I’m confused! Since I stayed off X for a couple of days to work on my pasture fence a riff has opened between Elon Musk and President Trump? What is going on? If this is accurate; how are folks going to keep faith in the future of this Republic? Reason anyone?

Today we pay tribute to our fallen Paratroopers during the #AAW25 Memorial Ceremony, streaming on FB Live today at 11 a.m.

I once wore a uniform for a lot of years with fellow Infantry Paratroopers and Reconnaissance Brothers. I no longer wear the uniform but those of my Brothers who are still alive after several lethal combat deployments together; are the first thing I think of when I open my eyes! The Brothers who were KIA are the last thing I think of when I close my eyes! When I was medically retired due to severe hearing loss and metal in my neck and back; I was lost for a while! Then I ran into some fellow Veterans at my local Harley dealership while I was getting my Road King serviced! They led me back into the fold so to speak and elevated my spirits once again! Three years ago I was forced to take a leave of absence from the club for health reasons! The screws in my neck decided that they were done holding my C- spine together. The VA went another route and informed me that the vertebrae were too brittle to use screws again! I still hang out once in a while with the club and the fellowship is still strong! I know that one day I will close my eyes for good and will join my Brothers in Valhalla! But man do I miss wind therapy and riding shoulder to shoulder with my Patch Brothers! “Lo there do I see my Father! Lo there do I see my Mother! Lo there do I see my Brothers and my Sisters! Lo there do I see the line of my fallen Brothers back to the Revolutionary War! They call to me; they bid me come join them! In the Halls of Valhalla! Where the Brave may live FOREVER!”

Between 2004-2008 beekeepers in the U.S. experienced “colony collapse “! A total loss of their population of bees. California has no wild bees left because of their habit of killing the native pollinators through chemicals and spraying their almond trees with blossom thinners. Killing some of the blossoms so that they achieve larger almonds. It’s done with all the crops in California and other states where massive corporate farms are run! The farmers in California and other states are now dependent on huge apiaries to literally transport millions of bees to California and other places within two to three days to pollinate the crops! This is not sustainable in any way shape or form! On top of that disastrous plan; if the crops in the next area have already been pollinated by bees then the corporate farmers spray the bloom thinners and kill off a majority of the bees in the next field or corporate farm where the blossoms may just be starting to bloom! Back in the 1980’s the American bluebird was one heartbeat away from extinction. Backyard “birders” started putting out bluebird houses and slowly but surely the bluebird returned in strength and are very plentiful today. I believe that backyard beekeepers and family farms who add bees along with wild bee populations are going to be the ones who save the honeybee populations. Albert Einstein stated in the 40’s that if the bees are ever wiped out mankind will have 4 years of survival at the most! Now think about this…… all those chemicals that are sprayed constantly in California on the crops including crop trees. You breathed that when the wildfires burned down the crops and trees. That colony collapse in 2004-2008 which I mentioned in the beginning? What changed in the air that caused that catastrophe? Bees are one of the very first species that will immediately tell us that something is happening or has happened that is causing havoc on our ecosystem. If you have any room to place a beehive; I strongly encourage everyone to get one. Even if you don’t like honey or don’t want to worry about working with bees; you can still help your neighbor’s garden and flowers along with your own home. Bees pollinate up to five miles depending on how plentiful pollen is around their hive. No chemicals required! Just saying!!!! @VeteranFarmers

Bees are settling in their new homes

Beekeeping. The good Lord’s gift to us

Been raining here for a couple of days but the sun came out today and the farm is bustling with wildlife. Y’all have a great weekend

Video to help you relax . From my small farm

14 Quarts. Good day even though it was raining!

Well folks the bond stands strong between fellow Veterans. A fellow Paratrooper was driving through my AO from Florida and was kind enough to drop off 25 pounds of tomatoes 🍅! As I have yet to put in my plants; I was having tomato sandwich withdrawals! I do not purchase any from grocery stores because they are ripened by nitrogen and not the sun. Don’t have anything against them; but slicing and eating red cardboard isn’t my style. I put a few aside for sandwiches and am in the process of canning the rest. He wouldn’t take cash; so I set him up with 4 pounds of my smoked and cured bacon and pork loin. We were both happy with the trade. I hugged his neck and asked the good Lord for safe journey as he left to deliver his truckload to Minnesota. I love trading with folks especially food from our hands! By the way if you put up jars of food; I can’t recommend the new Ball Electric Water Bath Canner enough! No more hoping you don’t forget to keep an eye on the stove! Take care folks and stop by the farm sometime. You never know what you might walk away with!

We’re getting closer to All American Week 2025! Better book your reservations now so you don’t miss a thing as we celebrate the proud history and airborne future of the All American Division!

