Egypt forgot how to build the pyramids.

Rome forgot how to build the aqueducts. Some still carry water today. What they built still stands. Neither civilization remembers how they did it.

Musk: “You look at great civilizations like ancient Egypt, and they were able to make the pyramids, and they forgot how to do that.”

Musk: “And the Romans, they built these incredible aqueducts. They forgot how to do it.”

No army invaded them. The knowledge just stopped getting used, and the moment it did, it was gone.

Same collapse. Compressed into fifty years instead of a thousand.

Musk: “In 1969, we were able to send somebody to the moon… Then the space shuttle retired, and the United States could take no one to orbit.”

Musk: “People are mistaken when they think that technology just automatically improves… it will, by itself, degrade.”

Capability doesn’t sit in a vault. It only exists inside the people doing the work right now.

The second they stop, it doesn’t pause.

It disappears.

That should not scare you. It should focus you.

Nobody loses a civilization to war. They lose it the moment they stop building.

Nobody is owed the future. It belongs to whoever keeps building it.

🚨BREAKING: The IDF has released new footage of the massive Hezbollah terror underground tunnel it destroyed yesterday, full of weapons.

The tunnel was just 6 miles from Israeli civilians.

Share this. The mainstream media won't.

Robert Kennedy Jr. on Fox News:

“The only genocide in Middle East is the one being committed against Jews and Christians. In 1948, there were a million Jews in Arab states. Today there are fewer than 15,000.”

He's 100% correct.

The relationship between the U.S. and Israel is not transactional, it is a long and vital partnership, but the next time you hear the tired question of "What does the U.S. get for $3.8 Billion to Israel," answer simply - RETURNS.

R – Research, Innovation, and the Combat Laboratory
Access to one of the world's most active laboratories for military innovation, where new technologies, concepts, and operational methods are developed, tested, and refined under real combat conditions. Combined with one of the world's leading defense technology and startup ecosystems, this environment generates technological advancements, operational insights, and innovation that would be difficult, expensive, and in many cases impossible to replicate through peacetime experimentation, exercises, simulations, or war games.

E – Economic Benefits
American jobs and manufacturing supported through purchases of U.S.-made military equipment, while strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base through joint production, co-development, and missile defense cooperation for the benefit of the U.S. military and American national security.

T – Technology
Access to military technologies refined in combat, from active protection systems and missile defense to counter-drone capabilities, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies.

U – Unique Understanding of Modern Warfare
Battlefield lessons drawn from one of the world's most active conflict environments, providing insights into urban warfare, tunnel warfare, missile defense, drones, battlefield medicine, artificial intelligence, and modern combat. These lessons help the United States adapt and prepare without having to learn them first through American casualties, American mistakes, or American wars.

R – Regional Stability Through Alliance
A capable ally helping deter common adversaries and maintain stability in one of the world's most strategically important regions while remaining willing and able to fight alongside the United States when necessary.

N – National Security Intelligence
Intelligence that helps prevent attacks against Americans, American forces, and American interests while improving U.S. understanding of shared threats, adversaries, and emerging security challenges.

S – Strategic Freedom to Focus on China
Greater freedom for the United States to concentrate military, diplomatic, and economic resources on long-term competition with China in the Indo-Pacific while helping preserve a favorable balance of power in the Middle East.

Following the banning of Israeli companies at the last military expo in France, we welcome everyone to view our product demonstration in Tehran.

🚨BREAKING: Iranian Americans are waving American, Iranian, and Israeli flags as they celebrate Khamenei's death in Washington, DC. 🇺🇸 🇮🇷 🇮🇱

They're shouting "USA! USA! WE LOVE THE USA!" 🙏

Absolutely INCREDIBLE.

Dear Europe,

It is time to wake from your slumber and return to greatness

“We are prepared to do this alone but it is our preference, and our hope, to do this together with you, our friends in Europe.”

An all time great speech by Marco Rubio

[Eitan Fischberger @EFischberger]

Finally, after over two years, Doctors Without Borders acknowledges that Hamas has been using Nasser Hospital as a terror base.

But shame on them for not admitting this during the preceding two years, when we were all documenting the proof in real time

[Vivid.🇮🇱 @VividProwess]

This video of Marco Rubio will never get old.

"I want Israel to destroy Hamas. They're vicious animals."

With Zuck’s move to Florida, California’s total taxable wealth from billionaires has plummeted to well under $1T from over $2T just a few weeks ago.

The loss of this tax revenue was totally avoidable but is now forever. All because Gavin Newsom stood motionless as this stupidly written bill, from a fringe union and a handful of socialist academics with an axe to grind, meandered its way into the public conversation without any action from him and freaked everyone out.

These were all people that were paying 13%+ in state income tax every year WITH NO COMPLAINTS UNTIL A FEW WEEKS AGO.

And now, for the rest of time, the lost tax revenues from these folks will have to be paid for by the middle class because they are the only group left in California large enough that you can tax to fill the hole.

He’s forsaken the middle class instead of managing the budget, managing the deficit, eliminating even a portion of California’s gargantuan waste and abuse. He could have done any of these things at any point over the past 7+ years.

But he was silent.

And now California’s budget will implode and he wants to run for President.

Insane.
