Today, I officially filed to run for the United States Senate!
Minnesotans are looking for a common-sense leader, not another career politician. I’m running to bring new leadership to Washington and put Minnesota first.
Ro Khanna blames Donald Trump for frustration over the Palisades Fire, which makes perfect sense for one of Congress’ least intelligent members because Trump wasn’t in office yet when the fires happened, and has nothing to do with local permitting delays
🚨 California Passed "The Stop Nick Shirley Act":
This week the California Assembly passed AB 2624. This bill will criminalize investigative journalism involving the immigrant population. It would have made it illegal to expose the Somali "Learing" center if it were in California or the Armenian hospice fraud in LA if they claimed "reasonable fear."
The bill protects "immigration support services providers," which means services provided to immigrants, including health care. It has been proven that millions, potentially billions, of dollars in fraud has taken place in "immigrant support services” which includes nonprofits and NGOs the state funds.
California is trying to make it harder to expose fraud and scare individuals from investigating it as they could be forced and sued to remove the video, forced to pay attorney fees, and ordered to pay a minimum of $4,000 in damages.
This bill was created by Mia Bonta (the attorney general's wife). She has made 4 separate versions of this bill because each version violates the 1st Amendment and is extremely unconstitutional.
Plain and simple, California politicians need the fraud to continue because they depend on the fraud to push their agendas. END ALL THE FRAUD.
Jeff Bezos on NYC spending:
"If we ran Amazon the way New York City runs their school system, packages would take 6 weeks to arrive, we would charge you a $100 delivery fee and when the package did finally arrive, it would have the wrong item in it."
.@SteveHiltonx explains why politicians are naturally drawn to socialism:
It allows politicians to appear generous without actually *being* generous.
While forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for their contrived acts of “generosity,” they impoverish those they claim to help.
Joe Rogan SLAPS around Democratic Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY): “This idea that it’s easy to become a billionaire and that these billionaires somehow or another are the problem because they’re not paying their fair share is so weird. That that’s a narrative that actually gets pushed through when you look at the actual numbers of the tax base and how much they contribute and how many jobs they provide.”
“Yeah, they make more money than everybody else. Right. You could do that too. This is one of the things that America is really good at — you can come from nothing and become incredibly wealthy.”
“We just assume that everybody who makes an incredible amount of money stole it. That they robbed someone.”
“This is a narrative that gets pushed along [by] democratic socialists, that no on achieves that — I think I literally heard AOC say this recently — that no one achieves substantial wealth without somehow or another victimizing other people.”
For 15 years Democrats LOVED California's top-two primary.
It locked Republicans out of every Senate seat.
Every statewide office.
Every major race.
Now Republicans are LEADING the early vote — 990,294 ballots in — and suddenly the rule is "broken" and needs to change.
Mid-election.
That's not a political party.
That's a protection racket.
Gavin Newsom said "break the glass." I'll show you what he meant.

So much for "no kings", right?
CA Governor Newsom was asked about the possibility of ending up with two Republican candidates for governor and no Democrats. His response?
"We all have agencies. We can shape the future… I don’t anticipate this need to be the case, but there is a ‘break the glass scenario.’
There’s many people that have a deep understanding of what it would look like if Democrats were locked out, and we’re going to do everything to make sure that doesn’t happen. I’ll leave it there.”
This is the guy who claims Republicans are a "threat to democracy". Let that sink in.
REPOST this absolutely everywhere.

Chamath Palihapitiya just said what Silicon Valley is terrified to say out loud.
On Joe Rogan. To millions of people. Without flinching.
Chamath: “The only person that we can trust is Elon.”
Not whispered at a dinner party. Not buried in a podcast nobody listens to.
Said on the record. Full weight behind it.
And then he told you why.
Chamath: “I feel like he’s the least corruptible. He’s the most independent thinking. And I think he’s the one that has an actual empathy for people.”
One of the sharpest capital allocators in Silicon Valley history looked at every founder building AI.
Every single one.
And chose the one the media spends the most energy telling you to hate.
That alone should stop you cold.
Chamath: “Then there are folks where there’s just an insane profit motive.”
He’s talking about OpenAI. He’s talking about Google. He’s talking about companies that swallowed billions from Wall Street and now answer to shareholders before they answer to humanity.
Chamath: “They’re less in control of the businesses that they run.”
The people building the most powerful technology in human history do not control their own companies.
Their boards do. Their investors do. Their liquidation preferences do.
And these are the ones we’re trusting with superintelligence.
Chamath: “He’s like, I need to get to Mars.”
This is the fracture line nobody wants to touch.
Every other AI founder is optimizing for the next earnings call. The next funding round. The next quarterly number that keeps the machine fed.
Elon is optimizing for the next planet.
One group builds to satisfy investors. The other builds to survive as a species.
Those aren’t different strategies. Those are different operating systems running on different hardware.
And it changes everything about how you build.
When your time horizon is 90 days, you cut corners. You monetize behavior. You trade safety for speed because the board needs a number by Friday.
When your time horizon is interplanetary, you can’t afford a single shortcut. Because shortcuts don’t survive launch.
Chamath: “Where is this going to end up?”
The only question that matters. And nobody in power wants you asking it.
Because the answer comes down to who gets there first.
If it’s a company owned by Wall Street, superintelligence becomes the most sophisticated extraction engine ever built. Every decision optimized. Every behavior predicted. Every market captured. Not for you. For the balance sheet.
If it’s someone who can’t be bought, pressured, or voted out by a board of directors, there’s at least a chance it bends toward something bigger than quarterly revenue.
History never remembers who built the most powerful technology.
It remembers who controlled it. And what they used it for.
The only founder in AI who cannot be fired by a board, leveraged by an investor, or replaced by a shareholder vote is the one they spend the most energy telling you not to trust.
Ask yourself why.
Gavin Newsom is handing out “free” diapers for newborns - by pumping millions of tax dollars through a nonprofit stocked with his political buddies and campaign donors.
Here’s the truth.
Dave: "Hello caller, you're on the air."
Caller: "I put half my savings into Bitcoin in 2020."
Dave: "Oh no. How much did you lose?"
Caller: "It's up 600%."
Dave: "Well you got lucky. It's not a real asset."
Caller: "What makes something a real asset?"
Dave: "It has to hold value over time."
Caller: "Bitcoin is up 1,000,000% since 2010."
Dave: "That's speculation."
Caller: "I paid off my house with it."
Dave: "..."
Caller: "I thought you liked paying off houses, Dave."
This sounds cool. But wait.
400 diapers will last a family with a newborn approximately five weeks.
The program will cost the state approx. $12.4 million this year alone.
That money will be funneled through a company called Baby2Baby, which will then provide their branded diapers to 400 participating in hospitals (California has over 500 hospitals in total.)
Meaning that instead of lowering taxes and letting families keep their own money to buy essentials like diapers, California takes their money, pumps it through a “nonprofit” that has overhead and whose CEO made $240,000 in 2024, to provide a “free” service available only in certain locations, and that you could have bought yourself for much cheaper.
🚨 WTF?! Minnesota Democrats have voted UNANIMOUSLY to BLOCK a requirement to remove DEAD PEOPLE from the voter rolls, per @GrageDustin
How much more obvious can they make it??!
These people are rigging elections right in front of our faces
Scumbags.
