Constitutional conservative. Rush was right! The Great One is my spirit animal. Cutesy time is over. Read the Bible. It answers all of life's questions.
Think it's bad now.
Read Revelation. It's going to get a lot worse. We've now watched a blessed country fall to evil for turning it's back on God and celebrating evil.
Also read Psalm 73:17-20. This doesn't end the way the corrupt godless think it does.
Pray for revival.
@The_FJC Exactly.
Nobody is keeping you here.
As a matter of fact, I bet many would help foot the bill to send you back to whatever shithole country you came from.
Two former senior FBI officials, Nikki Cole Floris and Bradley Benavides, were taken into custody today on charges of allegedly lying to Congress about their involvement in the FBI’s investigations into Hunter Biden.
The charges stem from an ongoing investigation into the since-dissolved FBI Foreign Influence Task Force.
Floris led the FITF as a Deputy Assistant Director from mid-2019 through mid-2022. Benavides was the FITF Section Chief from mid-2019 through the 2020 election. Both testified that the FITF was not involved in the Hunter Biden investigations. Documentary evidence, contemporaneous communications, and witness accounts contradict their testimony.
Floris is also on record privately claiming to be “running a shadow government” during the 2020 election in her role on the FITF.
Lying to Congress by senior FBI officials strikes at the heart of our system. No one is above the law.
The FBI has already dismantled the corrupt CR-15 squad that engaged in political weaponization targeting their opponents, including President Trump.

On the morning of October 23, 1983, a Mercedes truck tore through concertina wire that surrounded the U.S. Marine headquarters and barracks building in Beirut, Lebanon. The driver accelerated by Marines at guard posts – Marines who had been prohibited from chambering rounds in their rifles - and crashed through sandbags stacked in front of the building. It came to a stop in the lobby. The subsequent explosion proved to be one of the largest non-nuclear detonations the FBI ever investigated. It claimed the lives of 220 Marines, 18 sailors, and three soldiers. 112 servicemen were wounded. Not since the invasion of Iwo Jima in World War II had the Marines lost so many men in a single day. A near-simultaneous bombing a few miles north killed 58 French paratroopers.
There would be no direct U.S. retaliation. In January 1984, the U.S. responded by designating Iran a state sponsor of terrorism. Then, after promises to the contrary, the U.S. withdrew from Lebanon, teaching Iran, its proxy forces, and terrorist organizations around the world that terrorism works.
For additional context on the bombing and the rescue efforts that followed, read TARGETED: BEIRUT – THE 1983 MARINE BARRACKS BOMBING AND THE UNTOLD ORIGIN STORY OF THE WAR ON TERROR.
“Beirut is not hell, but you can see it from here.” - Description common among U.S. service members in Lebanon
In Remembrance of Beirut
#OTD in 1983, a terrorist bombing at the Marine Barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, claimed the lives of 241 U.S. service members, including 220 Marines, serving as part of the Multinational Force in Lebanon.
On October 23, a suicide bomber drove a truck laden with explosives into the barracks where U.S. Marines were stationed on a peacekeeping mission. The attack devastated the building and became one of the deadliest days in Marine Corps History.
The Marines in Beirut were deployed to help restore peace and stability amid escalating violence in Lebanon. Despite the dangers they faced, they carried out their mission with courage, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to one another.
The Beirut bombing left a lasting mark on the #MarineCorps and the nation. We remember the lost lives, honor the wounded and survivors, and recognize the families and loved ones who continue to carry the weight of that day. Their sacrifice remains woven into the legacy of every #Marine who has answered the call to serve.
Today, we pause to remember the 241 American service members who never made it home and honor their courage, sacrifice, and devotion to duty.
They came in peace. They will never be forgotten.

October 23, 1983. A date forever etched in the hearts of United States Marines.
Forty-three years ago, a terrorist drove a truck loaded with explosives into the Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, killing 241 American service members, including 220 Marines, 18 sailors, and 3 soldiers.
They were sons, brothers, husbands, fathers, and friends. Young Americans who had answered their country’s call, never knowing they would never see home again.
For those of us who have worn the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor, Beirut is not just another tragic event in American history. Those were our brothers. We may never have met them, but we share a bond that neither time nor death can break.
Forty-three years have passed. Families have grown older, children have grown up without their fathers, and parents have gone to their graves still mourning their sons.
But I promise you one thing. The United States Marine Corps has not forgotten them, and we never will.
Rest peacefully, brothers. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
Semper Fidelis. Always Faithful.
I just caught up on some of the recent posts from @DataRepublican, and they’re chilling—not primarily because they outline a violent uprising, but because they reveal a strategy of manufacturing a constitutional crisis in which states declare the federal government illegitimate. What’s alarming is the sheer ignorance and hubris of the people treating this as a workable path. They appear to believe such a rupture can be contained or directed, yet they show little understanding of either American history or the practical consequences of delegitimizing the federal order.
The people driving this approach are largely led by academics who have never borne responsibility for real-world outcomes, military officers who couldn’t produce a coherent strategy to win a twenty-year war, and former intelligence officials whose records inspire little confidence. They seem prepared to sacrifice institutional stability—and the young idealists who would be drawn into the resulting chaos—while remaining safely removed from the fallout themselves.
