Men without degrees built this.

I have never seen Border Czar Tom Homan cry before. I was not expecting this response. Stop scrolling and watch this… Tom Homan just gave a raw, emotional answer on what drives his passion for securing the border and finding missing children: “I’ve talked to young girls as young as nine years old that were raped multiple times by members of the cartel to pay for passage to come into the United States. When you get on your knees and you talk to a nine-year-old little girl, and you look in her eyes and everything in her is dead, her life is ruined forever. Your heart breaks.” Homan began crying real tears talking about his own children. “I’ve stood on the back of a tractor trailer when 19 dead aliens that died baked to death, including a five-year-old little boy that baked to death and begged his father not to let him die… And when I went to that crime scene, I had a five-year-old son at the time. That little boy was wearing the same underwear my little boy had. That messed me up for a while.” This is why Tom Homan accepted the job as Border Czar. The left calls him evil — but he has a heart of gold. The reason he’s so tough on border security is because he’s seen firsthand the horror an open border creates — and how securing it saves thousands of innocent lives.

Why are you betraying me and my family, @LeaderJohnThune, by making sure the Save America Act goes nowhere?

We need to start a #RemoveThune campaign. If @LeaderJohnThune was going to get the SAVE America Act passed, it would be done by now. Nearly 85 percent of the American people want this legislation passed asap. @ImFiredUp2 Thanks for being so clear on this issue. @SenRickScott x.com/ImFiredUp2/sta…

Yesterday I laid it bare for you all... John Thune, the smirking Senate ringmaster of the uniparty circus, wasn’t going to let the Save America Act see daylight before the midterms. Not because he lacks the votes. Not because the American people haven’t roared their mandate. But because the establishment’s pathology runs deeper than any “procedural delay.” Rep. Andy Ogles just confirmed it in real time, voice cracking with the rage of a man watching the Republic get slow-walked into the grave. “He’s running out the clock,” Ogles seethed. “It’ll be too late to implement for the midterms…I can’t even begin to ponder why that’s a good strategy. It’s stupid.” Stupid? No. Calculated. Malignant. This is Thune’s signature move...the velvet dagger of the institutional class. They don’t oppose Trump’s agenda because it’s “extreme.” They oppose it because codifying it would sever the veins that feed their permanent DC ruling caste. Every safeguard against election fraud, every barrier to the bureaucratic deep state, every mechanism to restore sovereignty to the people becomes a mortal threat to the oligarchs who have spent decades turning the Senate into their personal veto chamber. They don’t want Trump’s agenda enshrined in law because that would make the will of the voters harder to nullify next time. And they sure as hell don’t want MAGA to prove, once and for all, that the Republic still belongs to its citizens instead of to the consultant class, the lobbyists, and the donor overlords who own both wings of the uniparty. This isn’t politics. This is psychological warfare dressed in Robert’s Rules of Order. Thune and his ilk suffer from the classic oligarchic neurosis: a terror of genuine popular sovereignty that borders on the pathological. History is littered with these men...late-Roman senators who filibustered land reforms while the plebs starved, Weimar conservatives who dithered while the center collapsed, believing their genteel delays would preserve their sinecures. They always bet the Republic can absorb one more betrayal. They always lose the Republic in the process. The philosophy here is as old as Thucydides: when elites fear the demos more than they fear tyranny, they will sacrifice the constitutional order itself to keep the game rigged. That is precisely what we’re witnessing. They are proving, with chilling precision, that they would rather burn the last vestiges of electoral integrity than let Trump and MAGA institutionalize the populist revolt of 2024. They don’t want Trump gone because of "mean tweets." They want him...and every last one of us...gone because we represent the final rupture in their 80-year grift. The Save America Act isn’t just legislation; it’s the codification of the people’s verdict. Delay it past the point of enforcement and you don’t just neuter one bill...you neuter the mandate. You tell every future populist movement: “Your votes don’t matter. The clock is ours.” That is not conservatism. That is the soft totalitarianism of the administrative state wearing a three-piece suit and calling itself “bipartisan statesmanship.” Fuck that. And fuck the pretense that this is anything other than deliberate sabotage of the Republic they swore to defend. The establishment GOP isn’t incompetent. It’s complicit. They have chosen the long game of managed decline over the short-term pain of actually governing like the Article I branch the Founders intended. We see you, Senator Thune. We see the pathology. We see the venom behind the smile. The American people gave you the Senate, the House, and the White House for a reason. Pass the goddamn Save America Act. 💀⚔️⚖️

