We have become so political, Lines being drawn, sides chosen. I wish we didn’t have to defend ourselves but we do. The Dems are saying Thomas Crooks was a Republican, when everyone knows he had just registered to vote in the primary against Trump. These Lies keep us from any decent discussion. ( don’t get me started on Walz now acting like HE’S been the Peacemaker when he just called for the Dems to “be meaner”! Ugh)

America is no longer one country.

It is at least two separate countries. And we aren’t going to live in peace with each other much longer.

The Left is looking for a martyr. Papilla’s theatrics were drowned out by Israel attack on Iran. It didn’t get legs

I’m told by a police source in Minnesota the suspect in the shootings of MN state lawmakers is Vance Luther Boelter.

It appears it is the same Boelter who was appointed to the Governor’s Workforce Development Board in 2019 by Gov. Tim Walz. He appointed to the Governor’s Workforce Development Council in 2016 by then-Gov. Mark Dayton.

Then Walz can own him, or we can hold his feet to the fire for the connection, just like the democrats do or would do if he was connected to a Republican.

I’ve been told that I have a midwestern accent, and I’m from California. I also apparently speak German with Stuttgart accent, which is interesting because my family is from that part if Germany.

So, who knows?

“And the whole state technically goes blue when the urban centers out vote (or outcheat) the rural ones.”

And in our state (statewide) election results are tabulated and certified by the Secretary of State.

In the very, very blue capital city.

“What matters is who is counting the votes.”

The suspect is a Timmy Walz appointee who targeted fellow democrats who voted against taxpayer-provided benefits for illegals.

This morning, at 3:30 am, my friend in Bremerton was awakened by loud pounding on his door by the county sheriff (Kitsap Co.)

They were looking for missing 14 yo girl that had been reported at his address.

Turns out the house was across the street from his!
