Billy the Local GOAT

[Sovey @SoveyX]

I’m not sure if I’m MAGA or not.

I only get called MAGA by people on the Internet who hate me.

I don’t have a hat.
It’s not in my bio.
I don’t consider myself a republican.

I’ve had the same values since I was six years old.
I wasn’t born in this country.
Trump wasn’t president when I learned what I believe.
My values didn’t change because social media told me to change.

Here’s what I believe in:

God exists and He is not optional.
Christian is the first word in my bio for a reason. He means everything and it is who I am.
Life begins at conception, abortion is not empowerment.
Strong borders are not hateful, they are basic governance.
Merit matters, outcomes are earned.
Work hard, don’t whine, don’t ask the government to rescue you.
Crime should be punished, not reframed as a lived experience.
Parents raise children, not schools, activists, or bureaucrats.
Men are men, women are women, reality is not negotiable.
America is exceptional, worth defending, and nothing to apologize for. Be proud.

Free speech exists for speech you don’t like.
Law enforcement is necessary, not oppressive.
Capitalism works, and everyone complaining is still using it.
Hard work builds character, dependency destroys it.
National sovereignty matters more than global feelings.
Personal responsibility beats victimhood every time.

If that makes me MAGA, fine.
If it doesn’t, also fine.

I didn’t borrow these beliefs from a movement.
I learned them from my parents.

I love them and trust them more than I will ever trust a political party.

They actually care about my well-being.

I don’t know what that makes me and frankly, I don’t care.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Contractors behind the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool repairs are breaking their silence.

Eddie Wood (Atlantic Industrial Coatings) and Marcus Logan (Mid Atlantic Industrial Coating) set the record straight on the misleading media attacks.

• It was a sole-source contract — the government specifically chose polyurea and Rhino Linings.
• Not over budget: Still the original $13.1M proposal. Extra ~$1M for added granite work brought it under $15M total.
• 20% buffer is standard for this industry.
• They’ve never worked for Trump, his companies, or anyone connected.

This isn’t a swimming pool — it’s an industrial containment system built for a perfect mirror reflection.

Media spin/lies exposed.

Barbara Walters writes:
Unfortunately, many have forgotten and still countless others have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed not only the idea of our country, but specific men who served and sacrificed during the Vietnam War.
The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat. In 1968, the former Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a POW in Ho LoPrison, the "Hanoi Hilton."
Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American "peace activist" the "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.
He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and was dragged away. During the subsequent beating, he fell forward onto the camp commandant 's feet, which sent that officer berserk.
In 1978, the Air Force Colonel still suffered from double vision (which permanently ended his flying career) from the Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden baton.
From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan was in the 47FW/DO (F-4E's). He spent 6 years in the "Hanoi Hilton". . . The first three of which his family only knew he was "missing in action." His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too, got the cleaned-up, fed and clothed routine in preparation for a "peace delegation" visit.
They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world that they were alive and still survived. Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his Social Security Number on it, in the palm of his hand. When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking little encouraging snippets like: "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and "Are you grateful for the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?" Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper.
She took them all without missing a beat. . . At the end of the line and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs, she turned to the officer in charge and handed him all the little pieces of paper...
Three men died from the subsequent beatings. Colonel Carrigan was almost number four but he survived, which is the only reason we know of her actions that day.
I was a civilian economic development adviser in Vietnam, and was captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Vietnam in 1968, and held prisoner for over 5 years.
I spent 27 months in solitary confinement; one year in a cage in Cambodia; and one year in a 'black box' in Hanoi. My North Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Banme Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian border. At one time, I weighed only about 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs.)
We were Jane Fonda's "war criminals."
When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political officer if I would be willing to meet with her. I said yes, for I wanted to tell her about the real treatment we POWs received. . . and how different it was from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by her as "humane and lenient."
Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky floor on my knees, with my arms outstretched with a large steel weight placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane.
I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda soon after I was released. I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on TV. She never did answer me.
These first-hand experiences do not exemplify someone who should be honored as part of "100 Years of Great Women." Lest we forget. . . "100 Years of Great Women" should never include a traitor whose hands are covered with the blood of so many patriots.
There are few things I have strong visceral reactions to, but Hanoi Jane's participation in blatant treason, is one of them. Please take the time to forward to as many people as you possibly can. It will eventually end up on her computer, and she needs to know that we will never forget. See less

Fernando Mendoza stayed home with his mom to celebrate being selected first overall in the NFL Draft instead of attending the in-person celebration

She has multiple sclerosis, causing her to be in a wheelchair.

This is what matters. Not trophies—family.

Principal Kirk Moore, who tackled the school shooter, walked into prom a few days later to a huge celebration from the students and was named prom king.

Great players bring the right approach every day no matter what. Wins are just a byproduct of the foundation you build.

As a coach my job is to shoot them straight. If you tolerate a day off in prep you teach them that excellence is optional. It never is.

As the SOS becomes cleaner and cleaner, more of the data makes sense. Some unique entrants even with more difficult weeks; however, as the data is reviewed/updated with every new at-bat, earlier games/instances carry now more/less weight.
