Did you hear about the recent Ukraine corruption. Zelenskyy’s top advisors are driving 500-600 thousand dollar super cars. Two of his top people have fled the Ukraine.
It costs money to destroy a country. America has given Zelenskyy close to 350 billion dollars in cash and weapons which has destroyed the country of Ukraine. 99% or more of the American people that are paying the bill couldn’t care less about the Donbas Luhansk or Kherson. Ukraine has no meaningful benefit to America except for our political elites who launder their money there, take their skim by insider trading and receive their political contributions from weapons companies and lobbyists. Ukraine and its people are basically used to enrich our politicians and their families.
At least for the time we have created a dictatorship and a dictator that shuts down elections, prosecutes opposition media, shuts down and prosecutes churches and religion, drives people from their homes, and personally has enriched himself and all of his friends around him. At the same time he sends the peasants off to the meat grinder, some are now rounded up at gunpoint to go off to fight the elites war. Isn’t this though just what dictators do?
We have bought him an island with a casino and a hotel. We’ve bought him several mansions one for his mother. We’ve even bought him a mansion in Florida, maybe a place he can exile too? We have enriched all of his friends to unimaginable levels. All of these wonderful things the American taxpayers have got for 350 billion dollars, what a bargain!
We know the politicians have got their cut, that’s probably why the war isn’t going to end.
This whole war has been caused by the CIA and additionally Joe Biden’s (and our Governments) insane push to make Ukraine a member of NATO. It’s really a CIA play land which now they push on us here in America. J.Goodrich
The truly sad thing about Ukraine is that its people are really just like all people wherever you find them. They are average Joes, trying to make sense of things, and hindered by their lack of knowledge about those who govern them.
Our founders had the right idea about creating a government of, by, and for the people. That would have ended a great deal of injury and hardships. However, unscrupulous leaders have found their way to the top and serenity and peace were cast aside.
As you implied James, It wasn’t the will of our people to squander those three hundred plus billions of dollars, in a land most of them have no idea where it’s located. It was evil and unrighteous government that abounds, and usurps the will of the people.
I just saw a chart the other day the Ukraine has lost an entire generation of males and females from their teens through their 30s…. Not many left to have babies 😔
Former Polish Official Claims Ukraine Has Stolen Half of US Aid Money, Alleges They Laundered Funds Back to Democrats...
Former Polish Deputy Minister Piotr Kulpa alleged that up to half of the U.S. aid money given to Ukraine was stolen by Ukrainian officials. He made the accusations on Thursday while speaking with Ukrainian journalist Lana Shevchuk, according to RT. Kulpa even claimed that Ukraine has been swindling some of that money back to the U.S. Democrat Party.
“Everyone understands that war-related corruption is linked not only with Ukraine, but also the supplier nation,” he said, according to RT. “Who would ever believe that the US burned through $2 trillion in Afghanistan? It’s delusional!”
The U.S. Democrat Party allegedly got back a lot of the embezzled money, Kulpa claimed, according to RT.
“US aid programs are a mechanism to ‘write off large sums of money that finance shady systems under the Democratic Party’s control,’ he alleged. The incoming Trump administration could review government finances and discover the truth that ‘Ukraine got very little’ compared to the amounts mentioned in public statements, Kulpa claimed,” RT said Friday.
Kulpa went on to say that regardless of the intentions of the aid money, large percentages were pocketed by the Ukrainians.
“But they will also find something else: that a huge portion of the funds was stolen in Ukraine. From 30% to 50%, regardless of the nature of the aid,” he said, according to RT.
According to the Council on Foreign Relations citing the Congressional Budget Office in September, $175 billion has been given to Ukraine since February 2022, although only $106 billion of that went directly to the Ukrainian government.

According to Transparency International in December 2014, Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe.
“The new Corruption Perception Index (CPI) 2014 by Transparency International showed that Ukraine did not overcome the threshold of “corruption disgrace”. Having received only one additional point, in comparison with 2013, Ukraine remains in the club of the most corrupt countries,” Transparency International said in December 2014. “This year Ukraine scored 26 of 100 and took 142nd place of 175 in the CPI by Transparency International. Again Ukraine shares scores with Uganda and the Comoros as one of the most corrupt countries in the world.”
