I live in Springfield and have also been to Haiti. While the cat eating is true, I’d also like to remind everyone that Haitians largely practice voodoo mixed with their version of Catholicism. Animals will be sacrificed during voodoo rituals. I have heard residents seeing this happen now in their neighborhoods yards. You always hear the voodoo drums in Haiti at night. Voodoo is not religion of peace and love. How would you like to have that next door?
On top of artificially inflated housing costs due to the influx of Haitians with our taxpayer dollars to spend on housing (I personally know individuals who’ve lived here their entire lives being displaced and no longer able to afford housing), the strain on the health system, out of control motor vehicle accidents (with fatalities), a strain on our schools with 1900 new non English speaking students, thefts and safety concerns (people are being surrounded in the local Walmart by Haitians demanding that we hand over money), eating our wildlife and pets, we also have a large portion of our population practicing voodoo. The animal sacrifices are horrifying enough but voodoo is an evil practice borne out of a desire for power and control not love and peace. Our frustration has nothing to do with race. I visited Haiti numerous times over the years with my church out of concern for the people. This is about importing a culture that is dangerous to our way of life and dangerous for our citizens and this is not sustainable. We have 20,000 or more Haitians (they’re still flowing in daily) in a small town of 58,000. They don’t need to assimilate, they are one third of our population and growing. They’re setting up camps on people’s lawns and when asked to leave, they call the police. I’m sorry for the rant. Jenna’s post gave me a good laugh and was most appreciated!
Good grief. Another level of chaos. Evil enters where there is an absence of God and these politicians have well and throughly made sure any sign of Him is erased. Their souls have no borders and they want to make this nation the same way.
YES! When I was in Haiti you could see the remnants of voodoo in the trees and in the way the Haitians attempted to treat injuries and medical conditions. Scary stuff. Despite this, I absolutely loved my two trips to Haiti.
I totally agree with you. However, there are many out there that share the views of the previous commenter, that he is a pathological liar; maybe because the MSM won’t shut up about it and use every opportunity to call him a liar. Unfortunately, many take it at face value and don’t even bother to question it, let alone do their own research. Or, maybe they don’t realize that even if they do their own research and use Google, chances are they’re not going to be able to find the truth anyway. This is an enlightening episode on the Joe Rogan podcast explaining how Google has been interfering in elections since 2012. The guest has ALL the receipts and is admittedly no Trump fan and a former HRC supporter. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Azu8XnZdxeA
What I find utterly baffling and disturbing though, is even if they believe he’s a liar, how can “thoughtful independents” vote against their own interest (e.g. higher wages, low inflation, etc especially since he has a proven policy record to back these promises up) to support a candidate that is also demonstrably a liar and whose own policy actions have resulted in the mess in which we currently find ourselves. It often feels like two alternate versions of reality have collided and Trump supporters inhabit one reality and everybody else lives in some alternate version where things must currently be much better; otherwise, how could anyone think Harris is even qualified to hold the most powerful position in the world (unless you’re a conspiracy theorist, in which case, that position is occupied by the Black Nobility, Committee of 300 or some other shadowy group🤔).
I think its more an "in and out of" mainstream media dichotemy. If you are a conservative or a liberal, you live in two variations of a reality, and. then there is a third, which is reality. The reality is those of us on the outside see a fight between "government" and "government lite." while in reality less government is the answer, Not a slow in the rate of expanding government, but government reduction. This will not happen with either side.
The mayor spoke of cultural clashes. None of this is important. What would have been an effective position and extremely important was to state that sending twenty thousand immigrants to a small community was unsustainable. The rest is noise, guaranteed to piss off the masses. What a poor choice to focus on when an important point was a missed opportunity. America is a country of IMMIGRANTS. Until we understand that and accept that when immigration is done properly and conscientiously, this message won't convince anyone reasonable to vote for Trump, certainly not thoughtful independents who are looking to get behind someone with similar values that they can trust. How can anyone trust a pathological liar? Yes, all politicians lie. Trump is in a class by himself I'm afraid.
I firmly disagree with the constant assertion that Trump lies. A lie is a deliberate distortion of truth and I have never heard him do anything more than exaggerate something he believes. He tells the truth as he sees it, which may not be the way someone else sees it. Kakala, on the other hand, lies constantly, as does Biden. Stories they make up for their own purposes ARE LIES. There is a HUGE difference!
And I’d like to remind everyone MOST people see him as a liar after years of the media grooming us to see this. It’s so ingrained and unfair. You have to start to look closer at the facts and context to see it’s been blown way out of proportion. He is not one of the Top Liars. Not even close.
So agree. Trump will play with some hyperbole, nothing destructive. On the other hand we hear the other side call people Nazis, dictators, fascists, and the beat goes on.
The fact is,life was much better when he was president,and,I can not get passed that. Was I disappointed that certain things he said he would do,didn’t get done? You bet( like send certain people to prison), but, he really moved on some things. More then any president in a long time,imo.
♥ I was much better off financially when he was President. Period. He surrounded himself with dirtbags who pretended they weren't trying to sabotage him. He had extreme hubris at the time, after all, who wouldn't? I would be full of myself if I managed to build an empire like he did. I think something bigger is afoot, but I am not quite sure what the game is yet. I am sure we will find out. I do not think anything said or done by Trump is accidental. Not all spies and infiltrators are on the side of TPoS (The Party of Satan) I just made that up, because let's face it....it is good vs. evil now. Just because there is an R next to a name does not automatically mean they are righteous. And there are also good democrats as well. Just waiting for them to come out of the closet...and not in stolen heels either.
I used to say that,all the time! That he is playing with these stupid comments for some sort of “long game”. That he was too smart to act so stupid…but, I’ve become a burnt out with waiting for the “White hats “ make their move.Because,I don’t believe DJT has as much power as some think..though,he seemed to be a good president ….
In the meantime,my beautiful town is falling into the hands of developers with no oversight,the city council is letting them build humongous multi story(6😳) box buildings in the old town, where everything is one story. No parking. Not enough water. All the small businesses are failing…I suppose it’s been naïve of me to believe in “White hats planning a long game to save us”after all..🤷♀️
I used to believe there was some method to the madness, too... but DAMN how bad does it have to get before someone blows the whistle?!!? Towns EVERYWHERE are turning to shit. Downtown Austin looks like a homeless camp. Last time I was in Santa Barbara, I left downtown because I couldn't stand the urine stench (and I'm from NEW YORK). Any day now, guys! We're ready!
