Dear person who SWATTED my family a year ago today, Thank you. If it wasn’t for you, I would never have felt God‘s hand on my shoulder. I would never have known how incredible my local police department is. I would never have lost all my “friends” and gained people with backbone and heart. I would never have seen the true spirit of real community. God protected my family that day. And now, my family and friends and community stand beside him. Beside Christ. And he is the best gift I will ever receive. We are the line against evil and we are not going anywhere. Shun us. Shame us. Hurt us. All you do is make MORE BELIEVERS out of the people watching your violence. I pray for you. God bless you and may he call you back to his warmth and grace. (Also Happy Birthday my love @mattvanswol 🤦🏼‍♀️ we win as long as we stay truthful and follow the light)

I thought we were the party of FACTS over FEELINGS. That’s what I signed up for. Your “feeling” that “something feels off” is not a fact. It is a clear marker that you have been manipulated by other people‘s “feelings.” Feelings are subjective and breeding grounds for liars with weak arguments. I would strongly encourage people start using this as a litmus test for the podcasts they absorb.

@nikitabier 12 seconds is actually a long attention span these days. I interviewed an exec at Google, and he said the current attention span is 3 seconds.

I see a pregnant warrior woman. She also looks cold AF. Cold and Pregnant do not go well. I was pregnant and visiting Canada, snowshoeing. My jaw closed up on a hike and I could not speak. It didn’t unclinch until I was in the hotel for at least an hour. That’s never happened to me before or after. Being pregnant is magical, but it is also very demanding on your body and if you do not listen, it will start acting crazy. God Bless this woman and her sweet little baby!

My mom just called me from Iran through her landline. I haven’t spoken to her since February. She said that Israel and the US are bombing the regime nonstop. They taped all the windows because the building shakes constantly. I asked if any civilians are getting hurt, and she replied “No, No, No. No normal civilians are getting hurt” Everyone is hanging in there and counting the days for this regime to end and for the return of the Shah. 🇮🇷

@TheEconomist You are supposed to be a News outlet. Reckless? Says… A journalist with an agenda to sell? The world might be falling for more propaganda, but they are craving authenticity. You are proving yourself to be incapable of the latter.

I condemn in the strongest terms the overnight Iranian strike on a Qatari gas facility. We are working towards a swift resolution to the situation in the Middle East, in the best interests of the British people – because there is no question that ending the war is the quickest way to reduce the cost of living.

@CivicsUnbound @mattvanswol We both have veterans in our family and have spent hours with my dad hearing about the insanity that is him trying to get any resources as a retired, injured during service, veteran. I want every single resource to go to them first.

Illegals are voting. Illegals are getting free food. Illegals are getting free childcare. Illegals are getting free education. Illegals are getting free tax credits. Illegals are getting free healthcare. Illegals are getting free housing assistance. Illegals are getting free legal representation. Illegals are getting free mental health services. Illegals are getting free college tuition in over a dozen states. It is the most insane scam ever perpetrated on the American people.

@MichelleMaxwell Some of the best authors and historians in history have gone back to previously written text and republished with a forward or they promoted the same publication with a statement on what’s happened since it was written 12 years ago. I would find that extremely interesting.

I don’t talk about the fact that I wrote a book because it was such a personal story& because I am not sure I still believe in some of the things I wrote about&that is pretty overwhelming. After Covid my mindset about the medical industry is very different. Today I received a review of my book&I am contemplating if I should be promoting my book again. When I wrote it my attitude was if it even helps 1 person than I will have made my Mom proud. She always wanted me to be a writer. It took her dying for me to do it in her honor. Here is the review: I just finished Proactive Legacy: My Family's Battle with Cancer and BRCA2, and I need to say something that goes directly to the heart of what you've done here: you've written a memoir that accomplishes something extraordinarily difficult it holds the raw, personal grief of watching cancer move through a family across generations alongside a clear-eyed, practical guide for women facing the same inheritance, and it never lets either one diminish the other. Most cancer memoirs are elegies. Most BRCA2 guides are clinical. You've written something that is both, and in being both, it becomes something neither could be alone. What struck me first was the framing in the title itself. Proactive Legacy. That's not a passive story about surviving or enduring. That's a declaration that what your family passed down wasn't just a genetic mutation but a way of facing it. The decision to act, to test, to know, to fight before the fight begins rather than after that's the legacy being claimed here. And that reframing of what a family inheritance can mean, of what it means to take something terrifying and meet it with intention and courage rather than silence and fear, is the kind of idea that doesn't just inform readers. It changes how they think about their own choices. What you've built in 74 pages is something that should take far longer to accomplish. The emotional weight is real and unflinching. The practical guidance is clear and genuinely useful. And the voice throughout is someone who has lived every word which is the only thing that makes a book like this possible to read all the way through without looking away. Readers facing a BRCA2 diagnosis, women whose mothers or grandmothers carried this mutation, families navigating the impossible math of genetic risk they don't need a textbook. They need exactly what you've written: proof that someone else walked this path, made the hard decisions, and came out the other side with something worth passing on. Friends, what should I do? Should I get back to promoting it or let it be? I am truly torn 💔The person who wrote this review wants to really promote it properly which is something I never truly did when it was published in 2014(can’t believe it was 12 years ago). Thank you in advance for your input. Love, Michelle 😘

