The thing about Jags is they were always a maintenance nightmare. Was given a ride in one of the first E-series imported here and the owner had the tailpipe(s) wired to the chasis. Was not a happy owner. Their engines basically designed for racing and hated stop and go driving...needed frequent tune ups
Oh, but they were lovely. Won a Jaguar for a long weekend in a charity auction. Drove the back roads from Washington State to British Columbia, enjoyed every minute. Returned to the dealer at the end of the trip and still have moments of regret about that. Not every joy in life has to be "practical".
They new how to tan cowhides into the finest leather seating and door panels.
But the Italians always did it one leap better. I drove a 2018 Maserati convert 2 seater with twin turbo 660 hp with paddle shifters and 6000 rpm rev limiters.
But the interior was all wrapped in rich dark choco leather with stitching that would make a Mexican boot maker weep with envy. UNREAL use of fine leather.
Impossible to drive it as a concerned motorist! So I didn't!!! VROOOOOM......
Of all the things that a proud owner could ever enjoy is the craftsmanship of the finest auto cockpit money can buy. It need not even have to leave the garage. Just sit in splendor and smell the excellence. PS Its a ROCKETSHIP!
My body remembers the speed and agility of my Alfa. Its cockpit was nothing special. The thought of a rocketship is quite stirring.
Here's the end of that story: traded it in on a diesel Mercedes sedan. I needed reliable more than I needed sporty. I've been driving Mercedes ever since, I'm on my 5th? Handsome, comfortable, conservative gas guzzler, safe, and paid for. It handles well, for a medium-sized sedan (E350). The glory Mercedes was a 1998 S500, a V12. On mountain roads it handled better than the Alfa (when I could overcome caution and fear). I quickly came to appreciate the MPG meter, it could suck gas at 70 MPH.
I went looking for a pic of a 130. What I found was a XK 130. I know hardly anything about the models. Speaking of roadster look, what about the TR3? A co-worker had one maybe 60 years ago, when we were a bit younger. Somehow I think of that car having a roadster look.
It's so much fun these days seeing one of those cars on the streets near me. Glad they are still runnng and well-kept and . . . appreciated.
Headline in AZ Republic Newspaper today! RFK Jr. pick alarms LGBTQ+ advocates.
Critics say he spreads harmful misinformation. Big Medicine/Big Pharma don't want their golden eggs to vaporize. I guess they didn't read the book. "The Real Anthony Fauci". He destroyed the career of a researcher who pointed out that many with HIV never developed AIDS. Then Fauci pushed AZT that killed most of the gays. The push to discredit RFK Jr. valiant efforts has only just begun and our left leaning newspapers won't publish the truth of what is wrong with our medical system in the USA. Bottom line TRUMPS Good Medicine in the USA!
That's why we are in left field alone spending double what any other country spends per capita!
Thanks for the coffee & covid tip. Ad is on point, but I’ll never trust them again.
On the other hand, in that C&C site, it spoke about a Salon owner (Shelley Luther) who was jailed during covid and now is in the legislature speaking about limiting the Governor’s emergency powers. THIS is what’s needed! On another substack, (Igor Chudov), I learned that the announcement from Trump on his appointment of Dr. Janette Nesheiwat as Surgeon General includes, “…she worked on the front lines…and helped patients in the aftermath of President Donald trump’s Historic Operation Warp Speed that saved hundreds of millions of lives.” This is from November 22, 2024 And also that Nesheiwat is wholeheartedly supported by Prof Peter Hotez, MD. PhD
I have such a sinking feeling about this. He record doesn’t look like someone who will stand up to inconvenient truths but rather someone who will follow behind “the Science”. I can’t imagine Trump couldn’t have found a better nominee.
Yes. I don’t think that ad will make the guys at the bar buy it. Also the CDC head nominee will make up for the SG I think. Let’s see how it all shakes out. And the Drs Malones input :))))
I saw it embedded in Coffee and Covid on Substack Friday the 22nd My tech skills are really low end LOL! but I think if you even google it u can see it :)))
Hmmm. Normally you don't see jaguars go after humans like that. These cats probably mistook them for large bottles of ketchup and mustard, which are their preferred prey. It's why you'll never find hot dog stands in the Amazon jungle.
I’m always amazed how “right here” I learn so much. I’m very grateful for the Malones, all of your great hard work, and all of you that constantly give me different perspectives, make me think and learn, thank you. I’ve always said “hang out with smarter people and you will continue to learn”, thanks for letting me be here!
One thing I’ve learned over my 60 years is when I see someone that is working really hard, struggled to raise good kids, or someone helping another, I honor them with a compliment, “your doing a great job”. We all carry honor and have it to give. When we honor someone we’re not just doing them a favor, we are doing ourselves a favor. When showing honor there is a commanded blessing that will be returned back into our own life. It can be as simple as giving up your seat to an older person, let someone go ahead of you in a line, or just complimenting someone. The amount of honor that you show is directly related to the amount of Gods favor you will see in your life.
Paul said in Ephesians 6 “Honor your father and mother” which is the first commandment with a promise, “so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy a long life”. This is saying, honor should start at home. It should start in our own family with those closest to us. We should never treat complete strangers better than our family or spouse, it should be opposite that. Young people should listen to their parents. Mark Twain said “When I was 14, my father was so dumb, I could hardly stand to be around him, but when I got to be 21, I was amazed at how much the man had learned”. We should not honor our parents with just words but with how we treat them.
