After their bill had passed and millions of Epstein files were released, Massie and Khanna spent some time reviewing the files and then went straight to a press conference.

They were in a massive hurry to declare that they "caught" the DOJ. They spent the majority of the press conference boasting about the "coverup" that they had discovered.

Massie and Khanna said they found six men who were being protected in the files. They didn't take a couple days to sort it out and make sure that they were correct. Instead, they immediately held a press conference.

Khanna praised Massie for using his "MIT logic" to find the "coverups."

Massie was asked at the press conference how he knew that the men were guilty of crimes. Listen to his answer. It's gibberish. He said he found a list of 20 names and photos (including Epstein), saw some foreign names and figured out by the corresponding photos that they were men and therefore concluded they had to be guilty.

The very next day Ro Khanna read these names on the House floor and then they both went on TV to talk about these six people. He and Massie ended up defaming innocent people.

A politician found some redactions and photos, immediately held a press conference without knowing anything else about the what he had found, and then falsely accused innocent men. That's the least "libertarian" thing ever. It's exactly the type of thing that most libertarians would be outraged about but because it was Massie, they don't care.

The Soviet whaling fleet killed 180,000 whales between 1948 and 1973, delivering rotten carcasses that nobody wanted to eat. Soviet citizens had zero demand for whale meat. The ships hunted anyway, fulfilling quotas handed down from central planners who counted tons of dead whale as economic output.

This was bureaucratic box-checking that nearly drove multiple whale species to extinction. Soviet whalers targeted endangered right whales and humpbacks specifically because they were larger, helping them hit tonnage targets faster. The meat rotted on deck during long voyages back to port, where officials dutifully recorded the numbers and sent reports to Moscow declaring another successful harvest.

Central planners measured success in tons harvested, not consumer satisfaction or long-term sustainability. Factory managers got promoted for exceeding whale quotas, regardless of whether anyone actually wanted whale meat (they didn't). The feedback mechanism that normally connects production to human needs had been severed entirely. When bureaucrats replace market prices with administrative targets, you get mass slaughter with zero purpose.

You still see this today every time politicians promise to "create jobs" in industries that lose money year after year. When government agencies measure their success by dollars spent rather than problems solved. When university administrators chase enrollment numbers instead of student outcomes.

Remove the profit motive and price signals, and you get 180,000 dead whales rotting in the sun while commissars celebrate meeting their targets. You don't get rational planning.

Socialism is fundamentally destructive to the environment and inevitably leads to ecological disasters.

Last week Candace Owens told the world the Daily Wire had laid off over 50% of its workforce — then updated it to “60% absolute bloodbath.”

I’m sure it will shock you to learn those figures aren’t anywhere close to the truth.

But there’s a much bigger story beyond Candace’s "mistaken" reporting.

The story is how lying has become the default operating system for huge swaths of both legacy media and the new online right. The Grift Industrial Complex rewards speed, sensationalism, and telling the audience exactly what it wants to hear over anything resembling journalistic standards, due diligence, or basic honesty.

I know this world because I helped build part of it. We broke past the old gatekeepers for good reason. The old gatekeepers broke all of their own standards.

But too few in new media even have standards to break.

They say bad money drives out good.

It turns out bad journalism does too.

No, Christianity does not promote or require socialism. And it is not at odds with capitalism.

The idea that socialism is a biblical model requires you to ignore the difference between willing generosity and forced redistribution. When the early church in Acts shared resources, it was voluntary; it wasn't mandated by the state. Peter acknowledged private property rights and so did the ten commandments. Stealing is only wrong if private property ownership is a given. Same with coveting.

All virtues require freedom, including charity. Socialism removes the freedom and kills the virtue. If the state takes your wealth and gives it to someone else, you've been taxed. You haven't been "generous" because it had nothing to do with your heart.

Capitalism creates wealth — so there's something to share — and respects our individual freedom to share it. The charity that results from the wealth that's created is real charity; it's actually an act of loving one's neighbor. And it isn't just theoretical or idealistic. Free markets paired with Christian values have produced the wealthiest, freest, and most generous societies in history.
