@GuntherEagleman @SKMorefield I live in Florida, does “Uniparty” mean firing Soros DAs? Does it mean protecting children from lying leftist teachers? Does it mean using strict law enforcement to protect the borders? Does it mean building $22bb budget surplus? Generic derogatory phrases mean nothing.

I miss how simple my community used to be, we celebrated young people who delivered the daily news.

[Three Year Letterman @3YearLetterman]

Ten things my Uncle Gary can do that Biden and Trump cannot do:

1. A keg stand
2. Operate a motor vehicle (albeit without a license)
3. Win a fist fight
4. Run
5. Withstand getting pepper sprayed
6. Withstand getting tased
7. Remember the Pledge of Allegiance
8. A proper cannonball
9. Evade the police
10. Make sense

What is the "on the payroll for decades"? He declined his pension and benefits when he left the House, after ONLY 6 years. He slept in his office; even other House members said he wanted nothing to do with the lobbyist parties and went home every weekend. He returned to FL to run for Governor. He's in the process of finishing his second term. So, there are six years in DC, and there will be a total of 8 as Gov. 🙄 The problem with non "DeSimps" is you throw out blatant accusations and have literally nothing to back it up.

Why would DeSantis do this?

[Christina Pushaw 🐊 🇺🇸 @ChristinaPushaw]

🐊University of Florida President Dr. Ben Sasse:

I have four simple messages.

First, to the Floridians who pay our bills: The University of Florida will always uphold speech and assembly rights, and we will also always follow the law. Too much of higher education has been captured by a lot of nonsense over the course of the last weeks, and that won't happen at the University of Florida.

To the law enforcement officers who have kept things peaceful: Thank you. Your professionalism has been amazing. Over the course of the last two weeks in particular, you have been long suffering, giving protestors the right to exercise their free speech rights, but also the opportunity to come into compliance with our time, place & manner restrictions. Our goal has not been to arrest. It has been to help people get into compliance with the law. And what you have done in the face of being spit on, being shouted at with profanities, has been amazing. The professionalism of our law enforcement is a model for lots and lots of people across the country.

To the protestors: You have heard us say this again and again. You have a constitutional right to protest, and we will protect that. But anyone who crosses the line with prohibited actions will face the consequences. This is a big university where not everyone is going to agree. We have 86,000 souls on this campus, and we will treat each other with respect.

Unlike many institutions across the country, I'm incredibly proud that over the course of our 21 commencements over the last six days, we were able to celebrate our students and celebrate their families, which is the purpose of the commencement time. Too often in our time and place, we give the most voice to the loudest and angriest people. The University of Florida is not filled with angry people, and it's been wonderful to see a lot of moms have tears streaming down their cheeks as we were able to hold commencements over the course of the last week. And that's because of the fortitude and professionalism in particular of our law enforcement.

And finally, to our Jewish students: UF is proud to be home to the most Jewish students anywhere in the country. This is the most Jewish university in the country, and it is great to be a Jewish gator. I want all of our students to feel safe. But more than the subjective feeling, I want our students to BE safe. And that is true today, and we're glad to have you, and we're excited to celebrate a big future together.

Borrowed this from Facebook...

When the Titanic sank, it carried millionaire John Jacob Astor IV. The money in his bank account was enough to build 30 Titanics. However, faced with mortal danger, he chose what he deemed morally right and gave up his spot in a lifeboat to save two frightened children.

Millionaire Isidor Straus, co-owner of the largest American chain of department stores, "Macy's," who was also on the Titanic, said:

"I will never enter a lifeboat before other men."

His wife, Ida Straus, also refused to board the lifeboat, giving her spot to her newly appointed maid, Ellen Bird. She decided to spend her last moments of life with her husband.

These wealthy individuals preferred to part with their wealth, and even their lives, rather than compromise their moral principles. Their choice in favor of moral values ​​highlighted the brilliance of human civilization and human nature.

AMEN!

Morning Reflection:

Today, let us remember: nothing is beyond God's reach, and everything we do should be infused with love.

Let's honor each other above ourselves, reflecting God's power and grace in every action, embodying the love He commands us to share.

[Frank Sonottrue 🐊 @JJIlahee]

@here4theshtshow @Vantilian113572 I experienced “Truth” as a literal atmosphere you breathed, cannot describe the depth of feeling that came with it.

[Dr. Bruce L Hartman @Bruce_L_Hartman]

"And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you."

Romans 8:11

[Dr. Bruce L Hartman @Bruce_L_Hartman]

"I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die."

(John 11:25-26)

[Dr. Bruce L Hartman @Bruce_L_Hartman]

"Through faith in Jesus, we find eternal life today and the hope of resurrection tomorrow."

Good morning Everyone☀️ 

It’s time for another Wednesday morning conservative post! Today we’ll take a look at a great actor and conservative. 

John Wayne 1907-1979
Wayne was born in Iowa, his birth name was Marion Morrison. His father was a pharmacist and he was raised middle class. In his early years he was given the nickname Duke and used the name in his early film work. 

He would attend USC in 1925 and play football. During the summer months he worked as a prop man for Fox film Corp. He became friends with John Ford, a director and he helped John get some small film roles. 

The first role he would play as John Wayne came in 1930 “The Big Trail”. He would spend the next 8 years acting in low budget films and played mainly cowboys or soldiers. 

He wasn’t eligible for the draft in WWII, due to age and a football injury. So he spent those years entertaining the troops overseas and making popular action films, playing service men over coming great odds. He had several popular leading roles from 1942-1945. By the end of the war John Wayne was a superstar. 

After the war he starred in several successful films focusing on the Old West and Cavalry service. His popular films during this time were, Fort Apache(48), She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (49), Rio Grande(50), The Searchers (56). 

He was nominated for an academy award for his role in Sands of Iwo Jima in 1949. He was awarded The Oscar for his role as a US Marshall in True Grit in 1969. Wayne’s final film was in 1976 he played an aging gunfighter dying of cancer in The Shootist. 

He was vocal about his conservative beliefs and aware that he had become an iconic symbol of what it meant to be an American. He spoke openly about his hate of communism, love of liberty and traditional values. He was known for being politically incorrect and progressives in Hollywood criticized him often, but were also able to overlook his political views due to his wit and charm. 

In 1980, the year after his death President Carter awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award, for being a true American symbol of grit and determination. He praised John for leaving behind a film legacy full of adventure and heroics on behalf of fairness and justice (boy have times changed). 

John was married twice and had 7 children. He died of stomach cancer after beating lung cancer at the age of 72. 

Have a Great Day!

Still can't find the 2nd sock. 😡

[South Florida Trophy Wife™ 🦈🌴🦩🍹🦎 @Pickledfins]

Exactly - which is why I am not getting my undies bunched. We voted for the State House and Senate for this reason; to pass this kind of legislation and WE OUTNUMBER them.

@AConcernedPare2 Yes, any time our daughters showed an interest in an activity we followed through at their pace. New experiences, new faces, it was always good.

[Ron DeSantis @GovRonDeSantis]

I am proud to announce another year of toll savings for Floridians. With this additional $450 million, we have secured nearly $1 billion over a two-year period to return to Florida’s commuters.
