I can’t believe a Democrat is already exposing his own party like this

Don Leonard, the Democrat who just won Ohio’s 15th District, says senior House Democrats warned him what happens if he won’t back Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker:

“Making my life a living heII for the next two years here in Washington as well as being sure to lose my election”

He says they “expect you to wear the team jersey” and “be a good team player”

They don’t want representatives, they want obedience

刚刷到 Chamath 这段访谈切片，短短二十秒，伤害性不大，侮辱性极强。

他直接对着镜头发问：过去十年，硅谷真正拿得出手的技术突破到底有什么？

左边是马斯克，单枪匹马把可回收火箭、全球通信网、电动车这三座大山全立起来了；

右边是硅谷剩下的所有人，十年磨一剑，给全人类贡献了 AirPods 和 Instagram 短视频。

以前总听人吹硅谷的工程师每天都在思考怎么改变世界，

结果回头一看账本才发现，除了老马还在跟地球引力和制造业死磕，剩下大半个硅谷的顶级头脑，过去十年基本上都在研究怎么往你的耳朵里塞耳机、怎么往你的眼睛里塞算法擦边视频。

这话虽然难听，但确实就是过去十年科技圈最真实的写照。

@gentrywgevers So, it’s fear mongering that won the election.

[Gentry Gevers @gentrywgevers]

Oil crashed the day after Democrats took Congress. Then Van Jones went on CNN and admitted the quiet part out loud.

The day after the election, Brent crude fell 8.7% in a single day. WTI fell 13% on the week. Worst week for oil since COVID. Nothing about the war changed overnight. Only the election ended.

And it is still falling this morning. WTI is down near $87 a barrel. Tankers are still getting hit near the Strait of Hormuz. But the fear is gone, right on schedule.

The official story is that traders think a Democrat Congress will force Trump to end the Iran war. Maybe. Hold that thought.

Because then Van Jones went on CNN and bragged about how they did it. His exact words: 'The Republicans never figured out what we were doing.'

Jones said Democrats ran something called the American Accountability Network. Tens of thousands of real people. Not bots. Coordinated to post the same message, everywhere, every day.

And the message never changed. Everything is unaffordable. Gas costs too much. And it is all the Republicans' fault. Jones said they tied kitchen table pain to Democrats on a positive and Republicans on a negative.

The scale he claimed: 32.5 million hits a day on Instagram. 88.8 million on X. 185 million on Facebook. That is not a campaign. That is a flood. And it was aimed at your gas tank.

This was not some random group either. The network's own partner list includes the DNC, the DCCC, the DSCC, MoveOn, the AFL-CIO and the SEIU. The whole machine, working one message.

So here is the question people are asking now. If the crisis was real, why did oil fall off a cliff the morning after the votes were counted? Inventories actually went down that week. Less oil sitting around usually means higher prices. Prices crashed anyway.

They did not win on policy. They won on volume. They manufactured a crisis, pointed it at your gas tank, and flooded every feed in America until it worked. And Jones said the network is not going away.

What were you paying for gas on Election Day?

Abiy Ahmed: The Messianic Delusion of the Sick Man of the Horn.

I. Lakes, Ponds, and Irredentist Fantasies

In the first video, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed ventures into geopolitical metaphor, likening Ethiopia to a vast lake and dismissing neighboring sovereign states as mere ponds. Such rhetoric is not merely grandiose but perilously destabilizing. It signals an irredentist posture fundamentally at odds with the principles of the United Nations Charter, the Constitutive Act of the African Union, and binding bilateral agreements, particularly with Eritrea. The Prime Minister’s assertion that Ethiopia “must have access to the sea” under threat of regional instability is an open affront to international law, which recognizes the sovereign territorial integrity of states and prescribes diplomacy as the avenue for economic cooperation, including port access. To reduce entire nations to peripheral puddles in Ethiopia’s hydrological imagination is a dangerous minimization of the agency, sovereignty, and dignity of neighboring peoples. Such language betrays an imperial nostalgia utterly divorced from the complex interdependence and legal frameworks governing the Horn of Africa.

II. #Ziquala Monastery and the Abyss of Impunity

The second video, wherein Abiy responds to the murder of an Orthodox monk at Ziquala Monastery, exposes the hollowness of his habitual pledges of investigation and accountability. Ethiopia, under his watch, has become a graveyard of unkept promises and unpunished atrocities. The massacre at Ziquala, like the countless other massacres targeting Amhara Orthodox Christians, is met with perfunctory expressions of regret, but no substantive action. The pattern is tragically clear: the state deploys rhetoric of national unity and piety while systematically abandoning entire communities to the predations of militias and state-affiliated death squads. The Prime Minister’s dismissive posture toward Ziquala underscores a moral chasm between his public declarations and the brutal reality on the ground, where religious sanctuaries have become sites of slaughter, desecration, and impunity.

