No truer words….
“An entire generation of spoiled brats who’ve never built anything, stand on the crumbling empire they don’t deserve, built by great and courageous men who are now judged through the moral lens of the softest dorks living in the easiest times.”
~Spencer Pratt
Political correctness with dorks with man buns, colored hair and bull rings…

Calling Jesus a socialist because He told us to care for the needy and poor is lazy work and a complete misuse of scripture.
He NEVER told us to enact laws that STEAL from one person to PAY for another.
Those are two completely different things!

Lately, I feel like I’m living in the Book of Malachi.
Malachi was the last prophet of the Old Testament, speaking to an Israel that had grown so accustomed to its own wickedness that it could scarcely recognize it anymore. The priests dishonored God, the people broke their covenants, and the faithful wondered why the wicked prospered while they suffered.
I look at America today and find the parallels increasingly difficult to ignore.
Our political leaders betray the people they’ve sworn to serve, our churches bend over backward to accommodate the very sins they’re supposed to condemn, and our society celebrates depravity while treating righteousness as something to be ashamed of.
But there’s something about Malachi that I think every Christian struggling with the state of the world needs to remember.
For all his warnings about Israel’s corruption, Malachi ended with an extraordinary promise: God would send a messenger to prepare the way for the coming of the Lord Himself.
And then, for roughly four hundred years, there was silence.
Generations lived and died without seeing that promise fulfilled. Israel endured foreign domination and humiliation, while the faithful could only wonder when God would deliver His people.
What they couldn’t have known was that God was preparing the greatest act of redemption in human history.
When the appointed time arrived, John the Baptist emerged from the wilderness calling Israel to repentance, just as Malachi had foretold. Then came Jesus Christ, not to establish the earthly kingdom so many expected, but to accomplish something infinitely greater.
Through His sacrifice on the Cross and His resurrection, Christ conquered sin and death, offering eternal life to all who put their faith in Him.
Those generations couldn’t see Bethlehem, Calvary, or the empty tomb. What seemed like centuries of unanswered prayers was leading toward the fulfillment of God’s greatest promise.
And I think there’s an important lesson for us in that.
We aren’t promised that America will endure forever, that our present troubles will disappear, or that God will deliver the earthly victories we desire. But we ARE promised that He remains sovereign, that His purposes cannot be frustrated by the wickedness of men, and that He works all things for the good of those who love Him.
So when you find yourself despairing over the state of our country, remember Malachi. God’s faithfulness isn’t measured by the prosperity of our nation or the righteousness of our leaders, and His purposes don’t cease simply because we cannot comprehend them.
Our responsibility is to repent of our sins, remain faithful to His commandments, raise our children to know Him, and stand for what is righteous regardless of what the world thinks of us.
Those Israelites couldn’t see what God was preparing through their suffering.
But we have something they didn’t.
We know what came after Malachi. We know Christ.
And if God could bring the salvation of mankind out of a world seemingly lost to wickedness, why should we imagine that the troubles of our own age are beyond His providence?
Christ is King. And if God is for us, who can be against us!

