On me demande pourquoi l'homme le plus riche du monde Elon Musk, passe ses journées dans une guerre culturelle au lieu de profiter de ses milliards sur une plage.

La réponse est dans le post ci-dessous.

[Dustin @r0ck3t23]

Elon Musk just defended America better than every politician in Washington combined.

Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?”

One nation on earth held a weapon nobody else had.

Total dominance. Zero competition. No risk of retaliation.

Every empire in history that held that kind of advantage used it.

Rome. The Mongols. The British. The Ottomans.

They conquered until they collapsed.

America had a bigger advantage than all of them combined.

And it rebuilt the countries it just defeated.

Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.”

Almost unprecedented?

It had never happened before. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded history.

The Marshall Plan wasn’t foreign aid.

It was the most radical act of restraint any superpower ever committed.

America turned its enemies into allies. Turned rubble into economies. Turned surrender into partnership.

Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a generation.

Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth.

Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin.

A city in the heart of the nation that just tried to destroy it.

That’s not policy.

That’s a civilization deciding what it is at the exact moment it has the power to be anything.

You’re being told a story right now.

That America is the villain of history.

You hear it everywhere. Media. Universities. Social platforms.

Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.”

Every nation on earth has dark chapters. Every single one.

The difference is what a country does when nobody can stop it.

And when nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities.

Musk: “The history of China suggests that China is not acquisitive. Meaning they’re not going to go out and invade a whole bunch of countries.”

Probably right.

China has historically built walls, not fleets.

But the real question isn’t about borders anymore.

We’re approaching a moment that mirrors 1945 in ways nobody has fully processed yet.

AI is going to give a handful of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look quaint.

If someone is going to hold that kind of power, who do you want it to be?

The country that conquered when it could? Or the one that rebuilt when it didn’t have to?

Every alliance. Every trade route. Every economy.

Billions lifted out of poverty.

All of it traces back to one act of restraint that had never been done before.

And carries no guarantee of being repeated.

The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb.

It was what it didn’t do after.

The Black Houdini?

[CBS News @CBSNews]

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt kicked off the city's mayoral debate in a heated exchange on Wednesday after Pratt called Bass "an incredible liar," and claimed she misguided Angelenos about the facts of the Palisades Fire when it broke out last year.

CBS News' @JonVigliotti, who has been closely reporting on and investigating the blaze for over a year, fact checked two key moments from the debate.

[Buzz Patterson @BuzzPatterson]

Spencer Pratt is breaking the internet with this campaign ad! Get onboard!

Taxation is a form of serfdom and servitude.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Just wondering 🤔

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

On a more sinister note, here's at least $575 million for "family planning" in areas where population growth "threatens biodiversity."

Malthusianism is a disturbing, anti-human ideology that should have ZERO place in any federal program.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

And lest the other fish feel left out of the spending spree, here's $65.7 million for international fisheries commissions.

Perhaps President Bush was onto something when he said "I know the human being and the fish can coexist peacefully."

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

🐝 $3 million for bee-friendly highways, & another $5 million for the salmon.

Talk about a buzzkill.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

$65 million for salmon?

Seems fishy.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

The word "salmon" appears 48 times in the bill.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

And, of course, $1,438,000,000 for membership in global multilateral organizations, including the UN.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

...but at the same time, allocates $410 million towards border security for Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, and Oman.

America Last in action.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

It expressly prohibits CBP funding from being used to improve border security.

[Rep. Dan Bishop @RepDanBishop]

My team and I are reading through the omnibus bill today - all $1.7 trillion and 4,155 pages of it.

@ChipotleTweets Please tell the Corinth, TX store that guacamole isn’t supposed to be brown. They don’t seem to think it’s an issue. No other stores are this consistently bad.
