It’s not complicated. It doesn’t require postliberalism.
It’s what Trump has already done and is currently working on doing.
If all the subversive POS would stop running propaganda campaigns on social media all day everyday…. We could get there.
You repeatedly claimed that the West needs to be kind and empathetic, and allow entry to millions of people who hate Christianity and Judaism. Now you are alarmed? The chutzpah is astounding.
What’s happening in Spain is what is coming for America if Democrats regain power. Complain about Republicans all you want, they’re the only avenue to secure borders. We need better Republicans, but electing Democrats is a death sentence.
The people hired to explain the world somehow became the least capable people in the room.
Journalists who cannot explain how prices work lecture businessmen about economics. Teachers who cannot define critical thinking assign essays on “misinformation.” NGO activists who have never built a company, shipped a product, met a payroll, or created anything more complicated than a hashtag explain why the people who actually build civilization are the problem.
Quite a system.
The modern world runs on supply chains, capital markets, software, energy grids, logistics, engineering, risk, incentives, and millions of voluntary decisions coordinating without some blue-check hall monitor issuing commands.
The explainer class looks at all that and produces its grand analysis:
Rich guy bad.
Government good.
More regulation.
Problem solved.
Then, when reality refuses to cooperate with the coloring-book version they taught the public, they do not reconsider. They demand more authority, more censorship, more funding, and fewer questions.
Because clearly the issue is not that they are wrong.
The issue is that you are still allowed to notice.
These people were supposed to be the bridge between complexity and the public. Instead, they became a tollbooth staffed by idiots, charging everyone admission to a distorted version of reality.
They cannot build the machine. They cannot explain the machine. They do not understand why the machine works.
But hand them a microphone and suddenly they are morally qualified to dismantle it.
The media did not merely become biased.
It became incompetent enough to mistake its own confusion for expertise ... and arrogant enough to demand that the rest of us call it truth.

90% of the soldiers on the first boats to hit the beach didn't live to see the end of the day. Look at those faces. Some of them never made it to 18.
Never forget that they paid the ultimate price for our freedom. We live our lives the way we do because of them.
Hello Senator Thune,
Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation."
You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process.
Here's how we know:
Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you.
Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work:
Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill.
Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results.
Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess.
Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate.
You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months.
Now let's talk donors:
• Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user
• Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify
• Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration
• Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants
Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail."
Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable.
We see the loop.
You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed.
What we want:
1. Force a real talking filibuster.
2. Stop hiding behind process.
3. Pass the SAVE America Act.
YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents.
You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time.
Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.
Let me get this straight. There's SNAP fraud, EBT fraud, Medicaid and Medicare fraud, home healthcare fraud, daycare fraud, medical transportation fraud, and hospice fraud, but definitely, absolutely no election fraud?
@LeaderJohnThune Enact the talking filibuster and pass the SAVE Act. The institution you are putting above the American people will be dismantled the moment Democrats take power. That will be your legacy.
@almostjingo@jeannebodine You should treat the words “researchers” “experts” and “studies” with the same skepticism that you treat emails from Nigeria.
@christopherrufo 30 year mortgages are refinanced all the time. Why would a 50 year be worse than 30 or a 5 or 7 year ARM where your ability to refinance is on a short timetable? I have refinanced a 30 year many times to take advantage of lower rates.
California regulators are on notice: if you pass illegal bans or penalties on gas appliances, we’ll see you in court. The law is clear—feds set energy policy, not unelected climate bureaucrats. Read the letter I sent the @SouthCoastAQMD:
You are not entitled to our money. You and Bill have $137 billion net worth. If you want to make commercial for-profit vaccines, forced on “customers” practically at gunpoint, while lying and censoring side effects, you can damn well do that “philanthropy” with your own money.
