Every day we wake up to learn some new factoid about how our entire country has become a giant tax farm for the rest of the world.

What are we even doing here? Why was it possible for non-citizens to receive business loans from our Federal government? Why are we taxing American citizens to give free money to foreigners?

In less than 2 years Democrats have subverted the will of their own registered voters 3 times.

Joe Biden won the 2024 primary. Democrat politicians decided to force him out and install Kamala Harris as the candidate.

They wouldn’t allow RFK Jr. to run as a Democrat so he went independent and then joined Trump.

Now, over 70% of registered democrats want voter ID and the democrats in office are against it.

Tell me again that Trump is a threat to democracy? Please. I’ll wait.

When I see Team USA freestyle skiers saying ICE does not represent them, my mind goes back to 2012.

Seventy-six of us - Papua New Guinean students - arrived in Sydney, Nova Scotia. Thousands of miles from home. Different weather, different culture, different everything.
That first night, during dinner, one of our own stood up and sang our national anthem.

Grown men and women cried.
Not because life was easy - but because we knew what it meant to represent your country far from home.

We were carrying our people, our families, our land with us - quietly, respectfully, proudly.

That’s why this hurts to watch.

These athletes live in the most developed country on Earth. They train in world-class facilities. They enjoy freedoms and protections most humans will never experience.
Yet when they step onto the global stage, they find it easy - almost fashionable - to trash the country that gave them everything.

Every nation has flaws. Every government has problems.
But the global stage is not the place to air domestic political grievances.

I remember @GavinNewsom at Davos. Same issue.
What happens at home should stay at home.
Abroad, the American brand should be unified - not fractured for applause.

Then there’s Billie Eilish - living in a mansion, private security, completely insulated from everyday reality - proudly chanting “ICE out.”

Let me offer perspective.

In America, you dial 911. Police, fire, ambulance show up - minutes, maybe hours.

In Papua New Guinea?
There is no 911.
In rural areas, there is often zero police presence.
Murderers, rapists, violent criminals live in the same communities as their victims.
If something happens, you either find a police station - or defend yourself. Sometimes you just say goodbye to your loved ones.

That’s not theory. That’s life for millions.

In America, you don’t even have to leave your house.
Food shows up. Packages show up. Transportation shows up.
You drive or walk to a polling booth. Ballot boxes arrive easily. Voter registration is accessible.

In PNG - a country that’s 80% rural - people carry ballot boxes on foot, climbing mountains, crossing rivers, just to vote.
Services don’t reach the people - but the ballot boxes do.

And still, people complain.

As much as Americans may struggle - your reality is the lifelong dream of millions who will never experience it. Not once. Not ever. Not even for a generation.

When you stand on the world stage, fly your flag with humility and pride.
Critique your country at home if you must - but don’t forget how rare, how privileged, how blessed your position truly is.

Some of us know what it means to represent a nation - because we come from places where survival isn’t guaranteed, and opportunity isn’t assumed.

And we still sing our anthem with tears in our eyes.

To conclude, as mentioned above, in PNG services rarely or if not ever reaches the rural populace but they consider it their civic duty to vote when the ballot boxes reaches them. Knowing full well that one day, their vote will help secure their children and grandchildren's futures.

What excuse do you have for sitting out the primaries and the midterms?

This gets to the core of who Mike Vrabel is. Yes, he's tough. Yes, he's demanding. But he is the ultimate "people's champ." I've witnessed it often: He has incredible respect for those doing the hard jobs that don't often get the appreciation he believes they deserve.

Newsmax reporting it’s time to arrest Barack Obama

“It should shake every single American in their shoes. I hate to say this, but President Barack Obama, there is now incontrovertible evidence that he was the spearhead of a seditious conspiracy to subvert the will of the American people and overthrow the United States government back in 2016.

We must, absolutely must, hold every one of these criminals accountable for the crimes that they committed. They are the most heinous crimes committed in American history. James Comey, John Brennan, Clapper, Rice, Biden was in the meeting on July 28th in the Oval Office.

They briefed Barack Obama on Hillary Clinton's plan to tie Trump to Russia collusion lies. It consumed our national discourse for 5 years. It undermined a sitting, duly elected president. It sabotaged administration. It framed a three-star general.

It destroyed and ripped this country apart. We had a constitutional crisis, the likes of which I don't think any American can fully comprehend. It is atrocious, and every single one of them must be held accountable”

When you pay your taxes this year remember the $14 Billion that was stolen by Somalis and the gutless politicians that continue to vote to fund them and others.

[Mike Kennealy for Governor @MikeKennealy]

Massachusetts under Maura Healey is so expensive and unfriendly to job creators that an iconic MA brand is cutting ties.

When I was MA economic development secretary, our state gained over 230,000 private sector jobs.

Since Maura Healey has been Governor, our economy has been stagnant. That’s unacceptable.

Venezuelan says under Nicolas Maduro people we’re taken out into the street by the government and killed for having a wrong opinion

She says for Venezuela, “President Trump to a lot of people, he is an answer to prayers”

“To our Democratic and liberal friends, to hopefully well-intentioned but poorly informed people, sit this one out. See, when the people who are mostly affected are celebrating in the street, this is not the time for you to protest.

If you do not personally know someone who tells stories about their father or grandfather being gathered in the street and killed in front of them for their opinion, if you have never had to console your because she didn't get to go visit her mother on her deathbed and has never been able to go lay flowers at her grave site because she was not allowed back into her own country. Sit down respectfully.”

“Well, you have to understand is that regardless of your opinions about President Trump to a lot of people, he is an answer to prayers. Yes. People have prayed for the downfall of this dictator. And like it or not, President Trump has been the answer to that prayer.

“They have just been liberated”

[Brian Rauf @brauf33]

I have a story that I think hits to the center of this.

I worked for ESPN for two months as a temporary PA (left to start my writing career) roughly 11 years ago.

During the interview process, I was asked by a decision maker at the company what I would change about ESPN.

I told him I would want more highlights and more focus on games.

He told me I was wrong and that fans don’t care about games once they go final, they only care about storylines.

I told him that storylines need the context of games (or highlights of them on sportscenter!) and he told me, again, I was wrong.

I think they’ve continued to lose touch with what makes sports fans, sports fans

[Rob Schneider 🇺🇸 @RobSchneider]

Sooooooo….
It WAS the Democrats under the Biden/Harris regime that VIOLATED the FIRST AMENDMENT FREE SPEECH RIGHTS of Americans.
Google admits it!
But don’t hold your breath that ANY Democrat will be held accountable or EVEN apologize for his party.
This was ACTUAL FASCISM👇👇🇺🇸
