For those who don't understand what can be done with machine vote counting, this is exactly what I had suspected has been going on for maybe 10 years or so and it seems to be spreading. We need to hand count the ballots and get rid of these machines! Thanks to those working so hard to figure out very complex technical situations with our elections.
The bar for making a positive impression has never been lower.
Show up on time.
Keep your word.
Treat people with respect.
Do that and you’ll immediately stand out.
Trump is literally cooking the Islamic regime from the inside, and today we witnessed yet another public crack in the system.
Most people are completely fixated on this MoU, treating it as the main story. In reality, it is largely just a pretext, a tool being used to advance much deeper games. The real game playing out is something else entirely, and people should be looking elsewhere to understand what’s truly happening.
Few days ago, one faction of the regime’s gangsters has been faking letters supposedly from Mojtaba Khamenei to claim that negotiations with the US were personally approved by him. Others quickly learned the trick and started playing the same game.
Today, one of the rivals claimed they have access to Mojtaba’s confidential letters with the current negotiating team. It turned into a full-blown public shitshow. Honestly, it was both ridiculous and entertaining. The pigs are turning on each other.
Let me lay out the full picture for you.
Khamenei, to coup-proof his rule, massively empowered the IRGC and turned it into a powerful state-within-a-state. But then he became afraid of his own creation, so he deliberately prevented power from concentrating in any single hand and allowed different competing cartels to form inside the IRGC.
Most of the top figures in these cartels are deeply corrupt, ideology is just a facade for them.
At the same time, he personally cultivated a loyal base from the poorest and most broken layers of society: fanatical, powerless people who were extremely loyal to him personally and would attack anyone on his command like rabid dogs.
After his death, the IRGC clearly took full control of the country, but they are far from united. They’re now openly fighting each other for the real seat of power.
Trump, with his deal-making style and the huge carrot of money, especially after the naval blockade pushed them into real poverty and begging, has brilliantly pushed these corrupt elements forward.
This has created open clashes with the more ideological factions. One of these hardliner cartels belongs to Saeed Jalili and includes figures like the cleric Mahmoud Nabavian, a sitting MP.
Today, Nabavian went on state TV and announced he wanted to reveal Mojtaba Khamenei’s confidential letters criticizing the negotiating team and the current deal. He started reading them live, but they cut him off mid-sentence. The network later called it a serious violation, announced legal action, and even one of the directors resigned and was rebuked.
This was their last desperate attempt to stop the negotiating team from reaching Geneva. But it failed. Just hours later, the other side, Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf and his crew, still made it to Geneva.
A few days ago, they even put the approval of this Memorandum of Understanding to a vote in the Supreme National Security Council. Everyone approved it except one person, and many believe that lone dissenter was Saeed Jalili, from the same cartel as Nabavian.
Meanwhile, another IRGC cartel, Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters, tried to sabotage the surrenderist negotiators’ trip to Geneva by claiming they had closed the Strait of Hormuz. CENTCOM immediately clapped back and said the Strait is wide open (and ships are moving freely). Perfect own-goal.
Trump knows exactly what he’s doing. He understands these animals better than anyone. He’s weakening the regime from within, without firing a single shot. Just as he predicted, as soon as the corrupt ones smelled real money, they sold out the entire regime and its ideology without hesitation.
Let the man cook, trust the process.
A recent study found that doing 10 bodyweight squats every 45 minutes during an 8.5-hour period of sitting, is more effective for blood sugar regulation than a single 30-minute walk.
Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

EL ANTISEMITISMO, EL ANTIJUDAÍSMO, EL ANTISIONISMO SEGÚN EL GENIO DE UNO DE
LOS GRANDES JUDÍOS DEL SÉPTIMO ARTE:
WOODY ALLEN.
"Woody Allen sobre el antisemitismo hoy y sobre lo rotos que están los gritones y los que siguen la corriente.Y todo al estilo Woody Allen.
