Are you ready to send your 18 to 25 year old sons to war? Trump just made Selective Service sign-up automatic. A drastic policy change, meaning the DRAFT is one HUGE step closer. Trump also just pulled 5,000 U.S. troops from our base in Germany! And he also did this in June 2020 directly after he got off the phone with Putin. Trump will do anything for Putin, like making America weaker by firing our top-notch generals, dismantling crucial security programs, and using up our ammunition. And Langworthy hasn’t stopped him. Wake up!

Your birth control is in danger. Trump, Langworthy, and the Republican Congress are maneuvering to take it away. They want you to count days instead and pray that you’re covered. How many children do you really want? Ten, twelve, twenty? Kick them out of your private ways. Vote them out.

“The Nazi Mind: Twelve Warnings from History,” by historian Laurence Rees, indicates Donald Trump. Warnings: insisting the leader is a “hero,” embracing violence, and demanding complicity. In other words, making sure you get in line by threatening jail, violent ICE raids, stealing your money and data, removing health insurance, food, and mobility. Also listed: suppression of Free Speech and Press, purging opponents, pushing racism, extinguishing the rule of law, controlling judges. Remember the South Carolina judge’s house that burned down after ruling against Trump? We fought WWII against Nazism. Don’t be fooled. Your country and family’s future depend on you.

That’s a good catch, Mama Gump! The Southern Poverty Law Center might just be Democrats! How many years did it take you to figure that one out?

I enjoy this column if for nothing else than its entertainment value. Last week’s entry that Democrats want to repeal the Bill of Rights and virtually all other divisions of government was most humorous since this supposition is a complete falsehood. Let’s give Democrats the credit they deserve: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, civil rights legislation, Food Stamps, CHIP/Science, unemployment insurance, Overtime pay, School lunches, rural electrification, and on and on. Republicans want to reduce or get rid of all these programs and others.

I have never seen so many major franchises shut down or overembellish their prices since Dumbo Donald took office! How about ga$$$$!

To the complainers about our President: Stop whining – he’s correct in keeping the pressure on Iran; they have been bullies for TOO MANY years! Rid New York of Hochul, Schumer, and all the other whiny Democrats, and you’ll see a drop in prices across the board! Hooray, Mama Gump! Hooray Studebaker!

Hakeem Jeffries or Schumer could not tell the truth without straining a ligament.

Our founding fathers went to great lengths to ensure that we were a republic, not a democracy. In fact, the word democracy does not appear in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, or any other of our founding documents. — Mama Gump

