They call it “Good Friday”, but it was the worst day that ever was. It was the ultimate treason against heaven, the ultimate insult. God would’ve been just two lifeless planet off the face of the universe, maybe even to wipe the universe off the face of the universe. They murdered his only son. He sent the son to build a bridge of peace and to be a gift of good to our broken and a desecrated race. It was the ultimate insult. And God knew they would do it that way, and he sent his son anyway, and personally asked him to go, for love’s sake. And Jesus, wonderful Jesus, the wildly and horrifically brutalized, beaten, and executed. He understood what he was getting into when he did it and he still did it. That is infinite kindness mixed well with infinite grit. The God of the living, crucified and dead, in the grave, waging war against hell, he brought with him when he rose a host of rescued captives. And on the third day, the most beautiful day that ever existed, the day for which every Christmas was born and bowed, on Easter he rose from death to life. And I was his enemy. Truly, and literally I was. I knowingly spoke to heaven as a 16-year-old and said that I would put God in his place. What profound hubris. And what a God! He would have been just so very just to punch me in the head. And yet he loves and he is so filled with grace. He turned his face in kindness to me. I was literally his enemy, and he literally died to save me. And he didn’t just save me, he literally saved my sister from death, my brother from death. He saved my family from death, literally. Jesus is more beautiful than words. I do owe him my life. And this is the day he did it. This is the day he raised from the dead for me. And so his name is the highest blessing. It is the sweetest song. I love him for it. I truly did not deserve it and he was so good. If that was all he ever did for me, it would be infinitely more than I ever deserved. How could he do it? And he has walked with me and has done good by me the last 28 years. Not just throwing pennies, he gave me my wife Wife, and she is heaven‘s idea of a treasure of a woman. He brought my daughters to life. We couldn’t have kids, I have five children in heaven. I was as poor as you could get, as worthless as you could get in a professional sense, and he put me in college, and he gave me my career. From undergraduate through grad school, he not only walked with me, but he pointed me where to go and he opened doors. And every one of those was a good gift. And he has put me through my jobs and walked me through them too, and every one of those is a good gift. He is so good. He is so kind. And if you look for it, you have to be looking for it, when you read the Bible, he is a brilliant light, carved out of solid lightning, leaking through into this broken, terrible world. And if you are at the bottom and you have no hope, you can cry out to him. If he would save the miserable creature that I was, you are less far from him than I was, cry out to him.

The Quran is in the library. The Bible isn't. And when students ask why, the principal hides. This is happening in Texas.

Breaking: A Color Revolution is Underway These @DataRepublican missives must be read, understood, and shared by every American who cares about saving our Republic the way it was originally designed for We The People and future generations to come. @elonmusk

The thousands of British people imprisoned merely for social media posts or speaking their mind need to be released! No more prison island!!

Why is forcing people to give up their resources considered more ethical than voluntary trades that create wealth? Genuinely curious about the moral reasoning.

UPDATE: My amendment to pull nearly $482 MILLION away from NATO and put it into AMERICAN military bases just failed… 333 Members of Congress, including 127 Republicans, voted to keep sending your tax dollars to NATO instead of prioritizing our own troops and military infrastructure. America should come FIRST!

White privilege is white success seen through the prism of resentment and envy.

Keep your kids away from Public School

You want to make an obscene amount of money, create a ridiculous amount of value. There is no other way. Despite what the politicians tell you.

Clear evidence of a 2-layer justice system. If she doesn’t get hers, then we’re not out from under that multilayer fraud.

Social Security trust fund raided for non-contributors Congress allowed the Social Security trust fund to be used for benefits paid to non-citizens who never paid a full career into the system. Our parents and grandparents paid payroll taxes their entire working lives expecting the money would be there for American retirees. Instead the fund is being drained faster by people who contributed far less or nothing at all. Generations that built the program are the first ones getting shortchanged. Bookmark so you have the facts. Repost so others know.

🚨HOLY CRAP!!! Davidson County TN officials are PANICKING right now... ...because illegal-immigrant families could lose their kids' free government healthcare if they cannot verify legal status. Read that again. ...I WAS TOLD NO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WERE GETTING FREE HEALTHCARE???!!! I WAS TOLD THIS WAS A FAR-RIGHT CONSPIRACY!!! Now Tennessee passes ONE law requiring verification... ...and Davidson County officials are saying out loud, on the record, that the kids of people who CANNOT prove they are here legally have been on the state benefit roll the whole time. They were lying. They were ALWAYS lying!!!!!

