Food for thought.
While everyone is fixated on oil, almost no one is talking about what’s happening in natural gas. Over the past year, US natural gas prices have collapsed by more than 30%, easing costs for power generation, industry, and home heating. Yet mainstream media and Wall Street research have largely ignored this move, because it doesn’t show up at the gas pump, doesn’t fit the preferred “energy inflation” narrative, and flows through to consumers slowly via regulated utility bills rather than daily price signs on every corner. The result is a massive, under‑reported positive supply shock in a core input to the US economy that barely registers in the public conversation.
I used to view Donald Trump simply as a solid, effective president... someone who delivered results on the economy, borders, and foreign policy without all the usual political polish.
But over time, I've come to see something much bigger: the entire American political system has been rotten and corrupt for decades. It's not just isolated scandals or bad actors; it's a deeply entrenched network of career politicians, unelected bureaucrats, lobbyists, intelligence agencies, and media gatekeepers who operate as a self-protecting "uniparty" or "swamp."
They prioritize their own power, insider deals, endless wars, and special interests over the actual needs of everyday Americans. Elections often feel like theater, with the same outcomes no matter who wins—more debt, more control, more erosion of freedoms.
What sets Trump apart is that he's the only major figure in modern politics who's truly taken on that machine head-on and actually shaken it. Previous leaders talked tough about reform but ultimately played along with the system, got rich from it, or were too tied into it to challenge it meaningfully.
Donald Trump, as a DC outsider who didn't need their approval or their money, has exposed the corruption, fought back against weaponized institutions, and forced the hidden power structures into the open... even when it meant relentless attacks, impeachments, indictments, and lawfare aimed directly at him and his children.
He's far from perfect, and the battle is far from over, but for the first time in my lifetime, someone has genuinely threatened the status quo and refused to back down. That's why the pushback against him has been so ferocious: he represents the real possibility of dismantling the corrupt system rather than just managing it.
To me, supporting him now isn't just about one good presidency... it's about finally having a fighter who's willing to take on the whole rigged game for the sake of the country, and God help us if he fails.
I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country
@markpoloncarz@realDonaldTrump just showed and proved what hypocrites you #democrats are. Rob Reiner was a vile human and said lie after lie about #Trump He tweeted almost daily, like you, and never got his #TDS checked, again like you. Fix your county.
@markpoloncarz Of course you do, you always stand with the criminals. #TDS causes those to be anti-American, support criminals, no borders and stand up for other countries.
When George Floyd died, BLM organized riots nationwide that killed 25-40 people, injured 900 cops & caused $2 billion in damages
When Charlie Kirk was assassinated, people organized prayer vigils & millions of dollars were raised for his wife & 2 children
We are not the same
Scott Jennings just DUSTED Democrat “journalism professor” Jeff Jarvis after he accused Trump of trying to turn media networks into “propaganda organs” in wake of Jimmy Kimmel ouster.
The fireworks came at the end...when @ScottJenningsKY finally lost it on him.
“You use the phrase propaganda, professor, and I just have to ask you, what do you consider what Jimmy Kimmel was doing every night?”
“Or what Stephen Colbert was doing by having on only Democratic guests?”
“Jimmy Kimmel, Monday night, flat lied about the shooter.”
“Back in the spring, he egged his audience on in cheering on the violence against and wanting kind of wishing, I think, the downfall of a publicly traded company, Tesla.”
“Do you consider that to be propaganda? Is it good for a business?”
Jarvis didn’t answer his question.
Instead, he tried to pivot...asking Jennings if he’d defend Kimmel’s right to free speech.
That’s when Jennings dropped the hammer:
“He has a right to do so, but he does not have a right to have a television show where he LIES his ASS OFF to the American people and attacks half this country on a nightly basis!”
Jennings finally said what millions are thinking.
