It will forever blow my mind the number of neighbors, family members, & friends that went full NAZI AUTHORITARIAN during COVID & thought of themselves as the good guys.........

My kids & I got the cops called on us numerous times for playing outside at "closed parks."

Saddest thing is none have ever come back around & said SORRY. I got caught up in the propaganda & acknowledge I was wrong.

Would be water under the bridge if they did, but a lot of people showed me exactly who they were during that time.

Forever changed me to be honest.

The only good thing is it WOKE UP A LOT OF PEOPLE that legacy media is 100% fake, government hates you, & big pharma will happily kill kids for profit.

A Mom in Tulsa called 3 health systems last week asking the price of her son's tonsillectomy.

Health system A: "We cannot quote you a price."

Health system B: "Pricing depends on your insurance."

Health system C: "Our financial counselor will reach out after the procedure."

No other industry in America gets to operate this way.

Imagine ordering at a restaurant and getting the bill six weeks after dinner.

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

Out of every disgusting, dishonest piece of filth the mainstream media has produced about Hurricane Helene...

This is the worst.

60 Minutes has NEVER done a story on the families FEMA denied.

They NEVER mentioned the Amish, who are STILL in the mountains rebuilding homes 550 days later.

They NEVER mentioned Jake Jarvis, who has worked 550 days STRAIGHT FOR FREE for Hurricane Helene victims.

Instead, they dug up some fringe conspiracy angle to smear the people who actually showed up as White Nationalists.

I'm so angry.

Let me tell you what 60 Minutes will NEVER report on

I was there. I lived it. I am still here.

I shared every story I could find.

Me, my wife, hundreds of volunteers delivered RVs to mothers holding babies who were sleeping in TOOL SHEDS AND TENTS in the freezing cold, in the mountains.

Because their homes had been ripped off the side of a mountain and washed down the French Broad.

So tell me 60 Minutes... WHERE WAS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?

Tell me, WHY did all these volunteers NEED to show up?

Any thoughts on that?!!!!!

Any investigation AT ALL into the federal or state government's response to Hurricane Helene?

Please tell me... if the federal government was doing such a GREAT JOB, why did we need to put victims in RVs...

...A MONTH AFTER THE HURRICANE?!!!!!!!

Literally every single victim you talk to in Western North Carolina has a horror story about dealing with FEMA...

...and guess who they will all say actually cam through for them?

Neighbors.
Church groups.
The Amish.
The Cajun Navy.
Shawn Hendricks.
Samaritan's Purse.
MercuryOne.

The Mission Mules hauling insulin up washed-out roads, ONLY ACCESSIBLE by mules.

Greg Biffle burning his own fuel in helicopters.

Veterans like Adam Smith who organized helicopter rescues with other veterans BY HIMSELF and then was demonized by the media for it.

Volunteers like Jake Jarvis working TO THIS DAY, 550 days later without ANY PAY AT ALL.

THOSE ARE THE STORIES FROM HURRICANE HELENE WORTH TELLING.

But 60 Minutes won't tell ANY OF THEM.

Because the truth makes the federal government the villain and the "deplorables" are actually the heroes in this story and they can NEVER admit that.

So instead they smeared the rescuers as white nationalists.

This is unforgivable.

I was there. I saw it with my own eyes.

And I will BE DAMNED if I let CBS rewrite the history of what happened to my mountains.

Poor Americans who attend church regularly are happier than rich Americans who never go.

Behavioral scientist William von Hippel thought he'd made a coding error. He hadn't.

"Regularly attending services has a bigger impact on your happiness than wealth," he writes. "Money buys a fair bit of happiness but connection gives you more bang for the buck."

What's happening? Rich people already have most of what money buys. What they lack is what churches provide for free: weekly, repeated contact with people who know your name.

Von Hippel is direct about the cost: "I suspect that wealthy, educated urbanites are paying a steeper price for their lifestyle than they realize. Many of us have paid too great a price in connection for our increased autonomy."

A few months ago when the shop teacher got fired I approached the principal on how I could help. He was the 5th one in 6 years. Ag teacher wasn’t any better until this year and now we have a good one. Next year I will be teaching auto mechanics, body and welding. Today I went in to help prepare for an FFA competition. I am no ag influencer or been invited to the infamous farmcon but as community members we must step in and help the next generation by more than talking. Today was great and I can’t wait for what the future beholds.

