🔥 BRANDON GILL JUST WENT NUCLEAR ON ILHAN OMAR

Freshman congressman Brandon Gill meets Ilhan Omar on the House Budget Committee.

She storms up to him, screaming curse words and vulgarities because he tweeted that America would be better off if Ilhan Omar were deported. (LOVE IT)

Gill just stands there, takes it all in, and the only thing running through his head is.....man....

“Do you kiss your brother with that mouth?” 😂😂😂

This Is the Energy

✅ No fake smiles.
✅ No “respect the institution.”
✅ Straight savage truth to the face of the Squad’s favorite jihadi sympathizer.

Ilhan Omar can scream all she wants.

The American people are done pretending these clowns are normal.

Brandon Gill is only getting started. 🇺🇸🔥

The Chicago Bears managed to stay in Chicago despite the 1929 Great Depression, WWII, and the 2008 financial crisis, but they couldn't survive two incompetent Democratic leaders in Illinois and now they are moving next door to the Republican run red state of Indiana!

[Yogi @Houseofyogi]

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.

This is Margaret Swan, a great-grandmother stabbed to death 20 TIMES in a random attack in the middle of the day on Atlanta’s public transit. Her murder was the second horrific attack on MARTA in a week.

I want ANSWERS from Atlanta. The number of assaults, robberies, and rapes on MARTA’s trains is MORE THAN THREE TIMES the national average.


MARTA has 15 DAYS from today to provide:

- Security spending

- Safety plans for riders and workers

- Detailed action strategy to prevent crime and fare evasion

Margaret’s family DESERVES ACCOUNTABILITY. No one should be forced to fear for their safety on public transit.

[Rodney Smith Jr @iamrodneysmith]

Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.

More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸

Southampton, England (June 2) — Rioting has broken out in the city where Henry Nowak was stabbed by an Indian and then arrested by police while dying.

Police retreat as rioters throw street bins toward them.

In the heart of suburbia, one bold “Hey, how you doing bro” sparked something beautiful.

A man drove down his street and spotted Justin—shirtless and carefree, tossing a football in the road. He pulled over, introduced himself as the new neighbor three houses down, and the conversation flowed naturally. Justin mentioned he’d just come from church. The newcomer smiled and said, “No way—we have a Bible study every Tuesday night. Would you be our very first neighbor to join us?”

Justin’s face lit up. “Yes!”

What happened next was pure neighborly love: the man prayed for Justin right there on the street. They bowed their heads in the open air, sharing a powerful moment of connection. Before driving off, he handed Justin flowers for his mom for Mother’s Day.

A simple step outside the comfort zone. A conversation. A prayer. And just like that, a new friendship was born. This is what neighborly love looks like. ❤️ 🤝

I was raised to believe a job well done says everything about a person. There's a real sense of pride that comes from knowing you gave something your all, even when no one's watching. Whether it's big or small, take pride in doing it right-because that effort, that standard, is the kind of example you want to be remembered for. 👍
