They said that evil influencers poisoned the minds of young right wingers, and this explains the midterms. Well, if it were true, we'd see that here. But turnout is higher than 2024!
As the data shows, the GOP lost the marginal parts of 2024 coalition, mostly due to high prices.
On the morning of November 11, 1918, the armistice was already signed. Everyone on the Western Front knew the war would end at 11:00 AM. Men kept dying anyway.
At 10:59, one minute before the guns went quiet, Private Henry Gunther of Baltimore charged a German machine gun position. The Germans tried to wave him off. He kept going, and they shot him. He's generally remembered as the last American killed in the First World War.
That day became Armistice Day. In 1954 it became Veterans Day.
Since 1775, more than a million Americans have died in uniform during wartime.
In the Revolution, more Americans died rotting on British prison ships in New York Harbor than were killed in battle.
The Civil War killed somewhere between 620,000 and 750,000 men, nearly as many as every other American war combined.
World War I took over 116,000 Americans in just 19 months, many of them killed by the flu before they ever saw a trench.
World War II took more than 405,000. Five Sullivan brothers from Waterloo, Iowa went down together on the USS Juneau in 1942. Their parents got the news in one visit.
Nearly 37,000 died in Korea. Over 58,000 names are on the wall in Vietnam. Thousands more came home from Iraq and Afghanistan under a flag.
More than 80,000 Americans are still listed as missing from our wars. Their families never got to bury them.
On November 11, 1921, the Unknown Soldier was laid to rest at Arlington. He stands for all of them.
They came from farms, factories, and small towns. Most were young. Most of them never got a say in where they were sent. They went anyway.
It's sad looking at the state of this country and knowing how many people around us couldn't care less about what they gave. But we remember. Every one of those Patriots. And we'll carry it forward for them.
Thank you to all of you who have served, you are the best of us. May God Bless you 🇺🇸
Happy Veterans Day! Thank them,make sure they’re okay,and do that every day. My father served in the US Navy and he suffers from Tinnitus due to it and it pains him and too many veterans every day.

When I make the following point, I want it to be clear that I have no issue with Marco Rubio. I actually quite like the work he’s done of late. That being said, he will not significantly improve our turnout with Hispanics if he is the nominee. Pandering never works. What DOES work is appealing to the issues people care about most. Economic populism, putting American workers and citizens first, secure borders, mass deportations, conserving the environment, etc. is how you win!
You guys literally endorsed him for President in 2024 well after his views on immigration and American identity became known (thanks to me btw). I know you probably don’t know who Bobby Jindal is since you literally joined in 2026 but we’ve seen Indian guys try their hand at national R politics only to disappear after failure. Vivek failed once (despite your best efforts) and so I acknowledged that in a contest between him and a Democrat for governor or Ohio, yeah he’s better and won’t be able to scale it to another national race anyway. You are welcome
So let me get this straight.
You got assaulted at a TPUSA event and posted about it a few weeks ago. The post didn’t initially get a ton of attention.
Less than a week later, your very next post was publicly asking James Fishback to come to your university.
Yesterday, your story was blown up by a self-described “Democratic counter to TPUSA.”
Now that you’re getting attention for it, right-wing edgelording is suddenly a problem that you need to expose?
I’m failing to see an ideological core here. If you make your story into a grift for attention you’re going to discredit yourself very quickly.
In 2016, our trade deficit was nearly 700 billion dollars when adjusted (500 billion dollars at the time). Our trade deficit in 2026 is 100 billion dollars. Thank you President Trump for putting Americans first!
