Pretty sure I’m in early labor, but I wasn’t about to miss voting in Virginia. Two older women tried to hand me a Democrat sample ballot and asked if I knew about the constitutional amendments. Ladies, I’m 9 months pregnant. You picked the WRONG woman. I told them I knew exactly what was on the ballot and that I was disgusted, absolutely disgusted. Every baby has value. Every baby deserves the right to life. And I’ll fight for their lives just as fiercely as I’d fight for my own. So I waddled into that voting booth, contractions and all, and voted NO on Amendment 1. Abortion should NEVER be a constitutional right.

The Sydney Sweeney ad discourse is a good time to re-up this data from @FamStudies. 1 in 8 men are gambling AND watching porn daily. Maybe conservatives don’t need to reflexively defend an ad just because liberals are mad about it. Gambling + sexualized advertising is basically a mashup of two of the biggest vices hollowing out young men right now.

May we never forget this day, America. I pray for the people who died, the families and friends affected by this horrible tragedy, and for our nation to be united. Extend grace and spread a little more love to someone today❤️
"I can hear you. The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon." 25 years ago, President George W. Bush gave his famous "I can hear you" speech at Ground Zero, just three days after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. With one arm around retired FDNY firefighter Bob Beckwith and a bullhorn in the other, Bush thanked the rescue and recovery workers. "America today is on bended knee in prayer for the people whose lives were lost here, for the workers who work here, for the families who mourn." "This nation stands with the good people of New York City, and New Jersey, and Connecticut, as we mourn the loss of thousands of our citizens."

The combination of the Lindsay Clancy story, the one year mark for Charlie’s murder and the 25th for 9/11 is a lot of darkness for one week. Hug your kids. Go outside. Hold hands. Thank God for the privilege of being alive. And say a prayer for the lost and grieving.

Excited for you, Eric — and sad to see you leave the Hill. After 20 years in DC, I can count on both hands the leadership staff I’ve worked with who balanced intellect, compassion, trust, and hard work the way you have. Congratulations on the next chapter at @S2RPubAffairs. You’re going to crush it.
After eight years serving in House Republican leadership, I’m excited to start a new chapter with @S2RPubAffairs. It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve @SpeakerJohnson and work alongside the leadership team and so many incredible colleagues and friends on Capitol Hill. None of it would have been possible without my wife and family. While I spent plenty of late nights at the Capitol, my wife was home doing the real work—raising our four incredible kids. I’m grateful beyond words for her support and sacrifice. I’m proud of what we accomplished and excited for what comes next!

Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front by Wendell Berry Love the quick profit, the annual raise, vacation with pay. Want more of everything ready-made. Be afraid to know your neighbors and to die. And you will have a window in your head. Not even your future will be a mystery any more. Your mind will be punched in a card and shut away in a little drawer. When they want you to buy something they will call you. When they want you to die for profit they will let you know. So, friends, every day do something that won’t compute. Love the Lord. Love the world. Work for nothing. Take all that you have and be poor. Love someone who does not deserve it. Denounce the government and embrace the flag. Hope to live in that free republic for which it stands. Give your approval to all you cannot understand. Praise ignorance, for what man has not encountered he has not destroyed. Ask the questions that have no answers. Invest in the millennium. Plant sequoias. Say that your main crop is the forest that you did not plant, that you will not live to harvest. Say that the leaves are harvested when they have rotted into the mold. Call that profit. Prophesy such returns. Put your faith in the two inches of humus that will build under the trees every thousand years. Listen to carrion – put your ear close, and hear the faint chattering of the songs that are to come. Expect the end of the world. Laugh. Laughter is immeasurable. Be joyful though you have considered all the facts. So long as women do not go cheap for power, please women more than men. Ask yourself: Will this satisfy a woman satisfied to bear a child? Will this disturb the sleep of a woman near to giving birth? Go with your love to the fields. Lie down in the shade. Rest your head in her lap. Swear allegiance to what is nighest your thoughts. As soon as the generals and the politicos can predict the motions of your mind, lose it. Leave it as a sign to mark the false trail, the way you didn’t go. Be like the fox who makes more tracks than necessary, some in the wrong direction. Practice resurrection.

