We should nuke the filibuster to pass the SAVE America Act.

If we don’t have the votes to nuke the filibuster, we should put the SAVE America Act on the floor and debate it until it passes, requiring filibustering senators to speak and making clear that if they stop speaking, we can “call the question” and pass it with a simple majority.

If for some reason we can’t do that—and to be clear, there’s no legitimate reason why we can’t—then we should use budget reconciliation to pass it.

But not passing the SAVE America Act is not an option.

Neither is taking a lengthy recess without doing any of the above.

@DavidJHarrisJr No. You play any sport against persons of your own genotype, period. If you want to play as anything else it’s in a separate league with like minded persons.

Les temps durs créent des hommes forts.
Les hommes forts créent des temps de paix.
Les temps de paix créent des hommes faibles.
Les hommes faibles créent des temps durs.

Mai 68 n’était pas qu’une fête.
C’était le moment où une génération a décidé que la force, la responsabilité et la transmission étaient des oppressions.
On a remplacé la verticalité par le sentiment, l’exigence par la compassion sélective, la réalité par le récit.

Cette logique a mûri.
Elle s’est appelée féminisation de la société, puis wokisme.
Elle a transformé la faiblesse en vertu morale et la lucidité en crime.
Résultat : des institutions qui tremblent devant la violence, des gouvernements qui préfèrent gérer l’émotion plutôt que protéger, des peuples qui regardent des massacres se répéter en se demandant pourquoi « on ne fait rien ».

On y est.
Les temps durs sont déjà là.
Ils ne demandent plus la permission.

Ceux qui voient encore clair ne sont pas des extrémistes.
Ils sont simplement restés adultes.
Plus on attend que le cycle fasse son travail tout seul, plus la correction sera brutale.
Parce que la nature ne négocie pas avec les idéologies qui refusent de la regarder.

Les gouvernements globalistes qui ont nourri cette fragilité partent déjà.
Pas par magie.
Parce que la réalité les expulse.

Le vrai choix n’est pas entre douceur et violence.
Il est entre rester faible en attendant que le chaos décide pour nous…
ou redevenir forts assez tôt pour reconstruire avant que tout s’effondre.

Les bâtisseurs ont toujours gagné à la fin.
Cette fois ne sera pas différente.

Earth is still bound to the Late Cenozoic Ice Age, and our planet's average global temperature still hovers around a very livable 15°C.

This is far below the world's long-term planetary average of 18°C to 24°C - seen throughout most of Earth's biological history. It makes the idea of a global warming crisis seem out of sync with reality.

Despite four decades of continuous climate alarmism, roughly 10% of the Earth's total land area remains permanently capped by glacial ice, which covers 15 million square kilometers (5.8 million square miles).

That is nearly a third of its extent during the peak of the Last Glacial Maximum (26,000 to 19,000 years ago), when continental ice sheets reached their historical zenith.

The Antarctic ice sheet remains the largest and thickest body of ice on the planet, extending up to 4.8 kilometers (about 3 miles) deep. It holds roughly 90% of global ice volume and accounts for 85% of total glacial land cover. Spanning 14 million square kilometers (5.4 million square miles), Antarctica alone makes up 8.3% of Earth's total land surface.

A basic geographical reality is often forgotten: land comprises a mere 28% of the planet's surface. All human cities, towns, and infrastructure combined occupy just 1% to 3% of that land (while deserts take up 33% and forests 31%).

We live on an ocean world, and waters cover 72% of the globe to an average depth of 2.3 miles.

Crucially, the oceans hold 86% of the global carbon reservoir and absorb over 90% of retained thermal energy. By contrast, the atmosphere holds a fraction of a percent of each. The oceans—not human industrial activity—serve as the true long-term regulatory engine for atmospheric carbon dioxide and global climate stability.

The current Quaternary Glaciation is part of an ice age cycle that began 34 million years ago with the thermal isolation and glaciation of Antarctica, later intensified by the closure of the Isthmus of Panama and orbital variations (Milankovitch cycles).

Carbon dioxide was not the driver of these immense shifts.

All of human civilisation, agriculture and technological progress has unfolded within a brief, warm respite: the Holocene interglacial period, which began just 11,700 years ago.

Yet for 40 years, the narrative has been dominated by a campaign driven by an unaccountable bureaucratic authority—the United Nations—pushing an agenda of global control.

The promised catastrophe of runaway, unprecedented warming never arrived.

@AndreasSteno What a stupid post. The reason for the lower than expected life expectancy in the U.S. has nothing to do with the expertise of our practitioners or how well we treat disease it has to do with our high rates of traumatic death, drug addiction, and suicide.

Je suis dans un train "climatisé" où il fait 26 degrés. Le wifi ne marche pas. Personne ne bronche.

Et c'est ça qui me fascine le plus : pas la panne, mais l'acceptation collective.

L'État socialiste a réussi un tour de force psychologique. Il nous a fait intérioriser qu'un service médiocre, payé une fortune, c'est normal. Que c'est même ça, le "service public".

Le même service dans un marché libre coûterait une fraction du prix. Et si la clim tombait en panne, vous seriez remboursé dans l'heure, parce qu'un concurrent attend juste à côté que vous changiez de crémerie.

