2/x I’ve never said this before: I agree with @KingJames

“We’re talking about people’s bodies and well-being. I don’t think I personally should get involved in what other people should do for their bodies and livelihoods.”
3/x @KingJames is being courageous here.

With his box-office power, he could be even more courageous—he could SOLVE the problem—by saying:

“I stand w/ my fellow players. And I won’t play in any arena that bans another NBA player because they make a personal healthcare choice.”

1/x Joe Biden's botched Afghanistan withdrawal has been vetting failure & a horrifying catastrophe.
2/x He has imported an acute HUMANITARIAN CRISIS into the U.S.

Young girls are being subject to forced child marriages and sexual abuse by "husbands" using the withdrawal to exploit them.

3/x It is also a SECURITY CRISIS by Joe Biden: 10,000 Afghans needed more security screening after and 100 people flagged for terrorism/ Taliban ties.

Democrats are engaged in a $9.5 TRILLION spending spree. This week, they’re spending nearly $5 TRILLION.

$1,200,000,000,000 “infrastructure” bill
$3,500,000,000,000 Bernie budget resolution

Our country is facing an inflation bomb, due in part to the Democrats’ money printing.
Accounting for inflation, the US spent $4.1 trillion to win World War II.

Today, Bernie Sanders and Democrats want to spend $3.5 TRILLION on liberal priorities.

Here’s some of the irresponsible and reckless spending Democrats want.
Buried in the Bernie budget resolution: amnesty for illegal aliens.

There already is a border crisis.

But Democrats giving amnesty to illegal aliens will only encourage more illegal immigration and make the crisis worse.

.@steve_vladeck At the end of the day, the courts might agree with you, but here’s a credible argument by serious thinkers that Big Tech—by directly implementing govt policy, at the express behest of govt decision-makers—have become de facto state actors:

2/x @steve_vladeck you can do better than that. You’re a respected law prof. But so’s Rubenfeld.

You might be right that Norwood (1973) and Hanson (1956) and Skinner (1989) and Bantam Books (1963) may be found not to apply—but you can’t credibly pretend they don’t exist.
3/x When a monopoly becomes the enforcement arm of govt censorship, it is very much state action.

This is a point I’ve made publicly before:

Hateful, divisive lies.

The Left hates America. Believe them when they tell you this.

Two years ago, Colin Kaepernick tried to spread the same lies on July 4. I responded with the wisdom of the great abolitionist Frederick Douglass:

louderwithcrowder.com/ted-cruz-colin…
2/x Frederick Douglass loved America. He rightly denounced the grotesque evil of slavery, which in 1852 was tragically still legal. But, thanks to the heroic leadership of Douglass & other abolitionists—and a bloody Civil War—we ended that abomination.
3/x Douglass closed, “I, therefore, leave off where I began, with hope. While drawing encouragement from ‘the Declaration of Independence,’ the great principles it contains, and the genius of American Institutions, my spirit is also cheered by the obvious tendencies of the age.”

On this Fourth of July, we reflect on the incredible spirit of American patriots. Whether it’s standing up to Red Coats or Nazis—or even space aliens 👽 👽 —Americans never surrender, never stop fighting for freedom.

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸
Another classic: Patton’s 3rd Army address. If you haven’t watched George C. Scott’s rendition, WATCH.

I used to watch this video every time the night before I had a Supreme Court argument.

Happy Fourth!! 🇺🇸

Both Patton’s speech & Pullman’s are modeled after Shakespeare’s St. Crispin’s Day speech.

Biden releases 5-point anti-crime plan:

1) take everyone’s guns;

2) abolish the police;

3) release violent criminals from jail;

4) give violent felons stimulus $$ and make them legal voters; and

…(5) hide!
For all the liberal commentators who are screaming “lies, lies, lies!” well, facts matter. You’re entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts. And these (somewhat joking) positions reflect ACTUAL POLICY POSITIONS taken by the Biden Admin.
1) Last year, Anderson Cooper said, “So, to gun owners out there who say, 'Well, a Biden administration means they’re going to come for my guns.’” Biden replied, Bingo."
