Careful @RepFine your backbone is showing... your dem colleagues might try to get you for indecent exposure. 😁

Can we treat your fortitude like the chicken pox in the 70s? Could you pull some of them together and spread it to them too? Sure would be nice if you all got it at the same time.

🚨#BREAKING: A man in North Carolina has been arrested after he showed up to a small-town church full of worshippers with TWO FLAMETHROWERS, crossbows, 500 rounds of ammo...

...and a notebook listing the addresses of churches and schools

A church member saw him, sitting in his truck in FULL BODY ARMOR and camouflage and called 911.

An OFF-DUTY police officer, working security at that church, walked straight up to that truck and confronted him.

He told officers he was "law enforcement" there to enforce a smoking violation... but he was NOT law enforcement.

Police say what he actually had in that truck was an arsenal: two flamethrowers, two crossbows, a launcher made to look like a handgun, over 500 rounds of ammunition, knives, duct tape, and police scanners.

They disarmed him without a shot fired.

Every single church needs to have SERIOUS SECURITY, this could have been a complete massacre.

I haven't seen this story reported in any mainstream media, but it looks like this man was about to massacre hundreds of Christians in a church in North Carolina.

🤯 MAMDANI INVESTOR EXODUS: Even billionaires have a breaking point!

Zohran Mamdani just froze rents on over a million apartments in New York City. Investor Sergey Brin just responded by walking out the door!

The world's third-richest man dumped his entire stake in a NYC rent-stabilized apartment fund for six cents on the dollar. Not a typo. Six cents.

That is what Mamdani's socialist utopia looks like in practice. A $268 billion man taking a bath just to get as far away from New York City housing policy as humanly possible.

And Brin is not alone. The fund he fled is sitting on $84 million in unpaid rent and facing foreclosure on a half-billion dollar loan. The University of California already wrote down its own $115 million investment by 50%.

Meanwhile Brin took his pennies and quietly bought a $51 million waterfront estate in Miami.

That is the market giving Mamdani a one-finger salute on the way out of town.

An A&E Real Estate spokesperson put it plainly: "Institutional capital - both equity investors and lenders - are fleeing New York City's rent-stabilized apartment sector. They understand New York is in a doom loop."

A doom loop. Built by design. Celebrated as compassion.

Margaret Thatcher said it best: "The trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money."

New York is not running out. It is chasing the money out. There is a difference, and it is worse.

When the capital is gone, the maintenance stops. When the maintenance stops, the buildings rot. And the same tenants Mamdani claims to be protecting will be the ones living in the wreckage.

This is not a rent freeze. It is a slow-motion demolition of the housing stock, dressed up in the language of justice.

Congratulations, New York. You got the mayor you voted for.

I VOTED FOR THIS

FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING

[History With Jacob @HistoryWJacob]

The vote that would create the United States was deadlocked, and the man who could break the tie was eighty miles away, dying of cancer, on the wrong side of a thunderstorm.

His name was Caesar Rodney. On the first of July 1776, while Congress argued itself toward independence in Philadelphia, he was stuck back in Delaware. He was tamping down Loyalist trouble, in constant pain from the cancer eating at his face and fighting for breath due to his asthma.

Then the letter came. Delaware's two delegates in Congress were split. One for independence, one against. Without a tiebreaker, the colonies would not stand united. And a divided front was exactly what the Crown was counting on.

He did not hesitate. He climbed onto his horse near midnight and rode straight into the storm. Lightning split the sky. The roads turned to sludge. A journey that normally took two days but he made it in eighteen hours. He stopped only to change horses, soaked with every mile.

He reached Independence Hall on the morning of July 2 just as the vote was called, still in his boots and spurs. Caked in mud. Thomas McKean never forgot the sight of him standing in the doorway.

Rodney walked in and cast his vote for independence. It broke Delaware's tie, and with that, not a single colony stood against the break from Britain.

On this day, 250 years ago, a dying man rode all night through a storm so America could be born.

America 250 🇺🇸

6 AM Call to Action

If you have a colleague here on a visa who clearly cannot do their job, report them anonymously - and tell your other colleagues this option exists. Remember the ability to communicate effectively is also a requirement for a visa.

This is how we make it uncomfortable for employers who abuse the system. This is also how we empower the good employers who feel powerless as their teams get flooded with H-1B workers who cannot perform at the expected level.

Every report is required to generate an investigation, eventually. HR may never tell you, but these reports impact financials, policy, and hiring practices over time. It also leads to investigations into whether their academic credentials are valid.

Use the official channels:

- USCIS Tip Form: https://t.co/RvF91BTY75
- Department of Labor Foreign Labor Certification: https://t.co/YxwGF1Q5Nw
- DOL Wage and Hour: 1-866-4-USWAGE (1-866-487-9243)

I prefer online as that leaves an FOIA path that is easily traced.

Quietly share this path with others. When enough people document real performance and communication failures, companies will finally feel pressure to hire Americans who can actually do the work.

Thanks to President Trump, the student loan debt cycle ends NOW.

Today, we’re launching the Repayment Assistance Plan and Tiered Standard plan – two new federal student loan repayment plans that protect students from runaway interest and ballooning principal balances.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

For decades, the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the People – or “ICAP” – has been a vehicle for radical left-wing extremism and subversive foreign influence in the United States and across our hemisphere. ICAP is the Cuban regime’s premier influence and intelligence front group, exploiting its vast global network to spy on Americans, promote anti-Western propaganda, coordinate foreign influence operations, and organize revolutionary leftist movements around the world.

Earlier this month, I designated ICAP and several other Cuban organizations responsible for engaging in subversive anti-American activities, pursuant to sanctions authorities created by President Trump’s Cuba Executive Order.

This week, I terminated the legal status of Carlos Antonio Lloga Dominguez, a former ICAP official who maintains ties with the organization. Lloga Dominguez and his wife and son are now in federal custody pending removal from the United States.

America will never become home for foreign communists who peddle propaganda, run subversive influence operations, or support radical anti-American movements within the United States. Transact with ICAP and you will be sanctioned, prosecuted or deported from our country.

I’ve designated the Ecuadorian gang Chone Killers as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and Specially Designated Global Terrorist. Ecuadorian gangs help Mexican cartels move and export illicit drugs to fund terrorism and criminal activity. The Chone Killers have attacked civilians, law enforcement officers, and government officials, including high profile assassinations of public officials.

Working with President @DanielNoboaOk in Ecuador, we will continue to strengthen our regional security and ensure narcoterrorists have no place in our hemisphere.