III. Tigray, Global Indifference, and Abdication of Responsibility

In the third video, Abiy pivots to the specter of renewed conflict in Tigray, suggesting that the world will no longer heed the region’s plight as it once did. Invoking Sudan’s ongoing chaos and the distractions of global geopolitics, he frames potential war as a local matter, scarcely deserving external intervention. This rhetorical maneuver is profoundly cynical, as it trivializes human suffering and signals to belligerents that mass violence might now proceed without international scrutiny. It also conveniently absolves the federal government of its duty to prevent conflict through meaningful dialogue and genuine reconciliation. Abiy’s posture reveals a leader eager to distance himself from accountability, content to cast Ethiopia’s crises as mere background noise in a distracted world, while the nation teeters on the brink of further fragmentation and humanitarian disaster.

我的乖乖，真的戳心窝子，兄弟们

看完百亿对冲基金大佬 Bill Ackman 谈马斯克的这段切片，最戳心窝子的根本不是 SpaceX 和特斯拉的万亿估值，而是他提到自己女儿时的那半句话，

身家百亿美金的华尔街巨鳄，可以用钱买下这世上99%的顶级资源，唯独买不回女儿重新看见世界、重新开口说话的生理机能，

而今天唯一能给他女儿带来这种物理希望的 Neuralink，
恰恰来自一个二十年前就可以彻底躺平退休、却偏偏选择继续拿命死磕硬科技的疯子。

很多人总喜欢拿世俗的功利算盘去揣测马斯克为什么还不收手，

却忘了如果当年他在把特斯拉做上市后就去买游艇打高尔夫，

今天人类既不会有占全球过半运力的可回收火箭，更不会有让无数失明失语者重获新生的微米级脑机电极丝。

这就相当于一个早就通关了财富游戏的玩家，非但没有退服养老，反而把赢来的全部金币熔铸成手术刀和发动机，孤身一人去撞人类物理与医学边界上最硬的那堵墙，

所以 Ackman 最后那句感慨才显得格外沉重：当一个人明明拥有随时退场享受人生的特权，却依然留在泥泞的工程第一线替全人类蹚雷，这样的人出现在我们的时代，本身就是整个人类文明最不该被辜负的幸运

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

THIS IS INCREDIBLY WELL-PUT, AND I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT'S WRITTEN BY A STUDENT!!! WHATEVER HE RUNS FOR, I'LL VOTE FOR HIM.

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists, and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950s for the sake of the kids, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has clearly run its course.

Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right for us all, so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is our separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by land mass, each taking a similar portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets, since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

—We don't like redistributive taxes, so you can keep them.

--You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.

--Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA, and the military.

--We'll take the nasty, smelly oil industry and the coal mines, and you can go with wind, solar, and bio-diesel.

--You can keep Oprah, Whoopi, Bill Maher, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell. You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all five of them.

--We'll keep capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart, and Wall Street.

--You can have your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeless, homeboys, hippies, druggies, and illegal aliens.

--We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEOs, and rednecks.

--We'll keep Bill O’Reilly and Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood.

--You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.

--You can have the peaceniks and war protesters.

--When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

--We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.

--You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness, and Shirley McLaine. You can also have the UN., but we will no longer be paying the bill.

--We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks, and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Volt and Leaf you can find.

--You can give everyone health care if you can find any practicing doctors.

--We'll keep "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "The National Anthem."

--I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute "Imagine," "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing," "Kum Baya," or "We Are the World."

--We'll practice trickle-down economics and you can continue to give trickle-up poverty your best shot.

--Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name, and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like-minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you might think about which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J. Wall
Law Student and an American

P.S. Also, please take George Clooney, Ted Turner, Sean Penn, Martin Short, Charlie Sheen, Barbra Streisand, and (Hanoi) Jane Fonda with you.

P.P.S. And you won't have to press 1 for English when you call our country.

🚨 Orthodox Christians disarmed before massacre of over 50 civilians in Endeto, Arsi, as sources accuse regional authorities of facilitating the attack

New accounts emerging from the November 5th, 2026, massacre in Endeto, Arsi Zone, Oromia Region, describe a sequence of events in which local authorities allegedly disarmed Orthodox Christian residents, assembled community defenders at a kebele administration, withdrew security forces and subsequently allowed armed groups to attack defenseless civilians. More than 50 Orthodox Christians were reported killed, with subsequent accounts indicating that 40 bodies had been recovered and buried in a single mass grave.

Chronological sequence of events:

1. Initial confrontation between armed groups and Orthodox Christian residents

Sources claim that Orthodox Christian residents initially confronted armed attackers described as Oromo Wahhabi militants. The residents reportedly defended themselves using legally owned firearms and inflicted casualties on the attackers.

2. Regional authorities intervene and confiscate residents' firearms

Following the confrontation, woreda, zonal and Oromia regional authorities allegedly intervened to halt the fighting. Rather than maintaining the residents' defensive capabilities, security personnel reportedly confiscated their legally owned firearms, leaving the community vulnerable to further attacks.

3. Christian community defenders assembled at the kebele administration

Authorities allegedly identified men considered capable of defending the community and instructed them to assemble at a kebele administration under the pretext of organizing a local militia. The men were reportedly kept together at the facility.

