Future POTUS right here…

@realBrandonGill: "It's only appropriate that we kick this off with a land acknowledgment. I'd like to acknowledge that we stand here today in the great state of Texas and the United States of America-- the ancestral homeland of great American patriots, pioneers and explorers... who bled and died to build the greatest civilization known to man."

@jk_rowling Creasy responded to critics by stating, "Before you decide you know what these women think, have the respect to talk to them in person." Would she say the same about a group of Christian women and their beliefs....?

They hanged him at dawn.💔

The Islamic Republic executed rapper Erfan Mirzaei on Sunday, September 6, at the morning adhan, in Dastgerd Prison in Isfahan. No warning. No last call to his family. The rope and the silence.

He was a young rapper. His crime was standing against a regime that kills to survive. He sang of freedom and hope in a country where a song can cost your life. Those who knew him remember a young man full of fire, art, and big dreams. The regime stole all of it in a single dawn, while the world slept.

He was arrested during the January protests and executed in secret, while the Islamic Republic continues slaughtering January protesters in Iran's prisons under a total news blackout.

His funeral is today, Say his name. Do not let the gallows have the last word.

Katherine Birbalsingh says it straight: schools teach slavery, but they don’t hear that Britain banned it, enforced it at sea, and paid a fortune to end it.

Katherine Birbalsingh is right. That gap isn’t education it’s a political lesson.

The Arab slave trade barely gets a look in.

That’s not an accident. It’s a story built around guilt, not history.

She’s talking common sense and the truth.

Every school needs a teacher like this. This woke version of the past is damaging children and every classroom needs this kind of honesty and every classroom needs a teacher like Katherine.

@c_k_lynch the one in the middle will contrast well with the wood tones, definitely NOT the bottom one, you'll get tired of that as quick as people did with Pioneer Woman kitchen design

If you want evidence that capitalism is a force for good, just visit a grocery store.

[Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent @SecScottBessent]

In her latest sciolistic letter to me, @SenWarren made it clear that she knows even less about foreign exchange markets than she does about banking.

What is equally shocking, but not surprising: not a single member of the media mob has a rudimentary-enough level of financial market literacy to spot her remedial error.

To reiterate: under @POTUS, the United States delivers for America’s trusted partners.

For a fuller explanation, I recommend Senator Warren take any entry level course in international finance for her and her staff, or I can personally give her a tutorial on Foreign Exchange for Dummies. Although I am not holding my breath, I hope her next letter will demonstrate that she has learned the difference between a currency purchase and a swap or a loan.

"Harvard and Yale—two of the world’s most prestigious institutions—actively discriminate against Asians. Once controlling for variables, Thomas Espenshade and Alexandria Radford showed Asians face odds multiple times higher than other groups to be accepted to elite colleges. And Asians don’t have sports scholarships to rely on either according to the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The rot is spreading into the public education system. Lowell High School in San Francisco, one of the country’s most prestigious schools with 59 percent Asians is removing the blind, test-based meritocratic admissions process. A similar attempt is underway at Stuyvesant High School in New York (73 percent Asian). And also at Boston Public Schools which would cut the Asian offers by a quarter. Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Virgina (72 percent Asian) is changing its admission policies to be more “holistic” from a blind test. In every case the impact falls disproportionately on Asians. What each of these schools is saying is clear. Ability matters less than race. Ethnic diversity is more important than individual excellence. Nothing good lies down this narrow path of thinking."

“I am one of the most vocal critics of IVF because it victimizes children.”

“It’s a eugenics project.”

Despite declining birth rates, Katy Faust is a fierce critic of IVF.

Here’s why:

“First, it violates their right to life.”

“Only 2-3% of lab-made babies are going to be born alive.”

“90% are gonna be frozen or discarded or donated to research and never transferred to the womb.”

“We mass produce embryos in the world of big fertility so that we can screen out the undesirables.”

“The second reason why IVF is a problem is because up to two-thirds of the children created through IVF will also lose their mother or father in the process.”

“If you are one of the 2-3% that make it through the eugenics gauntlet alive … you are going to lose your mother or father because somebody used an egg or sperm donor in the process.”

“And then the purchasing of sperm or egg or the renting of a womb violates children’s right to be born free and not bought and sold.”

“When I was working at the adoption agency, the bright line between adoption and baby buying is that money never went from the adoptive parents to the birth parents.”

“The purpose of spending money in adoption is vetting, not paying somebody to hand over their child.”

“But in the world of big fertility, that’s what you’re doing.”

You have almost certainly seen this viral chart before but it's so important that you must take the time to digest what it says: if you use AI for your homework, you will finish it faster and receive a higher grade on your homework. You will however get crushed on the exam (which is AI free). In education use AI with caution!

“Numberless women of every faith sleep with their college boyfriends. Most of us don’t call them ‘unmarriageable sluts.’ Most of us call these women ‘mom.’”

"I teach mathematics at UC Berkeley. Three days a week, I stand in front of lecture halls with 500 to 1,400 students. By the second week of the semester, I already know who is in trouble. Some students are five to eight years behind in mathematics. Office hours that should be spent discussing integrals instead become lessons on fractions and basic algebra you would expect students to learn in middle school." https://t.co/O7kHijYCKB

Today in history.

Our civilization should not say “never forget” to the Holocaust or 10/7, without often saying the same for these and other Christian martyrs.

Many Christians today still face this danger from the “religion of peace”.
