Poilievre is my favorite politician. Of course, he isn’t perfect, but I’d love to see him as PM.
I’d love to see him as PM as well. Sadly, unless this idiot we have calls an election, we are stuck until the end of 2025. That’s a whole lot of time for further destruction. I am hoping that with the election of President Trump, it will curb any remaining efforts of the evil WEF gang.
Well, I’ll tell you what - if Trump really is CIC, he is doing a pretty crappy job. Recruitment is down, military out of shape and overweight, short on ammo, and spread too thin.
Why did he send military to Ukraine along with all those weapons if he is anti-war? And, finally why isn’t he encouraging Zelensky and Putin to end the hostilities - apparently as (the real) CIC he is responsible for all of the above.
I’ve heard delusional thinking in my time, but this - really.
BTW - my neighbor gave me a Minnesota Vikings table runner that has gold fringe on it, so I guess I am the CIC of the Vikings football team now. Waiting for the call.
Nice seeing you polly, Vikings CIC. :-)

His mother was not a citizen at the time of his birth either.

I’m sure all of the “crappy” job he’s doing is just a cover up. It’s all part of the plan, to throw people off. ;)
I didn’t know the Vikings even had a CIC! A hearty congratulations to you! You must have been very surprised, yet honored, with your new appointment.
I did not know this. I’ll listen in the morning. It’s back to bed for this old gal. I have to be at the dentist for 9:00, which means driving into the city. Ahhhh! Well, it’s right on the outer fringes, so I should be fine. It’s amazing how much you get to hate going into the city when you don’t do it very often....or never.
Thanks for the suggestions. I’m a bit better. I may buy some to keep for the future.
Heywood told me he had met Pence no fewer than eight times in recent months. “A hell of a nice guy,” he told me — though he said he was “really a Trump guy...
Poor Pitiful Pence!
Bwhahahaha!!!
Surly you jest!
This IS your last till the next one comes along.
You were born to nurture these homeless kitties and help them find forever homes.
You are so good at it.
Good morning, lysie!
Lookin’ good for a Monday morning, thanks and pass the hot sauce.
Black Lives Matter Leader Stands Behind J6 Prisoners, Endorses Trump
BY TYLER DURDEN
SUNDAY, OCT 22, 2023 - 04:15 PM
Mark Fisher—who stepped down from his leadership position at BLM Rhode Island, which he co-founded, and is now founder and executive director of the Maryland-based BLM Incorporated—has stood in solidarity with leaders of the Proud Boys and led vigils of prayer for the people he believes to be political prisoners.
“They’re lambs led to slaughter to be sacrificed as an example for all who might want to dissent in the future,” Mr. Fisher told The Epoch Times. “This is what the government does to those who express independent thought and want to stand up for what they believe.”
What he sees in the vindictive treatment of the J6 prisoners are similarities to how black people have been treated, he said, and his aspiration in establishing that connection is to find common ground.
“One of the things I highlight when I speak to them is that they have a whole new understanding now of what black people have been going through with the over-policing, the police brutality, and the unfair treatment in the two-tiered justice system and how oppressive and overreaching it is,” Mr. Fisher said.
Media’s Distortion of Truth
Just as legacy media has distorted what happened at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, by accusing Trump supporters of a violent insurrection, Mr. Fisher said BLM has been blamed for the 2020 summer riots, though there were outside parties like the far-left extremist group Antifa that were a source of chaos.
“Antifa had a lot to do with the riots of 2020, and there were a lot of anarchist groups who just wanted to take advantage of the moment and were out for destruction,” he said.
Black Lives Matter had been around years before George Floyd died while in police custody in Minneapolis in 2020, Mr. Fisher said. Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of murder in the case.
“That’s when it became a political movement and the national and global center of attention,” Mr. Fisher said. “The media made us its darling, which it loves to do, and it was able to make us its scapegoat when things started to go south.”
Mr. Fisher, a Christian who has a degree in theology with a background in being a pastor, expressed contempt for both the government and the media.
“I don’t trust the federal or state government as far as I can throw them, and the media is trying to stop us from uniting,” he said. “It’s the same media that caused the division between all of these marginalized groups in the first place to keep us at each other’s throats.”
What BLM Means
According to Mr. Fisher, people have misunderstood the original intent of BLM’s mission.
The name of the organization itself has led to anger.
“It’s not black lives are better,” he said. “It’s not black lives are greater or black lives matter more. It’s just simply black lives matter. That statement itself is so loaded that people have processed it differently through their own lens and experience.”
To not see the significance of the statement from the perspective of a black person is to fail to see it through a lens of compassion, he said.
Mr. Fisher denied the framing of BLM as a Marxist organization.
“Black people want the same thing that white people want,” he said. “We want life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We want to make money and have a family. Do those sound like Marxist principles? To me, those are fundamentally American, entrepreneurial, and capitalist principles. We want to acquire wealth and leave something—as the Bible teaches us—for our children.”
Mr. Fisher’s current organization, BLM Incorporated, focuses on entrepreneurship education and financial empowerment for black Americans.
The website also states that the organization is not aligned with any political party or position, “unless those politics are for the dismantling of a racist system and the eradication of the white supremacist ideology and state sanctioned police brutality against and killings of Blacks.”

Don’t even think about it. 😆
We got this hard plastic heated mat when 3 feral kittens and their mother showed up at on our screen porch. We plugged it into a thermostat “cube” that turned on automatically when the temp went below a certain temperature. (I think it’s made for chickens.)
We put it into a dog house we got at the farmers supply, and made the door smaller to keep out raccoons and possums.
They were so happy and cozy! In November we decided to bring them all inside. Now only Mama and one of her babies remain. That was 12 years ago. I dreamed about the other two last night and miss them so much.
Just who is Tom Emmers?
Keep this in mind as he is running for Speaker....
Tom Emmer’s relationship with Cuba and Democrats may come back to bite him in House Speaker’s race
Emmer once buddied up with Barack Obama and other Dems on Cuba issues, a big no-no in South Florida.
In politics, there are always skeletons lurking, waiting to jump out of the closet.
For U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer, who is running for House Speaker amid chaos on Capitol Hill following the ouster of former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, that skeleton hails from Cuba and parties with the Obamas.
Already you might be catching the drift — the Florida congressional delegation, overwhelmingly red, isn’t likely to take kindly to this particular revelation.
Way back in 2015 — admittedly a lifetime ago in political years — Emmer filed the Cuba Trade Act of 2015 that would have lifted the Cuba trade embargo, allowing businesses in the private sector to trade freely with Cuba.
He introduced it with a Democrat from Tampa, U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor.

Good morning to everyone except the secret ballot Republican party who absolutely hates their voters.
Hi Gran and all...
Well, that is interesting, but wasn’t it BLM who framed themselves as communists. Mr. Fisher sure does sound like a decent guy, but he might want to select some different letters for his organization....BLM will forever be tainted.
I have to drop the F bomb this morning. I don’t like to use the F word, but I just looked out the window....
FROST! Ahhhh! I hate winter!
