Descripción

What do you know about Iran? This article was written by a 26-yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspective My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us! I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around. I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it. Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose. These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought. We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!! Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ?? Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity." Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in. When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided. My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress. Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country. People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism. Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism. We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

Fat Kid Silence - Weekend Recap 07-04-26

Take this heartbreaking story. A seven-year-old boy died weighing 255 pounds. Seven. Years. Old. Two hundred fifty-five pounds. Folks, that's not "a little chunky." That's not "he's just big-boned." That's not "he'll grow into it." That's a fourth grader who weighed more than the average NFL running back. And somehow...every adult in his orbit found the courage to say absolutely nothing. That's modern progress. We've built a society where people can identify sixteen genders before they can identify child abuse. Think about the insanity of it. If a kid showed up every day with two black eyes, everybody would know something's wrong. If a kid showed up starving, ribs sticking out, CPS would be called before lunch. But if he gains two hundred extra pounds before second grade... "Well...we don't want to fat-shame." Fat-shame? How about parent-shame? Because somewhere along the line we've confused compassion with cowardice. The Left has spent years teaching America that every uncomfortable truth is somehow violence. Don't tell people they're overweight. Don't tell parents they're failing. Don't judge. Don't interfere. Don't question. You do you. That's become the Democratic Party's national anthem. Except here's the problem. Sometimes "you do you" becomes "you bury your kid." This child's weight didn't sneak up on anybody. He didn't wake up on Tuesday and suddenly weigh 255 pounds. Every doctor saw him.

Taboo Trump - Weekend Recap 07-04-26

And how about the Biden coverup? Joe Biden spoke publicly again, and he didn’t disappoint. Yet again, Biden proved to be a buffoon. I’m actually surprised Democrats let this guy out. Remember in 2020 they kept him in the basement so they could steal the election. I predict he will have disappear soon. “Where’s my granddaughter!?” At issue are roughly 70 hours of audio recordings captured during conversations for Biden’s 2017 memoir, Promise Me, Dad. Biden’s legal team argued the recordings include deeply personal discussions, including references to the death of his son Beau and should remain private despite becoming part of a federal investigation. In a May statement, Mike Howell, president of The Heritage Foundation’s The Oversight Project, said, per Politico, that the “tapes will further prove the massive lie regarding Biden’s fitness for office and the fact Biden revealed classified information.” Democrats don't want us to know what we already know. Think about how absurd that sentence is. They spent years insisting Joe Biden was fine. Sharp. Focused. In command. The media treated every obvious cognitive malfunction as if Americans had accidentally wandered into a mass hallucination. Then came the legal fight over the tapes. And that's the confession. Because nobody fights to suppress evidence that vindicates them. If these recordings showed Biden operating like the strategic mastermind Democrats claimed he was, they'd release them with a commemorative soundtrack and a Netflix special. Instead, they lawyered up faster than a mob accountant during tax season. Why?

Independence or Bust - Ep 26-262

What’s up America! Is it possible to feel SO good about the country, but then realize how crazy things are? Who would believe we would be fighting harder for independence today that our forefathers 250 years ago, then aga during WWII? We have a president who is sane, and insanely competent, and here’s a headline about him: Trump recalls conversation with Theodore Roosevelt who died 27 years before he was born. The media's clutching pearls like he just confessed to time travel. [X] SB - Pritzker The same media who completely ignored Biden’s brain dysfunction, and actually covered it up. This is the level to which the Left will go to make YOU look bad, and try to cover for their own idiocy. Why would we EVER trust them? Speaking of self-inflicted wounds, another Democrat just got primaried by a DSA darling in Colorado. This fresh-faced radical called 911 "inevitable." Democrats finally are showing their true self… In our nation's 250th year. Democrats aren't just flirting with the fringe anymore—they're electing America-hating Islamists and straight-up Nazis with party-branded ballots. [X] SB – Schiff on Chevalier Communism, Marxist ideology, seizing means of production Closing prison Police, borders, ICE gone Growing brand of Democrat problem See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy [https://art19.com/privacy] and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info [https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info].

Political Unicorn - Ep 26-261

Happy Independence Day, early. I hope you have a wonderful time with family and friends. What a great country we have. God’s gift. We have every right to blow our own horn. The good news no matter what the issue is our president. America has a leader. I will credit Kennedy as a leader. Then Reagan. Both these guys changed the trajectory of the presidency. Washington has spent decades running a casino where the house always wins, the games are rigged with ideology, and the customers keep paying for tickets that promise occasional jackpots that never seem to come. Then along comes a guy who looks at the whole operation and asks, “How can this casino be losing money?” That is Donald Trump in a nutshell. He is the political unicorn America did not know it needed until the deficits kept piling up and the same arguments kept circling the drain. In this first segment of our arc on Trump the pragmatist, we zero in on the sheer anomaly of the man himself, the one who treats government like the badly managed enterprise it has become rather than a permanent stage for team colors and emotional theater. Trump saw government the way a builder sees a collapsing structure. Old-school business did not care about your feelings or your donor list. It cared whether the numbers landed in black or bled red. Government, by contrast, has run in permanent red for longer than most voters have been alive, borrowing against tomorrow to fund today’s slogans. The result is a system where problems are not solved; they are weaponized for the next election cycle. Career politicians from both aisles perfected the art of keeping issues alive just enough to stay relevant. Trump walked in without that training. He saw a leaky roof and reached for the ladder instead of forming a committee to study the symbolism of the leak.

Defying Reason - Ep 26-260

[X] SB – Scott Jennings about America under attack The Constitution isn't a scratch-off lottery ticket. You don't accidentally win citizenship because your mom's contractions beat TSA. [X] SB – Part 2 Some people read the Fourteenth Amendment like it's a promotional flyer:  Congratulations! Free citizenship! No purchase necessary." The Founders wrote a Constitution. Today, some people read it like it's a coupon. Given these stats, it’s no wonder people want to drop anchor babies in America. In ONE STATE they matched SNAP records with Vehicle registrations and found 14,000 with luxury cars 3 Bentleys 3 Ferraris 11 Lamborghinis 59 Maseratis 41 Porsches 244 Alfa Romeos 306 Land Rovers 2,098 Teslas. 3,636 Lexuses, 2,560 Mercedes 1,914 BMWs For a country we're constantly told is collapsing under the weight of racism, capitalism, climate change, gluten, and mean tweets... there sure are a lot of people trying to get in. Nobody's advertising: "Vacation in North Korea. Stay for the freedom." Nobody's saying, "Honey, book that emergency flight to Somalia. The baby's due Thursday!" If America is such a horrible place, why is there an entire global industry dedicated to getting American citizenship? There are consultants. Lawyers. Travel agencies.
