The Bengals will be in 2 of the next 5 Super Bowls. I don't care if @OldTakesExposed saves this and roasts me, I believe!
How a father would, not only allow this, but encourage it for his daughter, i will never know.
This Muslim woman was forced to marry by her father at age 14 to a man who was 29 years old
She says she has to listen to everything he says, do chores, can’t work, can’t get an education, if she speaks out she’s beaten (she says this is how it is in Islam)
She got pregnant and had a child
If you remove the religion label of this, and relook at this situation, you’d realize this is actually called kidnapping, assault, rape and slavery
But because it’s women in Islam it’s expected and encouraged
This isn’t some far off in the past thing that happened a long time ago, this is happening to Muslim women right now in 2026
We can’t let this come to America
Extremely important thread with facts. Very stunning.
BREAKING 🚨: After a 6-month investigation, I can confirm @3YearLetterman, self-proclaimed "Die-hard Georgia Fan," was NOT born in Georgia.
I have irrefutable proof that Letterman was born in none other than...ALABAMA.
Exhibit A is Letterman's real birth certificate from Dothan, Alabama, with personal details redacted. Exhibit B is the forgery that has covered it up for thirty years.
Eyewitnesses, confessions, and a lawyer's statement to follow. 🧵
NFL overtime, you win the toss, and you want to kick? I'm not sure analytics could explain that to me.
Wow, just when you think the media can't go lower.
With all due regard for the sensitivities of her wretched victim’s mother, it would be cruel to put her through death by injection twice. She has been executed once; that, even supporters of the death penalty must agree, is enough. Perhaps, since it is now 30 years since her conviction, it is time to free her.

