And the Elites are always contained within that 2 Billion… funny coincidence.
Following the three historic snowstorms which buried parts of the U.S. last month, sub-zero temperatures are now blasting hundreds of millions of Americans. Winter has arrived early, as predicted by low solar activity, and a meridional (wavy) jet stream flow.
Lows throughout the week will be more like January temperatures — readings below zero are forecast for many U.S. states, and temps down into the teens are even forecast as far south as Texas.
Some Eastern could experience temperature departures some 30F below the seasonal average on Wednesday afternoon, according to CNN meteorologist Taylor Ward.
While freeze watches and warnings also extend as far south as Florida.
The company revealed that it would no longer donate to the Salvation Army, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and other groups that have been criticized for their stances on LGBTQ issues.

The numbers of the membership loss from the BSA is telling.
The BSA has been an American institution for more than 100 years. During that time more than 105 million men and boys have participated in the program. However, recent years have seen a significant decline in Scouting membership and revenue. In 2014 the Boy Scouts began allowing openly gay boys into Scout troops. The next year, membership fell by about 6 percent, the largest single-year decline in membership in the organization’s history. Between 2013 and 2016 (the last year for which numbers are publicly available), membership has fallen by about 10 percent.
Scouts began accepting gay adult leaders in 2015. Earlier this year, the BSA began accepting transgender boys (girls who identify themselves as boys). The Mormon Church, Scouting’s largest faith-based partner, announced in May it would pull about 185,000 boys out of the program in response to these developments.
Evangelicals have also been exiting the BSA. In 2013, a group of evangelical leaders formed Trail Life USA to provide a safe haven for boys and men who value many aspects of the Boy Scout program, but believe the pro-gay drift has gone too far. At an organizational meeting in 2013 in Nashville, Bill Bunkley, one of the group’s leaders, said, “We’re here to honor the legacy of the Boy Scouts of America but now, quite frankly, we are called in a new direction.” Since that organizational meeting, Trail Life USA has grown to nearly 30,000 members, many of them former Boy Scouts.
I used to donate to the BSA and now I do not, I used to enjoy Chick-Fil-A…
…and now I will not. The same thing I said about the Boy Scouts I say about CFA; they embrace their enemies and push away their friends
We shed blood, we poured out our treasure for years. We beat down their existing order, smashed it flat in fact, and rebuild it painfully and slowly. We rebuilt, we ran elections (cleaner elections than we have at home), rebuilt their armed forces.
At the very least we should have enjoyed the benefits of a client state smack dab in the middle of the Middle East.
But because the GOP couldn’t bring themselves to actually run an election like they wanted to win it and the minor task of establishing American bases and interests fell to an Iranian Deep Cover agent; everything was thrown away. All the lives, all the pain, all the treasure.
We should have left Saddam Hussein in power. Everyone would be better off.
Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch compared herself to the diplomats and contractors killed in Benghazi in her opening statement in the second public impeachment inquiry on Friday.
“We make a difference everyday,” she said in a defense of herself and diplomats serving around the world. She continued:
We are people who repeatedly uproot our lives, who risk and sometimes give our lives for this country. We are the 52 Americans, who, 40 years ago this month, began 444 days of deprivation, torture, and captivity in Tehran. We are the dozens of Americans stationed at our embassies in Cuba, and consulates in China whom mysteriously and dangerously, and perhaps in some cases, perhaps even permanently, were injured and attacked from unknown sources several years ago.
And we are Ambassador Chris Stevens, Shawn Patrick Smith, Ty Woods, and Glen Doherty, people rightly called heroes for their ultimate sacrifice to this nation’s foreign policy interests in Libya eight years ago.
Her comparison of herself to those who were killed in the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack prompted derision and disgust by some observers.
“Ambassador Yovanovitch’s invoking of those killed in Benghazi — in a bid to protect herself — during this impeachment inquiry is utterly sickening,” Benjamin Weingarten, a senior contributor to The Federalist tweeted…
I hope they didn’t forget to put ice into her glass of water, otherwise she might suffer PTSD.
Twitter is supposed to be all hip (can you still say ‘hip’?) and woke and on top of the Social Media mountain and it says that this phrase being repeated across Twitter and the rest of the Web is just being spread by ‘bots’ not humans.
Funny, I identified it as a intelligent and appealing meme the first time I saw it. I’m afraid that Twitter is becoming all cranky and outdated (I’m not really —that afraid…). This is the new “Epstein didn’t kill himself”. By the by, Epstein didn’t kill himself.

We can laugh at them or we can start hanging them, for now. Laugh.
