A) getting real tired of Democrats saying the only way to win the Latino vote is to usher in mass amnesty. There's nothing more racist than suggesting all Latinos are illegal immigrants.
B) If either party thinks the way to win back a substantial portion of the electorate is mass amnesty & open borders, you've got another thing comin when Gen Z makes up the majority of voters in America... which is probably why they want to import 20 million new voters overnight 🙄

Abdul El-Sayed did an event with him two weeks ago.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio @SecRubio has made the correct decision in ordering Lebanon’s consul general in Detroit, Ibrahim Charara, to leave the U.S. immediately for his posts praising the 1983 Hezbollah bombing of U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut that killed 241 Americans.
We do not tolerate terrorists or their sympathizers as diplomats to the United States.
This disgusting rhetoric should be condemned by the Lebanese government.

"The day after he murdered Katie he was back with the kids at school" This story is unreal.
This recent murder in Brooklyn can not be swept under the rug.
Sayed Mohassib murdered Katie Suarez under a bridge on October 30th while she was on a run. He was caught and arrested on this past Saturday.
Authorities said Mohassib told detectives that after returning home, he "got rid of the bloody clothing" and "the knife," adding that he "got blood in his apartment which he attempted to clean."
Mohassib told investigators he "sat down on a bench" and "became covered in blood."
Mohassib was employed by The Department of Education, The NYPD as almost The Marines.
His NYPD graduates at the police academy claimed they were scared to be around him, but he graduated anyway and became an officer for a brief period.
He left The NYPD to join The Marines, but he was deemed "incongruent with Marine Corps' expectations and standards" so he came back to The NYPD and demanded his job back, but was denied.
The NYPD had to put out a memo about him coming back to the building and put posters of his face up to not be let in the building because he became erratic.
In September 2024, his mental state deteriorated further. Police were called to his home after his mother and sister reported that he threatened to "chop them into pieces." The NYPD responded and transported him to Coney Island Hospital for another mental health evaluation. Neighbors and members of his local mosque later noted that both Mohassib and his father suffered from severe mental illnesses, which went largely unmanaged.
After he was released he later applied with The Department of Education and was hired. The day after he murdered Katie he was back with the kids at school and for another week until security cameras caught him and the cops were able to confirm him as the suspect.
His Mother Fatma issued this statement:
"He's a black belt, he goes to Boy Scouts all his life, goes to the mosque all his life, he goes to Brooklyn College, the team basketball, excellent boy,"
"He never attacked me, never attacked his sister, never attacked anyone in the neighborhood," she adds.
"My heart goes deep to the mother and the father. Just, we both lost, you lost your daughter, I lost my son," said Fatma.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani, has said his role is suspended at The DOE at this time, although he did not name Mohassib.
The fact that Mohassib was watching peoples children and carrying a gun and NYPD badge is beyond belief. He should have been institutionalized a long time ago and in no way should this have gone unoticed
Katie Suarez, saved the lives of four people through organ donation, according to nonprofit organization LiveOnNY.
I pray for Katie Suarez and her family. May she rest in eternal peace.

Because you have 1.2% Muslims, but you have 53% of the crazy progressive liberals backing them up, helping them get elected.
American believes there is likely no way to avoid a civil war because of the alliance of Muslims and Liberals
“Why would they want to conquer Texas? Well, if you think about it, agriculture, border, oil, landmass. If they can conquer Texas, they're taking us all down. I started having conversations with people and they're like, I don't know how we get the horse back into the barn at this point.
And the cowboys are like, if the police and politicians won't stand up, we're going to have to fight. And ultimately, I think that we're going to have to fight to save our country. I think we're going to head into another civil war.
Because you have 1.2% Muslims, but you have 53% of the crazy progressive liberals backing them up, helping them get elected. And that's exactly what happened in 1979 Iran — In 1979, they were bankers, lawyers, doctors. They could wear bikinis. They were secular. They were Jewish. They were Christian. They were Catholic. And I guess you've got the same woman who like the liberals who think they don't have enough freedom. So they assisted the IRGC thinking they would get more freedom. And once they completely took over and women were fully covered, they executed about 30,000 of them. So these people don't realize that they're just a pawn in their game”
People don’t realize this wasn’t that long ago, this happened in the 80s. The same people are alive and haven’t stopped planning our takeover and the results will be the same. They will take up over and start executing us
If you use AI to ask who would win a civil war, it’s conservatives by a landslide

