The fact that the left in America is still trying to convince us that the riots in France are nothing more than student protests over old school buildings really should tell us everything we need to know about their willingness to lie about literally anything. #mostlypeaceful

Frustrated with some Republicans in the Senate? Me too. But primaries are where you fix the party. November is where you stop the Democrats. Don't confuse the two.

🇺🇸💪💪💪

When Trump came down the escalator, the first thing he did was to identify the traitors in this party Bush and Rove were at the top of that list Now, both are supporting Democrats in Texas It's official now.... Trump was right, from day one

What’s happening in France is NOT a riot. It’s jihad and it’s coming to America if we aren’t careful.

France is learning why Egypt, Jordan, and Kuwait no longer accept Palestinian refugees…I think it's because they're Islamophobic.

If the chaos in France has taught the world one thing, it’s this👇🏼

@McCormickProf Find me the Republican Senator who said anyone should be prosecuted to strike fear into youths just for working for Obama or Biden.

Drug needles on the banks of the Clark Fork River. Women fleeing domestic violence unable to walk into the thrift store due to transient crime. Transients defecating in the water fountains in city parks in Missoula. This was one of the more telling moments in our last debate. My opponent BRAGGED about how he lobbied to give YOUR MONEY to transients. And the transient crisis got WORSE. Then he took taxpayer dollars as a lobbyist for the City of Missoula to raise your property taxes AND stick you with a sales tax. Crazy! I fought back against all of it.

I'm frankly amazed that anyone, any American, would vote Democrat at all. I mean, can't they see Europe burning?

As Secretary Rubio warned in July, we are witnessing the resurgence of FAR-LEFT POLITICAL TERRORISM. Secretary Rubio presciently hosted a Ministerial on this because this threat is transnational and organized in networks that cross borders, share resources, and coordinate violence. Those who excuse, normalize and legitimize it deserve unequivocal condemnation. If you claim to stand for working people, STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR THOSE WHO DESTROY EVERYTHING WORKING PEOPLE HAVE BUILT. Unlike their apologists, we believe destruction and chaos are NOT legitimate forms of political expression. Arson is not argument. Intimidation is not debate. Terror is not justice. And a campaign to destroy Western civilization is NOT a protest against the price of groceries. Every business burned is someone's life's work destroyed. Every neighborhood terrorized is a community robbed of peace. Under President Trump and Secretary Rubio, we will never surrender American communities to organized political terror. We will dismantle terrorist networks that threaten our people, disrupt their financing, and bring their perpetrators to justice. Our streets belong to our citizens. Our future belongs to our children. And this country belongs to the people who built it—not transnational mobs that seek to burn it down.

I’ll never understand letting hatred of a politician consume your life. I thought Biden was an idiot, but I didn’t spend every waking moment screaming about him or destroying friendships and family relationships over it. If you let a politician you’ve never met cost you people you actually love, it’s time to take a step back.

