To the Americans: I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States. And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness: You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence. This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns. Success is equated with exploitation. Ambition is looked upon with contempt. This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom. But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated. This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet. And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America: Thank God for the United States. Thank God for the wisdom of its founders. Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man. Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners. Long may your admirable country dominate the world. Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states. May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning. Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill. Thank God for the USA. Happy 250th. Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

Congratulations!!!! Praying for you and your family and especially your dad. We miss his voice every day.

I am sooooooo excited about this! I’ve been wanting a Jeremy show forever!

Praying for @jordanbpeterson, @MikhailaFuller and the entire family. We need Jordan’s voice and wisdom now more than ever. God speed on his recovery.

Does anyone have a clue how much money I would pay to never hear or see @RealCandaceO on my timeline? I am so sick of this grifting asshole that I cannot even explain it.

@_abbeydear Praying.

My dad had a heart attack yesterday. They are preparing him for surgery tomorrow. Please be praying for a smooth surgery and swift recovery.

Eeep!! @andrewklavan so excited for this next chapter of Cameron Winter.

Who’s gonna tell @JoshuaHerr6? Lol. @SpencerKlavan

@JoshuaHerr6 I couldn’t agree more however I’m not going to lie and say it’s always easy for me. After incredible, mind boggling atrocities, especially those committed on October 7, I found it very, very difficult to see the perpetrators as human beings made in the image of God.

It is a terrible sin against God and Man to call someone “filth, “trash,” “vermin,” “animal,” or other subhuman things, no matter how evil the person. It insults the image of God, which is inherent though distorted. It’s becoming common, especially among new convert influencers. Christians should hold these brothers & sisters to account.

I’m tired of bad news and Candace Owens all over social media, post a pic of your pets please 😍 👇🏻🩷🐶🐰🐭🐸🐔🐷🐯

Hey, as you know @jordanbpeterson has been really sick. A lot of people have been asking for updates so here’s one. He’s recovering slowly day by day but I won't lie, it's slow and scary. He won't be back for another few months at least, probably longer. We’re not entirely sure what’s going on but it looks like possibly severe CIRS and a LOT of bad luck. Or we’re getting spiritually attacked. Or both. To be perfectly honest, I think a lot of this is spiritual. My newborn Audrey almost died of heart failure for no reason in June, dad got sick and came to stay with us in July, then needed a hospital and the same day he went to the hospital by ambulance, my newborn turned blue (again) at home for a different reason not heart related and went a different hospital by ambulance. Within 3 hours of each other. It's been one thing after another in an otherworldly type of way. In the meantime, we'll be going full force with @petersonacademy, and keeping his message across his brand alive while he recovers. Not letting demons get in the way of that. Prayers are MUCH appreciated. Ephesians 6:12

OK, I’ll give you some reasons. I’ll start with the simplest – her tone. She delivers all her monologues with a very nasty tone, full of sarcasm and scrunched up faces. She’s quick to target others and make insinuations. As for her content, like many, it was a red flag for me when she doubled down on Kanye. I made excuses for her at the time because they were friends and because he was likely mentally ill. Still, it didn’t sit well with me that she was brushing away his comments and particularly that she was misrepresenting them. She kept saying that he said he would go defcon on “some Jews” when he had really just said he would go defcon on THE Jews. She made that false distinction several times and was finally corrected on it, but again she just scrunched up her face and brushed it aside. Secondly, her interview with Andrew Tate was a big red flag for me. I had no problem that she interviewed him – in fact I was looking forward to it. I expected her to push back on him, though. Instead, it was a friendly softball interview in which she made excuses for him, saying we all had things in our past that we regret, etc. She gave him opportunities to brush away criticism, she laughed with him, and she acted like his worst actions and comments were in the distant past when many had occurred within the last year. This interview struck me as dishonest and overly supportive. Then there was October 7th. Her outrage was misplaced from the start. She was sharing videos of the big pro-Palestine protests in London (which were largely pro-Hamas protests), implying validity in their cause. This was before Israel had invaded Gaza or dropped a single bomb. Then of course her rhetoric became increasingly loud and anti-Israel. She was one of the first to claim “genocide” when the conflict still had a very low death count. I never thought she made any appropriate condemnation of Hamas during that entire time. She started to go down the conspiracy rabbit hole, questioning everything – the shape of the earth, the moon landing, etc. The last straw for me was when she declared that she would stake her reputation on Brigitte Macron being a man. Yes, I’ve seen her “evidence,” and I think that claim was and still is preposterous. She was of course fired by daily wire at that time, and she engaged in a passive aggressive encounter with Ben Shapiro in which she clearly shared a Bible verse implying that his actions were based on his love of money. When he responded, she pretended that she was only sharing the verse in a vacuum and said he was attacking her for her faith. This is when she also started the “Christ is King” trend. That is when I made my final break with her. I felt she was using the Bible and Christ‘s name to fight her personal, professional, and political battles, but she was pretending not to do so. In my mind, there was no excuse for using her Christian faith in this way, and I had final clarity that she was indeed a liar. From that point on, I have only felt validated. She has misrepresented one thing after another, from little things to big things. One day it’s acting like Mengele’s twin experiments were a fantastical concoction and another day it’s her connection to Charlie and the events around his death. And that pretty much sums it up. That took me a long time to type out, so I hope you at least read it in good faith.

