I have been working at my current job since August 2022. Well, since August 8, 2022, if you want to be precise.

That means in six months, I will celebrate my 2 year employment. Ever since I was a child, I have been told that I have to join a union, for my own sake. I have been wanting to join one, but I have always been putting it off for another day - mainly because I couldn't afford it and I didn't really need it when I wasn't working. My only permanent jobs has been three years in a supermarket, in an office in Scotland and where I work now. Three permanent jobs since 2007. Other times I worked had been through a temp agency, and even then I didn't know if I needed to join a union. So I didn't join one.

Now, with me working full time, and making enough, I can now afford to join a union. I joined the cheapest one I could find. It will set me back a whopping $83 a month. The first six months are free, however.

Now, I know that there has been a LOT of talk in the US about how unions are bad, but I see them as a good thing. They can help me if I somehow feel like my employer is treating me bad. If I get laid off unexpectedly, I can get unemployment funds for 2 years. More than enough time to allow me to find another job, if required. 2.254 million people in Denmark are members of a union. It's encouraged to be a member from the time you start your higher education. I just never joined one until last week - when I am almost 40..

But at least they'll help me if I, for some reason, get treated unfairly at work or if I get laid off out of nowhere

Is an EU sanction being discussed today because the EU has always been the aggressor punching the Bear when it can? Is it because the Putin interview doesn't fit the bullshit EU narrative which explains why nazis in Ukraine should be funded with my money?

And why is there an EU? What is NATO good for besides taking my money with no plans to repay me. What does it mean “ in the name of democracy.” How do I benefit sending my money to nato.

Back to EU sanctions:

I can’t wait for our information starved truth-seeking Americans to watch it!

"I understand the states controlling state elections and state positions. What we are talking about here is national candidates," Justice Clarence Thomas said regarding respondents' inability to provide examples of states kicking national candidates off the ballot."

for the audio go to :

Anyone here agree with the Liberal Coloradans? I sure don't I enjoy my freedoms and I don't want to see any government try and take them away. Government does not give us our rights. Instead, government is designed to protect them in the USA.

We are under attack and on our own. Our infrastructure won't handle another 100 million people expected here in the next couple of years (air water food transportation.) The world is screwed when we go down. Support your County Sheriffs and local LEO's (Law Enforcement Officers.) The U.S. Sheriffs want to do their jobs protecting us, even though our current Federal admin won't. Educate yourselves.

Also, Don't smoke cigars. they are bad for your health and suspected to turn you (men or women) in to a misogynist!

And Something like this hasn’t happened since WWII.

Does anyone want to admit they voted for this guy? That’s the question.

Sleepy Joe sure makes me feel more safe every time I hear him speak live or recorded.

There are people in this world who lack common sense. Many of them don't read instructions before operating machinery or doing things deemed dangerous/careless by other members of society.
I recall a story about a woman who bought a motor-home, gets on the highway, turns on cruise control. She gets up from the driver's seat to go back and make a cup of coffee and the vehicle runs off the road crashing and injuring the woman.
Obviously, she assumed cruise control was auto-pilot. Lady, it's a motor-home and not a Boeing 747.
I'm sure vehicle manufacturers have added warnings on the control and increased the owner's handbook warning.
Sometimes, their stupidity actually pays off. Take the case of the 79 year old woman who was negligent and spilled hot McDonalds coffee on her lap while in her car causing 3rd degree burns that required skin grafting and 2 years of medical treatment. Stupidly McDonalds didn't want to pay her $20,000 medical expenses and settle. The woman's attorney sued and got her millions.
After... you guessed it, all the McDonalds coffee cups and lids now have explicit warnings.
It happened again to an 85 year old woman who placed the cup in the car's drink holder, drove to an appointment and parked. She claims the lid wasn't put on correctly and ALL of the coffee spilled on her when she started to drink it. I do hope McDonalds had better lawyers for that case.


So the next time you decide to watch that bag of microwave popcorn puff up while cooking, Take my advice and stand back. You're done when the popping is nearly stopped... Otherwise being too close the door and some spurious radiation leaks out it could be your eyeballs that will puff up.
While on the subject of microwave radiation, NEVER try to dry your pet inside a microwave oven. The results would be alarming.

Trump appealed to the District Court of Washington DC to dismiss Jack Smith's criminal suit against him.

The appeal was based upon three arguments previously rejected by the trial judge Tanya Chutkan:

1. The proposed DC criminal trial constitutes double jeopardy because Trump wasn't successfully impeached for his involvement in the January 6th riot/insurrection;

2. The president has immunity for acts performed within the outer perimeter of the scope of his/her office;&

3. The president has aboslute immunity for any criminal act, or from any civil liabilty during his/her period of office.

(I think there may have been something about absolute presidential immunity forevermore, but that's so bonkers I can't get my head round the mere suggestion.)

The appellate court consisting of a panel of three judges (Republican appointee Judge Henderson and Democrat appointees Judges Pan and Childs) affirmed Judge Chutkan's ruling per curium (all three agreed) that there is no legal, or constitutional basis for dismissing the case on those grounds and that Trump's right to defense is the same as any other US citizen.

The District Court also ruled that Trump has until the 12th February to request a stay of the order pending appeal to the Supreme Court. If they don't hear from him by then, the trial is back on.

The 6 Year Old Little Palestinian girl who is trapped in a car that the Israelis shot up and killed her entire family
The Authorities talked with her for hours to keep her spirits up
In her dire situation....She is wounded and stuck in a car with her dead relatives all around her
It is freezing outside and she is terrified of the Dark
The Red Crescent sent 2 EMT men to find her with the Coordinance from the phone she is using to get to where she is
And now? the people of the Red Crescent have now lost contact with those 2 would be rescuers
It certainly looks as though they might have been killed by the Israeli Army because the Israelis shoot first and if you are still alive? They will then ask Questions
Something has to be done to try and stop the Brutal killing of the Children
May little Hind Amada be protected by God

It is my belief that this world would be better off
If the Children of the World were in charge The grownups really suck at the job
