@AgoristN Absolutely tyrannical that republicans won't allow democrats to import as many 3rd worlders as they need. Basic tree of liberty stuff. You nailed it ma'am.

@jimiuorio Wondering why the answer to SS is always paying more and receiving less? Sorry gramps, slight chance you live for 6 years after your eligible so your going to have to work a few more years. We need all of that money for other people.

I’m not opposed to adjustments to social security. Raise the age slightly is fine but you can’t do it to anyone who is already within 15-20 years of retirement…they made plans and participated in the system they were given…

Gavin Newsom clarifies he is a “proud Zionist” who “reveres Israel.” He said he “regrets” calling Israel an “apartheid state”, only meaning to describe Netanyahu’s leadership. Follow: @AFpost

@physicsgeek He's correct though? Unless you're one of the idiots claiming he's a secret Muslim. We teach our kids to hate our country. We celebrate the worst aspects of our shared culture. And our cities aren't places of vibrancy and joy.

@HistoryBoomer Then stop bitching about the cost and salt taxes. The people not living near the museums shouldn't have to subsidize your tastes.

Some people prefer living in the city near museums, theaters, and a zillion restaurants. “But they could have 4000 ft2 in the suburbs!” Some people prefer living in the city near museums, theaters, and a zillion restaurants. “But they could have 4000 ft2 in the suburbs!” ♾️

@AGHamilton29 Yeah, they sure look like they are thriving, especially the women. What a liar. If he’s stupid enough to believe this, then he’s stupid enough. The problem is that there are so many others also stupid enough.

𝗝𝗢𝗘 𝗥𝗢𝗚𝗔𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗔 𝗕𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗝𝗘𝗪𝗦 I promise I'm not making this up. Joe Rogan — who has 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 of listeners and considers himself well-informed — was asked by Gad Saad to guess the number of Jewish people in the world. His answer: 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻. He then took the "conservative" position: 500 million. The actual answer — which Gad Saad had to deliver like a man defusing a bomb — is 𝟭𝟯 𝘁𝗼 𝟭𝟱 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻. Total. On the entire planet. Rogan's joking response: 𝘚𝘩𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘰𝘧𝘧. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘶𝘺'𝘴 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘻𝘺. He was off by a factor of 70. Here's what makes this more than just funny. The Jewish people represent 0.2% of the world's population. 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁. For every single Jewish person on earth there are 100 Muslims. And yet Jews account for somewhere between 25 and 30 percent of all Nobel Prize winners in history. The most persecuted people in human history. The smallest major religious minority on the planet. And somehow the source of more Nobel laureates, more scientific breakthroughs, more literary giants and more cultural contributions per capita than any group that has ever existed. 𝟭𝟰,𝟮𝟬𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲. That's it. There are more people in metropolitan Tokyo. And this morning in London, someone burned their ambulances. Context matters. Numbers matter. And sometimes the most important thing you can do is just look them up.

@rosethaaartist Correct. You're already voting democrat no matter what. There arrnt enough of you to win. They must protect their new voting block. Its so much bigger than the black vote. I expect the focus of that party to be primarily on their new hispanic block.

If ICE main target was Black people nobody heart would be broken about us. I’m just saying. All this outrage over illegal immigrants being deported? If it was Black people, nobody would care. Nobody would march. Nobody would cry. They’d justify it. Find a reason why we deserved it. That’s how it always goes.

@thecavedaddy Its the major problem when you inflate the cost of unskilled labor. Recently retired early, but my occupation was state licensed and necessary to run a business in the field. Wages for that job are the same today as they were q0 years ago.

What is the point of insurance, even? My glasses broke last week- it’s been almost two years since I had an eye exam, so I scheduled an appointment for this afternoon. I went through the whole process, only to find at the end that the exam itself was $45, and the ugly glasses, with no glare reduction, coatings of any type at all, single vision, etc…. Are $321. I literally just paid the exam copay, and left. So I just paid for a service I can’t even utilize, when I am having trouble putting groceries on the table. Note: I am coke bottle glasses near-sided. I cannot drive, cook, etc, without my glasses. Like- why isn’t this covered by my insurance? This is worse than the fact that dental care isn’t covered. This is what I mean when I say I am tired of living this way. What is the point of this?

@shebringsjoy The standard cost of optical hardware used to be pretty simple. Most places it was 2 1/2 times cost for frames an 3x for lenses. Optical insurance destroyed that model. Standard SV lens costs provider roughly 2-3$ a PAIR. Pure robbery. Source: Me. Optician 25 years.