The American political arena isn’t a game of chess between equals. It’s a rigged slaughterhouse where one side gets to swing the cleaver and the other is expected to thank them for the privilege of bleeding. Cheating is fine...if you’re a Democrat. Authoritarianism is fine...if you’re a Democrat. Lawfare...the deliberate weaponization of courts, agencies, and statutes as political scalpels...is not merely fine, it’s the highest form of strategy if you’re a Democrat. This isn’t “both sides” hypocrisy. This is asymmetric pathology. The modern Democratic machine operates from a core psychological defect: narcissistic moral entitlement fused with authoritarian control needs. They have convinced themselves that their vision of the future is so morally pristine that any violation of norms, laws, or democratic guardrails is not corruption...it’s prophylaxis. Rig the election? Necessary. Censor dissent? Public health. Prosecute political opponents while shielding your own? Rule of law. The ends don’t just justify the means; the means dissolve the moment they inconvenience the anointed. Facts are stubborn: documented ballot harvesting operations in key urban centers, Big Tech suppression coordinated with federal agencies, selective enforcement of campaign finance laws that magically never touch the right people, and lawfare campaigns timed to kneecap candidates...these are not conspiracy theories. They are observable, repeatable patterns of power maintenance by a party that views the Constitution as an obstacle rather than a covenant. And the Republicans? They are not the opposition. They are the designated losers. Spineless, gutless, invertebrate custodians of performative principle. They lack the will, the killer instinct, the raw, primal “I don’t give a fuck, I will burn it down before I let you win” ferocity required to meet fire with napalm. While Democrats treat politics as existential war, Republicans treat it as a gentleman’s debate club where losing with dignity is somehow noble. Result? Democrats can do literally anything...steal, lie, persecute, censor, mandate, rig...because they understand the one immutable law of power: if you seize it and never let go, the rules become whatever you say they are. Republicans are not allowed to play the same game. They’re not even allowed to acknowledge the game is rigged. One stray tweet, one unscripted rally, one hint of actual resistance, and the entire regime apparatus...media, DOJ, NGOs, tech...descends like locusts while their own “leadership” clutches pearls and whispers about “norms.” This is not sustainable. A republic cannot survive when one party operates as an authoritarian cartel and the other as its willing doormat. The pathology is terminal unless the weak are replaced by the ruthless. Nature doesn’t reward the spineless. It devours them. And right now, the Republican Party is begging to be devoured. 💀⚔️

It's not "both sides" it's one side that treats the Constitution like a suggestion and the other that treats it like a suicide pact. Dems rig the game, then lecture us about "democracy" while the GOP leadership clutches pearls and schedules another hearing that goes nowhere. Time to primary the doormats and back the fighters who get it. Nature doesn't do participation trophies.

I probably need to sign off for the day. I am disgusted beyond belief at the people who suddenly are acting pious for political reasons when they have forever vocally supported: 1. Murdering unborn children by the bushel. 2. Nuns being persecuted for adhering to the doctrines of the Catholic Church. 3. The mutilation of confused children to satisfy their parents’ Munchausen Syndrome. 4. The beatification of Barack Obama, Anthony Fauci and Robert Mueller as holy figures throughout the media. 5. Harsh criticism of any Trump Administration official who favorably mentions God or Jesus. 6. The ending of religious assembly during COVID. 7. A generalized disdain for orthodox Christian and Catholic persons and beliefs. 8. Hatred for the most orthodox, intellectual and Catholic of recent Popes, Pope Benedict. 9. Embrace of all manner of perversions enumerated specifically in the Bible as sins. 10. Silence on the murder of 30,000+ Persians by the Iranian mullahs and the violent murder and persecution of Christians in large swathes of the Muslim world. Pope Leo is using the Gospel as an excuse to meddle in purely political affairs, and politicians throughout America who hate the Gospel are using feigned faith as a political cudgel. It is disgusting beyond belief. OUT.

