Read this - every single word. It's excellent. This is the accurate view of history.

[Cynical Publius @CynicalPublius]

I get tired of Democrats claiming to be on the “right side of history” when both their past and their present are so utterly sordid and destructive. So, if you are a Democrat, let me tell you about MY side of history and YOUR side of history.

My side of history is Cato the Elder, John Locke, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Irving Babbitt and William F. Buckley.  Your side of history is Thomas Hobbes, Karl Marx, Josef Stalin, Mao’s Little Red Book and Noam Chomsky.

My side of history is George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Martin Luther King, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump.  Your side of history is Tories who fled to Canada, Jefferson Davis, Woodrow Wilson, Bull Connor, George Wallace and Nancy Pelosi.

My side of history is freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom of religion and spirited debate.  Your side of history is ThoughtCrime, Speech Codes, religious persecution and Cancel Culture.

My side of history is Brown v. Board of Ed., Loving v. VA, Gitlow v. NY, and Heller v. DC.  Your side of history is Dred Scott, Korematsu and Roe v. Wade.

My side of history is Jackie Robinson.  Your side of history is Colin Kaepernick.

My side of history is head held high, standing straight, hand over heart.  Your side of history is sullen glances at the ground, kneeling.

My side of history is the family as the foundation of society. Your side of history is mutilating confused children.

My side of history is the rockets’ red glare.  Your side of history is imagine no religion.

My side of history is firefighters going up the stairs into the Twin Towers.  Your side of history is 28-year-old men playing Call of Duty in their mothers’ basements.

My side of history is smoked brisket.  Your side of history is a no-foam, no-sugar, soy latte.

My side of history is Lincoln freeing the slaves and General Patton liberating Buchenwald.  Your side of history is Fort Sumter, the Gulag and Pol Pot’s killing fields.

My side of history is Mel Brooks.  Your side of history is Amy Schumer.

My side of history is all men and women are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights.  Your side of history is critical theory and only some lives matter.

My side of history is 20-year-olds storming Omaha Beach. Your side of history is 20-year-olds in their safe spaces with adult coloring books.

My side of history is American men and women disabled by an IED.  Your side of history is American men and women disabled by anxiety.

My side of history is the Kentucky Rifle, the Springfield 1861, the M1911, the M1 Garand, the M14 and the AR15.  Your side of history is whimpering submission.

My side of history is Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, Apollo 11 and Jonas Salk.  Your side of history is “global warming,” 100+ genders and porous cloth masks stopping viruses.

My side is of history is laughing babies.  Your side of history is selling aborted baby parts on the open market.

My side of history is the Sistine Chapel and Monet’s water lilies.  Your side of history is an inverted crucifix in a bottle of urine.

My side of history is construction.  Your side of history is deconstruction.

My side of history is civilization.  Your side of history is nihilism.

And, MOST OF ALL:

My side of history is liberty.  Your side of history is tyranny.

Muslims have destroyed so much ancient and Christian history in the Middle East, it's actually surreal.

They do everything they can to erase any trace of non-Islamic heritage, wherever they go.

Why doesn't the UN address this ⬇️

What the return of students to elementary school in Gaza looks like..

[UN Watch @UNWatch]

🇺🇳 António Guterres: “The scale of killing in Gaza is unlike anything I've witnessed in my years as Secretary-General.”

FACT-CHECK: ❌
Under Guterres's watch since 2017:
🇸🇾 Syria: 120,000+ killed
🇸🇩 Sudan: 150,000+ killed
🇪🇹 Ethiopia: 162,000+ killed
🇾🇪 Yemen: 200,000+ killed

[Jim Leightner @LeightnerJim]

Why are California and New York so opposed to allowing women the "choice" of saving the life of their own baby, if they change their mind regarding an abortion? Why do those states insist mothers must kill their babies against their will?

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

The International Criminal Court seeks to become the unaccountable arbiter of a new global law — empowered to prosecute and arrest our citizens at will and existentially threaten American sovereignty.

We will teach the ICC the full meaning of American resolve.

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Donald Trump at the UN just demanded the IMMEDIATE resignation of globalist International Criminal Court (ICC) members

Then he CALLED OUT the globalists for ignoring the persecution of Christians

I VOTED FOR THIS.

"I mean, Christians are being persecuted all over the world. It's not even believable. I never thought I'd say it, but it's been happening for a long time. So this is persecution of Christians who are the crimes of the world's most repressive regimes. Yet, they want America to open up our borders to gangs and criminals from world's most dangerous places."

