When you listen to Trump talk about Taiwan (or many other topics) it’s the stuff he doesn’t say that is more revealing. Asked about Taiwan he blathers on about how big and strong China is, how tiny Taiwan is, about tariffs and dumb American presidents who didn’t use them. What doesn’t he talk about? Alliances, obligations, democracy, values, honor, etc. Keep in mind, if you don’t care whether Trump throws Taiwan under the bus, that wouldn’t be the only betrayal involved. We’d be screwing Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, and Australia too. I’m not saying we should get into a shooting war over Taiwan. I am saying Trump shouldn’t betray our allies, our values, and our national security and national honor just because he’s got a man crush on Xi.

@ChuysRestaurant your website ordering sucks. I tried 3 times to make an order, your site failed each time but charged me $1 each for my efforts. Just go to door dash!

@histories_arch @grok is this true and how did the couple have a photograph 20 miles down the road in the 1950s

On a peaceful Sunday afternoon in June 1961, just months after leaving the presidency, Dwight D. Eisenhower was tending his vegetable garden at his Gettysburg farm when he noticed a young couple had gotten their car stuck in the mud on the rural road bordering his property. Without hesitation, the 70-year-old former Supreme Commander grabbed a rope from his barn, trudged through the muck in his overalls, and spent forty-five minutes helping push their beat-up Chevy back onto solid ground. What makes this moment so beautifully human is that the couple—newlyweds Tom and Susan from Ohio on their honeymoon—had no idea they were being rescued by the man who’d led the Allied forces to victory and served two terms as President. Eisenhower never mentioned it, introducing himself simply as “Ike, the farmer next door” and chatting about their travels while hauling on the rope with mud splattered across his work clothes. When they finally freed the car, Mamie appeared with a thermos of lemonade and homemade cookies, inviting the bewildered couple onto the porch. For an hour, they swapped marriage advice, fishing tips, and stories of road trips, with Ike sharing memories of journeys he’d taken with Mamie decades earlier. Only twenty miles down the road, when they showed a gas station attendant their photo with “the nice farmer who helped us,” someone gasped: “That’s President Eisenhower!” Tom later wrote Ike a thank-you note, and the former president responded: “The pleasure was all ours—Mamie and I love meeting young people starting their adventures together. Remember: a good marriage is like farming, it takes patience, hard work, and knowing some days you’re just going to get muddy. Stay happy. Your friend, Ike.” What absolutely destroys you is knowing that Eisenhower could have enjoyed celebrity retirement, but instead chose to be simply Ike—a neighbor who helped strangers, a farmer who got his hands dirty, and a man who measured his worth not by past glory but by present kindness, proving true greatness is what you do when nobody’s watching. © History Pictures #archaeohistories

Remember, it doesn’t matter if they are Democrats or Republicans, liberals or conservatives, the government will always try to find ways to take your guns and violate your rights as an American.

@LundThomad @sentdefender They’re

FBI Director Kash Patel: “As Kristi said, you cannot bring a firearm loaded with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have that right to break the law and incite violence.”

The Founders didn’t write the Second Amendment for calm times, polite politics, or compliant citizens. They wrote it because governments eventually remind you why it’s necessary.

Take note: the take it or leave it demands Trump is issuing America’s own treaty allies over Greenland are harsher than most anything he has said or threatened to Putin and Russia.

You can't just stop & pickup kids on the streets w/no cause. Disgusting. If this was my kid I would stop at nothing to have these agents fired & sued for violating 4th amendment rights. US citizens dont have to carry around a birth certificate. This is insane and must be stopped.

U.S. Senator Mark Kelly on Monday released a video statement after filing a federal civil lawsuit against U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: "Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth have tried to silence me for speaking out. Today, I’m fighting back because this isn’t just about me. This is about the rights of all retired veterans and all Americans, and I’m not going to let this Administration take those away." - X post

@Osint613 Impeachable offense to even consider it. If only we had an Article 1 branch of Government that had even a hint of self respect...

U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered his special forces commanders to draw up a plan for the invasion of Greenland - but is being resisted by senior military figures, according to a report from Daily Mail.

Most of the teams in this CFP deserved to be there. Alabama is not one of them 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's almost like the SEC was really a 1 bid league ( 2 at the most) @overrated_sec @SEC_Exposed @esecpn But they forced 5 !!!

If you’re cheering the use of Tomahawks here, you are cheering the use of scarce, long range, standoff weapons that would be quite useful against China on a bad day. You do you. But, Nigeria? Cmon.

holy moly - it looks like @SenSchumer and I are smoking reefer outside a wedding...

Nothing will take the place of persistence. Talent will not—nothing is more common than unsuccessful men of talent. Genius will not—unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not—the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence & determination alone are omnipotent.

@ClemsonKickoff This, this, and this

Let Vizzina play moving forward. This season is no longer about this season. It is about getting ready for next year. Let's see the young guys. What is there to lose? A nondescript bowl game? Who cares.

@ClemsonKickoff If this is really Reilly's offense, he needs to go and allow the successor to hire a staff. If it's Dabo's hand up his @$$, then what's the point. I've seen enough of Allen and everyone on the defense staff. Alumni or not.

Who on the coaching staff should be back next year? Who needs to go?
