Virtue signaling at the Grammys is its own sport.

Calling the U.S. “stolen land” isn’t a deep point—it’s a claim of illegitimacy. And once you do that, you’re not “critiquing,” you’re denying the authority behind borders, citizenship, and law… while still cashing every check that system makes possible.

If you think this country is illegitimate, what’s the plan—besides moral posturing for applause?

Because this trend is old: trending phrases, shifting definitions, constant accusations—racist yesterday, fascist today—anything to keep the moral high ground without sacrificing comfort.

People are waking up and walking away from the brainwashing.

A friend of mine sent this to me! This was around the time when my “Woke fever” broke!

Do you have a story like this?

A federal judge has halted Minnesota officials’ efforts to appeal the entry of more federal law enforcement into the state.

To understand this and other stories, I need to see where information is coming from on all ends of the spectrum.

Please explain how this is acceptable. This man isn’t an ICE agent, yet these bullies are demanding he show his ID. Toward the end of the clip, a woman tells him he should “rent a car” because his vehicle resembles an ICE vehicle. How much more intolerable can these seemingly mentally unwell individuals become?

Like those who vandalized Teslas, those engaging in this behavior appear to be deeply emotionally troubled. I’d even say in some cases, they might be dealing with psychiatric issues.

I have a few more videos coming up...

I’m tired of watching people on the left — including self-proclaimed civil rights activists and lawyers — melt down over Don Lemon’s arrest while refusing to engage the actual mechanics of law. You don’t get to build the rules, weaponize the language of “civil rights,” and then suddenly act confused when those same tools apply to your side.

Here’s the grown-up version:

An arrest isn’t a verdict. It’s not a conviction. It’s a procedural step when authorities claim they have lawful grounds to treat someone as a suspect.

And the First Amendment isn’t a magic “journalist” forcefield. It limits government punishment for viewpoint — it does not automatically immunize conduct when the allegation is interference, obstruction, intimidation, or participation in a disruption.

As reported: he was arrested January 29, 2026, tied to a January 18 protest that disrupted a church service at Cities Church in Minnesota, then released.

What matters now is what the government can prove in court — beyond a reasonable doubt — about observation vs participation.

And yes, the irony is rich: the same political ecosystem that cheered aggressive civil-rights enforcement now calls it “fascism” the second U.S. Department of Justice uses civil-rights statutes in a politically inconvenient direction.

If you’re going to scream “fascism,” at least be honest enough to ask:
— Was there a lawful basis for the arrest?
— Do the statutes plausibly fit the alleged conduct?
— Was this reporting… or participation?

Because freaking out over the existence of an arrest — while ignoring procedure and context — is exactly how civics dies.

If you’re surprised by this, and you think it’s evidence of a “fascist state,” then you REALLY can’t be taken seriously.

HE BROKE THE LAW! Why are some people so abysmally ignorant and stupid? And if you’re neither of those things, then at least admit you’re missing information so your brain can update to interact with reality. There is 0 intellectual humility or curiosity today. You see a “gay black man” getting arrested, again, FOR BREAKING THE LAW, and you spaz out.

I’m ENTIRELY convinced that some people will never get it. You have to be developmentally arrested emotionally not to connect the simplest of dots: you do something wrong 👉 you experience the consequences.

Former cable news anchor Don Lemon was arrested last night, three sources with direct knowledge tell CBS News. A source familiar says a grand jury was empaneled on this yesterday. FBI and HSI were involved in the arrest, sources say.

It was not immediately clear what charges he would be facing. CBS News has reached out to Lemon's representatives and the Department of Justice for comment.

This video is meant to challenge your thinking. So please contribute your thoughts based on the question I ask at the end.

We talk about “tribalism” like it’s just bad behavior. But a lot of what we’re watching is psychological: the need for closure, discomfort with uncertainty, and moral conviction turning into a kind of inner mandate. When that happens, disagreement stops feeling like something to think through and starts feeling destabilizing — and allegiance becomes the shortcut.

In the reel I zoom out and connect the mechanisms to how people moralize the ICE project, how others moralize law-and-order enforcement, and why rigidity can start to feel like “principle” when it’s often just emotional settling.

Question for you: what bothers you more — hearing the other side speak, or hearing someone on your side break ranks?

What makes some people on the left super insufferable is their petulant impulse to call anyone who disagrees with them a “MAGA fascist.”

Okay, love — you’re dysregulated. You can’t think critically right now. You’re not interpreting what I said; you’re reacting to a caricature your nervous system invented because it can’t tolerate disagreement without turning it into a moral emergency.

And yes — sometimes that’s neurodivergence and genuine cue-misreading. But a lot of the time it’s personality-level dysfunction: chronic splitting, projection, rigidity, and a low threshold for ambiguity. You don’t have a stable way of holding other people in your mind as people. You flatten them into symbols so you can feel righteous while you punish them.

None of that is my problem to fix or adjust to.

Because the ability to view other human beings fairly is basically proportional to your capacity for theory of mind — to differentiate what you believe someone means from what they actually mean, and to tolerate nuance long enough to ask a clarifying question instead of launching a moral missile.

If your reflex is to flatten a human being into a caricature after interacting with them — and they haven’t done anything to warrant that level of contempt — then I’m not going to pretend this is normal. I’m not going to pretend it’s “just politics.” That’s not conviction. That’s impairment.

There is no world where that isn’t clinically relevant. Call it emotional dysregulation. Call it disordered traits. Call it whatever you want. But when someone habitually dehumanizes strangers, assigns malicious intent with zero evidence, and treats disagreement as proof of moral contamination — that’s not a principled person. That’s somebody with something going on.

I’m not kowtowing around this issue anymore. Some of you need some severe therapy.

A civil rights attorney storms a church service to “confront an injustice” because an ICE Field Office Director is also a pastor.

But, this isn’t a policy critique. It’s a moral verdict — ICE = evil — and then that verdict gets treated like permission to intrude on other people’s rights.

A lot of these protesters can’t even fathom that sovereignty, border security, and putting citizens first can be moral claims worth defending. In their frame, harm-reduction for illegal immigrants is the only moral posture that “counts,” so enforcement is cruelty by definition.

But in a constitutional society, your moral certainty doesn’t grant you jurisdiction over other people. You can protest, persuade, litigate, and vote — you don’t get to coerce consciences by barging into protected spaces.

She was arrested/charged Jan 22, 2026 — and that’s what boundaries look like when speech is protected, but moral domination isn’t.

Another Don Lemon “masterclass” on how not to know the law.

Imagine being on TV and saying:
“It’s not a crime. It’s a misdemeanor.”

That’s not a gaffe..

Unlawful presence is illegal. Illegal entry is illegal.
Civil vs criminal ≠ legal vs not.
And “we don’t prosecute it” ≠ “it isn’t on the books.”

Stop substituting moral posturing for basic knowledge.

A lot of people misunderstand the First Amendment.

It protects speech from government censorship — not from consequences when you disrupt a private event. A church is private property, and a worship service isn’t a public square. Your right to speak doesn’t include a right to force others to host your speech.

And importantly: the First Amendment protects their religious exercise too.

We have hours to help save from being executed by the Islamic Regime in Iran! Pressure the media outlets to make his name public. Listen to my video and the clip I shared from account on why this could work to save him!

Hashtag his name in media accounts and tag those accounts to this profile, and others that are doing the same thing!

Let’s use these platforms in powerful ways!
