The SAVE America Act is the most important piece of legislation in the history of the Republic. Pass it. Enforce it. Or lose the country.

That isn't hyperbole. That's fact.

This is the actual problem we're fighting. They want a Ministry of Truth and Jensen is in their way.

[Brivael Le Pogam @brivael]

Let's connect the dots.

In a matter of days: The Economist runs a headline saying Jensen Huang must resign, and that his shouldn't be the only head to roll. An influential newsletter in "AI safety" circles demands the same. Lawmakers call for him to go. The new Democratic Congress announces a flood of AI bills. One congresswoman wants, on day one, a pause on advanced AI and a ban on superintelligence. A bill proposes a federal agency that would decide who is allowed to build models.

And the target at the center of it all is the man supplying the chips for the entire AI revolution. The one publicly defending open models. The one fighting restrictions in Washington.

I'm not saying the scandal is made up. I'm saying: look at who is using it, and for what.

To understand, you have to ask one question. What does the power of what I call the globalists actually rest on?

Not money. Not weapons. A monopoly: the monopoly on expertise.

The technocracy in Brussels and Washington, the big international institutions, the NGOs, the major newsrooms, the consulting firms: the whole system lives off an asymmetry. They know, you don't. They read the 400-page reports, you don't. They interpret the numbers, you live with the consequences. They write the rules, and you pay lawyers to understand them.

Hayek saw it: central power feeds on the pretense of a knowledge no one really has. For decades, that pretense was impossible to challenge. It took years of study, networks, resources.

Now imagine superintelligence.

Any citizen can audit a budget in ten minutes. Read an EU directive and see every consequence. Check an official statistic. Tear apart a junk study. Draft a legal challenge. Build a company alone, without asking anyone for permission.

The asymmetry disappears. And with it, the monopoly.

We've seen this movie before. Before Gutenberg, the Church held the monopoly on interpreting the texts. The printing press put the Bible in everyone's hands, and a century later, all of Europe had changed. AI is the printing press of expertise. And the people holding the monopoly know it.

So they do what every threatened elite has always done. They don't fight the technology head-on. They slow it down. They regulate it. They license it. And when they can't stop it, they try to own it.

Every scandal becomes a lever. Every fear becomes an argument. Every incident becomes a bill.

And here's the part almost everyone misses.

People will say: "So it's a conspiracy?" No. It's much worse.

Nobody needs to coordinate. When an entire caste feels its monopoly threatened, every one of its members spontaneously does the same thing, at the same time, for the same reasons. The columnist, the regulator, the activist, the politician. No secret meeting required. All it takes is a shared interest.

The scary part isn't that it's coordinated. It's that it doesn't need to be.

That's why this goes far beyond Jensen Huang. If you can take down the most strategic person in global tech in a week, the message to every builder is clear: accelerate, and you're next.

Pareto said history is a graveyard of aristocracies.

The aristocracy of expertise can feel itself heading there.

Superintelligence won't ask them for permission.

[InfantryDort @infantrydort]

Nah man. I’m not gonna let this go unchecked. As a GWOT veteran I can’t.

I listened to Massie drone through his articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth and I recognized the sickness immediately.

We fought under this ridiculous worldview during GWOT, and it cost us dearly.

Massie is merely an acolyte of the bloodless bureaucratic religion that puts the lawyer in the center of the kill chain, treats every American use of force like a moral emergency, and somehow always finds more sympathy for the enemy being hunted than for the American sent to hunt him.

His whole speech I began wondering who he actually was speaking for, and that’s not good.

GWOT vets know EXACTLY where that road leads. Another approval. Another review. Another JAG opinion. Another commander afraid to make a decision because one bad headline will destroy his career faster than losing the fight ever could.

We were lectured for years about “courageous restraint.” We were told that killing one enemy might create ten more. We were taught to fear our own lethality while the enemy studied our hesitation.

And then we spent twenty years bleeding into the fucking sand.

So spare me the sermon about how dangerous it is to remove lawyers who think their job is to become a veto point over command. Spare me the sudden reverence for process from people who watched Afghanistan collapse, watched thirteen Americans die at Abbey Gate, watched the Taliban retake Kabul, and somehow found no constitutional apocalypse worthy of impeachment then.

Now the outrage is that the machine is actually being used. That commanders are expected to command. And that enemies are being treated like…. actual enemies for once.

That civilian leadership is telling the bureaucracy to get the hell out of the way of lawful military action.

From where I sit, the betrayal isn’t that Washington finally found some aggression for a chang. The realest betrayal is that men like Massie still think the lesson of the GWOT was that we needed more hesitation.

No. WE NEEDED MORE VICTORY.

And I’m done pretending those are the same thing. We’re all done with it. Massie is dead wrong here, he knows it, you know it, and I know it.

Sincerely,
-A seriously disgruntled GWOT vet who knows Hegseth is the cure to what ails our military here.

Hi. Meteorologist here.

This is nonsense. We have not entered a “new age of climate extremes.”

There is no such thing as a “supersized El Niño” and the planet isn’t being “superheated” by climate change either.

First, the correct meteorological term is “very strong El Niño.”

Second, El Niño a natural part of Earth’s internal weather and climate variability. It is just the positive (warm) phase of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Correspondingly, La Niña is the negative (cool) phase.

The atmospheric circulation component of ENSO in the tropical Pacific is the “Southern Oscillation.” But the resulting warming (cooling) sea surface temperature (SST) response is El Niño (La Niña).

