🚨 EUROPE’S PREPARATIONS FOR WAR ARE REACHING AN ALARMING LEVEL
Measures that would have appeared unthinkable only a few years ago are now spreading across Europe:
🇫🇮 FINLAND (AKA Ukraine 2.0)
• Raised the military-reserve age to 65
• Building a reserve approaching one million people
• Removed the legal barrier preventing allied nuclear weapons from entering Finnish territory

🇪🇪 ESTONIA
• Declared its willingness to host NATO nuclear weapons if necessary
• Building bunkers, trenches and anti-tank barriers along its Russian border
• Participating in the new Baltic Defense Line
🇱🇻 LATVIA
• Constructing border fortifications, barriers and military positions
• Withdrew from the treaty prohibiting antipersonnel mines

🇱🇹 LITHUANIA

🇵🇱 POLAND
• Offered to host NATO nuclear weapons
• Pursuing an army and reserve system totaling approximately 500,000 people
• Planning to train as many as 100,000 reservists annually
• Considering military preparation for all adult men

• Preparing to move hundreds of thousands of NATO troops and vehicles east during a major war
🇸🇪 SWEDEN

🇩🇰 DENMARK

🇫🇷 FRANCE

• Encouraging participation in military reserves and civil-defense organizations
🇬🇧 BRITAIN
• Reviving government “War Books”
• Integrating military, civilian, industrial and utility planning
• Preparing a national home-defense exercise
• Strengthening protection of energy systems, water, communications and undersea cables
• Planning for cyberattacks, fuel shortages and supply-chain breakdowns
• Making it easier to recall former service members—potentially up to age 65
• Increasing weapons, drone and ammunition production
🇪🇺 EUROPEAN UNION
• Advising 450 million residents to maintain at least 72 hours of food, water, medicine, cash and emergency supplies
• Building strategic reserves for chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear emergencies
Nuclear weapons have not been confirmed as deployed in Finland, Estonia or Poland—but those countries have opened, or are considering opening, the door.
Europe says this is deterrence and preparedness.
But when countries simultaneously expand conscription, recall older soldiers, prepare bunkers, restore land mines, consider hosting nuclear weapons and teach civilians how to survive war, one question becomes unavoidable:
WHAT DO EUROPEAN GOVERNMENTS KNOW—or fear—THAT THEIR CITIZENS ARE NOT BEING FULLY TOLD?
Absolutely incredible…
University of California professors are now asking the school to reinstate the SAT for admissions because their new students are unable to do high school-level work.
They stopped using standardized tests for admissions in 2020 to promote "equity".
I visited Seattle’s $165 million dollar downtown library and it was OVERRUN with drug addicts.
Not only is this library filled with adults who are high on drugs, but they also offer FREE fentanyl test strips, syringes and injectable narcan that anyone, including children, can access.
Visitors have complained of “foul odors”, unusable restrooms and harassment by the homeless and I experienced all of this while at this location.
Seattle residents just passed a tax increase to raise $480 million dollars for libraries just like this one and this is unfortunately the state that they’re in:
Mark Zuckerberg reveals he's feeding his cows beer and macadamia nuts
“On the ranch, one of my projects is I'm trying to create the highest quality beef in the world”
“It's very low stakes, I’m not selling it but I'm very into the genetics of the cattle. We're trying to figure out how do you make it so that you basically can deliver the highest density diet to them”
“We started growing macadamia trees because that kind of nut is extremely dense and they will eat a lot so they will put on weight and become fat quicker and become delicious”
“The macadamia nuts have a lot of oil so you need to actually roast that. So now we need to design this whole process to roast the nuts so that way you can give them to the cows”
“You want them to eat more. So then it's like how do you get them to eat more? Well it turns out alcohol is great for that because alcohol induces appetite”
“That's actually why very high-end beef, they're fed beer. But okay, what's the right balance of beer versus water? I don't know. Let's let them choose. They get either as much cold beer as they want or as much room temperature water”
“So now we're brewing all this beer and we're putting it out”
Eli Lilly has done it.
They've gone and made what seems to be a powerful, permanent gene therapy for LDL cholesterol.
That means they'll be able to effectively prevent most heart disease with a single infusion!

This can be the difference between serious injury & walking away from a crash
The Sam Altman and @miramurati texts from the day he got fired from @OpenAI in 2023 just became evidence in the @elonmusk v. @sama trial.
It felt like a meaningful moment in AI history, so I turned it into a musical.
The lyrics are the texts.
