My scary classroom social experiment demonstrating how tyrannies arise from democracies: I gave a bunch of extra credit tickets to the first few students to arrive in class, then everyone else received 1-2 tickets. The kids that came into class last were outraged by the “injustice” of those that came first getting a greater reward. There were no rules or directions for this day in class. I just told them I’d act as an enforcer of whatever they decided to do in the 47 minutes. The girl circled in red- Emily- was a genius. She used her charisma and charm to court the majority of her peers that had less coupons, and played off their resentment of the minority that had earned more tickets for arriving to class early. In the allotted time she convinced her peers that if they voted to give her absolute power, she would confiscate the 40+ coupons held by the minority and distribute them equally. The minority of students were frustrated, but powerless against the majority vote. Emily was elected to a “supreme ruler” position, and as promised she confiscated all of the tickets from the minority of students that arrived to class first. That’s when things got interesting. She kept the vast majority of tickets for herself, and distributed a few to some of her friends. It was a microcosm of what has happened historically time and time again, and the danger our republic faces. I asked the students to write a reflection on how they now viewed unrestrained majority-rules democracy, and their opinions has definitely changed from the day prior.

“Now, I may not be the best mother, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna sit here and listen to that little homewrecker lie about the dimensions of the tent my husband molested her in!”
BOMBSHELL: Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton’s own mother urges voters not to vote for her daughter. “My name is Donna Arthur and I’m Amy Acton’s mother. I worked at Children and Family Service Association, building one of the first two sexual abuse programs in America. I love my daughter, but when I saw her lying about her opponent—and it’s not easy for a mother to say this—but Amy has a serious problem. She is a liar. She lies about her past. She says she grew up living in a tent. None of that is true. She’s lied her entire life. My daughter needs help, and she can’t help you if she needs help herself. People can change, but first they have to tell the truth, and my daughter still isn’t doing that. Don’t vote for people who lie. Don’t let her become your governor. If you think she’ll make your life better, you’re fooling yourself. It will only get worse.” That’s one hell of an October surprise.

Acton's mother lost custody of her children after years of documented issues, including time spent living in a tent and a spouse who sexually abused her daughter Amy (Acton). Amy Acton's brother has also confirmed this story. x.com/amyactonoh/sta… wkbn.com/news/local-new… time.com/collections/co… vindyarchives.com/news/2019/aug/… 614now.com/2020/culture/c… actonforgovernor.com/meet-amy/

There’s truly nothing quite like when the Democrats that constantly lecture you on racism pander to Black voters.

Please take a moment to congratulate Dakota Meyer, our nation’s greatest living hero and recipient of the Medal of Honor for repeatedly braving enemy fire in Afghanistan to rescue wounded troops and bring his fallen brothers home. Our local school watchdog group- Parents Care- had the honor of hosting Dakota, who flew all the way from Alaska to speak to parents and students about what it takes to be the best Americans we can be. He charged nothing and even paid his own way. He has already given this country more than most of us will ever be asked to give, yet he continues to give his time to its next generation. Thank you, Dakota, for your service, your generosity, and the example you set for our children- and congratulations on your appointment!
Honored by the trust and confidence of @SecWar. This isn’t just a job for me. This is personal. From this point forward, there’s no confusion about who’s accountable. If we don’t get this fixed, there’s only one person to blame. Me. Our Service members have kept their promise to this country. Now it’s time we keep ours. No more excuses. No more empty promises. Just accountability, action, and results. Clean. Safe. Comfortable. Period. We’ve got work to do. Let’s get after it.

122K followers. Pretty remarkable for a conservative, Catholic, and former teacher who exposed and challenged DEI. Never compromised my principles for engagement- including going after Jews or Israel to grow my audience. Thank you for following. I’m grateful you’re here.

The claim that French police killed a medic during October 17, 2026, Paris protests is false. The individual (Antoine) shown in videos was treated for cranial trauma and survived. x.com/ImpactMediaFR/…

Incredible. Thank you. Sometimes you don't realize the positive impact you have on people's lives until someone tells you.
Replying to @CBHeresy
I'm grateful for you Frank. You opened my eyes. All the work and sacrifice. Changed our lives. I pulled my kids out of school. Bc of the things you exposed. I saw it in my kids classes. Please know that. They're graduated now. Happy, healthy, and safe. Thank you for your help

I honestly do not understand how anyone can see what's happening in France and not be profoundly sympathetic to the nation of Israel.

Want to understand what has happened in France? Need to understand where white guilt comes from. It comes from the schools. Our schools matter. Strictly Education explains👇 piped.video/Z2Cj_RX4SuA?si=PYXv…
