Regarding the Venezuela meme, someone needs to take a picture in a NYC store before the Nov 2025 election and then, should Mamdani get elected, take one after the election. The caption could read "New York City before & after socialism" and at the bottom "This only took one election"
😂😂😂! Lots of laughs today, from Clinton and his “ballroom” to Warren’s new addition to the WH. Loved the video on CA. Very true! Let’s hope the end is near!! Thanks for a Sunday morning day brightener!
All of these riots, demonstrations and violence going on are attacks on faith in our nation and ultimately faith in God. These, as most all revolutionaries, have a desire to kill God. If the French Revolution taught us one thing it should be the guillotine has an endless desire for blood. Instead of a tool for justice, it became a symbol of political vengeance and out of control violence. Just as the canceling of people, the debanking of people, jailing persons for political views, going after Christians, the judging of someone based on vaccine status, the guillotine became the states ruthless and indiscriminate power to crush all opposition.
We see the more they want to crush political opposition, the more they call for Trumps head, the bigger the liar the more they call for Trumps head, those who desperately try to conceal their moral transgressions, the more they call for Trumps head, the more they steal from the government the more they call for Trumps head. Is our faith in God to be converted to faith in free bus rides? Free subway rides? Government controlled low rent? Free food from government run grocery stores? Or faith in a new mayors push for legal prostitution?
There is a strong analogy that goes back thousands of years. The story of the great flood is not only an ancient tale but a mirror reflecting times of societal breakdown and moral upheaval. It describes a generation gone astray. A world overwhelmed by chaos, where corruption, arrogance, theft and moral and sexual misconduct runs rampant. In the midst of this collapse God calls too Noah and says “Build An Ark”. This is the divine mandate for all such times. When the world feels unhinged and values seem to erode, we are called on to build an ark, a sacred space of refuge and integrity within our homes, our families and our communities. Building an ark means creating a sanctuary, an environment where goodness, kindness and moral clarity can dwell. Noah is instructed to build his ark publicly, before the eyes of a cynical world so that his steadfastness might awaken others to reflection and change. This to is our aspiration that by living differently, by building our own ark’s, we might inspire others to do the same. So in our time, we to, are called to build our ark’s visibly, courageously to withstand the turbulent waters of confusion and the collapse of moral certainty. And when the storms pass, as they always do, those who have built with faith clarity and compassion will emerge renewed ready to began again to help rebuild a world founded on goodness, humility, moral strength and divine awareness.
In other words tend to your own garden. Don’t preach to other people. Don’t meddle in other people’s business. We’re not going to become perfect people, we’re not going to be better than our neighbor. Our goal is to tend to our own garden, reduce our own corruption, our own arrogance, are own thefts, our own moral and sexual misconducts and turn back to God. We will still be a flawed person. We won’t be perfect but we will feel cleaner knowing we went against the immoral direction this world tried to push us in. The idea is to be a good and moral example for family and community to see.
This community here, the one the two good Drs. Malone assembled, is a great example of a group of people building an ark to ride out the storm, this storm the world forced on us to live through. If we all had chose the path of least resistance where would we as individuals be today. This fight of good verses evil will never end, I don’t believe it’s supposed to.
It’s all about creating a ripple on a quiet pond which eventually will resonate throughout our society and eventually the world. It all starts within us as individuals, building our ark, not an ark built by the government for us to go to. This, I believe, is how real change can happen, it all begins with you. Happy Sunday!

We often ask ourselves how anyone can respond to the siren song of progressives? Consider that we were once an industrial powerhouse with a unrivaled workforce that has been put to pasture by our off loading our manufacturing to other countries and the products of our education apparatus offers employers high school grads reading at 3rd grade level who can hardly write code for a living. So siren songs become irresistible.
Doc Nash, did you hear Dr. Huff's recent chat with Tucker? Like you, I've always believed Progress is painful but it all works out. But are we in similar times? Is what Dr. Huff explains - he does so at about 1:30 - To my ears, it doesn't sound like the normal song of progress. I especially was thankful in that discussion, that Tucker represents us.. he was sickened by what he heard at the exact same time as I felt nausea coming on. Reason - it's a God thang. Evil AI in the hands of the Godless. I'll let Tucker explain. He usually posts his talks for free on his X.
By progress progs mean to progress away from, i.e. rewrite, the Constitution along marxist principles. Do not watch Tucker. Liked him when on Fox but he has taken an odd turn since.
I know many don't like that he's exposing Everything, and is very America First. I believe he's a True Patriot to do so, he likely realizes, if not now, when? Its time. At this point, we're cooked, the road to fix what's broken .. is a very difficult, maybe already an impossible one.
Hi Dr. Nash. I don't watch Tucker either now. My parents were avid watchers. I don't disagree with LOH on him having patriotic 'America First' visions but feel he may be succumbing to the call of celebrity. I may be wrong. I wonder tho, is he on an antisemitism rant or is it directed toward just the Zionists?
What's the Difference?
Anti-Semitic and Anti-Zionist beliefs are often conflated, but they are distinct ideologies with different motivations. Anti-Semitism is a form of prejudice and discrimination against Jewish people based on their ethnicity or religion. On the other hand, Anti-Zionism is opposition to the political ideology of Zionism, which supports the establishment and maintenance of a Jewish state in Israel. While some individuals may hold both Anti-Semitic and Anti-Zionist views, it is important to recognize the differences between the two and not equate criticism of Israeli government policies with hatred towards Jewish people.
I think the thing that turned me around the corner on Tucker was when he interviewed that "historian", I believe his name was Darryl Cooper who spewed some of craziest WWII NAZI fantasies I have ever heard.
Since then I have had a hard time taking him seriously.
(Retired reading/ special Ed teacher here) I think Dewey was the tip of an iceberg. My experience was with curriculum written by big publishing companies (think McGraw Hill types) that catered to the audience that bought the most books (California) and were supervised by the Universities of that state. 30 years ago they pushed “whole language “ (a total failure in reading instruction) and stories on lesbian and homosexual parenting in grade 5 books. I refused to teach that unit. This moral decline in education has been a long time coming.
