[Chief Rosario “Pete” Vasquez @USBPChief]

EL PASO, TX- Last week, USBP agents, alongside Texas DPS Special Operations, intercepted three illegal aliens who crossed into the U.S. illegally and loaded into a vehicle. The car sped off and was stopped with a vehicle immobilization device- all four passengers bailed out of the car and attempted to flee on foot. The passengers complied to agent commands ultimately giving up, but the driver refused. She bolted leaping off a barrier in a desperate attempt to flee. The driver was transported to a medical facility and now faces state charges for smuggling of persons. Two illegal aliens will be charged as inadmissible aliens and one with felony illegal re-entry.

Tortured Warrior IV: Stonewall Jackson

The Torment
Jackson’s childhood was marked by loss and hardship. His father died when he was two. His mother died when he was seven. He was passed from relative to relative, growing up poor, awkward, and alone. At West Point he struggled badly, nearly failing out in his first year. He was mocked by classmates as odd, stiff, and slow — a boy out of place, marked by grief and isolation.

The Breaking Point
Jackson clawed his way through the Academy, studying late into the night. His effort was so relentless that he memorized whole texts to compensate for his weakness. He graduated near the bottom of his class, but by sheer will he survived. His early career was unremarkable, his demeanor strange, and few saw promise in him. He might have been remembered only as a peculiar, minor officer with no legacy.

The Transcendence
Yet when the Civil War erupted, the awkward boy became the lion of the Confederacy. At First Manassas he stood firm under fire, earning the immortal name “Stonewall.” He marched his men through the Shenandoah Valley with unmatched brilliance, defeating larger armies again and again. His name became legend, his maneuvers studied to this day.

The tortured warrior shows that even the orphan mocked for his strangeness can transform torment into genius. Jackson’s scars became his resolve, and his resolve became his legacy.

Yesterday, @SecDuffy announced the New York Penn Station “Transformation” project will begin construction at the end of 2027.

@AMTRAK is being awarded with $43 million in federal grants to help transform the station into a world-class transit hub worthy of New York City!

Tortured Warrior III: Sam Houston

The Torment
Houston’s life began in hardship. His father died when he was thirteen, leaving the family in debt and despair. Restless and wounded, young Sam fled his home and lived among the Cherokee, taking their ways as his own. He returned to white society but never fit neatly within it. As a young officer he was brave but reckless, wounded near death at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. Later, as governor of Tennessee, he married — and within weeks his wife left him in scandal. He resigned in disgrace, humiliated, and fled back into Cherokee exile.

The Breaking Point
In exile, Houston’s life spiraled. He drank heavily, wore native dress, and sank into despair. His enemies mocked him as a man broken by failure, an outcast unworthy of command or honor. He might have remained a forgotten exile, lost to history, a man consumed by shame and whiskey.

The Transcendence
But destiny called him west. In Texas he found renewal. He commanded the ragged Texian Army against Santa Anna. At San Jacinto he won a stunning victory, securing Texan independence. Twice he was President of the Republic of Texas, later a U.S. Senator, and finally Governor. Though scarred by scandal and haunted by exile, he rose from disgrace to shape the destiny of a nation.

The tortured warrior is proof that even the cast off and humiliated can be reborn. Sam Houston’s life showed that from exile and ridicule can rise the savior of a people.

In the summer of 2020, after months of keeping Americans from seeing their loved ones, going to school or earning a living, the CDC said joining large social justice protests was more important than preventing the spread of COVID.

The national media is a willing participant in a child murdering mass shooter's gender delusion. They are a partner.

[Cynical Publius @CynicalPublius]

Periodically I'll see some lefty police officer or other LE opine on how average civilians should not be carrying concealed firearms, have "large capacity" magazines, etc.

I imagine there are many people who will say to themselves "Oh he has seen some stuff, he knows what he is talking about."

The problem is he hasn't seen ENOUGH STUFF.

Go hang around Afghanistan or Iraq for a while to see some stuff that will have you and your family heavily armed and carrying always.

Civilization is not the ordinary nature of humankind. Too few understand this.

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

Here’s what I can’t understand…

If you’re a member of the media and a demonic monster, who happens to think they are the opposite sex, shoots up a school and kills little kids, why would you want to honor their pronouns? Why would you want to honor any of their wishes at all?

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

I’m motivated to do the exact opposite of whatever he wanted.

Listen to every word of this of this from WH Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller exposing Democrat election theft through mass mail-in ballots:

“Mass, anonymous mail-in voting is the single greatest abuse of voting in any democracy in the world today.”

Thanks for this Brother! Well said.

This guy is a weirdo larping as a Senator, even though there is no senator for DC. He has less authority in congress than the cashier at the gift shop.

The part of the Minneapolis trans mass sh—ter’s manifesto I find most revealing is where he discusses his agony and regret at learning there is no magic wand, technology or surgery that can make him a real girl.

He turned that pain into nihilism. And rage