Democrats were practically measuring the White House for new drapes after the midterms, celebrating like Trump had already signed the surrender papers and agreed to spend his remaining two years begging Chuck Schumer for permission to govern.
Then Trump appointed Stephen Miller chief of staff.
Holy fucking hell. Somebody forgot to tell the surrender committee its services weren't required.
Schumer immediately denounced Miller as the architect of Trump's barbaric immigration policies. Hakeem Jeffries called him a dangerous xenophobe. Apparently, enforcing immigration laws is such a horrifying concept that Democrats now treat the guy responsible for implementing them like a war criminal.
And the best part? They keep calling Miller an "architect" as though identifying the man who helped build Trump's immigration agenda somehow disqualifies him from continuing the fucking job.
Then the television networks joined the funeral procession for Washington's imaginary moderation era.
ABC warned that Trump was preparing for battle. NBC fretted about hard-line policies. CBS actually dragged gender into the appointment because Miller replaced Susie Wiles.
For fuck's sake. Trump changes his chief of staff and these clowns immediately start searching the office furniture for evidence of misogyny.
But leave it to Thom Tillis to deliver the most pathetic performance.
The retiring Republican senator ran to CNN, called Miller the "worst of all possible choices," and whined about needing an olive branch for Democrats.
An olive branch? After Democrats spent years trying to politically destroy Trump?
Tillis apparently thinks Republican leadership consists of presenting your balls to the opposition on a silver platter and thanking them for the opportunity.
That's the magnificent fucking contrast here. Democrats demand submission. The media demands moderation. Establishment Republicans demand appeasement.
And Trump hands the West Wing to one of the most relentless defenders of his immigration agenda.
Washington spent the week preparing a beautiful little surrender ceremony, complete with bipartisan speeches, media applause, and Republican cowards volunteering to carry the white flags.
Trump looked at their carefully prepared documents, handed Stephen Miller the keys, and effectively told the entire miserable committee to go fuck itself.
The surrender papers just became kindling.

