Theo Von posed the most beautifully vulnerable testimony to Roman 7.
“Why is it so easy to do the things I don’t want to do, but a struggle to be who I want to be?” This is the nature of being human.
I'll always remember Chuck Norris as the man who changed the course of dodgeball history by casting the deciding vote that allowed Average Joes to play in the championship of the Las Vegas International Dodgeball Open where they upset the heavily favored Globo Gym Purple Cobras.
RIP. 🙏
It spins. The world changes. It turns. Each time it touches the sun and the moon, it takes a new shape. The one thing that does not change, is my powerlessness. It's turning. If fate is a millstone, then we are the grist. There is nothing we can do. So I wish for strength.
If Glenn Beck can use an AI George Washington to claim the father of our country would have wanted us to bomb Iran, how about I use THE REAL GEORGE WASHINGTON'S ACTUAL WORDS to figure out what he would have thought about the U.S. relationship with Israel:
A passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification....
And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens (who devote themselves to the favorite nation) facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation.
JUST IN: Tim Tebow shows senators a map of the United States showing every single location where someone is downloading, sharing, or distributing CSAM.
“We are losing the battle, and we are losing the war, and boys and girls are suffering for it…”
“Every red dot that is on there is someone that is downloading, sharing, or distributing [CSAM].”
“55% to 85% of them are also hands-on offenders, and we know that your average offender has thirteen victims in their lifetime.”
“The scale of harm right here in America is, to a certain extent, hard to comprehend, but that's why we're here.”
Investigative journalist Whitney Webb: "One of the main reasons for this coordinated global push to develop digital IDs is because it's deemed essential to... Agenda 2030."
"Digital IDs are not really a separate project from CBDCs... CBDCs and digital IDs are meant to go together. And without digital IDs, the CBDC digital finance system cannot exist."
"They have to know who you are. And so they want to have your wallet tied to a digital ID, and have that digital ID be mapped to your physical ID through the biometric data collection."
"If you don't participate in digital ID, you won't have a legally recognised identity, you won't have rights, you won't be able to access services without it."

Pensions weren’t stolen by capitalism. Governments underfunded and mismanaged them.
Savings weren’t taken by markets. Central banks devalued currency.
Jobs weren’t “sent overseas” by freedom. They were driven out by taxes, regulation, and protectionist deals.
Health care wasn’t robbed by markets. It was cartelized by law.
Education wasn’t dismantled by capitalism. It was monopolized by the state and hollowed out by bureaucracy.
Debt wasn’t imposed by voluntary exchange. It was engineered by political spending with no consent.
This isn’t an argument against capitalism.
It’s a list of harms caused by statism, lazily relabeled so no one has to confront the actual source.
