@ShadowofEzra I don't read the comments. I read your posts. You need to stay.

Well, guys, this is the end of the road for me. I’ve made the tough decision to stop posting on X due to relentless harassment from the same person targeting my account with community notes. This morning, I shared news about an MS-13 leader’s arrest, only to be immediately hit with a community note claiming, "No confirmed sources have been made about this." It’s clear that my account isn’t allowed to say anything without a fact-checker injecting their own bias or left-wing opinions. I’ll miss you all more than I can say. Social media was all I ever had. Good luck to you all.

@TuckerCarlson I am so sorry for your loss! Prayers to you and your family.

Obituary for my father. Richard Warner Carlson died at 84 on March 24, 2025 at home in Boca Grande, Florida after six weeks of illness. He refused all painkillers to the end and left this world with dignity and clarity, holding the hands of his children with his dogs at his feet. He was born February 10, 1941 at Massachusetts General Hospital to a 15-year-old Swedish-speaking girl and placed in the Home for Little Wanderers in Boston, where he developed rickets from malnutrition. His legs were bent for the rest of his life. After years in foster homes, he was placed with the Carlson family in Norwood, Mass. His adoptive father, a tannery manager, died when he was 12 and he stopped attending school regularly. At 17, he was jailed for car theft, thrown out of high school for the second time, and enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps. In 1962, in search of adventure, he drove to California. He spent a year as a merchant seaman on the SS Washington Bear, transporting cargo to ports in the Orient, and then became a reporter. Over the next decade, he was a copy boy at the LA Times, a wire service reporter for UPI and an investigative reporter and anchor for ABC News, covering the upheaval of the period. He knew virtually every compelling figure of the time, including Jim Jones, Patty Hearst, Eric Hoffer, Jerry Garcia, as well as Mafia leaders and members of the Manson Family. In 1965, he was badly injured reporting from the Watts riots in Los Angeles. By 1975, he was married with two small boys, when his wife departed for Europe and didn’t return. He threw himself into raising his boys, whom he often brought with him on reporting trips. At home, he educated them during three-hour dinners on topics that ranged from the French Revolution to Bolshevik Russia, PG Wodehouse, the history of the American Indian and, always, the eternal and unchanging nature of people. He was a free thinker and a compulsive book reader, including at red lights. He left a library of thousands of books, most dog-eared and filled with marginalia. His reading and life experiences convinced him that God is real. He had an outlaw spirit tempered by decency. In 1979, he married the love of his life, Patricia Swanson. They were together for 44 years, all of them happy. She died sixteen months before he did and he mourned her every day. In 1985, he moved to Washington to work for the Reagan Administration. He spent five years as the director of the Voice of America, and then moved to the Seychelles as the US ambassador. In 1992, he became the CEO of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and later ran a division of King World television. The last 25 years of his life were spent in work whose details were never completely clear to his family, but that was clearly interesting. He worked in dozens of countries and breakaway republics around the world, and was involved in countless intrigues. He knew a number of colorful national leaders, including Rafic Hariri of Lebanon, Aslan Abashidze of Adjara, Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire, and whomever runs Somaliland. He was a fundamentally nonjudgmental person who was impossible to shock, and he described them all with amused affection. He spoke to his sons every day and had lunch with them once a week for thirty years at the Metropolitan Club in Washington, always prefaced by a dice game. Throughout his life he fervently loved dogs. Richard W. Carlson is survived by his sons, Tucker and Buckley, his beloved daughter-in-law Susie, and five grandchildren. He was the toughest human being anyone in his family ever knew, and also the kindest and most loyal. RIP.

@libsoftiktok @JasmineForUS @DOGE - Trump won the popular vote and the electoral vote. You need a civics lesson. You shouldn't just spew the first thing that pops in your head - you should think first. The taxpayers shouldn't be paying for your car payment & where did you get $9mil?

Rep. Jasmine Crockett claims Trump is occupying the White House and calls him an enemy of the United States.

@SenFettermanPA Men competing in women's sports? You stand for nothing.

The small handful of trans athletes in PA in a political maelstrom deserve an ally and I am one. Depersonalized as “they/them” in a political ad, but are just schoolchildren. Empty show votes or cruelty on social media aren’t part of a thoughtful, dignified solution.

@libsoftiktok Might want to DOGE these celebrities. Clearly, they are oblivious to reality. How do they maintain their lifestyle?

@ImMeme0 This is such bullshit! I work my ass off and have to choose between eggs or bread. I'm always putting things back on the shelg because it's so expensive & this chick gets all this on my taxes? This pisses me off!

@EndWokeness Crockett is an enemy to the USA @FBIDirectorKash @PamBondi

Rep. Jasmine Crockett on Trump's fight with Zelensky: "Trump is an enemy to USA"

@GuntherEagleman @TomHoman_ @PamBondi @FBIDirectorKash

BREAKING: AOC admitted that she was, in fact, advising criminal aliens on how to avoid ICE detection/deportation. She should be prosecuted for aiding/abetting illegal aliens. Set an example!

@matt_vanswol @BasedMikeLee We need to leave NATO. All of Europe uses the US for money. They launder it so their elites get richer.

@BasedMikeLee Why is a NATO ALLY refusing a US submarine? That’s absurdly stupid.

Good time to exit NATO

@GuntherEagleman Which really means Kinzinger is a Russian agent. Classic case of projection that the left alwaus resorts to: accusing a Republican of what the democrat is actually doing.