Ukrainian First Lady Olena Zelenska allegedly ordered a $4.83 million Bugatti Tourbillon in July. Production and delivery of the hyper-car do not begin until 2026, according to Bugatti.
Thank you John Guy, for that additional information on government officials of Ukraine. I’m forever amazed at the insights of our first president, way back when. In his farewell address, he cautioned us to beware of foreign government entanglements. I believe we all too often today, confuse neutrality with isolationism.
Thank you for sharing this- It’s so overwhelming. I do believe that some of the aid money “slipped-through-the-cracks”, & ends up back into the “hands" that feeds this corruption! Horrible!! Definitely criminal activity happening all around!
Extremely sad & horrible for the Ukraine people; they have no where to go & are left alone to fend for themselves. Shameful the elites just take-take-take, & live a life of luxury elsewhere! Our own government needs to stop funding this never-ending war!!
I hope Pres. Trump cuts them off asap. Ends this fiasco farce and other f words. He has so much to do it is unbelievable that it all can be done in 4 years, and again so many working against him. I continue to put my trust in God, and will give Trump the 4 years I voted for, I do have hope for next year, more than I have felt in a long time.
Well, here’s a thought. The Ukrainian people don’t deserve to be thrown out with their corrupt leadership. So, let’s kick out the corrupt leaders (prosecute, jail, clawback the funds, etc.) while still supporting the Ukrainian people in their fight against Russian aggression and the attempt by Russia to conquer the Ukrainian homeland.
I suggest a peace deal that recognizes Russia’s legitimate red lines. As Trump repeatedly says, “This never would have happened if… and the Russians agree with him. “ NATO inspired and USA funded. Let that stop right now!
Cannot think of too many successful CIA missions but plenty of humongous flops. Hardly a surprise given who sired them. They are probably best known for all their drug trafficking. Vietnam and latin america most notable. Our navy may be taking out some of,their people on the hi seas today
Peerless Blobologist Mike Benz reviewing a Tulsi info Drop walks through how Obama’s father was CIA/Harvard and his mother was USAid. They met at the CIA/USAid school in Hawai’i. Ewwwwww.
Mondami’s father is CIA/Colombia.
And guess who did Community Organizing in Niger before working on Ted Kennedy’s staff?
I agree Putin made it totally clear that he did not want a NATO member country on the Russian Border. He said that what they would do if Ukraine joined NATO was build military bases on the border, that's what "they" do. He was not going to let that happen. He warned Ukraine that if it insisted on joining NATO he would attack. Zelensky went ahead anyway, with the support of Biden, and Putin did what he said he would do. Zelensky and Biden started that insane war, not Russia.
Ukraine’s Zelensky CAUGHT buying $75 million luxury yacht with U.S. money?
Ukraine’s President Zelensky has been making some big personal purchases in the form of luxury yachts ahead of his ouster into exile. Investigators discovered Zelensky’s proxies have bought two luxury yachts totaling $75 million. Where did they get that money? The purchases were made through the same close associates Zelensky has used before to make proxy purchases of real estate and other luxury goods.
James!!! WOW, Who knew of the outrages happening in Ukraine - about the disgusting misuse of US taxpayers by Zelensky & his cohorts ? From where did you get all the facts and figures?
So I can see the dripping sarcasm! But anyways in Kyiv all of Zelenskyy’s buddies are seen driving these 4-5-6 hundred thousand dollar super cars. Now his 2 top people have fled.
They/Our Unrepresentatives are so afraid of the IC/Spooks due to their own corruption/guilt it has in effect left the IC to operate in secret committing crimes/treason, including assassinating our Presidents and many other countries. They control the media, military, bureaucracy, corps, Hollywood, and have perfected the mass manipulation of the credulous to accept the most absurd lies imaginable. Men in skirts, asking 5 year olds if they want to change gender, killing Ukrainians is ok cause they hate Russians, CO2 is our biggest problem. Nothing They tell us appears to be true.
I realize the CIA is a rogue government agency that has caused damage and mismanaged operations worldwide. I realize this will probably take decades (if ever) to completely clean up. Now my question is, “What is John Ratcliffe doing now to root out some of the corrupted?” I never hear anything on this front. I realize this will be touchy and whoever initiates this and their family cannot ever be completely safe again but….something has to happen or the snowball will just keep rolling and getting bigger.