♥ I think there are white hats. I didn't for a while, but God wins in the end and we will have to go through some bad shit first. Trump didn't get such an empire by being a big mouth idiot, so I am thinking long game as well. And, we don't have hope in a man anyway. But God can certainly use a very imperfect man like David to save a nation. Did you know that over 90% of God stuff comes out of the USA? That is enough of a reason for Satan to want it gone.
Not only is it unsustainable but it’s racist in and of itself. Why not send them to the neighborhoods and cities the politicians live in. Good for thee but not for me? That’s social class bigotry. And their b.s. that they are picking locations in need of a work force is not fooling anyone. It’s no coincidence the towns they are sent to are places they themselves would never visit much less live in, that they probably have a disdain for anyway.
Juju- I am an Ohioan and live about 45 minutes from Springfield. Our governor, DeWine (who I cannot stand at all- his Covid policy was unbearable) lives in Cedarville which is very close to Springfield. The governor could easily see what’s going on if he wanted to.
Martha’s Vineyard would be astonishing,but,of course, that would never happen.
It reminds me of some family doing the “tourist thing”, last week. They wanted to go to San Francisco. I said “it may not be the city you remember “, but,I have not gone to my beloved birth city in many years. I have seen much decline,from others,and,have no need,currently . However,when I asked them about ,their visit to the many tourist places,like North Beach,and St,Peters,and, Paul cathedral ( and,the little park) China town, Fisherman’s Warf( I don’t believe IT was fine) the Haight,,Coit Tower, they said it was FINE.Not camped in..Not overrun with homeless….I have seen the videos of the closing of Embarcadero center,Downtown market street,the mission,and,it is NOT fine! But,I guess” “they” are keeping the tourist areas out of the worst of it..and,Martha’s Vineyard will also stay “fine”..
Ugh…we used to go to The City once a month and stop at The Nut Tree on the way over. Hubs and I dated and spent many dates there. It is not the same place at all and it is very sad. I loved Fishermans Wharf and Grotto #9 and the blue carpet with the fishermen in yellow slickers and the Shrimp Louies with SF sourdough. Now it is like a huge weird disneyland there with pier 39 and all that.
Yep. I spent my youth working and playing in those very spots,and enjoyed those very same things…I remember,about 20+ years ago,before things got so horribly different,I began to notice the streets were failing. Not maintained,pot holes,even Van Ness,such an important through way,was bad. I started saying something was wrong. But,I no longer LIVED in SF and certainly wasn’t partying in the tourist spots,anymore. So,the “Epic fail” of my beautiful SF occurred,and,I don’t think there is any way it’s coming back. I played music as a “roving minstral “ for the grand opening week of the Embarcadero center,and,worked there for many years. Now,the EMbarcadero is completely EMPTY,if you can believe it…and,oddly,the plants in the planter boxes are still maintained,there’s no homelessness in the very appealing empty hallways…it’s weird how some places are left unspoiled.
It looks like those empty,but,pristine cities in China 😳
Are there people left who still believe in honest politicians? Speaking of pathological lying, hasn’t Kamala been part of one continuous con of the American people as it relates to the cognitive challenges of the current “President”? The current Administration, including Harris even though she would like people to forget she is actually part of the current Administration, not to mention David Muir (totally unbiased debate moderator) accused Trump of lying when he said crime had gone up under Biden/Harris. Well it turns out that was not, in fact, a lie but is a factual statement. According to a post by Jeff Childers, a Substack author, citing a Washington Times article from yesterday, which used data from DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics
“A expert cited for the story concluded violent crime has increased overall by +37% under the Biden Administration, compared to a drop of -17% under the Trump Administration. Aggravated assaults fell by -24% under Trump, but accelerated +55% under Biden. Robbery reduced -6% under Trump, but rose +63% under Biden. Rape ran flat under Trump, but rose +42% under Biden”
I would think thoughtful Independents would prefer to live in a country with lower crime; higher wages; lower inflation (which Harris also lies about); fewer dollars going to support an unwinnable war which may migrate to our borders if the Biden/Harris Administration doesn’t stop poking the proverbial bear; an end to unsustainable ILLEGAL immigration (if for no other reason than, according to Kamala, “nobody should be above the law”—says the person who put out a plea on X for money to bail BLM rioters out of jail and has allowed 10-20 million unvetted people to iILLEGALLY cross our border and stay here) resulting in chaos in multiple cities across the country; no fear of being mandated to stick an mRNA needle in the arm and hope/pray for the best as you watch previously healthy people dropping dead around you or being stricken with turbo cancer, myocarditis, blood clots, heart attack, etc.
If instead, those thoughtful independents prefer a continuation of the last 3 1/2 years (or worse), to having a President who may stretch the truth or mean tweet about someone, that is certainly their prerogative. It’s just unfortunate (and infuriating) that those of us who value policy actions and measurable results over words, will end up forced to inhabit the nightmare created by a Harris Presidency right along with those thoughtful independents that can’t recognize, or choose not to acknowledge, Harris’ lies and demonstrably terrible record because “orange Man bad”. In fact, if you believe the 2020 election was “fair”, it was those same thoughtful independents that got us into this mess in the first place.
It’s actually been refreshing having more people fact check Trump PROPERLY these days. The more people wake up, they are the ones that know what to look for and they are the ones uncovering that he told the truth. I’ve been watching closely the past month and every single lie he is accused of has been debunked and not a single one was found to be a lie. He is telling us the truth, or at least what he believes to be true in some instances. How’s that possible if he truly were “the liar” everyone thinks he is? No way could he go a full month without being called out on some kind of significant lie meant to hurt or deceive the public. They try, but it all falls flat. Just look at Kamala and her campaign and the media. They can’t go a day without creating or parroting a lie.
And the lies the other side tells are cruel, meant to remove your rights, meant to hurt someone deeply. If Trump did lie, it would never be of that caliber.
We all need to take a closer look at why we think what we do about him and fact check what’s feeding our belief.
