“We’re freaking out. We can’t find engineers. We’ve had a position open two years. Kids aren’t studying real majors anymore.”

Trump and Hegseth need to tell these companies that they need to get off the DEI dildo and hire qualified people regardless of color and nationality. Tell them no more H1-B visas and all contracts will prohibit hiring a foreigner over a citizen. Foreigners can only augment not replace.
 
If this is being done by the EU or someone else imposing censorship or demanding obscene fees, we saw in Venezuela that the US has the capability of shutting off all electricity from afar. Trump may just want to shut down Brussels, London, or somewhere else or an entire country to get their attention to not F with the US or its friends.
 
If the DOJ is going to indict anyone, especially politicians, do it prior to the primaries to give states the right to remove indicted turncoats prior to November. Don't wait until after the primary in the event the candidate can't be substituted and the seat goes to more of the same repubes or worse a demonrat.
 

THE UNIPARTY UNMASKED – They Believe They Are “Democracy”

The seven NGOs in the chart below, in my view, represent the Uniparty. Each of these organizations receives substantial financial support from USAID or the Department of State.

Around 2019, the phrase “democracy in danger” began to dominate public discourse, amplified by the media. This was odd—after all, the U.S. is a democracy (or more precisely, a constitutional republic). But as I traced the influence of these NGOs, a pattern emerged: they are controlled by establishment politicians, they play a major role in shaping political narratives worldwide, and their core mission is always framed as “protecting democracy.”

Originally, these NGOs were created to support U.S. democratic efforts abroad—many of them emerging during the Cold War to combat the spread of communism. But with the fall of the Soviet Union, their original purpose faded. Instead of dissolving, they redefined their mission. Now, they have positioned themselves as the guardians of democracy itself.

This shift explains why Trump’s re-election was framed as a "threat to democracy." To these NGOs, “democracy” means themselves. Their survival depends on maintaining that role, and any challenge to their authority is perceived as a direct attack on democracy itself.

 


The more I dig into this NYC rent control situation, the more alarmed I become.

This is what I'm seeing:

+ 2.4 million rent-controlled apartments in a city with a massive housing shortage and 1.4% vacancy rate.

+ A huge % of these tenants are wealthy, white boomers using the units as pieds-a-terres while they spend their weekends and summers elsewhere.

+ Meanwhile, the government is using rent control to purposely drive down the value of multifamily housing, so that it can be purchased in a fire sale by the government.

+ The small-time landlords with big rent rolls of "stabilized" units are going under. Their portfolios end up in the arms of PE and foreign money (how are Progressives okay with this?) The banks will get hit by this too.

+ Because there is such a reduction in supply (~40% of units are price-controlled), leftover supply is ~33% more expensive

+ Because NYC gov is not friendly towards landlords, there is a lack of development --> even less supply

+ Rich and homeowners overwhelmingly support these laws b/c it drives up the value of their condos & co-ops (less supply --> higher prices for condos)

+ Big PE companies like these policies b/c they can buy buildings in fire sales and wait for rent control reform (5-10 years out)

+ Meanwhile - ~2.4 million units are rotting and won't be brought up to code as tenants leave b/c the numbers don't pencil --> 50k "ghost apartments" padlocked off market now, maybe 100k soon

+ Gen Z and the working class continue to vote for these policies, hoping they will be among the lucky few to win the lottery ticket of a rent-controlled apartment

+ Meanwhile, boomers hang onto their units and pass them to their children, family members, etc. --> NYC's housing stock is rotting slowly, going offline, and becoming more expensive

Isn't this what the Constitution is for? To protect property owners and citizens from the tyranny of the majority? This is clearly a taking. It's clearly buying votes. I'm floored this is happening, and nobody is talking about it because it's "politically incorrect" to critique rent control. **

Rent control is the reason housing in NYC is so expensive, and it's the reason there is a shortage.**Boomers really pulled a fast one on this. Well done, Boomers.
 

