“I don’t want to understand them—I want to punish them.”
That line hit me hard.
But here's the truth:
If we refuse to understand before we punish, we don't want justice—we want wrath.
And wrath, burns everything.
This might be the most important thing I’ve written. Link below.
Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine.
In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted.

New Ipsos/@AEI survey:
80% view affordably priced starter homes as an important priority.
74% support more homes near shops, restaurants & jobs.
64% want new neighborhoods with smaller lots.
58% support duplexes & townhomes in existing single-family neighborhoods.
It's not really about the $28 for lunch. Millennials & Gen Z are standing at a fork in the road. Keep living in the managed, credentialed, risk-averse world prior generations us or reclaim the traditions that built the West.
Few things in Washington are more predictable than Congress renewing surveillance powers and promising to reform them later.
I spoke on the House floor against the “temporary” clean reauthorization of the unconstitutional FISA 702 program.
A clip of Kevin O'Leary telling a young worker not to spend $28 on DoorDash made the rounds for the last few weeks with the whole familiar fight in the comments.
Ungrateful young people on one side. Out-of-touch boomers on the other. Everyone feeling righteous. Nobody getting anywhere.
And while this fight goes on, the machinery that priced a generation out of its own country goes on humming in the background — completely untouched, exactly as it has for the last hundred years.
New episode. 👇
Your grandparents bought a house like this on one income. They just needed a job and savings.
Today the same house is illegal to build in this neighborhood — and in most neighborhoods.
Planning commissions decided modest homes were a problem. Minimum lot sizes. Setback rules. Parking mandates.
The American Dream isn't dead. It's being blocked.
“If you require minimum lot sizes and large setbacks, you have to put big houses on big lots. They cost more [to build] and they’re more difficult to afford.” - @GovGianforte (Montana)
They told you to work harder, save more, and make better choices.
You did, but the calculator still says no.
The permission system rigged it upstream — to protect man-made scarcity.
The American Dream isn't dead. It's being blocked.
Lindsey Graham has spent years supporting an interventionist foreign policy and backing U.S. involvement in endless overseas conflicts. Now, he is facing a challenge in the GOP primary from @MarkLynchSC, who is campaigning to unseat one of America's most prominent war hawks.
As frustration with foreign wars and influence continues to grow, not just in South Carolina but across the country, this race is becoming a referendum on the future direction of the Republican Party.
I sit down with Mark Lynch to discuss where he stands, why opposition to foreign intervention is gaining momentum, and how concerns about Israel’s influence in American politics are increasingly becoming part of the national conversation across both parties.
I had been planning to record an episode on “Peaceful Parenting” with Henri Pellerin from @libertyportal for a while, and this New York Post article about Gen Z parents spanking their kids took over X. I had him on to make the case. The episode drops at 7:30 PM MT and is linked in the comments
California doesn’t actually need to take 500 years to rebuild the Palisades; with this one policy change, they can shorten the timeframes to obtain a certificate of occupancy. But it will require CA politicians and bureaucrats to give up some of their control.
This nigga is 🔥🔥🔥
He inspires me with joy and hope, which is especially timely bc my little DS baby is 6 weeks old. God is so good and I love this dude
