INSANITY: Alicia, a bartender in Huntington Beach, says California negates the benefit of President Trump's "No Tax on Tips" policy.

Although her tips are exempt federally, the state still considers them taxable income. California already has the HIGHEST income tax rate in the country—no more!

As governor, I'll provide real relief to working people by implementing "No Tax on Tips" at the state level.

🚨 JUST IN: Gov. Ron DeSantis confirmed that after he finalizes the new budget, the red state of Florida will have SLASHED SPENDING for 4 YEARS STRAIGHT…

…Florida will have a budget less than HALF the size of New York, despite being similar in population

…and the state rainy day fund WILL BE 100% FULL and more than 3X THE SIZE from 7 years ago

FLORIDA CRUSHES IT AGAIN! 🇺🇸 ☀️

All with NO INCOME TAX and impending slashing of property taxes. Imagine that.

Economist Thomas Sowell was once a Marxist, but now he advocates for free markets.

"What was your wake-up to what was wrong with [Marxism]?" @RubinReport asked him.

"Facts," Sowell replies.

Here’s why I admire Sowell:

“We are NOT a Christian nation!”
“Separation of church and state!”
“Benjamin Franklin was a deist!”

On this date, June 28, 1787, Benjamin Franklin delivered his famous “Prayer Speech” at the Constitutional Convention.

This is the one where Franklin, amid deadlocks and frustrations in the Convention, implored the delegates to begin sessions with prayer, acknowledging human limitations and seeking divine assistance. Here is the full transcript (from James Madison’s notes and standard historical sources, with minor spelling normalizations for readability):

Mr. President:
The small progress we have made after four or five weeks close attendance & continual reasonings with each other—our different sentiments on almost every question, several of the last producing as many noes as ays, is methinks a melancholy proof of the imperfection of the Human Understanding. We indeed seem to feel our own want of political wisdom, since we have been running about in search of it. We have gone back to ancient history for models of government, and examined the different forms of those Republics which having been formed with the seeds of their own dissolution now no longer exist. And we have viewed modern states all round Europe, but find none of their Constitutions suitable to our circumstances.
In this situation of this Assembly, groping as it were in the dark to find political truth, and scarce able to distinguish it when presented to us, how has it happened, Sir, that we have not hitherto once thought of humbly applying to the Father of lights to illuminate our understandings? In the beginning of the Contest with G. Britain, when we were sensible of danger we had daily prayer in this room for the divine protection.—Our prayers, Sir, were heard, & they were graciously answered. All of us who were engaged in the struggle must have observed frequent instances of a superintending providence in our favor. To that kind providence we owe this happy opportunity of consulting in peace on the means of establishing our future national felicity. And have we now forgotten that powerful friend? or do we imagine that we no longer need his assistance?

I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth—that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the sacred writings, that “except the Lord build the House they labour in vain that build it.” I firmly believe this; and I also believe that without his concurring aid we shall succeed in this political building no better than the Builders of Babel: We shall be divided by our little partial local interests; our projects will be confounded, and we ourselves shall become a reproach and byword down to future ages. And what is worse, mankind may hereafter from this unfortunate instance, despair of establishing Governments by Human wisdom and leave it to chance, war and conquest.
I therefore beg leave to move—that henceforth prayers imploring the assistance of Heaven, and its blessings on our deliberations, be held in this Assembly every morning before we proceed to business, and that one or more of the Clergy of this City be requested to officiate in that service.

I was raised learning the Bible. In adulthood, I began to go back and read the literary classics, only to find every great work was a shadow of the scriptures.

The Bible is the DNA, the source code of the West. People who don't know the Bible don't understand America.

New York is importing a 1,400-year-old blood feud.

While the city drowns in filth and chaos, Zohran Mamdani, a Shia activist pretending to be a politician, is proudly promoting Ashura in Manhattan.

Let’s stop pretending. Ashura is not a holy day of peace. It is an annual festival of mourning, rage, and revenge. It commemorates the day Shia’s founding saint, Imam Hussein, was massacred by Sunni Muslims in Karbala. To this day, many Shias hold Sunnis collectively responsible for that crime.

Now this ancient sectarian hatred is being openly celebrated in the streets of New York.

This is not diversity.
This is not cultural enrichment.

This is bringing one of the most violent and enduring conflicts in human history, the Sunni-Shia blood war, and planting it right in the middle of Manhattan.

New Yorkers are not required to host Islam’s 1,400-year-old civil war in their city.

Wake up.

Gavin Newsom is raising health care costs on working Californians, and it appears to violate Prop 35, which voters approved just two years ago.

Instead of making health care more affordable, Sacramento is hiking taxes on health plans to plug their budget hole.

