Free Republic

A Tribute to my friend Jeff Head, Free Republic’s Eagle Award-FREEPER OF THE YEAR It had only been a few minutes earlier that I hugged blackie, Barb, GrandmaC, redrock and his precious family and headed north out of the narrow canyon, glancing in the rear view mirror at the tiny community of Jarbidge, Nevada. The sun was low in the west, bouncing glistening sparks off the tips of junipers and the winding creek that the narrow dirt road followed. It had been a long three days, my car, gear and my body was covered with a quarter inch of Nevada...

The swamp is thick on Free republic. Trump was the best president in our lifetime! He was the man we prayed for, for decades! He picked some bad people. HE HAD NOTHING ELSE TO CHOOSE FROM! Not in D.C. NOT in 2016. Let me remind you, 90% of you supported Bush no matter what damage he did to this country! SO DON'T TALK TO ME ABOUT POOR JUDGEMENT! I got kicked out of here when I would no longer buy his crap! Like AMNESTY! I'M A DEAD WOMAN. But at least I got 4 years of a president who actually...

JACKSON CO., Or.- Today, a grand jury indicted the man Medford police are charging with lighting a vehicle on fire near Emigrant Lake the same day the Almeda fire sparked. 45-year-old Vance Nguyen is in Jackson County jail on a first-degree arson charge. Today Nguyen appeared before a judge and pled “not guilty.” Police arrested Nguyen after investigating a vehicle that was set on fire near Emigrant Lake. Greensprings firefighters says they found the vehicle in flames, with a propane tank on the top of it. They tell us the direction of the wind that day prevented it from spreading...

Got a text from AuntB this morning, and am passing this on to FR... Folks at freerepublic were so kind. I can't get WiFi in motel, no computer. Can you post an update on the thread that I was on. Just check Aunt posts. Btw.. GoFundMe shut me and several friends who are fire victims as not a worthy cause... They are trying to kill us...

I got a call from my son in Calif about 1 pm Tuesday. He was listening to police scanner.. said a fire was coming my way... didn't make sense, this area has never had a fire. It's the city! I went outside in our beautiful peaceful Sr. retirement village to a bank of thick smoke and saw a raging fire. It seemed 10 miles away. The wind was whipping in every direction and took me off my feet several times. I've been through this before living in the woods of No. Calif. I was prepared then. This home was in...

The State of Arizona passed a law to uphold federal law and to protect their citizens but the liberal DC establishment, instead of supporting the right of Arizona to enact the legislation is acting full bore against them. First, let’s get the media and open border politician's spin corrected. There is nothing in the Arizona law contrary to Federal Law. The State of Arizona is acting in concert and protection of the the US Constitution and law. Today, an article in David Horowitz’s blog describes it. “ Tragically, the very powers that are Constitutionally supposed to protect America from...
