Thank you Jesus Christ for enduring unimaginable pain and suffering for my broken soul. You are my Lord and Savior.

Happy birthday Truck Robinson! Slick Watts to Pistol Pete Maravich to Truck Robinson. Doesn’t much cooler than that.
On Monday we showed you unreleased video from January 6th. It proved that three of the most important claims our leaders have made about that day were untrue. They were lies. But what was surprising is how they responded when they were caught lying. They exploded in rage.
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem @MSNBC is an extreme Leftist/Socialist/Commie/Marxist/etc propagandist, and @ZaheemAleem is their paid employee. That is all. #TheLeftHatesAmerica
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem The Oscars is no longer an awards show ... it's become a political forum for the woke
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem "Insidious" is a perfect description of your so-called journalism. I would suggest you get a life but that concept would probably escape you.
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem What a wasted 2 minutes from my life. Should have known better reading an opinion piece from MSNBC. Not fit for wrapping fish.
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem The Oscar’s have criticized in the past for selecting obscure, unmemorable movies that are forgotten in 6 months. It’s about time they chose something popular that people enjoyed.
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem The people that fight for us are heroes. My dad was a Mustang fighter pilot in WWII. He trained and did what his country asked of him and was shot down over Holland. This movie is about bravery, skill, and honor. You know nothing about any of that.
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ is the best movie in the last 10 years and it’s not even close. Hollywood has gone down the drain with worthless movies. Did you notice how much money it made? Sure you did. That’s because people wanted to see something positive for once. An AWESOME movie.
@MSNBC @ZeeshanAleem The people that built this nation served, I served. Maybe serve before you speak, meanwhile enjoy all the liberties that we provided for you!
@GoodmanHoops Pete Maravich shot 44% for his career, Davis shot 41%.
