Rand Paul reveals Washington spent $4,600,000 of YOUR money to find out whether getting drunk makes you FALL DOWN.
Another $3,000,000 went to studying whether eating ants fights global warming.
$7,000,000 on a “smart toilet” that photographs your backside.
And $2,000,000 to learn if hot tubs help you relax.
Rand Paul kept the receipts. It gets dumber:
• NIH spent $1,000,000 to help people get over their fear of the dentist.
• USAID spent $48,000,000 to help disconnected Tunisian youth cope with modern society.
• NIH spent $36,000,000 to find out why stress turns hair gray.
• Washington even sent money to Central America to train people on how to apply for U.S. grants. Yes, really. We paid them to get better at taking our money.
Not one American with an ounce of common sense would vote to approve a dime of this garbage.
The government pisses away billions like this and never stops asking for MORE.

Elon Musk says legacy media was built for a world where information had to pass through a central publication.
The internet changed that.teapawt.net/MarsUniversityX/status…
Musk argues that people can now hear directly from millions of others around the world, without relying on a single editor to decide what matters.
“That’s why X is the future.”
His vision is simple: citizen journalism where the people help decide the news, the narrative and what deserves attention.

Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling announces 72,000 manufacturing jobs added this year. Including 9,000 in September alone.
September Jobs Report:
Construction: +11,000
Healthcare: +17,000
Private sector: +46,000
Government: -17,000
Manufacturing has expanded for nine straight months after years of decline. Private-sector jobs are growing while government employment is shrinking.
This is what I voted for.

Now that Governor Maura Healey has backed Mike Minogue's position on the gas tax, which of Minogue's policies would you like to see Healey adopt next?
How about repealing the net zero mandates?
If Governor Healey believes Massachusetts families cannot afford another 24 cents at the pump today, she should be willing to take the same hard look at every state mandate driving up the cost of keeping the
lights on and heating our homes.

🚨 RUBIO JUST SAID THE NUMBER THEY NEVER WANTED ON TV 🚨
Americans work 40 years.
They retire.
Social Security: $800. $900. A thousand a month.
Somebody who got here from Cuba three months ago: $1,500 a month.
Marco Rubio said it out loud.
“So imagine if you’ve been working here for 40 years and your Social Security check is smaller than the benefits going to a 28-year-old, able-bodied person who just got here. That’s real. That happens. That’s happening every day. That makes no sense.”
You paid in.
They landed.
They beat your check.
That’s not compassion.
That’s a slap in the face with your own tax dollars.

🚨 THE MISSISSIPPI MIRACLE THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE
American 15-year-olds just posted near-WORST scores ever on a key global reading and math test.
Meanwhile Mississippi, once ranked 47th in 4th grade reading… is now 9th.
Adjust for demographics?
NUMBER ONE in the nation in 4th grade reading and math.
NUMBER ONE in 8th grade math.
A Black child in Mississippi is 2.5X more likely to be proficient in reading by 4th grade than a child in California.
They spend about $11,000 LESS per student than Massachusetts and they’re beating them.
How?
Science of reading.
3rd grade retention if you can’t read.
Charters in failing districts.
School choice for special needs.
RAISED standards, not lowered them.
Governor Tate Reeves: conservative reforms + accountability work for EVERY kid.
Blue states keep dumbing it down.
Mississippi raised the bar, and the kids met it.
This is the model. Copy it.

🚨 @mikeroweworks is absolutely right. The work ethics have to change in this country. People need to get off their butts and do it..

Raising Men > Raising Soft Boys
I’m raising men, not boys.
That means I don’t always choose the easy path for them.
Son comes in from the four-wheeler: “Mom, it ran out of gas.”
Her response? “You know where the gas can is. Get walkin’.”
Half a mile. Heavy can. No ride. No help.
He did it.
That’s the whole game right there.
Too many parents are so busy protecting their kids from every little inconvenience that they raise soft, helpless adults who can’t solve a basic problem without crying for help.
This mom gets it.
You’re not doing them any favors by making life easier. You’re stealing the chance for them to become capable.
Hard work. Responsibility. Solving your own problems.
That’s how you raise men who can handle the real world.
Everything else is just raising dependents.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump is demanding an IMMEDIATE END to Standard Time, making Daylight Saving Time PERMANENT
POTUS argues it’ll LOWER the vioIent crime rate as well.
TRUMP: “People are sick and tired of having to change their clocks twice a year. It is foolish, inconvenient and, in some cases, very costly.”
“A recent case was made that it is also bad for your health in the anxiety it creates. Leading Medical, Crime, and Economic Studies have shown that ceasing the biannual time change, giving us one extra hour of natural sunlight in the evenings, will help Decrease Robbery and Murder Rates, Reduce Car Accidents (especially those involving Pedestrians!), Lower Risk for Cardiac Issues, Stroke, and Seasonal Depression, Make It Safer for Children to Walk Home from School, Increase Time with your Family, Strongly Support Extracurricular Activities, Be a Big Boost to Sports, Fitness, Tourism, Retail, and the Restaurant Industries (and more!), and Save Money on Energy Bills, because everyone will be enjoying an EXTRA HOUR OF DAYLIGHT.”

🚨 TRUMP JUST DROPPED THE HAMMER ON DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME
For decades Americans have begged to end the twice-a-year clock change. Every administration failed. Until now.
The House just PASSED the bill. It’s sitting on the Senate’s desk. Trump is calling it what it is: the Sunshine Protection Act.
No more springing forward. No more falling back. Permanent daylight. One extra hour of sun in the evenings. Less crime. Fewer car accidents. Safer kids walking home from school. More family time. Big boost for sports, restaurants, retail, tourism. Lower energy bills.
This isn’t left or right. It’s common sense.
Republicans, Democrats, Independents, unite and finish the job.
Republican Senators: PASS IT. NOW.
America is done changing the clocks. Leave it as it is and never change it again.

🚨 NO PHONES. BEST LITTLE LEAGUE SEASON IN 63 YEARS.
A Long Island Little League team locked the kids’ phones away five hours before every game.
Result? Their best season in over six decades.
The assistant coach said it simply: when the apps and distractions disappear, the kids actually talk to each other, focus on the game, and get locked in.
The kids love it.
Structure works.
Focus works.
Phones don’t. Maybe the rest of the country should take notes.
