    1)  This is an insurrection on America by the elites.
    2)  Insurrectionists were given cellphones, transportation to all parts of the country and cash/debit cards.  
    3)  Upon command (utilizing communication via cellphones), the elites will turn loose the insurrectionists to overthrow the government.
    4)  Foreign enemies will swoop in and take sides with the majority party.
    5)  Hillary, Barack, Susan, Hunter, et al will be rewarded in some fashion for their part in the takeover.

    Relax, it's all part of a Military PLAN, I have been TRYING to tell everyone this for over 3 years now.
    We do have everything!! .... and I MEAN EVERYTHING!!!
    This planned exercise right now is actually waking people up. This invasion at the border is really working and the AWAKENING is very near. >>> All illegals will have to return to their home country when the new Quantum financial system with Nesara/Gesara begins. If they don't, they will NOT be apart of the transfer of money given to everyone WORLDWIDE during this process. 
    Have you ever seen so MUCH SECURITY for a so called former President? Think about it???? .... If there wasn't a plan, Trump wouldn't be ALIVE today.

    Have you noticed lately that the TIDE is TURNING!! (Scotus 9-0 in latest win for TRUMP) Next will be the overturning of 2020 election.  >> My opinion that Trump will be back in office way before this election.

    What's going to happen when the Government no longer has the means to take care of the millions of illegals? Where are they going to get food, housing, etc., etc.?
    The illegals are going to take it from the US citizens. So get ready. This is another reason for the Second Amendment.

    Basset3 reacted to Pompeii in What is Pulmonary Fibrosis?   
    What is Pulmonary Fibrosis?
    (March 4, 2024, DuBois, Pennsylvania) – The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation estimates that there are more than 200,000 people living with pulmonary fibrosis in the U.S., with about 50,000 new cases added each year. In Pennsylvania, approximately one in 200 adults over age 70 will develop pulmonary fibrosis, which is why it is important to know what it is and how it is diagnosed.
     
    What is pulmonary fibrosis?
    “Pulmonary fibrosis is a term that describes more than 200 different lung diseases characterized by progressive inflammation and scarring of the lungs,” said Sundeep Bansal, MD, Medical Director of The Lung Center at Penn Highlands Healthcare. “Over time, this scarring can cause the walls of the lung tissue and airways to be thicker and stiffer, which can inhibit air flow and lead to shortness of breath, particularly while walking or performing other physical activities.”
     
    What causes pulmonary fibrosis?
    The most common type of pulmonary fibrosis is idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which means that there is no discernable cause. However, pulmonary fibrosis can also be caused by smoking, long-term exposure to certain toxins, radiation to the chest, certain medications and other conditions. It also can be caused by interstitial lung disease, a category of diseases that inflame or scar the lungs.
     
    What are the symptoms?
    The symptoms of pulmonary fibrosis, including IPF, may include:
    Shortness of breath Dry, hacking cough Weakness Fatigue Chest discomfort  
    IPF symptoms generally develop over time. If you have new or sudden shortness of breath, particularly with chest pain, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
     
    How is pulmonary fibrosis diagnosed?
    The first and most important step to pulmonary fibrosis treatment is an accurate diagnosis. A timely diagnosis is essential to developing a treatment plan that can improve quality of life and extend lifespan.
     
    “To diagnose pulmonary fibrosis, your provider will go over your family and medical history, discuss your symptoms and perform a minor physical evaluation,” said Dr. Bansal. “Depending on where you seek care, other tests may be used as well. For instance, in 2018 Penn Highlands DuBois became one of the first centers in the country to begin using the Envisia Genomic Classifier genetic test for diagnosing pulmonary fibrosis without lung surgery.”
     
    The Envisia classifier is used to detect genomic patterns that are a hallmark of IPF. The test is performed by using a thin, flexible tube that goes down the throat and into the lungs to obtain a small sample of tissue.
     
    How is pulmonary fibrosis treated?
    There is no cure for pulmonary fibrosis. Scars on the lungs cannot be repaired, but certain medications and therapies can help lessen the severity of symptoms and improve quality of life.
    Medication: Prescription drugs, called antifibrotic therapy, may help slow the progression of the disease. Your provider will choose the right medication for you based on the type and stage of your pulmonary fibrosis. Oxygen therapy: A treatment that provides you with supplemental oxygen, which may be needed as the disease progresses and your blood oxygen levels decrease. Oxygen therapy can help you stay active and enjoy life. There are different types of devices that can give you oxygen, such as tanks of liquid or gas oxygen that you breathe in through a nose tube or mask. Pulmonary rehabilitation: Pulmonary rehab includes education and exercise to increase awareness about your lungs and your disease. You will learn how to exercise with less shortness of breath. It may help reduce the number of times you need to see your provider or go to the hospital. Pulmonary rehab can also help you feel less anxious and more confident about how much physical activity you can safely participate in and how to live and travel safely with a chronic lung condition.  
    In addition, leading a healthy lifestyle, including eating a nutritious diet and engaging in regular exercise, can help you stay active longer. It is always important to talk to your healthcare provider before beginning an exercise program.
     