Phonics is the key to reading, for centuries. But the left thought they knew better and changed it to whole language. I remember that change with my children. All 3 of my children had the same first grade teacher, so when she wanted to change to whole language for the last 2, I objected.
We had a lively discussion about phonics and it ended with my stating, "if you won't teach them phonics, I will." And I did.
My daughter was born in 1970 so things were already going downhill. Perhaps when she was about 3 I realized the whole language, word recognition method of reading was becoming dominant in California and phonics had been abandoned. So we taught her to read long before she started first grade because we wanted to be sure she learned to read with phonics. The result is that she was always way ahead of her class in reading ability and was an above grade level reader on Day 1 of first grade. More important, she has always loved reading and writing.
This article about John Dewey explains a lot. The last two paragraphs describes one of my brothers to a "T". He was a victim of "sight reading" & to this day, struggles with reading & writing. He does what he has to do to get by, but that is the extent of it. He is otherwise very bright, but was short-changed in those formative years, when being taught to read...https://www.henrymakow.com/dewey_imports_soviet_education.html
Here our grads can't read, write or do math. But I have to wonder whether we are failing to accord due credit to the Bush era education reformers. Math was their biggest hit, but expect the damage extended further.
I was there when “No Child Left Behind” became law and we were forced to teach to grade level objectives established by the DOE. The goal being to standardize education across the country. Sounds good but then annual testing first traumatized children and later teachers when kids didn’t / couldn’t measure up. But the real problem wasn’t this skeleton for educational reform. It was the content. Somehow whiz bang nerdy educator elites decided what everyone needed to know. Imagine how badly wrong that could go??!! Here’s but one small example. Fourth graders needed to be able to identify and discriminate between a simile and a metaphor. 4th grader! 10 year olds! I’m 77 and I have never ever not once in real life needed to identify the difference between a simile and a metaphor except maybe in a college English literature class. If your focus is on teaching someone how to digitally construct on paper a fancy hook, they are never going to reel in any ocean fish 🐟 they can actually eat!
I like that there are others on this ark that see the world in a similar fashion as I do. Tells me I’m only half crazy! 🤪 I am traveling to the coast from the mountains today to be with a friend who has just lost her only son to cancer. He was 51, unmarried, no children. When diagnosed the first of January this year, they gave him 3 months, tops. His mother has been there for him through it all. Many prayers have been lifted, but God wanted him now. His pain is over, but hers remains for the rest of her time on earth. He is with his grandparents in heaven on this Sunday morning. For that I am thankful. Have a good day my fellow ark travelers.
You're so optimistic today, James. Wish I could be. But I heard loud and clear this week, too many reasons we really are not ready for optimism yet. Dr. Huff's chat with Tucker - he's goes waay beyond what we've heard him say previously about emerging world worries. He says about mRNA.. "the writing is on the wall", that is, even though there is a lot of Investor's banking on it, it's Done, due to too many cancers. But he explains we are rapidly moving toward other much bigger Worries, the implications and REAL threats of synthetic viruses and synthetic LIFE. He states, "We're already there".
After spending 2 fun days with my gkiddos, 2 and 4 yo this week, I wish I could be optimistic for them. I wish I could only focus on their parent's Ark and My Ark, but I know this is not enough. So, I will continue to meddle - and I bet you plan to do the same. It's our job to push hard Truths, Meddle, and make mistakes doing so.
Such good contemplative thoughts, James. Without these examples to ponder I would be less inclined to dive as deep in my own psyche. I sense a resolve to hold the line and be clear and yet not hateful, for that will only sink us to the level we disdain in others. Quite a delicate walk.
I think, James , that a lot of us have arrived at your conclusions. It’s not just age that in hindsight sight we see what we now despise. It is the collapse of more of our moral fabric than a free society can sustain! Charlie Kirk has brought that into bold relief and thousands are responding. It will take a sustained and permanent transformation to save our constitutional republic! For those (and I’m one) who likes a little guidance, Assention Press has just released the audiobook narrated by Fr Schmidt of The Imitation of Christ by St Thomas A Kempis (probably spelled that wrong). Practical guidance originally for monks but easily modified for ordinary people. I’m not Catholic but still find these writings good for building foundational skills and boundaries in a world swamped with all kinds of evil.
Thanks Barbara. I didn't know of this new release. I been listening to Father Mike Schmitz's Bible in a Year for 2 years. His weekly Homilies are excellent too. 30 years ago, I read Jeff Cavins book Life on the Rock. (He is FMike's partner in the BinY reading plan). Jeff's story is very interesting. He was born a Catholic, left the church, married, became a popular born again type pastor, then, came back to the Catholic church. FMike credits Jeff C with his Bible expertise, he KNOWs the Bible! They are a very cool team. If you get a chance to read Jeff's book, it's a quick, easy and very relatable read. During the BinY 365d readings, you hear Jeff sometimes too, he introduces the different time periods of his Bible Timeline. He's even developed timeline aides - fold out timeline thingees (like 6 bucks), to help us realize what else was going on during the time periods in the Bible.
Absolutely agree. As families, we stay at our local level and take care of ourselvelves, our family, and local town services that we need and bring us happiness. We can do a lot somewhat quietly in our own communities.
I didn’t read the whole Real News article about MAHA because it is so disheartening to see how hard even Republicans are making it for RFK to deliver on his very reasonable policies to make us healthy again. Just this past week I had an epiphany right before a scheduled doctor appointment. Like everyone past 77 I have a growing number of complaints that I would like help with. But this time I just could not make myself go. What’s the use? First, I am sick of arguing with them about stuff I know doesn’t work (statins, vaccines,) They treat me like a collection of car parts. He dutifully takes notes. Prescribed tests which always happen sometime in the future (sometimes months), require travel to some unknown hospital or lab, focus on one issue, and end with an extremely short report delivered by a nurse who says either “nothing’s wrong” or we are referring you to a specialist (which could take months). And maybe he throws some drugs at you. And STILL no help for what I came in for. I just don’t want to be treated like a car with broken parts. I tracked down a functional medicine doctor but haven’t gone yet. Why? Because he has a chiropractic degree. He may be a wonderful self-educated healer. Or a quack. Again… I’ve come to regard the whole tribe of medical professionals with extreme skepticism!! RFK has alluded to opening up the medical field to work on HEALTH and not just disease. And that’s what I need. Stop looking at the complaints first and start looking at the whole organism. And secondarily, be more informative about risks of taking any of the medications offered…. Tylenol for example. Offer drug alternatives… there are quite a few but doctors don’t know them because pharmaceuticals don’t sell them !! I canceled my appointment. Now what?
