As Lincoln famously said, the philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of the government in the next. And we're seeing that right now.
"For Christians, we accept that we're flawed, we accept that we sin, and we accept that the only pathway for us to redemption is to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ."
"What's often missing from progressive ideology, from secular ideology or atheist ideology, is: how do you give a person a moral ought?"
Andrew Wilson (@paleochristcon) & @joerogan on Jesus compared to Muhammad, and what's missing from progressive ideology's moral framework.
There is overwhelming evidence that Islamist, Marxist, and communist indoctrination is taking place on our university campuses across the country. Yet no government body is willing to take the lead and confront it.
💥NEW: Stephen A. Smith: "I wanna emphasize: you're a Republican, you somebody that wanted our border closed because Biden left the border open — I ain't got no problem with you! As far as I'm concerned, the liberals and Democrats need to shut the h*ll up on that issue!"
"When Obama deported 3.1 million people, you ain't say anything! You had networks doing features on ICE! Suddenly, they the bad guys! They're the scourges of the earth!"
"Shut the h*ll up! I don't wanna hear from you!"
Democracy is a check on power. Immigration creates an override to that check, so long as immigrants are dependent on handouts from one party, and citizenship requirements for voting are effectively suspended.
It’s an attack on our consent, effectively the rāpe of the Republic.
CS Lewis on why “dumb blue collar people” usually do not fall for the same terrible ideas that the “educated elite class” so often does:
“Why, you fool, it’s the educated readers who can be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they’re all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem: we have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the highbrow weeklies, don’t need reconditioning. They’re all right already. They’ll believe anything.”
– CS Lewis, That Hideous Strength
… Or Romans 1: “Claiming to be wise, they became fools.”
Joshua 2: "Rahab the prostitute"
Matthew 1: "Rahab, the grandmother of the Messiah."
God has the redemptive capability to change labels and rewrite stories for his purposes and our better.
Tax the rich.
“New IRS data finds that the top 0.1% of taxpayers (roughly 154,000 returns) paid $440 billion in federal income taxes in their most recent year.
The bottom 80% paid $350 billion.
Meaning the top 0.1% paid more than the entire bottom 80% combined.” — h/t IRS, @Rothmus , @profstonge
You know what shook me when I was Muslim?
The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him.
She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world.
And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK.
To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3.
I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that?
Then I realized I was the wife.
I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless.
And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.”
He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.”
That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean.
He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty.
Islam told me to make myself worthy of God.
Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy.
The cross was Him naming the price.
Praise the Lord.
I simply cannot believe that I had NEVER learned this in a textbook or anywhere else. You're watching me hear it from @TimDavidBarton for the first time.
This seems like a pretty big deal.
Thank you President Trump and RFK for inspiring this change.
Over the past 30 years, companies replaced real ingredients with untested, artificial chemicals.
The tidal wave of companies replacing artificial ingredients and getting back to basics is extremely positive.
We should have spent more on green energy, say the media. No, we shouldn't have. The $2 trillion we spent did nothing to prevent the energy crisis and may even have caused it.
Everyone knows the names of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, the two protestors killed in Minneapolis while protesting ICE actions there.
How many know the names of Kayla Hamilton, Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin & Laken Riley, who now has an act named after her, which requires immigration officials to detain undocumented individuals who are charged with or arrested for crimes like shoplifting, theft, or burglary, to ensure mandatory detention without bond for these offenses and allows states to sue the federal government for failing to enforce these rules.
Too bad it didn't apply to a Venezuelan national and illegal immigrant named Jose Medina, who last weekend murdered Loyola University Chicago student Sheridan Gorman, age 18, for no apparent reason, ambushed her with a mask on and shot her in the back as she fled for her life. He was, in fact, apprehended by the U.S. Border Patrol on May 9, 2023 and released in the U.S. under the Biden administration. He was then arrested for shoplifting in Chicago, then released on June 19, 2023.
To my liberal friends marching with signs bemoaning the deaths of Good and Pretti: can you at least acknowledge that, you know, maybe a completely open border isn't a great idea?
If your house is full of real food, you’ll eat real food.
My simple rule for the grocery store:
✅ Protein first (eggs, grass-fed meat, wild fish)
✅ Colorful plants (leafy greens, berries, avocados)
✅ Healthy fats (olive oil, nuts, seeds)
✅ Mineral support (sea salt, electrolytes)
Everything else is optional.
Shop the perimeter. Read the labels.
Apparently, Republicans are not all that pressed about the estimated $9 b of Somali fraud; they want to pass another over $5 billion through.
Why would any Republican senator vote for more $ for a refugee program that the Somali’s ripped off $9B from?
