Marco Rubio's Munich Speech was word perfect. The Americans couldn't be clearer: they love Europe and Britain, they see themselves as the keepers of the flame of Western civilisation and they want us to pull our weight.
I just hope our leaders listen.
Avoid highly processed food.
This statement is not a legal definition or an attack on an industry – it is a public health truth that Americans already feel in their bodies and see in their families.
This food, as outlined in the Dietary Guidelines, includes:
➡️Packaged, prepared, ready-to-eat, or other foods that are salty or sweet, such as chips, cookies, and candy that have added sugars and salt.
➡️Foods and beverages that include artificial flavors, petroleum-based dyes, artificial preservatives, and low-calorie non-nutritive sweeteners.
➡️Sugar-sweetened beverages, such as sodas, fruit drinks, and energy drinks.
Diets dominated by these foods – engineered for shelf life, speed, and addictiveness rather than nourishment – are strongly linked to obesity, Type 2 diabetes, depression, heart disease, certain cancers, and shortened life expectancy. The consumption of these foods is contributing to trillions of dollars per year in healthcare costs. This has led to a dynamic where sick-care companies have gotten rich and our farmers have suffered.
Today, nearly 70% of an American child’s diet is defined as ultra-processed – in other countries, this is below 20%.
There is no more science-based or urgent public health message than to limit highly processed foods and eat real food.
We all know the American diet must incorporate more real food and less highly processed food - let’s use this political moment to achieve that.
Democrats have talked for decades about lower drug prices.
Democrats have talked for decades about healthier food and better school lunches.
It’s finally happening in a profound way, and they are obstructionist and recalcitrant.
I remember when the Olympics were a huge deal. Summer or winter, every night you watched the events with tremendous pride. Politics were not involved. We did not know the party affiliations of the athletes. It was simply about patriotism and competition.
“Why is it always the woman who stays home? Why can’t men?” This is a favorite feminist talking point. It sounds fair… until you apply basic logic, biology, and common sense.
The premise assumes men and women are the same, but we are not.
Women don’t stay home because they’re oppressed. They stay home because they carry the baby, birth the baby, bond with the baby, feed the baby, and calm the baby with their very presence.
it’s biological design. Infants instinctively seek their mother. Her voice, her smell, her body, all of it regulates and soothes the child in a way nothing else does.
“But men can be nurturing too!” Sure. But that doesn’t mean they’re equal substitutes. Saying men can stay home doesn’t mean they should.
Men are not made to nurture the way women are. They are made to protect, provide, and build. That’s not less important, it’s equally vital, its just different than the nurturing of a woman, because we are indeed built different.
Most mothers, even those with careers, would prefer to be with their children if they had the option.
Feminism desperately wants to frame the home as the worst place for women, but for most of us, it’s the center of life, where we are most irreplaceable, and most needed.
Want to know what happens when both parents are out of the house all day? You raise a generation of kids who bond with strangers more than their family, who live in systems, rather than the safety of homes.
“Why is it always the woman?” Because we were made for it.
Men and women aren’t competitors, we complement, and most of all we aren’t interchangeable. Civilization falls apart when we forget the difference.
I’d like to propose that the worst 1% of appointed judges, as determined by elected bodies, be fired every year.
This will weed out the most corrupt and least competent.
Dear Putin,
I hope this post fiinds you well... We want you to know, the American people do not support Ukraine or this administrations escalation over there.
It’s only our corrupt neocon government that does.
Signed,
Real Americans
Happy Sunday!
Please take a quiet moment today to thank Jesus Christ for delivering this nation from evil.
We just won the greatest spiritual battle of a generation. Only possible by the power of God.
Share if you agree 🙏
To all those states that signed onto the interstate agreement to award electoral votes for President of the United States by national popular vote...now's your chance!
President Donald Trump should lead the nation in a day or prayer and repentance. We have allowed God’s children to be sold, tortured, raped & murdered for money. We have allowed God’s children to be chemically castrated & mutilated. It is time for us to do better.
Florida is the 3rd most populated state in the USA and they'll have their votes counted and the results on election night.
Any Secretary of State in any state who gets on TV today and says it'll take days to count the votes is a cheater, a traitor, and should be arrested.
As the former US Ambassador to Mexico, I can confirm this. On Day One, the Biden/Harris Administration issued a raft of regulatory policy changes that drastically increased the incentives for illegal migration. The law did not require them to do this—in fact, the law did not allow them to do this. For them now to defend their willful actions by saying “the law is broken” is Orwellian. THEY BROKE IT! The “border bill” they love to talk about would have watered down the law by normalizing their defiance of it. Yes, the bill also included some more resources/money for border control—but those resources are needed only because they unleashed this migrant tsunami in the first place. The border catastrophe is not fundamentally a problem of resources but of Biden/Harris executive policy. They should at least have the decency to acknowledge and defend their policy instead of trying to pretend that they were “tough” on the border, which is obviously untrue. Problem for them is that the only conceivable “defense” of allowing in millions of illegal aliens is a deliberate attempt to import what they view as future voters.
TOWN HALL: Kamala Harris's disastrous Univision town hall featured a 'fake' audience. 50% of the attendees were handpicked from across the country and flown to the town hall and were allowed to ask questions. The other 50% of the attendees were hired by an 'audience-for-hire' company and weren't allowed to ask questions. The event was completely stage directed and fake.
