Greetings,,
2017 is already off to a wacky start. President Donny Tiny Hands isn’t weird and wild enough, looks like the break down of the Deep State have emboldened Aliens to start revealing themselves to us.
The Chilean Navy captured a UFO with 10 minutes of compelling footage using infrared cameras.
Watch this and it becomes clear. It isn’t swamp gas, or light refraction or ball lightning, weather balloons.
Although the weaksauce debunkers are already claiming it was a plane. Trust your eyes.
<Extraterrestrials 1, Swamp Gas 0; 50 sec.>
As if UFO’s aren’t enough, we get President Trump today (Jan. 20). As a Progressive, I have offered my humble services to our new President in a way that one of my Reggae idols Prince Buster did to Jamaica in the 60’s.
I volunteer to be Trump’s Minister of Ganja & Space Exploration; 44 sec.
I can advise our President why they are here….
bless, robt

Robert, love your music, wanted to send you an extensive e-mail, following the legacy of my beloved husband Richard Thomas who passed away last May, he was an unbelievable admirer of your wonderful music and faithful contributor to keep you going….I always listened to your music with him, never payed attention to your political
views…..now I understand why he would get annoyed at times…..we were flower children, been there done that…loved it, but it was time to move on and grow up, I appreciate your views, have lots of friends with opposing views and I respect that, it is America and love it!, but would love to go to a place were I can go and totally enjoy your music and get away from the political mess…..anyway, would love to hear a response as I faithfully enjoy and still listen to your music for my pleasure and his
honor…….my e-mail is Maria_tennis@hotmail.com………thx! 🙂
I know you mentioned him shortly after on one of your shows, and I know
he was smiling and appreciated that……
Maria Thomas
Hi Maria,
Thank you for your message. I got lost in the shuffle after last Radiothon and I am glad you have reached out. I will send you an email if for someone reason you don’t get this.
I admired sparring with Richard on politics and was saddened to hear of his passing. I never know when a listener has moved on or out of the Valley when I don’t hear from them.
Thank you for letting me know that he listened until it was time for him to join Jah’s Heavenly Choir as we all will some day.
bless, robt
Hi Robert, I am so enjoying your music as I celebrate my Richard’s B’day…you are the best, everybody else is good, but I can tell when you are not on, something about your choices that make it soooo great for me….thx., I know my Richard is listening somewhere……
Maria
