You are a taker, not a maker. All you’ve done your whole life is take from the makers of the world.
The zero-sum mindset you have is at the root of so much evil. Once you realize that civilization is not zero-sum and that it is about making far more than one consumes, then it becomes obvious that the path to prosperity for all is just let the makers make.
Regarding Tesla, the reality is that I have been given nothing.
However, if I lead Tesla to become the most valuable company in the world by far and it stays that way for 5 years, shareholders voted to award me 12% of what is built. Anyone who wants to come along for the ride can buy Tesla stock.
If Tesla “merely” becomes a $1.999 trillion dollar company, I get nothing. This is a great deal for shareholders, which is why they voted so overwhelmingly to approve this, for which I am immensely grateful.
And they did so by a margin far more than you won your political seat.
Putin says he doesn't fear the UK because, "they can't even stop rubber boats invading their country or foreign men raping their women and kids." He also said the British people hate their leader.
Again, you may not like the UFC thing at the White House, but the moment you hung a giant pride flag from the columns and had half-naked “trans” activists exposing themselves on the lawn, you lost all right to complain about desecration.
🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST DREW THE LINE: SAVE AMERICA ACT OR NO FISA DEAL!
He’s playing hardball with the swamp to lock in real election security. Trump is refusing to back any FISA reauthorization unless the full SAVE AMERICA ACT is firmly attached — protecting American votes from the fraud and chaos that’s been allowed for far too long.
In his own words: A few Democrats are against FISA with or without changes, but he’s against FISA if it doesn’t come with The Save America Act (full version) firmly attached. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
This is how you secure the vote and put America First.
🚨 UPDATE: Sen. Mitch McConnell has been admitted to the hospital and is now receiving care
We need term limits.
McConnell, 84, should’ve been out of office by now and replaced by someone else!
Whoa this is huge.
Arizona’s laughingstock elections might actually be transformed into the “Florida system” where almost all the votes are counted on election night.
The AZ legislature put it on the 2026 ballot for voters to decide and make it a constitutional amendment.
Make it happen, Arizona!

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.
Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.
I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."
"They just come with the table, man."
They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.
This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.
I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.
"Did we…?"
"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."
Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.
My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."
Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.
I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.
Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.
I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.
Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.
🧵 Here is the TRUTH: Dangerous gain-of-function research was funded by the U.S. government around the world, directed and approved by people like Dr Fauci. @DNIGabbard exposed that yesterday.
Using U.S. government data, put together and uncovered by career subject matter experts in the Intelligence Community and other government agencies, yesterday’s release highlighted one example of the many overseas biolabs funded by the U.S., the research conducted there, and the significant risks they pose to the world, especially when located in a country at war.

Most people are unaware it was Gavin Newsom who orchestrated the permanently rigged voter fraud system in California
California used to count ballots within 48 hours to decide election results. Now, thanks to Newsom Voter ID is illegal and Democrats can count for weeks
@balanssage@theswansjr What else would you use to convert fiat to Bitcoin if not the fiat itself? Everyone won’t sell Bitcoin. Bitcoin will go up forever. It’s measured in fiat because everything is measured in fiat.
@jimbobb1978@theswansjr Bitcoin has no government except for the people. Everyone owns Bitcoin, everyone participates, everyone is equal no matter how much they hold.
@allMadeInTiawan@theswansjr Lots of things look like triangles or pyramids. Doesn’t mean they’re pyramid schemes. If you think that makes Bitcoin a pyramid scheme, you haven’t studied Bitcoin or money enough.
