If after Trump's big reveal of FBI sedition & China spying no perpetrators get arrested then Trump just recited his "strongly worded letter."

Buying time while failing to arrest Democrat felons euthanizes America. Suicide of non-enforcement.

We need arrests, not hostage videos.

[Pro America Politics @proamericapol]

Ready for this? The evidence CBS presents to fact check Trump is that communist China denies it.

I'm not kidding. And they conveniently have a pre-written denial from China ready.

So, not only did they not broadcast Trump's speech, but they were actively collaborating with the CCP beforehand.

Enemy of the people. 👇

Now do you see why we call January 6 the Fedsurrection?

They knew China helped them rig the 2020 election.

They knew Americans would be pissed off.

So they set a trap and waved them inside the Capitol so they could weaponize the DOJ to destroy peaceful protesters and install their autopen puppet.

Then they arrested Trump four times.

The Deep State must be destroyed.

Most people complaining about the casting in Nolan’s Odyssey don’t fully understand what they’re objecting to because it's deeper than they realize: As such, I'll explain.

The unease they feel runs deeper than superficial complaints about “realism” or skin tone. What they can't articulate is their objection to universalizing the particular; an error characteristic of philosophical liberalism.

The Odyssey is not a universal story. It is not a detachable “hero’s journey” that can be stripped of its cultural origins and modernized for contemporary audiences. Its power lies in its particularity. The audience must do the work of closing the gap; the text does not come to us.

The values that animate it, xenia (reciprocal guest-friendship), oikos (the household and its obligations), mētis (cunning intelligence), kleos (glory), and timē (honor), are not interchangeable with modern liberal abstractions. They are embedded in a specific ancient Greek moral and social world. They are not timeless “human themes” floating free of context.

This is why the Odyssey functions today primarily as an educational text rather than popular entertainment, as it once did. It belonged to the moral universe of ancient Greece. It does not belong to ours. Its value lies precisely in its alienness: it forces us to encounter a distinct way of thinking about justice, loyalty, hospitality, and human excellence.

When critics complain that an adaptation “isn’t realistic,” they are grasping for the most accessible language to express a deeper discomfort. What actually bothers them is the erosion of cultural fidelity; the required deracination for modern audiences stripping it of its required context, which in turn strips it of all of the value that it contains. A universal Odyssey has no value.

In attempting to globalize the Odyssey, they erase what remains of an already dead culture; killing even its ghost. Ancient Greece is gone, yet we have preserved its artifacts and stories not because they resemble us, but because they are different. The point of engaging with them is to contend with what is foreign, not to replace it with comforting modernity.

Ancient Greece is remarkable, horrifying, marvelous, repulsive, and admirable all at once. It is not a culture we would want to inhabit, but it is one from which we still benefit by struggling to understand it on its own terms. Turning it into a generic vehicle for contemporary sensibilities performs a kind of reverse alchemy: it transforms something rare and demanding into something familiar and undemanding, thus making gold into lead.

Knowing is half the battle. The most important half comes next: when good men bring evildoers to jail.

"The Odyssey" is about how Bronze Age travel was so slow that it takes Odysseus ten years to traverse the 675 nautical miles home from Troy to Ithaca, and Menelaus needs a couple of years to get back to Sparta.

So how did a Kenyan, a South Asian, and various Chinese get there?

[General Mike Flynn @GenFlynn]

Whoever instructed this NSA employee (see below) to “deliberately massage” CCP election interference in addition to hiding it from @realDonaldTrump should be arrested immediately. Better yet, maybe they should come forward and give up whoever directed them to do so (and their sentence might be mitigated).

Also, anything related to U.S. elections will have the full visibility and knowledge of the DIRNSA / Commander, CYBERCOM—which is why I’ve also called for the arrest and questioning over their role to lie to the @POTUS and undermine the constitution of the United States of America!

“Deliberately massage” equates to intentionally lie!

[Richard Grenell @RichardGrenell]

“Changed any votes” is a new and higher bar for you and your left wing team.

That wasn’t always your definition of election interference….

We see that you are now admitting that it was foreign interference - as defined by YOUR team long ago.

When you lost, you said Russia interfered because they pushed propaganda (mainly on social media) to influence the discussions Americans were having about policy issues during the election.

You always change the rules when you lose.

I lived in Toronto from 1999-2021, I can’t remember a single summer with a smoke issue. It’s definitely mismanagement. This is a brand new problem.

@FoxfordComics Gibson should do The Odyssey correctly just for the sake of principle.

Unless there are arrests, nothing will change. I want to see everyone in jail who hid this from the President. What they did is treason.

They don’t have forest fires like this in Alaska. It’s a very big place, but they allow controlled burns. In Canada, the government wants everyone terrified. So they let it burn, cut resources to forest management budgets, and grift off the billions spent on “Climate”.

🚨 NOW: Sec. Marco Rubio just said it PERFECTLY in front of dozens of global officials on leftist terrorism

"You are here because two weeks ago, a 72-year-old woman was BURNED on over 80% of her body in her own home, in Greece, and she died, executed by a fire bomb because her daughter dared to stand for office!"

"Far-left political terrorism is NOT a recent day modern novelty. It is NOT a fiction manufactured by conservative politicians."

"For most of the modern era, it was in fact the DOMINANT form of political violence."

"You are here today because for five days this winter, the lights went out in Berlin. The longest blackout in the city since the Second World War sparked by an attack that left tens of thousands of households without power in the freezing cold and left an 83-year-old woman dead."

"You are here and you came because a month after that Berlin blackout, a French 23-year-old succumbed to traumatic brain injuries beaten to death on the streets of Lyon by a group of far-left militant thugs."

"You are here because your political leaders are being attacked and stabbed and shot in your streets — because your businesses have been bombed, because your railways have been sabotaged, because your police officers have been beaten and burned!"'

"You are here because this is real and it is getting worse and it can no longer be denied and it can no longer be ignored because it is time to crush this evil forever!"

Pete Hegseth just blocked the promotions of seven senior Navy officers — five of whom are women or people of color — to two-star admiral rank.

For the first time in more than a decade, no female active-duty naval officers are likely to be promoted to admiral this year. https://t.co/RTCUIjTLTx

@Cernovich It's not even Purgatory. Golden Age is a long way off, but Trump 2.0 is like summer camp. People have already forgotten the sheer hell of a Democrat administration.
