They're At It Again

April 21, 2025: "Today, four more Democrats — Rep. Robert Garcia of California, Rep. Maxwell Frost of Florida, Rep. Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, and Rep. Maxine Dexter of Oregon — are in El Salvador, picking up their party’s mantle of prioritizing a deported illegal immigrant MS-13 gang member over the Americans they represent." - The White House website

I cannot begin to imagine why anyone in their right mind would prioritize a deported gang member over American citizens. However, the answer may be in that very statement. I'll leave you to parse that out.

These four congress persons embarked on another trip in an apparent effort to try and drum up sympathy for this individual who is now ensconced in an El Salvadoran prison. Which, by the way, is his home country. To refresh your memory, this is the "Maryland dad" I talked about here.

Each of them is individually named in this report, with the question "Why hasn’t Rep. [name] spoken about these illegal immigrants putting his/her region at risk?" Then it goes on to list some of the illegal immigrants in their region and the crimes they either committed or are charged with, which includes murder.

These are representatives elected to serve the best interests of those who voted for them, i.e. their constituents. Do you think that is what they are doing? I certainly don't. I'd love to hear your reactions in the comments.

Until next time, stay safe and stay sane.

You can read the full story at the above White House link.

Update: They were "blocked by local authorities, who cited that the visit was not officially authorized.

Yea or Nay?

I have a question for you. How does it make sense that a senator (U.S. elected official) would align himself with a known gang member¹ who had been in this country illegally, and was legally deported? He actually flew to El Salvador to meet with this individual. One would assume he would go to the prison, be escorted to a meeting room and sit behind glass and have a brief conversation.

If accounts I have seen are accurate, it looked more like a restaurant setting where old friends were conversing over drinks and appetizers. The MS-13 member was dressed in a plaid shirt and a ball cap, simulating normalcy.

It should be mind boggling that Senator Van Hollen's allegiance is so far out of line with our American values, but actually it is what we have come to expect from the extreme left. If conservatives are in favor of something, the liberals are against it, so much so that they are not really for anything, but only against everything that is right, just and moral. They have become truly anti-American, slaves only to hate and greed, and violence is often their response.

Back to Senator Van Hollen, and his new best friend. He personally went to check on him to make sure he was healthy and not being mistreated, yet when the Laken Riley Act was up for vote, he voted...you guessed it, NAY.

As if that is not bad enough, he could not be bothered to reach out to a grieving Maryland mom (a constituent) whose daughter was brutally murdered by yet a different illegal immigrant. No phone call was made, no personal condolences were offered. This was a high-profile case, and yet nothing was heard from the same senator who personally went to check on a recently deported gang member.

If you're not familiar with the Laken Riley Act. you can read about it here, and here you will find a story on Rachel Morin, the young lady mentioned above.

Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments, and as always, stay safe and stay sane.

¹Some sources allege that he is affiliated with MS-13, but not initiated.

Looking Back to Look Ahead

“If you have to be persuaded, reminded, pressured, lied to, incentivized, coerced, bullied, socially shamed, guilt-tripped, threatened, punished and criminalized ... If all of this is considered necessary to gain your compliance -- you can be absolutely certain that what is being promoted is not in your best interest.” - Ian Watson

This is a very powerful quote when you think about all the things that were forced on not only those of us here in the U.S., but all around the world during the time of covid. This quote is in direct response to the covid "vaccine" and the pressure placed on people to get these untested injections. The emergency use authorization was based on a lie, because it could only be used if there weren't any treatment options available. That was a lie because the valid treatments that had been being used successfully were suppressed and vilified by the CDC and the FDA.

Since we know the answers to many questions about how covid (and the subsequent "vaccines") came to be, and those who are most likely responsible, we can see just how much the words in this quote are true. That one event changed the world and we are still trying to recover. In the event that this scam is ever tried again, keep these words in mind and understand that it is not in your best interest.

Until next time, stay safe and stay sane.

Words Matter

Dance like nobody is watching.

But write like everyone is reading.

Whether they are or not.

Because you never know who might read your words today and need to hear your message, be it inspired, serious or just plain funny.

Words do matter!

If you're one of those who writes, know that your words do matter, even if you're the only one who reads them.

