Elon Musk just said the one thing about America they made sure you’d never learn.
The one thing that should’ve made you proud, not ashamed.
Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?”
One nation held a weapon no civilization had ever possessed.
Total monopoly on destruction. No rival. No consequence. No limit.
Every empire in history that held that kind of power did the only thing empires know how to do.
They took until there was nothing left to take.
America had a greater advantage than all of them combined.
And rebuilt the nations it just defeated.
Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.”
Not almost unprecedented.
It had never happened. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded civilization.
The nation with the power to take everything chose to rebuild instead.
Enemies became allies. Rubble became economies. Surrender became partnership.
Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a single generation.
Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth.
Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin.
Into the capital of the country that just tried to end the free world.
That decision reshaped every economy, every alliance, and every trade route on the planet.
Billions of people lifted out of poverty over the next half century trace back to one moment. One nation choosing restraint over domination.
No other country in history can make that claim. Not one.
Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.”
Every nation on earth has blood in its history.
But the measure of a nation was never its worst chapter.
It’s what it does when nobody can stop it.
When nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities.
You’re being told every day that this country is something to be ashamed of.
By people who have no idea what the world looks like without it.
Every free market. Every open border for trade. Every democracy that took root outside Europe stands in the shadow of that single decision.
The values that built this country didn’t just shape America.
They shaped the modern world.
AI is about to hand a small number of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look primitive.
1945 was the first test.
AI is the last.
That power is going to exist. The only question left is who holds it.
The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb.
It was having the power to take everything and choosing not to.
The people trying hardest to tear that story down have never built a single thing worth defending.
the cop said they were doing "an operation for distracted drivers"
This was a quota and he fucking made it up and got caught
Who is the cop, whats his name
Lock his ass up

The America First Policy Institute, where many Trump 2.0 Cabinet and sub-Cabinet officials came through, has asked me to do this research and write these articles. It is trying to bring more attention to this issue.
These articles -- here and on my substack page are free to all.
Really aggressive RPs would help greatly in pushing this story widely.
Washington State is the "home field" for these Marxist NGOs and elected politicians.
But they will expand this program out to as many states as they think they can get away with.
If funds NGOs and punishes what they see as suspect industries that pollute.
Please RP.

The City of Los Angeles diverted to the recently captured island of Iwo Jima. The crew extinguished what was left of Red Erwin's burning uniform. The medics at the field hospital examined him and did not believe he would survive.
He was conscious the entire time. He only asked about his crew.
General Curtis LeMay heard what had happened. He wanted Red to receive the Medal of Honor before he died. The only available Medal of Honor in the entire Pacific Theater was in a display case at US Army headquarters in Hawaii. LeMay sent a B-29 crew to retrieve it. They arrived at the office and found the commanding general was not there. They broke open the display case and took the medal.
On April 19 1945, exactly one week after the incident, Major General Willis Hale pinned the Medal of Honor on Red Erwin's bandaged chest in a hospital bed on Guam after LeMay pushed for the award to be rushed.
LeMay said: "Your effort to save the lives of your fellow airmen is the most extraordinary kind of heroism I know."
General Hap Arnold wrote that the act was "one of the bravest in the records of the war."
Red Erwin did not die.
He spent 30 months in military hospitals. He underwent 41 surgical procedures. The phosphorus particles in his body continued smoldering for months. He lost an eye, an ear, his nose, and several fingers. Doctors eventually rebuilt his face. They restored his sight in one eye. He regained the use of his left arm.
He was discharged in October 1947. He went home to Alabama. He raised four children with Betty. He worked for the next 37 years as a benefits counselor for the Department of Veterans Affairs in Birmingham, helping other wounded American servicemen receive their care.
He died on January 16 2002 at the age of 80.
He was the only B-29 crew member in the entire Second World War to receive the Medal of Honor.
I post a story like this every single day. Most people never see them. Follow so you don't miss the next one.
Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.
People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate.
A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him.
Enough is enough. It is time for ABC to take a stand. How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.
BREAKING: Washington state Attorney General Nick Brown's office colluded with Sen. Jamie Pedersen on writing SB 6346 The Income Tax.
Following the release of almost 1,000 pages through FOIA request, we now know the AG's office advised income tax architect Jamie Pedersen to attach an emergency clause to prevent a Referendum...
As well as on how to try and get the Supreme Court to overturn our state's constitution that prevents a progressive income tax.
The simple response from CADF (lawsuit against the tax):
"The Attorney General's role is to defend the constitution, not help the legislature find ways to violate it."

