🇪🇸 CAYÓ MELILLA | Luego de la toma de Cauta, los invasores tomaron el control de Melilla y en estos momentos están usurpando casas, robando, apedreando a Españoles e incendiando autos.
Se ruega a la ciudadanía a que no salga de sus propiedades, que estén preparados por posibles entraderas para defenderse y que las mujeres no transiten las calles por posibles violaciones en manada. ¡Esto es una locura!
Ive never seen a culture so absolutely collectively devoted to "bullying."
Everything comes down to antagonizing and being rude under threat of violence if you respond to the antagonism.
That is essentially every single instance of this stuff.
Fauci's diary WASN'T leaked, stolen, or hacked. It wasn't even "private." @SecKennedy breaks down exactly how he uncovered it:
“If you do something on a government server, it belongs to the government. He was keeping a diary for the book that he intended to write about his life. And at the end of his term, just before he was leaving, he emailed the entire diary to himself... And that's how we found it, through those emails.
It's not a diary in the sense, like you said, that a teenage girl keeps a diary that's private and has a lock on it. This is a government computer, a government laptop, on government time, keeping this account of what his official duties are and then making private observations about them.
The liberal media is now feigning indignation that we released private diaries and violated his privacy, but that's just a crazy assertion. What they're really doing is covering up this vast media malpractice that took place during COVID, when they elevated this guy to a deified status, who had funded the weaponization of coronavirus, who then had given it to a Chinese military-run lab.”
The Cash for Clunkers program, which Congress passed in June 2009 and burned through its $3 billion budget in under two months, destroyed functional wealth on a national scale, and somehow they called it "stimulus."
The mechanics were simple: trade in a working car, receive up to $4,500 toward a new one, and watch government employees pour sodium silicate into the old engine to make it seize permanently. Around 700,000 vehicles got crushed. These were not rusted-out death traps. The eligibility rules required the trade-in to be drivable and insured. You were watching the state systematically annihilate usable capital because Keynesian demand theory told it that destruction generates recovery. Frederic Bastiat explained why this is wrong in 1850, in an essay short enough to read on your lunch break. Congress ignored it.
The ripple effect hit people the government never mentioned in its press releases. Mechanics lost repair work. Used-car dealers watched their inventory evaporate. Low-income buyers who depend on the sub-$5,000 market faced prices that jumped roughly 10% in the years after the program. Free market economists call this "seen versus unseen." Politicians only showed you the gleaming new Chevy Malibu driving off the lot. They never showed you the single mother in Akron who needed a $3,000 Corolla and found nothing affordable left on the lot.
Even the environmental justification collapsed under basic scrutiny. A 2009 study by Resources for the Future calculated that the program cost between $237 and $365 per ton of carbon dioxide reduced. The voluntary carbon credit market at the time priced a ton around $10 to $20. The government spent up to thirty times the market rate to achieve an environmental outcome the market was already pricing far more efficiently.
This is what central planning always does. It takes your money, destroys real assets, and transfers wealth from the poor to auto manufacturers and their financiers. The program's designers received awards. The Akron mother paid higher prices. The engines sat crushed in junkyards. Nobody in Washington answered for any of it.
@EricLDaugh Remarks like this piss me off and do nothing but help Democrats. This isn't 10 years ago and Texas isn't what it used to be. Thinking Repubicans are a shoe in will lose us the state.
Unlike like the lie that is the Gaza "genocide", there is an abundance of footage showing how Nigerians are being slaughtered by Islamists. The type of Islamists that are no different to Hamas or the Gazans supporting them.
Where's the outrage?
You chose 1973 as your baseline. Let me tell you what happened in 1973.
The dollar fully floated after Nixon severed gold. The first Pell Grants were awarded. The HMO Act was signed. Your chart does not start before the crisis, Bernie. It starts at the scene of the crime.
Healthcare up 35x because Medicare, CON laws, and the AMA cartel run medicine.
Homes up 13x because zoning makes building illegal and the Fed prints.
Rent up 15x because price controls and zoning strangle supply.
Tuition up 23x because federal loans gave colleges a blank check.
General prices rose 7x in that span. Everything government controls rose 13x to 35x. Everything it leaves alone got cheaper.
You are not the prosecutor of this case. You are the defendant.
Matthew 25 is not a command for the government to create a welfare state. It is a command to Christ’s followers. The government is not an individual with a soul made in the image of God. It’s a bureaucratic institution.
One of the biggest mistakes Christians make is confusing the role of the Church with the role of the state.
Jesus’ command in Matthew 25 is directed to His followers not to Caesar.
God gave the civil government a specific responsibility: to uphold justice, restrain evil, punish wrongdoing, and preserve civil order (Romans 13:1–7). Government exists to protect life, liberty, and peace so that people can live together under the rule of law.
But God gave the Church a different mission.
Feeding the hungry. Rehabilitating prisoners. Caring for widows and orphans. Comforting the sick. Loving our neighbors. Showing hospitality to strangers. Bearing one another’s burdens. Those are not responsibilities we can outsource to the state.
A government cannot love your neighbor for you. It also cannot spread the gospel or evangelize for you or repent. That’s on you.
Christians may reasonably disagree about the appropriate scope of government assistance for the poor. But Matthew 25 has zero to do with the government.
The New Testament consistently gives commands like “feed the hungry,” “care for widows,” “visit prisoners,” and “love your neighbor” to the Church and to individual believers. But not to the civil government.
Christians don’t outsource obedience to the state.
Christ never once commanded the Roman government or the Roman civil authorities to do anything.
I know Pastor Nuhad Hassan personally.
He is a Kurd from a Muslim background who converted to Christianity and led a church in Lebanon for over a decade.
On July 19, Pastor Nuhad went to Syria to visit his village, and on July 20 he was arrested by al-Julani’s government over posts he made during the Afrin massacre against the Kurds.
I just hung up the phone with friends and family members who are seriously concerned that he will be sentenced to death, the judges in Syria today are former ISIS jihadists, and they will sentence him according to sharia.
I will contact the members of Congress who support al-Julani and urge them to intervene for Pastor Nuhad’s release.
Please pray for him.
I have no words…
Democrat NY Judge James F. Bargnesi just SPARED a couple jail time after they pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter for starving their 2-month-old baby to death
NO JAIL. For causing the death of a baby.
These activist judges are a danger to our country
