With all that is going on in our country, we did not know how deep it is or how wide. President Trump pulled back the curtain and we can see if we want to see.
With the Justice Department, judges, and our government, plus the media... all are working against the people and against the Constitution. We say do not vote for a socialist... keep it out. Keep us free.
It's already here.. if you don't feel it.. look around!
What is your opinion on how we ended up to where I feel the gov is controlling... socialism or communism.. how did we get here?
Eisenhower was a general... not flamboyant or loud. just solid... does anyone think he was a liberal though ran as a republican.
Kennedy was more republican than democrat... in today’s party.
Bushes were not. are not conservatives, they are anti our freedoms by being so hard against Trump.
Clintons were radical... did they set things into motion?
barry is the one anti American and that’t why, in my HO) they are turning from the flag... taking a knee.. rioting and destroying businesses and inner cities..
To look at where I was the first time I voted... and today.... it’s a shame.. it has been brought in undercover and hidden from hhe public.
Trump was brought in to save the country... because he was willing and could withstand all that was thrown at him for 2 frustrated years.
It is a lot like Sweden. The Socialists have been in power for (rough calculation) something like 75 of the last 90 years. We aren’t used to these tactics, so they seem more Maoist, but Sweden’s government hasn’t been as benign as we might think.
Human nature and history seem to indicate its all ho-hum until people get hungry. Right now we have conditions that have never existed in history, like the poorest are the most likely to be obese. We are the most passively entertained, most comfortable and the least used to sustained physical effort of any people ever.
I suspect we aren’t going to believe what will be tolerated as long as everyone is kept comfortable as it happens.

Our church supports a missionary couple we can't talk about because he is in a sensitive position (i.e. this reply), and has adopted a North Korean girl just recently granted South Korean citizenship ... an extremely long and hoop jumping experience.
I'm married to a Filipina, now American citizen and I have direct insight into some elements of a third world country.
I'm also involved with our local school board elections because I had been elected for four years and left to be an activist against them AND the public school system I could not be as a sitting member.
What strikes me most about Yeonmi is her statementS regarding having never learned a vocabulary to even describe common, human development and fully beleiving SHE was normal, and the rest of the world ISN'T.
THAT is exactly what is happening to our kids in the public school system
I am hearing on here that yes, we have a socialist government controlling us.
It had to come in under cover... it did not come in via an overthrow of the government where they arrested the in gov and removed all that it stood for.
It did come in in an overthrow of an election, and one the ruling parties... BOTH... let happen. The people who are fighting for our freedoms now ... the ones who are showing how the dems did this.. with full cooperation with the media and each state gov whether right or not..
This is being fought by volunteers ... working long days for weeks.. while the gov in place and the media.. watch their dirty work become public.
I do not get the reason they hate Trump.. adults are suppose to have a brain... but too many care about things that do not matter and throw a fit over things saving our nation by a man they judge to be stupid. Lets get one thing straight... DJTrump is not the stupid one. His IQ is very high.. he runs businesses well. .. he loves this country... and he left a nice comfortable life, to take on the world’s global thrust!
He doesnt talk like you? Did he cut your taxes? did he bring those sons home from an eternal war? when he walks into a room, he fills it... other nation’s leaders followed him around at the summits overseas...
Get a brain... please.
When he gets back in the oval office.. and don’t say can’t do that.. you weak people out there... for God’s sake FIGHT for what is right for you children and grandchildren.. do NOT give in to the evil that is full action against what is right and good.
We take over however it presents itself or the evil that you feel now...will surround us and our nation.. we are the only one left... we are the only nation left...
At first when anyone hinted that God put Trump in as our President to save our country.... people scoffed and since Trump was not a perfect man all his life... why would any Christian support him. That is what my son is asked by the men in the office. He is a lawyer in the eastern part of our country where all lawyers are supposed to fall in line and hate Trump.. not sure they all know why. but they obey I guess.
So why in the world would God do that when so many men think they know what is right and wrong and Trump fits in the wrong group.
If you read the Bible, you have heard about David. God sent a man to a family to find the one person He wanted. When they got to the place, there were 7 sons.. they took one at a time and God said no for each one. “do you have any more sons?” “yes there is a red headed young kid out attending the sheep”... “go get him”.
They brought him in and God said “that’s the ONE”. A little kid out in the field....
Now it is said in the Bible that God loved David, a man after God’s own heart. David did a lot of good.. he also did some things wrong.. He saw and wanted a married woman. he had a son by that woman and then had the woman’s husband killed to have the woman as his wife.
The son die and David came face to face with what he had done and what he had become. . handpicked by God... he went off the rails.
God never quit on David,... God knew the man... God knew the man’s heart. David sought forgiveness for what he did.. and God was there for him every time.
Just don’t think man’s intellect is worth too much.. common sense outranks a degree.
2 frustrating years…?

