Fluency without the experience underneath is theater. Schopenhauer told us what that would feel like. He just didn't know we'd build machines that live there by default. Or how easily we'd join them.

The rule is: Jewish/Israeli groups may openly cheer and boast that their money defeated a congressman, but YOU may not joke about it, because then you are an anti-Semite
Get used to the rules, because there are going to be lots more of them
Tucker just did a 45 min monologue on the Op to oust Massie and it was scathing. It's so good I'm not clipping a portion of it because you need to listen to the whole thing
Battle lines drawn. No retreat. No surrender. No fear. Feels good
We all know what we're up against, now.
There’s a quiet all out war for the future of our country. Let us not misdirect our precious resources.
I do not believe I lost due to fraudulent votes, mail-in ballots, hacking, or mistabulated results. I respect those who want to make sure, but I won’t be requesting a recount.
The Boomers of Kentucky embarrassed the United States on the world stage today.
Around the world, people genuinely wondered: can an American politician survive who doesn't repeat low-IQ platitudes about Israel and the Middle East?
The Boomers -- with their heterodox Christianity and FOX News propaganda -- gave their answer.
Republican politics is dominated by people who for some reason still think Sean Hannity is a smart guy, and Mark Levin is a constitutional scholar.
Pat Buchanan had given them the example of the learned and articulate right-winger -- and Pat was well to the right of Hannity and Levin -- but they decided to go with Tomi Lahren and Dan Bongino instead.
Oh, Massie voted this way or that, people will say, and that's why he was targeted in this unprecedented way. Yet there's Donald Trump out there campaigning for pro-amnesty Mike Lawler. So I don't believe you that this is a question of Massie's voting record (which is stellar, by the way).
Even if Massie had had a handful of objectionable votes, a million times more important than any Massie vote is this principle:
A patriot who values his country's sovereignty cannot allow three socially leftist billionaires who represent a foreign interest to buy a congressional seat and place a ridiculous empty suit in it.
Even if for some reason you don't like Massie, you as a patriot would have to dislike THAT a hundred times more.
These three billionaires never once set foot in Kentucky -- Kentuckians, to them, are lower than dirt, and exist solely to have congressional seats bought from them.
Put up a nonentity like "Ed Gallrein" who refuses to debate (how can any voter reward that?), have him utter a few Boomer slogans to satisfy the rubes, and otherwise hide him away. That was the strategy. Boomers (yes, I know there are exceptions) are too morally and intellectually corrupt even to understand what just happened.
But the rest of us understand.
Can you imagine "Ed Gallrein" leading the charge against the Covid restrictions? He would have been first in line for the damn "vaccine"!
Remember, too, that the folks who voted for "Ed Gallrein" tonight are the kind of people who think Marco Rubio is an impressive person, so there was no reaching them.
But the younger generations, who don't get their information from the insulting caricature of conservatism that is FOX News, aren't going to fall for the nonsense that snookered the Boomers -- and therein lies hope.
Incidentally, the easiest thing in the world would have been for Massie to buckle. Nobody reading this has the remotest idea the pressure that was brought to bear against him. Not one of his detractors could have lasted a week in Massie's shoes.
If Trump can sup in happy concord with Zohran Mamdani, the radical leftist mayor of New York, you'd think he could have spared a meal with Massie, whose track record proved he was not Trump's enemy.
Not that you'd know it from the anti-Massie brigade (half of whom used to love Massie before they were instructed not to love him), Massie defended Trump through two impeachments, grilled Merrick Garland over FBI assets on January 6, and defended Trump during Russiagate. By contrast, "Ed Gallrein" left the GOP when Trump was elected, and came back only when Biden was in office.
But since we're not completely dense, we know the real reason Massie could not be tolerated.
As Glenn Greenwald put it, "If the AIPAC/Adelson crowd wants someone out of Congress for disloyalty to Israel, they will be out of Congress.
"There are a few exceptions due to unusual districts, but not many. The Israel Lobby has unlimited funding and will spend limitlessly to expunge the blasphemous."
I repeat that no American patriot can tolerate, much less celebrate, this grotesque and demeaning situation.
The polls show that this situation won't exist forever. We will reach a point at which the foreign money (and that's obviously what it is) will at last be a mark of shame for the candidate receiving it. That will be a great day for American patriots everywhere.
Thomas Massie should hold his head high: he stood up against the machine time and again, knowing that it could one day lead to this.
Tonight we have to explain to our kids: in this world, the good guys don't always win. But you fight regardless of the prospects of winning. The fight for what is good and right is an end in itself.
For that reason, people will remember the Thomas Massies and the Ron Pauls. Nobody will remember "Ed Gallrein," not even as the answer to a trivia question.
God bless Thomas Massie.
He walks out of this with his honor intact. He’s a patriot & kept his integrity.
As long as the voters give their votes to whoever can run the most ads we will have politicians who are purchased by foreign governments & corporate interests.
I am proud and thankful to have served in the U.S. House of Representatives with my friend Thomas Massie, a giant among weak pathetic men.
Releasing the Epstein files was our demise.
But it was worth every single bit because now everyone knows the truth.
You are ruled by the Epstein class that cares nothing about you and your elected leaders are bought and controlled by a foreign lobby.
Tonight the future of the Republican Party was destroyed.
The Real America First Movement will rise led by the younger generations, who hate the old guard with an unquenchable passion.
Let us pray that we have a country left by the time these creatures are gone.
I did not see this coming, but my election has become an inflection point for our whole country. Today we make history.
Will you be part of this historic day by voting, calling friends who can vote, posting to social media, or making a donation?
Spread the word fellow patriots!
Think about what it means to be Donald Trump. You can move markets, command armies, bomb Iran, assassinate the Ayatollah. Or, at least tell yourself you can.
And yet there is one stubborn, solar-powered farmer in Garrison, Kentucky who will not bend. @RepThomasMassie has made a career out of being unmovable and no primary challenge, no presidential fury, no threat of any kind has shifted him an inch.
That’s probably the most infuriating thing imaginable — and the most American.
Scam Altman and Greg Stockman stole a charity. Full stop.
Greg got tens of billions of stock for himself and Scam got dozens of OpenAI side deals with a piece of the action for himself, Y Combinator style. After this lawsuit, Scam will also be awarded tens of billions in stock directly.
The fundamental question is simply this:
Do you want to set legal precedent in the United States that it is ok to loot a charity? If so, you undermine all charitable giving in the United States forever.
I could have started OpenAI as a for-profit corporation. Instead, I started it, funded it, recruited critical talent and taught them everything I know about how to make a startup successful FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.
Then they stole the charity.
