My biggest unlock in acquisitions this year:

Stop looking for the business to buy... Find the operator first, then find the business for them to run.

The right person already has the relationships and the customers attached to them. That’s worth more than the business itself.

You are a smart man, but such an idiot as a politician!

[Mitt Romney @MittRomney]

Tulsi Gabbard is parroting false Russian propaganda. Her treasonous lies may well cost lives.

[Bruce Povalish @povalish58]

That’s called capitalism knucklehead!

[Simon Ateba @simonateba]

Be brutally honest: Are you deeply outraged that, while hundreds of millions of Americans and I are struggling financially, @elonmusk has just now become the world's first trillionaire, with more wealth than he could spend in 1,000 lifetimes? Yes or no?

Update all contracts, leases, and IP filings before you list. Loose ends kill deals. #ExitPlanning

I would not call him a “far right” influencer but a “right so far” fraud investigator. Something maybe you guys should start doing? @nickshirleyy

[Chicago Sun-Times @Suntimes]

On Friday, Illinois Republicans will feature far right influencer Nick Shirley as a keynote speaker at their “Red Gala” fundraiser in Elk Grove Village. Shirley has filmed himself interviewing Alex Jones outside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. https://t.co/hWjsAWaK8T

@gc22gc with regards to @actblue all the feds need to do is have the FBI go in and sees their financial transactions of money coming in and going out and will clearly see who the bad actors are. They will have to trace back one generation from the original donation, but the treasury secretary can do that pretty easily. Secondly, Congress needs to check on @WinRed also, so it doesn’t look so political. (we may get a surprise there, but we need to clean the whole swamp, just not the left)!

Those idiots are so funny! They allow 15 million illegals in the country during the Biden regime, Weaponized the justice department and jailed hundreds of misdemeanor trespassers at the capital and we are taking the country down?

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

“The worst Democrat’s 100x better than the best Republican … NOTHING can get in the way of that … We’re just looking to stop the son of a b*tch from taking the whole country down.”

[Bruce Povalish @povalish58]

You forgot the main word, knucklehead, fraud!

[Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten]

Speaker Johnson made it clear what Republicans are targeting: Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.

At the same time that he’s handing ICE with another $70 billion, Speaker Johnson wants to attack programs that actually help Americans.

[Bruce Povalish @povalish58]

Really? You’re the one who allowed all these terrorists into your sanctuary city…

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

Let me be clear that hate has no home here in Illinois.

This symbol has one purpose: to stir up intimidation and terror.

We will not be silent — those responsible must be held accountable.

Yes, I was there on May 10th. Very beautiful!

[Glenn Beck @glennbeck]

I have waited my whole life to see this finished. How i hope to see this with my own eyes someday. What a work of art, passion and devotion.

[Bruce Povalish @povalish58]

What say you @RepNikkiB ??

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. ActBlue just PLED THE 5TH and REFUSED to answer about getting foreign donations infiltrating US politics on behalf of Democrats

She wouldn't even refute getting RUSSIAN money! 🤯

ActBlue is a FRAUD group. Shut it down!

REP. JIM JORDAN: Your board chairman said ActBlue accepted up to 38 million contributions in 2024 that had the signs of foreign origin. How much fraud is too much fraud?

ACTBLUE: On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.

JORDAN: How many foreign contributions did ActBlue accept?

ACTBLUE: On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.

JORDAN: How much money did ActBlue accept from Russia?

ACTBLUE: On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.

JORDAN: Why did your entire legal team quit? Your in-house legal team?

ACTBLUE: On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.

JORDAN: Did your legal team quit because of reduced fraud standards?

ACTBLUE: On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.

JORDAN: We won't keep you here all day, but let me just do one more. Did you weaken your fraud standards to help Democrats?

ACTBLUE: On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution.

Absolutely insane.

[Codie Sanchez @Codie_Sanchez]

I was going to charge for this, but f*** it.

My team just put together a 40+ page report of everything we’re seeing right now in the small biz economy.

What’s inside:

→ Real market data on SBA lending
→ Business buyer demand trends
→ Data on the ownership succession gap
→ An inside look at what small businesses are doing with AI right now

We’ve spent months doing hundreds of surveys and interviewing dozens of owners to put this together.

Now it’s yours for free.

Just:

1. Like this post
2. Comment “SMB”

And I’ll send it over.

(Make sure you’re following me so I can DM you.)

Don’t worry, shifty Schiff, the DOJ will sort this all out

[Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Make no mistake: in California, our democracy is working as it should. But our President is doing everything in his power to make you doubt that with constant lies.

His baseless, anti-democratic rhetoric has no place in our electoral process.

[Bruce Povalish @povalish58]

I actually agree with this new law as those bikes are dangerous, especially with young teenagers, racing through traffic on them

[Jen @IlliniJen]

Illinois lawmakers just sent Senate Bill 3336 to @JBPritzker.

High-speed e-bikes and scooters capable of speeds over 28 mph would require a driver’s license, title, registration, and liability insurance.

They’d be reclassified as motor-driven cycles, meaning owners would pay motorcycle registration fees and carry minimum insurance coverage.

Lower-speed models remain exempt.

If signed, it takes effect in 2027.

As always, safety is the pitch. Revenue is the goal.