Faites la liste de tout ce que l'État touche :

L'école : effondrement du niveau, profs en burnout, classement PISA en chute libre. L'hôpital : des mois d'attente, des couloirs pleins de brancards, des soignants qui fuient. Le transport : retards, pannes, grèves, prix qui explosent. La justice : des années pour un jugement. La police : débordée, démoralisée.

Budgets colossaux. Prélèvements records d'Europe. Résultat : tout est pourri.

Pourquoi ?

Parce qu'il manque deux choses que seul le marché fournit : le skin in the game et les prix.

Le skin in the game d'abord. Un entrepreneur qui livre un service pourri fait faillite. Il perd SON argent, SA réputation, SES années de travail. Un bureaucrate qui gère mal un service public ne perd rien. Il sera promu, muté, ou au pire il attendra sa retraite. L'échec n'a aucune conséquence personnelle. Donc l'échec se répète, indéfiniment.

Les prix ensuite. Hayek l'a montré : les prix de marché sont un système d'information. Chaque prix agrège des millions de décisions individuelles et signale où allouer les ressources. Quand l'État fixe les prix ou subventionne à perte, il détruit ce signal. Plus personne ne sait ce qui vaut quoi. On arrose au hasard, on gaspille, et on appelle ça de "l'investissement public".

C'est pour ça que le bureaucrate est le pire locataire possible de vos impôts : il dépense l'argent des autres, pour les autres. Ni incitation à économiser, ni incitation à bien servir. Milton Friedman avait résumé ça en une phrase : c'est la pire des quatre façons de dépenser de l'argent.

Le problème n'est pas tel ministre, tel gouvernement, telle réforme. Le problème est structurel. Un monopole sans concurrence, sans prix, sans skin in the game, produira TOUJOURS de la médiocrité. Peu importe qui le dirige. Peu importe le budget.

Si vous avez compris ça, vous avez compris 90% de l'économie politique.

Alors faites une chose simple : expliquez-le à vos proches. Au prochain train en retard, à la prochaine attente aux urgences, posez la question : "qui perd de l'argent quand ce service est mauvais ?" Réponse : personne. Voilà le problème.

L'information finira par se propager. Et un jour, collectivement, on arrêtera de gober.

Le problème, c'est l'État. Toujours.

@brivael @BillyMericano @adrienbis Ludwig von Mises and Murray Rothbard is more accurate, I think.

[Krzysztof Szczawinski 🇵🇱 @Kristof_Poland]

Media and universities — captured by statist assumptions for a century — have lied to you about capitalism.

Not “gotten it wrong.” Lied. On the most important question in modern economic history: what actually causes crises.

The lie fits in one sentence: “Economic crises prove capitalism is unstable and the state must regulate it.”
The truth is the exact opposite.

1929. Official story: unregulated capitalism ran wild.
Reality: the Fed expanded the money supply 60% between 1921 and 1929, fueling a mechanical stock bubble. After the crash, the Fed then contracted the money supply 30%. A normal correction became a decade-long depression, worsened by price controls, tariffs, and New Deal interventions. Unemployment stayed above 15% until 1940. Countries that let markets adjust (Canada, Australia) recovered in three years.
Culprit: the Fed plus Roosevelt-era interventionism.

2008. Official story: deregulated Wall Street blew up the system.
Reality: the Community Reinvestment Act forced banks to lend to insolvent borrowers. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac bought subprime debt in bulk with an implicit Treasury guarantee – no private bank would have carried that risk otherwise. Greenspan held rates at 1% for four years. The SEC blessed fraudulent AAA ratings under a regulatory monopoly. The state was present at every stage.
Culprits: the Fed, Congress, Fannie/Freddie, the SEC.

The euro crisis (2010-2012).
Official story: Greece and Spain lived beyond their means.
Reality: the euro let Greece borrow at German rates with zero fiscal discipline. The currency itself — a political project defying monetary theory — manufactured the crisis.
Culprit: the European Commission and ECB.

The inflation surge (2020-2023).
Official story: Ukraine, COVID, supply chains.
Reality: the Fed printed $4.5 trillion in 18 months, the ECB €3.5 trillion, governments handed out checks with no productive output behind them. Money supply in the US rose 40% in two years. Inflation was mathematically locked in before it ever showed up in prices. The war was the excuse, not the cause.
Culprits: the Fed, the ECB, governments.

The pattern is identical every time: a bureaucrat distorts prices – rates, money, guarantees, regulation. Bad investment accumulates quietly for years. It explodes and hits savers and the middle class. Media blame “the market.” Universities produce the papers that justify more state power as the cure. The next crisis gets seeded.

This isn’t an accident. It’s an industrial cycle of state-manufactured crises, laundered by media and academia.

Why has the lie held for a century?
Because universities, media, and administration are all funded, directly or indirectly, by the state – and each has a structural interest in concluding that the answer to everything is more state. No publicly-funded academic writes that public funding is the problem. No subsidized journalist writes that subsidies corrupt journalism. No senior civil servant writes that the administration itself is the harm. The bias is not only ideological. It’s economic. Telling the truth means sawing off the branch they’re sitting on.

That’s a hundred years of a lie that was never — could never be — seriously challenged from inside the institutions that produce it.

The age of AI can finally change that.
Javier Milei is already showing us how it’s done.
