We’ve never seen anything like this before. A man was conscripted into jury duty by the government. He performed his civic duty and followed his conscience, refusing to acquit a woman who confessed to systematically executing her three children. The defense attorney immediately launched a public smear campaign against the juror. Soon several other jurors joined the campaign. Then the media. Even the defense attorney’s wife has joined. Now they’re doxxing the man, digging into his past, contacting his family, showing up at his house. All of this both to punish him for refusing to go with their program, and to pollute any future jury pool by making it clear that anyone who votes to convict Clancy will have their life destroyed. It’s truly one of the most outrageously evil things we’ve ever seen from the Left, and that’s saying something. A direct assault on the integrity of our justice system. They are burning down every boundary and standard in their path. And doing it all for the sake of a child murdering psychopath. Unfathomable.

Hey Chicago Bears Fans,

Your blood is about to boil reading this:

I just did some research. The state of Illinois has spent over $2.5 BILLION on free benefits for illegals last year.

At the same time Illinois Governor @JBPritzker was telling the Bears there’s “no money” for tax relief on a new stadium.

Let that sink in.

For $2.5 billion the state of Illinois could have PAID for a new stadium for the Chicago Bears.

Instead, they spent it paying for lavish benefits for aliens, while running a $3 billion deficit and losing a franchise they've had for over 100 years.

This is what Democrat priorities look like. They hate you and will destroy your state for power.

.@SenWarren All of our assets are invested in a blind trust by the largest financial institutions in broad market indexes. To suggest that individual stocks are being bought or sold, at the discretion of any member of the Trump family, would be a lie and blatantly false. Using a silly example, if you buy the “Schwab 1000,” you will get some exposure to Nvidia - as well as a 1,000 other U.S. companies large- and mid-cap stocks. It’s completely disingenuous to represent anything to the contrary. Please be better than this…

Every time someone trots out the Crusades to lecture Christians or the West, they leave out four centuries of history. I'm putting it back on the record.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐈𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲

Muhammad died in 632. Within three years, Muslim armies had taken Damascus (635). The next year, Antioch (636). The year after that, the entire Holy Land (637) — the spiritual center of Christendom, gone. Armenia became the first Christian nation fully conquered (639). Egypt, the Coptic Christian power, fell two years later (641). By 650, Muslim forces had reached southern Italy and Cyprus, taking thousands of captives as "𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴" and "𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘶𝘣𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴." Then came Spain — Muslim armies crossed from North Africa in 711 and overran most of Iberia by 715.

In roughly 80 years, Christianity lost the Middle East, North Africa, and most of the Iberian Peninsula.

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 — 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝𝐥𝐲

This was not exploration. This was conquest. In 717, Muslim forces besieged Constantinople itself — the capital of Eastern Christendom. The siege lasted a year before they were repelled. Had it succeeded, the path into Europe would have been wide open.

In 730, they invaded France. Charles Martel stopped them at Tours. In 792, the ruler of Al-Andalus called for a second invasion of France. Repelled. In 848, a third invasion of France. Repelled again.

In 827, Muslims invaded Sicily and Italy, persecuting monks and pillaging Christian communities. Sicily would remain under Islamic rule for 250 years. In 846, they invaded Rome itself and forced the Pope to pay tribute. By 909, they had taken Sardinia.

This was relentless, coordinated, and existential.

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐭

In 937, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher — built over the site Christians believe is the tomb of Christ — was burned to the ground. More churches in Jerusalem were torched alongside it. In 1009, the Church of the Resurrection was destroyed. By 1012, Al-Hakim's oppressive decrees against Christians had begun in earnest.

Christian pilgrims could no longer safely visit the sites of Christ's ministry. The holiest city in Christendom was ruled by a hostile power systematically destroying the faith itself.

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩

In 1071, Muslim Turkish forces shattered the Byzantine army at Manzikert and occupied most of Anatolia. Constantinople was now directly threatened.

In 1094, Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos sent envoys to Rome begging Western Christendom for military aid.

In 1095, Pope Urban II declared the First Crusade.

Here's Chuck Schumer arguing for ID CHECKS in the 90s to prevent illegal aliens from committing fraud.

But I thought ID requirements were the same as "Jim Crow 2.0!"

