Free housing for all. Free education for all. Free healthcare for all. What ever happened to “Ask not what your country can do for you”?

Quick Keith Malinak Update: From Kari, Y’all - I have to share with you such a God send…. There is a communication device that we are going to be receiving that will allow Keith to communicate. Thought you’d like to know that tidbit ❤️

With our luck, and as stupid as people actually are, prices will come down AFTER we get shellacked in the midterms, and all the idiots that can’t see past their own noses will think the Dumbocrats did it… #Patheads #PutThatInYourPipe

That’s probably why Talarico was missing, @JeffyJFR. He was doing some pole watching . He does have a favorite drag queen after all. #Patheads #PutThatInYourPipe

@HistoryBuff7986 and I welcomed our third grandson around 4:15 this morning, Montana time. Mom and baby are happy and healthy. Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers for our daughter and her family. #PutThatInYourPipe

Im a big nobody on X. Even so, when my family needed prayers, @KeithMalinak amplified my request. Please help me return the favor. He is a kind person who makes time for everyone and is willing to help anyone. Praying for Keith and his family. #MalinakMiracle

Here’s mine: A world ruled by a USMC veteran, military history lover, supporter of decisive action, critic of socialist policies, defender of strong alliances and proper military standards, and all-around tradition-minded family man. Apparently, I’m a military dictator, baby

Here is mine: A world of patient autonomy over prohibition, protecting stable chronic-pain patients from collateral damage, restoring function so people can work, cook, bake, and enjoy family life, and holding actual wrongdoers accountable instead of the innocent. #PainCareCrisis

Did @realKrisCruz spill coffee on a button? Sound is out. Guys, bingo is over. You don’t have to do the @BlazeTV technical issues bingo square #PutThatInYourPipe

I was trying to figure out how to ballot-stuff the Pop Tart side of the poll, and then became saddened to learn that Twitter/X polling is more secure than our elections... #PutThatInYourPipe

Is it just me, or does contemporary liberalism seem more and more like the criminally insane doing everything they can to influence the criminally stupid? #PutThatInYourPipe #Patheads

Seventeen months, @michaeljknowles? Baseball too long?? I'd be okay with a World Series in December (early December, so the players can celebrate Christmas with their families, of course!), with a month off, and then right on into spring training.

I’m hung up on how unserious we’ve become. We rage over the cost of a burrito while movie theaters pulled in $4 billion. Theaters are roughly $30/person with snacks. Live within your means. You don’t need every luxury. Read Brave New World. #PutThatInYourPipe
