Here's something I haven't seen reported about James Talarico that should tell you everything you need to know about the "moderate" Democratic Party. THIS is what he said about abortion during a sermon:
"The disagreement about the legality of abortion IS NOT a disagreement about life. It's a disagreement about personhood. No one disagrees that an embryo is biologically alive. We each have trillions of living organisms inside of us right now.
So the question is, is an embryo a legal person whose rights trump those of a woman?
The only way we can allow the rights of an embryo to trump the rights of a woman is if we believe a woman is not a full person... Being Christian and being pro-choice are absolutely consistent because Christianity is a feminist religion."
So essentially, 'Jesus believes your baby should have the same rights as a tapeworm living in your body. And if you disagree, you're helping the patriarchy enslave women.'
This is the MODERATE Democratic platform?!
Imagine its June 1, 1776
Independence feels closer than ever but Pennsylvania’s delegation is divided about separating from the crown.
But not you – in fact, when independence is declared, it's what you do two days later that leaves a mark on history.
Anyone who claims the lack of joy about the 250th is a function of a rough economy was not alive in 1976.
The country rocked in its 200th celebration and the economy was a FREAKING MESS.
There is this Gen Z misconception that the '70s and early '80s were some sort of economic golden age of readily available, well-paying jobs, low cost housing and an all around sense of prosperity.
WRONG.
Google "Stagflation." Google "gas lines." Google "mortgage interest rates in the 1980s."
Our economy today is a golden age by comparison, without exaggeration.
Yet somehow in 1976 we could gleefully celebrate our nation's birthday without Democrats turning it into a Howard Zinn-inspired anti-history hatefest.
Milton Friedman: “Keep your eye on one thing and one thing only: how much government is spending, because that’s the true tax.”
“If you’re not paying for it in the form of explicit taxes, you’re paying for it indirectly in the form of inflation or borrowing.”
This is Lance Corporal Garland Ray ‘Buddy’ Mann.
20 years old.
Watch this video for a minute and you’ll notice something.
He doesn’t look like a history book.
He looks like a kid.
A kid who should’ve had another 50 years ahead of him.
Buddy was killed in action shortly after this interview.
Every now and then it’s worth remembering that the freedoms we argue about online were often paid for by young men who never got the chance to come home and argue with us.
Semper Fi, Buddy.
Voltaire passed away today in 1778.
There are two quotes of his I always come back to:
"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
and
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”
Kentucky would have had the second most draft picks in the Big 12 last year.
They had the 11th most in the SEC.
Thanks for helping prove Sark’s point. 🤝
A small group of activists shut down clean nuclear power - and now they are trying to do the same to data centers. It would plunge the country into a recession, high unemployment & risk our national security to China. 🇺🇸
