As a child of Apollo and the days when the original Star Trek was shown on prime-time, I have been waiting for the aliens my entire life (actually, I'm still waiting on flying cars and jetpacks, but I digress). I realize the universe is a big place and the odds that we are alone in it are slim, but I don't think these radio radio waves are reruns of Amos and Andy from Vulcan. First, a civilization advanced enough to defeat the problems associated with faster than light travel is probably pretty well past the radio age. So, they were sent 1,000,000,000 years ago and are just now getting to us. The problem with that is, radio transmissions of such a low magnitude would be stretched pretty this by the time they traveled 1,000 light years. It's doubtful we would even notice them. These big blasts come from stars with the juice to produce huge bursts, not the kind Sirius XM transmits.
As for these flying saucers, why is it they spend so much time over corn fields in Iowa? Look, I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but the complexities of traveling vast distances in space are such that even a super-duper smart bunch of folks would have trouble over coming them. I believe the grand designer set it up that way. Sorry gang, but don't look for ET to be phoning any time soon. I say this as someone who used to be pumped up about SETI and what they are doing. But once I learned the truth as far as the mechanics of the the thing is concerned, well, as John Adams said: "Facts are stubborn things."

We are getting some great rulings during this session, the likes of which I never thought I'd live to see. Thank you President Trump for winning and appointing justices who, while I haven't agreed with every decision, have done a helluva lot better than previous republican appointees who have usually disappointed (yes CJ Roberts, I'm looking at you). And thank you Hillary for, well, being Hillary. Trump most likely would have lost to anyone else. Props to you Gollum!
I like this decision but I wish it would have rebuked the Chevron Deference (Doctrine) in stronger terms. The administrative/regulatory state is the biggest threat to individual liberty and the strongest governor keeping our economy in check. We could get out of most of our messes in a year if the unelected fourth branch of government went away. I did some contract work developing training for the DOT a while back. The mountains of regulations I had to plow through to make sense out of what it was federal and state inspectors and crash investigators needed to learn was unlike anything I had ever seen, and this is coming from someone who served more than 20 years in the military, the single most regimented outfit this side of Cuba.
The Chevron Doctrine was one of those areas Scalia was weak on. With these justices, especially Gorsuch, maybe we have a chance of ridding ourselves of the blank check the Court gave these agencies once and for all. Maybe, and I'm just spitballing here, just maybe, Congress could actually be forced do their jobs. 🤔 Nah, but a man can dream can't he?

Prior to WWI there were a few dust-ups but no major conflict in Europe since the Napoleonic Wars ended in 1812. By the time WWI came along the leaders of the belligerent nations were old and had no memory of the days of Napoleon. Fast forward to us. Our leaders are old and were not around during WWII. Most of them dodged the Vietnam War by hiding out in college or were too young to be drafted. We haven't been involved in a real existential level war since 1945 and these corrupt crime families run by codgers like mcconnell and biden are motivated by a desire to protect their money laundering partners. The baby boomers will go down as the worst generation ever produced by this nation. I say this as one of them.
I spent most of my adult life standing a post defending this nation. Now, if I had children of military age, I wouldn't let them serve even if it meant going to jail. This country is being destroyed for a specific reason, to serve the interests of the western global oligarchy and to make way for what they are calling the great reset, a plan for tyranny on a level not seen since the days of the Roman Empire. We haven't even gotten to the birth pains of the end-times yet. The 2030s will be a dark period, one where wars and rumors of wars will be so common people will just treat it as another day ending in Y. But this is what we wanted. Like the Israelites of antiquity, we told God we didn't need Him anymore. We wanted our own king. Israel got Saul, what will we get:
“After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones… He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time. But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever.” ― Daniel: Ch. 7
Stay faithful, stay strong. Trust in God and look to Him for your salvation.

Tucker, I like ya but you have a bit of a habit of telling your version of history in a demonstrative manner, even if your version is a tad off the mark. You make it sound like Russia is Tennessee. White Christian strong traditionalists? Close to a century of socialist rule put a pretty big dent in that one. I have met people who grew up in the USSR and they are decent enough folks but Christianity isn't really their thing. The Orthodox Church has a following here, but it's mostly second and third generation expatriates whose family's fled Stalin's terror. The folks who stayed? Most of them remained atheists' or agnostics at best, even after the Wall came down.
As for Nixon's visit to China, he didn't make that trip to make sure China and the Soviet Union wouldn't team up. He did it to exploit the split that existed between them in order to end the Vietnam War on the best terms he could get and to open China's market to the U.S., a dream this country has been chasing since its inception. See Admiral Perry and the annexation of Hawaii for proof of the historical facts on that one.
Like I say, I like ya Tucker, but you tell a version of history that ain't always precise. Maybe it's a trick you picked up at CNN or maybe you just have crappy researchers. Or maybe you know it's BS, like your JFK conspiracy crackpot stuff, a narrative that fits the iconoclastic persona you adopted when Fox slid you into that 8 PM slot and you replaced your moderate bowtie for a necktie. I like the edge, but I'm calling BS on that take. I'm not a fan of the war in Ukraine but I'm a bigger fan of the truth. As my man John Adams said: "Facts are stubborn things."