Woody:
«Saben, siempre pensé que la mayor ventaja de Nueva York era que uno podía ser neurótico y nadie lo notaba. En otras ciudades te mandan al médico si hablas contigo mismo. En Manhattan te ofrecen una columna en una revista por ello.
Ayer salí a comprar salmón. Por cierto, es la única tradición judía estable que ha sobrevivido a Babilonia, Roma y a mis relaciones con mujeres.
Caminaba por Brooklyn pensando en la muerte. No porque sea filósofo. Sino porque ya tengo más de noventa, aunque originalmente había planeado llegar como mucho hasta los setenta.
Y de repente —una multitud frente a una sinagoga. Al principio pensé que allí actuaba un famoso psicoanalista. En Nueva York la gente hace cola durante horas para escuchar por qué su madre tiene la culpa de todo. Aunque los judíos eso ya lo saben sin necesidad de conferencia.
Pero no. Estaban gritando algo sobre “intifada”. ¿Y saben qué me sorprendió más? La cantidad de energía que tiene esa gente. ¿De dónde la sacan? Yo después de subir dos tramos de escaleras ya empiezo a escribir mi testamento. Y ellos listos para una revolución sin haberse tomado ni un café decente.
Un tipo gritaba algo sobre “descolonización”. Dios mío. Cuando yo era joven, “colonización” significaba que la tía Frieda ocupaba nuestro sofá durante tres meses y se negaba a irse. Hoy de repente es una conspiración sionista.
En general, el antisemitismo moderno se ha vuelto demasiado intelectual. Antes simplemente nos odiaban. Sin rodeos. Hoy no.
Hoy alguien con bufanda, que parece que escribe poemas sobre su propia barba, te explica con ayuda de Heidegger y Nietzsche por qué la existencia de los judíos es una forma de agresión y una amenaza para la humanidad.
Y yo estaba allí pensando: antes al menos nos pegaban personas sin título universitario. Hoy los organizadores de pogromos tienen diploma de Columbia University.
Luego una chica a mi lado dijo: “Estamos contra el sionismo, no contra los judíos”. Eso es como si mi exmujer hubiera dicho: “No tengo nada contra ti. Solo estoy contra todo lo que dices, haces, sientes —y especialmente contra acostarme contigo”. El significado es el mismo.
Y entonces alguien gritó: “¡Los sionistas son nazis!”. En ese momento sentí que mi abuela se habría girado en su tumba tan rápido que podría haber abastecido de electricidad parte de Queens.
Mi abuela, por cierto, vivió a auténticos nazis. Se escondió en un sótano en Polonia con un hombre que tosía tan fuerte que los alemanes podrían haberlos encontrado solo por el sonido bronquial.
Y ahora un chico de una universidad de élite, cuyo mayor trauma en la vida es un café frío de Starbucks, me explica qué significa fascismo.
Realmente vivo en tiempos sorprendentes.
Hoy la gente habla como si se hubiera tragado accidentalmente una biblioteca universitaria. Nadie dice ya: “Perdón, soy un idiota”. No. Hoy se dice: “Estoy deconstruyendo el relato dominante”.
Escuchen, yo crecí entre judíos. Nosotros no deconstruimos relatos. Nosotros creamos relatos.
Llegué a casa y encendí la televisión —porque cuando uno tiene ansiedad, la televisión parece una idea excelente. Es como tratar el alcoholismo con un martini con hielo.
Allí Roger Waters volvía a explicar el mundo. Los músicos de rock siempre me dan miedo cuando envejecen y empiezan a hablar como paranoicos que ven conspiraciones al mirar un gato negro.
Luego apareció Kanye West. En mi infancia, los locos al menos parecían locos. Pelo despeinado, abrigo, palomas, conversaciones con cubos de basura. Este tipo simplemente se pone una máscara negra y dice que ama a Hitler. Y ahí entendí: la humanidad ha avanzado mucho —de “nunca más” a “discutamos los matices”.

