On day 1 of my high school history class, our teacher got up and said:

“You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago, people your age were married, planted crops, had children and built a cabin before winter.

You can do your homework. The bar is set embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies.

You just have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe air-conditioned room.

You have no excuses.”

This is the kind of teachers we need.

British police are threatening to ARREST people who use air conditioners?! I didn't realize I was visiting a third world country when I visited the UK last month. This is RIDICULOUS.

@BishopDewar gives an alarming warning about how bad the UK’s dystopian decline has become:

"We're going through what I call 'Texas temperatures' at the moment, because it's like 40 degrees centigrade. That's, you know, 110 plus Fahrenheit. For us in Britain, that's astronomical… Police are turning up and telling people, ‘You either remove your air conditioners, or we'll arrest you.’

We're leading the world in policing thought and policing speech. Now, there are places in the United Kingdom where you can get arrested for praying silently in your head, if you happen to be in what they call an ‘exclusion zone’ around an abortion clinic. And here's the ridiculous part of that law: if I happen to live within the boundaries of an exclusion zone, praying privately in the privacy of my own home, I could now be guilty of a criminal offense as defined by the state. This is what happens when the state thinks it has the right to control every aspect of human life.”

In November 2022, a reporter named Alvin Kaunda was filming a segment at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Nairobi, Kenya. He was attempting to deliver a serious report about conservation while surrounded by orphaned elephants. One of the babies got curious and began exploring the journalist's ear with its trunk. Kaunda tried to stay professional and kept speaking, but the elephant eventually draped its trunk over his face and tickled his mouth. He finally broke character and burst into laughter.

The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust was founded in 1977 by Daphne Sheldrick in memory of her husband, David, the founding warden of Tsavo East National Park. Based in Nairobi, it runs the world’s most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program. To date, the organization has successfully raised more than 320 orphaned elephants, many of whom have lost their mothers to poaching or drought, and eventually reintegrates them back into the wild.

1/🚨 The DOJ just released thousands of pages of Epstein files.

And buried inside them may be one of the biggest bombshells no one is talking about:

The blueprint for a 20-year financial architecture designed to turn pandemics into a profit center.

Offshore vaccine funds. Pandemic reinsurance triggers. Donor-advised fund structures designed to profit under the cover of charity. Simulation programs. Career pipelines into pharma and the World Economic Forum.

All built years before COVID-19. All running through Gates, JPMorgan, and Epstein.

We now have the documents. 🧵👇

Penguins at the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium play in the snow thanks to the recent snow storm.

“Many of the animals like our big cats and elephants enjoy a snow day when they get the opportunity to play in frigid white powder,” the zoo said.

“Animal keepers will bring snow inside for some of our residents like gorillas and siamangs to experience.”

“Penguins love to venture outdoors for a taste of their native waddling grounds, while otters think ice is nice and frolic in their pools with frosty treats.”

“Most of our animals are innately curious and enjoy investigating the foreign weather phenomena.”

Very long list.

America should require ID to vote. It’s a no-brainer!

Yes

At this time exactly 5 years ago I was taken to ICU after I nearly drank myself to death. I was there for 3 days. I was utterly broken after 25 years of addiction, depression and anxiety.

Today I help street dogs and have been sober since. My message to you today is that there is always hope. There is always a second chance. You can do this. ❤️

🚨#BREAKING: Western North Carolina high-school students have been using their carpentry class to build tiny homes for victims of Hurricane Helene, for 15 months.

They have now delivered their first home to a 75 year old cancer survivor for Christmas.

Absolutely incredible!

[American Rancher Alliance/Hufeisen Ranch @WyoWagyu]

We have accomplished more in the last few weeks than anyone expected — and now it’s real.
The American Rancher Alliance is moving REAL American beef into grocery stores as early as January.
Full transparency. Fair prices. No packer games.

We’ve talked to the retailers.
Our producers are ready.
Processors are lining up shackle space.
This movement is moving at full speed — because America needs it now.

If you finish cattle or you’re a farm-to-table producer, we need you ASAP.
If you’re cow/calf, you are the backbone of this entire supply chain — and you’re right behind them.

We are decentralizing the beef system, bringing American beef back to American consumers, and lowering grocery prices while paying producers fairly.

This is real.
This is happening.
And we are just getting started.

👉 Producers: Sign up at https://t.co/7KwykytAVF
👉 Consumers: Follow the movement and share this.

American beef. American hands. American shelves.
Let’s take it back.

Dr. Mike Yeadon, former vice president at Pfizer, implores you to reject digital ID, central bank digital currencies, and UN Agenda 2030.

"By 2030... you will not be able to leave [the country]... you will not own private transport, you will have a digital ID to do everything, and you will only have electronic money with which to transact."

"I would say, at that point, you are a slave."

"And because you can see them coming, you should say no. Say no right now."

[PeterSweden @PeterSweden7]

IT'S HAPPENING

Large protest in London today.

The British people are out protesting against the mandatory digital ID.

They are rejecting tyranny.
