America’s elections are worse than third world…
Ben Stein Nixon speechwriter, Yale lawyer, the teacher from Ferris Bueller said this in 2019 and it still slaps:
“We have a society in which there are an awful lot of people who have no idea that Stalin, Hitler, Mao Tse-Tung all came to power promising the same kinds of things that Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is promising. And it led to mass murder, it led to dictatorship, it led to genocide. These promises are old promises and they invariably lead to bad things.”
Nailed it.
Free stuff is never free. Somebody always pays.
Let’s not let history repeat itself.
@BasedMikeLee I hate LEDs. On oncoming cars, they're blinding, studies have shown they can damage our eyes (something about the retinas), they don't last nearly as long as they claim, and I can't even LOOK at blue LED Christmas lights. Bring back quality USA- made incandescent bulbs!
One year ago today, Charlie Kirk left his last reply on X.
It's one I've never forgotten, because it was left to me on my post about Iryna Zarutska.
I never got to meet Charlie, he was k*lled the next day.
I thought I was radicalized by Iryna's de*th, but nothing could have prepared me for Charlie's.
What I saw from the Left was so horrifying, it shook me to my core and I've never gotten over it.
Even now, I am shaking with anger and disgust going through everything I remember from the day Charlie was k*lled.
I saw billboards of Charlie in my small town vandalized with red paint with truly vile things written on them.
I saw Leftists dancing on TikTok and PLEADING for more violence against other conservatives, including myself.
I will never forget what I saw.
Charlie was light and I saw true and utter darkness.
...but even in de*th Charlie brought light
A few weeks after his funeral, a young man and his wife and kids showed up at our church.
He caught me afterwards and said he followed me on X and came back to church, for Charlie.
A year later, we are now dear friends.
There are a million of these stories.
I remember my wife and I watching his videos together one night last year.
She looked at me and said, "I used to hate him, and I have no idea why..."
Because if you actually listened to Charlie instead of just listening to clips out of context, you realize he LOVED.
He didn't just listen and he didn't just debate.
You cannot fake love, no matter how hard you try.
It oozes from you and you cannot contain it and you cannot force it.
...and when I watch Charlie's videos, especially when he's debating someone he disagrees with, you can see he loves the person he's in front of and he wants them to see the light.
It's beautiful.
...but honestly, some days, when I remember what people said and did after he was k*lled and messages I get weekly from evil people telling me what they want to do to MY family...
I have a hard time finding any of of that love in myself at all. I'm just angry and filled with rage a lot.
God still has a lot of work to do in me.
But then I think about that young dad who walked into our church with his wife and kids.
I think about the friendship we now have.
I think about those children and mine growing up in church because their dad watched Charlie and decided it was time to come back.
I wish I could tell Charlie about them.
I wish he could meet all the people who are going to spend the rest of their lives changed because he was here.
I wish I’d gotten the chance to thank him.
But I still have the chance to live a life better than I did a year ago.
To study my Bible and to understand what I believe well enough to defend it.
...and something I don't do well enough:
To SPEAK UP when staying quiet would be easier, and to love people when I have every temptation to hate them.
I’m still angry. I’m still heartbroken.
But I heard you Charlie and I’m trying.
For Charlie ❤️
🚨 BOOM! All the hospices are gone. Not a single hospice remains. No more luxury vehicles and no more of your dollars funding their fraudulent scheme. They were all frauds.
In this one location alone we saved America $30 million+.
END IT ALL.
Deeply appropriate that Gloria Steinem died this week, the same week her movement reached its zenith as an American jury, save one heroic man, decided it's fine for a woman to kill her three children.
Never forget 9/11 🇺🇸🙏
Never forget who cheered.
On 9/12 Palestinians passed out candy celebrating the slaughter of 3,000 Americans.
America’s most horrified moment was their united celebration.
THIS SHOULD BE FRONT-PAGE NEWS.
The White House says the Trump administration has rescued more than 60,000 migrant children from sex trafficking and child labor.
Sixty. Thousand. Children.
Forget the political noise for a minute. If tens of thousands of kids were pulled out of exploitation and given a chance at a normal life, THAT deserves national attention.
Some victories are bigger than politics.
@liz_churchill10 I'm not hero-material like this awesome mom, but I swatted a spider that was crawling on my toddler's high chair - with my BARE HANDS. I was so very, very terrified of spiders, but "mom mode" kicked in when my kid was in danger.
I will never forget the day that I watched Democrats refuse to stand for Iryna Zarutska’s mother at the State of the Union.
It was so shockingly evil, that even while I watched it, I could barely believe it.
Honestly, I still can’t.
It was so insanely radicalizing.
