Austin Metcalf is dead.

Let’s stop dancing around the obvious.

Austin Metcalf received the death penalty.

Karmelo Anthony received 35 years.

One of them lives.
One of them gets a gravestone.

Save the faux outrage.

The real victim in this case is NOT the convicted killer.

The real victim is the young man who will never come home again and the family that will spend the rest of their lives grieving a loss that can never be undone.

This was a track meet.

A place for competition, teamwork, and sportsmanship.

NOT violence.
NOT murder.

And spare us the racial narratives.

Murder is wrong regardless of the race of the victim or the perpetrator. Any decent society should be able to agree on that.

Austin Metcalf lost everything.

His family got a life sentence of grief.

And while some are busy turning this tragedy into a racial debate, the Metcalf family is looking at the empty chair at the dinner table and remembering who actually paid the highest price.

Austin Metcalf got the death penalty.

Never forget that.

We all accept that John Thune is a Trojan Horse for the Uniparty. What is most discouraging is the utter contempt the Republicans have for their 77,000,000 supporters who voted for President Trump’s agenda. Not even five Senators will honor the will of their own people.
🤮the GOP

[Reverend Jordan Wells @WellsJorda89710]

🚨 I’m a Black man, a proud conservative, and a follower of Jesus Christ.

When I see protesters outside the Collin County Courthouse chanting “FUCK WHITE LIVES!” after Karmelo Anthony’s sentencing for murdering Austin Metcalf, my soul grieves.
This isn’t justice. This isn’t “community.” This is demonic hatred — plain and simple. All lives are made in the image of God. Every single one. Black, White, Brown — doesn’t matter.

Celebrating the loss of any innocent life, or cheering on evil because of skin color, is straight from the pit of hell.
And here’s the truth they don’t want you to say out loud: When Black conservatives, Christians, or truth-tellers like me call this out, we get labeled “traitors,” “Uncle Toms,” or “betrayers of the community.”
Let them talk.

I’d rather be disliked by some in my own community than stand before a Holy God and be found guilty of excusing evil, hating my neighbor, or twisting justice for racial points.
My allegiance is to Christ first — not color, not tribe, not political pressure.

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” (Isaiah 5:20)
I choose truth over tribe. Light over darkness. God over man.
Who else is tired of the hate? Drop a 🙏 if you stand for real justice — not skin color.

Sheryl. Your article exemplifies the biased reporting we have come to expect from you and @nytimes. It was unfair, inimical, and inaccurate. All one needs to refute your argument is to glance at my publicly available calendar and to review my unprecedented list of accomplishments on a wide range of issues, all of which I drove. You evidently never undertook these foundational due diligences. Why let facts obscure a good story?

You fault me for missing a couple of monthly counselor meetings. However, I meet one-on-one with my counselors every day to decide policy and strategy. We schedule the monthly meetings to give the divisions a chance to keep each other informed about HHS-wide policies with which I’m already intimately familiar. Had you read my calendar, you would have seen that I have back-to-back meetings all day, every day, with both career and political staff, with my counselors and with outside stakeholders, interspersed with press conferences and other policy announcements.

I am knowledgeable and active on every issue in every division of my department, and I always make the final decisions. I meet with the principals at FDA, NIH, CDC, and my senior counselor every morning, something, I’m told, is unprecedented in HHS history. I try to get out of the office between 4:30 and 6:00 PM, so that I can spend three hours, in quiet, responding to emails. I normally work until 11 PM every night, mostly on phone calls to staff.

In order to prove your preconceived case for my disengagement, you quote anonymous employees, some of whom I fired or who quit to avoid being fired. You also deceptively quote HHS employees without identifying whether they were among those I fired, thereby depriving your readers of the opportunity to make an independent judgment about their credibility.

I came into this job to change the culture of a broken agency that has presided over the worst decline in public health in American history. Of course I fired people—lots of them! It's an easy task for even the laziest journalist, to comb that flotsam and jetsam for malevolence toward the Trump administration. And of course, this species of journalist will always be able to find disgruntled individuals among the 70,000 employees of the Department from whom to cherry pick "facts" to flesh out a preordained hit piece. All that is required for this brand of journalism is the ethical elasticity that you seem to have in spades. You had a preconceived thesis, and you set out to prove it. This is a widely accepted technique in journalism today, but I grew up in an era when it would not have been tolerated by the New York Times.

