This guy is an absolute train wreck waiting to happen.
Don't be fooled, Michigan. He is not for you any more than the wolf is for the sheep.
Abdul El-Sayed: When they promised the right to bear arms, they had muskets
And how is that going in Europe?
El-Sayed comes from a different cultural background, yet he wants to lecture Americans on their constitutional rights
It says it “shall not be infringed,” not “shall not be infringed unless someone decides your guns are too modern”

The fact that Abdul El-Seyed’s sister was caught on camera, admitting that Abdul is lying about his positions to fool voters, is simply not getting enough attention.

Thank you, President Trump.
⚫️ Trump discusses the Oct 7th massacre to the United Nations
“On Oct 7, terrorists funded by Iran tortured and killed 1200 innocent civilians, including dozens of Americans and many babies.
Little, tiny, beautiful babies.
Iran’s Supreme Leader celebrated the massacre and called it a “service to humanity””

A revival of American statesmanship would include what the colors of the American flag symbolize:
RED
Bravery to step outside of consultant talking points. To admit mistakes and stand against the powerful interests that grow government, pilfer the taxpayer, devalue the dollar, and entangle us in every foreign affair.
WHITE
Purity of heart to not be able to be blackmailed or compromised.
BLUE
Virtuous enough to be honest, moral, and prudent, understanding that history offers us a waypoint through modern challenges and that government has a specific role which does not include being God.
At a recent civics education panel, three questions were asked of the audience based upon Ben Franklin's assessment that our country will only be as good as the virtue of it's citizens.
Raise your hand if yes.
Are you brave?
Are you pure?
Are you virtuous?
Not many raised their hands. These are the areas to address first before digging into how a bill truly becomes law, because most bills that become law are actually driven by powerful interests that legislators are given word for word... and even the talking points to parrot to constituents.
If upcoming statesmen and women are not brave, pure, and virtuous enough to stand against the current inner workings in politics, then government is not of by or for the People.

An Israeli archaeologist discovered a mysterious 3,300-year-old structure on Mount Ebal, believed to be Joshua’s Altar.
Around it were the bones of sheep, goats, and cattle, just as the Torah prescribed for sacrifice by the Cohanim, the Jewish priests. No bones of ritually impure animals, such as pigs or donkeys, were found. Nearby were Egyptian scarabs, seals, and jewelry dating to the biblical Exodus period.
As the excavation continued, the mystery deepened.
Professor Adam Zertal, of blessed memory, had been surveying the hills of Samaria with a team of volunteers when they came across the ancient structure. It was unlike anything they had expected to find.
The local rabbi of Shavei Shomron took an interest in the discovery. He opened a Mishnah containing a description of an ancient Israelite altar and asked Zertal whether it resembled the structure they had uncovered.
“Exactly like it,” Zertal replied.
The rabbi answered, “Then you’ve found Joshua’s Altar.”
The structure’s design closely matched the biblical description of an Israelite altar. The animal remains all came from species permitted for sacrifice, and radiocarbon dating placed the site in the late Bronze Age to early Iron Age, around 3,300 years ago.
Based on the archaeological evidence, Zertal concluded that the site was likely the altar built by Joshua after the Israelites entered the Land of Israel, as described in Joshua 8:30-35, where the nation gathered on Mount Ebal for the covenant ceremony.

