Many of us thought that Robinson was going to develop into a great hope for the people. Then he got a little taste of power and money, and he received that Raleigh inoculation. Now he is falling right in line to "Go along to get along". Makes me unhappy but sometimes we have to face reality and make necessary adjustments. It looks like Folwell will be our better choice.

I would like to know from Mr. Rader how active the teacher union is in Beaufort County?

(commented on February 12th, 2025 @ 9:28 pm)
Did the voting community of Washington not vote in the members of both boards that you seem to have such an issue with? I seem to remember that the husband/wife members you are speaking of were just part of the ballot and they were reelected. If this was such an issue, should this have not been looked at prior to the election? I had been following the page for a while, but it seems that recently it is just targeted attacks at certain individuals.

(commented on January 22nd, 2025 @ 1:10 pm)
The opposition to building a new school with a $42 million state grant seems misguided to the growth of our community. While Beaufort County must contribute $10 million, the project is estimated to be under its $52 million budget. Other counties are moving forward with similar projects - Martin County is building a new high school and Washington County recently opened a K-12 school. Why should Beaufort County return this grant money and miss the opportunity to improve our infrastructure?
Having volunteered at Eastern Elementary, I've witnessed firsthand why replacement is necessary. I encourage those that oppose the building to spend a day reading to some of the children to experience the classrooms and the building for themselves. The concerns about cross-town busing are unfounded given the compact size of the city school district. Most Eastern Elementary students live nearby, and this commute is notably shorter than what high school students already manage with their extended schedules.
A more pressing concern is the suspicious timing of the four-acre property ownership change, which was close to the timing of the grant award. Why has that been discussed by the commissioners?

It has started, tone set. Look, listen, do, say, read, watch only what you're told. Starts w/words, ideas, make you feel like enemies surround but they can fix it. Just listen, and obey. Wuhan was shut, Doors, gates locked and welded. People in hazmat, desperately spraying to fight a new virus. Some men tested, they played a board game, others watched, during the short break. When noticed, they were put on screen, asking forgiveness for getting rest and enjoyment while others suffered. Clearly terrified, they knew they made huge social mistake. The 20 or so men, arrested and probably sent to prison or just shot, for not following the leader. People crying, trying to reach out windows as they became a prison. Food delivered, no escape. A girl climbed out window, 4th floor. Barefoot, nightgown, she did not expect emptiness,nothing but her. Words, books, music, so simple until it is not. Regaining Freedom, horribly hard. I used a word removed from book. Liberty needs People NOT Party.

(commented on February 27th, 2023 @ 5:20 pm)
Personally, any War is wrong, but keeping Ukraine Democratic is important for the safety of Europe and hence the US. For De Santos to declare Russia to be less hostile than China is perplexing. Has China mentioned sending Nukes our direction? Did they mention thinking about sending Missles into Ukraine during our Presidents stop? The money can be replaced, People/Countries, Democracy, Freedom, Liberty, those are not negotiable. NATO members, contribute according to their means, Thankfully Biden returned the US to partnership of the WHOLE, instead of standing alone, or thinking Dictators are Allies and Great Friends.

(commented on February 27th, 2023 @ 4:53 pm)
De Santos, giving all those raised, is ludicrous. Just the money spent to replace Dictionaries that have no offensive Words is huge, let alone the 54 math books banned for showing drawings of people working together because that reminds kids they woúld rather be out playing ball. WHEN THEY LOOK IN THE ONLY BOOK in the Library, for the mysterious word, Woke, it will not defile those young eyes. This State that spends the fortunes, or penny bank of the State Voters, so frivolously, does not seem to be leading the front on Logic or Financial acumen as the Tax Payers footing Disney's huge cost of Fire And Protection, because they did not bow to words or language changes, can attest. I hope commas are not on his radar, who knows, at this point. maybe they can get sent to a nice quiet island, where all the thousands of defunct textbooks, probably in someone's back r0om

I researched this about the cell phone on Google and they said no airplane casualties have ever happened because someone didn't put their phone in airplane mode. If this were true, there would be signs posted on every airplane with warning signs. This isn't true

Amazingly I think I have a few of her bowls when my SO tried to use the washing machine! It had sputtered and shook and I thought the thing was gonna fly apart. Definitely a warp zone had occurred. Clothes were gone, and replaced with a nice bowl, cast iron skillet and a new kitten. I named her Warp.

