1) Here I will prove that Heritage Foundation has long been dishonest and is impervious to the truth. Take a look at the date on that article. We’re going to review the entire article and afterwards, reveal the truth. So let’s begin.⬇️ Image 2) Can any of this have been true at this time or afterwards, I ask you? As the MAGA followers of Trump made obstinate stands against wearing masks and turned it into a culture war issue? One that Heritage fed into themselves, as well? Let’s keep going.⬇️

1) Since Senator Josh Hawley wants to play this ridiculous game of “Ukraine stole from my state of Missouri”, I decided to look into the facts. Hawley is, in fact, lying because Missouri does get significant federal funding. So let’s look into this, shall we?⬇️ Image 2) For one thing, if your state is struggling with funding, then cutting taxes for two years in a row was clearly not a good idea, yes? Is it the job of the federal government to make up the difference in what the state cut from tax revenue? Let’s keep going.⬇️ Image

1) I’ll answer this in more detail. Why is Heritage Foundation against funding Ukraine? For these reasons:
A) It isn’t ENOUGH money going to defense contractors.
B) That war can be won, thus it will end, along with the money.

Therefore, defense contractors need⬇️
Image
Image
2) Defense contractors need a bigger threat that has an unknown proficiency in war. It would be hard to sell trillions of dollars worth of weapons against a Russia whose tanks are being beaten by Bradleys built in the 1980s. As I said, a Russia that can be defeated by Ukraine.⬇️

1) The Marathon Initiative is Elbridge Colby’s organization. Now you hear him and a whole bunch of other people talking about the “defense industrial base” which is just another way to say Military Industrial Complex. But I found the genesis of that phrase. Let’s see it⬇️ Image 2) This article from 2021. Well, look who we have here! The Heritage Foundation! Why am I not surprised since I found this on a search for “Does Heritage Foundation get funding from Lockheed Martin?” But let’s look at some interesting sections from the article.⬇️ Image

1) Now I shall expose another Heritage Foundation “ex-purt”, whose expertise as a Chik-Fil-A manager surely informs him on these issues. And, yes, I will prove that. Meet Christian Lasval, where chicken sandwiches provide the “meat” of foreign and public policy. And⬇️
Image
Image
2) Here I prove what I said above. And we’ll prove much more in the next tweets of this thread. You see, Heritage “ex-purts” are NOT experts but inexperienced charlatans with equally absurd skills at propaganda. They’re easily detected as having little to no genuine credentials⬇️ Image

1) I did some digging into the past of Elbridge Colby and found this article from 2020. I can see some reasons why he’s saying the things he’s saying. “Build more weapons! We must be ready for a war with China!” So, without further ado, let me share passages from this article ⬇️ Image 2) Well, you don’t say! Maybe it’s about some money! Let’s see what else⬇️ Image

1) Here’s another Republican scam I will expose. The Republican Jewish Coalition. In fact, its members might not be Jewish at all. Which I will prove. It’s just another way that money is funneled to the GOP. Maybe from corporations or foreign governments. Let’s look at this⬇️
Image
Image
2) When you go to their membership page, here’s what you see. Are there any qualifications that you be Jewish to join this? And how would you prove it if there were? But what they’re doing is SAYING this is a Jewish organization when we can see it probably isn’t. And⬇️ Image

1) Now this one is interesting. What they don’t tell you is that this “poll” uses a proprietary and trademarked polling technique that is only used by the company Heritage Foundation used for this “poll”. I looked into this and I’ll show you what I found.⬇️ Image 2) From the Heritage Foundation article, we see here that RMG Research Inc. did this “poll”. The president of RMG, Scott Rasmussen, had this to say. Now at the end of the article, we learn something interesting. Let’s see that.⬇️

1) This is a LIE that has been incessantly repeated to the American people and accepted as truth. And it has caused serious harm to society. It has caused the deaths of countless people. It destroys the environment we live in. Let’s examine the consequences of this lie⬇️ Image 2) Consider the last statement: “Individualism protects each of us against the selfishness of our fellow citizens, including authorities.” This is telling you that other people are “selfish” if they want equity and justice and an equal share. Quite the contradiction. And⬇️ Image

1) Here is a map. Yes, if attacked, Iran can probably close the Strait of Hormuz and cause world oil prices to skyrocket. Red Sea transit remains a problem due to Iranian-backed Houthis. If Iran was attacked, they would most likely retaliate economically. To do this⬇️ Image 2) Iran would need to impact the world oil supply and market. People who point to US domestic oil production must put this illusion from their minds. The PRICE is determined by world supply and demand, not the US domestic supply. Could Iran do this⬇️to the US or Europe? Well⬇️

1) There is yet another aspect to this that needs to be understood. Christianity is not under attack. But if Trump is elected, it will be. Trump and his fanatical followers have very definite ideas of what a Christian is—and what a Christian is not. And this must be understood⬇️ Image 2) Faith, like voting, is an article of the conscience of every human being. If one’s faith is determined by political party affiliation, we are in the midst of a coming nightmare and a road that ends at the gates of a concentration camp. Do I exaggerate? Do you think?⬇️ Image

