I don’t chase trends.
I don’t ask permission.
I don’t shout for attention.

I document what’s real.
What endures.
What refuses to kneel.

Quiet resistance.
American eye.
Unbowed.

“We found 146,000 kids so far. Some of these kids claimed that they were raped over 600 times. I don't care who you are. If you can't stand for law enforcement to go find these kids, who are you?” @SecMullinDHS

@WSPArchive I guess if you’re not in you’re twenties you should just lay down and die because time has run out? Is that the message?

@matt_gray_ Explain yourself, Matt.

Karmelo Anthony. 35 years in prison. Good. Should’ve been more.

[Secretary Markwayne Mullin @SecMullinDHS]

I’m not surprised you would say something like this, @GovSherrillNJ.

On June 8th, I personally granted you access to the facility as an act of good faith— despite you having exactly ZERO federal oversight authority. Of course, you’re still trying to turn Delaney Hall into a political football for the radical left.

You were told BEFORE you went in you would not have the ability to speak to detainees. This is a federal facility, Governor. You are NOT federally elected.

I suggest you and your health inspectors spend more time at your New Jersey state detention facilities. Delaney Hall has 2x more medical personnel per detainee than NJ state prison, and at least 2x as much square footage. Detainees are also 2x more likely to die in NJ state custody. ⬇️

[Byron Donalds @ByronDonalds]

To you, it's just a Cracker Barrel parking lot. To me, it's where I gave my life to Jesus Christ.

I was 21 years old. I was working at the Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee after some of the worst years of my life. I'd made mistakes. Real ones.

I grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, raised by a mom who worked hard and didn't accept excuses. But I made decisions that should have ended my story before it ever really started. By the grace of God, they didn't. But every day, I was carrying them.

One afternoon, a church group came into the restaurant, just back from a revival. I served them their meals like I served any other table. But something happened while I was serving them. I can't fully explain it to you. The Lord spoke to me. He said, “Stop running from Me.”

It knocked me back.

I went to find the table, and they were all gone. I could see through their windows that they were getting on their bus, and I knew deep down that if I let them drive away, I was going to keep running. So I went outside. The last woman, just as she was stepping onto the bus, turned to me and asked, “Are you okay?”

I told her, “No ma’am, I’m not okay.” I told her the Lord was telling me to stop running.

That whole bus emptied out, stood with me in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee, Florida, and prayed over me right there.

I gave my life to Christ that day. Right there.

I still get emotional about it. Because I know what I was before that moment, and I know what He's done since. He gave me a wife who shares my faith. He gave me three sons. He gave me a career, a community, a calling I never would have dared to ask for. He took a kid from Crown Heights who’d run out of chances and gave him a life that doesn't make sense apart from grace.

People ask me sometimes why I talk about it. Why I bring up the parking lot. Why I don't just keep that part private and let folks see the polished version.

I'll tell you why.

Because there's a young man out there right now — maybe in Tallahassee, maybe in Tampa, maybe in Miami, maybe in a small town in the Panhandle — who thinks his story is already over. Who thinks the mistakes he's made disqualify him from the life he could have had. Who thinks God doesn't want anything to do with somebody like him.

I'm here to tell him: that's a lie.

In life, you're not who you are at the lowest point. You're who you choose to become after.

The Lord met me in a Cracker Barrel parking lot. He'll meet you wherever you are.

You just have to stop running.

Hormuz, Houston, and the Quiet American Victory Many Refuse to Accept

The same crowd that told you Donald Trump could never win a primary, let alone a presidency, is back at it again. They insist the Iran war is “lost,” that there will be no deal, that America has somehow stumbled into strategic defeat. They are making the same mistake twice.

In reality, the United States has already forced a reckoning the foreign‑policy establishment spent decades avoiding. In this new era, the world finally sees Iran for what it is: a radical regime willing to hold a global artery hostage. And the world is drawing the obvious conclusion, that the twenty‑first‑century economy cannot depend on an oil lifeline controlled at gunpoint. Has no one noticed the tankers quietly diverting toward a different hemisphere, toward what is fast becoming the Gulf of America?

As the complaints grow louder that “we need a deal now,” it is worth asking who is doing the complaining. The impatience comes largely from the same voices that never foresaw a U.S. victory over Iran’s gambit in Hormuz, and cannot yet imagine the peace dividend that will follow. They missed the strategic re‑rating of Iran from difficult regional power to systemic energy risk. They missed the quiet migration of tankers toward the Gulf of America. Now they mistake a necessary interval of pressure and bargaining for failure, precisely because they cannot recognize that the fundamentals have already shifted in America’s favor.

