There is a reason history matters.

Lenin didn’t take over Russia overnight. He first took over his party.

He energized young activists. He attacked moderates in his own movement as sellouts. He demanded ideological purity. He promised free everything, demonized business, divided society into oppressors and oppressed, and insisted the existing system was beyond reform, it had to be fundamentally transformed.

Sound familiar?

Today, @ZohranKMamdani and the @DemSocialists aren’t trying to win over the Democratic Party, they’re trying to replace it. Primary by primary, incumbent by incumbent, they’re pulling the party further toward government control, wealth redistribution, and anti-capitalist policies.

History doesn’t repeat itself exactly, but it often rhymes.

Every New Yorker who believes in free enterprise, public safety, fiscal responsibility, and the American Dream should be paying attention.

Political movements don’t transform institutions overnight. They do it one election at a time.

[I Meme Therefore I Am 🇺🇸 @ImMeme0]

Hugo Chávez, like Zohran Mamdani, vowed to smash entrenched elites, redistribute wealth, and end poverty through bold socialist programs.

Result in Venezuela? Roughly 8 million people, a full quarter of the population, fled the country in desperation from hyperinflation, shortages, and collapse.

Yet fans of Mamdani cheer the same playbook for NYC, convinced this time socialism will magically deliver in the world’s financial capital, despite its spectacular failure just hours away by plane.

History isn’t a suggestion. It’s a warning.

In just under a minute, Scott Jennings delivered a masterful breakdown of why Republicans are winning the argument heading into the midterms.

Kaitlan Collins was forced to sit there and listen to every word of it.

JENNINGS: “Look, gas prices are not up. They’re down. Below $4 a gallon nationally, oil is trading at $71 a barrel.”

“We don’t run the gas price tracker on the screen anymore for a reason. You know, I mean, it’s because it’s a non-story.”

“The pool was vandalized. You keep bringing up the pool. It was vandalized by people who were so broken brained about our politics, they went out there and vandalized the pool. It’s in the court documents, which you can read yourself today.”

“And as it relates to cost, the Republicans cut taxes. Working people all over this country got major tax refunds. We have a booming job market. We have a stock market that’s up.”

“Right now, we have an economy that’s on the upswing because of Republican policies. And we’ve got insane Democrats winning primaries, promising socialism all over this country.”

“Those are the facts and that’s the argument that will be carried to the election.”

[Robby Starbuck @robbystarbuck]

Democrats have reached such an extreme that they’re electing someone to Congress who straight up wants to "eradicate" America. And not only does she believe this but she founded an activist organization to collapse America from inside. This should be a MASSIVE political scandal.

Mamdani publicly mourned “journalist” Ahmed Wishah.

Ahmed Wishah was actually a sniper for an islamic terrorist org who kiIIed Americans.

A Muslim woman in a hijab just said that “America deserved 9/11” and won her primary in NY. That’s what the Democrat party has become.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

Multiple people, including a former US Olympian, have now been arrested for
vandalizing the newly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool

They were caught peeling the lining off the pool in an attempt to sabotage the renovation

In addition to this, there was a 250-foot knife gash, other liberals poured “corrosive and destructive chemicals,” into the pool, others dumped algae trying to get more algae to grow

Keep in mind the $14 million renovation is part of America 250 celebrations. Trump is just trying to make the location beautiful for everyone to enjoy

Democrats hate America

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

Big news last night on CNN! I learned that for 1.6 billion years, algae was completely undefeated in warm stagnant pools...until Obama personally cured it with "science."

You really do learn something new every day. 🤣

[Selene Mariposa @Selene_Mariposa]

The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.

And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.

Here is what they are discovering:

Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.

Then they found the grocery stores.

Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.

The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.

They finally understand why we do not have trains.

We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.

Why would we need trains.

The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.

Welcome to America.
Everything is free, enormous, air conditioned, comes with chips, and has five grocery stores within a mile that will sell you any cut of any animal you have ever imagined.

Write that down. 🦋

Caller: "A lot of people think Donald Trump is kind of low IQ and stupid."https://t.co/ESVIbLBGJb

Stephen A. Smith: “I used to talk to him for years before he was ever running for president. Folks didn’t call him stupid then. When he was on Oprah Winfrey show and he was friends with Whoopi Goldberg and others, people weren’t calling him dumb then."

"A matter of fact, people was asking him if he would ever run for office because they thought he was smart and they thought he was bright."

The US soccer team will also do this when they play in Seattle on Friday. The number of American sports media who run propaganda for anti-American perspectives is at an epidemic level.

@Variety There may never be a less self-aware statement made in human history.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

1) The US already collects FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS OF TAX REVENUE A YEAR. The idea that you need to collect even more taxes — when you parasites already confiscate the equivalent of Elon’s entire net worth five times over, every year — is lunacy. Stop wasting billions of dollars a month of stupid bullshit. How about that for an idea?

2) We do not need more children in taxpayer funded daycare centers. Our goal should be precisely the opposite of that. We need more women at home raising their kids.

[Tim Pool @Timcast]

we are a country where our president tries to clean and repair a national monument and half the country insults him and tries to block it

what the ever living fuck is wrong with these people
