Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

Guys guys guys, Raytheon - to comply with Trump's EO which also impacts government contractors - is doing away immediately with their DEI office, executives, and all pages (search came up with nothing). No more pronouns, trainings, special groups, flags, propaganda. Now to get them to stop being evil.
When one door closes another opens… right?! So very thankful for all the hard work Trumps team has done the last few weeks. But it’s bittersweet for me and my family. We were self-employed home owners. Lost house mid/late last year, now living in a one room apartment to try to save our business (which was booming in 2019, so much so we were going to expand). And now, come the end of this month we’ll be closing our business too. All attempts to contract business to survive the byden storm have failed. My spouse had a triple bypass due to stress and I’ve recently been hospitalized for mild stroke. (No we aren’t vaxed). Stress. It’s all stress.
Not sure what this next chapter holds for me and my family, but it sure would’ve been nice to have remained self employed. Do employers even hire ppl in their late 50s? Well… I guess we’ll find out soon enough.
Hope an economic turnaround comes soon, very soon!
I think if you guys can hang in there somehow for 8-10 months, you will watch the beauty of the new system and reap its benefits. Praying for you and your family.
We tried to hang on this long and have burned thru much of our savings hoping for a miracle. But our new chapter will hold our miracle. God has a different plan for us
What sort of business?
Bar/restaurant.
My career was in restaurants/lounges, and I feel for you, it's a tough business. Way back when, (circa 1980's), I was taught that restaurants make a nickel for every dollar they pull in. Can't imagine what it is now.
Hope with Trump, you can maybe restart your business and/or get into a better home, (thank goodness you still have a roof over your head!)
Or maybe, the opening door is to something different and better.
My prayers go out to you! 🙏🙏
May God bless you. 🙏

+1 thankQ for sharing, excellent song, beautiful voice
BTW it's pretty clear what they're doing with DOGE: Cutting all money flows to the bare minimum and then turning back on only what's necessary after verification.
Good morning frens
I am sipping covfefe
no one cares about MSM anymore
Anyone think like me, that that big bad prison in El Salvador was paid for by us? Good use finally of taxpayer money.
I searched for Whoopi in the USAID scam. While not paid directly, if you click on the grant flow- phew that's a lotta red & $$$
https://datarepublican.com/officers/?officer_kw=Whoopi
It's great everything they're finding out about who got paid by USAID.. I'm waiting to hear where all the supposed money to Ukraine went. Just like Haiti only got 1-2% of the $$$ and the rest went to The Clintons, I'd like them to uncover the rest.. Did money to Ukraine go through USAID channel or some other channel we've never even heard of.. so much to uncover..still waiting for Kash, RFK, and Pam to officially get in, or is Pam Bondi in already? So much news, hard to keep up.
I just thank God everyday we've arrived at this point and everything secret will be made known.
Luke 12:2-3 "There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known".
Anybody still think Elon made his money organically in the private sector or have we finally figured out that he was another Zuckerberg / Dorsey black money figurehead who is now working for MAGA? u/therobots is having an aneurysm over this!
https://www.bitchute.com/video/fj6dAD2bYv2J/
He was funded by the Cabal, but got intercepted and converted by the WHs. Trump has alluded to this in hints many times. Even in the inauguration when he brought Elon on stage and he was describing the rocket, he said "Captured" and put emphasis on it. And ofc, Elon's talk was underwhelming. All symbolism to show that Elon is under Trump/Q control.
I lean to this position too. My only point in posting this is to clear up for those who think he made his money on his own. The taxpayers funded his companies through DoD
And perhaps the amount we paid will come out during this great exposure.
Praying so fren 🙏
Pretty much every enterprise that wee believe is a "private enterprise" that later became huge, is funded one way or another by whats rightfully people's.
I agree. He is a new and improved Elon (2.0) now.
Something I catch a fair amount of, if anyone sees someone knocking on “boomers”, and we are all human and have plenty to knock on as both individuals and among our many groups, but it’s a boomer in the copilot’s seat.
It’s also a lot of twenty something autists and X’ers doing digging and mapping and pumping meme cannons.
Pilot seat is God.
Everybody has a row to hoe! We have a thousands-year old death cult to tear down! LET’S GOOOOOOOOO!!!
u/#q697 u/#q698 Superbowl?
Man, Q697 feels absolutely delicious!
Talk about chatter.
I wasn't sure how the meeting with Japan's PM was going to go. No red carpet when he arrived.
Japan is going to invest in USA to the tune of a trillion dollars. That's awesome
Everything must have gone well because there was red carpet on his way out :)
I'm curious if Bibi got red carpet?

