🚨 NOW: Sec. Marco Rubio just broke out into full SPANISH MODE, ripping the Communist Cuban regime and sending a message DIRECTLY to the people

DOWN WITH COMMUNISM 🇺🇸🇨🇺

"The reason you are FORCED to survive without electricity is NOT an oil blockade by America...no electricity, fuel or food is because the people who control it have PLUNDERED billions of dollars, but NOTHING has been used to help the people!"

"30 years ago, Raúl Castro founded a company called GAESA. This company is owned by the Armed Forces and operated by them, and has income three times higher than the current budget of his government!"

"Today, while you are suffering, these entrepreneurs have $18 billion in assets and control 70% of Cuba's economy."

"They obtain profits from hotels, constructions, banks, stores, and even the money that their relatives send them from the United States."

"Everything, everything goes through their hands. From those remittances, they retain a percentage, but nothing comes to you from the profits of GAESA."

"Instead of using the money to buy oil, like all other countries in the world, they depended on Hugo Chavez and Maduro's free oil to keep the money. But now that they no longer receive free oil, they buy fuel for their generators and their vehicles, while the people are asked to sacrifice themselves."

"If owning your own business and having the right to vote is possible around Cuba, why is it not possible for you inside Cuba? In the United States, we are ready to open a new chapter in the relationship between our people and our countries!"

"And right now, the only thing that gets in the way of a better future is those who control their country."

[Commissioner Roberto J. Gonzalez @RobJGonzalezFL]

Miami-Dade isn’t just surviving — it’s becoming the future of America’s major metropolitan areas. 🇺🇸

Lower taxes. Pro-business energy. Safer streets. Real freedom. People are voting with their feet (and their wallets).
While NYC doubles down on high costs, soft-on-crime policies, and endless decline… Miami is building the model that works.

The center of the new American universe? Miami-Dade is showing the way.

Can’t wait for The Miami Model doc dropping tomorrow! 🔥

Over the last few months, I've switched from primarily using ChatGPT to mostly using Claude.

The only slight downside to Claude for me has been the creative visual side.

It often leaves me wanting to create better assets and have more creative control.

As of today, that problem is solved with @pixa.

Check out the insane creative capabilities now possible with Pixa via the tweet below:

Palantir just chose Miami.

Cue the predictable take:
“Florida doesn’t have the engineering talent.”

Cool. Let’s run the numbers.

Florida produces 89% as many engineers per capita as California.

Eighty. Nine. Percent.

That’s with:
• Zero Stanford
• Zero Caltech
• No 10-campus UC empire

What Florida does have:
• 7 R1 research universities
• $3.3B in annual research spend
• The largest aerospace engineering program in the country
• SpaceX. Blue Origin. Lockheed. L3Harris. Northrop. All building here.

Now the part nobody on Tech X wants to discuss:

Florida tuition: ~$6,500/year
California tuition: $14,000+
Florida income tax: 0%
California income tax: up to 13.3%

So let’s compare:

Cost to produce an engineer → Florida wins.
Cost to retain an engineer → Florida wins.
Engineer purchasing power → Florida wins.

That’s arithmetic.

The ROI per engineering degree in Florida might be the highest in America.

The people mocking Florida are arguing with a 2015 version of the state.

The 2026 version is building rockets, defense systems, AI companies and so much more.

You can keep the narrative.

We’ll keep the compounding.

We have moved our headquarters to Miami, Florida.

[Joseph Abehsera @JosephAbehsera]

I’m a tech founder who’s been living in Miami for the past 4 years. Here’s the good, the bad, and the ugly:

THE GOOD:
Miami is one of the last remaining cities in America that still feels optimistic.

A lot of cities right now feel miserable.
Negative. Victim mentality everywhere.

Miami is the opposite.

A huge reason is the culture here.

A lot of people in Miami came from Latin America, many from countries that dealt with socialism/communism firsthand.

So people are genuinely grateful to be in America.

Like on the 4th of July…

You’ll literally see thousands of Latin Americans lined up across the beach, fireworks going off, proud as hell to be here.

That energy is rare.

Another major pro:

Miami is young and healthy.

People are outside.
People work out.
Healthy food is everywhere.

Staying in shape is basically part of the culture.

And if you’re building something long term, being in a city like that matters.

Another thing people don’t talk about:

Miami has insane foot traffic.

Coming from LA (where nobody walks and everyone lives in their car), Miami feels completely different.

Brickell.
Wynwood.
Downtown.
Sunny Isles.
Miami Beach
South Beach

People are OUT.

Which means if you’re a founder building in Retail, pop-ups, experiences, stores…

Miami is a cheat code.

There’s money + movement everywhere.

And another huge pro:

Miami is one of the biggest vacation hubs in the country.

So at least once a year, people you want to meet will end up here.

Investors.
Founders.
Business owners.

I’ve gotten lunch with people from LA, New York, Tel Aviv, SF…

just because they were randomly in Miami for a week.

That’s a massive networking advantage.

THE BAD:
Miami still isn’t a tech-heavy city.

Most people here are in real estate, healthcare, hospitality, finance, etc.

It’s not New York.
It’s not San Francisco.

But… you can feel the tide slowly shifting.

Another con:

Miami is spread out.

Many pockets are walkable, but Miami-Dade as a whole is not.

If you’re not living directly in Brickell or South Beach, it’s normal for everything to be a 15–20 minute drive.

Very LA vibes.

THE UGLY:
If you’re not disciplined, Miami will eat you alive.

Waking up late is normal here.

People are always on vacation.
Boating.
Partying.
Drinking.

If you’re trying to build something serious, you can get distracted fast.

Thank G-d this hasn’t been an issue for me (I moved here married and family-focused), but Miami can take people out.

And the biggest ugly of all:

The summer.

July, August, September…

the humidity is disrespectful.

Like the air is literally attacking you.

If you can’t handle heat, those 3 months are brutal.

But the other 9 months?

Perfect.

Overall:

Miami isn’t perfect…

but if you’re ambitious, disciplined, and want to be around optimistic energy…

it’s one of the best cities in America right now.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The radical left has been using fraudulent government programs for a long time to import and retain vast numbers of illegal (and legal, in some cases) immigrants to win elections and turn America into a single-party state, destroying any real democracy.

The more you look at it, the more you will be horrified at what your tax money is doing and the fact that, if this is not reversed, your vote will mean nothing.

The most obvious case example is the Somali voting bloc in Minnesota, a state that historically had zero Somalis, electing Ilhan Omar to the US Congress.

The same is happening in Europe, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

The United States did not attend the G20 in South Africa, because the South African Government refuses to acknowledge or address the horrific Human Right Abuses endured by Afrikaners, and other descendants of Dutch, French, and German settlers. To put it more bluntly, they are killing white people, and randomly allowing their farms to be taken from them. Perhaps, worst of all, the soon to be out of business New York Times and the Fake News Media won’t issue a word against this genocide. That’s why all the Liars and Pretenders of the Radical Left Media are going out of business! At the conclusion of the G20, South Africa refused to hand off the G20 Presidency to a Senior Representative from our U.S. Embassy, who attended the Closing Ceremony. Therefore, at my direction, South Africa will NOT be receiving an invitation to the 2026 G20, which will be hosted in the Great City of Miami, Florida next year. South Africa has demonstrated to the World they are not a country worthy of Membership anywhere, and we are going to stop all payments and subsidies to them, effective immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