If you read the words of others, know that they would be pleased and hope their words were of benefit to you.

I hope you'll visit me in the comments sometime.

A Tale of Two Sources

This is the tale of two news sources, one from the right and one from the left, covering the exact same story. 

As usual, the left is lying, manipulating, and playing on emotions in order to draw sympathy to the gang member they allege to be an innocent father.

The man in question was most certainly not a normal dad who tragically got arrested and accidentally deported. Nope, absolutely not. This man was a leader in the horrible MS-13 gang. You've heard of them, right? If you haven't, here's a blub from Wikipedia:

Mara Salvatrucha members are involved in the trafficking of narcotics, primarily cocaine and marijuana, into the United States, as well as the transportation and distribution of illicit drugs throughout the U.S.^[8] Conversely, the gang is engaged in the trafficking of stolen vehicles from the U.S. to Central America. MS-13 also utilizes intimidation and violence to extort payment from legal and illegal businesses operating in its territory.^[9] Members partake in additional criminal activities including alien smuggling, weapons trafficking, assault, homicide, rape, kidnapping, identification theft, home invasions, carjackings, prostitution, robbery, and vandalism.^[6][8]

Here is the real story from two different sources, PJMedia, and The Gateway Pundit.

SICK: Obama Judge Orders Return of Deported MS-13 Gang Member to U.S.

Karoline Leavitt SHUTS DOWN Fake News Reporter for Latest Hoax Claiming Trump Deported Innocent “Maryland Father”

What actually happened with the "accidental" deportation was that while he was eligible for deportation, he had been granted a "Withholding of Removal", and was not supposed to be returned to El Salvador. However,  he could be deported to any other country that would take him. He was not on the original list destined for El Salvador, but was an alternate. Due to various reasons, others were removed from the flight and he was moved up the list and assigned to the flight. His deportation was carried out in good faith based on a final order of removal and his purported membership in MS-13.

Now here is how CNN and The Atlantic spin it to fit their narrative.

An ‘Administrative Error’ Sends a Maryland Father to a Salvadoran Prison

After a Maryland father was mistakenly deported, his community prepares for the worst

If you think you are getting the truth from mainstream media whether it be newspapers, TV or online publications, you are sadly mistaken. You are constantly inhaling the stench of their lies.

Until next time, stay safe and stay sane. I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

Being Conservative in a Liberal Church

Wow, that is a big statement and controversial as well. Yes, it is and although our denomination has long been liberal, our church was not noticeably liberal for the first 10 years or so after we joined. We knew the pastor was a democrat, but he rarely let that show in his sermons, which were strictly from scriptures. I described his style as more teaching than preaching, which I enjoyed very much.

The story of how we came to this church is that friends invited us to visit. We went because of the invitation and stayed because of the pastor. Way too soon he decided it was time to retire. Now I can understand that because he is our age and we've been retired for a while.

Just before covid a change began to take place, not only because of the forced shutdown but because of changes in pastoral staff. Prior to this, our associate pastor had moved on to pastor his own church in another state. This lead to the hiring a temporary associate pastor, we'll call Joan, to serve until the permanent position was filled. This was the beginning of the change. She was liberal, but not so much outwardly woke. Still, you could tell Joan wasn't one of us. She stayed with us for nearly two years, almost twice as long as intended, probably because of covid. 

After her departure yet another woman was hired. We will call her Lisa. Now Lisa was way more liberal/woke, and it showed. She follows the new Progressive Christianity and is a strong supporter of LGBT...and more. She was hired as an associate pastor before our beloved pastor retired, after which she was asked and agreed to serve as interim pastor during the search for a full time pastor.

She brought nothing to the worship experience in my opinion. She quoted numerous progressive writers during each sermon and even said "... the Holy Spirit, SHE's a wild one" during a service on Trinity Sunday! There were other times she referred to God as "she" and "mother", which, quite frankly, did not set well with me. When she needed help with her pastoral duties, yet another woman was brought in, we'll call her Mary. Mary served as the parish associate and was equally woke, going so far as to talk about how great the pride parade was the previous weekend. This was going on in 2023-24. It got to the point that I didn't go to church much, and never when Mary was preaching.

