Happy 1099th Birthday England 🏴
England was founded on 12 July 927 after the unification of all the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms under the rule of King Æthelstan.
The very first King of England.
The left honestly believes they can take over a reputable institution, gut it, then start spitting out “studies” asserting the most ridiculous and contradictory things, and we just have to accept it, because once upon a time, said institution used to be intellectually reliable.
ERIKA KIRK: "So you have the internet coming after you. You have them slandering your name. You have them saying all this trash about you. And what do you do? You wake up that next morning. You put on the armor of God and you keep going!"
Amen, Erika. Amen
This isn't surprising to me, but it's almost certainly much worse than most people think, especially if they graduated from university 20 more more years ago.
So let's figure out how to get more Black kids to ace the exam! Of course, that might require making teachers work harder or smarter, an idea that the teachers' mafia––ahem sorry, teachers' union––would resist.
OH MY GOSH!
Just spent the last 3 hours signing books at the @BackroadsCafe
in beautiful Wayne County, PA
Christine & Bill — the owners of @BackroadsCafe — always generously open their establishment to the grassroots
& I want everyone to know about this treasure in Newfoundland, Pennsylvania.
One of my longest-standing arguments is that we are not living in Orwell’s 1984, where truth is centrally suppressed and censored by force (that’s former communist societies, modern-day China, Russia, North Korea).
We are living in something much closer to Huxley’s Brave New World.
The truth is not hidden - it is almost always readily available. But it is buried beneath an industrial quantity of noise: propaganda, outrage, half-truths, conspiracy theories, influencer theatre, algorithmic rage bait and an endless stream of content designed not to inform us, but to keep us emotionally stimulated.
The modern information system does not need to censor the truth when it can simply drown it in noise.
A fact no longer has to be disproven - it only has to be surrounded by a hundred competing claims, stripped of context and nuance, turned into partisan ammunition and pushed into the same feed as celebrity gossip, memes and 15 second videos engineered to deliver the fastest possible dopamine hit. By the time the truth reaches us, it appears as just another piece of content competing for our attention.
That is the more sophisticated form of control: not preventing people from knowing, but exhausting their capacity to care.
Orwell feared a world in which people would be deprived of information. Huxley feared a world in which they would be given so much distraction, stimulation and triviality that they would lose the desire to seek it.
The defining struggle of our age is therefore not simply between truth and censorship, but between truth and indifference.
Erling Haaland’s interview after the game. This guy is a top professional. Just top. Be it in defeat or in his wins. Thank you Erling. Norway may have been knocked out but you won the hearts of millions of people across America and all over the world. 🇳🇴
Something interesting and unpredictable is happening around the country. In blue states Republicans are doing unusually well.
In Oregon, according to a survey conducted by Public Opinion Strategies, Republican Christine Drazan leads Governor Tina Kotek 48 percent to 44 percent.
In Minnesota Republican senate candidate Michelle Lafoya is tied at 47 with Democratic Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan.
Hard to believe there is a blue wave coming when states like Minnesota and Oregon are in play. The continued rise of the big government socialist-weird values Democrats seems to be turning off a lot of people even in states that have traditionally been very leftwing.
The fact this one dude - by himself - can walk into any state and find blatant fraud everywhere he goes proves two things: 1) the fraud is rampant at an unprecedented scale and 2) the government agencies who are supposed to protect our tax dollars are either completely incompetent or complicit in the fraud.
I’ve always conducted myself as a professional with sacrosanct respect, but I have to get something off of my chest:
Right now, at this very moment, we don’t know the true status of Senator Mitch McConnell’s health (we wish him well)
& then we find out that Senator Lindsey Graham died from a “brief and sudden illness” after traveling to Ukraine & Turkey.
What the heck does that even mean?
A “brief and sudden illness” really turns my stomach
because if our Senate/gov’t cant be honest about the health of its colleagues,
then how can we even believe them about the deaths of its colleagues?
“This past week, I have seen something I'm still trying to unpack and put into words, and someone asked me, ‘Do you still want to go to the Chapter Leadership Summit?’... And I thought to myself, ‘You know, if you don't fight for what's right—I would much rather our country look like this room than the inside of that courtroom.’”

And the worst thing is paying tributes only proved America was weak and invited even bigger demands.
Until Jefferson sailed to Tripoli, bombarded their harbors, and put Marines on the ground.
Because evil exploits weakness, takes what it can, and comes back for more.
It doesn’t negotiate in good faith.
So the only solution to pirates, terrorists, and tyrants is overwhelming force that makes further aggression impossible.
Appease evil and you just buy the next attack.