To my friends on the left.
You're about to be sold the most elegant trap in modern history. It will come wrapped in everything you care about: the planet, workers, justice, the climate. If you buy it, it will deliver the exact opposite of everything you've ever fought for.
Let me show you where it comes from.
In 1944, two philosophers of the Frankfurt School, Horkheimer and Adorno, wrote that reason and technology, the tools that were supposed to free humanity, had turned into tools of domination. Twenty years later, Marcuse argued that modern technology was the most sophisticated system of social control ever built. Brilliant men, with a real insight. But the lesson a whole generation of intellectuals took from them was simple: progress is suspect, and the machine is the enemy.
In 1968, the Club of Rome was founded. It was a small circle of industrialists, diplomats and scientists. Notice who was in the room. No workers, no farmers, no one from the slums. In 1972 they published The Limits to Growth. The message was that if humanity keeps growing, it collapses. So slow down, consume less, have fewer children, accept less.
Around the same time, Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb predicted that hundreds of millions would starve to death in the 1970s.
Here's what actually happened. The Green Revolution fed billions. The mass famines never came. In 1980 the economist Julian Simon bet Ehrlich that resources would get cheaper, not scarcer, and he won. Extreme poverty went from more than a third of humanity in 1990 to under one in ten. That didn't come from degrowth. It came from growth, energy and technology.
The pessimists were wrong about almost everything. But they won something more important than the argument. They won the institutions: UN agencies, NGOs, university departments, think tanks, Brussels. Nobody needed to coordinate. The ideas simply became the water everyone swims in. Growth is guilt. Technology is danger. The answer is always less.
Less for you, that is. Never for the people at Davos who fly private to discuss your carbon footprint.
Now watch what happens with AI. They'll connect it to the planet. Data centers drink water, burn gas and raise your electricity bill. Some of that is locally true, and the people living next to those sites deserve to be heard. Last March, Bernie Sanders and AOC proposed a national moratorium on new AI data centers, backed by hundreds of organizations.
So ask the oldest question on the left: who benefits?
A moratorium on new data centers freezes the ones that already exist. Google, Microsoft, Amazon and Meta already built theirs. A moratorium doesn't stop Big Tech. It crowns Big Tech. The startups, the public universities, the open-source labs, the countries of the Global South that were about to build their own are the ones who never get to. It's the greatest gift ever offered to an oligarchy, wrapped in green paper.
And here is what nobody tells you. AI isn't the planet's problem. It's the fastest path we have to solving the planet's problems.
AI is already controlling the plasma inside experimental fusion reactors. It has predicted the structure of nearly every known protein, which opens the door to enzymes that eat plastic and crops that need less water and less fertilizer. It has proposed hundreds of thousands of new stable materials for better batteries and cheaper solar. It forecasts weather and balances electric grids so renewables can actually work at scale.
Every problem you care about is, at its core, an intelligence problem. Clean energy, food, water, disease, poverty. Make intelligence abundant and those problems become solvable. Make it scarce and the solutions belong to whoever owns it.
That's the real trap. Fear of AI won't make AI disappear. It will only decide who owns it.
A world where intelligence is rationed creates a new aristocracy. On one side, a small class with unlimited cognitive labor at its command. On the other, everyone else, dependent on that class for their health, their education, their job, their permission to speak. No chains. Just dependency. That's how every modern form of servitude has worked, and the left used to understand that better than anyone.
Everything the left has ever wanted has never been closer: the end of poverty, healthcare and education for every human being, workers freed from exhausting labor, a planet that can breathe. Marx dreamed of a society where you could hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon and criticize after dinner. That isn't a world of scarcity. It's a world of abundance. Abundance is the only thing that has ever freed anyone.
So stay on the left if you want. Keep fighting for the poor, for workers, for the planet. Just fight with the most powerful tool humanity has ever been handed, not against it.
Because the people asking you to give it up already have theirs.
In the next ten years, humanity will make one choice that decides the next thousand.
Option A: an Orwellian world run by a tiny hyperclass that controls AI, owns every resource, and turns the rest of us into permanent dependents.
Option B: for the first time in history, a world where the systemic corruption that has ruled us for decades simply stops being possible.
Yesterday I wrote that Milei and Bukele exposed the empire of lies. Javier Milei reposted it. Today I want to explain why that post was only the beginning, and why I've never been more optimistic.
If you're on the left, or even the far left, read this one to the end. I'm not trying to convert you. The stakes are your future too.
Start from first principles. A system produces exactly what it rewards.
For decades, the Western system has been captured by one worldview: administrations, universities, NGOs, media, international institutions. The left didn't win the argument. It won the hiring committees.
Once a system is captured, its incentives flip.
You don't get promoted for solving problems. You get promoted for managing them. A solved problem kills a budget line. A managed problem renews it every year.
You don't succeed by telling the truth. You succeed by saying the right words. So hypocrisy becomes a career skill. The professor who preaches equality and runs the most closed network in the country. The politician who votes for open borders and lives where none of it ever reaches him.
You don't build fair systems. You build systems that look fair and quietly pay the people who run them. Inflation is a tax on the poor that funds the state. Programs fund the consultants who design more programs.
That's what "systemic" means. Nobody has to be evil. Honest people inside the machine either adapt or leave. After forty years, the ones still there are the ones who adapted.
Here's the irony. The first countries to break free were the ones at the very bottom.
Argentina was bankrupt. El Salvador was a graveyard. The system had nothing left to promise them, and that's exactly why they woke up. When the lie stops paying, people stop believing it.
No civilization is dead as long as its people can still see the problem clearly. Rock bottom is often where the rebound starts.
Now the West is caught in a vise.
On one side, AI. A technology that exposes managed incompetence. When a model can read a 2,000-page law, audit a national budget and compare outcomes across 50 countries in seconds, "it's complicated" stops working. The expert class loses its monopoly on knowledge.
On the other side, a generation of tech builders who think from first principles and don't owe their careers to the system. They have more capital, more talent and more reach than most countries. And they've seen up close how the machine works.
Put the two together and the old system is close to checkmate. It can't compete on results. It can't hide behind complexity. It can't control the narrative anymore.
So what does a system do when it can't win? It tries to own the thing that's beating it.
Listen to Marc Andreessen. He has said publicly that in 2024 he sat with Biden administration officials who told him AI would be two or three big companies working hand in hand with the government, that investors shouldn't even bother funding AI startups, and that parts of the underlying math could be classified the way nuclear physics was in the Cold War. He walked out and endorsed Trump. Former Biden officials now say that's not what was said. Read both versions and decide who you believe.
The logic doesn't depend on one lunch, though. Control three companies and you control the models. Control the models and you control what billions of people read, ask, learn and are allowed to say. Add a digital ID, a programmable currency and the scanning of private messages that Europe keeps putting back on the table. Then you don't need a Ministry of Truth anymore. A compliance department is enough.
1984 with a better UX.
And last Tuesday, Democrats took back Congress. This isn't theoretical anymore. The keys to the house are on the table.
Now imagine we don't hand them over.
Intelligence becomes almost free. Expertise stops being a privilege. A kid in a village in Brittany or a suburb of Lagos gets the same doctor, the same lawyer, the same tutor as a billionaire's son. The cost of producing almost everything collapses. And systemic corruption becomes nearly impossible, because anyone can audit every budget, every law and every promise, instantly.
For the first time in human history, a society that could be truly equal. The old left version was equality by sharing scarcity. This one is equality through abundance. A world where poverty stops being a law of nature.
Which is exactly what the left always said it wanted.
So to my friends on the left, one honest question. Which side actually leads there? The side that wants AI open, cheap and in everyone's hands? Or the side that wants it locked inside three companies and a regulator?
Milei and Bukele proved the impossible was possible at the scale of a country. AI is offering the same thing at the scale of civilization.
All we have to do is not give the keys to the people who were paid to keep the problem alive.
That's the choice. And I've never been more optimistic, because for the first time, we can all see it.

