@MayorFrey Today is Memorial Day…perhaps you are unaware of that.

@BadgedPatriot Laws that violate the constitution are unconstitutional, evern if allowed to be enforced. On the other hand, common sense - “Don’t take your guns to town, son, leave your guns at home.”
English

A previous post turned in to an all out meltdown on guns. For clarification, here is the law in Tennessee:
For handguns, constitutional carry. You can carry loaded open or concealed without a permit.
Long guns/rifles, can be carried openly but CANNOT be loaded. Ammo CAN NOT be anywhere nearby. That means nowhere you can grab it to load it. If you do, its a crime.👮♂️🚔

@FrankPallone Absolutely no foreigner on a tourist visa, or a student visa is allowed to work here or overstay and apply for a green card. No one on a temporary work visa is allowed to stay longer than their work visa and apply for a green card. No foreigner is your constituent.
English

If you've played by the rules and lawfully waited for years just for a chance at the American dream, Trump now wants you to leave the country, risk your job, and uproot your family to get a green card.
By closing more and more legal pathways to citizenship, Trump keeps betraying America's promise.
Homeland Security@DHSgov
An alien who is in the U.S. temporarily and wants a Green Card must return to their home country to apply. This policy allows our immigration system to function as the law intended instead of incentivizing loopholes. The era of abusing our nation’s immigration system is over.

@FischerKing64 Are you here for business expansion and the fruits of your postings, or are you simply here in the town square?

@MaryBowdenMD Even at Sunday morning church service, very few are wearing a suit, and likely without a tie. Seems like prior to 2020, the attire included a suit and tie, and ladies were in a nice dress, when decorum was expected. Slouchy attire seems to be the norm nowadays.

@OleBeeM @MaryBowdenMD Sounds like you are missing her point, and you are Really antagonistic.

@jenteach13 Homeschool teachers generally do quite well with their students, with any demand for higher pay.

A 22-year-old graduate student in Kazakhstan got so angry at journal paywalls in 2011 that she built a pirate website holding 88 million scientific papers, and last month she turned the whole thing into an AI that lets you ask one question and get the actual research as the answer.
Her name is Alexandra Elbakyan, and the website is called Sci-Hub.
The AI she just launched is called Sci-Bot. It lives at sci-bot.ru and almost nobody outside academia knows it exists yet.
Here is the story, because it is one of the strangest things to happen in science publishing in the last 50 years.
Elbakyan was born in Almaty in 1988, the year the Soviet Union started to collapse. She taught herself programming at 12. She read Soviet science books that explained things her family used to call miracles. She got into computer security at university and graduated in 2009 with a degree she barely needed because by then she was already a serious hacker.
Alexandra moved to Moscow that fall. Then Germany. Then a research internship in the United States. She was working on brain-computer interfaces, the kind of research that requires you to read hundreds of papers a year just to keep up with the field.
And every single one of those papers was locked behind a journal paywall that cost between 30 and 50 dollars to read once.
She did the math. A graduate student in Kazakhstan could not afford to read science.
The first thing she did was learn how to get around the paywalls one paper at a time. She passed the trick around to other students. They asked her for papers constantly. She got tired of doing it manually.
So in September 2011, in three days, she wrote a script that automated the whole thing. A user pastes a DOI. The script logs in through a donated institutional credential. The paper comes back free. The website caches it.
The next person who asks for that paper gets it instantly because the previous request already saved a copy.
That was Sci-Hub. Three days of code. One graduate student. Done.
15 years later, the cache holds 88 million scientific papers. Almost every piece of scholarly literature published before 2020 is sitting on her servers. Researchers in 190 countries use it. Studies in Nature have shown that roughly half of all academic paper downloads worldwide now go through Sci-Hub, not the publishers who actually own the copyrights.
Elsevier sued her in 2015 and won a 15 million dollar judgment. She did not pay. The American Chemical Society sued her and won an injunction. She did not comply. Courts in India, France, Russia, and the UK have tried to block the domain. She just moves it. Sci-hub.se. Sci-hub.ru. Sci-hub.ee. The site has had over 20 domains and is still up.
Nature put her on its list of the 10 people who mattered most to science in 2016. The New York Times compared her to Edward Snowden. The Verge called her the pirate queen of science.
She has not been to the United States in over a decade because she would be arrested at the airport.
The Sci-Bot launch in April 2026 is the part that nobody is talking about.
She took the 88 million paper database and put a small language model on top of it. You ask a question in plain English. The model searches the entire shadow library, pulls the relevant papers, synthesizes an answer grounded in real citations, and links you to the full text of every source. Free. No login. No institutional credential. No paywall.
Three real scientists tested it for a Chemical and Engineering News article last month. They asked it medical and chemistry questions. The radiologist said the answer he got was usable. The chemist said the gaps in recent literature were obvious but the older science was solid. The publisher community is furious.
What she built is what the paid academic AI tools are trying to build. Except the paid ones are limited to what their parent publisher legally owns. Hers is limited to almost nothing.
Alexandra still lives somewhere in Russia. She does not give her address. She does not do video interviews. She gives talks over Skype with the camera off. She runs the largest illegal library in human history from a laptop and a donation page.
A graduate student who could not afford to read science built the system the entire scientific community now quietly depends on.
The publishers have spent a decade trying to shut her down.
She just shipped an AI that makes their entire business model outdated.

