I am deeply honored to have been selected as this year’s Grand Marshal of the Veterans Day Parade in Washington, D.C.
Serving my country was one of the greatest privileges of my life. The lessons I learned as a Marine—courage, discipline, leadership, and service—have stayed with me throughout my life.
But this honor isn't about me. It's about the millions of men and women who have worn the uniform, made sacrifices, and defended the freedoms we enjoy today.
To my fellow veterans, thank you for your service. To those who never made it home, we will never forget your sacrifice.
Semper Fi. God bless our veterans. And God bless America. 🇺🇸

It makes zero sense that someone who is fully dependent on the government gets an equal say in how the government spends everyone else's money. If you're on welfare, you shouldn't be voting on policies that fund your lifestyle. It's a massive conflict of interest.

The welfare state is just a breeding farm for entitled, low-IQ freeloaders who have no qualms about stealing your paycheck to pop out the next batch of professional parasites.

Hot take :
If relationships aren't really working out for you
Try other ships like entrepreneurship, partnership, friendship, internship, or even leadership.
And if all of those fail , perhaps take the spaceship and leave this planet entirely

something very fishy is happening in crypto right now.
elon musk just quote tweeted crypto twice.
once to pump it. once to bury it.
12pm: NYSE's owner partners with hyperliquid's biggest builder to bring perps to the US
1pm: billionaire stan druckenmiller makes his first tweet ever. it's about hyperliquid.
4pm: elon quotes him. "interesting"
HYPE +20%. knocking on ATH.
then
7pm: polymarket gets drained
9pm: binance gets drained
up to $5.9B gone. biggest hack in history if confirmed. almost 4x bybit.
withdrawals paused. $1.4B liquidated. BTC under $79k. monero +6%.
11pm: elon quotes it. "everyday is zeroday"
7 hours between the two.
and just like that, nobody's talking about hyperliquid anymore. binance's biggest competitor, gone from the timeline.
all 19 days after the 10/10 anniversary, when $19B got liquidated in a single day.
coincidence?

This might apply to some politicians as well. Their platforms allow sometimes eloquent statements and speeches regarding so-called altruistic movements and policies when in the end they benefit themselves financially. To be able to lie over and over again without remorse is a kind of gift if the goal is self-enrichment. Then it’s merely theft from taxpayers.
BitcoinTESLAlink retweeted
Most peoples’ theory of mind for evil is under-developed
Someone who is willing to steal is willing to lie about why they are stealing
They have no compunction for exploiting the weak mental model of the society they are destroying
The entire “compassion for criminals and fraudsters” psyop has done more damage to the west than you can possibly imagine
We should be far, far more harsh to fraudsters and theives

You’ll never meet a happy socialist.
Socialism is predicated on envy, and envy is one of the deadly sins. And when your worldview is rooted in coveting what others have, but without doing the work to earn it yourself, you will become an angry person. It’s quite simple.
I spoke on a college campus last night. Always a tough place. And in the Q&A, the socialists were just so miserable. Scowl. Sneer. So odd. This is an elite private school. You’re young. You’ve got the world before you- go ahead and change it. But the anger I find so bizarre because it is illogical and unwarranted. These kids are so fortunate and yet they are miserable.
Why? Envy. What they have is not enough. Others have more and it’s not “fair”. And the system doesn’t allow them to just take it, so they want to overthrow the system.
There’s little point in talking to them, tho I think I try and with great kindness. But it’s not politics. It’s not culture. It’s not even Marx or Adam Smith. Definitely not R vs. D. At its core, it’s just the sin of envy. Nothing new under the sun. No need for a deep dive into the mind of Gen Z like they’re this deeply complex and mysterious generation heretofore unexplored by society.
Nope. It’s just envy. And they’re miserable for it. Because sin makes us angry.
It’s… kind of why I’m so damn happy all the time. Hahaha. Truly.

