I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Your old phone in that drawer is a free 24/7 security camera.
not e-waste. not a paperweight.
Cracked screen, 3 years old, doesn't matter.
Took me 2 minutes to set up and it works better than ring.
Here's exactly how (no subscription, no hardware):
Made it to Pierogies Plus!
Last hot food is served at 5:30pm and I made it with an hour to spare!
Was so hungry I forgot to take a picture before I started eating. 🫤
Got the #1, 4 pierogies, haluski, and a stuffed cabbage.
So good! 🤌
The FL Senate passed a medical freedom bill that did that, but the FL House refused to take it up. So it never made it to my desk. I was ready to sign it.
It’s simple: do the math and put people first, lower taxes, less government, and more money in your pocket.
While other states take more, Florida leads, standing up for families, stepping in when it matters, and getting the job done. With your support, I can continue to get the job done as your next Governor.
Unless you live in Florida and know what a great governor we have you can't understand the panic that is setting in the closer to election day. We have had the best and the bar is set high. Jay Collins 🇺���� is the only candidate that comes close.
Floridians deserve leaders who put the public first, not their own financial gain, as @ByronDonalds has done. It’s time for real transparency, accountability, and clear rules that restore trust in those elected to serve.

POLITICAL VIOLENCE: A crowd assembled outside Democrat donor Cole Allen’s home in Torance, CA. Allen boarded an Amtrak train headed to DC shortly after Rep Hakeem Jeffries called for maximum warfare against the president and his administration.
No British government ever imagined an American president might finally tell the truth about the “special relationship.”
Until now.
Spare me the pearl-clutching obituary from The Economist, that decaying salon of transatlantic nostalgia where the ghost of Churchill is still being pimped out like a rent-boy for Davos subscriptions.
Your precious bunting of flags in the bin isn’t some tragic metaphor for Trump’s “betrayal.”
It’s the autopsy photo of a one-way parasitic bargain that America has carried on its back like a drunk uncle for eighty goddamn years.
And the drunk finally woke up, looked around, and said: Fuck this.
This isn’t “turning his back.”
This is a sovereign nation refusing to keep subsidizing a continent of strategic eunuchs who have spent decades castrating their own militaries, hollowing out their industrial bases, and importing the very pathologies that make them security liabilities rather than allies.
You want the special relationship?
Earn it. Reciprocate it. Stop treating the United States like an ATM with nuclear weapons.
Geopolitically and militarily, the numbers don’t lie and they never have.
The United States still shoulders roughly sixty percent of total NATO defense spending...$845 billion out of a collective $1.4 trillion last year.
Most of your European “partners” couldn’t hit the 2% GDP target even after Russia parked tanks on Ukraine’s border and started lobbing missiles at civilian infrastructure.
Britain under Starmer talks a big game about “global Britain” while quietly slashing capability, courting CCP-linked cash, and letting its own streets burn under the weight of demographic transformation and speech codes that make the old East German Stasi look libertarian.
You lecture us about values while your own government criminalizes tweets and turns Rotherham into a cautionary tale the media still refuses to fully autopsy.
Historically, the ledger is even more damning. We bled for you in 1917 and 1941 when your empires were on the ropes.
We bankrolled your reconstruction, anchored your defense for the entire Cold War, and let you punch above your weight on the world stage because sentimental Anglosphere nostalgia still meant something.
In return? Suez 1956, where you expected us to back imperial nostalgia while we were trying to contain Soviet expansion.
Vietnam, where you sat it out. Iraq, where you half-assed it and then spent the next twenty years sneering at us in your broadsheets. And every single time an American president dared put America First, your commentariat wailed like Victorian widows about the death of the alliance...as if the alliance was ever meant to be a suicide pact.
You’ve internalized a victimhood narrative so profound it borders on the clinical...projecting your own national decline, your own loss of agency, your own self-inflicted castration onto the one country that still possesses the will to act like a great power.
