Things you could never get away with now that were commonplace and normal for Gen X. 🤣🤣

It’s time to stop defunding the police. As Governor, I pledge to fully fund and support the men and women in blue who serve our communities every day.

Republican congressman asks police chief if he would enforce gun confiscation. What happened next is unbelievable.

There is a strain on both the left and the populist right insisting that Trump didn't choose this war — that Israel pulled his strings, that he got played, that the tail wagged the dog. Trump has rejected it. His entire national security team has rejected it. Greg Gutfeld just explained why the claim is historically illiterate. You have forty years of Donald Trump talking about Iran. Forty years. He was saying in the 1980s what needed to happen. This is not a man who woke up one morning and got talked into something by Benjamin Netanyahu. This is a man who has been on record about Iran longer than most of the people criticizing him have been paying attention to foreign policy. And he telegraphed the strike on Kharg Island specifically — Iran's primary oil export terminal, the economic jugular of the regime. That wasn't a surprise. That wasn't Israel whispering in his ear. That was Trump doing exactly what Trump said he would do. The "Israel made him do it" narrative serves a specific purpose: it lets people oppose the war while avoiding the harder argument, which is whether the war itself was right or wrong. If Trump was manipulated, you don't have to engage with his actual reasoning. You just have to discredit the decision by questioning his agency. But history doesn't cooperate. The paper trail is too long. The record is too clear. 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻'𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗛𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘆-𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻.