George Washington never went to college. His father Augustine died when George was 11, and the money for English boarding school died with him. His two older half-brothers had already been polished at Appleby Grammar School across the Atlantic. George got Virginia, a demanding mother named Mary, and whatever books he could find at home. At 14 he tried to escape it all by joining the British Royal Navy. His mother shut it down. So he did the next best thing: he taught himself surveying from his late father's instruments, and at 16 he rode west into the Shenandoah wilderness on a commission from Lord Fairfax, who owned over five million acres of Virginia and needed them mapped. His teenage journal survives. It is brutal, funny, and absolutely not the voice of a marble statue. On his first night at a frontier inn, he stripped down and climbed into what passed for a bed, only to find "nothing but a Little Straw Matted together without Sheets or any thing else but only one Thread Bear blanket with double its Weight of Vermin such as Lice Fleas etc." After that he preferred sleeping outside by the fire, even when it rained, even when his clothes froze stiff on him by morning. One journal entry, almost in passing: thirty Native warriors walked into camp carrying a fresh scalp from battle. The teenage surveying party shared their liquor with them and watched them perform a war dance by firelight. George wrote it down the way a modern teenager logs a weird night out. He swam horses across swollen rivers. He ate roasted meat off forked sticks because "our Spits was Forked Sticks our Plates was a Large Chip as for Dishes we had none." He met German settlers and noted in frustration that they "would never speak English but when spoken to they speak all Dutch." He measured timber in country where almost no English speaker had ever walked. By 17 he was the commissioned surveyor of Culpeper County, the youngest official surveyor in the colony of Virginia. By 18 he had parlayed the earnings into nearly 1,500 acres of Shenandoah Valley land in his own name, bought outright, while boys his age back east were still reciting Latin in heated parlors. The man who would one day command the Continental Army, defeat the largest empire on earth, and then voluntarily refuse a crown, did not learn leadership in a lecture hall. He learned it at 16, in a tent, in the dark, hundreds of miles from anyone who could save him.

Being above 2% inflation for 62 months is certainly a failure. But the Fed having a target of 2% in the first place is a problem. Just a slower erosion of the currency. A difference in degree, not a difference in kind.

They removed CD/DVD drives from devices. They made physical media harder to buy and use. They removed expandable storage from phones. They pushed us into streaming subscriptions. They made always-online normal. They made unlimited internet necessary. Then slowly raised the price of everything. Ownership quietly became renting.

It’s always about taking life. Taxes and fees are made of money Money is made of hours and sweat Hours are what makes up life. So when they take away the hours of your life, they’re taking away your life. That means when they are taking away money and property, they’re taking away your life. That means that when they artificially jack up taxes and fees, beyond the value returned, which can only be determined by an actually free market and not a government deformed one, they’re taking away your life. And historically, leftism has always eventually actualized that with death camps. They literally work you to death and feed you starvation level levels of food. That’s what it’s running in China, it’s what’s running North Korea, that’s what you used to run the Soviet Union. And people pushing leftism/communism here are, implicitly if not explicitly, trying to bring those death camps here.

I have a terrible feeling that the push for these data centers is to put us under mass surveillance.

When the Project 2030 agenda is to sell vaccines, engineer a food shortage, & blame climate change on cows, it’s purely coincidental that a tick bite now triggers a red meat allergy & definitely not the CIA manipulating ticks into bioweapons, because they’d never weaponize ticks.

@Psychopompus007 @1776General_ I tested into mensa in the eighth grade. I’ve built my identity in my life around my ability to think in ways of that others can’t. Also, my ability to work hard.

@EngrStudent @1776General_ Becuase average iq is 100, 50% are below that and only 1 in 20 are intelligent. Got it? Ok now apply that to democracy under propoganda

🚨There are 28.5 times more White Americans with a 130 IQ than in all of India There are only 222 million White Americans and 8 million of them are over 130 IQ India has over 1.4 billion people and only 280k people over 130 IQ America doesn't need H1B invaders.
