@ConceptualJames If she's supporting armed insurrection, arrest and execute her

@ResisttheMS The US is trying to remake NATO

NATO sends billions of dollars to the Ukraine so they can kill people in Moscow

@ThomasSowell Do you object to Christians praying (and preaching) in the streets?

They have all the churches they need to pray (and preach) inside, why are they doing that?!

[B D Funk @williefunk]

@XVanFleet @DougWahl1 I find their lies entertaining

I find those who believe their lies even more entertaining

It's thise who ignore the truth to be the most disturbing and scary

@DefiantLs We do have a democracy...

It's run by fools who vote

@entropyrian @ConceptualJames The worst idiots say...

"I paid into social security so the government better not touch my benefits!"

[B D Funk @williefunk]

@JoeTalkShow @TheOfficerTatum If you count income, sales and property taxes, the the 90% pay very close to 90%

The top 10% write off more personal business expenses, like, hotels, meals, clothing

The worst offenders are those who get "free" government benefits and don't work

@AnnCoulter I doubt any socialist coming from Europe in the late 1800s and early 1900s was telling the truth at Ellis Island

[B D Funk @williefunk]

@ConceptualJames All this socialism we're experiencing now is the result of letting in all those Europeans in the late 1800s and early 1900s

This is because the anti-capitalist left is not actually against people being crazy rich. They're against certain types of people being crazy rich.

Artists and athletes make sense to them because they've played music and sports and because their success can be explained by "luck" and "talent". Messi's wealth is not offensive to them because they understand Messi is much better at football than they are.

But when it comes to business, the anti-capitalist leftist has no framework for understanding why Jeff Bezos might be super rich since 99% of them have never ever created a product, business or service that was of value to other people. They've never taken entrepreneurial risk. They've never employed people and felt the burden of responsibility that comes with that. They've never pick up a business and given it a play in the way they've picked up a ball or a guitar.

They *literally* don't understand wealth creation. They think there is a fixed amount of money and the only thing a business does is split it unfairly.

It's why they rage at Elon and other successful business leaders. Because they genuinely don't understand why they're wealthy.

Also, and this is just as important, athletes and artists are disproportionately young, attractive, "diverse", left wing etc. Business leaders are "evil" middle aged white men whose success offends the average anti-capitalist leftist because they don't understand a) what it is they do and b) that Elon Musk has the same talent advantage on them as Messi does, it's just harder to measure.

"The bug of ISIS and al-Qaeda started there in Egypt in 1928." ⚠️

Western leaders are making a fatal mistake. They are looking for a physical headquarters to ban, completely missing the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood isn't just an organisation, it’s a powerful, borderless movement.

In this sharp breakdown, @Ed_Husain exposes the 1928 roots of modern Islamist extremism. He reveals how a single primary school teacher rejected 1,000 years of traditional Islamic scholarship to build a political movement designed to confront the West and resurrect an empire.

If you want to understand the modern geopolitics of the Middle East, you need to understand this origin story.

@marklevinshow Children born overseas where one parent is not a citizen declare their citizenship upon reaching adulthood

[B D Funk @williefunk]

@marklevinshow The relationship of the ALL PERSONS to his parents is not mentioned

Jurisdiction covers ALL PERSONS born to parents overseas, such as to military, civil servants, tourists, etc. who recognize the US as their home

[B D Funk @williefunk]

@jefflynch967 @marklevinshow "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

ALL

@thatsKAIZEN @NYCMayor Mamdani's definition of "rich" is anyone who can pay for whatever he wants

[Net Zero Watch @NetZeroWatch]

.@createstreets research shows that people like bricks because they make homes and communities look attractive, familiar and rooted. They give new housing permanence and character. They help new developments look like places people want to live in.

Unfortunately, Net Zero is incompatible with the public’s preference for attractive, durable, brick-built homes. Why? Because brickmaking depends on high-temperature kilns. It uses large amounts of energy, which makes it a perfect target for Ed Miliband and the green blob.

Net Zero places brickmaking inside an industrial pathway that requires emissions to fall by 78% by 2040 and 93% by 2050.

Unless the industry can decarbonise through hydrogen, electrification or another low-carbon kiln technology, it will face mounting pressure from carbon prices, embodied-carbon limits, planning rules and procurement standards. Yet none of these technological routes is commercially viable at scale for ordinary house-brick production.

Carbon accounting rules are clearly a problem. But they are just one mechanism through which Net Zero disciplines the sector.

Changing the assumed lifespan from 60 to 120 years may buy the brick industry some time, but it will not remove the underlying threat. For that to change, we need to abolish Net Zero and restore energy realism to policymaking.

@robbystarbuck @megbasham The government cannot be allowed to control religious messages, theology or doctrine in school

The government cannot be allowed to give preference to one (or more) religions or Christian denominations