A chiropractic degree is a good place to start, there are many more of them that understand this dilemma of healthcare. I would choose acupuncture and chiro before most others. Like anything else, use your intuition and common sense. Good luck with sorting this out, Barbara.
Thank you. Maybe I will give this guy a try. He was referred by an independent pharmacist who makes ivermectin and methylene blue available and doesn’t take insurance. I really like HIM. So maybe he knows this Chiopractor and it’s Tennessee where health care is a little freer in terms of personal choice (unless you want to sex change you under 18 child that is). I’m okay with that restriction.
I have felt like this recently! Great analysis Of our healthcare system today. I have no trust anymore and I worked for some great doctors over the years. But where oh where have they gone?
You are not. Those of us who worked in healthcare when Obamacare was rolled out knew we were going to see some rough times. I immediately saw some excellent physicians hang it up rather than join a hospital group, a mega group with severe regulations to their ability to treat patients, and the government’s regulations. When COVID hit, it became worse! My own GP dismissed me from his practice because I would not take the jab. There are still a few independent physicians out there but they are far and few between. God help us! Keep at it, RFKjr. We need you.
You are not alone. I have an appointment in Dec with my PCP and am already questioning whether or not I will go. I’ve seen her 3 times this year, only to be referred to specialists , which took 6 months of waiting for appointments and then the scheduled tests! Being in pain the entire time!
Oh, and my Dec appointment is for my “ annual exam “!! Which means no exam at all🤯
My drs told me I no longer need a pap, mammogram or colonoscopy due to my age. I insisted on a pap. Good thing! I have a low grade squamous cell lesion! Getting it biopsied next week just in case it is more than low grade! Now what if I hadn’t gone in? Would it have developed into cancer? I just do not trust any doctors anymore.
Barbara Lee, I just sent you a comment but now I’m thinking it wasn’t a “Reply” to yours, so please go into the main stream of comments & find it after your comment. I see you mentioned Tennessee and the outfit I mentioned works out of TN.
Barbara Lee, I totally relate to your experience. I’d like to share a resource with you (and anyone else here who’d benefit). There is an affiliation of 4 medical practitioners that hosts a free weekly Zoom session with guest speakers & live Q&A. Wednesdays, 8pm EST. For example, a recent speaker was Dr. Marco Ruggiero, MD PhD who spoke about the gut biome. Then there was an MD out of Texas who analyzes individuals on a biochemical basis to sharpen mental focus. Don’t remember her name (that’s pretty funny, no?) but most sessions are recorded & available online. The regular attendees are pretty sophisticated (there’s a Chat) & I got an organic chemistry course from Great Courses to improve my uptake. Occasionally they’ll have an Ask the Dr session where we can submit questions ahead of time. HealthRevivalPartners.com. Meanwhile, if you’d like, please contact me directly & maybe we can give each other some mutual support, or get a small group together. My email is my first and last name @gmail.com. Cheers!
My husband and I go to a fantastic and well informed functional medicine doctor, and it has made all the difference in the world for us. I highly recommend going this route and leaving the allopathic doctor behind. The world is changing…..💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Doc: I usually only repost my favorite memes from this series as well as the Friday Funnies, but in this case the entire article needs to go viral! Bravo!
The commentary about the waterboarding whistleblower being jailed for telling the truth just turned my stomach. Most of America (readers and authors here, excepted) is upside down and backwards, matching the rest of the world, especially the English speaking world.
The ship is heading for the iceberg and we’re not sure it can be turned around. Sorry, not an optimist.
Please, please look for the optimistic view. We need you, and all of us need to write pages in a new book, "Bright Future". Every day there are people with a cause making a difference. Fight, not just with words, but with actions.
Here's the rest of the story:
Punished for being a whistleblower, he served nearly two years in a federal prison. Since his release, Kiriakou has become a leading advocate for transparency, civil liberties, and whistleblower protections.
Mission Driven: Changes lives worldwide by delivering valuable knowledge and tactics
Greetings from the Thumb Coast of MI. Well, it's a beautiful day here, blue sky, and a slight chill in the air, On the stove for supper a pot of French onion soup, to be poured overtoasted sourdough bread topped with Gruyere cheese. Desser is homemade applesauce laced with honey and dried cranberries. The last two evenings, as a family, joining in with family of the heart, we have eaten away from home. Friday, we stopped in for a bite at a local tavern that, in addition to serving good food, employed a swinging guitar male duo who played and sang for hour after hour of golden oldies, the audience tapping feet, slapping thighs, and joining in when the lyrics were familiar. Saturday, we dined at a local church, in the gymnasium, for the annual supper fundraiser! A packed house for two hours of delicious food, both eat-in and take-out, partakers included members of the community-a-large as well as members of the church congregation. Both events, five stars. No dissension, no angry confrontations, no violence! From early adulthood I've been a people watcher. And, what I noticed in these two events - totally different in format - was the demeanor and dress of those in attendance. The facial expressions were alike: joyful anticipation of a pleasant experience. Conversation was animated and sounds of laughter emanating from tables. The other noticeable feature: the wearing apparel: casual and colorful, no bodily display. It was the color of clothing that caught my attention, no grays. no blacks, but colors - varying in shades and hues. The thought occurred to me, that the two entirely different venues were populated by people who were comfortable with who they are and the lives they were living, enjoyed the companionship and camaraderie of groups, and dared to wear color, telling one and all, that life can be good and full and joyous!
