@SULTAN_AJAJ @julie78787 @Simi_2210_ You’re still joking. Probably solved it in your head and then came back for light-hearted trolling.

@jigsawlogic1 @julie78787 @Simi_2210_ Well, if your answer is correct, then I'm joking, but if my answer is correct, then I'm definitely serious 😂😂😂😂😂

99.9% get this wrong because they forget basic order of operations. What’s "a"?

@SULTAN_AJAJ @julie78787 @Simi_2210_ Let a = -5. Then a + a^2 = (-5) + (-5)*(-5) = (-5) + 25 = 20 But I think you were probably joking.

@julie78787 @Simi_2210_ no way (5×5)5+= 20 20=25+5 20= 30 ؟؟؟؟؟؟

@pastormarkburns Short version: “But hasn’t it ALWAYS just been The Nine Commandments?”

One of the greatest honors of my life was leading the dedication of President Donald J. Trump’s statue to the world. What amazes me is how quickly some people have compared this beautiful statue, created and made possible by more than 6,000 patriots, to a golden calf or idol worship. Let me be very clear. We worship the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone. The Word of God says, “You shall have no other gods before Me.” Exodus 20:3. It also says, “You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.” Matthew 4:10. That is the line. Honor is not worship. Respect is not idolatry. Celebration is not bowing down to a false god. Romans 13:7 says, “Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.” Giving honor where honor is due is biblical. Bowing down and worshipping an idol is sinful. There is a major difference. This statue was not created for worship. It was created as a symbol of resilience, patriotism, courage, and gratitude. It was created to honor a man whom many may disagree with, but millions of Americans believe has done extraordinary things to make this nation stronger. People celebrate athletes, musicians, entertainers, and cultural icons while they are still alive. Michael Jordan has a statue in Chicago. Cristiano Ronaldo, Taylor Swift, Shakira, Ed Sheeran, and many others have been honored publicly in different ways. Yet Christians were not screaming “golden calf” over those moments. So why now? You may dislike President Trump. That is your choice. But you are in gross error if you think for one second that I worship this magnificent statue or anything made by human hands. Acts 17:24 says, “God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.” My worship belongs to God. My gratitude can still honor people. My faith is in Christ. My respect for a leader does not replace my reverence for the Lord. Before you judge, condemn, or spread false accusations, use spiritual discernment. 1 John 4:1 says, “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God.” Some of you know the voice of the Holy Spirit. Listen to that voice before you give room to the devil through lies, slander, and false judgment. Ephesians 4:27 says, “Nor give place to the devil.” We can disagree politically and still tell the truth spiritually. This was not idol worship. This was honor. This was gratitude. This was patriotism. And above all, Jesus Christ is still Lord.

@DavidMavis11 @Pete_Monahan_JD No worries David. I was responding to the OP rather than you for calling people out as not being from CA when there’s no way he himself is a CA homeowner yet totally ignorant of Prop 19. Fatally flawed knowledge delivered with maximum condescension forced my reply.

@jigsawlogic1 @Pete_Monahan_JD Already did. I posted how I missed that already.

For all the boomers & politicians pushing to remove property taxes, here's a common example of how screwed prop 13 has made CA: my wealthy single 65yo neighbor inherited her $1 million home. She pays $1,100/y in prop tax. We pay over $12k/y as a family of 6 w/ home worth 10% less

@Pete_Monahan_JD @DavidMavis11 Prop 19. Google away.

@DavidMavis11 Youre not from California, are you? Google away, big dog. Research is your friend

@P_Kallioniemi His conscious mind retrieved the wrong entity for further cognitive processing. Even though unintentional, this statement, more so than any other, reveals his pure hatred of Ukraine; it shows that retrieval of either nation’s name is from the same location in his emotional space.

Trump: “I think Ukraine, militarily, they’re defeated. They had 159 ships. Every ship is underwater. Every one of their planes has been shot down.” Yes, he mixed up Iran and Ukraine. He really did

@TheAtlantic Competency is the greatest threat to Trump, ergo he chooses incompetents by design. Because he doesn’t put people in positions of power to seek their council, but to accept his demands. And the lower their competency, the shorter the path to this primary objective.