This is a Christian post for anyone who voted Democrat.
Now I’ve seen a few people on my friends list and even some I’ve gone to church with at some point, talking about how they voted for Talarico. Let me be clear on one thing, Talarico is not a biblical Christian. In fact his teachings are the opposite of the Bible. Because of the things he has publicly said about God, Jesus and the church, I feel confident in calling him an anti-Christ. I’m not calling him the beast from Revelation. He is one of the anti-Christs Jesus mentioned.
He came to divide and destroy the church. But the actual case is, these anti-Christs are actually separating the wheat from the weeds. In these last days, God is putting division between those who truly follow him and those who follow their own idea of who God should be, and merely claim to be a Christian.
Now, I don’t particularly care for any politician in the Republican Party. I cannot vouch that one of them are Christians. What I can say is that standing for biblical marriage, standing against abortion, standing against promotion of homosexuality and trans promotion is the platform of the Republican Party, and those are biblical values. that’s what I voted for. No man is my savior except Jesus Christ, the son of God. The immigration subject could be done better from both sides.
The point is, the Democratic Party in their own words stand for abortion even after birth. Exalting homosexuality and trans surgeries for kids. Prosecuting parents who refuse their children the right to transition and prosecuting anyone who speaks the Bible against homosexuality. Several liberal states have court cases pending on these subjects right now, including Maine, Oregon and California. You have ushered in the Islamic faith, which is in direct opposition to Christianity. If you call yourself a Christian and you voted for these Democrats, shame on you. You have sold your soul for the sinful promises of the world. You cannot serve God and do the work of Satan. If you supported Talarico or any of the other Democrats, you have now taken part in the murder of innocent babies, you are now a supporter of trans and gay lifestyles. You have become an an advocate of hate against biblical marriage. Who says so? The Bible says so!
I challenge any of you to give scripture that backs you voting and having any part in the things the Democrat party stands for.
“If anyone comes to your meeting and does not teach the truth about Christ, don’t invite that person into your home or give any kind of encouragement. Anyone who encourages such people becomes a partner in their evil work.”
2 John 1:10-11 NLT
“Let God’s curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you. I say again what we have said before: If anyone preaches any other Good News than the one you welcomed, let that person be cursed.”
Galatians 1:8-9 NLT
“Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, he abandoned them to their foolish thinking and let them do things that should never be done. Their lives became full of every kind of wickedness, sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, quarreling, deception, malicious behavior, and gossip. They are backstabbers, haters of God, insolent, proud, and boastful. They invent new ways of sinning, and they disobey their parents. They refuse to understand, break their promises, are heartless, and have no mercy. They know God’s justice requires that those who do these things deserve to die, yet they do them anyway. Worse yet, they encourage others to do them, too.”
Romans 1:28-32 NLT

The biggest winners yesterday were the elderly.
They don’t have much time left anyway and they got to see America at its finest hour.
Now America is over. If there’s anyone I envy in America, it’s the elderly. People in their 80s and 90s.
They won’t have to see the collapse of America.
It’s sad for their grandkids though who now have no future in America. But we all knew America would end someday.
The experiment is over. This is why I always laughed at the posts online when the GOP said “America will never be a communist country.”
Yes we will. In less than 5 years. Wake up.

