“We humans have a natural impulse to adapt to reality. It has been essential for the survival of our species and the development of civil society. But now, that same normalizing impulse is putting us in serious danger…we are under attack from an enemy within.” www.americaamerica.news/p/we-are-und...

We Are Under Attack From an Enemy Within
By listening to our founders and refusing to go along with this, we can name and defeat the ongoing danger to our constitutional republic

Killer Pete Hegseth? “Forget equality. Forget expertise. Forget decades of experience. Forget the law to achieve his violent ends. Expect more of this unless Dems take over Congress. And if they do: The hunger to impeach to him may turn into real action.” www.americaamerica.news/p/fighting-f...

Fighting for the Future We Want
Listen to the words of Trump, Hegseth and a federal judge. They are a warning of two different fates for America after the midterms.

Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.

They lied during their Senate confirmation hearings. They should be impeached; lying constitutes perjury and/or high crimes and misdemeanors.

Two Big Firemen and 25 Years of Bullshit: Donald Trump Has Never Stopped Lying About 9/11
Friday he’ll be the only living president not at Ground Zero, and today he stood at the White House and told a story about firefighters carrying him to safety. None of it holds up. It never has.

3 MILLION GALLONS — GONE. A waterline leak tied to a DATA CENTER in El Reno reportedly cost residents 3 MILLION gallons of treated water this week. Maybe before we rush to throw up data centers everywhere, we should STUDY what they demand

That used to be a major daycare center here in the heart of Data Center Alley, because there were so many people who worked here. Now it’s just these big, giant computer energy-guzzling, water-guzzling warehouses.

Taking down a Flock camera means nothing if they replace it with another camera doing the same thing. These Corrupt Bigshots can change the company name all it wants, but Texans still shouldn't have their movements tracked and stored everywhere they drive.
Screenshot of a Jalopnik article headlined, “Flock Cameras Are Coming Down Around The Country Only To Be Replaced By The Same Technology With A Different Name.” The article is by Justin Hughes and dated September 5, 2026.

Spoke with a member of the military who just arrived home on leave from the gulf. Verified his norm meal of a scoop of rice, ketchup, Mayo. Sometimes mashed potatoes. Food rationing all the time. Horrid conditions. Have loved this kid since he was 3. My rage keeps escalating. Yours should too.

This nation was founded on a union, and on this Labor Day, we’re reminded that the American worker, not Washington, has led to our prosperity. As one of the few pro-union GOP congressmen at the time, I’d rather celebrate the workers than the paperwork signers who gave us off today. (Link below)

It's not enough that they pay half the price that households pay for electricity. Now they're going to get cut price gas too! It's time we stopped pandering to Big Tech and their data centres which create no jobs, and use our electricity, water and gas. No more data centres!
