Dan Bongino SLAPS AROUND The View’s Joy Behar: “The reason socialism remains popular with a class of generally stupid people, I don’t know any other way to say it, is because they just refuse to learn what it is. Socialism is the government control of the means of production. So when you get a dunce cap wearer like Joy Behar goes, like, ‘You know, we built a road and there’s like an ambulance, so we all love socialism,’ you should ask a question, well, does the government control the asphalt business? Does the government control the construction of ambulances? Because if they don’t, then that’s not socialism.”

“Read a freaking book sometime. It doesn’t hurt… Elon’s got the Grok thing. You can ask it a question. It’ll actually give you — if your intelligence is not great, then you can go try the artificial kind. It’s like a surrogate brain. It does the work for you, Joy. Socialism is popular because it appeals to imbeciles who just don’t want to do their homework.”

The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.

And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.

Here is what they are discovering:

Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.

Then they found the grocery stores.

Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.

The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.

They finally understand why we do not have trains.

We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.

Why would we need trains.

The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.

Welcome to America.
Everything is free, enormous, air conditioned, comes with chips, and has five grocery stores within a mile that will sell you any cut of any animal you have ever imagined.

Write that down. 🦋

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day.

400 of them are now worth over $100 million.

These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries.

Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000.

Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous."

The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before.

Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.

Elon Musk: There are no lords and peasants at Tesla. Everyone eats at the same table.

“I actually know the people on the line, because I worked on the line, I walked the line, I slept in the factory, and I worked beside them. So, I'm no stranger to them.

There are many people at Tesla who have gone from working on the line to being in senior management. There are no lords and peasants. Everyone eats at the same table. Everyone parks in the same parking lot.

At GM, there's a special elevator only for senior executives. We have no such thing at Tesla.

We give everyone stock options. Many people who are just working the line, who didn't even know what stocks were, we've made them millionaires.

And I just want to say that I'm incredibly appreciative of those who build the cars, and they know it.”

🚨 This was the most insane single day in American foreign policy in a generation and most people missed half of it..

> Iran agreed to suspend its entire nuclear program — indefinitely..

> Iran agreed to never close the Strait of Hormuz again..

> zero dollars changed hands.. no frozen funds.. no pallets of cash..

> the US naval blockade on Iran stays up until the final deal is signed..

> Trump publicly ordered Israel to stop bombing Lebanon — used the word PROHIBITED in all caps..

> Netanyahu went on live TV and admitted he was acting on a US request..

> Defense Minister Katz got overruled within hours after saying Lebanon ops "have not yet been completed"..

> a 10-day Israel-Lebanon ceasefire took effect overnight.. displaced Lebanese civilians started walking back to their villages..

> oil dropped 12% in minutes.. global equities surged..

> Iran's Foreign Minister declared the Strait of Hormuz "completely open" — first time since March 27..

all of this.. one Friday..

if you're not following me you're finding out about this 48 hours late from someone who read my post..

🚨BREAKING: TRUMP Just Set The PERFECT TRAP — And DEMOCRATS Walked Right Into It 🫣

Tonight in the State of the Union, President Trump dropped a masterclass in political chess.

He looked every single member of Congress in the eye and said:
“So tonight I’m inviting every legislator to join with my administration and reaffirm a fundamental principle. If you agree with this statement and stand up and show your support — the first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”

He knew exactly what he was doing.
The Democrats — who’ve spent weeks screaming about “dictator” Trump — stayed glued to their seats. Not one stood. Not one clapped. Not one had the guts to publicly choose Americans first.

And now the viral clip ready clip is already exploding:
Democrats just proved, on national television, that they will not stand for American citizens over illegal aliens.

This is political spin. This is a Psyop. This is them Yhis is Trump manufacturing a poliotical attack.

The internet is about to eat them alive.

Drop 🔥 if you saw the trap RT this everywhere — let every American see what just happened
