🚨 WE ARE WATCHING AN EXTRAORDINARY PSYCHOLOGICAL BATTLE OVER PERCEPTION.
Turn on the media and you'd think EVERYTHING is dramatically worse under President Trump.
Then look at the numbers.
Compared with the same stage of Biden's presidency, the figures being circulated show:
INFLATION
🟦 Biden: +12.3%
🟥 Trump: +4.3%
GROCERIES
🟦 Biden: +15.8%
🟥 Trump: +3.3%
GAS
🟦 Biden: +69%
🟥 Trump: +12%
RENT
🟦 Biden: +7.7%
🟥 Trump: +4.5%
ELECTRICITY
🟦 Biden: +19.1%
🟥 Trump: +8.4%
NEW & USED CARS
🟦 Biden: +23.9%
🟥 Trump: −1.2%
That doesn't mean Americans aren't feeling real affordability pressure. They ARE.
But during Biden's term, I REMEMBER the media making it feel like everything was fine but the opposite was felt by Americans in the real world.
Today, it seems to be the opposite. People's conditions are improving but the perception is that life is worse.
That's exactly why you have to separate how people feel, what they're being told, and what the underlying data actually show.
We're heading toward the 2026 midterms.
QUESTION EVERYTHING. CHECK THE NUMBERS YOURSELF. 🇺🇸
Stephen A. Smith says he was warned by his estate planners to leave California every weekend because the government would TRACK his phone calls, then uses that data to collect MORE taxes.
He thought they were kidding. Then he got his tax returns. They weren’t.
What’s happening here is the “jock tax” in effect, which is California’s way of collecting more money from entertainers and athletes based on days worked or spent in the state.
And here’s the disturbing part.
California’s tax collectors pull cell phone records to show where you were when you took your calls so they can prove you were still hanging out in Cali so they can hit you with another taxable day.
Smith got sick of Gavin Newsom taxing him to death and moved his ass out of California. He now lives in Florida.
SMITH: “I’m sitting down with my estate planners and all of that. And they said, ‘Look, when the weekend arrives, it would be in your best interest to go to Vegas or to Utah or something.’ I said, ‘Why?’ And they said, ‘Well, if you stay in California, you know, IRS, they ping your phone. So, anytime you get a call or you’re on the phone, they know that you’re in the state. And that counts as a tax day.’
“And I said, ‘You got to be kidding me.’ And sure enough, when I saw my tax returns, it was absolutely correct.”
This jock tax is not small money, either.
Shaquille O’Neal found that out the hard way. His first year with the Lakers, he signed for $20,000,000.
By the time taxes were done with it, his check came in at $10,900,000 for the year.
Then the jockey tax took another $4,000,000.
And Shaq walked away with about $7 million out of the 20. Two-thirds of his paycheck went to taxes.
🚨THIS IS THE JAN 6 BOMBSHELL THEY NEVER WANTED YOU TO SEE
Rep. Clay Higgins just went nuclear on camera with Lara Logan and dropped evidence that changes EVERYTHING.
Capitol Police and Metro officers walked into rooms INSIDE the Capitol… still in uniform… and came out dressed as Trump supporters and construction workers.
Trump was STILL speaking outside.
Higgins: “We have other evidence, including specific observations of police officers Capitol Police and Metro entering rooms here in the Capitol in uniform and coming out as Trump supporters and construction workers.”
Lara: “You’ve seen that?”
Higgins: “Yeah.”
Lara: “So why has that video not been released yet?”
They’ve sat on it for years.
This wasn’t a spontaneous riot. This was coordinated.
The narrative is collapsing in real time.
Bill Maher’s audience audibly gasps when he reads what the Democratic Socialists of America are actually saying out loud:
MAHER: “Trump has told 1 trillion lies, but when he says the DSA are actually COMMUNISTS, that’s not one of them.”
“And it’s not hard to prove it just by quoting the DSA and their candidates.”
“J.D. Vance was on the show, and I told him that if the Democratic Party keeps going in the direction of the DSA, my vote was in play. And all I heard all vacation was, ‘Oh, my God, you’re a Republican now.’ No, that's not what I said. I said in play, and here’s why.”
“Because not a week goes by where I don’t read about some newly chosen, exciting new face in the Democratic Party. And then when that face opens its mouth, the Communist Manifesto or some other crazy shit comes out! Again.”
“Let’s just read the quotes. The DSA platform says: ‘You work as much as you are able and no more than needed.’ If that was any closer to Karl Marx’s dictum, from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs, they’d be sued for plagiarism.”
“New York Mayor Mamdani once tweeted, Karl Marx’s words exactly. They’re not trying to hide it. Their most popular influencer, Hasan Piker, thinks communism is so groovy, he laments the fall of two of the most murderous regimes in history, the Soviet Union and Chairman Mao's China.”
