I know how Elon Musk became a trillionaire, but I don't know how Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Nancy Pelosi became millionaires.

It turn out that when a country removes fraud and waste from government expenditures, the budget can be balanced and deficits erased.
For the first time in 123 years, Argentina has achieved a sustained fiscal surplus without being in default. We are one of only 5 countries in the world in this position. LONG LIVE FREEDOM, DAMN IT...!!!

Here we go, the Los Angeles Times is admitting that yes, tens of thousands of mail in ballots did get processed for only Mayor Karen Bass and Nithya Raman but it was “a glitch” They say the system just “glitched” for a minute and didn’t process any ballots for Spencer Pratt but really there were ballots for Spencer, they just didn’t get processed during the “glitch” No, we don’t believe you. This is fraud and Democrats are cheating “It was the result of a lag in an automated collection of the data in which there was one data collection that captured votes in a single batch of votes for Bass and Raman, and then about 1 minute later, the collection of the rest of that same batch of votes — Folks I spoke to also said there is no fraud. But again, there was no batch of votes without any Pratt votes. There was sort of a 1-minute variation between the upload of Bass and Raman votes and Pratt votes on some media websites. Officials and others who have reviewed the data say that is not any proof of fraud. There was no fraud.” Again, yeah right. We need a federal audit into California elections

Milton Friedman's greatest regret. The federal government discovered the perfect crime in 1943: make employers collect taxes before workers ever see their paychecks. You think you earn $60,000 per year, but you actually earn $75,000 and hand over $15,000 to politicians without ever touching it. The psychological difference is enormous. Before payroll withholding, Americans wrote quarterly checks directly to the Treasury. Picture yourself sitting at your kitchen table, writing a $3,750 check to the IRS every three months. The pain was immediate and visceral. Politicians faced constant pressure to justify every dollar because citizens felt the extraction in real time. Withholding transforms this concrete loss into an abstract accounting entry. Your employer becomes an unpaid tax collector, and you never experience the actual cost of government. Worse, most people celebrate their tax refunds as government generosity rather than recognizing them as interest-free loans they provided to politicians. The Treasury collects your money throughout the year, spends it immediately, then returns your own cash and receives gratitude. This system enables the explosion in government spending you witness today. Defense contractors billing $640 for toilet seats, agricultural subsidies for corn syrup, and congressional salaries for 535 people who rarely show up to work. When taxation feels painless, voters stop demanding accountability for how their money gets spent. Milton Friedman helped design withholding as a wartime emergency measure and later called it his greatest regret. Free market economists recognized that the psychological pain of direct taxation creates political pressure for fiscal restraint. The temporary always becomes permanent in government hands, and the emergency justification disappears while the extraction mechanism remains forever.

I’m not a big election fraud guy - but the 24,000 ballot drop showing Spencer Pratt didn’t receive a single vote, is just not realistically possible. Irreducible error rate is even more prevalent when functional literacy of LA is 50%.

🚨 WOW! It's just been revealed that fraudsters' assets have been SEIZED by law enforcement, this CBS reporter noticed that the warehouse is filled with MERCEDES and luxury vehicles Exact thing Nick Shirley found! A fraudster pleaded GUILTY to submitting over $270 MILLION in the state's Medicaid program, and was paid $170M FA US ATTORNEY ESSAYLI: "What's most egregious about this is it was basically no questions asked. He basically exploited a loophole in the state's processing system." CBS: "That loophole court records show meant healthcare providers got reimbursed for prescription drugs that were not medically necessary and often not even given to patients." Allowing fraud is a betrayal of all American citizens.

I am done with the Republican Party. Between this and Thune’s refusal to pass the SAVE Act, I’m done with these uniparty traitors. I’m changing my party affiliation to Independent. No wonder President Trump is fighting an uphill battle every day.
WOW 🚨 The Republican Party is protecting Ilhan Omar from accountability Rep Nancy Mace “I tried to subpoena her immigration records, her brother husband's immigration records, and IT WAS REPUBLICANS that killed my motion” It’s a Uniparty. One Big Club.

The absolute and transparent violation of justice in the E. Jean Carroll case is so patently obvious that I struggle to understand how even the most vehement Trump haters could believe the verdict, or fail to be horrified by what a mockery of our entire legal system it made. I’m not sure there’s ever been a court case in America that was more transparently rigged for political purposes. One of the most corrupt things I’ve ever seen.

The E. Jean Carroll case against President Trump is one of the strangest civil cases in American history. The foundational problem is this: Carroll could not identify when the alleged incident occurred — not even the year with any precision. That should have killed the case as dead as a skunk on the road right there. Without a temporal anchor, no defendant — regardless of guilt or innocence — can mount an alibi defense. Trump, who has maintained detailed calendars and staff records for decades, was denied the most basic tool of self-defense: the ability to establish where he was. That is not a technicality. It is a due process violation at the constitutional level. Then Carroll produced the one piece of physical evidence she claimed corroborated her account — the dress she wore during the alleged incident. It was subsequently established that the dress was designed after the incident could have occurred. The sole corroborating evidence falsified her timeline. The case proceeded anyway. The resulting verdict was then weaponized in a defamation suit — where Trump was held liable for denying the allegation, while being procedurally barred from defending against it, because it was already "proven" in another court, regardless how flawed the procedure was. He was punished, in effect, for asserting his own innocence. Compounding everything: coordinated professional and physical threats so thoroughly intimidated the legal community that attorneys refused these cases regardless of available fees. When you systematically destroy a defendant's ability to retain counsel of choice, you forfeit the right to a legitimate verdict. An allegation is not evidence. Process without substance is not law. And a verdict produced under these conditions carries no legitimate authority — whatever its formal status. Not only is it the right move to investigate Carroll, but every other person involved as well. Trump is owed serious damages here, and there may be a few people who belong in prison for their roles in the case.

