“Cuddly?” They’re kidding, right?
MEMES and FUN STUFF
Story of my life…especially with Illinois drivers. They are rude and drive way too fast.
My mother, the late grammar nazi, would say, right before the at…and there is no verb in that sentence.
Are there really any others? Okay, yeah, several, but the technical issues with the way she sings just giver her away.

How are conditions? CV seems to be concerned.
So far OK. The eye seems to be around Fayetteville. Right now we do not have much rain but CV is getting plastered.
Unfortunately the storm will rotate so we will probably get plastered again.😫
So she is in the Cape Fear River drainage?
California has such a strange drainage situation (everything in the middle of the state has to flow out past San Francisco) that the Atlantic Coast barely makes sense.
Here is a map of our rivers. We have a LOT! And many drain directly into the Atlantic.
So many beautiful rivers.
I won’t be able to really study them until I’m there and can see them. Book-larnin’ only gets you so far.
departure date set?
Within a week of:
(a) I win the lottery,
(b) this house burns down,
(c) this house destroyed by earthquake,
(d) Fiancee comes to her senses,
or (e) Fiancee drops dead.
in other words, never 🙁 unless the clot shot takes out your lady love 🙁
There are a variety of options under (d), but the timing of the other options is not under my control.
d would be best for sure 🙂
B and E are the most entertaining, unless smart thinking is applied to change D. 😉
old dog, new tricks, not likely 😉
Come, come. You’ve surely watched enough British TV to realize that B and E are the only things over which you have control. But since those are not MORAL options, you need to change D with just as much cunning as you would need for B or E.
If you build it, she will come.
If you STOP building the current it, she will LEAVE.
Time to make a plan, then execute it. A plan for the good of you both! You may go through some rough moments in the middle, but THAT is why men exist.
ITA. If the plan doesn’t have to involve selling current home to purchase the next it opens up the dream. Buy cheap, rural..cash if possible and own it outright. If there’s some type of structure already there, remodeling won’t cost an arm and leg for permits.
I was talking with my insurance people while making sure I did not have more insurance than needed. She said the cost of building materials is still very high. On the other hand, I have no external structures except the mailbox. Still they give me “free” insurance for external structures. So, I have free insurance to cover a $61k mailbox.
Yeah the cost of everything sky high! Good on you for your insurance situation.
I go into 2 Habitat for Humanity stores here a lot and it’s gobsmacking the things a crafty guy could use, beautiful cabinets, old doors, plantation shutters, tile, etc.
Ultimatums are a last recourse.
Next to last recourse. The last recourse is waiting till she’s away, gathering what you cannot bear to leave, and go go go.
I’m not talking “ultimatums”. Yes, those are both a last recourse and stupid. Ultimatums require the other party to consent, react, or engage in some way. NO. Begin to present fait accomplis which define all acceptable futures.
Simply act. In ways that the other party’s interests will be both predictable, and ultimately beneficial for them, whatever they choose.
I’m talking ACTION, and make the woman deal. Cover the downside (which in this case is moving, and she does not, then finding a new and better fiance).
This is a WIN-WIN approach. At least, it would be for me.
Striking out as a scout – no permission asked – no asking to be forgiven, either.
Generally, I find, when men “man up”, women respect it. They push weak men around, but defer to strong men – including those who leave and find better women.
Actually that is what I meant but I probably should have said “take decisive action.”
Given the mess California is in, getting out NOW has become more and more urgent. Both from a financial position and from a safety position.
…
As a woman, I can surmise she feels safe in HER home and the idea of moving across country is frightening to some extent. You are also dealing with sheer inertia.
Anticipating having to move to Germany was a frightening experience for me.
Coothie can ease her into the move more slowly by taking molly’s advice and ‘buying a fixer-upper ‘Vacation home.’
Also that home will feel like hers and she will get to know people.
That’s a good, non-threatening term for it – “taking decisive action”!!! And exactly what needs to be done.
“ THAT is why men exist.”
born for the battle
sometimes with the battleax!
Coothie,
At least I had better luck. Hubby had never really lived outside of the Boston are except for college, but was quite willing to move to NC after we took a trip down here to scout ot the place.
Many in the North think it is Southern HICKS but we have two cities with a high number of Phds
50 U.S. Cities with the Most Doctoral Degree Holders
36. Durham, North CarolinaAs per estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau covering 2008 to 2012, 46.6 percent of Durham, North Carolina’s inhabitants aged 25 and up had earned a bachelor’s degree or above. Moreover, 4.6 percent of the 2012 population – placed at 239,633 – held doctorates.
34. Cary, North CarolinaHeadquartered in Cary, North Carolina, the Statistical Analysis System (SAS) Institute pulled in a staggering total revenue of just over $3 billion in 2013. That same year, the software company had 5,131 people from the area in its employment – possibly including more than a few who possess a doctorate. SAS CEO Jim Goodnight is himself a Ph.D. holder, having achieved this postgraduate degree at North Carolina State University in Raleigh. Aside from its proximity to North Carolina State, Cary is also very close to Duke University in Durham and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In 2012 the city had an estimated total population of 145,794, and 4.7 percent of those people held doctoral degrees.
The Fiancee seems to love the house (that I extensively remodeled and rebuilt) more than she loves me.
While most of the constraints and limitations of what I have done to this place are because it’s here. If I had this same house on five acres in another state, I could add a private spa, quilting studio, and substantial storage — and it wouldn’t cost a freakin’ arm-and-leg in property taxes.
You can now do virtual tours of houses. Find ones you think she might like and do a sales pitch. include local goodies like close to….
The problem is that I’ve made this house very nice. Mind you, every time I had a possible improvement she kvetched through the planning and freaked-out after demo — but I have built the nicest house in the area.
Which she has proceeded to ill-maintain and abuse. I spend substantial time repairing things she has broken or abandoned.
And I have come to utterly loathe and despise this place. None of my favorite reasons to be in Silicon Valley exist any more, and all of my creations in this house are wrecked.
