  1. As an attendee, let’s pause for a moment and acknowledge the tremendous time and effort invested. This is the perfect opportunity for me to express my heartfelt appreciation to all the scarf cleaners for their extraordinary work. Your dedication and hard work do not go unnoticed. Your efforts contribute significantly to the guests’ experience, and we deeply appreciate your unwavering commitment. We recognize the long hours you put in, often without breaks, and the challenging tasks you face daily.

    1. “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 4:17

      “Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.” Matthew 5:38-39

      “And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.” Matthew 6:5-6

  2. I agree that they should keep the border crossing as low as possible. I wish someone would address the issue of veterans who served in the US military who have been deported because paperwork was never done or filed for them to become citizens. Some of which spent 20 years in the military and retired out. They cannot get the benefits do them because paperwork was not done while they were serving our country.

    1. @M so instead of offering a ration argument against her position which could possibly change her opinion, you accuse her of xenophobia. Nice.

  3. Damn the truth — full speed ahead. Speaking of shameless opportunism, let’s introduce the pride of Haskell County, Rick Perry

  4. that’s an issue of mental health at 3:33… and what follows makes clear that he’s a good example of this “gun deaths are caused by guns, no guns= no gund deaths” So any menthal healthy person understands that the main problem is the gun. Any menthal ill person will talk about anything else to avoid the real problem. Rick perry is a good example of this kind of menthal illness…. he almost looks normal, till he start to talk.

    1. lol 😂 we have half of all small arms in the world. If guns were the real problem we’d see a lot more gun deaths.

    2. @thankyougreen Indeed the U.S. has the 32nd-highest rate of deaths from gun violence in the world: 3.96 deaths per 100,000 people in 2019. That was more than eight times as high as the rate in Canada, which had 0.47 deaths per 100,000 people — and nearly 100 times higher than in the United Kingdom, which had 0.04 deaths per 100,000.
      Among the 40 largest countries in the world in 2019, the United States ranked fourth after Colombia, Brazil and Mexico in terms of having the highest rate of deaths due to firearms. From 2014 to 2020, gun-related deaths in the U.S. rose 35%, according to nonpartisan data center USAFacts.

      So we do see a lot more gun deaths than in any other civilized country…
      But because of political reasons or mental illness people do not see (or want to) this..

    3. @thankyougreenwe do see a lot more gun deaths than the rest of the developed word. Like… most of the gun deaths.

  5. Is he aware that all other countries have mental health issues and no senseless killings.

    1. Since ancient times people have had mental issues, only recently have they had ready access to high vol magazine, self loading high velocity round weaponry. Before that it was difficult for a crazy on a bad day to take out a full classroom.

  6. I definitely subscribe to this man’s position on drugs, a republican that has his head on straight.

  7. It’s not a 50% drop in crossings it’s a 50% drop in encounters. Per the administration and Mayorkas

    1. Well, it is difficult to count the people one does not encounter. Somehow I doubt that the number who escape encounters have increased by the amount that encounters have decreased.

  8. Mental health is a problem in this country but what is making it worse is the level of intolerance and hatred for people that we are demonizing. A national attitude of acceptance and of good will towards others and a sense of humor would go a long way towards addressing this problem.

    1. 7.5 yrs ago he wanted to get rid of the Dept of Energy and didn’t even know that it oversees our nuclear weapons. So weird that he became the secretary of a dept that he once wanted to eliminate.

    2. lets hope this time around hes not in a position to close anything except a door …to his jail cell

  9. So he let Rick Perry say that his texts from his phone was in his text just like Marjorie Taylor Greene got up on the witness stand and testify under oath that her texts from her texts from her phone was not hers. It was somebody else’s a bunch of BS and they allow them to talk like that.

  10. Remember when Rick Perry said in a late 2011 GOP Presidential debate how he wanted to abolish three federal agencies? He could only remember two!!!

    1. To be fair, a list of 3 is a very long list. I mean, once you pass 2 you’re really pushing it. lmao

    2. To be fair…Gov Perry had a very painful back problem at the time and his pain meds interfered with his ability in that debate. He was a good governor in Texas. But if he supports Trump…i will change my mind about him.

    3. One that slipped his tiny brain was the Dept of Energy. The one he would one day lead, despite not having a clue what it does.

  11. And remember jim” you might have a traumatic brain injury” down the road somewhere😂

  12. The shortsighted guy responsible for so many moving to Texas without thinking of the consequences of the change in political landscape. Thanks a lot, Perry!
