You decide!!! No Kings explained for people who think they're fighting fascism. You're standing in a crowd on Saturday. You look around and think yeah. No Kings. This is what democracy looks like. Bro. You're holding a sign made by a communist billionaire who lives in Shanghai. You live in a constitutional republic. Elections. Term limits. A free press that spent four years calling the president a fascist without one journalist being arrested. The modern left's definition of fascism: You love your country? Fascist. You want to enforce the border? Racist. You think parents should raise their kids? Bigot. You want to know who's voting in your elections? Jim Crow. Being patriotic is fascism to the modern left. But every country has borders and enforces them. 176 countries require ID to vote. That's the definition of a country. But the Democratic establishment told you otherwise. And you believed them. Congress has a 15% approval rating. 80% of Americans disapprove. 97% of incumbents got re-elected. Chuck Schumer. 46 years. Longer than Stalin. Steny Hoyer. 45 years. Longer than Mao. Mitch McConnell. 42 years. 5x more than Napoleon. Nancy Pelosi. 39 years. Longer than Henry VIII. Maxine Waters. 35 years. Longer than Mussolini. Bernie Sanders. 35 years. Triple Hitler's entire reign. Trump. 5 years and 3 months. Won the popular vote and the electoral vote. But Trump is the king. Okay buddy. You don't hate kings. You hate kings that aren't yours. And Saturday they had you in the streets carrying their water. The Democratic Party installed a president without letting you vote. Biden quit on a Sunday. By Tuesday your queen was crowned. No primary. No debate. No ballot. First time since 1968. Three days before your march every Senate Democrat voted against photo ID to vote. During COVID you carried a vaccine card everywhere like a hall pass from the government just to eat at a restaurant. But getting a birth certificate or waiting two hours at the DMV to prove you're a citizen before you vote? That's oppression. The Democratic Party is pro illegal immigration. Counts non-citizens in the Census. Census determines congressional seats. More non-citizens means more seats means more power. No voter ID means no way to check. That's how you keep power without wearing a crown. Biden built a censorship machine. Pressured Facebook to suppress true information and admitted it in writing. Censored scientists. Censored doctors. Censored JOKES. The Biden White House told Facebook to remove "humor and satire." They literally went after people for making fun of them. UK does it better tho... Everything they censored turned out to be right. They just outsourced the silencing to Silicon Valley. And it doesn't stop at speech. The extreme left justifies taking children from families. Six thousand schools rewrite children's identities without telling parents. And the State has the right to intervene. The Hitler Youth did this. Mao's Red Guards did this. The Soviets built statues of a child who reported his own father. Same playbook. During Covid, your bakery got shut down. Church closed. You couldn't hold your dying mother's hand at the hospital. But thousands packed together during BLM to burn Minneapolis and THAT was essential civic engagement. Obviously. $2 billion in damage. 25 dead. 2,000 cops injured. 20 states burning. VP Kamala promoted a bail fund for the rioters. No investigation. No hearings. January 6. One building. Few hours. 1,000 prosecuted. Two years of televised hearings. Kings decide which violence counts. The left decided. Charlie Kirk spent his life walking onto campuses asking for honest debate. He was assassinated. CSIS terrorism database. 2025 is the first year in 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber right-wing. Yet no one brings this up. 75% of liberal students say preventing a speaker from talking is justified. 27% say violence is acceptable.

