🚨FIRST MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT🚨

Rockwell’s Gas and Mercantile is no longer just a meme, it’s real. All of it. The first location is coming to Whitleyville, TN where its founders, C.Jay Engel and Ryan Green have recently moved their families. We hope to have the funds raised and the renovations and installations completed by late spring of 2027.

Americans have noticed the complete degradation of the American gas station and country convenience store. You see it. We see it. We all talk about it. Owned by foreigners, drenched in lotto and vape signs, filled with slop foods, and generally off-putting.

We don’t have to live like this. You know how gas stations used to look. You can picture the old country store. You remember seeing images of the vintage roadside diner. Rockwell’s is bringing all this back. We are partnering with locals and friends to stock our store and our diner with great products. And it’s going to be a blast.

Just weeks ago, we went under contract on an old community schoolhouse, built in the 1940s. It is the perfect location and has the perfect historical significance for a project like this. We are seeking to completely restore it, gut the parts that have decayed, and renew it into something that will attract folks from all over the area. Already, we have contracted with architects, gas station consultants, kitchen consultants, and builders to start the process of bringing forth this great vision.

Because we want to do this right, our calculated costs are in the $1.3 million range. We have filed the necessary paperwork for a full investment raise, which we will activate very shortly—and we anticipate filling it fast, due to the excitement around the project.

We’ll be launching a full website and merch store soon for those that want to participate and support the project from afar. We’ll soon be announcing brand collaborations with American heritage brands that you can support as well. Please DM us with questions. Suggestions. Partnership ideas.

We can’t let the doomers gaslight us: decline is not inevitable. We can rebuild. American owned, and proud of it, Rockwell’s will stand as a symbol of American restoration.

59 years ago today, Israel attacked the USS Liberty in international waters. 34 crew members were killed and 174 were wounded by the IDF.

Today, I spoke on the House floor to honor the fallen and to recognize the survivors who were present in the gallery.

The Skyscrapers of the Old World

No two are alike; each is unique in its own way, no matter which city in America you look at.

In the Old World, there was no mass production; every building was special and absolutely unique.

Only the architects of the Old World were able to combine beauty and functionality in a way that still leaves us speechless today.

🟥 W toku procesu wycieka coraz więcej szczegółów. Zabójca, Vickrum Digwa, zadzwonił na policje, a nie na pogotowie i skłamał, że to Henry go zaatakował, był pijany, obraził go rasistowsko i strącił mu turban.
Policja Hampshire przyjechała (trzy policjantki) i natychmiast zakuli Henry’ego w kajdanki, mimo że leżał w kałuży krwi z ranami kłutymi klatki piersiowej i nóg. Wielokrotnie powtarzał: „I’ve been stabbed” („Zostałem dźgnięty”), „I can’t breathe” („Nie mogę oddychać”). Na nagraniu z kamery osobistej słychać głos policjanta: „I don’t think you have, mate” („Nie sądzę, koleś”).
Policjant, który zakuł Henry’ego w kajdanki, śmiał się, gdy ten powiedział, że został dźgnięty. Potem wleczono go po żwirze i trzymano skutego, gdy się wykrwawiał. Dopiero gdy stracił przytomność, funkcjonariusze zdjęli kajdanki i zaczęli reanimację. Henry zmarł na miejscu.
Ponadto policja zabrała telefon Henry’ego i jego taty i przeczytała wszystkie wiadomości w poszukiwaniu rasistowskich komentarzy lub żartów.
Teraz policja z Hampshire wydała publiczne przeprosiny: „Przepraszamy, że Henry został zakuty i aresztowany w momencie, gdy tracił przytomność. Zostaliśmy okłamani przez sprawcę…” Mimo to ani sad, ani policja nie ujawniły dotąd nagrań z kamer.
Trwa dochodzenie IOPC (niezależny organ ds. skarg na policję). Wielu domaga się dymisji funkcjonariuszy, którzy byli na miejscu. Trzy policjantki podobno odeszły ze służby (niepotwierdzone).

American soldiers have fought and bled for our freedom of speech. It is the bedrock of who we are. I promise you right now: we will never allow fake divisions to tear us apart, and we will never allow the government to take freedom of speech away from any of us.🇺🇸

As your Governor, I will stand as a wall between you and government overreach. There will be no war bonds sold under my watch. There will be no laws signed that violate your constitutional rights.❤️🤍💙

True power shouldn't belong to Sacramento, it belongs to your local communities. Your vote should give you a direct say in your daily life. It’s time we address the lack of local accountability, from the cities that don't get to vote for their mayors, to the local judges who never face an election, to the corporate control over our power companies and zoning laws.🦅🇺🇸

If you want a leader who isn’t caught up in Left vs. Right politics, but is purely focused on the people. I’m standing right here. I grew up in this state, experienced its failed policies firsthand, went back to school to earn four college degrees, and I’ve been fighting this battle for years.🪖

I’m ready. I’m suited up. My armor is on. Let’s take our state back!!!! 🇺🇸🦅

Say what you want about the Left, but these people understand that institutions shape public consciousness and that the elites who run them get to determine what's promoted by society.

