I don't think very many Americans realize that most GWOT vets view Operation Epic Fury as the culminating strategic victory that their earlier sacrifices were a preliminary part of.
This is redemption for the past 25 years, and further back even for some.
America, are you getting this?

🚨 HOLY CRAP. James O’Keefe went undercover as a Homeless Man and has ON CAMERA the Homeless Population being paid CASH for Ballots
- James O’Keefe’s team posed as homeless on LA’s Skid Row and recorded 28 separate instances of paid petitioners handing out cash ($2–$10 per signature), cigarettes, and marijuana in direct exchange for signing voter registration forms and election petitions — a clear state and federal felony.
- Petition circulators openly admitted they are paid per signature and can earn $1,000+ in a single day; one bragged, “$7 a signature, $5 a signature, $10 a signature.”
- Homeless individuals were repeatedly told to use fake addresses (“You can just put Pinocchio Lane” / “Oh, you can just fake an address”) and many had zero understanding of what they were signing.
- Petitions included radical measures funded by Uber, Delta, United Airlines, and the American Hotel & Lodging Association — such as a 5% “one-time tax on billionaires for healthcare” and overturning LA’s $30 minimum wage for hotel/airline workers.
- Taxpayer-funded Weingart Center (CEO previously earned $432,000) employees actively directed homeless residents to the bribe-paying petitioners and coached plausible deniability: “See they say ignorance is no excuse for the law. But a lot of times, I have to say ‘I didn’t know, I had no idea.’”
- The activity violates 52 U.S. Code §10307 (federal) and California Election Code §18603 (state); identical crimes led to arrests on Skid Row in 2016 and felony charges in 2019 — yet LAPD officers on scene shrugged it off as “a civil lawsuit.”
This is documented proof of widespread election fraud in California!
Thune only needs a simple majority vote to proceed to the SAVE America Act. But he won’t do that. He doesn’t want you to see the vote fail when people like McConnell vote against.
So instead of moving to the House-passed bill, he’s going to go out of his way to set up a 60-vote obstacle which will doom the bill to failure but will allow puke Republicans to pretend to support it since they know it’s dead anyway.
This is classic FAILURE THEATER.
I don't think Senate Republicans grasp what will happen if they do not pass the SAVE Act.
To the people who put Republicans in power, integrity in our elections is the NUMBER ONE issue they care about.
If the GOP fails in this, literally half of their voters will walk away. They won't become Democrats, they'll just withdraw from public involvement, stop voting and start hoarding canned food and ammunition.
If the GOP fails to pass the SAVE Act, the BEST CASE scenario for the GOP is that we go back to the 1960s where the Democrats had overwhelming control of both Houses and the Presidency.
Worst case?
The GOP goes the way of the Whigs, the entire conservative right descends into fractured, ineffective factions and the Democrats gain multi-generational control like has never before been seen in the USA.
GOP, failing to pass the SAVE Act will destroy your party.
And it will destroy the USA.
Choose wisely.

I would like to hear ypur commentary on this most recent picture of ICE absolutely terrorizing this little child.
See the alt txt for my commentary on Ed.
@seamus_coughlin@ProdigalThe3rd Fascism is when you try to prevent fraud and corruption, antifascism is when you violently oppress the population to stop that from happening.
@AlaskanCourtney Stay safe. I hate it when the inside of your nose freezes. -23 is the coldest I remember (signed on WUTK that morning and called NWS for conditions and forecast), though there was a day during basic in 1989 so cold we were not allowed out of the barracks at Leonard Wood.
Eric — Mary and Joseph were legal immigrants complying with the rules of the Roman Empire. Rome ordered a census and Joseph had to be counted because Bethlehem was his city. Basically the opposite of illegal immigration. Lying about this is Christophobic.
Also, God created borders. In Acts 17:26, God says he "marked out" nations and the "boundaries of their lands" while in Deuteronomy 32:8 he is said to "set the boundaries of the peoples."
The Bible even praises walls:
"A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.” - Proverbs 25:28
Walls and borders mean order, protection and responsibility for your nation + its people.
What you should worry about is that your open borders party let in close to 15 million illegals in 4 years. This allowed historic levels of child trafficking and rape in the process. Oh and massive waves of drugs that killed our citizens. I think that upsets God in a way that you should truly fear.
Now stop inventing a fantasyland where your deranged beliefs are somehow biblical. You support literal butchery of children with sex changes so don’t you dare use our Christian faith to pretend you have some moral high ground. You are a viper of the worst kind. Merry Christmas.
@TheTNHoller@SpeakerJohnson How many times have Democrat senators voted to continue the #SchumerShutdown now? 14 times? 15 times? I’ve lost count. Democrats have it within their power to fund the government. Due to the filibuster, GOP does not.
@KrisB_Brown@GovCox Brady was founded in 1974 as the National Council to Control Handguns (NCCH). From 1980 through 2000, it operated under the name Handgun Control, Inc. (HCI). In 2001, it was renamed the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence,
Your goal is to ban guns, not make anyone safer.
This country needs Constitutional Awareness Training for all government employees, appointed officials, judges, federally elected officials and military with annual refresher training required.
Also all military basic and officer training need a course that explains the oath. 🇺🇸
I sometimes think about the poor German police officer who died in the line of duty.
His fellow German citizens had managed to wrestle a Jihadi to the ground, but he tackled the good samaritans off the terrorist.
The terrorist stabbed the officer in the neck and killed him.
As a decorated law enforcement officer who has taken many, many hours of deescalation training, please allow me to clear up any points that were misconstrued…
If you charge at me with a knife, I will shoot you until the threat is neutralized. Period.
Hope that clears it all up.
Thank you, my name is Zeek.
