Supporting Erika, Charlie's mission, and TPUSA does not require pretending every decision is defensible. “Pick up the mic” means something because supporters see it as Charlie's mic. Putting TPUSA's logo beside people who oppose what he stood for signals endorsement. A big tent with no gatekeeping eventually stands for nothing.

He sent everyone home early while gas and groceries are still sky high, and the Pentagon is being led recklessly. Why would anyone give them two more years?

I have spent 61 days in FDC Miami’s special housing unit. I was moved to a cell that I say has no hot water or air conditioning and is infested with roaches, while senior staff have not addressed my complaints. I am pursuing legal action over the conditions and asking to be treated like any other prisoner. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.

I could talk for hours about modern art and why so much of it doesn’t work for me. Duchamp is one of my least favorite examples.

Do y’all understand the kind of reckless, thoughtless groupthink it takes to make a chart look like this?

It'll be a good day in January when all these Republicans, who lost their primaries, are out of Congress for good. Their daily complaints are getting old.

I believe political institutions and media have deepened division by framing opponents as enemies. The midterms will determine whether Trump can keep advancing his agenda or whether Democrats and resistant Republicans can block and reverse it. Supporters who want that agenda preserved need to vote.

Claims about water, energy, jobs, safety, competition and subsidies now drive a bipartisan push to restrict AI and data centers. I think freezing or heavily regulating the technology would risk obstructing the next industrial transformation.

Listening to civil servants in Parliament, what strikes me is the disconnect from the private sector that funds them. Out there, nobody has a guaranteed pay rise, a comfortable pension or a job that survives the company running out of money; every month the wages, rent and tax must be found. Inside the state it is four day weeks and nobody sacked, spending money the productive economy earned. Government should run the way every small business must: money is finite, performance matters, failure has consequences. Tone rewrite only.

Tomorrow the leaders of Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland meet to sign a declaration planning the breakup of the United Kingdom. I think that is a mistake. We are one people on these islands, too interwoven for a border not to hurt all of us. Ask a separatist "Am I a foreigner?" and none can say yes. The union is what let us flourish; put the borders back and we compete against our own brothers and sisters. And a vote would not settle it: every election afterwards would be fought by a rejoin faction. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Self-control and exercising complete mastery of your anger is one of the foremost masculine traits. Losing your temper over a game is childish behavior. Just a pure exhibition of weakness.

People protested Mayor Mamdani yesterday, on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, not over anything he has done but because he is a Muslim in a city struck by Islamist terrorists 25 years ago. That was anti-Muslim bigotry, and it had no place in New York. That New Yorkers elected a young Muslim to lead their city a quarter century after 9/11 is something the whole country should be proud of. Prejudice against his faith did not stop a majority from giving him a chance. Patriots love Americans in the real world, whatever their race, religion or creed. If you distrust a fellow American solely for how they pray, leave the flag at home. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

The idea that the juror "lied to get on the jury" does not hold up. None of the alleged dirt these people have dug up would keep him off of a jury. Besides, people don't lie to get ON juries, folks. They lie to get off of them. Massachusetts pays like a 50 dollar stipend for jury duty. Nobody's lying and giving up weeks of their life for that. This guy simply accepted the civic duty he was forcibly conscripted into. Now you are trying to destroy his life for it. Shameful. Tone rewrite only.

We did it…. THE ODYSSEY is the highest-grossing film in the history of Universal. The far-right critics, Elon Musk and everyone who wanted the film to fail have clearly lost.