I loved the Franklin memes. I used to read those books to my kids. I also thought the last post was spot on! Thanks Dr. Malone (and Jill) for all you do to assist us (the people) with knowledge. God Bless and Merry Christmas.
I could not be any more pleased with the interminable war on drugs finally becoming real. If ever there was a way to destroy a country without firing a shot, it is illicit, addictive drugs. The damage cost multiplier becomes astronomical when we pay for the following; the drugs, the crimes and victims to buy the drugs, the law enforcement costs, the judicial system costs, incarceration costs, intervention / harm reduction costs, family damage costs and social fabric costs. If ever collateral damage might be acceptable, it would be in the real war on drugs.
I completely agree but the war will never end until the consumers here CHOOSE NOT TO USE. I live around people who cannot be persuaded to take Tylenol much less a hard drug. What’s the source of that will power? Just guessing now: intact primary family, huge extended family, community life that requires participation, centered around church. My neighbors happen to be Amish but I suspect this recipe would work anywhere for any persuasion. Just saying - stop the seller is a good first step. Harden the consumer is the real key to success.
Thank you; we need both ? Likely none of the addicted were forced to take or inject addictive drugs. There must be some level of personal responsibility. If not, then we / society become enabling financiers of illegal drug use.
Exactly. Strong backbones require strong families and teachings that “harden” individuals to do what they know is moral and in their own best interest. I’m not an addict so I don’t know where their weak points are but when I compare my Amish neighbor kids who would rather die than steal or indulge in guilty pleasures, what I see is a society addicted to convenience and pleasure without regard for others (much). Training children to be responsible MEANS giving them responsibilities for which they are accountable. I wrote about a day now 30 years ago when I was staying at an Amish ministers house with his 11 children! In the middle of the night there was an almighty chicken up roar. Next morning the report said two chickens were dead and the little boys responsible for putting them up at night had forgotten and something got them. I asked about the punishment and was told they would sleep on the roof the chicken house fully armed with BB guns and catch whatever so it didn’t happen again. Accountability!! Made them strong men with wonderful children of their own!
Something I find sorta funny. The media treatment of mark kelley is intriguing. Back when an ultra right winger (who actually was so far left he fell of the table) wounded his pathetic house Rep. wife it was astronaut this and astronaut that but after committing a blatant act of sedition he suddenly is merely a retired naval capt. In their eagerness to not besmirch their beloved astronauts have they forgotten the astronaughties of an earlier time?
When his wife Giffords was shot conservative federal judge John Roll was killed. The conspiracy theorist in me always wondered a bit if it was basically a hit on the judge, with the other shot as cover.
The Narco-Venezuelan crisis is distracting. The real story that should make headlines is that President Trump and RFK Jr and the NIH leadership team really know what has to be fixed in the medical world. The Whitehouse chart in the following substack article is worth a thousand words!
Amazingly, Congress was never able to shake DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas from his assertion that DHS was doing a great job wrt illegal immigration. Mayorkas, who at least for a time was a board member of HIAS (Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society), sat at Biden's left shoulder in 2015 as Biden said this:
“There’s a second thing in that black box: An unrelenting stream of immigration. Non-stop. Non-stop. Folks like me who are Caucasian of European descent for the first time in 2017 will be in an absolute minority in the United States of America….absolute minority. Fewer than 50 percent of the people in America, from then and on, will be white European stock. That’s not a bad thing. That’s a source of our strength.”
Odd that even immigration hawks seem reluctant or embarrassed to call out these explicitly racist remarks. Mayorkas (obviously) was not controlling illegal immigration; he was aiding and abetting it, with journalist Michael Yon claiming that he sighted Mayorkas at migrant transit camps built with US/UN aid in Panama's Darien Gap. To the best of my knowledge, this sighting never even came up during Mayorkas' impeachment hearing. Treason, committed with impunity.
