Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

You don't need more time, you need fewer distractions.

You don't need motivation, you need self-control.

You don't need more resources, you need resourcefulness.

You don't need luck, you need preparation.

You don't need to be busy, you need to be focused.

You don't need to know everything, you just need to start.

You have everything you need.

Agree?

Educate yourself.

When a question about a certain topic pops up, google it. Watch movies and documentaries. When something sparks your interest, read about it.

Read, read, read.

Study, learn, and stimulate your brain.

Don't just rely on the school system; educate your beautiful mind.

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

The Loneliness No One Talks About

No one warns you about the loneliness that comes with growing.

The silence when old friendships stop fitting, but new ones haven’t formed.

The ache of outgrowing places, conversations, even versions of yourself.

Growth is beautiful, but it can also be isolating.

Keep growing anyway. You’ll find your kindred spirits.

So are we still more upset about Diverse, but qualified, yet presumed unqualified hires, than DUI hires?

Pete Hegseth needs to go for the safety of the United States & the allies that we still have.

Happy Easter to all who are celebrating today.

This season of renewal invites us all to believe in the triumph of light over darkness, life over death, love over hate.

The Biden family celebrated Easter in Delaware today! No hate, no attacks, no insults. Just a good family spending time together. The Trumps could never.

Trump tariffed every country, even penguins, but not Russia.

He said it’s because he’s negotiating the wars end. But he DID tariff Ukraine.

Hmmm

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Excellent post, JK! Seems like we are witnessing the DC equivalent of the pulling back of the curtain in the Wizard of Oz, revealing the sputtering and incompetent boobs behind the DC curtain. Unfortunately for those DC miscreants, the entire world is watching as their corruption and grift is exposed and the normal people of the US are disgusted 🤮. Elon Musk is the perfect person to orchestrate the defenestration of the DC mob - he has no dog in the hunt as he’s rich beyond comprehension and s…
