You know it was an opportunity to put needed security under the public ballroom? As a Congressperson you know this... and spining a misrepresentation

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Oh, look at that. Turns out the ballroom is being funded by taxpayer dollars after all.

Welcome to Donald Trump’s America. Where families and people living on the edge have lost healthcare, can’t afford groceries, are losing their homes, and barely getting by—and the President is using your taxpayer dollars to build a guilded ballroom and host cage fights on the White House lawn.

That $600 million that could have helped support seniors or feed kids—but this is where their priorities lay. We won’t forget.

The job test is legal again.

Unleashing a world where you don't have to pay a university $150,000 to prove you can read.

Universities are already in decline.
This will -- happily -- accelerate it.

People had to shame Denver's local media into reporting on the drunk driver, out on $0 bond, who mowed down 3 women downtown

And still I only saw one news story... why is our local media carrying water for this failing local government? Media should hold gov accountable

SAVE ACT: When a leader is unable to lead it is his duty to step down and let someone else lead. A supermajority of Democrats and Republicans want the senate to pass the election integrity bill to pass. It is time for Thune to resign.

[Nick Freitas @NickJFreitas]

To the New Yorkers fleeing NYC, a couple things…

1. You are fleeing policies. Those policies are a result of a leftist worldview, that in many ways you supported, donated to or assisted, even if it was with just your silence or apathy.

2. The places you are fleeing to, have done a much better job protecting their society and environment from that worldview than you did. So you need to learn from them, not try to lead them.

3. You may be rich and powerful and very intelligent in your respective field, but none of that power stopped the inevitable takeover of your beloved city, most likely because you thought you could placate or compromise with the left. You were wrong.

4. Respectfully, the lesson that needs to be learned from this, is not that the left went “too far” but that there is no such thing as “far enough” for the left. They can't be negotiated with, they need to be defeated. You can either help with that, or you can keep fleeing from place to place until there is no place left.

Also many of the Founders were quite wealthy. Washington was a 'developer' who assembled an enormous amount of land, selling it for 'development'..

[The Rational Animal 🤔 @theobjectivist]

I appreciate the direct response, Congressman @RoKhanna. You've raised a real question, so let me answer it seriously.

You're partly right, and I'll grant it fully: the Founders who established a government to protect individual rights performed an achievement no inventor can match, because they built the precondition for every other achievement. Jefferson and the framers created the framework of liberty. Lincoln preserved it and extended its promise to those wrongly denied it. On that we agree. The statesman who secures freedom is a hero of the highest order.

But notice the distinction that matters. Those men are great precisely to the degree they protected liberty, not to the degree they exercised power. The Founders' greatness was in handing power back. Lincoln's was in ending a violation of rights, slavery, the gravest in our history.

That is why FDR doesn't belong with them. He did the opposite. He expanded the state at the expense of the freedom the Founders secured: seizing gold under threat of prison, attempting to pack the Court, building the apparatus that treats your earnings as the government's to allocate. He used power; he didn't restrain it.

And here is the deeper point. You frame it as Rockefeller and Musk versus the statesmen, as if they compete. They don't. The statesman's whole purpose is to protect the conditions, namely individual rights, in which the producer can create.

The Founders, along with Locke and Aristotle, built the house. Musk, Rockefeller, Bezos, and Vanderbilt are examples of what free men do inside it.

If you fully understood the principle of individual rights, you would be fighting against men and women like Warren, AOC, Sanders, and the rest of these collectivist statists in both parties, instead of advocating ideas that deprive individuals of the very rights you claim to honor.

Data collection on unaffiliated. That is, which way to they lean? BoCo has done it for years and admits to it.

[Break The Chains Media @BreakTheChainsM]

In regards to Colorado's color coded return envelopes:

surface level, the reasoning seems fine - different affiliations have different primaries

But why color code anything thats being read by a ballot reading machine that can sort results automatically?

I do think I'll have to try the Apple pie again... after resting for 24 hours to cool down

[Michael Brown @MichaelDBrown]

@kbwatso Do you have to go out and blab it out all over the place? 🤣

[Kirk Watson @kbwatso]

You know it's not a secret you actually like what you do... You may even like your producer...And g-d forbid, those who listen...

[Michael Brown @MichaelDBrown]

Give me a steaming ol' cup of McD's HOT coffee, a HOT fried apple pie, and a personal injury, products liability lawyer, and I'll retire early. ;)

⚠️ WARNING: Three of America's most senior national security officials, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, have reportedly expressed serious doubt that Tehran is negotiating in good faith, citing intelligence that Iran's intentions don't align with its commitments.

@pmarca Some ideas are better than others. Ditto design. Methodologies and systems honed over millennia have been though success/failure cycles. That is why classically informed architecture and design is better. https://t.co/JV92z80WwA. Love Lutyens, Voysey... Duany

[Kirk Watson @kbwatso]

But they are going to break the deal, now aren't they? What do y'all place the odds at? Then, what's the reaction by DJT? Does it help with international support (such that it is) that the IRGC clearly broke the deal? on the mean time it gives Saudi's etc time to bypass the Strait, and for the US/Israel to build and locate munitions. Maybe not 14D chess, but taking each move to one's advantage.

On the other hand, a carpenter a couple of decades ago offered his brother's (an Air Force Major) suggestion: "glass".

[pointsnfigures1 @pointsnfigures1]

@AlexBerenson agree based on what we know in the public sphere

[Kirk Watson @kbwatso]

Wooo. the comments. "trump is over" blah blah blah
1) DJT is a very patient man.
2) Do not underestimate his abilities (just like Musk)
3) Do not call his bluff, dump on him, etc. You will regret it.
4) The islamic pause to regroup... in reverse. See the (good) comments about painting targets.
5) Do not think you know what a response will be.

Nixon said to his biographer you have to make them think your crazy. The left (and woke right) constantly reinforces this image of the man. He's not.

(PS I he was not my first choice... I was wrong)

[Kurt Schlichter @KurtSchlichter]

You know, and I hate to say it, a lot of normies might be just fine with an objectively crappy deal and Trump’s support could grow because of it.

My position? I’d have crushed them until they begged to agree to my demands. But I didn’t get elected president.

[Kirk Watson @kbwatso]

The first sentence is part of the reason....

[Shawn Taylor music @Taylormusic67]

@KurtSchlichter And Don't you think when they crawl out of their holes over the next 60 days we'll have painted a whole bunch of targets.

The fantasy is we pull them into our orbit, chances are slim but the payoff would be Legion

[Flesh Simulator @fleshsimulator]

One thing that cannot be overstated is the damage caused by inner city policy being set by white liberals who live in the suburbs and get their idea of the world from progressive journalists and nobody else.

If you are a suburban white leftist, please indulge me in a little experiment.

First, read how The Intercept describes this event, and picture it in your mind based off this description.

Then, watch the videos of the event.

Then extrapolate that to everything you read about, rather than see.
