I will post more of my essays for our new friend to read, on this thread.
Some of them will be the humorous ones.

This is part two of what I thought was a folksy little post introducing myself to the group so if I comment or post, you’d have some idea who I was. Since the majority of people thought it should be a separate post, I have done that. Here is part one for those who haven’t read it: PART ONE
I was overwhelmed by the response and thank you all. I tried to reply to all and forgive me if I missed anyone. One post mentioned RINOs. I wonder if RINOs aren’t really just Democrats who couldn’t exist in that Communist party, so they became Republican because what else could they do? But as I open more and more to who the Democrats really are, I would not be surprised if Democrats join the Republican party to be moles and 5th columns.
After Trump became President, the worst thing was his tweeting--not the actual tweets, but MSM distortion. It was maddening. I hate it when people are lied about, even when I strongly dislike them. Since I knew most of the MSM is Democrat, and since the Democrats in Congress bashed Trump’s tweets with the same lies, that right there let me know the kind of people I was dealing with. Then the Russia Collusion and obstruction lies, the border lies, and what for me is a very big thing, the Israel lies. It got to be that if their lips were moving they were lying. But some Democrats felt a wave of hope when Pelosi began to double down on The Squad. They lied about her, saying she was a racist and endangering them, and President Trump defended her. That showed class.
Then came this latest tweet storm. I saw it shared. It looked like a tweet from Donald Trump. There were no splice marks, it had his twitter picture and title, there was just a coherent, and repulsive, tweet. But I’m not an amateur any more. I went to his actual twitter account and read the original tweet and was unsurpised to find the tweet that is being shared all over the internet is fake. It cuts off the last half. But while he defended Pelosi from lies, she refused to return in kind and embraced the lying tweet and the four Communists, ending forever the idea she has any character or she’s not a Communist herself. But when I went to FOX News, I was stunned and horrified to see everyone, EVERYONE, apparently reacting to the fake one, and not the real one. They all claimed he told four congresswomen to go back where they came from. HE DIDN'T. This network had won grudging respect. Now this.
To put it in context, we have four women, one from Somalia, one whose antecedents are Palestinian, one had antecedents from Puerto Rico, one from Chicago. All places that are a total mess. All they have done is criticize this country, say it is a racist hellhole, say how awful it is, a steaming pile of poop basically, that one can only conclude they or their parents made a horrible mistake ever coming here or staying here. So Trump basically said, if that's how you feel, go back where you came from, work to fix it and when you have, THEN COME BACK and show us how it's done. In context of their criticisms he was responding to, he’s saying that once you’ve fixed those places which apparently are not as bad, now you can fix us, which is apparently the worst based on your own statements. Now look, the phrase, THEN COME BACK, has absolutely NO leeway in interpreting it. Anyone who says Trump told them to go back where they came from and stay there is lying. It isn't racist or xenophobic. Now most people, Democrats or Republicans, want to fix things wrong with the country but pretty much all feel that if it just totally sucks in your eyes, leave, because you aren't a prisoner here. This isn't a communist country (yet!) and there is no Berlin Wall. That’s not racist, even if it's harsh. But all over FOX and the conservative columnists, they were falsely claiming he told them to go back where they came from. I wrote to several conservative columnists and FOX News hosts. I’ve been keeping track, on FOX Hannity said the true tweet right away, Pirro corrected guests who referenced the fake one, Gutfeld posted the two different tweets showing the altering (and yet it bounced off two off two guests and they still talked like the fake tweet was true, even though they had just seen it!) Without overtly referencing the hoax, Tucker and Ingraham still gave no quarter. So far everyone else on FOX clearly intends to hold to the hoax one. I have gotten no answers to my letters. I don’t know if people flooding them with letters would help. Changes at the top seem to be changing FOX to FAUX. Right before finishing this article, I saw Cavuto nearly cheering for impeachment. So it was time to look for more news and video choices.
Among ones I’ve looked at I found the Free Beacon. But I thought I remembered from somewhere that there was another Free something-or-other. Free Republic? I searched for it, and looked around, and knew this was a place to continue this journey.
Thank you for being here and for your welcome. After this I want to spend some time feeling my way around, seeing posts, learning the formats, etc.
Thank you!
So fat it’s felt great!
Was just told what /s meant, lol. Now this post makes me smile.
Ah ok. Thank you very much for telling me. Will reply with oopsy to the original oust!
RINO's are sometimes called NeoCons. A NeoCon is a Democrat -- literally, in many cases -- that is hawkish on war. They want wars. But they also want all or some of the Democrat positions.
That "/s" at the end of SuperLuminal's post is called a sarcasm tag. It means he was kidding.
I will start with some of my best works, then go into some of my humor.
This one was well-written, it appears... so much so that JimRob (grudgingly) created a new subforum, Freeper Editorials. Men, Made of Sterner Stuff
This one explores what the REAL political divide is, as opposed to the one they want you to believe: The New Battle Lines: Elitists Vs. Us
This one speaks to the new oppression of a race: White is the New Black.
I wrote this quick one when the left was trying to demonize the Confederate Battle Flag.
I wrote this in reaction to the Brett Kavanaugh smear.
This one considers the influence of Evil in America today.
Enjoy. I will post more for your perusal.
Give him a shot. He seems sincere. I was a noob once, too.
HEY! We '99ers are a pretty feisty lot, too!
I gave him a shot.
I think my scope is broken, as I missed...
;-)

Laz is pretty awesome especially his commentary. Good reads.
I see you are already up to speed on sarcasm tags. Please ignore my post #87.
You missed? That must be like laz not hitting it.
I appreciate your kind words, but I hope it is my humor that is my finest point. :) DGravalloni has seen none of that, yet.
Welcome, DG.
Do NOT pay attention to Cavuto. He cannot get President to come on his show for an interview, and he is a child about it. He LOVES to claim “every side does it,” regardless of the fact that republicans would NEVER do or say the things that the Dems do.
Try Fox Business Network. President gets more support from the Business people.
Good Luck.
Your humor which also illustrates your honesty is your finest trait #noslashtag.

DG. I would suggest to try turning off your tv and going freepnews for a week. Lots of news and commentary, youtube links are right here. Dive in.
I really like sunkenciv’s GGG ping list. Pinging him as a courtesy.
Well, I look forward to re-reading. Dont go light on the funny stuff.
