More often than not, tolerating rampant crime in society is a policy choice.
After El Salvador locked up over 1% of its population (87,000 people), the murder rate collapsed from the highest in the world to one of the lowest in the Americas.
No activist judges to abuse the legal system, no human rights NGOs to effectively protect crime qua crime.
Voters handed Bukele the largest landslide in El Salvador’s democratic history with 83% of the vote and his party 58 of 60 legislative seats.
Because at some point, somebody has to say we’ve had enough of living at the mercy of the bottom 1%.
Today!
There are three big stories this morning and they are all related to and downstream of last week's dramatic Yen-tervention by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
The first is something I've expected for weeks now, that the days of the IRGC are nearly over. Reports are now coming out that the Kurds have begun attacking Iran from the north.
Expect similar reports from the east out of Balochistan and to the south by the Arab gulf states. If you were confused by Trump's calling off the attack over the weekend it was, as always, the Arabs being incapable of basic military logistics.
The US has been ready to push for Kharg and/or Qeshm island for a few weeks now, but this has to be a full 'coalition of the willing' to finish off the Non-Agreement Capable Death Cultists known as the IRGC.
The second is the results of the Michigan Senate primary where the establishment DNC cheating machine has a real problem because it failed to stop Abdul El-Sayid from winning via ballot stuffing in Wayne Cty.
Sayid has almost no chance in the general election given his abysmal performance outside of white AWFULs and the cucky hubbies.
The last is why diesel fuel prices remain sticky despite falling oil prices and increased dollar liquidity. 3-2-1 crack spreads remain wide.
Put it together and the question you should be asking is when does Europe's bond markets finally give up pretending they represent anyone's real opinion about risk.

Every step was designed to inflict maximum harm:
• Splicing HIV into a coronavirus.
• Blocking access to hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.
• Removing NAC from Amazon and supermarket shelves.
• No early treatment.
• Ventilators that killed 90% of patients.
• Seeding nursing homes with Covid+ patients.
• Blanket Do-Not-Resuscitate orders for the disabled.
• "15 days to flatten the curve" that slowed the rate of natural immunity.
• Closing schools for two years.
• Masks that reduced oxygen.
• Shutting down gyms.
• Keeping liquor stores open.
• Closing hiking trails and parks thus preventing people from getting vitamin D.
• Remdesivir and Paxlovid that are expensive, useless, and deadly.
• The most toxic and deadly vaccines in history on a new platform that will never work.
• Billions of dollars spent on propaganda to convince people to accept every step of this nefarious plan.
• Firings, censorship, and blacklisting of critical thinkers.
Covid is a world war, launched by the ruling class, against humanity.
Obama, happy birthday and here is my message to you on this day:
You did one hell of a job damaging this country for generations.
You had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring Americans together, but instead, you made racial division your legacy. You poured gasoline on every racial controversy, turned tragedy into politics, demonized law enforcement, and helped convince millions of people that America itself was the enemy.
You did not heal racial tension. You inflamed it.
You did not unite Black and White Americans. You drove a deeper wedge between them and left the country more bitter, suspicious, and divided than you found it.
And while you were weakening America from within, you were empowering our enemies abroad. You gave Iran access to billions through sanctions relief and unfrozen assets, strengthened a regime that funds terrorism and chants “Death to America,” and then expected Americans to call it diplomacy.
You weakened this country, emboldened our enemies, poisoned race relations, and helped create a generation that hates the very nation that gave you the opportunity to become president.
The media can rewrite your legacy all they want, but the American people lived through it.
Happy birthday, Obama.
You promised hope and change, but you delivered division, resentment, weakness, and damage that America may spend generations trying to repair.
"Please do the honorable thing and skip this solemn ceremony."
New York City's Catholic League President Bill Donohue is urging Mayor Zohran Mamdani not to attend this year's 25th anniversary 9/11 commemoration, arguing his presence would be "divisive" and disrespectful to many first responders' families.
"You appear to be more concerned about 'Islamophobia' than you are the bombing."
