To the Beaufort County Public, as Hood mentioned, I did miss that specific meeting "due to illness;" however, I am now strong again; not as much in body, as I am in spirit.

With total hip replacement surgery, the body must follow as it will, and as it can.

One thing is definitely for sure going forward, I will no longer be standing at county commissioner meetings because I cannot bear to sit. That was just one of my maladies fixed by this very necessary and major reconstructive surgery.

Even though my body is continually on the mend; at this point, I already feel 5 years younger in body, and a good decade younger in spirit. I can walk, I can stand, and I can sit, and, moreover, I can better think.

One would be mistaken to believe that HIV research and cure would be as important for Leftists as it is proven to be for Conservatives.

While I applaud Oklahoma's simple message, one that the standard American patriot can simply understand impactfully, I also understand exactly what the author of this post, Frederick M. Hess, is projecting here: It may be a long time, or never again when we will get this opportunity to correct our broken public system of education, so take the time and good measure to correct it perfectly right, and now before the entrenched Leftists destroy it forever.

Thank-you Babylon Bee for aiding Democratic Socialist Federal Judges with suggestions for their taking an active role in legislating from their collective, and rather pathetic benches.

They need to spend more on the state police to help arrest and deport the illegal aliens.

ONe of the huge costs to Americans of these parasite illegal aliens being in our country is the cost of them mooching our health care. Sometimes like this it is paid for by taxpayers but they also just show up at emergency rooms and demand free care, the cost of which gets added to the bills of paying patients and our health insurance companies, driving up our health insurance premiums. These deadbeats need to be sent home.

Florida passed a law that hospitals had to determine the immigration status and record it for any patients who showed up at the ER without insurance. That caused a lot of illegal aliens to quit going. North Carolina needs to do the same.

Yes, liberal state officials who approve federal Medicaid funds for illegal aliens are conspiring to break federal law. They should be arrested, prosecuted, and jailed for Medicaid fraud.

Not "green madness". It is "super stupid". Show us the science.

With this sicko Democrat in jail and thus not able to show up in the legislature to vote, Republicans ought to now be able to override Stein's veto of the anti-DEI bill.

Americans support deportation of all illegal aliens, but it is even higher when it comes to illegal aliens who have committed crimes in this country, where support in polls is near 80%. That is why they are the first group getting deported. Weirdly, the Democrats even want the US to allow CRIMINAL illegal aliens to remain in our country where they will keep committing crimes against citizens. It is unfortunate that we are not able to deport these stupid Democrats, too.

Two Issues here that would cause some concern for me if I was a Watauga County resident that cared about self-governance: 1. Districts made up of demonstrably smaller populations; 2. Watauga is predominately a Leftist county, and we all well know, the Left has a history of understanding incredibly that "The means justifies the ends."

Fake data and rigged computer models are endemic in the climate alarmist spiel.

That huge LA wildfire is not the only one that has been set deliberately by a climate alarmist. We also need to remember that an illegal alien was caught trying to start a parallel fire while the main one was still burning.
