Fun fact: The word democracy does not appear even once in the US Constitution (for VERY real reasons) . . . but it does in the Communist Manifesto.

@GoVols04 @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz Ummmm . . .

@MikeMcCroskey @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz I don’t care what their race is. They cause a lot of fucking problems!

My deep concern for Israel is that they are creating more terrorists than they are killing 😔

@numberonerebel @DemocraticWins @mmpadellan He isn't back - he is lost. And we are sad for it.

@DemocraticWins @mmpadellan He knows it’s all hands on deck and he’s doing his part and to all the haters on this comment thread: if you could touch the world in a sliver of the way he did and has and will, I don’t think you’d be here bashing someone for nothing. Scream, all you want the Boss is back.

BREAKING: Bruce Springsteen just announced that his band will be doing a tour in effort to fight back against Donald Trump's authoritarian overreach. The Boss is back!

@DemocraticWins Watching Springsteen totally dump on the working man genre that literally made him is heartbreaking. Hollywood/Music industry toxic values have utterly broken him.

@CynicalPublius @DemocraticWins Very insightful.

I grew up in Bruce Springsteen's hometown. His song "My Hometown" is LITERALLY about my hometown. Springsteen’s music was the anthem of my teenage years. The town is called Freehold, New Jersey. A. & M. Karagheusian, Inc. was a giant carpet mill in Freehold that was once the town’s single biggest employer. It shut down and moved away in 1964. That act of taking away a town’s jobs to move them to where labor was vastly cheaper DEVASTATED that community. Freehold became impoverished and almost a ghost town, taking decades to recover. All of the themes in Bruce’s early work about the indignities heaped upon the working man stem directly from the pain he, his family and his neighbors experienced when that carpet mill moved away to chase cheaper labor costs elsewhere. The theme of the betrayed working man streams across all of his early albums with a heartfelt sincerity that was borne of painful experience. The albums “Darkness on the Edge of Town,” “The River,” and “Nebraska” in particular resonate with the mournful howls of the betrayed laborer whose calloused hands meant nothing to the bosses who had thanklessly reaped the rewards of his pain and sweat. Early on, Bruce really and truly did speak for the working man. But somewhere in Hollywood he lost his way. Now, it’s 2026 and the singular domestic agenda of President Donald J. Trump is to bring back American manufacturing jobs from offshore and to restore the dignity, pride and wealth of the working everyman. And Bruce SPITS ON THAT to appeal to his Hollywood cronies. When you understand this background about Bruce, his behavior comes into sharp focus as perhaps the very most disgusting behavior of any pop star alive in America today. He has betrayed the everyman he once championed. SHAME ON YOU BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN. The young man who once wrote these lyrics would find you disgusting: "Early in the morning, factory whistle blows Man rises from bed and puts on his clothes Man takes his lunch, walks out in the morning light It's the working, the working, just the working life Through the mansions of fear, through the mansions of pain I see my daddy walking through them factory gates in the rain Factory takes his hearing, factory gives him life The working, the working, just the working life End of the day, factory whistle cries Men walk through these gates with death in their eyes And you just better believe, boy, somebody's gonna get hurt tonight It's the working, the working, just the working life 'Cause it's the working, the working, just the working life"

Hello Senator Thune, Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation." You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process. Here's how we know: Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you. Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work: Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill. Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results. Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess. Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate. You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months. Now let's talk donors: • Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user • Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify • Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration • Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail." Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable. We see the loop. You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed. What we want: 1. Force a real talking filibuster. 2. Stop hiding behind process. 3. Pass the SAVE America Act. YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents. You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time. Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.

@Makatokenboi @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz . . . or more likely, a part of the Op.

@OGChuckD @MikeMcCroskey @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz You're commenting on a literal piece of propaganda you retard. You're being psyoped into a war against our ally and you're too retarded to realize it.

Hamas, Houthis, Hezbollah, and Iran have been creating problems for much longer. Funny how Israel has no material problems anymore with Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Jordan or really even Iraq, Syria and Egypt. It's almost like Israel has no problems with countries that leave it alone and tend to their own countries needs. Funny how that works.

@MikeMcCroskey @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz Lately its been the 'multi-racial democracies' who are causing the most problems

@FarmGirlCarrie @DKH013 Wonder when the student protests at Columbia will commence?

18-year-old Melika Azizi has been executed by the Islamic Regime in Iran under the charge of being an "Enemy of God" (Moharebeh). She was violently arrested during the nationwide January protests in the city of Masal, Gilan Province of Iran, following her participation in protests against the Islamic Regime. Melika was held in Lakan Prison in Rasht, where she was subjected to physical abuse and denied contact with her family, who also faced pressure by the Islamic regime's security forces. Rest in Peace, Melika 🙏💔

@OGChuckD @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz Ahh, the self-proclaimed "critical thinker" weighs in. I bow to your clearly superior intellectual. Thank you for enlightening me!

@MikeMcCroskey @MidnightRunz @mattgaetz go fuck yourself and your pitiful propaganda talking points. BULLSHIT

@MidnightRunz @mattgaetz Yeah, the one multi-racial democracy in the ME is the problem. Brilliant.

@mattgaetz They are also creating this. 👍🏻

@tnewtondunn Afghanistan.

