The CA Legislature tried to strike these words from the state constitution in 2020 (put there by Prop 209 in 1996). The voters smacked them down when 57.23% said NO—despite the YES campaign outspending the NO team by more than 14 to 1. Now they’re trying again—calling it a “clarification” instead of an effort to gut the provision’s application to public education. Don’t believe them. If approved by the voters, this would be a major change. The aim is to pave the way for the recommendations of California’s Task Force on Reparations. The Task Force wants to make college free to African Americans no matter how well off their parents are and to get school districts to fund individual schools based on the race of the students who attend. @christopherrufo

Japan has for a very long time been a high trust society. That is because you have been ethnically homogenous. Ethnically homogenous societies are high trust. The US has been ethnically diverse since its beginning. Studies show that ethnically diverse cultures tend to be low trust. We have had high trust periods for various reasons. But most of our history has been low trust. (And crime has been an issue in cities throughout our history.) We deal with this through being heavily armed. 'An armed society is a polite society.' Where there are many guns in non-felon civilian hands, crime is lower. ('More guns=less crime' Which has been proven to be true if the guns are in the hands of non-felon citizens.) So, yes, we see it as a duty. 'The only deterrent to criminals is the armed citizen. The criminal is not deterred by cops or courts. The criminal only fears a citizen with gun in hand. It is therefore the duty of every citizen to be armed.' Words to that effect by JD. Cooper And to hunt. And to fight tyranny. (Looks like we're getting close but it often does.) To keep and bear arms is our duty.

🚨 A JOURNALIST JUST FILMED INSIDE THE NEWARK ICE PROTEST CAMP. READ THAT AGAIN: Nick Sortor went in with a hidden camera. What he found wasn't a spontaneous protest. It was a fully operational logistics base. – Tens of THOUSANDS of dollars in equipment already on site – Riot gear. Not signs. Not banners. RIOT EQUIPMENT. – Hot food delivered every single hour, on schedule – Medical sections, expensive tents, organized supply chains – This is outside Delaney Hall ICE detention center in Newark, NJ – Protests have been running for over a week — round the clock – Andy Ngo documented week-long violence by Antifa at the same facility – State police had to intervene just to restore basic order – Nobody is asking who is paying for hourly catered deliveries to a protest camp – Nobody is asking who sourced the riot equipment – Nobody is asking who coordinates the resupply logistics for a week-long operation This is not a group of angry citizens who showed up with signs. This is a funded, staffed, continuously resupplied operation with riot capability. Someone is writing checks for this. Someone is organizing the deliveries. Someone made sure the equipment arrived. The protesters didn't just open a door that CANNOT be closed. The funders did. And nobody is looking for them. Follow and turn on notifications before it's too late.

We gave up on “civility” when you tried to stage a literal coup via the “Trump/Russia Collusion” hoax. We abandoned “comity” when you decided that serial impeachments based on lies and fables were your preferred method of thwarting the Constitutional will of the American electorate. We decided against “collegiality” after you decided it was better to fabricate criminal charges to defeat your opponents than it was to try and defeat them at the ballot box. We threw out pretensions of “courtesy” the one-zillionth time you called us “Nazis” while your own candidates sport SS Totenkopf tattoos. We play by your rules now, Democrats. Deal with it. (You too, Mike Pence.)

One of the few declassified IDF drone videos from high altitude over Gaza. First 5-7 seconds: Watch Hamas rockets launching from right in the middle of civilian areas. The IDF then tracks the exact launch sites in real time and destroys them with precision strikes. This is the reality behind the “indiscriminate bombing” lie. Hamas hides among civilians, IDF targets the terrorists. Share this. The truth needs to be seen. 🇮🇱

Yet another slam at the pernicious nature of peer review

If you have to create a shared podium for the boy competing in the girls’ event, you’ve already admitted you know he isn’t a girl and that his participation is unfair. At that point, you're just seeking a public humiliation ritual for the girls.

Why is that, @KCProsecutor Manion?

Vote Yes on IL26-638 to protect Washington State's girls from boys trying to steal their spots.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers

So when the violent left attacks NICE agents the Pravda outlets will have to phrase it that way

Owning a gun doesn’t make you violent. It makes you harder to violate.

Neat idea. I hope it works out well

‘Trans people exist. I have no desire for them not to exist; indeed, I wish them safety, happiness and health. However, 'existence' does not, and should not, mean the violation of other people's right to privacy, dignity and freedom of speech, or the reconfiguration of society to indulge a fallacy.’ J.K. Rowling on Twitter/X.

So highly partisan political activities as well as defrauding donors? Those partisan activities mean the 501(c)(3) limitations are removed. SPLC should owe back taxes as well.