Biden told us what they'd do in 2015, and they did it. In his own words:
Mayorkas is almost salivating as Biden speaks in the video. I wonder what makes him that way. All the Democrat/left brainwashing of the American (USA) middle class to accept that abortion is a good and noble thing, or having no more than two kids is wise. I heard Schumer say a few years ago (these are not his actual word but the gist of it)... that illegal immigration was good because our population of new babies is declining, so we need the immigrant men to father a lot of babies. And many white women/white guilt-ers seem to hate themselves for being white these day. Very sad situation. I heard some good news from my church that I go to sometimes, that the congregation has been growing in leaps and bounds the last few months. Last time I went to Mass, I noticed there were a lot of young families and young people in general.
I am down to virtually zero doubt that the undermining of patriotism, sovereignty, and our constitutional republic are essential steps on the path to global governance. Virtually zero doubt that Mayorkas played his role as instructed in the implementation of this agenda. Thus, he salivated.
This just brings me back to the same question I keep asking: If these people were actually trying to destroy this country, exactly what would they be doing differently???
Even an old Bernie supporter like Joe Rogan has the alertness (and the intellectual integrity) to spot what’s going on. Here’s a clip of him making remarks very similar to yours wrt to the UK.
Council on Foreign Relations members (President) Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas COULD HAVE BEEN IMPEACHED by the Congress - IF ONLY the House & Senate members had READ and KNEW of ARTICLE IV., Section. 4. of the U.S. CONSTITUTION (QUOTE) "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall PROTECT EACH OF THEN FROM INVASION" (my emphasis). Nuff said.
The best parenting advice ever given is wrapped up and tied with a neat bow in that last meme.
You "deserve" exactly that which you have earned.
Which brings me to another lesson for the children: "They’re kind of upset with me, not really upset but they don’t understand. I tell them all the time, ‘We ain’t rich. I’m rich.” - Shaquille O'Neal
OK Now my weekend can officially start! Too many great Friday Funnies today to pick just one Where DO you and Jill find these gems! Ive never heard of the Franklin books and was delighted to see this. Read on AMD post this morning that Dr. Millhoan was rehired! Amazing! That would not have happened a few years ago. Progress is being made after all. Keep it up, Dr. Malone. You are our hero! Happy weekend, everyone!
Thanks Dr. M and Jill for so many good memes! Loved the Patrick Henry meme, regarding. The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people. It is an instrument for the people to restrain the government; forwarded it and the rest immediately. Many resonated with me...the one about older rabbit's knees predicting the weather. When I was about ten, I fell while rollerskating and really hurt one of my knees. It was cut open and I saw white cartilage , before the bleeding started. I crawled to the curb and prayed for the bleeding to stop. It finally did and I hobbled home; and taped it together with some adhesive tape; and never said a word about it to my parents. For years, I knew, when it was going to rain...just like the meme.
Boy! An incredible lot today and great news to boot! Incredibly appreciated!
The young chap with the shovel is a winner! The mosquito thing is interesting. My weather service is continuing daily mosquito reports.
Actually, I didn't/would not be electing activist judges.
Franklin is charming. Much success for Franklin.
Dr Milhoan:
Wonderful! Christmas and American values upheld!
The folks of the US, Texas, this Dr's practice and facility stand proud! His credentials and career demonstrate he will unquestionably serve in the best interests of all children and citizenry! That he is well qualified to do so.
It is ever heartening to find justice has prevailed!
On to the weekend and any weather challenges it brings!
Had to look up Franklin. Canadian 🙄, prolly only on PBS Kids 🙄, younger than my son, didn’t have a telly during those early years 😁; tho, somehow, don’t think the Franklin depicted in these panels is what we would’a seen had we had a telly and I allowed PBS in da house AND I permitted Canadian children’s programming ( Caillou! - nuff said) wink.
My favorite chuckle fest today was the video of "We Lie to YOU".
The father/son duo with the caption ending "until you realize...". My folks had very little to begin with. We girls (mom, sis and I) walked everywhere cause there was only 1 car up until I was starting middle school. I was given a used car in my 3 yr of college. I gave it back as I had grown to enjoy walking and mass transit and did not feel the need or wish to own one. My 1st car ownership came with my 1st child in 1987. I was 36. In contrast, my recently moved away neighbors across the street, with 4 daughters Each had a car. That's mom, dad, 4 girls. Needless to say, around and in front of my home was a continuous parking lot. I suppose that's a judgment on my part, which I try to avoid. On the other hand, it shows just how out of control we are. I mean, really, those 4 girls could not share a car or two? I just got my driver's license renewed for another 10 years. I'll be 85 next time. I guess I'll fit in with the Waymo crowd ok. Plus, the powers that be will probably mandate that I must use one, if I'm still on this planet.
