DID YOU KNOW? 🤔

​The original Jeep wasn’t born for off-roading—it was marketed as farm equipment! 🚜💨

After WWII, Willys released the "Civilian Jeep" (CJ) as a do-it-all workhorse that could plow fields, pump water, and even run power saws.

​Turns out your favorite trail-ready rig started out as a glorified tractor! 🧑‍🌾🌲

We are winning. My team just helped win a major victory for a whistleblower, a Missourian, who exposed the Biden Department of Education’s defiance of a federal court order to keep forcing radical gender ideology on American schools.

This fight started when I was Missouri Attorney General. This was a big win. We have to keep fighting to make sure the bureaucrats are held accountable.

Here's what happened.

In 2021, the Biden Administration tried to rewrite Title IX by decree. The Department issued guidance claiming that a law enacted to protect women and girls also required schools to adopt the Left’s gender-identity agenda.

Missouri fought back. We joined twenty states in court, and in 2022, a federal judge blocked the Department from enforcing that guidance in the covered states.

That should have settled the matter. A federal court had spoken. The Department had its order.

Biden’s Office for Civil Rights kept moving anyway.

OCR leadership continued opening, mediating, investigating, and resolving cases built on the same gender-identity theory the court had blocked. Their workaround was simple: avoid citing the forbidden documents while continuing to enforce the substance of what those documents said.

Career officials in Kansas City understood what was happening and refused to participate. Rather than respect their duty to follow the law, OCR leadership pressured them, routed cases around them, and told them not to put disagreements in writing.

Then a whistleblower brought evidence to my Senate office, and we pressed for answers.

The Department’s first report tried to wave the whole thing away. It claimed the whistleblower misunderstood the injunction and that OCR had done nothing wrong. That story collapsed under scrutiny.

The Department was forced to reverse course, and the Office of Special Counsel has now confirmed that the whistleblower’s allegations were fully substantiated.

So here is the record.

I fought this as Missouri Attorney General. I stayed on it as Senator. And now the Biden Department of Education has been forced to admit that OCR defied a federal court order so it could keep imposing a radical gender-identity mandate on American schools.

This is why oversight matters.

The administrative state cannot rewrite federal law, ignore federal courts, punish career officials for obeying the law, and turn Title IX into a weapon for gender ideology.

This is a victory for the rule of law, for the whistleblower, for the states that fought back, and for every parent, student, and school district that should never have been targeted by this lawless bureaucracy in the first place.

Now the Department of Education needs to finish the job.

It should identify the officials who directed, approved, assisted, participated in, or concealed this misconduct; impose discipline where warranted; audit every affected OCR case in the covered states; protect the whistleblower and every career official who followed the law; and give Congress and the American people the full truth.

Court orders bind bureaucrats too.

We’re honored to have been mentioned on @TheFive yesterday during their segment exposing the SPLC’s absurd “Hate Map” and their decision to add us to it.

The result? Threats against our members, deplatforming from over a dozen companies, and ongoing bans from services like PayPal and Venmo.

This is how the SPLC operates: weaponizing smears to silence dissent.

We couldn’t be happier to watch this fraudulent joke of an organization finally be held accountable.

Thanks for the shoutout @EmilyCompagno. It is truly insane that trying to protect children from predators got us and many others labeled a hate group.

Bill Maher SLAPS AROUND the artist that PULLED out of the Freedom 250 Concert: “They all pulled out. This is a question of what looks best for the Democrats because I don’t think that looks good. It looks like you are just what people say about you: you don’t really love America. It looks like you think that Trump is more important than the country itself.”

“Now it’s just a big MAGA rally… because they all pulled out.”

“Wouldn’t it have been better to play this gig?… Just celebrating America. Can’t we all just celebrate America itself and leave Trump out of it?”

Chicago lost the Bears this week. A team that's been in the city since 1921.

They didn't lose them to a bigger market or a better deal. The Bears decided they'd rather be a tenant in Indiana than deal with Illinois for one more year.

Think about how badly you have to run a place for that to be the smart move.

They lost them for two reasons.

