I agree with you. I think for now, one of the best defenses is dedicating a portion of your reading time to printed-paper books. For me, I absorb and retain the information in a tangible book better than a digital format. If all you are doing is consuming information digitally, especially through the internet you are putting all your information eggs in one basket.

When immigrants refuse to integrate into the host society's legal, linguistic, and commercial fabric, they create jurisdictional ambiguity. Ambiguity is where transaction costs breed. But that is only part 1 of the problem cascade.

Consider the banlieues ringing Paris, where Sharia-adjacent informal courts settle disputes that French civil law theoretically governs. Two competing legal systems occupying the same geography produce institutional decay. Contracts become unenforceable across community lines. Capital avoids the uncertainty. Citizens pay that cost in stagnant property values and higher insurance premiums. But wait there is more.

Language is infrastructure. A Turkish enclave in Berlin where 40% of residents speak no functional German represents a communication barrier that price signals cannot cross efficiently. Entrepreneurs cannot hire freely across that barrier without absorbing translation overhead. Labor markets fragment. Wages inside the enclave compress because the worker pool cannot compete in the broader market.

Then, the welfare state makes it dramatically worse. State subsidies remove the market pressure that historically forced assimilation. Ellis Island immigrants learned English because the market paid them to. Today the German government pays families in Neukölln to remain monolingual, then wonders why parallel societies calcify across two and three generations.

Non-assimilation creates a property rights problem across cultural barriers. Voluntary immigration into a free society demands adoption of its legal foundations. Anything less transfers real costs onto existing citizens without their consent, and that is simply redistribution without even a passport.

Fast forward 20 years and you end up with this:

@BarackObama Why are you meeting with UK government officials? You’re not an elected office holder any longer. https://t.co/jo4rQ7OXah

[Barbara M Boyd @BarbaraMBoyd]

for all of you saying I want to see cuffs or I won't vote, this is what happened. I keep saying, take into a account a coup d'etat run by friggin lawyers. In this case, Shakespeare was right. Now add to it that you can't do it without eliminating the cancer called the special relationship which permeates the Congress. Don't vote, and you're handing power right back to the people who hate you and who will kill you without thinking about it.

J’ai entendu dire que la France était finie, qu’il était trop tard pour la sauver.

Mais la France est toujours aussi belle, enviable même. Sa grandeur n’a pas disparu, elle ne demande qu’à renaître.

Nous avons surmonté en un an un problème cent fois plus grave, sans avoir les moyens dont dispose la France.

La France pourrait y arriver en une semaine.

“ALLAHU AKBAR!” FRANCE IS BURNING, AND OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES ARE CELEBRATING TONIGHT.

I warned you back in 2017. Obama was backing Macron and intervening in France’s election while another Western nation faced a battle over its future.

THE RED-GREEN ALLIANCE: MARXISM AND ISLAM.

We are watching the slow death of Western civilization.

[Sarah Adams @sarahadams]

If France showed us anything these last 24 hours, it’s that we have to stand strong on pushing for mass deportations. There should be no gray area on this!

Great summary of what is happening in France.

[Brivael Le Pogam @brivael]

Over the last two days I went on Fox News and Newsmax to warn Americans about what's happening in France. Today, the images speak for themselves.

October 17, 2026. In Marseille, France's second-largest city, a mob smashed through the doors of City Hall and stormed the lobby chanting "It's the revolution, we're taking the Bastille." Shortly before, rioters had trashed a municipal police station, breaking windows and throwing smoke bombs inside. Shops on the main avenue were vandalized and barricades were set on fire. In Paris, masked black bloc crews fired mortar fireworks at police at Place de la République while tear gas filled the square. There were 166 arrests nationwide by midday and more than 600 protests across the country, after weeks of blockaded high schools. The Yellow Vests are back.

Now here's what every American needs to understand. What are these people demanding? More: higher wages, higher pensions, more public spending, more state. That's in a country where the government already spends more than half of everything the economy produces.

This isn't an accident. It's where 45 years of socialism lead. Since 1981, left or right, every French government has grown the state. Macron is just the final, most polished version of the same system.

Socialism doesn't create prosperity. It creates dependency. When people rely on the state for everything, every disappointment turns into anger at the state. And the state cannot allocate capital. It doesn't risk its own money, and it never goes bankrupt when it's wrong. It just borrows more and taxes more. Productivity stalls, wages stagnate and prices rise. Then people take to the streets demanding even more state. The loop feeds itself until it breaks.

America, watch closely. If the Democrats fully embrace socialism, this is the trailer for what comes next. History is accelerating. It took France decades to get here. It won't take you nearly as long.

Vote for less government, never more.

@AlexAndBooks_ thanks for finding the clip.

[Lara Logan @laralogan]

Full credit to the Ruthless Podcast! This is unbelievable. What a great catch. If you don’t want Obama back for yet another term, don’t vote for Baby Beto.

[Chris Costa @chris_costa01]

This alone is enough to vote for Paxton.

[Robby Starbuck @robbystarbuck]

Texans: If you own an AR-15, James Talarico just said he’d vote to make them illegal. This has been his position for many years. Vote like your gun rights depend on it, because they do. He also wants to California your Texas by importing their "large" magazine ban (it’s not actually large). Just say no to this far left nanny state BS. VOTE KEN PAXTON to keep your gun rights!

@ewarren Only billionaire’s like Reid are allowed to buy elections if the candidate is a D—got it!

President Trump praises armed bystander who stopped school shooting:

"Thank God we had him, otherwise it would've been much worse. It's a terrible thing, but thank goodness for a man that had a gun and knew how to use it."

From Idaho to Oregon we are finding out again and again that responsible citizens who carry can end threats effectively. Conceal carry is a right and should not be restricted
