A Bit of Wisdom from the 1757 Poor Richard's Almanack
Philadelphia, PA...Poor Richard's Almanack was published by Benjamin Franklin, under the pen name of "Poor Richard" or "Richard Saunders". Annual versions were published from 1733 to 1758 & outsold everything but the bible. For two generations before the Revolutionary war he helped create our unique heritage and identity. In this crazy time where the news headlines read like satire we thought it might be refreshing to head down history lane a bit.
God helps them that help themselves.
Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.
Early to bed and early to rise,
Makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.
Plough deep while sluggards sleep.
Never leave that till to-morrow which you can do to-day.
Three removes are as bad as a fire.
Little strokes fell great oaks.
A little neglect may breed mischief: for want of a nail the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the rider was lost.
He that goes a borrowing goes a sorrowing.
A man may, if he knows not how to save as he gets, keep his nose to the grindstone.
Vessels large may venture more, But little boats should keep near shore.
It is hard for an empty bag to stand upright.
Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.

So while Biden was on a two week vacation, then was asked while on vacation about the tragic wildfire in Maui, as in the worst wildfire in modern times he said " No Comment" which he really was raked over the coals about.
Now as global news coverage focused on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s apparent assassination of mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, who led a mutiny against the Kremlin two months ago, Biden was asked about this. Well guess what? BEING ITS A WEDNESDAY, HUMP DAY, MIDDLE OF THE WORK WEEK. UNLESS YOURE AN 80 YEAR OLD DEMENTIA PATIENT THAT THE DUMBEST MOTHERFUKING VOTERS EVER IN AMERICA VOTED FOR...BIDEN IS ON VACATION AGAIN!!!! THIS PIECE OF 💩 CAN'T EVEN WORK TWO FUKING DAYS IN A ROW??? NO FUKING WONDER OUR COUNTRY IS SO FUKED UP WHEN THIS DIAPER WEARING, MENTAL MIDGET WITH DEMENTIA AND HIS ENTIRE FAMILY ARE ALCOHOLICS AND DRUG ADDICTS CANT WORK MORE THEN TWO DAYS STRAIGHT, AND HE'S *bleep*ING SPENT!!! EVERY SINGLE THING THE DUMBACRAPS UNDER BIDEN HAS GONE SOUTH, FROM KILLING OUR MILTARY PERSONNEL, ABANDONING AMERICAN CITIZENS, OUR BORDER BEING OVERRUN, CHINA OWNING OUR PRESIDENT, WORST INFLATION IN OVER 40 YEARS, VIOLENT CRIMES AND MURDER RECORDS, THE MOST GUN DEATHS UNDER BIDEN INCLUDING MASS SHOOTINGS, HIGHEST GAS PRICES UNDER BIDEN BECAUSE HE DECLARED ON HIS SECOND DAY THAT HE WAS GOING TO PUT THEM OUT OF BUSINESS. THE ONLY PEOPLE MAKING A KILLINGS ARE THE BIDEN FAMILY MEMBERS BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T DECLARED AROUND $30,000,000 DOLLARS TO THE IRS, ITS ALL TAX FREE ILLEGAL LAUNDERED MONEY. ADD IN UNDER BIDEN NEVER BEFORE HIGHEST AMOUNT OF AMERICAN CITIZENS DEAD FROM DRUG OVER DOSES, EACH YEAR HIGHER THEN THE RECORD SET BY OPEN BORDER JOE THEN THE PREVIOUS YEAR.
WAY TO GO JOE, YOU MUST REALLY HATE AMERICA!!!
WHILE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GET MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ILLEGALLY BY YOUR FAMILY USING YOUR POSITION, AMERICAN FAMILIES ARE GOING IN DEBT BECAUSE OF YOUR FAILURES AS OUR PRESIDENT....OH I'M SORRY AS OUR DICTATOR, THANKS TO A BUNCH OF IDIOTS WHO VOTED IN THE MOST CORRUPT, SENILE, OLDEST, WEAKEST, POS IN THE WH WE HAVE EVER HAD

Take a deep breath, unclench your jaw, maybe turn off the tv and go for a little walk.

The Historic Presidency of Joe Biden. Has been a godsend for the American people. Coming out of the Pandemic. Which was completely botched. And grossly mishandled. By Donald J Trump and Mike Pence. When a Republican Presidential candidate says. They would support Donald J Trump. If he were to become the Republican nominee. That’s saying you would support a Insurrectionist and a Repeat Rapist.

Cult collapse coming soon.
Tomorrow Donald Trump becomes the first former president to have his mugshot and fingerprints taken for felony, criminal behavior.
Very, very impressive.