The people running Illinois would rather villainize a builder than keep one. And they're bad at their jobs.

In 2021 the Bears spent $197M on the old Arlington Park racetrack.

Before they could break ground, Cook County valued the empty lot at $192M (Bears said $60M). They were salivating at the chance to extort a building that didn't even exist yet.

That fight dragged on for years.

The Bears were ready to put $2B into the stadium. All they wanted was a promise the county wouldn't reassess them into oblivion, plus $855M for infrastructure everyone uses. Roads, transit, utilities. A $3B project, two thirds of it private money pouring into Illinois.

Springfield had since 2021 to get this done. They dragged it to the final night of session, passed it through the Senate at 3:39AM, and the House went home without voting.

So now it's all gone.

The funniest part? This started because Cook County tried to grab the tax early. They knew a built stadium would pay $53M a year. Now they get under $4M on a vacant lot. No jobs, no buildout, no new anything.

Congrats on fighting for scraps and losing the whole prize.

Pritzker: they're "an $8.5B valued business" that doesn't need propping up.

But be smart for a second. Almost every NFL city throws in public money for a stadium. Not charity. The return is real. Tourism, hotels, restaurants, jobs, game days, property tax on a huge development. The math works.

Indiana did the math. While Illinois sat on it for years, Indiana passed a bill in months, put up $1B, and took the team.

And the Bears took a worse deal to get there. In Illinois they were going to own their stadium. In Indiana they rent it from the state. A team that wanted to build its own home gave up ownership just to escape Chicago.

Nobody won but Indiana. The Bears lost their stadium. Illinois lost the team, the $2B, and $53M a year in taxes.

Pritzker after they left: "I wasn't willing to give up billions of dollars of taxpayer money to give it to a billionaire-owned family or team."

There it is. "Billionaire-owned."

That's how Democrats talk about any business right before they run it out of town. Call them a billionaire, act like you're saving working families, take a victory lap while the tax base drives across the state line.

Meanwhile they're running the whole state into the ground. And you already know how this ends. You're living in it.

Pensions are $143B in the hole, worst in the country and not close. You pay $6,285 a year in property taxes, double the $2,969 national average, for a city that's $1.15B in the red. The mayor called its finances "the point of no return."

When you run things this badly, you sell what's left.

They leased the parking meters for 75 years to Morgan Stanley and a sovereign wealth fund in Abu Dhabi. Took $1.15B and burned through it in two years. The investors already made it all back, with 58 years left to collect.

Sold the Skyway. Sold the downtown garages. Every asset that made money, gone for one check.

But a fixed property tax rate for a team that's been here 106 years? That's "propping up billionaires."

Companies are leaving. Boeing for Virginia. Caterpillar for Texas. Citadel for Miami. In 2023 alone Illinois lost 56,000 people and $6B in income to other states. The ones who left earned a third more than the ones who moved in.

Indiana didn't outbid anyone. AAA credit, 16 years straight. A $676M surplus. Fourth-lowest debt per person in the country. They just weren't a disaster.

Illinois could have collected $53M a year. It chose zero. Ignore all the bad management but make sure to stick it to those evil, pesky billionaires.

Deportations are a great affordability policy for America.

Biden's mass migration flooded the housing market, flooded the labor market, crushed wages, drove up rents, and then acted confused when young Americans couldn’t afford a home.

Deportations can reverse it.

Shouts “someone is going to find you” while signaling a gunshot to the head.

“I want you to go into any leftist organization and show them my photo and they will know who I am” he yells when I ask him how he has helped society.

Uncovering fraud and helping America has become the most dangerous job in America, unfortunately.

The Senate just passed my provision to put an end to one of the most indefensible public-safety failures in America—criminal illegal aliens sitting in jail then released into American neighborhoods by Democrat politicians because of sanctuary policies.

In 2025 alone, sanctuary cities and states released nearly 18,000 aliens from custody instead of transferring them to ICE.

That is a betrayal of every American family forced to live with the consequences.

My provision supercharges ICE with the resources it needs to meet these criminals at the jailhouse door and arrest them the second they're released.

