LAURA LOOMER: “I’m getting really tired of seeing American influencers—people like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, and members of the woke right—claiming that russia is the bastion of freedom, the bastion of faith, and the ideal state for Christianity. Because you’re not going to look me in the eye and tell me with a straight face that you’re preserving Christianity by launching a drone strike on the oldest monastery in Ukraine and quite literally trying to blow Jesus Christ up with a Shahed drone.”
“Rubio thinks the Tates are scum while Vance follows them on social media” might be the most defining aesthetic I can think of for the 2028 shadow primary.
Είδα την Οδύσσεια .Μου άρεσε.Η μουσική της είναι πρωτοποριακή. Οκ δεν είναι ντοκιμαντέρ αλλά είναι μια καλή ταινία .Η σκηνή της Κίρκης είναι για ανθολογία. Δεν είδα κάτι το woke. Πολύ σημασία δίνουμε στους Maga.
IMHO, a lot of conservatives are missing the Biblical forest for the woke trees in Nolan's Odyssey. Yes, the casting of Elliot Page is silly and egregious. But here's the thing: Nolan's "The Odyssey" is an apologia for Christian morality poured into a Greek vase.
The entire movie is rooted in what Nolan terms "Zeus' law." That law is: "Treat others as you would want to be treated, because anyone might be a god." Now, clearly, there's nothing like that in Greek mythology. It's not implicit in Homer. It's a direct rip from Biblical morality, substituting "because anyone might be a god" for "because man was made in the image of God."
Nolan then takes this rule and uses it as his moral glue: the idea is that Odysseus, in utilizing the Trojan Horse, violated Zeus' law and led to full-scale slaughter. That sin has led to the unleashing of broader globalized sin (the "sea peoples" who don't respect Zeus' law and are invading surrounding areas). This is a highly Biblical message: that sin is infectious, and that sin also affects the world at large, not just the sinner.
Odysseus has sinned, and he must atone for that sin through self-imposed exile. He must also sacrifice his own aspirations to restore the possibility of a moral universe: because he has unleashed catastrophic violence and violation of Zeus' law -- manifest in the suitors' cynical use of Zeus' law to eat Penelope out of house and home -- he must violate Zeus' law one last time and then accept the penalty, which is exile.
This is a not only a movie that will make millions of people go read classical literature again. It also reinforces the idea that violation of the Golden Rule has disastrous consequences.
I dunno. I'd consider that, on balance, a large-scale win for civilizational values, when weighed against the woke casting of Elliot Page or the dumbass discussion over whether Lupita Nyongo is good-looking enough (she is, and for the record Diane Kruger is German, not Greek).

Saw the Odyssey last night.
The irony of the right wing backlash is that this is a deeply small-c conservative film. It's about the consequences of defying the gods, and how society crumbles when we violate sacred traditions.
It's such an own goal that the right hates it.
Απλά ξεκάθαρα παραδέχονται ότι το πρόβλημα τους δεν είναι ούτε ο Νετανιάχου, ούτε ο IDF, είναι οτιδήποτε έχει σχέση με το Ισραήλ, ακόμη κ η γλώσσα. Είναι αντισημιτισμός, καμία σχέση με ευαισθησία για τη Γάζα ή τους Παλαιστίνιους.
Αναρωτιέμαι αν όλοι αυτοί οι εγχώριοι απολογητές του Μασκ θα βρουν το θάρρος και την αξιοπρέπεια κάποια στιγμή να απολογηθούν και να ζητήσουν συγνώμη από όλους όσους καιρό τώρα λένε ότι το άτομο είναι ακροδεξιός, γκάου και παλιοτόμαρο🤮
Ας πει κάποιος στο αγράμματο αυτό αντισημιτόπουλο ότι η Θεσσαλονίκη υποδέχεται πάνω από 100 χιλιάδες Ισραηλινούς επισκέπτες κάθε χρόνο. Η πόλη ονομαζόταν παλιότερα «Ιερουσαλήμ των Βαλκανίων» & έχει μία από τις πλουσιότερες εβραϊκές ιστορίες. Ντροπή κάπου🤮

The bipartisan Russia sanctions bill, first introduced by Sens. Lindsey Graham and Richard Blumenthal in April 2025, is finally gaining real momentum after spending more than a year stalled in Congress.
It now has more than 60 bipartisan co sponsors, enough to pass the Senate, and leaders are expected to bring it up for its first floor vote in the coming days.
The bill would impose 100% tariffs on countries that keep buying Russian oil and gas, including China and India. Since they buy most of Russia’s energy exports, it could deal a major blow to the Kremlin’s biggest source of revenue.
It also targets Russia’s shadow fleet, the network of ships Russia uses to get around Western sanctions and keep selling its oil.
The biggest question now is what Trump will do. Will he try to pressure Republicans to slow the bill down, sign it if it reaches his desk, or veto it? In recent days, he has sounded more supportive following Lindsey Graham’s death.
“We’re seriously thinking about it. This is in honor of Lindsey. He wanted this more than any other thing,” Trump said Tuesday.
Enough delays. Pass it now.
Keir Starmer: "I believe Ukraine will win this war. What they've shown is that it's not just the size of your army, it's how you fight modern conflict. And they are probably the most effective fighting machine in Europe. So they will win this conflict and they will get justice."
