McConaughey’s Middle Ground Myth… Apathy Isn’t Patriotism (VIDEO)

Matthew McConaughey’s take on independent voters is completely wrong. In my view, he’s playing the sympathy card, dressing up political indecision as some badge of intellectual superiority.

Give me a break. You don’t get a medal for being unable to make up your mind.

Today on Stinchfield, we expose the independent trap. Calling yourself independent doesn’t make you smarter than everyone who picked a side. Sometimes it means you haven’t done the homework. Sometimes it means you lack the backbone to defend your beliefs. And sometimes you simply don’t care.

None of those deserves applause.

Want credit for thinking for yourself? Tell me what you believe. Defend it. Vote for it. Spare me the smug suggestion that everyone with convictions is a sheep while your indecision makes you a genius.

Two parties. Two starkly different directions for America. What exactly are you still waiting to figure out?

You don’t owe a political party your loyalty. You owe your country enough attention to make a decision and enough courage to own it.

America’s future isn’t a spectator sport. Get informed. Pick a side. Take responsibility.

Waffling isn’t wisdom. Apathy isn’t patriotism. And refusing to take a stand is nothing to brag about.

DESPICABLE: Lowlife Allegedly BEHEADS Historic Statue of Iwo Jima Soldier in Quantico

A Virginia man has been arrested after allegedly getting caught in an incredibly sickening act that betrays those who bled for our country during World War II.

As InsideNoVa.com reported, Prince William County police officers responded to an incident involving the historic Iwo Jima monument in Quantico near Richmond Highway and Fuller Road.

The statue is located roughly two miles from Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia.

Upon arrival, officers found a thug who has since been identified as 27-year-old Miguel Alonso Maldonado Soriano of Stafford.

Police say he was actively damaging the structure using a sledgehammer.

The officers quickly detained Maldonado Soriano.

Police later noted extensive destruction to the monument, including the removal of one of the soldiers’ heads. All told, the damage to the monument is estimated in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

According to InsideNoVa.com, Maldonado Soriano has been charged with the following offenses: felony destruction of property, trespass with intent to damage property, and felony injury to a monument.

Maldonado Soriano is being held without bond. Per WJLA, his court date is pending.

Police have not revealed why Maldonado Soriano decided to attack the monument.

As Patch.com notes, the Iwo Jima statue stands near one entrance to Marine Base Quantico and is a short walk from the National Museum of the Marine Corps. It was carved out of limestone by Felix de Weldon in 1945.

The Quantico statue is one of several smaller-scale statues Weldon created of the scene.

Patch.com also notes that Weldon would recreate the scene as the 100-ton bronze Iwo Jima Monument. This currently sits in front of Arlington National Cemetery.

The Arlington National Cemetery monument was dedicated in 1954.

BOMBSHELL: Ilhan Omar is Not Somali Congresswoman’s Real Name – Every Form She’s Ever Filled Out Could Be “Called into Question,” Former Immigration Judge Says

Rep. Ilhan Omar  Ilhan Nur Said Elmi

Federal sources have revealed to Fox News that “Ilhan Omar” is a fake name used by the Somali Minnesota Congresswoman currently embattled in a federal fraud investigation. 

Her real name is Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, the name of her brother-husband, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, two sources familiar with the ongoing investigation confirmed to Fox.

A former Minnesota federal immigration judge also told the outlet that if it is proven that she lived her “entire life under an alias,” every document she’s ever filled out with the fake name could be “called into question.”

The Gateway Pundit reported yesterday that the Department of Justice revealed in a recent court filing that Omar is identified in the search warrant used to raid her home as “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar.”

The DC US Attorney’s Office further revealed that their extensive search warrant has not yet been fully executed.

NEW: Ilhan Omar Search Warrant Identifies Her by Brother/Husband Name, “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar” – DOJ Reveals Search Warrant Still Not “Fully Executed”

Omar has never publicly said that she does not have a birth certificate and has claimed that it was lost or destroyed during unrest in Somalia. It has been speculated that she had been lying about her age all her life in the United States and used a fake birth date to obtain citizenship, but it appears that’s not all she lied about.

