The Reconciliation Memorial betrayal continues...
The "long time due to refurbishment" was a lie. Defend Arlington is calling for action.
Youngkin secretly transferred ownership to the Shenandoah Valley Battlefield Trust to stop the new Democrat administration from destroying it.
However, Trump and Hegseth don't care and MAGA folks hate the South just as much as the Democrats do. Don't believe Trump. Call your congressman.

@KirkLubimov @elonmusk Exactly. I know people who are not looking at X because the quality of content in their feed is down. Elon gets millions of view of an AI generated sexy space girl video and quality history or political analysis is not to be found.

@elonmusk The algorithm has 3 main problems;
* it's raig bait based and doesn't actually show what people may find interesting. For example it deboosts charts and data.
* it doesn't show followers your content.
* it deboosts accounts based on bot attacks and reports.

Critique of the 𝕏 algorithm is welcome.
There will be monthly updates of the latest algorithm to GitHub with release notes.
As reminder, you can always choose no algorithm via the Following tab.

This is how the algorithm can completely destroy your reach over night. This is the last: Left: 3 months Right: 2 weeks Super consistent 85-95% drop on all metrics. everything after a viral post going ballistic, I tried everything, cool down, delete low quality posts, block bot accounts. Kept posting after cool down, nothing really breaks through. Short hot takes 🛑 Long form with good signal 🛑 Viral potential post 🛑 Core audience value post 🛑 What bothers me here is that 48h after posting a mega viral post I get suppressed back to the Stone Age. This follow previous situations I’ve had with the grok powered algorithm. Where it feels like tweepCred falls far below a certain level, and you’re locked into a low reach prison with every effort to break out is making it harder and harder to do so. I’m asking for transparency on what we can do as content creators when this happens. I don’t want to spam my way out of this. I’d like to know, if I did something wrong, how I can address it, take the responsibility of algorithmic suppression for what ever the length is. But this limbo is most likely going to make me leave the platform.

It is crazy how such obviously true history is denied by so many. Blacks preferred and prefer the South for many reasons. They are not this mass of humanity who can't figure out a way to get out of the South. LOL...people on this platform say they have been to poor for 160 year to move...😂🤣
English
90% of blacks lived in the South until the mid 1950s. There were fewer than 5% outside the South in 1870. There was some migration north during the Depression, which sparked the KKK in Indiana and Ohio, to more than a million members. The majority of blacks stayed in the South because conditions weren't friendly in the North. Those who did go weren't accepted except as bellhops, musicians, etc.

They are all-in on the proposition nation but are not crazy DEI racists. I am certain many Republicans would be thrilled with them and think them conservative. Thus the reality today...a uniparty.
"FAIR agrees that diversity along many dimensions is a desirable goal in institutions of higher education.
However, discriminating against some applicants and lowering admissions standards for other applicants based solely on skin color is inconsistent with the nation’s first principles of equality and individual rights, and does a disservice to those the policy claims to uplift. Skin color is a crude proxy for perspectives and experiences."
English
They're obvious Cultural Marxists peddling "critical race theory" ideologies as "history".
Even their name "Fair For All" gives their game away. Remember how you used to recognize obvious communist countries by the fact they were named "The People's Republic of ..."?

@WanjiruNjoya I would love to get your take on fairforall.org/many-stories-o… especially if there you see a bias in their coverage of the Confederacy (hmmm I just looked and there is no Confederate flag emoji...) If you have time to take a look.

@ricksapp I’ve reconsidered—the man in the background may represent some new element that comes onto the scene during the exercise of patience. He’s in shadow and we don’t see much of him other than his face, but he’s moving into the light. The cusp of a revelation.

Today is, and should be a special day in the heart of all Americans
It is the day our history began, the day 104 brave English souls landed in Jamestown and began American history
They brave disease, insects, merciless Indian savages, and the constant threat of starvation
And they did so to bring the Protestant Church to America—to overcome pagan Indian and Catholic Spaniard alike, and of course to make their fortunes in the primordial forest and rich soil they discovered
And that they did, through constant turmoil and never-ending battles with nature and human foe alike.
Such as what our ancestors accomplished. And it began on this day, 419 years ago. They were not immigrants, they were settlers. And they who we have to think for our great nation.

@CAgovernor Come on! It's at least Jim Crow 4.0. The cancellation of the Atlanta World Series was Jim Crow 2.0.
English
The rush to silence Black voters ahead of the 2026 election is stone cold racism.
It's Jim Crow 2.0.

@Bigqadi The young man is correct. Where we fucked up is believing MLK and color blindness. Should have fought harder for the status quo in the '60s through '80s.

White people made everything about race and when we call it out they go “you make everything about race”

White people made our grandparents drink from segregated water foundations.

I shared the promotion of my guest appearance on Appalachian Liberty's podcast with my daughter.

This paragraph was in many papers in the beginning of February, 1791.
"We are informed, from respectable authority, that in the political circles in the city and province of Quebec, the honorable Alexander Hamilton, secretary of the treasury of the united sates, is held in the highest estimation, being supposed equal to the celebrated mr. Pit, and superior to the prime minister of any other court in Europe."
Friends in high places? By the end of the month, First Bank of the United States would be passed.

@henrymcmaster What is happening? Does no one know any history. Smalls was corrupt.
English
Today, we broke ground on the Robert Smalls monument. Robert Smalls helped shape our state and our country through his courage, leadership, and service. This monument will stand as a permanent tribute to a life that changed the course of history.

"If then this new constitution is calculated to consolidate the Thirteen States into One, as it evidently is, it ought not to be adopted."
Ratification of the Constitution was not a sure thing. The arguments against ratification have relevance today.

"Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbours, films, football, beer and above all, gambling, filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult."

@VolsAF I truly don't understand how someone can be so ignorant while thinking they are clever and making a valid point. Another example that shows many anons are anonymous for an obvious reason.

South Carolina is one of only four states where Confederate Memorial Day is recognized as an official state holiday, alongside Alabama, Mississippi and Texas. READ MORE: bit.ly/4uLqkjm

"Madison, though a man of distinctly constructive mind, was also an abstractionist. He seems really to have had faith in the principle of an unstable political equilibrium. At a later day, that faith was put to a rude test; and in 1814, while the Hartford Convention was in session, the scales fell from his eyes. He had all he wanted of a divided sovereignty in practical operation. Lawyers, meanwhile, have since argued on this point; philosophers and publicists have refined over it; historians have analyzed the so-called original materials of history; and men with arms in their hands have fought the thing to a final result. Never, which had so long possessed their love and allegiance, [the plan devised and recommended by the Federal Convention of 1787] was superadding a new and untried government, which it was feared would swallow up the States and everywhere extinguish local independence."
-Charles F. Adams (Historian, Union Vet, and grandson of John Q. Adams. 12/22/1902)

@Lebby_Burner Well said, but you left out the coast! I know you said every corner but you could have thrown in Biloxi, Pascagoula, or Bay St. Louis.
English
All this talk about Mississippi is ridiculous and shows the vast amount of people that have never touched the state of Mississippi with a 10ft pole that just go off of old stereotypes.
Starkville, Oxford, Tupelo, Meridian, Hattiesburg, every corner of the state full of the kindest people you will ever meet, eat the best food you can find, a community unlike any other, and an amazing culture.
Funny how people get all up in arms about this stuff when certain narcissists start spewing nonsense like usual 😂

@Harvarddoc32 The poster is funny. It would be so devastating for a school to lose a black female basketball player! They already have an inaccurate sense of their importance which harms them. Stop encouraging it.
