“My challenge to every American is simple: reject the Left’s victim narrative and do it yourself. Because we will never realize the true potential that this incredible country has to offer—in the land of the free and the home of the brave—if we continue to be shackled by the great myth of government deliverance.”

Husbands who only use their hands or feet are very kind." -Heela (Gopal's female civilian Afghan respondent)”