Fast forward to August 2024, when we finally hired a new pastor. A man! Now he is still democrat/liberal, but probably less woke and progressive than the women were. He preaches from scripture which is a breath of fresh air after several years of endless progressive quotes. Recently we acquired a new parish associate, also a man, and former church member. Our denomination will always be liberal, but it is easier to deal with it when it is not in your face.

Now the big question I know is on your mind is why did we stay. A friend said "there are other churches" and that's true. We were almost to that point, but the search for a new pastor was underway, and we were praying God would lead someone to us who would preach and teach God's word from scripture. We got that so we stayed. I did have a short list of churches if we had decided to leave. 

On the up side, we have some friends there who are also conservative (and even some who are not...they're still nice people).

Based on what I have read and seen in my own church, it's my opinion that the reason for the downfall of churches is women. It seems to me that women are much more likely to be drawn into the "progressive" version of Christianity, which I view as false Christianity.

PJ Media recently did an article on progressive Christianity and women pastors.

On Being Optimistic

AI generated image from Pixabay

Optimist: someone who figures that taking a step backward after taking a step forward is not a disaster, it's a cha-cha. 

- Robert Brault

I was looking for something that sums up what a lot of people are feeling. While some are shrieking and clutching their pearls, I am calmly optimistic about the future. 

However, time will tell, and until then I remain hopeful and pleased at the well-thought out economic strategies currently in place that, if allowed to continue, should serve us well going forward.

I'm not going to spell this out now. This is just a lighter post to hopefully encourage those who are shrieking and freaking and rending their garments in distress.

Please calm down and breathe. If we come together and stick together, we'll be fine. Remember, it's just a cha cha, and things are already getting better.

In the meantime, take care and stay sane. It's still a crazy world out there.

Stronger Together

AI image of bison

Some of you may be familiar with Aesop's Fables. I enjoyed those as a child and find that as an adult they have even more meaning. As I walk through life, things I see, hear and read often remind me of one fable or another. While I was looking for examples for this post, I came across the fable about a bundle of sticks.

It seems there was a man, perhaps a farmer, who had several sons. It would seem that all would be right with his world. He had strong sons to help him, and to one day take over for him in his old age.

That was not necessarily true because his sons would continually fight among themselves, and one day he decided to turn things around. He brought forth a bundle of sticks and handed it to one of the boys and instructed him to break it. He could not. The bundle was passed to each son for him to try and break it. None could. The father then separated the bundle and handed each boy a stick. Now try to break it, he commanded them. Each boy was able to break the single stick.

The moral of this fable is that while each stick is easily broken, when they are bundled together they are much stronger.

This same principle applies to animals, as in the herd of bison above, as well as humans. If we stick together and work together it will be much easier to achieve our common goals. 

Folks, we are being divided today six ways from Sunday. What it boils down to is whether you are a conservative or a liberal. No matter what the subject, we are divided by the party line. I have touched on some of these individual topics previously so I won't rehash them here. 

The thing that concerns now is that the Republicans are not showing a united front. There are a number of congress and senate members that are coming out against the President's policies, to the extent that they are trying to pass legislation limiting the President's ability to use tariffs. It seems they are literally trying to throw up roadblocks. This is not the time for that. Like the fable tells us, we are stronger together. We can't blow our God-given opportunity by bickering among ourselves. As my mom would say "straighten up and fly right".

I hope this post finds you well and at peace. Please pray for our country, our President and all those working hard to heal our country and move us forward to economic stability once again.

Standing Up

AI generated image from Pixabay

It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.  — J.K. Rowling

Who are the enemies in this quote? What does it mean to stand up to them and what does that do for us or take away from us? It is a simple quote, but there are multiple points to consider. Also why does she say it takes the same amount of bravery to stand up to our friends? Do we have more to lose?

When we are standing up for the truth and for what is right, we can face ridicule, censorship, and even be fired from our jobs.

An example of this was during covid when people were being forced to take the not-a-vax jab or lose their jobs. Employers often fired those employees who refused and hired more compliant people. Those who didn't comply were called names, censored online, restricted, shunned and the pro-vaxxers even wanted to round them up and put them in camps. They wanted to do this to fellow human beings. 

