@mattvanswol One of MANY reasons I NEVER go to downtown Raleigh & why businesses are leaving. Never forget when Roy Cooper protested with BLM & the then Democrat mayor of Raleigh told police to stand down as businesses were vandalized in 2020.

🚨#BREAKING: A MASS ST*BBING EVENT HAS TAKEN PLACE OVERNIGHT IN DOWNTOWN RALEIGH NC. AT LEAST SIX PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HOSPITALIZED WITH ST*B WOUNDS Please pray for the victims, we DO NOT have to keep living like this!!!

@TaperChartist @mattvanswol Liberals have ruined the city I have lived in my entire life. It only got worse when the police were told to stand down during the BLM riots of 2020 & the then governor marched with them. Same guy (Cooper) now running for Senate!

@mattvanswol How has NC all of a sudden turned in to Chicago? What’s going on?!

@atensnut Kevin & Kurt!

Who was most handsome back then! Me: Mel Gibson

I'm just a regular American guy. I work hard, pay my taxes, coach my kids’ teams, go to church on Sunday, and love this country with everything I’ve got. I’m not a politician. I’m not famous. I’m just one of millions of us who are sick and tired of watching everything we built get torn down. I’m sick and tired of grown men in dresses being celebrated while little girls are told they’re “bigoted” for wanting privacy in the locker room. I'm sick and tired of America getting pimped out by it's own people. I'm sick and tired of watching people who hate my country elect people who hate my country. I’m sick and tired of grooming disguised as “inclusion” and “pride.” I’m sick and tired of radical Islam being protected and imported. I’m sick and tired of watching our politicians bend over backwards for people who don’t even want to be here. I’m sick and tired of 90% of the clowns in Washington on both sides who hate us, mock us, and spend our money like it’s theirs. I’m sick and tired of the rules that only apply to us while they live like kings and tell us we’re the problem. I’m sick and tired of feeling like the country I grew up in is being deliberately replaced and I’m supposed to shut up and smile about it. I'm sick and tired of Mitch McConnell's stroke face, Nancy Pelosi's Botox smile, Shri Thanedar's 7-11 accent, and having to look at the shine on Ayana Pressley's bald f'n head. I’m sick and tired of politicians promising the world, delivering nothing, and then blaming us for being frustrated. I’m sick and tired of drag queen story hour being called “family friendly” while a normal dad coaching baseball gets labeled toxic masculinity. I’m sick and tired of hearing “love is love” right up until someone wants to love their own culture and traditions without apology. I am sick and tired of seeing "rainbow everything" everywhere I go in June. I am sick and tired of being told how to live my life by people who belong in an insane asylum. People like me, people like you just want to be left alone. We want to wake up, work hard, chase the American Dream, provide for our families, and go to bed knowing our kids are safe and not being indoctrinated. We want to love God without apology. Love our wives and husbands, raise strong sons and daughters who know right from wrong. We want to grill in the backyard, fly the flag, and continue to live free in the greatest country on earth. That’s it. No special treatment. No parades. No apologies. Just the simple life our parents and grandparents fought for. We’re not asking for the moon. We’re asking to keep what made America great in the first place. If you’re reading this and every word just hit you in the chest…you’re not crazy. You’re not alone. You’re not wrong. You're just a pissed off freedom-loving American patriot. Welcome to the f'n club. MAGA forever.

@mattvanswol @CynicalPublius Yes, please! More of your photographs!

A lot of people don’t know this about me… …but long before I was on X, I was a landscape photographer and got to travel the world taking photos for some amazing companies. I have huge stashes of landscape photos, maybe I should post them. I love seeing them in my timeline ❤️

📸REDWOODS PHOTOGRAPHY BREAK📸 Seeing as Mrs. Dr. Publius is on a redwoods binge, this is one of my favorite shots from our many hikes in California's redwoods forests. This is from Wunderlich County Park, near Woodside, CA, just a few hundred meters from Neil Young's heavily guarded private estate. 😉 Olympus E-P1, Lumix 20mm, f/1.7, 1/60th, ISO 800, handheld.

