[Midwestern Patriot 🇺🇸 @MWpatriot01]

Verifiably false things almost every progressive believes.

1. Thousands of unarmed black men are killed by the police every year.

2. There is a transgender genocide happening right now in the United States.

3. Most black people don’t know how to get an ID.

4. Real Socialism hasn’t been tried.

5. The top 1% don’t pay tax or pay very little.

6. The progressive movement was responsible for ending segregation.

7. Most of the Democrats down south changed parties in the 60s or 70s.

8. Al Gore requested/wanted a full statewide recount in Florida in 2000.

9. Trump is a convicted rapist.

10. Trump called white supremacists fine people in Charlottesville in 2017.

[Hon. Vickie Paladino @VickieforNYC]

I've said this before and I'll say it again.

We are in a soft secession under Zohran. He considers New York an independent city-state with its own foreign policy, immigration policy, and economic policy. He does not recognize the authority of the federal government except to the extent he can extract money or political wins from it.

The intent is to use the resources and authority of New York City to wage war against the federal government and the rest of the country. The DSA is quite open about it. They're telling us what they plan to do, and Zohran is executing.

Colluding with the Iranians was just another means to that end. They will collude with any and all of our enemies, because the stated goal of the DSA is to dismantle the country from within. Again, they say all of this out loud. No inferences necessary here.

In this particular case, the meeting with the Iranians was sidelined by the State Department. But the intention is crystal clear, and just because a high-profile meeting was stopped doesn't mean there isn't back channel communication and cooperation happening between the DSA/Mamdani admin and the Iranians. Obviously there is. Meetings like this don't just materialize out of thin air, and ties between the DSA and Iranian-linked fronts like the People's Forum are too many to count.

Now what are we actually going to do about this?

We're WAY past the point that it can honestly be argued that the DSA isn't an insurgency determined to bring down the country. I really think it requires a military solution now; take this out of the corrupt civil court system and use the military to roll up the DSA and charge them as revolutionary insurgents. Do it while we still can and avoid inevitable future bloodshed.

[Marina Medvin 🇺🇸 @MarinaMedvin]

The threat of Mamdani is not that what he says is nonsense. After all, had it been nonsense, there would have been no need to be concerned. It is improtant to understand what he is and why he’s an existential threat.

First, he represents a new breed of immigrant that has made its way inside our borders. These folks come from across the world with the intent to take from Americans with a sense of entitlement. They are not here to assimilate and be grateful. They are here to destroy that which we understand to be the American way. This is a group that hates America and Americans, and has come here to change us into their foreign vision of greatness — or to simply destroy us; either is equally plausible.

Second, he speaks persuasively to a generation of under-educated (or even false-educated) American youths about the need to join his campaign to invert this country. He needs them and he knows just how to hook them. It is only with the help of these American locals that the Mamdaniesq type of immigrants can succeed at destroying Americanism. Mamdani is harvesting.

This is an existential crisis. That’s what Mamdani’s mindset poses to us — a threat to our very existence. And it’s not just one man or one culture or one religion; it’s a political ideology that threatens us.

The question is what do we do about it.

[Aesthetica @Anc_Aesthetics]

Our enemies are much more evil than people realize. There is no difference between Hasan Piker and a cave terrorist hiding in the hills of Afghanistan raping little boys. If anything the cave terrorist at least has the decency to not invade our shores under some false pretence of integration.

Too many Americans still operate under the long since passed model of passionate disagreement between fellow citizens of similar heritage and similar goals. That died as soon as Democrats decided to import the third world to our shores. From that point forward they stopped being fellow citizens and became domestic enemies trying to hand our home over to foreign invaders.

We were never meant to share a society with these people. And they were never meant to leave their backwards stone age societies. In any other timeline these people are shovelling shit on the streets of Mumbai. Or being enslaved by their own people. It was only by the grace of European societies that they were brought kicking and screaming into the modern world. Like an alien people, incompatible at the most basic level. If we were any other mammal we wouldn't even be categorized as the same species.

I can't wait until this retarded cold civil war is over and we don't have to pretend anymore that Hasan Piker's life is worth anything at all.

[Alec the Red @alec_thered]

Honestly this whole saga makes me think that Israel needs a jury system like the US. With a jury, trials have to happen quickly, they are regular people who have to take time off of work to sit and listen to a trial. With no jury, there is no time pressure. The judges obviously don’t care about their time, nor do the prosecutors. Only the defendant is inconvenienced (which may be the point here).

[Jacob L @JacobL1994_]

A lot of British patriots are really good people in a terrible situation, and I feel like it would be good for Jews both in Israel and the diaspora to offer moral support and encouragement.

It’s easy to get so lost in our constant tooth and nail struggle for existence that we lose sight of what we’ve accomplished as a people. Surviving 2,000 years of exile and persecution, resurrecting our ancient homeland, successfully defending it against all odds.