If Democrats were actually capable of delivering affordability, the deepest blue cities would be the most affordable places in the country.
Instead, all they can come up with is some half-witted tax scheme to try and bribe the lower/middle class with a few crumbs of subsidies to convince them to not flee.
It's like, "Yeah we're completely incapable of actually lowering your electric bill, but how about a $75 'electric rebate' check every month and some free LED light bulbs. All it will take is an extra billion in taxes on the high-value businesses that haven't left yet. Doesn't that sound great?"
Literally this is how every single 'affordability' problem is approached here. Of course everything just gets more expensive. But none of them care because they're all making money skimming the nonprofits who administer their redistributionist schemes, and they don't have to worry about being reelected.
You try and explain the obvious flaws in this reasoning to them -- most notably that they've been doing this for years now and literally nothing has gotten more affordable -- and it's just met with blank stares. This is the absolute best they can do.
If it doesn't work, that means the problem simply cannot be solved. Which, of course, is justification for even MORE taxes and redistribution.

Pass legislation that defunds, disenfranchises, and dismantles institutions that promote Leftism. Pass additional laws that repel Leftists from moving in. Make your state as actively hostile to Progressivism as possible.
Florida is a good example of this. Had DeSantis not pushed the envelope as hard as he did, Republicans likely would have lost Florida in the midterms because the legislature was originally too spineless to pick any battles that were “divisive” or “contentious”.
But politics by its very nature is divisive and contentious. That’s what makes something political in the first place.
If you do not take your own side, no one ever will for you.

Bill Maher and Coleman Hughes finish each other's sentences for 3 minutes straight as they lay out how teachers' unions wrecked public education.
The MS NOW host thought she could sit this one out quietly. Then Maher turned and lobbed a grenade right at her.
MAHER: "The reason why they don't know that socialism didn't work... is because NOBODY taught them in school."
HUGHES: "A lot of kids go to underperforming public schools, which is our euphemism for government-funded daycare centers with occasional school-like activities."
MAHER: "I knew they weren't learning anything, but like you said, it's like a daycare center and not a good one."
HUGHES: "And I think people on the left want to blame funding because that's the easy issue. But the truth is, this school was well funded. You know, it's 50,000 per pupil at this school. The problem isn't the funding. It's that you can't fire anyone bad."
MAHER: "Yes.... The problem is the union, the teachers union, is too powerful. We've seen it in results in states where the union is less powerful, the schools do better."
HUGHES: "I call it the chalkboard mafia."
MAHER: "The problem, the unions protect bad schools and bad teachers, and the party protects the union. It's almost impossible in a lot of these cities to fire a teacher. I mean literally like you could sell drugs to a kid and it's got to be two offenses before we get—"
HUGHES: "It wasn't that long ago that the unions lobbied for a law in New York State to ban even collecting data that you would use to assess which teachers are better than others. You can't even get the data. So obviously the teachers union serves the teachers, they don't serve the students, and if you're a Democrat or any American that's serious about public school reform, you have to challenge the teachers union, period."
MAHER: "And I think in this school, where they were learning nothing with no supervision and absentee principals and teachers, I think spending 50,000 dollars per year per student, it's not money. That's what you always hear from the left. 'Oh, it's underfunded.' It's not the funding. The funding isn't the issue."
HUGHES: "No, it hasn't been for a very long time."
MAHER: "I think this is the kind of thing I will NEVER hear on MS NOW."
ALI VITALI: "I think you hear a lot of perspectives on MS NOW."
MAHER: "I don't ever hear that one."
CONTEXT: Maher and Hughes aren't making this up. On the latest Nation's Report Card, high school seniors posted the lowest reading and math scores ever recorded on the test.
And getting rid of bad teachers is nearly impossible. Federal survey data shows the average school district dismissed just 0.2 tenured teachers for poor performance in a year. That's roughly 1 in 500.
Meanwhile, students do better long-term in states where unions have less power.
A 2019 study in the American Economic Journal found that boys who went to school in states that forced districts to bargain with teachers' unions went on to earn about $2,100 LESS per year as adults compared to boys in states without those laws.
If a business failed this badly, someone would get fired. As Hughes put it: "The teachers union serves the teachers; they don't serve the students."

After taking some time to pray about and digest the election results which, admittedly, were not the ones I'd hoped for, I have to admit there's a part of me that's not disappointed that the results were what they were. For if the opposite had come to pass, perhaps—I said perhaps—I, and many of my fellow Christian conservatives, might have been tempted to glory in ourselves and in our own efforts and accomplishments, instead of directing that glory to Whom it was due—and is due still. God has ways of (re)orienting our affections in the proper direction (Psalm 115:1). Just my thoughts.