The revelation comes as the feds have obtained “Omar’s” DNA, which could be used to prove that she is living under a false identity and that she married her brother.

Her real identity appears to link her to her former husband through a shared birth name.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Omar sat for her first interview since the raid on her Washington, DC, home last Monday, with MS Now’s Chris Hayes on Wednesday.

During the interview, she was also asked whether her ex-husband was her biological brother, and she gave an insane response, saying, “not to my knowledge.”

Instead of just saying no, she said she isn’t sure. Perhaps we now know why.

Trump Weighs in Amid Reports Justice Department Probing Corey Lewandowski (VIDEO)

Corey Lewandowski

The Justice Department is investigating allegations of ‘pay-to-play’ against Corey Lewandowski, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The investigation stems from a referral from the DHS’s Inspector General claiming that Corey Lewandowski profited from his position at the Department of Homeland Security.

Via The Wall Street Journal:

The Justice Department is examining allegations that Corey Lewandowski profited off his top position at the Department of Homeland Security, people familiar with the matter said.

The inquiry is based on a referral from the DHS inspector general, which shared its findings about Lewandowski’s tenure at the department in recent days, the people said.

The New York Times and CNN also reported that Corey Lewandowski is under investigation.

“Mr. Lewandowski has not been contacted by the Justice Department regarding any investigation, and he denies any wrongdoing when he was proudly serving his country in a voluntary capacity,” Lewandowski’s attorney Adam Trigg told CNN.

President Trump was asked about the DOJ’s probe of Corey Lewandowski as he departed the White House.

“All I know is I want my people to be honest. If they’re not gonna be honest, they have to be prosecuted…if people are not honest, they’re stealing from me, as president,” Trump told reporters on the helipad.

“I want the people that work for this administration to be 100% honest,” Trump said.

WATCH:

President Trump earlier this year fired Kristi Noem as DHS Chief and immediately announced that then-Senator Markwayne Mullin (OK) will become the next Secretary of Homeland Security.

Noem reportedly approved a limited-bid contract and then lied to Congress when she claimed Trump approved the $200 million ads contract.

One of the three firms that was approved was linked to Lewandowski, who is long-rumored to be in a romantic relationship with Noem.

“Noem and Lewandowski were quite aware that the president was not happy with something that Noem said in her testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee, where she was grilled about this $220 million ad campaign featuring her,” CBS reported.

Your Doctor Gave You a Pill for Your Mood, a Pill for the Bedroom – But Didn’t Check Your Testosterone?

(Note: Thank you for supporting businesses like the one presenting a sponsored message below and working with them through the links below which benefits Gateway Pundit. We appreciate your support!)

Two orange pill bottles sit side by side on your kitchen counter, next to the dish where you drop your keys.

One is for your mood. One is for the bedroom. Your doctor wrote both at a quick visit last spring. Nobody checked your testosterone.

You still feel flat most days. You snap at your wife over small things. By supper there’s nothing left in the tank.

You line the bottles back up. Two prescriptions, and no explanation for why you feel this way.

For a lot of men, there is an explanation.

It starts with checking a number.

There is now a way to check it from home. It isn’t available in every state, and the details are below.

Your Gut Was Right

You knew something was off. That’s why you made the appointment with the doctor.

The trouble is how rushed the visit was. A short appointment tends to handle one complaint at a time. The mood gets a pill. The bedroom gets a pill. The whole picture never gets a look.

Men describe the same thing online. One man wrote: “My GP never requested test levels when my bloods were drawn.”

“Others Get Told It’s Just Age”

Dr. Peter McCullough, MD, MPH, of TWC’s Chief Medical Board, has seen this pattern play out. He says:

“Too many men get handed testosterone without a proper test. Others get told it’s just age. Both are guesses… Check your levels first. Then pick the path that fits your numbers and your goals.”

