Friends, I could really use some help. A large group of Amish builders from Ohio are spending the next FIVE MONTHS fixing homes damaged by Hurricane Helene for FREE in Western North Carolina and South Carolina. There's just one problem... the Amish don't drive, so they need drivers to take them back and forth to job sites and drop off trailers (if you have a truck). I have already volunteered to help, but we need more volunteers. If you feel led and are in the area, there's a sign up sheet in the comments. You'll get free breakfast and free dinner too + you'll get to meet some of the heroes who have been working here to rebuild.

🚨WOW!!! A college student is being praised as a HERO after she saw 3 little girls drowning in Lake Washington, jumped in, and saved ALL THREE GIRLS. The last one was UNCONSCIOUS, underwater, tangled in a rope, only her hair was still floating. All 3 SURVIVED!!!! ❤️ Her name is Lillie Vehling. She is an engineering student at UC Davis and an attacker on the women's water polo team. She was in Seattle for a summer internship and went to Seafair for the very first time, sitting at Genesee Park waiting on the Blue Angels with a book in her hands. Then she scanned the water. Three girls were out past the buoy line, bobbing, screaming, going under. She is a certified lifeguard who started her own swim lesson program, so she knew exactly what she was looking at. One of the girls was pushing the other two under just to get a breath. That is when she went in. She grabbed that girl first, to stop her from taking the other two down with her. Got her to shallow water. Went back for the second one. Then she went back a third time. By then the third girl was already gone under. Lillie: "I just saw her black hair in the water barely floating." The child was unconscious AND tangled in the rope of a buoy she had been clawing at to save her own life. Lillie got an arm under her, lifted her head out of the water, and hauled her to shore. The little girl coughed up the lake and came back. Seattle Fire paramedics met them on the beach. One girl went to Seattle Children's Hospital in stable condition. All three lived. Seafair's president found her that same day. Her first question was whether Lillie was okay. Her second was whether she could give her a hug. That night they brought her to the gala and knighted her "Lady Guardian of Lake Washington." Admirals lined up to meet her. And Lillie? She is chasing a career in the nuclear Navy. Seafair's president says she hopes the next time Lillie comes back to that lake, it is in a Blue Angels cockpit. "To save three people, I didn't think twice about myself." GOD BLESS Lillie Vehling, and GOD BLESS the firefighter who raised her. THIS IS THE AMERICA I KNOW!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Before her execution, she recorded a message for her mother: "I want the world to know what is being done to me." Reyhaneh Jabbari was 19 when a former intelligence officer tried to sexually assault her. She fought back. He died. She spent seven years in Evin Prison. The world signed petitions. Iran sharpened the rope. She was 26. Iran hanged her anyway. Rs Under Sharia law in Iran, to prove rape, a woman must produce four male witnesses to the act itself. Four. Male. Witnesses. If she cannot, her accusation becomes a confession. She is no longer the victim. She is the criminal and faces flogging. Or prison. Or death. This is not ancient history. This is the law that is still on the books today. The law that Abdul El-Sayed is asking Americans not to fear. Women in Iran don't have a #MeToo movement. They have a noose.
Islamic Republic in Iran hangs 24-Year-old woman who defended herself from sexual assault Yesterday the regime executed Marziyeh Neyri yesterday, a young woman who was forced into marriage at age 17 and hanged for fighting back against her attacker. Marziyeh was 18 years old when her husband's associate attempted to sexually assault her in her own home, in front of her husband. She grabbed a kitchen knife to defend herself. Her husband died in the struggle. She told the court she had been repeatedly assaulted by her husband's associates before that day. Iran's courts didn't care. The regime rejected her self-defense claim. Her attacker, who survived, took the stand and called her a murderer. The court believed him over her. She was sentenced to death. No clemency. No mercy. The sentence was carried out at Chubindar Prison in Qazvin. Marziyeh Neyri never had a chance. Forced into marriage as a child under Iran's Islamic laws, she spent the few years of her adult life in a courtroom, fighting for her life after defending it. She lost. This is the Sharia Laws in Islamic Republic of Iran where a woman can be hanged for surviving. 💔

