@sdaveb73 @DataRepublican @adamscochran @Moms4Liberty Seriously! No one follows them to their cars, hotels or anywhere. Wouldn’t you think a journalist might want to know who a confederate flag-carrying guy is?!? Track I’m down? Get his name out there? Nope. Crickets.

@Pete_Finnegan @glennbeck The Christmas Sweater? I was there but can’t remember if it was the same year

[Heart and Sowell @DiLouiseD]

@JosephA2Z @glennbeck Me too! If I remember correctly, the Obama administration disallowed a military flyover. But then God took over with the geese in a perfect V-formation!

[Heart and Sowell @DiLouiseD]

@glennbeck Glad I was there to see it in person!

To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

@JonahDispatch I always thought Spain was in Europe, but I learn something new every day.

[Heart and Sowell @DiLouiseD]

@beetootwo @LeahVredenbregt I wondered the exact same thing! Not ONE curious journalist who follows them to their car(s), hotel, anything? Why do these guys remain completely anonymous? At least follow one of the confederate flag guys!!

Amazing how fast the Pentagon’s self-anointed Hall of Sacred Stars turns into a bunch of hysterical old bitches the second Pete Hegseth starts touching their furniture.

For years these pricks ran the place like their own private country club with security clearances and taxpayer-funded bar tabs.

Lose wars? Get promoted.

Botch the Kabul disaster so badly that Americans got left behind and working dogs got abandoned? Circle the wagons and protect your own.

Turn the force into a DEI clown show that prioritized race, gender, and feelings over combat power? Call it “progress” and hand each other medals.

Let retired generals and admirals linger over the active ranks like vultures waiting for their next board seat or cable news hit? That was just “mentorship.”

They built a perfect machine: command a division, lose some wars, retire, then cash in on defense contractor boards, think tank sinecures, and “distinguished” speaking fees while still whispering in the ears of the officers they left behind. And if anyone asked too many questions, the whole rotten club would close ranks and call it an attack on “the institution.”

Now Hegseth walks in and starts yanking out the people who helped turn the United States military into a taxpayer-funded sociology experiment with guns, and suddenly these same arrogant bastards rediscover “norms,” “process,” and “institutional integrity.” Spare me the theater.

This was never about keeping politics out of the military. It was always about protecting the people who already politicized it, institutionalized it, and then decorated themselves for doing it. Hegseth didn’t bring politics into the Pentagon. He found their political machine already installed, running at full power, and guarded by men with stars on their chests and future paychecks in their eyes.

And now that machine is getting smashed.

The howling you’re hearing isn’t concern for the troops. It’s the sound of a corrupt old boys club watching their racket get dismantled in real time.

@Cernovich I’ve tamped down the cannibal scene from my memory of The Road. But every year when my husband and I are fly fishing in a remote area, I think of the brook trout.

@GadSaad As an advanced reader as a child, and an avid reader my entire life, my vocabulary tends to be extensive. So hearing or reading a new word is exciting for me. Keep challenging us!

@BuzzPatterson Yikes!

[Heart and Sowell @DiLouiseD]

@ThePeoplesCube But “Born in the USA” is actually an anti-American song. So, I watched the majesty with the sound turned off!

@Gaynotqueer1 Talk about projection!

[Heart and Sowell @DiLouiseD]

@Sweasty @Sassypsp @BreitbartNews NO! NO! NO! You only have to prove citizenship to REGISTER to vote. If your mom is currently voting, that means she is registered and does not have to prove citizenship. Just a photo ID to vote. Stop spreading this “need to prove citizenship to vote” nonsense. Just stop!

With all of the discussion of “democratic socialism, Mamdani, AOC, whatever, Americans need to watch this, all the way through.

It’s coming, America. You’ve been warned.

[Heart and Sowell @DiLouiseD]

@BobbyJindal Ha! The coastal elites aren’t even paying attention to this! They can’t be bothered with such nonsense as American greatness.

@LydiaMoynihan @bdomenech Ooh! That was a woman?
