I’m Japanese.
After seeing Paris,
I came to the conclusion that diversity is bullshit.

You stood with Palestinians as they massacred us.
You recognized a Palestinian state, knowing full well its only purpose is our destruction.
Now they came to you, burning down your cities.
Zero sympathy for you.
You reap what you sow.

Brockton, Massachusetts is energized for a new kind of Commonwealth that moves forward for all! 🇺🇸
16 days until Election Day and we just getting started. It’s time to elect State Treasurer who is committed to transparency. On day-1 I will launch an independent outside audit of all 13 Treasury departments. You deserve transparency! #mapoli #dionne4treasurer #taxpayerstreasurer #brocktonma #elizabethdionne

We're better off as a society if we don't livestream executions. But there's one livestream we really do need - can we please all watch Ilhan Omar's deportation?

NYT: nothing. WSJ: nothing. The Atlantic: nothing. CNN: nothing. MSNBC: nothing.
A $2 billion, 40-year Massachusetts courthouse lease goes to a congresswoman's husband who did 10 years in federal prison for drug trafficking and just weeks ago an 18-year-old was shot dead in the head in a house he owns, and the homicide still has no arrests...
The entire national press has nothing to say.
If this were a Republican, it would be wall-to-wall coverage every single day until the midterms.
Massachusetts Gov. Healey (D) awarded a $2 billion, 40-year lease for a new courthouse to Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s (D) husband, a convicted felon who spent 10 years in federal prison for drug trafficking.
A couple of weeks ago, a girl was found dead with a gunshot wound to the head in a home owned by Pressley’s husband.

I am facing issues that are really weighing on me heavily. I used to think the world was entertaining. It now just seems like a total shit show.
They are still vaccinating kids with lethal shit. Pharma still tries to find good drugs but will market bad ones. Those marketing SNRIs and SSRIs should be tried for mass murder. Addictions to these drugs are worse than heroin addictions. While on this topic, Fauci should be taken to the Hague.
Boys are still beating up girls in girls sports. What kind of psychopath supports this crap? Where were the women during this story? Why didn't you shut this shit down? You think you are feminists. Where are you when it counts?
I thought the kids on campus were looking healthy. But then I realized that it is the influence of social media. One girl told me that friends are taking Ozempic. What looked like good health may be poor mental health. It is Generation Anorexia (Gen A).
People complain about taxes while being too stupid to recognize it is the spending not the taxing. We spent all our money killing millions of innocents in the Middle East for no apparent reason. The most grounded leader in the world right now is Vlad Putin. Bring on your criticisms you fuckwads, but I am right, and it is appalling.
I got attacked last year for quoting George Patton. You know who you are. You can eat shit. We can't oppose the war in Iran without being called antisemites. Militant Zionists are the cause of rising antisemitism.
Even if AI doesn't destroy civilization and even if it does a lot of good, it is still gonna suck. Articles about this shit show are put out by lazy people using AI, making them soul-free crap. I cannot stand reading AI written articles. If you are writing articles using AI you are irrelevant. Your graphics are total shit, because you used a machine that has no idea what is needed to capture and retain my attention.
I used to enjoy writing about the world, and now I have no interest in competing against the tsunami of retarded shit writing about topics that are retarded shits. I think this is why I like podcasts: they are people at least...unless they are AI generated.

Politics are already too angry.
Dan Koh has embraced the language of “fighting” the Trump administration.
My approach is different. My priority will always be the needs of MA-06, regardless of who is in the White House or which party controls Congress.
I’ll work with anyone when it benefits the District, and I’ll disagree when necessary.

The 12-year incumbent is launching ads with A.I. and paid actors. Meanwhile taxpayers are struggling to afford basic needs to live and raise a family.
Our campaign for a Taxpayers’ Treasurer has always been about you, the taxpayers. I’ve been crisscrossing this beautiful state and hearing your concerns. You deserve a State Treasurer who is present, not in her 3rd home in Palm Beach. You deserve a State Treasurer who’s focused on solutions on affordability and transparency, not only after 12 years in office.
Vote for change on November 3rd! Vote Elizabeth Dionne! #mapoli #dionne4treasurer #taxpayerstreasurer #elizabethdionne #votedionnema

Do boomers remember the prime interest rate reaching
21 percent in 1980? Gas lines? Working our asses off to get ahead?

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.
Deport him and you never have to feed him again! 😎

I understand that the social security conversation is political poison. But I’m not running for office so I don’t care about that. Taking huge chunks out of the paychecks of young working Americans in order to pay for the retirements of older Americans who have a net worth several times higher, all to prop up a system that everyone knows likely won’t be there when those younger people are retirement age themselves, is morally abhorrent and economically insane. Everyone knows it, too, but we’re held hostage by elderly politicians who refuse to surrender power, and older voters who, as a group (with exceptions, obviously), simply don’t care all that much about the financial and cultural future their grandchildren will inherit.

Belgium is reversing course on nuclear.
Decommissioning has been halted.
The government has signed a letter of intent with Engie for a full state takeover of the nuclear fleet.
For years, Belgium followed the green script. They shut reliable nuclear. Bet on weather-dependent power. And increased reliance on imports.
Now reality has intervened.
Prime Minister Bart De Wever says Belgium wants safe, affordable, sustainable energy with less dependence on foreign supply -- which raises the obvious question, why was that not Belgium's policy all along?
Nuclear was always the sane option. Dense power. Low carbon. Dispatchable. Domestic control. It works when wind drops. It works when the sun sets. It works when gas prices spike.
Belgium is not "transitioning." It is backing away from a big mistake. Europe, it appears, is finally waking up to the green folly.
