I have owned DJIA shares for years and Trump would in his first term talk about how 401 (k) accounts were doing well and many 401 (k) accounts have DJIA shares.? What are you on about?

DJIA shares are invested in by the Canada Pension Plan and many other pension plans. I collect CPP disability and the DJIA is important it is the number one stock market in the history of the planet,

We are not crying we are saying elbows up. Hands off our country America the home of the Church Of Satan and the birthplace of NAMBLA. We don’t want your ghetto disease . Saw on CTV News today that car trips to America from Canada the world champions of hockey are down 30%. You are the country of the My Lai massacre and gang rape. The land that gave us the HAMC and Rupaul.

Stay out of Gaza and Panama and Canada. Don’t buy a Tesla. Keep protesting Tesla dealerships. Trump just might be the antichrist.

You’re boasting like you’ve earned something toward your salvation, (Trying to make the argument that, “my good works are better than your works, therefore I’m more saved than you”), once again demonstrating a serious problem with the object of your faith, and then you follow this self-condemning belief, by lying about my “advocated war against peaceful countries.”???

Dude, you need to trust in the work of Jesus alone, in grace alone, and by faith alone, and that can only come from truth in the heart that you have accepted what He has done for you and NOT in the works that you’ve done for yourself.

Here’s another example. Stand by your leadership or exclude yourself.  
American Exceptionalism, even if it means firing another American.

Allies should take note as well as enemies.

So you say America should not use force to take over the Panama Canal or Canada or Gaza or Greenland part of American NATO ally Denmark?

I reject the Book Of Mormon but note they never cause problems for non Mormons.

Reg might remember the Mormon church on Williams Rd in Richmond BC near South Arm Rec Center. I remember one of the girls there was in one of my classes she drank a bit which of course Mormons aren’t supposed to do.

I don’t remember that Mormon church but I have been to a couple of other Mormon churches in Surrey for ham radio oddly enough. They are right into emergency preparedness and asked me to participate in one of their seminars on it. Beautiful churches. Nice people.

Does that mean you don’t cry, you don’t like onions or your chef slices your onions into bite size pieces and feeds them to you?

The lyrics and the video are funny, but I totally lost it @ “And not even a Transgender mouse is clear”. 😆 🤣

Yesterday was the 250th anniversary of battle of Lexington and Concord. Britain fired the first shot.

> Isaac Davis (February 23, 1745 – April 19, 1775) was a gunsmith and a militia officer who commanded a company of Minutemen from Acton, Massachusetts, during the first battle of the American Revolutionary War. In the months leading up to the Revolution, Davis set unusually high standards for his company in terms of equipment, training, and preparedness. His company was selected to lead the advance on the British Regulars during the Battle of Concord because his men were entirely outfitted with ...

Isaac Davis doesn’t get enough credit.

Are you in Maine now? Do you celebrate Patriot’s Day?  
Do you take time off work for it or are you unemployed currently?

I’m in New Hampshire. I live 3 miles from Massachusetts. This is quite common. I don’t think I know anyone that has bought in Massachusetts in the last 5 years. It is unaffordable.

I am off on Patriot’s day, but only because my wife is on vacation. It is not a paid holiday. Actually, I have no paid holidays, but it is a regular day at the hospital. Nothing is closed. I took it as a vacation day, but if school was open I would have worked.

I notice Michele hasn’t posted for a few days. I’d bet she wouldn’t care much. This guy is a clown but so is all of Trumpworld.
