Donald Tusk, who had his minister tell the world that the Kraków terrorist was "far right".
Now wants to censor the Internet.
This little rat is desperate to ruin Poland.
Stop him.

Exciting announcement: My campaign headquarters will be transforming into a leadership and entrepreneurship training center by January 2027!
The center will host classes on a variety of marketing, branding, communications, and fundraising topics to help equip a new generation of skilled, engaged citizens here in Illinois.
Our goal is simple: Give people the tools they need to turn their ideas into action and become effective leaders in their communities.
Throughout my congressional campaign, I met so many people who were passionate about making a difference but weren’t always sure where to start.
I want to help change that.
We’ll create a space where entrepreneurs, aspiring leaders, nonprofit founders, and everyday citizens can develop practical skills, build meaningful connections, and learn how to communicate their missions effectively.
From building a brand and growing an online audience to organizing initiatives and raising support for important causes, our focus will be on REAL skills that produce REAL results.
Because we can’t keep waiting for someone else to step up and solve the problems in our communities. We need to equip more people to become the solution.
I’m especially excited that the same space that served as the headquarters for my congressional campaign will now become a place where we help develop the next generation of leaders.
The campaign may be over, but our commitment to building stronger communities is just getting started.
Our first classes are planned for January 2027, and I’ll be sharing more details about the schedule and registration soon.
If there’s a skill or topic you’d love to learn, drop it in the comments. I’d love your input as we build this together!
This proves that we can keep bombing the shit out of Iran for as long as we want and it will have zero effect on gas prices!!! @POTUS
THEY TOLD YOU IT WAS TRUMP’S FAULT. THEN THE PRICES STARTED FALLING BEFORE DEMOCRATS EVEN TOOK OFFICE.
Guy pulls up to the pumps and regular is sitting at $2.97. Down the street it’s $2.99. Democrats just won the midterms and they haven’t even been sworn in yet. The stations that were price gouging Americans for months suddenly found a way to drop the price.
National average just fell below $4 for the first time since August (GasBuddy). Down almost 40 cents in a month. Experts say it’s “seasonal.” Funny how the season only arrives right after voters send a message.
This is what the game looks like. Keep prices high long enough to damage the administration in power, then ease off once the political damage is done. Working Americans get the bill either way.
Democrats spent years blaming everyone else for the cost of living. Now the pumps are moving and they still haven’t taken a single vote.
AMERICA FIRST means calling all of them out. They don’t care about your wallet. They care about power.

They murder unborn babies. Why would we expect them to protect children? Pedophiles and Illegals are what they worship.
Read this headline twice.
It's sickening.
All the progressive District Attorneys across the country who have been doing this deserve to go to prison for this particular transgression.
It's unconscionable that they've done this purposefully.

Matthew 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves."

When Pete Hegseth said “no fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals,” Thomas Massie felt attacked on all fronts.

Bukele tiene razón. Cuando las pandillas mataban a su pueblo, ninguna ONG, ni ONU, se hacían problemas por los DDHH.
Aparecen a pedir por los derechos de las pandillas.
Conclusión, toda ONG es un antro zurdo. Inútil y pro delincuente.
Fin.

Maybe we should start visiting his job sites and call ICE. Fuck him. Hire Americans
🚨 UPDATE: Vice Chair of the South Texas Builders Association is THREATENING Stephen Miller with political destruction if he keeps up mass deportations
"If you want to continue harassing our communities?! These same communities you're now harassing will make sure you LOSE THE WHITE HOUSE!" 🤡
Of course they want their CHEAP LABOR and more FOREIGN INVADERS.
Those days are over. Ramp up worksite enforcement and let ICE hit new records daily!

Friends, please pray for the entire Kirk family, who learned they'll wait until at least June 2028 for justice, news likely made doubly painful by remarks about Charlie this week that are beneath contempt.
On the “I’ve Had It” podcast, so-called culture commentators Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan laughed at the idea of digging up Charlie’s body and “doing it again.”
Then Dave Chappelle told a sold-out Madison Square Garden that “life got better” after Charlie was murdered, and that Charlie is now “looking up, laughing so hard he can’t breathe.”
I have often defended comedians, and I understand that pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable is part of the gig. But this is different.
This is laughing at the murder of a young husband and father of two small children, who was killed with a microphone in his hand, inviting those who disagreed with him into honest, respectful dialogue. Shame on you.
There have always been people in the fever swamps who cheer when someone dies. What is new is that it now comes from the main stage and is met with applause.
How did we get here?
This is what a culture looks like when it drifts away from God. Remove God, and with him any sense of the transcendent and the sacred, our objective sense of what is true and good is left in ruins.
What remains is relativism, “my truth” and “your truth,” and finally a game of power: my team against yours. In a world like that, a man's death can become a punchline.
Charlie understood this cultural disease and spent much of his life trying to heal it. It's why he went onto hostile campuses to sit with young people, many of them unmoored and unaffiliated, and make the case for God, for truth, and for a moral order beyond themselves. He listened patiently, argued charitably, and spoke openly about Jesus Christ.
It is my hope, then, that many more will take up this vital part of Charlie's work.