Wearing color is good for the mind, and the soul. For a spirit lifter, select a color that makes you smile for the wearing and walk with a jaunty step. As always, a smile and a laugh directed to the humor of the Malones, Dr. Jill and Dr. Robert! Slainte!
Another group of insightful memes to enjoy with my morning coffee. One of these days I need to read them before I drink my coffee because I spew too much when reading a particularly hilarious one! And so many today!
Navigating healthcare insurance. So true. My premiums have skyrocketed and I do NOT have Obamacare subsidies! Why should others receive it when most of us hardworking Americans (and I worked hard all my life until retirement) do not? Too much “entitlement” mentality today. NYC is a prime example. They are going to vote for the candidate who promises all the freebies of which they are “entitled” to! Safe travels, Drs Malone. We need you!
Big fan of the gender number chart. I'm fairly characterized as a senior. I have been aware of the existence of same sex attraction, partnering and sex most of my life. Associated historical terminology was homosexual, gay, queer, lesbian and precious few others I am passing on. Transgender has manifested late in my life; yet the band width it receives in today's media is horribly disproportionate. I am left to believe that if the media and it's real owner/drivers create a sexuality class, it will be followed by the lost and mindless in our society. Therefore and let it be so that transexuals who have transitioned back to heterosexuality be entitled to minority preferential treatment such as mandatory Government contract participation and more because their lives matter.
Fav today - Docs M, thank you for the MAHA article. Why oh Why! did Trump not do more of the basics we voted him in.. to DO. He's done a lot, but more Pharma Liability! geez. Another easy Win - if he had pdq put a FULL STOP on the Real ID - this could've been an easy, deep meaning Freedom WIN for both MAGA and MAHA. That's not even mentioned in the article, but losing our ID to Govt Control - is a HUGE issue for Americans. I am very worried we lost a few (won't vote next week, is how I think they will mark their disappointments), and that we didn't GAIN R voters - as we could've, Should have.
**Another Fav today - Trying to navigate the healthcare system in America.. The COST, and for what Quality of CARE (AI machines?). Especially, YOUNG families are sinking - and we talk and push AI .. it's so discouraging, depressing to young families! Health insurance and Health Care are completely Out-of-Reach-Out-of-Touch. Great examples this week on X's Wall Street Apes - a post, 2 d ago, a video of a young father explaining he's considering cancelling his family's health ins. He explains the numbers he's crunching. 1500/mo plus 6k/person in deductibles, = 30k in copays + 18k premium = almost 50k/yr before they actually get coverage.
Thanks Debra. I don't need AI at all, but I appreciate Steve K integrity, so, I will keep it in mind. I'd prefer to do research on my own, the investigative Process is important. There is no way I can feel confident in ANY AI's finds or conclusions. Gosh golly, we've been so duped, for over 100 years! - it amazes me, that we are now thinking that One Stop Shopping for Information is a good thing.
I prefer to do my own research too. I've never actually used AI, but can see where it might be helpful for those needing to find information on a particular subject, to add to their base of knowledge. Knowing what to discard is probably just as important as knowing what to retain. That is when discernment becomes especially important. I think discernment went right out the window in 2020. That is when my intuition & instincts, as well as discernment, served me well. Early-on, I recognized the pack of lies we were being fed & all it took was to start connecting dots that went back to the 1980s - especially when it came to Fauci. In short order, those dots revealed a very disturbing picture. Along with other nefarious examples was his use of the same playbook that he used during the AIDS crisis, when he disparaged the use of a very effective drug to treat a specific form of pneumonia (Bactrim) prevalent among AIDS patients & instead pushed the failed cancer drug AZT on these poor people, which made them even more sick. It is estimated that at least 17,000 AIDS patients died needlessly from this form of pneumonia (pneumocystis carninii). Doing my own research in early 2020 was the best thing I ever did. Those lies included those told about the dangers associated with the use of hydroxychloroquine & ivermectin for covid, as well as the "safe & effective" covid "vaccines". It was & remains a very long list of deliberate lies & fabrications & it did not require the use of AI to figure it all out. It only took dogged determination.
Re Healthcare...there are new ways of getting help with health care coverage.. Weshare.org is an example. Re AI.. I listen to Scott Adams Real coffee with Scott Adams mainly because of the information he shares about AI...please note: his healthcare information imho is "average rich American fully bought into the system" so that is not helpful. but with his IT background his realistic info on ai has been helpful and made it less scary for me.
Many on this Substack mention searching for healthcare providers they MAY be able to trust. Some resources include:
✅ Independent Medical Resources
Consider this list of organizations for independent medical information and provider resources. Many do not take insurance, but still could save you money and provide excellent care.
Association of American Physicians & Surgeons (AAPS Online)
Regarding the Venezuela meme, someone needs to take a picture in a NYC store before the Nov 2025 election and then, should Mamdani get elected, take one after the election. The caption could read "New York City before & after socialism" and at the bottom "This only took one election"
They should show the picture of New York when Giuliani was mayor, after laying down the law.
Before Giuliani, you could not sleep at night in Brooklyn because of the firearms being shot off!
The wisdom of Ronald Wilson Reagan. Proven again and again.
I'm seriously questioning the intelligence and sanity of the New Yorkers who will actually vote for Mamdani.
Remember, half of the population of this country live on the left side of the Bell Curve. ( IQ = 98 or less)
Amen
I thought the same thing!
😂😂😂! Lots of laughs today, from Clinton and his “ballroom” to Warren’s new addition to the WH. Loved the video on CA. Very true! Let’s hope the end is near!! Thanks for a Sunday morning day brightener!
Sunday Thoughts
All of these riots, demonstrations and violence going on are attacks on faith in our nation and ultimately faith in God. These, as most all revolutionaries, have a desire to kill God. If the French Revolution taught us one thing it should be the guillotine has an endless desire for blood. Instead of a tool for justice, it became a symbol of political vengeance and out of control violence. Just as the canceling of people, the debanking of people, jailing persons for political views, going after Christians, the judging of someone based on vaccine status, the guillotine became the states ruthless and indiscriminate power to crush all opposition.
