No matter what happens in the world, no matter what *spectacle* is being broadcast at the moment, we have one objective to guide our lives: Become a saint. No matter what occurs, the deposit of faith does not change. Christ does not change. The pursuit of virtue, loving your neighbor and praying are always a path forward. Every day live Memento Mori.

If you live in KY-04 and haven't voted yet, get out and vote for @MassieforKY. Thomas is one of the few members of Congress who actually means what he says. Find your polling location here: elect.ky.gov/Voters/Pages/P…

@michaeljknowles @Mrsmmtbeauty So does this mean that Massie is trending away from the party or does this mean the party is trending away from its values?

This term, Massie has voted with the GOP 77.7% of the time. That rate is much lower than the median GOP congressman, who voted with the party 95% of the time. Massie's rate of voting with the Republicans is also lower than his own record in the last term (91%), which itself was lower than the term before that (95%). You can like Massie. You can think he's right to buck the party. But you can't deny the trend, and you can't deny the VP's observation. t.co/xSFtLEwO4P

@1ConfusedThinkr @staceydash That one got me… was confused for a moment until I re-read the dates.

@staceydash LMAO sorry but that baby pic almost could pass as 1872. 🤣

Saw this on Facebook today. Safe to say I still got it! ✨ ✝️

@raven_brah @HarrisonHSmith They look young, perhaps they’ll have children & if they do, those books will be an interesting look at mom and dad from before. But those children will wish they were part of the fun, and if those parents love their children, they’ll wish the same… those images will seem empty.

When they die, these books will be thrown in the trash by their Haitian caretaker and no one will ever remember they existed

@Sassafrass_84 4, 5, & 6 look more age appropriate to me. Showing the knees just looks childish. Past a certain age (13), I think it would do well for the mindset shift that dressing in a more dignified manner would encourage. It’s not even about modesty, more to do with embodying dignity.

If we were going for honest opinions....I am going for 3. I am a mother. I see nothing wrong with 3. There is no reason for anything shorter. Nothing longer. I live in a hot state. My kid was required to wear pants throughout her school years because knees were taboo. Knees are not taboo. There's a difference between acceptable and bs. As a parent, you should know. It shouldn't even go to school. But some schools are way too strict. I know this well. 3 is fine. Imo. You?

@Sachinettiyil Full infant Christian initiation (like eastern rites) would eliminate the debate over their clothing and confer to them all graces for their life ahead, nothing held back. Memories such as these are sweet, but a full life of simply being Fully Catholic, would be even sweeter.

That moment of going in white clothes to receive Jesus in the Eucharist for the first time at your First Holy Communion is one that often stays in memory for a lifetime. Video: St Clare School

I stand with 🇺🇸 farmers. I stand with victims of Epstein. I stand with soldiers against unnecessary war. I stand for medical freedom. I stand against inflation, wasteful spending, and foreign aid.. I always put 🇺🇸 first. and this upsets the swamp, but so be it.

The American middle class is reaching a terrifying realization: You can do everything right and still lose. Budget. Work overtime. Cook at home. Pay debt down. Then insurance doubles. Utilities spike. Groceries jump again. And suddenly you’re drowning anyway.

Before 1961, premature babies with failing lungs had almost no chance—doctors could only watch them slip away. Then one woman refused to accept that and changed medicine forever. Picture a hospital nursery in 1960. A baby born two months early struggles to breathe. Her tiny chest rises and falls in desperate effort. Her skin turns blue. Nurses and doctors gather around her, but they have nothing to offer. In a matter of hours, maybe less, she will be gone. This scene repeated itself thousands of times each year. Respiratory Distress Syndrome was a death sentence for premature infants. Their lungs were not developed enough to function. Medical textbooks described it as unavoidable. But Mildred Stahlman refused to accept unavoidable. Born in 1922 in Nashville, Mildred was not expected to become a doctor. Her affluent family imagined a traditional Southern life for her. But at eleven, she received a microscope—and everything changed. She fought her way into Vanderbilt Medical School as one of only four women in a class of fifty. She studied abroad in Sweden at leading institutes. She returned home in 1951 and began witnessing the same tragedy again and again—infants dying because no one knew how to help them breathe. And she made a decision: this would not continue. In a small lab beside the Vanderbilt nursery, Stahlman began doing what seemed impossible. She took large adult breathing machines and redesigned them for the smallest patients. She created tiny airway tubes no wider than a straw. She developed methods to monitor oxygen levels in real time. Her colleagues doubted her. The technology did not exist. The risks were severe. A single mistake could damage fragile lungs beyond repair. Stahlman continued anyway. October 31, 1961. A baby girl named Martha Humphreys was born two months early. She could not breathe. Without intervention, she had only hours to live. Dr. Stahlman placed her into the miniature respirator she had built. The machine gently expanded the baby’s chest, helping air reach lungs that could not function on their own. Then Stahlman set up a folding bed beside the machine and stayed, watching every breath. Four days later, Martha was breathing on her own. What had once been impossible was now real. But Stahlman did not stop there. She established one of the first neonatal intensive care units in the United States. She trained specialists from around the world. She developed systems to transport critically ill newborns. She created standards of care that continue to guide medicine today. "If you’re going to practice medicine," she told her students, "the first thing you must learn is charity—unconditional love." She lived by those words. Her team tracked not only medical data but family needs—where they lived, what they could afford, what support they required. Every child mattered. Every family mattered. Dr. Stahlman continued her work for decades. At 101, she was still advocating for premature infants when she passed away in June 2024. And Martha Humphreys, the first baby she saved? She grew up healthy. She married, becoming Martha Lott. And then she made a decision that brought the story full circle. Martha became a nurse in the very same neonatal intensive care unit where her life had been saved. The child who should have died in 1961 spent her life in that room, helping save others. Today, hundreds of thousands of premature infants survive every year in NICUs around the world. Many of them owe their lives to the work that began with one determined doctor who refused to accept limits. The next time you hear about a premature baby surviving against the odds, remember: someone once decided that those odds could change. Someone refused to accept that small lives should be lost. Someone redefined what was possible.