Ready to have your mind blown? Senator John Kennedy on Elon Musk and DOGE exposing USAID, “I'll tell you what Mr. Musk discovered. I find it fascinating. He discovered: - The American taxpayers are giving money to Afghanistan - He found that we are giving money to Yemen - He found that we are giving money to Syria - He found that the USAID has 10,000 people employees, and every year they give away $40 billion - He found that the USAID gave money to support electric vehicles in Vietnam. Our money, taxpayer money - He found that the USAID gave money to a transgender clinic in India. “I didn't know that. I bet you the American people didn't know that” - He found that USAID gave $1.5 million to a Serbian LGBTQ group, they got $1.5 million to QUOTE, “advanced diversity, equity, inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities” - They found that USAID spent $164 million to support radical organizations around the world - They gave $122 million of that to groups aligned with foreign terrorist organizations - According to this report in Mr. Musk, the USAID has given millions of dollars to quote organizations in Gaza controlled by Hamas - He found that we gave $2 million, USAID did, for sex changes in Guatemala - He found that we gave $20 million to produce a new Sesame Street show in Iraq - He found that we gave $4.5 million of taxpayer money to combat misinformation in Kazakhstan - He found that we gave $10 million, USAID did, of meals to an al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group called the Nusra Front - Mr. Musk found that we gave $7.9 million of taxpayer money to a project that would teach Sri Lankan journalists to avoid binary gendered language. (The USAID took 8 million bucks and gave it to a bunch of journalists in Sri Lanka to teach them how to avoid binary gendered language) - USAID gave $1.5 million to promote LGBT advocacy in Jamaica - They gave $1.5 million to rebuild the Cuban media ecosystem - They gave $1.5 million for quote, art for inclusion of people with disabilities in Belarus - Another $3.9 million for LGBT causes in Macedonia - $8.3 million for equity and inclusion education in Nepal “I could go all night and many of my colleagues are upset. They're really mad at Mr. Musk. Hell, I think we ought to give him a medal”

E. Jean Carroll, who herself claimed to be a massive Trump fan 15 years ago, appears deranged and sick. She lives with rodents, names her cat Vagina, and her dog Tits. She writes stories about what her dog taught her about sex, claimed on live TV that rape was sexy, and paints trees blue. Emails between her and her friend, who was also a key witness in the case, reveal her talking about her grand scheme to remove Trump from office. She was funded by a billionaire Democrat, benefited from changed laws specifically to prosecute Trump, and Carroll was the first person in the state to file under this new law. She won a case against Trump with zero evidence, no eyewitnesses, and in a trial where the judge refused to admit Trump's evidence against Carroll, showcasing a politically motivated prosecution. If you don't see an issue with that, you are part of the problem.

Medicare is actually best described as a public-private partnership: The government sets benefits, prices, and standards, but private contractors(insurance companies who bid to get the work) execute much of the operational day-to-day work. Believe it or not, Medicare is the best run healthcare administration system in the US as evidenced by many studies on patient satisfaction. (91% of Medicare beneficiaries rated their insurance as “excellent” or “good.” This compares to 80% for employer-sponsored insurance (ESI) and 73% for ACA Marketplace plans.

Stop the panic. Stop the tantrums. Stop acting like fickle children who need to be hand-held through every single news cycle. You’re reading the mainstream BS and calling this "Obama 2.0"? Wake up. ​Look at what was just signed on that dotted line: ​The Strait of Hormuz is FULLY reopened. ​Iran charges ZERO transit fees. ​The US pays ZERO dollars to Iran. ​Lebanon is forced into the ceasefire. ​A strict 60-day clock is ticking on their nuclear program. ​This isn't appeasement—this is tactical strangulation. ​Remember who we are talking about. Trump already obliterated the IRGC’s military backbone, liquidated their air force, crushed their navy, eliminated their top leadership, and dismantled most of their nuclear infrastructure. He didn't do all that just to give up now. ​Oil is DOWN. The economy is UP. The markets are ROARING. ​This 60-day window isn't a lifeline; it’s a trap. Trump is clearing the board, stabilizing the markets, and driving down oil to set the stage. The ultimate goal hasn't changed, but the battlefield has. He needs the Midterms. Once the GOP secures Congress, the final pieces fall into place. ​Regime change in Iran isn't canceled—it's arriving next year. ​Trust the strategy. Trust God's gift. Give the man room to operate. ​Serenity Now. Insanity Later. 🇺🇸🦅 ​#Trump #Trump2026 #RegimeChange #Iran #StraitOfHormuz #AmericaFirst #ArtOfTheDeal #Midterms2026 #StayLine #TrustTheProcess