You want to know what this is actually about? It's not about TSA workers. It's not about airport lines. This entire crisis exists because Democrats do not want to deport illegal aliens. That's it. That's the whole thing. ICE was doing its job and then Democrats lost their minds. They attached a laundry list of demands to gut enforcement with new rules designed to make deportations harder. And then they held TSA paychecks hostage until they got what they wanted. THEY started this. Not Trump. Not Republicans. Democrats decided that protecting people who are here illegally was worth more than paying the agents screening your luggage. OWN IT. And then ON TOP OF THAT... they have the audacity to call it a "funding fight." No, it's not a funding fight. The Senate voted five times to advance a clean DHS bill that would have paid TSA workers immediately. FIVE TIMES. Democrats blocked it every single damn time. Yes, Trump killed the Thune compromise. Democrats are furious about it because for the first time in a month someone finally did to them what they'd been doing to everyone else. Using leverage. Democrats didn't come to the table to fund TSA. They came to extract ICE policy concessions. They were holding 61,000 federal workers' paychecks as the ransom to protect people who shouldn't be here. That's a hostage situation. Trump playing the same game as Democrats have always done just makes you furious. The SAVE Act "voter suppression" line is the most cynical thing in a post full of cynical things. Yes, noncitizen voting is already illegal. The bill addresses VERIFICATION at the point of registration. You know, where the law is actually enforced. 83% of Americans support requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote. INCLUDING A MAJORITY OF DEMOCRATS. This whole post is a masterclass in misdirection. The actual story is simple as hell. >Democrats want open borders. >ICE got in the way. >Democrats decided to blow up DHS funding to slow ICE down. >TSA workers got caught in the crossfire. >And now they're blaming Trump for the fire they set. That's it. That's the whole damn thing.

I think it's hilarious that so many Democrats are offended by President Trump using the word "retard". Well... I am offended by people who disrespect our flag. I am offended by people who say “follow the science” but believe puberty blockers for 10-year-olds are perfectly safe. I am offended by the media that spent four years calling Hunter’s laptop “Russian disinformation” and then quietly admitted it was real. I am offended by Hillary getting away with deleting 33,000 emails. I am offended by men competing in women's sports and shattering records. I am offended by drag queens reading to little kids in libraries. I am offended by teachers pushing gender ideology instead of teaching math and history. I am offended by "people" wearing pink vagina hats. I am offended by the legacy media lying 24/7. I am offended by climate scams and sanctuary cities protecting criminals over citizens. I'm offended by Schiff, Pelosi, Waters and Newsom getting reelected year after year while their streets have shit and needles in them. I am offended by the two-tiered justice system letting elites skate free. I am offended by daily sermons from out-of-touch celebrities in Hollywood. I am offended by attacks on free speech and my right to bear arms. I am offended by every foreign born politician currently holding office in government. I am offended by people who call President Trump “literally Hitler” but have zero problem with Antifa and BLM burning down cities for an entire summer. I am offended by Democrats who scream “my body, my choice” but want to force you to take a vaccine or lose your job. I am offended by Jasmine Crockett's eyelashes, AOC's horse face, and JB Pritzker's waistline. I am offended by Harry Sisson's lack of testosterone. I am offended that our country was run by an f'n autopen. I am offended at the lack of balls by Democrat men and the overabundance of them by Democrat women. But above all? I'm offended that the same crowd melting down over one edgy word spent years trying to erase biology, borders, merit, history, and basic reality then calls me the monster for pointing it out. Scream your outrage. I'll keep calling bullshit, loving my country, protecting my family, and laughing at the clown show. Because if your entire identity is being "offended" by reality, then maybe the real retard is the one who thinks feelings beat facts. MAGA forever.

