Today I finally understood something about Donald Trump that I had been missing this entire time. And when it hit me — it hit me completely. Because, look at who this man chose to surround himself with. Not billionaires. Not people born into power. Not people who had everything handed to them. Karoline Leavitt — 27 years old. Ice cream shop girl from New Hampshire. Trump looked at her and saw something the entire world missed. Made her the youngest Press Secretary in American history. Susie Wiles — a woman who has spent her whole life quietly strategizing from the background. No fame. No spotlight. Just pure brilliance. Trump looked at her and said — you will be my Chief of Staff. First female Chief of Staff in American history. JD Vance — a soldier. A boy from Appalachia who served his country in uniform before he ever served it in office. Trump looked at him and said — you will stand beside me. Pete Hegseth — a soldier who gave everything on the battlefield. Two Bronze Stars. Trump looked at him and said — you will lead our military. Marco Rubio — the son of a bartender and a hotel maid. Two immigrants who came to America with nothing. Trump looked at their son and made him the first Latino Secretary of State in American history. Do you understand what Trump actually did? He did not build a powerful administration. He built an unbreakable one." Because every single person in it knows what it feels like to have nothing. And people who came from nothing never take anything for granted. Tonight, say one prayer for this entire administration. And say a bigger one for the man who chose them. Then pass this to every American who needs to understand why this administration hits different from every single one that came before it."🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Republicans want to 1) keep our borders closed 2) keep our people safe from drugs and bad illegal aliens 3) support the family 4) protect our Christian rights 5) support women in their sports 6) save our nation!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Please get out and vote Republican!!! We are NOT perfect by any means, but we want the best for everyone in our State and Nation!!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

From Michael Clay Lovejoy On FB: As I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same. I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life--so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone. You can't justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind! • If a man pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him. • Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America. • Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good. • It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it. • People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves. • People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees. • Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated. • Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcome. • $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not. • If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free. • People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President. • We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us. • Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now. • Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights. • And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?! Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China. We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right. Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast. The choice is yours to make. What will it be? Time is short, make your choice wisely!

Your parents won’t see you grow old. Your partner never knew you as a child. Your kids will barely remember you young. Even your closest friends only know parts of your story. You’re the only one who lives every chapter. Be kinder to the person who’s been there through it all. You.

At 220 degrees, nylon melts and runs. At 220 degrees, wool is a jumper. At 250 degrees, polyester melts and sticks to the skin. At 250 degrees, wool is a jumper. At 300 degrees, acrylic catches and drips burning plastic. At 300 degrees, wool is a jumper. At 400 degrees, the fleece is a liquid. At 400 degrees, wool is a jumper. At 500 degrees, the sofa is on fire. At 500 degrees, wool is a jumper. At 570 degrees, wool finally chars, puts itself out, and stops. That is why the seat under you on an aeroplane is wool. That is why the Royal Navy stopped issuing nylon after 1982, when the men on the Sheffield found out what it does. That is why a firefighter's station blanket was wool for a hundred years before anyone made an advert about it. The sheep grows a fire-rated, self-extinguishing, water-shedding fabric on a hill in Wales for nothing. The market price is below the cost of the haircut. The replacement is petrol you can wear.

Let's recap: Nearly four years of Governor Healey and we became the most expensive state in the country for families, our electric bills hit 122% above the national average, over a billion in SNAP fraud was ignored after Biden warned her in writing, 60+ convicted murderers meant to serve life were freed by her parole board, a cocaine operation ran out of her state office, billions went to illegal immigrants, and she blocked our audit for almost two years. She calls it a record she's proud of. We call it a reason to vote her out.

I’ve watched this several times and it’s incredible.

Some melodies aren’t just meant to be heard, they can be experienced visually, too. Pachelbel’s “Canon in D” offers a captivating blend of music and visual beauty.

This is Stetson, our #PMU ambassador against the use of #Premarin for hot flashes in menopausal women. To produce it, #mares are kept permanently pregnant until discarded exhausted. Their foals are killed or sent for slaughter unless they are rescued, like this beautiful boy.

Las palabras de Isabella Rossellini 🇮🇹 son una bocanada de aire fresco en una sociedad que a menudo vive obsesionada con detener el reloj. Su reflexión desarma los mitos de la eterna juventud y plantea una mirada profundamente liberadora sobre el paso del tiempo: "Soy mayor y tengo el aspecto de una mujer de mi edad. Algunas mañanas, al mirarme en el espejo, me pregunto: ‘¿Y si me opero?’. Pero siempre lo descarto, porque la cirugía es como cuando vendaban los pies a las mujeres en China, una nueva manifestación de la misoginia. Podría parecer de 56, pero cuando tuviera 76, aparentaría 66... Es ganar una batalla para perder la guerra. Además, con el tiempo, la belleza reside sobre todo en la elegancia y la inteligencia. Pienso, por ejemplo, en María Callas, Frida Kahlo, Anna Magnani... A los 20, todos somos atractivos con unos vaqueros y una camiseta, pero luego la belleza se convierte en una cuestión de estilo, personalidad y carisma. No hay que ocultar los defectos, sino transformarlos en lo que nos hace únicos. Ya no busco ser sexy, sino expresar lo mejor de mí misma. Cuando eres joven, estás bajo mucha presión: el trabajo, el dinero, los hijos... Pero a medida que envejeces, te sientes más libre, más segura, y haces lo que realmente deseas. ¡Nadie habla de lo maravilloso que es envejecer!"

I want to shake the hand of the guy who wrote this... Have you ever seen a Muslim hospital? Have you heard a Muslim orchestra? Have you seen a Muslim band march in a parade? Have you witnessed a Muslim charity? Have you shaken hands with a Muslim Girl Scout? Have you seen a Muslim Candy Striper? The answer is no, you have not. Just ask yourself WHY ??? Barack Obama, during his Cairo speech, said: "I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America 's history." AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE Dear Mr. Obama: Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians. Were those Muslims who celebrated the first Thanksgiving Day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians. Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution? Declaration of Independence? Bill of Rights? Didn't think so. Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England? No. Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America? No, they did not. In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as "pug-nosed slaves." Says a lot about what the Muslim world really thinks of your family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it, Mr. Obama? Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present. There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights. Where were Muslims during this country's Women's Suffrage era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so that they are often beaten for not wearing the 'hijab' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they? Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops, and accepted support from the Nazi's in killing Jews. Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, or a field in Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East. No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and other cable news networks that day. Strangely, the very "moderate" Muslims whose asses you bent over backward to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day. And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America ... Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslims. And now we can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan. Also, don't forget the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15.2013 was done by 2 Muslim Brothers. That, Mr. Obama, is the "Muslim heritage" in America EVERY AMERICAN MUST READ THIS !! Be sure to SEND IT TO ALL. Muslim Heritage, my ass. Copy and post. That's what I did to inform people about these things.

The New York Times relegated Evyatar's forced digging to the last paragraph of a story maybe two days after the fact. That was my breaking point with the NYT.
