Worth a read. Bernard Arnault responds to the press.
@X has shifted the balance of power away from the media and back to the people.
Thank you

One of the most important speeches you will hear this year on why we are at war with Iran.
Worth five minutes of your time.
The New York City mayor’s first responsibility is keeping New York City residents safe.
Less than 24 hours after
@NYCMayor Mamdani falsely accused Israel of genocide, his words were successful in inspiring violence against Jews in New York City, as predicted by many.
Mamdani is highly intelligent. He had to have known that his words were extremely dangerous and would inspire violence, but he spoke them anyway.
Mayor Mamdani, what do you have to say to those that have been harmed because of your words?
What do you have to say to the victims’ families and to Jews in NY who are now afraid to wear symbols of their religious beliefs?
What are you going to do about it?

I just read through the DSA's new platform.
It is the most utopian/dystopian, bat-sh*t insane thing I have ever read.
It includes:
1. No more bills for anyone
2. Government-run food, housing, medicine, transportation, and nationalizing all other large corporations and essential industries
3. The drafting of a “new constitution”
4. Defunding the Department of War
5. Slavery reparations
6. Unlimited free abortion and “gender-affirming care” for all, including minors
7. Have taxpayers pay off everyone’s entire student debt & fund unlimited “free” higher education for all
8. Taking “steps toward fully abolishing the police and prison system”
9. Ending ALL deportations, providing amnesty for ALL illegal immigrants, and allowing unlimited migration to America
10. Abolish the Presidency, Supreme Court, and Senate
Other than that, their plans seem super realistic, practical, and not at all naive, revolutionary, or dystopian.

We need a 3rd option.
If we allow partially-stolen, subsidized, cheap Chinese AI to grab the American user base, we will be repeating the mistakes made 25 years ago with our manufacturing base that will take 10 more years to fix. Chinese theft, subsidies and dumping are a state playbook for economic warfare we should no longer accommodate.

Our hearts are heavy today for 19-year-old Pvt. Isabella Gonzales of Carrollton, Texas. This brave young soldier was killed Friday in Iranian missile and drone attacks on a U.S. base in Jordan.
At just 19, she selflessly answered the call to defend our nation. Her courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
Sending deepest condolences and prayers to her family, friends, and all who loved her. May God wrap you in comfort and grant her eternal peace.
Thank you for your service, Isabella. You are a true hero. 🇺🇸

Imagine if New Yorkers had a mayor who cared more about New Yorkers than a tiny country in the Middle East he’s never lived in, was never born in, and has no ethnic ties to.
Nice side benefit of self driving cars: trial lawyers are defunded and we can have more peace and better billboards.
Mark Ruffalo earned roughly $50 million playing a green rage monster for Disney, and he spends his downtime demanding the state confiscate your savings. You have watched him do it. In 2019 he tweeted that capitalism is "failing us" and called for an "economic revolution." This from a man whose entire fortune exists because millions of people voluntarily bought movie tickets.
The cuckoldry, in the precise economic sense: he sold his labor on one of the freest markets on earth, Hollywood, at prices no bureaucrat set, then begged the apparatus of coercion to punish everyone else who tries the same.
Take his fracking crusade. Ruffalo campaigned for years against natural gas extraction in New York, and Andrew Cuomo banned it in 2014. Result: upstate landowners lost billions in forgone royalties, and New Yorkers now import gas from Pennsylvania, where the drilling happens anyway. Ruffalo kept the view from his Sullivan County property pristine. You paid for it.
Mises named this type in The Anti-Capitalistic Mentality back in 1956: the resentful intellectual who mistakes his personal guilt for a social theory. Ruffalo feels bad about his mansion, so you must surrender your paycheck. He endorsed Bernie Sanders in 2016 and again in 2020, backing wealth taxes that would gut a family machine shop in Ohio while barely grazing Hollywood royalty streams structured by tax attorneys.
Call it hypocrisy and you undersell it. Advocacy costs him nothing and buys enormous status among the people who make casting decisions. He spends your economic freedom to purchase his own absolution. We have a term for that kind of arrangement: seigniorage of the soul. He prints virtue, and you eat the devaluation.

Meanwhile, in Austin, years of allowing a fck ton of housing to be built have left landlords desperate to fill units, and rents are falling as a result
The most utterly depressing part about NYC’s housing crisis (and the tsunami of human suffering it has unleashed) is that it’s almost entirely a policy choice

🚨 I won't be gentle here because we have an extremely small window to stop this godforsaken foreign invasion of taxpayer-funded terror supporters.
See this asshole on the right with the spectacles? The one holding hands with Hamas's former leader, Ismail Haniyeh, on the left?
That's Georgetown professor Badar Khan Suri. He's from India. He's not a citizen of the United States. Let me say that again: HE IS NOT A CITIZEN.
One more time: HE IS NOT A CITIZEN.
@SecMullinDHS
He was arrested by ICE for alleged ties to Hamas and promoting their propaganda immediately after Oct 7. He was released by one of Biden's commie judges.
He's the son-in-law of a former Hamas official.
He's still at Georgetown University. He's still operating on our soil. He travels the country speaking at events trashing America and lying about ICE.
This is the definition of a foreign influence operation.
Georgetown was handed $640 MILLION in federal funding last year. YOUR FEDERAL TAX DOLLARS are supporting this.
I don't know WTH the Trump administration is doing, but I know what they're NOT doing.
Get this terror-supporter away from American students.

This has received no coverage in the mainstream media. No condemnations from political leaders or celebrities. Where are the protests?

Mamdani's New York: West Side Homeless Camp Stretching 12 Blocks Now Allegedly Stealing City Power
While the world watches the war, the Islamic Republic of Iran hanged a 19-year-old boy today.
His name is Erfan Esfandiari and he was his parents' only child.
He did not kill anyone. He did not carry a weapon. His crime, according to the Islamic Republic, was opening a door. Sheltering protesters who were running from security forces. That was enough to send him to the gallows.
Erfan was one of 12 young men in the Alikhani Square case in Isfahan, arrested during the January 2026 uprising. Yesterday, all 12 were moved to quarantine. Today, the Islamic Republic hanged him.
This is a government that is so terrified of a generation that refuses to be silent, that it executes teenagers for the act of compassion.
Say his name. Because the regime is already trying to erase him. Because his mother and father are left with nothing, not even the right to grieve loudly.

To argue that Yang Zhilin went back to China because it was easier to start an AI company and raise funds there is ludicrous.
You think American VCs wouldn’t fund a superstar AI researcher with a PhD from Carnegie Mellon and a degree from Tsinghua? Look at his rockstar background below.
Let’s take away all immigration friction pretense. Why not do everything we can to make it easier and retain superstar talent? Staple green cards to the top 10 AI computer science PhD degrees NOW. Carnegie Mellon, MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, etc. It would be a massive success.
The USA can run the table on global AI talent. We just need to use our brains.