J'avais l'habitude de croire que Donald Trump était simplement un président exceptionnel. Mais ensuite, j'ai regardé en temps réel les Mainstream Media (médias grand public), le FBI, les agences de renseignement, la CIA, Big Tech et l'ensemble de l'establishment de Washington unir leurs forces dans une campagne sans précédent pour détruire un seul homme. Les nombreuses poursuites, les deux destitutions, les canulars sans fin dont de la Russie, le raid de Mar-a-Lago, les ordres de bâillon, les efforts pour le retirer du bulletin de vote, les tentatives de le mettre en faillite et de le jeter en prison… tout cela visait à l'empêcher de revenir au pouvoir. Ont suivi deux tentatives sur sa vie. Avec 92% de la couverture mediatique étant negative pour lui tandis que 78% de celle pour Kamala etait positive, il a parvenu à obtenir une victoire convaincante dans la dernière election. Comment expliquer cela? C'est à ce moment-là que c'est devenu indéniable pour moi : personne n'obtient ce niveau d'opposition coordonnée et hystérique à moins qu'il ne représente une véritable menace existentielle pour le système... Le système que nous connaissons tous est corrompu et brisé. Les politiciens ordinaires ne déclenchent pas ce genre de panique coordonnée. À ce moment-là, j'ai cessé de penser à lui comme à un grand président. Il est le plus grand de tous les temps.

From Martin Iles, reposted: Having lived in the USA for nearly two years, I've realised something. The USA and the remainder of the Western world are no longer aligned. We all laugh and mock when the Americans say, "Freedom!" because we truly think we're as free as they are. Wrong. We're not. Not even close. The laws, the mindset, and the behaviour, is totally different in this regard. Most of all, the governments are totally different. The USA's convictions around core freedoms are on a scale we do not share. Meanwhile, Donald Trump wins the popular vote, the electoral college, the House, and the Senate... a man who, in every other Western country, is held in open derision, if not contempt. For these and other reasons, we are not the same. Yet the West, including Australia, fully expect to rely on the USA for our very survival. If the world turns bad (which will happen - only a question of time), then the whole West, without America, is toast. So, you may ask - if we're not very aligned ideologically, then it must be that we bring something to the party militarily? Well, no... actually... we don't matter that much militarily. The USA has about 470 ships in its navy, including 11 aircraft carriers, 69 submarines, 75 destroyers... plus 110 new ships in the pipeline. Australia has about 30, including 3 destroyers, 7 frigates and 7 outdated submarines. The UK does a little better, with about 60. Meanwhile, the US has over 14,000 military aircraft. A staggering number. Australia has 252 military aircraft. The UK has 556. The US army has just shy of 1,000,000 uniformed personnel in its military. Australia has about 45,000. The USA spends 3.4% ($968 billion) of its GDP on defence. Australia spends 2% ($36.4 billion). The US spends as much as the next 15 largest military-spending countries (including China) combined. The USA has a fighting culture. The men shoot things (a lot) and hunt things, the veterans get favoured in everything from parking spots to boarding planes. A uniformed young man is thanked in the street a dozen times a day. "Oh, the Americans and their guns!" we say, in our smug way. Yes, they have a warrior culture. We do not. We don't have to, because we're a leech on theirs. How many young British men are willing to fight for their country? Now ask the same regarding young American men. The difference is about as wide as it could be. Militarily, we don't offer squat. Meanwhile, look at the way Australia works against America's interests by loving on China. China made us rich and we stay close. This is a Marxist regime with expansionist aims. Again, you have to spend time in the USA to realise just how vast a gulf there is between us on China. Europe, too. They let China have their way everywhere from Germany to Greenland, all the while importing Islam and sending their own people to court for saying hurty words. Somehow, we have landed the deal of a lifetime with the USA that says, "when the baddies come, you'll save us ok?" Because we can't save ourselves. And we live in peace. But we keep gnawing away at freedoms, keep enabling China, and get flabby and disinterested about our military because Uncle Sam's got it. And, let's be honest, Americans are widely looked down on. To add insult to injury, we don't think that highly of our protectors. So, the USA is finally saying "enough." I am here, I can tell you what the vibe is, and that's it. Trump is doing what people want in this regard. They're over it. And we come across all shocked and hard done by. We behave like people with no self-insight at all. Yes, the global alliance system is all over the place now. From America's perspective, it's about time. And I must say, though I be a proud Australian, I am forced to agree. Something has to change.

