GM All,
Here is an additional thought for those in Federal service.
If you are above the minimum retirement age (MRA) and have at least ten years in service, you may be eligible for early retirement.
This is what I believe I will be doing. I’m 19.25 years and over the MRA. The up side to this decision is that I will retain my BC/BS health benefits for life. Also, a termination will not stain my resume for potential future jobs. The downn side, in my case, will be a 15% reduction in pay.
While this isn’t the perfect world option it is far better than the other negative consequences. I can work two days each week doing anything I’d enjoy and make up the 15% reduction.
The way I’m beginning to look at this...
1- this government has flat out posted that if anyone celebrate religious holidays, commemorates 9/11, believes the election was stolen, or is against COVID measures...that person is a potential “domestic terror threat”. Simply outrageous!
...well...by sending a strong religious exemption against covid measures, aren’t I checking two of the three boxes in their fantasy and outrageous claims? Further, once “outing” oneself to their claims, where does this potentially lead? How’s it going to unfold at the next background investigation, or security clearance? Furthermore, how will I be treated as a fighter against this tyranny? Will my workplace be enjoyable? Will I thrive? Will I be shunned? Will there be retaliation? It doesn’t look very promising.
2- Let’s say the religious, or medical exemption is accepted. Great. Then what? My guess is that this will result in mandatory weekly, or twice weekly testing. For me that’s 104 nasal probes with swabs that have me highly suspicious, or at the minimum false positives, but also what danger to they pose? I’ve seen too many videos of frightening issues related to the swabs, including DNA gathering, nano bots, swabs pre-infected with the coof, toxic carcinogenic chemicals in them, fibers which tear the lining of the nose and sinus and more.
Combining the two points and thinking ahead, with the observation that they continually move the goal posts,I have to wonder what the setup could be for the future.
At this point I am strongly leaning to early retirement. And isn’t it odd that nobody in my office suggested this as a real life option. I have to wonder why.
Anyway,I thought to share these notions that I’m noodling over in hope that it gives some inform an other, maybe better option, which maybe nobody discussed with you either. When the idea was shared with me last night, the person in another office had been told of this option very quietly by a supervisor who was highly reluctant to share to much information, as though it was not to be discussed with the employees. Maybe this is because if all those with more than ten years + MRA know then there would be MASSIVE retirements. I suspect it, because it is the easiest out from the mandate tyranny and the workforce loss would be epic. But that’s just my speculation.
I will gather more details about this option and appreciate any feedback that is instructive and helpful. I will probably exercise this option and put in my retirement package during the first week of November and then burn through my sick leave starting Friday after veteran’s day with a doctor’s note to excuse me from duties while I go through the three month processing time.
The reason for that day to be out sick is three-fold;
1- this will end the five day counseling period, which will then potentially begin the 14 day discipline period on Monday November 15.
2- By being on sick leave they cannot execute any disciplinary action as I remain on sick leave through the retirement date December 31
3- I’ll use the leave I earned. Well, most of it.
Here is the OPM guidelines;

I will still complete and share the final religious exemption and share with those who requested it, but it might not be until Monday when I send it. However, with all the above stated, my final exemption submission may not include my specific religious beliefs. Leftists hate Christians and to present my beliefs is to throw what’s precious to dogs. Self-preservation.
“Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.” Mat 7:6
Best wishes.
No fear

FRANKFURT (Reuters) -Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann, a relentless critic of the European Central Bank’s ultra easy monetary policy, will step down more than five years early, opening the door for Germany’s new government to pick a less confrontational successor.
Grassroots inquiry.
Anyone want to help with putting together a (pdf) Letter-2-Editor type contribution for local news/newspapers?
National won’t carry it until it gets feet in a regional context.
Concept is...
Our government representatives no longer perform according to the “best interests” of the people they represent (historical evidence), rather they support the on-going security of the “government” in-place.
To wit, the governing authorities no longer serve the people but serve their environment.
The media has become the “protector” of that situation.
Since LBJ, we have been subjected to practical governance and, in this time...the media are complicit.
Not to “sell” their content but, rather to protect their “authoritay!”.
This will be a “patriot position” exercise that can be distributed.
I can start with my thoughts but, as we flesh it out, we can create a talking point.
I will attempt to edit under 1500 words.
Please FRmail me with serious participation inquiries.
I’m thinking your “Enterprise” newspaper would be verklempt in publishing something like this but, it is a win-win if they do.

I bought a 23 foot trailer in October 2020
It is a 2021 model
Paid $20,500 from a no haggle dealership.
In April this year went to an RV show
The same model and year was on display and already sold
I could not believe the price displayed so I looked at the dealership I bought from...price was now $30,000
This month was talking with friends about this and looked at the dealership website again
Same year, same model ...$40,000 no haggle price
I just looked again and is down to 37k for the 2022 model, but I didn’t check if it has all the features as mine.
Still..
Get ready for sticker shock
Wonderful advise. The Republican Party is merely a vehicle for getting elected solid people like President Trump who stand up for the values of real Americans who believe We the People are sovereign — not elite bureaucrats and Senators in Washington who snub their nose at “little people” while secretly robbing the people blind.
She's got the moxie, gonads, and fire-in-the-belly of a George Patton.
Read up on the Christmas cactus. Adding Epson salts monthly will give it the magnesium in needs.

I believe it will since Mg is the fuel for mitochondria healing mechanisms. What I've found is it needs a little help getting in, therein the derma roller.
I'm not suggesting this brand, but this is what they look like. I do, however, suggest starting with a .25mm roller for beginners. The longer needles are for pros and will make you bleed (which is sorta desirable for deep healing).
Love that!
That is a good heads up. I don’t like it.
Prayers for your family and you, Pete.
Yes, Mel, it is in His Hands.
I avoid buying produce from Mexico and from other foreign countries.
