These kids were asked what their daddies do for a living, and their answers were absolutely hilarious and completely unexpected! 🤣🤣
Kids can be so funny, and their innocence is so sweet. 😂❤️ I once had a preschooler tell me his dad worked at the Disney Store. Turns out, his dad was actually a prosecuting attorney! 😭😂

James again.. wow, thank you, genuinely, for the extraordinary number of lovely messages about Dad. I’ve only scratched the surface so far, but I will read them all I promise. Incredibly moving and wonderful seeing how many people here knew, respected, laughed and argued with him. Still working out this platform. I can’t reliably wade through what Dad posted, which considering he apparently managed 132,900 bloody posts, is mildly humiliating! So, forgive me if he’s shared this before. The timing of sharing it now feels incredibly poignant, but the film itself isn’t miserable. Quite the opposite. A short film that began as a conversation about Ichi-Coo Park and somehow became a film about Dad himself; His beginnings, influences, horticulture, success, failure, his extraordinary life and ultimately the way he faced its ending. It’s funny, eccentric, honest and ultimately very positive. Shades of Green 🌿 youtu.be/cVORBIoegiI?si=Sj65… James ❤️

Encore des nouvelles plutôt rassurantes de l'hôtel de Ville de Limoges. Je viens de parler avec Muriel Laskar, adjointe au patrimoine (oui, à Limoges, contrairement à Paris, ils ont un adjoint au patrimoine...) : le salon bleu et son plafond n'ont pas brûlé (1/3)

More details have emerged about the 🇺🇦 soldier rescued by a drone, and it’s truly astonishing. Don’t ever expect surrender from these people or this country.
❤️‍🩹 “These people, they are angels.” After holding his position alone against heavy odds, Ukrainian soldier Kostiantyn was saved by a drone in a historic first-of-its-kind evacuation.

Hilarious 😂 Woke libs forgot to ask the indigenous tribe how they felt 🏈
Descendants of the chief who inspired the "Washington Redskins" logo accuse the football team of trying to erase them, call for a meeting with President Trump to get the name restored. The family of Chief Two Guns White Calf says they were never asked about the name change. "They tried to erase us, like we didn't exist anymore," said estate lead Kenneth Conway. The descendants say the Redskins logo brought their family pride, and they want the chief to be remembered. "They did not even ask our family for approval. They didn't ask for nothing from us. I mean, we literally got erased," said Brock Conway, as reported by WTVR. "We're hopeful for a meeting with President Trump in order to help get this pushed forward," said Morningstar Gopher. "There's a lot of diehard Redskins fans down in Washington, D.C. This would be a win-win, I think, for everybody. It would be a win-win for the family because it would be so honored and the history of their ancestor." The name was removed in 2020 because liberals thought it was a slur. The Washington Commanders are building a new stadium, which is set to open in 2030. Bring back the Redskins. It's time.

🚨🚨THE DEMOCRACY FILES, PART 3: AMERICA GETS THE FOREIGN-INTERVENTION TREATMENT 🚨 At what point does this become foreign interference of our elections? To back up: the main group that Danielle Reiff and the other ex-USAID workers belongs to, Renew To Thrive (R2T) / Renew American Democracy (RAD) have an explicit strategy document. That strategy outlines "preparing for the worst" which includes the Insurrection Act or "election meltdown," and their goal is to get "structural reform" in place by that - a polite way of saying our Constitutional Republic has to be overhauled. In July 2026, R2T/RAD invited foreign state actors to share experience with the American community, for the express purpose of operationalizing their expertise right here in the United States. All actors had experience in international community assisted transitions (I'll let you figure out what that is a code word for). The disturbing part, though, is that all of the foreign actors' recommendations were implemented right here in America. You may have seen news headlines like: - Restore trust in processes - Increased election security, increased legal presence at polls - Democratic officials hold tabletop exercises - Judges prepare for post-election challenges To be clear, this video doesn't prove that this meeting specifically caused this cascade of escalations. But what it shows is that the democracy-promotion playbook the U.S. spent decades exporting, with situation rooms, observers at every polling place, prebunking and litigation paired with street mobilization, is now being run on America's own election. The same people are running it, and they're taking advice from the foreign actors the U.S. once backed. Now when you look at officials talking about independent watchdogs or tabletop exercises... know that it's because they are now treating the United States midterms exactly the same as they'd treat elections in a third world country. And I think more than a small part of them are hoping that it does become a self-fulfilling prophecy as it has in so many of those countries. (For context, my book Unelected documents that so-called "election meltdowns" are precursors to transitions of power via color revolution.)

I've been cranking all day on this. Some things are so important that they need to be explored in depth, and in real time. The shocking revelations from Data Republican regarding the plot to overthrow our Constitution is such a thing and now is such a time. We are facing a color revolution. This article explains how color revolutions have worked overseas in the past at the hands of the CIA and USAID, and how those now ex-USAID employees, now ensconced in well-funded NGOs, are currently using the same tactics against our own nation. It's a long article, almost 2,500 words. If you care about this, please read. It's a very complex set of concepts, and takes more than a few words to explain adequately. Thanks.
