HE’S NOT WRONG:
The whole idea of globalism and multiculturalism was to kill the country. The whole thing, the idea of it. The whole shebang. To make it cool to spit on the ashes of your fathers and the temples of your gods. To make it shameful in fact to even have a father or gods.

The most offensive word in the phrase MAGA is "America". Ruins everything. Remove it and it will be alright.

Treason used to be a shameful thing. Now it's a lot less embarrassing than misgendering someone.

Well, in certain crowds.
IT IS:
Moraes was demanding that 𝕏 take actions that are illegal under Brazilian law and be silent about it.
If that is not extreme corruption, what is? https://t.co/iAaAnfE7wb

OLD PEOPLE, DRUNKS, AND CHILDREN SPEAK THE TRUTH AT INCONVENIENT TIMES:
JUST IN: President Biden admits that the 'Inflation Reduction Act' was not actually about inflation after he started ranting without the teleprompter.
Holy sh*t.

HMM: Scientists Discover “Completely Different” New Risk Factor for Heart Disease. “In addition to the established risk factors for cardiovascular disease—such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, smoking, and lack of physical activity—another factor must now be considered: clonal hematopoiesis. This condition, caused by acquired mutations in blood stem cells, has already been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular events. However, until now it was uncertain if clonal hematopoiesis was a cause or consequence of cardiovascular disease. Now, a new study published in Nature Medicine and carried out by researchers at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) resolves this critical debate by establishing clonal hematopoiesis as a new risk factor for atherosclerosis—the formation of lesions in the arterial wall that underlies most cardiovascular disorders.”

NOT A GREAT ADVERTISEMENT: Antony Blinken Dragged US Diplomacy Into the 21st Century. Even He’s Surprised by the Results: Two major wars. A rising China. Hackers everywhere. He’s the US secretary of state, and he says he’s here to help.
I think you’ve “helped” quite enough already, Tony.

#JOURNALISM:
The media forgot about Biden so fast you’d think it was a botched Afghanistan withdrawal, fire in Maui, train wreck in Ohio, Venezuelan apartment takeover, or assassination attempt on Trump.

IT HAS CROSSHAIRS, I THOUGHT THOSE WERE FORBIDDEN: MIT anti-Israel activists spread map of Jewish orgs they want to ‘dismantle,’ provoking condemnation from MIT. “The map includes the locations of several Jewish organizations, including the Synagogue Council of Massachusetts, the Hillel Council of New England, and the Jewish National Fund’s New England Regional Office.”

LOL, LIZ CHENEY: SHOCKING NEWSFLASH!: Liz Cheney Comes Out for Kamala Harris. “The mainstream media and the blob are going to leave it all on the field. You have to admire them for that. First we got the pathetic news story that former Republican “officials” who turned out to be low-level staffers and interns were going to vote for Kamala Harris, and now we are supposed to be shocked out of our Trump-induced stupor by the shocking news that Liz Cheney hates Donald Trump so much that she has endorsed Harris.” Remember, she’s one of the “principled Republicans.”
Flashback:

IF SHE CAN, SHE WILL: Will Kamala Go After Elon With The Law?
BECAUSE WE HAVE A CORRUPT, INCOMPETENT RULING CLASS? Why Can’t The U.S. Build Ships? The Obama-era purge of the upper levels of the Pentagon removed or chased out most of the people who see their job as preparing for and fighting wars, in favor of time-servers, paper-pushers, and DEI-trainer types. The hollowing out of our defense industrial base was just part of that.
