RE: Pride Month
Dear LGBTQ+ People:
We don’t care who you love.
We don’t care what you do to your own body.
We don’t care what you do in private with other consenting adults.
We really don’t care. (And I would protect with my life your right to not care what I think and my right to not care what you think.)
I think I speak for most conservative Christians when I say all that.
What we DO care about is when you endlessly try to shove your lifestyle down our throats and when you try to convince children to join your lifestyle, against their parents’ wishes. Further, we DO care when you require us to accept things that our faith says are sins as not being sinful.
That’s for each of us to decide, and not you.
This is why conservative Christians despise the fact that you attempt to take an entire calendar month to shove your lifestyle down our throats. Live and let live, we say. But you cannot accept that.
It is YOU who are intolerant.
I know not all LGBTQ+ people think this way, but to those who do: KEEP IT PRIVATE BECAUSE WE DON’T CARE.
Love and Peace,
Conservative Christians Everywhere
@MarinasHammer People reach out to candidates running for office because everything else they have tried with the people already in office has failed. They’re desperate for help.
Safety is essential.
We did this!
As a regular citizen candidate - before even being elected - we shined a light on this outrageous salary hike that would have taken Salt Lake County Council pay from $50,000 to $180,000 on your dime… and we BLOCKED it!
Full steam ahead. We’re just getting started!
🚨 UPDATE: Tom Homan reveals he PERSONALLY went inside Delaney Hall ICE facility to eat the food himself, confirming leftists are LYING about the "hunger strike"
"I made a surprise visit this weekend and walked into the cafeteria and ate the same meal that the detainees around me were eating!" 🔥
"And I made sure my tray equaled their tray! I had spaghetti and meat sauce. I had beans. I had green beans. I had bread and rolls. I had drinks. I had dessert. The food was good."
"It's all a false premise. There was never a hunger strike...I found out they're ordering food from the commissary and eating in their cells. So there wasn't any abuse!"
"That facility isn't going anywhere. We're going to enforce the law. We're going to detain people." 🇺🇸
Egyptian Copt Christian explains how Egypt became Muslim:
“We are one of the first Christians in the world. Islam took over by the sword. They killed the men, raped the women, enslaved the children.
Egypt went from 0% to 90% Muslim. It’s a cult of sex, perversion and violence.”
Council Chair Aimee Winder Newton wrote: “I’m so sorry that she refused to pay the hotel costs that she was supposed to cover…I’m a little concerned that maybe Councilwoman Pinkney does not understand how this works.”

Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.
George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.
Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.
And we all know why.
During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.
They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.
And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.
This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.
This needs to stop.
🇺🇸 The U.S. Army just ran a massive hackathon called Operation Jailbreak.
Engineers from Boeing, Palantir, Anduril and others flew to Fort Carson to solve something that has plagued the army for years: American weapons can't talk to each other.
In days, five companies built a machine-gun robot networked into drones and counter-drones, controlled from a single screen.
The Army Secretary wants solutions deployed to CENTCOM within 30 days to counter Iranian drones.
It only took a war, a hackathon, and probably tons of energy drinks to get there.

🚨 SEC. SCOTT BESSENT SAYS IT PERFECTLY: "A nation that cannot manufacture, mine, ship, or refine its needs, gradually cedes its strength and sovereignty to others."
"That is a DANGEROUS dependency for any country. It is an unacceptable one for the United States of America." 🇺🇸
"The truth is that for too long, America had been asleep. We mistook comfort for strength. We substituted efficiency for resilience and consumption as a measure of prosperity."'
"We told ourselves that so long as goods were cheaper overseas, it did not matter whether factories went dark in Michigan, Ohio, or Pennsylvania."
"We assumed that supply chains would always function smoothly, and adversaries would always behave responsibly, and the invisible hand would correct vulnerabilities that too few in public life had the courage to confront. And while we reassured ourselves with those assumptions, risk accumulated all around us."
"Somewhere along the way, we lost sight of a foundational principle that previous generations understood instinctively."

Selective enforcement isn’t compassion, it’s surrender.
Trespassing. Human waste.
It’s no different than the failure to prosecute shoplifting.
Decline is a choice and the result of leaders who refuse to enforce basic laws.
Salt Lake deserves better.
WATCH: Alan Dershowitz Goes Nuclear on the Democratic Party.
"I'm going to be supporting the Republicans in the midterm election! The Democrats have not only lost my votes, they have made me an enemy! I'm not a Republican, but I'm against the Democratic Party."
The United States of America is the greatest force for good in the history of the world.
Yes, like all nations, we have always had warts and pockets/events of extreme evil.
But that does not change the truth of my first sentence.
THE USA IS THE GREATEST FORCE FOR GOOD IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
Yet Democrats refuse to celebrate our 250th national birthday because Donald Trump was Constitutionally elected as President.
DISGRACEFUL.
There is something darkly amusing about the fact that selling victimhood to the most privileged people in history has become such a lucrative and big business.
When I was on tour with @jordanbpeterson he talked about many things, but probably the most common recurring theme was the "Spirit of Cain". It seems our ancient and sacred texts tell these stories for a reason: victimhood is easy, seductive and addictive. And now profitable too.
We are living through a perpetual victimhood escalation battle where people (and groups) now compete not on merit, but on the supposed disadvantages they face. Which makes perfect sense since this is the incentive structure our societies have been encouraged and forced to adopt.
“Go out there and light a candle. Be a ray of light… If correcting all the world’s ills seems a daunting task, so be it. Go out there and be undaunted. If we cannot look to you to change the world, tell me to whom we should look.”