If the Iranian regime falls, several geopolitical events happen:

1. The sponsorship in the form of training, money, intelligence, weapons, & command/control of Houthis, Hezbollah, Hamas, & all the Iraqi terror groups ends immediately.

2. The remnants of those terror elements get attacked & destroyed by the nations they are operating in— Iraq, Yemen, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel & the gaza strip.

3. China loses 1/3 of its imported oil. After losing 1/3 of its imports from Venezuela already.

4. China loses its biggest customer of missile & drone & radar & SAM systems.

5. Russia & China loses their biggest seller of rock bottom priced oil they consume (China) or sell for profit (Russia).

6. Qatar loses all relevance in security matters in the Middle East.

7. Qatar’s wealth, dependent on being the central banker for Iranian Regime, takes a massive hit.

8. The base at Al Udeid is no longer needed saving the US taxpayers huge amounts of money.

9. The US Military need to keep forces in the CENTCOM AO dramatically decreases freeing up assets for the Pacific.

10. The Chinese military & economy has to overcome a 70% shortfall in oil imports.

11. The Chinese military has to face a much bigger US presence in the Pacific.

12. Russia loses its supply of suicide drones— it’s dependent on Venezuelan & Iranian production. If both end…

13. The US enters oil deals with Iran & Venezuela making OPEC irrelevant.

These are just some of the geopolitical changes that happen if the Iranian Regime falls.
 

Dear friends- Last night, the world held its breath as reports surfaced of fighter jets taking off from Europe and Northern Israel, recorded flying over Iraq toward the Iranian border. To the average observer, the silence that followed looked like a "nothingburger"—a false alarm or a mission aborted. In reality, what we witnessed was a masterclass in strategic deception and psychological warfare. President Trump and Israeli leadership did not just launch a mission; they launched a trap. By creating a scenario where the Iranian regime was certain a massive kinetic strike was imminent, they forced the Ayatollahs to hit the "red button" on their entire defensive strategy. Believing the end had come, the regime activated every emergency protocol they have spent years perfecting in secret. They played their best cards before the game even started, and while they scrambled in panic, the United States and Israel watched their every move.

In those few hours of perceived attack, the regime’s entire "nervous system" was exposed. We now possess the exact coordinates of the hidden bunkers where senior officials flee during a crisis, the secret emergency frequencies they use for "blackout" communication, and the specific procedures they follow at every level of command. This was an intelligence harvest of unprecedented proportions. By the time the regime realized this was a ruse, it was too late to change the locks. We now have the roadmap to their entire survival strategy, leaving them with no time to implement alternative protocols. While the world looked for explosions, we were busy dismantling the regime’s ability to defend itself. We are now more prepared for a final confrontation than at any point in history.

This moment marks the beginning of the end for a 47-year disaster that began with the failures of the Carter and Obama eras. For nearly five decades, the "long drive" toward freedom has felt weary and endless, but last night provided the answer to the question: "Are we there yet?" This is a two-front war for the future of the globe. On the physical front, we are seeing a high-stakes chess match with China, using massive leverage to isolate and reclaim Iran and Venezuela. On the spiritual front, this is the ultimate battle of Light versus Darkness—a collision between the strength of Messianic Israel and the corruption of the Ayatollahs. The intelligence on the ground is undeniable: the foundation is crumbling, the era of executions is coming to an end, and the momentum is now unstoppable.

The timeline is set. History is moving at a pace that cannot be ignored. The regime is projected to fall by March 15th, and by 2027, the symbolic return of Pahlavi will mark the dawn of a new era for the Iranian people. The "long drive" is almost over. From Washington D.C. to Jerusalem to the brave souls on the streets of Tehran, the forces of good are rising in unison. The regime no longer has the tools to hide or the time to recover. Do not be fooled by the lack of smoke on your television screens; last night, the tide officially turned. The good people of Iran and their allies have already won the strategic battle.

Now, we simply watch the clock run out on a dying regime. Hold the line and stay patient. The victory is already written.
 

That's how they think the real world works.... Put "press" on your vehicle and then you can ram ICE agents and be protected by the 1st amendment.... Freaking lunatics.