@dogwoodblooms Ma'am, if they had an accent you recognized as NY they were probably from the city. They aren't "the north". Most of the rural NYers find them a bit much as well. Although we can get along well enough. Sweetest people youll ever meet live someplace else in that state.

I can’t agree to that. I’ve stood behind a New Yorker in line at the grocery store who was on the phone complaining about how slow Southerners are. From our driving to our speaking to the way we move. And that’s the tiniest instance I can think of. I’ve witnessed MUCH worse. The terrible part about it? She didn’t even think she was being rude.

Reality: Southern hospitality is very real—but it comes with an honor code. You don’t respect that honor code, and you get treated accordingly. Southerners are the epitome of FAFO. So if you decide to bring yourself down South, don’t FA. It’s really that simple. 💁🏼‍♀️

Hot take: Southern hospitality is a myth. You guys are very sarcastic and oddly unkind in situations where it’s not really warranted.

@MsMelChen So.... american politicians having been selling America off piece by piece for decades and Carlson is the bad guy because he recognizes that its reached the point we are almost completely dependent on them? Not the vulture capitalist. Not the ceos. Nit the pols. Tucker...

If you haven't been NOTICING this about Tucker Carlson, then you should by now. This is a mask slip moment. What he's touting here is multipolarity, which is nothing more than a politically correct way to say American decline. The Chinese Communist Party has been chanting the exact same tune for years - a “peaceful rise,” a “multipolar world order,” and “shared power” with America. They couch it in such docile language knowing full well what it means - the slow erosion of American primacy while they build up their military capacity, steal tech, and dominate global supply chains. Furthermore, Pax Sinica (a Chinese-led world order) and Pax America are fundamentally incompatible and mutually exclusive. They are antithetical systems. One cannot expand without shrinking the other. Beijing explicitly views the current US-led order as “an unfair constraint to its rise” and wants to replace its norms with its own. Indeed it has violated many of these terms that defined the Post WWII order and the US, until Trump came along, did nothing in response to these violations. These include trade violations, territorial claims in the South China Sea, sketchy dual-use operations and tech, etc. Multipolarity or “sharing power” is not a peaceful compromise - it’s the transition phase between one Pax and the next. The CCP has never hidden that it wants a China-led order. The United States (until recently) never hid that it intends to preserve the one it built. These two peaces cannot coexist any more than Pax Britannica and Pax Germania could have co-ruled Europe in 1914. That’s why “multipolarity” is just Western declinism with better branding. America First isn’t about imperialism. It’s about refusing to live under rules and norms written in Beijing. Tucker has shown he's not America First.

Jack, spare me the Bronze Star porn and the reflexive genuflection to Kent’s Green Beret pedigree. Eleven deployments, six Bronze Stars with five Oak Leaf Clusters...impressive on paper, lethal in the sandbox against every jihadi rat-line from Fallujah to the Hindu Kush. But here’s the cold, unforgiving truth: service records don’t immunize treason. They amplify the betrayal when a man who once wore the SF tab decides to leak classified counterterrorism streams out of the NCTC, sprint straight to Tucker Carlson’s set like a jilted operator with an axe to grind, and publicly undermine the President he swore to support and defend. Textbook operator fracture: the personal wound...wife murdered by ISIS in 2019...festers into ideological sepsis. Grief transmutes into a vendetta against “neocons,” institutional loyalty, and any administration actually prosecuting the mission. Cognitive dissonance in high-speed door-kickers is a hell of a drug; it lets a former Regiment man convince himself that perfidy is principle, that burning sources and TTPs is somehow noble dissent. I call that rationalization what it is: operational suicide. Leaks don’t “expose”...they gift our enemies the exact map to our fused domestic-foreign threat streams, compromise assets cultivated over decades, and turn the NCTC nerve center into a sieve at the precise moment Iran proxies and Salafist networks are probing for weakness. Military honor isn’t a fucking participation trophy you cash in when the politics shift or your feelings get bruised. The oath isn’t conditional on your personal narrative or your wife’s tragedy. Kent chose the leak over the mission. He chose to weaponize his clearance against the chain of command he once saluted. That’s not whistleblowing; that’s Benedict Arnold with a beret and a podcast booking. Posobiec, by waving Kent’s valor like a get-out-of-treason-free card, you’re not defending veterans...you’re desecrating the very code that forged them. This isn’t gray area. It’s black-and-white betrayal. Kent’s rack means jack shit when the man behind it decides the Republic he bled for is now the enemy. History won’t remember the medals. It’ll remember the knife in the back. Fuck the excuses. 💀🗡️⚖️