I'm old enough to remember your father. My dad thought your uncle was a rich man's kid, a playboy with no depth, but he had a grudging respect for your dad because he believed in the causes he was fighting for. I'll give you credit, you seem to share that with your father, but sorry Mr. Kennedy, this isn't the party of JFK and Harry Truman anymore. It's not even the party of Bill Clinton. This is obama's party and we'll cry if we want to. The fact you had to turn to Fox for airtime kind of sums it up.
I give ya props for running, and I hope you make at least a few people examine why they still support that Godforsaken party that has literally, not figuratively, forsaken God and all that is good, decent, and holy. The republicans aren't really much better, but there is a dark force that has grabbed hold of the reigns of your political party and it will not relinquish it. I wish you luck sir, but I'm afraid your on a it of a Quixotic quest going up against the powers that be on that side of the aisle. Maybe President DeSantis will put you in charge of a criminal inquiry into fauci and that bunch. Wouldn't that be something.

I grew up in Michigan, most of my friends and family still live in Michigan, I still consider it my home in a lot of ways, I guess I always will. But I will never even consider moving back to that state. Whitmer has turned the place into a police state and everyone hates it. I have been back a couple times during the COVID BS and I have never felt more anger in the air in my life. I have travelled the world as a member of the military, spent time in places where people openly despised us, yet I felt an even more negative vibe during my last visit to the Metro-Detroit area. Everybody is on edge, people flip you off and worse on the roads (taking pot-shots at strangers has replaced run-of-the-mill road rage), and have a nice day is met with a skeptical stare (like who the hell are you to wish me any kind of day).
I am convinced that evil tyrant's draconian policies warped the state to such a degree it may never recover yet they are going to re-elect her. Part of that is because she is really, really, REALLY, good at cheating, and part of it is Michigan is essentially a one-party state. They have a GOP, but they would qualify as a lefty party here in Florida. And they put the "P" in...well, let's just say that they would give any spineless batch of republican's anywhere a run for their money when it comes to wimpism. That AG is nothing more than Stretchin Gretchen's little attack dog.
What has happened to that wonderful state saddens me beyond despair. I'm not the only one who has expressed these feelings. Other Michigan escapees have expressed the same sentiment. As one put it it, it's like she shot everyone's dog. Wanna see what happens when you are a union state with one industry and one party? Look no further than the former Water, Winter, Wonderland. RIP Michigan, it was fun while it lasted. Give my regards to the Great Lakes, Vernor's, Better Made, and a thousand other memories I have to sustain me as I grow older. Your likes will never come this way again.

Why are they targeting children? To carry out the will of their father, the father of all lies.
"Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me!” John 8:43-45
“If anyone causes one of these little ones, those who believe in Me, to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to sin! Such things must come, but woe to the one through whom they come!” ― Matthew 18:6-7
He may lie to them, but lets not lie to each other about the nature of what we are up against. Don't be afraid to call it what it is.

I haven't seen this video but Dan is right when he says there are cops out there who have bad intentions and probably shouldn't be wearing the badge, just like not everyone who wears a military uniform is a hero. These outfits draw from the general public and in case you haven't noticed, the general public isn't populated by a bunch of saints.
When I was a kid, there were anti-gang units that used to cruise our neighborhood. They were known as the big four because they drove in black cars and always traveled in a group of four. They were notorious for coming up on any group of young people, 20 and under, and getting rough with them. They came up on me and a group of my friends one night when we were just walking into a party store. They throttled one of the guys who was with us pretty bad. His father wanted to press charges and when I went down to the precinct to give my statement the cops interviewing me treated me like I was a criminal. They cursed at me, called me a liar, and reminded me that they knew where I lived. They did that in the precinct, so you can imagine what they were like on the street. I held my ground and stuck to my story but the complaint didn't go anywhere, and neither did the big four.
I say all that because I do have sympathy for people who have run-ins with bad cops. But as Dan said, calling for their disbandment isn't a solution. Maybe if the same politicians who call for that kind of reaction supported policed a bit more strongly they wouldn't end up recruiting guys who just want to get off on wearing a gun and having a bit of power. Think incidents like Ferguson haven't caused good people to think twice about signing up for the job? It's only going to worse I'm afraid and the people who will suffer the most will be the people most in need of protection. Those cops in black cars in my neighborhood may have been a-holes, but there was a reason that squad was created, and it wasn't because there wasn't a gang problem in my city. I just hope justice is served as best it can be in this case. Condolences to any innocent people hurt by the actions of this particular crew.