I'm old enough to remember when Trump had COVID and the left was praying that he died! I'm old enough to remember when his brother died and the left was saying that the wrong one died! I'm old enough to remember when the left was outraged Trump turned his head! So please save me the bullshit over him being glad his tormentor is dead!

What the actual hell is wrong with you?! You are shutting down the United States government to protect illegal aliens from deportation. Say that out loud. Because that is what you are doing. That is the hill you chose. Not healthcare. Not veterans. Not infrastructure. You are holding this government hostage because you do not want ICE removing people who are here illegally. That is your cause. That is your line in the sand. Illegal aliens staying in America matters more to you than the American government functioning. Federal workers not getting paid. Government services grinding to a halt. Real Americans feeling real pain in their real lives. And you are fine with all of it, as long as deportations stop. You made that trade on purpose. You looked at both options and chose this. And we know exactly who you are because we have seen it up close. You could not stand up for a statement saying the American government should work for Americans first. You sat there. Silent. You could not stand up for a little girl who was hit by an illegal alien truck driver. You sat there again. You cannot say America comes first. You cannot stand for an injured child. But you will burn down the government to keep illegal aliens here. That is not a coincidence. That is a value system. Yours. And you are showing it to the whole country right now in the clearest possible way. These are not undocumented neighbors. These are people who violated federal law to enter this country. ICE exists to enforce that law. Deportation is the legal consequence. This is not complicated and it is not cruel. It is the law working exactly the way it is supposed to work. You are not a humanitarian. You are a politician shutting down the government for people who cannot legally vote for you. So the question every American should be screaming right now is simple… …maybe the reason you are doing this, is you know you cannot get elected without them Maybe cheating is the only way Democrats win.

I’m sick and tired of it all. I’m sick and tired of traitors wearing suits and smiles while they sell us out. Sick and tired of Candace Owens turning every headline into her personal drama tour. Sick and tired of hearing about Joe Kent, somebody I’d never heard of three days ago. I’m tired of MTG's Botox sunburnt face and that cheap boxed bleach job she runs through her hair every six weeks. Tired of Thomas Massie’s Jerry curls looking like he just rolled out of a 70s porn set. Tired of Tucker Carlson and that weird thousand-yard stare he does like he’s reading your soul. And this ain’t just a Republican problem. I’m calling balls and strikes on everybody. I’m sick and tired of the Krassensteins flooding my feed with their cry-baby rage-bait, racking up hundreds of thousands of impressions while the rest of us grind. Tired of seeing JoJoFromJerz's face caked in enough makeup to spackle a house. Tired of seeing that thing on Ilhan Omar’s head. Tired of Jasmine Crockett’s non-stop loud mouth and AOC’s horse face lecturing me about “systemic” everything while she flies first class. I’m sick and tired of people who break the actual law never seeing the inside of a jail cell. Fraudsters, corrupt politicians, pedophiles on the Epstein list. I’m sick and tired of hearing “no one is above the law” when it’s crystal clear that everyone is above the law except you and me. I’m tired of good things happening to bad people. Tired of the worst accounts on X blowing up while honest voices and talent gets buried. Tired of Hollywood elites and late-night “comedians” telling me how to live while they snort coke in mansions. Tired of corporate suits pushing DEI quotas that punish hard work and reward skin color. Tired of teachers in schools sneaking in agendas instead of teaching real history. I’m sick and tired of people telling me to live my life a certain way so I don’t “offend” folks with mental illness. Biology isn’t bigotry, and I’m not rewriting reality to make anyone feel special. But what I’m sick and tired of the MOST…are the people who hate America. The ones who burn the flag, kneel for the anthem, and scream that this country was founded on “stolen land” and “oppression.” The ones who flood across our border, take our benefits, wave their own flags, and then trash the greatest nation God ever gave man. The ones in Congress who call America “racist” while cashing taxpayer checks. The so-called journalists who apologize for every American achievement like it’s a crime to be exceptional. These America-haters don’t love freedom, they fear it. They don’t want opportunity, they want equality of misery. They push socialism in our schools, woke nonsense in our military, and shame in our hearts because a strong, proud America stands in the way of their globalist wet dream. Well I’m here to tell you... I love this country with every fiber of my being. I love the dirt in my backyard, the fireworks on the Fourth, the smell of barbecue on a summer night, and the fact that my three kids can still dream bigger than anywhere else on Earth. I love the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the flag that flies over my house, and the men and women in uniform who’ve kept us free. I love that we’re the only nation on the planet dumb enough and brave enough to say “give me liberty or give me death” and actually mean it. I’m done being polite about it all. I’ll keep writing, keep voting, keep raising my kids right, and keep standing for the greatest experiment in human freedom the world has ever known. Because if loving America makes me the bad guy…then lock me up with the rest of the patriots. I’m sick and tired of the haters. But I’ll never be tired of this country. MAGA forever.