There's no reason "Solar Farms" have to be built in the countryside. You could roof multistorey carparks with solar panels, or pave the tops of office buildings.

Converting farm land to solar panels is just as much about destroying food security as it is generating power.

[Sama Hoole @SamaHoole]

Almonds are an environmental catastrophe.

People hear that and assume you mean in some abstract, projected, 2050 kind of way.

No. Present tense. Happening now. Today, while someone posts about their oat-and-almond-milk morning ritual and refers to it as 'conscious consumption.'

- 1.1 trillion gallons of water used annually in California alone
- 1,900 gallons required to produce a single pound of almonds
- 10% of California's entire water supply consumed during historic drought conditions
- Approximately 50 billion bees killed per year from pesticide and fungicide exposure during mass pollination events
- Entire Central Valley sections converted to monoculture desert requiring permanent irrigation infrastructure
- Fungicide cocktails applied during February bloom, peak bee vulnerability, routinely implicated in colony collapse
- Almonds provide essentially no complete protein, moderate oxalate load, and require industrial processing to make palatable
- Virtually every almond ever eaten has been shipped internationally at least once

The person drinking almond milk in a reusable cup is, on balance, responsible for the deaths of more living creatures before 9am than a British beef farmer manages in a fortnight.

But the cow breathed out, so.

I'm going to keep posting this Alstair Begg clip "The Man on the Middle Cross" (less than four minutes in length) every Holy Week, because its message is true in 2026, it will be true in 2036 and it will be true in 3036.

"If i take my eyes off the cross, I can then give only lip service to its efficacy while at the same time living as if my salvation depends upon me.

And as soon as you go there it will lead you either to abject despair or a horrible kind of arrogance.

And it is only the cross of Christ that deals both with the dreadful depths of despair and the pretentious arrogance of the pride of man that says you know, I can figure this out."

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Mike Leach shares a must-listen postgame message on resilience, adversity, and failure.

"Nothing is really, really, really fun unless it's hard. Nothing is really fun unless it's hard."

"We've got to embrace that things are gonna be hard. We've got to embrace to be excited when things are hard."

Successful people don't fear obstacles - they embrace them.

"You gotta embrace to be excited about it being hard and playing extremely hard."

"Even if you get way up on somebody, you want to be as hard as you possibly can because you're pushing yourself. And all of a sudden you're making great plays, you're doing things that you've never done before."

Growth requires discomfort. You have to be willing to look bad before you get better.

Then he ended with one line:
"Embrace the fact that it's hard. Never hope that it's easy."

If you only chase what's easy, you'll never become great.

Embrace the hard because that is where growth, success, and character are built.

Never Forget...when skate parks were filled with sand to make them unusable during COVID mandated lockdowns.

Never forget how they treated us, locked us down & ruined outdoor parks to keep us inside.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

As another man who once worked with me declares himself saddened by my beliefs on gender and sex, I thought it might be useful to compile a list for handy reference. Which of the following do you imagine makes actors and directors who aren’t involved with the HBO reboot of Harry Potter so miserable?

Is it my belief that women and girls should have their own public changing rooms and bathrooms?

That women should retain female-only rape crisis centres?

That men don’t belong in women’s sport?

That female prisoners shouldn’t be incarcerated with violent men and male sex offenders?

That women should remain a protected class in law, because they have sex-specific needs and issues?

That language should reflect reality rather than ideological jargon, especially in a medical context?

That women shouldn’t be harassed, persecuted or fired for refusing to pretend humans can change sex?

That women should not be threatened with violence and rape when they assert their rights?

That freedom of speech and belief are essential to a pluralistic democratic society?

That troubled minors, especially those who are gay, autistic and trauma-experienced, should be given mental health support instead of irreversible surgeries and drug treatments on non-existent evidence of benefit?

That gay people shouldn’t be pressured to include the opposite sex in their dating pools, nor should they be smeared as ‘genital fetishists’ when they don’t?

That cross-dressing heterosexual male fetishists aren’t actually oppressed, but having the time of their lives piggybacking off gender identity ideology?

That said ideology, and the privileged, blinkered fools pushing it because they suffer zero consequences themselves, have done more damage to the political left’s credibility than Trump and Farage could have achieved in a century?

Let me have your thoughts.
