Bought out by Golden Corral?

Trump is such a dangerous king, people are protesting in the streets and not being rounded up by the government.
The horror.

One of the great 2A pictures of all time, with Rep Keshel showing how it’s done.

You know who else got accused by his political enemies of wanting to be a king?
GEORGE WASHINGTON
Keep congratulating yourselves on your astroturf rallies in Boston, NYC. We will keep crushing you.

From me to you, with a dose of animosity toward America’s idiots:

I’ve posted the above letter from my father many times over the past four years. That’s because it’s meant more to me than any other letter I’ve ever received. My hope is that someone reading it needed to read what it says, especially if you’re like me and wish your dad was still with us.

Some dads figure it out later in life. My dad was one. All kids need a father AND a dad or they will forever struggle to piece together healthy identity and belonging.

A society that wants to keep dads from impacting children deserves to be swept into the dustbin of history.

Huge wins for election integrity at today's Georgia State Election Board meeting! 🎉 The vote to send a proposal ending no-excuse absentee ballots to the Legislature PASSED! Additionally, the proposed rule defining “impossible” and “impracticable” for using voting equipment under O.C.G.A. § 21-2-281 also PASSED—this ensures consistent application of Georgia law, requiring counties to switch to hand-marked paper ballots when equipment can't be used effectively due to issues like secrecy, accessibility, or failure. Massive thanks to Dr. Janice Johnston, Janelle King, and Rick Jeffares for leading the charge. Additional thank you to Salleigh Grubbs, 1st VC GA GOP, for the bi-partisan efforts in getting this rule passed! Let's keep fighting for secure, transparent elections! 🇺🇸

I am so sick of fear based politics I can’t even quantify the level of disgust.

“If the Democrats EVER take power again they’re going to come after us.”

Ever? Like ever ever? You mean like how both parties have traded off power since the middle of the 19th century?

On one side of the mouth, all the big talk about the Second Amendment and how patriots won’t ever bend the knee, and out the other side of the mouth, whining about how the other side will be tyrannical if given power.

The country was founded with all the means to resist tyranny. While liberty is preferable there is nothing like tyranny to inspire something bigger than winning an election every two or four years.

Fear fear fear fear fear fear fear.

The fear of MAN.

I swear, it’s all some people do.

This position is antithetical to professed faith. The fear of man is ungodly, and so is the belief that there is no divine power available to redeem nations and the state of mankind.

There is also no point in holding political power if the only thing done during those times is to fret about what will happen when the other side is in power. The palpable fear and dread clings to those who are thinking about being on our side and screams “loser mindset.”

We are a soft people because our country has been unmatched and overly affluent for too long.

CORRECTING THE RECORD: The Guardian

So, The Guardian wants us to believe the headline: “Georgia election board member accepted anonymous donations linked to ‘election-integrity’ movement.” The Guardian

Let’s unpack how flawed this HIT piece is — and why Dr. Jan is exactly the type of person who deserves our support, not their sneers.

1. The “anonymous donations” scare-tactic. They highlight that Dr. Jan has a crowdfunding campaign (via GiveSendGo) with one donation of $10,000 and others, and they use words like “anonymous,” “potential conflict,” “influence.” The Guardian

– But they omit the critical context: Dr. Jan is being hauled into court by a left-wing “watchdog” group (American Oversight) for performing her duty. The attorneys, the discovery, the private-email claim — the cost is real. The Guardian

So every mention of “anonymous donations” is implicitly meant to conjure corruption, influence-peddling, quid-pro-quo. But the article fails to ask: why are we not talking about who is not defending Dr. Jan? Why is the state’s own machinery AWOL? It’s hypocritical: when left-leaning activists raise funds, the media cheers. When someone like Dr. Jan does the same to defend themselves, oh no, it’s “influence” and “conflict.”

2. The real issue: being attacked for doing the job. Dr. Jan is a volunteer at the state election board. The article points out that even the Chris Carr (Georgia Attorney General) office “has not stepped in to defend against the American Oversight lawsuit.” The Guardian

– Translation: The very state apparatus that is supposed to defend election-officials is sitting on its hands.
– The headline writers focus on her fundraising, while ignoring the suit being brought by a radical left-wing outfit — why the hell is that not front-page?
– And why is the widely-known “election defense fund for election officials” (Brad Raffensperger Election Defense Fund) not stepping in? That’s exactly what it was created for: to defend people like Dr. Jan who serve the public and suddenly get sued for decisions they make in their official capacity.

3. The tone-policing and double standard. The Guardian throws phrases like “left-wing morons” (okay, I’m paraphrasing, but that’s the energy) — no, scratch that: they accuse Dr. Jan of creating potential conflicts and undermining “public trust.” The Guardian

– But they don’t hold the suing organization to the same “public trust” standard. They don’t ask: Is American Oversight using open-records laws as a political cudgel rather than a tool for transparency?
– They don’t note the irony that a volunteer election board member is being sued personally, and yet our public institutions say: “Sorry, you’re on your own.”
– Then they criticize her for fundraising and gift acceptance—even though the reasoning given is: “I’m a volunteer, I was told I would be defended, I wasn’t, so I’m raising funds for my legal defense.” The Guardian

4. The missing perspective: we need to raise money now. Here’s what the article should be screaming: “Election-officials are under assault. Their legal costs are skyrocketing. The institutions meant to protect them are asleep. The public must step up.”
Instead, we read a hit-piece about “anonymous donations” without the full picture. That omission matters.

So let’s be clear: Dr. Jan is in a lawsuit because she is doing her job— and the very people vilifying her are the same ones funding the attack. Their narrative is: “You serve our side or we’ll bury you.”

That’s not transparency. That’s intimidation. That’s what you get when the media and “watchdog” groups are not watchdogs—they’re activists.

So yes — crank up the fundraiser. Make the message clear:

“She’s being sued by the very idiots writing this article and the left-wing morons backing them. And no one who should be helping is stepping up. Not the attorney general’s office. Not Brad Raffensperger’s fund. But we are. Because we know what’s at stake.” ~ Holly Kesler