We see the more they want to crush political opposition, the more they call for Trumps head, the bigger the liar the more they call for Trumps head, those who desperately try to conceal their moral transgressions, the more they call for Trumps head, the more they steal from the government the more they call for Trumps head. Is our faith in God to be converted to faith in free bus rides? Free subway rides? Government controlled low rent? Free food from government run grocery stores? Or faith in a new mayors push for legal prostitution?
There is a strong analogy that goes back thousands of years. The story of the great flood is not only an ancient tale but a mirror reflecting times of societal breakdown and moral upheaval. It describes a generation gone astray. A world overwhelmed by chaos, where corruption, arrogance, theft and moral and sexual misconduct runs rampant. In the midst of this collapse God calls too Noah and says “Build An Ark”. This is the divine mandate for all such times. When the world feels unhinged and values seem to erode, we are called on to build an ark, a sacred space of refuge and integrity within our homes, our families and our communities. Building an ark means creating a sanctuary, an environment where goodness, kindness and moral clarity can dwell. Noah is instructed to build his ark publicly, before the eyes of a cynical world so that his steadfastness might awaken others to reflection and change. This to is our aspiration that by living differently, by building our own ark’s, we might inspire others to do the same. So in our time, we to, are called to build our ark’s visibly, courageously to withstand the turbulent waters of confusion and the collapse of moral certainty. And when the storms pass, as they always do, those who have built with faith clarity and compassion will emerge renewed ready to began again to help rebuild a world founded on goodness, humility, moral strength and divine awareness.
In other words tend to your own garden. Don’t preach to other people. Don’t meddle in other people’s business. We’re not going to become perfect people, we’re not going to be better than our neighbor. Our goal is to tend to our own garden, reduce our own corruption, our own arrogance, are own thefts, our own moral and sexual misconducts and turn back to God. We will still be a flawed person. We won’t be perfect but we will feel cleaner knowing we went against the immoral direction this world tried to push us in. The idea is to be a good and moral example for family and community to see.
This community here, the one the two good Drs. Malone assembled, is a great example of a group of people building an ark to ride out the storm, this storm the world forced on us to live through. If we all had chose the path of least resistance where would we as individuals be today. This fight of good verses evil will never end, I don’t believe it’s supposed to.
It’s all about creating a ripple on a quiet pond which eventually will resonate throughout our society and eventually the world. It all starts within us as individuals, building our ark, not an ark built by the government for us to go to. This, I believe, is how real change can happen, it all begins with you. Happy Sunday! J.Goodrich
We often ask ourselves how anyone can respond to the siren song of progressives? Consider that we were once an industrial powerhouse with a unrivaled workforce that has been put to pasture by our off loading our manufacturing to other countries and the products of our education apparatus offers employers high school grads reading at 3rd grade level who can hardly write code for a living. So siren songs become irresistible.
Doc Nash, did you hear Dr. Huff's recent chat with Tucker? Like you, I've always believed Progress is painful but it all works out. But are we in similar times?

Evil AI in the hands of the Godless. I'll let Tucker explain. He usually posts his talks for free on his X.
By progress progs mean to progress away from, i.e. rewrite, the Constitution along marxist principles. Do not watch Tucker. Liked him when on Fox but he has taken an odd turn since.
I know many don't like that he's exposing Everything, and is very America First. I believe he's a True Patriot to do so, he likely realizes, if not now, when? Its time. At this point, we're cooked, the road to fix what's broken .. is a very difficult, maybe already an impossible one.
On an anti-semitism rant that does not make much sense
Hi Dr. Nash. I don't watch Tucker either now. My parents were avid watchers. I don't disagree with LOH on him having patriotic 'America First' visions but feel he may be succumbing to the call of celebrity. I may be wrong. I wonder tho, is he on an antisemitism rant or is it directed toward just the Zionists?
What's the Difference?
Anti-Semitic and Anti-Zionist beliefs are often conflated, but they are distinct ideologies with different motivations. Anti-Semitism is a form of prejudice and discrimination against Jewish people based on their ethnicity or religion. On the other hand, Anti-Zionism is opposition to the political ideology of Zionism, which supports the establishment and maintenance of a Jewish state in Israel. While some individuals may hold both Anti-Semitic and Anti-Zionist views, it is important to recognize the differences between the two and not equate criticism of Israeli government policies with hatred towards Jewish people.
This right here!
I think the thing that turned me around the corner on Tucker was when he interviewed that "historian", I believe his name was Darryl Cooper who spewed some of craziest WWII NAZI fantasies I have ever heard.
Since then I have had a hard time taking him seriously.
i never really followed him much but definitely seems to have taken an strange tack.
I truly don’t understand what has happened to Tucker Carlson or Candace Owens! Bizarre rants! 🥺😩🤯
In large part, we have John Dewey to thank for the high school grads that read at a 3rd grade level.
(Retired reading/ special Ed teacher here) I think Dewey was the tip of an iceberg. My experience was with curriculum written by big publishing companies (think McGraw Hill types) that catered to the audience that bought the most books (California) and were supervised by the Universities of that state. 30 years ago they pushed “whole language “ (a total failure in reading instruction) and stories on lesbian and homosexual parenting in grade 5 books. I refused to teach that unit. This moral decline in education has been a long time coming.
Phonics is the key to reading, for centuries. But the left thought they knew better and changed it to whole language. I remember that change with my children. All 3 of my children had the same first grade teacher, so when she wanted to change to whole language for the last 2, I objected.
We had a lively discussion about phonics and it ended with my stating, "if you won't teach them phonics, I will." And I did.
My daughter was born in 1970 so things were already going downhill. Perhaps when she was about 3 I realized the whole language, word recognition method of reading was becoming dominant in California and phonics had been abandoned. So we taught her to read long before she started first grade because we wanted to be sure she learned to read with phonics. The result is that she was always way ahead of her class in reading ability and was an above grade level reader on Day 1 of first grade. More important, she has always loved reading and writing.
