I wanted to post something positive on Friday, hope you enjoy it!! Thanks Drs. Malone for letting me post!!
“Give someone a reason to look up to you”.
It feels as though we’re always being tested. Most every day we are faced with difficulties that sometimes seem to never go away. Difficult people at work, a difficult spouse, a problem child. We may not be able to control the difficulties, but what we can control is how we respond to them. Certainly not everything goes our way in life, I can attest to that. Instead of trying to change the circumstances, maybe we should change. They say God only gives you what you’re able to handle and this is another test that has been placed in front of us, a test that confronts us, theirs a choice to make.
Sometimes we get into arguments over and over again, sometimes about the same subject, and even if we know we’re right, we knowingly let the other person win, let them have the last word, or maybe we decide to change ourselves. This is a test of our faith that we have passed. Many say that you immediately are rewarded with growth and because of this you will be blessed with successes in other areas of your life.
You would think after 40 years of running a construction company I would have faced nearly every adversity there is with employees, customers, building officials, designs, classes, tests, making payroll every week, but obviously I have not, God is never done testing us. Just when you think you have reached the top of the hill you can clearly see there are more hills to climb.
Many times I feel that I give up my peace too easily. No one can take your peace, we have to give it away. Giving up your joy is a choice that you make, the decision is yours. There are subjects that will always create controversy, we have a choice, do we want to be right or do we want peace. I am constantly asking for help in trying to make the right decision. Hoping but not sure that in some way I’ll be able to accept all of the difficulties that are ahead. Here is to us finding that peace.
Thank you James, I have been self employed in the printing, mailing and promotional products business since 1980, and I have also faced all the challenges you listed above.
After having two brothers die at 39 and 43, I try to make the best of every day, and avoid being angry about all the dumb things that happen on this planet.
James, you seem to bee the first to comment so many times...how do you do that. It certainly sets a good example of hearing what is being said, afterwards. Not sure what that means, but think about it. You mentioned "always having to bee right". That is a
huge statement regarding narcissism, and how to identify one's self in that realm. Being narcissistic is not the end of the world, but it seems to have stalled progress, for sure, in so many directions that need to shift or change. I've noticed that if one calls another a narcissist, it is always denied, or at the very least...creates confusion...like no narcissist thinks he/she is one. I wanted to point that out cause it seems to slow down the progress of humanity in the "spirit" of things that need to shift...in the US. One thing for sure, the whole state of progress in the US is based on economics, I just realized. How is anything going to become more spiritual if that's the case. And I do believe it is, and perhaps always has been. We (all humans) are in a new dimensional phase of growth. If you don't understand that, consider making it a priority to learn what that means, and how it relates to the 50s. It's no secret that there has been a shift in consciousness, it's just that many don't yet understand who they are. One way to do that, stay in the present, speak in the I am, and consider reading this book I'm going to recommend to all. Its called Trilogy - The Best Kept Secret. You will learn when and where the first crash of a UFO happened. You will also learn why the military has kept ETs and UFOs secret since the 40s. Its Sunday, now that I've read the Malone's funnies, I'm going to take a break and rest.
I didn’t post 1st, more like 10th or 11th. My comment was saying be the bigger person. Let others have the last word and you may find peace in your life, I mostly meant with family. That doesn’t mean look the other way to bad things that happen, it just means pick your fights. Sometimes it takes seconds to escalate, say the wrong ting, and it creates weeks, months or years of pain. That’s all…
All Bob’s Money. Yep. That’s what too many folks are clamoring for. They have not yet realized it will be THEIR
money too that is distributed around! Where are the Americans willing to stand up against these Socialists/Communists!? When I try to discuss our trek towards this terrible outcome, it is usually met with scorn or apathy. The long term goal is about to be reached and I am so sorry for my country. Thank you Drs Malone for continuing your warnings. These Funnies today are truly more warnings.
I loved the one about freezing boiling water to save for another batch of pasta. There was a politician, I think Nadam Schiff, who had broken down into per capital amounts of what could be done with a trillion dollars. Someone had to purposely dedicate time to figure out how someone else's monies could be parted out. I wonder what influence he exercised over the proper use of government dollars ? This stuff really ain't complicated. He is such a slick con artist to float the notion of taking Elon Musk's value and redistributing it. Our two sons paid their student loans. People like Schiff are nauseating and I really can't fathom how they actually can express such garbage. Like the woman and the farmer discussing milk, some people are delusional.
tbh, I today’s FF had me laughing, sort’a, on the inside while the seriousness of the truth behind the panels had me kind’a sour faced on the outside.
THEN … I scrolled down to ORANGE MAN!
Thank you

