This just isn't true. Lifespans of adults in Victorian England, for example, were not materially lower than today's lifespans. It is totally true that we live in a gerontocracy, but it's not because we're living longer; it's because our old people suck.
Today I am formally endorsing @JohnCornyn. #txlege
Friendly reminder that "under God" was not added to the Pledge of Allegiance until the 1950s.
Former Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino disagrees with the recent shift in the Trump administration to focus on targeted immigration enforcement & prioritizing criminals. “You want results? You create fear. Mass operations. Roving patrols. Zero mixed signals,” Bovino says.
Christian college leaders are warning that a proposed Trump administration rule tying federal student aid to graduates’ earnings could devastate programs training pastors, teachers, counselors, and social workers. Critics say the policy would penalize service-oriented and faith-based careers by measuring educational value primarily through income. roysreport.com/christian-coll…

Targeted enforcement under Tom Homan sounds smart on TV. It’s actually one of the dumbest uses of manpower I’ve ever heard of. Just laid it out on @MegynKellyShow Here’s a real-world system failure straight from CBP officers who lived it and then relayed to me as having happened today: They’re running surveillance on a Colombian crew tied to a wave of residential burglaries in Los Angeles. Four officers, full day on the house. They watch the suspect’s three kids walk out. Then two other women roll up with four more kids and go inside. While they’re sitting there doing “precision” work, eight other illegals just stroll right past their position like it’s a parade. End of shift? One guy in custody. The other 17? Still here! Four trained officers. Hours of surveillance. One arrest. That’s what “targeted enforcement” actually looks like on the ground. It’s not strategy — it’s a jobs program for bureaucrats who want to look busy while the border starts to deteriorate and American families keep getting robbed. You want results? You create fear. Mass operations. Roving patrols. Zero mixed signals. Anything less is just expensive theater that tells every illegal in the country: “Relax, they’re only coming for the ‘bad ones’… eventually.” The system is broken by design. We’re not fixing it with teaspoons.

The scandal hiding in plain sight is the collapse of American education. And no 2028 candidates -- aside from Rahm Emanuel -- are talking about it.
How would knowing that Covid came from a lab - assuming for the sake of argument that it did, and that we could know that with certainty - have saved lives? What would have been different about our response?