This article about John Dewey explains a lot. The last two paragraphs describes one of my brothers to a "T". He was a victim of "sight reading" & to this day, struggles with reading & writing. He does what he has to do to get by, but that is the extent of it. He is otherwise very bright, but was short-changed in those formative years, when being taught to read...https://www.henrymakow.com/dewey_imports_soviet_education.html
Here our grads can't read, write or do math. But I have to wonder whether we are failing to accord due credit to the Bush era education reformers. Math was their biggest hit, but expect the damage extended further.
I was there when “No Child Left Behind” became law and we were forced to teach to grade level objectives established by the DOE. The goal being to standardize education across the country. Sounds good but then annual testing first traumatized children and later teachers when kids didn’t / couldn’t measure up. But the real problem wasn’t this skeleton for educational reform. It was the content. Somehow whiz bang nerdy educator elites decided what everyone needed to know. Imagine how badly wrong that could go??!! Here’s but one small example. Fourth graders needed to be able to identify and discriminate between a simile and a metaphor. 4th grader! 10 year olds! I’m 77 and I have never ever not once in real life needed to identify the difference between a simile and a metaphor except maybe in a college English literature class. If your focus is on teaching someone how to digitally construct on paper a fancy hook, they are never going to reel in any ocean fish 🐟 they can actually eat!

I like that there are others on this ark that see the world in a similar fashion as I do. Tells me I’m only half crazy! 🤪 I am traveling to the coast from the mountains today to be with a friend who has just lost her only son to cancer. He was 51, unmarried, no children. When diagnosed the first of January this year, they gave him 3 months, tops. His mother has been there for him through it all. Many prayers have been lifted, but God wanted him now. His pain is over, but hers remains for the rest of her time on earth. He is with his grandparents in heaven on this Sunday morning. For that I am thankful. Have a good day my fellow ark travelers.
Wait⁉️
What⁉️
We’re on an ARK⁉️
Somehow I missed out on the “pair up,” “mate up” memo.
Have we shoved off yet, do I have time?
Relax, Miller...that memo was only for the animals!
Wait⁉️
What⁉️
Now I’m not an animal⁉️ 😢
I don’t feel like a plant 🧐
Maybe I’m a virus 🤔
I can (almost) quote Mr Smith’s soliloquy in The Matrix.
Would explain the date-mate problem: I keep infecting them.
I speak Jesus over this woman. God knows who she is.
You're so optimistic today, James. Wish I could be. But I heard loud and clear this week, too many reasons we really are not ready for optimism yet. Dr. Huff's chat with Tucker - he's goes waay beyond what we've heard him say previously about emerging world worries. He says about mRNA.. "the writing is on the wall", that is, even though there is a lot of Investor's banking on it, it's Done, due to too many cancers. But he explains we are rapidly moving toward other much bigger Worries, the implications and REAL threats of synthetic viruses and synthetic LIFE. He states, "We're already there".
After spending 2 fun days with my gkiddos, 2 and 4 yo this week, I wish I could be optimistic for them. I wish I could only focus on their parent's Ark and My Ark, but I know this is not enough. So, I will continue to meddle - and I bet you plan to do the same. It's our job to push hard Truths, Meddle, and make mistakes doing so.
Such good contemplative thoughts, James. Without these examples to ponder I would be less inclined to dive as deep in my own psyche. I sense a resolve to hold the line and be clear and yet not hateful, for that will only sink us to the level we disdain in others. Quite a delicate walk.
I think, James , that a lot of us have arrived at your conclusions. It’s not just age that in hindsight sight we see what we now despise. It is the collapse of more of our moral fabric than a free society can sustain! Charlie Kirk has brought that into bold relief and thousands are responding. It will take a sustained and permanent transformation to save our constitutional republic! For those (and I’m one) who likes a little guidance, Assention Press has just released the audiobook narrated by Fr Schmidt of The Imitation of Christ by St Thomas A Kempis (probably spelled that wrong). Practical guidance originally for monks but easily modified for ordinary people. I’m not Catholic but still find these writings good for building foundational skills and boundaries in a world swamped with all kinds of evil.
Thanks Barbara. I didn't know of this new release. I been listening to Father Mike Schmitz's Bible in a Year for 2 years. His weekly Homilies are excellent too. 30 years ago, I read Jeff Cavins book Life on the Rock. (He is FMike's partner in the BinY reading plan). Jeff's story is very interesting. He was born a Catholic, left the church, married, became a popular born again type pastor, then, came back to the Catholic church. FMike credits Jeff C with his Bible expertise, he KNOWs the Bible! They are a very cool team. If you get a chance to read Jeff's book, it's a quick, easy and very relatable read. During the BinY 365d readings, you hear Jeff sometimes too, he introduces the different time periods of his Bible Timeline. He's even developed timeline aides - fold out timeline thingees (like 6 bucks), to help us realize what else was going on during the time periods in the Bible.
Absolutely agree. As families, we stay at our local level and take care of ourselvelves, our family, and local town services that we need and bring us happiness. We can do a lot somewhat quietly in our own communities.
Right on James! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻✝️‼️
Great way to start a Sunday. Thanks, Doc!
And if we couldn't laugh at these lunatics and fools, we'd be crying for the degeneration of our nation.
Love my sanctuary gun safe!
It gives my undocumented firearms a place to call home in nanny state NY.
Love the warren wing to the White House.
Did she set up her Teepee while Trump is away?!?
Good question
I didn’t read the whole Real News article about MAHA because it is so disheartening to see how hard even Republicans are making it for RFK to deliver on his very reasonable policies to make us healthy again. Just this past week I had an epiphany right before a scheduled doctor appointment. Like everyone past 77 I have a growing number of complaints that I would like help with. But this time I just could not make myself go. What’s the use? First, I am sick of arguing with them about stuff I know doesn’t work (statins, vaccines,) They treat me like a collection of car parts. He dutifully takes notes. Prescribed tests which always happen sometime in the future (sometimes months), require travel to some unknown hospital or lab, focus on one issue, and end with an extremely short report delivered by a nurse who says either “nothing’s wrong” or we are referring you to a specialist (which could take months). And maybe he throws some drugs at you. And STILL no help for what I came in for. I just don’t want to be treated like a car with broken parts. I tracked down a functional medicine doctor but haven’t gone yet. Why? Because he has a chiropractic degree. He may be a wonderful self-educated healer. Or a quack. Again… I’ve come to regard the whole tribe of medical professionals with extreme skepticism!! RFK has alluded to opening up the medical field to work on HEALTH and not just disease. And that’s what I need. Stop looking at the complaints first and start looking at the whole organism. And secondarily, be more informative about risks of taking any of the medications offered…. Tylenol for example. Offer drug alternatives… there are quite a few but doctors don’t know them because pharmaceuticals don’t sell them !! I canceled my appointment. Now what?
