The anti-datacenter psychosis sweeping through both sides of our national politics might be the worst mass movement I've seen in my lifetime. The magnitude of lies underpinning it, the threat it poses to our economy and civilization, and the sheer scale of its popularity are totally unprecedented. It should be an enduring national shame that the country that invented the airplane, landed on the Moon, and created the Internet is descending into superstitious panic at the very moment growth matters most
0 Americans have died this year of measles. 300 per year died before invention of vaccine. The U.S. is managing the current Fauci measles outbreak better than any other country.
Over 1 million Americans will die this year of preventable chronic diseases tied to our food system.
Any medical influencer only talking about measles and not talking about chronic disease is a political hack, not someone who cares about public health.
Our new report on the size, scope and cost of illegal immigration in NJ is now out. We’ve found a state so hopelessly compromised that we’ve officially requested federal intervention from the DOJ, DHS and House Judiciary Committee.
A staggering 8.2B is being spent every single year on 737,000 illegal invaders in New Jersey. And it’s costing each of you $1,700 a year! If you rent, you can add another $1,000 annually onto that figure from illegals driving up housing costs.
What’s even crazier is this is all despite an overall drop in illegals due to deportations and self deportations!
We spent six months meticulously gathering data, submitting OPRA requests and crunching numbers. By pulling the actual affidavits illegals use to get driver’s licenses, we not only were able to definitively prove over 100,000 are crowding our roadways… but for the first time we can map where they live by zip code.
The State and this Administration has lost its freaking mind. Some highlights from this criminal enterprise:
$26,000,000 a year to help illegals fight their own deportations. Up 830% from 2018.
$169,000,000 for healthcare costs for illegal minors. Up 417% since 2022.
$1,280,000,000 for education of newly arrived illegals. Up 53% since 2019.
And for the bleeding hearts who can’t think for themselves and mindlessly parrot the BS line that illegals pay for themselves with sales taxes…. We’ve crunched the numbers for you. It only makes up 16% of the overall drain they create for this state. So don’t even try it.
The situation simply isn’t sustainable. Schools are cutting teachers, sports and after school programs. First responders can’t get cost of living increases. The average first time home buyer is in their 40’s.
Every legal New Jerseyan’s wallet has been emptied to pay for illegals. It’s time to return all their money. It’s time to send every single invader home.

It’s easy to think this way before kids because you think your social spending habits will continue- travel as much go out as much etc. reality is once the kids come you (happily) give all that up. It’s why most people are afraid to have kids they don’t want to give up their lives of extravagance, they want to do both
What about stewarding more direct payment accounts for adults as well? Say under a certain income level where wealthy individuals can directly gift to struggling Americans ? The tax the rich idea doesn’t work because we know it won’t make it to everyday Americans effectively but direct payments will. I feel like most ultra wealthy know this and would feel more motivated to share wealth with the most disadvantaged Americans if they knew it was going directly to them versus Washington. And it can help shut up the socialists
There is very simple math behind the need to tax billionaires. Billionaire wealth is increasing at an accelerating rate vastly outpacing the overall rise in GDP. This means that their wealth is not growing because the whole pie is growing. Their wealth is growing at your expense and the trend is accelerating. If you are not a billionaire and you and your children want to own things, this is your fight.
@kangminlee The obsession with abortion at all costs might be the worst manifestation of TDS. They have become genuinely obsessed with making abortion as prevalent as possible because of Roe v Wade overturning (ironically nothing to do with Trump himself)
@paulg The VC perspective on immigration is confined to their experience with hyper successful and brilliant immigrants. Which is the extreme edge case for immigrants. Everyday Americans shouldn’t have to outcompete the rest of the planet to live a dignified life
If I hear another Boomer conservative bitching about Gen Z ordering DoorDash I’m going to become a communist. It’s true their grandparents always cooked homemade meals. But that’s because grandma stayed at home and grandpa had a union job and nobody could reach him after 5. They had a house with a full kitchen and 3 kids by 25. Meanwhile half of Gen Z men are forced to compete with the entire population of South America for some 12 hour long shift HVAC job that barely pays the rent. They’re 30 and nobody cooks for them because they can’t find any women who’ll marry them when they can’t even afford a starter home in the ghetto. The other half of Gen Z men are busting their ass competing with the entire populations of India and China for some 70 hour a week powerpoint job that asks them for updates on the slides at 3AM. They can’t find anyone to cook for them either, because every women around them is convinced that being a mother and cooking for a man is beneath them because they’re gonna save the world when they become VP of Marketing at MegaCorp in 20 years.