A fascinating answer from Gen Stan McChrystal to the NY Times on what he thinks about War Secretary Pete Hegseth's bravado culture. Worth remembering he commanded a green beret platoon, an airborne battalion and a Ranger regiment, before running Joint Special Operations Command.

@DataRepublican @johnkonrad Godspeed. Godspeed. Godspeed!

@johnkonrad Yeah, I tend to get motivated when organizations bear false witness against me.

🧵🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: THE 4-DAY MIRACLE, or How MWEG and a 500-Org Coalition Weaponized Charlie Kirk's Assassination 🚨 1,400 people. 20+ organizations. 3 professionally moderated panels. 4 days after an assassination. Does this sound organic to you? September 14, 2025 (a Sunday, no less) the "Dignity Over Violence" zoom goes live. The coalition's central resource was a website called turntoward[.]us registered by Mormon Women for Ethical Government (MWEG) ONE DAY after Charlie Kirk was shot dead at UVU. Registrant email: internal.support@mweg.org "Turn Toward." Now say "Turning Point." Did they name the campaign after the dead man's organization to advance their own political agenda? I'm going to reverse-engineer how you mobilize 20 NGOs in 4 days... because you CAN'T. Not unless the infrastructure was already built. I dare you, @mormonweg , to explain how these receipts are "absolutely false." As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

@grey4626 @Stellaaa Godspeed to full recovery.

@Stellaaa Thank you beautiful. This is misery right now. I'm sleeping more than I've ever slept in my fucking life and I still want to sleep more. I'll get there. I know this is the worst of it right now. ❤️❤️❤️

Y’all our girl @grey4626 has been really sick with pneumonia (like actually) so please consider sending her your prayers to heal up fast because we need her semantic gymnastics and poetic punch back in full force

@leonopteryz @HenryFrank02 Immigration court is an administrative process, just as I stated. It is not subject to the same "rights" as in criminal Court. The point, as made, stands. I wish you well.

Yeah, immigration court isn’t criminal courtbut that actually proves my point, not yours. Even in deportation proceedings, people still have due process rights. That means a hearing before an immigration judge, the chance to present evidence, and the ability to challenge the government’s case. ICE doesn’t just get to detain and deport someone ‘for any reason’ with zero process that’s not how the law works. Verification of status still has to go through legal procedures. So no, the point doesn’t stand you’re just redefining ‘due process’ to mean the bare minimum, when in reality it still requires an actual legal process.” try again

🚨 BREAKING: The House of Representatives has just PASSED a bill requiring AUTOMATIC deportation of illegals who commit welfare fraud, 231-186 🔥 This is a NO BRAINER! But of course, 186 Democrats voted AGAINST this. REMINDER: Democrats are NOT ON THE SIDE of Americans. The fraud encompassed in this bill includes: - Social Security fraud, - SNAP (food assistance) fraud, - Mail fraud, - Conspiracy to defraud the U.S., - Theft or bribery involving federal funds, - Identification document fraud, - And other similar crimes involving government funds or public benefits.

@leonopteryz @HenryFrank02 Immigration court. They don't "convict" - they verify the deportation, which is a different deal that criminal court. The point stands.

Due process isn’t whatever the government decides in the moment it’s a constitutional principle under the 5th and 14th Amendments that applies to all persons in the U.S., not just citizens. Courts have repeatedly upheld that. Even if someone is undocumented, they’re still entitled to basic legal protections like the ability to challenge their detention or removal in immigration court. That’s why immigration courts exist in the first place. Also, ICE can’t just deport someone ‘for any reason’ on the spot.

"Due process" isn't a static thing. It is situational. An illegal is always subject to immediate deportation at the "due process" of being detained by ICE for ANY reason. The "due process" is only verification they are here illegally. You are projecting in a "right" that simply isn't there.

@MikeMcCroskey @HenryFrank02 that’s the law of the land. DUE Process, so yes.

@nickshirleyy @thepondering_ Well answered.

@thepondering_ Right here, looks like it just got exposed. Eliminate all fraud, waste and abuse 🤝 You guys should go out and expose fraud in America since you always are calling on me… it’s a lot harder than ranting behind a desk all day. I can only be in one place at a time unfortunately 😩

yo where nick shirley at

@PawlowskiMario @nickshirleyy @VladTheInflator @thepondering_ Oh, the irony of what you just posted.

@nickshirleyy @VladTheInflator @thepondering_ You think you are a star or something? No boy, you are a partisan fraud. One day someone will expose you

@JellyBean_73 @leonopteryz @HenryFrank02 Not stupid. Overtly corrupt about elections - - stacking the census and ballot harvesting with impunity.

@MikeMcCroskey @leonopteryz @HenryFrank02 I know right! Just when you thought Democrats couldn't possibly be more stupid, they prove us wrong again.

@leonopteryz @HenryFrank02 Sooooo . . . someone confesses to fraud, and your answer is no deportation until Anericans pay for a trial conviction. Brilliant.

The debate wasn't over whether fraud is acceptable both sides agree it's illegal. The 'No' votes primarily argued that current laws already allow for these deportations and that the new bill’s language allowing removal based on 'admissions' rather than just 'convictions' could bypass standard due process. stop blaming democrats for YOUR awful party