I agree.
And here's a story contextualizing why.
I was at Tom Woods’ house for a meetup and Scott Horton was giving a short talk.
During the talk, Horton claimed that the Pulse Nightclub shooting in Orland where 49 people were murdered by Omar Mateen was a consequence of "blowback."
As I heard him say this, my face turned to a scowl.
I knew this story.
I knew that "blowback" made absolutely no sense.
You see, Omar Mateen mentioned in his 911 call that this was made about the attacks in Syria and he was pledging his life to ISIS.
Here's the thing: Omar Mateen wasn't Syrian.
In fact, Omar Mateen's family moved from Afghanistan in the 1980s and Omar was birthed in a JEWISH HOSPITAL in NEW YORK!
So how is it that an American man, who's family is not from Syria, who was born in New York in a Jewish hospital, is a product of "blowback?"
The CIA did not run him any weapons.
He was not personally affected by the attacks where maybe a family member could have died.
His attack was on random gay people at a gay night club.
It was at this moment that I realized Scott Horton had no sense of cause-and-effect relationships.
Instead of being accurate that Omar Mateen was radicalized by teachings from joining a Mosque, he tried to turn Omar's mass murder of random gay people into an "underdog" cry of resistance.
There was nothing about "resistance" with this act.
It was depraved mass murder against people completely unrelated to anything going on in Syria.
I started to deep-dive Scott Horton's history and I saw this pattern I just witnessed up-close.
Gross generalizations about people and events where the actors and actions did not align with the cause and effects.
He would use the anecdotal fallacy to draw deep demonization of anyone or anything he stood against, which was especially anything to do with Israel, Zionism, or Western state hegemony.
It was a turning point for me as I finally came to understand who Scott Horton really is.
He never really drifted from his core history of being a leftist punk skateboarder who simply took his leftist class theories and applied them lop-sided through the veneer of "libertarianism."
There was never any nuance about the actors and actions when it came to what he critiqued.
And how could he possible have it?
The man has spent a career podcasting and writing on global affairs yet has never himself been to these places and done the hard work of actually observing up-close the conflicts and interviewing people on both sides to get an understanding.
As his ideas are donated because they're not coming from primary sourcing, you can see the pattern of how he gets his ideas.
He cites to Al Jazeera, The Gaza Health Ministry, Russia Today, The Grayzone, and a host of leftist media whose socialist and communist media heads share his "antiwar" mentality - just from an even stronger leftist bent.
I want you to actually fact check me on this. Go look at his sourcing on all his 30+ years of articles with Antiwar dot com.
It's out there in the open to see.
So Scott Horton does not help libertarians become better thinkers for liberty by giving them a more robust and nuanced approach to foreign conflicts that properly weighs the totality of real foreign threats and terror groups.
In his worldview, the world is largely just captured by Israeli Zionists and nobody has any material blame, agency, or threat to pose as compared to the Zionist class.
Just like communists blame capitalists and the bourgeois, so does Horton blame "Zionists/Zionism" as his boogeyman for every ill in the world.
He will downplay mass murder in Iran and Chinese state takeovers of industry so long as it maintains a focus on Israel and "Western Zionism" as the ultimate threats.
And this is why I completely distanced and dissociated from Horton and his lot of comrades whose worldview is actually just the leftist/third-worldist view that hates America and Israel under the premises that they are "Zionist colonialist occupiers."
This type of warped thinking is what gets you the results like in South Africa where the "anti-colonialists" take over in the name of "social justice" for "blowback," and it's just a ruse to institute state central planning for socialist ends.
This messaging does not help libertarianism.
It doesn't ground people in truth and reality.
It just causes them to become allied with communists, socialists, and other third-world leftists in the name of being "Anti-US hegemony" and "anti-Zionism," while, in reality, aiding and promoting those who want to both end Western capitalism and bring about a radical Marxist order.
I want nothing to do with these people and I want nothing to do with those who are trying to upend the Western enlightenment because they think they are being, "anti-war."
NONE of it is "anti-war," because they pooh-pooh the violence of third worldist governments when they mass murder and kidnap people over free speech and free market issues.
They downplay anything they believe will give the CIA and neocons a boner.
That's not dealing in reality.
That's dismissing REAL state violence just because it doesn't go along with the narrative you want to pose.
That's dishonest and shameful.
If you want to have true liberty, you need to reject this all-or-nothing third-worldist mentality that has you rationalizing the violent takeover by socialists, communists, and Islamic-aligned anti-capitalist third worldists who wear the skinsuit of "America first" to get you to support vile socialists like Mamdani under the pretense that they're at least "anti-Zionism" and "for going after the Epstein class."
This rhetoric is being weaponized against you to TRICK YOU into support those who want to actually enslave you and end capitalism.
And I will, for one, will not stand for it.
I can only hope you also agree and do the same.
"¡Viva la libertad, carajo!

