No, they could care less; they just don't care less. None of this matters to them.

Let’s hope. I’ve can’t even remember how many government shutdowns we’ve had since Clinton was president, but I do know that apart from Obama’s spiteful shuttering of national parks and monuments, most people barely even noticed when those parasites were “shut down”. Best thing that could happen to this country would be for the federal government to be shut down entirely.
Spiritually it is far, far worse. The stench of evil and depravity is everywhere.
Yes that! Anyone who recognized that the Anti-Trump movement was a conspiracy of the C students [to be very kind] to put themselves in charge under with a dementia case as head of the ticket could see disaster looming. They all think they are smarter than everyone else. Hell, these guys are so bad they don't even recognize the right answer when told.
The Trump plan for winding down Afghanistan was the Trump plan and so the first thing these guys had to do was not do anything Trump was going to do. Well when you throw out all the good aspects of every plan to date so you can own the success that will drop in your lap, you also own the failure that inevitably occurs.
Success has a thousand fathers. When you orphaned those trying to achieve success you doomed yourself to failure.
That’s couldn’t care less. Sheesh, even Townhall has illiterates for editors.
That particular one is especially egregious.
But come to think of it, the author may be right this time.
Same goes for almost all goods, and it also affects services as well.
“There are 19 members of Biden’s cabinet who have dual citizenship in another country.”
I did not know that. Just wonderful.
Biden, like Obama worked 35 hours a week. Trump worked more than both of them combined.
No, they could care less; they just don't care less. None of this matters to them.
I’ve been reading a book recently by Ronald Kessler about the CIA, with a section in the chaper I read last night about pre-collapse Soviet Union. Written in 1992, it was a completely different CIA in those days.
The Soviet government set demands for how much of any product to produce, including agricutural, with no regard for demand. Govermnment set the price, and wage rates, and you got paid whether you did anything or not, so workers and farmers had no incentive to produce grains like corn or wheat that was actually usable, or decent quality products.
Glass companies produced panes of glass so thin they would break with little effort, companies made thousands of lead vases that were never sold, then melted down and re molded for next year, tractors got to the market bare chassis, the transmissions and other parts stolen for the black market or personal repairs before they even left the factory, etc etc. Shoddy workmanship all around, if workers did anything at all they didn’t care about quality, they got paid even if they just sat at home.
So you’d go to the grocery store, the only thing they had was potatoes and onions. You would go to oe cashier to get a chit to buy an onion, pay in advance, and after a half hour wait in line. Then you would go to another cashier who would get the onion and weigh it, hand it off to another one who would ring it up, then to a third one who would eventually take your chit and hand it to you with no wrapping or bag to carry it in.
If they had grapes, they were rotten. If they had oranges, they were green. If they had apples, they were dried out and worthless. Ditto for almost everything. Bread? yeah, but moldy...meat? yeah but all fat...
At a restaurant they would have 4 or 5 waiters for every table, but you might wait 15 minutes to see one, they were all standing in the hall talking. They still got paid, who cares if you sit there and wait? The food was less than appetizing too.
Taxi drivers would get paid whether they took on a fare or not, so you would watch a half dozen drive by before one would finally decide to stop and pick you up. You would hope the car would run long enough to get you there...
You walk into a hotel and it would smell like mildew. Carpets several years old, dirty and worn thin, the telephones (this is 1990 or so) made in the 50s. If they had one at all. It might work. Some hotels looked like it was 1890...
The bedrooms looked like something out of the 1930’s, or earlier. Carpet, if it wwas there at all, about like throwing a towel on the floor. The towels thin as napkins. The beds about the size of army cots and sunken in the middle, rusty spots on the sheets and the same mildew smell as the lobby.
I can’t remember a lot of the rest, he took 2 pages describing the USSR as a third world country. Literally.
This is where we’re heading right now.
