🔥NEW: Clarence Thomas — full remarks on progressivism, its foundations, history, and impact from his appearance at University of Texas at Austin: “Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, and Mao were all intertwined with the rise of progressivism, and all were opposed to the natural rights on which our Declaration is based.” "Many progressives expressed admiration for each of them shortly before their governments killed tens of millions of people." "It comes as no surprise that the progressives embraced eugenics... It was only a small step for Wilson to resegregate the federal workforce." "It was only another step for the government to launch sterilization programs on those deemed by the experts of the day to be unfit to reproduce." “European thinkers have long criticized America for remaining trapped in a Lockean world, with its weakened, decentralized government and strong individual rights. They say our 18th-century Declaration has prevented us from progressing to higher forms of government." "But we were fortunate not to trade our Lockean bonds for the supposedly enlightened world of Hegel, Marx, and their followers. Fascism, which after all was national socialism, triggered wars in Europe and Asia that killed tens of millions." "The socialism of the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China proceeded to kill tens of millions more of their own people. This is what happens when natural rights give way to higher-good notions of history or progress, or, as Thomas Sowell has written, the visions of the anointed." "None of this, of course, was an improvement on the principles of the Declaration. Tocqueville's Democracy in America is largely about how America owed its superiority over Europe to its conscious decision to reject central planning and administrative rule, root and branch." "Progressivism, in other words, is retrogressive.”

@jackunheard Not the Bible, but a compulsion to curse himself, apparently?

NEW: Outrage has broken out after Pope Leo appeared to quote Jesus using a passage that does not exist in the Bible. “Jesus told us, ‘Blessed are the peacemakers, but woe to those who manipulate religion in the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.’” The first line echoes scripture. The rest does not appear in any biblical passage. The Pope is being accused of using a fabricated quote from Jesus to push a political message.

@elonmusk ✅ that covers everything!

If only we’d trained Grok on just these 2 books, we’d be done already!

@NoFilterSkin @threadreaderapp unroll

YOUR PHONE HEARD YOU THINK. You didn’t search it. You didn’t say it out loud. You thought about it. And 20 minutes later it was in your feed. Here’s what’s actually happening. 🧵

BREAKING — For the first time in a decade, over HALF of GenZ Males AND Millennial Males are reading the bible weekly. Bible sales are SKYROCKETED in every single demographic in 2025. Incredible.🙏

@RepLuna @libsoftiktok @GovRonDeSantis Looks like Florida is the place for families with children to move

Attention pedophiles: Now, according to our new state law in Florida, if you rape a child you will be put to death. Keep your hands off our children. Thank you to the Florida legislature and @GovRonDeSantis for getting this done.

Repost this. Steal this! Idc!

@MrsCMFrancis That tune kept coming up in my mind on Sunday, lol (as I was watching the TPUSA halftime show)

Don’t tell me God doesn’t have a sense of humor. The man responsible for iconic Veggie Tales “the Bunny Song” in which “the bunny” is code for the idol all the people are peer-pressured into worshiping, is out here defending the Bad Bunny halftime show because it was fun.

@JessicaVaugn @ScottAdamsSays Good to see a photo of him looking healthy and happy. Thanks for sharing!

I shot this portrait of @ScottAdamsSays just outside the doors of his office desk where he recorded each morning. There was still morning dew on the railing. Scott didn’t want to shoot in this spot, but I insisted, believing you might want to see Pleasanton, the Mayberry-esque California town he loved to mention on stream, in passing. He never once believed California was beyond fighting for politically. No cause of importance was ever hopeless in his eyes.

@sal_buscema @GuyDorianSr1 Happy Birthday, Sal!

Hello Everyone! This is my official Twitter account curated by my long-time collaborator @GuyDorianSr1 . Guy will be adding photos of my work, every week or so. Best Wishes from Your Pal Sal.

There's so much beauty in the world. Here are the beautiful snow capped mountains of Tennessee.

@Igottafigh64510 The British accent is ironic because they’re handing out real punishments over public speech.

This is so needed, especially for this app😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@JackPosobiec @DLoesch Your question sounds like the one I got from someone demanding a verse commanding people to be straight. Unfollowed

@DLoesch These are excellent passages, but you did still not answer my question Would you like to try again? Where does it say that we are to read ‘the Bible?’

If you read the Bible you’ll know. Here is a helpful start.

@TinaNixa @jaysonyork Dispensationalist here. The point she’s making applies equally to sincere believers of all types trying to understand Revelation. In 404 verses there are over 800 Old Testament quotes, allusions and figures of speech. It assumes you are a student of what comes before it.

@jaysonyork Are you being humorous? She’s explaining covenant theology (which is evident beginning in Genesis) vs Darby’s dispensationalism.

I am of average intelligence, I study and preach the Bible vocationally, I teach the Bible multiple times a week, spend hours in study, counsel the word, etc: AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS MEANS AT ALL

casually crying over hebrews 10 bc God loves us so much and it’s so apparent here 😭🙌🏼

@HansFiene Dispy Independent/SBC/non-denominational garden variety Christian

@HansFiene The One & only true & living God entered creation through incarnation so that He could live a perfectly obedient life and exegete Who God is, then suffer in my place and rise in demonstration of my justification. When I repent of my dead works and trust only in Him, He saves me.

Do me a favor: In a few words, tell me how you would summarize the meaning of "the gospel." Then, if you're so inclined, tell me what your denomination/church body/theological tradition is.