Having my possessions stolen was just another reminder that I am not welcome here — this is not fertile soil for my efforts to bring fruit.
That’s so sad on multiple fronts. I’m sorry that you & your efforts are not being appropriately appreciated 🙁 🙁 🙁
Good grief, she should have to live with my Hubby for a year!
Nice Guy, but as his brother said, I will hire a …. I want it done some time THIS CENTURY!
Nice 😉
Sticking my nose into this convo…have you thought about looking for the worst house in your favorite location for a vacation house? It would give you lots of time to be creative with fixing it up, a place to get some R & R. Fiance could come when she felt inclined
You Are Brilliant.
😍
Let me know if you want me to do any scouting after you have found the area you want and possible properties.
If you do not HAVE to work, Do what I did, figure out where the price drops like a rock. It is usually about an hours commute from then nearest industrial center/city/Univ
Yup. And pick a place very close to where she would TRANSFER to her new government job in NC.
The Fiancee selected NC after we had both spent some time there. Unfortunately, she wasn’t sincere.
Well, if you move there into some cheap fixer-upper near where she would need to transfer, and you’re fixing THAT place instead of your current one, she has an interesting choice that will shift in your favor over time. She can be where the fixing is, or not.
Yes, NC is a wonderful state. LOTS to visit and see.
The Fiancee was tasked to open a branch office of her Silicon Valley company to run tech support in the Eastern Time Zone. She spent many weeks out there in the Triad — and I flew out and tooled around the state.
[She set the office set up nicely, and got it running, and a couple of corporate actions eliminated the tech support site and merged her company into its dominant competitor.]
She generally stayed in Greensboro, so I’ve seen a lot of High Point and Winston-Salem. I’ve been to Charlotte, and Raleigh, and Cary. I’ve been to Asheboro and Asheville and Hickory, and over the hill to my aunt’s place in Knoxville and back (and Pigeon Forge).
One of my peregrinations had me returning from the Triangle out across some country to somewhere around Asheboro — I think it may have been US64 (but it might well have been NC27) and I was just captivated by how green and beautiful it was.
California hills are green for about six weeks, and are brown the other 10-1/2 months of the year. I was zipping along, trying to get back before dark, and the countryside was gorgeous and the hills were full of trees. I imagine that Gail lives in such a place.
YUP!
My girl friend is from AZ and IA, she LOVES looking at the hills and the trees. Starting late Feb when the Daffys start showing it is BLOOM BLOOM BLOOM… I love the various delicate shades of trees as the trees start to leaf out. And the red, yellow & white haze from the tiny tree blossoms.
Right now the red bud trees are blooming. 😄
Our red bud tree bloomed in the spring & it’s all leafed out now.
Ours are leafed but blooming.
OOPS they are Crape Myrtles. I was told they were red buds. 🙄 Ours are volunteers.
They come in a variety of colors and sizes
Some of the National Arboretum hybrids you may be familiar with are:
Muskogee – to 30’ – light lavender flower – red orange fall color
Tuscarora – to 20’ – dark coral pink flower – red orange fall color
Natchez – to 30’ – white flower – cinnamon colored trunk – yellow to red to orange fall color
Arapaho – 20-30’ – true red flower – maroon tinged leaves
Fantasy – 25-40’ – white flower, fragrance emits a sweet nectar for bees, cinnamon trunk
If you do not have the space for a 20 or 30 foot tree try using one of the shrub or dwarf varieties.
Chickasaw – 1-3’ shrub – light lavender pink
Chica – 2-4’ shrub – deep red
Pokomoke – 3-5’ shrub – deep rose pink
Hopi – 5-10’ large shrub – clear light pink
Dynamite – 6-8’ dense shrub – true red
Acoma – 6-10’ – white flowers – semi- dwarf weeping habit
Catawba – 8-10’ – violet purple – dense shrub
I was gonna say. Red buds are a spring thing for blooming.
But these other things look interesting!
They are quite pretty, fast growing and very welcome since they are blooming now when most perennials have gone by.
PHOTOS
We have a crape myrtle.
I remember the crepe myrtles when I lived in Tulsa, quite lovely! You’re blessed some showed up in your yard!
When I have the chance I grab seeds from trees of different colors than I have that I see on my trips. Now I have to find a good place to plant them.
Are the seeds in the flowers? They’re all over the place here, I could get some too
I have never seen anything resembling a crape myrtle spring up from the piles of flowers we’ve had every year. I suspect that our tree is a sterile hybrid.
They get a fruit the size of a cherry pit. That is what I grab. Now I just have to select a place and find the time to plant them.
I used to have a 100 house plants and a nice garden when I lived up north. Down here I just have not had the time for a garden too.
That’s a great idea!
Coothie
Thank you.
Torrential rains since about Midnight last night. The wind is also now blowing hard. Tornado Watch until at least 1PM today. Flood Warning until at least 4PM today. Local weather is saying up to 9 inches total between late last night into last Friday night.
Got about 3 hours’ sleep last night, between one thing and another related to bad weather prep, monitoring rainfall via the radio, etc.
At least one tornado has hit areas south of Raleigh.
Trees are starting to fall, everywhere in this area. This is my biggest concern. There are “short root system” pine trees all over the place. They’re in every yard around here, including mine.
Roads and streets are flooding, and/or have high standing water, and/or have fallen trees on them.
The power has snapped off, then back on, several times. I expect complete power outage by around 1PM today, if not earlier.
The place where I live abuts a public-private golf course. A tributary stream of the Eno River runs along the edge. The golf course and the stream are starting to flood. The Eno River will likely be a flood stage by early this afternoon. Other rivers in the area, like the Neuse River and the Tar River, are also pretty close to flood stage.
I’m holding tight so far. Have supplies for at least several days if the power goes completely out.
Here’s a photo of the golf course and the stream (“Sevenmile Creek”) taken from the bedroom window about an hour ago:
Please Stay safe. And yes TREES are my biggest worry. Luckily I moved all the ponies into the center paddocks away from the trees a couple days ago. Same with the sheep. The house, out buildings (and Goats) are the only things the trees can hit.
Thank you, dear De Pat, for a thoughtful and thorough Thursday post.
I wonder if Walz and his red hammer have ever visited Nancy’s hubby.
Likely frequent like establishments.
Hoe and Woe, I can’t go…… (stolen valor)
Her outfits always covered her legs. She needs to button that jacket 😬
Hoe is progressive. Progressively looking like hildabeast.
