Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
@maatmouse@downbadcomment Showing your partner a sex tape with an ex is vile and evil.
Has nothing to do with accepting or growing up, in fact sounds like the gf is the one who should grow up.
Holy shit you're a moron lmao
Data centers revitalize American manufacturing by driving massive demand and upgrading the power infrastructure in former industrial hubs.
Building American technological infrastructure is good for America.
I just can’t.
I just can’t accept that my government takes my money to bring these people here and then takes more of my money to buy all their shit and then takes more of my money to bankroll all of their flagrant Medicaid scams.
It’s entirely unacceptable.
🚨BREAKING: A sickening ruling has sparked outrage: Three teenage boys who gang-raped two girls — while filming the attacks on their phones, laughing, and cheering each other on — have been given zero jail time.
Judge Nicholas Rowland said he wanted to “avoid criminalising these children unnecessarily” and focus on their “reintegration into society.”
The victims? Completely betrayed by the system.
This is what happens when judges prioritize rapists over justice. Disgusting.
The UK justice sytem is completely broken!
Reminder: After Nick Shirley’s reporting in Minneapolis, CNN sent a 'reporter' to ‘investigate' by making calls from a hotel.
But instead of being interested in actually investigating any fraud, they were hoping to discredit Shirley.
This is CNN.
This is the lesson of capitalism.
You are not smart enough to know whether California should grow almonds or wheats or data centers or anything else.
So you allow the price system to function. On everything, including water. Then resources are used efficiently.
Disagree and you’ve learned literally nothing from the twentieth century.
Insane stat of the day: California almonds use roughly 3–5.5 million acre-feet of water per year, depending on methodology.
That's ~4-7x more water than all data centers in North America used combined in 2025.

I’m so tired of this talking point. Tom Steyer is running for governor of California, which spent $20,000 *per student* in 2023. That’s double what the state spent just 10 years ago. And yet test scores are *declining.* The idea that we don’t “invest in schools” is a myth.
Where are LA’s homeless from? I surveyed 210 homeless across LA, finding the majority are not from LA. My latest with @christopherrufo in @CityJournal:

76% of black voters want voter ID
Along with 82% of Latinos and 85% of whites.
Democrats hyperventilate about "preserving democracy" while they block the single most obvious thing that preserves democracy.
