Ilhan Omar coming into the United States as a ‘refugee’ daughter of a Somalian military officer implicated in mass murder, and then exploiting her diaspora ‘community’ (a scam culture) for political power… There is a comic novel here. Vanity Fair of the 21st century.

Out now! The lie that Jeffrey Epstein ran a sexual-blackmail operation for Israeli intelligence has convinced millions of Americans that their leaders are compromised and their wars are fought on Israel’s orders. In The Epstein Conspiracy, David Reaboi, a longtime writer on political warfare and information operations, shows that Russia very likely manufactured, laundered, and activated it as information warfare. Its real target is America’s capacity to reason about its own national interests.

Government spending in France is a greater percentage of GDP than it was in the Soviet Union. There is no neoliberalism in France. There is no austerity. If that’s your explanation of the riots then you know nothing, understand nothing.
Reactionaries more concerned with old buildings on fire than the disintegration of the social order under their beloved neoliberalism.

Anthropic
@AnthropicAI23h
We’re committing a portion of Anthropic’s shares to the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund, a new wholly owned entity dedicated entirely to the public benefit. It will start off with 5% of our shares. For every 50% increase in the company’s value over a set baseline, we can contribute up to an extra 2%, subject to our board’s discretion. In total, this means that roughly 20% of Anthropic’s shares are committed to the public good. Our co-founders have already pledged to donate 80% of their equity, and around half our employees are donating a portion of their equity as part of a donation matching program we’ve run since our founding. In the post below, we share more details about our new fund. anthropic.com/news/public-be…

Let me tell you something, senator, if you attempt to imprison Americans based on their support for the president and their political activity, you’ll be facing unrelenting litigation.  I can assure you of this.  You don’t own our country. You don’t own our justice system.

Imagine growing up seeing the demopublican government uniparty be utterly incompetent for your entire life, unable to build new energy, exporting factories, failing over and over at its ambitions in space, becoming bigger and more bloated and slower year after year until it threatens to eat the entirety of the U.S. economy, with the same geriatric 90 year olds piddling away the future year after year Then suddenly you have an administration which accepts a flood of young people in government at every level, from the lowest bureaucrats to the halls of the White House There is fierce debate and plenty of conflict, but there are also motions in policy which we've only dreamed of for decades. Five nuclear reactors turn on under the DOE after decades of stagnation. America returns to orbit the moon Imagine seeing that and the reaction of a sitting senator is “haha yeah let’s put those fuckin kids in jail to make an example!!”

we're basically in a civil war. their plan: -censorship and mute RW social media (meta defeated, thanks elon) -lawfare to arrest/harass undesirables (countless) -influencers to normalize violence (hassan) -DDOS violence (antifa, assassins) to kill if necessary (kirk, thompson)
How is it ok for a US Senator to say this?

The spells were already spent back in 2024, but there are still little fringe pockets on X hoping they can conjure another magic cancelation. Maybe if they chant "racist" or "fascist" a little louder than last time, the good old days of 2020 will return? world.hey.com/dhh/the-spells…

Saying “the quiet part out loud.” As we’ve covered extensively for like 5 years now, people working against the Republican Party, but for BASED reasons, are contributing to an environment meant to secure complete leftist domination. Your shitty Rumble podcast where you GO OFF about how personally upset you are with the delta value between what is and what ought to be will be fine. The guys with skin in the game — for shit pay, by the way — won’t be. There will be significant professional, social, and even legal consequences. When the left feels threatened, they destroy your reputation with the media, prosecute you, kill you or at least try, etc. If the left were actually threatened by these people, I promise you’d know it. Instead, the left promotes these people and compliments their “integrity,” etc. You would have to be a total idiot to fall for this. As I said a year ago, if the Charlie Kirk assassination wasn’t enough for you to “get it,” then you never will and I genuinely think you should take up sports betting or watching entire-series loops of The Office. You’re too dumb to work with.

I put $50,000 on this thing 18 months ago. Not knowing it was going to fucking fly! When it was already years "late". Because investing in whatever Elon does next is not just a great bet, but the most inspiring and fun one too.
He really did it. He built a fucking flying car.

Balanced piece by Judge: the civil service is 12% smaller, cuts to grants far less steep than even I had hoped, but done well overall. "By most indications, the federal government is running much as it did before. Some critics may have to admit: the DOGE workforce cuts worked."
DOGE worked. Most importantly, the civil service is 12% smaller than it was in Jan 2025. In the Fall @CityJournal, I show they were not replaced by contractors, the biggest cuts were to middle managers, and the predictions of disaster were proven false. city-journal.org/article/dog…

We're live at @petersonacademy. C'mon over and check it out.
Dr. C. Bradley Thompson's course: The Intellectual Origins of the American Revolution, is available now. In this course, @CBradleyThomps1 traces America’s journey from imperial crisis to independence. We explore the bold ideas of thinkers including Franklin, Hamilton, Adams, Jefferson, and Paine, the conflicts over British taxation and representation, and fierce patriot–loyalist debates over natural rights, liberty, and the limits of government. The course culminates in an examination of the Declaration of Independence and written constitutions, illuminating the Revolution’s enduring promise: a nation where liberty, equality, and individual rights shape the possibilities of human life.

We are entering a second decade of people telling me this is patently illegal and the easy-to-win lawsuits will soon bring it to a halt
1) Just got back from my son’s career fair at his school. When he asked if they held any unpaid internships that he could apply to for some experience, he was told by 3 out of the first 4 people we spoke to, they don’t accept applications from “people like him” as they only ….

Do you hate fraud? If so, I’m calling on you to join me in taking the pledge to protect Americans from fraudsters, by doing everything in your power to ensure that: 1. Vulnerable Americans, such as the elderly, indigent, and disabled, are protected from fraudsters who seek to prey on them. 2. Taxpayer-funded programs serve law-abiding Americans, not illegal aliens or fraudsters. 3. Taxpayer-funded benefits are not used by fraudsters to buy mansions or luxury cars. 4. Public agencies and officials work tirelessly and aggressively, coordinating at all levels of government, to stop fraud before payments go out the door. 5. Fraudsters face justice for their crimes in a court of law. Convicted fraudsters will be imprisoned and barred from ever receiving another penny of taxpayer dollars. 6. Illegal alien fraudsters are promptly arrested, prosecuted, imprisoned, and deported, never able to take advantage of Americans’ generosity again.
