After some time, Henry goes into the room to check on Jennifer, "You okay now?" He asks her, so she just looks up at him.

"Taking it as Abby isn't adjusting well due to all the noise."

"Not as well as you did. I have some news... Jimmy and Sully agreed to sign a full confession. But they won't sign it unless they get to say goodbye to you and Abby. I just told her as well." He puts his hand out to help her to get up so she looks at it, "Come on. I'm not going to hurt you, Jen."

"Henry, if you could... would you have done this all a different way without killing people?" She takes his hand as he pulls her to stand up.

"No... there was no other way because they would all still be in the way." He sighs looking her in the eyes.

"You know, it wouldn't have taken much to get me. You know how close we were before coming here. I would've done anything for you then, Hen."

"And we're still close, Jen." He motions for her to leave the room with him, so she does.

They wait downstairs till Abby joins them, and he walks them to the guys. Abby goes to Jimmy, and when Jennifer was going to go over to Sully, Henry stops her, "One at a time." He tells her.

Abby apologizes to Jimmy for leaving him, and she kisses him. Henry becomes jealous and pulls her away from Jimmy. Henry slaps Abby when she tells him she loves Jimmy, making her fall to the ground.

Henry panics, feeling bad for hitting her, so Jennifer makes a run for it, so Abby stabs him in the foot with an awl before running out too. Henry chases them, grabbing the boarding knife on his way out.

After Henry leaves, Jimmy pulls the nail Abby slipped him out from under his tongue and used it to pick the lock on his handcuffs.

"Are you even capable of running?" Jimmy helps Sully get loose.

"I don't care if I die as long as I can protect her from Henry." Sully tells him, "I'm sorry for-,"

Jimmy cuts him off, "It's good, dude. We got to help the girls." He tells him and they go after the others, with Sully moving slightly slower.

Jennifer comes to a cliff and soon Abby almost runs into her but Jennifer stops them from falling off. Henry catches up to them and Abby concludes that Henry told Jimmy and Sully, he'd kill them unless they signed a confession. Henry denies it, stating he would die without them.

"Really? Then why do you have the boarding knife?" Jennifer says as she and Abby hold onto each other's arms.

Henry tosses it over the edge, "There. Now do you believe me? You two and this island are my home. The only thing that makes sense to me."

"None of this makes sense." Jennifer walks towards him and Abby tries to stop her but Jennifer knew he wouldn't hurt her, "You destroyed everything we love? You killed Abby's dad, our friends. Now you want to take Jimmy from us and Sully from me."

"BUT YOU HAVE ME!"

"WE DON'T WANT YOU!" She screams back at him and she can see how hurt he was so she steps closer, "You ruined everything, Hen. You ruined us for this." She tears up as he steps closer to her, and Sully comes running at them, tackling Henry off the edge.

Henry reached for Jennifer so Jimmy runs over pulling her back so he goes over the edge with the two.

Jennifer rushes to get down before Abby, rushing over to Sully first only because he was in bad shape compared to Jimmy, "You break anything else?" She asks him.

"I don't think so." He groans as Abby goes to Jimmy, asking if he was okay. "Jen," Sully sees Henry walking towards them.

"Jennifer!" Abby tosses the boarding knife to her, so she runs it through Henry's stomach, feeling bad deep down.

Jennifer's hands shake, looking at where she impaled him before looking back up at him with tears in her eyes, "Jenny." They both go down to their knees.

"I-I..." She cries to him because he was her best friend after all. She did love him, but it wasn't in the same way as his love for her and Abby. "Hen," She sees the hurt in his eyes.

"But... I love you." 

"I love you too." She barely whispers as he slowly dies.

Abby and Jimmy slowly walk over to them as Jennifer looks at her hands, "Jen?" Abby bends down next to her. "Jennifer..." She looks at Abby with tears running down her cheeks so Abby hugs her.

"Ow, fuck. Why did I tackle him off a cliff?" Sully groans as Jimmy helps him up.

"I have no clue. You were slow the whole way here, then suddenly, you slammed on the gas pedal. You almost took Jen, too so I took the fall instead." Jimmy groans as well. "If you ladies are ready, I'd love to go find help. I'm sure Sully really would." Jimmy holds him up.

"Yeah, we just have to walk a few miles." Abby says, pulling Jennifer up as she was still in a little state of shock.

Later after walking for a while, they finally get to help and the coast guard gets them on the boat to head to the mainland. Jennifer watches Jimmy and Abby share a kiss so Sully holds her hand, "You did what you had to do." He tells her.

"Why do I feel bad if he deserved it?"