Having done (animal) rescue work for years, I found this disgusting story almost unbearable to research. My imagination went wild with what I would do if the situation arose and I discovered someone killed and ate my cat or dog. It was not pretty.
Thank you for doing the research for me, and once again, revealing the unbelievable manipulation and lies on the Left. How was I so naive for so many years? We need you Jenna!
Excellent; loved (Trump may have bombed that debate, but this won’t be his last rodeo. Besides, one carefully scripted response or surprisingly not-awful performance does not a president make. (Recall if you will that in 2016, Killary was crowned the debate winner sixty-two to twenty-seven percent.) And as my astute subscribers know, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. ;)
debate was 3 on one fast break(basketball analogy); ABC is disgusting and totally biased. Not one fact check of the cackling one, not one; she lied through her teeth and smugged her way through; Pathetic..
Trump could have been better, way better; he was not. Sigh; He is not the best debator.( he has policies and experience, the cackler has "JOY and values; ugh)).
BUT we Know what to expect from the cackler; No border, millions more ILLEGALS swamping this country ( billions given to them); rampant inflation; economy in the tank, no energy policy except windmills ( like Don Quixote ) powering us; laughable.
wake the ffffffffffffffffffffffffup USA people; or give up and go be the ostrich........
I lived in Mexico City in 1967, attending the University of the Americas working toward an MFA. I lived with a woman named Senora Gaos, who ran the Student Center and had a large Burmese cat she had named Tufeek. (sp) She frequently mentioned worrying constantly that if he got out of her house other residents would eat him. My friend, another boarder who was a Franciscan Nun at the time, and I both enjoyed Tufeek’s company so we were careful not to let him out. He would often appear when we were eating, sit in a chair beside me, and gently touch me with a paw, telling me he expected a share of my food, and I obliged him. If the interval between bites was too long, he would very gently and politely touch my arm with his paw again.
AMEN times infinity. (And I was holding my breath reading your comment praying nothing unspeakable happened to Tufeek!!!) Also my cat Harvey Specter does the EXACT same thing. Always gently and irresistibly. :)
So true. I spent a good 20 minutes when I woke up this morning letting my sweet beautiful fluffy bright eyed Katniss chase my hand and feet that I playfully moved around under my covers. Seeing her attack them like they were some pesky rodent yet her knowing full well it’s my hand or foot. She loves the game. Then at the end she slowly moved up to my head and cleaned my pony tail. ❤️ It’s so adorable the love and playfulness. (I might add it “could” just be her morning strategy to get me to put food in her bowl 😂)
Your paragraph about being a beef eater in India is THE point to be made by everyone having this conversation. It is NOT racist to point out cultural differences with regard to food choices. That is the culture OVER THERE and WHILE THERE you would NEVER break into someone’s yard, butcher their cow (Grandpa!) and eat it in front of them. Just like you don’t snatch up federally protected animals and bbq them in front of everyone. If an American did that they would not only have the police on them, but city and county attorneys, and likely federal charges brought. Yet these people (in your face to demoralize you and everyone else) are not only free to do so, but are doing it in a home you can’t afford, with bbq sauce paid for with your tax dollars, while wearing clothing you provided and driving a better car than you. Is anyone mad yet? When will enough be enough?
I have been to Haiti twice. Our adopted daughter who is now in heaven was Haitian. I have a huge heart for Haiti and the Haitian people. The second I heard these stories coming out of Springfield, I knew it was true. Why? Because of what I saw in Haiti. There are so few birds in Haiti. Like hardly any. It was rare to see one because they kill them. They hate dogs. The dogs in Haiti are strays and skinny (they don’t have food either). They don’t have traffic laws or decent roads and it’s terrifying to drive around Haiti. I heard they are going into stores and eating whatever they want as if it’s all free. In Haiti the stores (they look more like little convenient stores than the local Walmart) are all guarded with a guy with a machine gun. Imagine being hungry and then realizing that there isn’t a man with a machine gun to stop you from helping yourself. I am not excusing any of this behavior, but what the actual heck did they think would happen?! They knew. They absolutely do not care.
Yes,of course they knew…and,many,many Americans are going into stores and helping themselves to whatever they want,too!
Yesterday,in the local Lucky store,2 young teens walked in,loaded a shopping bag with candy,walked out,opening and eating some… the manager ( a older man) did go hollering after them. They stopped,completely bored,handed him a few candy bars back,and,kept walking!! This is a very wealthy county in California. In my town,businesses are closing,left and right. Management is told NOT to stop thieves. I believe the agenda is to push everyone out,or,into tiny,controlled 15 minute areas,then “they “ buy up,or otherwise acquire all this beautiful land for themselves..😤
Wow I just need to come here to regroup, take a breath. Get a hug. 🤣
I stood up for my beliefs about abortion on X last night, and my values are somewhat center/conservative. Not extreme conservative. But this election is NOT about abortion at all, not like they are all making it to be. They want it to be about that. The right for a woman to do with her body what she chooses and to have medical choices is the most crazy argument in light of the fact that ALL of them supported Covid mandates and social shaming and destruction of anyone that chose differently. They don’t hear themselves and the hypocrisy. They are making this issue far more important than ALL the truly critical issues we are faced with today. It’s unconscionable.
They will never understand why it’s best left at the state level.
I had to block sooooo many people this morning. My account was flagged somehow and it’s a monkey pile. They just keep coming. I am a NOBODY account. Less that 50-some followers at most. 🤣 Without flagging me nobody really ever sees ANY of my posts. Maybe two people a day. Lol I post only to satisfy my need to speak into the void, not really believing I’ll be heard. But the minute it’s about abortion? OMG!! An army is hunting me down. Why don’t they defend innocent lives of a baby/child/adult, as fervently as they do a women’s right “to choose”?
Anyway, I’ve never been targeted like this before. I had to block over 70-some accounts to just get out of the insanity. And it’s still not over. Evil people.
That is insane. And I was literally just having the same argument via email with another subscriber… They want to make it about abortion because it is so incredibly divisive.🙄
Sick. And people who will never face this will make it a platform to vote for or against any candidate. Sick effs. I wrote this...and tough shit who likes it or not because it's between me and God.
