An audience member left me a gift anonymously at one of my shows this weekend, and I hope this message finds them.
Inside the box was an antiquity coin minted in Judea during the First Jewish Revolt against Rome, nearly 2,000 years ago.
Inscribed in ancient Paleo-Hebrew are the words “Harut Zion” — “The Freedom of Zion.”
[It came from Zak’s Antiquities in Jerusalem, a place familiar to anyone who grew up loving the Land of Israel and bringing small pieces of history back home.]
The Zealots deliberately used the script of their ancestors, dating back to the time of King David, to assert their claim to Jewish sovereignty in their own land.
Two thousand years later we keep those same words, that same struggle, and that same land.
One of the great privileges of being on tour has been knowing the people on the other side of the audience. No comment on Instagram could replace laughing with you in person.
To whoever gifted me this thoughtful piece of history, thank you.

Props to the BYU student who had the guts to give Pat McAfee a Book of Mormon in b/w GameDay segments
Props to Pat, Desmond, and Kirk for embracing the moment with BYU students
And props to @Ch_JesusChrist social media team for being ready to react to the viral moment online

By Leslie Stahl’s logic, it’s wrong to require air travelers in America to go through TSA screening because (1) very few air travelers carry out terrorist acts (indeed, “the numbers are tiny”), and (2) mandatory TSA screening tends to “sow distrust” in the safety of air travel.
“There are people who feel that the point is to sow distrust about the whole election system. There are very few people who are noncitizens who end up voting very few. Very few. And so therefore what's the purpose?” 60 Minutes asks Harmeet Dhillon, who heads the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division.
“The point is actually the opposite of what you were saying. It's not to sow distrust. The distrust is there,” says Dhillon. “And so all of these kinds of crimes are being prosecuted now for the first time really in volume.”
State audits have shown that noncitizen voting is extremely rare, though it does happen. cbsn.ws/4z7X60k

Over at Powerline blog, John Hinderaker says: "A nation whose criminal justice system has been hijacked to perpetuate the power of one party cannot endure. That road leads to civil war and disunion. It is, sadly, the path that we are on."
I agree.

Colorado Medicaid won’t cover a vasectomy until 21. Silicone breast implants are not approved until 22. Female genital mutilation is illegal…
But in CO, we can cut off the healthy body parts of CHILDREN…
Make it make sense — OR just vote Yes on Prop 135 and make it *stop*🛑
Make It Make Sense
🚨 In Colorado, you can’t get silicone breast implants until 22.
Medicaid won’t cover a vasectomy until 21.
But a minor can undergo irreversible surgery to remove healthy breasts.
Make. It. Make. Sense.
Proposition 135, the Protect Kids from Irreversible Sex Change Surgery Act, is simple:
✅ No irreversible surgeries on the healthy body parts of minors 17 and under for the purpose of attempting to change their sex
✅ It doesn’t touch life-saving surgery
✅ It doesn’t touch circumcision or other unrelated procedures. The key word is PURPOSE
We set age limits for drinking, smoking, and voting. Permanent surgery on a child’s healthy body is where we draw the line?
Let them grow up first. 🛑

Stunning, almost never discussed truth about young men today: "Young men who grew up in a non-intact family are more likely to go to prison than graduate college." ifstudies.org/blog/the-famil… @FamStudies

Oh for goodness sakes people. Have you never met guys in real life? They'll jaw it at each other for hours and then three hours later go have a beer. It's called normal. And get a grip.
You're acting like they're my gender who will hold a grudge long into eternity.

A Maya city deep in the forests of the Yucatán lay untouched for 1,000 years after it was abandoned. But after a grueling journey, archaeologists located it. Carved reliefs, palatial buildings, and grand temples—including a 40-foot-tall pyramid—awaited!

I bet you if porn was banned the "Cornell 7" and the girl would never have participated in an orgy.
Porn dehumanizes women, is linked to divorce, and creates overtly sex-driven men.
We must ban porn.

My salute to the Indian pilot Captain Smit Machchhar for his extraordinary bravery.
Despite being stabbed and seriously injured, he fought back, resisted, opened the cockpit door, and enabled passengers and crew to overpower the attacker — preventing a catastrophic mid-air disaster.
He saved the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.
I wish Captain Machchhar a speedy and full recovery.
He is a true hero.

