🚨 OMG. A MASSIVE India H-1B visa fraud ring has just been busted...nearly 90% PERCENT of India's visa applications contain FRAUDULENT INFORMATION

100,000 THOUSAND counterfeit certificates have been seized 🤯

"Law enforcement in India claim it has uncovered a network of universities that produce fake degrees which were possibly used to obtain these high skilled H1B visas, including one school which allegedly stole over 36,000 fake degrees. It cost as little as $1,400 for one of those."

"And while these are supposed to be high skilled employees during almost all of Biden's time in office, 83% got junior or entry level positions."

This is INSANE! SHUT DOWN THE H-1B SCAM!

@KenPaxtonTX is now going after this in Texas 🔥

Players in MLB HISTORY to have 12+ home runs, 6+ stolen bases & 16+ walks in a single calendar month:

Pete Crow-Armstrong - August 2026
Willie Mays - July 1955
Babe Ruth - May 1930, June 1920

That’s it.

Another massive L for Chicago.

In 2014, George Lucas picked Chicago for a $1 billion privately funded museum for his legendary collection - Star Wars artifacts, Norman Rockwell paintings, etc. Zero taxpayer dollars.

A left-wing nonprofit (“Friends of the Parks”) sued, claiming a parking lot was sacred “public trust land.” After years of delays, Lucas said screw it and took the whole thing to LA.

Opening this September. It looks incredible.

Meanwhile, Chicago rammed through the Obama Presidential Center on 19.3 acres of historic Jackson Park.
• Originally ~$300M → now $850M (nearly 3x over)
• Promised 2021 opening → now opening June 2026 (5 years late)
• Promised $470M endowment so taxpayers wouldn’t get stuck → only ~$1M deposited

One museum Chicago blocked.
One museum Chicago rammed through.

Chicago’s priorities on full display.

The @Cubs over their last 20 games:

17 total wins
10 comeback wins
9 wins after allowing the first run
6 one-run wins
4 walkoff wins
4 wins after trailing in 8th or later
3 extra-inning wins

No other MLB team in the modern era has done all of that over any 20-game span.

🚨🇺🇸 Meanwhile in America

“Look at them crawling out of there - millions of Ticks”

The story is so insane - Farmers continue to report finding Boxes full of Ticks on their farmland, clearly left their on purpose.

Now the US has already seen a sharp increase in the number of Tick related diseases.

Private equity has returned over 15% annually since 1984 vs about 12% for the S&P 500. Government pension funds put a third of their money in these investments. But according to @SenWarren, letting 401(k) savers access the same thing is “putting your retirement at risk.” The only risk here is listening to a senator who wants to keep 90 million Americans stuck at the salad bar while everyone else eats steak.

20-somethings are mass-depositing into Kalshi and FanDuel while tech stocks just hit their cheapest relative valuation in 7 years. One has 98 years of compounding data behind it. The other has a 5-15% house edge designed to drain your account.

The numbers on this chart are wild. Tech's forward P/E premium over the S&P 500 just dropped to 1.07x. In 2023 it peaked at 1.55x. That's a 30% compression in relative valuation while these companies actually grew earnings. The market is pricing the highest-margin sector in history like it's utilities.

Meanwhile 30 million Americans under 35 have a sports betting account. Exposed handle sizes averaging $150/week. Annual expected loss at a 10% house edge: roughly $780/year. Over a decade that's $7,800 in guaranteed losses, and that's before you count the deposits that chase the losses.

Take that same $150/week into a tech index at today's compressed valuation. At the sector's 20-year average annual return of ~15%, that's $180,000 in ten years. $1.2 million in twenty. The gap between those two outcomes is the difference between retiring at 45 and refreshing your FanDuel balance at 45.

Tech companies are running 25-35% net margins, sitting on $500B+ in combined cash, and building the infrastructure layer for AI. You're getting VC-tier exposure to the companies that will own the next decade, at a public market entry point that hasn't been this cheap since before COVID.

This is the buying opportunity that people look back on in 2035 and say "it was so obvious." It is obvious. The chart is right there.

Bennett Stirtz following Iowa’s magical run to the Elite Eight:

“If you wanna be a great point guard, you should come to Iowa. If you wanna be a great player, a great big, a great shooter, come play for Iowa. This coaching staff is the best in the country, so, why wouldn’t you?”
