We're America Because of Meritocracy

Are you noticing America's "can-do" spirit is waining? It's on purpose, of course.

What a great night last night with Sebastian Gorka at Cigar Republic in Philadelphia last night! Thanks to those of you who made the trip! Met many Harrumphers last night! Were you one? Let me know what you thought/observed/heard below in the comments. I’ll see if I can snag a streaming version of the conversation for everyone to hear here soon. In the mean time, here’s a couple of pictures…

Today’s Monologue

Please allow me the license to paraphrase — not 100% Biden-level plagiarize— a dream: 

I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.… I have a dream that my fellow Americans will once again live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, their party affiliation, or their Deep State connections but by the content of their character, their skills, and their merit. I have a dream that one day, right here in America, we will all live in a color-blind meritocracy. We will all compete freely and equally in the arena of ideas!
