Why is news coverage of the algae in the reflecting pool in Washington DC more important than the lives of dozens of Christian human beings being slaughtered by Islamic terrorists in Nigeria?

🚨 NEW: Fox’s Tyrus CALLS OUT Democratic socialism: “The American dream is hard but it’s obtainable and you have to do the work. You have to roll your sleeves up and sacrifice.” But with socialism “it’s ‘why do I have to do that when I can just take it from them?’”

“There’s this illusion that quality of life is more important than work ethic. ‘I want it now’ and one group’s telling them ‘You don’t have to be educated, all you have to do is blame everything on somebody else and they’ll support you.’ It’s ‘Why should I work when you’re saying I don’t have to!’ There are more people willing to take a free lunch than go out and build the sandwich,” adds @PlanetTyrus.

We love watching Freddy’s journey on his road trip across the U.S.

There is no better way to learn about America’s story than from the open road, in our towns, and with the people! 🇺🇸

To Love America is to See America. Can’t wait to see where you are headed next @FreddyLA7

Indeed. The first notion I had this might be true was when President Trump said, in his 2019 SOTU speech, "America will never be a socialist country." When he said that, the camera cut to the face of AOC and a couple of Dems in the audience. They were livid. It was at that moment I realized the threat was very real and already on top of us.

Communism through (my) ages:
1) When I was 15, a teacher told me "It isn't as bad as they say, and makes a lot of sense."
2) At about 19, college friends, "Socialism isn't communism."
3) At 20, on meeting my grandfather-in-law, "They are evil. We escaped in 1949."
4) At 30, "China is a wonderful developing Democracy"
5) At 35, I was sent to communist China on business. It was a crowded, smelly, dirty, factory of despair and hopelessness. This I saw with my own eyes.
6) At 36, "China doesn't count. Successful socialism is in northern Europe."
7) I moved to northern Europe when I was 40. It was much nicer than China, but also felt like I was living in the past. I had to wait 6 months for a hernia operation.
8) When I was about 45, the migrant crisis began. The socialist/globalist/pacifist allowed them entry into every country, regardless how many crimes they committed along the way. Just 20 minutes from my house, in Calais, I was shocked to see migrants jumping onto trucks, breaking open the doors, scattering the contents across the highway, then climbing in. They went through the Chunnel and got out in England.
9) At 52, the soft socialism around me had transformed into globalism. I was told I had to call people by their preferred pronouns, though it was a lie, and even if I didn't know what the preferences were. I quit.
10) I returned to the US, and am now 60. "Socialism" is no longer a dirty word here. People openly espouse the virtues of it. Politicians run as socialists and win.

Socialism has taken many forms, from the Bolshevism of Russia, to the CCP in China, the Nazis in Germany, Fascists in Italy, and the many forms of it found in Latin America. It is one of the two most destructive ideologies on earth. It is designed to deprive, despirit, and murder everything that comes in contact with it.

Socialism is a great lie at every level. It helps no one, not even those who benefit the most. This is because the cost is the imposition of one's will on everyone else, and that destroys the soul of the usurper and the life of the oppressed.

Socialism always fails on its own, but only after destroying almost everything in its train. It can also be conquered. Those are the options.

🚨Barack Obama was using USAID to pretend to send money to a country for “aid” and instead laundering it to the Cayman Islands

He would then use that money to fund and train “Rent-a-Riots” for protests to overthrow governments

Sound familiar?

Mike Benz on Joe Rogan: “A scandal during the Obama USAID era. We were running a number of rogue USAID operations in Cuba at the time. — I'm simply showing the American people where your tax dollars are going and how these things are structured in order to systematically fool you and to fool Congress and to fool the White House:

— USAID pumped $1.2 billion in, and we sponsored these activist groups and these civil society organizations to learn how to use Facebook, learn how to use Twitter, lose, learn how to use hashtags, learn how to coordinate street protests so that everyone knows where to go, what street to show up on, what kind of slogans to know, to use in order to create the pro-democracy predicate for it.”

He talks about how Obama funded a Twitter clone that would be used to push propaganda in Cuba to inspire these protests and overthrow the government (Mike Benz explains how Barack Obama overthrew many governments)

“So what they did is they took the exact same thing as Twitter, same user interface, same like, and retweet button zunzunio is, is the Cuban slang word for hummingbird. So just, it means it's it's bird, it was the Twitter bird, the whole thing. But the whole trick about it was you have to make it look like it's coming from the Cubans if you're going to do this operation

— We can get into the deeper layers of this, but contractors were funded by USAID

The data would then be used for micro targeting efforts towards anti and pro government users. In Cuba, the developers aim to, at first used non-controversial content such as sports and music and hurricane updates — What was the plan the whole time? Once they built up enough subscribers, they would begin to introduce political messages through social bots and encourage dissent in this, in this astroturfing — the whole point is, once they hit a critical mass, they would create ‘Rent-a-Riots”

“You're using Cayman Islands bank accounts. You're saying it's, you're earmarking it for Pakistani aid.” But the money was never sent to Pakistan, it was sent to the Cayman Islands to fund this whole operation

All this and much more is broken down extremely well in this video. This is INSANE

The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.

And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.

Here is what they are discovering:

Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.

Then they found the grocery stores.

Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.

The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.

They finally understand why we do not have trains.

We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.

Why would we need trains.

The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.

Welcome to America.
Everything is free, enormous, air conditioned, comes with chips, and has five grocery stores within a mile that will sell you any cut of any animal you have ever imagined.

Write that down. 🦋

I can relate to this European’s reaction as I lived in China for nearly 24 years. This is what I wish Americans that have never lived somewhere outside the US for prolonged periods would understand. I will never take my country USA for granted!

OTD 1977: Minutes after the #Reds beat the Phillies on a Pete Rose 10th inning single at Riverfront, the team rocked baseball by trading for Mets ace Tom Seaver.

The blockbuster sent Pat Zachry, Doug Flynn, Steve Henderson and Dan Norman to the Mets.

I was at the game with my dad. We were on the walkway from Riverfront Stadium to Riverfront Coliseum, and listening to the postgame on my transistor radio, when Marty announced the trade.
I blurted it out and fans started going crazy, gathering to hear what Marty was saying.

The two-time defending World Champion Reds were just 32-27 at the time of the trade, 7 games back of the Dodgers.

Seaver would go 14-3 2.34 in 20 starts the rest of the way. But the Reds would finish the season 10 games back of Los Angeles with an overall record of 88-74.

Lost in the that night..........the Reds made four other trades that same night. They traded Gary Nolan, that night’s starter, to the Angels. Rawly Eastwick was deal to the Cardinals for Doug Capilla. Mike Caldwell was swapped to the Brewers. And the Reds purchased Rick Auerbach from the Rangers.

Seaver would go 75-46 with a 3.18 ERA for the Reds from 1977-1982.