Holy crap. The timeline has become Pete and repeat! Same with the government. Look at the new boss; same as the old boss! Same old story. “We are going to do this, this, and this when we get into office” and yet even with the majority Republicans are to good of friends with the Democrats to do anything substantial to change anything! Every single one of them is guilty of letting their secret handshake bullshit and graft with each other negate any kind of motivation to make the right decisions regarding the future of this country. Here’s an idea. Don’t push any kind of agenda towards me personally. I’m done with both parties in this country. I didn’t serve to see outright corruption on both sides of the aisle! I am a conservative. I stand for liberty above all. In the days, weeks, and months ahead I am predicting that absolutely nothing will be done about the Epstein clients because they are both Democrats and Republicans and high elitist people who more than likely contributed to both parties! Look back at the most famous pictures available; and you will see that at one time or another they’re all mixed in together. Someone always has to sacrifice some part of their integrity or cross over a line at one point to become famous or rich! There are no true mentors or heroes to look up to anymore! No wonder a lot of the young generation feels lost. Every person they look up to has been proven to be a scumbag, rapist, pedophile, or worse! And so the only people that are left; are those who are willing to sacrifice their dignity by having sex with untold numbers of strangers! Not much to look forward too! No wonder…… If you wish to exit following me; please do! I’m done with both parties! Grifters all! The only person that appears to be genuine is Elon Musk! Pretty sure he only had a choice of two plates of bullshit! One with corn and one without! If what is being said is true about limited time for DOGE until end of May and Elon only being a limited employee until the same; then that point right there should tell you everything needed! Am I mistaken for reviewing the initial report that DOGE would be continuing through next year? If it is saving so much money for the country; then why would it be necessary to mysteriously change it suddenly to make the time frame considerably less? Who was it starting to hurt all of a sudden that certain people currently in power would rush to limit its impact? Did it get too close to certain of your Republican colleagues? Or was it going to start finding an organization similar to USAID that is funneling millions to Republicans? All of a sudden now its power is limited? If you’re convinced that Republicans don’t eat the same scraps from the big table of lobbyists that the Democrats do; then you’re absolutely kidding yourself! Ever wonder why neither side has outlawed lobbyists? Or is it that the lobbyists on the Republican side are more honest because they’re Republicans! In closing keep in mind that this country was founded by Liberty seeking Patriots. Not Republicans or Democrats. The Republican Party was created in 1854, Democratic Party in 1828! Before that there were limited attempts to establish different political parties, but all were unsuccessful. Basically it was folks telling the government to leave me and my family the fuck alone while we carve out a living where we desire to settle. Now we’re stuck with two parties who talk shit about the other party behind the microphone in front of any camera; and then go back to their cloakroom smoking areas and shake hands and blow each other! Wake the fuck up!

Well folks it’s getting harder to see in my small town. The forest fires at Table Rock along Hwy 11 have jumped a small lake and now are spreading even further towards Marietta, SC and surrounding areas. More evacuations have been ordered. My town is 7 miles from Marietta along Hwy 276. And the spring winds just kicked up again. Please keep folks in Northern Greenville County of South Carolina in your thoughts and prayers. Some teenagers are suspected of starting the fires based on what they watched on social media about L.A. County fire

Hey everyone. There was a female Veteran on X this morning asking for someone to talk to. Trying to link her up with someone who is adept in counseling but I can’t find the post. If anyone sees the post please repost on here so she can get some help! I believe she is a USAF Veteran

Okay well now something is going on with my account. I can’t see replies on anyone I follow. Maybe I followed to many accounts today.

Okay followed everyone back except for the “single “ ladies named Donald! Must be a common name in the bot community. Also realized that a serious number of people on here won the same Powerball game on the same day, and a lot of ladies putting same description on their profile as a dating app I presume! Nobody likes long walks on the beach. I walked through a lot of sand in my day with 75-90 lbs on my back. Not going to take a long walk on the beach! It’s too far away from refreshments! And it states clearly on my profile that I am married! Learn to read! I’m not looking! I caught my limit 36 years ago. My buck o’ five (weight) spouse has put up with my training, deployments, was a “geographical mother “ to the guys in my platoon, took care of literally everything while I was gone overseas, visited me in the hospitals after I was wounded, encouraged me in physical therapy by making fun of me, literally raised three kids on her own until 2009, and still loves me sometimes! Even with a Powerball win, model body, and daddy issues; you wouldn’t even be in the same league or country as my spouse!!! Stop trying! My buck o’ five spouse could take you on a bad day and still have time to make a cup of coffee and blow smoke in your face while watching you take your last breath! Anyway I followed back!

Hey everyone. Trying to follow everyone back but X keeps blinking and then I have to log back in every time. Will get to everyone through the day