It wasn't just employers vs. employees. It was schools vs. students, sometimes to the point of vaccinating students without parental permission. It was doctor vs. patient, and the unvaxxed were often denied critical treatment. It was also friends and family who badgered and distanced themselves from those who stood their ground. 

It was a horrible time in our country's history, and one I have no wish to repeat.Those of us who resisted the pressure are confident in our decision. 

No matter what you are standing up for or whom you are standing up to, it is never easy and sometimes you end up being a black sheep. So be it.

Until next time, stay safe and stay sane.

Propaganda

We have an information packed post for you today starting with Katherine Maher, CEO of NPR (National Public Radio). She made this statement,  "...the truth is a distraction from getting things done." Now, it is understood that this is a very liberal radio station, but she makes this statement as if getting to the truth of a matter is less important than getting things done.

Does that sound a bit like propaganda to you? Here is how Webster's defines it:

The spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person.

Ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause.

Where have we seen this happening over the previous four years? I'm of the opinion that you can't fix a problem unless you know what's wrong to begin with, i.e. the truth. And here we are today, trying to get to the truth in order to begin to fix our country's problems.

Rather than reinvent the wheel, so to speak, I'll leave you with some suggested reading to get you started. We read Coffee and Covid nearly every day at the Roses to Rainbows household. This is yesterday's article.

Until next time, take care and stay sane.

Required Voter ID

Take a good long look at this list. Do you see the United States on that list? No. The question we should all be asking is why not? Next, we should be demanding our elected officials to require, without exception, valid ID, and proof of citizenship if necessary.

I think politicians often forget that they work for the citizens, not the other way around. The previous resident of that great white house on Pennsylvania Ave. once told an auto worker "I'm not working for you". Sources say that statement was made, but is without context, however I think you get the message.

Election records indicate that most, if not all, areas in which Kamala won were those without Voter ID. That also should tell you a lot about the need to require ID at ALL the voting polls.

Mail-in ballots are another prime source of voter fraud, again going back to not requiring any form of ID. Yeah, how can you enforce that with mail-in ballots? So how many states allow mail-in ballots? Good question! *Let's look into that shall we.

Eight states and Washington, D.C., allow all elections to be conducted entirely by mail: California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Vermont and Washington state.

Two states permit counties to opt into conducting elections by mail: Nebraska and North Dakota.

Nine states allow specific small elections to be conducted by mail: Alaska, Arizona, Florida, Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, New Mexico and Wyoming.

Four states permit mostly mail elections for certain small jurisdictions: Idaho, Minnesota, New Jersey and New Mexico.

There you have it, 18% of the U.S. allow all elections to be conducted by mail, plus other states with the option to use mail-in if they choose.

Our goal is to achieve completely fair elections, free of fraud.

Until next time, take care and stay sane.

Best By Dates: How long do things last?

This topic is one that I have touched on before, and I would like to bring your attention to another product that has a much longer shelf life than printed on the label. As we all know, the "best by" date is just a guideline to freshness and taste quality on the majority of products. It has nothing to do with safety. There are a few exceptions and one is baby formula.

What we are focusing on here are canned goods, dry goods (pasta, rice, etc.) and packaged goods like mustard, ketchup, hot sauces and, of course, mayonnaise.

For my example, I would like to present a jar of mayo that I purchased in November 2022.

As you can see, I write the purchase date on the label with a black marker. In this case, I noted the price, too. Now for the best by date. In case you can't read it, the date is 5/19/23.

And finally, this is the date I opened it.

And how is it? Just fine! I had recently finished up a jar with the same dates, and it was good to the bottom of the jar. The jar lasted approximately 7 weeks in the fridge.

And there you have it folks. By the time this jar is used up, it will likely be into May, proving that mayo can last (stored properly) for at least 2 years past the best by date. I've linked to a previous post on the subject.

How To Save Money On Your Food

JFK Files, Covid Scam and More

Hello Friends,

There is a lot going on around the country this week, and rather than try to summarize everything and create a TLDR post, I'll leave you with a few links and a blurb on each to get you started.

We'll start off with today's article from Coffee and Covid. This is information packed so buckle up.