Joyful Juneteenth, y’all. Remember, it was REPUBLICAN troops marching into that last confederate outpost in Texas to make real the news of freedom. After a hundred years of freedom, the ancestors of those freed people rehitched their fate to the party of their former enslavers; the party that instilled fear through lynching; the party that denied them suffrage, education, equality. As a result, the ancestors of the former enslaved, and even those that just look like them, gave up their family structures, traded husbands for a government check, abort half or almost half of their children, and too many of their young men languish in prisons for crimes against each other.
This Juneteenth, can we set aside a moment and mull over what those liberated men and women would think of this result; what the dead, maimed Union soldiers would think of their sacrifice.
You’re most welcome! You provided the opportunity for us to highlight PragerU and you featured Carol Swain, a brilliant woman who speaks commonsense every time she opens her mouth ;-)
Yes, Prof Swain has been a fav of mine since, 🧐 I think, hearing her on Rush (?) years ago. Looked her up and downloaded some of her writings back in the day. Thing is, she ain’t alone, there are scores of black voices who epitomize the American dream, the ideals, but they’re dismissed by louder voices with slurs like "Uncle Tom." The democrats, leftist, Main Street media doesn’t help since the greater part of its voice echos the leftist pitch. What’s worse is too many American blacks who live and prosper the American dream, live like conservatives, vote left of center
I would love to see this posted on progressive social media. Black Americans need to wake up to the truth about their past and the party that still is enslaving them.
Why would one go to a conference where 2 of the main speakers are Dennis Kucinich and Joe Kent? They are 2 fabulists who will support anyone who gives them most grift money. No thanks. You can keep your conference given the lack of any credibility from two of the main speakers.
I am no expert on either of these guys but am surely biased against them. However, it would be worth listening if for no other thing than to learn what their unique perspectives are on the world.
I may find out, for example, that Joe Kent did not leave for reasons I had previously assumed, but for. . . ?
Keeping an open mind is important to learning NEW things.
Once the county, state and feds drain me of all my possessions, I will have nothing, so I’ll be happy. That’s because I’ll have nothing more to give them. Oh happy day! (Sarc)
I just don't have the stomach for the truth memes today. I'll see if I can make it through them later. It's been cold, rainy gray and dreary. Kinda like the way I feel right now. Have a great day anyhow!
I moved from a county in PA that had moved from conservative to liberal in what seemed like a short time to a small town in South Carolina. I attend a large conservative church. The number of conservative teenagers is impressive! I see lots of hope in them! May your day look up...I would send you some of our sun and heat if I could.
DD, remember if things don't go as planned, or one is surprised by a delay in action, it usually means that synchronicity is at play. If you are new to what that means, give it a try. See what comes of it, and shift gears to accommodate what is....rather than what you expected.
I am very familiar with synchronicity, (just not how to spell it). It appears in my life all the time, and I pay attention. I am an optimist by nature and yet this agonizingly slow reveal is wearing on me. Thanks for the encouragement, tho.
I read that quote & my immediate thought was wonder what CS Lewis’ take be today if he were a Friday/Sunday Funnies subscriber. Something tells me he would have to reassess not his definition of “sane” - not insane, but sane.
The smart family sits in their comfy couch, fav drink in hand to watch the foolishness ‘cause they cut the cord and this is funnier than the Keystone Kops.
When I saw this Donald Duck cartoon in here, I couldn’t help thinking about the essay I wrote not long ago.
I truly believe that the wrist slapping going on from the authorities along with many parents is causing great damage to the country. My own son might be alive today if the rod had not been spared by the authorities here in South Carolina.