"I call on all nations that are members of the ICC to officially resign from this rogue institution immediately."

"We will NEVER allow U.S. service members or anyone else to be investigated or given show trials by an anti-American tribunal with no jurisdiction over us, or an evil group of people."

"It is equally unacceptable that with all the genuine atrocities in the world, the UN's top human rights officials spend their time criticizing the United States for protecting our children from transgender mutilization and transgender insanity and enforcing our immigration laws."

One of his best moments ever.

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 WOW! It's been CONFIRMED that the "spontaneous" anti-ICE agitators waving Mexican flags in Austin TX over the weekend have MAJOR FUNDING and leftist NETWORKS behind it

One of the involved groups previously sent a delegation to COMMUNIST CUBA 🤯

"The Party for Socialism and Liberation put out a call...GET TO AUSTIN, BE ON THE STREETS...critics would say that many of the protestors, definitely the network, acts as a trojan horse for malign foreign influence based in Shanghai."

By now, we all knew it!

It's NOT organic. IT'S PAID!

They want us to look at the images and videos, and think it's grassroots anti-ICE support. It's not. And that's another reason why it always looks the SAME, and they execute similar tactics

Whether it's Austin, LA or Minneapolis.

@AsraNomani just exposed it all. They can't hide!

[The Patriot Oasis™ @ThePatriotOasis]

🔥🚨 JUST NOW — Vance just explained HOW the Obamacare fraud actually worked

One ring. 40 brokerage agents. 50,000 people stuffed onto the exchange.

Some maybe real. Most not eligible — no citizenship, no income, and a pile of them “quite literally didn’t even exist.”

The system paid brokers to get rich enrolling ghosts in a program meant for American citizens.

“This was a scandal.”

Oz, Andy Ferguson, Secretary Kennedy, the President — and it is stopping.

750,000 cut off today. 🔥

[Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok]

DHS just put out a fact sheet DEBUNKING the media’s lies about the ICE shooting in Texas

The left literally lie about everything.

This is what the media doesn’t want you to see!👇🏻

CLAIM: ICE refused to remove the bullet from the illegal alien’s body.
FACT: This is false. ICE does not and would not advise, nor be the authority on, a medical procedure for an illegal alien at a hospital.

CLAIM: The illegal alien had a valid work permit.
FACT: This is false. The illegal alien’s work permit expired in 2025. Furthermore, a work permit does NOT grant legal status.

CLAIM: The illegal alien was ordered removed in absentia.
FACT: Yes. This is why aliens must show up to their removal proceedings. Legal obligations do not end because someone’s address changed.

CLAIM: This illegal alien is here legally.
FACT: This is false. This person is in the U.S. illegally. He entered illegally under the Biden Administration. The illegal alien had no valid work permit, had no protective status, and had a final order of removal from a Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge.

CLAIM: This illegal alien has received no pain medication.
FACT: This is false. This illegal alien is receiving medical care around the clock, including pain medication.

CLAIM: The illegal alien has been forced to sleep on the floor.
FACT: This is false. This alien was released from the hospital and arrived at the detention facility just a few hours later, where he slept on a bed. Aliens in ICE custody receive a higher standard of living than most prisons that hold U.S. citizens.

CLAIM: This illegal alien was indiscriminately targeted by ICE.
FACT: This is false. This illegal alien was the subject of a targeted vehicle stop. What makes someone a target for immigration enforcement is whether or not they are illegally in the U.S.

CLAIM: That ICE needs to get out of Austin.
FACT: This is false. ICE will not be slowing down nor leaving Austin. DHS is tasked with enforcing the laws passed by Congress. We do not pick and choose which laws to enforce or where to enforce them. We will continue to enforce our nation’s laws.

I stand with ICE! 🇺🇸

[Clyp Keeper @DGrayTexas45]

Why does ABC have a “News” Department? They do NOT report “News” they SELECT what to report on.
1- ABC Killed the Epstein story in 2016
2- ABC Killed the COVID lab leak story
3- ABC killed the Biden mental acuity story.
4- ABC paid Trump $15 Million to settle their defamation case.
I don’t understand how any trusts anything the MSM “reports”

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 BREAKING UPDATE: The indictment has been RELEASED of ex-US Postal Service worker Damon Matai Seei throwing away hundreds of mail-in ballots into THIS DUMPSTER in Utah during the 2026 primary

MAIL-IN IS NOT SECURE. PERIOD.

