I’ve asked this before but is there any historical event that is like the Opposite of 9/11. Like something so good that happened that it changed the world forever

Under the Six Penny Plan, Congress needs to find a six-percentage-point cut each year for five years. After that, once the budget is balanced, spending can increase based on the additional revenue from economic growth. foxnews.com/opinion/sen-rand…

I’d like to apologize to Taylor Swift. The other day she got excited at a football game, pointed at her ring, and said, “MY HUSBAND!” And I made a joke about it. But the more I thought about it, what the hell am I making fun of? Here’s a woman who has just about everything in the world, and she’s excited to tell everybody, “That’s my man.” Proud of him. Cheering him on. Happy to be his wife. More women should be that supportive—and more men should give them a reason to be. We hear enough about how men are useless and marriage is a trap. Here’s somebody showing millions of women that loving a good man and being excited about marriage is something to celebrate. We ought to encourage that. I went looking for a punchline and missed the point. Keep cheering, Taylor.

Without government, who would detain you for legally protecting yourself due to death threats?
This guy got arrested at a Christmas parade in Florida for wearing a body armor vest concealed under his shirt… The problem is, that wasn’t illegal. I saw this in the news, with cops taking a victory lap and Karens rejoicing about it, so I put in a request for the footage… And it’s worse than I even thought it would be… Full video 👇🏼(originally posted February 10, 2026)

Our hearts are broken to announce the passing of our beloved friend and colleague Raul Espinoza who was involved in a car wreck yesterday. We have never known a more loving Dad, devoted husband, loyal friend, or ardent patriot. We will miss him terribly.

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 Peter 2:1
Episcopal priestess says Mary assigned Jesus male at birth, but he was trans. And when he was resurrected, he came back as His true, transgender self.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Before his birth, during his life, & after Jesus rose, he was always referred to as a male. Gabriel tells Mary she will bear a son & to name him Jesus (Luke 1:31–32). Woman, behold your son (John 19:26) He said to them… as he was teaching… (John 20). catholic.com/magazine/onlin…

Amy Klobuchar has now used the exact same photo to ring in the Vikings season opener four years in a row. So authentic.

Good morning. This is your regular reminder that the unions are not your friends and consistently oppose conservative values and support the worst policies in an attempt to move us toward direct democracy. Oh, and they fund baby killers. #moleg

I’ve seen countless video clips from that tragic day, and I watched much of it play out on live television as a freshman in high school. This is the first time I’ve seen this video, and it’s one of the most haunting. #NeverForget