He is Risen.

🚨 IT WAS NEVER ABOUT THE MONEY Some people are questioning why America would go to such extreme lengths — and spend whatever it takes — to rescue one downed airman. But this was never about dollars. It was about sending a crystal-clear message to Iran and the entire world: The United States does not leave its warriors behind. Through that daring rescue operation, Trump showed both enemies and allies exactly what U.S. Special Forces are capable of. FAFO. These are the kind of soldiers you pray you never have to fight against.🇺🇸

x.com/JimFergusonUK/… 🚨 INTO THE FIRE — AND BACK OUT AGAIN A downed U.S. airman. Hostile territory. Time running out. Special forces moved in to bring him home. Then the mission turned. A landing aircraft became immobilised — exposed on the ground. Operators forced to hold positions under fire. No easy exit. No margin for error. Reinforcements pushed in. Multiple aircraft committing to a live combat zone to complete the extraction. At the same time… A U.S. C-130 became stranded at a remote base. Unrecoverable. Destroyed on the ground to prevent capture. Two aircraft lost. One objective. Mission completed. Because when it matters most… They go in — no matter the cost.

🚨 BREAKING: Retired Marine Joey Jones says the US airman downed in Iran fully trusts rescue teams will get them out. “I was bleeding from four limbs with a punctured lung and never doubted they’d come for me. Army pilots would land on a bomb to save us!”

Lionel Shriver is a lifelong registered Democrat. She voted for Hillary. She voted for Biden. On Triggernometry, she called Biden’s border policy deliberate. They “welded the gates open.” The calculation was demographic. Import enough people, shift the electorate, hold the majority for a generation. Not empathy. Not chaos. Engineering. Shriver calls it “suicidal vanity” — Western nations so captured by their own virtue they couldn’t see what they were doing to themselves. Not until the cities were overwhelmed and the bills came due. New York put migrants in hotels and ran out of money. The question was never whether it was working. It was whether anyone would say so.