I had hoped that Kennedy would have a positive influence on Trump's debate performance. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. Trump's behavior continues to embarrass me. Yes, one can say it's the positions that we must vote for but he's not even describing those sufficiently. His negatively is so disturbing. Rather than describe the Haitians as horrible, cat and geese eating, illegal people, he blew the opportunity to criticize the administration for putting 20.000 displaced immigrants into a financially challenged community that couldn't handle such an influx. I'm so disturbed by his continuing inappropriate behavior. He also missed the chance to bring up censorship and the epidemic of chronic diseases among our children. Those were all such important issues that independents are concerned about. Instead, he made a fool of himself once again. Kennedy sacrificed himself in the hopes of encouraging his independent followers to join him. I'm gravely concerned that was a poorly considered plan.
For years I've been praying that SOMEONE IN HIS CIRCLE could talk some basic common sense into him. Still waiting. At the end of the day though, I'll take Trump/Kennedy over Kackala ALL DAY LONG.
With Trump, what we see is a CEO behind the scenes, but up front and center. He is not trying to sell "Joy" like the other side. Whatever that is. If we take a look at behavior can we consider what Hillary and the Dems did to Trump. Starting with the fabricated Russian Dossier, the Impeachment from a phone call to Ukraine (so much to hide). Then came the indictments, mainly for a book keeping error and questioning the 2020 election. The 51 Intel Operatives that claimed Hunter's Lap Top is fake news...stating: "Having the earmarks of Russian Disinformation." All lies. Who truly has the bad behavior. Criminal behavior, that is. I would like to polish the apple too, but I get it.
Making excuses for Trump won't solve the problem Michael nor will criticizing dems. If you want to evaluate him as a CEO - his history of bankruptcies - PLURAL, negates that positive opinion. In addition, he added more to the debt than any other president in history. What really is impossible for me to understand is that his tax cuts to his friends, the millionaires and billionaires of America cost us taxpayers enormous amounts of money. In exchange, the middle class got a few thousand. That's a horrible deal from any vantage point. As you're still talking about Hunters laptop, you clearly don't have a clue of what's important. Trump needs the independent voters, of which I am one. He will never get them, even with Kennedy on board, if he continues to behave like a child.
Hunter's Laptop IS important because it's proof of deep state lies and desperation. It's real, it's damning, and they lied about it. KAMALA IS PART OF THEM. Come January, we are going to have one or the other--and nothing terrifies me more than the thought of HER (because she is of course just a puppet/front for the global agenda).
No excuses, simply historical facts. Independent Voters or disgruntled Democratic Voters, not sure of the linage. Time will tell, but a vote for the VP that helped lead these last 3.5 years seems a bit ill researched.
It’s true, I think it’s the influence of the most wonderful optimist on the internet because I read you also read him: Coffee & COVID’s very own Jeff Childers! 🎉🎉🎉
You’re starting to sound like him with your humor. 🤗☕️❤️☀️
The meme war doesn’t require weapons but still the Left Can’t Meme.
Question: why don’t the citizens use guns to defend their lawns and pussies?
Yes! I was thinking how blessed we on Substack all are, for being able to put two and two together, you know, with respect to vaccines and adverse reactions when so many can’t see it. Blessed!
The mindset of the legal immigration of our great-great-grandparents was assimilation. There is NONE of this with the illegals. And they don't care. Coming across a border was their first illegal act, and with no law enforcement to deter further illegals acts it is just going to get worse. And the culture clashes will be horrendous and the collateral damage is going to be greater than we can imagine. We are being erased. Americans are being erased. America is being erased. I saw a Bald Eagle today sitting on a big lamp post. It was being harrassed by a crow or two, but it just sat there. The crows kept doing what crows do, and still it just sat calmly on the pole. I thought what an appropriate thing to see today. So, maybe it was God telling me that this eagle will rise up? Because those crows obviously are stupid crows because that eagle could have easily made mincemeat out of them, yet they kept it up.
Immigration is not only a problem in the US. European people are having enough of all the problems that come with a mass influx of diverse cultures who will not/cannot integrate into the host culture.
I read today, somewhere that Sweden is offering immigrants a ton of money to go elsewhere. Problem is, they will then receive a large amount of money, perhaps only to re enter the same country.
I believe many countries are scratching their heads, the UK too, understanding that perhaps it wasn’t such a good idea after all. But how to save face in this respect without earning the ire of social activists?
"Gotcha. Similarly, “No selfies of the suspect robbing the bank were uploaded to social media.” "
A bit off topic but I am close to a kidnap victim who's attackers actually posted to social media throughout his hours long ordeal. These are not the brightest people!
Consider that PDJT leaves the topic open ended so that we citizens, and substack moderators, can do some of our own thinking ( and writing )........gotta have something to mull over with my AM java!
I have been a bit of a human slump! No probs, tho! Right fecking here jabbing like a girl should be. Hahahaha. We suck. Do you seriously think that The Cackling Moron can run anything? Serious fecking question.
Since DJT opened my eyes to the very real existence (ignore it at your peril) of the Deep State, Presidents have been more in the line of poseurs than runners, content to let all their appointees do the thinking and policy-making while they strut, puffy-chest.
Trump was surprised to find out how difficult changing the direction of the "ship of state" was, and although he was able to quickly fire department heads in his cabinet, his reach didn't go much deeper (where it is desperately needed). (Who cares if you say you're going to "play the major cities along the western seaboard" if the bus driver only ever takes you to Cleve-land?)
I am still in a human slump, but have somewhat recovered ! David Nelson! My new favorite man! Stand tall, young man Please know that this was the one reason for me to think that surviving was an option. Can you wake up tomorrow and check a vote for that moron. If, so, I won't be joining you in Hell
I live in Springfield and have also been to Haiti. While the cat eating is true, I’d also like to remind everyone that Haitians largely practice voodoo mixed with their version of Catholicism. Animals will be sacrificed during voodoo rituals. I have heard residents seeing this happen now in their neighborhoods yards. You always hear the voodoo drums in Haiti at night. Voodoo is not religion of peace and love. How would you like to have that next door?