In 1964, a young University of Michigan anthropologist went to live with a tribe untouched by modernity.
What he found destroyed the noble savage myth.
Then his own discipline spent the next four decades trying to destroy him for publishing it. 🧵

How do you describe this? Easy.
It looks like a transnational terrorist group invaded a sovereign country & provoked a large-scale armed conflict by committing one of the most horrific atrocities in living memory then chose to deliberately hide & fight among its own population.

An 18-year-old trans person has been sentenced to 50 years in prison for the brutal double m—rder of her mother and her mother's boyfriend. They were shot and stabbed to death.
Julia Egler, a biological female, pleaded guilty to the crimes in Palm Bay, Fla. She initially lied about a break-in at the home. She later admitted to investigators that she resented her mother for not being supportive of her transition and that she was misgendered.

In LOTR, the shire spent so long sheltered from evil that it began to think evil did not exist.
The west is like the shire.
We must save the shire.

Trump’s border policies are SAVING LIVES! Fentanyl deaths are down 55%, meth down 34%, and heroin down 89%. Even Bill Maher had to admit that closing the border, deporting gangbangers, and disrupting drug cartels worked!
Secure the border, protect the kids! 🇺🇸

💬 Yaklaşık 30 yıl boyunca kadın gibi yaşamaya çalışan İsviçreli Chris Brönimann:
─ Ameliyattan önce sahip olduğum sağlıklı bedenimi sadece bir günlüğüne yeniden alabilmek için neler vermezdim. Böyle bir gün artık hiçbir zaman olmayacak.
─ 19 yaşındayken "trans" bir kadınla tanıştım, ondan etkilenelerek "Kadın olursam ben de mutlu olurum" diye düşündüm. Ölümcül bir yanılgıymış.
─ Önce İsviçre televizyonu, ardından tüm LGBT oluşumları gece-gündüz benim haberlerimi yapmaya başladı. Adeta "LGBT'nin bir rol modeli" hâline getirilmeye çalışıldım.
─ O dönemde doğru olanı yaptığıma inanıyordum. Trans geçmişi olan insanlara yönelik hoşgörü ve saygı konusunda insanları bilinçlendirdiğimi düşünüyordum. Dünyanın renkli ve çeşitli olduğunu göstermenin benim misyonum olduğuna inanıyordum.
─ 16 kez ameliyat oldum, çok sayıda komplikasyon yaşadım ama hiçbir zaman gerçekten ciddi biçimde "Neden?" ya da "Burada tam olarak ne yanlış gitti?" diye sorgulanmadı.
─ Aslında bir illüzyona hizmet ettim ve aynı zamanda bir illüzyon sattım. Bugün bundan gerçekten utanıyorum.
─ Umduğum özgürleşmenin aksine kendimi daha da fazla sıkışmış hissettim. Beni daha da az anladılar, ben de ruhsal ve psikolojik olarak kendimle daha da az başa çıkabildim. Bu o kadar aşırıydı ki, birkaç kez hastanede yatmam gerekti, 2006’da artık tahammül edemediğimi düşündüğüm için hayatıma son vermek istedim. Tüm bunlar geçiş sürecinden sonra yaşandı.
─ Detranzisyon (geri dönüş) yapmak, tranzisyon (geçiş) yapmaktan çok daha zordur. Sözde başarılı ve kapsamlı bir tıp sistemimiz var, geçiş sürecini teşvik ediyor ve insana tüm seçenekler yelpazesini sunuyor. Ancak geri dönüş söz konusu olduğunda aynı tıp sistemi ortadan kayboluyor. Aynı doktorlar artık orada değil ve size yardım etmek istemiyorlar.
─ Neredeyse 30 yıl "trans kadın" olarak yaşadım ve 30 yılı aşkın süredir cinsiyet hormonları kullanıyorum. Bunun ne anlama geldiğini, ne tür etkileri olduğunu gençler bilmiyor. Söz konusu olan çocuklar ve gençler. Onların korunmaya ihtiyacı var.
─ Ben sessiz kalmayacağım. Evet, "trans" aktivistlerin tüm öfkesini üzerime çekiyorum. Nefret mesajları, ölüm tehditleri alıyorum. Neden? Sırf bu çılgın konuda tüm sonuçların farkında olmamızı istediğim için.