Holding Retired Officers Accountable: Secretary Hegseth's Just Action Against Captain Mark Kelly by @RobManess
As a retired U.S. Air Force Colonel with 32 years of service—including combat missions over Afghanistan, command at the squadron and wing levels, and surviving the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon—I have spent my career upholding the principles of good order, discipline, and unwavering loyalty to the Constitution and the chain of command. In retirement, as a former candidate for the United States Senate and chairman of GatorPAC, I have continued that commitment through political advocacy and support for America First principles. Today, I wholeheartedly support Secretary of War (@SecWar) Pete Hegseth's decision to initiate administrative action against retired Navy Captain Mark E. Kelly, the senior U.S. Senator from Arizona.
Secretary Hegseth announced on January 5, 2026, that the Department of War is launching retirement grade determination proceedings under 10 U.S.C. § 1370(f) against Captain Kelly. This could result in a reduction of his retired rank and corresponding retired pay. Additionally, a formal Letter of Censure has been issued, detailing Kelly's reckless misconduct and placing it permanently in his military personnel file. These steps are measured, lawful, and long overdue.
Captain Kelly, along with five other members of Congress, released a video six weeks ago that urged service members to refuse orders they deem unlawful. While framed as a reminder of existing military law, the timing and context—amid a new administration focused on restoring lethality and ending years of politicized distractions—made it a clear attempt to sow doubt and division within the ranks. Hegseth correctly identified this as seditious conduct, violating Articles 133 (conduct unbecoming an officer) and 134 (general article) of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).
Many civilians might ask: Why hold a retired officer accountable? The answer is simple. Retired officers receiving pay remain subject to the UCMJ. We do not get to cash pension checks while undermining the very institution that earned them for us. Captain Kelly knows this better than most. With 25 years of Navy service, 39 combat missions, and four spaceflights, he has an exemplary record of sacrifice. But that record does not grant immunity from accountability when political ambition overrides professional responsibility.
In my experience, military discipline is the bedrock of our effectiveness. The chain of command exists for a reason: it ensures unified action in the face of chaos. Encouraging troops—even implicitly—to question lawful orders based on partisan interpretations erodes that foundation. Kelly's statements from June through December 2025 characterized ongoing military operations as potentially illegal, counseling refusal of duty. This isn't principled whistleblowing; it's a partisan stunt that risks morale and readiness at a time when America faces aggressive adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran.
Secretary Hegseth, a combat veteran himself with deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo Bay—where he earned two Bronze Star Medals and the Combat Infantryman Badge—understands this intimately. His actions send a vital message: The era of woke experimentation and political interference in the military is over. Under the previous administration, we saw forced diversity trainings, gender ideology debates, and recruitment shortfalls that weakened our forces. President Trump's restoration of the "Department of War" moniker—evoking the decisive mindset that won World Wars—and Hegseth's leadership signal a return to warfighting focus.
Critics, including Senator Kelly himself, cry "authoritarianism" and claim this chills free speech. Nonsense. The First Amendment protects robust debate, but it does not shield retired officers from UCMJ consequences for conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline. Kelly's Senate seat does not exempt him; if anything, his position amplifies the damage. As a sitting lawmaker using his military credentials to politicize obedience, he sets a dangerous precedent. What message does it send to young enlisted troops if a retired captain-turned-senator publicly urges selective obedience?
This is not retribution; it's restoration. Hegseth has given Kelly due process: notice of the charges and 30 days to respond, with the full process concluding in 45 days. Further violations could trigger stronger measures, including recall to active duty. That's accountability, not intimidation.
Broader implications demand attention. For too long, some retired flag officers have traded their stars for media gigs, endorsing candidates or criticizing commanders in ways that blur lines between service and politics. DoD directives prohibit using titles in partisan endorsements that imply official backing, yet enforcement has been lax. Hegseth's action against Kelly draws a firm line: Your service earns respect, but it doesn't entitle you to undermine the active force for political gain.
As someone who enlisted as an EOD technician, rose through the ranks, commanded B-1 bombers, and led nuclear operations, I know the cost of indiscipline. Lives depend on trust in the chain. When retired leaders like Kelly inject partisan poison, they betray the oath we all took.
I commend Secretary Hegseth for his courage. This is leadership—purging rot to rebuild strength. The American people elected President Trump to drain swamps, including in the Pentagon. Actions like this honor our veterans, deter future misconduct, and ensure our military remains the greatest fighting force in history.
Captain Kelly has 30 days to respond. I hope he reflects on his service and chooses unity over division. But if not, justice must prevail. Our troops deserve no less.
America's military must be apolitical, lethal, and united. Secretary Hegseth is making that happen. Full support from this retired Colonel.

I'm as reflexively non-interventionist as anyone can possibly be, but Venezuela appears to be a resounding victory and one of the most brilliant military operations in American history. As an unapologetic American Chauvinist, I want America to rule over this hemisphere and exert its power for the good of our people. If some shitty little tinpot third world dictator is harming our country or interfering with our national interests, we should do exactly what Trump did to Maduro. Why not? "International law" is fake and gay. The only international law is that big and powerful countries get to do what they want. It has been that way since the dawn of civilization. It will always be that way. And we are the most powerful country on the planet. It's about time that we start acting like it.

[JD Vance @JDVance]

You see a lot claims that Venezuela has nothing to do with drugs because most of the fentanyl comes from elsewhere. I want to address this:

First off, fentanyl isn't the only drug in the world and there is still fentanyl coming from Venezuela (or at least there was).

Second, cocaine, which is the main drug trafficked out of Venezuela, is a profit center for all of the Latin America cartels. If you cut out the money from cocaine (or even reduce it) you substantially weaken the cartels overall. Also, cocaine is bad too!

Third, yes, a lot of fentanyl is coming out of Mexico. That continues to be a focus of our policy in Mexico and is a reason why President Trump shut the border on day one.

Fourth, I see a lot of criticism about oil. About 20 years ago, Venezuela expropriated American oil property and until recently used that stolen property to get rich and fund their narcoterrorist activities. I understand the anxiety over the use of military force, but are we just supposed to allow a communist to steal our stuff in our hemisphere and do nothing? Great powers don't act like that.

The United States, thanks to President Trump's leadership, is a great power again. Everyone should take note.

A five-years-too-late admission that Georgia illegally certified 315,000 ballots in the 2020 election, handing Joe Biden a “win” by just 11,779 votes, is not a small detail. It is a historic breach of democratic accountability. The fact that President Trump eventually won reelection does not erase what was done. He was vilified, canceled, and relentlessly prosecuted for stating what has now been acknowledged as true all along. If this passes without consequence, it will eventually be looked back on as the moment when inaction, not the wrongdoing itself, became the defining failure of democracy.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

I don’t recall the bishops making any sort of video like this to condemn the Biden White House for supporting, funding, and facilitating the mass slaughter of children in the womb. I also can’t remember seeing any video with solemn condemnations of the Biden White House and its support for the castration and sexual mutilation of children. That’s in spite of the fact that Biden is actually “Catholic” and he was actively engaged in activities that are explicitly condemned as mortally sinful by the Church. Trump is neither Catholic nor is he doing anything, policy wise, that contradicts Church teaching. Deportations certainly do not. And yet the bishops suddenly find their voice and their courage for this issue. Very strange indeed.
