Oh, I think she is a class act. And she has hired a pretty good speech writer too.

I’m so irritated with our country having to relearn basic lessons. Afghanistan - we had to relearn all lessons learned from Vietnam. The Secret Service loused this one up. 30% female agents? Really? This guy had the shot. I bet he was told to stand down by his superior. /facepalm

Liberal headline “Trump rushed offstage at Pennsylvania rally by Secret Service after loud popping noises heard” Even if you hate Trump, he was our president. This was an assassination attempt. I can’t even imagine what would have happened if he had been killed. We would have had some serious civil unrest.

Reminds me very much of many scriptural accounts in the LDS Canon. Joseph Smith’s first vision. Moses's experience in Moses 1 Alma the younger’s vision in Alma 36:12-21 Sometimes a testimony comes after a trial of faith. I’m glad you followed the prompting to return to the meetinghouse. Ether 12:6 “… for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith.“

Well the KJV obviously served as a catalyst for the JST and The book of Moses. We know less about the book of Abraham. It doesn’t bother me where it came from. I’m just glad to have it. Actually we have even less knowledge as to the origin of the Old and New Testament. I mean, what is the origin of the dead sea scrolls. Did John actually write the book of John. If so, how many times was the original text copied or translated?? It’s the content, spirit, our faith, thoughts, and actions that really matter.

One could argue that because a temple recommend requires tithing compliance…

Id love to see both Trump and Biden out of the race. I wish the Lord would return and reign for 1000 years. Unfortunately, we will have to endure our poor choices. One would wish that the public could learn from its mistakes and make wise decisions. Proverbs 26:11 As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly.

I have no idea what is gonna happen. Republican national convention July 15-18 Obviously Trump will get the presidential nominee. I’m hearing Marco Rubio’s name being repeated for VP. Marco Rubio / Nikki Haley 2028 is reasonable. Democratic national convention Aug 19-22 Kamala Harris / ??? I hope Gavin Newsom won’t be in the running. His CA governorship has been a disaster.

I don’t think she has developmental delay, dementia or a brain disorder. That being said, her responses to questions are often blunders, cackles, and/or poorly conceived lies. The president of the USA should be able to communicate well. Should have an understanding of the political and military stare of affairs domestic and abroad. Ideally, our president should be a person that people respect for his / her insight and strength of character. Someone that terrorists and fascists fear. These are all softball questions from her supporters… What’s gonna happen when she gets into a difficult situation? How will she interact with Putin and Xi Jinping. I remember when our allies didn’t openly mock us…

Democrats are losing their minds. Full panic mode. Time is of the essence. They finally realized he has dementia. Guess what? Dementia does not get better. There may be moments of clarity but his downward spiral will continue.

Where in the constitution is this type of activity supported? After you have a proven vaccine I can understand the government assisting in distribution and subsidizing. But this? I smell pork. Moderna Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results and Provides Business Updates February 22, 2024 Posts fourth quarter revenues of $2.8 billion, GAAP net income of $217 million and GAAP diluted EPS of $0.55 Reaffirms 2024 expected product sales of approximately $4 billion

Service has certainly suffered. ”because reasons” I would love to return to the 80’s. White glove service to your front door. Could you do it for $50??

But right now all this power is always concentrated in one person. One party. Separation of powers is a great thing. I wish the federal government had way less power than it currently does. The original members of the constitution convention would likely be horrified if they could see what we have done.

Matthew 5:13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Well companies have CEO & CFO for a reason. If one guy is doing a great job with the economy and the other guy has us bogged down in warfare we can make adjustments. And vice versa. It’s too much for one guy. Like Moses in Exodus 18:17 And Moses’ father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good. 18 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.
-
Doesn't matter. I bet neither Trump nor Biden has been in a fist fight. One person should be in charge of the economy and domestic issues One guy should be in charge of foreign military decisions. Someone that understands war and has at least previously been in a fist fight and didn’t dodge the draft.

I think we should keep going. The President and Commander in Chief should be 2 different people.

Oh, I definitely side with the wife here.

This is another favorite. “You salt your bacon?!” When I get home I may take a photo of our collection of salt pepper and shakers. I’m a bit of a snob. I like my sea salt shaved. This baby shaves off flakes that increases the surface area of the salt.

Best way to ruin a steak. Add asparagus. And I don’t see the desire for wine. I cant imagine how much my colleagues have wasted on EtOH, wine collections and cellars, etc. I do get some swazzy balsamic vinegars and maple syrups though. I love salt. Overheard at my house. “I already oversalted it” “Yeah, but I didn’t see it go on. And my eyesight isn’t what it used to be.” audible eyeroll.

Didn't Jimmy Carter just serve one term? Maybe they should give him another chance. Or how about this? “First, Biden resigns before the convention. Second, Harris succeeds him as president. Third, with what would be the unanimous assent of the Democratic Caucus (which is all she needs, if she needs even that), Harris appoints Barack Obama as her vice president and registers him as her running mate for the 2024 election.” https://apple.news/AWtv4WSojQgmm9EBXzRzhZg
