As a proud Tennessean, I am thrilled to see that my representative, Tim Burchett voted McCarthy out. Burchett is a plain-spoken man of principle.
Don't even vote in this until Trump is one of the choices.
I don't know WHAT my associates call me behind my back, but they never say it to my face. In addition to being a conservative, they know I'm capable of defending myself, both verbally and physically.
To each his own. I just have a bunker mentality and store up food, water, lead, and silver for the day when we will be in a Mad Max world.
Oh I plant those seeds, alright. I was the only one in the group who refused to get jabbed and boosted, and at first they hated me for it. Now they seem to be understanding that I was right and they were... well, they won't admit being WRONG, but they certainly are questioning their decisions made back then.
Don't forget this, anons... WE are the new counter-culture.
I meet occasionally with some older hippies to play music at a local venue. I am the sole conservative in the group and they know it. All of them are bound to the old 70s style leftist politics. I am on board the Q train, although I keep that to myself, but still they know me as a conservative. In their eyes, I'm a "reactionary" and part of the establishment... language of the last century. They can't help it, they're stuck in the last century.
The first time we met after all the stupid covid shutdowns, one of them jokingly said to me, "Hey there, you old reactionary, how have you been doing?"
I was very tempted to say, "Well, I'm unvaccinated so I'm feeling GREAT!" But I didn't. I just said, "We 'reactionaries' are the new counter-culture."
That gave him pause...but we both laughed over it. If he weren't the best blues player around, and if the others weren't so musically talented, I'd look for other people to play with, but it is what it is.
Yeah, I'm with you on this one... why should this matter?
I plan to leave my phone on with the remote possibility that it just might be a wake-up call to humanity. Other than that, I'm expecting a bland announcement of the "this is a drill" variety, a nothing burger.
I know that is considered an unreliable source, but... but if only 20% of that is true, then what an interesting world we live in.
OK, so how will THIS new monstrosity be used against We The People?
I'm praying that it starts THIS MONTH.
Well as Rush used to say, we should keep a few of them around... in comfortable cages, fed and housed, so sane people of the future can know just what kind of retards they were after they become nearly extinct.
Proof there is a God.
Well I pity anyone holding paper ANYTHING...gold, silver, platinum... in a crisis, those certificates might make good kindling to start a fire, as their actual value would also be in smoke. I prefer to hold physical, solid silver.
Not Biden, actors. There are probably 3 or 4 different actors who play "Biden" as he is probably unable to converse lucidly anymore.
Good to know that, although I've suspected it for a long time now. Over the years I've bought silver anywhere from $12/oz up to $25/oz... I pick pieces up at antique places where they are sometimes under-priced, to gun shows and other venues. At this time I calculate I have something short of 400 troy ounces, which should see me and my wife through a long term crisis.
I once read somewhere -- don't ask me where -- that if the currency collapsed silver could shoot to $1,600/oz. I'll wait and see on that one, but I didn't buy my silver as an investment, but rather as a hedge against collapse of the currency when barter is the only way to obtain necessities.
I've also invested in lead to protect the silver.
Aha! Thinking you may be right. I don't own one penny's worth of PAPER silver, I've stacked physical silver over the years... and not as an investment either. I just get it a few ounces at a time, put it away and forget it's there. It is SOLELY for the purpose of barter if our currency ever collapses and is worthless. I will still be able to barter silver for necessities.
Interesting headline, in that it draws a distinction between "adults" and "Democrats." There's a lot of truth hidden in that comparison.
Odd thing: I go to Kitco.com daily to see the price of silver just as a check on what the market thinks about the economy, and lately it has been dropping in price / troy oz. Today, it's a mere $21.66, but earlier this year it had been over $25.
Any idea why silver, if a crash is imminent, would be falling in price? I would think that people in the know would be rushing to buy silver (or gold) if they knew the market was going to crash, and drive up the price.
Proud to see that (Tim) Burchett, my representative from Tennessee, is listed there.
The UniParty is afraid... and rightfully so. Their time is up.
Suppose they gave a war and no one came.

Sounds like the smarter people of Ukraine, those conscripted to be cannon fodder, have other ideas about how this war should be fought.
Force Kevin McCarthy out of the speaker position and, if possible, force him out of the Republican Party. Let him live among the Dimwit Party fools.
Yes, I read Tim's comments. I was raised in these mountains of east Tennessee, so driving cloudy, foggy, curvy roads is in my DNA. We're a red state and we're open for business. i consider east Tennessee to be God's country, but I just MAY be biased.
