@FloraLuzz_ @AmericasFreedo5 Sure, because I’m a registered voter, a citizen, and have an ID.

Imagine showing up to vote and seeing ICE checking IDs at the door. Would you still vote?

Well, firstly I’d be very skeptical of anyone who believes that “97%” canard… That’s not science, it’s propaganda. Next, I’d ask, “why are people using propaganda in the climate debate? What is their agenda?” Then I’d understand. We can be good stewards of the environment without buying into the agenda.

97% of scientists who know what the hell they are talking about support the idea of human caused climate change but some numpties with 20 followers on X disagree. Who would you believe?

It’s not that so-called “right-wingers” reject that the climate is always changing, of course we understand that. It’s that we’re not foolish enough to believe that it’s all human caused and that “climate action” by government (which always happens to sound a whole lot like socialist wealth redistribution) can do much to alter the naturally occurring cycles of the planet. The shame is, we should all agree to work on ways to be cleaner and better stewards of the environment. Instead we have to be on constant guard against the watermelon crowd - green on the outside and red inside - who are constantly on the make for more power.

I’m starting to think that I’m the only right-winger on this platform who believes that climate change is a real phenomenon. Not saying it hasn’t been exaggerated in the media, but I just don’t see how you can wholesale reject it.

@toylan20 Yes, though it doesn’t need to be debilitating.

If you don’t feel sore in the muscle you trained, does that mean you didn’t train hard enough?

Every 5 miles. Word of caution: They make caffeinated ones now. On my last marathon, which happened to be attached to an Ironman (😉) I was feeling a bit, um, knackered, so I downed like 3, maybe 4, of those. Big mistake. I lost 20 minutes of non-running time because I could not stop urinating. It was like my body sprung a leak. Lasted well after the race, which thankfully I finished, missing my goal by 5 minutes. 1 caffeine gel max for me from now on 😂😂😂

Marathon gel honesty chart: 0 = brave or doomed 1–2 = probably underfuelled 3–4 = old-school 5–6 = sensible 7+ = committed to performance “I just sip sports drink” = rolling the dice A lot of “pace blow-ups” are just hunger wearing a race bib. The marathon does not care that gels feel annoying. It cares whether you gave your body enough fuel before the wheels got dramatic. Be honest. How many gels do you take in a marathon?

@grey4626 @CatherineM76971 After an intro like that, who could resist reading it - wow! Into the dark I now will wander 😉

Six years after a fentanyl-ravaged career criminal exhaled his final breath on a Minneapolis sidewalk, the necrotic liturgy of the American death cult grinds on with mechanical precision. Mayor Jacob Frey, that slick avatar of elite cowardice, took to X on Memorial Day 2026 to perform the annual sacrament: “Today, we remember George Floyd, who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago. That moment changed our city forever.” He is right, of course. Just not in the saccharine, narrative-approved way he imagines. Floyd’s death…11 ng/mL fentanyl, methamphetamine, advanced heart disease, and a prefrontal cortex long since fried by chronic substance abuse…did not expose some primordial White sin. It detonated a controlled demolition of civil order. Cities were licensed to burn. Police officers were executed in the streets. A generation of decent men learned the iron law of Daniel Penny syndrome: intervene to protect the innocent from high-impulsivity predators and you will be hunted, bankrupted, and branded a racist for the crime of noticing reality in real time. This is not policy error. It is civilizational pathology engineered with cold neurological intent. Suicidal empathy…that dopamine-drenched status signal of the modern left…has been weaponized into a suicide pact. Black predation is recast as “lived experience.” White self-preservation is pathologized as supremacy. The sacred hierarchy demands it: George Floyd’s corpse becomes holy relic justifying billions in destruction and blood, while Charlie Kirk is memory-holed on college campuses and Austin Metcalf’s family is treated as the real criminals for demanding justice after a premeditated stabbing over tent space. What follows is no ordinary essay. It is an unflinching autopsy. A lethal, precise dissection of the lethal racial hypocrisy that torched cities, erased White victims, and birthed a society where pattern recognition itself is now a thought crime. Read it. Absorb it. Then look around and understand exactly why the West is bleeding out…and who is holding the scalpel. open.substack.com/pub/lhgrey78/p…