He's accused of throwing these ballots away before voters even receive them

That just goes to show how EASY it is for corrupt workers to disrupt our elections if they want to sway the results

And it's EXACTLY why we need stringent controls on mail-in ballots, if we are even keeping it in the first place.

Chicago Public Schools are emptying out fast, with some buildings operating at just two percent capacity. Families aren't just fleeing the city's high cost of living; they are escaping a broken education system that prioritizes radical political activism over teaching kids basic math and reading.

Pastor Corey Brooks breaks down the real crisis that city leaders and the Chicago Teachers Union refuse to confront. It’s time to stop funding failure, embrace true school choice, and put parents back in charge of their kids' futures.

WHO WILL PUT THEIR NAME ON THIS?

For the first time in the history of Woodlawn, our community is getting its own Aquatic Center.

The pool is being built. The vision is real. But we need one person, family, foundation or company to help us finish it and open the doors.

The naming opportunity: $3 MILLION.

This isn’t about putting a name on a wall.

It’s about putting a name on opportunity.
A name on safety.
A name on a place where thousands of children can learn to swim.
A name on something that could literally save a child’s life.

Black children ages 10–14 drown in swimming pools at dramatically higher rates than white children. In too many communities like ours, children simply never get the opportunity to learn.

We are going to change that in Woodlawn.

Somewhere out there is the person or organization who can make this happen. I may not know them—but YOU might.

So I’m asking everyone who sees this:

PLEASE SHARE THIS POST.

Share it with a CEO.
Share it with a philanthropist.
Share it with a foundation.
Share it with someone who wants their legacy attached to changing generations.

We have come too far to stop now.

$3 million finishes the Aquatic Center and helps fund its first year of operation.

Who will step forward and help us make history?

Let’s find them. SHARE THIS until it reaches the right person.

Listen to North Korean defector Yeonmi Park explain how her grandparents were promised much of what Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America are promising today:
- Free healthcare
- Free housing
- Free education
- A government that will take care of everyone

In return, they surrendered their freedom.

Tyranny rarely arrives looking cruel. It arrives smiling, speaking softly and promising compassion.

Liberals, I beg of you, don’t listen to conservatives if you don’t want to.

Listen to the North Korean defector.

It will not be different this time.

This is how it begins.

Yeonmi Park : This North Korean explains how communism starts.

Brainwashing students.

Listen to every word.

[Dane @UltraDane]

After escaping one of the most brutal regimes in Asia, North Korean defector, Yeonmi Park, explains how she was robbed in Chicago by black women in front of her son, and was called "racist" for calling the authorities.

[Sovey @SoveyX]

Conservative by Blood.

My grandparents survived the Korean War, not because life was merciful, but because geography drew a thin line between freedom and a prison with no walls.

I think of Yeonmi Park. She is not a distant cousin. She could have been me. I could have been her. If the border were drawn differently, my life would be measured in inches of height lost, pounds of flesh missing, and years stolen by famine.

This is not an abstract policy debate. It is bone, marrow, and memory. It is the reason my conservatism is not a hobby, a hashtag, or a choice. It is survival encoded in DNA.

So when you tell me you “hate communism,” I ask: do you know what communism means? Do you know the silence of a church outlawed, the emptiness of a child’s stomach, the weight of a government that tells you your soul does not belong to Christ but to the Party?

If you truly care about humanity, you cannot flirt with Marxist dreams. You cannot soften tyranny with new names. Communism is not theory. It is graves without markers. It is families broken by borders. It is a people who look like me, but live as shadows of who they should have been, if they live at all.

And if words aren’t enough, listen to Yeonmi Park. She tells how in North Korea, people ate rats who had eaten the flesh of surgery’s failed and forgotten a cycle of hunger so dark, it devours even the dead.

That is communism.
That is why I am conservative by blood.
And the blood remembers.

So when liberals approach me at work and expect me to fall in line just because I’m not white, it takes every fiber in my being not to be violent.

They don’t know what they’re talking about. They don’t know what they want. They don’t know how this ends.

I do.
History does.

I remember my ancestors.
I know what they endured.
It is not a hard decision.
Their struggle was not about transgenderism,
not about late term abortions.

It was about life itself.
About real freedom.
And it is the easiest decision in the world.