Profesor ekonomii na uniwersytecie stwierdził, że kiedyś oblał całą klasę. Ta klasa upierała się, że socjalizm działa i że nikt nie powinien być biedny, a nikt bogaty, że wszyscy są równi...
Nauczyciel powiedział im: „OK, przeprowadzimy eksperyment z socjalizmem w tej grupie.
Wszystkie oceny będą uśrednione, a każdy dostanie tę samą ocenę, więc nikt nie oblany i nikt nie dostanie 10”.
Po pierwszym teście oceny zostały zsumowane i podzielone przez liczbę studentów, i każdy dostał 8.
Studenci, którzy uczyli się intensywnie, byli zdenerwowani, ale ci, którzy uczyli się mniej, byli zachwyceni.
Gdy zbliżał się drugi test, studenci, którzy wcześniej uczyli się trochę, uczyli się jeszcze mniej, a ci, którzy uczyli się intensywniej, powiedzieli sobie, że oni też chcą „darmowego prezentu”, więc też uczyli się mniej.
Średnia z drugiego testu wyniosła 6.
Gdy przeprowadzono trzeci test, średnia ocena wyniosła 4. Ku wielkiemu zaskoczeniu wszystkich studentów, wszyscy oblali.
Nauczyciel powiedział im, że socjalizm w końcu zawiedzie, ponieważ gdy połowa populacji widzi, że nie musi pracować, bo druga połowa się nimi zajmie, a gdy ta połowa, która pracowała, zdaje sobie sprawę, że nie ma sensu już pracować, bo inni korzystają z ich pracy, to jest koniec każdego narodu.
Ta historia może być bajką, a nie faktem, ale morał jest prawdziwy.

Every word you have ever spoken was a rough copy of what you actually meant.
The thought in your head arrives whole. It has shape, feeling, and a hundred connections all firing at once.
Then you have to squeeze it into a single line of words, one after another, at roughly the speed your mouth can move.
The person listening gets that line and rebuilds the rest from their own experience. What lands in their head is their version of your thought.
That gap is why couples fight over things neither of them said. It is why great teachers are rare, and why an expert can understand something completely and still be unable to explain it.
Language is the most powerful tool our species ever built. We have lived inside its limits for so long that they feel like the shape of thinking itself.
Brain interfaces are starting to test those limits. The first ones already let people who cannot move control a screen with thought alone.
Push that principle far enough and the words in between start to look optional.
A thought could travel the way it exists, all at once, with its shape and feeling intact.
An engineer could hand over the design exactly as they see it. A doctor could share the precise pattern they recognize in a scan, the one they have spent years failing to put into words.
Speech would survive for the same reason people still write letters by hand. It feels human, and some things are meant to be slow.
The bigger shift comes with AI. Machines are learning to think at speeds no keyboard can keep up with, and right now the only channel between us and them is words.
Widening that channel lets people work alongside that intelligence at something much closer to its pace.
Everyone carries a thought they have never managed to put into words. We may be the first people who get to share one anyway.

Elon Musk is warning that the clock is running out:
At most three years remain in which selling your work still earns money. After that, AI handles most tasks, and paying someone for their hours stops making sense.
The deal of the last two centuries, "I give you your salary in exchange for your time", is ending.
He expects it to set off the biggest wealth transfer in modern history. People already moving understand this. People waiting for the headlines will be late.
In the end, what counts is not how many hours you put in. It's what you own.
So the question worth asking now isn't how hard you work. It's what you're building that keeps earning when you stop.
Interested in AI?

IT'S EASY TO BE A SOCIALIST IN AMERICA BECAUSE THERE IS ALWAYS FOOD ON GROCERY STORE SHELVES.
Note to young Democrat Socialists: Socialism sounds good until it's put into practice. Then the horror of the ideology are quickly seen. It's not pretty and saying "socialism has never been done correctly" is just not accurate.
I once met a professor of economics at the University of Texas. He was Russian and was a high level economist who worked in the Politburo during the final days of the Soviet Union.
I asked him if he had believed in socialism/communism while working at high levels in the Soviet Union and why he thought socialism was popular among young Americans. He then said:
"Heaven no! We didn't believe in socialism. The Soviet Union stretched 11 time zones but we could hardly manufacture a light bulb. Why are young Americans attracted to it? It's easy to be a socialist in America because there's always food on the shelves. Socialism did not put that food there."
Young Americans, look at those espousing the joys of socialism in the Democrat Party. You'll see unaccomplished people like Bernie Sanders and AOC who have made their fortunes only by being politicians. Both are multi-millionaires. Bernie has never held a job outside of politics and AOC was a bartender. Bernie and AOC constantly complain about oligarchs while traveling in private jets and staying in 5-star hotels.
Capitalism has been marginalized by corrupt politicians who are owned by huge corporations and lobbyists. We have not experienced free-market capitalism because of the very people you are counting on to give you perfect socialist policies and programs. It's never worked before and won't in the future.
Want to see true socialism/communism? Look in this hemisphere to Cuba and Venezuela. Cuba cannot provide electricity now that their fellow communists funding them have been thrown from control. Food is super scarce. Venezuela was the wealthiest country in South America before communism took over. Even though Venezuela has the world's largest oil reserves and had tremendous wealth, Venezuelans ended up eating zoo animals to live.
People who experience true socialism don't drink $8 Starbucks coffee and write anti-capitalist posts on $3,000 Mac Pro laptops. They are hoping to find something they can eat to survive. Communist North Korea is worse. Citizens there have had to eat their children.
No ideology is perfect but capitalism has raised more people from poverty in world history than any other while socialism has put more people into starvation. Not to mention that communism murdered 100 million of its citizens worldwide in the past century.
You may vote your way into socialism but you will have to fight your way out. Millions have found that out the hard way. Don't be one of them in the future.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 NIV (New International Version)
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
THEIR OWN DESIRES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