WELL, they did it with the slavery issue so why not the Clotshot?
🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩🐂💩
I bet those shirts and hats were GIVEN to the crowd just as the signs were GIVEN to the crowd. MAGA buys their gear. They also are not BRIBED with an ALL STAR entertainment cast.
I’m impressed. It looks just like a Trump event except there’s no red hats.
Yea, I’m also impressed.
D-Rat voters, assuming they vote, attend for the concert aspect.
THAT aspect is hugely unreported. Needs highlighting.
Harri-Walz the concert crashers
SMART!
Taking notes.
Wolverines!
Great answer, but what a bizarre question to ask.
It’s a “fear question” for the Dem fold and their losable independents.
To them, Walz is “cuddly” and Vance looks like a scary redneck.
Who is a good character at Lake Wobegon? Cuddly liberal Tim Walz, of course! He fits right in!
posted wrong spot
I guess, I do not fit the Dem profile. Walz looks scary to me not Vance. Of course he looks a lot like most of my neighbors who are great people. 🤓
Exactly. But BEWARE!!!
The Dem profile is what spreads and takes over when AWFULs find a “charming” rural or small town community and move into it. AWFULs (many of whom are lesbians) love “traditional” communities, free of crime, after their youth in more urban areas, which they themselves helped to blight with their tolerance of crime, mental illness, and politically correct corruption. The rainbow flag follows them. Their preference for WEAK MEN comes with them.
We are well aware of that. Unfortunately the nearby tow is a member of ICLEI (International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives) now called ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability.
If a tire needs changed, a toilet needs unclogged, or a teenager needs a come-to-Jesus, give me a scary hillbilly (J.D. is definitely a hillbilly) every time!
“Scary redneck” who wears well-fitting tailored suits, is well spoken, appears to be in good shape, is a family man, and served his country in the military. I guess any man who appears to have some testosterone is scary now.
YUP!!! “Toxic masculinity”!!!
The correct answer is Vance. Vance would help you. Walz wouldn’t even stop.
And if he did stop he would probably talk your ear off and do NOTHING…
OR
Drop dead of a heart attack. (He is Boosted isn’t he?)
Heck, I was the one who stopped and did the tire changing! In one case, I could not break the last nut loose. I actually got the State Trooper to do it for me after he told me he was not allowed to. 😂
When the gal’s brother finally showed just after I finished the tire change, I chewed him out for NOT teaching his sister how to do it herself.
His sister looked a lot like a young Sophia Loren, and should NOT have been left to the kindness of strangers!
Jack Posobiec:
Imagine the memes that could be made of Timmy attacking a pillow.
Mike Lindell’s been rather quiet recently. Hope Mike AND MyPillow are doing well.
I think he is having a hard time selling his products. After all there are only so many pillows, sheets & towells you can buy and they don’t wear out… except for the furry sheep skin slippers. HORRIBLE plastic soles with too much regrind/recycled plastic so they disintegrate in about a year. Happened to mine and is now happening to Hubby’s. I have the cheaper Non furry slippers and so far they are fine. Hubby wants another pair of the sheepskin type.
Maybe when we have the money we will get the bed topper.
Yup.
We’ve bought pillows for every bed, kids. Grands… Have sheets to outlet me.
As Steve opined about EVs, applies to My Pillow stuff.
-Folks that are gonna buy them, have done so.
Replacements way down the road.
I keep an eye on his website, but I can only buy so much.
If the Left cancel machine hadn’t exxed him off of big stores he’d be doing much better.
Ok, that’s it, now I’m PISSED!
Attacking Mike Lindell is the last straw!
England’s government is extremely gay/fascist.
Wishful thinking, or does he have evidence?
Maybe he’s referring to this.
I saw the same thing (“much worse is coming”) said by some MN-sounding normies on a stolen valor thread today!
Another politician with a beard for a wife. Imagine that.
Just think, they could compare notes about how to please men….
😂🥴🤢
OR he can tell us how to please a dog…
This has to be the worst pair ever nominated for the White House, other than Obama and Biden.
that’s not a bug, it’s a feature.
beware what might be coming
“Wait till reporters start asking the gay bar owners in Minnesota about Tim Walz.”
_____________
I wouldn’t wait for that.
Godot will show up before reporters ever ask those questions 😂
“There’s a reason why he shakes his wife’s hand…”
____________
Yeah, that’s not weird… 🤣
I don’t know if Tony has receipts for this:
If this is true, Tim Waltz not only betrayed the US, but the Chinese protestors at Tiananmen Square:
But I have been told that he is very cuddly.
He is. It’s just to dudes, not women.
I think Trump should call him Cuddles or maybe Mr. Cuddles. I believe that would catch on quickly if it came from Trump’s lips.
hahahahah I like it
Cuddles is too nice for Walz.
Trump will come up with something more fitting, 100% demeaning.
If Trump ever mentions it i bet he clobbers the media too for doing what they’re told..double whammy
Every day will be tears in America if this woman is elected.
There is NOTHING WORSE than a STUPID INCOMPETENT who takes out their frustration at being incompetent ON EVERYONE ELSE. That explains Sucalotacox’s staffer turn over.
Now add in Pol Pot type communism and you have a complete disaster!
Inserted, she’ll never be elected.
cabal installed if at all 😡
Hopefully This time it will be too big to rig!
Yup. And then the question is what we do about THAT.
Exactly, then it becomes what will they do to us who question?
WHY do you think they have the Supreme Court PUNT on the Government Censorship question???
Yeah not far behind the UK in that regard.
Leftists reaping the rewards of incompetence.
It’s like a preview of the America they’re voting for.
Dumb like rocks.
And they want someone who can not even organize a rally to be our President?
“Hide your kids.”
May be a hint of what’s coming.
“John Walz Gacy”?
I did read somewhere that Walz likes “twinks,” very young.
I guess we’ll see what comes out.
IIRC, Laura Loomer is pursuing Walz stuff.
She is. And whatever is there, she will find it.
Since Obama, Democrats select a VP who is so bad that no one wants to impeach (or assassinate) their president. It was hard to find someone worse than Kamala, but Tampon Tim fulfills that role.
I think it’s a humiliation ritual.
Obastid hates white people, that’s why he likes to have gay white men *&^% his &^$#. It’s a power thing, the most grotesque thing he could do to a white man.
This is the same thing.
Make a ridiculously incompetent and evil black woman (a minority) ruler over the large majority of the population — white people — with a white man as her subordinate, just in case the point wasn’t clear enough.
wicked black woman
wicked fake black woman
FIFY.
The longer you look at that, the better it gets.

