It is what it is – 11.20.24 – Jen Brien

“IT’S IN THE WAY THAT YOU USE IT”

Somewhere back in the 80’s when TOM CRUISE was ridiculously handsome, there was a film made that he starred in called the “Color of Money”. The title track was a song by ERIC CLAPTON called “It’s in the way that you USE IT”. I didn’t really like the film – though, I loved Paul Newman, but nonetheless, I always remembered the words to part of the song because they are such a profound truth and a truth that gets lost on many with influence and power. The part that stuck with me is “It’s in the way that you USE IT, it comes, and it goes”, “so don’t you ever abuse it, don’t let it go”. As a 17-year-old in 1985 when the film was released, the way I INTERPRETED these lines were: if you’re blessed with a gift that elevates you or puts you out front in some way, if you misuse that gift, we are wandering into JOB 1:21 territory…”THE LORD giveth, and the LORD taketh away”. Pretty simple gang, yet we see time and time again that many with POWER fall… and mightily.

I mention this today because DONALD TRUMP has A LOT OF POWER at the moment. We all know what happened on election day (LANDSLIDE) though some on the left are still in denial… and that’s ok… but the REALITY is he is in BEAST MODE power wise, and I hope he is fully aware of what’s been given to him by the people. I think he does. I really do. That is not to say he won’t have his moments or tantrums or salty convos with people who did him dirty over the past 4 years, but it will be interesting to see what he does with all that he has been given.

I watch, I listen, I observe things and people. People say A LOT… and never deliver in politics and in life. People promise things and let you down daily, and people… MANY PEOPLE think they are WAY MORE important than they actually are. MY GOD those types make me crazy. ZERO HUMILITY ONE MILLION PERCENT PRIDE. Ugh…. need examples? a FEW actresses RACHEL ZEGLER, CYNTHIA ERVIO, actor ROBERT De NIRO, either CLINTON or ANYONE WHO WORKS AT MSNBC. JESSE WATERS from FOX is up there BUT, he routinely laughs at HIMSELF, so he gets a pass… The point is, TRUMP won the whole enchilada… ALL OF WASHINGTON. HE literally won the whole POT with all chips in… SO, I do hope he remembers who put him there and runs his administration with “WE THE PEOPLE” in mind. I’m rooting FOR HIM because I LOVE AMERICA and I’M ROOTING FOR AMERICA (P.S if you have power in some way… or influence, remember – no matter how fabulous and untouchable you THINK you are… it’s a lie. You’re easily replaceable. You can accept that or not. That’s up to you… but it’s a hard cold fact. Don’t believe me? Look what they did to JOE BIDEN. Just sayin… )

LET’S BE HONEST:

IF you’re getting dumped by all your DEMOCRAT friends on FACEBOOK these days, they have the problem, NOT YOU.

AMERICA VOTED AGAINST TRANS EXTREMISM on election day NOT TRANS PEOPLE. PEOPLE from all across AMERICA believe in EQUALITY – just not when equality requires stomping on the back of other marginalized groups because the TRANS COMMUNITY wants what they want the way they want it, when they want it… without debate or discussion. NAH – it doesn’t work that way. 

MIKA AND JOE met with their version of “HITLER” at MAR-A-LAGO for ratings last weekend. That MOVE, is reprehensible. THE HEADLINE should be “TRUMP is DECENT enough to have welcomed those horrible people into HIS HOME.”

MAYO can’t COACH. He will be FIRED after next season. 

WHOOPI GOLDBERG lies. ABOUT EVERYTHING. HER LAST NAME IS A LIE. THE “I’m working class like you” claim is a lie and her war with HOLTERMANN’S BAKERY is a scam and a lie. I hope the BAKERY sues ABC and WHOOPI for defamation.

WE ARE ALL waiting for Travis Kelce and Taylor SWIFT to break up…

One of the MENENDEZ brothers will be BACK in jail after their release… I say in less than a year

A crap ton of people WON’T admit it, but they don’t think WE REALLY WENT TO THE MOON. 

A LOT OF PEOPLE WONDER – If abortion is NOT MURDER, then why does someone who kills a pregnant woman get charged with a double homicide?

SANCTUARY CITIES

For some reason, despite the OVERWHELMING majority of AMERICAN citizens telling politicians in the voting booth that we do believe in MIGRATION, but want migration that makes sense (not OPEN BORDERS), money to fund these people, and a SANE SAFE PROCESS, many DEMOCRAT GOVERNORS are now saying they will defy any DEPORTATION PUSH the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION is cooking up. (WHICH was something that was PROMISED on the campaign trail) You know what I say to them? OK! you can have all the migrants, then! YOU WANT YOUR FRONT DOOR WIDE OPEN? NO PROBLEM! YOU AND YOUR STATES can have TREN DE ARAGUA, THE CARTELS, THE DRUGS, THE FISCAL BURDEN, THE CRIME, THE DISEASE, THE CHAOS, CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING, THE SMUGGLERS, THE RAPISTS and THE KILLERS. YOU GET IT ALL!

The buses will flow nonstop to your states / communities with ILLEGALS, and we wish you and your constituents the BEST OF LUCK.  I’m all for choices and OPTIONS so, if YOU WANT IT, YOU GOT IT! We ALL believe in migration in the U.S. WE ARE A MELTING POT… but we are not what the BIDEN/HARRIS ADMIN has served up for 4 years. It’s insane, unsafe and unsustainable. GIVE THE FAR-LEFT STATES what they want. THAT’S WHAT I SAY. Let em have it ALL!

AMERICANS WHO VOTED FOR TRUMP: (SHORT LIST)

ARE NOT racist, transphobic, xenophobic or stupid. They simply think differently than PROGRESSIVES

BELIEVE IN AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM

Come from all walks of life, religions and races

DO NOT WANT OUR MILITARY to be a social experiment. UNDERSTANDING THE MILITARY is a FORCE designed to kill if there is a WAR OR CONFLICT

BELIEVE IN CAPITALISM, FREE SPEECH, and THE 2nd AMENDMENT

DO NOT HAVE A VICTIM MENTALITY

HAVE FAITH IN GOD

BELIEVES every person can achieve their DREAMS WITH HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION

DO NOT need to be told WHAT TO THINK

CAN STILL HAVE HOLIDAY MEALS WITH PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR BIDEN

That’s all I got this week gang….”IT IS WHAT IT IS”

TILL NEXT TIME!
