Kyle Clark asked Colorado GOP candidate for governor Victor Marx whether voters should believe he’s lived "one of the most extraordinary lives in human history," or whether he’s "a liar and a fraud."

John Oliver: “That might be the first event in history won by the moderator.”

NEWSFLASH: SOMEWHAT INTELLIGENT. LMAO!

Hannity to Koppel: "Do you think we're bad for America?"

Koppel: "Yeah."

Hannity tried to gaslight him. Koppel wasn't having it. Hannity's desperate pivot: "We have to give the American people some credit that they're somewhat intelligent..."

Koppel stares, bottom lip drops. You could see every Fox lie from the last 12 years flashing behind his eyes—his face screaming, "They absolutely do not know the difference."

Let's give Sean the benefit of the doubt: his viewers are somewhat intelligent—his words, not mine.

I'm just the messenger.

Just finished reading Jeff Strong’s “Torn.”

I have thoughts.

The first thing that becomes clear after reading the introduction alone is that most of the people railing against this book have not read this book.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man."

A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life.

Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Ossoff: Last September, the President of Kazakhstan calls Donald Trump and says he wants to grant tungsten mining rights to an American company. And the very next month, Eric and Don Jr. get a stake in the American company pursuing the mining deal.

Six days later, six days after Prince Eric and Prince Don get their stake, Kazakhstan announces this company will get, “The largest known undeveloped tungsten resource in the world.” A few more weeks go by, and then the U.S. government, run by their father, sets aside 1.6 billion of your tax dollars to fund and finance their mining project. In Kazakhstan.

All this while you pay more for gas, for groceries, for health care, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

@JakeHatch Seems like they care more about money for the short term than growing the sport for the long term! FIFA needs to go away and be replaced!

One of the last quotes President Nelson gave. How are we doing?

“True charity towards all men is the hallmark of peacemakers! It is imperative that we have charity in our discourse, both public and private. I thank those of you who took my previous counsel to heart. But we can still do better.
The present hostility in public dialogue and on social media is alarming. Hateful words are deadly weapons. Contention prevents the Holy Ghost from being our constant companion.
As followers of Jesus Christ, we should lead the way as peacemakers. As charity becomes part of our nature, we will lose the impulse to demean others. We will stop judging others. We will have charity for those from all walks of life. Charity towards all men is essential to our progress. Charity is the foundation of a godly character.”

When I was on my mission I had a period of time where there was some confusion and frustration.

Many Elders around me were having lots of baptisms and they openly did not follow the mission rules.

I began to get discouraged.
I was trying my best to follow the rules and work as diligently as I could, but no success was coming.

I remember praying and asking God why this was. Why did the disobedient get to baptize and me who was trying to be obedient have none.

A distinct thought came to my mind one day after praying.

“They are baptizing because it gives them the experience of seeing someone else becoming converted to the Gospel. It gives their testimony a chance to be strengthened and their conversion to grow.
Baptizing is not what you need. You need to struggle right now. Are you going to still be obedient even if you don’t have success?”

It was both a difficult but then special experience.
The next transfer I got one of my favorite companions and we baptized 3 people that we had been teaching a long time.

I learned to never judge someone else by what blessings you perceive they are having or not having.
It’s still not easy, but I’ve seen the joy in it when I do it.

I know that the blessings God has for us will come as we are obedient. Some come now, some come later, and some come really later but they will always come.

How does crypto work....

This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.

Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.

IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.

The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.

The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.

Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.” 

Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.

The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.

This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.

Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

They loved Marjorie Taylor Greene, now they hate her.

They loved Thomas Massie, now they hate him.

They loved Lauren Boebert, now they hate her.

They made fun of Biden for nodding off ("Sleepy Joe), now they ignore Trump outright falling asleep.

They put "I Did That" Biden stickers on high gas prices, now they ignore gas prices being even higher.

They bragged about Trump being the no wars President, now they support war.

They bashed Biden for sending money to Ukraine, now they ignore Trump sending money to both Ukraine and Israel.

They demanded the Epstein files, now they bash anyone asking for the Epstein files.

To be a MAGA is to be a slave.

Not physically, but mentally.

They stand for nothing.

We're up against people who stand for nothing.

And with the most misplaced confidence you've ever seen, they try to tell us whats-what.

We shouldn't even acknowledge these people.

The Trump supporters that remain are mentally too far gone.

I don't even want to argue with them anymore.
