🤔Why do Southerners eat Black Eyed Peas and collard greens on New Year’s Day? The Southern tradition of eating black-eyed peas and collard greens on New Year's Day originated in the winter of 1864-1865. During that time, Union General William T. Sherman led invading troops on a destructive march through Georgia. The Union soldiers stole anything of value, plundering the land and setting fire to what they couldn't carry away. However, the fields of black-eyed peas were mostly left unharmed, as they were considered suitable only for animals. As a result, the humble yet nourishing meal of black-eyed peas and collard greens saved the lives of Southerners from mass starvation. Over time, black-eyed peas and collard greens became symbols of good luck and fortune for the new year. #Neverforget #confederate #bettersouth #southern #confederateflag #sonsofconfederateveterans #scv #civilwarmemory #oursouth #southerner #NewYear2026 #NewYear #southerntradition

Silver is blowing the stock market scam wide open. Inflation? More are waking up to this hidden tax. More folks demanding #EndTheFed. Welfare fraud exposed. Independent journalists are growing. Tax refusal is hitting normies now. 2026 is gonna be wild!

@Protestia Appalled at this.

@DefiantLs Why are school taxes so high if this is what we are producing?

@baptist_news If this company offered other AI books with Mr and Mrs Obama reading, I think that would please you.

Want your blood to boil? There are 193 recognized countries in the world and 177 of them receive US taxpayer money. 177 of 193. That’s 91.7% of the world. It’s not Congress’s money. It’s your money, my money, our kid’s money etc. Americans are being screwed. It must stop!

@DefiantLs I don't get this, but I am old and sometimes miss the point. Your posts are generally interesting, so I spent time rewatching this, hoping to figure it out. Never did. I am just getting too old to figure out some of these posts.

There’s a quiet debate that we’ve been having in rural America. It will never make the national news, and it won't affect most of the population, but it's leaving small towns looking for answers. • Immigration. • But not the kind you’re thinking about… ... stick with me. • See, we’re quick to talk about immigrants from other countries. • And truth be told, even when I don’t agree with the tone some folks take, I usually agree with the premise: If you’re going to come to America, learn the culture, understand the language, honor the heritage, respect the values, revere the flag, and become an American. • Its confusing to see people run from a broken nation just to demand America become the nation they ran from. • It hurts to see people wave a foreign flag that was worth leaving while taking advantage of the blessings found under this new one. • For generations, immigrants came here understanding the unspoken sacred rule: Becoming American meant letting something old die away so something greater could be born. • But here’s the undercurrent nobody wants to talk about… • Americans are doing the exact same thing to each other as you read this post. • Follow me. • Over the past number of years, there has been a mass migration, not from overseas, but from the big cities into the country. • People wanted space. Quiet. Kind neighbors. A place where the air felt cleaner, where the world felt slower. • And rural communities, generous as they always are, opened their arms wide. • These new immigrants moved into rural communities and talked about how much they loved the sound of driving on gravel roads, looking up into the sky and seeing stars, and how they enjoyed the feeling of soft soil under their feet. • But now? The murmurs are happening… • Now some of these same newcomers are annoyed …. • “The grocery store is too far.” “There’s nothing for the kids to do.” “We need more amenities, more activities, more, more, more.” • They left one world… then came here and started demanding the old world be rebuilt around them. • Tell me how that’s any different from an immigrant protesting America while waving the flag of the country he fled? • You moved here because it was different. You loved the charm. You loved the peace. You loved the simplicity. • But now that you live here, you have forgotten why you left "there". • You want a small town to behave like a big city while still pretending to be a small town? • Impossible. • So if you’re a transplant to a rural community, here’s the truth, spoken with love, and maybe a little annoyance: Learn the language of the land. Honor the history. Respect the sacrifices of the people who built it long before you arrived. And assimilate. • Growth is good when it’s wholesome. Everyone should be "pro wholesome growth". • But forced growth? • That’s how you kill the very spirit you came looking for. • Forced growth is how roots snaps instead of growing deeper. • So I encourage you, Breathe the country air. Embrace the slower pace. Appreciate the trade-offs. And let the community grow at the pace it was meant to. • Because if you liked the city life so much… … you should’ve stayed in the city.

@SandyEgoCali @williamwolfe I agree with Charlie. We can't refuse to work with moral sinners in the conservative movement. Jesus said divorce is adultery, but many Christians divorce annually. Must we shun them because of their sexual sin?

Who knows this song

@USATRUMPMAN1 All along the watchtower. Dylan. Listened to him a lot in college way back yonder in time.

@USATRUMPMAN1 The guy who ruined Crosby, Stills and Nash.

@grim_prime @AndrewRillera I didn't understand either until I figured out this is a bunch of naval gazing theologians. They deny that Jesus,who is God, took our sins upon Himself on the cross and God the Father poured his wrath on those sins. They are false teachers. Ignore their mental masturbation.

@USATRUMPMAN1 Fine, mighty fine meal. And neighbor.

@USATRUMPMAN1 Wondering how you manage to make ends meet.
