You need to grow up in Iran. Go to school under Islamic law, experienced get beaten up for showing your hair, go to prison for speaking up receiving lashes where fear is part of your daily education, then you will understand my feelings in front of this Mosque in Hamburg. This Blue Mosque and more the 50 more across Germany were built by the regime of Iran under the protection of your laws, your tolerance, your tax system, and your religious freedom. And what did Europe get in return? A new generation taught that the West is evil while Hamas, Hezbollah, and the IRGC are somehow “resistance.”

Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down

@KXPriestess @JenniferSey @salltweets There is no such thing as a “trans” woman. There are just women, and men who are pretending to be women. As such, the majority of the world isn’t interested in playing along with delusion.

I'm still thinking about @salltweets. All weekend. Just keep thinking about her and her fight. She was ordered by the Australian court to pay a man $120k (Australian dollars) because she identified him correctly as a man, and didn't allow him on her female only social media app. For the rest of the weekend, 10% of purchases at @xx_xyathletics will go to support Sall's expenses (donated by me, not the brand). If you prefer you can also donate directly. Link up next. You can also change your profile pic to show support if you are so inclined.

Mass immigration isn’t just policy, it’s COMMUNISM with an extra twist for the taxpayer… They flood your neighborhoods with people you never voted on or agreed to, then build low-income housing and mass transit right next door so there’s literally no escape. You’re forced to live with it. You’re forced to pay for it. You get a front-row seat to the consequences every single day , whether you wanted any of this or not. They never asked your permission. The only way out is mass deportations. There is no other path... #MassDeportationsNow

@JohnCornyn Why did you repost Republicans Against Trump?

@Lily4Liberty What a lovely tribute to a lovely women. God bless you.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY Here is my tribute to my mother in heaven A tribute to resilience and resistance on Mother’s Day My mother Huai Bin passed away in November 2020 at the age of 77 in Colorado. Her life in China was so tragic, and it took me a long time to write about her life and death because I had to confront the complex feelings and meaning of her legacy. I loved my mother for her kind and gentle soul. She was meek, although often in ways I did not understand: bulliable, submissive, and conflict averse. Her interactions with Chinese Communist Party officials were characterized by obedience and tolerance of their inhumane treatment of people like herself. I am haunted by a childhood memory of when she got on her knees and begged a CCP official for a raise at her factory job. She sacrificed her dignity only to be cruelly denied. I used to assume I was entirely my father’s child. He was a fighter whose strength was like the factory steel he helped produce: firm, resilient, and tough. I spent my life assuming that my defiant nature was the product of my father. Now I am not so sure. In an unremarkable village in Penshan County, Sichuan Province, China, a sickly child cursed by fate was born prematurely. Her mother believed her too weak to survive and left her to die in peace, yet the child refused. Fighting through labored breathing, she produced a cry so loud and enduring that her mother could no longer ignore it. She fed that night and would live to see the morning. Growing up poor with an elementary education and introverted personality, she resigned herself to a life of labor in a state-run factory in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan. The oppression of her social condition was matched by her physicality: at 4'9", she was frail and severely nearsighted. Despite this, she won the love and adoration of my father, an illiterate orphan whom she married and blessed with three children. Raising children under Mao’s regime was an arduous burden. We lived in a primitive worker’s row house sharing one restroom and faucet with eight other families. We were literally dirt-poor; our mud floor would sprout mushrooms after flooding. We barely survived on food rationing coupons from the government. Despite all this, my mother’s heart never hardened. She was known for approaching beggars in the street with small gifts and the words: “Buddha bless you!” Her generosity defied the cruelty of her reality. Amid a very hard life, she found happiness in music (which she only sang after a little Chinese moonshine). She was elegant, clean, and loved pretty, pink clothing, which was frowned upon under Mao’s regime. Using what little money she saved to buy pink fabrics was a small act of defiance against Mao’s Cultural Revolution. Happiness was often short-lived, however, as she was ill most of the time and required frequent care in the decrepit state-run local hospitals, a product of socialized medicine. While undergoing surgery in the 1980s, she received a blood transfusion infected with syphilis that was discovered a decade later when I brought my mother to the United States in 1995. Despite a course of antibiotics, her brain had already suffered the consequences of neurosyphilis. She displayed signs of dementia at the age of 59. Though she was ill, America offered my mother a degree of peace, even if it was momentary. She and my father converted to Christianity and lived peacefully, attending a Chinese church every Sunday. In the end, her advanced dementia collided with COVID-19, and after being hospitalized, she died alone in November 2020. My mother’s legacy is one of defiance. It began with a cry that defied death, lived through compassion that defied pain, and endures in me. This revelation testifies to the miracle of God’s design — subtle, yet purposeful. God imbues in each of us a part of his divine essence. For my mother, she bore the suffering and submission to pain that Christ knew; not out of weakness, but out of love for her family, so that they would survive. She embraced God’s Word that we defy evil not through the hardening of our hearts, but through turning the other cheek and committing to compassion. Happy Mother's Day. I love you, Mom. I know you are very proud of me running for Congress in NH and fighting for the mothers and daughters today. I pray for all the mothers in the world never suffer or endure your tragic fate under communism. lilytangwilliams.com

Most people hear “deport only the worst of the worst” and think, “Yeah, that sounds fair and targeted.” That’s exactly why it’s such a perfect soundbite, it feels reasonable to people who don’t fully understand what we’re really up against. As I explained in Part 2 of my NPA podcast, it’s actually code for de facto amnesty for the other 100+ million illegal aliens already here. It also messages the next wave it will attract. Every single one of them is still crushing American wages, packing our ERs and classrooms, and turning sanctuary cities into magnets for more chaos. I didn’t read this in a think tank. I lived it for decades as a Border Patrol Commander-at-Large. If you want the unfiltered truth from someone who was in the fight, not the media spin, this 23-minute interview will completely rewire how you see the immigration debate. It’s not just about crime. It’s about whether America keeps working for Americans. Watch it here. Then decide if “worst of the worst” still sounds like a plan… or a trap..... @NatPoliceAssociation

