EXACTLY.
If they're worth fighting then they're worth killing,
And if they're not worth killing they're not worth fighting to begin with.
Mr. Vice-President,
Please allow me to present a different perspective.
The problem was not the Iran War. It was the cease fire.
If you start a war, you need to win it and finish it – otherwise don’t start it.
This war should have been over six months ago, with the Strait of Hormuz wide open and oil flowing. The second and third tiers of Iranian leadership should have been destroyed, and we should have supported the pro-western forces who could have taken leadership. We stood on the brink of a new, more peaceful Middle East - and then we blinked. We had a chance not only to deny Iran nuclear weapons, but to get rid of the world’s biggest supporter of terrorism.
Instead, we had a cease fire, which was followed by months of will we or won’t we finish the job. Every day was a different message. There still is. Is the war over? Is it about to begin? No one knows. There is confusion and inconsistency.
In June 2025, America was not involved. This was an Israel vs Iran issue.
No one forced the United States to attack Iran then, or in February of 2026. It was a decision made by President Trump. In my opinion, it was the right decision.
Once the decision was made, we should not have stopped until the regime fell. But instead, you negotiated a cease fire that didn’t last, didn’t work and left us in no man’s land, with higher prices and our troops still deployed.
Our troops could have been home, the Navy returned to its bases, a peaceful regime in place , new alliances forged, and gas prices below $3.00 a gallon.
No, Mr. Vice President. It’s not the war. It’s the so-called cease fire.
RE: Texas.
I guess there really wasn't any other way to get rid of placeholder Abbott, grifter Ken Paxton, and wannabe Carrie Nation cross-dresser Dan Patrick.
So what should the GOP learn from yesterday?
One thing is now whoever runs for President for the GOP in 2008 can do so without having to kiss Trump's ass.

"The century of progressivism did not go well. The European system that Wilson and the progressives scolded Americans for not adopting—which he called nearly perfect—led to the governments that caused the most awful century that the world has ever seen. Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and Mao all were intertwined with the rise of progressivism, and all were opposed to the natural rights on which our Declaration is based. Many progressives expressed admiration for each of them shortly before their governments killed tens of millions of people. It was a terrible mistake to adopt progressivism’s rejection of the Declaration’s vision of universal, unalienable natural rights."
-Justice Clarence Thomas, 2026
Follow the money.
When the United Nations leadership uses terms like 'global boiling,' it signals a deliberate shift from empirical debate to emotional blackmail.
Under the banner of saving the planet, a far-reaching political transformation is taking place. Behind public figureheads like António Guterres stands a vast, unelected apparatus - thousands of embedded bureaucrats shaping policy away from the public eye. They are becoming globalists.
The UN has morphed into one of the largest unelected institutions in world history, absorbing $68 to $74 billion annually. This includes over $5 billion for peacekeeping operations and billions more to maintain a global workforce of up to 190,000 personnel.
Beyond them lies an eager corporate queue waiting to cash in on an orgy of cash from a transition projected to absorb $275 trillion. The bureaucracy builds the mandate; the market gets the payout.
This is not simple administrative overreach; it's a psychological operation executed through calculated PR strategy. By anchoring public policy to extreme worst-case scenarios, the architects manufacture a permanent state of hyper-emergency.
Beneath the cover of crisis, national sovereignty is being dismantled and local democracy replaced with a centralised, unaccountable regime. Stripped of the apocalyptic narrative, the reality becomes clear: an unprecedented transfer of wealth and political control designed to consolidate power before the narrative bubble bursts.
Today, everyday people face a carefully shrouded energy agenda wrapped in dense jargon, and a UN structure that remains entirely opaque. Expressing a valid, common-sense concern is treated as an offense against orthodoxy. The greatest strength of this campaign lies in its deliberate complexity.
Ultimately, this globalist network operates a form of ultra-socialism - not by replacing corporate power but by bending it to suit globalism. Globalism now controls industrial policy, rations energy access and cross-border wealth redistribution. The cash cow mentality is anchored by lucrative mechanisms like the UN-monopolised carbon credit scheme.
While near-term transactions are projected under $10 billion through 2030, this framework is engineered to become a multi-hundred-billion-dollar annual pay cheque by the 2040s - locking in political control through perpetual rivers of gold.
Take a very, very good look at this photo from The Financial Post. Think about what you're seeing.
Across the rich world, nearly a quarter of all development aid now goes to climate projects.
The core problem is opportunity cost. Every dollar subsidizing solar panels or carbon accounting is a dollar not spent on schools, maternal health or clean water.

I guess we should feel lucky that Adolf Hitler isn't alive today. If he was, Trump would be making fuel deals with him.

Socialists often condemn capitalism as oppression or slavery because people must work to earn a living. Yet socialism doesn't eliminate the necessity of work or the cost of living. It merely attempts to transfer that responsibility to someone else, compelling them to provide for others without their consent.
Apparently, having to work for your own livelihood is slavery, but being forced to work for someone else's is liberation.

“The rise of fascism and naziism was not a reaction against the socialist trends of the preceding period but a necessary outcome of those tendencies.”

Milton Friedman: “The problem with government is the absence of any mechanism for recognizing errors. What the private system abounds in is survival of the fittest.”
“What the governmental system abounds in is expansion of the mistakes. There is no mechanism for eliminating governmental agencies which are no longer needed or have behaved perversely.”

People Over Climate
We are spending trillions of dollars on climate policies that barely move the temperature needle even in a century. What else could those resources achieve?

If envy prompts policies of confiscatory taxation against the successful, everyone loses. Talent flees the country. Wealth generation slows. And a gloomy, mean spirited socialism poisons public life.

Even if AI posed a serious risk to humanity, that wouldn’t establish that the politicians sounding the loudest alarms should be entrusted with controlling it.
The question isn’t merely “Is AI dangerous?” It’s also “Compared with what, and controlled by whom?”
Handing enormous power over technological development to politicians because technology might become dangerously powerful doesn’t eliminate the concentration-of-power problem. It creates a second one.

Sixty-two years and $22 trillion later, the U.S. poverty rate sits at roughly 11 percent, almost identical to where Lyndon Johnson found it in 1964. The government ran the most expensive social experiment in human history and produced nothing measurable. Bureaucracies perpetuate themselves, and this policy worked exactly as designed.
When Washington transfers purchasing power to the poor through SNAP, Medicaid, housing vouchers, and 126 other overlapping programs, it doesn't eliminate scarcity; it relocates decision-making from individuals to administrators. Those administrators develop career interests in perpetuating dependency, because a solved problem eliminates their department.
Free market thinkers identified this perverse incentive structure before Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act. Every dollar taxed from productive activity carries a deadweight cost before it reaches anyone's dinner table.
Capital formation lifts people out of poverty. You build wealth through savings, property rights, and voluntary exchange, none of which $22 trillion in redistributed spending actually produced.
More science.

Twitter tried to censor it but just wound up exposing (again) the lying nature of climate alarmism.
Added bonus: My explanation and warming prediction.