On my way to the office this morning, I passed a group of young people protesting, a Palestinian flag draped over their shoulders. And I asked myself a question I can't shake: why does this generation always fall into the same trap? No matter the history. No matter the context. Even the ones from wealthy families, who went to the best schools, who were dealt every good card. Always the same trap. I don't think it's stupidity. I think it's a mechanism. And a mechanism can be taken apart, piece by piece. A. The observation: everything the state touches becomes unaffordable. Look at economist Mark Perry's famous chart, the one people call "the chart of the century." It tracks US prices since 2000. At the top, what explodes: hospital services, college tuition, textbooks, childcare, housing. Increases of +100%, +150%, up to +250%, far above general inflation. At the bottom, what collapses: TVs, software, phones, toys, clothing. A TV today costs a fraction of what it did in 2000, for an infinitely better product. Look at what separates the two groups. It isn't technology. It isn't complexity. It's one variable: how much the state is involved. At the top, sectors that are subsidized, regulated, shielded from competition, where the state funds demand and blocks supply. At the bottom, sectors where companies fight every single morning to serve you better and cheaper. B. The mechanism: why it's systematic. When the state subsidizes demand without freeing supply, prices rise. Every time. Guaranteed student loans, and universities raise tuition. Housing aid plus blocked building permits, and rents skyrocket. Administered healthcare, and bureaucracy eats the budget before it ever reaches the patient. In France it's even more vicious, because the price doesn't disappear: it hides. You never see the hospital bill, you pay it through payroll contributions. You never see the cost of school, you pay it through taxes. Public spending at 57% of GDP, one of the heaviest tax burdens in the world, more than €3.4 trillion in debt. And the result? Overflowing ERs, falling PISA scores, young people who can't afford to live in the city where they work. The market didn't fail in these sectors. It was never allowed in. C. Suffering demands a culprit. A 22-year-old lives all of this in their bones. They can't find a place to live. Their degree either buries them in debt or opens no doors. The future feels blocked. That suffering is real, and I don't deny it for a second. But human beings can't stand suffering without a culprit. They need a face. A scapegoat. And this is where everything is decided: who taught them how to read the world? D. Whoever tells the story picks the villain. Schools are public. Universities are public. Culture runs on grants. Film goes through funding committees. Public broadcasting shapes the narratives. The people handing down the interpretive framework are, overwhelmingly, paid by the very system that creates the problem. Do you really think that system is going to name itself as the culprit? No. It names the capitalist. The boss. The landlord. "The rich." The multinational. The commercial West. Same role, same casting, every time. E. One lens, a thousand causes. And this brings me back to that flag. A generation taught to read every situation through a single lens, oppressor on one side, rich, Western, capitalist, oppressed on the other, will apply that lens everywhere. To housing. To climate. To conflicts on the other side of the world. The cause changes, the lens stays. That's why the trap is always the same: it's not the cause that draws them in, it's the way of thinking that was installed in them. F. The perfect inversion. Here's the irony. Capitalism is the force that drove down the price of almost everything it touched. The state is the force that blew up the price of almost everything it captured. And young people blame the first for the crimes of the second. It's like blaming the firefighter for the fire because you saw him at the scene. G. The ballot box confirms it. In the US, a few weeks out from the midterms, a large share of urban young voters is getting ready to vote Democrat for more state, more spending, more regulation. New York elected a self-described socialist mayor, carried by young voters, on promises of rent freezes and city-run grocery stores. Rent freezes, the policy that has made housing scarcer everywhere it's been tried. The cure that worsens the disease. In France, it's the same play in two acts. Part of the youth votes for the radical left, which promises more state. Another part votes for the center, which promises to "manage" the state well, and has dug the debt deeper than ever. Two different ballots, one shared assumption: the problem is the market, the solution is the state. H. The way out. These young people aren't stupid. They're right to be angry. They're just aiming at the wrong target. The day they understand that their rent, their tuition and their hospital are expensive precisely because the state runs them, their anger will change direction. They'll stop protesting against those who create. They'll start protesting against those who capture. That day, the greatest intellectual scam of our time will be over.

In honor of the BYU (Mormons) vs Notre Dame (Catholics) match-up today, let me remind everyone of some important, essential truths: - The Bible is the Word of God, consisting of 66 books, is our only rule for faith and practice, & infallible. - We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ ALONE - The Trinity is essential Christian doctrine. True Christians believe in one God, who is three Persons (Father, Son, & Holy Spirit) - Jesus is our only mediator - Jesus’ sacrifice was perfect & sufficient. No works we do can earn salvation. - Jesus was crucified, died, and rose from the dead three days later, as was prophesied. - God always existed & will always exist - After death, we either go to Heaven or Hell based whether or not we had faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. - No human has, can or will become a god.

🚨 WOW: Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado just sent a warning straight to American voters. Asked what Americans should know about socialism heading into the midterms, she said: "Communism, socialism. It brings misery, violence, separation and oppression. And once you lose your freedom, once you lose democracy, it's so hard to gain it back." Venezuela was once one of the richest countries in Latin America. Socialism wrecked it. Now people there dig through trash to eat. She said to ask any Venezuelan how their country was "deceived." Listen to her.  Free stuff always comes with a price.