☕️ REGIME CHANGES ☙ Friday, March 21, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠

"JFK files explode, Trump drops 3 blockbusters: DOE shutdown, swamp procurement chokehold, and mining revival—media stunned, Reagan’s ghost grinning, history rewriting itself; more."
– Jeff Childers

This is the link to the JFK documents archive so you can see them for yourself.

Next we have a special study about the pandemic, censorship and the complete lack of concern for human life.

A Narrative Review of the COVID-19 Infodemic and Censorship in Healthcare 

Secrecy and Society Volume 3 Number 2 Special Issue: Pandemic Secrecy

"The amount of information and scientific data that was censored and kept secret throughout the pandemic is incalculable. However, the evidence presented in this narrative review suggests that lack of access to critical information resulted in the unnecessary and dramatic loss of countless human lives, and possible deaths to follow. Censoring information about the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the science behind government recommended responses to the pandemic, the safety and efficacy of COVID19 vaccines, and available treatments for COVID-19 contributed to a loss of trust in healthcare providers and healthcare institutions." Excerpt from page 54.

And now President Trump has signed and Executive Order to dismantle the Department of Education. 

Returning education back to the states.

"We're going to be returning education very simply BACK TO THE STATES where it belongs, and we want to have our children well educated and we want them to love going to school."

– President Donald J. Trump

Hope you enjoy the articles. There are a lot of changes taking place, I believe, for the good of the country and the American people. There are also a lot of haters out there, and I pray for them and hope that one day they will wake up and say "wow, they were right all along. Until next time, take care and stay sane.

Tolerance: When The Line Is Drawn Part 2

In this post, we will look at the LGBTQ and gender ideology.

First the children. Should we be tolerant of people whose perverted lifestyles are harmful to children? Take for example this questionnaire from a hospital in New Jersey.

These are new-born babies they are talking about. You know the gender of babies by looking at them. They are either boys or girls. To think you can choose a gender identity for them is ridiculous, and equally ridiculous is asking your kindergartener to choose. This is another line that has to be drawn. Just let the kids be kids.

Are you with me in asking "how did we get here"? I think it takes decades of indoctrination to reach this level of insanity. Some call this the woke mind virus, or mental illness.

The President has stated that there will only be two genders officially recognized in the U.S., male and female. The fact that it needed to be officially stated by the President should tell you something.

Let me know in the comments what you think.

Take care and stay sane.

Tolerance: When The Line Is Drawn

The inspiration for this post was Sunday's sermon. Our pastor preached on tolerance, and suggested that something had changed that would affect the church's ability to carry out its missions.

So, what does it really mean to be tolerant by definition? Webster's defines tolerance as: a liberal spirit toward opinions and practices that differ from one's own. I would rephrase that as a "generous" spirit.

We are told to be tolerant of things like religion, politics, appearance and the LGBTQ, (or basically anything) when they differ from our beliefs or practices. We should peacefully get along with everyone as long as they are doing the same.

The question is when and where do we draw the line? Should we always be tolerant, accepting and forgiving when doing so is detrimental to our lives, liberties, health, safety, national security or child welfare?

Here is an example of when those we are told to tolerate cross the line.

Our Southern border. Should we tolerate the millions that have entered our country illegally? Many are violent criminals, gang members, drug dealers and human traffickers. Other countries opened their prisons and their inmates flooded into our country. U.S. citizens have been murdered. Tell me why we should tolerate this? Thank God, the border has been secured and illegals are being deported.

I spoke with a gentleman after the service whose parents legally immigrated to the U.S. and worked hard to make a living. They successfully raised their children, who produced children and grandchildren. They all turned out well. He shared that while he believes in tolerance, there are some things should not/cannot be tolerated.

Here is my question to you--where do you draw the line?

Have a great day! Take care and stay sane.

Some Thoughts on the Blog

This has been my personal blog since 2009 and while it has never been a political blog, I have hinted a few times of my displeasure at the crazy-town way things were going. But by and large, this has been a blog of pictures, fiction, poetry and cataloging vacations. I participated in various creative writing challenges and wrote about my cats. Oh, and food...we can't forget food!

For this hopefully short season, this is my platform for expressing myself and letting out all the pent-up frustrations from the past 4-5 years and my surging hope for our country [breathes a huge sigh of relief].