On January 6th I followed the crowd into the Capitol and shouted. Police stood by the whole time, hanging out with us and sometimes directing us places.
At one point near the House Chambers I was walking downstairs when a trio of some special section, secret service looking men started pointing guns in my direction.
Confused and annoyed, I walked the other way and when I saw a normal police officer asked him why they were doing that.
He informed me a protestor (Ashli Babbit) had been killed, and advised me to leave the building.
I walked towards the exit and after a short rest on the bench I left.
I harmed nobody and damaged no property that day and complied with all police orders.
What I received for that was a pre-dawn raid at my parents house, where my 1 month post-partum wife and I were staying, on Biden's first day in office. His DOJ had signed the order to arrest me 3 hours after his inauguration.
In the subsequent weeks I received death threats online and harassing phone calls, something that would be ongoing for the next few years.
I was banned from Meta and Paypal. My wife and I were both debanked by PNC and banned from Airbnb. My wife was detained at the airport for hours with our newborn daughter.
I was charged with 4 misdemeanors and the 1512 unconstitutional felony. The government offered to drop the misdemeanors if I pled to the felony. The felony was a lie, so I refused and went to trial.
At trial the prosecution for 2 days straight was allowed to show footage to the jury of things that occurred around the Capitol I wasn't present for "for context." When we asked to put forward footage that contradicted the prosecution's "context" we were not allowed. They could show what they wanted, we could not.
Police officers were then put on the stand for the next 2 days who cried about their experiences. I had no idea who they were. They admitted they never saw me or interacted with me.
Nevertheless like every other J6er, I lost, and was sentenced to 4 years and $22k in fines and restitution. Yet even after the Supreme Court overturned the felony, the judge would not let me out until my misdemeanor sentences of a year were maxed out. Because she can't count she actually kept me in longer - to the extent she intervened at the last minute to make the prison release me on a Sunday, something that is against BOP rules. My family sat outside the prison gates the Friday before practically the whole day waiting in vain because of this pettiness.
But the government wasn't satisfied with their pound of flesh: after my release they took me back in for resentencing, to attempt to have me resentenced after the fact to my misdemeanors consecutively, so I'd be taken from my family again and have another 1.5 years behind bars. This time I won, as they had no legal precedent and it skirted on violating double jeopardy since I had served my full prison time. Even still, it cast a cloud over the holidays and cost me another 20k my family couldn't afford.
People ask whether prison was bad, and yeah of course prison sucked. It was a hard and violent place. I was present for a stabbing, and was lucky to avoid two fights and a race war.
But dealing with Biden's DOJ and the DC Judiciary was the real trauma - they would grind down your spirit by weaponizing the legal system and use the endless procedure to bankrupt you. I had nightmares for months after release that I had somehow been hit with new charges.
By the time I was pardoned by President Trump, I had spent literally every single day of Biden's presidency either in prison or under some form of supervision. I had incurred over $300k in legal fees and over $1 million in lost business.
It was a reign of terror, and yet it was a mere foreshadowing of what they had planned for anyone else who opposed them under Kamala. The country should never forget it.