When my kids were little and said they were bored I would tell them I had plenty of things that they could do . Scrub grout, wash baseboards, clean the car etc.
I’m a survivor as well. I always drank from the hose when playing outdoors. Never wore a helmet while riding my bike. I had a few bad crashes. Car didn’t have seatbelts . Laid across the back window and always rode in the back of dad’s pick up truck. I am a live and well. The only broken bone I had was from stubbing my baby toe. Have a great day!
Love it Melanie Reynolds. We had fun growing up poor. Everyone was poor after the war! Snow ice cream. Yummy!!! Keep the snow up north now. We are going to have some cold wind chills tomorrow night they say. So far they have missed our weather here in Alabama. What a nice day today. Love the sunshine and 60s and all my leaves are gone in the back thanks to my yard man!!

The shadowy composition of the Ukrainian government... you can't make this up!
While Russian-Ukrainian war is ongoing, let's take a look at the composition of the Ukrainian government:
Pandora Papers Reveal Offshore Holdings of Ukrainian President and his Inner Circle..............
President Zelensky of Ukraine in hot water over $35 million Florida mansion and unexplained $1.2 billion in cash in offshore Costa Rican bank account

https://globalhappenings.com/opinion/15391.html
A number of the members of the Presidential Administration Zelenskyy appointed were former colleagues from his former production company, Kvartal 95.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kvartal_95_Studio
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volodymyr_Zelenskyy
The core decision-making inner circle of Ukrainian President Zelensky is actually based on his circle of friends when he was an actor.
1. The Chief of Staff of the Presidential Palace, Andre Yemark, is a comedy producer;
2. The head of the Presidential Administration, Andre Bodin, is a lawyer in the entertainment industry;
3. The president's chief policy adviser, Sergey Sheffey, is a comedy writer;
4. Ivan Bakanov, deputy chairman of the Ukrainian Supreme Intelligence Service, is the boss of a comedy film company;
5. Senior adviser to the Ukrainian National Defense Committee, Sergei Sivoko, is also a comedian and is Zelensky's partner in acting.
If you just look at their resume, you can't tell whether it is a film and television company or a country's decision-making body.
James!!! WOW, Who knew of the outrages happening in Ukraine - about the disgusting misuse of US taxpayers by Zelensky & his cohorts ? From where did you get all the facts and figures?

I could not be any more pleased with the interminable war on drugs finally becoming real. If ever there was a way to destroy a country without firing a shot, it is illicit, addictive drugs. The damage cost multiplier becomes astronomical when we pay for the following; the drugs, the crimes and victims to buy the drugs, the law enforcement costs, the judicial system costs, incarceration costs, intervention / harm reduction costs, family damage costs and social fabric costs. If ever collateral damage might be acceptable, it would be in the real war on drugs.
More Americans are killed every year by those drugs than were killed in the entire Vietnam War.
I completely agree but the war will never end until the consumers here CHOOSE NOT TO USE. I live around people who cannot be persuaded to take Tylenol much less a hard drug. What’s the source of that will power? Just guessing now: intact primary family, huge extended family, community life that requires participation, centered around church. My neighbors happen to be Amish but I suspect this recipe would work anywhere for any persuasion. Just saying - stop the seller is a good first step. Harden the consumer is the real key to success.
Thank you; we need both ? Likely none of the addicted were forced to take or inject addictive drugs. There must be some level of personal responsibility. If not, then we / society become enabling financiers of illegal drug use.
Exactly. Strong backbones require strong families and teachings that “harden” individuals to do what they know is moral and in their own best interest. I’m not an addict so I don’t know where their weak points are but when I compare my Amish neighbor kids who would rather die than steal or indulge in guilty pleasures, what I see is a society addicted to convenience and pleasure without regard for others (much). Training children to be responsible MEANS giving them responsibilities for which they are accountable. I wrote about a day now 30 years ago when I was staying at an Amish ministers house with his 11 children! In the middle of the night there was an almighty chicken up roar. Next morning the report said two chickens were dead and the little boys responsible for putting them up at night had forgotten and something got them. I asked about the punishment and was told they would sleep on the roof the chicken house fully armed with BB guns and catch whatever so it didn’t happen again. Accountability!! Made them strong men with wonderful children of their own!