One thing I am sure of, you will never change a dishonorable situation by adding more dishonor. That will always make matters worse. Honoring someone lifts them. You should honor people the way you would want them to be.
I can’t tell you how much respect I have for women. For centuries women have worked and fought for their position in this world. In a general sense, you will never gain honor, and should not gain that honor, by dishonoring women, plain and simple. You will never receive what you are not willing to give, and if you don’t give honor you won’t have honor. The present dishonor shown to women today saddens me. It is a sign of a sickness spread in our society. The key to a breakthrough that we pray for, is to honor the people and women that God has put in our lives in a greater way.
The only way I see so many of these problems in our world today being resolved, is for people and government to return to honoring and respecting the people, and their God given freedoms, free thoughts, privacies and liberties, anything short of that is surely done with the intent to divide us. J.Goodrich
Well, as much as I appreciate the Friday and Sunday blessings, my main takeaway the past few months is that i need a larger screen and smaller thumbs. 😉 😂 💰 Fortunately, perhaps, my iPhone Tennis (XS) is EOL’d so in only 10, 11 months my wish will come true.
Now, as for more, or any, respect from the gummint, do mean from those we elect to manage and thems that are employed to run the gummint? Then I’m with you, BUT gov’t in/of/by itself cannot do respect as it is an artificial entity. To get to the respect I agree we need/should have will require limiting the size of gov’t by enacting term limits, returning the Senate to the States, eliminating the civil servants from exercising legislative like ability (force the Legislature to BE a legislature) and limiting the size of the civil service and the length of time one works for/in civil service - the idea being that at some point, sooner than later, everyone/anyone in any facet of government will have to return to and live amongst the people
When I was a gov ee (a good while ago) I used to reflect on how unfair it seemed that we were being paid so much more than the private sectot.The PS was where real work was happening.
Back in the deep dark dim recesses of what I humorously call my memory, don’t remember if it was a governmental history class or a law school class, I do remember that the civil service classification was a compromise: in exchange for some employment protections they settled for lower wages than in the private sector and no unionization. Well, we can see how that faired: most of the top income counties in USofA surround DC and gummint unions are the only unions that are really growing.
I shouldn’t, but I do have a bit of a conflict in this: dad went to work for the gummint right after he completed his Ph.D program, starting as a post doc, and kept climbing the GS ladder right to end. The thing that bugs me is I’m not sure he would have had as successful a career doing what he did in the area he was in the private sector - 🤷♀️. What further bugs me is that even when the private sector shrinks the gummint sector continues to grow. The gummint produces nothing (well, essentially nothing), the private sector is the engine but we allow the GS to act as a governor on the PS - as a result when we should be having the greatest growth in the modern era due to the transformative power of current tech we’re practically idling. We have massive transfer of wealth from the productive sector to unproductive lay-abouts, invaders, etc., but also to the government sector. The amount of friction involved in this fiscal flow is so great if it obeyed the laws of physics/thermodynamics we would’a reached self-combustion a decade or more ago.
SR Miller, I don’t think I’ve said this before but I am hoping and looking forward to shrinkage! (of government) When I look at people like Merrick Garland, Tony Blinken, James Sullivan, and the rest of these characters, too many to list, I see them all sleeping on their feathered beds, stuffing their faces will filets and lobsta’s and sending innocent people to prison, law fare, and now sending our kids off to war, so they can get more wealthy. You can work for a company that helps make a gear or a computer chip a cone for a missile or a company that makes nasal swabs and machines to test for Covid, and you all got fithy rich off the suffering of others. Sure you were just making the pieces, doing what you were told, watching your account grow while others struggled. Well I hope struggling people that actually produce the things everyday people need and want will see an uptick in their bank accounts. It’s funny when I talk to people that have profited greatly off the pandemic and the wars they’re all upset and worried about Trump being president. They wanted Harris to continue their income stream. I have a neighbor that lobbied congress for money to get everything the army gets, he’s said from a bullet to a Blackhawk helicopter to Abraham tanks, he was a lieutenant colonel. When Biden got in he said things went back to normal. It got back to a blank check, anything he wanted he got. He said with Trump they went line by line and would deny money going out the door. I think this time Trump will be worse for those people. That’s why the deep state is so panicked. Trump has so much to do, I hope he’s successful. I fear for him and our country.
I agree with you, James, about the need to honor & respect one another. I think that lack of honor is what has been so deeply disturbing for me over the last 3+ years, since the deployment of these "vaccines" that have clearly harmed & killed so many people. Our federal health officials, who most certainly know the damage they have caused, continue, by & large, to promote & support their use. This is the epitome of disrespect as well as total disregard for the health & well-being of the population. Additionally, anything that would have been helpful & life-saving, was disparaged, suppressed, or disallowed, including vitamin-D, which would have gone a long way in helping to ameliorate more serious illness. Can you think of anything more egregious? In other words, the policies they implemented actively contributed to people's demise, either by commission or by omission. That to me is both unconscionable & unforgivable. There is also a serious lack of shame. As for myself, whenever I have done something that was less than honorable, I felt shame. If you do not feel any sense of shame, there will never be any course correction. It will always be more of the same. This is what we have come to expect from our government, our federal health officials in particular. How sad is that....
