Please help me understand why @apple ships with @DHLUS like it’s an ancient side quest in Oregon Trail. My package has apparently traveled by donkey, canoe, and emotional support pigeon before reaching my city. Meanwhile UPS and FedEx are out here teleporting stuff across the country like Avengers-level logistics. DHL tracking updates be like: “Your package has entered a mysterious realm.” Cool cool cool. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Wow!

My crew exposed $100,000,000 in California fraud in one day. But it’s so much darker than stolen taxpayer cash. California is using that money to rig American elections. Here’s How: California leverages their homeless crisis to funnel billions of federal dollars into the state to help homeless Americans. But Whistleblowers tell us 60% of the ‘homeless services’ are actually going to criminal aliens. These illegals live rent-free in long term homeless housing, drive luxury cars and live lavish lifestyles. The shelters guard the criminal aliens from ICE deportations. But why pack your state with homeless illegals? One word: Power. California population loss is set to cost the state major electoral votes in the next election. The only remedy is to pack more bodies into the state ahead of the 2030 census. The census counts persons, not citizens. The federally funded ‘free homeless services’ act as magnets for criminal aliens who fraudulently inflate population numbers. There are 2.5 million illegals in California alone. Finally, California makes it a criminal act to conduct citizenship tests at the shelters, hospitals or the voting booth — and now the fraud is complete. California leaders are trafficking in human misery, intentionally destroying the once great state for power — and using federal tax dollars to do it. This must be stopped. Now. Share this video like wildfire! Americans are getting really sick and tired of watching our hard work and taxes go to pay foreign fraudsters to rig elections for corrupt politicians. If the Trump Administration cut off the funds, the California homeless industrial complex would collapse tomorrow. Time for them to pay.

No more ridiculous DMV “fees” to punish us for driving cars.  We will have the lowest vehicle registration in the country.

The crime and corruption of Gavin Newsom is coming to an end. I'm bringing my handcuffs.

Apple refreshes creative app icons like Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro, and more with the all-new Apple Creator Studio subscription, starting 1.28. I like the new look. What do you think?

MORNING EXPLOSION 💥 : The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory webcam captured a minor explosion at Black Diamond Pool, Biscuit Basin at Yellowstone National Park on December 20.

Interesting

Californians have been charged extra fees on their phone service the last six years to fund a "Next Generation 911 System." Yet after spending $450 million, Newsom just scrapped the whole project because the technology doesn't work. Our government is broken.

Just one of the many reasons California needs a new governor. Let’s vote @ChadBianco into office and make some changes. youtu.be/EXzY1sPM5u8?si=FjBZ…

I’ll be voting @ChadBianco