NATO is in far bigger danger than anyone realizes. And the reason has nothing to do with defense budgets. The real danger is psychological. It’s cultural. Europeans didn’t just free-ride on American security for 80 years. They built an entire identity around the idea that they evolved past the Americans protecting them. That identity is now the single biggest obstacle to Western survival. And the darkest irony is: we helped build it. After World War II, Europe wasn’t just economically shattered. Its culture was in ruins. The cities, the universities, the concert halls, the museums. Rubble. The Marshall Plan rebuilt the economy. But culture wasn’t a priority. Not at first. Then the Iron Curtain dropped. And suddenly culture became a weapon. American diplomats, academics, artists & scholars flooded Western Europe. We funded their universities. Supported their orchestras. Rebuilt their museums. Promoted their intellectual life. Not because European culture needed saving for its own sake. Because Eastern Europeans were struggling for Maslow’s mist basic needs. We needed the view from the other side of that Wall to be intoxicating. So America built Western Europe into a showcase of self-actualization. Art. Philosophy. Cafe culture. Long vacations. Universities where people studied literature instead of surviving. We were manufacturing jealousy. And it worked. The Wall came down. But here’s what no one accounted for. When you give a society self-actualization on someone else’s tab long enough, they forget it was a gift. They start believing it was organically theirs. And when they look at the country that funded it all, a country busy building aircraft carriers and semiconductor fabs and shale fields instead of reaching the Maslow’s pinnacle. An overweight American in a ball cap who can’t tell Monet from Pissarro. Who eats fast food. Who drives a truck. Who builds strip malls instead of piazzas. And to a culture trained in aesthetics but stripped of strategic awareness, that American looks uncivilized. So the arrogance takes root. And once a culture decides another is beneath them, they stop listening. Americans say wars are sometimes necessary: crude. Oil is the backbone of prosperity: unsophisticated. Kids build companies in garages that reshape the planet: crass. Wall Street finances the global economy: vulgar. Europe has no world-class technology sector. No military capable of strong defense. No energy independence. No AI capacity. What Europe has is culture. The culture we paid for at the expense of us reaching Maslow’s pinnacle. For decades that was fine. We funded the museums, protected the sea lanes, and tolerated the sneering because the arrangement worked. Then Europeans stopped keeping the contempt private. They started saying it to our faces. In their media. In their parliaments. At every international forum. “Americans are stupid. Americans are violent. Americans are a threat to democracy.” We could have moved the Louvre to NY. We could have built a Venice here. We could have stolen your best artists, designers, philosophers and more… like your conquering armies did for centuries. Instead we funded them. And all we asked for in return was to let us visit. You don’t have the military to defend your borders. You don’t have the technology to compete. You don’t have the energy to heat your homes without begging dictators. What you have is an 80-year superiority complex FUNDED BY AMERICANS, protected by American soldiers, and built on the false belief that self-actualization is civilization. It isn’t. Civilization is the ability to sustain itself. By that measure, Europe isn’t a civilization at all. It’s a dependency with better wine. That’s not a threat. It’s a weather report. Build a Navy. Or don’t. But stop lecturing the people who made you “better than us” Our “crudeness” our “stunted liberal education” our “ugly strip malls” are because we sacrificed our culture to support yours.

We live in a world that hates Christ and those who believe in Him, but that's to be expected. Just as He was persecuted, so will we be. Consider me a Jaden Ivey fan.

If you didn’t get vaxxed, you are part of the ultimate resistance.

Whatever a man does to curb his desires is considered fasting. Whatever a man does out of love for his neighbor is considered alms-deeds. Whatever a man does for the worship of God is considered prayer.

𝗧𝗢 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘𝗟𝗢𝗡𝗚 𝗗𝗘𝗠𝗢𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 "𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗗 𝗧𝗢 𝗠𝗬 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗬": 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗗. The Iran war has done something no political consultant could have engineered. It has stripped the Democratic Party down to its bare operating principle — in front of everyone — in real time. For years the hypocrisy was easier to hide. They could talk about human rights in the abstract. Democracy in theory. Women's rights as a campaign slogan. But the moment the United States moved to destroy a regime that has been murdering its own people since 1979 — a regime that k!lls women for removing their hijabs, that hangs teenage wrestlers in public squares, that has financed every major terror network on earth for 47 years — the Democratic Party had a choice. Side with the Iranian people fighting for secular democratic freedom. Or side against Trump. They chose against Trump. Which this time meant siding with the IRGC. And people finally saw it. Here's the ideology that produced that outcome. The Democratic Party's entire worldview runs on a single binary: oppressor versus oppressed. America is the oppressor. Therefore anyone fighting America is the oppressed — even when they are the ones doing the murdering and oppressing. The IRGC hangs protesters in the streets and the left categorizes them as victims because they are anti-American. That is not a political position. That is a moral illness. The Iranian people are in the streets. They are getting shot. They have been sacrificing their lives for secular democratic freedom — the exact values the American left claims to champion. The left's response before the U.S. attacked: silence. The moment the U.S. attacked to help end the regime oppressing them: outrage. That sequence tells you everything about what the party has become. When your entire ideology collapses into opposition to one person, you no longer have an ideology. You have nothing. And the war with Iran proved it in real time — not because anyone set a trap, but because the moment demanded a real answer and the party gave the only answer it has left. Whatever Trump does is bad. Even when what Trump did was strike the regime that has been murdering Americans and oppressing Iranians for nearly five decades. If you are a lifelong Democrat feeling politically homeless tonight — you did not abandon your party. 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂.