To wit, any deal he strikes will be judged by the wrong standard if you judge it by the same people who thought the JCPOA was statesmanship. Their benchmark is the agreement that shipped Tehran pallets of cash and sanctions relief while allowing it to keep enriched uranium, ballistic missiles, and regional proxies intact—a deal that subsidized the very regime now firing drones into the Gulf and threatening tankers. That standard is not just misplaced; it is discredited.

Measured against that history, what President Trump is chasing is not utopia but correction. It will not turn the Islamic Republic into a Scandinavian social democracy. It will not abolish forever the temptations of coercion in Hormuz. But it can lock in hard, strategic gains.

The same critics who cry failure over Hormuz have nothing to say about the victory in Venezuela, where U.S. pressure and engagement helped unlock reserves and discipline a rogue petro‑state. They glide past the several wars Trump has stopped or frozen, because those don’t fit the script in which every Trump move is a prelude to Armageddon. They are equally silent about the quiet alignment with Beijing. China, hardly a natural Trump ally, has made it plain: Iran cannot have a bomb and cannot own the Strait. That matters. When the world’s largest energy importer and the world’s leading navy converge on the same two red lines, Tehran’s room for maneuver shrinks, and America’s long‑term position strengthens, whether the commentariat wants to admit it or not.

Atlanta 👇

[Secretary Sean Duffy @SecDuffy]

This is Margaret Swan, a great-grandmother stabbed to death 20 TIMES in a random attack in the middle of the day on Atlanta’s public transit. Her murder was the second horrific attack on MARTA in a week.

I want ANSWERS from Atlanta. The number of assaults, robberies, and rapes on MARTA’s trains is MORE THAN THREE TIMES the national average.


MARTA has 15 DAYS from today to provide:

- Security spending

- Safety plans for riders and workers

- Detailed action strategy to prevent crime and fare evasion

Margaret’s family DESERVES ACCOUNTABILITY. No one should be forced to fear for their safety on public transit.

Harley-Davidson once an iconic brand now just a festering cesspool of DEI.

[Robby Starbuck @robbystarbuck]

It’s time to expose Harley-Davidson… AGAIN! What I found reveals shocking stupidity. I now see @harleydavidson as hopelessly woke.

My previous videos exposing Harley resulted in a huge stock collapse and promises that they’d change, but… have they?

My investigation into their recent hires sent me down a rabbit hole that tells me they’ve learned NOTHING from our last go-around.

Their new CEO hire literally had DEI and woke policy deeply embedded in both of his most recent stops as CEO of Topgolf and Pizza Hut. That’s the guy you bring in to change things? Really???

This included Pizza Hut funding a program during his tenure, that he signed onto, where they taught teachers to indoctrinate students with racist garbage about so-called White Privilege. The document I lay out in this video shows how this program, which again… he signed onto, directed teachers to put transgender books in their classroom libraries and have discussions about preferred pronouns and “microaggressions” with kids in their class. It only gets worse from there.

Their new Chief Brand Officer, in particular, is a woke disgrace to the brand and riders. His name is Marcus Fischer (he/him) and let’s just say he’s not exactly a typical Harley rider. Oh that he/him reference? You’ll understand after watching. 💀

Hiring him AFTER you lose hundreds of millions due to wokeness is just 100% indefensible. He came from a marketing agency that pushed DEI in marketing. He was the CEO there! Pushing DEI and wokeness is literally one of the big things they did at his company. AND YOU HIRE HIM AFTER HARLEY GETS TORN TO SHREDS FOR WOKENESS?

It’s either incompetence or total contempt for your customer base at this point. When you see everything I lay out about him, there’s really no question about where things stand.

At this point, I don’t think Harley deserves another chance. I think it’s time to leave them and move on from a company that’s willing to be this blatantly disrespectful after pretending that they’d change.

And yes, I have MUCH more I’ll release in the coming weeks, but watch this and ask yourself if this resembles the people you’d imagine running a motorcycle company. Absolutely not. Just disgraceful.

And the new CEO never even bothered to call or reach out in private over the 10 months since Harley announced his hire. Seems like malpractice to me.

Share this, and feel free to clip and use it however you want. Riders need to know what Harley-Davidson has become. We can’t let them pretend to be something else.

Per usual, I’m not concerned with monetization on this video, so everyone feel free to use this video however you want to get the word out.

So far, you’ve helped me change corporate policy at Tractor Supply, John Deere, Polaris, Lowe’s, Ford, Coors, Stanley Black & Decker, Jack Daniel’s, DeWalt Tools, Craftsman, Caterpillar, Boeing, Toyota, Walmart, McDonald’s, Meta, Target, Accenture, Pepsi, Gatorade, Rockstar Energy, AT&T, Corona Beer, Modelo Beer, Pacifico Beer, IBM, Reynolds American, and all the companies they own! Crazy thing is, that’s not even the full list!!!

We’re a force to be reckoned with, and we won’t stop until wokeness is extinct.
