Cannot repeat this enough. Only 15% of Hispanics said immigration was their top issue. And the GOP won 61% of their vote . In an election where we suffered a historic wipeout. Immigration remains the GOP's best issue with virtually ALL major voting groups.
And people still think the GOP lost Hispanic voters over “deportations”…if that were true, more than 15% of Hispanics would say immigration was their top issue. And 61% of them wouldn’t have voted red. Compromise on the healthcare subsidy if you want Hispanics, NOT amnesty!

First, @romanhelmetguy has a tweet for everything. Second, you can navigate this transition with a network of like-minded and able frens, or you experience it while being disorganized and isolated. The choice is yours, and it will make all the difference!
It feels like the midterms ended the "Trump Era," and this is the real end of the 20th century. Trump is the ultimate 20th century man: a boomer narcissist, real estate & casino & TV & golf guy, multiple wives & kids, oddly sincere with some values but also a total bullshitter. He's post-WW2 ethos played out to its fullest expression. A new era is here, no one knows whats coming, but it's going to be different. The End of "The End of History." I'm long term very optimistic, but also as I've been telling you all for years: this transition is going to be EXTREMELY PAINFUL for most people. Very few are ready, and even the ones ready don't know what's going to happen. H/t to @rizomaschool @blockhead4000 for the idea.

YES. Here I am Lord, send me! Let me bear what needs to be done, that my children may live in a more righteous world.
For the sake of my children. I beg you, Lord, may it happen in my time.

Friendly reminder that we win in the end. And if we haven’t yet won (and we most certainly haven’t) then it isn’t the end.

This video has haunted me since I first saw it last year. I'm not a veteran, so I can't imagine the pain this aged hero feels, but I can understand it. I pray many feel the same pain, and then choose to do something with it.
Veterans Day is increasingly consequential. Across the West, millions of veterans (from Normandy to Kandahar) are asking the same question: What was it all for? A British veteran said it plainly through tears: “Rows and rows of white tombs, for what? A country of today? No, I’m sorry. The sacrifice wasn’t worth the result. I fought for freedom, and it’s worse now than when I fought.” You’d do well to listen to the warriors. Nothing cuts deeper than when a Soldier steps back and sees the 50,000 foot view of his war, and wonders what he actually defended. A warrior fights for one thing above all: home. Even on some foreign shore, his thoughts drift back there. When he leaves the uniform, he hopes it was worth it. But when he returns to find his home unrecognizable…its values inverted, its spirit fading…..something ancient stirs. It is the pain that forged nations. The same pain that once sent men to battle. Beware that pain. Because when enough warriors start feeling it again, history doesn’t repeat itself. It answers. And it does so with a thunderous clash. A clash so loud, the whole world stops dead in its tracks.

In other words, Pete Hegseth is completely vindicated in her removal since the Admiral immediately transitioned to defiant partisanship once the mask was off.
When Pete Hegseth fired Vice Admiral Nancy LaCore after 35 years of service, he thought he was ending her career. Instead, he opened a door, and thanks to his recklessness, LaCore is headed to Congress to hold him accountable.

Pray for Charlie's wife, children, parents. This unbelievable wait they'll have to endure is hearbreaking.
STATEMENT FROM THE KIRK FAMILY: Today's decision to delay the trial of the man accused of murdering our beloved Charlie until at least June 2028, is deeply disappointing. While nothing will restore the time we have lost with Charlie, every additional day without justice prolongs our family's pain and forces us to wait even longer for accountability. As we continue down this difficult road, we remain deeply grateful for the love, prayers, and support that have sustained our family through these painful months.

More really, really good news. Miller is bringing in the "A" team and I expect we will see vastly improved results.