These people almost instinctively understand that power and culture are in a circular feedback loop that's set into motion when just a handful of levers are pulled. So they pour everything they can into controlling those levers, because they so desperately want the power that comes along with it.

The Left doesn't actually particularly care about the universities, Hollywood, Wall Street, Silicon Valley, or the various media outlets that all regurgitate the eternal Progressive omnicause. This is why they're leading all of these things to ruin. They're just tools for acquiring what actually matters, which is power.

For a bunch of self-proclaimed egalitarians, the Left understands politics, hierarchy, and elite theory far better than the Right.

And speaking of the Right, is it even fair to say "the Right" exists at all? There's just the "anti-Left", and these people only exist as a political "we" through the pure negation of the eternal Progressive omnicause.

The anti-Left is also inherently anti-political. The only thing that crosses their minds is how to escape. "How do I get the government off my back?" they ask over and over again. "How do I keep more of my money?" "How do I get these people to leave me alone?" "How do I get the government out of X?"

The anti-Left has precisely ZERO theory of politics and no governing agenda, because these people don't want to be governed at all. They want to abolish the very concepts of governing, and thus politics itself.

They're essentially anarchists in the truest sense of the word, even more committed to the cause than self-described Anarcho-Capitalists are. At least those people have Hoppe.

But politics does not disappear just because one side finds it morally repugnant. The anti-Left's commitment to anti-politics does not create genuine freedom or liberation from the state. It just creates a vacuum that inevitably gets filled by whichever group has the strongest will to power.

And Progressives have a stronger will to power. These people will riot over a crackhead overdosing on fentanyl. They will claim that men can become women. They will declare that urinals are art and that Boston's City Hall is breathtakingly beautiful. They will murder their political adversaries in cold blood on college campuses and then go online to publicly cheer about it. They will declare borders invalid and chant Free Palestine. They will brag to you that Somalis built America, even as they claim America itself is uniquely evil and must be destroyed.

And in the face of this insanity, the anti-Left's response is to meekly beg, "Just please leave me alone." More than anything else, they just want to escape from this madness.

But politics is precisely that which you cannot escape from.

Someone IS GOING TO decide what gets taught to children, what speech is going to get you canceled, what social behaviors get you sent to prison vs being given an honorary doctorate, what international borders exist and who controls them, what institutions are allowed to openly discriminate against, and what lifestyles are celebrated or mocked.

Even the decision to "just leave people alone" is not an escape from politics. Choosing to "leave someone alone" is ITSELF a political decision made by whoever the ruling elites are, and enforced by the institutions they control.

The anti-political anti-Left has either totally forgotten all of this, or they never understood it to begin with, which is why they are being systematically crushed, no matter how many elections they win.

The role that monastics and the Catholic Church played in preserving civilization cannot be understated.

Many have heard about the countless Greek and Latin texts that were copied and preserved by monks. A great achievement, but also the organizational structure of society was guided by the Church.

It wasn't uncommon for the local bishop to be seen as the true leader of a region rather than the petty king. Bishops were not just the spiritual leaders of a people, but also administrative ones who filled the vacuum of Roman officials.

And these bishops sometimes even defended their consitutients militarily, fighting off invading forces that threatened stability. For example, Bishop Germanus of Auxerre became famous for leading successful defenses against invading Picts and Saxons, and confronting barbarian kings personally.

After Rome fell, the Catholic Church became the centralizing institution of Western Europe for the better part of the next 1000 years. A clergymen was at the center of so many aspects of life from the 6th century to the 16th.

That water clarity is an engineering decision, and the math behind it is wilder than the video.

Roman aqueducts ran on gravity alone. No pumps, no pressure systems. Engineers carved channels with a gradient so shallow it borders on absurd. The Pont du Gard in southern France drops 2.5 centimeters over 275 meters. That's roughly the thickness of a coin over the length of three football fields. They surveyed that accuracy with plumb lines and wooden leveling instruments.

The clarity you're seeing is a direct product of flow velocity. Too steep and the water erodes the channel walls, picks up sediment, turns brown. Too flat and it stagnates. Roman engineers targeted a slope of about 20 centimeters per kilometer, which kept the water moving fast enough to stay fresh but slow enough to stay clear. Before the water reached the city, it passed through multi-chamber settling tanks where velocity dropped near zero. Suspended particles sank. Clean water flowed out the top into the next chamber. Repeat three or four times.

Pliny specified the minimum slope in writing. Vitruvius published the exact mortar ratio for hydraulic cement: one part lime to two parts volcanic ash for underwater work. The pozzolana from Pozzuoli reacted with water to form a calcium-aluminum-silicate compound that actually gets stronger the longer it sits submerged. Modern concrete degrades in water. Roman concrete bonds with it.

Scale the whole system and it gets harder to process. Eleven aqueducts fed Rome at its peak. Combined output: roughly 1 million cubic meters of water per day. That works out to about 250 gallons per person for a city of one million. Modern New York delivers about 125 gallons per person per day. Ancient Rome had access to double the per capita water supply of the largest city in the United States, running entirely on slope and stone.

The Trevi Fountain in Rome is still fed by one of them. Two thousand years, same source, same gravity, same water.
