“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.”

Honoring Ashli Babbitt Dishonors the Military
If there’s no difference between upholding the Constitution and attacking it, then there’s no honor in service.

Trump's BLS pick EJ Antoni has said that Social Security, America's greatest anti-poverty program, is a "Ponzi scheme" that needs to be sunset.

Reminder that BLS data is what determines annual cost-of-living adjustments for Social Security benefits.

This is a five-alarm fire.

Y’all out here complaining about Jizzlane Maxwell’s cushy camp cupcake prison digs & work release perks need to remember FL GOP AG’s let Jeffrey Epstein OUT of jail every day so he could go back to his mansion in Palm Beach and molest schoolgirls. Not a joke.

We’re spending a lot of time talking about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. But don’t forget their victims. The survivors.

Not all of them made it. At least two women connected to Epstein’s abuse have died by suicide. The real number may be higher.

Jeffrey Epstein accuser, Maria Farmer, speaks out.

We have some good news in these dark times!

Narcisso Barranco, the father of three U.S. Marines, has been released from an ICE detention center in Adelanto, California.

I hope to see more releases and more families reunited.

Small steps lead to great victories.🔥

Please pass it on.

The wildest part about us getting banned on instagram and threads and all meta platforms without warning or explanation is not even being able to get in touch with a human being about it.

Hundreds of videos of barricades going up around the White House and the Treasury Department were posted on social media twelve hours ago.

There is no way of knowing if the videos are real and no coverage whatsoever in major media.

Really feels like someone has dropped the ball. Folks are on edge.

A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual

PM Viktor Orban warned people to stay away, threatening “clear legal consequences.” But the warnings only turned a modest event into a mass rally against his government

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful.

Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood.

We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?
