My dear American friends, We British Christians would get excited when, once a year, Queen Elizabeth would make a mild but sincere reference to the love of Jesus Christ in her Christmas address. In Charlie Kirks' Memorial service, watched by tens of millions, I just heard: - Multiple clear presentations of the gospel from men like @robmccoyus and @DrFrankTurek with clear calls to repentance and faith - Worship songs full of Scripture sung by tens of thousands live and millions at home - Personal testimonies of lives transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers - Demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, child-rearing and family - Calls to Romans 13 for the government to bear the sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked - Declarations of spiritual warfare on the forces of evil and promises to endure no matter the cost - Calls to be prophets and call the nation to repent - More Scripture references and Bible readings than I can count - And a widow publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers on the cross. All of it done before, and by, the most powerful people in your nation and the world. You guys should be on your knees thanking God for your country. It is a light to the world. Never stop fighting for it.

Charlie Kirk’s assassin Tyler Robinson, 22, killed him because he hated his opinions and thought he was a fascist. Yet ironically, HE was the fascist, killing someone to silence their opposing views. The woke left love to say ‘speech is violent.’ It’s not - violence is.

It’s all about Jesus.

Boycott Ghost of Yotei. Zero tolerance to woke games made by woke activists. Keep your wallets tightly shut.

Democrats have dehumanized Conservatives. It started with Obama calling us bitter Americans who cling to our guns and our religion. It was Hillary Clinton calling us an irredeemable basket of deplorables. It was Joe Biden calling us the dregs of society. It was Maxine Waters telling them to absolutely harass us in restaurants and grocery stores. They called us Nazis and Hitler. They called us homophobes and bigots and racists and xenophobes. I hold all them responsible. They all have blood on their hands today.

@drmarkhyman Long live @QOtrera

I want to be able to mountain bike through the desert when I’m 100. That’s not a dream, it’s a goal. I’ve spent decades helping people reimagine what’s possible when it comes to health and aging. But in medicine, too often we wait until symptoms show up. By then, it can be too late. I’ve spent my career trying to flip that script. Now, I’m personally gifting 10 individuals an MRI scan. More info on the MRI Scan and how to get a gifted one below.

I’m really getting sick and tired of asking this same question over and over and over without anyone having an answer, but I feel it is my duty to ask it again: How is it possible to achieve the bill Elon Musk, Thomas Massie and Rand Paul want without 60 votes in the Senate? I mean, if someone has a solid path for such a thing I will totally get behind it, but thus far there are zero living humans who can express that solid path.

Today was incredibly surreal. I’ve spent my entire career fighting for clean, safe food—free from toxic chemicals like the food dyes that were finally banned today. I’m deeply grateful to my friend, Commissioner @DrMakaryFDA, for his bold leadership and commitment to reshaping our food system to promote health instead of fueling disease. This is just one step—but a powerful and essential one. I was honored to stand alongside fellow real food warriors in this long-overdue move toward a safer, smarter future. @calleymeans @thefoodbabe @SecKennedy @MorriseyWV @DrJBhattacharya. What a day!

Martyn Iles 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.

Welcome @US_FDA Commissioner Dr. Martin Makary and @NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. Let’s restore @HHSgov health agencies to their rich tradition of gold-standard, evidence-based science to tackle the chronic disease epidemic and Make America Healthy Again. The revolution begins today!

Texas Just Made History—SB 25 Passes Unanimously! Restoring daily PE, eliminating toxic additives from school meals, and prioritizing real nutrition education. This is a landmark step toward a healthier future. Who's next? ltgov.texas.gov/2025/03/12/lt-…

Only Trump could make liberals hate electric cars.

This is incredibly important for anyone suffering from any form of mental illness. The brain simply cannot function effectively when it’s inflamed - and inflammation & metabolic syndrome go hand in hand. Ketosis helps the body to quell inflammation and as a side effect, enables the brain to recover to its natural equilibrium.

@drmarkhyman For 15 months now I’ve been slowly making little changes to my lifestyle. I had such an all or nothing mentality prior and it was really holding me back. Taking charge of your health is an elephant, you can’t eat it all in one sitting. Does this resonate with you?

Something new is coming… and I need your input. I’ve spent decades diving deep into the root causes of disease—how food, environment, stress, and modern medicine shape our health. But I realize something: science is nothing without stories. So, I’m about to record something different. A human interest story—one that helps you imagine your own health journey and understand how I became obsessed with functional medicine, root-cause healing, and fixing our broken system. But I want to make sure it resonates. So what questions do you want answered — about me, my health journey, functional medicine or healing chronic conditions? Or anything else that you’ve been wondering. Reply in comments!