I have loved Warcraft since I was a kid. I'm a Horde fan, orcs for life, and that's where World of Warcraft lost me. The game never respected the Horde as a faction. First came the Undead, whose theme sits outside Thrall's shamanistic Horde. Then TBC added Blood Elves with paladins, and the Horde stopped looking like burly, savage but honorable monsters. Today's BlizzCon was supposed to bring Classic Plus for vanilla fans like me. Instead we got Undead paladins and a new elf who can join either faction. The story has the same problem: Sylvanas went from a side character to the most powerful being in the universe and humiliated Horde legends like Saurfang. Elves are all Warcraft seems to think about, and I'm done. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

This is the strength that 77 million Americans wanted to lead the United States. This is an old man in visible decline who could not stay awake during a ceremony honoring 9/11. This is not strength. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Parliament defeated the Government on assisted dying today, by 16 votes. I think it is a dangerous idea that could leave the most vulnerable feeling pressured to end their lives, so every vote mattered. Rupert Lowe turned up. Nigel Farage did not. If Reform will not show up to challenge this government on a vote like this, I struggle to see what the party is for. Tone rewrite only.

If you believe Donald Trump's $5000 promise, you are setting yourself up to be fleeced. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

I was an accountant, so watching the $5k dividend debate is painful. We already carry enormous debt. Only about half of us pay income tax, and about half of those pay under $5k, so there is no separate fund that makes this free. There is no free lunch. Now self-described anti-socialists are arguing for redistribution because this time their side is doing it. Meanwhile my quarterly tax checks, each one the size of a year of college or a decent car, get run through bloated bureaucracies before a small slice comes back as a gift. We are told to expect no negative consequences. I doubt it. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

A year on, not a day has passed without Charlie Kirk crossing my mind, usually in the morning and around my kids. Everything I get to do with them was taken from him and from his. The safe move would be to leave politics so it never happens to my family. I will not think that way. Charlie was mocked for years for trying to shift the youth vote, tuned it out, and delivered in 2024. He sat at a folding table in hostile places while the critics stayed home. Fear is the real death sentence for a country. Get off the sidelines and do something. It is fine to be angry. Let it fuel you, not consume you. Tone rewrite only.

Angela Rayner told Nick Robinson on the BBC today that dark clothing and a balaclava on the street is shocking, intimidatory behaviour. Where was that outrage for masked phone snatchers and machete gangs, or for far left protesters who cover their faces every weekend? A protester in dark clothing is a national emergency and the rest passes without comment. Two tier politics. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Hasan Piker said on stream that America deserved 9/11, then called it blowback, then imprecise language, then context. No context makes 3,000 murdered Americans deserved. El-Sayed partied with him in the backyard, so he cannot act shocked when Mike Rogers brings it up. Hasan made it an issue the moment he said it. Tone rewrite only.

Every controversial signing shows how some hockey fans work: grab the worst available word and run with it, with zero research of their own. Putting Alex Formenton’s signing in the same breath as what Lindsay Clancy did, or hanging the word rapist on him, is indefensible. As I read it, this was consensual. Fans like that make the game worse. I hope Alex does well here. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.

A year on, the conservative movement has failed Charlie Kirk. His death didn’t unite the right; it fractured into conspiracy theories, first about foreign governments, then about TPUSA, and finally about his own wife. Erika can’t smile or frown without being called evil, and the friends making money off his name won’t defend her. Tyler Robinson was responsible. You can still have questions, about the Discord chat and his partner, without inventing a hidden hand. If you wanted to destroy this movement, you’d do what Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson did this year. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.

Bret Baier pressed JD Vance on Trump’s $5,000 promise: $1.3 trillion, the deficit, inflation, and critics calling it vote-buying. Vance called it a dividend from tariff revenue. But tariffs are a tax on consumers, the payout needs Congress, and the DOGE dividend and $2,000 tariff rebate never arrived. If the money exists, why wait until after the midterms? Conditioning it on a Republican win is what makes it a bribe. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.

Siri is such an embarrassment right now that it makes me want to throw all of my Apple products across the universe. I really hope the new iOS update fixes this. I can’t even get it to read me off a reminders list without totally messing it up multiple times.

Candace Owens’ tearful reveal that she spent the past year writing to Charlie Kirk in a journal reads like acting to me. The entries are about dreams and betrayal, with digs at Ben Shapiro. It looks assembled to pull on her audience’s heartstrings, one more attempt to make everything about her. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.
