@CrystalHope1979 @atensnut @Arkypatriot When I was making coffee a few minutes ago, it started to rain just as the water was boiling. Now that I poured the coffee, the rain stopped. The sun is coming out. Beautiful. Enjoy this victory today.

WE CAN LAUNCH 4 HUMAN BEINGS OFF INTO THE EMPTY VOID OF SPACE TO TRAVEL A QUARTER-MILLION MILES TO SHOOT PHOTOS OF THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON... ...BUT WE CANNOT GET 60 PEOPLE IN BUILDING IN DC TO PASS A BILL THAT SAYS YOU SHOULD PROVE YOU'RE A CITIZEN TO VOTE.

@doogadoo11 Follow the money. Follow his career. Who are the deep pockets behind him?

If Tucker Carlson didn't lose his mind, then what's his current motivation? I can't imagine it would be money. He's very wealthy. So what's his deal?

I'll answer you the same way once more: the back side of the moon away from the sun is dark, but not completely. What do you want to do when you take a picture of the back side of the moon? You have to use the light that's available. You open up the aperture of your cameras so you can use the night light. That's all you're seeing. There's plenty of ambient light.

‘Call me ill-informed, I was an English major, but - what is the light source here?’ I reposted my question. Lots of people are having a good laugh, and you are welcome to, but I am not ashamed to ask very basic questions about fields not my own, of other people online; and I prefer to have human conversations with knowledgeable people rather than ask AI or Google websites as a first resort. I put this question badly in haste I concede but I meant: please explain where the astronauts are in space in relation to this image, where is the sun in relation to this image, where is the earth in relation to this image, what time of day or night it is on earth in relation to this image, and what is the relationship of our day or night on earth to this light on the far side of the moon. Curiosity isn’t always well put and wasn’t in this case but I think it’s always a useful quality.

Most people are scared of animal fat. Not mildly cautious. Not mildly uncertain. Genuinely, viscerally afraid. The kind of fear that bypasses logic and lives somewhere older in the brain, next to the thing that makes you nervous on high ledges. Which is strange. If you step back and look at the whole of human history, fat from animals occupies a position that is almost sacred. The fattest cattle went to the king. The marrow was cracked open at every feast from the Stone Age forward. Roman soldiers paid a premium for lard. The Irish buried butter in bogs and dug it out aged and preserved and ate it with the satisfaction of people who understood what they had. Explorers took pemmican because it was the only food that could keep a man alive, moving, and functional in conditions that killed everything else. Weston Price travelled the world and found that every traditional culture he visited prized animal fat specifically, often going to considerable lengths to secure it, and the ones without access to it showed it in their bones and their teeth. For most of human history, fat from a well-fed animal was not a concern. It was an aspiration. Then, in approximately fifty years of the twentieth century, several decades of emotional propaganda funded by industries with obvious financial interests managed to take ten thousand years of instinct and invert it completely. Not through debate. Not through clean evidence. Through repetition and authority and the human tendency to believe that official sources must have done the maths. They hadn't done the maths. The maths has since been done. The fear will take a long time to unravel. You can read all the right papers and still feel a flicker of something when you add the third spoon of butter. That's not you being irrational. That's forty years of messaging doing exactly what it was designed to do. Give it time. The butter doesn't care about the messaging.

@mattvanswol All I can say to that is 1) pray, 2) vote MAGA for the midterms.

Why does everything feel like theater? We have a Congress that won't pass something 83% people want. We have a judicial system that doesn’t hold criminals accountable. We have an education system that doesn’t educate. We have a non-profit system that profits from our tax dollars. We have a health care industry that profits from you staying sick. We have a financial industry that needs you to stay in debt. We have an insurance industry that fights every single claim. It just all feels so fake, so theatrical.

@MAPatriot1630 There's a major difference between a complete ground invasion like we had in Iraq and special forces going in and doing what special forces do.

@sbarra8680 I think this is the best solution, honestly. That's what special forces are for.

If we have boots on the ground, it will be nothing like Iraq. Trump is not interested in slogging it out for years. Maybe for 3 months total. He's not interested in keeping an Islamic terrorist regime in power. He's not interested in anything of that nature. He may take Kharg Island, to keep the oil flowing from ships traversing the strait, and take a fee to pay for the US involvement and insure the safety of ships going in and out, and pay for an extra carrier group on station, and arm the resistance fighters.

Kharg Island is the key. That is the blood supply for the Islamic Regime. I believe that President Trump will either seize Kharg Island or destroy the oil facilities there. Seizing would be better but more dangerous because it will require boots on the ground. Our successful rescue of our pilots despite maximum Iranian resistance has likely emboldened Trump to attempt to take the Island. The technology we used in the Maduro raid could also help. What do you believe the best strategy is?

Good morning to everyone who knows we need to get rid of everyone in congress and just start over.

this is true.

The tomb is empty. He is Risen. Happy Easter Everyone.

Instead of “Eating the Rich” I think we should add a wealth tax to members of Congress.

Never take advice from someone with less ambition than you. Never listen to anyone who isn’t financially, emotionally, or physically where you want to be in life. They’ve already given up on themselves; they only know how to be compliant, and misery loves company.

If bartenders can go to jail for overseeing a drunk person who drives, then judges should go to jail for violent criminals they released who later killed someone.

There is no place in America for Sharia Law; it stands for everything our Western values stand against.

America needs to rid itself of all the radical activist judges and go hard on violent criminals to truly make America great once more.

I’m the first person in my family to graduate from high school. I’m the first person in my family to go to college. I didn’t have a “white scholarship” to push me through. I had 3 jobs, a lot of people judging me, and no sleep. If you want something bad enough, you’ll do it.

@mitchellvii @FranDeMario2 I think President Trump means what he says. He will exact a penalty for 47 years of terrorism, if Iran does not step forth. He is a man of his word. He sent the military to do a job.

This is a very bold statement from President Trump. People have asked me what my position on this is, so I'll tell you. Wait and see. President Trump's style is to go for maximum pressure. That way the moves that he does eventually make, which might have seemed over the top before, suddenly seem like a relief compared to Armageddon. I think I know how this will all turn out, but I'm going to keep my powder dry on that. Let's just see what happens and let Trump do his thing here.
