Lord, It Belongs Not to My Care
βLord, it belongs not to my care whether I die or live; to love and serve Thee is my share, and this Thy grace must give. If life be long, I will be glad that I may long obey; if short, yet why should I be sad to welcome endless day?
Christ leads me through no darker rooms than He went through before; he that unto Godβs kingdom comes must enter by this door. Come, Lord, when grace hath made me meet Thy blessΓ¨d face to see; for if Thy work on earth be sweet, what will Thy glory be!
Then I shall end my sad complaints and weary sinful days, and join with the triumphant saints that sing my Saviorβs praise. My knowledge of that life is small, the eye of faith is dim; but βtis enough that Christ knows all, and I shall be with Him.β β Richard Baxter

There was a +13D swing amongst young white men since the 2024 election.
Yes, importing millions of immigrants is obviously the number one problem weβre facing as a culture at the moment, but it was not the primary cause of our loss here.
"We mass imported a population from cultures that are diametrically opposed to the United States."
@JohnDoyle, @NickJFreitas, and @AuronMacintyre break down the impact that demographic changes and immigration have on the outcome of elections:

I want to give you some encouragement.
More people attended Bible study tonight than usual.
I told them we would debrief yesterday afterwards.
I invited some of the lone @CTGOP legislators to survive in Connecticut to come as well.
They did. We are going to rebuild.

This is a superb time to support your local classical Christian school and homeschool co-ops that wish to return to biblical authority and Western tradition. This is covenantal work, and we must be prepared to play the long game.

In a sane country, this man would be president
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis:
Some of these Republicans are saying, "Oh, well, the gas, don't worry. It's no big deal." Or they're trying to blame Biden.
No, no. Listen, we've just got to be honest. Gas is higher. It hurts people, working-class people, and it's higher because of the Iran conflict.
That's just the fact. If you can't admit that to voters, then you're gaslighting them, and they're not going to listen to you on other things.

Thereβs no way to soft pedal this. Itβs a political catastrophe of historic proportions. The Republican Party needs all new leadership. None should be spared from blame, starting at the top.

If results in Florida don't convince you that DeSantis is pretty much the only strategic route forward for American conservatism, I'm not really sure what to say.
Also, Vance is dead in the water after tonight. Guilt by association to Trump. If he runs, he loses.
And I think he may be smart enough to know that.

With the loss of governors races in Texas, Ohio and Georgia, there will be only one state of the top ten most populous states with a Republican governor:
Florida.

Ron DeSantis made Florida so red that it withstood the Iran War dooming the Midterms.