Ultimately, God puts us all on this earth to search for existential truths. I've tried to instill this mission at HHS by implementing gold standard research to end the regime of politicized science that COVID exposed to the American public. There was a time that journalists were proud to be the fearless and uncompromising champions of truth. Standards have devolved, and journalism is dead. The Times now employs propagandists. Your capitulation to partisanship further compounds your journalistic challenges; since we all are aware of your predictable bias, we at HHS are unwilling to talk to you about the topics that are important. The fact that you have minimal access to decision makers leaves you covering trivia and relying on your own capacity for invention.

Btw. When I took this job, the building was empty. About 90% of the employees were not coming to work. I changed that, but your newspaper never covers my reforms. Nor did you cover the fact that my predecessor almost never showed up for work here during his four years in office. When we came in, there were still artifacts from the first Trump administration in many of our office drawers because no one showed up for work during the Biden years. Just as Rochelle Walensky spent her entire term as CDC Director in Cambridge, Xavier Becerra reportedly spent most of his term as HHS Secretary in California. (I live in California, but I’ve only been there once in fifteen months).

His only notable accomplishments here were losing 300,000 children, referred to HHS for custody and care, to human traffickers and drug runners, encouraging transgender surgeries, and disabling the entire program-integrity apparatus, allowing hundreds of billions of dollars of theft from my agency. I have set out to find the children Becerra lost. He is now the front-runner for the governor of California. These are not invented stories; they are genuine scandals that the Times will never cover, presumably, because the malefactors are Democrats.

Finally, you criticize me for spending time with the Indian tribes in Alaska. I consider that part of my job. I run the Indian Health Services, and I’ve had unprecedented success in transforming IHS from a backwater to a top priority for this department. I’ve made more trips to Indian country and to Indian health clinics and hospitals than any HHS secretary in history, and I’ve brought Indians into high positions on the sixth floor for the first time in agency history. This is another success story that the Times will never cover.

THE ENEMY WITHIN: Exposing the Treason of John Thune (THREAD 🧵)

John Thune is not a leader; he is an obstacle.

To dismantle the establishment, you must first identify its most useful assets. Senator John Thune is not a conservative warrior; he is the ultimate institutional shock absorber. In the Machiavellian framework, the most dangerous threat to a sovereign people is not the enemy who attacks from the front, but the courtier who smiles, wears your colors, and quietly unlocks the gates from within. Thune embodies this political betrayal. He is the quintessential Republican In Name Only (RINO)—a corporate appeaser perfectly engineered to absorb conservative outrage, dilute it into meaningless committee hearings, and ensure the globalist machinery operates without interruption. He offers the illusion of opposition while rubber-stamping the very policies destroying the American working class...

It Happened on J6
An Untold Story

The Story of Mae

I walked through an open door into the Capitol, spent 23 minutes airing my grievances and shouting “Stop the Steal!”, then left. Mission accomplished.

I lingered outside the Upper West Terrace Senate wing entrance for a while, the cold January air wasnt biting so hard any longer. A police line had formed while I was inside, their voices and the clatter of barriers echoing across the terrace, making it clear it was time to go. My hoarse voice chanted "U... S... A!" But it was time to go. I heaed a hoarse woman almost sounding drunk or drugged whisper her scream "Stop the Steal!" Listen to the video her voice still haunts me.

The police line was created quite the opposite of peacefulness that I experienced when I went in. I saw no law enforcement sayin' no, no barriers, and no audio warning... had anything ever told me not to enter. I had simply walked through those open doors to voice my concerns. Where I stood, the TV cameras weren’t present. And there was no violence — none at all, just the quiet tension of a what do we do now unorganized protest. Interesting the cameras were place where the riot was incited.

As I walked away from the police line and building, the massive crowd had thinned out across the lawn. There, kneeling in the grass, quite a ways out from the capitol was an elderly Asian woman. She was wailing and crying out in an Asian dialect, her arms rising and falling in rhythm as she rocked back and forth in a heavy down coat. It was like watching someone at the Wailing Wall — raw, desperate anguish.