Actual adults vote for Republicans. That statement may anger you, but I’ll say it again; those with a level of discernment beyond that of a child vote for Republicans. I don’t do a massive amount of politics on here, or truthfully, in real life. I have no love for politicians, they are merely a necessary evil. Why the statement? Actual adults understand a few things… The current Democratic Party refuses to accept the science of biology, stymy the flow of illegal aliens, identity voters through ID, recognize your Right to firearms (as outlined in the 2nd Amendment), and reject the ideas of Karl Marx as incongruent with the Constitution. They play games on the State level to block those who seek to reveal corruption and fraud. They literally named a law after Nick Shirley to prevent others like him from revealing massive scams in their State like he did in Minnesota. These are not the actions of rational adults, but rather emotional, power-hungry children who seek to upend our Nation as long as they personally benefit. I am under no delusion that Republicans will deliver everything I want. They have been tepid at best the past two years. I’m also no Trump sycophantic. Many of his positions would have been considered middle-ground in the 1990’s Democratic Party. He and the Party he leads have managed to deliver a few victories in areas that matter. The southern border is the most secure that it’s been in my lifetime. The NFA is currently starving for oxygen. Some common sense has been applied to preventing men from parading as women to crush their athletic dreams and act as government endorsed voyeurs in bathrooms. Trump is bombastic and publicly treats the Office of the Presidency as a celebrity position. Behind the scenes, it’s clearly different. I highly approve of some of the moves he’s made and shake my head in frustration at others. Trump is not on the ballot this election. Who is? Local representatives and managers, many House Representatives and some Senators; for some of you Mayor or County Sheriff. These are the people whose decisions will truly impact your life regardless of what the man who is not up for reelection does. Rational adults vote for the representation that doesn’t promise to steal what you have, give it to noncitizens, take away your right to self-defense, upend our founding documents, and allow the replacement of equal justice with Sharia law. The current Democratic Party endorses ideas that indoctrinate your children into ideas that prevent you from ever having grandchildren. They support that which will literally end your family line; they gain power and you lose your legacy. At this point in time, that rational option is by and large the Republican Party. Will Republicans likely fail to live up to all of their campaign promises? Beyond a doubt. A mature adult knows that and yet understands the opposite choice is guaranteed destruction. Naïve children make choices on emotions, “the feels”, promises of free stuff and believing that politicians won’t disappoint them. Rational adults stoically weigh the options based on projected course and values. The Iran war will not immediately end no matter which way you vote. Gas prices also don’t turn on a dime. No matter who you choose, inflation will not immediately disappear and Congress will spend money. I have my gripes, as do you. They are valid. National suicide is not the answer. Until the Democrats produce another JFK like option, eschew their current values and platform, you must do your job as a rational adult and block them at the voting booth and in the public square. Anything less is puerile.

Democrats will shout and scream, call you a bigot, nazi, fascist, racist, misogynist, sexist threat to democracy, then lose their ever-loving minds and call you “divisive” when you come to the logical conclusion that maybe we’re no longer “fellow citizens” simply debating issues. Understand something. The name-calling is not hyperbole, those names are what they think we actually are. The real tactic at this stage is them feigning outrage when you notice. They need you to see this as the same old debates between left and right so you don't see this for what it has become. A clash of diametrically opposed worldviews that can't coexist with one another. Don't believe me? Ok…how do you share a constitutional republic built upon Christian morality, English common law traditions, property rights, and limited government with a political movement that not only doesn't want those things, but believes they are oppressive tools of the patriarchy that must be “decolonized” and replaced with a largely Marxist interpretation of economics and a hedonistic interpretation of morality? When John Adams said our Constitution was written for a moral and religious people and is totally unsuited to the government of any other, that wasn't just flowery political talk. He wasn't making a campaign speech. He was making an observation about objective reality. And by the way, that opinion is not just shared by those of us who admire Adams, it's shared by those who hate him. The DSA agrees that our constitution is “totally unsuitable” for the country they want. Which is why they openly talk about fighting, dismantling, and replacing it. In a recent poll, 59% of Democrats said they support the DSA. So this is not some insignificant “fringe” on the left. It's the emergent wing that Democratic leadership recognizes it is dependent upon to take control. So understand that their outrage at you seeing this fight for what it is, is how they keep you from fighting it the way it needs to be fought. What's sad is their tactic might just work.

Greg Gutfeld just knocked it out of the park with his analysis of Abdul El-Sayed. Well, it’s more an indictment of the so-called “progressive” liberals who are propping him up. As Gutfeld pointed out, not only does El-Sayed have familial connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, but the organization’s website is CELEBRATING his primary victory. The terrorist organization is “using democracy” to “end democracy,” and what these liberals don't realize is that it is THEM who will be first on the chopping block when they take control. GUTFELD: “The progressives welcome the deal even though they will be the first to die when the caliphate emerges.” What is it about liberal Democrats that makes them willing to throw themselves into boiling oil? Gutfeld then laid out the three principles at stake. GUTFELD: “Equal individual rights — which they always claim they’re for — free speech — which they always claim they’re for — separate of church and state. We’ve heard that for 30, 40 years!” “They’re willing to give that all up to win the Senate seat, even though once that guy wins, he’s going to be your worst enemy.” Bang-on take from @greggutfeld.

“Muslims are only mad at America because of our foriegn policy!” Yeah I remember when Islamists started enslaving our sailors in the 1700’s because they were mad about our air force base in Qatar.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Anti-ICE agitators physically attacked federal agents in Salem, Oregon on Friday. These mobs are tracking where ICE officers are, following them, and getting in the way of operations as the agency steps up activity in the state. One agent trying to do his job should never have to fight off a crowd. If you put hands on a federal officer, you should be charged. Every single time. Arrest them. Prosecute them. Back the men and women who enforce our laws. x.com/KatieDaviscour…
