Out of 16.4 million Americans who served in WWII, only about 40,000 are still alive.
They’re dying at a rate of ~100 per day.
These are the heroes who saved the world from tyranny.
Find one. Thank one. Listen to their stories.
While you still can.
Dans le manifeste "techno-optimiste" de Marc Andreessen, il y a une phrase qui m'a marqué :
"Our enemies are not bad people – but rather bad ideas."
Nos ennemis ne sont pas des mauvaises personnes. Ce sont des mauvaises idées.
Prenons Jancovici. L'homme est brillant, sincère, travailleur. Il ne se lève pas le matin en se disant qu'il va nuire à l'humanité. Mais l'idée qu'il porte la décroissance, le rationnement, la frugalité érigée en horizon civilisationnel est une idée profondément destructrice. Elle prend des esprits brillants et les transforme en commissaires politiques d'un futur appauvri.
Et le plus fascinant, c'est ce que cette idée fait aux gens qui l'adoptent.
Dans mon entourage, une grosse partie de mes amis est sur cette ligne décroissantiste, avec tout le package qui va avec. L'argent c'est mal mais ils en veulent. Il faut moins prendre l'avion mais ils rêvent de voyager partout. Il faut consommer moins mais ils ne renoncent à rien de ce qu'ils aiment vraiment.
Et tous ont un point commun : ils sont déprimés. L'un d'eux m'a même confié qu'il était sous antidépresseurs.
Ce n'est pas un hasard. C'est mécanique.
Quand tu crois que ton désir de vivre, de créer, de t'élever est moralement suspect tu te détruis de l'intérieur. Tu passes ta vie à t'excuser d'exister. Tu vis dans la dissonance permanente entre ce que ton corps veut (plus, mieux, plus loin) et ce que ton idéologie t'ordonne (moins, sobre, immobile).
D'où ma théorie :
Quand on pense quelque chose de fondamentalement faux décroissance, communisme, extrémisme religieux (de tout ordre) ce n'est qu'une question de temps avant que ça devienne vraiment destructeur.
D'abord pour soi. Puis pour les autres.
Les mauvaises idées tuent. Lentement chez ceux qui y croient, brutalement chez ceux qui les subissent.
C'est pour ça que la bataille des idées n'est pas un luxe d'intellectuel. C'est la bataille la plus importante de notre époque.
They arrested the President of the United States of America 4X, charged him 91X, indicted him 4X, spied on his campaign, sabotaged his first term, jailed his supporters, raided his private residence, censored him, gagged him, tried to bankrupt him, and attempted to remove him from state ballots.
When all of that failed they tried to assassinate him not once but four times.
And they go on national television to talk about how we need to vote for them to save democracy.
I’m sick and tired of it all.
I’m sick and tired of traitors wearing suits and smiles while they sell us out.
Sick and tired of Candace Owens turning every headline into her personal drama tour.
Sick and tired of hearing about Joe Kent, somebody I’d never heard of three days ago.
I’m tired of MTG's Botox sunburnt face and that cheap boxed bleach job she runs through her hair every six weeks.
Tired of Thomas Massie’s Jerry curls looking like he just rolled out of a 70s porn set.
Tired of Tucker Carlson and that weird thousand-yard stare he does like he’s reading your soul.
And this ain’t just a Republican problem.
I’m calling balls and strikes on everybody.
I’m sick and tired of the Krassensteins flooding my feed with their cry-baby rage-bait, racking up hundreds of thousands of impressions while the rest of us grind.
Tired of seeing JoJoFromJerz's face caked in enough makeup to spackle a house.
Tired of seeing that thing on Ilhan Omar’s head.
Tired of Jasmine Crockett’s non-stop loud mouth and AOC’s horse face lecturing me about “systemic” everything while she flies first class.
I’m sick and tired of people who break the actual law never seeing the inside of a jail cell.
Fraudsters, corrupt politicians, pedophiles on the Epstein list.
I’m sick and tired of hearing “no one is above the law” when it’s crystal clear that everyone is above the law except you and me.
I’m tired of good things happening to bad people.
Tired of the worst accounts on X blowing up while honest voices and talent gets buried.
