You get one summer with your newborn.
You get two summers with your toddler.
You get 9 summers with a kid.
You get 5 summers with your teenager.
Cherish. Every. Moment. ❤️
Every man I know has called his wife a nag at least once.
I did it for years. Twenty years of marriage and I spent the first chunk thinking my wife's mouth was the problem.
It wasn't.
Proverbs 27:17 says iron sharpeneth iron. You know what sharpening feels like? It scrapes off everything that's dull and it doesn't ask permission first.
That woman isn't nagging you. She's the iron God put in your house to sharpen you into something useful.
You just don't like the sound it makes.
Proverbs 12:1. Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish.
Brutish. That's the Bible's word for a man who dismisses his wife's correction.
She's not your enemy. She's your covenant. And that covenant included her voice.
This is all you need to do to make millions in the stock market. Save this. Screenshot it. You will need it.
1. VIX above 35: buy aggressively
- High-beta tech, growth, small caps
- Every single time the VIX spiked above 35 since 2018 was a generational buying opportunity. COVID bottom. Oct 2022 bottom. Tariff crash. If you bought when everyone else was panicking, you made a fortune.
2. VIX 25 to 35: start scaling in
- Quality tech, financials, industrials, cyclicals
- This is where smart money starts building positions. Not all at once. Gradually. The fear is real but the opportunity is bigger.
3. VIX 15 to 25: hold
- Balanced: tech + defensives, dividend growers
- This is normal. Stay positioned. Don't chase, don't panic. Let your winners run.
4. VIX below 15: reduce exposure
- Rotate to: utilities, healthcare, staples, bonds
- This is when everyone is comfortable. Nobody is hedging. Nobody is worried. That's exactly when you should be.
- Every major crash in market history was preceded by the VIX sitting below 15 for weeks.
Right now the VIX is at 16. We're in the hold zone. Stay positioned but stay alert.
Bookmark this. The next time the VIX spikes above 35, don't freeze. Buy.
Democrats waited until after the July 4th holiday to code red Platner. They did it with a full week left to force him out of the race. It’s diabolical how they are fine with erasing primaries & hand picking new “nominees” all while claiming Republicans will destroy democracy.
It is utterly inappropriate to use my wife's name. She is not a public figure. She doesn't even have a public social media account. She is not the CEO of my business. She doesn't give interviews or seek fame. Your invocation of her here is a sign of your character, as though we needed another.
I was Candace's employer, sure enough. Like many of her former employers, I feel compelled to stand against her public behavior.
Candace is not only a "married woman" or a "pregnant mother." Candace is also a public figure. She is one of the most famous women in the world with one of the largest podcasts on earth. She chooses each day to sit in front of cameras and to engage in public discourse.
I have never once attacked her as a wife or a mother. I don't criticize her for her looks, or her wardrobe, or her sexuality. I don't dig into her family history, cast aspersions on her grandparents, or question whether or not she even loves her husband.
In short, I do not engage in any of the sort of personal slander your tribe levels at Erika Kirk -- all while hiding behind the idea that her role as CEO of TPUSA somehow makes it appropriate to talk about how much or how little she cries at funerals, or whether or not she is a good mother, or if she hugs someone too long, or, you know, if she murdered her husband, or engaged in child sex trafficking, or is a foreign intelligence asset.
I attack Candace's public work -- the lies she tells, the evil she spreads, the hate and the conspiracies she peddles for fame and fortune.
I do so with sadness for the role I played in her career and with sadness for the waste of such talent as she undeniably possesses.
But I do so secure in the knowledge that the lies she -- and you -- popularize can only be defeated with truth.
And so I am happy to share it.
In life, you must choose your regrets.
“You'll regret it if you get married. You'll regret it if you don't get married. You'll regret it if you have kids, and you'll regret it if you don't.
Kierkegaard said this 200 years ago as follows:
‘Whatever you choose, you'll regret it. Because the problem isn't in your choices; it's in romanticizing a life you haven't lived.
A person always finds an untraveled path alluring and mysterious.
That's why the issue isn't making the right choice.
It's choosing and deciding which regret you'll live with.’
What have you decided?” — Salih Guney
TLDR— NYC election results reflect highly educated yet downwardly mobile white people who are angry that their expensive degrees are worthless and people in jobs they find demeaning (electricians, plumbers) are making more than them

I think some of you may be going a bit far. This administration has done much more for Israel than any other before it. It's not even close. They deserve gratitude for that and I’m not planning on forgetting it.
Regarding the administration's peace initiative: (1) They have no political choice but to act in light of the midterms, and (2) nothing is final yet and it ain’t over until the fat lady sings.
I really think we’d all be better off if we stay cool and spot our friends a little credit.
@brianeskow@burdmanorama Fook all these losers in your comments Brian, the most important thing is to make sure you and your loved ones are safe from the inevitable hate that follows us
This is an extremely difficult read. The barbaric attacks that took place on October 7th are truly beyond words.
THIS is the evil we’re fighting against. It’s why we stand with Israel and our Jewish community. ANYONE who defends Hamas is a terrorist sympathizer and absolutely disgusting.
