Why is the automotive industry is strangling the ability for us to repair our own vehicles? (See attached video). Also, if your vehicle uses LED lights, there’s no changing just the bulb. You have to replace the entire headlight/tail light unit as they are designed as one non-sealable, non-serviceable unit. An $8-$20 light bulb replacement now will cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. This is corruption, theft, waste and not to mention it goes straight to the landfills. instagram.com/reel/DX8OxruBo…

U.S. Forest Service law enforcement is now asking for the public’s help identifying a group of Indian nationals seen defacing Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona, a sacred Native American site, with furious Americans demanding their immediate deportation.

@That1Eyelash @Neuroactive51 @giveashitnature @DanByers12 Love the open mouth! So cute.

@Neuroactive51 @giveashitnature @DanByers12 Those beautiful blue eggs. Best of luck to all the hatchlings.

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.

I have to replace a water pump in my 2017 ford explorer. Because it’s so deep in the engine block, they said they might as well take care of the timing chain. I have 105K on my suv. It’s a 4K job. They are switching away from being able to replace individual bulbs $8-$20 to needing to change out the entire headlight assembly hundreds to thousands of dollars. Break pads are now tied to computers, so even that is going by the wayside.

@socdoc100 @catturd2 Not only that, but look at the recalls they have on most vehicles now. Trannies and engines have to be replaced. God forbid the cost of replacing them if the warranty is gone. Like ram 1500 gas tanks needing replaced with only 61k miles on the truck now.

Thank God.

@catturd2 I wish they would look at what they are doing in the automotive industry to jack up prices. The way they are building vehicles makes it more expensive to repair and almost eliminates anyone doing simple repairs at home.

THERE IT IS 🚨 Mainstream media finally reporting our skies are being sprayed to cloud seed and change the weather New cloud seeding drones are also being introduced into America We need a nationwide ban over populated areas before this expands “Well, much of the country is plagued by drought, and while cloud seeding with silver iodide powder like this is nothing new, it's been around for decades Doing it by drone, that could be a huge game changer. Leading the charge on this front is Rainmaker, a startup company here in Southern California that's already adding a bit to overall precipitation levels in California, Oregon, Idaho, and Utah. CEO Augustus Derico, especially proud of ongoing efforts to save the Great Salt Lake, which is currently just half of what it was back in the 1980s. Working with state governments in Utah and Idaho, Rainmaker has had its drones seeding clouds to enhance snowpack and runoff into Salt Lake — Drought is hardly limited to the West. In fact, much of the Southeast is currently plagued with conditions categorized as extreme or exceptional — But cloud seeding is controversial and actually banned in Florida, Tennessee, and Louisiana. Rainmaker argues there's been human intervention throughout history in handling water resources. Now, cloud seeding with drones also offers new hope with firefighting, and more moisture in the ground overall would also help with fire prevention” It’s actually been around much longer has been practiced for over 80 years and is actively used in multiple states.
 Cloud seeding began with experiments in the 1940s. As of 2024–2025, at least nine states have active programs: California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming Silver Iodide Dry Ice (Solid Carbon Dioxide) Sodium Chloride (Table Salt) Calcium Chloride Potassium Iodide Liquid Propane And a few more chemicals are used in cloud seeding We don’t want to be breathing this stuff in. Ban it over populated areas. Don’t forget the chemicals come down as rain and get absorbed by our crops

@JerryCosper1 He would be fantastic!

@socdoc100 He needs to be the national RNC Chairman.

This man has done more for our cause than all of the RNC!

🚨 NOW: Rep. Tim Burchett just angrily STORMED OUT of a committee meeting saying a backroom deal was cut to let Democrats control what they do! "We're going to BLOW IT because we're not acting like we're in the majority! [We] allow the Democrats to tell us what to do. It's just UNBELIEVABLE!" "At some point we're going to have to give some guts. This town is crooked as a dog's leg and I'm disgusted." "Had some amendments that were cutting regulation things that we should, as Republicans, do. Because of backroom deals they cut, they won't allow any amendments on the bill because the Democrats didn't agree to it! So here we are in the majority and we're not allowed to do that!" "And I guarantee you when the Democrats are in the majority, which they very much could be because of this kind of garbage — [they won't do this]." "I want to FIGHT." 🔥

@amyforsandiego @sdschools @0hour1 @catturd2 @libsoftiktok Wow!😳

Last year I interviewed the mother of San Diego Islamic Center attacker Cain Clark after she contacted me through Instagram. She said her son was mandated to take an Ethnic Studies class to graduate from @sdschools According to the mother, the first two weeks focused on “whiteness” and “white privilege.” She said Cain, who is mixed race with Indonesian heritage on his father’s side, felt uncomfortable in the class and believed it was teaching him to view himself and his white family members negatively. I interviewed Cain through his mother. She said they asked if he could be excused from the class, but the school insisted he had to complete an Ethnic Studies course in order to graduate

@TheGussReport @spencerpratt @lapdVanNuysDiv @LAPDVTD @ShermanOakPatch @0hour1 @jimmy_rustlin there should be consequences… calling Dindu Crew!