This is very personal for me to share.
My biological mother was a stripper working at a club in downtown Seattle. My biological father was one of her clients. She became pregnant with me while struggling with addiction and used drugs throughout her pregnancy. When I was born, I was immediately taken to the ICU to detox and was eventually placed for adoption.
By God’s grace, I was adopted by two wonderful parents who loved me deeply. I was four months old when they picked me up from the orphanage, and they are the only parents I’ve ever known. I never grew up feeling like something was missing. I never felt some deep longing to find my biological parents. I had a mom and dad who loved me, cared for me, sacrificed for me, and gave me a wonderful home.
Years later, after I got married and we had our first child, my wife encouraged me to learn more about my biological history. If for no other reason, she thought it might be good for the sake of our daughter to know whether there was anything medically or genetically significant in my family history.
So I eventually submitted my DNA to Ancestry. Through that, I discovered a half brother, aunts, cousins, and eventually was put in contact with my biological mother.
We were able to meet.
And when I met her, I got to tell her something I’d wanted to tell her for as long as I could remember: thank you.
Thank you for giving me life.
I got to tell her about the wonderful parents who adopted me. I got to tell her that I’d had a good life. I got to tell her about my wife and my children. I wanted her to know that the baby she carried in the middle of all that chaos became a man with a family, a calling, people he loves, people who love him, and a life for which he is profoundly grateful.
I’ve never been angry with her. Never. Not once.
For years I told my wife and children that if my biological mother ever found me, I knew exactly what I would say. I wouldn’t condemn her. I wouldn’t demand explanations. I’d simply thank her for allowing me to live.
Because without that decision, I wouldn’t have the extraordinary wife I have today. I wouldn’t know the indescribable joy of my children. I wouldn’t have experienced the friendships, ministry, laughter, sorrow, beauty, failures, victories, and ordinary moments that have made up my life. There are people I love who wouldn’t know me, children who wouldn’t exist, and a story that never would’ve been written.
She gave me the chance to live it.
We still stay in contact. We speak every few months, and I genuinely enjoy hearing her stories and learning about her life. Since the day I met her, I’ve prayed that the Lord would bring her to Himself. I still pray that.
I share all of this because lately I’ve been thinking a great deal about the choices parents make. About life and death. About how much hangs in the balance of decisions made in moments of fear, desperation, darkness, or confusion.
And yes, I’ve been thinking about those three little children whose lives were taken by the very person entrusted with protecting them. It’s difficult for me not to think about my own story alongside theirs. Their lives mattered. Their futures mattered. Everything they might’ve become, everyone they might’ve loved, every ordinary Tuesday morning and Christmas morning and wedding and child and friendship that might’ve filled the decades ahead of them mattered.
And it makes me profoundly grateful that my mother chose differently.
So if there’s a mother or father reading this who’s in a dark place and wondering whether your presence matters, whether your decisions matter, or whether the people who depend on you would somehow be better off without you, please hear me: your choices matter more than you can see from where you’re standing.
Choose life.
Don’t make an irreversible decision in the middle of a season that will pass. Don’t allow a moment of darkness to make a permanent decision about a future you can’t yet see.
Trust the Lord. Ask for help.

🚨🇺🇸 CAR@LHO, QUE LAPADA! 🔥🔥🔥
CNN: “Este é um imigrante sem documentos...”
Miller: “Eles estavam aqui ILEGALMENTE?”
CNN: “Quero que esta seja uma discussão de boa-fé...”
Miller: “Quando você usa uma linguagem feita para ocultar a verdade, isso NÃO é boa-fé. Um ESTRANGEIRO ILEGAL é um ESTRANGEIRO ILEGAL. Eles não são ‘imigrantes sem documentos’.”
CNN: “Stephen, estamos tentando humanizar o debate...”
Miller: “Humanizar? Então vamos humanizar o Código Penal também. O assaltante de banco passa a ser ‘especialista em retirada sem agendamento prévio’. O estelionatário vira ‘empreendedor de narrativas financeiras alternativas’. O cara que entra na sua casa sem convite é só um ‘visitante com documentação pendente’. Que tal?”
CNN: “Isso é uma analogia grosseira.”
Miller: “Grosseira é fingir que a lei federal some porque a redação da CNN inventou um eufemismo mais fofo. ‘Sem documentos’ soa como alguém que esqueceu a carteira no Uber. Não. É alguém que cruzou a fronteira sem autorização, ficou, e agora a imprensa trata o estatuto jurídico como se fosse uma questão de estilo de escrita.”
CNN: “Mas muitos contribuem para a economia...”
Miller: “Ah, o argumento clássico: o crime deixa de ser crime se a pessoa lava prato ou constrói telhado. Pelo mesmo critério, o contrabandista de cigarro também ‘contribui’, gera emprego no transporte. Quer que a gente chame ele de ‘empreendedor logístico informal’? A CNN topa?”
CNN: “Você está polarizando.”
Miller: “Não. Eu estou recusando o dicionário de marketing. Vocês mudam a palavra, depois acusam quem usa o termo legal de ser ‘desumano’. É o truque mais velho do livro: primeiro suaviza o vocabulário, depois declara vitória moral. Os Estados Unidos já cansaram desse teatro. Chamem o que é. Ou admitam que o objetivo nunca foi clareza — foi controle da narrativa.”

