Here are 7 ways Thanksgiving can help you practice patience.

Today, we are going to take time to pray to stay grounded in moments of success. We have seen many examples of what to do and not to do within the pages of Scripture. May we remember that all of the glory belongs to the Lord

The 60 Minutes interview was supposed to be a cornerstone of Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’s much-ballyhooed “Media Blitz”, featuring such tough interviews as The View, Howard Stern, Stephen Colbert, and the Call Her Daddy podcast. Instead, it may have turned out to be a millstone. Here CBS’s Bill Whitaker performed a journalism- a practice that seems archaic these days. There were questions asked, and the expectation that these questions would be met with an answer. The interview began with a question on October 7th, and America’s relationship with Israel. Harris tries to split the baby by calling for a ceasefire and emphasizing America’s relationship with Israel but also distancing herself from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Here, she refuses to acknowledge Netanyahu as a close ally: This entire segment on Israel was already disgraceful to begin with- so much more so given it airs on October 7th pic.twitter.com/yiJfv7Asfe — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 From there, the interview went to economic proposals. Notice both Harris’s level of comfort once Whitaker gets past the first question, and the overall failure to answer the question: Excised from the full exchange on the economy with Bill Whitaker: the "I'm speaking" interruption pic.twitter.com/5IWwBZVSLw — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Whitaker proceeds to a question on Harris as a candidate, from whence comes this gem: The chutzpah on Kamala Harris to talk about earning the vote while skipping the 2024 presidential primary pic.twitter.com/ZQcIkh4pl4 — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 We come to the most damning portion of the interview: For the first time in memory, Harris gets seriously called out on her flip flops. Here, Harris responds by delivering a flurry of word salads. Furthermore, Kamala Harris cannot bring herself to admit that blowing the border wide open to the tune of millions of illegal migrants a year: Kamala Harris can't answer, despite repeated passes at the question, whether it was a mistake to blow the border open pic.twitter.com/DDf8SHe52E — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Whitaker asks Harris to explain Trump’s continued support, Harris narrowly avoids a “Basket of Deplorables” moment á la Hillary Clinton in 2016. In word-salading the question asking her to explain Trump's continued support by millions of Americans, Harris narrowly avoids a "Basket of Deplorables" moment. Just barely. pic.twitter.com/4C4NnzMbvE — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 The obligatory visit to Ripon, WI feels like a conquest victory tour. One wag noted that the Harris campaign exhibits their Republican endorsers with the pride of a hunter showing off their latest 12-point buck: Obligatory portion on the visit to Ripon. The Regime Media love it pic.twitter.com/fZGBHDRIum — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Pivoting back to foreign policy, Harris dodges on Ukraine NATO membership but not on continued American involvement in these conflicts.

Pressed on the gun ownership issue, Harris claims to own a Glock and done range time with it pic.twitter.com/lbpePcbwtc — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Moving on to Minnesota Governor and 2024 Democrat vice presidential nominee Tim Walz: Unlike Fox’s Shannon Bream, who presented a full menu of lies for Walz to choose to deflect from, Whitaker presses Walz on Tiananmen Square. Walz brushes it off to “passion” and “emotion”, and again largely skates on the character question.

Here, Whitaker softly sets Walz up to deliver a well-worn stump line: Whitaker keeping the "Republicans say your policies are radical" nonspecific allows Walz to skate by with a variant of his "what a monster, kids are fed" line pic.twitter.com/OpEjmB1d9I — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Walz gets another open-ended softball: the “weird” question. Another softball for Walz: the "Weird" question. pic.twitter.com/Er6l5wzDLR — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Finally, Harris is given a chance to make a closing argument. Harris is given a chance to make a closing argument pic.twitter.com/BYbBvWRlkR — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) October 8, 2024 Several things stick out from this interview: other than being perhaps a bit too chummy with Walz, Whitaker did his job. He pressed Harris on a number of issues in a way that the Regime Media had not done over the course of this compressed campaign. Harris, on the other hand, showed why the Regime Media failed by allowing her to run a Plexiglass Basement campaign until a month before the election. Her non-answers on her economic proposals and on immigration expose her. Her continued bookings on friendly outlets where she is guaranteed to get a tongue bath expose everyone else.

