If you’re not following Data Republican, you’re missing everything.
🚨THIS SHOULD BE A CRIME🚨
DataRepublican (I’m intentionally not tagging her) is less than 3.5k away from one million followers!
I don’t have a large reach, but with your help, I think we could get her over the mark in no time at all.
Let’s show her some appreciation for everything she has done exposing the things she has been exposing and at the same time celebrate the release of her book!
PS. Don’t tell her I posted this. She won’t be happy with me. 🫣

In life, I struggle, I suffer, I’m tempted, I’m tested, sometimes I feel so weak. But when I am weak, I am strong. Because Christ, He is my hope, He is my strength, He is a firm foundation that never fails. Jesus is worthy of it all. May He be glorified always, not just on the mountain tops, but even in the valleys.
“Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him. O my people, trust in him at all times. Pour out your heart to him, for God is our refuge.”
Psalms 62:5, 8

Galatians 1:8-9: But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

🚨 DATA ISN'T COMMENTATING ANYMORE — SHE’S DROPPING TRUTH BOMBS 🫳🏻💣
@DataRepublican just crossed into a different level.
She’s no longer just a high-signal account in right-leaning commentary.
She’s become one of the few people systematically releasing multi-part, primary-source drops on USAID, NGO networks, and the operational planning behind domestic “democracy” efforts — complete with original recordings, documents, and video receipts.
The Democracy Files / Illegitimacy Playbook series is the clearest example. Parts 5–8 alone show private calls and strategy docs where groups discuss:
• Consulting current federal workers on blocking agency actions during “emergencies” (and telling them not to put it in writing)
• Pre-organizing around specific “red lines” that would allow governors to treat the federal government as illegitimate
• Building structures for a post-crisis rewrite of governance (including a “People’s Proposal” of structural reforms)
What this actually means: the gap between public messaging and private operational planning is now on the record, in their own words, while the events are still unfolding. That used to require years of FOIAs, lawsuits, or investigative teams. She’s doing the archival work in real time and posting the raw material.
Why follow: because most commentary reacts to the narrative. DATA is one of the few on X (or anywhere else for that matter) consistently posting the underlying documents and recordings that the narrative is built on top of.
If you want the receipts instead of the summary, this is where they’re landing.
Her series is active.
The drops are public.
Legacy media is playing defense.

Got an email from a Viet Nam vet friend. At the end of our careers we were both heavily involved in developing NCO training for TRADOC. Our friendship continues 30 years after we retired. He sent me an article he read in the Independent (UK) saying that Democrats were blaming SecWar Pete Hegseth for the death of the Air Force PJ who died while doing a rappel during a college pre-game show at the Alamo Dome.
I read the article and it brought something back to me. Here is my response.
Andy,
I looked at the video several times trying to figure out what went wrong. I think he may have had a reversed snap-link. Maybe, maybe not. I just saw his brake hand reaching for the rope. I have seen experienced troops reverse the snap-link. And that's why we double check each other.
Regardless, we teach soldiers to do brave things by doing brave things. The first rappel of a day used to scare the shit out of me. It took everything I had to back over the wall. But once I got the first one done, I would run back up the tower to do it again.
I took over as Chief Instructor of the Jungle School as Just Cause began. Once the fighting was over, we were spinning up to reopen the Jungle Warfare Course. I knew that we were going to be teaching rappelling again. As the Chief Instructor I KNEW I had to do everything I was asking my instructors or the troops to do. Rappelling was one of them. I got up at 0300 one morning. Went to the 50-foot tower we had there right in front of my headquarters building. Opened the rope locker and grabbed a 120 foot rope and inspected it. Twice. Grabbed a sling rope and inspected it. Twice. Grabbed a couple snap-links and inspected them. Twice. Threw the rope over my shoulder and climbed the tower.
At the top I tied off the 120-foot rope and checked the anchor. Tossed the rope down over the side. Tied off my Swiss Seat and hooked the snap-link in. Checked my seat a couple times. Checked to see that the snap-link was attached properly. Twice. Snapped the link over the rope and brought the anchor end around the link and snapped it in. And walked up to the edge of the tower and looked down. And backed away and checked EVERYTHING again. Twice. Turned around and looked at the lights of Colon City across Limon Bay. Beautiful sight. Turned around and walked back to the edge of the tower. Looked down. Stepped back and checked everything again.
Andy, it took me about 30 minutes before I could back up to the edge of the tower and hang my ass over the side. I was trembling like a freakin' leaf. But I got over the edge in a 90-degree set and started to walk down a few steps. After about 10 feet I did a mini-bound. Everything was right. So I walked down a couple stes and did a larger bound.
And the confidence came back. I bounded to the ground and unhooked. And literally ran back up the tower. And checked everything again and hooked back up, backed over the edge and did a three bound drop. Ran back up and did it again. And again.
Would I do a recruiting stunt in front of an audience? Back then, of course I would. Part of the job.
I'm praying for that Airman's family. Air Force PJs are our brothers. Always have been. And we did dangerous things together. Part of the job.
We teach soldiers to be courageous by doing brave things.
And sometimes, no matter what you do and double check, shit happens. Part of the job.
Democrats blaming @SecWar Hegseth is evidence that they have no clue what it takes to wear the uniform.

This is the diseased mind on the right. Yes, we have them too. Unlike the insanity on the left, our nuts come across as reasonable in most circumstances. However, there is nothing reasonable about this take.
He would vote for a drunken Marxist who is fully intent on taking away the liberty of everyday Ohioans before voting for the overwhelmingly elected nominee of the Republicans in Ohio.
There is nothing conservative or Republican in that reasoning. It's self-hating and politically suicidal. Never take political, or, frankly any advise from people like Gardner. He's a loser.

Phobic means “irrational.”
I think Piers Morgan is quickly becoming “realityphobic.”
