Teaching my kids early the truth that Communist tanks were overrated trash at the #AmericansInWartimeExperience ImageImage
Kids enjoying using the VASTLY superior American and Polish equipment. ImageImage
My son is over a year old. My daughter's older.

They're both quite familiar with and not at all disturbed by the sound of heavy gunfire and flamethrowers.
Best tank of the war!
And to think... @CrankyFed passed on this to do USO show stuff. ;)

Reminder that VIRTUALLY NONE of the massive USAID budget went towards...actually helping other countries.

Whereas almost 57% went to The Beltway.

These people were always left-wing activist hiding behind the alleged charity. Image
My undergrad was a USAID feeder school.

One former friend on that career track (she unfriended me long ago, but still is leeching off the taxpayer) once told me "Its a scam, but it pays my rent."

Hit dogs holler!
Yes, this graph is real.

Its not my graph.

Heres the source.

America is not built on "stolen land." We BOUGHT it.

We bought everything in white from France for around $310 million, everything in pink from Mexico for $482 million in a forced purchase, orange for $240 million, and Florida for $5 million.

Yellow was deal with UK! Image
Light blue came from the Republic of Texas, which fought a war to secede from Mexico.

This was after Mexico fought a war to secede from France/Spain. Mexico has ZERO claim to any of this.

They literally sold that claim to us!
As for the "well, the Europeans couldn't sell it to us bc they stole if from the American Indians."

BS

Every native tribe also took the land by force from another...which took it by force from another...and so on and so forth.

John Oliver is back ranting about Trump...doing exactly what he promised...on @LastWeekTonight so its time for another #OliverDebunked here

youtube.com/live/cw0F8G4-d…
Oliver begins at 0:26 complaining about Trump withdrawing from the Paris Agreement and WHO.

Never mentions WHY Trump is doing those things

The Paris Agreement is a treaty...Biden wanted to join it and didn't get consent of two-thirds of Senate. Trump left it Image
As for why the WHO is not our friend...I said so at the time during the pandemic.

This is the most obvious attempt to bait @elonmusk I've seen in a while, but since I'm always here for #OliverDebunked I'll look into it.

As usual, Oliver is almost hilariously dishonest.
First off, I'd just like to say that I've been doing this for...a while...with Oliver.





I started after realizing that whenever Oliver covers a topic I know anything about he's mindbendingly dishonest. Not dumb, lying.
At the 5 min mark in this, Oliver wines that Musk (correctly) said "I've done more for envrio than any single human on early" which Oliver calls "Messianic."

I'd call that...accurate.

And I say that as a person with a track record of Elon skepticism! I was wrong! Image

The following are true stories:

I was once told by an NSF grant guy that the ENTIRE Western United States from CA Texas should be a "national science park" and people living there relocated to "more ecologically friendly" cities.

He didn't understand my problem with that.
A senior professor (who I know darn well will read this) once blew up at me for questioning the importance of "diversity in geochronology."

I later learned he...the whitest dude in America...was having research funded by a diversity grant by having a poor RA act as a front.
Another senior professor once showed my class pics of fracking site where trees had been cut down 2 ominously predict "u can't think there won't be ecological consequences."

When I, being me, asked him 2 Google "lithium mine" looked like, he panicky responded "that's different."

This is why calling for GOP protests in major cities is such a dumb move.

Wokes largely OWN those places and will use any excuse to wreck even the most peaceful protest, then tie up our activists in court for years using taxpayer cash.

Is this unfair? YES! But that's reality.
Stop mimicking what you think the left would do.

We're not left and they can do different things...they've spent decades building up protest infrastructure and we haven't. That isn't getting fixed by Tuesday.

Instead of LARPing like ur a leftie, do something more productive.
What every single person reading this CAN do that'd be productive is research and telling others just how awful these left wing DAs are.

Bragg, who is allegedly about to indict Trump, is infamous for making it policy to let lifelong criminals walk.
