You’re so amazing ❤
What story
That’s pretty history insight 👍🏻
I just found out something interesting today that I never knew before. A great grandfather who fought in WW1 was first enlisted in the Canadian Armed Forces & then enlisted in the American Army once we entered the war. That’s pretty bizarre stuff to me. Somewhere along the way he broke his legs & got mustard gassed. I don’t know in what order or if simultaneously. I never knew I had any connections with Canada 🍁 🤷🏼. Maybe they’ll cut me a deal on the maple syrup 🥞?
& that’s the problem with trying to talk to the elderly sometimes 😆. Wrong Great Grampa, mustard gas was another. But the other who broke his legs also broke horses for the Canadian Army, he also aided in the tracking parties after Poncho Via for the American Army. Nobody knows the extent of his role, but he was supposedly a certified genius who a lot of people couldn’t stand to be around because they thought he was such an aszhole, including my Grandfather, 1of2 sons he abandoned to orphanage. My Grandmother couldn’t stand much of him either. Idk what to think about that because people can’t stand me sometimes &or I’m the one who can’t stand other people. Funny twist of fate he was the dark haired blue eyed man & I the blonde haired brown eyed man since many of they detests me for their fictions of supremacy by contrasting me a monkey for iris when I’d rip his head off for shear amusement at his matters for perverse mind toil & quantified copulation puzzy corralling. 😌
If only onions were transparent.?. They are friends, they are. 🧅👃🏼smell that culture 💩 Almost ripe for planting.?
ZAPATERO ES EL MEJOR PROFETA DE ESPAÑA LO ACIERTA TODO.
I met Lester, face to face, when I was briefly on “The Today Show” as an outdoor segment (2013 or 14, IIRC). It was a brief moment, but… yup, there ya go. 💪😎✌️ I was also on “Anderson Cooper Live” the day before. Crazy experience. I may have posted clips on this channel, but I don’t recall anymore; I’m doing other things now.
🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨
wow groovy who cares? You feel more important now? Big deal. I almost ran over Clint Eastwood in NOLA when he was making Tightrope.
i love your story, Lester…thank you for sharing.
The Wall in the No’rth.
– A la GoT.
#NavyVeteranKorea here. Loved your story here Mr Holt.
Aww I love you Lester Holt.
Edit to add
I didn’t know you were so old.
Just another reason I knew you were a warmonger, service brat. Manufacturing consent of a living.
He’s lying. He was lied to. He dropped out of of college and did NO MILITARY SERVICE himself.
The consumate prropagandist.
🌹 Thank you for sharing Mr. Holt. Great story. Now I see where your professionalism comes from. 🌹
Here’s the reality:
– RUS defense minister Sergei Shoigu is visiting KJ Un today thru 27 to help NK develop the TRIAD and air and waters defense. The U.S nuke subs of Ohio class KY and Annapolis coming in and out of the SK waters are the clear threads to the CH, RUS, and NK. No country in this earth eagerly presses the nuke war button with the U.S like KJ Un. In fact, KJ Un wants to have the open space pure fusion test using its claim of ballotechnics over Pac waters to undermine the U.S with its extremely high energy fusion capability to vaporize an area of >30K radius square miles. It’s also part of NK NBC stockpile using its old nuclear fission radiation.
– In meantime, CH defense minister refuses to talk to his U.S countetpart because the U.S has sanctioned any CH defense minister from contacting the U.S territory,
– Putin ssid, the ukraine war will end in the next Spring regardless what’ll happen. His statement has raised a lot of eye browses as the fear of the justified use of the nuclear weapons. The Bristish has been accused of aiding U in use the low grade nuclear ammunitions in Ukraine against RUS.
– Putin will visit Xi Jinping in the early next year.
– Putin will recrive the visit of 15 African nation heads of states. They will receive the RUS pledge of grains supply.
Sounds like a privelidged life to me but reparations and racism!
He will tell you anything to get you off The Biden family corruption being proven in the hearings.
He doesn’t tell you about China now Building bases in Cuba, 90 miles from America. But you would hear it on news, max and Fox News.
Just wondering.. Did Biden forget to read the proclamation. I might be wrong but as I remembered most president read it before signing?