Also, you know who else is watching what you do at church and who might be impacted by it? YOUR KIDS!! It is good for them to see mom and dad worshiping together!
This whole business of announcing that you don’t sit with your spouse at church in order to be more “welcoming” seems to me a new form of Pharisaism. It feels like @TGC and @CTmagazine publish these articles and parade the fact that they don’t sit with their spouses at church in order to suggest that they are somehow more holy or spiritual by doing something unnatural that scripture never asks for— separating husband from wife in church services. A lot more that could be said about this both stupid and destructive advice, but this is one of them.

Here is a simple way to understand how modern Christians treat the bible when it comes to men and women - If it is a command to men... it is to be obeyed, no exceptions, to its maximal most expansive reading possible, at all places and times... If it is a command to women... it is to be ignored, all exceptions, and it should be minimized because every such command was only given to a particular person or place or people, and it has no force or bearing beyond that for all other times and places.
You can judge Christians by how they deal with Titus 2. If they can’t acknowledge that Paul directs women’s work toward the home & children, then they reject the very words of Scripture or lack courage (or both). This is embarrassing from P&R.

After Jay Jones won by 6 points in 2025, nothing surprises me anymore. We on the Right have tried to moralize about these deranged takes (which have become increasingly normalized on the Left) in the hopes that it will somehow magically wake people up and convince them not to vote for Democrats. But it falls flat every single time because we live in a post-discourse age. No one cares anymore about what fate may befall those on the other side of the aisle because when have they ever shown any concern about what happens to you? Everything that is going wrong in America falls at their feet. They're the enemy. There is no longer any consideration given to the greater good or the betterment of the country, only in getting even with those who have wronged you. My personal well of empathy has completely run dry at this point. I can no longer bring myself to care about people who have repeatedly demonstrated that they'd laugh or cheer if someone like me were killed. Many others feel the same way, and the future looks bleak.
Shelly Headen (D) flipped HD-62 in the North Carolina House. In September, it was revealed that she wished for attacks on US soil in GOP-leaning states, compared herself to Jesus Christ, and more. projects.statenavigate.com/2…

"The perfect boomer tweet doesnt exi. . ."
Folks, I have spent literally the entire day trying to get someone at AOL to unlock my email. For the last eight hours, I have been told that the issue has been escalated to supervisors who would contact me. I haven't heard a thing. You would think that, since I'm one of the last human beings on the face of the Earth still using AOL, they would take care of this. You'd be wrong. So, once this gets resolved, hopefully before the next presidential election, I'm dropping them. (I kept them this long out of convenience, but now I have no reason to keep them.) I'll see you on the radio at 6 p.m., at which time I will address this further.

I keep staring at this tweet like it’s an abstract painting. Every time I look at it, I discover another layer. Mark Levin is still using AOL. Mark Levin got locked out of AOL. Mark Levin spent eight hours arguing with AOL tech support, presumably ON A TELEPHONE. And now Mark Levin is going to discuss his AOL troubles on his RADIO SHOW. This isn’t a tweet. It’s a historical artifact out of a 30 year old time capsule. I wonder if he sent it to everyone on Friendster

Honestly impeachment is just a rite of passage at this point. If you aren’t getting impeached, are you even trying? In an age of endless lawfare, it’s become a pre-requisite for future high command for those who actually love their country.

Anything short of mass deportations is de facto amnesty. If an illegal alien can spend decades living in America, find work, collect welfare, rent an apartment, open bank accounts, take out loans, send his children to public schools, travel outside the country and legally return, serve jail time with no fear of deportation, and raise a family whose American-born children are citizens, what exactly is he missing? A passport and the right to vote? BIG WHOOP. Even if not a single illegal alien ever casts a fraudulent ballot (LOL), their American-born children will eventually be voting anyway. And somehow, Republican politicians STILL cannot seem to comprehend that our objections to mass migration run deeper than who gets to vote for county dog catcher. At this point, these people need the Clockwork Orange treatment until they finally understand that this is an existential battle for the future of civilization, not merely a question of how we get everyone’s DMV paperwork in order. What we do now will determine the future of America, and whether the actual American people have any meaningful say in it.
