To you, it's just a Cracker Barrel parking lot. To me, it's where I gave my life to Jesus Christ.

I was 21 years old. I was working at the Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee after some of the worst years of my life. I'd made mistakes. Real ones.

I grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, raised by a mom who worked hard and didn't accept excuses. But I made decisions that should have ended my story before it ever really started. By the grace of God, they didn't. But every day, I was carrying them.

One afternoon, a church group came into the restaurant, just back from a revival. I served them their meals like I served any other table. But something happened while I was serving them. I can't fully explain it to you. The Lord spoke to me. He said, “Stop running from Me.”

It knocked me back.

I went to find the table, and they were all gone. I could see through their windows that they were getting on their bus, and I knew deep down that if I let them drive away, I was going to keep running. So I went outside. The last woman, just as she was stepping onto the bus, turned to me and asked, “Are you okay?”

I told her, “No ma’am, I’m not okay.” I told her the Lord was telling me to stop running.

That whole bus emptied out, stood with me in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee, Florida, and prayed over me right there.

I gave my life to Christ that day. Right there.

I still get emotional about it. Because I know what I was before that moment, and I know what He's done since. He gave me a wife who shares my faith. He gave me three sons. He gave me a career, a community, a calling I never would have dared to ask for. He took a kid from Crown Heights who’d run out of chances and gave him a life that doesn't make sense apart from grace.

People ask me sometimes why I talk about it. Why I bring up the parking lot. Why I don't just keep that part private and let folks see the polished version.

I'll tell you why.

Because there's a young man out there right now — maybe in Tallahassee, maybe in Tampa, maybe in Miami, maybe in a small town in the Panhandle — who thinks his story is already over. Who thinks the mistakes he's made disqualify him from the life he could have had. Who thinks God doesn't want anything to do with somebody like him.

I'm here to tell him: that's a lie.

In life, you're not who you are at the lowest point. You're who you choose to become after.

The Lord met me in a Cracker Barrel parking lot. He'll meet you wherever you are.

You just have to stop running.

Kristen Welker is such a nasty person.
Shame on her and NBC News.

@deff_jobbs @mkhammer Plus, I was thinking about the smaller colleges in town.

[Bean Counter-Official @TNBeanCounter]

@deff_jobbs @mkhammer Yes, I'm VERY familiar with their teaching hospital.

Yes. Rip down every single George Floyd statue and replace it with an Austin Metcalf statue.

Ready for one of the most disturbing marketing campaigns you’ve ever seen? @HelloFresh wants you to know that they have food for you to prepare your colon for receiving anal sex during Pride Month. Yes, this is real. No sane person should use this insane company.

Rep. Veronica Escobar claims that President Trump was "found guilty of r@pe by a jury of his peers."

That is not even remotely true and the last person who claimed that on cable news had to pay him a $15M settlement.

Guys, relax. It’s perfectly normal. It’s just a voting system where 7 days after the election Democrats get enough votes to win.

TRUTH NUKE: Scott Jennings on Graham Platner: “Only one person had a Nazi tattoo and has chosen to lie about it. He roots for American military deaths. He mocks r*pe victims. He deems rural Americans. He’s been abusive to women. I mean, this is what Democrats are signing off on. This is their most celebrated Senate candidate in the country right now, and in fact, his campaign was bragging after all these things came out he raised $200K online.”

“This is the most INSANE amount of hypocrisy in the pursuit of political power... They had a perfectly viable candidate up there in Janet Mills, but they decided to go with this scumbag, FAKE oyster farmer Nazi tattoo guy instead. It’s crazy!”

Hello Mr. Hunter Biden,

You're getting six-digit likes on every post lately. I don't have any hope to ratio you or whatever through traditional "Hello" means.

But for those uninitiated, those who are captivated by your fake-humble persona obviously PR-engineered to capture unsuspecting disaffected Republicans:

You are not some humility, witty guy turning over a new leaf. You are the ultimate proof of nepotism, everything that the so-called "Epstein Class" is supposed to represent.

Let me explain - off the top of my head.

You were a board member of USGLC. U.S. Global Leadership Coalition. The most powerful NGO that nobody's ever heard of. Last year, I documented in several threads, how Liz Schrayer, USGLC lead, took credit for ramming through a 90 billion dollar bill for Ukraine in 2024, even as @mattvanswol demonstrated that Western North Carolina got zero help in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene because FEMA threw up their hands and said they ran out of funds.

USGLC, arguably, is the most powerful NGO that nobody has ever heard of. It includes a bunch of corporations, a bunch of nonprofit leads, and ... for some magical reason, I documented, extensively, linked, that Liz Schrayer started pursuing you in 2012. During the Obama years, when you were Biden's son. Are you a former Secretary of State? No. Are you a CEO of a Fortune 500 company? No. That puts you below the average USGLC board member, by a good tier.

So what DID get you on USGLC? The only reason: that you were the son of a sitting Vice President known for corruption, and you yourself were known for corruption.

You are not "folksy." You are the worst of the worst of the elite. Most of the elite, at least, get their credentials through Georgetown/George Washington/Harvard Kennedy. You got yours purely on nepotism. Any photographs you have of yourself at motels is proof that you are so incompetent that you waste all your money, not that you come from humble beginnings. Because others like @MarcoPolo501c3 have thoroughly documented that you benefited a great deal from your nepotism.

You even tried to bait those in with saying you prefer to keep immigration "legal" - but we all know the trap that keeps illegal immgrants here: outlaw deportations, and make every immigrant case "asylum", and magically, everyone who might've been here illegally a few years ago is legal.

You may get 175K likes on your semi-subverting, PR-designed photographs. But those of us who know, know you're fake.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Contractors behind the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool repairs are breaking their silence.

Eddie Wood (Atlantic Industrial Coatings) and Marcus Logan (Mid Atlantic Industrial Coating) set the record straight on the misleading media attacks.

• It was a sole-source contract — the government specifically chose polyurea and Rhino Linings.
• Not over budget: Still the original $13.1M proposal. Extra ~$1M for added granite work brought it under $15M total.
• 20% buffer is standard for this industry.
• They’ve never worked for Trump, his companies, or anyone connected.

This isn’t a swimming pool — it’s an industrial containment system built for a perfect mirror reflection.

Media spin/lies exposed.