A chiropractic degree is a good place to start, there are many more of them that understand this dilemma of healthcare. I would choose acupuncture and chiro before most others. Like anything else, use your intuition and common sense. Good luck with sorting this out, Barbara.
Thank you. Maybe I will give this guy a try. He was referred by an independent pharmacist who makes ivermectin and methylene blue available and doesn’t take insurance. I really like HIM. So maybe he knows this Chiopractor and it’s Tennessee where health care is a little freer in terms of personal choice (unless you want to sex change you under 18 child that is). I’m okay with that restriction.
I have felt like this recently! Great analysis Of our healthcare system today. I have no trust anymore and I worked for some great doctors over the years. But where oh where have they gone?
Yes, WHERE? Thanks for letting me know I’m not alone and just neurotic.
You are not. Those of us who worked in healthcare when Obamacare was rolled out knew we were going to see some rough times. I immediately saw some excellent physicians hang it up rather than join a hospital group, a mega group with severe regulations to their ability to treat patients, and the government’s regulations. When COVID hit, it became worse! My own GP dismissed me from his practice because I would not take the jab. There are still a few independent physicians out there but they are far and few between. God help us! Keep at it, RFKjr. We need you.
You are not alone. I have an appointment in Dec with my PCP and am already questioning whether or not I will go. I’ve seen her 3 times this year, only to be referred to specialists , which took 6 months of waiting for appointments and then the scheduled tests! Being in pain the entire time!
Oh, and my Dec appointment is for my “ annual exam “!! Which means no exam at all🤯
My drs told me I no longer need a pap, mammogram or colonoscopy due to my age. I insisted on a pap. Good thing! I have a low grade squamous cell lesion! Getting it biopsied next week just in case it is more than low grade! Now what if I hadn’t gone in? Would it have developed into cancer? I just do not trust any doctors anymore.
Barbara Lee, I just sent you a comment but now I’m thinking it wasn’t a “Reply” to yours, so please go into the main stream of comments & find it after your comment. I see you mentioned Tennessee and the outfit I mentioned works out of TN.
Barbara Lee, I totally relate to your experience. I’d like to share a resource with you (and anyone else here who’d benefit). There is an affiliation of 4 medical practitioners that hosts a free weekly Zoom session with guest speakers & live Q&A. Wednesdays, 8pm EST. For example, a recent speaker was Dr. Marco Ruggiero, MD PhD who spoke about the gut biome. Then there was an MD out of Texas who analyzes individuals on a biochemical basis to sharpen mental focus. Don’t remember her name (that’s pretty funny, no?) but most sessions are recorded & available online. The regular attendees are pretty sophisticated (there’s a Chat) & I got an organic chemistry course from Great Courses to improve my uptake. Occasionally they’ll have an Ask the Dr session where we can submit questions ahead of time. HealthRevivalPartners.com. Meanwhile, if you’d like, please contact me directly & maybe we can give each other some mutual support, or get a small group together. My email is my first and last name @gmail.com. Cheers!
My husband and I go to a fantastic and well informed functional medicine doctor, and it has made all the difference in the world for us. I highly recommend going this route and leaving the allopathic doctor behind. The world is changing…..💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
What state are you in may I ask? Anywhere near Kentucky?
No unfortunately not. We are in South Carolina. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Jennifer, what is a “functional” medicine Dr?
Doc: I usually only repost my favorite memes from this series as well as the Friday Funnies, but in this case the entire article needs to go viral! Bravo!
The commentary about the waterboarding whistleblower being jailed for telling the truth just turned my stomach. Most of America (readers and authors here, excepted) is upside down and backwards, matching the rest of the world, especially the English speaking world.
The ship is heading for the iceberg and we’re not sure it can be turned around. Sorry, not an optimist.
Please, please look for the optimistic view. We need you, and all of us need to write pages in a new book, "Bright Future". Every day there are people with a cause making a difference. Fight, not just with words, but with actions.
Here's the rest of the story:
Punished for being a whistleblower, he served nearly two years in a federal prison. Since his release, Kiriakou has become a leading advocate for transparency, civil liberties, and whistleblower protections.

That "thing" with the nose ring always makes me thing of my one pup Layla.
She has to be walked on a leash most of the time and I am looking for the ring on her collar before we go out.
Does a leash get hooked to that nose ring to keep it from getting in trouble chasing a squirrel or the neighbors cat?
Your funnies are the best part of waking up on Sunday. I don't know how you do it but I believe I know why you do it. Thank you.
Greetings from the Thumb Coast of MI. Well, it's a beautiful day here, blue sky, and a slight chill in the air, On the stove for supper a pot of French onion soup, to be poured overtoasted sourdough bread topped with Gruyere cheese. Desser is homemade applesauce laced with honey and dried cranberries. The last two evenings, as a family, joining in with family of the heart, we have eaten away from home. Friday, we stopped in for a bite at a local tavern that, in addition to serving good food, employed a swinging guitar male duo who played and sang for hour after hour of golden oldies, the audience tapping feet, slapping thighs, and joining in when the lyrics were familiar. Saturday, we dined at a local church, in the gymnasium, for the annual supper fundraiser! A packed house for two hours of delicious food, both eat-in and take-out, partakers included members of the community-a-large as well as members of the church congregation. Both events, five stars. No dissension, no angry confrontations, no violence! From early adulthood I've been a people watcher. And, what I noticed in these two events - totally different in format - was the demeanor and dress of those in attendance. The facial expressions were alike: joyful anticipation of a pleasant experience. Conversation was animated and sounds of laughter emanating from tables. The other noticeable feature: the wearing apparel: casual and colorful, no bodily display. It was the color of clothing that caught my attention, no grays. no blacks, but colors - varying in shades and hues. The thought occurred to me, that the two entirely different venues were populated by people who were comfortable with who they are and the lives they were living, enjoyed the companionship and camaraderie of groups, and dared to wear color, telling one and all, that life can be good and full and joyous!