It is interesting he starts with talking about video games. I while back I did a small comment on the Gamers tossing hissy fits because the WOKE gender benders were TARGETING the gaming industry. They actually had a ‘Consulting Group’ that was
contactingharassing all the different companies.TY
This was part of the big GamerGate thing, IIRC.
Yes it was.
It’s back up now, one of the links worked, I think it was the “August 8, 2024” link that worked.
Thx Scott 🙂
At around 40 minutes they talk about this case. (Jay) Jayanta Bhattacharya was told, although he had plenty of evidence that they were targeting HIS IDEAS, since he was not specifically NAMED by the government when they asked Social media to implement censorship, he had no standing.
So as long as the government CENSORS IDEAS it is now LEGAL. They just can not censor an INDIVIDUAL.
So Just like the 2nd Amendment and the right to protest, freedom of speech CAN NOW BE RESTRICTED by the government.

I guess since the Feds did not even bother with a law, it is now. A-OK to use CENSORSHIP in the USA. 😡

Good online friends—
Please spare a prayer for the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area. Torrential rain since 11PM last night. Expected to last until Friday. High winds starting. Flooding happening. Local weather says up to 9 inches of rain by Friday. I expect power outages any minute. Trees may start falling by Noon if this keeps up. Hope to Almighty God that Solas and I are safe and don’t have to make a run for it.
Thank you.
Are you above or below the fall line?
Specifically, much of Raleigh is drained by the Neuse river, which passes through the city. The falls of the Neuse are underwater due to a dam completed in 1981 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falls_Lake ). If you are in the Neuse drainage area, and more elevated than Falls Dam, you are unlikely to see severe flooding because it would overtop and breach the dam and flood the low country very badly.
I have frontage on one of the other rivers. Luckily the house is 100 ft above the flood plain. Unfortunately some of my neighbors were STUPID ENOUGH to build ON the flood plain near the river.
I have seen that area a good 3 feet or more under water.
I am more worried about trees. Esp the ones directly south of the house.
I could understand building barns, livestock shelters, and such in the flood plain. Houses? Garages? Not so much.
As my geology prof said. NEVER build in a river AND a flood plain IS PART OF THE RIVER, it is just the part that is not used very much.
The flood plain does make wonderful grazing and crop land though. All the very nice top soil that was on the top of my hill is now on the flood plain. I KNOW it is at least 2 1/2 feet of rich black soil from digging fence post holes.
In California, many residential areas are known as particular Valleys — I live in the Santa Clara Valley, I used to live in the Santa Clarita Valley, regions around LA are the San Fernando Valley, San Gabriel Valley, Walnut-Pomona Valley…..(and, then, there’s the “LA Basin”, which is a huge tell).
Luxury areas include the Hollywood Hills, Berkeley Hills, Oakland Hills, Los Altos, and such…..in Santa Barbara, it’s “La Mesa” and the Riviera.
I went to school in the mid-west. I made sure we built just down hill from the highest point. My Ex Father-in-law’s house was built in a similar situation and a LARGE tornado JUMPED over their house.😱
That will make a believer out of anybody.
I can remember standing at the window in the dorm and watching the funnel clouds form, touch down and then get sucked back up into the clouds.
North Carolina is nice. We get tornadoes, hurricanes, ice storms AND earthquakes.
Luckily it is not all that frequently for any of them.
Santa Clarita — the memories bubble up!
Newhall, Saugus, Valencia, Soledad Canyon, Bouquet Canyon, Castaic Junction, — all a big chunk of my younger years.
ThanQ for kicking the dusty old box. 🙂
I should note that one of the houses that sent my sister and I through college was built in Placerita Canyon. The (normally) dry wash cut off 20% of the back yard.
My dad, the civil engineer, built the slab foundation about two feet higher than was required by code. It also had a bunch of rebar in the slab.
One year, during the rainy season, a tree fell over into the wash about a quarter mile upstream from our house. That deflected the running water across the channel into some natural bank (adobe mud) on the opposite side, which eroded quite a bit……but then sent it back over to our side into our neighbor’s back yard which was built on fill.
It took out a substantial part of the rear 25′ of his fenced yard, including most of his horse corrals.
Coothie
Thank you. I replied to your earlier query above in the discussion thread. Basically, “the situation is rapidly deteriorating” around the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill areas and beyond.
The golf course and stream that edges it (a tributary of the Eno River) are starting to flood. Flood warning and tornado watches/warnings all over the place.
The trees are falling due to the high winds and the completely saturated ground. Trees falling is my main concern. Roads, streets closed all over the place. Local weather predicts up to 9 inches total of rain to fall until Friday afternoon. Local weather also monitoring the local rivers (Eno, Neuse, Tar among them.) Flood stage for these rivers will be reached by tomorrow morning to afternoon.
I expect complete power outage by around 1PM today.
So far, I’m holding tight. Only got about 4 hours’ sleep last night.
The storm is headed right thru the Piedmont. Wilmington to Fayetteville to Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill.
We are getting hit with waves of high wind & rain and then nothing.
My impression of the Piedmont is that it has substantially more hills than the major metropolitan valleys of California. Flooding would be restricted to those places very near creeks and streams.
OTOH, to my untrained Californian eye, it appears that much of the coastal plain is flooded more or less continually.
Well I certainly would not live there!
And yes the Piedmont is hills. Literally fossilized sand dunes in the southern area. North of Fayetteville you get into clay and gravel, but still HILLS.
On one of the roads I travel which is quite straight, you can literally come to the top of one of the hills and see the ‘dunes’
The area with gravel is something else. It is a thin layer of top soil over what looks like a gravel driveway! The stones are rounded and go from pea size to the size of your head.
🙏
That is the reason I did not try to sleep again. The electric is up but ‘flakey’ right now.
stay safe
I just filled extra jugs with water and put food in a cooler so we are good to go. We have 2 generators if we have a long outage.
hope it blows over without any issues for you or PAVACA
So far the power is on here but it is out all over the place.
stay safe!!
Still flickering!
I got my FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT T shirt with the above picture ( President Trump, fist in the air, blood on his face) finally.
the t shirt itself is purple…because a) i look fabulous in purple LOL and b) why not? it’ll stand out more.
plan to get more now that i see the quality of the t shirt itself.
If you get any reactions out & about please share them! I love purple 🙂
i will!
yesterday in walmart, I was wearing my “of course I talk to myself, sometimes I need expert advice” t shirt–4 people–different ages and sexes smiled and said they liked my shirt.
sweet!
That’s because they were tired of getting bad advice. 😂
Tell us WHERE you ordered it from!
i got mine from amazon tbh
they have men and women’s sizes in a variety of background colors.
$17.99
I bought one to see the quality of the t shirt and it was decent.
I bought my “where we go one, we go all”, and my “choose greatness” t shirts from there as well years ago
ThankQ. I will check it out and try to find the vendor to buy direct. I HATE Amazon.
i know a lot of people do…lol.
if you find one, let us know.
As long as it ain’t lavender. We don’t want you to be mistaken for a queer. 😂
these boobs are real.
(not that you asked…LOL)
There are a couple of questions that should never be asked …
Seems like a few guys around here appreciate a good WGTT’s report!
I have a T in bright purple that says “Why, Yes I do live in a barn” with a picture of someone mucking out a stall.