SPOT-ON, Garry!
Thanks. I would go a step farther and say take how ever many "taps" are needed to insure each threat no longer exists.
Y’all sent a good crop of Friday Funnies this week! Thanks, I needed the laughs!
Something I find sorta funny. The media treatment of mark kelley is intriguing. Back when an ultra right winger (who actually was so far left he fell of the table) wounded his pathetic house Rep. wife it was astronaut this and astronaut that but after committing a blatant act of sedition he suddenly is merely a retired naval capt. In their eagerness to not besmirch their beloved astronauts have they forgotten the astronaughties of an earlier time?
When his wife Giffords was shot conservative federal judge John Roll was killed. The conspiracy theorist in me always wondered a bit if it was basically a hit on the judge, with the other shot as cover.
Good point, and likely
OOOOH! Astronaughties! Love that word!
Springeresque Astronaut Love Triangle, perhaps?!
The Narco-Venezuelan crisis is distracting. The real story that should make headlines is that President Trump and RFK Jr and the NIH leadership team really know what has to be fixed in the medical world. The Whitehouse chart in the following substack article is worth a thousand words!

Mass invasion...
Amazingly, Congress was never able to shake DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas from his assertion that DHS was doing a great job wrt illegal immigration. Mayorkas, who at least for a time was a board member of HIAS (Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society), sat at Biden's left shoulder in 2015 as Biden said this:
“There’s a second thing in that black box: An unrelenting stream of immigration. Non-stop. Non-stop. Folks like me who are Caucasian of European descent for the first time in 2017 will be in an absolute minority in the United States of America….absolute minority. Fewer than 50 percent of the people in America, from then and on, will be white European stock. That’s not a bad thing. That’s a source of our strength.”
Odd that even immigration hawks seem reluctant or embarrassed to call out these explicitly racist remarks. Mayorkas (obviously) was not controlling illegal immigration; he was aiding and abetting it, with journalist Michael Yon claiming that he sighted Mayorkas at migrant transit camps built with US/UN aid in Panama's Darien Gap. To the best of my knowledge, this sighting never even came up during Mayorkas' impeachment hearing. Treason, committed with impunity.
Biden told us what they'd do in 2015, and they did it. In his own words:

Mayorkas is almost salivating as Biden speaks in the video. I wonder what makes him that way. All the Democrat/left brainwashing of the American (USA) middle class to accept that abortion is a good and noble thing, or having no more than two kids is wise. I heard Schumer say a few years ago (these are not his actual word but the gist of it)... that illegal immigration was good because our population of new babies is declining, so we need the immigrant men to father a lot of babies. And many white women/white guilt-ers seem to hate themselves for being white these day. Very sad situation. I heard some good news from my church that I go to sometimes, that the congregation has been growing in leaps and bounds the last few months. Last time I went to Mass, I noticed there were a lot of young families and young people in general.
I am down to virtually zero doubt that the undermining of patriotism, sovereignty, and our constitutional republic are essential steps on the path to global governance. Virtually zero doubt that Mayorkas played his role as instructed in the implementation of this agenda. Thus, he salivated.
This just brings me back to the same question I keep asking: If these people were actually trying to destroy this country, exactly what would they be doing differently???
Even an old Bernie supporter like Joe Rogan has the alertness (and the intellectual integrity) to spot what’s going on. Here’s a clip of him making remarks very similar to yours wrt to the UK.

Nothing would be done differently but working faster...
Council on Foreign Relations members (President) Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas COULD HAVE BEEN IMPEACHED by the Congress - IF ONLY the House & Senate members had READ and KNEW of ARTICLE IV., Section. 4. of the U.S. CONSTITUTION (QUOTE) "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall PROTECT EACH OF THEN FROM INVASION" (my emphasis). Nuff said.
Winner: Farmer with Kid and round bale. 👍🏽
Absolutely. I notice this so often. Give them everything and they expect that everything will be given to them.
The best parenting advice ever given is wrapped up and tied with a neat bow in that last meme.