BUSTED!!! Remember the “ICE Nightmare” that went viral? That's where Sunny Naqvi claimed she was snatched at O’Hare, dragged across state lines to a Wisconsin jail, and dumped on the street in the middle of the night? Turns out she made the entire thing up. And here's the best part. The Wisconsin Sheriff just hit her with a $1 MILLION LAWSUIT after receipts, surveillance, texts, and phone pings proved she was at a Hampton Inn the entire time. There was ZERO arrest or detention of her. Here's the full story - REPOST this thing EVERYWHERE! #thinblueline #lawenforcement

This animal was ‘competent’ enough to vote. He was ‘competent’ enough to get welfare. He was ‘competent’ enough to get public housing. He was ‘competent’ enough to get EBT. He was ‘competent’ enough to get free bus rides. He was ‘competent’ enough to acquire a murder weapon. He was ‘competent’ enough to slice a girls throat in an instant. He was ‘competent’ enough to immediately brag about murdering “that white girl.” This animal was ‘competent’ enough to stand trial for 14 (!!!!) previous violent offenses and be set free. But now that he’s facing the death penalty he’s miraculously ‘incompetent’ and cannot be judged. My blood is boiling. Impeach and punish the corrupt judges who allowed this violent repeat offender to be free to kill Iryna. Federal charges better stick and deliver the death penalty to this monster, who was caught on camera committing racial hate murder. Make it a public execution. End this madness. We cannot share a society with these people. Kill evil.

The Royal Navy is no longer fit for service in NATO. In August 2022, HMS Prince of Wales sailed out of Portsmouth to cross the Atlantic for joint exercises with the US Navy. She was the pride of the modern Royal Navy. A four-billion-pound aircraft carrier. The flagship of Global Britain. She made it about 20 miles. Then the propeller shaft coupling sheared & one of only two carriers in the entire British fleet limped back to port and spent the better part of a year in dry dock while American carriers did the work Britain had promised to do. That’s the Royal Navy in 2026. It’s a museum with a TickTock account. I’ve called the Canadian Navy a glorified Coast Guard but the UK can’t even keep migrant boats off its shores. Nelson had over 100 ships of the line at Trafalgar. The fleet that fought WW2 had over 900 warships. Horatio Nelson John Fisher Andrew Cunningham David Beatty Bertram Ramsay Edward Hawke George Rodney Richard Howe John Jellico And First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill are all spinning in their graves. If they were resurrected today they would each give British PMs the lash. Today the Royal Navy has roughly 70 commissioned vessels. Maybe 15 of them are meaningful surface combatants. It sounds marginally ok but any given day, a significant percentage are in dry dock, undermanned, or waiting for spare parts. And China launches more tonnage in a quarter than the Royal Navy possesses in total. You do not rule the waves. You do not rule the Channel. You rule a Wikipedia. And it gets worse. You don’t even rule the world’s imagination anymore. Master and Commander came out a quarter century ago and nobody’s planning a sequel. Scooby Doo got a sequel, Jack Aubrey does not. It’s sad. It’s pathetic. But even more sad is the fact you don’t stand up and demand one. Neither does the former Navy commanding officer you call King. You have decided to roll over instead. All six Type 45 destroyers, the backbone of Britain’s air defense fleet, had to be pulled back for emergency refits because their engines lose power in warm water. Read that again. They were practically useless in the Red Sea because they don’t have enough missiles and you didn’t buy the anti-air computers for their deck guns. Your last few nuclear submarine launches went plop and instead of trying again or calling the American missile manufacturer to court… you shrugged. This is the nuclear deterrent that is supposed to be the foundation of British sovereignty, the reason Britain sits at the UN Security Council, the last credible claim to great power status. It fell in the water next to the boat. Your ancestors circumnavigated the globe in wooden ships powered by rope and canvas. You built a billion-pound destroyer that overheats off Bahrain. Your frigates are too few to cover your own approaches. When Russian submarines transit the English Channel, the French Navy often shadows them because the Royal Navy cannot respond in time. The French. In your Channel. Protecting you. Nelson ain’t spinning in his tomb. He’s in the Atlantic laughing at you. Americans patrol the Gulf you depend on for energy. Americans keep Taiwan’s chips flowing to your factories. Americans are the reason the Houthis have not fully closed the Red Sea to British-flagged shipping. We are happy to help until now. Until Starmer tried selling off our only base in the Indian Oceans then refused to let us land planes. OUR OWN BASE Yes he relented but only under pressure. We will help protect your interests but on one condition: DO NOTHING No selling bases No overflight refusals No more dock denials in Gibraltar No crazy ROE debates No politicians demeaning us in debates No threating Elon Musk And no more 134 Royal Navy Admirals in cosplaying aboard your 15 broken warships. Tell them to hang up their uniforms and go home. OR STAND UP, make the king overthrow parliament & fund a proper navy Fight for your birthright or F*ck off. Your choice.

RT @timsoret: As a European, I apologize to Americans for all the idiocy coming from our side. You save your pilots no matter the cost. Yo…