Trump doesn’t “deprioritize” the relationship; he simply refuses to indulge the delusion any longer.
He sees what you refuse to admit:
the United Kingdom of 2026 is no longer the reliable offshore balancer of 1945.
It’s a mid-tier European power wrestling with internal entropy, elite disconnect, and a demographic trajectory that makes long-term strategic partnership… let’s just say, complicated.
We are sick of it. Sick of the free ride. Sick of the lectures from people whose capitals are turning into no-go zones while their defense ministers beg Washington for more F-35s and more carrier groups to patrol waters they can no longer secure themselves.
Sick of the pomp, the pageantry, the royal visits, and the hand-wringing editorials that treat American self-interest as some kind of moral failing.
The special relationship isn’t dead. It’s being stress-tested by reality.
And reality, Mr. Economist, is a vicious bitch with a ledger in one hand and a mirror in the other.
Look into it.

Does anyone else find it odd that $200 billion is spent on cancer research every single year and the only thing to show for it is a 75% increase in cancer deaths since the 1990s?
The Iranian forever war: while many “experts” worry about President Trump getting us into a “forever war” with Iran the reality is that we have been in a forever war with Iran since 1979 when they seized the American Embassy, held 66 diplomats hostage for 444 days and began chanting “Death to America” while describing the United States as “the Great Satan.” Matt Turpin on substack outlined the history of the Iranian war against the United States: “Over the past five decades, the Islamic Republic of Iran and its proxies killed over a thousand Americans.
“There was the truck bombing of the U.S. Marine Barracks in Beirut and killing of 241 American service members on October 23, 1983, the deadliest day for the USMC since Iwo Jima. Those Marines were there as a part of a multinational force that was meant to provide peace and stability during the Lebanese Civil War as Iran sought to use Hezbollah to destabilize the country and the rest of the Arab world, spread its Islamic Revolution, and attack Israel.
In March 1984, Iran’s Hezbollah kidnapped, tortured and killed CIA Station Chief William Buckley on his way to work in Beirut and six months later conducted a car bomb attack killing 23, including two U.S. service members, at the U.S. Embassy annex in Beirut.
“In December 1984, they hijacked a Kuwait Airlines flight to Pakistan and tortured and killed two U.S. government officials on the flight.
In June 1985, they hijacked a TWA flight from Athens to Rome, found a U.S. Navy diver on the flight, tortured him, then shot him in the back of the head and tossed his body on the tarmac in Beirut.
In December 1989, they killed U.S. Marine Colonel William Higgins after torturing him for a year. He had been serving on the United Nations peacekeeping force in Lebanon, a mission authorized by the United Nations Security Council.
In April 1995, Iran used their other proxy group, Islamic Jihad to conduct a car bomb attack in the Gaza Strip which killed eight, including one American who was likely the target.
In 1995 and 1996, Iran conducted a number of attacks in Israel targeting Americans and Israelis resulting in seven Americans killed and more than 100 wounded.
Iran used Hezbollah again in 1995 and 1996 to conduct attacks against American service members in Saudi Arabia, killing six in a car bombing in November 1995 and another 19 at Khobar Towers in June 1996.
In August 1998, Iran and Hezbollah assisted Al-Qaeda suicide bombers in simultaneously attacking two U.S. Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing 224 people including 12 Americans.
Between 2001 and 2003, Iran and its proxies killed another 13 Americans in Israel.
During the Iraq War, Iran was linked to killing at least 600 U.S. troops. This was roughly one in every six fatalities in Iraq.
One attack was January 2007, when a dozen men from Iran’s IRGC Quds Force disguised themselves as U.S. soldiers and entered the Provincial Joint Coordination Center in Karbala and killed five U.S. soldiers and wounded three others.”
Let’s be clear President Trump is trying to END the 47 year long forever war and forced Iran into peaceful policies. Those who favor being soft on the religious dictatorship are in fact perpetuating the forever war not ending it.
