Getting stabbed for waving your own flag in your own country? But sure, we aren’t getting colonized.

[NN @NnPnemck]

I want you to remember Charlie Kirk getting his neck blown out in front of college kids. The entire world watched it happen. And I want you to remember how the left reacted. How they celebrated. How they justified it. How hundreds of thousands of people liked a post where Amanda Seyfried said he deserved it.

Then remember how enraged they were when President Trump moved his head and survived an assassination attempt on live television… something that would have thrown this country into chaos, if not outright civil war.

Remember how they built shrines and merch for Luigi Magionie after he murdered an innocent man in cold blood.

And Ashli Babbitt? They didn’t just defend the shooting, they turned her killer into a hero and have mocked her death for five straight years. Their hypocrisy is so loud and rancid it makes their obnoxious red whistles seem quiet.

This isn’t “politics.” This is a communist insurgency, carried out by ppl who openly worship the ideology of Karl Marx and want to eliminate everyone to the right of him. They don’t care about life or “innocent victims.” They care about power, and they will justify any amount of bloodshed to get it.

Accept where we are. It is not going to be pretty. Do not be manipulated by their narcissistic, emotional-blackmail warfare. The only way is through.

The #Browns are firing coach Kevin Stefanski, a two-time coach of the year, after two tough seasons in a row.

While Cleveland starts over with a new voice, Stefanski should be a top candidate in several places.

[Geoff Schwartz @geoffschwartz]

If you ask any player of his generation who the best of their sport was… they will say Barry Bonds without hesitation. The players don’t say “well he used steroids”. They just say Barry Bonds. There are PED users in the HoF. The commissioner who allowed the usage of PEDs is in the HoF.

Bonds should be in the HOF.

Suppose that once a week, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to £100.

If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.

The fifth would pay £1.

The sixth would pay £3.

The seventh would pay £7.

The eighth would pay £12.

The ninth would pay £18.

And the tenth man (the richest) would pay £59.　

So, that’s what they decided to do.

The ten men drank in the bar every week and seemed quite happy with the arrangement until, one day, the owner caused them a little problem.

“Since you are all such good customers,” he said, “I’m going to reduce the cost of your weekly beer by £20.”

Drinks for the ten men would now cost just £80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes.

So the first four men were unaffected.

They would still drink for free but what about the other six men?

The paying customers? How could they divide the £20 windfall so that everyone would get his fair share?

They realized that £20 divided by six is £3.33, but if they subtracted that from everybody’s share then not only would the first four men still be drinking for free but the fifth and sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.　

So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fairer to reduce each man’s bill by a higher percentage.

They decided to follow the principle of the tax system they had been using and he proceeded to work out the amounts he suggested that each should now pay.

And so, the fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (a 100% saving).

The sixth man now paid £2 instead of £3 (a 33% saving).

The seventh man now paid £5 instead of £7 (a 28% saving).

The eighth man now paid £9 instead of £12 (a 25% saving).

The ninth man now paid £14 instead of £18 (a 22% saving).

And the tenth man now paid £49 instead of £59 (a 16% saving).　

Each of the last six was better off than before with the first four continuing to drink for free.　

But, once outside the bar, the men began to compare their savings. “I only got £1 out of the £20 saving,” declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, “but he got £10!“　

“Yeah, that’s right,” exclaimed the fifth man. “I only saved a £1 too. It’s unfair that he got ten times more benefit than me!”　

“That’s true!” shouted the seventh man. “Why should he get £10 back, when I only got £2? The wealthy get all the breaks!”　

“Wait a minute,” yelled the first four men in unison, “we didn’t get anything at all. This new tax system exploits the poor!”

The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.　

The next week the tenth man didn’t show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had their beers without him.

But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important – they didn’t have enough money between all of them to pay for even half of the bill!　

And that’s how it works.

Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy and they just might not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas, where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.　

For those who understand, no explanation is needed.

For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.

Career passing yards:

Shedeur Sanders: 256 "absolute bum"

LaDainian Tomlinson: 143 "1st ballot HOFer"

O.J. Simpson: 110 "1st ballot HOFer"

Randy Moss: 106 "1st ballot HOFer"

Jerry Rice: 71 "1st ballot HOFer"

The media is so determined to see Shedeur fail it's hilarious.