You "deserve" exactly that which you have earned.
Which brings me to another lesson for the children: "They’re kind of upset with me, not really upset but they don’t understand. I tell them all the time, ‘We ain’t rich. I’m rich.” - Shaquille O'Neal
OK Now my weekend can officially start! Too many great Friday Funnies today to pick just one Where DO you and Jill find these gems! Ive never heard of the Franklin books and was delighted to see this. Read on AMD post this morning that Dr. Millhoan was rehired! Amazing! That would not have happened a few years ago. Progress is being made after all. Keep it up, Dr. Malone. You are our hero! Happy weekend, everyone!
Thanks Dr. M and Jill for so many good memes! Loved the Patrick Henry meme, regarding. The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people. It is an instrument for the people to restrain the government; forwarded it and the rest immediately. Many resonated with me...the one about older rabbit's knees predicting the weather. When I was about ten, I fell while rollerskating and really hurt one of my knees. It was cut open and I saw white cartilage , before the bleeding started. I crawled to the curb and prayed for the bleeding to stop. It finally did and I hobbled home; and taped it together with some adhesive tape; and never said a word about it to my parents. For years, I knew, when it was going to rain...just like the meme.
Boy! An incredible lot today and great news to boot! Incredibly appreciated!
The young chap with the shovel is a winner! The mosquito thing is interesting. My weather service is continuing daily mosquito reports.
Actually, I didn't/would not be electing activist judges.
Franklin is charming. Much success for Franklin.
Dr Milhoan:
Wonderful! Christmas and American values upheld!
The folks of the US, Texas, this Dr's practice and facility stand proud! His credentials and career demonstrate he will unquestionably serve in the best interests of all children and citizenry! That he is well qualified to do so.
It is ever heartening to find justice has prevailed!
On to the weekend and any weather challenges it brings!
Thank you as always 🐎
Had to look up Franklin. Canadian 🙄, prolly only on PBS Kids 🙄, younger than my son, didn’t have a telly during those early years 😁; tho, somehow, don’t think the Franklin depicted in these panels is what we would’a seen had we had a telly and I allowed PBS in da house AND I permitted Canadian children’s programming ( Caillou! - nuff said) wink.
Eww , I could never stand that whinny kid, Caillou! My granddaughter used to watch that show and I always thought of something else to do 🤯😉
Thanks for this week’s Great Friday Funnies.. some really made me laugh out loud!😂
Great news regarding Dr Miloun being reinstated in his position!

My favorite chuckle fest today was the video of "We Lie to YOU".
The father/son duo with the caption ending "until you realize...". My folks had very little to begin with. We girls (mom, sis and I) walked everywhere cause there was only 1 car up until I was starting middle school. I was given a used car in my 3 yr of college. I gave it back as I had grown to enjoy walking and mass transit and did not feel the need or wish to own one. My 1st car ownership came with my 1st child in 1987. I was 36. In contrast, my recently moved away neighbors across the street, with 4 daughters Each had a car. That's mom, dad, 4 girls. Needless to say, around and in front of my home was a continuous parking lot. I suppose that's a judgment on my part, which I try to avoid. On the other hand, it shows just how out of control we are. I mean, really, those 4 girls could not share a car or two? I just got my driver's license renewed for another 10 years. I'll be 85 next time. I guess I'll fit in with the Waymo crowd ok. Plus, the powers that be will probably mandate that I must use one, if I'm still on this planet.
When my kids were little and said they were bored I would tell them I had plenty of things that they could do . Scrub grout, wash baseboards, clean the car etc.
I’m a survivor as well. I always drank from the hose when playing outdoors. Never wore a helmet while riding my bike. I had a few bad crashes. Car didn’t have seatbelts . Laid across the back window and always rode in the back of dad’s pick up truck. I am a live and well. The only broken bone I had was from stubbing my baby toe. Have a great day!
Love it Melanie Reynolds. We had fun growing up poor. Everyone was poor after the war! Snow ice cream. Yummy!!! Keep the snow up north now. We are going to have some cold wind chills tomorrow night they say. So far they have missed our weather here in Alabama. What a nice day today. Love the sunshine and 60s and all my leaves are gone in the back thanks to my yard man!!
