@TonySeruga The fix: Decertify teacher unions. Make 'teacher' a respected merit-based 'profession' with ethics codes & performance metrics: good promoted, bad demoted. Place cameras in every classroom. Protects students, teachers, admin & parents. Behavior changes when cameras are present.

The relationship between the U.S. and Israel is not transactional, it is a long and vital partnership, but the next time you hear the tired question of "What does the U.S. get for $3.8 Billion to Israel," answer simply - RETURNS.

R – Research, Innovation, and the Combat Laboratory
Access to one of the world's most active laboratories for military innovation, where new technologies, concepts, and operational methods are developed, tested, and refined under real combat conditions. Combined with one of the world's leading defense technology and startup ecosystems, this environment generates technological advancements, operational insights, and innovation that would be difficult, expensive, and in many cases impossible to replicate through peacetime experimentation, exercises, simulations, or war games.

E – Economic Benefits
American jobs and manufacturing supported through purchases of U.S.-made military equipment, while strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base through joint production, co-development, and missile defense cooperation for the benefit of the U.S. military and American national security.

T – Technology
Access to military technologies refined in combat, from active protection systems and missile defense to counter-drone capabilities, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies.

U – Unique Understanding of Modern Warfare
Battlefield lessons drawn from one of the world's most active conflict environments, providing insights into urban warfare, tunnel warfare, missile defense, drones, battlefield medicine, artificial intelligence, and modern combat. These lessons help the United States adapt and prepare without having to learn them first through American casualties, American mistakes, or American wars.

R – Regional Stability Through Alliance
A capable ally helping deter common adversaries and maintain stability in one of the world's most strategically important regions while remaining willing and able to fight alongside the United States when necessary.

N – National Security Intelligence
Intelligence that helps prevent attacks against Americans, American forces, and American interests while improving U.S. understanding of shared threats, adversaries, and emerging security challenges.

S – Strategic Freedom to Focus on China
Greater freedom for the United States to concentrate military, diplomatic, and economic resources on long-term competition with China in the Indo-Pacific while helping preserve a favorable balance of power in the Middle East.

@ThrillaRilla369 Talk to your doc about Botox injections, Atogepant pills or Ajovy injections. All are preventative therapies for migraine.
I suffer from chronic tension headache, all day every day. My neurologist has me trying the above but so far no joy - but mine are not classic migraine.

@dbongino And it's also my birthday.
75 years old.
Sheesh.

@JamesHu27192912 Yes, leave people over sixty alone.
And while you're at it, get off my lawn!

Happy 80th Birthday to President @realDonaldTrump! I’m sure he must feel like he has the weight of the world on his shoulders. Join me in praying that God would continue to strengthen him, give him wisdom, and guide his every step. And pray that God would give us peace, not just in this country, but in the Middle East, Europe, and around the world.

@moonlitira Americas is now more fond of old worthless communists, than the guy literally filling the sky with AI servers we'll all be able to use. It's so feckin weird. Please stop it. 🇺🇸

@anand_singh0 @buc97552 This is true. X algorithm feeds me endless anti-muslim posts now because I paid attention to a few a while back. I for one believed the original caption-I do read comments for context. I plead guilty/not guilty as the British police have more than earned their biased reputation.

Mosab Hassan Yousef, son of Hamas founder, triggered absolute hysteria among pro-Palestinian students at Oxford — simply by telling the truth about his father’s terrorist organization.

@SteveLovesAmmo Read the books. Waaaay better.

[Peter Hague @peterrhague]

I need the government to lock up criminals, defend the nation, build infrastructure, collect the bins, and a few other services - basic research etc. I’m not an anarchist or anything.

What I don’t need from the government is moral instruction. I don’t need them to tell me how to raise my kids. I don’t need them to nudge me into better dietary choices. I certainly don’t need them hamfistedly backdooring my devices to check I’m not doing anything they don’t like.

GTFO of my life, thank you. You’re not smarter than me, you aren’t qualified to manage me, please leave me alone.

@____Jaws____ @BenHart_Freedom Imports of heavy crude for diesel come mostly from Canada: ~70–80%, & Mexico: ~8–12%. Both are discounted from WTI - around US$10–15 per barrel - are within & can be considered part of the US economic/political sphere. Little to no supply chain risk so no fever dream required.

« J’ai 72 ans et je commence à en avoir marre.
On nous accuse presque d’être des privilégiés parce qu’on touche notre retraite. Mais qu’est-ce qu’on a vraiment volé à qui que ce soit ?
On a connu les semaines à 45, 48, parfois 50 heures. On faisait des heures supplémentaires sans même les compter, parce qu’il fallait nourrir la famille. On se levait à 5h, on rentrait parfois cassé, le dos en miettes, les mains abîmées. On ne pleurait pas, on ne faisait pas de burn-out : on tenait bon.
On a élevé nos enfants sans crèche, sans allocations familiales mirobolantes, sans aide de l’État. Juste avec notre salaire et notre courage. Et on en est fiers.
Aujourd’hui, on nous regarde de travers en disant que « les jeunes paient pour nos retraites ». Mais ce n’est pas nous le problème. C’est un système qui a été détourné, mal géré, et qui accueille de plus en plus d’assistés au lieu de récompenser ceux qui travaillent.
Nous, on a construit ce pays. Les routes, les usines, les écoles, les logements. On a bossé dur, souvent dans des conditions que beaucoup ne supporteraient plus aujourd’hui.
Alors oui, notre retraite, on l’a bien méritée. Pas par privilège. Par usure. Par sacrifice. Par devoir accompli.
Un peu de respect pour ceux qui ont donné leur santé et leur jeunesse pour que les générations suivantes aient une vie plus douce. ❤️👴👵»

@VanIsleShannon @mario4thenorth I'll bet the MSM will ignore the fact that Canada created the mess you point to with CARM, & will focus its TDS laser beam on the brains of its dumb Canadian audience. "It's all Trump's fault-he's attacking Canada" will be the refrain as the economy sinks further into recession.

[JAM1951 @JimonSolarFlair]

@jimparkermusic @MarcNixon24 The "future" was the day after Harper handed the keys to nitwit Trudeau who, if he was planning for the future (ie. today) did a pi$$ poor job of it. 11 years of stupid has left Canada in a death spiral of despair. Proper steps to ensure growth? Start with dumping the Liberals.

@QuantumTumbler Forego the chance of retrieval, inspection, or correction and just get rid of the stuff. If the deployment of nuclear power plants goes as expected there will be plenty of spent fuel should a use other than disposal is developed in the future. No?