You can't put a time limit on God! I believe if you do that is not God speaking! We should allow the Holy Spirit to do what He do until He is finished! We always limiting God but want the full blessings He has for us! We make time for what we want to and it's sad that we try to limit the one who gives us life! What if He rushed giving us breath, rushed getting us safely from point a to point b, or what if He rushed His patience with you? If we are going to make time for anyone it should be Him!

I just had a 5 artery bypass surgery and I am recovering fine just a week out from surgery but I had my covid vaccine in 09/8 2021 last one on 10/8 2021 after the vaccine I lost nearly 90 lbs by 3/15/2022 and had fatty nots on my inter arm ultra sound checked to be called normal and at roughly same time frame had to have a mamagram done because my left side of my chest had grown to nearly 2 or 3 times the right side of my chest even though I was right handed and my left arm had popped out or had a rotary Culp tear out of my left side shoulder then I had recurring chest pains that lead to my heart bypass surgery a week ago and all these things have happened to me and in my life in the past 18 months after vaccine was taken by me in thoughts it may be a little help for my wife incase we did get covid but I beleive that the covid vaccine is more dangerous than any covid disease thats my humble opinion

I don't know what this pastor wrote and included in his Bio, so it's difficult for me to comment, but I can tell everyone that Twitter gives you a limited amount of space to write what you can write as far as your BIO.

Even their comments, you're limited to the number of words of the alphabet you can use. Just know I'm not defending him just trying to bring to light. You give more space for my comment than Twitter does.

God bless you all may you all find peace during this difficult time

You remember from animal farm, "All pigs are equal, but some are more equal than others". But don't worry. Will Rodgers said, "We have the best politicians money can buy." Maybe Voltaire said it best, "History is only the pattern of silken slippers descending the stairs to the thunder of hobnail boots climbing upward from below".

Wow, Finally a recollection that meshes with mine. Living in Atl at the time I knew I could go whenever I wanted so I didn't. I can only remember one concert I went to. It was for Jean Luc Ponty. Awesome show! The seats that I recall were church pews with cushions but without without legs so they were flat on the floor. You were so close to the artist! In one break I went for a bucket of beer and saw 2 members of Kansas playing pinball. One show you didn't mention was the Sex Pistols. Their first US appearance. I had a friend try to convince me to go with him but I wasn't a fan so missed that experience.

Back in 2000 when I was attached to the leading Asylum processing NGO at the time as Mentor and Editor, Denmark shocked many countries in Europe in its pivot from humanitarian to anti-asylum and anti-immigration values by the sitting Socialdemocratic government, It spouted right-wing racist policies that since has cast a shadow on the otherwise "liberal" birthmark it has tattooed on its forehead since Danish society became a paradise for workers and its labour unions. BTW, Denmark is a pluralist society where political parties sprout based in myriad ideologies and advocacies.22 years have passed where again the ruling Social Democrats are associated with Closed Borders (incl. for a while motivating would be asylum seekers or migrants with money that would help them establish businesses if they would only go back to their countries of origin. The current reality is that Denmark, Norden and the EU still needs migrant labour to provide childcare and servicing the elderly.

It is hilarious that in America, socialism as an "ism" has replaced good old "communism". Further, Americans do not distinguish between "democratic socialism" practised in much of Europe except for fascistoid Hungary under that deranged autocrat Mr. Urban who inspires Orange Hair (alias Donald Trump) and his supporters in outer Europe like Serbia. It is amazing that the richest country in the world does not have money to educate its population, nor house the millions of people living on the streets in their sleeping bags all over this so-called "Number One democratic and Christian (Jesus Chr. will turn in his grave early this year because the evidence will show Evangelical Americans are the least Christian in their ways) country in the world!

Totally agree at this late date that PRC/ Chairman XI's China has willfully developed the Wuhan Virus, and distributed it to the whole world,causing millions to die. The latest gimmick from this scourge nation is its spy balloons that have been spying all over the world; but specially USA which china considers as its top rival!

I saw with my own eyes how Chinese sweatshops in italy produce substandard fakes of Italy's high brand names and sell them as made in Italy; fake products: Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, etc.

Cheating Chinese, all asians know it because the Chinese throttle all business from the locals without any pang of conscience: because they are Godless.
