This is a sad trend for people and society.

It’s been proven for many years now: building a committed relationship with one person and then raising children in that nuclear two-parent family contributes more to creating healthy, happy adults and a well functioning society than anything else (ie wealth vs poverty, health history, zip code, race).

So the implication of the trend below, if it doesn’t self correct are terrible for society as a whole:

1) there will be more and more promiscuity and, as a byproduct, less kids born

2) what few kids we do have will grow up in non two parent households

It may seem “fun” and “free” to be a 20/30 something with a roster, but many of these folks will wake up alone, too late to act on the simple truth that being in a committed relationship and having kids is not an indulgence of a thriving society but a requirement.

I was ashamed to hear the recent testimony of 3 top university presidents. In my personal opinion, it was one of the most despicable moments in the history of U.S. academia. The 3 Presidents were offered numerous opportunities to condemn racist, antisemitic, hate rhetoric and refused doing so hiding behind calls for “context.” The memories of my father’s parents, Abraham and Rachel Bourla, his brother David and his little sister Graciela, who all died in Auschwitz, came to mind. I was wondering if their deaths would have provided enough “context” to these presidents to condemn the Nazis' antisemitic propaganda.

And because dehumanization of the victims makes it easier to “set your own context” and justify anything, here is a picture of Graciela Bourla, who was exterminated in the concentration camp at the age of 17. Unfortunately, no pictures of my grandparents and uncle survived. I still wonder what they looked like.

The more I train jiu jitsu, the more I realize how much jiu jitsu I don’t know. And jiu jitsu is just one small thing in a whole universe of things. Since there are few things I do as consistently and frequently as jiu jitsu, I really don’t know anything about anything.

The American dietary guidelines have worked exceedingly well at keeping us healthy. Clearly, the group that developed them had our best interests at heart, and after decades of seeing the results, have found no need to change their guidance.

@therabbithole @jimjimmiejames This is a major problem. I will be actively lobbying to criminalize making severe, irreversible changes to children below the age of consent.

Shame on those who advocate this! It is utterly contemptible.

🚩 Col. Douglas Macgregor Says What's Coming Next in Ukraine is 'Very Serious'

"Russian intelligence has always known where everything is you cannot hide from this overhead surveillance. They've got the equivalent to the National Security Agency and the equivalent of the CIA. They can see everything and hear everything. So now they can systematically go after all of these headquarters filled with the so-called decision makers. I think that's just the beginning."

Joe Rogan endorsed Ron Paul on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in December 2011. At the time, polls put Ron Paul first or second in the Republican primary.

“He’s the only one that makes any sense to me. Everybody else is just saying the same thing, they’re just rearranging the order of the words. It’s the same rhetoric I’ve heard for years and years. He’s the only one that really is proposing a real radical restructuring of the way we do things.” - @joerogan x @RonPaul x @jayleno

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

Instead of championing free speech, the U.S. actively persecutes journalists and whistleblowers. I’ll pardon brave truth-tellers like Julian Assange and investigate the corruption and crimes they exposed. This isn’t the Soviet Union. The America I love doesn’t imprison dissidents. #FreeAssange #Kennedy24

[The Kobeissi Letter @KobeissiLetter]

Just in 2023 so far, the US government has a larger Federal deficit than 1900 to 1980 combined and inflation adjusted.

The Federal deficit in 2020, after $4 trillion in stimulus was printed, was 220% larger than 2009 after bank bailouts.

Alarming is an understatement.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

The collapse of U.S. influence over Saudi Arabia and the Kingdom’s new alliances with China and Iran are painful emblems of the abject failure of the Neocon strategy of maintaining U.S. global hegemony with aggressive projections of military power. China has displaced the American Empire by deftly projecting, instead, economic power. Over the past decade, our country has spent trillions bombing roads, ports, bridges, and airports. China spent the equivalent building the same across the developing world. The Ukraine war is the final collapse of the Neocon's short-lived “American Century.” The Neocon projects in Iraq and Ukraine have cost $8.1 trillion, hollowed out our middle class, made a laughingstock of U.S. military power and moral authority, pushed China and Russia into an invincible alliance, destroyed the dollar as the global currency, cost millions of lives and done nothing to advance democracy or win friendships or influence.

Attorney General @JeffLandry's opening statement on Missouri v. Biden and the US Government's censorship industrial complex:

"The White House pressured YouTube to reduce watch time of 'borderline' content by 70%, the FBI boasted a 50% success rate in getting platforms to censor misinformation, the Election Integrity Partnership bragged that 35% of URLs shared with Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and YouTube were either labeled, removed or soft blocked.

As a result of this collaboration between social media companies and the CDC, NIH, and NIAID, American citizens, scientists, and journalists were shadowbanned, censored, silenced, and de-platformed for their valid concerns about lockdowns, masks, COVID vaccines, and more."

[RAW EGG NATIONALIST @Babygravy9]

Richard Dawkins' entire career is revealed to be the intellectual equivalent of the Andres Serrano "artwork" Piss Christ (a crucifix suspended in a glass cabinet filled with the artist's own urine). The truth is that Christianity has been an easy target, an open goal for mockery and condemnation, for at least a century. Nothing is risked when an artist or intellectual criticises or even pisses on the central redeeming symbol of Christianity. But see how his mouth (and zipper) closes and remains shut the moment he is asked to comment on another religion, one whose adherents do not turn the other cheek when insulted. I don't know which is worse, Sam Harris and Hunter Biden's dead babies, or this. "Four horsemen" indeed.

Dilution is not a good monetary solution!

[Carson @carson_hess]

Incredibly alarming. Feels like we will soon have to answer for the decades of fiscal irresponsibility of our leaders.

If the US dollar's global supremacy erodes, America will face a reckoning like none before.

My take:

[Wall Street Mav @WallStreetMav]

First CNN does a segment on de-dollarization, now Fox News also.

What is going on here?
