The American flag still waves proud & free.

The King highlights the nations' shared commitment to liberty, democracy, and the rule of law, saying he has "no doubt" the historic alliance will continue to grow even stronger over the next 250 years.

@_delconte I love a good mariachi band but love songs aren’t the best fit in a football game imo. Maybe before game or half time but not during a TO when we should be getting the players hyped. Thanks for all you do and Merry Christmas!

On August 17, at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in California, I will unveil my comprehensive foreign policy vision, including on Russia, China, Taiwan, India, and other Asian nations: shifting from “liberal hegemony” to the Modern Monroe Doctrine. We will support freezing the current lines of control, reopening economic relations with Russia, & a hard commitment that NATO will not admit Ukraine in return for Russia exiting its military partnership with China, removing nuclear weapons from Kaliningrad, and ending its military presence in the Western Hemisphere — a reverse maneuver of what Nixon accomplished with Mao in 1972. We will further deter China from annexing Taiwan by shifting from strategic ambiguity to strategic clarity: we will defend until 2029 but not afterward, at which point we will have full semiconductor independence from Taiwan, significantly reduced economic independence on China, stronger relationships with India, Japan, and South Korea, and stronger U.S. homeland defense capabilities to protect against cyber, super-EMP, and nuclear attacks. In the meantime, we will have absolutely *zero* tolerance for any breaches of our homeland or aggression in the Western Hemisphere, including Chinese spy balloons, Chinese spy bases in Cuba, intentional fentanyl poisoning, biological lab leaks, illegal border crossings, or any other encroachments of the U.S. homeland — and will make adversaries pay full-on hell if they do. This is the way: I will lead our nation forward from “neoconservatism” & “liberal hegemony” toward a secure homeland that protects the tangible interests of its citizens.

Save Women's Sports Act is now law in Texas🤝🏼 Thanks to the leadership of @GovAbbott @mayes_middleton @ValoreeforTexas for getting this through. On to the next state! Which state should we push for next?

“Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence? Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons in the revolutionary army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the revolutionary war. They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners, men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured. Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags. Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward. Vandals or soldiers or both, looted the properties of Ellery, Clymer, Hall, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton. At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. The owner quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt. Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months. John Hart was driven from his wife’s bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later he died from exhaustion and a broken heart. Norris and Livingston suffered similar fates. Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more. Standing tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: ‘For the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.’” Michael W Smith

This book, It's Perfectly Normal, is in the Asheville School District in, NC. As a matter of fact, it's in numerous school districts around the country. The board, as expected, didn't want me to read it, but 10 yeard olds can read it and view all of the pornography it propagates. Was it something I said? Or was it something I read? Go to eracedbook.com to support the ERACED project and help me take my message around the country! A special thanks to pavementeducationproject.com for archiving all of the gender theory/queer theory/woke books in NC. PEP is an EPIC organization.

@RyanBearden32 @WillBaizer Bearden, 100% agree with that frustration. But not this game. He played well when the OL wasn’t letting dudes run through full speed without being touched. My hope is that this season taught him his sh*t does actually stink and he’ll need to grind harder

Now that we can tell the truth here after Elon Musk officially took over, I’m just going to come out and say it: Masks don’t work

@tmprowell @robinzharley How well did those restrictions work when instituted in November? Check the graph again and be honest.

@ProfesoraLMO @uche_blackstock You also can’t hide in your house forever, scared of the flu
