Example: I ran for US Senate in a primary as a Republican. I lost and was obligated to support Bill Cassidy in the general. I have zero loyalty to him and in fact, just helped defeat him in his latest primary. Now he is obligated to support the winner. But what we’ve seen from these establishment types like Cornyn, is they refuse to reciprocate when they lose. That is wrong.
I appreciate that you had the honesty to engage in a forthright manner so you deserve a straightforward response. Loyalty to a particular politician is different and loyalty to a particular party. Where, you support the politician regardless, you have no contrary obligation. You are not employed agreeing to support someone else it’s your candidate loses. With a party it’s different. If you participate in a primary, you are acting as part of the party. The implied obligation is that you will support the winner if you lose; the other side will support your candidate if they lose. Accordingly, they are different things. I think politicians owe an obligation to the voters, not vice versa. You should support a particular politician as long as he supports what you support. The dynamic for a party is different. When you participate in party politics, you are agreeing to be part of a team. That means when you lose in a primary, you grit your teeth and support the guy who won with the understanding that if your candidate won, your opponents would do the same. Again, I appreciate your honest request for clarification and I hope I provided it.

Guy has an idea, a pretty good one. Tells an AI engine to write 100K-word book on it with chapters. AI complies. He sends results to me for publication. I say: good idea but will not publish AI slop. Also, how can he submit this as his own in good conscience? He says, screw me, he already has two competing offers from other publishers.

The Cherokee called her the War Woman. She was a tall, red-haired, cross-eyed frontier wife who could not read or write, and according to the most famous story of the Georgia backcountry, she once captured a whole squad of enemy soldiers single-handedly, in her own cabin, with their own guns. Her name was Nancy Hart, and she is the only woman in the history of Georgia to have a county named after her. Hart lived on the raw Georgia frontier during the Revolution, in a region torn apart by a savage, personal civil war between Patriots and Loyalists. She was a fierce rebel, and she made no secret of it. She spied, she smuggled, and she was known to disguise herself to gather information on the enemy. The Loyalists and their Native allies knew her and feared her temper, and she earned that ominous nickname, the War Woman, with a creek near her home named for her. The legend that made her immortal goes like this. A group of Loyalist soldiers, five or six of them, came to her isolated cabin one day. They had been hunting a Patriot leader, and they barged in, bragging about their deeds, and demanded that Nancy cook for them. She played the part of the grumbling but obliging hostess. She killed the last turkey, set it cooking, and, crucially, kept the men's cups full of wine and corn liquor. As the soldiers relaxed, ate, drank, and let their guard down, they stacked their muskets against the wall, out of easy reach. That was their mistake. There was a gap or chink in the cabin's log wall, and as the men grew drunk and careless, Nancy quietly began slipping their muskets, one at a time, out through that opening to the outside, while sending her daughter to signal for help. She got several guns out before the soldiers noticed. When one of them finally realized what was happening and lunged for the weapons, Nancy snatched up a musket, leveled it, and warned them she would shoot any man who moved. One did. She shot him dead. Another rushed her, and she shot him too. Then she held the rest at gunpoint, alone, until her husband and neighbors arrived. And the ending is grim frontier justice. The surviving Loyalists begged to be treated as prisoners of war. Nancy would have none of it. She insisted, over milder suggestions, that shooting was too good for them, and the captured Tories were hanged. For a long time this was dismissed by some as pure tall tale, backcountry folklore that grew with the telling, and to be fair, the details have surely been polished over two centuries. But then history offered a chilling footnote. Generations later, in the early 1900s, workers building a railroad near the site of Hart's old cabin dug up a neat row of skeletons in a shallow grave, right where the story said the bodies should be. Bones do not prove every detail of a legend. But they gave the story a weight that has never quite gone away. Georgia never forgot her. They named a county after her, Hart County, the only one in the entire state named for a woman, along with a lake and a town. Remember Nancy Hart, the War Woman, who did not wait for an army to protect her home, and who proved that on the Revolutionary frontier, some of the most dangerous soldiers around were not soldiers at all.

I feel the exact same thing for these two people. There is no fundamental or moral difference between them. And they should receive the exact same treatment.

Very disappointing to hear you’re willing to throw away net negative migration for the first time in 50 years, an 86% reduction in H-1Bs and import 11 million more illegals because gas prices are a little high. I thought you were serious.

The Plains tribes were the tallest people on earth in the 1890s, and one generation of government rations took it all away. The Plains man of the 1890s: - Height: 172.6cm, tallest in the world - Europeans: several centimetres shorter - Diet: buffalo hump, tongue, marrow and liver - Winter food: pemmican, dried meat pounded into fat - Buffalo: tens of millions The Plains man of the reservation: - Buffalo left in 1889: 1,091 - Diet: government flour, sugar, coffee and bacon - 1889: Congress cuts the beef ration - 1890: Wounded Knee - 20th century: commodity flour, shortening and processed cheese Their descendants today: - Diabetes: highest of any racial group in America - Rate: more than twice that of white Americans Same people. Same land. Same sky. The buffalo went, the flour came, and the tallest people on earth became the most diabetic people in their own country.

They killed the Peacemaker by assassination in front of the world and his family at an AMERICAN University -and celebrated it. And you’re wondering whether you should vote or not? Vote like YOUR life depends on it, because it does.

I’m a gay Republican. Trump appointed Richard Grenell as the first openly gay Cabinet-level official in U.S. history. He later chose Scott Bessent, the first openly gay Treasury secretary. His administration also backed a global effort to decriminalize homosexuality. Those are facts, whether they fit your political narrative or not.

Just in: Moosehead Brewery in Canada is the largest brewery in the Country. Due to tariffs, they are selling their booze to the United States at a LOSS. They continue to do this because we are their largest buyer by far, and they don't want to lose the business altogether. In two days, the total ban of Canadian Alcohol (non-alcoholic beverages are exempt) takes effect and thousands of Canadian businesses will not survive if the ban actually takes place on Tuesday. Thanks to Mark Carney who decided it was a great idea to pick a fight and walk away from a great deal with their largest trading partner over TDS and politics.

If anyone needs your support, it is this woman. She is running against the deep state.
I am running to unseat Maggie Goodlander, Jake Sullvan's wife, the powerful deep state couple in DC. It is a huge uphill battle. I need national support to win. Please donate & spread the word. Q3 filing deadline is 9/30. @paulsperry_ lilytangwilliams.com/congres…

The RAF Fairford attack could have been one of the biggest mass terrorist attacks in British history The fact that it was stopped by a Farmer who saw people looking out of place and not from the community shows that diversity is not our strength The opposite is in fact true

This is Saher Nidal Saqr. This orc took place in the massacre at the Nova music festival and was captured on film dragging away Noa Argamani as she reached for her boyfriend Avinatan Or. This became one of the most iconic images of the massacre. Today, Saqr was splattered.

Of course I support Vivek but because he’s conservative, not because he’s Indian. I don’t support any Indian Democrats. I also support Mike Rogers in Michigan, Susan Collins in Maine, Mike Collins in Georgia, and Ken Paxton in Texas. I’m voting GOP straight down the line.
