“Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence?

Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons in the revolutionary army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the revolutionary war.
They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners, men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured.
Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags.
Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward.
Vandals or soldiers or both, looted the properties of Ellery, Clymer, Hall, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton.
At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. The owner quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt.
Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months.
John Hart was driven from his wife’s bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later he died from exhaustion and a broken heart. Norris and Livingston suffered similar fates.
Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more. Standing tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: ‘For the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.’”

“All in all, @RandPaul identified more than $482 billion in waste. That comes out to an astounding $3,300 per federal taxpayer. What would you have done with that extra money this year?”

There’s no way I could’ve voted for the Omnibus. It’s too much money, there was no committee process, and the bill didn’t extend Title 42.

Americans voted to take Biden’s credit card away. It’s time to bring back common sense to Washington. This ain’t it.

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

Glomming together a 4,155-page, nearly two trillion-dollar bill and releasing it in the dead of night, days before we are forced to vote on it, is no way to run government.

[Bo Snerdley @BoSnerdley]

EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN WHO VOTES FOR THIS WOKE - PORK OMNIBUS SPENDING BILL SHOULD FACE A PRIMARY CHALLENGE.

EVERY SINGLE ONE.

[Michael Seifert @realmichaelseif]

The longest government shutdown in history occurred in 2018-2019 because Trump asked for $5 billion to build the wall.

The $45 billion Ukraine aid in the Omnibus will bring our total given to that country over $100 billion, enough to build 20+ walls on the southern border.

[Tom Cotton @TomCottonAR]

Americans who paid off student loans or never borrowed for school just took on $300 billion in new debt, thanks to Biden's shameless bribe.

[Nick Freitas @NickJFreitas]

Don’t call it “student loan forgiveness”, call it “student loan bailout”.

We’ve now reached the point in time where people and the politicians they elect have decided to pillage the treasury while there’s still money left to pillage.

[Matt Rinaldi @MattRinaldiTX]

Harvard has a $42 billion endowment. Yale’s is $31 billion. But Biden will tax truck drivers and plumbers to pay the student loans that built those empires.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

There is no such thing as student loan forgiveness. There is only student loan transferral, where the debt is transferred from the person who took out the loan to someone else who did not take out the loan.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Notice the scenario in this IRS recruiting program is “taking down a landscape business owner who failed to properly report how he paid for his vehicles,” not “taking down a billionaire who uses the corporate jet for private trips.”

[J.P. Hasson @SonofHas]

Biden promised no tax hikes if you make less than $400K per year

The “Inflation Reduction Act” raises taxes for everyone making over $30K per year

The most telltale sign that a societal group is NOT oppressed is when people voluntarily start trying to 'identify' into it.

Nobody in history has ever volunteered themselves into a truly oppressed group. It's not a thing.

So a 10-year-old girl was raped in Ohio by an illegal alien and could've gotten a legal abortion in the state bc it threatened her life but the doctors didn't report it to the police, shipped her over to Indiana, and turned it into a media story to sell abortion to the public.

[Delano Squires @DelanoSquires]

There was a time when men saw protecting and providing for women and children as *their* primary responsibility in life. Now an entire generation of men think more gov is the solution to EVERY problem, often undermining their own role in the social order. That needs to change.

[ZUBY: @ZubyMusic]

For people who are NOT involved in gangs or criminal activity, the rate of violent crime in most Western cities is actually extremely low.

This is good. But nobody talks about it.

[ZUBY: @ZubyMusic]

The USA is a great country, which is at risk because millions of its people lack the perspective and gratitude to appreciate it.

As a result, they risk undermining or outright destroying everything that enabled them to live comfortably and feel so entitled in the first place.

[Rep Andy Biggs @RepAndyBiggsAZ]

More than 5 million of our emergency oil barrel reserves were shipped to Europe and Asia last month despite Americans already paying historic gas prices.

The Biden regime cannot be helping other countries before our own.