@atensnut I mean, who can’t stop & dance when you hear this song?😊

Missed this last night. Sharing now for your morning entertainment.

@BuzzPatterson I’m from the south - deviled eggs are a staple for every family gathering, every football tailgate and any other event/excuse you can come up with!

My wife loves them. I don’t. 🤣

@LangmanVince Was it flattering? No. But dang she has great hair!

Is that the type of dress 80-year-old Goldie Hawn should be wearing?

@BuzzPatterson Waylon Jennings & Kris Kristofferson - together. So many more. Like you, I need to write a book!🤣

The original Lynyrd Skynyrd.

The infighting on the right is making it SO MUCH EASIER for the left. What exactly is going on with Candace, Tucker, Ben, Mark, Megyn.. etc? #news #right #infighting #midterms

@4thOfJuly365 My son definitely met his “real” mom on several of these occasions!! Glad he & I survived those moments! Dad became an expert project creator though.

This meme is rated R for relatable.

@mattvanswol @ThrillaRilla369 I left a secure job after 16 years to be home & present during my only child’s high school years. Best decision I ever made! I did start my own business but life was then on my terms. Now I get to help with my grandchild’s care instead of strangers.

Nobody wants to say it out loud but a lot of moms REALLY don't actually want to be at work 40 hours a week. They want to be home with their kids. They were just told that wanting that makes them not successful human beings. A huge, evil lie. We convinced an entire generation of women that the most fulfilling thing they could do was sit at a desk for someone else's company while a stranger raises their kid. Oh, and if you questioned that, you were somehow anti-woman. And then we wonder why kids are anxious, medicated and are struggling in the real world. They were raised by rotating daycare staff and iPads because both parents were too exhausted from working to pay for the daycare to actually parent. I know many families that now have just made the FINANCIAL choice for one parent to stay home, just because daycares costs so much, it's not worth the other parent working. The most important job in the world is raising a stable, healthy, grounded human being. We used to believe that as a society... not sure what happened. Stay home if you can. Stay married if you can. Build something that actually lasts. Your kids will thank you for it. Your grandkids will thank you for it too ❤️

It's wild how society accepts leaving kids at daycare 40 hours a week just to commute to a job that funds the daycare, the car, and a house you're rarely in. We're basically grinding to pay for a life we barely get to experience.

@mattvanswol It shouldn’t be but it is. I was at a stoplight this week & a car went around me to go through the red light. Thankfully no one was driving through on their green light. I sat there shocked.

Just drove 7 minutes to the grocery store. Car 1: phone on the steering wheel. Car 2: ran a stop sign, eyes never left the screen. Car 3: swerved toward the curb mid-scroll. Car 4: sat through a green light with a kid in the back Seven. Minutes. How is this just… normal now?

@ksorbs @Riley_Gaines_ Thank you for posting this. I have a full stop with so called Christians who are pro-choice & the main reason I left organized religion (cradle Episcopalian here).

There is no such thing as a pro-choice Christian