What has changed? Nothing and everything. I will still write poetry and fiction if and when my muse is in the mood.

We lost our precious Sophie last May, and she was my go-to for smiles, ours and hopefully yours too. She sure did love boxes. She was frequently there waiting patiently for me to get my stuff out of her box.

So it hasn't become a political blog...I'll leave the nitty gritty to others, but I do have more topics to discuss in upcoming posts. So stay tuned because you never know what you will find here. Feel free to dig into the archives too!

Take care and stay sane out there.

To Tell the Truth

This is something the Left seems unable or unwilling to do. 😠




Remember the scene in the movie "A Few Good Men" where Lt. Kaffee (Tom Cruise) was questioning Col. Jessup (Jack Nicholson) and Jessup finally roared back, "You can't handle the truth"!

Well, that scene is playing out all across the country since many people still can't handle the truth. I read post after post that have been shared by people I used to think I knew. There seems to be no end to the vitriol being spewed through their fingers onto the keyboard.

I wish I had the time and the patience to systematically correct them, you know, like grading a failing paper with a bright red pen. And yes, they are failing. Failing to see how out of touch with reality they are and actually believe what they are saying.

If we are being honest here, for many, particularly those in the swamp, it is more than that, deeper than that. It is a four-letter word. It is hate. They are so filled with hate that they can't find the good in anything that doesn't fit their myopic version of the truth. So they lie.

Which, of course, brings us to the topic of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech means you have a right to your opinion and to give voice to that opinion. You also have the right to be wrong and revel in your wrongness.

That doesn't make the rest of us any more likely to switch sides. It merely gives you the satisfaction of self expression.

Until next time, continue to express yourself. Folks will agree or not. It's your right and theirs.

If you enjoy this type of content, please give me a shout in the comments. Thanks!

Whose Side Are You On?

I'm glad you asked. I am on the side of America.

If you take a deeper look at it, there are many issues facing our country and many sides to take. 

One that is at the forefront of the world's attention is the war between Russia and Ukraine, and people are taking sides. Either you are for or against one of these countries, and nothing else is even possible. Ah, but it is. Personally, I support neither country and think the U.S. should keep its nose out of it. We, the American people do not want war. This is the third side and it is called neutrality. Ever heard of that? 

Those who insist that we continue to support Ukraine with billions of dollars of money and/or equipment, are just condoning more killing on both sides until there is no longer enough men to fight, or more importantly, work and raise families. I don't understand why anyone would want this. No, really I do and it all goes back to follow the money, and whose pockets get lined.

So, I am tired of seeing the blue and yellow flags with the words "I stand with Ukraine" everywhere I look. To say anything else seems to suggest that one aligns with Russia. I don't. However, when trying to negotiate a peace agreement, one must have both parties at the table. The Ukrainian president did not make a good showing, arriving at the White House (by invitation) wearing attire unbecoming of a president. He then reneged on already agreed-upon terms, refused to sign and demanded more money/support...whatever.

It is very telling that the only time the democratic members of congress clapped during President Trump's address was when he talked about the war and how many billions in aid had been given by the previous administration) One member, also known as “Pocahontas”, clapped even harder when he called her out. What does that say about the democratic state of mind?

Whose side are you on and why?

Until next time, take care and stay safe.

Just So You Know

The far left media will lie and tell you that Americans are against all the things that President Trump is doing. That would be the left doing what they do best.

Now, how about a look at some numbers gathered from a CBS News poll following President Trump’s speech Tuesday night. This tells a completely different story.

• 76% approved of Trump’s speech
• 63% said Trump spent time on issues they care about
• 74% said his speech was presidential
• 71% said it was inspiring
• 62% said it was unifying
• 77% approve of DOGE
• 77% approve of immigration and border policies
• 73% approve of his plans for ending the Ukraine/Russia war
• 65% approve of tariffs
• 76% approved of the removal of democrat, Al Green

Only 51% of those polled self-identified as republicans, yet 76% approved.

I believe this covers it pretty well. Over 77.3 million American citizens voted for Donald Trump, and I think we are all getting what we voted for. Thank God and thank you Mr. President.
