When I read this (the post quoted below) all the way through, at the end I was literally nauseous.
This was never about Trump. Instead, this was ALWAYS about We, the People.
You see, the American electorate Constitutionally expressed its will in 2016 in electing Donald Trump as President, and the unelected, unaccountable, bureaucratic "experts" of the Deep State decided that THEY KNEW BETTER and that they would overturn the American electorate's choice "for its own good."
NOTHING describes the dangers of the vast, unelected federal Leviathan better than the description of what they did here.
What these men and women did was treason, plain and simple.
And in a just world they would be facing the consequences of committing treason, but we apparently do not live in a just world.

RE: Intra-Party Squabbles
As we watch Tucker Carlson and his elite group of emotionally wounded narcissists do everything they can to destroy the Republican Party and hand the federal government to literal Communists (who knows why they are doing this), I think it’s important that Republicans understand the Democrat tactic of ALWAYS uniting behind their party’s candidates so we can adopt the same approach.
I’ll explain using a personal example.
I’m not sure who I will support for President in 2028. I used to think I would be a slam dunk for JD Vance, but frankly some of his associations, his connections to this “common good” movement and his handling of the Iran negotiations have given me pause. I have not really dug deep into any of this yet, so it could be that I am being superficially swayed by false reports, but the fact is I may choose a preferred Presidential candidate for the GOP that is not the choice of many other Republicans.
That’s OK.
As we swing into primary season (which will heat up the minute the 2026 midterms are over), we in the GOP SHOULD vigorously debate who we want as President. Vance? DeSantis? Rubio? Gabbard? Let the arguments flow. Be fierce. Be committed. Stand by your beliefs and fight for your candidate. THAT is America.
But know this—whomever I support, once the GOP candidate is chosen through the primary process, THAT is my candidate who I will fight for tooth and nail.
Why?
Because the alternative is LITERAL COMMUNISTS.
Too many on the Right let the perfect be the enemy of the good. If you have some pet grievance against Trump that causes you to shut down and walk away, then you don’t see the big picture—i.e., the alternative big picture where President Kamala ran roughshod over the Constitution and opened up our borders to millions of illegal aliens demanding handouts from your tax dollars.
Does the GOP suck in its current incarnation? YES IT DOES.
But I repeat: THE ALTERNATIVE IS LITERAL COMMUNISTS.
So the way to do the most good is to fight fiercely for incremental change in the party but then support who it nominates.
The Carlson/Massie/MTG style of “I’m taking my ball and going home” causes grievous harm to America and hands it over to its enemies.
There is a difference between (i) fighting for your candidate and ultimately supporting the nominee and (ii) purposely destroying your party so the bad guys can take power.
This is an immutable reality that too many on the Right fail to understand. I get it. You don’t like it. It makes you mad. But it is a reality that you can do nothing to change, so the only solution that will actually advance the goals you seek is to operate within the framework we are stuck with, and try to change it incrementally as best we can.

@Pontifex Why is it "alarming"?
I thought you wanted Christian nations to have no borders or limits on immigration?
I am so with DataRepublican on this.
If you follow me you know I do not tolerate racists and antisemites in my threads on X, regardless of whether or not I share any other ideological beliefs with said person.
The fact that credentialist NeverTrump idiots believe that normal MAGAs are wholly aligned with the tiny handful of racist MAGAs shows only that highly educated people are often bigoted idiots who cannot see outside their own bubble.
If you can identify the involvement of MAGA serving members of our government in "Patriot Front," Data Republican, I will help you expose them as eagerly as I expose Commie DEI racist antisemites in our civil service and the offices of Democrat representatives.
Right is right and wrong is wrong.

RE: Tucker
My theory on Tucker is that for years on the major networks he had producers who protected him against his own worst instincts.
Then when he went out on his own he was able to fully indulge those instincts, wallowing in them, and he's turned into a white male Candace Owens as a result.
The insane laugh should have tipped us off a long time ago, sadly.

Something miraculous is happening in the USA and the world thanks to the World Cup and the USA’s 250th.
I’m not quite sure yet what it is, I have to give it more thought.
I think it has something to do with the world realizing that managed decline is not necessary (with Trump’s America as the example), and I think it has something to do with more Americans not being afraid to be patriots about their nation and their culture.
It’s more than that though—I have to ponder.
Article coming when I figure it out. Any and all ideas welcome.

If you are a Millennial or later, you may be unaware of the near total domination Democrats had over American politics in the 60s, 70s, 80s and early 90s.
Yes, the Dems and the GOP swapped Presidencies pretty routinely, but Congress tended to be overwhelmingly Democrat. When Newt Gingrich and his GOP team won a majority in the House in 1994, it was shocking and felt unbelievable.
Now, in 2026, we are truly coming to understand that for decades Democrat electoral victories were built on:
1. Artificial, racist voting district constructs, ostensibly under the Voting Rights Act.
2. Complete control of votes and voting in most large cities.
3. Taxpayer dollars funneled to Leftist NGOs to promote Democrat policies.
4. A mass media with complete obedience to Democrats.
5. Illegal aliens, both for purposes of census district apportionments and illegal voting.
6. Highly questionable voting practices such as mail-in ballots, lack of voter ID, ballot dropboxes and ballot "harvesting."
7. "Errors" in census data that always pointed one-way.
8. The success of calling anyone who challenged their voting policies "racist."
9. Federal government employees "resisting" GOP policies while showing complete fealty to Democrat policies.
Today, however, these electoral crutches are being kicked out one by one, and Democrats are becoming increasingly insane and violent as a result.
Reality is being laid bare, and we are all coming to understand just how artificial Democrat power actually has been.
In ten years they might be a powerless rump party, which suggests a third party supplanting the Democrats might soon be a reality.
It's shocking, isn't it?
