Quick 🧵: I was thinking about how powerful a polemic DOGE is. Liberals are forced to defend every line item because the loss of any single one delegitimizes their systemic power writ large in the eyes of the public and discredits leftism as a method of political power. 1/
Leftism is reliant on institutional capture as an unaccountable bureaucratic force with zero oversight. It's the ultimate tool of elites to crush the will of free peoples. Leftism has a certain mob appeal, but its methods of power and structure rely on public ignorance. 2/
By simply shining a light on this absurdity with DOGE through the neutral lens of spending, the left becomes trapped, perpetually defending the indefensible. It's beautiful to watch, day after day. Hoisted by their own petards, which they cannot help but defend and justify. 3/
The best part is that because of the libs greed and arrogance, there's endless source material here to continue drawing libs into the same trap and they have no choice but to jump headfirst into it to try and save it out of desperation. 4/
The result is predictably perfect as libs defend free iPhones for illegals, or biolabs in China, or "physical activity" among Latinos, or condoms in Africa, or gender studies in Pakistan, or vanishing money for Ukrainian oligarchs. They even threaten to kill those exposing it. 5/ Image
People see this stuff and rightly blanch at the waste and rheyoric, but it also reinforces the disparity in maturity between the two sides due to the humiliating nature of the discoveries. People always implicitly trusted the left out of deference to its power, but now... 6/ Image
...people see what the left has been using its power for and they not only are angry but find it all a bit pathetic to boot: which matters deeply to the public's sense of trust and respect, in deciding who should be in charge or is worthy of their respect. 7/
It's a simplistic stroke of genius - the ultimate weapon of the common man's common sense against the leviathan of leftist power. The show is just getting started: who knows what insane corruption of theirs we will discover tomorrow? 8/END Image
Not only is the left forced to defend this, they LIKE doing so. It's the final revelation of their degeneracy. Normies will see this and be disgusted by the hand waving of journalists and activists. It will complete the radicalization of the normies.

Quick 🧵: This strategy would be a bold, exciting, and kinetic move by the Trump administration to creatively solve the migrant invasion and drug problem simultaneously. Hitting the cartels where they live via Letters of Marque would be a game changing strategy. 1/
The trick would be eliminating the drug supply while also nuking cartel infrastructure. Letters of Marque could be issued not just for kills but for the destruction of tunnels and drugs as well. Prizes should be high enough to incentivize full decapitation of these entities. 2/ Image
If I were Trump, I would issue Letters of Marque that not only allow citizen soldiers the chance to retain the money and non-drug assets of their prey, but also a bonus for drug destruction. Every pill destroyed could yield a flat reward per pill depending on the type. 3/ Image

Thread 🧵: leftists pretend symbols don't matter when they lose, but when they win they're eager to wage their unholy war of symbolic vandalism. They're the ones who changed it to "Denali" in the first place. Now that they've lost, they're suddenly changing their tune. 1/
They're the ones who lowered our national flag to replace it with the pride flag and BLM flag. They're the ones who removed Confederate statues. They're the ones who renamed our military bases. They're the ones who changed architecture to be ugly and soulless. 2/
They're the ones who destroyed literature and film with their filthy ideology. They're the ones who created the destructive oxymoronic concept of "modern art". They're the ones who made our cities ugly and our streets inhospitable, littered with crime, trash, and drugs. 3/ Image

Thread 🧵: When did the standards for the happiness of our own people stoop so low? When did people start expecting less? We were all told this was the norm, and were rightly pissed when we discovered it was all a lie to fuel boomer pensions and satiate their white guilt. 1/
The reality is that inflation and corruption killed this dream, but our elders never acknowledged it. They just told us to "work harder", when we could all see that this was simply untrue. Evil people were getting rewarded and lazy third worlders were getting free stuff. 2/
And by the way: why shouldn't we want our young people to live happy lives? Why shouldn't we want to distribute the fruits of their own birthright to them? So that some foreigner can steal it for some sob story reason? Why should we be basically providing this life for... 3/ Image

Thread 🧵: This actually is a perfect example of how broken the economy is for most people. These aren't jobs people want that inspire them to lead fulfilling lives, nor are these salaries enough to outweigh the damage done to the middle and working classes via inflation. 1/
The classic boomer (and about half of millennials) mentality is "see salary, take job, work hard, get reward". But the reality today is that these salaries, while they seem to be "worth it", aren't enough to outweigh the dissatisfied lifestyles they often lead to. 2/
This debate is really about the broken social contract of Western life. The Regime has done irreparable damage to the social contract, turning us from a high trust high performance society into low trust and low performance. Leftism is a disease that hollows out your society. 3/ Image

Thread 🧵: This story resonates because it's a clear revelation of what the crime of mass migration really represents. Forcibly injecting foreigners into a nation is, essentially, rape against the nation and its people. Literally using rapists to do it is quite revealing. 1/
So often we discuss "migration" in the context of our past understanding of the issue. Western "immigrants" of the past were largely from other European countries with shared faiths, ethos, and genetic backgrounds at least in some regard. Numbers were, also, always manageable. 2/ Image
In addition, "immigrants" would be forced to fully uproot themselves from their homelands. They would literally have to shed their past lives, especially their home nations, and try to become new people. There was no way to stay in touch with or visit their homes easily. 3/

Quick 🧵: In the span of less than one week, during the busy holiday season mind you, we've managed to take control of the "legal migration" debate and expose massive fraud in the system, pushing the overton window further rightward than in the last 50 years of previous work. 1/Image
We've helped unlock the understanding of the issue for not only normies, but elites as well. We've been winning arguments and changing the minds of powerful people, including those who vehemently stood against our position or those who weren't even aware the issue existed. 2/
This was done almost entirely by individuals on X and achieved entirely outside the media ecosystem, with tv and news orgs desperately playing catch up. Most importantly, leftists didn't get to participate in the debate (they didn't even know it was happening) as it should be. 3/ Image