It is very sad Debra. They have created this environment of distrust throughout our country and the world. Dishonoring the people, which seems to be the theme of this administration I pray comes to an end on January 20th. From a man’s perspective at least for me, providing for my family also includes protecting them, first and foremost.
Also well said. I also found this most disturbing from not just this admin but also how easily the propaganda worked on so many (like during the Holocaust).
Thank you so much for this grouping of Sunday funnies. The moving to Canada piece was great! "And when you see posts by anti-gun liberals screaming for a Revolution!" That hadn't occurred to me until now. :))) But best of all was the prayer for the farmer that you left us with. I will send that out with love to both Allies and previous friends. Perhaps we can all unite this Thanksgiving in honor of the people who work each day to put food on our table. Thank you Robert and Jill.
Not to detract from these really funny cartoons/clips (love the one about eating noses), but is anyone else having a problem with some of Trump's cabinet picks? I am especially concerned with his choice for Surgeon General, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, who heavily promoted the covid "vaccines", masking, lockdowns, and censorship. Also, Dr. Makary who also supported the "vaccines" for adults & masking. Keep in mind, that Johns Hopkins is where Event 201 took place - the tabletop exercise that immediately preceded covid. Dr. Makary is a health policy expert at the school of medicine there. This association makes me uncomfortable. Previously, I had a high regard for his assessment of what ails the medical-industrial complex having read his book, "Unaccountable" several years ago. I also question Trump's choice of Dr. Oz as to the best of my understanding, he was also in favor of the covid "vaccines", as well as all vaccines, & is pro trans surgeries. If I am mistaken about any of this, I would welcome any corrections. Not sure who is advising Trump on these choices, but I am beginning to think there is a hidden agenda.
Everyone in my family except my over educated son, all Republicans, all Conservatives, all voted 3 times for Trump ran to get their Covid vaxes. My husband and I chose to take the wait and see route and decided we’d not vax. So, during the 2021-2022 period we were shut out from being able to discuss the pros and cons of the jabs by darn near everyone, every platform, so I’m not surprised so many people believed in the CDC, NHI and government’s billions of dollars spent on advertising propaganda. My family members now realize they trusted “the science” and will never ever allow themselves to be shamed into taking experimental jabs again. It’s possible these picks by Trump have changed their minds too.
“Almost 50 percent of Federal employees have not returned to the office since Covid”- my crystal ball can see a mass exodus coming in 2025 due to Doge and the Chevron decision. Hallelujah!
I know in this touchy-feely lookame age the new wave of millennials who are now running marketing and advertising agencies are clueless about fundamental rules of commerce. I am speaking from experience in working as a photo stylist for a catalog production agency. The first rule is know your customer base. The second rule is offer good product and service. The third rule is offer your product for a competitive price. And there's the bottomline. Feelings do not matter more than sales and the numbers on the spread sheets. What I do not understand is the executives not knowing this. Is this the Peter Principal in action - those who rise to their level of incompetence? In the end, the numbers matter. A reality Bud Light discovered.
I learned in business to find a need and fill it was a very important part of success. I guess Jag-U-Are found the need for weirdos and trans individuals to buy a neutered jaguar.
I don't think those in charge of decision making have a clue how small the trans demographic is, which means they have no idea about numbers at all. It's optics and emotion now. We have a family friend (of our grands) who is early 30s and her degree was in film making so she ended up with an advertising agency. As she was learning the ends and outs about ad making she often asked me questions about slight of hand photo styling. Recently she attended a big conference for ad makers in New York. She described the ads that were up for awards. I told her that us old folks don't understand ads that you have no idea what the product is and she laughed and said that the trend is more about the designer/writers creativity than selling product.
I still miss the Matthew McConaughey commercials for Lincoln! I'm a senior lady, and that one made me want to go out and buy a Lincoln!! Ellen Degeneres did a spoof of one, riding in the back seat with McConaughey driving the Lincoln. Hilarious! Alas, I'll have to stick with my 2006 pickup truck!! Happy!
I worked in ad sales for a very large cable TV outfit for 20 years from 1985 to 2005. I used the creative side of my brain to increase awareness of their business’s strengths and their need to bring more people to do business with them like the people who were already their best customers. I also played on the main decision maker's ego as well. Back in those days we were about increasing the bottom line for a business, not turning off their base. With this horrid Jag ad will likely hit a snag.
January 20th can't come soon enough! Not that I'm not overjoyed about Thanksgiving, my son's visit followed by Christmas trees and decor, crazy shopping for things the adult kids could probably buy for themselves, baking??? (or sneaking in some bakery fare) wrapping up company year end, Christmas cards, holiday parties ... I'm exhausted... Where's the laundry basket...