On top of artificially inflated housing costs due to the influx of Haitians with our taxpayer dollars to spend on housing (I personally know individuals who’ve lived here their entire lives being displaced and no longer able to afford housing), the strain on the health system, out of control motor vehicle accidents (with fatalities), a strain on our schools with 1900 new non English speaking students, thefts and safety concerns (people are being surrounded in the local Walmart by Haitians demanding that we hand over money), eating our wildlife and pets, we also have a large portion of our population practicing voodoo. The animal sacrifices are horrifying enough but voodoo is an evil practice borne out of a desire for power and control not love and peace. Our frustration has nothing to do with race. I visited Haiti numerous times over the years with my church out of concern for the people. This is about importing a culture that is dangerous to our way of life and dangerous for our citizens and this is not sustainable. We have 20,000 or more Haitians (they’re still flowing in daily) in a small town of 58,000. They don’t need to assimilate, they are one third of our population and growing. They’re setting up camps on people’s lawns and when asked to leave, they call the police. I’m sorry for the rant. Jenna’s post gave me a good laugh and was most appreciated!
Julie, I'm afraid to "Like" because the context suggests that I _would_ "like to have that next door."
(I'm just shutting my eyes and "Like"-ing anyway; HANG the consequences.)
You’re a brave man!
My older device will not allow me to use the “like” buttons,so,I must tell you in the comments. Consider it “liked”:)
Mine either. I use Brave on an older yaptop. But ♥
Was just going to post this. Glad you did. Here’s a guy explaining this pretty clearly:

Good grief. Another level of chaos. Evil enters where there is an absence of God and these politicians have well and throughly made sure any sign of Him is erased. Their souls have no borders and they want to make this nation the same way.
Amen SadieJay
Yikes!
YES! When I was in Haiti you could see the remnants of voodoo in the trees and in the way the Haitians attempted to treat injuries and medical conditions. Scary stuff. Despite this, I absolutely loved my two trips to Haiti.
I will be praying for those in Springfield. This is just evil.
I totally agree with you. However, there are many out there that share the views of the previous commenter, that he is a pathological liar; maybe because the MSM won’t shut up about it and use every opportunity to call him a liar.

What I find utterly baffling and disturbing though, is even if they believe he’s a liar, how can “thoughtful independents” vote against their own interest (e.g. higher wages, low inflation, etc especially since he has a proven policy record to back these promises up) to support a candidate that is also demonstrably a liar and whose own policy actions have resulted in the mess in which we currently find ourselves. It often feels like two alternate versions of reality have collided and Trump supporters inhabit one reality and everybody else lives in some alternate version where things must currently be much better; otherwise, how could anyone think Harris is even qualified to hold the most powerful position in the world (unless you’re a conspiracy theorist, in which case, that position is occupied by the Black Nobility, Committee of 300 or some other shadowy group🤔).
It depends.
I think its more an "in and out of" mainstream media dichotemy. If you are a conservative or a liberal, you live in two variations of a reality, and. then there is a third, which is reality. The reality is those of us on the outside see a fight between "government" and "government lite." while in reality less government is the answer, Not a slow in the rate of expanding government, but government reduction. This will not happen with either side.
The mayor spoke of cultural clashes. None of this is important. What would have been an effective position and extremely important was to state that sending twenty thousand immigrants to a small community was unsustainable. The rest is noise, guaranteed to piss off the masses. What a poor choice to focus on when an important point was a missed opportunity. America is a country of IMMIGRANTS. Until we understand that and accept that when immigration is done properly and conscientiously, this message won't convince anyone reasonable to vote for Trump, certainly not thoughtful independents who are looking to get behind someone with similar values that they can trust. How can anyone trust a pathological liar? Yes, all politicians lie. Trump is in a class by himself I'm afraid.
I'd call Top Liar a dead heat between Trump and Kackala, frankly, but otherwise I agree with your points.
I firmly disagree with the constant assertion that Trump lies. A lie is a deliberate distortion of truth and I have never heard him do anything more than exaggerate something he believes. He tells the truth as he sees it, which may not be the way someone else sees it. Kakala, on the other hand, lies constantly, as does Biden. Stories they make up for their own purposes ARE LIES. There is a HUGE difference!
And I’d like to remind everyone MOST people see him as a liar after years of the media grooming us to see this. It’s so ingrained and unfair. You have to start to look closer at the facts and context to see it’s been blown way out of proportion. He is not one of the Top Liars. Not even close.
Absolutely agree!
Agree Juju
So agree. Trump will play with some hyperbole, nothing destructive. On the other hand we hear the other side call people Nazis, dictators, fascists, and the beat goes on.
I agree!
The fact is,life was much better when he was president,and,I can not get passed that. Was I disappointed that certain things he said he would do,didn’t get done? You bet( like send certain people to prison), but, he really moved on some things. More then any president in a long time,imo.
This post was to Rebecca’s comment…
♥ I was much better off financially when he was President. Period. He surrounded himself with dirtbags who pretended they weren't trying to sabotage him. He had extreme hubris at the time, after all, who wouldn't? I would be full of myself if I managed to build an empire like he did. I think something bigger is afoot, but I am not quite sure what the game is yet. I am sure we will find out. I do not think anything said or done by Trump is accidental. Not all spies and infiltrators are on the side of TPoS (The Party of Satan) I just made that up, because let's face it....it is good vs. evil now. Just because there is an R next to a name does not automatically mean they are righteous. And there are also good democrats as well. Just waiting for them to come out of the closet...and not in stolen heels either.
I used to say that,all the time! That he is playing with these stupid comments for some sort of “long game”. That he was too smart to act so stupid…but, I’ve become a burnt out with waiting for the “White hats “ make their move.Because,I don’t believe DJT has as much power as some think..though,he seemed to be a good president ….
In the meantime,my beautiful town is falling into the hands of developers with no oversight,the city council is letting them build humongous multi story(6😳) box buildings in the old town, where everything is one story. No parking. Not enough water. All the small businesses are failing…I suppose it’s been naïve of me to believe in “White hats planning a long game to save us”after all..🤷♀️
I used to believe there was some method to the madness, too... but DAMN how bad does it have to get before someone blows the whistle?!!? Towns EVERYWHERE are turning to shit. Downtown Austin looks like a homeless camp. Last time I was in Santa Barbara, I left downtown because I couldn't stand the urine stench (and I'm from NEW YORK). Any day now, guys! We're ready!
