Quote I

"I really don't care for those windmills," the 71-year-old says. "I guess I wasn't brought up with that kind of society. Like 50 of 'em together? Who likes all that?" Sheila Wagoner of Keyser, West Virginia.

Quote II

“We work very closely with state and local law enforcement to ensure that individuals who pose a threat to safety are indeed the highest priority.” Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas

Quote III

“Four hundred years of forced labor and never receiving any compensation for it. Now you have the gall to try and prosecute and charge taxes to the descendants of a broken people that you are responsible for causing the breakage.” Academy Award-nominated actor Terrence Howard

The Hamsters were giving me issues earlier today. But, I was able to overcome those issues and give you the best comments from the best commenters in the entire world wide webz.

From teachers who sexually exploit their pupils to toe sucking events our public education is broken. Toe sucking? Yes, toe sucking.

RIP ESPN's Chris Mortenson.

I believe the woman questioning Matt Walsh cannot understand normal thinking.

Big Tobacco Bad. Big Marijuana, government's Big Cash Cow, Good.

Research Highlights:

An analysis of survey data for 430,000 adults in the U.S. found that using cannabis has a significant association with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke, independent of tobacco use, with higher odds among the adults with more frequent use (more days of use per month). The most common method of cannabis use was smoking, followed by eating or vaporizing it.
The increase in the combined risk of coronary heart disease, heart attack, and stroke was similar to the risk among the subset of adults who had never used e-cigarettes but did use cannabis.

Speaking of weed................

I am not a doctor nor did I stay at some overpriced hotel last night. When your immune system isn't working properly, it is more than a glitch.

A group of some of the world’s leading scientists has alerted the public to a devastating discovery regarding those who have been vaccinated with Covid mRNA shots.

Top scientists at the world-renowned Cambridge University in England have published the results of a bombshell study into the impact of the injections on the human immune system.

The study concluded that 25 percent of all people vaccinated with Covid mRNA shots now have Vaccine-Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (VAIDS).

According to the study, one in four people who received a Covid mRNA injection suffered an “unintended immune response.”

However, the scientists note in their paper that the “unintended immune response” was “created by a glitch.”

It is called Shrinkflation folks.

America’s Largest Dermatologist Group Engulfed in Battle Over Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Policies That Are ‘Weaponized Against Jews’
A resolution to ban DEI that will be considered at the American Academy of Dermatology’s upcoming meeting is sparking heated debate among doctors.

Nope, never heard of J6 defendants being locked away indefinitely until they have their day in court. Nope, never.

Friday, following a Feb. 14 stunt, the DOJ announced that 35-year-old Donald Zepeda of Maryland and 27-year-old Jackson Green of Utah were charged with felony destruction of government property after they had sprinkled a red substance on the display case of the U.S. Constitution.

“Zepeda and Green are charged with felony destruction of government property for dumping a fine red powder over the document’s display case in the Rotunda of the Archives building. The cost of cleaning up after the stunt, which was intended to draw attention to Climate Change, has already exceeded $50,000,” the release indicated. “In addition, the act closed the Rotunda for four days.”

Green’s alleged National Gallery of Art stunt wasn’t the only one committed there in 2023 as vandals also associated with the activist group Declare Emergency had smeared paint all over the display case of French artist Edgar Degas’s “Little Dancer Aged Fourteen.”

Reacting to a Thursday release of Zepeda with an ankle monitor and restrictions, Declare Emergency lauded the zealot and posted, “True protector of people & planet. Peaceful warrior. Truth teller. Pass It On.”(Emphasis added)

Everyday common man walking through the halls of the Capitol on January 6th are still in custody. This professional shit-stirrer is free to roam about the country with his handy-dandy ankle bracelet.

As far as I'm concerned with Washington D.C. the whole damn place can burn.
