All of us were on X for over a decade while the country went into the shitter. No one was listening to us then and they sure as hell wouldn't be listening to us now. Folks really, really need to stop overstating how much non-elite discourse matters and assign proper agency to the actual evil people.

"trans ideology is a sickness." [reads the news] "people's personal affairs are none of our business and we should talk about immigration"
A screenshot of two tweets by Representative Nancy Mace. 

The first, published at 8:02AM today, reads: "To anyone celebrating "Trans Day of Visibility" today, we sincerely hope you get the help you need."

The second, published at 9:06 AM reads: "The media wants to talk about Bryon and Kristi Noem's personal drama and indiscretions. I want to talk about who is getting deported, who got paid, and who's stealing from taxpayers.

Different priorities. Let's focus on what matters."

Leavitt contradicts Jesus, who explicitly says in Matthew 6:5-6 to not do the exact thing she does here
Matthew 6:5-6
New International Version

5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for: - Who takes over; - Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation; - How to defend US bases in the region; - Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and - How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

Hegseth is wholeheartedly endorsing the core premise of fascism: industry, as part of the private sphere, must be subordinated to the military objectives of the state.
In a long tweet about Anthropic, Pete Hegseth, through the offical "SecWar" Twitter account says "the Department of War must have full, unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models for every LAWFUL purpose in defense of the Republic."

A whistleblower just disclosed that FBI experts were delayed by AT LEAST A DAY in deploying to investigate Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Why? There was an FBI plane and pilot shortage… because Kash Patel was using them for personal flights.

Literally 10 days ago, this hypocritical jackass introduced a bill to make concealed carry easier across the nation to help "law-abiding citizens to more freely exercise their Second Amendment rights." www.hoeven.senate.gov/news/news-re...
01.14.25
Hoeven Helps Introduce Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act
Legislation Would Allow Concealed Carry Permits to Be Used Across State Lines, Subject to State & Local Laws
WASHINGTON – Senator John Hoeven helped introduce the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, legislation sponsored by Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) to allow individuals with concealed carry privileges in their home state to exercise those rights in any other state that allows concealed carry. Importantly, the bill protects state sovereignty by not establishing a national standard for concealed carry, instead treating concealed-carry permits similarly to state-issued drivers’ licenses, allowing them to be used across state lines while still requiring individuals to abide by that state’s laws. Hoeven has cosponsored this legislation every session of Congress since 2015.

          “This legislation empowers law-abiding citizens to more freely exercise their Second Amendment rights when traveling across state lines,” said Senator Hoeven. “Under our bill, individuals that have been granted a concealed carry permit in their home state will be able to use that permit in any other state that allows concealed carry, making it easier to travel while still respecting laws passed on the state level.”

It's never that they are wrong. It's that protestors are paid, or the judge is married to someone with an opposing viewpoint, or the polls are fixed. For a party that wants everyone to "man up" and "be alphas," they are quite a group of little whiny bitch babies.
