Loving my family, Believer, Realist

[Flopping Aces @FloppingAces]

America’s ruling class has performed another miracle.

They took the most basic truths in human civilization ... crime needs punishment, borders need enforcement, schools should teach, welfare should be temporary, families matter, merit matters, and taxpayers should not be looted by professional parasites ... and somehow rebranded all of that as “extremism.”

Incredible work, really.

Apparently, a “compassionate” society is one where the violent repeat offender gets another chance, the victim gets a candlelight vigil, the taxpayer gets the bill, the schoolkid gets passed along illiterate, the fraudster gets a grant, the NGO gets another contract, the illegal alien gets services, and the working American gets told to shut up and be more inclusive.

What a beautiful system.

Soft justice did not stay in the courtroom. It metastasized. It became soft borders, soft schools, soft parenting, soft welfare, soft standards, soft men, and soft bureaucrats explaining why every obvious solution is “too harsh.”

Lock up predators? Cruel.
Deport illegals? Hateful.
End generational welfare? Lacking empathy.
Punish fraud? Complicated.
Restore merit? Problematic.
Teach kids to read? Probably colonialism by Tuesday.

A serious country protects the innocent from the guilty. A decaying country protects the guilty from consequences and makes the innocent finance the experiment.

That’s America’s real crisis.

Not poverty. Not “root causes.” Not another fake expert panel.

Consequences.

We stopped imposing them on the people destroying the country, so now the country imposes them on everyone else.

Here is one of the ways things get more expensive for middle class and lower middle class America.

The vast majority of taxes are paid by the top earners here. When that money is just lost or given to people or efforts that are not meant to enrich actual tax payers and services (police, fire, road paving, park maintenance, etc) your quality of life dips.
You will pop tires in potholes, you will not be able to take your kids to the park, you will not have enough police to answer your calls, you will not have enough firemen to put out your fires, your sales tax will increase, and the cost of everything you need rises in order to cover the “tax the rich” efforts placed on successful businesses and individuals.

Politicians are stealing from your quality of life. It’s not just “tax the rich” and that won’t affect you. It’s “take the tax dollars and lose or give it away.” It won’t flow down to you and your services like it should.
And it happens with the passing of bills like this that few people even hear about.
Careful who you vote for. Like @spencerpratt says, “We have the money. It’s just being stolen.”

1. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW PHOTO I.D. (IDENTIFICATION!).

2. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP.

3. NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS (EXCEPT FOR ILLNESS, DISABILITY, MILITARY, OR TRAVEL!).

4. NO MEN IN WOMEN’S SPORTS.

5. NO TRANSGENDER MUTILIZATION SURGERY ON OUR CHILDREN.

Bernie Sanders has spent half a century in government.

Half. A. Century.

During that time the national debt exploded. Housing became less affordable. College became more expensive.

Healthcare became more expensive.

And now the man who helped oversee the system wants Americans to believe the problem is Elon Musk. The irony is almost impressive.

Every time Bernie’s solution fails, his answer is more of the same solution.

More taxes. More spending. More government. More control.

At what point does the architect of the problem stop pretending he’s the outsider?

Elon built companies.

Bernie built a political career.

One creates wealth.

One campaigns against the people who create it.

And somehow the barnacle told the builder, that he is the problem.

Medicare fraud is a trillion dollar industry. Notice not one Democrat is trying to end this fraud and reallocate the money to serving the poor. That’s because they and their staff and friends and family are all in on it. Skimming and scamming.

[Jack Posobiec @JackPosobiec]

Every industry devoted to keeping the gravy train of homelessness tax dollars flowing had every incentive to block Spencer Pratt at all costs

You are seeing a machine in action

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

People don’t understand how many Republicans are disenfranchised with California fraud.

5 million Republicans live in California.

Their systematic disenfranchisement is a moral evil and civil rights violation.

[Cernovich @Cernovich]

Universal mail in ballots, can’t ask for voter ID, and can’t audit ballots. Calling this election legitimate is Soviet era slop. Truly embarrassing to be pushing it. Would be better to say nothing than to degrade one’s self in this way.

[Sandra Loftis @Sandra_G_Loftis]

@WallStreetApes True then, true now.👇

[Robby Starbuck @robbystarbuck]

You can’t have a democracy without voter ID.

Trying to is like running a bank that hands out cash to anyone who says they have an account or boarding a plane where the gate agent just takes your word that you bought a ticket.

80% of voters want it. If they weren’t cheating, they’d happily implement it so people always trusted the results. Conclusion: They’re cheating.

No one can convince me otherwise until we have voter ID in every state. Until then, they’re cheating in the states where they don’t have it and they have third world "elections" in name only.

True story.

PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT.

Illegals should not be voting in our elections. Not now. Not ever.

[Rep. Laurel Libby @laurel_libby]

There should be NO place for boys in girls’ sports.

[I Meme Therefore I Am 🇺🇸 @ImMeme0]

If Spencer Pratt loses, it won’t be to Nithya Raman, he’ll be losing to mail-in ballots and no voter ID.

It really is that simple.

[Steve Hilton @SteveHiltonx]

The election system in California is just another example of the incompetence of our state government. It's a joke just like everything else the Democrats have done to our state. We need change and we need a leader that will tackle these issues head on. ☀️👊

In-person voting with mandatory ID is the only way to save the Republic.

Anything else is a farce.

[A Gene Robinson @AlBuffalo2nite]

Watching this video makes my jaw clench.

Not because I see courage. Not because I see progress. It makes my jaw clench because I see a husband standing outside a women’s restroom while his wife is inside, and another person is demanding that he ignore what his own eyes can see.

Put Democrat politics aside for a moment and think about the people you love. Imagine your wife is in that restroom. Imagine it’s your daughter, your granddaughter, your mother, or your sister. Most husbands like us, aren’t going to start debating social theories at that moment. Their first instinct is going to be the same instinct men have had for thousands of years: protect the women they love.

That isn’t hatred. It isn’t fear. It’s responsibility.

What makes this video so powerful is that it exposes a much bigger disagreement taking place across the country. One side believes that biological reality determines who belongs in male and female spaces. The other believes that personal identity should be the deciding factor. Those are fundamentally different starting points, and that’s why these encounters keep happening.

The anger you’re seeing isn’t really about a restroom. It’s about whether ordinary people are still allowed to trust their own judgment, speak honestly about what they see, and protect the people they care about without being told they’re the problem.

Millions of Americans like me, have reached the point where they are exhausted by being told that common sense is offensive. They are tired of being told that protecting women is somehow controversial. They are tired of being pressured to deny what they believe is objectively true in order to avoid criticism.

That’s why videos like this resonate with so many people. They aren’t seeing a debate about a bathroom. They’re seeing a husband doing what husbands have always done: standing watch over the people entrusted to his care.

And for many Americans, the line gets drawn right there.

Not with my wife.

Not with my daughter.

Not with my family.

When the “experts” told us visiting grandma on her deathbed was civilizational suicide, but looting a footlocker with 42 strangers was essential to public health.

[Chris Martz @ChrisMartzWX]

If you think that our tax dollars are actually going where they're supposed to go, you are an idiot. Have you seen the state of our roads? Or schools? Imagine how much of a big government cuck that you have to be to be pro-more taxation.
