost Up – Ep. 3591

The [DS][CB] are now building the narrative that Trump is going to bring the country into a recession. The [CB] only has a small window to blame him, big fai. The country is already in a recession and this is why Trump is getting ahead of the story. Manufacturing jobs are already coming back to the US. Trump needs the CR to carry out the golden age plan. The [DS] is panicking, they know Elon and DOGE are getting closer on how they launder the money, actually they already know they are dripping the info out so the [DS] players feel pain. The [DS] will fight back but it will fail in the end because treason doesn’t pay well. Trump put out a pic of him and Elvis, is he pointing to the king? When do you attack the king? Time is almost up for the [DS].

The White House Speaks
 
I am the White House, walls of gleaming stone,
A witness to history, a nation’s home.
Through years of clamor, I’ve stood proud and tall,
But oh, what delight now echoes my halls!
 
Melania’s back—my heart beams with cheer,
A gracious First Lady, once more dwelling here.
Her elegance glides through my corridors wide,
A quiet strength, a beauty I can’t hide.
 
The chandeliers sparkle, their glow more bright,
For she brings a stillness that feels just right.
No garish clamor, no fleeting fuss,
Just poise and dignity—she’s marvelous!
 
My gardens blush with a tender bloom,
Her care revives them from winter’s gloom.
She tends to my spaces, both grand and small,
A hostess supreme for each state-held ball.
 
The china gleams, the linens align,
Her taste, impeccable, makes every room shine.
I’ve missed her voice, that soft-spoken grace,
A calming presence in this bustling place.
 
She champions children, their dreams she lifts high,
With “Be Best” echoing beneath my sky.
Her kindness ripples through every floor,
A First Lady’s touch I’ve longed for once more.
 
Diplomats visit, and I stand with pride,
As she greets them warmly, my doors flung wide.
A beacon of style, a global delight,
She carries my name through day and night.
 
The world sees her charm, her effortless way,
And I, the White House, bask in her sway.
My pillars hum with a joyful tune,
For Melania’s return is a treasured boon.
 
Through every window, my spirit takes flight,
She’s back, she’s back—my soul’s pure delight!
A partner, a mother, a lady so rare,
Fills my old bones with love beyond compare.
 
So here I stand, on this hill so grand,
Rejoicing in her, us hand in hand.
For Melania’s grace, her strength, her care,
Makes me, the White House, a home debonair.
 
Welcome back, oh, how I’ve missed you
Your presence outshines gold’s bright hue.
Welcome back, dear one, my heart’s decree,
With you as First Lady, I’m truly free.

A few days ago I mentioned several things.

A) Avoiding drawdowns was a fundamental key to building wealth.
B) Like learning how to fly, anyone can learn how to profitably manage their own investment portfolio
C) The internet is a wise person’s library.

The problem is, people are lazy.

Here’s a true story…

Way back in the day, I was a flight instructor, building flight time (ie. “the true student is the teacher, not the student”). I was also the “ground instructor”. Learning to fly (read: getting a private pilot license…the first of a great many levels of licensing and ratings) is actually about 85% ground school, 15% actual flight training (ie. getting in a plane an actually flying it).

Every other month I would start a ground class. Ground class lessons took place every other week, and there were 9 ground classes in total.

I’d get around 15-20 people regularly show up for Lesson #1. Folks who had decided they “really wanted to learn how to fly” and get their PPL. And in that 1st class I would explain what was to come and would be expected by the FAA.

My goal and job was to help these folks reach their goal of learning to fly safely and earn their private pilot license. As you might expect, setting expectations and building trust is fundamentally key in this process. So I would explain that in order to qualify for testing for a PPL, they needed at least 40 hrs of flight time logged in their logbooks, and for every hour in an actual airplane, they would be expected to study…in the books…for approx. 10-12 hrs, because learning how to fly was far more about developing the knowledge and mental skills than developing their physical skills in flying an airplane. Then I would get into some technical aspects of flying…complex stuff that any pilot needs to know…in order to demonstrate why this is true.

Guess how many people would show up for class 2 weeks later? About 5. When they learned that actual STUDY & hitting the books was involved, the vast majority quit right then.

And of those remaining 5, we were doing great if 1 actually went all the way and actually earned their PPL (which consists of passing a 3 hr timed written exam, a 2+ hr oral exam with an examiner the student didn’t know, and a “check ride” with that same examiner in a plane where the applicant demonstrated all their skills, knowledge, and know-how).

The point is…

Learning how to successfully manage your own investments is no different than learning how to fly. You just have to put in the time to learn, and the internet is your library.

Trans vet gets government-paid vaginoplasty, then hangs himself a month later
https://revolver.news/2025/03/trans-vet-gets-government-paid-vaginoplasty-then-hangs-himself-a-month-later/

.
Excerpts:

A 2023 study from The Journal of AMA revealed that suicide risk is a whopping eight times higher for trans people. The study also found that trans individuals are up to five times more likely to die by suicide than the rest of the population.

comment image

The heartbreaking truth is that trans individuals aren’t taking their own lives because they were “born in the wrong body.” They are dying at alarming rates because so many of them are struggling with deep-seated mental illnesses that are being ignored, dismissed, or even encouraged under the fake claim of gender affirmation. Instead of receiving the psychological care these folks desperately need, they’re being rushed into irreversible medical procedures by profit-hungry vultures and a political machine that sees them as nothing more than helpless pawns in a cultural war.

This is a massive failure of the medical community, which has totally abandoned its duty to heal in favor of politics and government funding. And the consequences are absolutely devastating. These suffering human beings aren’t being saved—they’re being turned into symbols, into memes, into martyrs for a cause that exists only in their confused minds and in the pockets and power plays of political and professional operatives.

What’s unfolding is a twisted and disgusting display of left-wing politics at its darkest and most sinister, and the memes are now reality.

Let’s be real—a system that truly cared would treat the actual cause of their suffering—not exploit them for ideology and financial gain. But until that happens, the cycle of pain will continue, and more lives will be lost in the name of yet another left-wing lie.

They were talking about it on the radio. Two clowns that have Rush’s spot. They say a Pro Hamas group called Dark Storm is claiming responsibility.

BS. If Hamas by themselves had that capability they would of done it long before. Right now no big Hamas news is in the News. If Hamas has signed up for this claiming of responsibility it is about the them supporting the unholy alliance of the New Turkey/EU backed regime in Syria that is currently conducting mass killings against minority Shia, Druse and Christians and blaming it on Assad loyalists. The EU has just granted a permission in some confab to the new Syrian puppet master. This is the Syrian Puppet Master, Turkey & the EU who has much to gain in this, (mainly silence news on Romania & Kursk along with the on going genocide)

The EU invited the terrorist Al-Qaeda leader of Syria, who recently massacred hundreds of Christians, to Brussels for a donor conference on March 17

By the way, this means they legally can’t even talk about what they already know with people that have the appropriate clearances (even though the de-clearanced person wouldn’t learn anything new from the conversation).

I knew someone who was in that situation for a couple of days while his clearance was being transfered from one employer to the other. I joked that he was in the situation of having to say, “I could tell you but then I’d have to kill myself.” He didn’t find it funny.

Hmmm.

Perhaps the point is really to blind them to upcoming matters and keep them in the dark. It also means that those WITH security clearances cannot share what they know with these individuals.

So clearly someone’s balls are in a vice. There was some long term agreement in place, and when Trump cut off the funds, the people receiving the funds (the actual criminals, nobody in Bangladesh will ever see a dime) made a credible threat to the puppets that be.

So the puppets did what they always do. They’ll just throw other people’s money at the problem.