When I was about five or six years old, my uncle, who had never been religious and had lost all his wealth in a bad business deal in Kuwait after the Gulf War, decided to return to Allah and become a devout Muslim. I remember he went to Pakistan or Afghanistan for six months on a mission trip. When he came back, the first thing he did was drag our huge TV outside and throw it in the garbage and started taking me with him to the mosque five times a day. I grew up exposed to what was said inside the da’wah groups. My uncle was not a jihadi, but he was deeply involved in da’wah, Islamic evangelism. For years, I accompanied him during summers and weekends on mission trips across Jordan, visiting mosques around the country with other members of the da’wah movement. I still remember visiting Al-Hajar Mosque in the city of Zarqa, the same mosque of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, years before he became known. When I was eleven, my parents moved to another city, and I stopped going with my uncle. But when I was seventeen, the protests that erupted across the Islamic world after the Danish cartoons of Muhammad pulled me back to the mosque, and I spent another year with da’wah groups, until God miraculously changed my life and I converted to Christianity. Those years in the da’wah movement as a young kid gave me an exceptional ability to see through these people. The moment someone speaks, I can diagnose how infected he is with the spirit of jihad. I wish I could lend my eyes to Western governments so they could see how deeply their institutions have been infiltrated. The majority of those who present themselves as “moderate” or “normal” Muslims in Islamic organisations or Media, are on a mission. Once naturalized, they know exactly how to exploit the system to advance the goals of da'wah.

What book are you reading right now?

When you think of the relationship between Muslims and jihad, think of polygamy. Polygamy is explicitly permitted in Islam. Muslim men are allowed to marry up to four wives. And yet, the vast majority of Muslims don’t practice it. Why? Is it because they’ve rejected the idea in favor of monogamy? Of course not. It’s because polygamy is inconvenient in today’s world, financially burdensome, legally complex, and socially stigmatized. But remove those barriers, and any Muslim who desires four wives and can manage them will feel religiously entitled to pursue it. It’s not a question of belief, it’s a question of opportunity. Jihad operates the same way. The command to fight non-Muslims and subject all of humanity to the rule of Allah is central to Islamic doctrine. But how many Muslims are actively engaged in jihad today? A tiny fraction. Is it because the rest reject the theology of jihad? No. It's because the modern world, nation-state laws, surveillance, and military supremacy, makes it impractical. If the external restraints were removed, if the circumstances allowed, what would stop millions from joining the fight?

@ScottPresler @TimMurtaugh @Cline4Virginia Done.

No one did more to help stop the unconstitutional gerrymandered Virginia maps than Congressman Ben Cline (R-VA). Sir, you’re a hero. You deserve re-election this November. Everyone, please take a moment to FOLLOW 👉 @Cline4Virginia.

@listen2tish Or you could take a play out of RFK Jr.’s book and UNITE the voters and then do incredible things together. AIM up!

A lot of people in my comments are telling me to drop out and support Spencer Pratt for Mayor. I support Spencer. I support ANYONE willing to challenge the failed leadership that got Los Angeles into this condition. But let’s be clear: nearly half of voters are STILL undecided, and I want Los Angeles to know — I’m still here. This race should be about the future of LA, not recycling the same politicians who’ve already had years to fix it. I believe the final two should be outsiders who are actually willing to disrupt the system. Me and Spencer. Not Karen. Not Nithya. 25 days until June 2nd. Ask me directly about my policies at HYMAN4MAYOR.COM #LosAngeles #Mayor #Debate #SpencerPratt #TishHyman #Hyman4Mayor

Gun owners: All issues are downstream of immigration. Most new immigrants who naturalize vote Democrat. Democrats want your guns via bans, red flags, and registries. Uncontrolled immigration + citizenship = permanent electorate against the 2A. Secure the border or watch your rights disappear one new voter at a time. This is math, not malice

@GavinNewsom The Constitution prohibits racial gerrymandering

I’m sorry I am now a broken record but oh my God I did not have Spencer Pratt, exposing Karen Bass’s entire communist, revolution history during the race for mayor in Los Angeles. I mean the best part about this is everything he’s saying is completely 100% true. So if you don’t know who Karen Bass is, you should watch this video and ask yourself why are there so many Democrat politicians training in Cuba before being elected into powerful positions in American public office?

@KamalaHarris “Every American should have the right to kill a baby.”

Mifepristone is safe and effective health care, and access to health care should be a right for every American.

@GovernorVA Murderer.

Virginia is the only state in the South that hasn’t restricted women’s reproductive rights since the Dobbs decision. And under my watch, it will stay that way.
 
In Virginia, healthcare decisions about contraception, fertility treatments, and reproductive care will continue to be made between women and their doctors — not by politicians. That’s a promise I’ve made, and it’s a promise I intend to keep.

Dear @DrCatharineY, it's not much of a paradox. My house cat Fido is a feline; the wild lion in Botswana is a feline. They are both felines and yet I've evolved the perceptual and cognitive systems to recognize that I should not cuddle with both of them with equal alacrity. @elonmusk is an immigrant; so is Ahmad, the camp counsellor from the Al-Qaeda summer camp. They are both immigrants but not equally likely to assimilate in the West. Hope this helps.

The blowback on @virginia_tech should be absolutely staggering in depth and scope, and permanent in its effect. The entire administration AT LEAST should lose their jobs, and donor/benefactors should run away in DROVES. @VT_Alumni should be mortified, and demand accountability.