If sanctuary cities will not protect their people, ICE will have the resources to do the job. This is a major victory for public safety, border security, and the rule of law.

En 1984, un homme assis face à une caméra a décrit notre époque avec une précision qui glace.

Yuri Bezmenov n'était pas un espion de roman. Journaliste soviétique, homme de l'agence Novosti et du KGB, il avait passé sa carrière à fabriquer de l'influence avant de faire défection en 1970. Ce qu'il est venu dire à l'Ouest tient en une phrase : la vraie guerre que menait l'URSS n'avait presque rien à voir avec les missiles ou les espions. C'était une guerre psychologique, lente, patiente — la « subversion idéologique ». Selon lui, l'essentiel de l'effort des services y était consacré. Pas pour voler des secrets. Pour modifier la perception du réel de tout un peuple, au point qu'il ne puisse plus, même face aux faits, défendre sa propre survie.

Il décrivait quatre phases.

1️⃣ La démoralisation. La plus longue : 15 à 20 ans, le temps d'éduquer une génération. On ne détruit pas un pays par la force, on le retourne contre lui-même. On travaille l'école, l'université, les médias, la culture, jusqu'à ce qu'une génération entière grandisse en méprisant son histoire, sa nation, son héritage, ses pères. Le détail terrifiant : une fois la chose accomplie, elle est irréversible. Ces gens sont « programmés ». Exposez-les à des faits authentiques, des preuves : ils refuseront de les voir. Ils continueront à se croire vertueux en démontant ce qui les protège.

2️⃣ La déstabilisation. 2 à 5 ans. On attaque les fondations : l'économie, l'autorité, les rapports sociaux, la défense. Tout ce qui tenait devient « négociable ».

3️⃣ La crise. Quelques semaines. Un choc, un point de bascule, et une société désorientée réclame elle-même qu'on la « sauve ».

4️⃣ La normalisation. On installe un nouvel ordre, présenté comme une libération. Le mot est emprunté, avec ironie, à la « normalisation » de la Tchécoslovaquie écrasée après 1968.

Puis 1991 est arrivé. L'URSS s'est effondrée, l'Occident a fêté sa victoire, et on a rangé tout ça au rayon des vieilles peurs.

Mais on confond le lanceur et la charge. Ce qui est tombé en 1991, c'est l'État soviétique — la fusée. L'arme idéologique, elle, avait déjà été tirée des décennies plus tôt. Et une arme de démoralisation a cette propriété diabolique : une fois la première génération retournée, elle n'a plus besoin de Moscou. Elle s'auto-réplique. Le commanditaire peut mourir, le programme tourne tout seul.

Regardez où nous en sommes.

Le wokisme n'est pas une lubie d'étudiants. C'est la phase terminale du processus que Bezmenov décrivait. Une civilisation qui enseigne à ses propres enfants que son héritage est une honte. Qui transforme ses universités en tribunaux permanents contre elle-même. Qui réécrit son histoire en réquisitoire et culpabilise jusqu'à sa propre existence. La démoralisation devenue religion d'État. Le réflexe de survie d'un peuple — sa fierté, sa continuité, son droit à se transmettre — requalifié en crime.

C'est exactement le symptôme qu'il annonçait : des sociétés incapables d'évaluer un fait évident dès qu'il contredit le dogme. Montrez-leur les chiffres, les conséquences, le mur qui approche : elles applaudiront leur propre dissolution en la prenant pour du progrès.

Or une civilisation qui se déteste ne se défend plus. Elle s'excuse d'exister. Et un organisme qui a désappris à vouloir vivre est déjà à moitié mort.

Voilà pourquoi ce combat n'est pas « culturel » au sens décoratif. Il est vital, au sens propre. Réapprendre à aimer ce qu'on est, transmettre sans honte, défendre une continuité plutôt qu'organiser son repentir perpétuel — ce n'est pas de la nostalgie, c'est une condition de survie. Une civilisation vivante est une civilisation qui ne se hait pas. Le reste, c'est la mort, en version rassurante.

Bezmenov terminait sur un avertissement simple : il reste très peu de temps avant que le processus ne devienne irréversible.