I led a letter with @JayObernolte and the California Republican delegation demanding answers. Californians deserve better.

The moment Eli Sharabi, who was held hostage in Gaza, told the UN the truth.

"NO ONE in Gaza helped me. I was treated worse than animal. The civilians saw us suffering and they cheered our kidnappers. They were definitely involved."

Share this. The mainstream media won't.

The House Democrat leadership team needs to be asked a simple yes-or-no question:

Do they intend to put anti-American, USA-hating leftist radicals on House committees if they are elected next Congress?

These radicals who have ties to terrorist groups and have OPENLY SAID they want to:

-Abolish borders and immigration enforcement
-Grant mass amnesty, even to criminals and terrorists
-Decriminalize trans-prostitution
-Use taxpayer dollars for transgender surgeries
-Abolish prisons and defund the police
-Impose Medicare for All
-Abolish the Senate and replace the President and Supreme Court
-Eradicate America and Western civilization

The American people deserve to know.

[Katie Miller @KatieMiller]

Here's what @DOGE found the USAID money was being spent on:

• $4.8 million to Ukraine’s public affairs office in Kyiv to fund social media influencers.
• $2.1 million to Paraguay to “enhance” their border security.
• Ukrainian women-led designers to fly to the Paris Fashion Show.
• $2 million on transgender surgeries, hormone therapy, and gender-affirming care in Guatemala.
• $3 million to promote “girl-centric climate action” in Brazil.
• $25,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia.
• $32,000 in Peru for a comic book featuring a “Trans hero” to tackle social and mental health issues.
• $20,000 for a DEI-promoting drag theater show in Ecuador.
• $20 million for a new Sesame Street show in Iraq.
• $6 million to boost “sustainable tourism” in Egypt—plus $50 million for Tunisia’s tourism.
• $87.9 million to help Afghans “farm”—which just happened to include poppy fields.
• $70,000 for a live musical event promoting Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility in Ireland.
• Over $54 million funneled to EcoHealth Alliance—the group linked to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the likely origins of COVID.
• $15 million to Taliban-controlled Afghanistan for oral contraceptives and condoms.

🚨Xavier Becerra’s corrupt Sacramento machine just voted to increase California health care costs by an average of $400 per family.

What an insult to working people already struggling to pay their bills!

Gavin Newsom’s new software tax goes way beyond corporate softwares, California Democrats are going to tax everything

They expect to make over $2 billion per year from this new tax, “They now define pre-written software as everything from Microsoft Office, Gmail accounts, Android operating systems — it has a computer, it has pre-written software. California is now going to tax that. Wow”

I put together a list to give you an idea of how far this goes

• Microsoft Office / 365 subscriptions
• Gmail / Google Workspace
• Slack
• Workday
• QuickBooks / Intuit products
• Adobe Creative Cloud / Acrobat
• Android operating system licenses (in applicable contexts)
• Cloud-based CRM/ERP systems
• Accounting/financial software (SaaS versions)
• Project management tools (e.g., Asana, Monday. com)
• Antivirus/security software (digital downloads/subscriptions)
• Productivity suites (e.g., Zoom, Teams)
• Database software (pre-written)
• Graphic design/photo editing tools (cloud)
• Operating system access/subscriptions (where pre-written)
• Enterprise software platforms
• HR/payroll SaaS tools
• Marketing automation software
• Collaboration/communication apps
• Many mobile/desktop apps sold digitally

So basically everything

Three CRUCIAL fentanyl bills died in committee.

They would have:
1. Penalized dealers whose customers die/face injury
2. Cracked down on social media drug sales
3. Increased penalties for large fentanyl quantities.

Yet, Bonta stayed silent.

[A Midwestern Doctor @MidwesternDoc]

This teacher-turned-cognitive scientist shared a disturbing reality that left the room stunned.

“Our kids are LESS cognitively capable than we were at their age.”

Every previous generation outperformed its parents since we began recording in the late 1800s.

So, what happened?

Screens.

Dr. Jared Horvath explained:

“Gen Z is the first generation in modern history to underperform us on basically every cognitive measure we have, from basic attention to memory, to literacy, to numeracy, to executive functioning, to EVEN GENERAL IQ, even though they go to more school than we did.”

“So why? … The answer appears to be the tools we are using within schools to drive that learning (screens).”

“If you look at the data, once countries adopt digital technology widely in schools, performance goes down significantly, to the point where kids who use computers about five hours per day in school for learning purposes will score over two-thirds of a standard deviation LESS than kids who rarely or never touch tech at school. And that’s across 80 countries.”

But screens aren’t just decimating learning and making new generations less intelligent than the ones before them.

They’re doing something far worse. THREAD🧵
