This article was written by a 26 yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspecitve..👍🏽

My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!
I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.

I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it.

Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought.

We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!

Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??

Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity."

Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.

When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.

My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress.

Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.

People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.

Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.

We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

@Piper01100001 Yep, and in 5 different states. Though one of those was a grad school unit where 4 apartments shared a den and kitchen, so I don't know if that really counts.

Trump just turned the Abraham Accords into an accountability trap for the Gulf states and Iran walked right into it.

Gulf states like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey have never held Iran accountable is due to exposure. They share a neighborhood. They can't sanction, shame, or confront Iran while having zero security architecture binding them to the West or to each other.

The Abraham Accords change that math entirely. Once Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey are signatories, they aren't just recognizing Israel they are locking themselves into a collective security posture.

A breach of the Iran deal becomes their problem to call out, not just America's or Israel's. You can't sign a normalization framework and then look the other way when your new partner Israel is threatened by a nuclear Iran. The accords create skin in the game.

If Iran violates the deal, the Gulf states aren't just silent bystanders anymore. They're co-signatories of the broader peace architecture. The political cost of looking away just went from zero to enormous.

That's why markets are surging and oil is dropping. The world is pricing in something it hasn't seen in decades, a Middle East where the neighbors themselves have a structural reason to enforce the peace.

Genius.

I've seen my post all over the internet. Time for another repost here.

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

@RepLuna I also notice how all the Senators who are "panicking" over what Trump is doing...

...ARE ALL PERSONALLY ON VACATION AND NOT WORKING FOR 9 DAYS

MEANWHILE TRUMP HAS SKIPPED HIS SON'S WEDDING AND SURVIVED ANOTHER ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT

AND. IS. STILL. WORKING.

California gave ONE nonprofit $1 BILLION.

To put solar panels on poor people's roofs.

You know how much solar they actually installed?

$72 million.

That's it.

So where the FUCK is the other $928 MILLION?

I'll tell you exactly where.

The same nonprofit that WROTE the law that gave them the money ALSO got the contract to run "community outreach."

Same guy runs the nonprofit AND the program. Chris Walker. Two paychecks. Look it up.

And their SISTER organization — same building, same staff, same donors — is a 501(c)(4) that endorses Democrat candidates and runs door-knocking operations in the EXACT SAME NEIGHBORHOODS.

Connect the dots, idiot.

You pay $7.50 a gallon for gas.

Cap-and-trade takes a cut at the pump.

That money flows to "climate justice nonprofits."

Those nonprofits funnel it into Democrat get-out-the-vote machines.

You. Are. Funding. The. People. Who. Are. Robbing. You.

Every time you fill up your fucking tank, you're paying for a Democrat campaign volunteer to knock on a stranger's door and tell them how amazing Gavin Newsom is.

$928 MILLION.

GONE.

And not one journalist in this state asked a single question until @jennyraeca and CAL DOGE pulled the receipts.

You think this is the only one?

There's a hundred more like it.

This is how California works now.

This is how a "blue state" stays blue when only 48% of the voters are Democrats.

Wake the fuck up.

If you're upset with @LeaderJohnThune, read this and see what he is doing to block President Trump's agenda.

As of May 18, 2026, the 119th Congress has seen approximately 730 House-passed bills sent over to the Senate.

SEVEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY.

And the overwhelming majority are STILL sitting there pending, stalled, slow walked, buried in committee, or trapped behind Senate procedure while the clock keeps ticking on President Trump’s term.

President Trump has just over 2 years left.

This is NOT the time for delay.
This is NOT the time for Senate games.
This is NOT the time for “process.”

This is the time for ACTION.

Here are just SOME examples:

- SAVE America Act
Passed the House on February 11, 2026. STILL stalled in the Senate. Roughly 96+ days sitting there while Republicans talk endlessly about election integrity.

- H.R. 1834 — “Breaking the Gridlock Act”
Read a second time in the Senate on February 10, 2026 and placed on the legislative calendar. Approximately 97 days old and STILL sitting.

- Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act
Passed the House. STILL pending in the Senate while Americans are warned about financial surveillance and government overreach.

Now look at this insanity:

- H.R. 8469 → Passed House May 15, 2026 (400-15 vote). Pending in Senate.
- H.R. 8365 → Passed House May 14, 2026. Pending in Senate.
- H.R. 5625 → Passed House May 14, 2026. Pending in Senate.
- H.R. 6260 → Passed House May 14, 2026. Pending in Senate.

And that’s just THIS WEEK.

Meanwhile, there are ENTIRE batches of bills from:

- October 2025
- September 2025
- Summer 2025

that are now sitting:

- 200 days old
- 300 days old
- 400+ days old

with little to NO Senate movement.