Mike Rowe tells Bill Maher that his conservative friends “lost their minds” because he was talking to him…and his liberal friends “lost their minds” because he spoke to Glenn Beck — in the same week. That was the exact moment Maher interrupted Rowe with a legendary one-liner that light the place on fire: MAHER: “F*CK both of them!” [Audience erupts in laughter and applause] ROWE: “You know what?…” “It was truly the first time, though, I realized I don’t think people are listening to anything I’m saying. I think they’re looking at who I’m sitting next to.” MAHER: “Yeah, people don’t engage… I make this complaint all the time.” “I just say to people whenever they criticize me, are you engaging with the idea?” “If you are, we are good.” “If you’re just saying no, you’re old, you’re White, you’re this, you’re that, or on the other side, you’re Black….” “That’s not the idea. Engage with the idea!” ROWE: “What a concept!” [Applause]

Bill Maher’s audience audibly gasps when he reads what the Democratic Socialists of America are actually saying out loud: MAHER: “Trump has told 1 trillion lies, but when he says the DSA are actually COMMUNISTS, that’s not one of them.” “And it’s not hard to prove it just by quoting the DSA and their candidates.” “J.D. Vance was on the show, and I told him that if the Democratic Party keeps going in the direction of the DSA, my vote was in play. And all I heard all vacation was, ‘Oh, my God, you’re a Republican now.’ No, that's not what I said. I said in play, and here’s why.” “Because not a week goes by where I don’t read about some newly chosen, exciting new face in the Democratic Party. And then when that face opens its mouth, the Communist Manifesto or some other crazy shit comes out! Again.” “Let’s just read the quotes. The DSA platform says: ‘You work as much as you are able and no more than needed.’ If that was any closer to Karl Marx’s dictum, from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs, they’d be sued for plagiarism.” “New York Mayor Mamdani once tweeted, Karl Marx’s words exactly. They’re not trying to hide it. Their most popular influencer, Hasan Piker, thinks communism is so groovy, he laments the fall of two of the most murderous regimes in history, the Soviet Union and Chairman Mao's China.” “Mamdani's aide, his top aide, Cea Weaver, said, ‘If you don't believe in the government's sacred right to seize property, it's over.’ And ‘impoverish the white middle class.’ What? That's a goal? You know you're supposed to scare people into voting for you, right?” “One of the new, soon-to-be Democratic congresspeople, Darlesia Chavalier, supports seizing all properties from landlords and said, ‘Seize the means of production.’ Mamdani has said ‘The end goal is seizing the means of production.’ I think they want to seize the means of production.” “Now, maybe you missed that in school or missed school altogether, but THAT'S COMMUNISM.” “Now the coalition within the DSA called the Marxist Unity Group is in ascendance. And I must take them at their word. When their words include, ‘Our commitment is to the long-term struggle for a fully liberated classless society. In a word, communism.’” “What do they have to do, tweet out ‘Elect more communists’? Oh, yeah, Cea Weaver did that.” [Shows tweet, audience audibly gasps] “Yes, [she really did that]! ... People gotta realize this is going on.”

Josh Hawley brings the receipts and exposes Dr. Fauci for using 8 different federal employees on federal time to chase over $1,000,000 in cash prizes for himself. "You got RICH while people were dying." "You were using federal employees with TAXPAYER MONEY to apply for and solicit cash prizes for you personally. Cash prizes totaling over a million dollars." "And what were these individuals doing in the depth of the pandemic in November of 2020 when millions of Americans were suffering from COVID? What were they doing? I tell you what they're doing. Folkers was on your behalf soliciting and gathering information for a cash award." "Let's look at it. We've got his email right here. Right over my shoulder. Folkers says, 'I'm working on this nomination for the Dan David award for Fauci. We need to beef up the COVID part. Do you have language in the that you could share that delineates how we responded in new ways to Covid.'" "He sends this to multiple federal employees. What was the Dan David award? Do you remember, doc?" FAUCI: "On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution." HAWLEY: "It was a $900,000 cash award. $900,000 cash award. And he got it because he used federal employees to get it. And this wasn't the only award, was it, Dr. Fauci? In fact, you applied for and received at least eight other federal cash prizes on federal time using federal employees and federal resources. "Here they are over my shoulder. Besides the Dan David award, you've got the Partnership for Public Service. You've got the Adelson prize, you've got the Smithsonian award, you've got the National Academy of Medicines award, you've got the CDC Foundation. In fact, you turn your staff into a full-time application machine." "You actually wrote to people and said, 'Do you think maybe I'd qualify?' And you got cash for all of this. And it wasn't just one or two employees, was it? In fact, you used eight separate federal employees on federal time using federal resources to solicit cash awards. Isn't that true?" FAUCI: "On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution." HAWLEY: "Here they are, right over my shoulder. Here's all of them. The people that you use federal employees so that you could go and get cash money." [Names listed on board] – Greg Folkers – Lawrence Tabak – Holli Jaffe – Patricia Conrad – Courtney Billet – Louis Miller – Katherine Miller – Hugh Auchincloss "And the most hilarious part is that you weren't content to even dragoon them into applying for all of these cash awards. You then had them go out to the ethics agencies and ethics watchdogs and demand that you be able to get the money. That's right." "We've got it in your emails. Your staff and employees on federal time using federal resources, being paid with federal dollars, are soliciting cash for you. And then they're turning around and saying to the agency, 'We don't want just an answer. We want to get to yes.' "Because Fauci wants the money."