I went to a Dollar General yesterday, the band had to play and I forgot the pocket size kleenex I always carry, required with my sinuses. The lady who worked there was just arriving, and informed me that they just started (yesterday) opening an hour later, they are understaffed and can’t find anyone to work. I’m pretty sure “vaccine” insanity is making it worse, but she didnt specifically say that, it’s my guess. Dollar Tree just started opening at noon, Ididn’task but probably the same reason.
“We’re hiring” signs up all over the place.
Gas went up $.04 last week, $2.79 to 2.83. Everythingg else is going up, especially groceries. Girardelli chocolate bar (yeah I’m a chocoholic) that was $2.50 a month ago now $2.79. Some things still the same, milk $3.30 a gallon, same 3 months ago.
That won’t last long though, once the gas increase hits the store shelves, everything will go up. When their delivery price goes up, shelf price goes up. Bass player int he band drives for a local grocery chain, they’re short handed too.
And I just got hit with a car repair. Still not sure just what is wrong, error codes only tell me the camshaft sensor is not sending a signal. Replaced it, still won’t start, but I’m hoping that’s because of the weak battery. Flashers for 45 minutes and a dozen times trying to start it ran the battery down. It’s on a charger right now. Fortunately, a neighbor towed me in, saved me a towing bill. Have a coil pack on the way, supposed to be here yesterday, now fedex says tuesday.
Just put in plugs and plug wires, plugs that were 10 bucks a couple of years ago now 16 or 17 after tax, and that’s the lower priced ones, after a set of plug wires more like 50 bucks. Coil 35 and change, cam sensor 20.
And I still have no idea if it will start once the battery is charged...
If not, I’m looking at even more increasingly expensive parts.
And what about things that have disappeared? Can’t find the paper plates I’ve been using, had to switch to a more expensive brand. Only one store has the Girardelli I want any more. Can’t remember what else, other than ammo of course, but it’s showing up more and more these days, but expensive.
This is what we’re headed for. Third world status. I’m not sure it’s not too late to stop it. I think we can, but it will take what we, meaning conservatives, currently do not have.
Organization and leadership.
President Trump, please pick up the red phone...
Democrats have been dismantling of the US government for years aka Fabian Society.
Weird Al Yankovic also has a take on how language and grammar has degenerated over the last fifty years.
“Word Crimes” -
“To kill the snake, cut off it’s head”
The head in this case, are the media hydra. Those at CNN, MSNBC, Slimes, Compost, etc.
I’m in! However, it’s gonna take more than a day. We’ll be hunting these aholes for years. We gotta remember to ground all air traffic, we don’t want them to flee.
“You won’t stop this unless the country actually sends back millions of illegals.”
I’m with you, and we both know it won’t happen. we can’t even impede the flow without ‘media backlash’.
Notice this is now a migrant problem, not an illegal immigration problem. You can’t say it’s ‘illegal’ in the public square anymore. So, just by changing the terms we are one step closer to national disintegration.
So, they’ve taken the bad connotation away and now they are just ‘migrating’ - like the birds... and you like birds, don’t cha?
bttt
There’s the rub.
Abbott deploys the Guard. CornPop says he’s going to federalize the Guard.
What if the Texas Guard says…….NOPE. We will follow the orders of Gov Abbott and only Gov Abbott.
Not trying to be accusatory toward you but a lot can be accomplished by simply saying NO to CornPop.
President Trump dealt with quite a few states that ignored him. Time for quite a few states to do the same to CornPop.
Only because they’re being allowed to.
I’m speculating. Abbott needs to try.
Absolutely. I believe he already is.
Anyone asking me, ask for volunteers with law enforcement experience. Send DPS a resume, quick background and criminal history check.
You pass. Show up with some 511s and some gear. Quick weapons qualification, here’s your polo shirt and baseball hat. Report there or there.
Spend 2 weeks or so, augmenting the folks down there. Shift them all west to New Mexico and save Texas.
I have a few rabid liberal acquaintances. Not friends just casual acquaintances. They are smug about the destruction of everything American and/or wholesome. The celebrate it and look forward to the crash and burn. Yes, they are insane.
