British Prime Minister Margret Thatcher famously once said, “Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy.” Nearly all European nations trace their beginning to a common ethnic kinship or a cultural characteristic, but America was created by exiles united in

I am in no way a fan of Elise Stefanik. The opposite, actually. But this strikes me as an attention-grabbing thread designed to highlight that you have a connection with someone prominently in the news right now. No insight, no new facts. Just “gut” feelings mixed in with tropes.

I appreciate that Trump is not assessing Ukraine or Zelenskyy based on the objective worth or faults of the cause itself. Instead, he judges it based on how Zelenskyy treated him. Trump does a great job of keeping focused on the only thing that matters—himself.

If Hungary were a U.S. state, it would boast the lowest church attendance and the highest percentage of atheist, agnostic, or unaffiliated individuals. The same holds true for Russia.
Only 15% of Hungarians report weekly church attendance, compared to Vermont, the U.S. state
Tucker: "They hate Hungary because it's a Christian country. Nobody wants to say it, but it's true. That is enough to incite our policymakers in the United States and that is exactly why they hate Russia, by the way."

Abraham Lincoln was born in a 16x18 foot cabin with 1 door, a window, a fireplace, and dirt floor. At the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Park a “symbolic” log cabin sits encased in a grand neo-Classical temple, though it differs substantially from the original home.

These comments were made before an “evangelical” audience at a “Faith & Freedom” event.
Trump's audience is stunned as he says this, alluding to McCain: "We needed 60 votes & we had 51, & sometimes we had a hard time with a couple. Fortunately they're gone now. They've gone on to greener pastures. Or perhaps far less green, but they're gone. Very happy they're gone”
