This is coming to light, and will be disgusting, but enjoyable to watch explode.
So Congress is a subsidiary of Mossad. Cesspool is too good.
Trump is at the fight in Las Vegas.
Cool beans! I love those clips.
I am looking for them
He just walked by my daughter-in-law
Very cool! I wonder if my niece is there. She went back about a week ago.
Thanks exit! Perfect summary of today’s speech. It was very good. I particularly noted when President Trump said, enthusiastically, that he liked Vivek. I think if Vivek were any kind of nefarious globalist or enemy, Trump would not have said this. I’m still leaning on my own personal theory of Vivek being on Team Trump. I call him Proxy Trump lol.
Thank you
My pleasure! Love watching these clips. Those are the real people of America, in my eyes. Love watching them love President Trump.
Look at the clip this 77 year old man walks at.....without any effort.

Boston Tea Party takes place
On this day in history, December 16, 1773, the Boston Tea Party takes place when a group of angry patriots dump the tea from three ships into Boston Harbor to protest Parliament’s tax on tea. In 1767 the Townshend Acts placed a tax on tea and other items for the first time, leading to boycotts of English goods in the colonies. The Townshend Acts were finally repealed in 1770, except for the tea tax, which Parliament left in place to assert that it did indeed have the right to tax the colonists.
By 1773 the British East India Company, the main importer of tea to England and the colonies, was suffering a severe financial crisis. The Indemnity Act of 1767, which removed certain taxes on the Company, had expired, causing the price of tea to go up. Tons of tea that could not be sold at the higher price sat in warehouses in London. In order to rescue the Company, Parliament passed the Tea Act of 1773, which removed taxes on the Company, allowed it to export directly to the colonies, thereby bypassing middlemen who raised the price and raised the tax on end-consumers.
The Tea Act actually lowered the price of tea in America, but the colonists stood on the principle that it was unjust for Parliament to tax them at all, because they were not represented in Parliament. Seven tea ships left England for America that year. Patriots at Philadelphia and New York successfully prevented the ships from unloading, while the ship at Charleston, South Carolina was confiscated by patriots and the goods resold to aid the patriot cause.
In Boston the ship Dartmouth arrived on November 27 and was prevented from unloading by local patriots. The Eleanor and the Beaver arrived over the next few weeks, but they could not unload either, while a fourth ship was lost in a storm. By law ships arriving in the Americas had 20 days to pay the required customs duties, meaning the taxes due on the Dartmouth’s cargo had to be paid by December 17. The owners and captains of the ships volunteered to return the goods to England, but Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson would not allow them to leave until the taxes were paid. Local citizens posted sentries around the ships to prevent them from unloading.
On the 16th a mass of 7,000 people met at the Old South Meeting House in Boston. After the meeting, which was led by Samuel Adams, several dozen men, some dressed as Mohawk Indians, marched to Griffin’s Wharf and boarded the ships. 42 tons of tea from all three ships was dumped into the harbor, so much that the water of Boston Harbor was reportedly brown for a week! The dumping of the tea on this date was important because it meant the tea could not be resold to pay the taxes.
The term Boston Tea Party was not used for nearly another century. In fact many Americans looked down upon the event for the first several decades after the Revolutionary War because it involved the destruction of private property. Eventually though, the event came to represent a moment of pride in American history as a revolt against tyranny.
Parliament responded to the Boston Tea Party by passing the Coercive Acts, which ended self-government in Massachusetts by disbanding the colonial assembly and shut down the port of Boston until the price of the tea was repaid. Theses “Intolerable Acts,” as the colonists called them, were the direct cause of the calling of the First Continental Congress, which met to coordinate the joint response of the united colonies.

Good stuff
Tea Party anniversary, eh?
Maybe we all should go do a reprise on that, only we’ll throw bureaucrats/politicians into the Chesapeake.
Overdue.
And long past damn overdue.
Look how they have hidden away the toxic Ba’aI Gates food. Be very careful when shopping for produce at the supermarket. When you see this label immediately dispose of it or better yet, return it to the store.
It’s covered in poison that you can’t get it off or out of it.
