Isn’t it funny how these “bombshell” ethics complaints drop right when ballots are about to go out? ​A partisan PAC that has spent years obsessing over Lauren Boebert suddenly conjures up unverified office affair rumors six weeks before midterm voting. ​The playbook is predictable, lazy, and completely transparent. Sit back down and let her do her job.🤷🏼‍♀️

This week I had a student who is a 79 year old Vietnam veteran. He is in a wheelchair. He has a Purple Heart. Was an MP. He has been awarded the bronze star. He has metals for rifle and pistol marksmanship. Because of Colorado law, in order for him to have a concealed handgun permit he has to attend an 8 hour class, pass a written exam and then pass a 50 round live fire qualification. Neither of my classrooms are ADA compliant, so I gave him the class in the comfort of his home. It was the LEAST I could do for this hero. I was surrounded by all his metals, accomplishments in his military service, and honored to help such a noble man. At the same time, I was absolutely disgusted at the fact this war hero who has been through HELL and sacrificed his body and mental health, watched his brothers in arms die horrific deaths for our country, prove to me and the state that he is competent enough to carry a firearm to defend himself in Colorado. There is no provision in these unconstitutional laws that gives exemptions to disabled veterans. We owe this man and plenty like him the dignity and reverence to ensure that they are afforded ALL the freedoms guaranteed by the constitution- the freedoms he and so many have bled for. I’m ashamed that I had to ask this war hero to suffer through a class, a test and a live fire qualification when he has METALS FOR PISTOL AND RIFLE ON THE WALL FROM OUR ARMED SERVICES. Everyone who has had a hand in these atrocities should be held accountable and charged with crimes for violating our American Constitution and 2nd Amendment. Vietnam was horrific. How dare we treat our veterans like they are some 2nd class citizens and our 2A liberties like privileges. His service to our country should be more than enough for him to carry a firearm. We must change this.

FAKE NEWS CNN this morning: 150 pounds of waterlogged plaster drops 60 feet from the Kennedy Center ceiling… and the panel’s big crisis is Trump’s name. Not the crumbling memorial. Not the freezing corridors. Not decades of government neglect. Trump’s name. One host says the building’s been falling apart for decades. Another says nah, it was fine, she went to shows. Cool debate, guys. Meanwhile plaster’s doing freefalls like it’s a demolition derby. Then they pivot to the real horror: ego. Insecurity. “He only cares about himself.” So let me get this straight. Fix the dump, put a name on the work, and CNN acts like he burned the Constitution. Leave it rotting and they call you a statesman. That’s not journalism. That’s a group therapy session that somehow got a cable slot.

The community note on this post is example #500 why the American people have zero trust in their own government.
House Republicans passed over 70 bills this week alone — that adds to our total of over 900 bills passed through the House so far this Congress. We’ve DELIVERED for Americans by: 🇺🇸 Enacting the largest middle and working class tax cut in US history 🇺🇸 Creating new incentives to build and hire American 🇺🇸 Adding the biggest boost to job creation in decades 🇺🇸 Establishing Trump accounts for every American child  🇺🇸 Restoring safety and order to our cities 🇺🇸 Stopping American deaths from the scourge of fentanyl 🇺🇸Closing the border By contrast, the Democrat agenda is very simple: grievance politics, bigger government, higher taxes, open borders, and zero security.

The 119th congress was the least productive in history, no congress has enacted less legislation or laws. Johnson has cancelled a total 63 scheduled voting days in the house, granting members an extra 2 months PTO, with no house votes scheduled until after the election. govtrack.us/congress/bills… ms.now/news/dhs-shutd… snopes.com/fact-check/mik… cbsnews.com/news/house-can…

🔥🚨 BREAKING: Mitch McConnell is being wheeled BACK to the Senate on Day 4 of his “return” Yesterday he needed Hoeven, a staffer, and Chairman Boozman to finish an “aye” on the Farm Bill. Clerk called his name twice. Today they are rolling him in again.This is not a comeback. This is a body being used as a vote. Someone send this man home.

Breaking: FBI says Trump assassin "Thomas Crooks" acted ALONE, after analyzing 27 devices. What destroys this narrative is the fact that his entire online presence and background was wiped, his room was wiped clean, and allegedly meet an FBI or law enforcement agent at a gun range. To add even more, there is no way this kid would have been able to get into the Butler event with a weapon, act as suspicious as he did the entire time, get in position on the roof with a weapon, and be allowed to take multiple shots unless he was allowed to do so. This was an inside job, set up by compromised officials in our own government and in other high places, including in our own FBI and Secret Service. The writing is on the wall.

These politicians are goddamn parasites. Welfare rats living off our paychecks. I don’t work so some aide can get paid to wheel @SenMcConnell from room to room like he’s furniture. “Senior statesman” my ass. That just means the man can’t stand up without help. Send him home. We are done paying for this shit.

You know why. It's jealousy. A beautiful person exposes their ugliness. A talented person exposes their mediocrity. A successful person exposes their failures. They hate anything and anyone better than them, and their only recourse is to attack.

