I have a ten year old Doberman named Drago. Over the past decade I’ve bought him every toy you can buy. None of them lasted a day. He ripped them all to shreds.

A week ago I was at Target and saw a stuffed lamb (might be a sheep I have no idea) for sale. Bought it for Drago, expected it to last ten minutes.

I’m not sure if he thinks it’s his kid or what but he has not only not destroyed it, he brings it everywhere. When he eats, he brings it to his bowl. When he goes outside, he takes it. I’m fairly certain that if I tried to take it from him he would kill me. 😂

Tens of thousands of trees are being cut down in Georgia to make way for transmission lines for data centers

- 1,000 miles of new lines are being installed by Georgia Power
- Equivalent power of 4 million homes will be used
- 330 homes impacted
- 30 homes full demolished
- 80% of power generated is going to data centers

Estimated tens of thousands of trees being cut down for the new lines. 400 trees were cut down just one one property

Where are the environmentalists??

Did you know that you, as a taxpayer, are paying a terrorist front group to plant immigrant terrorists in US cities? That's right, over the past several yrs, Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has rec'd 100s of 1000s of $ in fed+state grants to resettle Afghan refugees +other Muslim immigrants, many of whom have been charged w/ terrorism

Today @USDA @SecRollins and I secured a major win for animal welfare.

Ridglan Farms will transfer its remaining 475 beagles out of a research breeding facility and into the care of a no-kill rescue, where they can begin the path to adoption.

Thank you, @LaraLeaTrump, for championing this issue.

We are also launching a new @NIH office, ORIVA, to speed the transition away from animal testing and toward modern, human-based science.

We will keep fighting for humane treatment of animals, better science, and accountability.

🚨 JUST IN: Senate Leader John Thune tells President Trump NO, they WON'T attach the SAVE America Act to the FISA bill as Trump requested because it's "unrealistic"

At EVERY POSSIBLE OPPORTUNITY the SAVE America Act gets stalled and blocked.

IT GOT 50 VOTES ON THE FLOOR, nuke the filibuster so JD Vance can swoop in and break the tie! 🔥

Listen to Trump = win. It is a simple equation, Thune!

You turned the state's "behested payments" system into a slush fund for your private interests. Your government is an empire of fraud. Resign.

On this day in 1985, US Navy Sailor Robert Stethem was shot in the head by Hezbollah jihadists onboard TWA Flight 847 after being beaten and tortured for almost 24 hours.

His lifeless mangled body was then discarded & thrown out onto the Beirut airport tarmac.

RIP Petty Officer 2nd Class Stethem 🇺🇸

One of the great ironies about the #FIFA World Cup in America is that European patriots can celebrate their national pride and wave their national flags without fear of arrest or persecution by police.

Think about that for a second or ten.

The narrative about a supposed $300 billion “Iran investment fund” is being deliberately distorted by grifters to generate clicks and controversy. In reality, this is not an unconditional handout. It is a conditional incentive or, in simpler terms, a “carrot.”

Under this approach, Iran would first have to fully dismantle its nuclear program, completely end its support for terrorist groups, and carry out meaningful internal reforms. Only then would the United States help organize a group of investors to pursue commercially attractive opportunities in Iran.

The aim would be to create deep economic ties and mutual interdependence that make future conflict far more costly for all sides and demonstrate that choosing peace delivers greater long-term benefits than continuing to back terrorism.

The only people who could possibly oppose this plan are those who are either financially benefiting from prolonged conflict or are individuals of severely low intelligence… or perhaps both.

BREAKING: The DOJ is investigating Gavin Newsom and his wife Jennifer Newsom

🚨 Jennifer Newsom has funneled nearly $4 MILLION DOLLARS to herself from her nonprofit funded by Gavin Newsom’s donors

- Jennifer Newsom’s nonprofit, The Representation Project, is funded in large by Gavin Newsom’s political donors
- Jennifer Newsom has taken $1.8 million in salary
- She sent $2.1 million more to her production company ‘Girls Club Entertainment” funneled from the nonprofit

Textbook money laundering

[Hans Mahncke @HansMahncke]

This is spot on. Zuckerberg did not just help Biden become president in the conventional way by pouring money into his campaign. He did something far worse, with effects that may have permanently changed American elections. He funneled half a billion dollars into election offices to expand mail in voting and ballot drop boxes, concentrating that money overwhelmingly in Democratic strongholds.

🚨 D.C. MAYOR RACE TURNS FULL SOCIALIST CHAOS, ANOTHER ZOHRAN MAMDANI STYLE RADICAL LEADING!

D.C. Mayor candidates made their pitches before tomorrow’s primary, and topping the Democratic leaderboard is city councilmember Janeese Lewis George, a proud socialist and political twin of NYC’s socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

President Trump was asked how he’d react and didn’t hold back:

“Maybe we’ll take back Washington. We won’t put up with it. We’re not going to lose our businesses.”

Exactly right. America will not let radical socialists turn our Nation’s Capital into another failing blue city disaster.

The left is doubling down on the same failed policies that are destroying New York and other cities. Enough is enough.

Strawman, the argument.
