[I think the Democrat’s public act of defiance, flying in the face of God, a little over 7 years ago]

Oops my bad. I was thinking it happened right after the re-election of the Lying Kenyan.

It was on June 26, 2015 it seems.

It just seems like a 7-year plague.

I guess they must have been better with honey

Mark 1:6-8 King James Version

6 And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;

7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.

Exactly why I picked my moniker 22 years ago.

Yep. The Democrats and Bronco ‘Bama have made it an evil reality. The damage they have done (and continue to do) is jaw-dropping.

I did a search here at FR

https://www.freerepublic.com/tag/locust/index?tab=articles

I didn't realize there was one as recently as yesterday.

The first sentence caught my eye

A plague of locusts considered “extremely alarming” is headed toward Africa and the Middle East but is likely to bypass Israel.

Oddly enough, “may you live in interesting times” is a Chinese curse.

Well, that’s certainly fitting...yikes...

(I DO seem to remember it as a Chinese curse, now that you mention it - I always knew it was a curse but may have forgotten the Chinese angle)

I don’t care about Pakistan beyond that they have nukes. Give them and Islam up, maybe we help them.