"You've known him your whole life. You thought he was someone that would never hurt you or was capable of that stuff." He says as she starts to tear up again.

"This whole time... He was our brother. And I've always treated him like he was one. He knew we were his sisters, yet... he still loved us in a different way. He ruined everything because of something we said as kids. It's really our fault." She cries, so he holds her.

Abby and Jimmy go to the Seattle FBI field office, while Jennifer goes to the hospital with Sully and a few officers. They all were questioned about the whole thing from the first day up until now alone. At the moment, Jen was waiting for Sully to get out of surgery when Shea walked into view with Madison.

"I heard you and Sully would be here." She goes to sit next to her.

"I'm just waiting for him to get out of surgery. he was stabbed in the back, broke his arm and sprained his ankle."

"Henry didn't make it?" Shea says, not knowing that piece of info that he helped Wakefield.

"No, I killed him..." She looks at her and could see all the emotions going she was going through. "He killed Trish... and Ben, Fain, your dad, Richard, Malcolm, JD, and Katherine. He killed our dad, Wakefield. He was going to kill Sully too. His romantic obsession with Abby and I motivated him to lure us and everyone to the island was all part of an elaborate gambit to kill off everybody from his and our old lives so we could be happy together on the island forever. All for something Abby and I said to him when we were kids. " Jennifer cries to her.

"I don't blame you for his action because of his deranged mind taking something you said as kids literal." Shea says as the doctor says Sully can be seen now. Sully was glad to see Shea and Madison were safe and she thanked him for getting them off the island again before letting him get some rest with Jennifer.

"Since you are responsible for breaking my arm... I'm expecting you to help me." Sully drinks his water.

"You prefer to be dead right now?" She laughs at him.

"I guess I should thank you, huh?" He smiles.

"You guess?" She gets up, acting like she was going to hit him.

"I'm just joking." He has her sit next to him on the hospitable bed, "Thank you for saving my life. I'm really grateful you came looking for us." He takes her hand into his and he sees her getting upset.

"Everyone didn't deserve to die. Danny and Shane went out trying to save others. Trish was betrayed by someone she loved. Shae lost her family. Abby lost hers... Cal and Chloe were getting engaged. Booth was the only lucky one that died because it was an accident and not murdered by his friend."

"At least Henry and Wakefield are dead now and we know that's true." He squeezes her hand.

"Remember when Abby wouldn't kill Wakefield... I told her and Henry I'll be a killer if I had to, and Henry said I wouldn't. I said bet and I guess I proved him wrong by killing him." She tears up, "I hate that I still feel bad, Sully. I loved him like a brother and he was and I killed my brother. He deserved it, but I think it's the fact I hate hurting people's feelings even if they are a bad person and I'm not in the wrong."

"Jen..." Sully sits up more.

"The look in his eyes when I ran the blade through him... He was so hurt and I broke his heart." She sobs.

Sully grabbed her face so she would look at him, "I know it's because of the type of person you are. Like you said, you hate hurting people's feelings even if they are the bad person because then you feel bad but this is totally different. He killed our friends, Jen. He had a whole-ass elaborate plan to get us all somewhere to kill off. Don't feel bad for hurting his feelings when he hurt yours first."

A knock at the door makes Jennifer wipe her tears away as Abby and Jimmy enter the room, "How are you feeling?" Abby asks Sully.

"Okay, I get to get out of here tomorrow afternoon. Shae and Madison were here earlier. Jen told Shea everything. She thanked me for getting them off the island again" Sully tells her then looks at Jennifer looking down, "Tell her don't feel bad for killing Henry." He begs the two.

"Don't Jen... I know he was our best friend growing up and you two were even slightly closer than us, but he wasn't the Henry we thought we loved. He had to be stopped and that was the only way." Abby explains to her.

Jennifer just nods her head, "So you going to stay with Abby or?" She smiles at Jimmy.

"Umm, yeah. For the time being. What's your guys' plan?" It was his turn to smile.

"Apparently, I'm responsible for breaking his arm, so I'm expected to help him out for a while." She looks at Sully, who was nodding his head.

"Didn't she save your life?" Jimmy laughs.

"Thank you," Jennifer tells her brother.

"Don't push it, Sully. You finally got her after trying for eleven years." Abby gives him a wink.

The four spend some time together before Abby and Jimmy leave as it gets dark out and visiting hours were ending. "You're staying, right?" Sully asks as she goes through the channels.

"I'm not leaving you." She glances over at him then back at the tv.

"Come here." He pats his bed so she gets on his good side, "I love you."