a very simple solution to virtually every problem would be to stop allowing people who live off taxpayer money to vote
anyone whose entire livelihood depends on the government taking money from other people will always vote for a government that takes more money
we’ve built a system where people can literally vote to give themselves more of other people’s money
the conflict of interest is beyond ridiculous and if you remove the incentive you remove the problem
The point of no return by Richard von Mises is worth reading:
"A state becomes almost unreformable when the majority of the population is financially or structurally dependent on the state (state employees, civil servants, recipients of subsidies, grants, or transfer payments, etc.). As soon as those who net benefit from or are supported by the state outnumber those who do not, the system blocks reforms, since the majority votes out of self-interest for the preservation or expansion of state services."
Does this sound familiar? Some European countries, France, Belgium, Finland are already way beyond that point, closely followed by Germany, Spain, Austria and Italy. It works for a while, as long as markets buy more sovereign debt at reasonable interest rates. The party ends when they stop though. For France, they stopped this month, Belgium will be next.
The longer the socialist illusion persists, the more painful the inevitable cuts and adjustments will be. It’s pure arithmetic. Good luck Europe, good luck Euro. Buckle up, it won’t be pretty.

Democrats, if you’re wondering why America voted for Trump, allow me to explain:
The truth is, the American People are sick of your shit.
You ruined our nation and our culture. You openly mocked, belittled, and discriminated us, then called us racist, misogynist, Nazis when we started noticing.
You defiled and corrupted all of our great institutions, to include the media, social media, tech, academia, intelligence, health, pharma, Hollywood, entertainment, sports, EVERYTHING! You weaponized every aspect of American life, and used it to push your insane far-Left agenda down our throats.
You told us Trump was a Russian asset that was going to start WW3 and would be worse than Hitler. Then you used that as an excuse to justify hatred towards Trump supporters and to riot in the streets. You used it as an excuse to obstruct and ruin Trump’s entire first term, and it turned out it was all a lie.
Then during Covid, you demanded we all be forced to take medical experimentation without testing. You wanted dissenters locked in prison. You wanted children taken from their anti-vax parents. You wanted the anti-vax in camps. You were rooting for our deaths. Then it turned out you were wrong about everything from the man-made origin, to masks, to vaccines, to social distancing, to ivermectin, to HCQ, to natural immunity, and everything in between.
Then during Ukraine, you told us that Ukraine was a bastion of Democracy, and that they desperately needed all of our tax dollars. Then it turned out that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt nations in the world, with literal Nazi military forces, and it was actually just a money laundering operation to steal from the American taxpayer. You want to defend Ukraine’s borders more than our own. You sent hundreds of billions of dollars on the other side of the planet, while Americans are suffering, all based on more lies.
Then there’s the whole Epstein, Diddy, human-trafficking element. You all told us VEHEMENTLY that human-trafficking was a myth, you told us the border was secure, and you told us that anyone who questioned it was an irredeemable & deplorable conspiracy theorist (and a piece of garbage). You said anyone who watched “Sound of Freedom” was a QAnon extremist and threat to democracy. Then it turned out to be true, and the elites really are engaged in unspeakable crimes against children. After you all told us for decades this was not true. You covered up the most heinous crimes imaginable, for political gain.
I could do this for days, but I think you get the point. The American People are awake to the scam and the true evil going on around us, and we are not going to stand for it anymore. So we hired Donald J. Trump and his team of Patriots to rectify the situation, and bring America back to her greatness.
This is the reality of the situation. You are the bad guys, and you have been deceived. The sooner you wake up to it, the sooner you can join us in repairing this nation. Or you can choose to deny reality, and spend the rest of your lives consumed by hate, based on lies.
The choice is yours.
Signed: A True American Patriot
@realDonaldTrump Thank you for your courage and for standing in the fire for America and all of humanity. God Bless America 🙏🏼🇺🇸