The Jewish people have created the most successful model for national revival and defense in human history, and we should share that model. The 21st century is one of cultural collapse, not only through mass immigration or war, but language extinction, nihilism, cratered birth rates, and hedonistic idol worship.

We’re actually in a very good position to survive the massive cultural extinction event humanity is facing. We should try to make sure our allies survive it too.

[John Carter @martianwyrdlord]

Remigrating all of Britain's foreigners, while necessary, will probably cause something of a labor crunch.

Meanwhile, executing everyone in authority implicated in facilitating the invasion, covering for the rape gangs etc, would (since this is ~everyone in authority) result in millions dead, which the squeamish might find excessive in most cases. But imprisoning all of them is a logistical impossibility.

Therefore, Britain's civil servants, police officers, quangocrats, traitor politicians, journalists, and so on should be reduced to perpetual serfdom within the service industry. They can deliver the food, work in the distribution centers, pick the apples, wipe the bums of the senior citizens, and perform all the rest of the shit work they insist migrants are required to do.

Furthermore, in recognition of their devotion to environmental Net Zero policies and Safety First, they can be barracked in highly energy efficient (poorly heated/no air conditioning) dormitories in which their every move is recorded, while being sustained on a steady diet of plant-based gruel (good for the heart AND the planet!) It goes without saying that, out of an abundance of concern for the comfort and safety of all residents, alcohol, tobacco, narcotics, and sexual contact of any kind will be strictly forbidden on dormitory grounds.

I believe this is a sensible, moderate solution that simultaneously addresses many of Britain's problems.

[Jacob L @JacobL1994_]

The fact that American Jewish institutions were aware the global south is a simmering cauldron of antisemitic biomass and kept encouraging importing it anyway is nothing short of treasonous.

[Connor Boyack 📚 @cboyack]

Europeans filming themselves losing it over American gas stations, restaurants, and stores aren't discovering "American culture."

They're experiencing the delicious fruits of a free(-er) market.

These sprawling Buc-ee's with endless pumps, spotless bathrooms, and walls of snacks didn't emerge by accident. Entrepreneurs spotted real problems (crappy highway stops) and solved them ruthlessly because profit rewards whoever serves customers best.

It's why Elon is now a trillionaire. Competition forces excellence.

Europeans are reacting to consumer sovereignty in action. In heavily regulated systems like the EU, entry is tougher, scaling gets punished, and variety shrinks. Innovation stagnates.

Places like Buc-ee's are emergent results of property rights, price signals, and voluntary exchange. No central planner decrees abundance. It flows from individuals free to build, risk, and keep the upside.

Protect those conditions, and everyday life keeps improving. Choke them with rules and bureaucratic decrees, and the wonder disappears into familiar scarcity.

These videos prove the point that free markets don't just work. They wow the world.

[Chief_Engineer @ChiefEngineerCE]

What would America look like if 55 million Visas were cancelled and all the illegals were deported?

Let's deep dive it.

If 55 million visas were cancelled overnight and all the illegals were deported, America would change in ways few could imagine.

At first it would look chaotic. Hospitals short on nurses. Tech firms unable to staff support teams. Crops left to rot because migrant labor vanished. For a few months, the headlines would scream collapse. But then something else would happen.

Wages would climb. Automation would soar. The price of an hour of work would be valuable. Trades and apprenticeships would surge. Competence and ownership would return to our society. Hospitals could bill people instead of government. Colleges that depended on foreign tuition would close, but community colleges would thrive again as Americans re-trained. Housing prices in major cities would fall for the first time in decades. Renters would finally have leverage. Families that were priced out could buy homes again.

The GDP might dip at first, but the money would start circulating locally. People who thought they’d never matter in the economy would suddenly be needed again. The country would remember how to build, grow, fix, and teach without importing labor. It wouldn’t be easy, but it would be ours.

[AP @Average_NY_Guy]

Here’s a question nobody likes asking about Nazi Germany:

How did countries like Austria, Poland, and France collapse so fast? These were established nations with armies, governments, borders, and millions of people. France alone was considered one of the strongest military powers in Europe.

Traditionally, we are taught that Hitler’s army was simply this unstoppable military machine that steamrolled Europe because it was overwhelmingly powerful. And yes, Germany was militarily strong. But that explanation alone has always felt incomplete, because historically even very strong armies usually do not conquer enormous amounts of territory that quickly unless something inside the targeted societies is already collapsing first.

Austria disappeared almost overnight. Poland fell within weeks. France collapsed in six weeks. History usually does not work that way unless large parts of the population no longer truly believe the fight is about their own survival.

The uncomfortable and dark reality is that many people did not initially think Hitler was coming for them.

Austria is probably the clearest example. The Anschluss was welcomed by huge parts of the population. German troops entered to cheering crowds, flowers, and celebrations. Many Austrians convinced themselves that joining Nazi Germany would mostly affect the Jews while improving life, or at least preserving it, for everyone else.

That mentality existed across Europe in different forms.