Michael Cohen Says Trump Will Use SEAL Team Six to Round Up His Political Enemies

The Cromwell Museum in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, is seeking to acquire one of only two pocket watches known to have belonged to Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of England. Because Cromwell fell so far out of favor after his death and the Restoration of the monarchy, his possessions were scattered and there is almost no material with a strongly evidenced connection to him. The only other provenanced watch of Cromwell’s is in the British Museum. The timepiece, with its delicately etched image of a hand with pointed finger, is “of a style known as a Puritan watch”. [Cromwell Museum curator Stuart] Orme said: “Seventeenth Century watches were completely over the top, with pierced foliate on the outside, whereas this is quite small and, to our modern eye, it appears classically beautiful.” Puritans were Protestants who, like Cromwell, thought the Reformation of the Church of England had not gone far enough. Such a watch was also quite an expensive status symbol for the parliamentarian, who was second-in-command by 1647 but “not quite as austere as people think”. The fob watch was made by William Clay around 1645. It has a circular clock face with a single steel hand, Roman numerals and a gilt outer calendar ring. It is mounted in a silver oval case. It is wee at just 1.5 inches long and one inch wide. Clay was a well-known watchmaker in the mid-17th. century, opening his first London shop in the 1630s. He established a workshop on King Street in Westminster in 1646. Cromwell bought the watch in 1647 when moved into a home a couple of doors down from Clay’s shop on King Street. He had it with him on his campaign in Ireland in 1649. According to Blackwell family lore, in 1650 Cromwell gifted the watch to cavalry officer and Deputy Treasurer at War John Blackwell, and husband of Oliver Cromwell’s cousin, Elizabeth Smithsby. Blackwell would go on to have a colorful career, working in the treasury, as a judge and as an MP during the Protectorate. Despite his republican leanings, he was loyal to Oliver Cromwell to the end, following his effigy in the cortege for his state funeral in 1658. He was not so fond of Oliver’s son and successor Richard, however, and took part in the military coup that overthrew him. Come the Restoration, Blackwell was permanently barred from holding government office. He moved across the pond to the Massachusetts Bay Colony, where he was appointed Governor of Pennsylvania by William Penn. He retired back to England by 1694. He died in 1701, bequeathing the watch Cromwell had given him 50 years before to his sons. It remained in the Blackwell family (Bagwell for the Irish branch) by descendance for more than 350 years. One of those heirs, Colonel John Bagwell (1751-1816), showed the watch to historian and Cromwell genealogist Richard Gough. Gough had it sketched and published in the December 1808 issue of Gentleman’s Magazine, an extremely rare instance of a Cromwell object being documented so early in a scholarly publication. Historic jewelry specialist Martyn Downer acquired the watch when the family sold it at an auction in Carlisle in 2019. He paid £18,000 and purely as a 17th century Puritan watch with a silver case that price would have been a huge bargain. For such a rare timepiece which additionally boasted a demonstrable connection to Cromwell, the price was a small fraction of its worth. During COVID lockdown, Downer restored the watch and researched its history to confirm the Blackwell lore. In 2021, he offered it for sale for ten times the amount he’d paid for it, £180,000. It is still for sale today. The watch has been on display at the museum since January of this year. The special exhibition November 10th, but the museum is raising funds to buy the watch for its permanent collection. It has one of the best collections in the world of objects from the life and times of Oliver Cromwell, but as a charitable organization, it has no acquisition budget. The museum is working on securing most of the money needed in grants from trusts and foundations, but must raise £9,500 on its own. So far they have raised £1,025 of that target.