What they fail to grasp is that the Constitution is not merely a set of rules that can be voided by state declaration. It is bound to the oaths of those sworn to defend it and to the habits of a population raised on the Bill of Rights. America is not Europe, China, or any other society in which a central authority can be nullified with limited resistance. Attempts to engineer a crisis of legitimacy will not remain a matter of legal posturing. They will collide with people who take their oaths seriously, and the resulting contest over authority is unlikely to stay bloodless.
The American Civil War remains the deadliest conflict in U.S. history. Roughly 2% of the population died—men, women, and children—in what was, by historical standards, a relatively conventional war fought between uniformed armies. Scaled to today’s population, that figure approaches 7.5 million dead. A modern breakdown in which states and the federal government treat one another as illegitimate would almost certainly be worse: a grinding conflict fought in neighborhoods, towns, and cities, where the line between friend and enemy would be unclear and ordinary life would become impossible. Anyone of consequence would carry a target, and trust would collapse.
This is not a call for violence. It is a plea to avoid the conditions that make violence probable. Many of us have seen what war actually does, and we understand the cost that would be imposed on the next generation because some believe their preferred political outcome can be forced by creating a crisis of legitimacy. Trump leaves office in two years. If the goal is to alter the constitutional order, the Framers already provided the mechanism for doing so. Use it. Do not manufacture a crisis that invites states to treat the federal government as illegitimate while others pay the price.
As Sherman put it: “It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell.”
I believe more Marxist left Democrats should have the commitment to their convictions that this brave man displays. He should be a trend setter not an outlier.
@elonmusk God, I wish I was useful and could work for Elon. Absolute American patriot. Fearless. Visionary. Inspirational.
I bet his employees are hella loyal to the man.
@realFishchaser It's infuriating that reciprocity has not been passed yet. I go through this stupid dance all the time. It only makes sense to a Marxist left Democrat that a lawfully owned and CCW permit shouldn't apply across the entire USA.
There is a little boy in Poland named Michael who only exists today because a 24-year-old American soldier from Staten Island stepped directly in front of a suicide bomber to save a man he barely knew.
If you want to know what real American heroism looks like, you need to know the name Staff Sergeant Michael Ollis.
It was 3:54 a.m. on August 28, 2013, at a forward operating base in Ghazni, Afghanistan. Most of the base was sleeping when a 3,000-pound car bomb ripped a massive hole through the eastern perimeter wall. Through the dust and the chaos, ten insurgents strapped with suicide vests poured into the compound.
Michael didn’t hesitate. After making sure his men were safe in a bunker, he ran directly toward the sound of the gunfire. He didn’t even have time to put on his protective equipment. Armed with only his rifle, Michael linked up with a Polish officer he had just met, Lieutenant Karol Cierpica.
Together, the two men stood shoulder-to-shoulder in the dark, fighting back the onslaught to protect the rest of the base. They killed eight of the attackers, and a ninth was shot after throwing a grenade. But then, from behind a row of shipping containers, the tenth bomber emerged.
As the terrorist charged them and detonated his suicide vest, Michael did the unthinkable. Without a second thought, the young man from Staten Island stepped directly in front of the blast, using his own body as a human shield to absorb the shockwave.
Michael was killed instantly. But because of his ultimate sacrifice, Karol Cierpica survived.
Karol eventually returned home to his family in Poland, carrying the unimaginable weight of a life bought by another man's blood. A couple of years later, Karol and his wife welcomed a beautiful, healthy baby boy.
They named him Michael.
Today, that little boy is a walking, breathing testament to the unbreakable bond of brotherhood and the sheer, unmatched courage of the American soldier. Michael Ollis was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor, but his true legacy isn't just a piece of metal—it's a father raising a son across the world, passing down the story of the American hero who gave him the ultimate gift of life.
Share this if you still believe in the American soldier, and if you believe the name Michael Ollis deserves to be remembered by every single person in this country.
@mattvanswol The nine are a bunch of punk-ass bitches.
The deputies should allow this young man to square off with them one at a time in their jail cells. I bet they wouldn't fair very well in a one in one fight.
🚨#BREAKING: A 17-year-old White boy is being HAILED AS A HERO after he STOOD UP TO BULLIES who were throwing food at a girl in his school cafeteria...
...and then NINE OF THEM began BEATING HIM on his way to his car
They could NOT knock him down and then ALL NINE WERE ARRESTED!!!!
This happened last week at Harmony High School in Osceola County, Florida.
He was sitting at lunch with his girlfriend when they saw a girl getting pelted with carrots.
Nobody was stepping in, so he did.
Two of the boys got in his face. He didn’t swing. He didn’t escalate, he stood his ground.
Right after school, he was walking to his car through the tunnel by campus when one teen hit him... and EIGHT more piled on.
NINE against ONE.
Video shows them throwing punch after punch to his face and head.
He went to the hospital and needed ELEVEN STITCHES to close his face.
His sister Brianna Bailey says he has never been able to tolerate bullies, or anyone being cruel to the people he loves.
When she saw the photo of his bloody face, she was shocked... then she found out WHY it happened.
“He stood his ground.”
Somebody filmed it, that video went straight to deputies.
They identified EVERY SINGLE ONE.
All NINE were arrested at the school, all NINE charged with aggravated battery and inciting a riot, and the school district says they’ve been EXPELLED.
The sheriff himself came out and said it plain: this young man is the brave one, and the ones who ganged up on him are the cowards.
Now people everywhere are calling him a HERO.
He’s recovering at home.
And his sister has one message for every kid out there: if you see someone getting bullied, stand up for them.
GOD BLESS this young man and GOD BLESS his family.