'EXCLUSIVE: Records reveal WA millionaire’s tax is meant to legalize progressive income tax'
BREAKING NEWS: Here's documented proof that Ferguson, Brown, Pedersen & Co are LYING when they claim that their unconstitutional state income tax scheme is only for "millionaires."
They plan to apply it to EVERYONE.
That means YOU.

During a meeting with top Washington state officials, including Governor Ferguson, Seattle's top federal prosecutor pleaded with them to at least cooperate with @ICEgov to get violent offenders and child sex predators into custody. They said no.
"The last straw": Seattle's top federal prosecutor says as of today, agents across @DHSgov are cut off from the Washington state database that allows them to run license plates and drivers' licenses. It's a change that could get agents killed during high-risk stops.
BREAKING NEWS: A concerned citizen in the Renton area reached out to me and dropped off hundreds of undelivered ballots.
THIS is evidence of WA's election integrity and security issues. He found the ballots in a box. On the ground. Next to a dumpster. Behind a strip mall.
The concerned citizen says he contacted King County Elections. No interest. WA Secretary of State. Nothing. His Congress representative. Nothing.
So, he came to me.
This is a mess. At least a few of these ballots show up in the state election history web page as having been cast!
THIS is why we need the Voter ID initiative/IP26-500. It will help clean up the state's registered voter database. And avoid boxes of misplaced ballots, sitting in a box. Next to a dumpster behind a strip mall in Renton.

Give me some examples of more rapid "Falls from Grace" than Swalwell.
Just issued a statement that he intends to resign from Congress to try to short-circuit efforts to expel the two Dem members -- both African-American females -- under indictment.
🚨Landmark Study of an ENTIRE COUNTRY (n=51 MILLION) Confirms COVID Shots Induced VAIDS in EVERY Age Group
Vaccinated Koreans suffered a dose-dependent rise in the common cold, infections, pneumonia, and tuberculosis — up to +559%.
BILL GATES spent over $100 MILLION on mRNA.
How ironic is it that Kennedy “isn’t qualified” to lead HHS because he’s not an MD—
… But a random judge in Boston is “qualified” to override the work of the HHS Secretary, government departments, medical committees, and countless physicians?
The fuse is lit
We’re turning to the SAVE America Act tomorrow
There can be no turning back
No zombie filibusters
Once we’re on the bill, we shouldn’t recess—even for the weekend—until this is done
Trump agrees
Proof of citizenship and voter ID must become law
Pass it on
🏈Democrats denied an income tax would hurt free agency. The Seahawks say it will.
✈️Democrats denied an income tax would lead to capital flight. It already is.
💵Democrats now deny that the "millionaires' tax" will turn into an income tax on all.
My advice? Don't believe them.
Melania Trump has spoken out publicly in defense of her husband, delivering an emotional statement that has quickly drawn attention across the political landscape.
“What is happening to my husband goes far beyond ordinary criticism. It has become deeply personal and, in many ways, profoundly unfair to a man who has devoted decades of his life to public service. I often ask myself how people can be so relentless. They are attacking a leader who carries immense responsibility every day — someone who works under constant pressure, scrutiny, and expectations that very few people could truly understand. Donald has never asked for sympathy, and he has never blamed others. Instead, he continues to work and lets his actions speak for themselves.”
“To me, Donald is more than just a president. He is a determined, disciplined, and resilient man. Rather than magnifying every mistake or adding more pressure through endless headlines and debates, people should recognize the sacrifices and strength it takes to stand at the center of such intense public attention.
He does not fight simply for power — he fights because he genuinely believes in the future of this nation.”
I am currently in Houston on my way to a book event in Florida. I am hearing horror stories from passengers caught up in the Democratic shutdown. It is outrageous that these members are continuing to receive their pay while these federal employees cannot support their families...
🚨 BREAKING: HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just pushed over 50 US medical schools to massively expand nutrition education. Starting this fall future doctors will be required to complete 40 hours of comprehensive nutrition training. Big shift for American healthcare and a huge MAHA win. Thank you Bobby. 🇺🇸👏🏻