My favorite funny of the day is “ If you didn’t cheat last time you would only have 2 months of Trump left” I belly laughed. The liberals have gone absolutely out of their minds. The Ellen funny is so creepy yet true. The Move to Canada funny is hilarious. Thanks for the laughs. We are on vacation in Rome. We get on a cruise ship to the Mediterranean on Tuesday. I have enjoyed the pasta and gelato. But yesterday I ate something that gave me food poisoning and I have been so sick. My son in laws brother lives here in Rome so my daughter and son in law went to lunch at his brother’s apartment. My husband stayed back with me. My son in law’s brother told him that Italy is a great place to visit but not live here. The transportation system is not reliable. It is hard to get where you need to go. My daughter and her husband had a hard time getting back to the Airbnb where we are staying. I have to say out of all the countries I have traveled to it is always good to come home to the great USA. We have been having a great time seeing the Vatican, my favorite is the Sistine Chapel and the Michelangelo statue the “Pieta”. We went to the Coliseum and the Forum. It is fascinating to think that they are thousands of years old. In America everything is new except for the pueblos of the Native Americans. Australia is relatively new as well. We are headed to Pompeii tomorrow ( hopefully I’m feeling better).
I do love my country. It is always good to get home. Have a great day!
Hi Dr. Malone, I'm curious what you're thinking about Trump's "MAHA" picks. They've been jarring, and are throwing a lot of us into a tailspin about why Trump is not opening his eyes to truth about the COVID pseudo-vaccine. I thought I'd share some insights for an idea about a path forward for Trump, MAHA, and our nation, in case anyone here finds them helpful.
1. Trump's picks appear to be in line with his current belief that COVID vaccines "saved hundreds of millions of lives," as per his Nov. 22 statement announcing his pick of Dr. Janette Nesheiwat for Surgeon General.
2. In 2020, Trump championed a bioweapon-based vaccine that we now know is responsible for untold suffering and death, but with him leaving office around the time of the rollout, he really could not have known about it or taken action.
3. Out of office, he doubled down and considered Operation Warp Speed a prime achievement.
4. The internal resistance he must be facing to open his eyes to the dangers of this pseudo-vaccine must be extraordinary. Yet his current, largely nauseating "MAHA" picks show he MUST open his eyes for health policy to be based on truth and minimize further vaccine harm.
5. What do you think the success would be of a message, spearheaded by you and other MAHA Avengers :D, that basically says:
"President Trump, we understand how horrific it must be to even start to contemplate that the vaccines you championed have not saved hundreds of millions of lives, they've instead harmed millions of lives. But we want to let you know that we understand you could not have known about harmful they were while you were in office. Heck, I'm the inventor of the mRNA COVID vaccine platform, and I didn't know they were harmful at first either. I actually got the vaccines AFTER you left office. So if I didn't know while you were in office, no one can blame you for not knowing either.
But after I was injured from the COVID vaccines, I realized that the safeguards decision-makers should be able to assume are in place were not in place.
And it prompted me to completely flip my stance on these: from personally using them, to vociferously warning against them.
Your key MAHA health advisors know they are incredibly harmful, and yet you aren't seeing it. It must be because you love the American people so much, you cannot contemplate having any position that would unknowingly bring us harm.
You face a Herculean task to open your eyes to the truth about vaccine harm. One that only the most courageous among us in the world could possibly succeed at. But Americans know your courage. We saw it the day God saved you from the bullet meant to bring you down. And they are sending me a message to pass on to you: 'We love you. We support you. We pray for you. And we need one of the most courageous heroes in the world to summon all his courage and open his eyes once and for all to the truth that is clear to see: the COVID vaccines are bad news, and they must be stopped. The undisclosed DNA contamination alone shows us that.'
The path forward requires two commitments: One from you and one from the American people. Your commitment to us is that you will prioritize amassing the incredible courage it will take to consider the truth: that these vaccines are indeed dangerous. And America's commitment to you must be that we understand that what we are asking of you, to open your eyes to the truth, can only succeed to the extent that we surround you with love and understanding. So we call on all Americans to do our part and pray for you and surround you with love, and we call on you to amass the courage we need you to have to protect us from vaccines in the same manner you protect us from tyranny."
The truth about the vaccines is so easy to see, and Trump is surrounded by the MAHA experts who can easily show it to him. The fact that he doubled down just a few days ago with his official statement that they saved millions of lives points to a colossal blind spot. There must be some kind of psychological principle in play that makes him, to date, so impervious to the truth about them. That's where this message comes from. It must be exceedingly painful to realize the truth when you're at his level, and his brain may be shielding him from that pain.
Yes, but beyond that, to admit a mistake that has such devastating consequences on those you care about, simultaneously while you persevere through assassination attempts and lawfare that has the goal of humiliating you, bankrupting you, and imprisoning you behind cold steel bars for the rest of your life...It takes almost inconceivable strength to face that.
To the extent Trump has "faults" that make it hard for him to see vaccine dangers, those same "faults" gave our entire world a second chance to save ourselves from the crushing boot of tyranny on our throat. I'm praying for him.
The level of inner strength it would take for Trump to wake up to this reminds me of someone ready to sell their $100 million dollar hotel, and a realtor telling them hidden mold has been found, the hotel is worthless, and will make people sick. There is a tremendous temptation to go along with the other realtor who says, "That wasn't mold, it was just dirt. But don't worry, I painted over it, found a buyer, and everything is okay.
This awakening to the truth of vaccine harm would, in his mind, turn one of his lifetime's greatest achievements, into one of his worst mistakes. That's a very tough pill to swallow.
Sunday Funnies. Memes of wisdom. Wonderful comments from good folks whose intellect I admire. Aah, Dr Malone. You know how to start my Sunday off with a song in my heart!
Somdebody fixed the Jaguar ad: https://x.com/Marcus_Byrne/status/1859931383831081188
Excellent!