@spencerpratt @lapdVanNuysDiv @LAPDVTD @ShermanOakPatch x.com/TheGussReport/…

If anyone sees this person stealing @spencerpratt signs in #ShermanOaks, please get her license plate number and send it to me along with photos, video et al. She was seen doing this on or near Longridge. @lapdVanNuysDiv @LAPDVTD @ShermanOakPatch

We have a local school resource officer who has said it’s near impossible for parents to know what their kids are doing online. He has said, “they can disguise apps as calculators.” They learn early how to go incognito. This doesn’t mean don’t try, but know that most parents don’t have the expertise to be experts. With that said, few important thing parents can do: 1. Show up. Talk to your kids. 2. Actually be there, involved, in your kids lives. 3. Know who their friends are, who their parents are, and what is everyone involved with/interested in? 4. Everyone sits down together at the table for dinner. If involved in sports/other activities, may not be every day, but most nights of the week. 5. It’s not your job for your kids to like you. You are not their friend. Your job is to help mold them into productive members of society who will one day leave your house. 6. Saying no is acceptable. 7. If your kid is upset/mad at you at least once a day, it means you are doing your job. See #5 & #6. 8. Your kids have to be involved in something: sports, music, art, theatre, dance, church, etc. Kids who are busy tend to have less free time to get into trouble. 9. Keep electronics out of their rooms. 10. Don’t ignore red flags: sudden changes in baseline routines/behavior: secretive phone/gaming habits, dropping grades, withdrawal from family, unexplained physical injuries, wearing clothes not appropriate for the season, changes in sleeping/eating patterns. Lots more, but these basics go a long way.

A top education expert just testified before Congress: This is the first generation in human history that is getting DUMBER after being educated. 📉 Every generation before us got smarter. This one is declining fast! Our schools aren’t failing by accident. They’re producing exactly what they were designed to produce — a weaker, stupider population. This should terrify every parent in America. #DumbingDownAmerica

@brian_lenney Exactly. There were several in the sky as we were traveling from OR towards Boise.

WTF is this?

@c8cbf074f0a54d1 @Politicalmom66 @oldstatemark I think he moved in 2018, but campaigned for 3 months.

@Politicalmom66 @oldstatemark Sorry..didn't mean to piss off a middle schooler.. Figured they'd be more interested in a " who has cooties at school" topic

IMPORTANT: Please keep in mind that if you ever see me in a photo with people, it means that I agree with every single thing they have said and done and tweeted, even if they have changed their mind. I agree with what they first said and I agree with their mind change. I accept full responsibility for it and you should definitely call me out as a ___________ (choose your slur) because I am near them in a photo. Thanks, Mark

@DiCali007 @boneheadtruckrs @libsoftiktok

@boneheadtruckrs I alerted the authorities in SEPT 2025 About this stretch of hwy 99...99% of drivers were in turbans driving like maniacs. It's rampant in CA but this stretch was like driving on a Cairo fwy. Free for all in their minds.

Here is the company information. AMRITSAR TRANS INC 1559 UNITED STEET MANTECA, CA   95337 I will have a video on this company and its background tomorrow morning.

Parents: Recent tragic events show how online ‘edgy’ meme accounts & aesthetic videos can sometimes lead kids into darker rabbit holes. One shooter’s manifesto referenced admiration for certain historical terrorists & reposted content from accounts like this. Talk to your teens about what they watch online. Monitor accounts pushing ironic ‘no context’ history/military memes. Stay vigilant — protect your kids from radicalization. Resources: @FBI tips or parent guides on online extremism. What signs have you seen? 👇

Lessons from the Recent San Diego Tragedy 🧵 The X account @SurfaceLevel141 (linked to Cain Lee Clark) was active from ~Jan 2026 until suspended at the end of April. It frequently used the animated character Mymy from the Dutch series Ongezellig. Mymy, known in the show for strong Dutch nationalist views, has been co-opted in online communities for anti-immigration and cultural identity themes. X suspended it under hateful conduct rules. This highlights how memes get repurposed and how platforms enforce policies. For awareness on content trends and enforcement. No glorification intended.

🚨 JUST IN: The House has OVERWHELMINGLY passed a Trump-backed bill to RESTRICT companies like Blackrock from buying up single family homes LONG overdue! 🔥 It’ll now head to the Senate, then to POTUS’ desk 🇺🇸

Gary - the reason why you had the option for the 3 is that Democrat and Independent are always open - meaning anyone can vote for a D or I. R do have closed primaries, so an I or D wouldn’t have access to a R ballot. A D or I could change party affiliation a few months prior to the election.

@oldstatemark When I go to vote yesterday and the poll worker asked me "what ballot would I like" with three choices, as me being a registered Republican, that's a rigged election.

So, Republicans allegedly nominated an “ILLEGALS FIRST” governor? Idaho Last. Wild times.

@hdidxx190 @scho_gary @oldstatemark You can register to vote on the day of the election and choose your party. Also, you can switch parties a few months before the primary election in ID. Estimates are between 10K-22K D switched over to R in 2022. Not sure how many D switched over to vote in this election.

@scho_gary @oldstatemark Republican is a closed primary. Only registered republicans can vote in it. All other parties are open and allow anyone to vote in them. Therefor as a registered republican you get to choose which ballot you would like. How is that simple law hard to understand, Gary?
