The American Thinker

@Arrogance_0024 The US Navy alone has more aircraft than the French and Polish Air Force combined. It would be far more costly for you to go save your downed soldier than us. Which is why you’re on the internet bitching about what we did. Stop viewing us through your lens. We aren’t the same.

@learning_yohei Sadly, anime pfp’s are not respected here, as it’s been infiltrated by “incel” leftists morons! Vtuber’s are different though, some are based, others, not as much. But that’s their streaming persona so it’s a bit more respected on X.

@shilongodon06 @JoeyMannarino I’ll counter your argument with this: nationalism and patriotism is never weak, and it’s a great strength. But the left’s perception seems to skew towards every country is amazing and worth continuing the legacy of…besides the United States. That is a position of weakness.

@JoeyMannarino Then how is Singapore different? Mr Trump is of Scottish and German origin, Pete Hegseth of Norwegian origin, Rashida Tlaib of Arab Palestinian origin, Rotimi of Nigerian descent(though his parents are Nigerian born), Joseph Sikora of Polish and Dutch origin so how is it weak?

Diversity is NOT a strength. It is a socially engineered experiment that failed. There’s a reason God put certain people in certain areas of the world. Not all people are meant to mix into some homogenous blob of chaos and confusion.

@JosephCont38960 @ShadowServant4 Fair. Redpilled can sound like nonsense. Happy Easter. Sorry to bother you or whatever!

@RightWingSanity @ShadowServant4 Sounds like you suffer from conspiratorial nonsense

Bro saw a kids movie based on a kids game and immediately went to politics. Who's the one with an agenda again

Everybody else worships a dead philosopher, or a nameless entity orchestrating cosmic events either in favor or out of favor with your personal life. We worship the RISEN Lord Jesus! Died for our sins, and raised from the dead after three days! Happy Easter!

@ShadowServant4 That’s ironic when the LGBT community is always complaining about lack of representation. The agenda is to appease a minority population who seeks the total dismemberment of normalcy and heteronormative society in favor of gender-less slop of all-inclusiveness.

@RightWingSanity "Gay" and "woke" talk a out a bunch of buzzwords. Simple media haven't stuff you don't like isn't an agenda. You are just soft

@JosephCont38960 @ShadowServant4 Context clues will tell you it encompasses DEI fundamentals, LGBT inclusion (needlessly), and themes of white guilt, and feminine empowerment with the goal of making men look stupid, weak, or lesser-than. It rides on the wave of feminism and civil rights, but relies on hatred.

@RightWingSanity @ShadowServant4 Woke is a nothing term

This Easter Sunday, Christians across our nation and around the world celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ—His triumph over sin and death brings redemption, hope, and eternal life. He is risen. Happy Easter!