Anybody out there need a web designer this is your guy
I’ll probably only post about this once.
I’m trying to build a way out of the corporate world. I love knives, but they take a long time to grow, and with how expensive everything has gotten, it feels like we’re doing okay without really getting ahead.
A big part of this is that I want my wife to be able to keep being a mom and not feel like she has to go back to work just because life keeps getting more expensive.
So I’ve started building something on the side: @PayAfterMK
If anyone needs a website, I can help. I’ve built Orbital Knives, Pay After Marketing, and a lot of other sites throughout my career. I can build something very professional without charging the crazy agency prices.
It’s more work, but if it helps me eventually go out on my own and gives my family a little more freedom, it’s worth it.
THANKS! 😊
It's quite an indictment of our intellectual state that @benshapiro has to explain this in such a way.
My, how the mighty have fallen.
250 years ago, young men were producing brilliant literary works like the Declaration.
Today? We can't read a paragraph and comprehend its meaning.
Okay, you illiterate asshats.
Netanyahu is not arguing, contra RetardoX, that you will be punished for not studying Torah in Israel or elsewhere. He's specifically addressing the #1 public issue in Israel: the draft exemption for Haredim (the ultra-Orthodox).
The yeshiva exemption is an vestigial structure, an evolutionary hangover from a deal cut at the foundation of the state between the Haredim and the government. Today, many Haredi leaders argue that no Haredi should EVER serve in the army, whether they're learning Torah or not. Most people who aren't Haredi think that exemption should disappear entirely (for the record, I think that position is correct).
Netanyahu is proposing a compromise position. Under current law, in Israel, you can apply for exemption from the military draft as a yeshiva student. Many of those who do so are not in fact learning Torah. They are welfare queens avoiding service. He's proposing that if you are not even studying Torah, there's certainly no excuse for the yeshiva exemption for you.
This has literally nothing to do with American politics. It is certainly NOT a mandate that you MUST learn Torah or you'll be punished with the draft or jail. You have to be a complete moron to believe any of that. But then again, RetardoX is filled with complete morons.
Dinesh has stumbled into the world of Matthew 23's seven woes.
So many people calling themselves Christians who love the rules they've learned about God more than the Living God Himself.
"You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life."

We see a lot of warnings in the Church world today against the greedy, sexually immoral, and swindlers. But do you know who God puts right alongside that group of people?
Revilers.
Those who demean, insult, and verbally tear down others. 1 Corinthians 5:11
We need to be careful we are not adopting a secular hierarchy for how we judge sin. The world may treat these categories as worse than abusive language—but does God?

I was thinking about mothers today.
And the older I get, the more unbelievable it feels.
A woman carries another human being inside her.
Gives birth to them.
Loses sleep for them.
Worries about them for years and years.
And then one day that little kid is just… out there in the world.
Working.
Falling in love.
Getting married.
Helping people.
Maybe raising children of their own.
And the mother probably never sees most of the good that person goes on to do.
That’s the part that gets me.
Someone may be kind to my child someday, somewhere on the other side of the world.
And maybe that kindness exists because, decades earlier, a mother loved that person well.
I don’t know.
There’s something about that.
A mother gives one life to the world, and that life keeps touching other lives long after she lets go of its hand.
It’s kind of enormous when you think about it.
So yeah.
To mothers.
Thank you.
For all of us.

When Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world,” He was explaining that His Kingdom is not from/of this world. That its source/authority are from God.
Jesus did not say His Kingdom would never be established on the earth. The prophets repeatedly declared it would be. Even after the resurrection, the disciples understood that Israel’s Kingdom would be restored. They asked Jesus, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” (Acts 1:6) 📖
Jesus did NOT correct what they expected. He addressed when it would happen.
That’s a pretty important distinction.

The congregation doesn't need your coffee joke.
They buried someone this week.
They're sitting in pews with divorce papers in their glovebox.
Kids who won't speak to them.
Test results they haven't opened.
They drove past three churches to hear you say something that costs you something.
So open the Book.
Forget the illustration you found on Google.
Skip the movie clip.
Kill the countdown timer on your outline.
Preach like a man possessed.
Preach like you'll answer for every wasted syllable.
Preach like their blood is on your hands.

I stood in line at a massive supermarket in Ohio. In front of me was a man with a mountain of groceries—boxes of cereal, three gallons of milk, bags of dog food, and frozen pizzas stacked like a brick wall.
Behind him stood a tired mother holding a single bottle of baby medicine and a small loaf of bread.
The man looked back, saw her holding the single bottle, and without a moment's hesitation, stepped aside and gestured to the conveyor belt.
"Go ahead, ma'am. You've only got two items."
The mother smiled, said "Bless you," and placed her medicine on the belt.
I stood frozen in the aisle.
In my mind, a line is an absolute military formation. Priority is determined solely by order of arrival. To surrender one's position in line is to yield turf without a fight.
Inside I said: THIS MAN HAS GIVEN UP HIS BATTLE POSITION. HE HAS COMMITTED A TACTICAL SURRENDER AT THE CHECKOUT COUNTER.
But then I looked further down the row of registers. It was happening at cashier three. It was happening at cashier seven. People with overflowing carts were stepping back, waving people with single baskets forward.
There was no law written on the wall. No security guard was enforcing it.
It was a quiet, unwritten pact executed millions of times a day across the nation:
If you have less, the tribe lets you pass first.
When the man finally reached the cashier, I stepped up behind him. I had only a box of green tea. He turned around, noticed my tea, and immediately stepped back again.
"Go on, man. Just the tea? You're good."
I looked at him. I did not move.
"I cannot take your place," I said with great weight. "You have earned this ground."
He laughed, a warm, booming sound, and patted my shoulder.
"It's just tea, buddy. Go on before my ice cream melts."
I stepped forward. I placed my tea on the belt.
In this country, efficiency is not forced by rules. It is granted by strangers who decide that your small errand is more important than their big one.
I paid for my tea, bowed to the man, and said, "May your ice cream remain frozen forever."
He grinned and gave me a thumbs up.
I walked out into the sun feeling lighter than when I walked in.

Sidney Crosby was just trying to enjoy lunch during a vacation in the Bahamas when a 10-year-old Penguins fan spotted him nearby.
After working up the courage to ask for a photo, she got much more than she expected.
Crosby posed with her, walked over to speak with the rest of the family, talked hockey and stayed for a few more pictures.
Then came the part they did not see coming.
When the family asked for their bill, they learned Crosby had already paid for their entire lunch. He also left the young fan an autograph and a handwritten note.
No cameras. No announcement. Just a quiet gesture from one of hockey’s biggest stars.
Sidney Crosby has built a legendary career through what he does on the ice, but moments like this explain why he is respected just as much away from it.
Absolute class from Sid. 👏

It's fascinating that in the days of Isaiah, the rebellious of Judah, those who did not trust the Lord, were consumed by conspiracy theories.
For thus the LORD spoke to me with mighty power and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying, “You are not to say, ‘It is a conspiracy!’ In regard to all that this people call a conspiracy, and you are not to fear what they fear or be in dread of it. It is the LORD of hosts whom you should regard as holy.
And He shall be your fear,
And He shall be your dread.
Then He shall become a sanctuary.
(Isaiah 8:11–14)