@MichelleMaxwell Good morning, Michelle! It was a great weekend, but lots to do this week. Got a dinner in DC and a gig in Richmond. Unfortunately, there’s a day in between, so it’s two drives for me. Not complaining - it’s all good stuff 😁 Enjoy the day and God bless 🙏

Good morning from Virginia! I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday 😘

@DavidLimbaugh I’m still hitting it at 62, but if I felt I could no longer carry the vocal, I’d be done on stage. But I’d always keep singing at home. It’s a hobby, like any other, but I guess when you’re getting paid millions to do it, it’s hard to say no…

I really don't understand why performers continue into their seventies, but far more difficult to understand is why their fans do. I know of few cases that they retain good vocal quality. What is the deal?

@TheAliceSmith Nothing funny about it! 😉 It’s the suicide of the west. Tragic is the word, I think.

The funny thing about multiculturalism is that it was devised to facilitate the mass immigration of Muslims to the West - but Muslims themselves reject it!

@DanFriedman81 Shoot, if a White choir boy got killed by the cops, or by a gang of Black criminals for that matter, you’d barely hear his name. At most it would be a 1-2 day story and then die everywhere but on X. There’d be no riots, no soul searching, no reform, nada. Floyd was propaganda.

More than half of people killed by cops are white. White people do not care about them because whites do not practice racial solidarity. If a white long-term addict who served 7 years for aggravated robbery was killed by a cop, even wrongfully, you would never hear his name.

@Clawyer97 @JohnLeFevre True. I’d further argue it starts with the individual, who must respect the norms, mores, and laws of the community and the lives of people other than themselves.

@GooseGanderTalk @JohnLeFevre Safety is something that comes from the people of the community. If the community supports and grows criminals, no policy or police unit is going to be able to deliver what the community doesn’t support.

Take note, this is who they are. May you have a blessed Memorial Day.

@JohnLeFevre That is truly awful, as are the 40,000 murder victims since then who happen to be White, at least 3,500 - 4,000 of which (probably more, many remain unknown) were killed by Black assailants. Murder is horrible, period. All communities deserve real safety.

Since George Floyd’s death in May 2020, the US has recorded over 50,000 Black homicide victims - more than 14 times the total number of Black Americans lynched by the KKK and mobs across the entire Tuskegee dataset (3,446 from 1882–1968). The "defund," bail reform, and de-policing policies sold as racial justice delivered the sharpest homicide spike in modern history instead - disproportionately devastating Black neighborhoods. Black communities deserve real safety, accountable policing, and cultural honesty - not performative slogans from grifters and opportunistic politicians.

@RupertLowe10 Coming over in a few weeks! I can’t wait to get out in the countryside.

I love England so much.

@C_3C_3 @CHRISTYUSA1776 Half the world went nuts. One multiple felon dies while resisting arrest, meanwhile… 22,000 US murders that same year, ~40% of the victims were White, ~50% Black. What, did those lives not matter? Yeah, it was all propaganda.

It’s hard to fathom the global propaganda operation ran during the BLM era. It’s unreal looking back.

The number of countries that held marches for… George Floyd: 93 Henry Nowak: 0 Very Telling.

@MarindaVannoy1 Cory Booker too.

Jacob Frey is a national embarrassment.

@lisathebeauty1 Inflation? Market changes? Increased insurance and regulatory costs? Rental properties are products similar to any other. The law of supply and demand will not be defeated.

Landlords should not be able to increase rent unless they are upgrading the property/apartment.

@news_jul @nbcsnl Good for you for showing good humor! We should all do that...

I'm glad I could take one for the team with @nbcsnl on summer break Thanks for the memes, internet! Hope you'll stick around for the reporting 🙇‍♀️

"On the way from the Renaissance to our days we have enriched our experience, but we have lost the concept of a Supreme Complete Entity which used to restrain our passions and our irresponsibility. We have placed too much hope in political and social reforms, only to find out that we were being deprived of our most precious possession: our spiritual life." - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, 1978, Harvard University commencement address