4. Security forces withdraw and access roads are obstructed

According to local accounts, local security forces were ordered to withdraw from Endeto. Roads leading into the area were allegedly dug up and damaged to prevent or delay Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) reinforcements from reaching the community.

5. Armed attackers target the assembled Christian defenders

Local sources alleges that armed fighters, Oromo Wahhabi militants, were directed toward the now-disarmed community. Their first target was reportedly the kebele administration, where the assembled Christian men were killed.

6. Attackers conduct house-to-house killings

Following the killings at the kebele, armed groups allegedly moved through residential neighborhoods and agricultural areas, killing civilians inside their homes, farmers working in their fields and other residents. Bodies were reportedly left scattered across the affected communities.

7. ENDF and Gadaa Commando arrive after the killings

ENDF personnel subsequently reached Endeto alongside Oromia Region's Gadaa Special Commando. However, sources accuse the arriving forces of targeting residents suspected of photographing or recording the aftermath, allegedly accusing them of attempting to damage the Oromo people's reputation.

8. Families prohibited from mourning

Surviving relatives were reportedly prohibited from mourning loudly, including one Orthodox Christian resident said to have lost six family members in the attack.

9. Bodies recovered and buried in a mass grave

Subsequent information indicates that 34 bodies were initially recovered, one wounded victim later died, and five additional bodies were brought from surrounding areas, bringing the reported number buried in a single mass grave to 40. Other victims reportedly remained unaccounted for.

10. Wounded survivors reportedly denied access to medical care

A privately hired vehicle transporting injured survivors toward Robe was allegedly forced to turn back after encountering armed groups blocking the road. Sources warned that the death toll could rise because wounded civilians remained without medical treatment.

[ነብዩ @neby_G]

🚨 Artillery and mortar shelling by @AbiyAhmedAli regime forces sets farmers’ crops ablaze in Nasna Woreda, North Shewa Zone, Amhara Region

ENDF forces have been using artillery and mortar fire to burn farmers’ crops in Qumamba Kebele, Nasna Woreda, in the Bosana Werena area of North Shewa Zone, Amhara Region.

Footage circulating from the area shows cultivated fields engulfed in flames following the shelling, destroying crops that local farmers were preparing to harvest. The reported destruction threatens agricultural livelihoods and food supplies for communities already affected by the ongoing war in Amhara Region.

Germany is right to warn against further escalation, but the international community must confront the common denominator in Ethiopia's widening catastrophe: the policies of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government. From the Eritrean rapprochement and Nobel Peace Prize to the devastating Northern Ethiopian War, the Somaliland MoU, Sudan's conflict, and the latest displacement crisis along the Kenyan border, the Horn of Africa has descended into a vortex of instability. Ethiopia is burning in every direction, while ethnic polarization, territorial disputes, and the conduct of Abiy's government and Oromia's regional leadership demand urgent scrutiny. The World Bank's September 2026 poverty map reveals another devastating reality: Tigray, Amhara, and Afar remain trapped in extreme poverty exceeding 30%, both in 2013 and 2024. Northern Ethiopia needs peace, reconstruction, justice, and accountable governance, not another cycle of militarization. Germany and Europe must address the political roots of this catastrophe, not merely its consequences.

“Violence against the Amhara community, particularly in western Oromia, remains pervasive but has been overshadowed by the armed conflict in the north of the country. Since September 2022, Oromia regional security forces, beyond their earlier acquiescence and inaction in the face of violence by non-state armed groups, have begun carrying out direct attacks against Amhara communities, mainly in East Wollega Zone.”

[Robel Alemu | ሮቤል ዓለሙ (PhD) @TheFitawrari]

“Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to table e-petition 7556. The petitioners highlight that, since early 2023, armed conflict in the Amhara region of Ethiopia has involved Ethiopian government forces carrying out indiscriminate violence and sexual gender-based violence against civilian populations and infrastructure, including through the use of aerial strikes, leaving more than 4.4 million children out of school and hundreds of thousands displaced.

The petitioners also highlight that the Ethiopian government has carried out the arbitrary detentions and torture of Amhara journalists, civilian society leaders, members of Parliament and opposition figures. They highlight that the incumbent Prosperity Party administration won 90% of federal Parliament seats in the June 2026 general election despite ongoing armed conflicts, mass civilian displacement, suppression of civilian society and opposition, and the exclusion of major ethnic communities, making conditions for a free and inclusive vote impossible.

The petitioners note that Canada provides over $147 million in development assistance to Ethiopia and maintains significant diplomatic, commercial and humanitarian interests in the country and the Horn of Africa. They are calling on the government to consider the application of the Justice for Victims of Corrupt Foreign Officials Act to oppose targeted sanctions on individuals credibly identified as responsible for grave human rights violations in Ethiopia. They publicly demand an immediate ceasefire in the Amhara region and the unconditional release of all political prisoners and prisoners of conscience held by the Ethiopian government.

Lastly, the petitioners call on the Government of Ethiopia for strengthened transparency around the June 2026 general election results toward an inclusive democratic process.”