1) I am going to be devoting some time to debunking Heritage Foundation disinformation and propaganda. Now this one wasn’t especially hard to destroy. Notice no FACTS are provided to support this assertion? That’s because it’s false. And I’ll prove that below⬇️ Image 2) You just ask a simple question and look! Brookings proves that Heritage Foundation is wrong. You can find lots of empirical evidence from several countries proving Heritage wrong. But let’s get into who actually said it at Heritage.⬇️ Image

1) I’m now going to expose a new Russian troll operation. This is going to be a long thread, but you’re going to need to read it in full to understand what’s going on. So, I posted this reply to a TNM tweet. And the replies to my tweet are a gold mine. Read on⬇️
Image
Image
2) It’s in these “Show additional replies” where you find the newbie Russian trolls. So I opened it up, and what do I see? Cyrillic. But there’s more to this than meets the eye. What you’re seeing is a new Russian troll tactic: Posing as Ukrainians on American accounts. And⬇️

1) Since the Arizona Supreme Court wants to use an Arizona law from 1864 to ban abortion, I found an Arizona law that should be enforced immediately. There is an Arizona law that says Trump American flags like this⬇️are illegal. And I will prove it below ⬇️ Image 2) Say hello to Arizona Revised Statutes Title 13 Criminal Code § 13-3703. Flags are considered venerated objects and it is illegal to abuse them. Now, they go into detail as to what constitutes abuse, so let’s see that.⬇️ Image

1) The reason the US has so many pro-secession people is we don’t have a safety valve to vent these dipshits anymore. That is, a frontier and US territories with very little federal control over what happened there. You see, after the Civil War, things changed. And⬇️ 2) They couldn’t break themselves off from the US, so they went to where the US wasn’t. Or at least was hardly there at all. And certain things coincided to keep the numbers of these dissatisfied people down to manageable levels. Because of gold and silver booms. Where⬇️

I read the article and didn’t find it at all convincing. He glosses over the fact that the “resentments” of rural MAGA are towards other people who they don’t like. Quite a bit is racially motivated. Look at the photo on the right from the article. What dialogue is possible here?
Image

Really, they blame their own often self-inflicted socioeconomic ills on absurd things like “wokeism” and “DEI”. Anything they don’t like which has no real-world impact on things like, oh I don’t know, the BANK foreclosing on their farm. Republicans cutting social programs, etc.

1) I began to suspect the Ukraine war, defense contractor shenanigans, the new "China threat", and the "NATO must fend for themselves" talking points were all connected.
Heritage Foundation inadvertently gave me the key to unlocking the mystery. I'll show you.⬇️ Image 2) This is from the above 2025 defense budget proposal. Now WHY would you walk away from defeating Russia? And not only that, but walk away from NATO? While focusing on China, which has invaded no one, and keeping Israel well supplied? I think it’s this in my next post⬇️

1) I’m not a “blank check for America” kind of guy. I don’t support everything the US does or has done. Now, Ukraine was the first right thing we’d done in decades. But we just couldn’t do it, could we? Nope! Just too damn hard to do the right thing. Well, about that⬇️ 2) Miss me with the next bullshit no-win war you want to have. Fuck another Middle East war. Fuck a war with China, too. The war we SHOULD be involved in is in Ukraine. But again, the incompetent assholes we claim is a House of Representatives couldn’t do it! And why?⬇️

1) You knew it was coming: The Trump Bible. Yes, Trump is selling Bibles. Well, not him (so they say) but his name. Which is perfect to add the existing Christian Nationalist fanaticism to the fascist ideology of MAGA. Let’s have a look at this Bible, shall we?⬇️ Image 2) Artificial leather binding (Leatherflex or something like that) since it’s the usual binding for Bibles made in China. And most of them are now, unless you shell out money for a high quality Cambridge one. Added to the scriptures are things that have nothing to do with it.⬇️

1) Know Your Russian Trolls! Do you ever post tweets about MAGA when suddenly a bunch of poorly spelled, barely coherent rants about Ukraine, Biden, and the federal government come in? Guess what? You have vatniks in the replies! So let’s identify a few.⬇️ Image 2) While not as prevalent as they were prior to being exposed by NAFO, a lot of vatniks were posing as “Texians”. They would say things like “I am 10th generation Texian wanting to TEXIT and seceeding to got rid of federal govts” You’ll know the cowboy katsaps when you see them⬇️ Image

1) It’s time for another episode of…
Uncomfortable American History by Jack’s House. Now, John Rich here hates the US government, hates paying taxes, and is very right wing. Here he leads the crowd in the song “God Bless America”. I happen to know about that song. And⬇️ Image 2) The song was written by Irving Berlin. Berlin himself said it’s not a patriotic song, but a song of gratitude. What do you think? Do the MAGA seem especially grateful to you? In their endless whining about the “hard earned tax dollars” necessary to run this country? And⬇️ Image