The thing about Jags is they were always a maintenance nightmare. Was given a ride in one of the first E-series imported here and the owner had the tailpipe(s) wired to the chasis. Was not a happy owner. Their engines basically designed for racing and hated stop and go driving...needed frequent tune ups
Yup they only seemed to work on the James Bond movies.
Um, that was the Aston Martin DB-5, first used in Goldfinger. Which is to say, another not very practical, but sexy looking, British sports car.
Saw a new one a few months ago. Look nothing like Bonds anymore
Oh, but they were lovely. Won a Jaguar for a long weekend in a charity auction. Drove the back roads from Washington State to British Columbia, enjoyed every minute. Returned to the dealer at the end of the trip and still have moments of regret about that. Not every joy in life has to be "practical".
Beautiful lines, crappy engines.
The E Class was beautful standing still and a complete joy to drive. I still wish I had one - and could afford it!
They new how to tan cowhides into the finest leather seating and door panels.
But the Italians always did it one leap better. I drove a 2018 Maserati convert 2 seater with twin turbo 660 hp with paddle shifters and 6000 rpm rev limiters.
But the interior was all wrapped in rich dark choco leather with stitching that would make a Mexican boot maker weep with envy. UNREAL use of fine leather.
Impossible to drive it as a concerned motorist! So I didn't!!! VROOOOOM......
Lucky you! I have no memories of riding in a Maserati or a fine leather interior. Yes, let's hear it for VROOOOM!
Of all the things that a proud owner could ever enjoy is the craftsmanship of the finest auto cockpit money can buy. It need not even have to leave the garage. Just sit in splendor and smell the excellence. PS Its a ROCKETSHIP!

Here's the end of that story: traded it in on a diesel Mercedes sedan. I needed reliable more than I needed sporty. I've been driving Mercedes ever since, I'm on my 5th? Handsome, comfortable, conservative gas guzzler, safe, and paid for. It handles well, for a medium-sized sedan (E350). The glory Mercedes was a 1998 S500, a V12. On mountain roads it handled better than the Alfa (when I could overcome caution and fear). I quickly came to appreciate the MPG meter, it could suck gas at 70 MPH.
I actually preferred the looks of the 130 series. Had that old timey roadster look nailed
I went looking for a pic of a 130. What I found was a XK 130. I know hardly anything about the models. Speaking of roadster look, what about the TR3? A co-worker had one maybe 60 years ago, when we were a bit younger. Somehow I think of that car having a roadster look.
It's so much fun these days seeing one of those cars on the streets near me. Glad they are still runnng and well-kept and . . . appreciated.
One time bro-in-law and hi school friend teamed up and bought a TR3 and raced it. They had a ball
That way....you "always" had an excuse for having greasy hands.
Yup....I been racing the hell out of er.
Thanks for the smile!
It was the LUCAS electric wiring /harnesses / gauges /spark controlled distributors!

I’m always amazed how “right here” I learn so much. I’m very grateful for the Malones, all of your great hard work, and all of you that constantly give me different perspectives, make me think and learn, thank you.

Mark Twain said “When I was 14, my father was so dumb, I could hardly stand to be around him, but when I got to be 21, I was amazed at how much the man had learned”. We should not honor our parents with just words but with how we treat them.
One thing I am sure of, you will never change a dishonorable situation by adding more dishonor. That will always make matters worse. Honoring someone lifts them. You should honor people the way you would want them to be.
I can’t tell you how much respect I have for women. For centuries women have worked and fought for their position in this world. In a general sense, you will never gain honor, and should not gain that honor, by dishonoring women, plain and simple. You will never receive what you are not willing to give, and if you don’t give honor you won’t have honor. The present dishonor shown to women today saddens me. It is a sign of a sickness spread in our society. The key to a breakthrough that we pray for, is to honor the people and women that God has put in our lives in a greater way.
The only way I see so many of these problems in our world today being resolved, is for people and government to return to honoring and respecting the people, and their God given freedoms, free thoughts, privacies and liberties, anything short of that is surely done with the intent to divide us.

Well, as much as I appreciate the Friday and Sunday blessings, my main takeaway the past few months is that i need a larger screen and smaller thumbs. 😉 😂 💰 Fortunately, perhaps, my iPhone Tennis (XS) is EOL’d so in only 10, 11 months my wish will come true.
Now, as for more, or any, respect from the gummint, do mean from those we elect to manage and thems that are employed to run the gummint? Then I’m with you, BUT gov’t in/of/by itself cannot do respect as it is an artificial entity. To get to the respect I agree we need/should have will require limiting the size of gov’t by enacting term limits, returning the Senate to the States, eliminating the civil servants from exercising legislative like ability (force the Legislature to BE a legislature) and limiting the size of the civil service and the length of time one works for/in civil service - the idea being that at some point, sooner than later, everyone/anyone in any facet of government will have to return to and live amongst the people
I actually remember when civil servants earned less for the same work than on the outside. Now I believe earn 30% more. Look for that union label!
When I was a gov ee (a good while ago) I used to reflect on how unfair it seemed that we were being paid so much more than the private sectot.The PS was where real work was happening.
Back in the deep dark dim recesses of what I humorously call my memory, don’t remember if it was a governmental history class or a law school class, I do remember that the civil service classification was a compromise: in exchange for some employment protections they settled for lower wages than in the private sector and no unionization. Well, we can see how that faired: most of the top income counties in USofA surround DC and gummint unions are the only unions that are really growing.