From Martin Iles, reposted: Having lived in the USA for nearly two years, I've realised something. The USA and the remainder of the Western world are no longer aligned. We all laugh and mock when the Americans say, "Freedom!" because we truly think we're as free as they are. Wrong. We're not. Not even close. The laws, the mindset, and the behaviour, is totally different in this regard. Most of all, the governments are totally different. The USA's convictions around core freedoms are on a scale we do not share. Meanwhile, Donald Trump wins the popular vote, the electoral college, the House, and the Senate... a man who, in every other Western country, is held in open derision, if not contempt. For these and other reasons, we are not the same. Yet the West, including Australia, fully expect to rely on the USA for our very survival. If the world turns bad (which will happen - only a question of time), then the whole West, without America, is toast. So, you may ask - if we're not very aligned ideologically, then it must be that we bring something to the party militarily? Well, no... actually... we don't matter that much militarily. The USA has about 470 ships in its navy, including 11 aircraft carriers, 69 submarines, 75 destroyers... plus 110 new ships in the pipeline. Australia has about 30, including 3 destroyers, 7 frigates and 7 outdated submarines. The UK does a little better, with about 60. Meanwhile, the US has over 14,000 military aircraft. A staggering number. Australia has 252 military aircraft. The UK has 556. The US army has just shy of 1,000,000 uniformed personnel in its military. Australia has about 45,000. The USA spends 3.4% ($968 billion) of its GDP on defence. Australia spends 2% ($36.4 billion). The US spends as much as the next 15 largest military-spending countries (including China) combined. The USA has a fighting culture. The men shoot things (a lot) and hunt things, the veterans get favoured in everything from parking spots to boarding planes. A uniformed young man is thanked in the street a dozen times a day. "Oh, the Americans and their guns!" we say, in our smug way. Yes, they have a warrior culture. We do not. We don't have to, because we're a leech on theirs. How many young British men are willing to fight for their country? Now ask the same regarding young American men. The difference is about as wide as it could be. Militarily, we don't offer squat. Meanwhile, look at the way Australia works against America's interests by loving on China. China made us rich and we stay close. This is a Marxist regime with expansionist aims. Again, you have to spend time in the USA to realise just how vast a gulf there is between us on China. Europe, too. They let China have their way everywhere from Germany to Greenland, all the while importing Islam and sending their own people to court for saying hurty words. Somehow, we have landed the deal of a lifetime with the USA that says, "when the baddies come, you'll save us ok?" Because we can't save ourselves. And we live in peace. But we keep gnawing away at freedoms, keep enabling China, and get flabby and disinterested about our military because Uncle Sam's got it. And, let's be honest, Americans are widely looked down on. To add insult to injury, we don't think that highly of our protectors. So, the USA is finally saying "enough." I am here, I can tell you what the vibe is, and that's it. Trump is doing what people want in this regard. They're over it. And we come across all shocked and hard done by. We behave like people with no self-insight at all. Yes, the global alliance system is all over the place now. From America's perspective, it's about time. And I must say, though I be a proud Australian, I am forced to agree. Something has to change.

🚨 BREAKING: VICTORY FOR FREEDOM! 🇺🇸 The U.S. Senate CRUSHED the government's surveillance coin dream in a stunning 89-10 bipartisan landslide! They passed a bill that blocks the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC no digital dollar, no tracking every transaction, no Big Brother watching your wallet until at least 2030! This is massive. No government-controlled surveillance coin that could freeze your funds, monitor your life, or turn the dollar into a tool of control. The private sector WINS big. Innovation, competition, and real freedom in payments just got a huge green light. And when it comes to fast, borderless, efficient global rails built by the private sector? XRP stands ready as the battle-tested payment rail the world actually needs. The era of central bank digital overreach just hit a massive wall. Freedom > control. Private innovation > government monopoly. The future of money is decentralized and unstoppable. What a day for liberty in finance!

@Rothbard1776 @PressSec Iranian terrorist sleeper cells in America are a problem. And you know where that problem came from? IRAN.

@PressSec Thank God our soldiers were rescued. They never should’ve been there in the first place. Now bring them ALL home and focus on fixing America’s problems (for once).

FROM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP WE GOT HIM! My fellow Americans, over the past several hours, the United States Military pulled off one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History, for one of our incredible Crew Member Officers, who also happens to be a highly respected Colonel, and who I am thrilled to let you know is now SAFE and SOUND! This brave Warrior was behind enemy lines in the treacherous mountains of Iran, being hunted down by our enemies, who were getting closer and closer by the hour, but was never truly alone because his Commander in Chief, Secretary of War, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and fellow War Fighters were monitoring his location 24 hours a day, and diligently planning for his rescue. At my direction, the U.S. Military sent dozens of aircraft, armed with the most lethal weapons in the World, to retrieve him. He sustained injuries, but he will be just fine. This miraculous Search and Rescue Operation comes in addition to a successful rescue of another brave Pilot, yesterday, which we did not confirm, because we did not want to jeopardize our second rescue operation. This is the first time in military memory that two U.S. Pilots have been rescued, separately, deep in Enemy Territory. WE WILL NEVER LEAVE AN AMERICAN WARFIGHTER BEHIND! The fact that we were able to pull off both of these operations, without a SINGLE American killed, or even wounded, just proves once again, that we have achieved overwhelming Air Dominance and Superiority over the Iranian skies. This is a moment that ALL Americans, Republican, Democrat, and everyone else, should be proud of and united around. We truly have the best, most professional, and lethal Military in the History of the World. GOD BLESS AMERICA, GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS, AND HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!