The essay is linked below, it contrasts my son’s treatment and unfortunate death with my treatment in the 1960s that led to my being clean, sober, and very successful for over 54 years now.
Remy creates another “Hit Piece”!!! Love it! What a shame our country has become, due to the past few regimes: Biden, Obama, Clinton, Bush! Each administration created chaos, has lied to the American People, & been involved (allegedly), in some form of child trafficking & abuse! Shameful! Now, President Trump has been cleaning up messes, at least from Biden, the past year, 6 months! I appreciate everything Trump has already accomplished, & now continues to do to have Peace in the Middle East. But, every time he begins another task, Chaos erupts from the Deep State- or the lunatics on the left. Gob Bless President Trump on his journey forward these next couple years!
Remy sure has talent, & “All My Loving” Beatles Parody, really hit’s the nail on the coffin (so to speak)! Thank you for the best lineup of Friday Funnies, I had a great laugh- a laugh that is truth-to-the-point! Awesome!
How do you fix a broken republic when those you have elected take their marching orders from the deep state actors and not those that elected them to office?
partial answer: change the next generation and those following by public education on the foundation of America, on the Revolutionary War and those who died, on the Civil War and those who died and in all these cases which factions supported the lower classess and slaves and which ones supported enslavement, limited speech & Liberty.
The point: public education has brainwashed generations of children and now they are the adults running the deep state and sporting blue hair. Public education is likely the way to turn the country around permanently by making it a force for republicanism, morality, and capitalism using critical thinking and intelligence.
One way to approach the lack of education due to the military having control, is to make the effort to speak in the "I am", stay in the present, and stop using those dam pronouns, we, our, us. Its a good way to become conscious.
The Al Gore meme, freeze boiling water to use it later to make pasta, is such a marker of Progressive unconnectedness with reality that it is as good as the earlier one of the Progressive on the end of a plank shooting the Conservative preventing his fall off the cliff. Very funny!!
Feral women. Don't have a practice of listening to speeches, but did occasion a JD response. A heartening experience.
Keep running in the "wrong" direction! Right. Next question - who and how to turn around the lemmings?
Orange Man Good. Back and at least partially focused on convincing a majority to love our Nation and focus on making it great again.
One notes the reported 'weight loss' (being accomplished through what ever means necessary) as evidence of a major focus and commitment. Now to hold the line and encourage more.
Off topic:
How to send Thune back home?

Hope you all will have a way to share with your supporters who can't attend! Expect we would surely second your "Most promising solutions!"

A particularly good presentation about this topic is one by Carol Swain titled, "The Inconvenient Truth About The Democratic Party". It is a short video from PragerU, from May 2017...https://www.prageru.com/videos/inconvenient-truth-about-the-democratic-party
PragerU videos are gold nuggets in just 5 minutes. Here’s a link to all of them. Enjoy!

I have thoughts about but the less spicy one is Stockholm Syndrome

I’ve heard plenty from Kucinich and Kent. I’ve had enough of their drivel. No thanks.
I hear you, but Dr. Malone is worth a listen. What if everyone simply walks out and takes a break when those 2 are speaking.
Such is life. Dr. Malone will be at other events and widely read through his Substack articles.

I love all the hypocrisy on the left about how great socialism is.
And yet, it has NEVER been successful anywhere in history.
Why can't all these faux leaders like Bernie, Mamdani, AOC, Fauxcahauntas just witness history and see that it is a lost cause.
I'm so glad I am a capitalist, Patriot and Non-globalist...I easily see the light...
Let’s shine that wonderful light on others. Every nook. Every cranny. Everybody!
