Le choc ! (cf vidéo ⤵️)

Énorme polémique au Royaume-Uni où le jeune étudiant Henry Nowak, 18 ans, est mort menotté par la police qui refusait d’entendre qu’il venait d’être 4 fois poignardé par un homme qui l’accusait de racisme parce qu’il était blanc.

Les vidéos viennent d’être rendues publiques. Elles sont accablantes pour la police et tout le système idéologique qui sous-tend son action : un système qui inverse victimes et coupables, par « peur d’offenser », par « politiquement correct ».

Plutôt que de s’occuper d’un jeune homme mourant, qui par 9 fois, menotté et maintenu à terre, leur a dit qu’il avait été poignardé et qu’il « n’arrivait plus à respirer », la police a voulu par politiquement correct croire la fausse victime d’un supposé racisme. Fausse victime et vrai meurtrier.

➡️ La colère populaire est immense. Tout l’édifice du politiquement correct s’effondre !
Le renversement des valeurs est pointé du doigt.
Le coupable transformé en victime, c’est fini !

Mark Carney puts Alberta on notice:

"In these separation issues, it is often advanced that vote for this and it's a free option, vote for this and we will strengthen your our hand in a future negotiation. That is a very dangerous bluff. That is a very dangerous bluff."

Imagine that a software company with software developers as their main market advantage wants to keep software developers working.

Microsoft just banned its own engineers from using AI.

The tool was literally costing MORE than the humans it was supposed to replace.

They lied to you about AI adoption and now the whole narrative is blowing up:

Microsoft gave thousands of engineers access to Claude Code six months ago and encouraged them to use it.

Engineers loved it and adoption exploded. But then the invoices arrived.

Token-based pricing means every query, every code review, every debugging session costs money. At scale across 100,000 engineers, the numbers became so large that Microsoft issued an internal order to cancel nearly all Claude Code licenses by end of June and force everyone onto their own cheaper tool instead.

The company that invested $5 billion in Anthropic just told its own people to stop using Anthropic's product because it costs too much.

Uber's story is even worse...

Their CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga told The Information that the budget he planned for the full year was "blown away already" by April.

Uber had rolled out Claude Code in December 2025. By March, 84% of their 5,000 engineers were using it with 70% of all committed code coming from AI systems.

Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Naga himself spent $1,200 in a single two-hour demo session.

The company had even built internal leaderboards ranking engineers by how much AI they used. They literally gamified the spending and then ran out of money.

Now look at what Nvidia's own VP of applied deep learning Bryan Catanzaro said to Axios last month. Direct quote:

"For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees."

This is a VP at the company that SELLS the chips saying that using AI is more expensive than paying humans.

Think about what this means for the entire AI narrative.

Every CEO on every earnings call for the past two years has said the same thing:

AI will make us more efficient, reduce headcount, and cut costs.

The stock market rewarded every company that said it.

Fired workers, stock goes up. Announced AI adoption, stock goes up.

But the actual companies deploying AI at scale are discovering the math doesn't work. The MORE employees use AI, the HIGHER the bill.

Goldman Sachs forecasts a 24x increase in token consumption by 2030 as companies adopt AI agents. Gartner just published a report showing that even though individual token prices will drop 90% by 2030, total enterprise AI costs will go UP because agents consume exponentially more tokens per task than basic tools.

Meta built an internal dashboard called "Claudeonomics" to track which employees use the most AI. Amazon started pushing engineers to "tokenmaxx," their internal term for consuming as many AI tokens as possible.

Both companies are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone.

And Microsoft, the company that bet its entire future on AI, just told 100,000 engineers to stop using the tool they liked best because the per-token bills got out of control.

The companies building AI are telling investors it saves money. The companies using AI are finding out it costs more than the humans it was supposed to replace. And even the company that makes the chips just admitted it through its own VP.

This is the gap nobody on Wall Street is pricing in.

$725 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year across Big Tech. And the first companies to actually deploy these tools at scale are already pulling back because the economics don't work.

What do you think?

[GRANDPA’s FREE ADVICE @GOP_is_Gutless]

Seattle’s proudly communist mayor just got a brutal reality check — and she still doesn’t seem to get it.

Amazon, the company that literally built modern Seattle, is shutting down its Amazon Fresh stores across the city after years of investment and expansion. One of the richest corporations on Earth is walking away from its own backyard with almost no notice.

Employees blindsided.

Neighborhoods losing grocery access.

Empty storefronts spreading.
The mayor had publicly promised that grocery chains “would not be allowed” to abandon communities.

Amazon closed anyway.
This isn’t just about groceries. It’s about what happens when a city makes itself too expensive, too hostile, and too unpredictable for the very businesses that power it.
Amazon didn’t fail Seattle.
Seattle’s leadership failed Seattle.

When the economic engine starts quietly packing up and leaving, the excuses run out fast.

Is this the beginning of a larger exodus, or just one company making a smart business decision?

トランプ大統領がニューヨークで、マムダニ市政を公開処刑で木っ端微塵に！

「税金の85%を払っている人たちが出ていっている。企業も、金持ちも、みんな逃げている。フロリダへ、テキサスへ、テネシーへ。一度去ったら二度と戻らない」

その穴を何で埋めるのか。不法移民だ。「素晴らしい人たちかもしれないが、税金は一切払っていない。あなたたちの金を取っている」

マムダニは市営食料品店に3000万ドルをつぎ込む。税基盤が崩壊しているのに。財政赤字73億ドルなのに。

「街は汚い。犯罪は制御不能だ」トランプ大統領の言葉は、ニューヨーク市民が感じている怒りそのものだ。

社会主義市長が税金を食い潰す。その現実をトランプ大統領がニューヨークの地で叩きつけた。
ーーーーーー
「ひどいことが起きている。しかし、良いことと悪いことを受け入れなければならない。

企業が出ていっている。金持ちが出ていっている。大金を払っている人たちが。これらの大きくて、太って、美しい会社たち、仕事を持ち、金を持っている、そして彼らは去っていく。誰も止めない。

ニューヨークはこれを止めなければ、絶対に元には戻れない。私はあなたたちの味方だ。ワシントンで本来すべき以上にニューヨークを助けている。

税基盤を失えば、ニューヨークは終わりだ。税金の85%を払っている人たちが出ていっている。そして不法移民を受け入れている。

彼らは素晴らしい人たちかもしれないが、税金は一切払っていない。あなたたちの金を取っている。あなたたちの金を取っている。

税金の85〜90%を払う人たちが出ていっている。そして一度去ったら、二度と戻らない。二度と戻らない。誰も電話しない。何もしない。誰も話しかけない。

『お願いだから行かないで、税制を変える、何でもする、行かないで』と言う人間がいない。

それでも彼らは出ていく。フロリダへ。テネシーへ。テキサスへ。サウスカロライナとノースカロライナへ。あちこちに行ってしまう。でも出ていっている。これを止めなければならない。

ニューヨークは素晴らしい場所だ。ブルース（NY州知事選共和党候補）が止める。マイク（共和党下院議員）が止める。みんなが止める。彼らを連れ戻す。

その上、街は汚い。犯罪は制御不能だ。」