Tired of Hollywood elites and late-night “comedians” telling me how to live while they snort coke in mansions.
Tired of corporate suits pushing DEI quotas that punish hard work and reward skin color.
Tired of teachers in schools sneaking in agendas instead of teaching real history.
I’m sick and tired of people telling me to live my life a certain way so I don’t “offend” folks with mental illness.
Biology isn’t bigotry, and I’m not rewriting reality to make anyone feel special.
But what I’m sick and tired of the MOST…are the people who hate America.
The ones who burn the flag, kneel for the anthem, and scream that this country was founded on “stolen land” and “oppression.”
The ones who flood across our border, take our benefits, wave their own flags, and then trash the greatest nation God ever gave man.
The ones in Congress who call America “racist” while cashing taxpayer checks.
The so-called journalists who apologize for every American achievement like it’s a crime to be exceptional.
These America-haters don’t love freedom, they fear it.
They don’t want opportunity, they want equality of misery.
They push socialism in our schools, woke nonsense in our military, and shame in our hearts because a strong, proud America stands in the way of their globalist wet dream.
Well I’m here to tell you...
I love this country with every fiber of my being.
I love the dirt in my backyard, the fireworks on the Fourth, the smell of barbecue on a summer night, and the fact that my three kids can still dream bigger than anywhere else on Earth.
I love the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the flag that flies over my house, and the men and women in uniform who’ve kept us free.
I love that we’re the only nation on the planet dumb enough and brave enough to say “give me liberty or give me death” and actually mean it.
I’m done being polite about it all.
I’ll keep writing, keep voting, keep raising my kids right, and keep standing for the greatest experiment in human freedom the world has ever known.
Because if loving America makes me the bad guy…then lock me up with the rest of the patriots.
I’m sick and tired of the haters.
But I’ll never be tired of this country.
MAGA forever.
The fact that a billionaire real estate playboy who liked to slap his name on steaks and wine has proven to be a better diplomat and military strategist than every other politician and foreign policy expert over the last 30 years is such a damning indictment of the DC establishment I honestly don’t know how they recover.
🚨 WOW! President Trump is shocking the "experts," listing off medication prices being cut a JAW-DROPPING amount
Blood thinner: $750 to *$16*
HIV: $1,500 to $217
Hep B medication: $1,400 to $413
Hep C: $25,000 to $2,500
THE FAKE NEWS WON'T ADMIT IT!
"All prices are like that, because we're bringing them down to the world's lowest price. EVERYTHING."
This is absolutely enormous.
@ScottPresler If Republicans could eliminate cheating in the Metro Atlanta area, especially Fulton and Dekalb counties, I think Georgia would be a reliable 65/35 Republican majority state.
@robbystarbuck I don’t really appreciate that answer. I understand President Trump would rather talk about all the success, but the American people deserve answers as to who the clients of that sick POS are and we’re obviously not getting that information.
@elonmusk I would guess the majority of people voting "Yes" are democrats. This is about the only hope the left has of regaining power. Just a terrible idea. Oust the garbage in the Republican Party instead!
NEW: Father jumps overboard to save his 5-year-old daughter, who fell off a Disney cruise ship from the 4th deck into the ocean.
The ship was heading back to South Florida when the intense rescue was made.
"The ship was moving quickly, so quickly, it's crazy how quickly the people became tiny dots in the sea, and then you lost sight of them," said a passenger.
The father reportedly jumped into the ocean the moment he realized his daughter had gone over.
"The captain slowed the ship and turned it around, and then they deployed a tender ship with people on it to go get them."
"I saw the mother crying and but when they rescued them, I think that's when the tears really started flowing, because you were just so overjoyed knowing and I prayed to God to save them, and He did," said another person on the ship.
Disney Cruise has since responded to the incident.
"We commend our Crew Members for their exceptional skills and prompt actions, which ensured the safe return of both guests to the ship within minutes," they said.
"We are committed to the safety and well-being of our guests, and this incident highlights the effectiveness of our safety protocols."
@elonmusk While I agree that the government should probably be cut in half, it is simply impossible to do with the current makeup of congress. There are way too many corrupt republicans that will vote with the democrats to protect their grift. Work together & replace congress in ‘26 & ‘28!