In a 6-page letter, Donohue—president of the nation's largest Catholic civil rights organization—cites Mamdani's decision not to attend the Veterans Day and Israel Day parades, his past comments about 9/11 and Islam, and the public statements of his father, mother, wife, advisers and political allies.
"More to the point, your reluctance to speak negatively about the role of radical Muslims in fostering oppression and warfare, including the attacks on 9/11, makes you unsuitable to preside over the ceremony honoring these innocent Americans next month."
The Italian American Civil Rights League proved, when you hit a bully back forcefully and unapologetically, they fold.
We condemned Zohran for erasing Little Italy off the map. Millions rallied behind us, and he backtracked.
Zohran then announced that an “ID Card” would be required to access his Government run grocery stores. Millions mocked the irony of this, and he backtracked again.
Moral of the story: people like Zohran are merely Low IQ, pompous, theatre geeks, who ascend into power because they are useful little puppets.
When we fight back. We win.
This is what REAL discrimination looked like.
And do you see Italian Americans now begging for reparations like others?
Italian Americans were OPENLY segregated and marginalized from society in the 1800-1900’s.
Businesses that used Italian labor were publicly barred from getting hired for jobs.
This article is from New Castle News in Pennsylvania.
Racist Commie Mamdani is going to make you show ID in his markets. You want your government-subsidized arugula? Show your papers! Ask for ID to vote? BIGOT!!!
Are you starting to realize what disingenuous lying buffoons these commies are?
Bruce Blakeman has the Italian Americans fired up in Little Italy, NYC!!!🍝🇺🇸🔥
Thanks to Mandami, Hochul is toast in November. Blakeman will be NY’s next governor! 💪💪🙏
…and @tpacchia of @PubKey and I may have just discussed with Bruce the possibility of eliminating the BitLicense in NY over an espresso ☕️ 😜
…more coming soon on the road to making NYC the Crypto Capital !!! 🤫🕺🗽🚀

Milei proving what’s possible
All we need do is demand our elected officials follow suit
We tend to think in terms of “what can never happen” in politics
The truth is, reform CAN happen. We the people just need to put enough pressure on our politicians to make it so.
So let’s get on it
If Trump did not win in 2024, we would not recognize our country today. Just because of the border situation so I will say this again and again…. Republicans are not the answer to your problems, but Democrats are the source of every single one of them.
Vote accordingly in November.
What's happening in Spain should be a warning to every American who may have forgotten about what our borders looked like the last time Democrats were in power: All it takes is one election for your nation to become unrecognizable.
Fauci was never "the 5cience" @Andy
The mission of a genuine scientist is to cultivate a high level of critical thinking coupled with a willingness to be wrong about their existing ideas or theories, recognizing that no science is ever entirely settled.
Coercion is not science
Censorship is not science
Faked data is not science Manipulating results is not science
Cherry-picking studies is not science
Fear-mongering is not science
Fauci is not science
Consensus is not science
Fauci killed many during the AIDS crisis
and millions more with COVID.
You should be embarrassed Andy for your misdiagnosis on this monster.
Portugal is banning burqas and niqabs in public places, with fines up to 4,000 euros.
Muslim men who force their wives or female relatives to wear one will also face 3 years in prison.
Burqas were described as a ‘symbol of women’s oppression and a threat to public safety.’
Larry, you well know that I disagree with that idea that $100-$200 is the base case for oil. If that happens it will be Trump who gets burned because he sold it @ $110 and was looking to buy it back at $70 in a year.
As for $9 gas? No way. We are well supplied with gasoline and diesel. All Trump has to do is suspend excess distillate exports.
The base case for me is this yo-yo'ing around between $75 and $95 for as long as the IRGC and Ukraine keep acting like they have a dog in this hunt.
Watch today's meeting between Zelenskyy and Trump carefully. Same with Bibi.
Did the Legacy Media cover the “Fauci Diary”?
AP: No
CNN: No
WaPo: No
MSNBC: No
NY Times: No
ABC News: No
NBC News: No
NBC News: No
USA Today: No
Etc
Of course not. Not a single word.
They were co-conspirators of his many crimes.
The Legacy Media is the Enemy of the People.