Wisdom! Not a perfect ally, but it’s not just money thrown away, like we do for other countries and get NOTHING in return.

@KaiserLoengramm Most of them are too far gone and beyond reason. One side is certainly overwhelmingly off the deep end and seemingly beyond saving and returning to reality.

I am begging anyone who thinks that the left right divide is just some manufactured thing by Jews or by greedy corporations or by the uniparty or whatever it is attributed to, to go to a leftwing protest, find someone who looks like this, and try and find common ground with them.

So the first "contentious" thing happened; a lot of Japanese people saw Trump saying "other countries can go get that oil" and mentioned Japan, and many Japanese people were saying "what the hell is this guy talking about? Is he crazy!? Screw that!" And so I replied to them, "here is how we see the situation," and they... listened politely and actually had a conversation with me. Typically, Europeans talking to us in English are incredibly insufferable and will only hurl more insults in a situation like that. So this experience really was different. Something I've noticed about talking with the Japanese; they do seem more sincere. I've yet to see someone who says much but conveys little information; or someone who lets catch-phrases substitute for real communication. Now, culturally, it is true Americans tend to be less formal and more friendly, but I think a lot of the warmth Japanese posters are experiencing is a direct result of the earnestness of their posts drawing out real appreciation from Americans. It is only natural to think "this is just another fad, it will blow over." Most things are like that. But from what I can see, you guys are just... *good.* Without embellishment. Of course we're going to like you. That's not going to change tomorrow, or next week, or next decade.

@Ornuth3107 @reddit_lies Quirk chungus got me chuckling ngl

@reddit_lies Most trans "men" don't want to actually be seen as men. They want to be seen as super progressive quirk chungus wholesome "valid" snowflakes and gobble up all the victimization fawning.

lol

Something the doomers, new trump voters, and panicans don't understand: You don't vote Republican because they're going to magically make our lives better overnight. You vote Republican because Democrats will make the quality of life significantly worse. Trump isn't the end of the war, he's only the beginning. This fight will outlive all of us. We'll be passing it down to our children and grandchildren. Democrats have spent decades infiltrating the media, universities, entertainment, and even the everyday programming people absorb through TV, social media, and institutions. Unraveling 60+ years of cultural infiltration and government corruption isn't going to happen in a single four-year term. It’s a long, generational battle.

@unknowDLT I don’t exactly understand how we’ll sell it or use it as collateral if so 🤔

XRP won't always be available.

@PNWConservative I’m tired of these unpatriotic idiots who are able to run for office and keep their positions of power. Supporting terrorists and terrorist proxies. Deport them and make sure they don’t ever come back.

I can’t put my finger on it, but I think something is missing.

@HalfTangible Truth. These allies are snitches and backstabbers, and gutless wretches.

WE DIDN'T WANT TO BE IN UKRAINE. You wanted us there, putting more money than the entire rest of your continent put together. You don't treat us like an ally, you don't even treat us like a friend, you treat us like a piggy bank and attack dog. We asked for mineral rights in exchange for our help, you called us traitor. We asked to buy Greenland (for the hundredth time), you called us traitor. We ask you to do in Iran what we've been doing in Ukraine, you not only say no, but ACTIVELY HELP IRAN who is also btw ACTIVELY HELPING RUSSIA IN UKRAINE The strait of hormuz benefits YOU, not us!
