Happy 250th Independence Day, America! 🇺🇸
On July 4, 1776, our Founders declared independence and enshrined timeless truths in the Declaration of Independence:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"
Though imperfect, these United States became a beacon of hope and opportunity by rejecting age-old collectivism and the rule of elites, placing the individual above the state.
In just 250 years, America has helped lift more people out of poverty than any society in history, played a pioneering role in ending the evil of slavery, and created unmatched freedom and prosperity. While maintaining humility, may our example of liberty continue to inspire generations to come.
This shift in attitudes shown below isn't because of increased intolerance, but of an increase in understanding, and trans activists themselves bear the greatest responsibility for the change.
Five years ago, a lot of medical bodies (and trans activist organisations, lobby groups and virtue-signalling celebrities) were united in telling us that puberty blockers were completely reversible and harmless. As more and more evidence accrues showing actual and potential harm, public opinion, unlike trans activism, has shifted in line with the data.
Five years ago, the sophisticated, fashionable line was that sex difference didn't really matter in sport. Trans activists demanded that the women's category be destroyed to accommodate men who claim to be female, but the public wasn't willing to pretend they couldn't see the injustice right in front of their faces.
Five years ago, trans activists and professional lanyard- wearers were chiding us all to use preferred pronouns, because that was kind. Now the public see convicted rapists described as 'she' and 'her' by news outlets and are rightly enraged that journalists are feeding us ideological fiction instead of facts.
Five years ago, a lot of people, especially older ones, were under the impression that trans-identified men had all had full sex reassignment surgery and were sexually orientated towards other men. They didn't know that cross-dressing straight men were now asserting the right to enter all women's reserved spaces. They didn't know how few trans women have had 'bottom surgery.' They know now.
Trans activists are to blame for the hounding and persecution of non-believers, which has spilled into British courts. Women have had to fight all over again for rights they thought they'd have forever. The Cass Review brought shame on all who lobbied to continue a broadly unresearched and unevidenced medical experiment on minors. Trust in institutions, in academia, the media and the medical profession has been severely undermined. Politicians have beclowned themselves, willing to parrot self-contradictory slogans and outright absurdities rather than defend truth and freedom of speech.
The stark change in attitudes over the past five years is the direct consequence of the way trans activists set out to 'educate' us all. Giddy with the power they'd been handed by people in authority, they've tried to impose a quasi-religious, elitist, minority belief upon the whole of society. They can't complain (although, of course, they will) that the public has decided it doesn't want to buy what they're selling.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness!"
Happy 4th of July everyone!
To all attending “No Kings” — can I suggest a more impactful way forward...
Most of us are immigrants or descended from them. And we agree: immigrants are the beating heart of this country. The melting pot is our superpower. Diversity built this nation. It fuels our culture, our economy, and our character when done LEGALLY.
Illegal immigration begets many evils for both the undocumented and American citizens. The list is too long for a social post, but I suggest you look into it.
You don’t like Trump? You don’t like ICE?
Understand this: They’re enforcing federal law passed by Congress. This isn’t about one man or one agency — it’s about a government that has refused to fix what’s broken for decades.
Can we stop pretending this is a battle of heroes vs villains. It’s not. It’s a bipartisan failure, decades in the making — with both sides using immigration as a political football while real families suffer.
Harness this momentum and channel it into action. Demand the following from your elected officials:
Humane, streamlined pathways to legal residency and citizenship—because dignity should never be held hostage to bureaucracy.
A surge in immigration judges at the border to ensure cases are heard swiftly and fairly, not lost in a backlog that spans years.
Work visa programs that reflect actual labor market needs, not the whims of political expediency.
An asylum system built for the truly vulnerable—modernized to uphold compassion without sacrificing order.
Aggressive enforcement against corporations that exploit undocumented labor, profiting off the shadows while skirting accountability.
If you care about migrants—not just as a symbol, but as human beings—this is how you prove it.
Really thoughtful of the libs to hold a "No Kings" party for President Trump's birthday today to remind everyone of why the entire country rejected Democrat tyranny 7 months ago 😁 🇺🇸
Today marks the World Day Against Child Labour. Let us work together to eliminate every form of child exploitation for the benefit and profit of others.
On Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation, a debt that can never be repaid. Their courage and sacrifice live on in our freedom and pursuit of a more perfect union. We must always remember and truely be thankful to them for their sacrifice.
What did y’all think "globalize the intifada" meant? Vibes? Papers? Essays? 🧵
It meant this sweet young couple, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, gunned down at an American Jewish Committee event at the Jewish Museum by radicalized monster Elias Rodriguez, chanting “Free, free Palestine.” (1/20)
🚨BREAKING: Karoline Leavitt announces President Trump will require truck drivers to be proficient in English to drive on U.S. roads by Executive Order.
Incredible clip from 1996. Nancy Pelosi on tariffs and the trade deficit with China.
"On this day, your member of Congress could have drawn the line to say to the President of the United States, do something about this US-China trade relationship that is a job loser for the United States."
Thirty years later and our annual trade deficit is now approximately $300 billion annually with China. Our politicians did nothing to stop this. They sold out America.
Now politicians, including Pelosi, are saying that not only China, but all countries should be able to tariff us and we shouldn't respond in kind.
I’ve seen a lot of shocking things in my life. I remember seeing the guy jump of the Twin Towers on 9/11 and ugly weeping for an hour.
I’ve never seen anything as horrific as Palestinian civilians kidnapping children, murdering their mother and strangling infants to death. Then parading the coffins through the streets in jubilation.
Securing the Border: The Compassionate Approach
In just over a week, the new administration has seen a staggering decrease in human trafficking and drug trafficking by over 92%, highlighting a damning reality about past policies. This insane decrease betrays the fact that the increase in human trafficking was not merely an unintended consequence but that it was just a bad but acceptable by-product of the open border policy.
Where was our compassion when children and victims of sex trafficking were being abused? Under the previous administration, human trafficking saw an alarming rise, escalating from $500 million a year to over $13 billion a year in revenue. Despite this, nothing was done to curb these atrocities, and states attempting to intervene faced resistance. Where was our compassion then?
Those seeking to cross the border often wear wristbands, each one a indicating how much debt to is owed to the cartels, debts that if not repaid will result in the killing or torture of family members. Women and children, some as young as nine, face unthinkable assault and rapes. Where was our compassion?
The most recent dialogue around border policy has been reduced to two points:
1. An over-simplified toxic empathy for asylum seekers, ignoring the fact that most of these claims are not valid asylum claims.
2. An evil argument on maintaining a supply of cheap labor, particularly in agriculture.
It's worth noting that asylum seekers have the right to claim asylum at any port of entry, U.S. embassy or those of allied nations. The U.S. has historically been one of the most generous countries in accepting refugees and immigrants, yet the reality of asylum claims is that the system is abused.
The argument for needing "cheap labor" to keep food prices low echoes historical justifications for exploitative labor practices, yes slave labor. Shouldn't we aim for a system where labor is compensated fairly, eliminating the need for exploiting vulnerable migrants?
The new administration is taking extreme steps, unfortunately necessary due to the previous administration, prioritizing public safety first. This is true compassion. After securing the border, there's a plan to address illegal immigration more systematically, followed by a phase of legal immigration reform. This would allow us to greatly increase legal immigration in line with our history and values, ensuring a system that's both compassionate and just.
Where is our compassion?
