Friends- This is a tough note to write, but since a bunch of you have started to suspect something, I’ll cut to the chase: Last week I was diagnosed with metastasized, stage-four pancreatic cancer, and am gonna die. Advanced pancreatic is nasty stuff; it’s a death sentence.

"Gatekeeping is bad" is a formula for a coalition that is 0.02% bigger tomorrow, and on life support in 5 years. But, truthfully, I don't think these people actually believe this. Not really. They have their lines, and they're just telling us where those lines are (or aren't).
“Gatekeeping is good.” Appreciate the clarity. Put me in the camp of “gatekeeping is bad, no matter how much I agree with the positions of the self-selected gatekeepers.”

It's none of my concern if you want bad immigration policy to be your religion. But it's an entirely different matter if you want my religion to be your bad immigration policy.

I'll make you a deal: If any one of you obsessive Jew haters can tell me what Romans 5:22 says, I'll change my display name to "dumbsh*t" and never post again. But if you can't, you have to actually read your Bible before pretending it justifies your hatred.

"I hate the city. I hate the bachelorettes. I hate the pedal taverns. I hate country music. I hate all of the things that make Nashville. I hate it." It's an absolutely nuclear quote to surface, and literally her only defense is "well, I cry a lot". This is NOT a hard call, TN.
NO, I DO NOT HATE THE CITY I REPRESENT 🤣🤣🤣 The national GOP's new attack? That I “hate Nashville." I’ve cried in the Country Music Hall of Fame no less than 10 times. They’re panicking because we’re close to winning. Eyes on the prize, y’all. Let’s go.

I know people are concerned about VPNs screwing this up, but so far it seems pretty accurate.

I haven't seen the new Skillet video causing all the hubbub yet, but I first saw them in concert 24 years ago, and... it makes me feel old to say things like that. So does saying things like "hubbub", but that's just the sort of thing that pops out now.

Two rules for being a successful political commentator: 1. Be absolutely certain about things we just learned 6 minutes ago. 2. Demonstrate absolutely no memory of things we've known for years.

“No enemies to the right” has effectively become an “open borders policy” for a theological movement.

This is a perfect example of why “no enemies to the right” is deeply flawed. Anything that’s not perfectly aligned with sound biblical doctrine must be open to criticism and driven out of our circles if necessary. Any lie is an enemy of the truth and should be treated as such!

She would be mobbed or arrested if she tried wearing this anywhere under Palestinian control. Irony awareness: zero.
Miss Palestine isn’t just wearing a dress, she’s wearing our heritage: a mosque, a church, and olive trees woven into one unbreakable Palestinian story. And honestly… I loved it so much😍😍

No, he's not a Nazi, he's just defining his vision for a *checks notes* "National Socialist American Workers' Party"
Progressive Democrats and nationalist Republicans need to work together. The left will have to give up on immigration, and the right on the free market. That would be a popular compromise and a blueprint to remove support for Israel.

Immense planning and technical precision was required for this absolutely preposterous (but real) view: I captured my friend @BlackGryph0n transiting the sun during a skydive. This might be the first photo of it's kind in existence. See a video of this moment in the reply 👇

The problem with the "woke right" isn't that every one of their beefs is invalid. The problem is that, like the woke left, they marshal all that anger into identity-based grievances, and then spend all their time being hateful little twerps instead of improving their situation.
