Lover of the Great Smoky Mountains, sunshine, and good books.
I *love* your name! I listened to every single Mrs. Polifax book in my car during a very difficult time in my life and I credit her (and the idea of her) with getting me through it. I agree with you that many more people are gullible than evil.

Swing voters are people who just haven’t found the light yet. Everyone has their own story. They will never be won over if we condemn them from the get-go.

We used to have something called “peaceful transfer of power” which meant the markets, allies, AND enemies (pretty much) knew they could rely on the consistency of the U.S. even during changes of administration. Now we are a freaking banana republic.

Reverse migration, huh? Is he taking volunteers? Is there a cash bonus for our patriotism? Do we get to choose any country we want to migrate to? Can we use Kristi Noem’s jet to get there?

The executive branch was responsible for setting the kindergarten kops loose on our governmental services (and our data) and the executive branch is therefore ultimately responsible for the damage done. 😜

The pandemic spawned a mass migration to my red state and now locals can’t afford to live here. Rent and home purchase prices are far out of reach while the wages haven’t kept up.

Christians, by definition, are those who follow Christ with their whole heart. Not dissect His teachings by whether the Jews did/do those things, too, or not. The Sabbath Day is the Lord’s not the Christians’ or the Jews’. Sorry! Thats my pet peeve. 😅
