A new world is being birthed. There's no point in trying to fight for keeping the old ways. The only thing we all can do is get in the car and take turns navigating and steering. Without everyone co-operating, we're either going to get lost or crash and burn. 🙄

On this day in history, 16 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto wrote: “Lost coins only make everyone else's coins worth slightly more. Think of it as a donation to everyone.”

The trouble with joining an ideological movement is that it reduces intellectual life to a series of incantations designed affirm membership, followed by unending arguments over proper litmus tests and who is in and out. Huge waste of time and minds. Such movements crush thought.

The great lie is that society is divided between rich and poor.
The great truth, as David Friedberg puts it, is makers vs takers.

Makers build, create, and deliver real value: houses, software, art, businesses, and everything that moves civilization forward.

Takers watch, criticize, analyze, and politic. They push the lie that the rich hoard unfairly so the poor must seize it… all while positioning themselves to rule the chaos.

As @friedberg tells his kids: “At the end of the day, if you made something and someone else valued it, you were a maker. That was an amazing achievement. That is a great day.”

Takers thrive on division. Makers drive progress.

Time to choose your side.

If having a Super Bowl at a different venue every year for 32 years didn't give it away, I don't know what would have.

@IllinoisReview Given that the ownership wants public money to build the stadium, I can't root too hard with either side.

When the federal gov spends more money than it takes in, it is forced to borrow, growing the monetary supply, devaluing the buying power of every dollar in your paycheck.
You can easily make the case that giving all this money away is contributing to making you poorer.

Ready to have your mind blown?

Senator John Kennedy on Elon Musk and DOGE exposing USAID, “I'll tell you what Mr. Musk discovered. I find it fascinating. He discovered:

- He found that the USAID has 10,000 people employees, and every year they give away $40 billion
- He found that the USAID gave money to support electric vehicles in Vietnam. Our money, taxpayer money
- He found that the USAID gave money to a transgender clinic in India. “I didn't know that. I bet you the American people didn't know that”
- He found that USAID gave $1.5 million to a Serbian LGBTQ group, they got $1.5 million to QUOTE, “advanced diversity, equity, inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities”
- They found that USAID spent $164 million to support radical organizations around the world
- They gave $122 million of that to groups aligned with foreign terrorist organizations
- According to this report in Mr. Musk, the USAID has given millions of dollars to quote organizations in Gaza controlled by Hamas
- He found that we gave $2 million, USAID did, for sex changes in Guatemala
- He found that we gave $20 million to produce a new Sesame Street show in Iraq
- He found that we gave $4.5 million of taxpayer money to combat misinformation in Kazakhstan

- Mr. Musk found that we gave $7.9 million of taxpayer money to a project that would teach Sri Lankan journalists to avoid binary gendered language. (The USAID took 8 million bucks and gave it to a bunch of journalists in Sri Lanka to teach them how to avoid binary gendered language)
- USAID gave $1.5 million to promote LGBT advocacy in Jamaica
- They gave $1.5 million to rebuild the Cuban media ecosystem

@EndWokeness I don't know how needs to hear this... but this makes absolutely zero logical sense.

A 3rd place candidate receiving more mail in ballots than the 1st place candidate in the same primary.

It's unheard of.

Mail-ins arriving before Election Day:
🔵 Bass: 38.1%
🔴 Pratt: 27.9%
🔵 Raman: 20%

Mail-ins arriving after Election Day:
🔵 Raman: 37% (+17% surge)
🔵 Bass: 34.9% (-3% drop)
🔴 Pratt: 19% (-9% drop)

Who are we kidding here? This is fraud.

Most Americans know pirates operated in the Caribbean.

Fewer realize the young United States had pirates in the interior.

Not on the ocean.
On the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers.
And for a while, some of the busiest roads in America belonged to them. 🧵