The requirement that your team win the game for you to win an individual award is very bizarre.

It’s best defensive player of the week.
Not best defensive player whose offense also played well this week.

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

Yesterday after 5 ridiculous months of fighting the WH and the Speaker to get Congress to finally vote to release the Epstein files, a deal was made to stop the censure of Stacey Plaskett, a Democrat delegate from the territory of US Virgin Islands, which would have also kicked her off the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence that oversees US intelligence activities, for texting with Epstein during an Oversight Committee hearing in 2019.

Plaskett texted with Epstein as he advised her questions during the Michael Cohen hearing, knowing his convictions and record of rape and trafficking girls and women. This was the reason for last night’s censure resolution vote.

What was the deal that was made?

3 Republicans crossed the aisle and voted with Democrats to stop the Plaskett censure resolution in a swap so that Democrats would not bring up the Cory Mills (R) censure resolution for alleged physical assaults and threatening to release pornography on an ex-girlfriend and ethics violations and questionable military record.

You, the American people, should be outraged by this against both parties.

And you should be asking many questions.

For example, why does Plaskett who is a non voting delegate from a U.S. territory serve on the House Intelligence Committee, Ways and Means, and Budget Committee? Those are very powerful influential committees and she can’t even vote on the House floor.

And Cory Mills serves on the House Armed Services Committee, Foreign Affairs, and subcommittees on Intelligence.

So why did both sides work together to stop both Plaskett and Mills censure resolutions last night in order to protect both Plaskett and Mills?

Members of Congress like me never ever receive such protection and never will.

Instead of working to pass legislation that supports policies you voted for, passing our appropriation bills, and solving real crisis issues like healthcare, Congress is trapped in the quicksand of the Swamp with no intention of getting out.

There's a broadly applicable lesson here, but most Americans aren't ready for that conversation.

[Freedomain - with Stefan Molyneux, MA @StefanMolyneux]

Imagine if this guy did not have his ring camera footage proving that this evil woman opened his closed front door, went into his house, filmed him half-naked and uploaded the video to the Internet - then claimed that he sexually assaulted her.

This is a watershed moment, I’m telling you.

Absolute proof that women can totally fabricate sexual assault allegations.

[tree @treeonchain]

Suddenly, you're 27.

You make your coffee, rush to work, come home around 7, and you're too tired to do anything except eat, scroll on your phone, and pass out.

Then you wake up, and do it all again.

And when Friday comes, maybe you go out, or maybe you're just too tired. Then, out of nowhere, it hits you.

How did everything pass by so quickly?

You don't even feel 27.

You still feel like that 17 year old kid who thought they had all the time in the world.

But somehow, 10 years just disappeared. And you start missing the past. The feeling of being young, excited, and clueless.

But then you realize, one day, you'll miss this, too.

Being 25, being confused, being tired, but still trying.

So maybe the trick is to slow down a bit and actually live this chapter before it also becomes just another memory.

The point is no matter what age you are, you’ll miss these days. Life gets busy sometimes and it’s always a good time to stop and smell the roses.

Actually, obligatory:

Two economists are walking in a forest when they come across a pile of shit.

The first economist says to the other “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.”

The second economist takes the $100 and eats the pile of shit.

They continue walking until they come across a second pile of shit.

The second economist turns to the first and says “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.”

The first economist takes the $100 and eats a pile of shit.

Walking a little more, the first economist looks at the second and says, "You know, I gave you $100 to eat shit, then you gave me back the same $100 to eat shit. I can't help but feel like we both just ate shit for nothing."

"That's not true", responded the second economist. "We increased the GDP by $200!"

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 BREAKING: In an outrageous move, Senate Democrats *REJECT* paying essential federal employees during the government shutdown. Needed 60 votes.

The vote comes after Democrats admitted "suffering" is their "leverage."

Chuck Schumer is vile. They shut the government down for illegals, then refused to pay essential American workers.

The people see what's happening. Chuck and Hakeem WON'T shake this off. GOP CANNOT CAVE to the left on this!