♥ I think there are white hats. I didn't for a while, but God wins in the end and we will have to go through some bad shit first. Trump didn't get such an empire by being a big mouth idiot, so I am thinking long game as well. And, we don't have hope in a man anyway. But God can certainly use a very imperfect man like David to save a nation. Did you know that over 90% of God stuff comes out of the USA? That is enough of a reason for Satan to want it gone.
Not only is it unsustainable but it’s racist in and of itself. Why not send them to the neighborhoods and cities the politicians live in. Good for thee but not for me? That’s social class bigotry. And their b.s. that they are picking locations in need of a work force is not fooling anyone. It’s no coincidence the towns they are sent to are places they themselves would never visit much less live in, that they probably have a disdain for anyway.
Juju- I am an Ohioan and live about 45 minutes from Springfield. Our governor, DeWine (who I cannot stand at all- his Covid policy was unbearable) lives in Cedarville which is very close to Springfield. The governor could easily see what’s going on if he wanted to.
Right? So why not drop them in his neck of the woods? Social class. Period
Brentwood would be a perfect place.
Meowthas Viineyard.
Martha’s Vineyard would be astonishing,but,of course, that would never happen.
It reminds me of some family doing the “tourist thing”, last week. They wanted to go to San Francisco. I said “it may not be the city you remember “, but,I have not gone to my beloved birth city in many years. I have seen much decline,from others,and,have no need,currently . However,when I asked them about ,their visit to the many tourist places,like North Beach,and St,Peters,and, Paul cathedral ( and,the little park) China town, Fisherman’s Warf( I don’t believe IT was fine) the Haight,,Coit Tower, they said it was FINE.Not camped in..Not overrun with homeless….I have seen the videos of the closing of Embarcadero center,Downtown market street,the mission,and,it is NOT fine! But,I guess” “they” are keeping the tourist areas out of the worst of it..and,Martha’s Vineyard will also stay “fine”..
Ugh…we used to go to The City once a month and stop at The Nut Tree on the way over. Hubs and I dated and spent many dates there. It is not the same place at all and it is very sad. I loved Fishermans Wharf and Grotto #9 and the blue carpet with the fishermen in yellow slickers and the Shrimp Louies with SF sourdough. Now it is like a huge weird disneyland there with pier 39 and all that.
Yep. I spent my youth working and playing in those very spots,and enjoyed those very same things…I remember,about 20+ years ago,before things got so horribly different,I began to notice the streets were failing. Not maintained,pot holes,even Van Ness,such an important through way,was bad. I started saying something was wrong. But,I no longer LIVED in SF and certainly wasn’t partying in the tourist spots,anymore. So,the “Epic fail” of my beautiful SF occurred,and,I don’t think there is any way it’s coming back. I played music as a “roving minstral “ for the grand opening week of the Embarcadero center,and,worked there for many years. Now,the EMbarcadero is completely EMPTY,if you can believe it…and,oddly,the plants in the planter boxes are still maintained,there’s no homelessness in the very appealing empty hallways…it’s weird how some places are left unspoiled.
It looks like those empty,but,pristine cities in China 😳
Are there people left who still believe in honest politicians? Speaking of pathological lying, hasn’t Kamala been part of one continuous con of the American people as it relates to the cognitive challenges of the current “President”? The current Administration, including Harris even though she would like people to forget she is actually part of the current Administration, not to mention David Muir (totally unbiased debate moderator) accused Trump of lying when he said crime had gone up under Biden/Harris. Well it turns out that was not, in fact, a lie but is a factual statement. According to a post by Jeff Childers, a Substack author, citing a Washington Times article from yesterday, which used data from DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics
“A expert cited for the story concluded violent crime has increased overall by +37% under the Biden Administration, compared to a drop of -17% under the Trump Administration. Aggravated assaults fell by -24% under Trump, but accelerated +55% under Biden. Robbery reduced -6% under Trump, but rose +63% under Biden. Rape ran flat under Trump, but rose +42% under Biden”
I would think thoughtful Independents would prefer to live in a country with lower crime; higher wages; lower inflation (which Harris also lies about); fewer dollars going to support an unwinnable war which may migrate to our borders if the Biden/Harris Administration doesn’t stop poking the proverbial bear; an end to unsustainable ILLEGAL immigration (if for no other reason than, according to Kamala, “nobody should be above the law”—says the person who put out a plea on X for money to bail BLM rioters out of jail and has allowed 10-20 million unvetted people to iILLEGALLY cross our border and stay here) resulting in chaos in multiple cities across the country; no fear of being mandated to stick an mRNA needle in the arm and hope/pray for the best as you watch previously healthy people dropping dead around you or being stricken with turbo cancer, myocarditis, blood clots, heart attack, etc.
If instead, those thoughtful independents prefer a continuation of the last 3 1/2 years (or worse), to having a President who may stretch the truth or mean tweet about someone, that is certainly their prerogative. It’s just unfortunate (and infuriating) that those of us who value policy actions and measurable results over words, will end up forced to inhabit the nightmare created by a Harris Presidency right along with those thoughtful independents that can’t recognize, or choose not to acknowledge, Harris’ lies and demonstrably terrible record because “orange Man bad”. In fact, if you believe the 2020 election was “fair”, it was those same thoughtful independents that got us into this mess in the first place.
It’s actually been refreshing having more people fact check Trump PROPERLY these days. The more people wake up, they are the ones that know what to look for and they are the ones uncovering that he told the truth. I’ve been watching closely the past month and every single lie he is accused of has been debunked and not a single one was found to be a lie. He is telling us the truth, or at least what he believes to be true in some instances. How’s that possible if he truly were “the liar” everyone thinks he is? No way could he go a full month without being called out on some kind of significant lie meant to hurt or deceive the public. They try, but it all falls flat. Just look at Kamala and her campaign and the media. They can’t go a day without creating or parroting a lie.
And the lies the other side tells are cruel, meant to remove your rights, meant to hurt someone deeply. If Trump did lie, it would never be of that caliber.
We all need to take a closer look at why we think what we do about him and fact check what’s feeding our belief.