Adam Kinzinger is a traitor.

@iluminatibot My husband insists it's a petrified tree.

Where did this really come from?

@libsoftiktok Uh... since he stated they should protest at Tesla dealerships, I'm going to go with yes...

Stuart Stevens, a Lincoln Project advisor, suggested people should protest in Tesla showrooms. Multiple Tesla dealerships and Teslas have recently been targets of vandalism and arson. Did Stuart Stevens incite people to do crimes and help them find Tesla locations to target?

@MZHemingway She's in on it. She knows too much. She's a traitor

Yesterday, Susan Rice said of the Trump-Zelensky meeting, "There is no question this was a set up." She revealed full knowledge of the mineral agreement, complained that it didn't include "concrete" security agrees (meaning, apparently, commitment of US troops on the ground if conditions merit), and then mischaracterized Trump's behavior, counting on most Americans to not have watched what transpired over the entire hour in the Oval Office. You can look at this and dismiss it as typical Democrat talking points, but you could also view it as almost a confession, one that includes details about the current "Get Trump" effort. Yes, Trump won the popular vote against unbelievable odds, but if you think Team Obama is being any less involved in quiet insurrections than they were during the first Trump administration (Russia collusion, Ukraine impeachment, etc.), you're clueless. I'll remind you that Susan Rice was in the small Jan. 5, 2017 meeting in the WH with other key Russia collusion hoax perpetrators. Zelensky repeatedly declined opportunities to sign the deal in Kyiv and Munich, and requested the meeting at the White House. It later came out that Rice and Tony Blinken, Victoria Nuland, and Alexander Vindman may have been personally advising Zelensky to do this meeting in the way he did -- that they recommended him to be hostile and to try to goad Trump into blowing up. Even though he didn't, and even though Zelensky's actions horrified many normal Americans, the Obama team went on the airwaves to falsely characterize what happened. I think their goal was to have a wonderful performance by Zelensky, an angry Trump appearing to scuttle the deal, and the support of the neocon portion of the GOP to start applying pressure on Trump to have US Troop commitments as part of the "security guarantee." It was a set-up, in Susan Rice's interesting choice of words. Instead, Zelensky had one of the worst stage performances of his acting career, and Trump was statesmanlike (against all odds) throughout. Zelensky followed Team Obama's advice to be hostile to a tee, but it didn't land how they thought it would. Surprisingly, one of the most important aspects of it not working out might have been Lindsay Graham's reaction. Had he and other neocons thought Zelensky was being reasonable, Trump would be having to fight (even moreso) the neocon portion of the GOP in addition to Team Obama's dirty tricks. Even the "conservative" neocon pundits on TV last night were admitting Zelensky had royally messed up. As you can see from the hostility of the bureaucracy to any Republican oversight, no matter how reasonable or minor it may be, the entrenched bureaucracy and permanent DC apparatus is quite active. That goes quadruple for the deep state in the Intelligence Community. I'd expect more and more shenanigans and to be prepared so that you don't fall for the next information operation. The post-WWII architecture in Europe and the US needs this war to continue or be settled on "US troops on the ground" type guarantees, even though that's not what Americans want. Things will heat up here, and it's a very dangerous time.

@libsoftiktok They are paying to launder the money so they more

European leaders hold emergency meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky in London: 🇬🇧 Starmer 🇺🇦 Zelensky 🇫🇷 Macron 🇩🇪 Scholz 🇮🇹 Meloni 🇵🇱 Tusk 🇨🇦 Trudeau 🇪🇸 Sánchez 🇩🇰 Frederiksen 🇳🇴 Støre 🇫🇮 Stubb 🇸🇪 Kristersson 🇳🇱 Schoof 🇨🇿 Fiala 🇷🇴 Bolojan 🇹🇷 Fidan 🇪🇺 VdL 🇪🇺 Costa

@doronclark Why?

Trump and Vance brought shame on all Americans today. We must stand with Ukraine.

@AutismCapital No, he doesn't. He wants our money.

🚨ZELENSKYY: “I don’t want Trump to be in the middle of me and Putin. I want Trump to be more on our side. Russia brought this war to us and they’re not right. Ukrainians want to hear the United States having a strong position on our side. We want to be two parties against Russia.”

@dom_lucre @FBIDirectorKash @PamBondi @realDonaldTrump - George Lopez needs investigated...

@EricAbbenante @FBI @elonmusk @FBIDirectorKash @realDonaldTrump - these people think those of us who voted for Trump got it wrong and are talking about a coup in so many words...

Jawdropping conversation on Bill Maher where they discuss annulling elections if 'the people got it wrong': Bill Maher: "What do you do when the people get it wrong? Because sometimes they do. What do you when people do that? When the people want the wrong party, do you cancel elections?" Fareed Zakaria: "Illiberal democracy: When a majority of people vote for a party that then systematically gets rid of freedom of the press, independent judiciary, it's a really dark place." Democrats attempting to void an election after they determine the people got it wrong: 'Is this what Democracy looks like?'

@elonmusk @joerogan @elonmusk - there are people on the internet using you to encourage people to invest in crypto. They have hooked my husband and are taking our money on the promise of huge gains. Hidden fees, emotional statements...I don't know what to do.

Just did a long @JoeRogan episode

@LivePDDave1 Why does she still have security clearance?

Susan Rice was reportedly "coaching up" Zelenskyy before his disastrous Oval Office meeting. Who thinks this bitch's security clearances should be revoked? 🙋‍♂️