The left will celebrate today. The right will make excuses or move on to 2028.
But faithful Christians are in mourning. For us it’s not about a party, but the glory of God.
Killing babies up to birth? Overthrowing biblical marriage?
Many of us will lay before the Lord today in repentance for our rebellion and hard-heartedness. For failing in teaching our children and leading our homes well. For allowing the church to be captured by gross and perverted ideologies.
Oh Lord hear. Forgive us.

America has now officially positioned herself as Anti-Christian, Antisemitic, and Anti-Israel.

It was rich. It was powerful. It was famous. By worldly standards, Nineveh had everything going for it.
Located near modern-day Mosul, Iraq, Nineveh was the capital of the mighty Assyrian Empire. Its walls stretched nearly eight miles. Its magnificent palaces boasted 70 rooms, elaborate reliefs depicting military conquests, and a library containing tens of thousands of cuneiform texts, including the famous Epic of Gilgamesh.
One palace relief depicted the Assyrian conquest of Lachish, a heavily fortified Judean city. The images showed siege ramps, conquered prisoners, and naked Judean defenders impaled on stakes. The infamous brutality of Assyria, including against God's people, was on full display.
So when Nineveh was conquered and burned by the Babylonians and Medes in 612 BC, no tears were shed in Israel. The prophet Nahum foretells the city's demise in unforgettable poetic images. His closing words say it all: “All who hear the news about you clap their hands over you. For upon whom has not come your unceasing evil?” (Nahum 3:19).
By worldly standards, Nineveh had everything going for it. And yet it also had nothing going for it.
Was it rich? Yes. Powerful? Absolutely. Beautiful, cultured, and intellectually sophisticated? Certainly. But apart from the brief episode of repentance recorded in Jonah, the city was awash in brutality, idolatry, conquest, and powerlust. Like Sodom and Babylon, Nineveh remains an ugly icon of rebellion against the true God.
Nineveh is a lasting object lesson for Christians. What impresses the world, what nations and rulers celebrate as greatness, is often repugnant in the eyes of Christ. Ironically, Nineveh was never more impressive than when its inhabitants were clothed in sackcloth, crying out in repentance to the God who showed them mercy.
Nations fall. Cities crumble. Leaders die. Power, prestige, and wealth will all fade away. None can satisfy our deepest needs.
But God's Word endures forever. His love never fails. His truth will never rust or fade away. Let us stake our lives on the gifts of Christ, for they alone will endure and satisfy.

This is the rise of the beast kingdom.
As I have said many times: October 7th ends in the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
America will do nothing. The world will do nothing when Gog invades Israel from the north.
We have an Islamic government, a government of Sodomites, a government given over to every form of sexual wickedness, and an antisemitic government—coming fully into power on January 3rd.
I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. Joel 3:2 KJV
And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land. Ezekiel 38:16 KJV

