A memorable patriotic moment from John Wayne in Swing Out, Sweet Land (1970). 🇺🇸 “Tomorrow remember, this is my country and I’m going to do good for it. Just might work! We’ll never know unless we give it a fair try… God Bless America!” — John Wayne

In the 1930s to the early 60s, Americans were convinced smoking was healthy. Doctors proudly appeared in cigarette ads. “More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette.” The public was given a clear message: If physicians smoked themselves, how dangerous could it possibly be? At its peak, more than 42% of American adults smoked, with rates among men climbing as high as 57%. Business was booming. But behind the scenes, tobacco companies already knew smoking was linked to deadly disease. Internal research pointed to the dangers early, yet the industry spent years funding doubt, attacking critics, and delaying public awareness long enough to keep the machine running. Then came January 11, 1964. The U.S. Surgeon General released the report that changed everything: smoking causes lung cancer and other deadly illnesses. Almost overnight, one of the most trusted health narratives in America began to collapse. And it wasn’t the only one. In the 1940s and 1950s, lobotomies were celebrated as a revolutionary treatment for mental illness. Walter Freeman traveled the country performing thousands of “ice-pick” procedures, sometimes in minutes, sometimes on children. The technique even earned a Nobel Prize. Years later, it was widely condemned as barbaric, after leaving countless patients permanently damaged. Today, we look back at both eras with disbelief and wonder how entire generations came to trust ideas that later proved so catastrophically wrong. But the more uncomfortable question is harder to escape: How many medical “certainties” we trust today will future generations one day look back on the same way? 🧵

If legislators always vote with the President, we have a king. If legislators always vote with the prevailing wind, we have mob rule. If legislators always vote with the Constitution, we have a Republic.

Thomas Sowell: "We're raising whole generations who regard facts as optional. They are being taught that it's important to have views, they are not being taught that it's important to know what you are talking about."

George Carlin was on point here Words are chosen for a specific reason

Thomas Sowell: “I don’t want people making decisions who don’t pay the price of their decisions. That’s what politics is all about—you don’t pay the price of your decisions.”

“Armed citizens stopped 48% of all shooters last year, but the FBI lied about those numbers. They recorded none. Zero percent.”

Was not ready for Eric Church to deliver the best commencement speech I’ve ever heard. Six guitar strings. Six pillars of a life. Faith. Family. Spouse. Ambition. Community. You. Tune them when you’re whole, not just when you’re broken. Watch the whole thing.

Alright everyone can pack it up for this year’s graduation commencement speeches because Eric Church gave the best one I’ve ever heard. 🔥

“Consumers don't produce inflation. Producers don't produce inflation. Inflation is produced only by too much government spending and too much government creation of money, and nothing else.” — Milton Friedman

Once again, a would be mass killer's violent rampage (using a gun that's illegal to own in that state) was only stopped when a good guy with a gun showed up and turned the homicide scene into a two way range. Will this cause the anti-gun communists that run Massachusetts to ease restrictions on carrying firearms and the types of firearms law abiding citizens can own? No. Of course not. Communists are vaccinated from logic and facts... #CityLife #cambridge #USMC #diversity #marines #felon #decay #3rdWorld #police #boston #massachusetts #FAFO #urban #democrats #ConcealedCarry
