I was in the scouts, from Cub Scout to Boy Scouts attaining Life Scout, one rank below Eagle. I became addicted to fumes, car and perfumes… When the scout organization started accepting gay scouts, girls and allowing homosexuals to be leaders I sent them a letter requesting in the strongest language to strike my name off of their roles, I sent back my Life badge and my Order of the Arrow badge and sash and other awards and accolades I had. I told them I was revulsed and disgusted with the direction scouting was heading and I wanted nothing to do with them and that I no longer would support or recommend this organization. They can fade away into hell where they belong.

Boy Scouts of America name change becomes official in effort to be more ‘inclusive’

The organization officially changed its name on Saturday to Scouting America

“Scouting America has remained committed to providing youth with a safe environment where they can learn meaningful life skills, create lifelong memories and grow into tomorrow’s leaders,” the organization wrote in the statement. “In fact, more than 130 million Americans have been through Scouting America programs since our founding in 1910.”

Fox News Digital previously reported the rebranding came after a substantial hit in membership during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The organization’s website features its new name, but social media accounts still have the traditional handles.

“Scouting America has helped instill timeless values for multiple generations of Americans,” Krone wrote in the statement. “In an increasingly complex and interconnected world, the values and skills instilled by Scouting are more critical than ever and the need for strong character, ethical decision-making and effective leadership remains paramount.”

Krone added it is reaffirming its commitment to providing a “safe and supportive environment” where young people can develop essential qualities.

Because I’m not a lawyer, let’s hear from someone who is.

I subscribed to William’s Youtube channel a long time ago. mainly because he is based in and concerned with issues here in Washington state but he does watch things that affect us nation wide.

10 Inefficiencies In Government Computer Systems Identified By DOGE Workers

Feb 6, 2025 · BabylonBee.com

The Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency has been on the warpath against federal waste and turning over every seedy rock to shed light on inefficiencies in our nation’s agencies and institutions. Government computer systems are no exception.

The Babylon Bee has obtained the following list of glaring inefficiencies found in government computer systems:


  1. All machines were still running Windows 3.1: C’mon, government… at least upgrade to Windows 95.
  2. The internal IRS chat platform was two cans tied together with a string: The Biden administration had already requisitioned 174,000 more cans for its 87,000 new agents at a cost of $20 billion.
  3. The FBI couldn’t make phone calls while the CIA was using the dial-up line: You wouldn’t believe how many times a CIA agent got kicked off the internet because some dumb FBI agent picked up the phone.
  4. The Social Security numbers for every American were being stored in one big MS Word doc: To keep it secure, they disguised them by using the Wingdings font.
  5. Government internet access was provided by AOL: Welcome!
  6. The nuclear launch codes were stored in a Texas Instruments graphing calculator: Thankfully, nobody ever knows how to work those things.
  7. The FBI Most Wanted database was just pictures of Catholic moms and a Magic 8 Ball: The bureau was only targeting the worst of the worst.
  8. Woke government programmers kept trying to make the computer language non-binary: This caused the entire government computer mainframe to identify as inoperable.
  9. Every single computer in the entire government was plugged into one giant power strip: This accounts for the constant strain on the U.S. power grid.
  10. All agency computer passwords were “password”: Fortunately, DOGE changed all passwords to “password1” to preserve national security.

Fixing the inefficiencies listed above should make the federal government run like a well-oiled machine in no time.