I shouldn’t, but I do have a bit of a conflict in this: dad went to work for the gummint right after he completed his Ph.D program, starting as a post doc, and kept climbing the GS ladder right to end. The thing that bugs me is I’m not sure he would have had as successful a career doing what he did in the area he was in the private sector - 🤷♀️. What further bugs me is that even when the private sector shrinks the gummint sector continues to grow. The gummint produces nothing (well, essentially nothing), the private sector is the engine but we allow the GS to act as a governor on the PS - as a result when we should be having the greatest growth in the modern era due to the transformative power of current tech we’re practically idling. We have massive transfer of wealth from the productive sector to unproductive lay-abouts, invaders, etc., but also to the government sector. The amount of friction involved in this fiscal flow is so great if it obeyed the laws of physics/thermodynamics we would’a reached self-combustion a decade or more ago.
SR Miller, I don’t think I’ve said this before but I am hoping and looking forward to shrinkage! (of government) When I look at people like Merrick Garland, Tony Blinken, James Sullivan, and the rest of these characters, too many to list, I see them all sleeping on their feathered beds, stuffing their faces will filets and lobsta’s and sending innocent people to prison, law fare, and now sending our kids off to war, so they can get more wealthy. You can work for a company that helps make a gear or a computer chip a cone for a missile or a company that makes nasal swabs and machines to test for Covid, and you all got fithy rich off the suffering of others. Sure you were just making the pieces, doing what you were told, watching your account grow while others struggled. Well I hope struggling people that actually produce the things everyday people need and want will see an uptick in their bank accounts. It’s funny when I talk to people that have profited greatly off the pandemic and the wars they’re all upset and worried about Trump being president. They wanted Harris to continue their income stream. I have a neighbor that lobbied congress for money to get everything the army gets, he’s said from a bullet to a Blackhawk helicopter to Abraham tanks, he was a lieutenant colonel. When Biden got in he said things went back to normal. It got back to a blank check, anything he wanted he got. He said with Trump they went line by line and would deny money going out the door. I think this time Trump will be worse for those people. That’s why the deep state is so panicked. Trump has so much to do, I hope he’s successful. I fear for him and our country.
I agree with you, James, about the need to honor & respect one another. I think that lack of honor is what has been so deeply disturbing for me over the last 3+ years, since the deployment of these "vaccines" that have clearly harmed & killed so many people. Our federal health officials, who most certainly know the damage they have caused, continue, by & large, to promote & support their use. This is the epitome of disrespect as well as total disregard for the health & well-being of the population. Additionally, anything that would have been helpful & life-saving, was disparaged, suppressed, or disallowed, including vitamin-D, which would have gone a long way in helping to ameliorate more serious illness. Can you think of anything more egregious? In other words, the policies they implemented actively contributed to people's demise, either by commission or by omission. That to me is both unconscionable & unforgivable. There is also a serious lack of shame. As for myself, whenever I have done something that was less than honorable, I felt shame. If you do not feel any sense of shame, there will never be any course correction. It will always be more of the same. This is what we have come to expect from our government, our federal health officials in particular. How sad is that....
It is very sad Debra. They have created this environment of distrust throughout our country and the world. Dishonoring the people, which seems to be the theme of this administration I pray comes to an end on January 20th. From a man’s perspective at least for me, providing for my family also includes protecting them, first and foremost.
Also well said. I also found this most disturbing from not just this admin but also how easily the propaganda worked on so many (like during the Holocaust).
Perfectly said James! Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁🦃
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Jennifer!! Hopefully as time goes we’ll have even more reasons to be thankful.
Wise words and well said. Thank you James!
Thank you Cheryl B.!!
Great selection ! that Canada clip was hilarious.
The...you'd only have 2 months of Trump left...classic example of shadenfreude?
Thank you so much for this grouping of Sunday funnies. The moving to Canada piece was great! "And when you see posts by anti-gun liberals screaming for a Revolution!" That hadn't occurred to me until now. :))) But best of all was the prayer for the farmer that you left us with. I will send that out with love to both Allies and previous friends. Perhaps we can all unite this Thanksgiving in honor of the people who work each day to put food on our table. Thank you Robert and Jill.
Not to detract from these really funny cartoons/clips (love the one about eating noses), but is anyone else having a problem with some of Trump's cabinet picks? I am especially concerned with his choice for Surgeon General, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, who heavily promoted the covid "vaccines", masking, lockdowns, and censorship. Also, Dr. Makary who also supported the "vaccines" for adults & masking. Keep in mind, that Johns Hopkins is where Event 201 took place - the tabletop exercise that immediately preceded covid. Dr. Makary is a health policy expert at the school of medicine there. This association makes me uncomfortable. Previously, I had a high regard for his assessment of what ails the medical-industrial complex having read his book, "Unaccountable" several years ago. I also question Trump's choice of Dr. Oz as to the best of my understanding, he was also in favor of the covid "vaccines", as well as all vaccines, & is pro trans surgeries. If I am mistaken about any of this, I would welcome any corrections. Not sure who is advising Trump on these choices, but I am beginning to think there is a hidden agenda.