Kash Patel’s colleagues are alarmed by what they say is erratic behavior and excessive drinking, Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. More than two dozen people she spoke with described his management failures and conduct that could harm national security. theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

@VP Add Trump’s pardons to the mix and this Task Force is just a catch and release program for fraudsters, with a bit of bribery thrown in.

Vice President Vance on how the Task Force is putting a STOP to fraudsters: “No amount of fraud is too big or too small. If you're defrauding the taxpayer, you ought to go to prison, and anybody who's helping you ought to go to prison too.”🔥

@RepYassAnsari @OversightDems Let me guess: You’re giving her two weeks? CACO (Congress Always Chickens Out) If you were serious, you would have proceeded with contempt already.

TODAY, Pam Bondi was supposed to testify under oath about her role in the Epstein Files coverup. She refused. If she continues to ignore our bipartisan subpoena, @OversightDems will move forward with contempt proceedings.

@RepPressley It doesn’t matter if she continues to stay on the other side of a line she’s already crossed. The crossing should have been the trigger. But when you heard the starter pistol, the other runners sprinted from the blocks; yet you wait poised to see how long the echo will last.

Our subpoena requires Pam Bondi to appear before House Oversight, regardless of her title. She was a no-show today & is complicit in the White House cover up of the Epstein files. If she continues to ignore the law, we will hold her in contempt. Survivors deserve nothing less.

@atrupar Rick Scott saying government is the problem is no different than a bank robber saying the police are the problem.

Senator Rick Scott: "All government does it mess up your life. Government is always the problem."

@tamilynmsimard Just a reminder that by issuing an opinion that the Presidential Records Act is unconstitutional, the DOJ is dismantling legal consequences for Presidential theft of classified documents in anticipation that he’ll do again. Every agency he touches becomes a tool of corruption.

Espionage, he committed Espionage against our country. Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe DJT is the only American to ever committ known Espionage against the US and not go to jail for it.

@CodSandwic28337 @GeometryPuzzles If that were so, the opposite interior angles would have the same measure. But they don’t, so what looks parallel and perpendicular may not be.

@GeometryPuzzles ...that...that's just 90 degrees...you dont even have to do any math, the lines are perpendicular...

Try to solve this angle

@J_Jay_Leroshe @GeometryPuzzles Opposite angles are equal, so there is a solution.

@GeometryPuzzles The issue with everyone’s solution is that they are assuming the top line and the bottom line are parallel, but they aren’t. If they were, due to alternate interior angles, the 40° and the 60° would’ve the same angle, thus not enough information for a real solution.

@signal_semaforo @GeometryPuzzles You can’t assume the horizontal lines are parallel

@johnnymaga Garett Wade is the white Trump staffer behind the johnny maga account. But I bet all of the likes on here already know it. And instead of unhitching your wagons from a lie, you’re all here to back it instead. Not a single backbone amongst the whole lot of you vultures.

President Trump just submitted plans to paint white the Eisenhower building in Washington, D.C., a massive 19th Century structure that used to house the State Department and the Department of War. This is going to look so good.

@DuceLopez2 @AdamKinzinger Or imagine being a grown man pretending not to notice when a sundowning octagenarian sets your country ablaze. You’re like the relative scooting grandpa into the car for a quick getaway after he shoots up a gas station and you know he won’t remember it tomorrow. Loyal to a fault.

@AdamKinzinger Imagin being a grown man obsessing over another man's downfall. Hating everything he does. You sound like a scorned ex girlfriend

Gotta wonder what’s going on, Hungary is a small country yet Trump and Vance are obsessed with Orban. Hungary first foreign policy? Hungarians…. I hope the Trump endorsement is the kiss of political death it should be

@AdamKinzinger Apparently Orbans’s chances for re-election fell several percentage points after Vance’s on-site delivery of a self-referential warning about foreign influence in elections, proving that it takes more to fool Hungarians than Americans.

@epsteinsearchin Her subpoena was by name specifically to make sure she couldn’t wriggle her way out of it. If her failure to appear has any legal grounds, then a plumber who robs a bank should go free if he becomes a gardener before the cops catch him. The fires await these people at their end.

DOJ announced Pam Bondi will not attend her House Oversight deposition on Epstein files. She is defying a bipartisan subpoena. Democrats say contempt charges are on the table.

@Roshan_Rinaldi Maybe that’s why they’re shutting down the Forest Service

Every time you shake a tree in Trumpville,... another sexual predator falls out.
