THAT Sir, is one of the very best ideas I have read on these pages in a very long time.
I give your thumbs up recommendation a big 👍
Ah! Sweet memories. 😀

I don’t believe he is a Never Trump.
Not my congressman, but I use to see him at a small gym in Coweta years ago.
He was not friendly, and somewhat arrogant. He was young at that time.
He built a mansion outside of Coweta a few years ago. Sold not long after.
I think the optics of that huge house didn’t go over well with folks. I don’t think it was in his district.
He is not my congressman.
I would never have voted for him.
He has been very successful in the plumbing business. It is located in Broken Arrow. Wasn’t much when he got it from his Father.
I watched that video clip. He comes off as a real jerk.
Wouldn’t be bad at all, if it weren’t being done as a publicity stunt.
But before we discuss that, just who is/was he trying to rescue. Ever notice how they talk about all these ‘Americans’ left behind, but they never give any context. No names, nothing about where they’re from.
Alas, one story yesterday may have shed some light on that. A woman named Nasiria(sp?), made a phone call and couldn’t say where she was hiding. Hmmmm.....
Could it be that Nasiria is from Afghanistan, told the US that Afghanistan was too dangerous for her and her family and that they needed to live in America and, yet, there she was visiting Afghanistan.
There was another article about the school kids from California that are still stuck in Afghanistan and the photo in the article showed what appeared to be an Afghan child. Could it be that the kids and whoever took them to Afghanistan, for God knows what reason, were also recipients of the USA refugess/asylum/visa/citizenship scam? They were all in fear for their lives. Had to move and live in America. Get pregnant. Pop out a US citizen and they’re here for life. And, yet, they all end up back in Afghanistan, the country they for their lives from.
Is it any different than the Somalians in Minneapolis..#1 recruiting location for terrorism, according to the FBI..that are so scared to live in Somalia that they have to live in the USA. And since most of them are on the government dime, they get to use taxpayer money to fly back home to do whatever it is they do. Maybe even attend some training in a terrorist training camp. Who knows?
I heard NO threat. Period.