Praying for you. God will help you get through this.

@rightresponsem You are a disgusting, evil moron.

I’d rather China own TikTok than Israel.

@SpencerKlavan Hmm. Thanks for this. Was wondering if it was worth my time.

It’s kind of astonishing to me how good Alien: Earth is. I had less than zero expectations so I guess I’m grading on a curve. But still, almost every scene is good and some are exquisite. It rocks.

Daily reminder that @RealCandaceO is a mentally ill individual who needs our prayers.

Add @andrewklavan to this list and you have the 4 best, and wisest people to listen to.

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

@xMikeMac Same, man. Same.

Is anyone else struggling to understand why Charlie Kirk’s death feels heavier than so many other tragedies? I can’t explain why it’s hitting me this hard.

As an American, as a Jew, and as Dennis, I am devastated at the assassination of Charlie Kirk. The truth is, as I write these words, I can’t believe I am writing them. I am in the denial stage of mourning. As an American, we have lost the most articulate spokesman for America and its unique value system—a country founded to be free, based on Jerusalem and Athens, the Judeo-Christian value system and the Greek emphasis on logic and reason. Charlie was a uniquely gifted individual who, in his teens, created the largest movement of young Americans committed to preserving and growing America and its ideals. He tirelessly went from campus to campus, from Oxford to Utah, dialoging with any student who wished to debate him. Using his vast reservoir of facts and his exceptionally speedy and articulate mind, he gave them what seemed to be unlimited amounts of time, and then calmy eviscerated all their anti-American, anti-Western, and anti-Judeo-Christian positions. I watched an inordinate number of these exchanges and thanked God that Charlie Kirk was there to do this work. America’s youth in particular have lost a moral and intellectual leader, one who would, perhaps, have one day become their president. As a committed Jew, I thank God regularly that a non-Jew, a committed Christian, became one of the few great public spokesmen on behalf of Israel the Jewish communities outside of Israel. Few Jews could match Charlie’s knowledge and eloquent arguments on behalf of those two entities. As Dennis, I have lost a very close friend. Charlie repeatedly visited me in the various hospitals that I have been in since November 12 of last year, when I suffered a catastrophic fall which has left me paralyzed. When members of the nursing staff heard that Charlie Kirk was visiting me, my room became the most popular one in the hospital. Charlie brought me the manuscript of his forthcoming book arguing that everyone—Christians as well as Jews—should observe Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath, just as he and his family had begun to do from Friday sundown to Saturday sundown. It is a measure of our close relationship that he dedicated the book to me. His brilliant exposition of these arguments provide clear evidence for the non-necessity of a college education for most young Americans. My heart breaks for his young widow, Erika, and for his two children, who have lost as great a man and a father as children can have. And for Charlie, who did not live to see them grow up. For one of the first times in my 20 years with my wife, Sue, I have seen her sob uncontrollably. The Prager home is in deep mourning, as are the homes of countless Americans. The loss to us personally and to the country generally is immeasurable.