“Mamdani's aide, his top aide, Cea Weaver, said, ‘If you don't believe in the government's sacred right to seize property, it's over.’ And ‘impoverish the white middle class.’ What? That's a goal? You know you're supposed to scare people into voting for you, right?”
“One of the new, soon-to-be Democratic congresspeople, Darlesia Chavalier, supports seizing all properties from landlords and said, ‘Seize the means of production.’ Mamdani has said ‘The end goal is seizing the means of production.’ I think they want to seize the means of production.”
“Now, maybe you missed that in school or missed school altogether, but THAT'S COMMUNISM.”
“Now the coalition within the DSA called the Marxist Unity Group is in ascendance. And I must take them at their word. When their words include, ‘Our commitment is to the long-term struggle for a fully liberated classless society. In a word, communism.’”
“What do they have to do, tweet out ‘Elect more communists’? Oh, yeah, Cea Weaver did that.”
[Shows tweet, audience audibly gasps]
“Yes, [she really did that]! ... People gotta realize this is going on.”
RFK Jr. explains why Fauci had such a problem with early treatments like ivermectin:
"Tony Fauci's problem is this: there's a little-known Federal law that says, 'You cannot give an emergency use authorization to a vaccine if there is any medication approved for any purpose that is shown effective against the target disease.'”
“So if Tony Fauci or anybody had admitted that hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin are effective against COVID, it would have been ILLEGAL for them to give the emergency use authorization to the vaccines, and they could have NEVER gotten them approved. And a 200 billion dollar enterprise would have collapsed."
💥 KABOOM 💥🚨
Marco Rubio just said something that’s blowing up online.
He pointed to Americans who worked their entire lives, only to retire on $800–$1,000 a month in Social Security.
Then compared it to claims that some new arrivals receive higher monthly benefits.
Read that again.
Worked your whole life…
Less support.
Just arrived…
More support?
🇺🇸🔥
This is why the debate over benefits, fairness, and government priorities is EXPLODING right now.
People are asking:
Who comes first?
America First — that’s the message.
Watch closely.
VP VANCE: "So you're saying that we kicked off 800 fraudulent healthcare providers off of the Medicare system, and not a single one of them called the government and said, 'hey, you made a mistake?'"
DR. OZ: "We've had a handful of calls. We're not sure they're legitimate yet, but it's less than 20 out of 800 and we're auditing them."
VP VANCE:" Unbelievable... At least 780 are not even trying to claim that they're not fraudulent?"
"Those are businesses that we were giving hundreds of millions, in some cases billions of dollars to, not to provide services, but to make a fraudster rich. It's just completely insane."
NEW: Records show US Capitol Police Capt. Michael Byrd, who fatally shot unarmed J6 protester Ashli Babbitt w/o warning, has been running an unaccredited day-care center w/ wife Kaleska from their MD. home since 2008. MD. rec's $190m in HHS day-care funds.

NO ROOM AT THE INN!
@HiltonHotels has launched a coordinated campaign in Minneapolis to REFUSE service to DHS law enforcement.
When officers attempted to book rooms using official government emails and rates, Hilton Hotels maliciously CANCELLED their reservations.
This is UNACCEPTABLE. Why is Hilton Hotels siding with murderers and rapists to deliberately undermine and impede DHS law enforcement from their mission to enforce our nation’s immigration laws?
"When Chavez came to power in Venezuela, one of the first things he did was take the guns away from the people. He basically banned the private gun ownership, under the guise of safety.
Then Maduro had the election recently, he lost by a landslide and just ignored the election. People protested and they got shot. They couldn't defend themselves.
That's why you need the second amendment."
The fraud taking place in this country is so much worse than anyone can even imagine. Pure rot.
There are 5,000 child care facilities in Washington state.
Over 500 of them are Somali run with:
- No physical address
- No hours of operation or 24 hours
- Subsidy participation
Minnesota was just the tip of the iceberg. This goes nationwide.

Slavery had been the norm throughout all of history, for thousands of years, impacting all people, including millions of Europeans enslaved in the Ottoman Empire - which had institutionalized the sexual slavery of European women. Yet children are led to believe that slavery was a uniquely American activity.
Now why do you think that is?
Socialists “promise the blessings of the Garden of Eden, but plan to transform the world into a gigantic post office. Every man a subordinate clerk” wrote Ludwig von @mises.
That, and worse, happened in Venezuela:
I love fact checking stuff. It drives my friends nuts, but I love doing it..
So, I decided to see if the same thing was happening in my town, and sure enough, it is.
It's not every single arrest, but these dudes aren't white.
@GrandJunctionPD@MesaPD - Why are you doing this?