"So I've heard and I love you too." She kisses him.

"Marry me," He says, making her sit up to look at him a little shocked, "Now isn't the best time to ask for many reasons. And we haven't even dated at all but I've loved since I laid eyes on you at the age of fourteen. Then tried making a move on you since we were seventeen, and then finally succeeded at the age of twenty-seven. I've learned life is too short so marry me, Jennifer."

"You're insane, you know that?" She giggles, "Our first kiss was like, what, a day ago? And now you are asking/ telling me to marry you because life is too short?"

"Exactly. You are all I want in life, Jennifer." He says, being completely serious about what he wants.

"We're not getting married on that island, Christopher Sullivan." She smiles, causing him to smile too.

"The hell we aren't, Jennifer Mance-Sullivan." He gives her a passionate kiss.

From the article:

Trump’s team was also eager to tout a Wall Street Journal op-ed endorsement this week from Sen. J.D. Vance, the populist Republican from Ohio, who touted Trump’s inclination against getting into foreign entanglements.

“Every Republican running is going to be opposed to [critical race theory]. Every Republican running is going to say we need to secure the border and we need to oppose amnesty. Every Republican running is for lower taxes and less regulation,” a Vance adviser said of Trump’s early foreign policy play. “It makes sense for Trump to drag the race where his opponents don’t want to be.”

"If Kamala wins, only death and destruction await because she is the candidate of endless wars,” declaimed Donald Trump at a rally in Michigan, on the Friday before the election. “I am the candidate of peace.” In a typically ridiculous rhetorical flourish, Trump added: “I am peace.” Nevertheless, despite the ridiculousness, the president-elect in recent weeks succeeded in connecting with plenty of of anti-war voters tired of the United States’ “forever wars”. He went to Dearborn, the “capital” of Arab America, attacked Kamala Harris for campaigning with the pro-war Cheneys, and came away with an endorsement from a local imam who called him the “peace” candidate. In fact, I have lost count of the number of leftists who have told me in recent months: “Trump didn’t start any new wars.” Sorry, what? Trump spent his four years in the White House escalating every single conflict that he inherited from Barack Obama. Many have forgotten that Trump bombed the Assad government in Syria twice; dropped the “mother of all bombs” on Afghanistan; illegally assassinated Iranian general Qasem Soleimani on Iraqi soil; armed Saudi Arabia’s genocide in Yemen; and made John Bolton his national security adviser. Few are even aware that Trump launched more drone strikes in his first two years in office than Obama, dubbed “the drone president”, did across eight years in office. But this time, we were told, it would be different. This time Trump meant it. No more war! No more neocons! Some took heart from Trump’s very public rejection of arch-hawks Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley. Others signal-boosted efforts by RFK Jr, Don Jr and Tucker Carlson to block neoconservative figures from joining the new Trump-Vance administration. “I’m on it,” bragged Trump’s eldest failson. [...] But this is the Trump playbook: run as a dove, govern as a hawk. It’s what he did in 2016 and again this year. Attack neocons; get elected; hire neocons. So “Donald the dove”, as Maureen Dowd of the New York Times once put it? If only. Whether it is on domestic policy or foreign policy, Trump remains a conman. Don’t take my word for it. Take his new secretary of state’s.

Mehdi Hasan for The Guardian on Donald Trump's deceitful lie that he is "anti-war" (11.13.2024).

Mehdi Hasan wrote an opinion piece in The Guardian debunking the nonsensical “Donald The Dove” crap that falsely pitches Donald Trump as “anti-war”, when in reality, he is as pro-war as it gets.

“We don’t take an oath to a country. We don’t take an oath to a tribe. We don’t take an oath to a king or a queen, or to a tyrant or a dictator. And we don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator.” - Mark Milley

“The president has very little understanding of what it means to be in the military, to fight ethically or to be governed by a uniform set of rules and practices.” - Richard Spencer

“President trump and other officials have repeatedly compromised our principles in pursuit of partisan advantage and personal gain.” - HR McMaster

“Donald trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people- does not even pretend to try. Instead, he tries to divide us. We are witnessing the consequences of three years of this deliberate effort.” - James Mattis

“ I have a lot of concerns about Donald trump. I have said that he’s a threat to democracy.” - Mark Esper

“ a person who admires autocrats and murderers dictators. A person who has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.”- John Kelly

“ I think the events of the capital, however, they occurred, were shocking. And it was something that, as I mentioned in my statement, I cannot put aside.”- Elaine Chao

