Congress allowed this Orwellian mandate to become law. A group of us in the House tried to stop it. Americans want freedom, not remote controls and mass surveillance. We must move to repeal this mandate before 2027.

Hard times create strong men. Watching Pete Hegseth rise to stand while everyone else cowered, shielding his wife and ready to jump to action & Stephen Miller immediately wrap himself around his pregnant wife provides the clearest possible picture for our culture why masculinity matters. More of this, young men.

You can tell a lot about a man about how they instinctively respond when it hits the fan. In this photo, Stephen Miller moves on top of his pregnant wife to protect her. Pete Hegseth stands over his wife, surveying the scene while leaning over, protecting her.

Taco Bell (1962-2022): It's slop, but it's cheap Taco Bell (2023-present): What if we sold the same slop for a much higher price?

@WallStreetApes An all too common experience: paying extra for a tiny cup of a sauce or condiment that should be included at no charge, and then they won’t even fill it all the way. Do that once, and I’m never going back.

American wanted extra cheese on her Taco Bell tocos. She didn’t get it, so she went up and bought an extra cheese cup The cup is not filled all the way, she asked the to fill it The employees say they aren’t allowed to. The price for this small cup was .55 cents I ran the image through artificial intelligence, this is roughly 2 cents That is a 2,650% markup Some of the largest operators of Taco Bell franchise locations are owned by private equity firms Just since 2019 menu prices have risen 57–81% at Taco Bell

The social conservatives in 1992 were right about literally everything. They've been vindicated on every single point without exception. If you see conservatism in 1992 as the dark ages then, again, you're just a liberal.

@AceRod13 @catholicpat To the contrary, help from churches and pro life organizations is widely available for those in crisis pregnancies. Adoption services are also available. And no, you can’t kill babies, even if you were raped. Evil does not justify further evil.

@BenThaxted @catholicpat That’s not the logic. The logic is more like “I was raped and don’t want the baby” “You can’t kill babies!” “Will you help me take care of this baby? I can’t afford a child” “Go fuck yourself”

@maggiemoda I got married at my church. That was like a $200 honorarium for the clergy. Then we had the reception in the church social hall, which was another $150 to cover insurance. We had it catered by a local BBQ joint. About $1500 for 120 guests. Had friends help us with the decor.

@kerrydougherty I guess it’s easier to arrest veterans / citizens than to actually lock away the criminals causing problems. If VB arrested the criminals and threw the book at them, others would get the message.

@AssocAnderson Only way to fix this is to both arrest AND PROSECUTE for criminal behavior.

This is on Atlantic Ave up around 35th/36th st near Mellow Mushroom, warm late April Saturday night 3 hours BEFORE the curfew…normally bustling with car & foot traffic, instead tumble weeds What a disaster…. Looks like a scene from the Walking Dead.
