Christopher Hitchens: โIn 1786, when the United States was barely a country, it was having its sailors taken as slaves by the Barbary states, the states of the Ottoman Empire and North Africa. Tripoli, shores of Tripoli. Ships stopped, its crews carried off into slavery. We estimate 1.5 million European and American slaves taken between 1750 and 1815.
Jefferson and Adams went to their ambassador in London and said, why do you do this to us? The United States has never had a quarrel with the Muslim world of any kind. We weren't in the crusades. We weren't at war with Spain. Why do you do this to our people and our ships? Why do you plunder and enslave our people? The ambassador said very plainly, Mr. Abdul Rahman said, because the Quran gives us permission to do so, because you are infidels, and that's our answer. Jefferson said, well, in that case, I will send a navy which will crush your state, which he did.
Islamic fundamentalism is not created by American democracy. It's a lie to say so. It's a masochistic lie, and it excuses those who are the real criminals, and blames us for the attacks made upon us.โ
๐จ HOLY CRAP! In a massive scandal, the Federal Reserve has quietly admitted that Biden's illegal alien invasion SURGED home prices by +30%, directly harming US citizens' affordability
This comes as President Trump has BLOCKED taxpayer mortgages and housing assistance to illegals
THE BETRAYAL OF OUR LIFETIMES!!
+30% in home prices?! The media should be talking about this 24/7!
A mother in Oregon is told she can no longer have access to her child patient portal
โI just got done taking my son to the doctor and they tried telling me at the front desk that I don't have access to his patient portal anymore because he just turned 13. Are you kidding me? He is under the age of 18. He is my child. I should have access to what his medical stuff is. That is insane to meโ
This is real and because Democrats are trying to twine away parents rights from their own kids
Hereโs what happens at age 13 in Oregon
Oregon Minor Consent Laws kick in, minors gain rights to confidential care in certain areas without parental knowledge or consent
- Age 14+: Can consent to outpatient mental health, drug and alcohol treatment
- Age 15+: Can consent to general medical, hospital, dental and surgical care
- Any age: Full confidentiality for reproductive health birth control, STI, HIV testing and treatment
Systems like MyChart and Epic often default to restricting or segmenting parental (โproxyโ) access starting at age 13
Who needs enemies when you have Democrats. They are literally restricting you from knowing what your own kid is doing medically
Lyn Alden: "The best product Coca-Cola ever sold was their bonds, not their Coke."
Coca-Cola borrows at 2-3% while the money supply grows at 7%. They then use that cheap debt to buy scarcer assets.
Governments do it. Corporations do it. Wealthy individuals do it. Everyone is shorting the currency...
Except the people at the bottom.
They can't access cheap debt and "are getting the full damage of the inflation" on their wages and savings.

I feel like the photo of this Black women surrounded by dozens of masked, anonymous, white nationalists is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
This is absolutely insane and beautiful. 2500 drones putting on a jaw dropping show over North Richland Hills Texas for America 250. Bald eagle, rocket, Uncle Sam saying I Want USA, George Washington, astronauts on the moon, and more.
Texas knows how to celebrate freedom. This is next level patriotism.
Happy 4th of July yall! God bless America!

This just gave me chills!!
Happy 250! Happy 4th of July!!

Thereโs no shame in being a broken man.
Just pick up your pieces and build again.
Get back up.
Get the fuck back up.
Thatโs independence.
Independence from your past.
You arenโt failing.
Youโre learning what not to do.
The storm always ends.
Learn to dance in the rain.
๐บ๐ธ 250 years ago we declared independence from the British Empire. 125 years ago, they stole it backโand erased the evidence.
This July 4th, Trump is reclaiming what McKinley died for: the American System.
Reminder that if you are fully vaccinated and up to date on boosters, you are allowed to celebrate the Fourth of July.
Those vaccinated are even permitted to have a very small backyard barbecue. Five person maximum.
Property taxes. Income taxes. Social security taxes. They were never meant to fund YOU.
They were meant to fund the criminal syndicate โ the money laundering โ the central bank system.
If you spoke to someone from the 1800s about property tax they would say "you're paying WHAT?" We were conditioned generation by generation to accept their system.