The pilots who dropped this bomb were told they had a 50/50 chance of coming home. Russia kept this footage secret for 59 years
It's the biggest explosion humans have ever made, about 50 megatons. The shockwave still caught their plane and threw it down almost a kilometer. Watch the flash
It was dropped on October 30, 1961, over Novaya Zemlya, an island in the Arctic. The bomb weighed about 27 tons and was 8 meters long. It didn't even fit inside the plane, so they removed the bomb bay doors and carried it half outside
To give the crew time to escape, it fell on a giant parachute. The plane was painted white to reflect the heat
It went off about 4 kilometers above the ground, thousands of times stronger than Hiroshima. By then the bomber was over 100 kilometers away, and the blast still caught it
It was originally designed for 100 megatons. The engineers cut that in half, because the full version would have spread enormous fallout and left the crew no chance
One of the physicists behind it, Andrei Sakharov, later fought against nuclear testing and won the Nobel Peace Prize

Milk. Just milk. Fruit, vegetables, meat, bread, pasta. Spam. Spam works. Just thinking about my childhood and what we had on food stamps.
Food stamp advocate SELF-DESTRUCTS as Rep. Brandon Gill presses her on why taxpayers pay for Coca-Cola.
She tries to dodge the question. Then Gill pulls out the receipts, and she sits there in stunned silence.
GILL: “Should SNAP dollars be spent on sodas?”
WITNESS: “I am happy to talk about hunger and nutrition, but not dictate what Americans should or should not eat or may have access to.”
GILL: “I’m asking if tax dollars should be used to pay for sodas.”
“Do they need sugary sodas to survive?”
WITNESS: “Some of them do…”
GILL: “You think they need Coca-Cola to survive?”
“I’m giving you the opportunity to say yes or no.”
WITNESS: “I will not answer for individuals and their… choices.”
GILL: “What does SNAP stand for?”
WITNESS: “It’s a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.”
GILL: “What’s nutritional about Coca-Cola?”
WITNESS: “I am not a nutritionist.”
Then Gill asks who’s paying her, and she freezes like a deer in headlights.
GILL: “Is your organization funded by organizations that make money from food stamps?”
[awkward silence]
GILL: “Do organizations who profit off of food stamps fund your organization or businesses?”
WITNESS: “I mean, in the, in the, I, I can’t comment to that.”
GILL: “Does General Mills fund your organization?”
WITNESS: “I don’t have access to that information.”
GILL: “I do. It’s right here. They do fund your organization. […] Yes, and they’re profiting off of your advocacy. Do you think that that’s a conflict of interest?”
[more silence]
GILL: “I think most people think that’s a conflict of interest. I know you don’t want to answer.”
Always follow the money.
CONTEXT: USDA’s own study found soft drinks were the #1 purchase in SNAP households, beating milk, ground beef, and everything else in the store.

They’re not really conservatives
Where were all these conservative loudmouths in the Senate when it came time to hold John Thune accountable?
Ted Cruz (TX) @SenTedCruz
Josh Hawley (MO) @HawleyMO
Mike Lee (UT) @SenMikeLee
John Kennedy (LA) @SenJohnKennedy
Tom Cotton (AR) @SenTomCotton
Why didn't they demand John Thune's resignation?
Why didn't they demand an open vote?
Why won't they tell us exactly how they voted?
Primary every single one of them.

Shannen Rossmiller was a retired judge-turned cyber vigilante who infiltrated jihadi groups after 9/11.
Shannen was living a quiet life in rural Montana when she watched in horror as the events of 9/11 unfolded. Unlike most people though, she was determined to join the fight. In her spare time, she learned Arabic, studied the Koran, and located potential jihadi chat rooms online.
Over the course of the next five years, Shannen built multiple personas online with in-depth backstopping, using them to fully identify and report jihadis to the FBI and other agencies. She taught herself techniques such as sending keyloggers to her contacts hidden within JPEGs so as to pass their online activities over to the FBI.
As a private citizen Shannen was able to participate in many online activities that law enforcement agencies could not at the time, due to bureaucratic inertia, funding, and legal restrictions.
Two of Shannen’s biggest victories were the arrests and successful prosecutions of Ryan Anderson, a Washington Army National Guard soldier who wanted to help teach Al-Qaeda how to blow up M1 Abrams tanks in Iraq, and Michael Reynolds, who intended to destroy gas pipelines in the United States. She even convinced an overseas arms dealer to send her pictures of himself sitting on crates of stolen Stinger missiles as proof that he could actually deliver on the merchandise he was offering for sale online.
By 2007 Shannen had built profiles on over 640 potential jihadis online and passed more than 200 of them to the FBI. She worked closely with the FBI field office in Great Falls, MT.
These victories came at a cost. Shannen received many death threats over the years, and her car was shot at on at least one occasion by persons unknown. Nevertheless, she remained dedicated to the fight against terrorism, both at home and abroad.
In November 2020, Shannen passed away from complications related to Graves’ disease.