Two pill bottles on the counter are a guess too. The missing piece is your testosterone number.

Every month without it is another month of the same flat afternoons and the same short fuse at supper.

A Check You Can Do at Home

The Wellness Company’s Men’s Hormone Therapy starts with your blood work. Here is how it goes:

  1. Your test kit ships on Day 1 with a prepaid return label.

  2. First thing in the morning, on an empty stomach, you collect a small sample from your upper arm. A small device on your arm does the work, with no needle in the vein and no lab trip. The tube should take about 5 minutes to fill.

  3. You seal it and drop it off at FedEx, Monday through Thursday.

  4. Within 3 days of your lab results, your licensed provider calls to walk through your numbers and your treatment paths.

  5. If treatment is prescribed, your medication ships within 24 hours of that call.

Then every 90 days, you get a new kit, a new check-in, and adjustments as you need them.

No lab visit. No waiting room.

If Treatment Makes Sense

Your provider picks the path based on your labs, symptoms, health history and fertility goals. It may be a daily tablet (enclomiphene with DHEA and zinc), a testosterone cypionate injection on a schedule your provider sets, or both. You don’t need to pick one before you start.

Your provider decides what fits. Enrollment does not guarantee a prescription.

One Price, Everything Included

The plan is about $150 a month, billed $449.99 every 90 days. That covers:

  • At-home lab testing every 90 days

  • Medications formulated for your needs (up to 2)

  • Provider consults

  • Shipping both ways

There are no hidden fees and no membership fee. Your price doesn’t change if your dose does. There’s no long-term commitment, and you can skip or cancel anytime.

Men’s Hormone Therapy isn’t available in 16 states at this time: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and South Carolina.

Stop Guessing.

Picture those two orange bottles on the counter again. They’ve been handling the mood and the bedroom. Nobody has looked at the one number that could tie it all together.

You can fix that. When you order the check, you start the 90-day plan: $449.99 every 90 days, which works out to about $150 a month. That covers your labs, your provider consults, up to 2 medications if they’re prescribed, and shipping both ways. No long-term commitment. Skip or cancel anytime.

Your kit ships on Day 1. One morning, about five minutes, and your sample is on its way to the lab.

Order your at-home testosterone check »

Another year of running on empty is a year you don’t get back.

Get your number. Then decide what to do about it.

Calley Means, Key WH Health Advisor, Resigns

Calley Means, a senior advisor to Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., resigned from his position Thursday. In a post on X announcing his departure, Means wrote that he retained “tremendous respect for President Trump and Bobby Kennedy,” who “laid out a vision of combating the entrenched, dark forces in DC that profit from Americans getting sick.” He also touted his work on policies including “Dietary Guidelines reform, psychedelic reform, removing soda from SNAP, removing food dyes, GRAS reform, and overhauling government food procurement.”

Means first gained prominence as an advocate for the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement. He was involved in the 2024 presidential campaigns of both RFK, Jr. and Donald Trump, and reportedly played a key role in brokering a political alliance between the two men. (His sister, Casey Means, is also a well-known figure in the MAHA movement, and was tapped for the post of surgeon general before her nomination was withdrawn earlier this year.)

Although Means did not give a reason for resigning, sources close to him attributed the decision to frustration with delays on advancing MAHA priorities. As one health influencer reportedly close with Means told the New York Times: “It became very clear in the last few months that no progress was getting made. And when you’re spinning around in circles, you can only take so much.”

O’Keefe Media Group Confronts Abdul El-Sayed About Foreign Donations to His Campaign (VIDEO)

The O’Keefe Media Group confronted Michigan’s radical Muslim Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed about foreign donations to his campaign on Wednesday.

OMG confronted Abdul El-Sayed at Wednesday night’s senate debate in Michigan against GOP candidate Mike Rogers.