Límite g this does not imply that one would like to have this activity going on next door to y’all! Just sayin…
I wouldn’t
Is the next Democrat slogan going to be :
Kamala - putting pussy back on the menu
🤔
Having done (animal) rescue work for years, I found this disgusting story almost unbearable to research. My imagination went wild with what I would do if the situation arose and I discovered someone killed and ate my cat or dog. It was not pretty.
Thank you for doing the research for me, and once again, revealing the unbelievable manipulation and lies on the Left. How was I so naive for so many years? We need you Jenna!
Thanks Isabel. 😊 My pets are up there with my kids on the “don’t even THINK about effing with them” list, too.💪💪💪
I was kinda liking Rogan, but after his comment about eating his dog, I’m having second thoughts.
Excellent; loved (Trump may have bombed that debate, but this won’t be his last rodeo. Besides, one carefully scripted response or surprisingly not-awful performance does not a president make. (Recall if you will that in 2016, Killary was crowned the debate winner sixty-two to twenty-seven percent.) And as my astute subscribers know, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. ;)
debate was 3 on one fast break(basketball analogy); ABC is disgusting and totally biased. Not one fact check of the cackling one, not one; she lied through her teeth and smugged her way through; Pathetic..
Trump could have been better, way better; he was not. Sigh; He is not the best debator.( he has policies and experience, the cackler has "JOY and values; ugh)).
BUT we Know what to expect from the cackler; No border, millions more ILLEGALS swamping this country ( billions given to them); rampant inflation; economy in the tank, no energy policy except windmills ( like Don Quixote ) powering us; laughable.
wake the ffffffffffffffffffffffffup USA people; or give up and go be the ostrich........
Respectfully....
I lived in Mexico City in 1967, attending the University of the Americas working toward an MFA. I lived with a woman named Senora Gaos, who ran the Student Center and had a large Burmese cat she had named Tufeek. (sp) She frequently mentioned worrying constantly that if he got out of her house other residents would eat him. My friend, another boarder who was a Franciscan Nun at the time, and I both enjoyed Tufeek’s company so we were careful not to let him out. He would often appear when we were eating, sit in a chair beside me, and gently touch me with a paw, telling me he expected a share of my food, and I obliged him. If the interval between bites was too long, he would very gently and politely touch my arm with his paw again.
Eating people’s pets is no laughing matter.
AMEN times infinity. (And I was holding my breath reading your comment praying nothing unspeakable happened to Tufeek!!!) Also my cat Harvey Specter does the EXACT same thing. Always gently and irresistibly. :)
So was I!! Whew…
So true. I spent a good 20 minutes when I woke up this morning letting my sweet beautiful fluffy bright eyed Katniss chase my hand and feet that I playfully moved around under my covers. Seeing her attack them like they were some pesky rodent yet her knowing full well it’s my hand or foot. She loves the game. Then at the end she slowly moved up to my head and cleaned my pony tail. ❤️ It’s so adorable the love and playfulness. (I might add it “could” just be her morning strategy to get me to put food in her bowl 😂)
Sooo sweet!
Your paragraph about being a beef eater in India is THE point to be made by everyone having this conversation. It is NOT racist to point out cultural differences with regard to food choices. That is the culture OVER THERE and WHILE THERE you would NEVER break into someone’s yard, butcher their cow (Grandpa!) and eat it in front of them. Just like you don’t snatch up federally protected animals and bbq them in front of everyone. If an American did that they would not only have the police on them, but city and county attorneys, and likely federal charges brought. Yet these people (in your face to demoralize you and everyone else) are not only free to do so, but are doing it in a home you can’t afford, with bbq sauce paid for with your tax dollars, while wearing clothing you provided and driving a better car than you. Is anyone mad yet? When will enough be enough?
🤬🙋♀️
I’m certainly mad!
I have been to Haiti twice. Our adopted daughter who is now in heaven was Haitian. I have a huge heart for Haiti and the Haitian people. The second I heard these stories coming out of Springfield, I knew it was true. Why? Because of what I saw in Haiti. There are so few birds in Haiti. Like hardly any. It was rare to see one because they kill them. They hate dogs. The dogs in Haiti are strays and skinny (they don’t have food either). They don’t have traffic laws or decent roads and it’s terrifying to drive around Haiti. I heard they are going into stores and eating whatever they want as if it’s all free. In Haiti the stores (they look more like little convenient stores than the local Walmart) are all guarded with a guy with a machine gun. Imagine being hungry and then realizing that there isn’t a man with a machine gun to stop you from helping yourself. I am not excusing any of this behavior, but what the actual heck did they think would happen?! They knew. They absolutely do not care.
Ree, every word of this comment broke my heart. You are absolutely correct and I am deeply sorry for the loss of your daughter.
Thank you, Jenna. Someday I am going to tell her story. She was an absolute joy.
Yes,of course they knew…and,many,many Americans are going into stores and helping themselves to whatever they want,too!
Yesterday,in the local Lucky store,2 young teens walked in,loaded a shopping bag with candy,walked out,opening and eating some… the manager ( a older man) did go hollering after them. They stopped,completely bored,handed him a few candy bars back,and,kept walking!! This is a very wealthy county in California. In my town,businesses are closing,left and right. Management is told NOT to stop thieves. I believe the agenda is to push everyone out,or,into tiny,controlled 15 minute areas,then “they “ buy up,or otherwise acquire all this beautiful land for themselves..😤
But,hey,everything is OKAY 🤯
How can ANYONE in their right mind support this administration? Oh yeah, they really really really need to be able to kill babies.🤬
Wow I just need to come here to regroup, take a breath. Get a hug. 🤣
I stood up for my beliefs about abortion on X last night, and my values are somewhat center/conservative. Not extreme conservative. But this election is NOT about abortion at all, not like they are all making it to be. They want it to be about that. The right for a woman to do with her body what she chooses and to have medical choices is the most crazy argument in light of the fact that ALL of them supported Covid mandates and social shaming and destruction of anyone that chose differently. They don’t hear themselves and the hypocrisy. They are making this issue far more important than ALL the truly critical issues we are faced with today. It’s unconscionable.
They will never understand why it’s best left at the state level.