I think it is WEIRD that the left have convinced Blacks that a thieving drug addict who pointed a gun in to a pregnant woman’s belly should be their national HERO instead of someone like Dr Ben Carson
No kidding.
How about those who think Al Sharpton is an intellectual to be emulated instead of Thomas Sowell?
Trained people not to think for themselves nor to question anything that is presented to them as “fact” by their side. It’s extreme bizzaro world to me 😮

Thx for the tip
The Demonrat Convention gonna be lit! – like a mixed martial arts no rules match or Saturday night at Walmart – with Joe and Jill, Kamala and Hillary duking it out over who’s going to be on the ticket – with Øbama, Pelosi and Shumer in there trying to referee.
MEANWHILE – TRUMP IS READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
when i saw that picture..inside my head I heard…Trump, Donald Trump
(spoken in a james bond voice…lol)
Love the Alpha Energy! 💪

So Biden and Kamala raided Medicare (in the Inflation Reduction Act) to fund EV tax credits. That caused premiums for seniors’ prescription costs to spike NOW the Biden/Harris admin is covertly trying to pay off insurers to NOT increase premiums until after the election.

If you’re ever in Yorba Linda CA, it’s worth checking out the Nixon Library and Museum. His old house where he grew up in is part of the museum. He had humble beginnings. Did you know Nixon and Pelosi represented California’s 12th congressional district. They had the same seat!

Nixon campaign promise – I’ll end the war.
And he did, except Ford allowed the donkey party to cut off the funding, leading to the infamous rooftop helo scene.

Thanks for the Thursday news. Snacks with bacon?! yes please.
The No Trespassing sign shown indicates a failure to comply with the third of the 3 Ss. As such it gives it all away. Can’t recommend…
In addition to Stevie Nicks, other singers who are (or were) easy to identify would be Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan.
Malls are becoming a thing of the past. Several of them have closed, and according to recent news, the Greenspoint Mall near IH-45 and Beltway 8 on the north side of Houston will be gone soon.
Satire is becoming ever harder to make, as it is being overtaken by actual news.
Epstein didn’t kill himself
Biden didn’t win
the mall we used to frequent in NY–closest to where we live in PA– lost its anchor stores–Macy, JCPenney, Sears…so they repurposed. there are still smaller stores in the mall, but there’s an RV/boat storage place on one end now. the athletic shoe store has turned into pickleball courts, and the Sears store is now a go cart track for kids. the upper level in Sears has viewing areas for adults if they want and food items for purchase. and Macy’s, i believe, is now a gym.
SOmeone in management was SMART and CREATIVE. Give people a reason to WANT to go to the mall instead of using Amazon.
i agree.
Neil Diamond too.
GOOD FOR HER!
One of the few ACTUAL Journalists!
WOW.
Yes, Media Matters is Orwellian as hell.

Verse of the Day for Thursday, August 8, 2024
✟
“Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.”
Psalms 31:24 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
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.

JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
STRENGTHEN MY HEART
Have mercy on me, my Lord and my God;
For I am distressed – in chains I am shod;
My tears flow like rivers – raging from strain;
My heart is pierced – my throat aches in pain!
My life spent in sorrow – and in deep regret;
My sins are before me – I cannot forget;
In repentance I seek You – for right relief;
Your loving kindness is – my refuge – belief!
Lord – affliction – has broken down my strength;
From helplessness, stress – I suffer at length;
My foes have encompassed me – all around;
They ravage me daily – destruction bound!
I trust in You, Lord – take comfort in You;
Come to my aid – Lord – Refresh me anew;
My life is in Your hands – if it be Your Will;
Calm the waters – from their raging – be still!
Feed me – knead me – with Your nourishing grace;
Through faith without fear – my weakness erase;
Infuse me with courage – and strengthen me;
Help me be steadfast – a stronghold like Thee!
Let me be glad and rejoice in Your love;
Assured in Your goodness sent from above;
Let me not – for one moment – be fearful;
Keep me far from unsure – doubtful – tearful!
Free me from distress – of body and mind;
Help me walk self-assured – no longer blind;
With my life in Your hands – deliver me;
From the throes of my foes – let me be free!
Strengthen My Heart – as only You know how;
Pour forth Your knowledge – understanding now;
Send in Your angels – with reinforcements;
Lift up my spirit – in inch increments!
Send forth Your Spirit – to enlighten me;
With knowledge – understanding – wisdom be;
A tower of strength – instilled in my heart;
Let not Your Spirit – from me ere depart!
Strengthen My Heart – my Lord and my King;
Let the indwelling Spirit – His power bring;
Your justice – Oh Lord – from on high rain down;
Let Your Heavenly Grace – be forever my crown!

HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY !!! ❤️❤️❤️
Update on my friend:
she was supposed to come home today from the rehabilitation center but yesterday her oxygen dropped to 67 when she stood to do her exercises–no indication of why. they managed to bring it back up to 93 but only while she is in bed.
she was enjoying the physical therapy because she able to get back some muscle strength that she lost. But unfortunately no one–no one–has given her any information about her test results. she said once she goes home, she can access her chart on line and see the results, but will have no explanation of what they mean. I think this is disgraceful.
and a prayer request for my brother: he goes in for angioplasty tomorrow and is very concerned. our father had quadruple bypass surgeries (16 years apart) and was eligible for another one, but he declined. Dad had a heart murmur when he was born and issues his whole life (which my brother hasn’t) but my brother fears his future will be the same as Dad’s.
thanks Gail
pat frederick
Thank you for the update. I’m so sorry to hear about your friend. Why aren’t the doctors telling her anything? This is disgraceful and unprofessional.
Sending prayer, meditations, Good Energy for your brother.
thank you.
they told her that her stroke was mild and they needed the beds in that section for people with more severe infirmaries. then she got moved to another hospital altogether.
she is baffled.
no information on her extremely high BP or heart rate. i asked if she was given a new medication to control it, she said no.
pat frederick
To say “a mild stroke” is like saying, “you’re a little bit pregnant.”
considering all the apparent issues she’s having AFTER the stroke, i would say so!
Wow, that is really crazy. It sounds like she needs someone to advocate for her with these doctors to give her the information she needs. I can’t believe they’re moving her around like this and not even telling her why. The post-COVID medical system is becoming worse and worse.
Prayers up for her and your brother.
thanks Linda
how are YOU feeling?
I’m doing great, Pat. I’m actually feeling even healthier after dealing with the cancer. Possibly because of some changes to my diet and some additional supplements I’ve been taking since the diagnosis.
Great news!!! PTL
This. I don’t know if she is too ill to do it herself, or if she is not so inclined (being used to passively dong what the doctors say), but if it’s the latter, that ship sailed long ago. She, or someone she knows, needs to demand answers, now. There is no excuse for her not knowing about her own condition.
PRAYERS UP FOR BOTH – 🙏🙏🙏
JESUS BE WITH THEM !!!
thanks duchess!
ANGEL ASSIST !!!
ANGELS EVERYWHERE
You do not believe in Angels – you say
You just might see one someday on your way
Because there are Angels everywhere
Scurrying around quickly here and there
There are Warring Angels ready to fight
Send the Demonic Angels off to flight
There are Comfort Angels who cuddle you
With the warmest of hugs and smooches, too
There are Messenger Angels sent by God
With a word or memo that leaves you awed
Organizing Angels arrange systematically
Your paperwork mess neatly automatically
There are Healing Angels who come with vials
Of healing oils they pour on vitals
There are Praying Angels who lift you up
And give you a drink from the Blessing Cup
There are Traveling Angels who watch the way
Their safety measures are beyond the fray
There are Guardian Angels who talk to you
Make sure you’re doing what you’re sposed to do
Repair Angels assist with your car breakdown
They’ve a knack for finding malicious meltdown
Mechanical Angels tweak, twist and turn
Human Mechanics discover discern
God made the Angels to assist on Earth
They were already here before our birth
To make sure we had the auxiliary leaven
To succeed in this world and advance to Heaven!