Why?

Americans are sick and tired of hearing about:

- Senate procedure
- Filibuster excuses
- Internal negotiations
- “Timing concerns”
- Political calculations

The American people voted for RESULTS.

The House is passing bills.
President Trump is signing Executive Orders.
But Executive Orders are temporary.

Congress is supposed to CODIFY the MAGA agenda into LAW.

That means:

- Election integrity
- Border security
- Energy independence
- Anti-DEI protections
- Government accountability
- America First economic policies
- Anti-CBDC protections
- Immigration enforcement

ALL of it should be moving with urgency RIGHT NOW.

Instead, the Senate feels like a bottleneck.

And MAGA voters need to start asking hard questions.

Why are Republicans campaigning like fighters but governing like managers?

Why is there no wartime urgency when Democrats spent years aggressively pushing their agenda at full speed?

Why are Senate Republicans acting like they have unlimited time when President Trump’s legislative window is rapidly closing?

John Thune, people are watching.

This is your Senate now.

The excuses are running out.

MAGA needs to raise its voice NOW before this historic opportunity slips away into procedural paralysis and political cowardice.

Stop the speeches.
Stop the optics.
Start codifying the agenda.

In 1913, Union and Confederate veterans returned to Gettysburg for the 50th anniversary of the battle. Men who had shot at each other across that stone wall, who lost brothers, limbs, and friends, crossed the field and shook hands.

They chose to be Americans again.

113 years later, Gavin Newsom calls Texas, Florida, and Georgia “Confederate states” because he lost a redistricting fight.

Veterans who actually bled in that war found a way to come home as one country. Newsom can’t lose a political argument without dragging the ghosts of it back out to score points on Twitter.

That’s the difference between men who built this country and the politicians currently running it into the ground.

[Taya Bass @travelingflying]

Christopher Hitchens: ”In 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.”

Abraham was old.
Joseph was immature.
Moses couldn’t speak clearly.
Rahab had a past.
Jonah ran.
Esther was overlooked.
Peter denied.
Paul persecuted.

And God still used every single one of them.

Just like he is using President Trump! This is worth the watch ! 👇👇👇

WAKE UP: THIS IS NOT A NORMAL ELECTION CYCLE

If you’ve been sitting out primaries and midterms, that’s no longer an option.
2026 and 2028 will decide who actually controls the system - not just who wins an election.

Republicans, stop assuming “Trump’s back, we’re good.” That mindset is how you lose everything.

STACK THE SYSTEM ON “DAY 1”

This isn’t conspiracy - it’s being said out loud.

James Carville openly admitted Democrats would consider adding Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. as states the moment they regain full power.

Not debate it. Not campaign on it. Do it.

That’s four new Senate seats and guaranteed Electoral College votes - manufacturing a permanent advantage.

Call it whatever you want. It’s not balance. It’s structural control.

REDISTRICTING FOR PERMANENT HOUSE CONTROL

The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee is treating 2026 as a “once-in-a-generation” opportunity.

Translation:
Flip state legislatures → redraw maps → lock in power.

At the same time, Suzan DelBene and House leadership are publicly talking about “affordability”… while quietly building the infrastructure to control future elections.

Messaging on the surface. Machinery underneath.

REWRITE THE RULES, THEN CONTROL THE NARRATIVE

Chuck Schumer has already framed voter ID concerns as a “myth.”

That’s the setup.

Push maximum access, resist stricter verification, then label any opposition as “anti-democratic.”

Meanwhile, they outperform in low-turnout elections - because their base shows up when yours doesn’t.

This isn’t about persuasion. It’s about turnout math.

OBSTRUCTION AS A STRATEGY

The playbook is already forming:

- Investigations
- Impeachment threats
- 25th Amendment talk
- Blame inflation, tariffs, and costs on Republicans

Figures like Abigail Spanberger are already previewing it.

Win Congress → stall everything → regain full control in 2028.

HISTORY IS NOT ON YOUR SIDE

Midterms punish the party in power.

Look at 2018 United States elections.
Look at 2006 United States elections.

Waves happen when one side shows up - and the other assumes things are fine.

WHAT THIS ACTUALLY MEANS

If you sit out:

You’re not neutral.
You’re conceding ground.

Primaries decide who fights.
Midterms decide who controls Congress.
2028 decides everything else.

BOTTOM LINE

Democrats are playing long-term power politics. Openly.

If Republicans treat elections like optional events, they lose by default.

Vote in the primaries.
Show up in 2026.
Prepare for 2028.

Or don’t - and watch the system get reshaped without you.
