I've always like the cut of his jib.
He's a straight shooter who knows his history.
Always a pleasure to read his take on things.
I learn from him, I can't say that about too many people these days.

Some of us own rural land and provide a home for meat on the hoof. We occasionally think and talk about what we would do if invaded by the hungry. (Éhes emberek, nem Magyarország emberek.)

Ofc = Of Course.
TPTB = The Powers That Be.

And Google will usually translate these for you.

Maybe one of the neighbors will try to get a selfie next to the bobcats like someone else did with a snow leopard: https://gearjunkie.com/winter/snow-le...

I wish I understood the letters some of you use :-( Is it really so hard to just spell out what you mean???

👍👍

Read, carefully, the first paragraph of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto. That's exactly the point.

The author's 'solution' points are so simple, relatively easy to implement,
and would be very popular with MAGA supporters.
Doesn't appear rational for the more difficult and offensive, anti-freedom
blunt force methods being implemented instead unless the goals of D.C.
are not what they claim.

I don't know about the rest of the country, but if everyone will pitch in, I'd gladly cram a crowbar into the San Andreas fault line and give a good pull.
I'd love to see the nasty side of Soviet Kalifornia slide off into the Monterey Trench.
There's some scenery there I'd love to see again, but it would look just as good underwater..

The working title for AS was, if I remember correctly, The Strike.

Thanks Jim Dandy. While I don't know him, he always has thoughtful and insightful comments.

I have a different take.

What you SEE is 100% manipuated.
Therefore: "I think we are seeing irreconcilable differences."

Ofc you are. Because TPTB want us fighting each other.

Both sides are being manipulated.
Because THEY cannot afford for us to turn against TPTB.

First, I'd love to have a slice of that smoked brisket! YUMMY! Next, it seems there is a piece of our society that has to find fault with everything anyone else is doing to make life nice and enjoyable. Is it envy? Jealousy? Busy body control freaks? Democrats? I don't know, but we just have to live with them.

Suggestion: See if the neighbor with the brisket will invite you over if you bring some good beer.

This split is just as the parasites in D.C. want it.
We fight each other instead of going after the parasite traitors who are the cause of our pains.

Night Of The Living Dead was not a fictional movie, it was a glimpse in to the future.

I too look at our local NextDoor here in Colorado Springs, and you are right, it ain't pretty. Mostly people looking for help, looking for jobs, needing a ride, or venting crazy leftist ideas. Depressing to look at, because it appears the average person is missing part of their brain, and has zero motivation to get out, find a job, and work. Almost seems like half the population is on the verge of homelessness .

Good article. It points out the strategy if the desire is to get rid of illegal immigrants, then the country has to stop fertilizing and start poisoning the ground they have taken to live on. The notion of government sending out an army of bullies to loot some citizens to "help" other citizens (or lately, non-citizens on a massive scale) may convince some that their government is being benevolent, but in actuality it is building an army of bullies that can slap around the whole population as it desires.

From the article: "If and when the Democrats recapture power and the permanent ruling class, globalist technocracy regains total control instead of its current partial control under the Trump administration, it’s going to unleash absolute hell on “domestic terrorists” — 100 times worse in scope and scale than it did on the January 6th protesters." The left (Marxist Democrats mainly) have already tipped their hand in this respect with their pursuit of President Trump and ANYONE connected to him over the past decade or so. They are following the playbooks of Hitler, Stalin, and Mao and all that remains are massive incarcerations and executions, which IMHO will become reality as soon as they gain the power to do so. The Main Stream Marxist Media is already on board as is a large portion of academia.

Denver drives Colorado. Minneapolis drives Minnesota. One city's population roughly equaling half the population of the whole state. It's the same problem all over the nation.

I'm sure you have to deal with what you have to deal with.
DOB has acquired enough too busy things to do without me going into any details that he mentioned.

Me dino thinks Trump was speaking for the silent majority who DOES vote. Other than that, we have no arguments. Twenty-one years as a state corrections officer, I suggest ICE and its police support needs to stock up a more ample supply of handcuffs, leg irons, tear gas, assorted electronic jackass pacifiers and prisoner transport vehicles with no side windows. I personally learned something about "shatterproof glass." All it does is break into tiny pieces without sharp edges.

Thanks, Dr. dino. Good to know he's okay.

I just finished Bret Baier's book on Ulysses Grant. The nation split neatly along geographic lines. Now we have an uneven geographic split, with 3 major blue islands (Northeast, West Coast, and unfortunately where I live, Colorado). But it is worse than that, because it has devolved in to urban vs rural, with the left taking over most major cities and implanting liberal mayors. Local politics are critical. Very hard to see an even split now.

Thanks for the article. Explains a lot. I was wondering what Palantir was doing.

She'll be 121 years old on February 2nd.

What would she say? Usually it was something that nobody was expecting.

Glad to hear.