So on the target!!!! I have a grandson who just turned 9. He is in a school where the kids were to wear a mask all day. His dad will not wear one only to keep from someone attacking him. the grandson asked his dad if he had to wear one.. he had heard it was not mandatory... which was not broadcast. My son told him he didn’t have to if it was not mandatory...and he was the only student in this class without a mask.
One time the teacher told my son, his son was a bit of a news maker. the other kids wanted to know why he didn’t wear one and they had to.. she said she did not know how to handle it.
Now my grandson is a handsome boy with a personality to go with it. he is top in his class and as nice as he can be.
his dad told me he was proud of his son to do this on his own.. but he did not say so to the son... leave it alone.. the grandson was handling it well.
I am so pleased with my kids.. just as an added thought. remark.... i have 4 sons who are all conservatives and a reallly steady head on their shoulders. we adopted a daughter when she was 2 weeks old and she has turned into a Trump gal with enough brains and sense to run for office. I tell her she should look into it and build up the strength to withstand.
it’s stormed here all afternoon and my pc has done some strange things.. i don’t go back very far to check my words....
I was struck by those words, too. She was right about isolation. I grew up “poor”, but I didn’t know we were “poor” until I was invited to a friend’s house, and saw a difference. I went to a school where uniforms were required, so it never showed up in the classroom.
Her description of seeing people dying in the streets and not knowing about compassion was eye-opening to me.
Infiltration, not invasion.
Subversion, not informed consent.
Lawfare, not gun battles.
"The long march through the institutions" => https://www.conservapedia.com/Long_march_through_the_institutions
Even those who know and accept the maxim that "Freedom is not free" typically don't really get it. It's not just about sending draftees off to war once or twice per century. It's not just about funding a military.
Freedom requires personal, diligent effort be put into knowing and understanding what's actually happening in the wider world. It requires "zero tolerance" of anything that's tyrannical, that violates individual rights, that threatens to enable or establish any illegitimate authority of any kind, no matter how "trivial" it seems.
If that means taking up arms, then we all, collectively, must be willing to do it. If that means boycotting multi-billion dollar companies, then we must collectively be willing to do it, no matter the inconvenience of sacrifice required. If that means homeschooling our children, then we must make that sacrifice, too. We have to be willing to do whatever it takes to comprehensively reject and veto anything and everything that threatens to weaken or infringe on the freedoms we all desire and deserve.
We haven't been like that. Not at all. And that's why we're having this conversation, now.

Yes, phone in hand and money from somewhere. Life has turned into comfort and time on hand to commit mischief.
Technology and manufacturing have created a tool for every need and then some.
As a grandmother, I tell my grandkids sorry but you would not have that in my home.... it’s too radical sometimes and ya have to watch what is on those games and their phones!!!
But Roosevelt was too comfortable to hear the warnings when the enemy planes were in the air.
Truman put a stop to a continued war with the arsenal and the power we had... today I don’t think the will of the people or the media would think it good to use all we had to save us. they let the rioters tear up property and cities,,, i’d have them in jail long time ago..
Truman turned the worst bomb ever invented... on the Japanese gov who would not concede.. so Truman turned another one on another city... morning joe would have a fit over that.. but it kept us from a long continued war on both sides of the ocean.. japan should have had better sense than to awaken a sleeping giant...
It had to have been a difficult decision for Truman ... but he said the buck stopped with him and he made a decision to save lives on this side and Japan should have rethought their stupidity at the time.
today I hope they.. the world... take notice. Trump is not gone.. he is relevant. and I hope they look at the crowds who attend his rallies.. he is not alone.
My father, an older man than some who were drafted... was drafted and within 4 weeks was on his way to Europe, ending up headed for the beaches of Normandy.
They were sent in ships and then boarded boats to the shore.. walking from the boats to the guns aimed at them from the hill to the right, where the Germany aimed to stop US soldiers from getting past them.
I saw a video of the young men on the boats there, headed to the shore .. they were quiet, heavy loaded with what they would need.. knowing they probably would not make it past those guns.. knowing there was a likelihood they would be killed. US was just trying to get enough on land to fight the war there... and many soldiers were going to be sacrificed.
My father was not the first load... but when he landed and went ashore... bodies were lying on the ground ... most dead but some alive and hurt... badly hurt.
Instructions for the men who just came ashore were to run, do not stop for anything... you cannot help a buddy or you will be shot... you get any guns you can grab if not needed by the body... but do not stop...
my father made it... he didn’t talk about the war for a very long time.. the young men today do not know the sacrifices made for their freedom to turn from the flag, to take a knee or to just hate America. if you told them, they would not care.. that is today’s youth who have gone off in the head that is supposed to think.
I do care and want to shake the living daylights out of the youth who think they know so much and know NOTHING.
“They let the rioters tear up property and cities,,, i’d have them in jail long time ago..”
The dem mayors and governors did that because everyone knew it would be allowed to happen again if the wrong guy was announced the winner in the election after the summer race riots. They let it happen during the supposedly worst crisis since WWII, when everyone wanted the recovery to kick in as fast as possible. They were boarding up windows two weeks before the election.
