I drove from Mississippi to Wyoming for a conference. I went through Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Colorado on the way there. I went through Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, and then the east side of Arkansas on the way back. Several things occurred to me.
🚨 HOLY SMOKES!! Sec. Marco Rubio just delivered a mic drop moment in the Cabinet room
"What I'm talking about is not the people of Iran. The people that run this country are RADICAL, SHIA CLERICS. These are religious FANATICS. Look what they are doing now at their WEAKEST point!"
"This is the weakest Iran has ever been, and look at what they're doing. They're attacking embassies. They're attacking hotels. Imagine what these people would do if they had a nuclear weapon!"
"That is an unacceptable risk for the world. By the way, the president's not just doing a favor to the United States and to our people. This is for the world!"
"He defined very clearly on the first night of this operation what the goal was. We were going to destroy Iran's navy, and that is happening. We were going to, if it hasn't already happened, I'll let Pete speak to the specifics of it, we were going to destroy their missile launching capabilities."
"We're well on our way to achieving that goal. We were going to destroy the factory so they couldn't make more missiles and more drones. And that is moving forward."
"Every single objective the president clearly laid out on the first night of this operation is being effectuated."
"For 47 YEARS, Iran has been killing Americans and attacking Americans across this planet. And other presidents had an opportunity to DO something about it, and they all warned about how Iran was dangerous, but they refused to act."
"And THIS president's not someone that's going to refuse to act. He's not going to leave a danger like this in place. He's going to address it, and that is what he is doing."
You make us PROUD, MARCO 🇺🇸
I finally figured out what's wrong with "everything."
It's a system problem. The introduction of Trump into the system(s) broke almost everything, and in multiple ways.
The fake news created a White Supremacist hysteria, which led to the Fine People Hoax and the George Floyd Hoax, which led to massive DEI, which led to massive systemic incompetence in all of our systems at once.
Add wokeness and cancelation and we can't discuss the issue, much less fix it. That's a system problem. The corrective mechanism (free speech) has been removed.
On top of that, the Trump experience has made it clear all of our government systems are corrupt. They probably always were, but as long as we didn't notice, things limped along okay.
Now we notice.
Now we don't accept "the science" we know is corrupt. We don't accept the omnibus bills we know are corrupt. We don't accept the foreign wars that look sketchy. We don't accept elections we can't fully audit. We don't trust the news, for good reason. We don't trust our intel services to not be agents of one party. And we see the justice departments weaponized.
While all that happened Soros found a way to take control of all American systems via funding of non-government entities and integrating them into the American systems.
But at the head of the snake is the fake news and fake science. There is no correcting mechanism.
The X platform is the only counterforce, and that's why the crooks are trying to take it out, and Musk at the same time.
The first Marine officer in American history was a Quaker.
Samuel Nicholas was a well-connected Philadelphia innkeeper in his early thirties. He ran the Conestoga Wagon and fox-hunted with the city’s elite.
Nicholas was commissioned by John Hancock on November 28, 1775.
Quakers were strict pacifists. The Society of Friends had opposed all war since the 1600s. During the Revolution, over a thousand members who took up arms were formally disowned.
Nicholas knew what it would cost him, but he still did it.
He set up recruiting at Tun Tavern in Philadelphia. Men came in for a cold beer and left as Continental Marines, ready to fight the most powerful navy on earth.
Four months later, he led those recruits on the Corps’ first amphibious raid. They stormed ashore at Nassau in the Bahamas and seized British cannon and supplies for Washington’s army.
He later fought beside Washington himself at Trenton and Princeton.
In July of 1776, the Quakers disowned him for his service.
Today he rests in Quaker ground at Philadelphia’s Arch Street Meeting House. Marines still make the pilgrimage to the man their Corps calls its first.
The Democratic establishment deserves a slow clap here.
Really. Bravo.
They spent years building the perfect little political terrarium: NGOs, activist salaries, university grievance factories, donor cash, media protection, blue-city patronage, “equity” rackets, and taxpayer-funded do-gooder laundromats all humming along under the sacred banner of “Our Democracy.”
Then they looked at the radicals crawling around inside and said, “Surely these people will remain manageable.”
Absolutely brilliant, guys.
Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries now look like substitute teachers trying to take attendance during a prison riot. The donors are sweating through their custom suits. The consultants are pretending this is just a “messaging challenge.” The media is polishing the same old turd and calling it “youth energy.”
No, champ. This is not youth energy.
This is the bill.
You told them America was evil.
You told them capitalism was theft.
You told them police were the enemy.
You told them borders were immoral.
You told them every institution had to be “decolonized,” “reimagined,” or burned down and rebuilt by people with sociology degrees and untreated rage.
Now they believe you.
And worse, they want promotions.
That is the humiliation. The party bosses thought they were renting radicals by the hour. Turns out the radicals thought they were being trained to run the place.
Democrats built the hive, fed the hive, defended the hive, and called anyone who noticed a conspiracy theorist.
Now the hive has the keys.
Enjoy the buzzing.
