Family Holiday party last night - 5? Conservatives - 30+ liberals?

My husband’s (large) family is wonderful. Some of the nicest people you will ever meet. But they are mostly liberal, thanks to most of the uncle/aunt generation working in the unions of the Miami -area aircraft industry years ago. (There once was a giant rift in the family due to one uncle being in Eastern Airlines management while 2 were in the union.)

No politics were talked at all. We were just genuinely glad to be together again for this tradition for the first time since before Covid. We have already lost 3/7 of the aunts/uncles and others are fading 😢 My husband was so lucky to have an idyllic childhood growing up with this close-knit family alongside 15 cousins.

My suspicion is that the shots have aged many of them more rapidly. But they are in their 70s and 80s and mostly doing well. Husband’s mother has advancing dementia as does one uncle. But who knows if it is from diet or the shots? We do know with husband’s mother that it appeared after the second shot.

My most interesting conversation was with one of the youngest cousins from the grandchild generation (our kids’ generation.) She has a very liberal mother that I infrequently engage with on FB and she went to school in OR, but is still in school due to missing 2 semesters due to illness. I was slow on the uptake but she had obviously shaved her head recently.

We started off talking about what she was doing. I hadn’t seen her since she was a baby since she lives in AK. Somehow we got onto the topic of holistic medicine, likely because she has been sick most of her life. She is now seeing a naturopath since Western medicine “has failed her”. This is huge as her mother is a nurse!

I told her how much I’ve learned about the importance of food and nutrition and urged her to keep going with the holistic medicine route. She also dropped that she is on SSRIs and is working to wean off them. I did drop RFK Jr’s name once and she immediately stiffened but didn’t say anything. I asked her if she had heard what he was saying about the food dyes and cleaning up our food supply (she hadn’t.) I said ignore his supposed anti-vaccine stance that you’ve probably heard about for now but pay attention to what he is saying about cleaning up our food supply. He is onto something. (I figured the vaccine knowledge will follow as she goes on her holistic health journey… plus, I can’t fight her mother’s influence at this point.)

I was really encouraged as I look back on our conversation. Here were two people so opposite in views politically, absolute strangers, but able to talk easily and connect over our health. To be fair, she had no idea I was conservative until much later in the evening as part of another quick conversation.

One person at a time. So far in my limited contact with new people (I live a life where I don’t bump up against new people often), I’ve gotten a black male millenial (many conversations with him as my massage therapist) to vote for Trump and I’ve had several conversations about food/health with other strangers…

I took them for a little over 2 weeks. I didn’t really notice a change, except that I felt really good and more energetic while I took them. I plan to do another 2-3 week course next month. I’ll probably do it 4 times/year just to make sure I never have the carotid issues that my grandmother did.

I always wondered why they stopped talking about trichinosis from pigs and also then said it was okay to cook pork and leave it pink.

Should be every General and even Colonels. SES also.

Something weird happened at PEO STRI (Army) in Orlando, FL between Cole Engineering and a SES- level civilian. DCIS raided Cole and PEO STRI and Ms Saunders (the head of PEO STRI at the time and a 1-star equivalent) was gone immediately.

We are all waiting to see what happens from this. If Cole was guilty of wrongdoing, their contracts will have to be executed by other companies.

I guess we will have a bunch of special elections happening here in FL in about 8 weeks!

I found it so fascinating. I would bet that Raiders of the Lost Ark has some truth in it after reading about this one.

Putting the pieces of the story together it sure seems like they found an ark and took it to Antartica. Why there though? Drop it in the ocean never to be found again?

It’s close (and thanks for finding this version at least!) but it’s not as detailed and missing some of the details I remember. It explained that they called in the Catholic Pope and he couldn’t go near it and they had to get the head of the Eastern Orthodox Church. They explained the religious history and why the Eastern Orthodox Church was the “real” church.

Good for you for printing it out. I found it in my early days of research when I was inhaling everything and didn’t realize stuff wouldn’t be so easy to find later.

I just saw where you could mix it with cottage cheese and whip it and it tastes like mousse. I’m trying that in the near future. Protein and chocolate - win!

Have you heard the story of the 2nd Ark being taken from Mecca to Antartica? The false Pope of the Catholic Church could not go near it. They had to get the head of the Eastern Orthodox Church to get it.

It was found when they were updating the grounds of the Mosque at Mecca. They kept having fatal accidents, until it was discovered and taken to Antartica. I’m kicking myself for not saving what I read about 4 years. Very intriguing!

Even though this was MS, it gives insight into how all of these development projects get shoved through, despite resident objections.

I’m over on @SharaonSaysSo (Instagram) and I had someone curious ask me why I was optimistic about Trump. But she was one out of many. They are pissed, trying to abide by Sharon’s rules to be respectful, but are so brainwashed that they can’t comprehend that Trump is anyone else than the abhorrent dictator that they believe him to be.

My theory? They inserted Vincent Fusca double at rallies - who was definitely NOT JFK Jr, to enable him to pop up at an election night event, near his cousin.

Weirdly, Kimberly Guilfoyle is solo there (private house)?

Yes!! I’m lucky that my husband is here among us, albeit impatiently waiting for the arrests. Trump winning is a big relief to us both (though I never wavered in my faith in this plan since finding out about Q 4 years ago this Friday.)

I can talk to one person at work who also wears a tinfoil helmet but isn’t 100% on Q yet. I surprised him with how much I knew about the 2020 election fraud incidents/schemes yesterday. He fights me over the childhood vaccines being bad, but his father is a retired DO, so he trusts his father more than me. At least he is avoiding the Covid vaccines with his little one. RFK Jr will reach him shortly I’m sure.

My mother isn’t sold on Q but she is red-pilled and was a keyboard warrior on FB trying to wake people up. My stepmother is red-pilled now also.

But others in the family? Yeah, I’m crazy and too wrapped up in this stuff. It’s hard, especially from your daughters - daughters who once believed in the Q plan but lost hope in 2021. I told them to give me until Memorial Day 2025 to see it come to fruition. I hope Trump gave us the correct deadline!

Anyone who can do what he does with those rallies at his age is a Beast!

Same here, except add about 25 years and USAF veteran 😊 I didn’t ever watch the Apprentice, was not overly fond of the Don’s apparent infidelity, but I watched him dismantle the RINOs in the debates and I was hooked!

Returned power back to the people. Watch his 2017 inauguration speech. We have to do some of the heavy lifting.

Something Trump said at one of his rallies is imprinted in my mind. Paraphrasing: It is going to be a really hard time for the country beginning in January 2025 but we will be on the road to recovery by Memorial Day. Then we will start celebrating all the way until AMerica’s 250th birthday July 4, 2026.

Peter was just on Badlands live show. WI is a shit show. They are slow rolling the counting of the ballots in Milwaukee so that is the urgent need right now.

Good points, but don’t know if it is a very blue area. I grew up in neighboring VT and back then both states were very conservative. (VT was ruined by NJ/NY immigrants.)

NH state motto is Live Free or Die and they’ve done better than VT in trying g to live up to it, despite the MA immigrants bringing their left-wing beliefs to the state.

I think the results are encouraging that the media wasn’t able to fool half of them this time around and it was encouraging to me that they went R with the governor, not D. 😊

Nick Freitas had a video clip from the debate between the two Congressional Candidates. The R is a scrappy immigrant and she accused thr D of renting an apartment in Nashua so that she could run 😁 i would have voted for her based on the quick clip that I saw! But, she had no money reportedly for ads, so who knows?

Looking at internals, only 12% have voted already? Ah, but they don’t have early voting - one of the 3 states that do not.
