@REX I wholeheartedly agree, and to think the swamp thought of him as just a hayseed farmer from CA. If anyone deserves a Presidential medal is Devin Nunes.

@ThomasWic @Baline Thomas you are so right. My younger 56 y.o. sister who is a high school art teacher of over 20 years quit her job after Trump was elected and moved to Zacatecas, MX for about 8 months. She had lived and worked in Presidio, TX for almost all of her 20 year career. She even married a Mexican so she could stay there legally. But it didn’t take long before she hightailed it out of there because of abuse, etc. Now teaching in TX again. She LOVES Narco music.

@ThomasWic @Baline While in Presidio, she developed the same humorous attitude towards people who were tortured in MX when they crossed the cartels. Specifically loved telling the story of a local TX deputy who had double crossed the cartel so they caught him, beat him, tortured him and drug him through the streets in broad daylight in Ojinaga for all the people to see. Drug him behind a speeding car up and down the main streets until he was dead and displayed what was left of him.

@ThomasWic @Baline And people flocked to see his remains. In her opinion...she would laugh and say, “Don’t mess with the cartel!” Said the deputy was a nice guy! SMDH...I taught there for one year and left.

@ThomasWic @Baline Which brings to mind an atrocity that my great-grandfather, Texas Ranger Bob Miller and his fellow officers and sheriffs committed in the 1920s. They captured a Mexican man (don’t know if he was legal or illegal or a Texan) who had shot and killed a local sheriff. They tracked them and a gun battle ensued which resulted in the Rangers throwing dynamite into the rail car where they were hiding, blowing them up and killing them.

@ThomasWic @Baline Most of the Anglo teachers in Presidio who think it’s funny are rabid liberal Trump haters who favor socialism. My sister was a huge Bernie Sanders fan. She disowned me on election night in 2016. Says I am part of a cult now and racist. Umm, okay. She has texted me since then when she decided to move to MX. I did my best to talk her out of it. She says she LIVES life! Says I only exist. She’s an artist. ‘Nuff sed.

@ThomasWic @Baline I also love MX and the Mexican culture. I taught on the border in Harlingen, TX and loved it! The main thing I miss from down there is the Conjunto music which is very popular there. I miss dancing the Cumbia and going to the American Legion Hall in Harlingen and listening to some of the best Conjunto bands in the area! It was funny in a way. The AMERICAN Legion and very little English spoken there on a Friday night, but I loved it!!

@ThomasWic @Baline Oh my goodness! I now REALLY miss South Texas Conjunto music! I still own a dab of real estate down there...a plot of land right next to my husband at the cemetery in San Benito. Think they’d care if I camped out there? Lol.. Naw, I still have friends in San Benito. Happy, hardworking and stellar people down there! Know how I became a good dancer? My Special Ed students taught me! On Fridays, we’d sing, I’d strum my guitar, but we’d always end w/ Conjunto music!!

@Debradelai @luvmycountry1 May he Rest In Peace. I remember at first, I thought he was the good Brain. I think he was both. Very nice and welcoming here on SQV. 56, so young, but from reading about him he truly had a life well lived. My condolences to his family and friends.

I hope the Republicans in the Senate stand strong and stop this “unserious” IMO criminal impeachment nonsense. Senator Ron Johnson gives me hope.https://youtu.be/TtVQWhh2rLs

@Debradelai @luvmycountry1 In memory of The Good Brian, a good man with a good brain. How can you miss a man you never met? But, I do. I have sympathy for his widow. My husband died suddenly at 50, nine years ago. He, too, was a very good man. I lost a stellar brother at 39. Maybe it’s true, only the good die young.In memory of The Good Brianhttps://youtu.be/LByuLvnfGYQ

Well, Christmas has come and gone and I missed it. The Flu came on Christmas Eve and hit me like a train that I didn’t see coming. Still recuperating, but I do see the light at the end of the tunnel. I still remembered to thank the Lord for His Son, Jesus Christ. All is well that ends well. Hopefully, will be good as new tomorrow.

@Trickster I think that’s why America backs President Trump like no other. He’s an American man, plain and simple. A rare breed anymore.“Say what you mean, mean what you say.” Maybe the trend will catch on. Meanwhile, nice to know there are some like yourself still keeping it real. No more mealy mouthed, pencil necked geeks turning themselves into a pretzel trying not to offend.I say, “Ahoy, mate! Offend away!!Just get the damn job done. And I’d say he is delivering on it all.

@Trickster My daddy was a hard man. Hardly ever saw him smile except for the one the funeral director put on his face because he’d never met him.But it just dawned on me, Daddy would not only have been smiling but laughing out loud in Trump’s America. Wherever he is, I hope he’s got a room with a view.
