Trump classified payments to the porn star who blackmailed him and the lawyer who stole from him as Legal Expenses, instead of Extortion Expenses! Prosecution of inappropriate accounting practices must clearly be prioritized over daily incidents such as rapes and shootings on the

Happy 35T day! We will be celebrating 36T day before the end of the year. Fascinating that the most bankrupt entity on earth is still able to borrow…

So the word-salad-producing replacement of the dementia patient may be an alcoholic? This would explain a lot. Alcohol also releases inhibitions - which could for example cause a closet communist to come out of the closet prematurely.

Brilliant speech by #RobertKennedyJr . Make America Healthy Again!

July: Trump ahead in the polls, assassination fails, the swamp replaces Biden in panic. September: Trump again ahead in the polls, another assassination fails, no longer possible to replace Harris… what does the swamp do now?

I wonder if official media will score an own goal this week: Trump wins, the propagandists masquerading as journalists deny his victory, and what is left of their audience finally wakes up?

The H1B debate revealed that a significant fraction of the new right are closet socialists; not much different from the woke left clamoring for DEI-based welfare. All this talk about "our jobs" and "American jobs" is like calling someone else's house "our house". Jobs are not a

As consumers, we buy imported goods which undermine American businesses. Yet we complain when businesses return the favor - by hiring imported labor which undermines our wages.

It is hilarious how the TikTok ban resulted in Americans and Chinese comparing prices of living. The average American is still able to afford more goods and services than the average Chinese (as evidenced by PPP-per-capita.) The question is not why do you get decent lunch for 20

Great move by Team Trump on tariffs. This is effectively the end of globalism in its present (and rather toxic) form. It is not aimed at reducing global trade itself, but rather the imbalances in global trade: the tariffs are half of the trade *deficit* with each country. The

Ironic that Trump has to impose tariffs to boost domestic production. While Putin got this benefit for free and to a much greater extent. Thanks to the idiots who forced their companies to abandon the Russian market and hand it over to domestic manufacturers.

Fun fact: China has 300B trade surplus with the US, which we can tariff; but US companies generate 500B revenue within China, which they can tax. And we already banned TikTok, so no leverage there.

This tariff war is a great opportunity for China to achieve their long-standing goal of increasing domestic consumption. It is hard to do because their culture is to save, not spend just for fun. But now their government can invoke patriotism: the evil Americans are attacking us,

Attacking Venezuela will be idiotic on pretty much every level. I am still hoping this is a bluff, but the Naval force in the Caribbean is getting too big… maybe it is a Big Beautiful Bluff?

When I invested in Truth Social back in 2021, I had no idea they would get into Bitcoin and now fusion reactors 🤣 My thesis continues to be that a businessman President will think of some way to monetize.

Simple sanity check for AI coding tools: if you ask it to write and then fix its own code, does it eventually settle? Just tried generating a one-page C++ function. Grok Code Fast 1 settled after a single revision and the code worked. Claude Sonnet 4.5 kept revising its own code

So we killed 80 people and took hostages. Hamas at least claimed to be freedom fighters.