New update: Yours Truly is starting to hear the sound of exploding power transformers in the local area (north Durham.)
OH NO!!!
Stay safe!
So far it has not been bad here. We are about an hour south of you.
Gail Combs
Thank you. Yours Truly updated more, further up in the discussion thread.
Take care Pavaca and please stay in touch. Remember (I’m sure you do but just in case) if your phone dies you can use the car to recharge if necessary
that sounds very scary!
please stay safe!!!
pat frederick
Thank you. The biggest issue is that Tropical Storm Debby is literally crawling through North Carolina, very slow moving.
well one thing’s for sure…the maggot and the cackler will be all over clean up, rescue and repair operations…/sarc
We normally take care of our own. The farmers and such grab their chain saws and start clearing roads as soon as the storm rains stop. Big problem is the downed power lines AND the trees that have fallen into the rivers and fetched up against the bridges.
We had a major storm a few years ago that literally carved away several feet of river bank near a bridge. That meant some BIG trees ended up in the river. They have periodically had a crane fishing out parts of the trees ever since. They were there again a few weeks ago.
we do that here too. our road has several “camps” and vacation homes, but we’re just about the only full time residents here. then the one neighbor retired and now spends more time here. a former pilot, the man has $$ to burn and apparently bought a bulldozer. hubby and I get out the chain saws and he brings the dozer to move trunks off the road…
We use tractors and some of the guys have backhoes, small and large.
I just went out to feed my elderly ponies (AGAIN) and say a cop at the top of the hill. That probably means the shortest road into town is now flooded. 🙄
Gail Combs
Stay safe!
No problem. It really isn’t all that bad here considering.
We have been thru more than one hurricane here as well as in Boston.
New updates:
Tornado Watch now extended until 8PM today.
More roads and streets are blocked / closed due to flooding and/or high standing water and/or trees down.
Flash Flood Warning until 4PM today.
One confirmed tornado in Wilson County NC, that killed one person (house collapse.)
Another band of very hard rain and high wind is just starting to move through the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill areas. This kind of rain band movement is forecast to occur off and on all the rest of today and into Friday evening.
Further update: Road closures now in Chatham County, NC and Cary, NC; high standing water in Garner, NC and area.
That is what we are seeing on the radar as the storm rotates around the eye.
I hope Trump sees the true danger of Harries and not become complacent. She is dangerous pretense being a ding bat
It is the puppet master behind her that are the true danger. THEY are the ones that SELECTED her to run because she is a PURE POL POT COMMIE!
True

Must be nice! Our house is 30 yrs old and has only had a new roof since the original was installed WRONG!
this remodel was “necessary” to update the plumbing, wiring, heating, and a/c among other things. WTH wasn’t that done in 2013???? they spent millions and didn’t address any of those significant problems?
EXACTLY!
If the house was several decades old I could see $13 million in renovations but only a DECADE since the last update?

PROPHETIC WORD:
JGM – YOU HAVE ENTERED INTO UNPRECEDENTED TIMES – [8 August 2024]
[Prophetic Word heard – August 7, 2024]
My children, you have ENTERED INTO UNPRECEDENTED TIMES. Things you can’t explain will happen. Things you thought you would never see, you’re about to see. Your nation will experience something it has never experienced to this degree. Many things are about to take place for the destruction of the Establishment and the chokehold they’ve had over My nations. Yes, nations. Not just the land of My Eagle but what they have done to infiltrate and try to destroy My Israel.
A high price your enemies will price because of the destruction and the death they have brought upon this earth. Your enemies are about to fall apart and lose everything they hold dear and they are about to go to hide for a time. They will try this again at the very end of days, but this time now is for My Church to arise and to take back what all belongs to you.
Do not fear this time and do not fear this shaking. Do not fear the unknown and what lies ahead. I am directing, leading, guiding you to your victory. This great shaking will lead you into a great awakening where My church will be cleansed, strengthened and united. My church rising is what your enemies are petrified of. They have silenced and suppressed you for long enough. So My children shout your enemies to the ground.
It’s time for great removals in the land of My Eagle. It’s time for a great political reset. It’s time for My church to take leadership roles to lead this nation into its blessing and to the power it’s always been designed to have. It was held back because this nation was hijacked for so long. But it’s time for the great release. My Remnant keep standing. Keep fighting. It’s working. Don’t lose hope now. It’s time for the giants to fall saith the Lord of Hosts.
Hodgkins….this name will be in your news for a shocking reason. Truth that has been hidden will no longer stay hidden.