I had to block sooooo many people this morning. My account was flagged somehow and it’s a monkey pile. They just keep coming. I am a NOBODY account. Less that 50-some followers at most. 🤣 Without flagging me nobody really ever sees ANY of my posts. Maybe two people a day. Lol I post only to satisfy my need to speak into the void, not really believing I’ll be heard. But the minute it’s about abortion? OMG!! An army is hunting me down. Why don’t they defend innocent lives of a baby/child/adult, as fervently as they do a women’s right “to choose”?
Anyway, I’ve never been targeted like this before. I had to block over 70-some accounts to just get out of the insanity. And it’s still not over. Evil people.
That is insane. And I was literally just having the same argument via email with another subscriber… They want to make it about abortion because it is so incredibly divisive.🙄
Sick. And people who will never face this will make it a platform to vote for or against any candidate. Sick effs. I wrote this...and tough shit who likes it or not because it's between me and God.

I had hoped that Kennedy would have a positive influence on Trump's debate performance. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. Trump's behavior continues to embarrass me. Yes, one can say it's the positions that we must vote for but he's not even describing those sufficiently. His negatively is so disturbing. Rather than describe the Haitians as horrible, cat and geese eating, illegal people, he blew the opportunity to criticize the administration for putting 20.000 displaced immigrants into a financially challenged community that couldn't handle such an influx. I'm so disturbed by his continuing inappropriate behavior. He also missed the chance to bring up censorship and the epidemic of chronic diseases among our children. Those were all such important issues that independents are concerned about. Instead, he made a fool of himself once again. Kennedy sacrificed himself in the hopes of encouraging his independent followers to join him. I'm gravely concerned that was a poorly considered plan.
For years I've been praying that SOMEONE IN HIS CIRCLE could talk some basic common sense into him. Still waiting. At the end of the day though, I'll take Trump/Kennedy over Kackala ALL DAY LONG.
I'm afraid we're close to the "end of the day" and if he can't control himself, he's done, in my opinion.
With Trump, what we see is a CEO behind the scenes, but up front and center. He is not trying to sell "Joy" like the other side. Whatever that is. If we take a look at behavior can we consider what Hillary and the Dems did to Trump. Starting with the fabricated Russian Dossier, the Impeachment from a phone call to Ukraine (so much to hide). Then came the indictments, mainly for a book keeping error and questioning the 2020 election. The 51 Intel Operatives that claimed Hunter's Lap Top is fake news...stating: "Having the earmarks of Russian Disinformation." All lies. Who truly has the bad behavior. Criminal behavior, that is. I would like to polish the apple too, but I get it.
Making excuses for Trump won't solve the problem Michael nor will criticizing dems. If you want to evaluate him as a CEO - his history of bankruptcies - PLURAL, negates that positive opinion. In addition, he added more to the debt than any other president in history. What really is impossible for me to understand is that his tax cuts to his friends, the millionaires and billionaires of America cost us taxpayers enormous amounts of money. In exchange, the middle class got a few thousand. That's a horrible deal from any vantage point. As you're still talking about Hunters laptop, you clearly don't have a clue of what's important. Trump needs the independent voters, of which I am one. He will never get them, even with Kennedy on board, if he continues to behave like a child.
Hunter's Laptop IS important because it's proof of deep state lies and desperation. It's real, it's damning, and they lied about it. KAMALA IS PART OF THEM. Come January, we are going to have one or the other--and nothing terrifies me more than the thought of HER (because she is of course just a puppet/front for the global agenda).
No excuses, simply historical facts. Independent Voters or disgruntled Democratic Voters, not sure of the linage. Time will tell, but a vote for the VP that helped lead these last 3.5 years seems a bit ill researched.

Question: why don’t the citizens use guns to defend their lawns and pussies?
Thanks DAB! I think I'm older than Jeff and have probably been writing longer (while he was lawyering)... ;)
But Jenna, you look so young! 😳😂🤗
Possibly he’s starting to sound more like Jenna. 🤣 We are blessed to have both in our lives, aren’t we?
Yes! I was thinking how blessed we on Substack all are, for being able to put two and two together, you know, with respect to vaccines and adverse reactions when so many can’t see it. Blessed!
The mindset of the legal immigration of our great-great-grandparents was assimilation. There is NONE of this with the illegals. And they don't care. Coming across a border was their first illegal act, and with no law enforcement to deter further illegals acts it is just going to get worse. And the culture clashes will be horrendous and the collateral damage is going to be greater than we can imagine. We are being erased. Americans are being erased. America is being erased. I saw a Bald Eagle today sitting on a big lamp post. It was being harrassed by a crow or two, but it just sat there. The crows kept doing what crows do, and still it just sat calmly on the pole. I thought what an appropriate thing to see today. So, maybe it was God telling me that this eagle will rise up? Because those crows obviously are stupid crows because that eagle could have easily made mincemeat out of them, yet they kept it up.
Awesome message!!!
Immigration is not only a problem in the US. European people are having enough of all the problems that come with a mass influx of diverse cultures who will not/cannot integrate into the host culture.
I read today, somewhere that Sweden is offering immigrants a ton of money to go elsewhere. Problem is, they will then receive a large amount of money, perhaps only to re enter the same country.
I believe many countries are scratching their heads, the UK too, understanding that perhaps it wasn’t such a good idea after all. But how to save face in this respect without earning the ire of social activists?

Consider that PDJT leaves the topic open ended so that we citizens, and substack moderators, can do some of our own thinking ( and writing )........gotta have something to mull over with my AM java!
I have been a bit of a human slump! No probs, tho! Right fecking here jabbing like a girl should be. Hahahaha. We suck. Do you seriously think that The Cackling Moron can run anything? Serious fecking question.
Since DJT opened my eyes to the very real existence (ignore it at your peril) of the Deep State, Presidents have been more in the line of poseurs than runners, content to let all their appointees do the thinking and policy-making while they strut, puffy-chest.
Trump was surprised to find out how difficult changing the direction of the "ship of state" was, and although he was able to quickly fire department heads in his cabinet, his reach didn't go much deeper (where it is desperately needed). (Who cares if you say you're going to "play the major cities along the western seaboard" if the bus driver only ever takes you to Cleve-land?)
I am still in a human slump, but have somewhat recovered ! David Nelson! My new favorite man! Stand tall, young man Please know that this was the one reason for me to think that surviving was an option. Can you wake up tomorrow and check a vote for that moron. If, so, I won't be joining you in Hell