The illusion behind Hitler’s message was essentially: you can still be French, Polish, or Austrian. Live your life. Raise your children. The real problem is your Jewish neighbor.

And for millions of people, that was enough to weaken the will to resist.

A society only fights with total determination when people believe defeat means the destruction of their nation, identity, and future. But many Europeans convinced themselves the Jews were the primary target, so they accepted things they never would have accepted otherwise.

Some collaborated. Some stayed silent. Some rationalized. Some simply looked away.

The tragedy is that they were wrong anyway.

Austria lost its independence. France was humiliated and occupied. Poland was devastated. Cities were destroyed, sovereignty disappeared, millions died, and entire societies were dragged into catastrophe.

People often think evil can be managed as long as it is directed at somebody else first.

History shows otherwise.

This is why I’m done trying to convince Americans or Europeans about the dangers of extreme Islamism. In many mosques and Islamist circles, hatred toward America, Christianity, Western civilization, and Jews is preached openly and repeatedly. Yet many people in the West still process it the same way many Europeans processed antisemitism in the 1930s: “Yes, maybe they hate the Jews, but that doesn’t mean they are coming for us.”

That psychological separation is exactly the point.

As long as people believe somebody else is the primary target, they convince themselves they can safely ignore the ideology itself. They assume the hostility will remain contained to Jews, Israel, or some distant “other.”

But ideologies built around civilizational hatred do not stay neatly limited to one target forever.

And the end result, increasingly visible already across parts of Europe, is collapsing social trust, collapsing law and order, ethnic fragmentation, parallel societies, radicalization, and the steady erosion of the very national identities people assumed were untouchable.

At some point, societies make their own choices.
And eventually they live with the consequences of those choices.

You reap what you sow.

@DrunkRepub I feel the same way as an elder Millennial. Moved to NYC in 2012. I don’t recognize the city now. Leaving this year.

[BDW @BryanDeanWright]

Fmr CIA officer here.

Let me share how elections get stolen — and the role of intel agencies.

We all know that the CIA and NSA create and execute clandestine operations that are designed to go undetected. That ranges from recruiting human spies, tapping phone systems, and altering devices of all kinds.

Yes, that necessarily includes voting machines.

The CIA and NSA have teams to execute all of these operations and missions at the direction of a President, even those ops that are deemed impossible… like machines locked in rooms that are inside secure facilities, unhooked from the internet or whatever device that could tether them to the outside world.

Those tough intel operations require extensive planning, exquisite trade craft, supporting operations (HUMINT, SIGINT, MASINT), and a degree of luck.

For many years, everything that I’m saying was understood by both Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill.

Historic footage from Congressional hearings show both Ds and Rs saying that they were alarmed about voting systems with so-called “unhackable machines.” They knew then — correctly — that such a suggestion or claim was ridiculous. They were briefed by NSA and CIA teams on how they “hack the unhackable” every month without leaving a trace.

This is why Taiwan and others are resolute on conducting elections the old fashioned way: same day voting only, in person, IDs, paper ballots, a counting process that is open to the public to watch and monitor, and results announced that same night.

If Taiwan can do it with ~24M people, any US state can do it. Refusal to do so is an intentional choice to open your electoral systems to vulnerabilities.

That's what we’re now seeing across the United States, and primarily in Democrat-dominated locales. Including Los Angeles. Those politicians choose broken systems.

California’s ~30 day process to tally votes is obviously and intentionally vulnerable that a reasonable person understands that it allows for manipulation and assured electoral outcome by a dominant power (Democrats, in this case).

And like any good intel op, you do it such that there are no fingerprints left behind — whether that be with machines, mail-in ballots, harvested ballots, etc. If you own the ops environment, anything is possible.

Still, mistakes happen in any op. In the event of disclosure, you do what we often see Democrats and the media do: deny, smear, and make counter-accusations to preserve intentionally broken systems.

Folks, this is not about Spencer Pratt. This is about the future of what’s left of our Republic.

Evil, seditious forces have broken our electoral systems and gained great power using them. Mayor Bass is but one, using the machine that her Democrat Party has built to sustain her and Leftist power. It’s the modern, Golden State version of old Chicago, NJ, or Huey Long corruption.

They will deny it, obviously. Because admission means loss of power, money, and likely prison time. There’s no incentive for them to clean up what’s broken.

Bottom line: Mr. Pratt’s earnest desire to run a righteous race to fix his city faces long odds. He didn’t just run against Karen Bass. He ran against a corrupt machine.

But if nothing else, he has shown his fellow Angelinos and the nation that, once again, we have an existential problem in our electoral system with intentional vulnerabilities and electoral fraud that naturally flows from the brokenness.

Now it’s up to the rest of us to fix it.

There are solutions, none easy or polite. But we must do so — and by whatever means necessary — or the Republic falls to Communists and Cuba-trained agitators like Karen Bass.

Those are the stakes. Time is short.
