ARLINGTON WOMAN -Continued from PAGE ONE flew her and her daughter homes when they’ve been invaded by snakes, over- run with rats, crawling with cockroaches and broken into by bears, among other invasions,” the shows ad- vertising says. Sister Penny Krebs took a photo of Aamodt out- side her home with a spray- er fighting the crickets. “My sister took a picture of me and put on Facebook with a backpack sprayer. What could I do to get them off my property?” she said. “I ran over them with a lawn mower I had done every- thing I could think of, so my sister put it on Facebook, and it went viral and a com- pany from the UK saw it.” She says Animal Planet called and she did five to six interviews, then they 4-H kids participate in state shooting to Dallas, Texas where they did the production for the Intruders series. She says the production company did a lot of the actual shooting in England and wanted some crickets to film. “The crickets are actually native to America, so we caught 35 crickets, labeled them, gave each a name and made them promise to kill them when they were done,” she recalls. “We then sent them to the UK where they did the filming.” Following the show, Aamodt says she was invit- ed to Denver to a Mormon Cricket convention where she did a presentation, and has an open invitation to return, which she says she might do. When asked what the people of Ione could do if they want to volunteer like her to locate and fight the crickets, Aamodt says if they want to talk to her they are free to contact her about how to do it. “I would be more than happy to come and talk to them about what needs to happen to make this work. Hardest thing is going to be identification and location of where the crickets are to make it fea- sible financially to spray,” she says. “There can be a lot more damage done in Morrow County because of the circles and irrigated land,” she says.

Biden controlled by Obama administration To the editor: “If I could make an arrangement where I had a stand in, a front man or a front woman, and they had an earpiece in and I was in my basement in my sweats looking through the stuff, then I could sort of deliver the law but someone else was doing the talking and ceremony, then I’d be fine with that.” (Barack Obama, Stephen Colbert show, Dec. 1, 20) The Biden administra- tion is controlled by Obama administration operatives: Biden’s chief of staff (Klain), domestic policy (Rice), national economic director (Reece), corona re- sponse director (Zienti), cli- mate (Kerry), head of state (Blinken), veteran affairs (McDonough), agriculture (Vilsack), defense secretary (Austin). I could add more but those with ears to hear will get the point. The same Obama glo- balist operatives control our military. Gen. Frank McK- enzie, commander of U.S. Central Command Afghan- istan and Peter Vasey head of U.S. forces on the ground in Afghanistan have called on national media the Tali- ban “our Afghan partners.” The Biden/Obama military is in bed with the Taliban. They have been working with the Taliban for many years. In 2015 Obama ex- changed five Taliban/Al Qaida terrorists (“the hard- est of the hardest”) for a U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Berdahl who was later court marshalled for desertion and misbehavior before the enemy endangering the safety of the command. American soldiers were seriously injured in an effort to find Berdahl. Obama did not consult congress of this exchange despite specific pledges and legal require- ments. The Biden/ Obama military command has been negotiating with Taliban Head Khairullah Khairkha for U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, the same ter- rorist Obama released for a court marshalled deserter. Nothing happens by accident. The Biden/Obama administration left behind: 1) tens of billions of Ameri- cas` most sophisticated mil- itary resources (Black hawk helicopters, 75,878 military vehicles including armored personnel carriers, Hum- vees, armored vehicle car- riers, Super Tucano Attack Aircraft at $427,000,000, 600,000 infantry weapons, Wolfhounds Radio Mon- itoring system and night vision equipment costing $80,000,000, and that is the tip of the iceberg horror for the free world; 2) American citizens; 3) Afghan citizens that supported America. The Obama anti-Ameri- can operatives will blame a bungling incompetent Biden for the planned trage- dy. He has accomplished his purpose of destroying and humiliating America before the world and turning the world into “nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom” (Matthew 24:7a) with an America never to be trusted again. Is there hope in the midst of this debacle? Ab- solutely. Stop listening and trusting those that lie and deceive. The same people that caused the greatest defeat and humiliation in American history are the same people telling us to take the jab and wear a mask. These are the same people that led us into Viet- nam, Afghanistan, the Mid- dle East sacrificing millions of precious souls all based on lies and subterfuge. There is hope. Those patriots that knew and trust- ed the God of the Bible, our forefathers, never lost a war and built the greatest nation on earth based on obedience and faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Our greatest forefather, George Washington, was given a vision in Valley Forge of three great perils to face America, the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and the most fearful “where the whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land, and the Union.” (George Washington’s vi- sion for America, Library of Congress). Put your hope and trust in Jesus Christ my brethren, not ministers of deception. Prepare to endure the trib- ulation (food shortages, government mandates, pes- tilence, warfare). Our hope is Jesus Christ, and He will return just as He promised to end this wickedness.