Exactly. Saying, “Get married!” is easy. Finding a compatible, healthy spouse is an entirely different matter.
Intriguing to think about how much would the right’s conversations around “women being too picky” might change if more people realized that nearly every other young man in his 20s smoked weed, gambled, and/or watched porn *every day*

Today, the Vice President of the United States referred dozens of gender doctors to the DOJ for criminal investigation. Because now we know that moral crimes were committed alongside financial crimes. It was an honor and privilege to have had the opportunity to work alongside the authors of this report.

This is crazy. But not surprising. It was never about choice.
Whatever happened to freedom of choice? California’s attorney general is seeking an injunction and up to $20 million in fines against Christian nonprofits for informing women of medical treatments that can reverse the abortion pill if a woman changes her mind before the baby has died. wsj.com/opinion/californias-…

The "common good" is best achieved in strong local communities, where neighbors help neighbors. When decisions about what's best for people are centralized in Washington, D.C., it often creates more problems. We should be working to make Washington smaller and local communities stronger. Federalism is the way.

"California v. Heartbeat International and RealOptions is a rare case that should bring together both sides of the abortion debate. In particular, it tests the souls of those who claim the platform of 'pro-choice.'"

More of this please
Po 20 latach małżeństwa muszę w końcu powiedzieć to głośno... Z moją żoną nie łączy mnie już nic. Poznaliśmy się na egzaminie na filozofię ponad 20 lat temu. Byliśmy młodzi i głupi, nie słuchając rozsądnych opinii szybko wzięliśmy ślub. A potem życie zrobiło swoje i dziś żyjemy w dwóch różnych światach. Ona: dzieci, szkoła, dydaktyka, nauka, góry, natura, koty, dramaty. Ja: firmy, fundusze, inwestycje, biznes, miasto, beton, psy, komedie. Ona: kreatywna, empatyczna, marzycielska. Ja: analityczny, rzeczowy, osadzony w faktach. Zero wspólnych pasji. Zero wspólnych zainteresowań. Nie śmieszą nas te same rolki na Instagramie. Każdy terapeuta ze śniadaniowej telewizji wystawiłby naszemu małżeństwu akt zgonu. Znajomi pewnie się zastanawiają, kiedy ogłoszę rozwód. No to ogłaszam... Kocham tę kobietę bardziej niż 20 lat temu! I kiedy wieczorem opowiada mi o rzeczach, które kompletnie mnie nie interesują, słucham jej z przyjemnością, której nie tłumaczy żaden poradnik. Bo przez te 20 lat zrozumiałem coś, co przeczy wszystkiemu, co wciskają nam media. Wspólne pasje to nie budulec związku. To dekoracja. Ludzie po latach idą różnymi drogami, w różnym tempie i to nie jest awaria. Tak wygląda życie. Prawdziwy budulec jest inny. Chcesz dla drugiej osoby lepiej niż dla siebie. Jej potrzeby stawiasz nad swoje. Wolisz dawać, niż brać. Jeśli tego nie ma, nie uratują was nawet identyczne playlisty. Więc jeśli twoja druga połówka to twoje przeciwieństwo, przestań to naprawiać. Może właśnie tam mieszka wasz sekret. Nie musicie kochać tych samych rzeczy. Wystarczą te same wartości, ten sam kierunek, szacunek do różnic i troska o drugą połowę większa niż o siebie. I na koniec coś, co zrozumiałem dopiero niedawno... Przez 20 lat moja żona każdego dnia miała powody, żeby wybrać inaczej. Innego człowieka, inne życie, inny świat; bliższy jej gór niż mojego betonu. Mimo to każdego dnia wybierała to samo... mnie. Miłość to nie jest coś, co się czuje. To coś, co się codziennie wybiera. Od 21 lat jestem czyimś wyborem i jestem z tego naprawdę dumny...