Here's what's most likely to happen. Russia annexes Ukraine by force and we impose some economic sanctions that will amount to squat since our European allies will do what they always do and pick up the slack, buying and selling stuff we don't to them. This dilemma has existed since the dawn of the nuclear age. When we are up against a third-rate power the doctrine of flexible response works. When it comes to the big leagues, war becomes a zero-sum game. Until now, most Russian leaders have picked their spots carefully. With uncle Joe in the office they are emboldened. Ask yourself this, if you were on the other side of the power equation, would Biden or Harris put any fear into you? Seriously, how would either of those hacks handle an invasion if it happened right now? The scary part, as senile as he is, Biden still has more sense than his affirmative action hire sitting in the VP chair. No, we are going to Hell on the installment plan here. Russia and China both know it so they are content to wait. But every now and then, they'll push the envelope. Ukraine has a history of being part of the old Soviet/Imperial Russian system Putin loves so much. They'll be home soon and as for us, well don't look for much beyond a few sanctions and a sternly worded letter on this end.

These cultists are absurd Tucker, low hanging fruit. They lack self-awareness but they are told what they need to be aware of in everybody else. It is Mao's Cultural Revolution 2.0, American Style. But in all honesty, where does Fox News really fall in all of this? You lambast McCarthy yet your network gives him air time pretty much any time he wants it. Doesn't Karl Rove still haunt your hallways. The one Hannity gushes about, calling him "The Architect?" And good old Lindsey Graham, let's not forget that stalwart of conservatism. He practically has his own office at your studio.
There are a lot of strong conservative voices who never get invited onto your panel and talk-shows. Why is that? Censorship by omission? Could it be they aren't toeing the proper party line? Or is it because the conservative movement, what's left of it anyway, is now and always has been homeless? Is that what you mean by getting their act together? Finding a home? Are you talking about the thought leaders who are busy selling merch and owning the libs while referring to mentally disturbed men like Bruce Jenner as Katlyn? 🤔 Oh wait, that's Fox again. Hell, I hear he's in line to get his own show over there. Bravo!
I like ya Tucker, I really do. But when you talk about self-awareness tell the whole story. A lot of people need to get their act together to fight this battle, and it's going to take a whole lot more than tweets and soundbites to defeat this foe, because he knows his time is short and he's not taking prisoners, he's taking souls.

All American news outlets have a bias and all of them, including Fox, are in bed with one political party or another. Reporters like Murrow and Cronkite had an easier time hiding their biases because of the role they played covering WWII. It also helped that the democratic party had a stranglehold on the American political system during the period mass-media exploded onto the scene. That was the lens through which the message was delivered it just became the norm. Media bias wasn't even an issue until politicians like Nixon started calling reporters out for their democratic favoritism. But for the most part the networks still covered national and world events in a straight up fashion. This allowed them to deflect the criticism of their political coverage by dismissing those who accused them of bias as sore losers and fringe paranoid types.
Things really changed after Vietnam and Watergate. Reporters were no longer covering stories, they became part of them. It was, in many ways, a return to the days of Yellow Journalism. Then 24/7 cable came around and suddenly you had all kinds of air time to fill. TV journalists went from being reporters to being celebrities and they were all coming out of left-wing universities where they were encouraged to be activists first and reporters second. Now, it is more about who you know when it comes to landing these TV jobs. Look at how many news anchors and show hosts are second and third generation media types. Look at how many come from families with deep political roots.
The internet has made them lazy to boot. That worm obama had running point on his nuclear treaty with Iran came right out and admitted that he took advantage of young reporters who lacked the skills and intellectual curiosity to properly fact check him. CBS, NBC, and ABC are now the propaganda arm for the democratic party. CNN may have started with the intention of being a straight news outlet but they figured out they would do better if they got on on team or the other. MSNBC was always intended to assume the role of DNC mouthpiece. Papers like the NY Times are so far gone they are never coming back. They count on the money they get pimping the left-wing narrative.
I get a kick out of the fact they all freak out because the republicans have one network that leans their way. But even Fox has gone mainstream to the point where they have given up their claim as the network for conservatives. They have run fluff pieces promoting transgender mutilation of children using that bush hack dana perino to put some kind of sweetness and light spin on that evil practice. How much air time does Fox give actual conservative commentators like Steve Deace, Delano Squires, or Daniel Horowitz? How many invites to CPAC do those guys get? There are a few brave independent reporters like Andy Ngo out there but how much air time does he get anywhere?
Wanna know what happened to America Will? Colonel Jessup told us: We couldn't handle truth.