“One of your campaign staffers said that you illegally take foreign donations. Is that true?” an OMG journalist asked El-Sayed.

“No,” El-Sayed said as he ignored a follow up question asking why the staffer made the claim.

WATCH:

The O’Keefe Media Group on Monday released an undercover video of a campaign official for Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed admitting that El-Sayed knowingly receives illegal donations from overseas.

Foreign nationals are prohibited from making campaign contributions.

“You know, he [Abdul El Sayed] has people from overseas that donate to him,” Abdul Beckwith, Regional Field Organizer for Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign, said.

When asked whether overseas donations were prohibited, Beckwith responded, “No, it is not allowed,” before describing a hypothetical arrangement in which overseas money passes through a family member.

Beckwith said, “And then people overseas give money to him. And then he gives money to you. It’s that type of thing.”

He then added, “Everybody does it!”

Later Monday, El-Sayed’s camp said Beckwith has never been employed by the Abdul for Senate campaign.

Things got heated when James O’Keefe confronted Beckwith.

“I don’t give a f*ck who you are, bro!” Beckwith said to James O’Keefe.

Iran War Day 237: U.S., Israel Planning to Resume Strikes in November, Per Report

The New York Times reported Wednesday that American and Israeli war-planners are preparing to resume active strikes on Iran following the November 3 U.S. midterm elections.

The report, citing anonymous officials, noted that President Donald Trump had ordered and canceled fresh strikes a number of times. Per the Times, the new plans focus on Iran’s nuclear program and energy infrastructure, but avoid striking refineries and oil infrastructure.

Some believe the action may come sooner. An Iranian official told Drop Site News that the Islamic Republic anticipates renewed fighting perhaps even before the October 27 Israeli parliamentary elections. The White House denied planning such strikes in a comment to Drop Site. 

Axios reported Wednesday that the Israeli Air Force has been conducting aggressive maneuvers near Iranian airspace. The State Department spokesman Tommy Piggott said Wednesday on X that the U.S. was evacuating nonessential personnel from American diplomatic posts in Saudi Arabia because of the threat of Houthi strikes. In the same post, he denied reports of a broader evacuation from regional embassies and consulates.

Iran has continued its operations in the Persian Gulf, claiming strikes on four tankers in a Thursday statement. Brent crude opened at $110. AAA reported a national average price per gallon of $4.27 for regular gas and $6.31 for diesel.

Spoiled NBA Leftist Brat Lebron James Gets Caught Performing a Disrespectful Act During the National Anthem – Trump Responds with FIRE (VIDEO)

Screenshot of LeBron James via Pat McAfee Show

The NBA’s most notorious athlete has sparked an uproar after people saw what he did during America’s National Anthem.

Philadelphia 76ers forward and liberal brat Lebron James led his new team to a 106-100 win against the defending NBA champion New York Knicks on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.

The was the first game of the season for both teams.

James scored 14 points in the contest, a respectful performance for a nearly 42-year-old man.

But what he did before game was anything but respectful and was caught on tape.

Instead of standing and facing the flag with his hand over his heart, James apparently thought it was a good time to start practicing his golf swing and free throw motion.

What a spoiled, ungrateful athlete.

WATCH:

Trump absolutely went off on James’s disrespectful act on Truth Social on Thursday, calling him a “TOTAL DISGRACE” and to apologize for his action.

“While listening to our National Anthem, LeBron James disrespects our Country!” Trump wrote. “I said right from the beginning that he’s no good, a TOTAL DISGRACE.”

“LeBron James should apologize to all of those Great American Warriors and Heroes who died for the American Flag, and all that our Country stands for!”

There is no lost love between James and Trump.

James has consistently bashed over Trump over the years, including calling him a “bum” and accusing him of trying to create a racial divide in America.

James also previously endorsed every Democratic presidential nominee running against Trump, including Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris.

The NBA has fallen a long way since the days of Michael Jordan, and James is a perfect example why.