We met Joe and another journalist from Maine Wire when we were in Maine this summer. Solid people that are rightly concerned about what is happening there.
OMG. Deranged man just tried to run over a @TheMaineWire reporter with his car.
The man claims the reporter was "invading people's privacy" by filming a story in public.
This is attempted M*RDER.
This is awesome and worth a minute read.
A couple years ago, Mikala Sposito applied for a work ethic scholarship from my foundation. She asked for $2,700.00 to help realize her dream of becoming a welder. (Actually, her first dream was to become an Olympian. As a kid, she excelled at horseback riding, dance, soccer, and track, but not quite at the Olympic level. So, Mikala adjusted her dream and focused on something within her reach. Precisely the kind of commonsense approach to making a living we try to encourage.) Toward that end, Mikala filled out the application, jumped through all the necessary hoops, and signed the S.W.E.A.T. Pledge, as all applicants must.
According to our internal ranking system, which is inherently subjective and relative to each batch of new applicants, Mikala scored a 94, and was awarded $2,100.00, or roughly 80% of what she asked for. This is typical of the average percentage awarded to an excellent applicant. As a rule, we almost never award the entire amount requested. We want our recipients to have some skin in the game, and we encourage all applicants to apply for additional scholarship funds elsewhere, which Mikala did. But in this case, if I had it to do over again, I think I’d have awarded Mikala the full $2,700.00. Why? Because this woman is precisely why I award work ethic scholarships in the first place, as recent headlines prove. Headlines all over the country that identify Mikala Sposito as the sole welder to represent Team USA in the upcoming @WorldSkills Competition in Shanghai.
This is a very big deal. The World Skills competition is often referred to as the Olympics of the skilled trades, so it looks like Mikala’s dream is coming true after all. And it seems to me her journey is worth a brief encapsulation. Before she applied for a scholarship from mikeroweWORKS, Mikala demonstrated an affinity for welding in SkillsUSA. As a senior at Dexter High School, she won 1st Place at the SkillsUSA Michigan high school competition and went on to place 14th nationally. Then, as a freshman at Washtenaw Community College, she repeated her success by taking 1st Place in the Michigan college division. She then advanced to nationals, where she finished 8th in the country. That earned her an invitation to the Team USA pre-trials, which whittled the nation's top 16 young welders down to three. At the final USA Weld Trials at the Robotics Technology Park in Huntsville, Alabama, each competitor was evaluated on precision, safety, technical execution, craftsmanship, and multi-process capabilities under extreme time constraints. Mikala Sposito took the Gold, officially becoming the first woman to represent the United States in welding at WorldSkills. Next week, she’ll face off against the absolute best of the best from all over the world.
I should point out that Mikala would prefer it if the press didn’t make a big deal of her gender, and I completely understand. (She’s a welder – not a “weld-her.”) But today, the industry is in desperate need of proof that women can and do excel in the trades. Nationally, just 4.3% of tradespeople are female. At mikeroweWORKS, our female applicants are closer to 20%, but I assure you that percentage could be much higher. Companies are anxious to recruit talented welders of any gender, and women need to understand and believe the opportunities are real. Mikala prove that in spades, and I want to offer her my sincere congratulations, and invite all of you to do the same. Because Mikala Sposito is exactly what our country needs a lot more of. People who understand that talent is never enough to compensate for laziness.
In her application, she wrote, “Hard work beats talent any day of the week, and nobody is going to outwork me. Period.”
She also connected with every point of the S.W.E.A.T. Pledge but said the final tenet resonated with her the most. “Some people choose to be lazy. Some people choose to sleep in. I choose to work my butt off.”
My favorite quote, however, is Mikala’s response to seasoned professionals who see her wield a torch and call her a “natural.”
“I’m not a natural,” she says. Far from it. And none of this came easy. I worked and trained 60-80 hours a week for two years to get here.”
Regardless of what happens in Shanghai, the job offers are already piling up, including the most recent from SpaceX. She hasn’t graduated yet, but the future looks bright, and I for one would not bet against her.
PS. I never do this, but since my name is in the title of the foundation, I suppose I can. Mikala – please accept the additional $600 you requested from mikeroweWORKS two years ago. Shanghai is expensive, and since you’re representing all of us, we’d like to provide you with a little walking around money. The check is in the mail.
Now…go get the gold!
Treason.
The CIA along with Hillary Clinton were desperately trying to silence Julian Assange and smother Wikileaks for exposing all of their ruthless operations and crimes, especially about Hillary Clinton, Podesta, Obama, and many others.
Hillary Clinton allegedly asked, "Can't We Just drone This Guy?"
Not only was Assange himself targeted, but the CIA also targeted and harassed his wife, and was even trying to gather a DNA sample from his infant child's "nappy."
They will do whatever it takes to get their way or to silence the ones exposing the truth, and the mainstream media is just another extension of that process.
If they spied on Trump, set him up with a fabricated narrative about Russia, silenced whistleblowers like Seth Rich, attempted to assassinate Trump, tried to bankrupt him, went after Assange, and countless others, what makes you think they wouldn't steal an election if their grip on power and control was at risk?

Sixty-two years and $22 trillion later, the U.S. poverty rate sits at roughly 11 percent, almost identical to where Lyndon Johnson found it in 1964. The government ran the most expensive social experiment in human history and produced nothing measurable. Bureaucracies perpetuate themselves, and this policy worked exactly as designed.
When Washington transfers purchasing power to the poor through SNAP, Medicaid, housing vouchers, and 126 other overlapping programs, it doesn't eliminate scarcity; it relocates decision-making from individuals to administrators. Those administrators develop career interests in perpetuating dependency, because a solved problem eliminates their department.
Free market thinkers identified this perverse incentive structure before Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act. Every dollar taxed from productive activity carries a deadweight cost before it reaches anyone's dinner table.
Capital formation lifts people out of poverty. You build wealth through savings, property rights, and voluntary exchange, none of which $22 trillion in redistributed spending actually produced.

Ex-CIA Dir. John Brennan, and Ex-DNI James Clapper went on live television, with the now deceased Hollywood film director Rob Reiner, and stated to the world that President Trump was colluding with the Russians when the entire time they knew it was all a lie because they were the ones who made it up in the first place.
Once again, they used the mainstream media, a Hollywood director, and staged an entire special on live tv and lied to the world.
Every single one of these people committed sedition and treason against a president of the United States and should be serving out a life sentence in prison.
If they will go through this much trouble to stage this against a sitting president, you have to ask yourself, what else have they staged and lied to us about over the decades?