Two younger Asian twenty-somethings hunched over her, trying to comfort her with worried expressions. She was clearly in great distress. The whole scene felt surreal and heartbreaking.

I walked up to them and asked what was wrong if I could help in any way.

They explained that she was their grandmother. She had come to America from Cambodia years ago to escape Communism. In that heartbreaking moment, she was crying out desperately: that Communism is coming to America...

Her name was Mae.

There was a large asian contingent at J6. They know. They've seen Communism first hand.

And in that moment, I understood — we are all Mae. Anyone who was at J6 that day would eventually face the same persecution I faced and that Mae faced as she fled from Communist Cambodia.

No one is coming to save the USA from Communism disguised as Democratic Socialism.

God Bless the J6ers, especially Mae

@Handre Obvious we are being subject to manipulation. The fed is a global entity.
Increase interest rate to what, decrease inflation? Does not make sense. The Fed is not your friend!

🚨Can someone prove Conservatives actually have representation in Congress?

We fought a revolution over ‘Taxation without Representation’.

Today, we’re taxed and ignored.

The overwhelming majority of Americans support voter ID, yet Congress refuses to act.

Since Congress works for donors, lobbyists, and the Washington establishment, why are we the ones paying taxes?

Send the tax bill to their donors!

We trust to the level we think posting truth on X will make a difference.
D's Hate R's

P's Laugh all the way to their next term in office!
Politicians P's do not care what we think.
They do care how we vote... Or do they?
If they chose the primary candidates and mostly decide who will be the parties candidates. Then the elections are rigged from the start. What difference do honest elections make. The party has chosen for us.

This Democrat is the leader of the party that holds a Republican majority across the Executive and Legislative branches, including the Supreme Court of the United States.

In other words, if the Destroy America Act were up in Schumer’s Senate, it would have passed long ago.

If John Thune wanted the SAVE America Act to pass, he would have his domesticated dogs—Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Thom Tillis, and his daddy Mitch McConnell—on a leash. Guaranteed.

He is deliberately sabotaging the President of the United States.

[Rep. Wesley Hunt Press Office @RepWPH]

The Democrat Party has built an entire political machine on grievance.

They don’t solve problems.
They reopen wounds.

They don’t offer a vision for the future.
They sell resentment from the past.

Every election, it’s the same script:

“Racism.”
“White supremacy.”
“Jim Crow.”
“Democracy is dying.”

And when those talking points aren’t enough, they roll out their favorite accomplices… the media, activist groups, and organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center, to smear, label, and silence anyone who dares challenge their narrative.

Why?

Because fear is their currency.
Division is their strategy.
Outrage is their oxygen.

[Wesley Hunt @WesleyHuntTX]

Hey Jasmine…

Black pilot here.

I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.

I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.

Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.

Nobody lowered the standards for me.

Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”

That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.

Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.

I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.

And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.

They care whether the pilot is qualified.

Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.

And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.

I cannot believe the conversation I just had with George W. Bush’s cousin running for Governor in Maine. Jonathan Bush JUST WENT SCORCHED Earth Against…

- Maine being the #1 landing spot for Somalis in the country
- The Democrats using Maine as their Socialist Sandbox
- Drug addicts being shipped to Maine
- High Taxes
- Policies driving businesses out
- Rampant DEI

Maine is arguably one of the most beautiful states in the country, yet the Democrats have been treating it like their own personal garbage dump and sandbox to experiment with all their insane, socialist, and un-American ideas.

We cannot continue to allow the Democrats to destroy our country. 🇺🇸

[Wesley Hunt @WesleyHuntTX]

The Democrat Party can’t survive on results, so it survives on resentment.

That’s why SPLC entered the chat.

The left wants Americans obsessed with the past because they have nothing to offer for the future.

Every election is the same tired routine:

Divide us by race.
Scare us with apocalyptic predictions.
Convince us we’re enemies.

I’m not buying it.

America isn’t a collection of grievances.

It’s a nation of people who want freedom, opportunity, safe communities, and a better life for their children.

Reject the politics of division.
Reject the professional outrage merchants.

We’re not each other’s problem.

The people trying to keep us divided are.