YOUTUBE IS ABSOLUTE FUCKING SHITE
I cannot understand why people with a MAGA viewpoint even bother to put videos on there.
For the last 3 or 4 days now the latest available videos on these two channels are being throttled back or blocked, in that they play for less than 5 minutes then fail.
Is anyone else in different regions experiencing this problem on these two channels?
https://wwwDOTyoutube.com/@DanielDavisDeepDive/streams
https://wwwDOTyoutube.com/@judgingfreedom/streams
Haven’t been to those channels but what you describe has been accurate, becoming more prevalent this last month or longer, especially with sound stopping, but that can normally be over come.
As to Youtube or not, it does have by far the larger reach. We are going to just have to muscle through even their script kiddies toss in malicious code to break our spirit. Best we should hope for is that they use more than one platform to get their messages out. Meanwhile I doubt they are breaking anyone’s spirit, which only resolves to double down against their sadistic dumbness, but certainly chomps up our on line time. Good thing though is we can find out message everywhere and we are all on the same sheet of music.
For both I get:

Laura Powell
@LauraPowellEsq
UPDATE: Last night, Kamala Harris personally filed an updated Statement of Candidacy (aka Form 2) to designate Tim Walz as her running mate.
Since she used Biden’s personal candidate ID number (P80000722) instead of her own (P00009423), the FEC records are convoluted. Her newly filed Form 2 shows up on Biden’s personal FEC page. But if you look at the 2024 election cycle, Biden is erased and replaced with Harris, as if he was never never running for President.
Looking at Biden’s campaign committee’s FEC record, it’s now associated with both Biden’s and Harris’s candidacies for President for the period of 2020-2022. But that makes no sense, because Harris’s Presidential run in 2020 was never linked to Biden’s, and she ceased her campaign for President in 2020 and did not run again until 2024. Now Harris’s personal FEC candidate ID number (P00009423)—which is supposed to follow her for all Presidential campaigns for life—is somehow linked to Biden’s Presidential campaign in 2020. Only her Vice-Presidential campaign was ever linked to Biden’s, but that is separate from any Presidential campaigns.
The current 2023-2024 FEC record for “Biden for President” (aka “Harris for President,” ID number C00703975) is linked to two Presidential candidates. Both are both named “Kamala Harris.” One of these candidates is associated with Harris’s candidate ID number (P00009423), and the other “Kamala Harris” is associated with Biden’s candidate ID number (P80000722). The Statement of Candidacy that Kamala Harris filed on July 29, using Biden’s personal candidate ID number (P80000722), now shows up under Harris’s ID number. But last night’s filing for that same candidate—number P80000722—shows up for the other “Kamala Harris” who is running for President. (Based on what happened previously, I suspect the FEC will shift these records in the future, to make it seem like there aren’t so many discrepancies between the names and the ID numbers.)
Confused? That’s because these filings from Harris are irregular. If Kamala Harris had used her own candidate ID number, like every other candidate in modern history, this wouldn’t have been so complicated, but then it would have been difficult to make the case that she’s entitled to Biden’s war chest. Undoubtedly, these filings are trying to circumvent those pesky campaign finance laws. By the way, since Walz has never run for President, he doesn’t have his own FEC candidate ID for a Presidential run. According the the logic of Harris’s supporters, Walz is equally entitled to any funds from the campaign committee associated with ID number C00703975. And, just as Harris felt entitled to file an amended Statement of Candidacy using Biden’s personal candidate ID number because she was the Vice Presidential candidate, Walz could do the same, using Biden’s personal candidate ID number to run for President if he wanted to. The Democrats could pass this campaign down in perpetuity, without even obtaining the formal agreement of the prior candidate.
This reminds me of a system of government that isn’t considered anything like a democracy.
LAWS??? We don’t need no stinkin’ LAWS!
“Follow the money.”
“That’s because these filings from Harris are irregular.” Is that code for being Illegal?

Union members have gone stupid.. Do they not know that without Trump they will never have the jobs and money as with Trump? To me they are like sheep fallowing the wolf..
Normally I never had a problem with unions and they do and under normal circumstances provide good service and protection from abuse to its embers. Things have changed
By the way Walz looks like a typical East German communist What a chicken shit he is.

North Carolina Storm update.
The eye seems to be on the NC-SC border between Charlotte & Fayetteville. However most of the storm seems to be at the NC-Virgina border which is where PAVACA is.
The foothills and mtns are starting to break up the storm from what I can see.
Right now we have sunshine!
This seems to have a decent look at the storm:

Thank you. It’s still raining here, but not like earlier today. More rain is forecast for tomorrow. The flooding on the golf course and stream has receded some; fingers crossed that the continuing rain doesn’t bring the level up again.
The wind is expected to rise tonight after calming down in the late afternoon. The Tornado Watch for Durham County, Person County, and some other areas, has been extended to 7AM tomorrow.
For here MAX wind speed is about 10 mph thru tomorrow. I think we are thru the worst of it. We even saw sunshine. Hopefully it soon moves to your area.

I am looking at an older Ivan Raiklin. He just mentioned that the CEO of REUTERS who was involved in the censoring at Twatter has a BOARD SEAT AT PFIZER!
Thomson Reuters Foundation Chairman is also board member at Pfizer
…Since that tweet, [Below] it appears that Mr. Smith has removed his picture off of his LinkedIn profile in an attempt to make the connection harder to make. However, the pictures are the same person and the “James Smith” that sits on the board at Pfizer admits to being the Chairman of Thomson Reuters foundation and the former president – verifying it is in fact the same Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith is also a “member of the International Business Council of the World Economic Forum.”…

And the ones who got COVID-19 “vaccinated” three years ago are beginning to sicken and/or die. Here is another one, may she rest in eternal Peace:
Yours Truly believes that now is the time when “UN-vaccinated” persons might want to think about taking note of how their “vaccinated” loved ones and friends are doing — particularly if they were “vaccinated” for the first time in 2021.
Totally in agreement.
Brave and Free
It is important that Dr. Malhotra clearly made the connection to the COVID-19 “vaccines” being carcinogenic. As “vaccinated” people begin to sicken and/or die, the doctors who will treat them won’t or can’t make this connection.

