SERIOUSLY, YOU DON’T:  You say you want a revolution?  Nah, you really don’t.

THEY ARE WHO THEY ARE. Ersatz celebrities and self proclaimed elites:  Obamas spotted on Steven Spielberg’s $250M superyacht off Italian coast as millions mourned Charlie Kirk.

THEY’VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A CENTURY: It’s not working as well as it used to!  The most terrifying thing the far left is doing to cripple our society that you don’t know about yet.

SHE’S RIGHT, YOU KNOW?  IT’S 2025 AND YOU’RE THE LEFT: Money didn’t work, celebrities didn’t work, showing up at 12 midnight with ballots didn’t work. Even assassination hasn’t worked. Backfired catastrophically. You’re the Left and you held every institution. Had complete cultural dominance. And now? Now everything is collapsing. Nothing’s working and everywhere you look you’re losing ground.

And for you the XLESS

HUNDREDS? IN FRANCE?  Hundreds of French Charlie Kirk Fans Commemorate the TPUSA Founder’s Death by the Seine River.

ARE NICKNAMES BECOMING LESS COMMON?  I hope not.  But I asked AI, and it said yes.  (And so did this.).

When I was growing up, many of the adults on the street had nicknames.  Mr. Hudkins was “Cracker.”  Nobody ever called him by his given name “Carl.”  Mr. Martin was “Tricky” and never called “Aubrey.”  And Mrs. Litton was “Kick.”  My generation, by contrast, mostly had the standard diminutives for their given names–like “Tommy,” “Danny,” and “Ricky.”  The only exception I can think of was “Jamie James,” whose real given name was Raymond.  Even the standard diminutives are apparently less common now.

I didn’t know that “Cracker” was considered an ethnic slur until I moved to Chicago for college.  My Texas-born boyfriend (later spouse) nearly fell off his chair laughing when I told him about Cracker.  He suggested that I avoid calling anyone that lest they take offense.  Of course, it would never have occurred to me to do so.  Only Cracker was Cracker.

IT NEVER FAILS: Release day, so of course, we got caught by the one medical office run by the Sloth of Zootopia. (I was there! I don’t care what my husband says.)   So, That Happened To the Day!

OFT EVIL WILL SHALL EVIL MAR:

Cut Biden’s teleprompter and you get an absolute disaster.

Cut Trump’s teleprompter and you get sh*t talked for an hour straight.

Nice try!!!

Think about this…

The UN cut President Trump’s teleprompter to mess up his 15 minute speech so he talked sh*t about the UN for 55 minutes off prompter.😂😂😂

There will never be another like him.

Trump is 1of 1.

Amusingly, he extemporized after they “accidentally” shut off his teleprompter as soon as he walked up. And they shut down the escalator as soon as he stepped on it. They thought that would shut him up? They really are morons.

First off, this was 100% deliberate. Just by itself, it would already have been extraordinarily unlikely given the coincidence with Trump stepping on the escalator, but this foreshadowing makes it indisputably intentional. Second, those responsible should not just be fired but… https://t.co/Dyx3PIiKBD

As Trump arrived to the UN, the escalator stopped working the moment he stepped on it.
