@Zayin_7_119 I visited SA in '74. I was 16. Beautiful, awesome land. Even though the apartheid was shocking to me, the people of all races were kind. It's tragic that there wasn't a better way to resolve the issues & bring peace & prosperity to all the peoples.
Everyone who wanted Paxton is proven right.
No patriot who loves his country would act this way once stripped of a lavish, 24 year career in the Senate.
For as much work as an article involves, you have to keep reposting it to make it worthwhile.
Help us, @realDonaldTrump, you are our only hope.
I know this is not the artistic style you want for our Nation's Capitol. Please help us avoid this appalling abomination of a memorial.
@TheBrancaShow@Timcast It is their cultural mindset. A few assimilate but it's several generations in & usually they keep bringing in their relatives so it never really stops. Our high trust society is based in the Bible & it's not their belief system so keep "India" alive here.
THE ENEMY WITHIN: Exposing the Treason of John Thune (THREAD 🧵)
John Thune is not a leader; he is an obstacle.
To dismantle the establishment, you must first identify its most useful assets. Senator John Thune is not a conservative warrior; he is the ultimate institutional shock absorber. In the Machiavellian framework, the most dangerous threat to a sovereign people is not the enemy who attacks from the front, but the courtier who smiles, wears your colors, and quietly unlocks the gates from within. Thune embodies this political betrayal. He is the quintessential Republican In Name Only (RINO)—a corporate appeaser perfectly engineered to absorb conservative outrage, dilute it into meaningless committee hearings, and ensure the globalist machinery operates without interruption. He offers the illusion of opposition while rubber-stamping the very policies destroying the American working class...
President @realDonaldTrump I just want to say thank you, as you know I’ve been in Washington, DC the whole week and I’ve never felt so safe in my life, it’s clean, it’s beautiful, it’s inspiring and it has been an honor to walk around this wonderful city…keep up the great work!
God Bless @POTUS and God bless America 🇺🇸
Kind regards from a grateful immigrant
USA. A gas station register. I was three cents short, and what happened next has quietly ruined my life.
The cashier did not sigh. She did not wait. She reached into a small dish beside the register, took three pennies, and paid my debt with them. "There you go, hon."
I asked whose coins those were.
"Take a penny, leave a penny," she said, pointing at a sign, as if those six words explained the dish, the store, and the entire country.
A tiny treasury. Open. Unguarded. By the door. Fed by anyone, for anyone. No ledger. No guard. No interest.
Let me be clear about what occurred: I, the head of an eight-hundred-year house, was bailed out at a gas station by an anonymous dish.
I could not sleep that night. A debt is a debt. The dish had stood for me. I would stand for the dish.
I returned the next morning with three pennies, plus one for honor. The cashier said I didn't have to do that. I returned the day after with five more. She said, "Sir, it's a penny dish." By Friday she had stopped explaining and simply waved when I came in.
A man does not ask three cents to be nothing. He returns four, and keeps returning.
The dish is now full. She says it has never been so full. Other customers have started adding to it — possibly out of confusion, possibly because a full dish invites fullness. Yesterday a man took two pennies and left a quarter. The economy of the doorway is booming.
I borrowed three cents. The debt was small.
The honor was not.
The cashier calls me "the penny guy" now. I came to this country with one name, eight hundred years old. I have since been Banana, and now the penny guy. I answer to all of them. Of course I answer to all of them.
Hey John Thune - We all know you’re a backstabbing RINO who works for the entrenched Deep State.
But even someone as corrupt as you should be able to see the election steal in LA and think “ok that’s too far”.
Pass Voter ID and restore some semblance of legitimacy to our elections.
Endless lies. I never thought defunding the Taliban would be this difficult. John Thune can hold a vote tomorrow on the No Tax Dollars For Terrorists Act if he wants to.
Thank you for pushing back, @timburchett.

USA. A diner. The waitress asked me how I want my eggs, and my mind went completely blank.
"How do you want your eggs, hon?"
Want. How do I WANT them. No one has ever asked me this. In my land, the egg arrives as the cook decrees, and you thank the egg, the cook, and your ancestors, in that order.
"Scrambled? Over easy? Sunny side up?" she offered, gently, the way one talks a man down from a roof.
The terms did not help. Over easy — over WHAT, easily? Easy for whom? Sunny side up — these people have named an egg after the dawn. Who does that. I needed time.
I have chosen battlefields faster than I chose those eggs.
She refilled my coffee and said she'd come back. It was the second refill. I had been deciding for nine minutes.
The man on the next stool leaned over. "Just say over easy, man. You can't go wrong."
"And if I CAN go wrong?"
"...it's eggs, buddy."
It's eggs. Eight hundred years of my family training itself to want nothing, and this man dismissed all of it with a fork in his hand. He was right. I will never tell him.
"Sunny side up," I declared, with the weight of a man choosing a path for life. "I will face the sun."
"You got it, hon."
The eggs came. Two small suns on a white plate, looking up at me. Golden. Ridiculous. Exactly what I wanted.
So THAT is what wanting feels like. I had to cross an ocean and hold up a breakfast line to learn it.
The man on the next stool got his check and left. "Good choice," he said.
I have never been more proud of anything.
A man does not ask the eggs to be simple. He only becomes a man who knows what he wants.
Tomorrow: over easy. I am almost ready.

My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us!
I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around.
I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it.
Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought.
We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!!
Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ??
Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity."
Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in.
When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided.
My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress.
Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country.
People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism.
Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism.
We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."
Hang on a minute…What?? Why is @ASU threatening to use eminent domain on this 89 year old man’s house that has been there longer than AZ has been a state? I feel a fist fight comin’ on👇
When they target one person for nefarious political persecution, the message is they can target us all. We need justice for the weaponization of government under Biden & we can’t even get a fund to compensate victims when the guilty should be behind bars.
Once again, the American people get screwed & the President’s own party was part of that. They continue to subvert his will & the will of the overwhelming majority of voters who elected him partly on this platform.