@giveashitnature Meanwhile the truck is deprecating…Send the bill to the feds.

Breaking news: A Ford dealership in Kansas can't release a sold F-250 because a robin moved in first.
An employee at the dealership located outside Kansas City noticed a robin building a nest on the tire of a brand new F-250 that was already sold. The robin laid four eggs and successfully hatched them.
The truck is now stuck on the lot until the chicks fledge, because the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918 makes it illegal to disturb an active nest of any native bird in the United States.
The buyer has been a good sport. The dealership called it the only F-250 in America currently protected under federal law.

@CongressmanRaja Likely you are sending money back to your family in the home country. My ancestors of 400 years plus the native blood came here, and never sent remittances back to England, and never thought of visiting where they left.

My parents brought me to this country as an infant in search of a better life. That’s what America is all about.
Rep. Nancy Mace’s proposed constitutional amendment to bar naturalized citizens from serving in Congress, on the federal bench, and in Senate-confirmed positions is morally wrong. We must stand shoulder-to-shoulder against the bigotry and hate behind it.

@Ken_LoveTW The confederate states with a much smaller military held off the massive invading army of the north, for four years. The south fought harder with less personnel due to sense of protecting their homeland, against an army that was continually resupplied by newcomers from Europe.
English

China’s Military Is a Paper Dragon. It’ll collapse if it invades Taiwan, even without the US involvement.
One of the biggest myths in geopolitics today is that China’s military is automatically unstoppable against Taiwan simply because China is big.
History says otherwise. Again and again, smaller nations with fewer people and less weaponry have defeated far larger powers because war is not just about numbers. It is about morale, logistics, terrain, leadership, combat experience, and political will.
Vietnam defeated both France and the United States.
Afghanistan exhausted both the Soviet Union and America.
Finland humiliated the Soviet Union during the Winter War despite being massively outnumbered.
Ukraine stopped Russia’s assault on Kyiv even though Russia had overwhelming advantages in manpower, tanks, missiles, and aircraft.
Taiwan has many of the same asymmetric advantages.
Invading Taiwan is not like driving tanks across a flat border. It would be one of the most difficult amphibious invasions in human history and PLA under Xi's command is NOT up to the task.

@timecaptales The atrocities the Yankee states as an invading army thrust upon the southern states, in the destruction of civilian populations, were also prosecutable offenses, if the south would have won.

In order to understand Lincoln's distortion of the Declaration, you need to go back to John Quincy Adams's distortion of the Declaration. This is the Yankee myth of American history, as @brionmcclanahan explains at our March 2026 Conference.

Farmers have figured out that the cheapest pesticide is a strip of flowers.
When you plant wildflowers through a crop field, not just around the edge but in strips running through the middle, you get ladybugs, lacewings, hoverflies, and parasitic wasps living in the field instead of visiting it.
They eat the aphids, the caterpillars, and the mites for free, all summer long.
In controlled trials, fields with tailored flower strips had leaf-beetle numbers 40 to 50% lower and crop damage cut by around 60%, enough to drop below the threshold where spraying was even considered worth it.
The flowers attract a standing army to our fields.
We spent decades engineering chemicals to kill the insects eating the crop, when the insects that eat those insects would have worked for the price of seed.

@JonathanTurley That was fine in the 1700s, but the country is old enough now to mandate that Heritage Americans should be in charge of government.
English

I strongly disagree with the push for a constitutional amendment to bar foreign-born legislators. foxnews.com/politics/mace-… While I have suggested the possible tinyurl.com/f86u4tce, I cannot think of anything more antithetical to our founding than barring foreign-born citizens from Congress. As a nation of immigrants, it is a reaffirmation of our heritage to have these citizens serve in government...