Normally, the thermocline (a transition layer separating warmer mixed water at the surface from cooler water below) in the Pacific Ocean slopes down towards the west. This means that the western Pacific usually has a deep, warm mixed layer of water extending downward from the surface, while the eastern Pacific has a relatively shallow mixed layer. These are “ENSO neutral” conditions.

The sloped nature of the thermocline is maintained by easterly wind stress on the equatorial Pacific ocean surface. The strength of the easterlies is determined by the balance between convection (upward motion) over Indonesia and subsidence (downward motion) in the central and eastern Pacific.

During La Niña, easterlies are stronger than normal because convection is displaced further west. Lower pressure over the Maritime Continent and higher pressure over Tahiti results in a strongly positive SOI index. Higher wind stress pushes even more warm surface water westward, resulting in the formation of an even larger warm pool in the west Pacific near Asia, which steepens the thermocline. This enhances divergence, leading to upwelling of cool, nutrient-rich water in the central and eastern Pacific.

However, if convection moves eastward over the Pacific, the easterlies weaken or even locally reverse (we call these “westerly wind bursts”) and thermocline begins to flatten, allowing warmer water in the west Pacific to slosh eastward, creating a deeper pool of warm water in the central and eastern Pacific. This is El Niño, and this is occurring right now.

The state of ENSO is quantified using the SST anomalies [relative to the most recent 30-year mean; currently, we use 1991–2020] along the equatorial belt. The main area for which SSTAs are monitored is the Niño 3.4 region, which runs from the 120–170th meridians of longitude and 5° north or south of the equator (5°N–5°S, 170°W–120°W). If the three-month averaged SSTA in Niño 3.4 is at least +0.5°C (+0.9°F), then El Niño is declared. If the three-month averaged SSTA is at least −0.5°C (−0.9°F), La Niña is declared.

El Niño (La Niña) events are classified as either being “weak,” “moderate,” “strong,” or “very strong” depending on how far above (below) average SSTs in Niño 3.4 have been for the last three months.

If the three-month averaged SSTA is +0.5–0.99°C (−0.5°C to −0.99°C), then the El Niño (La Niña) is weak.

If it's +1–1.49°C (−1°C to −1.49°C), then the El Niño (La Niña) is moderate.

If it's +1.5–1.99°C (−1.5°C to −1.99°C), then the El Niño (La Niña) is strong.

If it's ≥ +2.0°C (≤ −2.0°), then the El Niño (La Niña) is very strong.

The latest data from CDAS indicate that the Niño 3.4 region is currently +2.9°C (relative to 1991–2020). This means that we are in “very strong El Niño” territory.”

And this has happened several times before. Very Strong El Niños occurred in 1790–93, 1827–28, 1844–45, 1890–91, 1925–26, 1982–83, 1997–98, and 2015–16.

You are nothing but an ignorant, agenda-driven clown.

[DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican]

Every Republican legislature in America should immediately pass legislation to:

1) Ban sanctuary cities
2) Ban Ranked Choice Voting
3) Ban ballot harvesting
4) Require citizenship to vote
5) Require photo ID to vote
6) Ban the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact
7) Ban foreign entities from buying property
8) Suspend any gas taxes
9) Institute school choice
10) Abolish property taxes
11) Open non-juror records to public inspection
12) Mandate secretaries of state to share complete voter registration rolls with DOJ
13) Mandate voter roll list maintenance
14) Offer rewards for convictions involving fraudulent use of Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, Social Security, or other entitlements

Republican governors would be wise to use this time to convene special sessions.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Dear President Trump,

You cannot trust a deal with the democrats.

You gave Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX) a full, unconditional pardon.

What was the reward for your generosity? He ran for re-election as a democrat to help flip the House from 🟥🔜🟦.

You won the popular vote in 2024 because one of your biggest campaign promises was the largest deportation force.

Remember: Democrats are so dishonest that they purposefully sought a candidate with the same name as incumbent Republican Senator Dan Sullivan for the purpose of confusing voters.

An amnesty deal would be a blight & irreparable blemish on your legacy & American history.

I say this with the utmost of respect & — if I didn’t care, then I wouldn’t say anything.

Your base, your supporters, does not want amnesty.

[The SCIF @TheSCIF]

ARIZONA election worker comes forward with allegations of ELECTION FRAUD exposing that 153,404 ballots were sent to adjudication with 54.7% flagged as overvotes, which is an extremely high number.

An inside Maricopa County ballot adjudicator claims she witnessed GOP votes for Andy Biggs systematically tossed as "overvotes," which gave the 2026 Arizona governor's race to Katie Hobbs.

The number of ballots flagged and adjudicated from Nov. 1-6 is extremely alarming.

- 153,404 ballots sent to adjudication.
- 54.70% flagged as overvotes.
- 27.82% ambiguous, 17.27% write-in.

Journalist Rachel Alexander, a former Maricopa elections attorney, was contacted by the election worker about the ongoing anomalies.

The Arizona ballot adjudicator claims she witnessed
Republican ballots marked for Biggs & Hobbs, with an X through the Biggs oval, which were then treated as overvotes.

Adjudicators then strip the Biggs vote, reading the X as not what the voter intended to mark as their selection, which then awarded it to Hobbs.

Dual marks for Biggs plus Lombardo create overvotes where neither vote counts, cancelling them both out. This same pattern was appearing on Prop 144 and other races.

The election worker also noted that the ballots weren't stored in a secure location and were just in a hallway out in the open.

Maricopa County officials have not yet commented as these are new allegations being looked into, and 100% should be looked into, immediately.

The amount of flagged overvotes and adjudicated ballots in this race should tell you everything you need to know.