The DOJ has ONE WEEK left to charge Anthony Fauci for the worst cover-up in modern medical history. He lied to Congress about funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Millions died. Trillions were spent. And Fauci walked away with book deals and fawning media coverage instead of handcuffs. I re-upped my criminal referral to the DOJ because the evidence is overwhelming, and justice has been delayed long enough. RT if you’re ready to see Fauci behind bars.

@DrWojakMD @WallStreetApes It’s like they’ve stir it up on nonsense for so long to get the majority of people to become tired of the climate topic so that maybe they won’t pay attention and the people who’ve been loud all these years really only bark at what they’re trained to bark at. Misdirection.

@WallStreetApes Funny how talk about climate change got a lot quieter just as AI’s massive data center energy demands ramped up.

Here’s how this Data Center’s generators starts up in the morning in Florida Notice the constant stream of heavy black smoke Remember just a couple years ago when using electricity and diesel caused climate change, now data centers use as much power as cities and its no problem

The home-educated typically score 15 to 25 percentile points above public-school students on standardized academic achievement tests (Ray, 2010, 2015, 2017; Ray & Hoelzle, 2024). (The public school average is roughly the 50th percentile; scores range from 1 to 99.) A 2015 study found Black homeschool students to be scoring 23 to 42 percentile points above Black public school students (Ray, 2015). 78% of peer-reviewed studies on academic achievement show homeschool students perform statistically significantly better than those in institutional schools (Ray, 2017) Homeschool students score above average on achievement tests regardless of their parents’ level of formal education or their family’s household income. (Ray, 2013, 2010) Whether homeschool parents were ever certified teachers is not notably related to their children’s academic achievement. Degree of state control and regulation of homeschooling is not related to academic achievement. (Ray, 2013, 2010) Home-educated students typically score above average on the SAT and ACT tests that colleges consider for admissions. (Read more here.) Homeschool students are increasingly being actively recruited by colleges. nheri.org/research-facts… #Academic #homeschool

You and others claiming that people criticize her even when she stays home… I don’t think she has once stayed home long enough for anyone to criticize that. But really, I was extremely sympathetic to her in the days after Charlie’s Assassination. I’d not really seen her before that but I cried for her, I couldn’t imagine going through that. Then I found some of her appearances strange… but gave it a pass, who am I to judge and all that. But it just kept going and I don’t keep up with whatever debate there is about her, I don’t have the time for it… but everytime I do see her, I just simply find her weird and cringe. She’s just not public figure material. I don’t think she should be the face of TPUSA, and I think she’s hurting the organization, PR nightmare. I’m just tired of seeing her. I think she should step away from the limelight and just focus on raising her kids and that doesn’t mean she can’t be making decisions on TPUSA behind the scenes.

When she goes to events, you demand she stays home. When she stays home, you question her motives. Whether she laughs, cries, or shows anger, it’s always too much or not enough. Erika’s not only ruthlessly condemned, she’s relentlessly mocked as if she’s not a real person navigating massive loss. Yes, she’s a public figure, and as such she will receive critiques and questions. But if you can’t do that without hostility, without dehumanizing her, you’ve got a soul-level sickness that needs to be addressed.

@MrsErikaKirk @seanmdav Go home. Raise your kids.

I went to the White House Correspondents Dinner for one reason. Too many journalists have done everything they can to dehumanize me for months, and I wanted to look them in the eye.

I was also homeschooled beginning in 6th grade. I still had my public school friends and the powers of observation. Was it the worst? For some no, for other yes. In general, I observe that most people simply never question the status quo and could never imagine how things might be different or better.

@nickitruesdell If you missed middle school and high school, then how do you know it is the worst?

Middle school in America is roughly 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. If you went to public school, you may remember this as the worst, most awkward time of your school career. I was homeschooled beginning in 6th grade. Thankfully, I missed all of that. As a mom of five homeschooled kids, I’m thankful that all of my children have missed that, too. Homeschooling is a gift to your children.

They convinced an entire generation that living with family is failure. Family compounds used to be normal. Until the psyop began. We were told: • Move out at 18 • Be independent • Get your own place • Do everything alone Result: • 10 rents • 10 mortgages • 10 car payments • 10x more debt Strong families used to stay together—build together, support each other, and live interdependently. The opposite of the "be independent" narrative. Let's normalize family compounds again.

Our founding fathers never even considered the possibility that illiterate third world women would one day be shipped into this country and then elected to congress. We are discovering a method of national suicide that never entered the minds of the founders.

@MrsErikaKirk Girl. Go home. Stay home. Be there for your children. Raise them. You’re correct. Enough is enough and none of this is enough for you to prioritize fame or politics over being a present mother to those very young children.

Saturday was yet another traumatic example of the evil in our country and the continued rise in political violence. I’m taking time to spend with my family. I will be joining The Charlie Kirk Show Wednesday at 12PM ET to briefly address what took place. Enough is enough.
