Last night, I read the entirety of C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters. It's a novel told in the form of letters written by a demon to another demon instructing him on ways to manipulate his "patient" to do evil.
This one quote sounded familiar.
"It was the time sheets that made people look into him...."
I wish people could see what the Army finance office will do when a soldier gets overpaid $20.00. Then I would like to show them the oversight that our Travel System (DTS) has for a soldier to get paid for spending one night in a hotel. Next I would show them the weekly Battalion meeting where every leader can see the names of every soldier in their unit who owes money for travel cards/DTS/paychecks. Finally I will show them the withdrawal and clearing process for the various OPFUNDS that are used during overseas operations.
The army will crush a soldier for owing a single penny and this dude signs for $40 Million in Gold bars and puts them in his house....and the ONLY reason they found them was because he cheated on his time sheets.
We have soldiers and their families living in trailers and we will go through their finances with a fine tooth comb.
We have Illegals, Child care center operators, and senior executive band people bilking the Government for MILLIONS/BILLIONS and people seem to discover it by "chance".
Every last fraudster caught with over a million dollars should be dropped from a space shuttle and allowed to re-enter the earth's atmosphere so we can watch them turn into a ball of flame for our entertainment.
And yet crime is down, order is up, and the wisdom of beat patrols has seemingly been proven by the President doing what the mayor refuses toāpolicing the streets.
"yeah, yeah, he founded a company that's more efficient and productive than the rest of the world combined but the only way he became a billionaire is because he stole money" or something
The American Dream doesnāt belong to the highest bidder on Wall Street. It belongs to the American people, who work hard, save up, and play by the rules.
I applaud President Trumpās leadership on this issue and urge the House to pass this bill.
Raising Caneās Naked Tenders might be the new meta as far as fast food meal options go
Only 420 calories and 78 grams of protein
These appear worth looking intoā¦.
This certainly was not an easy article to write or publish. In this article, I discuss the harms of DEI in medical education and the effects it is having on our field.
Thank you @compactmag and @matthewschmitz for having the courage to publish it.

National Park Service and Congress tried to authorize $300 million for this same project. Trump stopped it and picked a regular pool repair company.
Do you feel Seth told the truth here?
After CBS embarrassed Karen Bass by fact-checking her debate lies about the Palisades Fire, they clearly got the call. CBS filmed with me on my burned out lot for over an hour, and they turned it over to Karen Bassā PR team to edit it into a comical 5 minute hit piece with clips from the Hills. They canāt beat my ideas, they canāt beat me in the debates, so they gotta try to turn my campaign into a sideshow. People are done with these skeezy political tricks, and Iām done with CBS. Theyāll never get a word from me for my next 8 years as mayor. Adios! What outlet should I have in their absence?
Ok⦠most of you know I was in the organic baby formula business, but what you donāt know is I dabbled in diapers as well.
I also know this baby2baby ānon profitā and have had past interactions with them.. Iāll leave that out for now..
Letās dive into this absolute grifting nonsense. Prepare to be shocked.
California is about to spend $20 million of taxpayer money to give 100,000 newborns 400 diapers each through Baby2Baby.
Do the math with me:
100,000 babies Ć 400 diapers = 40 million diapers
$20,000,000 Ć· 40,000,000 = $0.50 per diaper!!!!!
Now walk into any Costco in California and you can buy the same quality diapers for .12 to .15 cents each!
Thatās $48 to $60 for 400 diapers.
So the state is paying 8ā10x more per diaper than a regular family buying in bulk.
They couldāve just handed every low-income new mom $100 cash and told her to go to Costco. Sheād get more diapers, better ones if she wanted, and still have money left for formula, wipes, or whatever the hell she actually needs.
But nah⦠that wouldnāt let Gavin and his connected ānonprofitā girls running the show there cut ribbons, take photos, do galas and be friends with celebrities and brag about the āfirst-in-the-nationā program while skimming their cut for āadministrationā and āpartnerships.ā
This is peak government stupidity!!!
Spend way more money to feel good and look good, instead of just trusting parents with their own damn money.
Weāre not helping babies. Weāre funding another bloated nonprofit-government grift.
Math doesnāt lie. The diaper math is brutal.
What a scam and a joke!!!!!
AUSTIN MAN held his ex hostage for two hours. He beat her on a lawn, jumped on her windshield, threatened to poison her dog. She told police sheās worried that he might try to kill her.
Miguel Chavez took a plea in 2022: 120 days, time served. The criminal mischief charge was dismissed. The unlawful restraint charge was rolled into the plea deal. He then spent the next 4 years strangling women, evading police, and selling drugs with impunity.
2023: Caught with dealing-weight meth and evading police in a vehicle. Pled to probation on both.
2024: Absconded, then evaded police again. Another probation.
2025: First motion to revoke probation -- DENIED. Released to a court-ordered drug treatment program.
Then absconded from the treatment program.
February 2026: Charged with strangling a family member. Six days later, charged with strangling her again. Then continuous violence against the family.
Last month: Caught with meth again. The new evading arrest charge was rejected by the DA the same day.
So a victim told police she thought Chavez will kill her. Prosecutors let him plead down. A judge denied the first revocation. He walked away from court-ordered treatment.
21 charges, including 13 felonies. Now charged with two separate strangulation offenses six days apart.
There are over a million āAmericansā growing up in China right now thanks to birth tourism.
They can eventually return to America, vote in our elections, and then sponsor their extended family to come here.
Birthright citizenship is national suicide.
I feel the need to speak out about this. As a psychiatrist, I have worked with this population of homeless people, who abuse drugs, in the past. I tried my best and worked very hard to help. Spencer Pratt is 100% correct. The reality is that 95%+ of homeless people are violent drug addicts who do not want help. It is great to be compassionate, but it is harmful to hard-working people to be stupid and allow the issue to continue. They do not need beds. They need mandatory treatment and to be locked away in a treatment center or jail!