Carnegie Mellon is paying the price for a 2021 hire made amid the moral panic that followed George Floyd. The professor’s thin research record, narrow intellectual range, and political activism should have prompted serious scrutiny. In a freer intellectual climate, hiring committees might have said plainly that no appointment was warranted, let alone a tenure-track appointment involving decades of commitment by a distinguished university. But professors who crossed DEI boundaries could pay a steep professional price: stalled promotion, difficulty publishing, ostracism, reputational destruction, and countless hours spent defending their motives rather than doing scholarship. That is how intellectual conformity takes hold—not necessarily through formal censorship (though there was plenty of that), but through the credible threat of professional punishment. So the question for CMU is not simply what to do about one professor. It's whether the university has dismantled the machinery that makes honest judgment so difficult in the first place.
Dr. Uju Anya is currently on voluntary professional leave from the university and is not teaching courses on our campus this academic year. We are deeply concerned by recent hostile and threatening social media posts by Dr. Anya and are reviewing this matter closely.

Two weeks ago, I realized we went from eight guinea hens to six. And then four. I investigated and found feather piles, and tracked the forensic evidence back to the hood where the perpetrator lived. I bought two 48"x 18" traps and put stinky wet cat food inside. This criminal could not resist. This is a Red state, so instead of apologizing to him and electing him to a position of political power, I shot him in the face. And then burned his corpse on a pile of trash. Are you willing to do what is necessary, anon?

I stopped posting about politics back on February 19th, when things just stopped making sense to me. Canceled Fox News because every day the story was NANCY GUTHRIE MISSING. Stopped watching political pundits on YouTube because I couldn't believe anything anymore. Pam Bondi didn’t arrest any of the Democrats they told us were criminals from 2020 - 2024. Bondi got replaced by Todd Blanche - still no Democrat indictments or arrests. Patel became head of the FBI - still didn’t arrest any Democrats. They told us Biden ran the country on an Autopen - nothing happened. They promised the Epstein List - nothing happened to anybody who was on it. At some point I realized I was spending my time watching people on television tell me what was ABOUT TO HAPPEN... ...and then watching NOTHING HAPPEN. So I dropped out. Not because I stopped caring about America. Because I started caring about my OWN SANITY. And I honestly DON’T REGRET IT. Because whenever I accidentally see something political, it's always the same story. DEMOCRATS are ACTING UP. REPUBLICANS are FAILING DOWN. Who needs 24/7/365 of that garbage?

If you believe the governments story about what happened on 911, your ability to reason and critical thinking skills are highly compromised. Or even worse, you’re being willfully ignorant and consciously decided to engage in self deception to protect your belief system.

Mamdani and AOC laughing while names of victims of 9/11 are being read should be in every single campaign ad in every single city in America until November. This is the Democratic Socialist Party. They hate you. They hate America. Blast this everywhere

WTC Building 7 - a 47-story building that was not struck by any aircraft - collapsed at 5:20 PM on September 11, 2001. The building fell at free-fall acceleration for approximately 2.25 seconds - a fact that NIST (the National Institute of Standards and Technology) initially denied, then was forced to acknowledge after independent analysis proved it. Free-fall means the building offered zero structural resistance during its collapse - physically impossible in a gravity-driven collapse unless the supporting structure was simultaneously removed. NIST's final report attributed the collapse to 'office fires' - the first time in history that fire alone was claimed to have caused the total collapse of a steel-framed high-rise building. No steel-framed building has collapsed due to fire before or since September 11, 2001. The BBC reported Building 7's collapse approximately 20 minutes before it actually fell - with the building still standing visibly behind the reporter. Building 7 housed: the SEC (investigating Wall Street fraud), the IRS, the Secret Service, the CIA's New York station, and the Office of Emergency Management - Rudy Giuliani's fortified command center. Thousands of SEC case files - including investigations into Enron and WorldCom - were destroyed in the collapse. A building full of active federal investigations collapsed into its own footprint at free-fall speed from office fires. And nobody asked why.

You’re just making this up because you’re a disgusting racist demagogue. There have been no lynchings in country in decades. Meanwhile, 30 people were shot, 9 killed, in Chicago - one American city - over Labor Day weekend. Almost of them were young black men or boys. But you don’t give a shit because they were killed by other young black men or boys and you are a disgusting racist demagogue.
Black folks are being found hanged in America. This is a national crisis and we CANNOT stand by while strange fruit hangs from trees across the country. We're demanding a federal investigation NOW so we can stop modern-day lynchings.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Most high-profile cases of Black people found hanging in 2025-26 were ruled suicides by medical examiners and police, with no evidence of foul play. One remains a homicide probe. Framing as modern-day lynchings is not supported by official findings. apnews.com/article/missis… fox5atlanta.com/news/cobb-lead… cnn.com/2026/09/10/us/…

Quit patting yourselves on the back! Senate Republicans @senategop ran endless Pro Forma sessions to block their own Republican President from getting any recess appointments. Senate Republicans failed to pass the SAVE America Act, even though they had a 53-47 majority. Even more ridiculous - they arrogantly refused to listen to their own constituents, who have been demanding it non-stop for 18 months. Many/most of us will vote for you in November only because the Dems are even worse. But be assured - we will be coming for you with excellent PATRIOT Primary challengers in 2028!!
Senate Republicans stood up for taxpayers and saved $187 billion through SNAP reforms. We cut rampant waste, fraud, and abuse.  Now, SNAP works better for Americans truly in need.
