“Gentlemen, I want to show you how a Confederate soldier dies.” This is John Nichols. 22 years old. He is seated in leg irons attached to a ball and chain. A guard’s leg and revolver are visible at the edge of the frame. He was born in Kentucky in 1841 and raised in Pettis County, Missouri. During the Civil War, Nichols and partner James Johnson ran one of the smallest guerrilla bands in the region. Through late 1862 and early 1863 they robbed isolated farms and travelers in Johnson, Pettis, and Henry counties. Union authorities in Sedalia issued a shoot-on-sight order against them. Nichols was captured in Morgan County on April 25, 1863. A military commission tried him at Jefferson City that June. Witnesses described him as “a guerrilla and a highway robber” and “a terror to that county more than any other living man.” One man testified that Nichols had taken him prisoner, threatened to kill him with buckshot, then robbed him of $100 and his horse after he fled. The sentence of death was reviewed and approved by Missouri Governor Hamilton Gamble and President Lincoln. He attempted to escape and was wounded by a guard. On October 30, 1863, he was taken from the guardhouse in a wagon, seated on his own coffin, dressed in a white shroud with his arms pinioned. Four companies of Wisconsin infantry and a troop of cavalry escorted him to a gallows set in a ravine a mile outside Jefferson City. He placed the noose around his own neck and told the crowd, “Gentlemen, I want to show you how a Confederate soldier dies.” A priest told him to hush. Nichols replied, “Go away, I mean what I say.” His last words were: “Yes, I have shot at soldiers and they have shot at me. I have threatened people, and people have threatened me.” He was the first bushwhacker hanged in Missouri by sentence of a military court. Image from Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield; WICR 30211

Thank you coach.
You are a liar and a coward Mr Mayor. Even on the day we mourn the innocent victims of Oct 7th, you spew a sick false narrative about the War in Gaza. Hamas is 💯responsible for the loss of life on BOTH. SIDES!

He knew what he was talking about! In 1974, Robert Welch, founder of The John Birch Society, warned about the globalist plan to destroy America, in a speech which has since proven to be remarkably accurate.

We can no longer afford obamacare. We dropped it and sought our own coverage. $234 / month. Obamacare was 10x that much when you added in the end of the year balloon payment.

Happy Birthday @martystuarthq out of Philadelphia, Mississippi; Marty Stuart’s legacy is defined by his unique dual identity as both a master musician and the ultimate guardian of country music’s history. Over a career spanning more than five decades, Stuart has transitioned seamlessly from a childhood prodigy to a Country Music Hall of Fame inductee, all while compiling one of the most culturally significant private music collections in the world—Perhaps the most lasting element of Stuart’s legacy is his role as a cultural archivist. While Nashville continuously modernized, Stuart quietly saved its history—Over 40 years, Stuart amassed a staggering private collection of over 20,000 country music artifacts, including handwritten lyrics, rare instruments, and iconic rhinestone Nudie suits once worn by legends like Hank Williams and Johnny Cash; 68 Today….

The voodoo of tribalism -- an example: If Bernie Sanders proposed giving every adult in America $5,000, Republicans would ridicule it. But when Donald Trump proposes the same ... That's the power of tribe.

It’s not hard to see it but the small gay/ homo enclaves where flags fly displaying the colored flag is nothing more than a cult. The weirdness of announcing who one might have sex with is a very strange narcissistic cult. I can’t believe grown adults can’t see the weirdness.

Adam Carolla: "It’s sad that Obama turned into a piece of sh*t, but he’s just a fucking hustler like everybody else. He’s not done anything good in or out of office, except for agitate black people and to pretend to be some sort of statesman."

To be brutally honest, you’d have to be an absolute fucking idiot, with the critical thinking skills of a lobotomised goldfish to need any reminder of the glaringly obvious truth: that pumping your body full of powerful drugs which destroy your sexual function, libido, and long-term physical health, while hacking off perfectly healthy body parts in some deranged quest to “transition,” is an absolute catastrophe for your mental health. And let’s not sugarcoat this insanity: even after all that self-mutilation and chemical castration, you still don’t come anywhere close to resembling the opposite sex. You just end up looking like a grotesque, surgically butchered parody of a human being trapped in a broken, infertile shell with irreversible damage, skyrocketing regret, and a shredded psyche that was already fragile to begin with. Wake the fuck up.
Adolescents struggling with gender dysphoria who sought gender transition medical treatment were found to have worse mental health symptoms in the long term compared to their peers, contradicting the belief that so-called “gender-affirming care” significantly improves outcomes.