Town of Newark Valley code inforcer there’s a growing junk yard on Markham Rd. Let’s get the owner to clean this up. Is this even a legal repair shop?
I have to admit the experts were right. They said if we give trump cult members the truth, it’ll cause them to make up lies and defend their cult leader more than ever.
Republicans are abusing the speech and debate clause.
Imagine the pennysaver posted the truth I’ve been trying to tell our community, for a decade. Instead it posts every lie trump and his Russianpublican Party have told the American people for 10+ years. We might not be looking at an incoming financial crisis that will make the great decision look like a holiday you’ve longed for all your life. I told you we’d be at war with Iran,you dismissed it. Here we are,at war with Iran.
I spoke to a Reagan Republican a couple of months ago.
The one thing I thought I was sure about was, Reagan Republicans couldn’t be brainwashed enough to turn on Reagan’s knowledge that Russia is our enemy. I told him my dog’s name is Zelenskyy. President Zelenskyy has taken over 1.4 million Russian troops off the field of battle, permanently.
Reagan would call Zelenskyy an American hero, just like I do. A Reagan Republican threw me for a loop when he called putin’s genocide in Ukraine,that mess.
You were lied to,ask your phone if Putin said,what goes on between Ukraine and NATO is between Ukraine and NATO. Putin never said Ukraine can’t join NATO, that’s a Trump/Republican/right-wing lie. But who the heck is Putin to tell anyone they can’t join NATO, anyway?
I was shocked when a Reagan Republican who refused to admit Reagan is responsible for trickle down economics and the huge wealth gap, used a disrespectful dismissal of President Zelenskyy.
*The elite Reagan helped have only gotten more greedy, since. Some of them just got a tax payer funded trip to China.
Reagan trickle down turned crooks into millionaires who then became billionaires and are now racing to be the first trillionaire.
*Republicans have served the elite since Reagan,fact not hyperbole. Every Republican but H.W. Bush has given the elite at least 1 tax cut while in the Oval Office.
That’s when Republicans started using culture wars and abortion for votes.
If you want to see when I knew Hegseth was going to war, for netanyahu, read the pennysaver archives.
Start with the week of Hegseth’s confirmation hearing,1/14/2025. I don’t think I left anything out or exaggerated at all.
*I say something weeks to months before it happens, everyone calls me crazy. They never reset that invalid opinion when what I said, actually happens.
Are Hegseth and netanyahu about to ignore intelligence that will the death of a bunch of American troops.
They can’t drop a nuke unless there’s a large casualty event. (A lot of dead American troops)
We don’t have munitions to carry on a sustained attack on Iran, anymore. Our enemies are counting everything Hegseth is using.
Hegseth dropped about a billion dollars in munitions bombing the Houthis and the Houthis are still threatening commerce in the Red Sea.
The more Hegseth and Trump threaten a large attack from America is imminent, the less conventional munitions we have.
netanyahu ignored the Hamas attack plan, ignored IDF troops who told netanyahu they saw Hamas rehearsing the plan netanyahu had, weeks before October 7. Why didn’t netanyahu bring the Gaza brigade back from the West Bank?
*Did netanyahu sacrifice those Israelis on October 7 so he could get away with genocide and ethnic cleansing in Palestine. Zionism is an insult and spat in the face of Jesus Christ!!
Your Christian Bible called the Holy lands, Palestine until the 1913 edition of the Bible. Ask your phone about the 1905 Bible, It called the Holy lands, Palestine.
How trump and his traitors did this to America, trump told you not to believe what you’re seeing and hearing unless it comes from him or Sean Hannity. Hannity did the same thing. I started triple fact checking anything and everything trump said. Maga just stopped using the encyclopedia/Bible/dictionary/United States Constitution in our phone.
I wonder if anyone here looked up what I said about God telling Lot how to tell if your wife was carrying another man’s kid,if you did,you know that’s what God told moses,not Lot. I’ve tried to cause real conversation in our community,the pennysaver is more interested in putting lies in the Pennysaver Press hard copy. Moses is a more significant person in Zionism than Lot. Why did your preacher tell you God is against abortion? It’s a misrepresentation at best and a lie told from the altar of God,at worst. Would Jesus Christ treat these lying preachers like the merchants in the Temple of God?
Now maga have decided the United States Constitution is anti American.
If you care about the truth, you’ll find it on MSNOW from 4pm to the 11th Hour.
Yes they’ll give you the opposite of what fox, oan and newsmax tell you because fox, oan and newsmax tell you the opposite of reality. It might be too late. Until the support Trump’s getting in his second term, I never thought America was in jeopardy, we are.
*fox paid Dominion voting systems, $787,500,000.00 for knowingly and maliciously lying, maga didn’t care.
*Oan paid Dominion voting systems millions for knowingly and maliciously lying about the 2020 election.
*Newsmax paid Dominion millions of dollars for knowingly and maliciously lying.
Dozens of right-wing podcasters repeated every lie foxOanNewsmax told us about the 2020 election.
My next comment will show you that trump knew he was lying about the election. I’ll lay out the evidence that caused over 80 judges to throw out over 60 false cases of voter fraud in 2020.
I’m pretty sure the pennysaver will hide it just like they’ve done for the last 10 years.
1948, the NAKBA happened in Palestine. 750,000 Palestinians were evicted from their homes. They were told God gave Jewish people your family home, A 2,000 year old book written by Jewish people, said so.
If that happened in our area, every American between Elmira and Binghamton would be evicted over a 2,000 year old book written by Jewish people. Would you give your family home to Jewish people who had never been in America?
God sent His only be gotten Son, Jesus Christ, as a homeless brown immigrant, not on a war horse to do murder for zionists in Palestine. Sadly, I believe this was the last chance for maga Christians to reject the unholy doctrine of Talibangelical preachers.
A local preacher said my grandfathers were Nazis.
Maternal grandfather was Catholic and fought fascists in the Pacific theater. My paternal grandfather was hit with a Nazi machine gun bullet during the Battle of the Bulge. Neither were Nazis, both sacrificed for America.
If you think Biden was responsible for the deaths in the withdrawal from Afghanistan, I have a few videos from Trump rallies, you might be interested in.
Trump was laughing and bragging about forcing the Afghanistan withdrawal timeline on Biden. Trump said something like, Biden tried to stop the withdrawal, but I (Trump) made it so he couldn’t. At this point, I double dog dare you to watch the videos of trump admitting the botched withdrawal was on trump, himself.
The main definition of a democracy, a government system run by ELECTED OFFICIALS. The same with a Republic.Both are run by ELECTED OFFICIALS.
Please tell us what you think the difference is between a democracy and a Republic.
There is no difference.
When you said the founders fought to keep America a Republic, you told me you’re very wealthy or brainwashed by wealthy people.
Yes, the founders wanted a system where only land owners were allowed to vote
Feels kinda weird when someone is saying freedom but also advocates for a system where only rich land owners vote.
Thanks Michael. You are absolutely correct. I just hope those conned by the far right nuts come to their senses (although I don’t have much hope for “Mama Gump”).
Might be a good time for local and state law enforcement leadership hold mandatory viewing of January 6, 2021 documentaries.
All cops need to see the the people who beat blue lives to a bloody pulp on January 6.
Those are the people trump is trying to steal nearly $2B from America,for
It’s absolute insanity that trump used 1776 to steal money from the Treasury.
1776 is when we threw the king out of America.
Trump is using while trying to install himself as a King.
If you want to see the truth of January 6, please start with these videos.
*Democracy on Trial
*Day of Rage. Frontline has a couple of documentaries on January 6 and the lead up.
Do you know 20-25% of the military claim no affiliation with any religion? If you go back to Hegseth’s confirmation hearing, I knew he would be on a one man Christian crusade in the Middle East.
American troops were KIA for someone trying to end democracy in America. What the heck is going on!?¿