And now we understand the absolutely rabid obsession with destroying Pete Hegseth.
I’ve been in the Army since before 9/11. Served under many secretaries.
Only in the past 18 months have I experienced:
>politicians warning me not to follow illegal orders
>billboards outside military bases telling me to report war crimes
>the media attacking anyone who has a positive thing to say about the man, and defending anyone who hates him
>stunning volume of leaks from senior officials trying to undermine him, and the lionizing of the leakers by the press
>being called a war criminal myself, hundreds of times a day
>a sustained media narrative portraying virtually every firing or senior officer removal as a “purge”
>public efforts by retired officers, advocacy groups, and political figures to mobilize service members and military communities against administration policies
>influential “Americans” publicly cheering for Iran
This is just to name a few. I’ve NEVER experienced anything like this before. And it’s becoming abundantly clear that the concerted effort to divide the military from within was stunted when Hegseth took over. Anyone desiring color revolution needs control of the military. That’s color revolution 101.
Is it starting to make sense yet? Now you see the obsession over him in particular. It’s not a coincidence. And it damn sure isn’t because of his culture war.
It’s because by all objective metrics, he runs a military that snatches rogue leaders from their beds, destroys entire militaries, and successfully mobilizes assets to save one downed pilot in the middle of enemy territory by building an Air Force base… in the middle of enemy territory. Secures the border, dominates the hemisphere. Hunts drug cartels. The list goes on.
He is by all meaningful accounts, effective at wielding the machine. And that is why they drool at the thought of removing him.
In years past you’d be hard pressed to find a junior Soldier who knew the name of the cabinet secretary above them.
Every one of them knows Pete Hegseth.
Every one.

An Open Letter to President Donald J. Trump
Mr. President,
I write to ask you to consider something that has nothing to do with party and everything to do with a human life.
Congresswoman Haley Stevens of Michigan did something rare in American politics today. She stood beside your Senate nominee, Mike Rogers, and endorsed him against Abdul El-Sayed, the man who narrowly defeated her in August. She did not do it with a press release or a quiet phone call. She did it on camera, at a church in Detroit, with her fiancé beside her, and she explained why. She said the Democratic nominee told her she was no longer welcome in his campaign. She said she does not stand with Hasan Piker. She said ninety percent of her votes still go to Democrats — but not this one, not for Senate, because, in her words, we cannot stand for hate.
That is not the behavior of a traitor. That is the behavior of a Democrat who refuses to let her party be defined by hate. She is not leaving. She said it herself — “I’m still a very proud Democrat. I still very much believe in everything I voted for and said.” Ninety percent of her votes still go to Democrats. What she isolated is one race, one nominee, and one line she would not cross: an outside ad blaming Jewish support for Israel for Michigan’s grocery bills, and a campaign surrogate whose rhetoric she has called out since the primary. Her words were not an attack on the party. They were a defense of it. “Who we are as Michiganders is not hate,” she said, “and is not what we are getting from our Democratic nominee right now.” That is a woman protecting the brand she spent her career building, not burning it down.
Here is the part that makes the timing matter. If El-Sayed wins Tuesday, the sting of her endorsement fades into a footnote — a Democrat who broke on one issue in one race. But if he loses, and her endorsement is what tipped a seat that decides control of the Senate, the story changes completely. Then she is not a dissenter. She is the reason. The entire Democratic leadership, the donors, the operatives who spent tens of millions trying to seize that chamber — they will need someone to blame, and she will be the most visible target available. That is when the abstract rage becomes specific, and specific is what gets people hurt.
My concern is what happens to people who do that. You know better than anyone what the climate looks like when a political figure breaks with the machine. You stood on a stage in Butler with blood on your face, and two months later a man with a rifle was caught waiting outside your golf course in Florida. The people who cheered those attempts did not come from nowhere. They came from the same climate that now surrounds Haley Stevens.
And here is the part that should give any president pause. When Barack Obama was president-elect in two thousand eight, Valerie Jarrett was initially the name coming out of his circle for the Senate seat he was leaving. Rahm Emanuel pushed her in calls with the governor's office before Obama told him to stop naming one candidate. When Jarrett stepped aside for a White House role, Emanuel sent over a list of alternatives. Blagojevich didn't play along the way they wanted, and within weeks Patrick Fitzgerald — Comey et al. — had collected wiretaps for the purpose of selecting snippets to take him down. That is how this faction handles a Democrat who won't fall in line.
Now consider what Haley Stevens faces. If El-Sayed loses, as I’m inclined to believe he very well may, the anger will not stay inside the Democratic Party. It will seek targets. Some of it will come from operatives and proxies of the Obama-Bush machine — people with resources, organization, and a demonstrated willingness to weaponize institutions. Some of it will come from lone actors in the base, the kind of supporter who doesn’t need a handler to act on rage...
