#Thread @PatrickBuchanan on @IngrahamAngle's show discussing the Fate of America:

"What's happening here quite simply is, even under the Trump Era, that the borders of the United States are basically collapsing...after awhile we cease to be the America we grew up in" 1/
.@IngrahamAngle on Border Crisis: "They say the border is at the breaking point well sometimes I wake up and I feel like I'm at the breaking point because here we elected Donald Trump, it was about building the Wall, enforcing the border, deporting all the violent criminals" 2/
.@IngrahamAngle: "The sovereignty our founding fathers understood was critical for the survival of the Republic was rooted in the idea of keeping us free, which I think we forget about. To be a truly free people a foreign power, in this case many countries, can't control us." 3/

யார் பெரியார்? #Thread
--
சமீபத்திய பொள்ளாச்சி விவகாரத்தில் கூட பெண்களின் ஒழுக்கம் பற்றி கேள்வியெழுப்பிய சனாதன மதவாத ஆண்களை செருப்பால் அடித்தவர்தான் பெரியார்.
நவீனத்தின் வளர்ச்சியடைந்திருந்தாலும் சுயசாதி உணர்வு பேசி வலம் வரும் ஆப்பாயில் இளைஞர்களை செருப்பால் அடித்து சமத்துவம் போதிக்கும் கருத்தியலின் தந்தைதான் பெரியார்.
தமிழ், தமிழன் என்று பேசும் மேடைப் பொய்யர்களின் தம்பிகளுக்கும் சேர்த்து தமிழை எளிமையாக்கி மூலை முடுக்கெல்லாம் பரவச் செய்தவர் பெரியார்.
