Are we at last brought to such an humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our own defense? Where is the difference between having our arms under our own possession and under our own direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?
— Patrick Henry

OK, to start with, I haven’t been in a monogamous relationship in a long, long time. Hence, this doesn’t really apply to me. But yeah, no. If she tried to pass the kid off as mine and it wasn’t, she and the bastard byblow are out the fucking door and will be getting no support from me.
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case, those who created this axiom deeply undervalued it. 😆
Americans (The Right) and Democrats and their sharecroppers and hangers-on (The Left) are not the same at a fundamental level. Americans love America and its culture, history, and mores, whereas Democrats worship – or, at least propitiate – at the altars of depravity, insanity, and anti-Americanism.
They support, endorse, and appreciate things like Dylan Mulvaney, which portrays itself as a gross – and to suborn their own rhetoric, misogynist – caricature of a woman. Americans, on the other hand, celebrate the classic American beauty of Sydney Sweeney.
Sadly, that is an apt contrast between men of 1775 and the bois and gurls of 2025. Those of the modern generation are lesser children of a fallen house. Worse, we did this to ourselves, to them, and to our once great nation.
The science of government it is my duty to study, more than all other sciences; the arts of legislation and administration and negotiation ought to take the place of, indeed exclude, in a manner, all other arts. I must study politics and war, that our sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. Our sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history and naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry and porcelain.
John Adams was in many ways a great man. But he was right in what he hoped and thought would happen, but so very wrong in hoping for it. He, over the course of 250 years, got what he wished for. And now, we have to live with that degenerate nightmare.
Exactly! Because far too many people complied with government mandates and internalized the message delivered again, again, and again by their Lamestream Media, Covid-19 has, as I predicted 4 years ago, never really left us and probably won’t for the foreseeable future.
Plaga Ad Eternum – plague forever or the eternal plague – that’s the best way to describe COVID-19 or, at least, the Lamestream Media’s and certain political parties’ current spin on things. For exactly so long as it serves their purses or political aspirations, this disease will be with us, not only in fact but in reporting, browbeating, and carefully crafted countermeasures.
I’m still seeing many people wearing masks in public, and the Lamestream Media is still dutifully fulfilling their investors’ requirements of reporting on their “scary” upticks in Coronavirus infections. This, even though hospitalizations and deaths from COVID are increasingly inconsequential as the virus naturally adapts to better survive in a human host.
At Least There’s An Upside
Well, at least there’s the upside of them giving me an excuse to pull out and post some more Corona QTs. 😆
😆 Babylon Bee got it so right. And, it’s funny in a laugh-out-loud so you don’t do something illegal way.
That’s really how Democrat Mayors, City Councils, and what passes for their Police Chiefs operate. They fight crime statistics, not crime – especially not street-level, violent crime. It’s so much easier for them – and less “racist” – to redefine crime and violence than to actually enforce the law.
