Thank you, Mr Lark.
God bless you, Rachel!
The search of the individual people in the car, no female officers was there and should have been
Thank you, Mr. Lark. Clear and concise. You are my favorite.
Someone call the authorities, please. Tommy Lark just murdered irony. You pass judgment on the deceased Pope while worshiping — as your so aptly described your dear deity — "the fat, old fool" with the orange tint who is trying to "con and browbeat underlings into going along with such heretical stupidity, or else oh-so pig-ignorant, failing to realize the rules of the very nation he hijacked." Well done, Tom. I needed a good laugh today.
L Cooper .....you are a blundering facist fool with no respect for 80 million citizens who asked our President to pursue these brilliant ideas for border security, cleaning up a financial mess created by the idiot Biden and securing a level and safe global trading field for the future of our country. Your opinions are pathetic and ludicrous. The best place for you is to find that hill to die on of socialistic, woke and failed agendas of the worthless party of donkeys you support.
Sincerest thanks, Barney! :)
You're certainly welcome. Pope Francis did expose himself as being "woke". I'm not Catholic but this position in the Church should take a neutral stance in my view. The "flock" in most religions is always smarter about matters than these leaders sometimes think. We know right from wrong and can usually make wise choices. Cardinal Sarah is a solid candidate.
I'm not sure you're clear on what being a fascist is, but thanks for proving my point, Barney. Maybe watch a little less fox news.
Left wing dem fools like yourself have no points to prove .....just look at yourself and your pathetic party and it's record over the past 20 years. You folks have done nothing constructive for this Nation other than mental breakdowns ....obumacare ruined our healthcare system while he and his wife instilled a damaging condition of major racial division. Of course, everything old idiot joe touched turned to crap so what in reality have you losers done for improvements other than obstruct. lie, destroy and distort. I guess those are considered accomplishments in your "how to" booklets. How I miss those first four Trump years until your party brought covid in ......no inflation, no wars, border getting secured, low energy prices......too bad you dems are so jealous and inept to enjoy those days. Fox news must live in your socialist brain like others ...I never watch it except for the daily market updates. Another brainless lefty (you) strikes out again .....at least my news sources tell the truth unlike your cnn, msdnc, ap, & nyt as shown by what America's opinion of them is. Move on lefty loser .......myself and millions more like me are laughing at you
Wow, Barney. I must have struck a nerve. I apologize. I don't know you and it's not my way — or my party's — to resort to name calling. Your party embraced that and has become the party of lies. Plus, again, you are proving my point (over and over again). Obamacare ruined the healthcare system and the Obamas instilled racial division? That's rich. Democrats brought in COVID? That's good. But trump will have a new healthcare plan in two weeks. I'm also curious where you get your "news" then. ... Anyway, I assume from your words that you're (let me guess): 65-plus white male, non-Christian — I assume non-Christian, because as a Christian, I know that's not the way to speak to people.
It's none of your business who or what I am and where are you coming up with this lie about "name-calling? You lefty wimps can't handle the facts is more like it. The name calling and hatred was started back in Nov, 2024 by YOUR side, right after your party's pathetic election showing or the "mandate" as I call it. You can "assume" all you want, that's all you people are good for, that along with chaos and confusion. Your side is a joke and DOA and has resorted to hiring protestors to spread their distorted and obstructionist messaging simply because "that's all you got". You just continue your farce communications and don't worry about me anymore because I've grown tired of listening to the vomit and vitriol spewing from your socialist mouth. You have reached the point of FOFA, are not good for America and have shown the locals one more time that you are truly the idiot that you are. Once more ......the world and me are laughing at how foolish you have become and the title of "LOSER" hangs proudly around your neck. Let me guess your profile .......young, undereducated, probably jobless, living with mom in the basement, multiple face piercing's, filthy greasy hair and has to be told to bathe, scared of females because you're brainwashed by all this gender confusion crap your side created and unable to transport yourself anywhere because you are too lazy to work and afford insurance .....I've hit this nail 100% on the head ....that's you and don't deny it
Whoa, man, take a breath before you burst something. ... Look, you keep proving my points. Everyone knows facts are optional (at best) in the eyes of the gop and your president. It's this sort of hate and short-sightedness that is ruining our country and it's easy to see why — but maybe Pope Trump can save all of you.
Keep babbling with your lies as you and your party continue to set records for and all of us normal folks who care about America will just keep laughing. That will be my standard response from now on ...I'm tired of f**king with you.
The resurrection of Jesus isn’t just a distant event in history. It’s a turning point for all of us. When Jesus rose from the grave, He made a way for everything broken to be restored—every sin, every wound, every ounce of despair. What looked like the end of the story on Friday was only the beginning of new life on Sunday. Romans 6:4 says, “Just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.” That “newness of life” isn’t something we have to earn. It’s something Jesus offers freely, even to the most wounded among us. That’s what we witness every week through the Mighty Oaks programs. Men and women arrive tired, burdened, or numb. They come from all walks of life—some with combat experience, others with personal trauma, all carrying hidden pain. But something happens when they encounter the truth of who Jesus is. Lives are restored. Marriages are healed. Purpose is rediscovered. Chains fall. That’s not because of a speaker or a curriculum. It’s because of Jesus. The same power that raised Him from the dead is still at work today.