so sad 🙁
Yeah! I saw the cat in this one. 😁
Other stories on this mentioned a cat but I didn’t see it. This video is rather short, the others long showing the dog lying on floor bed chewing on the battery until it catches fire in his mouth. The other dog was sitting above on the higher bed closest to the screen, but I never saw the cat until this. I can just imagine what was going through their minds as something as so innocent as chewing on a chew toy resulted in beloved home catching in flame. Sad story and the bad part is people have lithium batteries of different types all over the house now. Ackkk!
That’s what I found so scary, it was not a big lithium battery (not for a bike or scooter), so easy for doggies to find and start chewing… especially those that chew everything.
#SantaAnaPD #PublicAdvisory – DISTURBING ANIMAL CRUELTY INCIDENT
(Viewer Discretion is Advised)
Suspect Description: UNKNOWN
Suspect Vehicle Description: 2000-2006 gray, Chevrolet Suburban, chrome after-market rims, silver decals and unknown license plate #
On Wednesday, August 7th, at approximately 7:30 a.m., our Animal Control Officers responded to a residential neighborhood of a report of a seriously injured puppy. Through their investigation, officers located video surveillance that shows the Suburban driving through a residential neighborhood in the area of Dahl Lane between Shawnee and Mohawk Drive.
The Suburban stops, and the driver exits the vehicle and appears to let a dog out of the vehicle. One minute later, the driver intentionally runs over the dog and drives away. A good Samaritan hears a dog in distress and immediately renders aid. The suspect vehicle returns, however, the suspect nor the suspect vehicle stops to help.
Our Animal Control Officers rushed the 2-month-old female Rottweiler to a local animal hospital where it underwent emergency surgery. The puppy sustained a broken rib cage, but she is expected to make a full recovery and is currently at the Orange County Animal Shelter.
We are asking anyone with information on the suspect or suspect vehicle to please contact the Santa Ana Police Department at (714) 245-8211 or the Watch Commander at (714) 245-8700.

🚨 Wisconsin — Did Anyone Get Arrested Yet?
Milwaukee Election Director, Claire Woodall-Vogg, who Suspiciously Came up with Ten’s of Thousands of Ballots She Got Employees to Fill Out in the 2020 Election, was been Terminated
🔴 THE SMOKING GUN
• emails were uncovered of Claire on election night joking about “delivering the margin needed” to flip the state from Trump to Biden.
In the email exchange, Ryan Chew, from the Election Group said to Clair:
“Damn, Claire, you have a flair for drama, delivering just the margin needed at 3:00 am. I bet you had those votes counted at midnight, and just wanted to keep the world waiting.”
• Compare the timestamp of the email exchange and take a look at the Graph timeline. Milwaukee had a 140,000 ballot dump around the same time which statistically and impossibly favored Joe Biden to push him ahead.
🔴 IN A SWORN DEPOSITION
• Claire admitted “She printed 64,000 ballots in the back conference room of City Hall, Room 501. For the Nov 3rd 2020 election.”
• She had city employees and others (CTCL) fill some of those out on the 4th, 6th and other floors of city hall.
• She Then kicked out observers around 10-10:30pm on Nov 3rd. Then brought in large amounts of ballots at 1:15am on Nov 4th.”
Per Perter Bernegger
🔴 THE RESULT
Donald Trump was leading in Wisconsin by 120,000 votes… and he himself warned of late-night ballot dumps. He was right…
Vote Totals:
Biden — 1,630,866
Trump — 1,610,184
🔷 20,682 vote Difference
They stole the 2020 Presidential Election. The wrong guy is in the White House.
Clair is walking free… and now the Deputy Director Paulina Gutiérrez has taken over— to possibly do the same exact thing again.
Here is a good video Breakdown if you Prefer

OMG ..arrest her and the employees that filled them out
These are obviously criminal acts. OTOH, they probably have the same penalty as jaywalking.
It should be a priority to make these capital crimes and extend them to co-conspirators.
There’s probably additional charges that should be hit with like using employees on company time asked to do illegal acts. The employees weren’t doing their jobs yet getting paid..stuff like that.
I’d pay to hear one MSM show host admit that what we said all along IS true. The DEMS were cheating. It was a rigged election
🚨 TIM WALZ SIGNED A BILL MAKING PEDOPHILIA A PROTECTED CLASS!
In Feb 2023, Rep. Leigh Finke introduced HF 1655 redefining “Sexual Orientation.” Finke CROSSED OUT the section that precluded pedophiles from falling under the definition of “Sexual orientation.”
The Human Rights Act (HRA) written by Finke & signed by Walz revises the 1993 definition of sexual orientation to remove this line: “Sexual orientation does not include a physical or sexual attachment to children by an adult.”
The bill states: “provisions in this chapter shall be construed liberally.” So any Pedo-friendly Judge has carte blanche authority under “Minnesota Human Rights Legislation” to make pedophilia a protected class of sexual orientation!
Republicans @HarryNiska struggled manually to stop Walz & Leigh from decriminalizing pedophilia in the Human Rights Bill but were outnumbered by pedo-friendly Dems & Media.
Niska, a lawyer, added language to the bill that read: “The physical or sexual attachment to children by an adult is not a protected class under this chapter.”
But that sentence was removed during House-Senate committee negotiations & wasn’t in the final bill sent to Tim Walz.
So Walz-Finke would NOT SIGN either the old exclusionary 1993 definition of “sexual orientation” NOR the amendment to the whole Bill that would prohibit making pedophilia a protected class.
There is only one reason to remove such definitions & amendments: to give activist judges wiggle room to include pedophilia under “sexual orientation”.
Is Walz a pedo? Walz isnt just friends with FINKE but SIGNED his bills permitting pedophilia as protected class.
Leigh Finke is Tim Walz’s most trusted trans adviser who WROTE several bills that were SIGNED BY WALZ:
• pedophilia a protected class
• tampons in all boys rooms
• parent ‘or someone acting as parent’ can consent to genital mutilation & chemical castration without either parents consent!
Leigh Finke claims that pedophilia is NOT a valid “sexual orientation” so this exclusion doesn’t need to be put into the definition. However, many trans friendly Leftists have given TED TALKS claiming Pedophilia IS a sexual orientation so we can dismiss Leigh’s PREVARICATION as an attempt to let “liberal” minded Judges include pedophilia as a sexual orientation legally protected from discrimination.

Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign escalated its stolen valor scandal Thursday by scrubbing its reference to vice-presidential nominee Gov. Tim Walz’s (D-MN) rank.
The campaign altered its official website’s biography of Walz, removing its reference to him as a “retired command sergeant major” to instead note he once served at the command sergeant major rank, Politico reported.
The shocking decision escalates the scandal from denial to damage control for the reeling campaign.

Thank you. The Gateway Pundit article talks about how the use of that damned N1-methylpseudouridine in the Pfizer-BioNTech modRNA COVID-19 “vaccines” may “inadvertently” foster cancers in “vaccinated” persons.
“Inadvertently”, my foot, TGP. Try “intentionally” instead.
And there’s that other cancer-causer in the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 “vaccines”, the piece of the SV40 Green Monkey cancer promoter code. Also “intentionally” left in these “vaccines” instead of being completely cleared out in the manufacturing process (which, by the way, is the infamous “Process 2” method.)