Someone explain this to me slowly, because I'm clearly the idiot here. We plant a Mediterranean nut in a Californian desert. It doesn't rain there, so we drain a ten-thousand-year-old aquifer until the ground itself sinks a foot a year and whole towns get shorter. The trees can't fight off fungus, so we spray the lot. They can't pollinate themselves, so every February we truck thirty billion bees across a continent and let a fair share of them die in the crush. Then we chill the harvest and sail it six thousand miles to Britain, where it rains constantly and always has, to be blitzed with water and gums and sold to you at £2.40 a carton with a green leaf on the side. That is the environmentally friendly option. Twelve miles down the road there's a bloke with cattle in a field. Rain falls on the hill. Grass drinks it. Cow eats grass. Nothing pumped, sprayed, chilled or shipped. No bees died. Her entire supply chain is weather. That is the planetary emergency. And it'll be explained to you by someone holding a carton of desert water, wearing a fleece made of crude oil. Asking for the cow. She's been very patient about it.

Anita Popist—a female Iranian singer—has been sentenced to 74 lashes by the Islamic regime in Iran for singing and refusing to wear the hijab. This has received no coverage in the mainstream media. No condemnations from political leaders or celebrities. Where are the protests?

While the world watches the war, the Islamic Republic of Iran hanged a 19-year-old boy today. His name is Erfan Esfandiari and he was his parents' only child. He did not kill anyone. He did not carry a weapon. His crime, according to the Islamic Republic, was opening a door. Sheltering protesters who were running from security forces. That was enough to send him to the gallows. Erfan was one of 12 young men in the Alikhani Square case in Isfahan, arrested during the January 2026 uprising. Yesterday, all 12 were moved to quarantine. Today, the Islamic Republic hanged him. This is a government that is so terrified of a generation that refuses to be silent, that it executes teenagers for the act of compassion. Say his name. Because the regime is already trying to erase him. Because his mother and father are left with nothing, not even the right to grieve loudly.

New 2026 lawsuit shows companies, including Fortune 500 companies are using an AI software that automatically filters out job applicants based on personal data The AI takes your location info, social media posts, even web searches and automatically rejects your job application (INSANE) “If you've been applying to any corporate jobs lately, the reason you got rejected or never even received a response is far crazier than you ever could have thought. A lawsuit just exposed Eightfold AI, the company Microsoft and many other giants use to score your application. And in that lawsuit, they're saying that Eightfold AI is not doing what we all thought, which was just kind of processing your application and giving you a little score. They're actually taking all the data they can find about you; your location history, your web searches, your social profiles, files, combining all of it and giving you a score, 0 out of 5. And if you have a low one, they're not ever gonna look at you. So yeah, now we have a social credit score for applications” Here’s more information: It’s a real class-action lawsuit filed in 2026 against Eightfold AI. They are a major AI-powered hiring platform used by companies like Microsoft, PayPal, Morgan Stanley, Starbucks, Chevron, Bayer and more Secret scoring system works like this Eightfold’s tools allegedly generate a “Match Score” or “likelihood of success” score from 0 to 5 for applicants Low-scoring candidates are often automatically filtered out automatically before any human recruiter sees their application The AI supposedly uses extensive data collections and aggregates far more than just your resume and over letter. This includes: - Social media profiles (e.g., LinkedIn) - Location and history data - Internet activity including web searches - Other third-party tracking data, the suit mentions vast datasets with 1.5+ billion data points There is no transparency or recourse Applicants allegedly aren’t notified, given a chance to review/correct the data, or informed of adverse actions The plaintiffs argue violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and California’s Investigative Consumer Reporting Agencies Act This should definitely be banned
