Like the titular character in the 1939 film, “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,” the 40-year-old entrepreneur was apparently discouraged by how the federal government works.
Used to work at a Dennys as a bus boy and dishwasher as a teen. Worked with a waitress who was probably 55-60. Her husband would sit at the bar for most of the day, occasionally ordering her around.
On my way out on my last day, I said to him, "Al, why don't you get off your fat ass and get a job, and leave your wife alone."
He shot off the stool, grabbed me by the collar, dragged me out the front door, LIFTED me off the ground, laid me up against the wall and lit into me. I was so shocked at his strength and speed, I started crying, thinking he was going to beat me to a pulp.
He was probably a trucker or something, but was surprised, as I had no idea he had that strength. I hope his wife appreciated the effort by a smart alek kid to stand up for her.
Heh. Was NOT expecting to share that story the rest of my life.
I have to say that I admire a person who tries to do the right thing as you did. You had empathy in your heart for that lady who probably endured worse at home from her bully of a husband, and whether she appreciated what you did or not is irrelevant in my mind. Thanks for sharing a story that you have carried for a long time and now you have set it down and that is good for you.
While I know absolutely nothing about her brother Calley, Casey Means deserves immense praise for her fierce advocacy for the appropriate clinical use of psychedelics like psilocybin and DMT. It is incredibly refreshing to see someone championing evidence-based, heavy-hitting biochemical tools instead of succumbing to the standard cultural panic. What a stark contrast she is to the legions of online neurotics suffering from terminal pharmacophobia—those fragile souls who trigger their own nocebo effects and enter a state of absolute clinical dread at the mere mention of a molecule that alters perception. While they are busy hiding under the covers from life-saving compounds, Dr. Means is actually looking at the science.
It's become clear that if this administration is championing anything or pretending there's anything that's evidence based, it's only being done to weaponize it or hand it over to those who'll use "the science" against patients.
And yet, as of some months ago, though he said he'd absolutely not give his children the covid jab, he refused to say they should be removed from the market!! I've not trusted he or his sister since their entrance onto the stage.
The schizophrenia, lies, obfuscation and gaslighting in what has proven to be this administration is off the charts. So Means (who catapulted to fame in some kind of psyop to begin with), is now of the mind that, "...had become increasingly frustrated with what he regarded as the administration’s failure to deliver promised MAHA reforms." But, somehow, he still has the utmost respect for Epst€in-class Trump and the now mRNA-loving grifter RFK? Got it. Everything has become an Alice-in-Wonderland psyop in this catastrophically genocidal administration. The double talk and ridiculousness of everything happening is truly surreal.
Wiles is a huge problem. Take ownership of your health. Know where your food comes from 90% of grocery stores Costco included has no nutritional value and is toxic. Just like allopathy 750,000 iatrogenic deaths per year and not a peep. mRna clot shots vaccines galore. Young fit sheeple dropping dead or crazy diseases. Houston we have a problem
And there we have it! We've long suspected that new mRNA injections are just a 'Trojan Horse' used to depopulate the planet? ".......................and financial incentives within the healthcare industry."
The healthcare Industry wants and needs our bodies to be less resistant to illnesses and diseases in order to profit from 'cures' they pretend are for our best health interests'. They sabotage our health for their financial gain! 'GREED' which can manifest itself as premeditated mass-murder!
I'm not convinced 'Depopulation' isn't just another (WEF) 'New World Order' specification that Big Med and Big Pharma use as their guidance for policies?
Your comment about taking a little education and personal responsibility for making healthy food choices lands a little arrogantly. In fact, the old Home EC classes once taught in public schools, a class where basics like food purchase, preparation, and nutrition (among other things) were provided, have gone down the same path as the Dodo. MANY folks do not have a clue how to navigate a grocery store for healthy food. Nor how to prepare food in its natural state. I have taken my educated, middle-aged friends to farmstands and grocery stores and showed them how to select food and, then, how to make economical, healthy meals.
And then there are food deserts where the ONLY option is your 7/11.
I'm happy you have the brains, the tools, and the money to make healthy choices. I'm grateful I do as well. But please do not disparage those who do not. Instead, consider how you personally might make a difference.
As for Calley Means... whatever. The turnover of impactful people in this administration points to more than disagreements within and between the WH and the bureaucratic machine and MAHA. It points to the fact that this nation has no leadership, just a bunch of folks squawking loudly about what's best for the 'people' and then profiting from their 'solutions'. And that includes profiteers in the COVID space. Peace...
I followed the Means siblings before the administration started. I am fond of them. Our whole govt from city to national level is one big disappointment
Means has been such an eyesore for the past two years. It's not speculation as to what he's been up to. Some of us know his conduct well enough to justify hating his guts and his sister's. Oh and we don't believe a word he says about why he's leaving. He made a fortune meddling in the Whitehouse. He will continue to get wealthier using his newfound social network. He never advocated for health freedom and the communities supporting secretary Kennedy. He leaves his post with impeccable and amicable relationship with the pharmaceutical industrial complex. Think all the wonderful things he can achieve for his family down the road. Bravo 🤑
I saw a clip of Gary Brecka where he talked about Blue Zones and his opinion that the one similarity wasn’t the actual certain foods they ate, it was that they ate real food and not processed food.
Concerning your wiry superior, it does seem that young people can get away with the poor diet for a time and then all that starts to catch up and disease sets in.
I agree with you concerning ad hominem criticism. It seems clear that changing the machines that control our system isn’t something straight forward and easy.
<<Regarding America’s food supply: It requires little education and only a small measure of personal responsibility to avoid the mountains of obvious junk food on the shelves of American grocery and convenience stores.>> No. You're missing the biggest components for healthy eating: MONEY and TIME.
If you don't have money, you're working 12 hour days, maybe even forced Sat and Sun work (currently happening at the factory my husband works at.) If you don't have time to educate yourself, you can't eat better. If you can't shift through misinformation about food, because you don't know enough to even know where to start learning, you can't eat better.
But mainly, and with all due respect, Americans have less money than ever before, and eating well costs TIME (for education, procurement and preparation) and money.
A banana is not a full meal. What else in that gas station is healthy besides an extremely overpriced bag of peanuts? I'm all for personal responsibility, but I also think that behavior is often situationally induced.
Soybean oil and vaccines are both slow kill weapons. Casey Means wrote an excellent book. No mention of vaccines because that is not what the book is about. I can not fault Calley Means and RFK Jr for trying. I believe Casey and Calley were unfairly attacked for not having expertise on the vaccine issues. What we need to grasp is that our government is essentially controlled by a satanic cult. Improving our health is not part of the satanic agenda.
Mr. Means, no mention of the millions of people worldwide still being poisoned by the C19 shots? Are you not the least frustrated with this abomination continuing unabated? Were you concerned with the hospital protocols that prevented effective treatments and poisoned people with a failed cancer drug? How about two-week safety trials for vaccines without a placebo? Sure, processed foods are a problem, but perhaps you could address just a few of the far greater issues destroying the health and lives of Americans?
All the good people are resigning unfortunately.Can't stand the corruption and lies in the government.Guess they could not imagine that it would be this bad.
Got to watch out for those wiry ones. They are generally all muscle and will kick your ass to hell and back.
Yes, even when he made fun of me for being "a worthless and weak boss's son," I never even thought about firing back with an insult.
Discretion is truly the better part of valor.

Oh I still manage to get in trouble now and then for speaking up or speaking the truth. Thank you for your comment and sentiment!

Is this a revelation for you or did you have an inkling earlier? Surely you knew that Bibi is the boss behind the frontman?
Shabbat Shalom..😁

Fully agreed, I wrote a similar comment.