President Trump didn’t tweet. He launched a kinetic strike from orbit. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz...freshly installed steward of a hollow Reich...had the gall to whine that America was “humiliated” by Iran. Trump’s reply was surgical, lethal, and dripping with the contempt these continentals have earned for seventy years: “The Chancellor of Germany should spend more time on ending the war with Russia/Ukraine (Where he has been totally ineffective!), and fixing his broken Country, especially Immigration and Energy, and less time on interfering with those that are getting rid of the Iran Nuclear threat, thereby making the World, including Germany, a safer place!” Boom. The mask slipped. The vassal state that can’t keep the lights on, can’t seal its borders from the Third World tide, and can’t even pretend to deter Putin suddenly lectures the only adult in the room about “humiliation.” Fuck you, Merz. Fuck the entire post-1945 European pathology that produced you. Let’s speak the truth these salons will never stomach. Psychology of the Cuckold Continent. Europe isn’t just weak; it is pathologically dependent. Post-WWII, we pumped the Marshall Plan into a continent that had gutted itself twice in thirty years. We gave them the nuclear umbrella, the 70-plus percent of NATO’s actual combat power, the logistics backbone that lets their militaries play dress-up. In return they cultivated a psychic complex: moral superiority married to strategic impotence. It’s battered-spouse syndrome in reverse...the wife (America) keeps handing over the paycheck while the degenerate husband (Europe) drinks, cheats, lectures, and resents the very hand that feeds him. They hate us because we expose their castration. Every American strike that actually neutralizes a threat...whether Soleimani, bin Laden, or now the Iranian nuclear program...reminds them they lack the will, the balls, and the arsenal to do it themselves. Historical Betrayal on Steroids. NATO was forged to stop Stalin’s hordes from rolling to the Channel. Fine. Mission accomplished in 1991. What followed was the greatest strategic grift in history: Europe deliberately demilitarized, offshored its energy security to Putin’s pipelines, opened the gates to mass Islamic migration that now runs its no-go zones, and then had the nerve to call America “unilateralist” every time we lifted a finger. Germany...yes, the same Germany that once fielded Wehrmacht panzers...now fields a Bundeswehr that can barely muster a brigade without American airlift, fuel, and ammo. Their energy policy is a green suicide cult. Their immigration policy is national suicide by demography. And still they posture as the adults in the room. Military and Geopolitical Reality Check. The United States subsidizes European defense so Berlin and Paris can virtue-signal about climate accords and lecture us on “rules-based order” while Iranian proxies swarm the Red Sea and Russian artillery turns Ukrainian fields into moonscapes. Trump just reminded the world: when America moves against an existential nuclear threat, the planet...including the Euro-cucks...gets safer whether they like it or not. Merz’s bleating is projection. Germany is humiliated daily...by its own impotence, its own demographic replacement, its own energy poverty. The only humiliation America suffers is the self-inflicted kind: staying married to this welfare queen alliance. We are the abused wife who keeps coming back with fresh bruises and a new credit card. “But the kids!” they cry...meaning their precious European social model built on American blood and treasure. Bullshit. The kids grew up spoiled, soft, and sneering. Time for the divorce. GET THE FUCK OUT OF NATO. Let the continent that invented total war face the wolves it invited. Let Germany discover what actual security costs when the American ATM is closed and the 101st Airborne isn’t riding to the rescue. America First isn’t isolationism...it’s sanity. We will keep the seas open, the nukes ready, and the homeland defended. But subsidizing effete ingrates who piss on our boots while demanding we bleed for their mistakes? That era ends now. Trump sees it. The American people are waking to it. Europe had seventy years of the free ride. The bill is due. Pay it yourselves...or watch the house burn while you lecture the firemen on their tone. 💀