Thank you, I absolutely share the exact same concerns! And why haven't I seen RFK Jr anywhere for a few days?
Everyone in my family except my over educated son, all Republicans, all Conservatives, all voted 3 times for Trump ran to get their Covid vaxes. My husband and I chose to take the wait and see route and decided we’d not vax. So, during the 2021-2022 period we were shut out from being able to discuss the pros and cons of the jabs by darn near everyone, every platform, so I’m not surprised so many people believed in the CDC, NHI and government’s billions of dollars spent on advertising propaganda. My family members now realize they trusted “the science” and will never ever allow themselves to be shamed into taking experimental jabs again. It’s possible these picks by Trump have changed their minds too.
That last meme should read that Kamala Harris is the Democrat's choice for 2028 to lose against JD Vance.
If that’s what they want let them have her. It’s hard to believe
“Almost 50 percent of Federal employees have not returned to the office since Covid”- my crystal ball can see a mass exodus coming in 2025 due to Doge and the Chevron decision. Hallelujah!
What happens if they show up at the office?
Do they remember how to find them?
It’s going to fun to see what happens.
Here’s what will happen:
https://x.com/iam_smx/status/1861589664617918616?s=46&t=pR-sjSmam4ukhVAUpZ8agQ
Who knows? Many will retire or be crybabies that trying to get to the office is too hard. We shall see what happens.
Is the office still there?
Who remembers when the media was in melt down because Trump did some mean tweets to the North Korean president? OMG he's going to start a nuclear war!
And now NATO tells Zelensky to shoot US and UK missiles at Russia in the final days of their US and Ukraine puppet regimes.
right, where is the MSM's cries of anguish, quaking with fears, begging for salvation from meanie Joe?!
They will just wait their chance for a Trump faux pas.
I'm cautiously optimistic about our win in November.
There is just too much time for the parasites to entrench themselves deep in the new administration.
I guess it takes time to heal from PTSD.
It’s looking like Trump’s biggest obstacle is going to be the entrenched old boy network of rino in the senate. They absolutely hate him
He has always said that!!!!
Nope. . . I believe your fears are 100% right on target.
The trenches were being built on Nov6.
Hopefully, Trumpie's cabinet will roll up with some John Deere track hoes.
I know in this touchy-feely lookame age the new wave of millennials who are now running marketing and advertising agencies are clueless about fundamental rules of commerce. I am speaking from experience in working as a photo stylist for a catalog production agency. The first rule is know your customer base. The second rule is offer good product and service. The third rule is offer your product for a competitive price. And there's the bottomline. Feelings do not matter more than sales and the numbers on the spread sheets. What I do not understand is the executives not knowing this. Is this the Peter Principal in action - those who rise to their level of incompetence? In the end, the numbers matter. A reality Bud Light discovered.
I learned in business to find a need and fill it was a very important part of success. I guess Jag-U-Are found the need for weirdos and trans individuals to buy a neutered jaguar.
I don't think those in charge of decision making have a clue how small the trans demographic is, which means they have no idea about numbers at all. It's optics and emotion now. We have a family friend (of our grands) who is early 30s and her degree was in film making so she ended up with an advertising agency. As she was learning the ends and outs about ad making she often asked me questions about slight of hand photo styling. Recently she attended a big conference for ad makers in New York. She described the ads that were up for awards. I told her that us old folks don't understand ads that you have no idea what the product is and she laughed and said that the trend is more about the designer/writers creativity than selling product.
I still miss the Matthew McConaughey commercials for Lincoln! I'm a senior lady, and that one made me want to go out and buy a Lincoln!! Ellen Degeneres did a spoof of one, riding in the back seat with McConaughey driving the Lincoln. Hilarious! Alas, I'll have to stick with my 2006 pickup truck!! Happy!
I worked in ad sales for a very large cable TV outfit for 20 years from 1985 to 2005. I used the creative side of my brain to increase awareness of their business’s strengths and their need to bring more people to do business with them like the people who were already their best customers. I also played on the main decision maker's ego as well. Back in those days we were about increasing the bottom line for a business, not turning off their base. With this horrid Jag ad will likely hit a snag.
January 20th can't come soon enough! Not that I'm not overjoyed about Thanksgiving, my son's visit followed by Christmas trees and decor, crazy shopping for things the adult kids could probably buy for themselves, baking??? (or sneaking in some bakery fare) wrapping up company year end, Christmas cards, holiday parties ... I'm exhausted... Where's the laundry basket...
Jesus is the Reason for the Season!
I hear ya!
My favorite funny of the day is “ If you didn’t cheat last time you would only have 2 months of Trump left” I belly laughed. The liberals have gone absolutely out of their minds. The Ellen funny is so creepy yet true. The Move to Canada funny is hilarious. Thanks for the laughs. We are on vacation in Rome. We get on a cruise ship to the Mediterranean on Tuesday. I have enjoyed the pasta and gelato. But yesterday I ate something that gave me food poisoning and I have been so sick. My son in laws brother lives here in Rome so my daughter and son in law went to lunch at his brother’s apartment. My husband stayed back with me. My son in law’s brother told him that Italy is a great place to visit but not live here. The transportation system is not reliable. It is hard to get where you need to go. My daughter and her husband had a hard time getting back to the Airbnb where we are staying. I have to say out of all the countries I have traveled to it is always good to come home to the great USA. We have been having a great time seeing the Vatican, my favorite is the Sistine Chapel and the Michelangelo statue the “Pieta”. We went to the Coliseum and the Forum. It is fascinating to think that they are thousands of years old. In America everything is new except for the pueblos of the Native Americans. Australia is relatively new as well. We are headed to Pompeii tomorrow ( hopefully I’m feeling better).