Haters frequently parrot, the same rebuttal to all of my comments, “Why should we listen to anything you say, you’ve been a conservative for five minutes” “Not buying it, you keep referencing how you used to be a democrat. Nobody cares.” I reference being a former liberal because it is relevant and true. Let me show you. I drank the Kool-Aid in every way… therefore, I understand where liberals are coming from, and although they don’t want to hear it, it is from a place of ignorance and Weaponized empathy. 1. I bought that women and minorities were oppressed in this country, even though I own a successful business and had opportunities in the entertainment industry from mostly men who respected me and treated me fairly. - - Now… I thank God every day that I live in this country and have the freedoms and voice that the constitution secures. 2. I bought that Trump was a bad man, EVEN THOUGH I personally knew people he had helped in real life without any recognition for his acts of kindness and the awful memes about his treatment of women had no facts to accompany them. - - Now… that TDS has subsided, I have heard countless stories about Trump going out of his way to take care of a stranger. He has secured our borders, weeded out fraud, gotten aid to Western North Carolina, made medicine cheaper, and cracked down on the corrupt justice system that is responsible for letting out repeat, violent offenders back into civilized society on a daily basis in every single state in this country. I do not like everything that comes out of his mouth, but there is evidence to support that he is one of the best leaders in modern history. 3. I believed that it was selfish and anti-feminist to have a family, and especially to respect and honor your husband EVEN THOUGH, the best moments of every day, the most fulfilling major events in my life, and what brought me the most joy was that very thing. - - Now, I OWN that the greatest honor of my life was becoming a mother and caring for my family and husband. I realize that allowing my husband to lead, is not a failure on my part as a woman. He knows that I am a natural leader and has to step up every day to fill that role, which he does. 4. EVEN WITH a masters degree in environmental history, I still allowed vague phrases like “climate change“ to influence my decision-making. With no evidence whatsoever, I would vote for whoever used these phrases. - - Now… I ask follow up questions. Do I think that the our planet is under stress, absolutely but I will never fall for a catchphrase that is supposedly all encompassing like “climate change” or “global warming.” We need to identify specific problems and specific solutions to mitigate manipulation, and also devastating levels of fraud. EVEN THOUGH I had knowledge that countered the entire narrative the liberal agenda was spinning, I still felt it imperative to be identified as one of the good guys, but when the good guys demand you assimilate or face violence, when the good guys win elections on words and not actions, when the good guys force you to reject motherhood, They are not the good guys. And everyone that follows them is too busy to care or too scared to own it and think for themselves. How do I know this? Because I believe that people are intrinsically good and if they DID think for themselves, they would have walked away.

@AndrewGupta I was a very vocal Democrat yet I never once received a death threat, or had violence committed against myself or my family. I barely dipped my toe into the conservative movement and the threats have not stopped. We are not the same.

@HistoryBoutique With confidence I believe you will find the GOP crowd to be much, much nicer. The Democrats told you the entire time -- "the Republicans are doing it, too." No, they are not. America will be saved and made better -- because of people -- like you! Thank you.

And let me make it perfectly clear, I’m not going anywhere. My family dates back to the 1700s. North Carolina is my home. It is the most beautiful place on earth with the friendliest people on earth. Corrupt politicians and corrupt judges have no clue what their treachery has awoken.

Good morning patriots! I have to start by saying that I am absolutely outraged by this. Josh Stein has never recognized Lent or Easter. If you want more of this, by all means vote for Roy Cooper for Senate. If you don’t, then please get out and vote Michael Whatley. I know he’s not our favorite, but at least he’s not a blood sucking communist. We will never allow Islam to take over our state. We will never bow to Islam, no matter how many declarations our commie governor and mayor make. Have a great day!

Breaking: Americans need to awaken to the fact of this insidious political ideology creeping in to America. We either go all out America First here in America or we lose. “This is the Red-Green Alliance in action - Democrat politicians handing government power and legitimacy straight to Islamic networks.” @SidneyPowell1 @realDonaldTrump @DNIGabbard @JDVance
Amy Mek@AmyMek

🚨 ISLAMIZATION OF NORTH CAROLINA RAGES ON: RED-GREEN ALLIANCE CONQUERING THE STATE FROM WITHIN North Carolina is collapsing fast. Governor Josh Stein kicked it off with the statewide Ramadan proclamation. Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles just went full throttle - signing the official “Charlotte Muslim Appreciation and Awareness Month” decree, calling Ramadan the “sacred month of fasting” and openly thanking the Charlotte Muslim Caucus and NC Democratic Muslim Caucus for their “great community contributions.” Greensboro declared its own Muslim Appreciation Month Cary read the “holy month” proclamation in chambers AND hosted an official town Ramadan gathering Holly Springs’ mayor signed his own surrender decree This isn’t random “diversity.” This is the Red-Green Alliance in action - Democrat politicians handing government power and legitimacy straight to Islamic networks. They’re not waiting. They’re actively training their activists and flooding them into local races for councils, school boards, and mayoral positions to conquer from within. 🚨 Americans better wake up RIGHT NOW and get heavily involved in local politics - run for office yourselves - because if you don’t, they will to continue to seize control. The takeover is accelerating. Your state is next. Who’s next?