“Unfortunately, the actions and rhetoric following the election, especially during this past week, threaten to tarnish these and other historical legacies of this administration. The attacks on the Capital were an assault on our democracy, and on the tradition of peaceful transitions of power of the United States of America, brought to the world.”- Alex Azar

“Moron.” - Rex Tillerson (re: trump, repeatedly)

“It’s more than just a bunch of papers and what big deal is this and so forth. Lives can be lost.” - Dan Coats

“I didn’t feel he did what he needed to do to stop what was happening.” -Betsy DeVos (a stupid bitch overall, but still right)

“It will always be, ‘Oh, yeah, you work for the guy who tried to overtake the government.’” - Mick Mulvaney

“The fact of the matter is he is a consummate, narcissist, and he constantly engages in reckless conduct that puts his political followers at risk and the conservative and Republican agenda at risk.” -Bill Barr

“By the time I left the White House, I was convinced he was not fit to be president… I think it is a danger for the United States if he gets a second term.” -John Bolton

“We need more seriousness, less noise, and leaders who are looking forward, not staring in the rearview mirror claiming victimhood.” - Mike Pompeo

“He asked me to put him over the Constitution, and I chose the Constitution, and I always will.” - Mike Pence

“He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again.” - Nikki Haley

Stupid. Selfish. Divisive. Authoritarian. Unserious. Tyrant. Professional Victim. Insurrectionist. Narcissist. Dangerous. Moron.

Trump’s best people sum him up.

Happy birthday to the late Rowland Stuart Howard (24 October 1959 – 30 December 2009) was an Australian rock musician, guitarist and songwriter, best known for his work with the post-punk group The Birthday Party and his subsequent solo career.

Rowland Stuart Howard was born on 24 October 1959 in Melbourne, to John Stanton Howard and Lorraine (née Stuart), the second of three children. His siblings were sister Angela Howard and brother Harry Howard, both also musicians. In a 2016 interview, his brother Harry Howard stated the family is of paternal English descent from Bolton, Lancashire and maternal Scottish descent.

Rowland Stuart Howard wrote "Shivers" at the age of 16 while in the band Young Charlatans. Howard gained acclaim after joining Melbourne-based band The Boys Next Door, when the song was released as a single. The band changed their name to The Birthday Party and Howard's discordant guitar remained a major factor in their sound. The Birthday Party relocated from Australia to London in 1980 and subsequently to West Berlin.

The Birthday Party's early records were released by Missing Link Records in Australia and 4AD Records in the UK. They later became associated with Mute Records in Europe. Howard was also a member of the short-lived project, Tuff Monks with Birthday Party bandmates, Nick Cave and Mick Harvey. However, Howard and singer Nick Cave suffered 'creative differences', and Howard left the Birthday Party as they transformed into The Bad Seeds. He soon became a member of Crime & the City Solution, a band led by Simon Bonney. Howard, with Crime & the City Solution, appeared in the 1987 movie Wings of Desire by German filmmaker Wim Wenders playing the song "Six Bells Chime" in a Berlin Club. Later he formed These Immortal Souls with girlfriend Genevieve McGuckin, brother, Harry Howard, and Epic Soundtracks.

Howard also collaborated with Lydia Lunch, Nikki Sudden, ex-Barracudas singer Jeremy Gluck, guitarist Gavin Poolman, French electro group KaS Product, Barry Adamson, Einstürzende Neubauten, guitarist Chris Haskett, The Gun Club singer and songwriter Jeffrey Lee Pierce, Fad Gadget, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Henry Rollins, and A.C. Marias.

After the release of These Immortal Souls' second album, I'm Never Gonna Die Again, (1992) and another Howard/Lunch collaboration Shotgun Wedding, Howard, Lunch and members of The Beasts Of Bourbon performed live on tour in Australia and Europe with guitarist Link Benka. Shotgun Wedding was re-released with a second compact disc of live recordings. Shotgun Wedding featured cover versions of "In My Time of Dying" and Alice Cooper's "Black Juju". Recorded in Memphis with Link Benka (rhythm guitar), Joseph -Joe- Drake (bass) and Brent Newman (aka Glyn Styler) (drums).

Howard sang backing vocals on the Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds album Let Love In (1994). In 1995 These Immortal Souls contributed their version of "You Can't Unring a Bell" to a Tom Waits tribute album Step Right Up.

In September 2007, Howard joined with Magic Dirt and Beasts of Bourbon for a tour of the east coast of Australia. Howard appeared at the All Tomorrows Parties rock festival in Australia in January 2009, curated by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. He was backed by Mick Harvey on drums, and JP Shilo on bass. Howard's second solo album, Pop Crimes, was released in October 2009 to acclaim from the musician Robert Forster. He appeared on the Magic Dirt EP White Boy playing guitar and supplying vocals on the track "Summer High".🎂

your daughter unfollowed this dogs mom right after i invited them for a tea? Anon what does this mean who unfollowed and invite who😅

Friend…

Let’s take a walk back to July 2021. On one sunny Thursday afternoon on the first of July after leaving a successful gaslighting interview with one British Vogue journalist, our “dog’s mom” aka Miss Zendaya Coleman, 24 headed to her mom’s house where she met up with her “new” curly haired beau, one Mister Tom Holland, 25 , before taking a leisurely drive on a road with a lot of stop lights, giving the perfect opportunity for the couple to engage in some PDA that was caught on camera and shared widely on July 2nd.

The reactions were immediate. There was screaming. There was crying. There was throwing up. It was madness. The world, who hadn’t had their head in the sand for the last 5 years, was introduced to the couple affectionately known as Tomdaya.

A few days later the Tom’s mother, Mrs. Nicola “Nikki” Holland of Kingston upon Thames, London, England , had afternoon tea with her close friend Mrs. {insert first name} Bolton, who’s daughter Olivia Bolton,2_ had been previously linked to Holland after being spotted and photographed almost 2 years prior on July 16th, 2019 at a London music festival. The two had what appeared to be a brief fling before Holland started being linked to many different women in the Cleveland, Ohio area.

Whatever was said at the afternoon tea must have upset the young Miss Bolton, as soon after their meal she seeked out Miss Coleman’s Instagram to hit that unfollow button.

I could no longer be a part of this madness.” — Omarosa Manigault Newman, a top aide in charge of Trump's outreach to African Americans

“I thought that he did do a lot of good during his four years. I think that his actions on January 6 and the lead-up to it, the way that he’s acted in the aftermath, and his continuation of pushing this lie that the election is stolen has made him wholly unfit to hold office every again.” — Sarah Matthews, one of Trump's deputy press secretaries, resigned after January 6th, 2021

Paring: (Christopher "Sully" Sullivan x Original Female Character Mance!)

Word Count: 2067

Warnings: slight language, death mention, betrayed

Last: Appearance | Next: Motive

Back in the main area, Jennifer thinks about her other brother she has no clue who he is. "You okay?" Danny asks her.

"He said it's part of their plan." She tells them.

"Their? He has an accomplice?" Sully asks.

"My other brother... he found him and they are bonding, making up lost time." She tells them.

"So there's someone else on this island we don't know about helping him?!" Danny panics.

"We have him locked up. No one we don't know is getting past us to help him get out." Sully tells them.

"What if-," Sully cuts Jen off.

"He's not getting out. And if he wants you he's gotta go through me first." He rubs her shoulders.

"He killed Shane, Sully for helping us girls. He strung him up over an oar... He'll kill you too." Her eyes get watery.

"If so at least it's me trying to help you." He kisses her forehead.

"Hate to ruin the moment but it's funny seeing you two like this. All lovey-dovey." Danny motions between the two.

"I don't care. Now, I'm going to see if I can fix this broken radio."

Abby arrives back at the station with Shea and Madison. Madison talks to Sully as he examines the broken radio, revealing he has knowledge of the inner workings of a radio.

"You just need a new one, I think." Madison tells him so he stops giving her a look trying not to snap at her.

"She's a child..." Jennifer puts an arm around his waist, "But there's gotta be another one somewhere on this island. There has to be." Jennifer looks at the broken one.

"If so it should shoot a beacon of light out of it so we know where it is." He looks at her.

Henry arrives moments later, announcing that Trish and Jimmy have disappeared. Shea mentions Jimmy's criminal record in the attic, causing everyone to suspect him.

"It's not him. Wakefield just told me about my other brother." Jennifer tells the others as Madison says Wakefield wanted to talk to Abby.

Sully reviews Jimmy's run-ins with Wakefield, each time surviving, and Danny suggests the head spade trap could have been set by a fisherman. Shea asks why, and Henry suggests he had been angered by Abby leaving seven years ago. Sully continues on to suggest that he had partnered with Wakefield.

"Please, guys. Just trust me; it's not Jimmy. I know that because my gut tells me." She says as Henry readies to find Trish and Jimmy enters, telling them that she fell at the bluffs.

Jimmy runs to gather supplies to rescue Trish and Henry grabs his rifle. Jimmy pleads for everyone to help Trish as they suspect him. Henry attacks Jimmy, suggesting he killed Trish, and Jimmy continues to plead for them to save her.

"Stop it!" Jennifer gets in front of Henry pushing him back. "It's not him!" She shouts at him.

"You're going to believe what Wakefield tells you?" Henry asks.

"Yes, because why would he lie to me about my other brother? He said he hasn't killed Jimmy because it's to mess with Abby and me and it makes him look suspicious to you guys." She moves to go over to Jimmy. "You aren't touching my brother." She glares at them and Henry huffs.

Abby, Jimmy, Henry, Jennifer, and Sully leave going to the bluffs and calling out for Trish. Jimmy readies the rope to climb down, and Henry suggests Jimmy pushed her off the edge.

At the bottom of the bluffs, Henry and Sully aim their guns at Jimmy, not finding Trish anywhere. Abby and Jennifer both step in front of their rifles, attempting to convince them Jimmy is innocent.

As tensions mount, Trish appears at the top of a bluff nearby. They all run to Trish, and she explains how she fell, before mentioning that she discovered a radio nearby.

Jennifer punches Sully in the chest before they follow Trish to the radio. Jimmy attempts to signal the coast guard using an emergency band. When he fails, Sully takes over attempting to fix the radio.

Sully manages to reach the Seattle coast guard, and Trish explains the situation to them. The coast guard tells her they'll be there in less than four hours, and to have someone stay by the radio.

Sully volunteers to stay with the radio, so Jennifer says she'll stay too. Henry agrees to take Trish to the Candlewick Inn for some dry clothes, and Abby decides to return to the Sheriff's Station with Jimmy.

"You're gonna regret it when Jimmy is cleared." Jennifer tells him as they were alone.

"You can't be too trusting Jen. You haven't known Jimmy for seven years. He could have snapped." He tries to explain to her.

"I know my brother and it's not him and why would Wakefield lie to me? Jimmy isn't his other kid because my dad hates I wasn't his like Jimmy was. Why can't you just trust me?" She takes his hands into hers.

"I'm scared, Jen. And I don't know who to trust. The only person I can clear is you." He tells her.

"If you love me and mean it... you'll trust me." She tells him.

"I do..."

"Then trust me, please." She begs him so he kisses her.

"Okay, I'll trust you."

"Thank you." She kisses him back.

After some time Shea and Madison arrive and informs them that Wakefield has escaped, "We think someone's helping him." Shea tells them.

"Yes, but it's not Jimmy. He never went in the back to see him in the cell so he couldn't have helped him get out." Jennifer says and looks back at Sully.

"Yeah, he's with Abby. They sent us here to find you." Shea agrees.

Sully asks about Danny, and Shea informs him that Danny fought off Wakefield to help them escape. Sully radios the coast guard again, informing them about Wakefield, and is enraged when they tell him they haven't left yet.

Sully notes the boat hanging in the boat house and decides to use it to leave. He tries to talk Jennifer into joining Shea and Madison on the boat but she refuses to go with them.

"I'm not leaving you here alone! I'm not leaving Abby, Jimmy, or Henry either! Plus, Trish is still out there." She fights him as he tries to get her to get on. "NO! I'm staying with you!" She yells.

"Fine!" He gives in as Shea heads off with Madison. "You're stupid." He tells her.

"I know, but I'm not leaving you here. We've known each other for fourteen years, and for eleven of them, you've been trying to get me... now you got me, and I'm not leaving you." She kisses him, "Let's get back to the boat house in case the others go back there. We can also let the coast guards know about Madison and Shea."

Sully radios the coast guard again, informing them of Shea and Madison's boat as Jennifer leans on his back with her arms wrapped around his shoulders as he sits at the radio and neither of them hear Henry enter.

"When the hell are you guys getting here?" Sully asks.

"I'll get back to you in a second with an ETA. Over."

"Yeah, thanks. Take your time." He puts the walkie down, "You should have gone with them." Sully sighs as Henry stays quiet walking to them slowly.

"Maybe but I wasn't leaving your side." She kisses his shoulder as Henry makes the floorboard squeak causing them to jump.

"Henry. Damn it. You scared the hell out of me. Man am I glad to see you." They huh each other.

"Did I hear right? Shea and Madison got off the island?"

"Yeah. Wakefield escape and I had to make sure they were safe. I tried to get Jennifer to go but she wouldn't go with them." Sully tells him.

"Why didn't you go with them?" Henry asks as Jennifer watches him. She hasn't exactly cared for him since he wanted to kill Jimmy. Yeah, Sully did the same but it was different and she couldn't explain it.

"And leave you?" Sully tells him.

"I...I'm impressed. Seriously. That is quite possibly the stupidest thing you've ever done."

Sully talks to the coast guard, while Jennifee watches Henry out of the corner of her eye messing with Sully's gun. Sully agrees to meet their helicopter at the marina in forty-five minutes.

"Jen, why don't you stay here in case Abby and Jimmy or even Trish come back?" Henry suggests not wanting her to go with them.

She looks at Sully not wanting to leave his side, "We'll be fine. Once we find them or if we can't, I'll come back to get you, okay?" Sully walks over to her.

"It's not just Wakefield out there... remember." She tells him scared and nervous about Henry's tiny recent actions. He was her best friend but like Sully said, who can you really trust. She course didn't want to think it was him, but she just confused with him for the past couple of hours.

"I'll be back. I promise you that. As you said, I've been trying to get you... now I got you, and I'm not leaving you." He kisses her while Henry glares at them from the side.

"Be safe, please." She kisses him back. "Henry," She gives him a head nod.

"Of course. Jenny, everything will be right once this is over." He gives her a weak smile as him and Sully leave.

As soon as the door closes, her heart drops and has a bad guy feeling about everything. No one they couldn't have known have slipped past them to help Wakefield escape.

You might already be very close to your brother; who knows?

Jennifer knew the only guys left were Sully, Henry and Jimmy. She knew 100% it wasn't Jimmy or Sully, but Henry...

Everything will be right once this is over. She hears Wakefield say it in her head and then Henry says they exact same thing to her.

"No," She rushes out of the boathouse trusting her gut.

He was the only person that made sense of you go over things. Always defending Abby and her a bit too much. He knew where Trish's dad would stand. He wanted the wedding to be on the island. Plus he locked up Wakefield.

As she was running around looking for them, she could hear a faint yell from Henry in the distance so she follows it running faster than ever.

Both guys keep calling out Trish's name as they walk around looking for her. "You know what I don't get. How Wakefield escape from that jail cell. He must have had help."

"Yeah, but who?" Sully asks.

"One of us it had to be." Henry tells him.

"Well, Jimmy wasn't anywhere near the jail and Jennifer made sure I cleared him as she gave me things to do so." Sully lets him know.

"What about Wakefield's kid? He could have done it."

"Then, he's a ghost. Cause there is no want in hell this guy slipped past us. And we know Jen didn't do it." Sully huffs.

"I locked Wakefield up. I could've slipped him the key." Henry says making Sully confused.

Sully brings up saying if this son was real that be was a wack job like his father so Henry explains he could just be really pissed about the whole thin being lied to.

"Dude. You're creeping me out." Sully stops to look back at him.

"You're right. Sorry. So you and Jennifer?" Henry changes the topic as they keep walking.

"What about it?"

"Got her to fall for your charm?" Henry shoots daggers into his head from behind.

"Turns out I didn't have to try. She said she's had a thing for me since we met. All I had to do was just be open. Why are we talking about us right now?" Sully asks confused.

"I'm just surprised seeing you two kiss. Especially her kissing you back after she said she was smart enough." Henry says so Sully glances back at him.

"She said she scared because of the type of guy I was so she can tell I've changed. Man, what we're going through has changed me and I realize some shit okay." Sully keeps walking.

In this article:

Donald Trump appeared on Fox News with anchor Bret Baier on Monday.

Baier reminded Trump he said he was going to hire the "best" people to his administration in 2016.

He then pointed out much of Trump's former administration doesn't support his 2024 White House bid.

On Monday, Donald Trump appeared on Fox News anchor Bret Baier's Special Report to discuss the classified documents he took from the White House and the case against him.

They also discussed Trump's time as president, with Baier reminding the former president that when he ran for office in 2016, he said he was  "going to surround myself with only the best and most serious people."

"Well, I did do that," Trump responded. "That's tremendous. Look, we had the best economy we've ever had, the world has ever seen."

But Baier then pointed out to the former president that many of those "best and most serious people" no longer support him:

This time, your Vice President Mike Pence is running against you. Your ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, she's running against you. Your former Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, said he's not supporting you. You mentioned National Security Adviser John Bolton. He's not supporting you either. You mentioned Attorney General Bill Barr. Says you shouldn't be president again. Calls you 'the consummate narcissist' and 'troubled man.' You recently called Barr a 'gutless pig.'"

Your second defense secretary is not supporting you. Called you irresponsible. This week, you called your White House Chief of Staff John Kelly 'weak and ineffective' and 'born with a very small brain.' You called your acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney a 'born loser.' You called your first Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, 'dumb as a rock,' and your first Defense Secretary, James Mattis, 'the world's most overrated general.' You called your White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany 'milquetoast.' And multiple times, you've referred to your Transportation secretary, Elaine Chao, as 'Mitch McConnell's China-loving wife.'

"So, why did you hire all of them in the first place?" Baier asked.

Exclusive – Mike Pompeo Shreds Nikki Haley, John Bolton over Alleged Actions During Trump Administration: ‘Too Many People Weren’t on the Team’ https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/01/29/exclusive-mike-pompeo-shreds-nikki-haley-john-bolton-alleged-actions-during-trump-administration-too-many-people-werent-team/

[influxovsnux]

1. His vice president, Mike Pence: “The American people deserve to know that President Trump asked me to put him over my oath to the Constitution. … Anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be president of the United States.”

2. His second attorney general, Bill Barr: “Someone who engaged in that kind of bullying about a process that is fundamental to our system and to our self-government shouldn’t be anywhere near the Oval Office.”

3. His first secretary of defense, James Mattis: “Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people – does not even pretend to try. Instead he tries to divide us.”

4. His second secretary of defense, Mark Esper: “I think he’s unfit for office. … He puts himself before country. His actions are all about him and not about the country. And then, of course, I believe he has integrity and character issues as well.”

5. His chairman of the joint chiefs, retired Gen. Mark Milley, seemed to invoke Trump: “We don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator. We take an oath to the Constitution and we take an oath to the idea that is America – and we’re willing to die to protect it.”

6. His first secretary of state, Rex Tillerson: “(Trump’s) understanding of global events, his understanding of global history, his understanding of US history was really limited. It’s really hard to have a conversation with someone who doesn’t even understand the concept for why we’re talking about this.”

7. His first ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley: “He used to be good on foreign policy and now he has started to walk it back and get weak in the knees when it comes to Ukraine. A terrible thing happened on January 6 and he called it a beautiful day.”

8. His presidential transition vice-chairman, Chris Christie: “Someone who I would argue now is just out for himself.”

9. His second national security adviser, HR McMaster: “We saw the absence of leadership, really anti-leadership, and what that can do to our country.”

10. His third national security adviser, John Bolton: “I believe (foreign leaders) think he is a laughing fool.”

11. His second chief of staff, John Kelly: “A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law. There is nothing more that can be said. God help us.”

12. His former acting chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, who resigned as US special envoy to Ireland after January 6, 2021: “I quit because I think he failed at being the president when we needed him to be that.”

13. One of his many former communications directors, Anthony Scaramucci: “He is the domestic terrorist of the 21st century.”

14. Another former communications director, Stephanie Grisham: “I am terrified of him running in 2024.”

15. His secretary of education, Betsy DeVos, who resigned after January 6: “When I saw what was happening on January 6 and didn’t see the president step in and do what he could have done to turn it back or slow it down or really address the situation, it was just obvious to me that I couldn’t continue.”

16. His secretary of transportation, Elaine Chao, who resigned after January 6: “At a particular point the events were such that it was impossible for me to continue, given my personal values and my philosophy.

17. His first secretary of the Navy, Richard Spencer: “…the president has very little understanding of what it means to be in the military, to fight ethically or to be governed by a uniform set of rules and practices.”

18. His first homeland security adviser, Tom Bossert: “The President undermined American democracy baselessly for months. As a result, he’s culpable for this siege, and an utter disgrace.”

19. His former personal lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen: “Donald’s an idiot.”

20. His White House lawyer, Ty Cobb: “Trump relentlessly puts forth claims that are not true.”

21. A former director of strategic communications, Alyssa Farah Griffin, who is now a CNN political commentator: “We can stand by the policies, but at this point we cannot stand by the man.”

22. A top aide in charge of his outreach to African Americans, Omarosa Manigault Newman: “Donald Trump, who would attack civil rights icons and professional athletes, who would go after grieving black widows, who would say there were good people on both sides, who endorsed an accused child molester; Donald Trump, and his decisions and his behavior, was harming the country. I could no longer be a part of this madness.”

23. A former deputy press secretary, Sarah Matthews, who resigned after January 6: “I thought that he did do a lot of good during his four years. I think that his actions on January 6 and the lead-up to it, the way that he’s acted in the aftermath, and his continuation of pushing this lie that the election is stolen has made him wholly unfit to hold office every again.”

24. His final chief of staff’s aide, Cassidy Hutchinson: “I think that Donald Trump is the most grave threat we will face to our democracy in our lifetime, and potentially in American history.”

We have to beat him in numbers to high to contest