No British government ever imagined an American president might finally tell the truth about the “special relationship.” Until now. Spare me the pearl-clutching obituary from The Economist, that decaying salon of transatlantic nostalgia where the ghost of Churchill is still being pimped out like a rent-boy for Davos subscriptions. Your precious bunting of flags in the bin isn’t some tragic metaphor for Trump’s “betrayal.” It’s the autopsy photo of a one-way parasitic bargain that America has carried on its back like a drunk uncle for eighty goddamn years. And the drunk finally woke up, looked around, and said: Fuck this. This isn’t “turning his back.” This is a sovereign nation refusing to keep subsidizing a continent of strategic eunuchs who have spent decades castrating their own militaries, hollowing out their industrial bases, and importing the very pathologies that make them security liabilities rather than allies. You want the special relationship? Earn it. Reciprocate it. Stop treating the United States like an ATM with nuclear weapons. Geopolitically and militarily, the numbers don’t lie and they never have. The United States still shoulders roughly sixty percent of total NATO defense spending...$845 billion out of a collective $1.4 trillion last year. Most of your European “partners” couldn’t hit the 2% GDP target even after Russia parked tanks on Ukraine’s border and started lobbing missiles at civilian infrastructure. Britain under Starmer talks a big game about “global Britain” while quietly slashing capability, courting CCP-linked cash, and letting its own streets burn under the weight of demographic transformation and speech codes that make the old East German Stasi look libertarian. You lecture us about values while your own government criminalizes tweets and turns Rotherham into a cautionary tale the media still refuses to fully autopsy. Historically, the ledger is even more damning. We bled for you in 1917 and 1941 when your empires were on the ropes. We bankrolled your reconstruction, anchored your defense for the entire Cold War, and let you punch above your weight on the world stage because sentimental Anglosphere nostalgia still meant something. In return? Suez 1956, where you expected us to back imperial nostalgia while we were trying to contain Soviet expansion. Vietnam, where you sat it out. Iraq, where you half-assed it and then spent the next twenty years sneering at us in your broadsheets. And every single time an American president dared put America First, your commentariat wailed like Victorian widows about the death of the alliance...as if the alliance was ever meant to be a suicide pact. You’ve internalized a victimhood narrative so profound it borders on the clinical...projecting your own national decline, your own loss of agency, your own self-inflicted castration onto the one country that still possesses the will to act like a great power. Trump doesn’t “deprioritize” the relationship; he simply refuses to indulge the delusion any longer. He sees what you refuse to admit: the United Kingdom of 2026 is no longer the reliable offshore balancer of 1945. It’s a mid-tier European power wrestling with internal entropy, elite disconnect, and a demographic trajectory that makes long-term strategic partnership… let’s just say, complicated. We are sick of it. Sick of the free ride. Sick of the lectures from people whose capitals are turning into no-go zones while their defense ministers beg Washington for more F-35s and more carrier groups to patrol waters they can no longer secure themselves. Sick of the pomp, the pageantry, the royal visits, and the hand-wringing editorials that treat American self-interest as some kind of moral failing. The special relationship isn’t dead. It’s being stress-tested by reality. And reality, Mr. Economist, is a vicious bitch with a ledger in one hand and a mirror in the other. Look into it. 💀⚖️🗡️

🚨 Here is the full 40 minutes of my crew and I exposing California fraud, Minnesota was big but California is even bigger... We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences. Like it and share it, the fraud must STOP. We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians. It is time to EXPOSE IT ALL and end America's fraud crisis.

@NUCLRGOLF No. It shouldn't be against the rules anyway. The arm lock that some used is "anchoring" and it is approved. Scott, Bradley, Simpson, and Els all won majors while "anchoring". Should their wins be removed?

@data_republican I have an idea better than a protest: Senate Majority Leader Thune wants nothing more than to protect John Cornyn & keep him in the Senate. If we don’t get the SAVE America Act, how about we all head to Texas & help defeat Cornyn on May 26th? Thoughts?

Conservatives don't normally plan protests. We don't have any funding in place, but I can't help but think that maybe we should consider making an exception when it comes to the ousting of Thune and passing the SAVE America Act. Has anyone else thought about this? The thing that makes me think it's not worth it is that I've never seen protests accomplish anything, but I don't know what else we can do. Any ideas?

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna WINS OVER Bill Maher’s liberal audience with a common sense pitch for voter ID — “This is an 80-20 issue.” The crowd applauded her when she finished. LUNA: “The Senate did a vote on voter ID and it failed.” “The Democrats voted against it.” “There is a lot of games in the Senate and I’ve been nuking my own party.” “So look, we’re not perfect but what I’ll tell you is this is an 80-20 issue, like banning insider trading.” “The establishment in control is blocking it.” “If you cannot do your job in the Senate and get voter ID passed, proof of citizenship, you should find a different job because the American people, Black, White Hispanic, Democrat, Republican, independent want this.” “And it is a failure if we cannot get this over the finish line.” [Applause]