Wearing color is good for the mind, and the soul. For a spirit lifter, select a color that makes you smile for the wearing and walk with a jaunty step. As always, a smile and a laugh directed to the humor of the Malones, Dr. Jill and Dr. Robert! Slainte!
I was uplifted by just reading your post!
And, I for yours! Thank you. Slainte!
Slainte Agatsa!
Another group of insightful memes to enjoy with my morning coffee. One of these days I need to read them before I drink my coffee because I spew too much when reading a particularly hilarious one! And so many today!
Navigating healthcare insurance. So true. My premiums have skyrocketed and I do NOT have Obamacare subsidies! Why should others receive it when most of us hardworking Americans (and I worked hard all my life until retirement) do not? Too much “entitlement” mentality today. NYC is a prime example. They are going to vote for the candidate who promises all the freebies of which they are “entitled” to! Safe travels, Drs Malone. We need you!
Big fan of the gender number chart. I'm fairly characterized as a senior. I have been aware of the existence of same sex attraction, partnering and sex most of my life. Associated historical terminology was homosexual, gay, queer, lesbian and precious few others I am passing on. Transgender has manifested late in my life; yet the band width it receives in today's media is horribly disproportionate. I am left to believe that if the media and it's real owner/drivers create a sexuality class, it will be followed by the lost and mindless in our society. Therefore and let it be so that transexuals who have transitioned back to heterosexuality be entitled to minority preferential treatment such as mandatory Government contract participation and more because their lives matter.
I spent much of my childhood in England, where "gay" meant "happy" and "queer" meant "odd." 😆
Fav today - Docs M, thank you for the MAHA article. Why oh Why! did Trump not do more of the basics we voted him in.. to DO. He's done a lot, but more Pharma Liability! geez. Another easy Win - if he had pdq put a FULL STOP on the Real ID - this could've been an easy, deep meaning Freedom WIN for both MAGA and MAHA. That's not even mentioned in the article, but losing our ID to Govt Control - is a HUGE issue for Americans. I am very worried we lost a few (won't vote next week, is how I think they will mark their disappointments), and that we didn't GAIN R voters - as we could've, Should have.
**Another Fav today - Trying to navigate the healthcare system in America.. The COST, and for what Quality of CARE (AI machines?). Especially, YOUNG families are sinking - and we talk and push AI .. it's so discouraging, depressing to young families! Health insurance and Health Care are completely Out-of-Reach-Out-of-Touch. Great examples this week on X's Wall Street Apes - a post, 2 d ago, a video of a young father explaining he's considering cancelling his family's health ins. He explains the numbers he's crunching. 1500/mo plus 6k/person in deductibles, = 30k in copays + 18k premium = almost 50k/yr before they actually get coverage.
You may want to check out this new AI, called AlterAI, which was created to provide the truth about things. How novel...https://open.substack.com/pub/stevekirsch/p/my-favorite-ai-chatbot-is-alterai?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
Steve seems to be a great guy and helps navigate this ever changing world.
Thanks Debra. I don't need AI at all, but I appreciate Steve K integrity, so, I will keep it in mind. I'd prefer to do research on my own, the investigative Process is important. There is no way I can feel confident in ANY AI's finds or conclusions. Gosh golly, we've been so duped, for over 100 years! - it amazes me, that we are now thinking that One Stop Shopping for Information is a good thing.
I prefer to do my own research too. I've never actually used AI, but can see where it might be helpful for those needing to find information on a particular subject, to add to their base of knowledge. Knowing what to discard is probably just as important as knowing what to retain. That is when discernment becomes especially important. I think discernment went right out the window in 2020. That is when my intuition & instincts, as well as discernment, served me well. Early-on, I recognized the pack of lies we were being fed & all it took was to start connecting dots that went back to the 1980s - especially when it came to Fauci. In short order, those dots revealed a very disturbing picture. Along with other nefarious examples was his use of the same playbook that he used during the AIDS crisis, when he disparaged the use of a very effective drug to treat a specific form of pneumonia (Bactrim) prevalent among AIDS patients & instead pushed the failed cancer drug AZT on these poor people, which made them even more sick. It is estimated that at least 17,000 AIDS patients died needlessly from this form of pneumonia (pneumocystis carninii). Doing my own research in early 2020 was the best thing I ever did. Those lies included those told about the dangers associated with the use of hydroxychloroquine & ivermectin for covid, as well as the "safe & effective" covid "vaccines". It was & remains a very long list of deliberate lies & fabrications & it did not require the use of AI to figure it all out. It only took dogged determination.
Re Healthcare...there are new ways of getting help with health care coverage.. Weshare.org is an example. Re AI.. I listen to Scott Adams Real coffee with Scott Adams mainly because of the information he shares about AI...please note: his healthcare information imho is "average rich American fully bought into the system" so that is not helpful. but with his IT background his realistic info on ai has been helpful and made it less scary for me.
Many on this Substack mention searching for healthcare providers they MAY be able to trust. Some resources include:
✅ Independent Medical Resources
Consider this list of organizations for independent medical information and provider resources. Many do not take insurance, but still could save you money and provide excellent care.
Association of American Physicians & Surgeons (AAPS Online)
AAPS Patient Resources & Medical Providers (Direct Primary, Cash Pay, etc)
The Wedge of Health Freedom
DPC Frontier - DPC Practice Mapper (DPC means Direct Primary Care)
Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC)
FLCCC Medical Providers
Physicians for Informed Consent
For cancer care, consider approaches that have been suppressed or ridiculed for decades or recently. Two examples:
