The Face of Hate
"If this is not worthy of censure, what is? When you can call for the annihilation of a country and its people, if that’s not worthy of a censure, what is?" McCormick said on the House floor Tuesday.

Link to quote: House votes to censure Rashida Tlaib over anti-Israel comments | Fox News



Last night the House of Representatives voted 234-188 to censure antisemite Rep. Rashida Tlaib. Twenty-two democrats found enough spine to vote with their Republican colleagues to censure this horrible hater. I often wonder how such people ever get elected, but after seeing all the violent Pro-Palestinian demonstrations within this country, my question has changed to who let them in?  I smell Obama.

Incidentally, The House also approved a bill slashing Pete Buttigieg's salary to $1.


Once again, the democrats had a good night in the few elections that were held. Once again, they campaigned on abortion. Imagine an American citizen, with all this country is suffering through voting solely for unlimited abortion rights. In Virginia the democrats once again pulled out a surprise victory by not only holding onto the State Senate, but also flipping the House of Delegates. It was the third straight bad election night for Republicans.

Maybe it's time for this one to go:

There is still zero outrage for the murder of a 69-year-old Jewish American by a Pro-Palestinian protestor.

Hamas head of "Weapons & Industry" was killed last night by Israeli forces.

Good morning.

As America continues its great decline, socially, morally and culturally, it may be worth noting that the once great nation will be remembered for its generosity and the peace and security it once provided to the rest of the world. Those are the most positive thoughts I could come up with this morning.

Big Lee has a catering truck that is quite popular around Ocala. Some months back he won a national BBQ championship it was after that that he opened ''Big Lee's BBQ'' on 19th St.

Oh yeah, in Micapony on Hwy 441. A very historic town.

Thanks, next time I’m down there, I’ll try it.

Loved pulled pork, I doing one for a work luncheon next week.  First one that I’ve down since I got sick in 2020.  Looking forward to it.  I serve it nakid or with my Captn Jack sauce which is mostly a NC vinegar sauce with a little catsup add and Cole slaw on top.

I don’t have a smoker so I daisy chain two rows of charcoal on the bottom grill of my Weber and one row on top of them. I leave a three inch gap between the rows, put some apple or cherry wood chips on top and fire on end with a propane torch, by adjusting the dampers, I can keep the temperature at meat level to around 205.

I’m looking at those at well.  My problem is I don’t want several outdoor systems.  Im trying to defy engineering and have one charcoal grill that is equally good at grilling steak and smoking low n slow.  I probably should get one system for each.

They are mad as hell and motivated like never before. Trump is going to be the gop nominee and like it or not Joe Biden is going to be the only man standing between Trump and another term.

It is, but I think it's also a waste of time as it's never going to be approved in the Senate much less signed by Biden.  As the current CR expires in just nine days I would rather they be working on either (a) getting the budget passed or (b) working on a new CR to keep the government open.

There should be no shut down happening.  After the last shut down they suddenly found money to send overseas.  If they have money to send overseas they have money to avoid a shut down.  

They need to get off their asses and develop a budget that will keep everything running.  No special interests or any other stupid bullshit, no money overseas until US citizens are taken care of.

Why does America send money overseas?  Could it be that all that money creates a general atmosphere that is favorable to US business interest overseas ? Or it is used to help our allies stabilize parts of the world that would disrupt US business interests if they were regularly in turmoil?

All that money doesnt go overseas without an expectation of a return to the ruling class.

113 billion for a general atmosphere for US business overseas. Where exactly and who is it improving the general atmosphere?

Or it is used to help our allies stabilize parts of the world that would disrupt US business interests if they were regularly in turmoil?

113 billion to stabilize parts of the world  for US business interests?  Again, where exactly?  Is Europe going to stop dealing with us? 

All that money doesnt go overseas without an expectation of a return to the ruling class. 

So when are the companies expecting return on 113 billion going to start seeing it?

I wonder what DeSantis is thinking right now. May be time to put his campaign out of its misery. In the face of him signing a 6 week ban on abortion in Florida earlier, his odds of being elected president even should he miraculously end up the GOP nominee are miniscule.

The Republicans won every single district in Virginia  Biden won in 2020 by 9 or less points. That's not a particularly bad result, or much of a  surprise. 

They lost because of narrow losses in districts that Biden carried by double digits.