    Penn Highlands Lung Center provides comprehensive pulmonary fibrosis treatment, as well as diagnosis and treatment for every type of pulmonary condition, including asthma, COPD and pneumonia. Penn Highlands offers excellent care throughout Pennsylvania. To learn more, visit www.phhealthcare.org/pulmonary-care.

    Basset3 reacted to Pappy in Multiple Sclerosis organization fired 90 year old volunteer   
    Here is something you wont see on the main stream media.
    Sick and twisted people who work for the MS organization at this Chapter treating a woman who has volunteered for them for 60 years like this because she doesn't know what pronouns were.
    Wokeness has gone to far people and those that agree with this crap about pronouns are the problem also. They can apologize all they want I wont give money to an organization like this.
    Will they deny funds to organizations that do not use pronouns or to individuals who do not use pronouns etc. I am sorry but Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in any place just means they will make sure you are excluded if you do not conform to these Nazi rules?
    Yes people the left are modern day Nazis.
    Now this may not be in all chapters of the MS Society but I am betting it is because they were forced to do it by headquarters.
    I am sorry to say this but I am guessing their donations will start to dwindle because of the nazi left.
    They are a good organization overall but this is just insane

    MS Society U-turns and issues groveling apology to fired 90-year-old volunteer who they forced to step down after she asked 'what pronouns meant'
    Fran Itkoff received an apology from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society The 90-year-old volunteer was forced to step down after she asked about pronouns, 'breaching' diversity and inclusion policies NMSS admitted it 'fell short' but claimed it acted with best intentions  
    The National MS Society has apologized to a 90-year-old volunteer they forced to step down for 'breaching its diversity and inclusion policy' after she asked what pronouns were.
    Fran Itkoff had served the non-profit for multiple sclerosis patients for 60 years, with her late husband running the Long Beach Lakewood chapter prior to his death.
    She was left stunned when her bosses fired her on January 19 following an exchange with a colleague who asked her to use her pronouns in email signatures.
     
    The non-profit doubled down on its decision, saying it acted with the 'best of intentions' despite a furious backlash where supporters threatened to withhold their funds.
    But, on Wednesday, the organization announced it was rolling back on its stance, admitting it 'fell short' and offering a groveling apology to Itkoff. 
    'Recently, we asked Fran to step down from her role as a group leader because of statements made that we viewed as not aligning with our recently implemented diversity, equity and inclusion policy,' the statement read.
    'We realize now that we made a mistake, and we should have had more conversations with Fran before making this decision.'
    However, the non-profit repeated its defense of acting in 'best intentions' and blamed a lack of 'protocol' for the decision. 
    'We should have spent more time with Fran to help her understand why, as an organization, we are dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive movement where everyone has equitable access to the care, connections, and support they need to live their best lives,' the statement added.
    'We apologized to Fran directly and reached out to her to find a way to continue to work together.'
    It's unclear if Itkoff will rejoin the organization. 
    Itkoff was let go via email after a representative at the company asked her began to start using pronouns on her email signature, but she did not know what it meant, according to an interview she conducted with Libs of TikTok.
    'I had seen it on a couple of letters that had come in after the person's name. But I didn't know what it meant,' the senior said.
    'Because it sounds like you are labeling for females, not males, if you are just putting in she/her.'
    A few days later, she received an email accusing her of violating the MS Society's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion guidelines.
    'Unfortunately, based on the situation, we have made the difficult decision to have you step down from your volunteer position, effective immediately,' the email reads.
    Itkoff said: 'I was completely shocked. I can't believe... I had to read it a couple of times to see if I'm getting what she said.'
    Elle Hamilton, Itkoff's daughter, said at the time: 'To me it's ironic, because they are saying they are inclusive, but they are excluding a 90-year-old disabled woman who has volunteered for 60 years.'
    'And literally the sole purpose was to help the MS patients and find a cure. That's literally all she does,' Hamilton added.
