In other words, they have to keep the ball rolling while they have material and financial help from external resources. And our Grandchildren will have to pay for these deceptive tactics. If we were not paying for it I wouldn’t care. I’m not picking a team to win in a sport I can’t even stand.

I like the small sausage breakfast burrito at Mickey D’s. three weeks ago. Sun: $2.39 Wed 2.59. Friday 2.79. Cal keeps raising the minimum wage especially for fast food workers.

And, anybody that spent any of that money at Target supported the tranny/pedo/satanic organizations.

Y’all need to keep track of where your money goes. There are some evil organizations that are easy to avoid. Not avoiding them makes you a supporter.

Bill Gates Calls Planting Trees to Improve Climate Change “Nonsense”

Gates Spends $13.5 Million on McDonald’s French Fries.
In 2022, Gates was part of an acquisition to buy 2,100 acres of farmland, in North Dakota as well as 14,000 acres in the Columbia Basin of Washington State.

All of which, were grown to eventually become McDonald’s French fries.

This just in: Woke liberals are not allowed to say “Black Friday,” they must say “Friday of Color.”

IT COST MORE FOR THE LESS I BOUGHT. A new hand mixer was added Friday morning, my 25-year-old one broke while doing mashed potatoes. And you can believe I looked for the best deal, with $$ back.

Eldest needs money, his Quad Bypass left him jobless, unable to work. The youngest coal Keeps T-ing me off. Grands got age approiate. NO DISNEY.
I Caught Hub’s 2 new Flannel shirts on the markdown. Shopping done.

Exactly. What almost everyone is missing is that these are online sales only, not overall sales. Foot traffic in stores might have been way down. Costco was empty Friday near me.

What would be of interest is how much was paid by real money, debit card vs. pretend money = credit card. I have my suspicion.

That was on the reservation. Big difference in price. But no migrants around. For example, we were in Montrose Colorado this morning. 2 biscuit, egg and sausage combos cost 17 bucks total.