SHOCKING NEW STUDY: Sunscreen USERS Face DRAMATICALLY HIGHER Skin Cancer Risk
A massive UK Biobank analysis of 470,000+ people just revealed:
- Invasive Melanoma: +292% higher risk
- Basal Cell Carcinoma: +140% higher risk
- Squamous Cell Carcinoma: +126% higher risk
These alarming signals held strong even after adjusting for age, sex, skin type, tanning ability, sunburn history, sunlamp use, and time spent outdoors.
You slather on hormone-disrupting chemicals that get absorbed into your bloodstream… block vitamin D (your body’s #1 cancer shield)… and end up with*triple the melanoma risk?
Sunburns are bad — but this “protection” is making things far worse.
Time to ditch the chemical cocktails. Sensible sun + mineral zinc if needed. Your skin deserves better.
This Saturday marks the 125th anniversary of the Panic of 1901. In a rampant bull market coming out of the recovery from the panic in 1893, steel, iron, and railroad companies began to make huge advances on the exchanges.
In an effort to gain voting control of the Northern Pacific (NoPac) Railway, JP Morgan and James J. Hill, the president of the Great Northern Railroad, began buying blocks of NoPac on the open market. But they weren't the only ones looking for control of NoPac.
Edward Harriman, president of the Union Pacific Railroad, also wanted to control the company.
The result was an all out battle of attrition to see who could throw more money at the stock for ultimate control. In early May, JP Morgan and Hill won control and announced they would merge together NoPac, the Great Northern, and the Burlington railroad, three of the largest railroads of the day.
Traders had been selling the stock short on its relentless march upwards, believing the stock to be far overvalued. On May 6, 1901, they collectively saw their financial souls exit their bodies and rise up to the great brokerage in the sky when NoPac shares erupted skywards nearly 20% the day the merger was announced.
Sensing the impending doom, investors and traders sold, or were sold out of other positions in an effort to shore up capital to pay for their exorbitant losses in NoPac. But the carnage had only just begun.
The very next day, May 7, 1901, the stock rose another 12%. The day after, it reached 25% higher intraday. Then, on May 9, 1901, the wildest day that Wall Street had seen in its 100+ year history to that point caused sheer panic and pandemonium as shares of NoPac, which traded as low as $16 in 1898, and closed at $160 the prior day, reached highs between $700-$1000 in some transactions.
Short-sellers, desperate to save their financial lives, were willing to buy back their borrowed shares at almost any price. The chaos sent shares of many other stocks down violently. The higher NoPac soared, the lower other stocks fell.
US Steel, which had only began trading as the most valuable company in the world just over a month earlier, saw its value drop over 45% intraday.
While the bull market didn't completely die that day as stocks like Missouri Pacific and General Electric soon reached new highs, most stocks didn't have a significant rally for a number of years. US Steel eventually collapsed to $7 in 1904 before returning to a strong rally but it didn't make a new high until 1908.
The corner of NoPac essentially marked the end up the bull market in spectacular fashion. The bull market of 1897-1901 was also the last great railroad-driven speculative boom on the exchanges. All future bull markets would be dominated by industrials like steel, copper, automobiles, and others.
The man who called the 2008 housing collapse just made a prediction about Elon Musk that is hard to ignore (Save this).
Steve Eisman, the Big Short investor says he fully expects Musk to use the SpaceX IPO stock price to buy Tesla and merge both companies into one giant entity called X.
Tesla's earnings have declined for four consecutive years.
The EV business, Eisman argues, is not structurally attractive but rather is capital intensive, it is highly competitive, and China is producing electric vehicles at costs Tesla simply cannot match.
The issue with using SpaceX stock to buy Tesla is precisely what it sounds like.
SpaceX is about to list as what would be the largest IPO in history, targeting a valuation around $1.77 trillion, with a thesis built on orbital compute, Starlink and the future of AI infrastructure.
Tesla is a car company with four years of declining earnings, competing on price against manufacturers who have a structural cost advantage.
Combining those two businesses would force SpaceX shareholders to absorb Tesla's problems, its margin pressure, its China exposure, its capital requirements at the exact moment SpaceX is trying to tell the cleanest possible growth story to public markets.
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.