Charles Haddon Spurgeon February 7th — Evening Reading
"And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither." — Revelation 11:12
Without considering these words in their prophetical connection, let us regard them as the invitation of our great Forerunner to His sanctified people. In due time there shall be heard "a great voice from heaven" to every believer, saying, "Come up hither." This should be to the saints the subject of joyful anticipation. Instead of dreading the time when we shall leave this world to go unto the Father, we should be panting for the hour of our emancipation. Our song should be—
"My heart is with Him on His throne,
And ill can brook delay;
Each moment listening for the voice,
'Rise up and come away.'"
We are not called down to the grave, but up to the skies. Our heaven-born spirits should long for their native air. Yet should the celestial summons be the object of patient waiting. Our God knows best when to bid us "Come up thither." We must not wish to antedate the period of our departure. I know that strong love will make us cry,
"O Lord of Hosts, the waves divide,
And land us all in heaven;"
but patience must have her perfect work. God ordains with accurate wisdom the most fitting time for the redeemed to abide below. Surely, if there could be regrets in heaven, the saints might mourn that they did not live longer here to do more good. Oh, for more sheaves for my Lord's garner! more jewels for His crown! But how, unless there be more work? True, there is the other side of it, that, living so briefly, our sins are the fewer; but oh! when we are fully serving God, and He is giving us to scatter precious seed, and reap a hundredfold, we would even say it is well for us to abide where we are. Whether our Master shall say "go," or "stay," let us be equally well pleased so long as He indulges us with His presence.
I haven’t watched an NFL game in about 7 years. But I’m going to watch the Super Bowl tomorrow because President Trump is going to be there and Elon bought some commercial time. In fact, I may DVR it, speed over the game and look for any interview with POTUS and the Musk commercials.
Did someone post that “Obongo’s” security clearance just got revoked, too?
I see a double post of FJB, but not the Obama one anymore.
I found an interesting video on youtube called: Once You Know This, Every PSYOP Becomes Obvious.
Perhaps this video?

Magnitude 8.0 quake in Cayman Islands.... The most convenient secret banking haven to the East coast of the US.
this is a comment I saw on GLP/conspiracy forum...about SSI. the OP is talking about his roommates freaking out about their benefits. I didn't know people were being locked out of their accounts😳 but it's a good way to make them pay attention;)
"One is 45 and the other is 33 years old and nothing is wrong with them physically, mainly psychological (depression). They both have been locked out of their accounts and told to set up an appointment and report the Social Security office with their medical records and latest Dr. evaluations, which they don't have. They have been doing all their reevaluation appointments online by just putting check marks in a "box" for the last 5 years and never had to go "in person" to the office. They watch movies all night while "Gaming", sleep all day and spend most of their time in the summer Fishing and drinking 32 ouncers on the deck. They laugh at me for going to work every morning and working all the overtime I can get. Both have EBT and free medical. Looks like their $995 a month is coming to an end"
So good to hear stories like this
Does anyone happen to know a good homeopathic treatment for dyshydrosis?
Maybe something as simple as “drink more water, dummy!”
I was expecting to see a DOGE/Elon news
I have mixed feelings about posting this, but here goes. I have ONE friend left after Trump's first term. One, albeit an annoying one. She has the ability to talk non-stop for two hours if you let her. When I get to the point of saying goodbye she launches into "So what's for dinner" "how are the dogs/cats/etc" We've stayed away from politics but I found a way to get her off the phine - Red Pill.
Toward the end of our chat I told her I had to get the guy who did my $16k driveway / stoop job to return but wondered when he'd get back to me since due to ICE he probably had no workers. That led to her saying she was afraid for this country. I asked why. She said Trump was like a Nazi. How? She had no answer. Then the way he was elected. How? By populsr vote? Then she hoped Barron was advising him. I said yes, he helped get the young vote with social media. Then Elon who is mentally unstable. Yes, he has a team of autists uncovering corruption. Then she said " Money is the root of all evil" - I said yes, that's why he is saving us trillions and he's just getting started. She moved on briefly to all the news sources she pours over. I told her it was all propaganda. What about Fox? Trump loves Fox. I told her she was behind the times on that one. She was desperately trying to get off the phone but I threw down a challenge. Read GAW. Will she? Dunno. But I suspect I've lost that last friend.