I do love my country. It is always good to get home. Have a great day!
Hi Dr. Malone, I'm curious what you're thinking about Trump's "MAHA" picks. They've been jarring, and are throwing a lot of us into a tailspin about why Trump is not opening his eyes to truth about the COVID pseudo-vaccine. I thought I'd share some insights for an idea about a path forward for Trump, MAHA, and our nation, in case anyone here finds them helpful.
1. Trump's picks appear to be in line with his current belief that COVID vaccines "saved hundreds of millions of lives," as per his Nov. 22 statement announcing his pick of Dr. Janette Nesheiwat for Surgeon General.
2. In 2020, Trump championed a bioweapon-based vaccine that we now know is responsible for untold suffering and death, but with him leaving office around the time of the rollout, he really could not have known about it or taken action.
3. Out of office, he doubled down and considered Operation Warp Speed a prime achievement.
4. The internal resistance he must be facing to open his eyes to the dangers of this pseudo-vaccine must be extraordinary. Yet his current, largely nauseating "MAHA" picks show he MUST open his eyes for health policy to be based on truth and minimize further vaccine harm.
5. What do you think the success would be of a message, spearheaded by you and other MAHA Avengers :D, that basically says:
"President Trump, we understand how horrific it must be to even start to contemplate that the vaccines you championed have not saved hundreds of millions of lives, they've instead harmed millions of lives. But we want to let you know that we understand you could not have known about harmful they were while you were in office. Heck, I'm the inventor of the mRNA COVID vaccine platform, and I didn't know they were harmful at first either. I actually got the vaccines AFTER you left office. So if I didn't know while you were in office, no one can blame you for not knowing either.
But after I was injured from the COVID vaccines, I realized that the safeguards decision-makers should be able to assume are in place were not in place.
And it prompted me to completely flip my stance on these: from personally using them, to vociferously warning against them.
Your key MAHA health advisors know they are incredibly harmful, and yet you aren't seeing it. It must be because you love the American people so much, you cannot contemplate having any position that would unknowingly bring us harm.
You face a Herculean task to open your eyes to the truth about vaccine harm. One that only the most courageous among us in the world could possibly succeed at. But Americans know your courage. We saw it the day God saved you from the bullet meant to bring you down. And they are sending me a message to pass on to you: 'We love you. We support you. We pray for you. And we need one of the most courageous heroes in the world to summon all his courage and open his eyes once and for all to the truth that is clear to see: the COVID vaccines are bad news, and they must be stopped. The undisclosed DNA contamination alone shows us that.'
The path forward requires two commitments: One from you and one from the American people. Your commitment to us is that you will prioritize amassing the incredible courage it will take to consider the truth: that these vaccines are indeed dangerous. And America's commitment to you must be that we understand that what we are asking of you, to open your eyes to the truth, can only succeed to the extent that we surround you with love and understanding. So we call on all Americans to do our part and pray for you and surround you with love, and we call on you to amass the courage we need you to have to protect us from vaccines in the same manner you protect us from tyranny."
Or...if he is so fond of r.f.k.jr. ....does he pay no attention to his advice on the jab or is jr. living up to my expectations?
The truth about the vaccines is so easy to see, and Trump is surrounded by the MAHA experts who can easily show it to him. The fact that he doubled down just a few days ago with his official statement that they saved millions of lives points to a colossal blind spot. There must be some kind of psychological principle in play that makes him, to date, so impervious to the truth about them. That's where this message comes from. It must be exceedingly painful to realize the truth when you're at his level, and his brain may be shielding him from that pain.
Called egotism. Very difficult to ever admit a mistake, particularly one of this magnitude
Yes, but beyond that, to admit a mistake that has such devastating consequences on those you care about, simultaneously while you persevere through assassination attempts and lawfare that has the goal of humiliating you, bankrupting you, and imprisoning you behind cold steel bars for the rest of your life...It takes almost inconceivable strength to face that.
To the extent Trump has "faults" that make it hard for him to see vaccine dangers, those same "faults" gave our entire world a second chance to save ourselves from the crushing boot of tyranny on our throat. I'm praying for him.
The level of inner strength it would take for Trump to wake up to this reminds me of someone ready to sell their $100 million dollar hotel, and a realtor telling them hidden mold has been found, the hotel is worthless, and will make people sick. There is a tremendous temptation to go along with the other realtor who says, "That wasn't mold, it was just dirt. But don't worry, I painted over it, found a buyer, and everything is okay.
This awakening to the truth of vaccine harm would, in his mind, turn one of his lifetime's greatest achievements, into one of his worst mistakes. That's a very tough pill to swallow.
Sunday Funnies. Memes of wisdom. Wonderful comments from good folks whose intellect I admire. Aah, Dr Malone. You know how to start my Sunday off with a song in my heart!
JAG-you are their pronouns!
My pronouns are Trump/Won! I have had a lot of fun stating my pronouns to woke mental invalids.
Those are THE BEST 👌 PRONOUNS!!