In this thread I'll respond to some of what I've seen out there. Let's start with Niall: 1) On the general background, yes, you have been more right than wrong on a lot of the details of the conflict. Which is why I'm surprised to hear you call the administration's posture "appeasement." We are negotiating to end the conflict. It is "appeasement" only if you think the Ukrainians have a credible pathway to victory. They don't, so it's not. 2) As far as I can tell, accusations of "appeasement" hinge on a few arguments (not all of them from Niall, to be clear). The first is a criticism that we're even talking to the Russians. Well, the President believes to conduct diplomacy, you actually have to speak to people. This used to be called statesmanship. Second, the idea--based often on fake media reports--that we've "given the Russians everything they want." Third, that if we just passed another aid package, Ukraine would roll all the way to Moscow, raise Navalny from the dead, and install a democratic and free leader to Russia (I exaggerate, but only a little). All of these arguments are provably, demonstrably false. Many people who have gotten everything wrong about Russia say they know what Russia wants. Many people who know the media reports fake garbage take anonymously sourced reports on a complex negotiation as gospel truth. But the bigger issue, as I think Niall knows, is that most of those loudly shouting "appeasement" are people who aren't dealing with the reality on the ground. 3) On the specifics of the negotiation, I"m not confirming details publicly for obvious reasons, but much of what I've seen leaked ranges from entirely bogus to missing critical info. The president has set goals for the negotiation, and I am biased, but I think he's awfully good at this. But we're not going to telegraph our negotiating posture to make people feel better. The president is trying to achieve a lasting piece, not massage the egos or anxieties of people waving Ukraine flags. The idea that the President of the United States has to start the negotiation by saying "maybe we'll let Ukraine into NATO" defies all common sense. Again, it's not appeasement to acknowledge the realities on the ground--realities President Trump has pointed to for years in some cases. 4) Many of the subjective criticisms amount to pearl clutching that don't ultimately matter. I'm happy to defend POTUS's criticisms of the Ukrainian leadership (not that it matters, because he's the president, but I agree with him). You're welcome to disagree. But these critiques of POTUS don't bear on the war or on his negotiation to end it.

What the world saw tonight between President Trump and Elon Musk is that the world’s most powerful man and the world’s richest man are actual friends. This is what the left and the haters will never properly account for. I’ve tried to explain this to people for years. President Trump is a good man who loves America and has genuine friendships that create more power and momentum for positive change than any pundit will ever be able to commentate on or calculate. All patriotic Americans should wish them both God speed and much success.

For my entire career, I have worked toward this moment—a moment when the devastating twin crises of chronic disease and mental health in America are finally placed under a national magnifying glass. I never thought I’d see the day when this level of attention was directed toward the epidemic of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune disorders, and the mental health struggles affecting millions of Americans, including our children. whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

This 'why do you care about a tiny fraction of the population?' line is, and always was, utterly ridiculous. Gender ideology has undermined freedom of speech, scientific truth, gay rights, and women's and girls' safety, privacy and dignity. It's also caused irreparable physical damage to vulnerable kids. Nobody voted for it, the vast majority of people disagree with it, yet it has been imposed, top down, by politicians, healthcare bodies, academia, sections of the media, celebrities and even the police. Its activists have threatened and enacted violence on those who've dared oppose it. People have been defamed and discriminated against for questioning it. Jobs have been lost and lives have been ruined, all for the crime of knowing that sex is real and matters. When the smoke clears, it will be only too evident that this was never about a so-called vulnerable minority, notwithstanding the fact that some very vulnerable people have been harmed. The power dynamics underpinning our society have been reinforced, not dismantled. The loudest voices throughout this entire fiasco have been people insulated from consequences by their wealth and/or status. They aren't likely to find themselves locked in a prison cell with a 6'4" rapist who's decided his name's now Dolores. They don't need state-funded rape crisis centres, nor do they ever frequent high street changing rooms. They simper from talk show sofas about those nasty far-right bigots who don't want penises swinging around the girls' showers, secure in the knowledge that their private pool remains the safe place it always was. Those who've benefited most from gender identity ideology are men, both trans-identified and not. Some have been rewarded for having a cross-dressing kink by access to all spaces previously reserved for women. Others have parlayed their delicious new victim status into an excuse to threaten, assault and harass women. Non-trans-identified leftybros have found a magnificent platform from which to display their own impeccably progressive credentials, by jeering and sneering at the needs of women and girls, all while patting themselves on the back for giving away rights that aren't theirs. The actual victims in this mess have been women and children, especially the most vulnerable, gay people who've resisted the movement and paid a horrible price, and regular people working in environments where one misplaced pronoun could see you vilified or constructively dismissed. Do not tell me this is about a tiny minority. This movement has impacted society in disastrous ways, and if you had any sense, you'd be quietly deleting every trace of activist mantras, ad hominem attacks, false equivalence and circular arguments from your X feeds, because the day is fast approaching when you'll want to pretend you always saw through the craziness and never believed it for a second.

For the last four years before President Trump’s inauguration we had no democracy. Joe Biden was a puppet in charge of nothing. The corporate media and Democrat Party engaged in a monstrous coverup to conceal this now indisputable truth. Our government was instead run by unelected bureaucrats who ruthlessly weaponized state power against their political enemies, engineered mass illegal voting in our elections, installed a draconian censorship regime, instituted a colossal system of state-sponsored racial discrimination, orchestrated a vast border invasion to try to permanently alter the balance of power, trafficked half a million children across the border, allowed criminals to freely terrorize our citizens, and raided the treasury to fund a political army of marxist radicals in a bid for permanent control over US institutions. President Trump saved America and democracy itself.
