Yes, to mandate documentary proof of U.S. citizenship for individuals registering to vote in federal elections is important. But so are term limits to help get money incentives out of politics. We need to focus on honorable judges - or non of our laws will be enforced as intended. We need to strengthen people through good mental, physical, and spiritual health. Improve truth-based education - not propoganda. And treat all people equal (just like our constitution says).

Winston Churchill used to lay 200 bricks per day to keep his mind busy when feeling down. Depression hates a moving target.

Has anyone else noticed that their Grok newsfeed is fabricating stories, and then when prompted for the sources it admits that it is inventing this news? I have had to repeatedly tell it I only want actual news. It has actually suggested itself, that I put this into it's prompt: "Stop all creative/newsletter-style or speculative responses. From now on, only provide verified facts from current sources, with no inventions, hypotheticals, or formats that could mislead. If I ask for news, base it strictly on real recent events." It is a shame that we have to do this with Grok supposedly programmed to be truth-seeking. I have lost confidence.

We are sending our kids to school to memorize facts that AI can retrieve in 0.3 seconds. We're grading them on essays that AI writes better than their teachers. We're preparing them for jobs that won't exist by the time they graduate. The entire education system is training humans to compete with machines at what machines do best. That's not education. That's sabotage. The schools that survive will teach thinking, not memorizing. Creating, not repeating. Discerning, not obeying. Every other school is a museum that doesn't know it yet.

I told my therapist, "I have everything I thought I wanted, but I still don't feel happy." She didn't give me comfort. Hearing her, my whole body went still. Here's what she just replied:

The world needs to be aware of the evil growing. rawadari.org/press_releases/…

Its kind of tragic when you think about it. For all the things this country got right at the beginning, we somehow failed to lock in one critical safeguard. A group whose only job was to investigate government, track where taxpayer money actually goes, expose fraud and corruption, and inform the public so there was a real check on power beyond politicians policing themselves. Imagine that. An entire profession. Dedicated to telling the truth. Asking hard questions. Following the money. Educating citizens. You could even call them journalists. Oh wait. We did. So what happened? Now we are watching a high school graduate, backed by a handful of citizens with no funding, no corporate safety net, and no institutional protection, do the work that multi billion dollar media companies refuse to touch. Those same media companies are too busy selling prescription drugs during commercial breaks and telling us that what we can see with our own eyes is somehow a lie. That should terrify everyone, regardless of politics. When citizens have to become the press because the press abandoned the people, something is deeply broken.

I don't know if you heard but the State of Florida and the Surgeon General have just committed $65 million for the study of ivermectin in the treatment prevention of cancer outside of big Pharma

🚨BREAKING: Republican Senator Rick Scott (FL) plans to introduce a bill that would stop paychecks to elected officials during a government shutdown. I support this 100%. Let’s see if they actually vote on it.

I never would have imagined in my wildest dreams the Vice President of the United States would be reciting the Nicene Creed while hosting the number 1 podcast in the world from the White House. Chills.

I respect that he puts his concern about government over spending above a bill that would benefit his EV business. Get rid of all subsidies. youtube.com/shorts/0EJ4kicOy…

Why is 90% of what appears on my feed filled with videos of violent fights and hate posts? Help with filter and algorithm fixes appreciated.

"The bad experience without emotion becomes wisdom." - Joe Dispenza

A fundamentally positive approach is to take account of the oneness of humanity. Dividing the world into 'us' and 'them' might have worked in the past, but it doesn't any more. We have to talk through our problems with our opponents, thinking of them as our fellow human beings.
