We actually don’t really invest any money in American college kids... What we do is get predominantly White children to take 200k in loans so they will forever be in debt slavery… then we replace their jobs with H1b’s…
Doesn’t everybody have a staff of AI Girl Fridays working for them by now?
Somebody asked me “how do you keep up with tech since you got laid off?” I had to laugh, I just quote Obi-Wan from Episode 4 at this point. You merely freed me to create my team.
Father Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X, presented today to Leo XIV a Declaration of Catholic Faith, to which—as Successor of the Apostles in full communion with the Roman Catholic Apostolic Church—I fully adhere.
Leo must now exercise the Petrine Ministry and confirm his brethren in the faith, in accordance with the command of Our Lord: “And you, when you have turned again, confirm your brethren” (Lk 22:32).
If the faith professed by the Superiors of the Society of Saint Pius X is not the Catholic Faith, let him indicate wherein it is erroneous. If it is, let him condemn the errors that oppose it.
If Leo were to fail to speak out when his authority is called upon as the supreme voice of the Church’s Magisterium in matters of Faith and Morals, Leo would be failing in his office.

David Sacks: Nonprofits need to manufacture problems in America to stay in business
David Sacks:
“Here's the systemic problem with nonprofits and NGOs.
Let me just contrast it with business.
In business, you set up a company, the company has to make revenue, it has to make profits.
And if it doesn't, it's going to go out of business, right? Because it'll lose money.
So there's a feedback mechanism from the market.
With an NGO, nonprofit, what have you, they raise money. They don't sell things.
They fundraise from donors in order to engage in an activity, but what happens over time is the actual activities may stop mattering, and all that really matters is they're able to keep fundraising, right?
Because they're just trying to figure out a justification to keep going back to donors to get more and more money out of them.
That's what perpetuates the organization.”
Chamath:
“ Why wouldn't the Southern Poverty Law Center focus on southern poverty? Which is an issue that actually still exists in some shape or form.
Why do you call it one thing, focus on racism, and then all of a sudden whip up fake racism?”
Sacks:
“I do think that at one time in this country, civil rights was a noble cause, a very legitimate cause.
We had the legacy of segregation and Jim Crow, and there were groups that were set up to basically change that, and they succeeded.
But again, no one in an NGO or a nonprofit ever declares victory.
When Obama got elected in 2008, regardless of whether you liked Obama or not, or agreed with his politics, I thought that at that point, most people could see that this was not a racist country.
Whatever else you could say, the fact that the highest office in the land was not denied to anybody showed that this country was not holding people back based on their skin color.
And instead of just basically packing up shop and saying, ‘Okay, we've achieved our goal,’ the goalposts all got moved.
Remember, that's when the whole anti-racism thing started, was around Obama's second term.
If they just said at that time, ‘You know what, we're going to move the goalposts from equality of opportunity to equality of results. We're going to basically make everyone equal at the finish line,’ which is to say, identity socialism.
People would've said, ‘Eh, no, we're not on board for that.’
So instead, they created this whole new terminology to justify it.
And it's taken us years to unpack that and realize what's really going on.”
JUST IN: In a statement signed by Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, The Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land confirms attacks by the IDF on Christians are not isolated incidents but many.
He expressed its "profound indignation and unreserved condemnation of the desecration of a representation of Jesus Crucified by an Israeli soldier in a Lebanese village."
"This act constitutes a grave affront to the Christian faith and adds to other reported incidents of desecration of Christian symbols by IDF soldiers in southern Lebanon."
🔥NEW: Clarence Thomas — full remarks on progressivism, its foundations, history, and impact from his appearance at University of Texas at Austin:
“Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, and Mao were all intertwined with the rise of progressivism, and all were opposed to the natural rights on which our Declaration is based.”
"Many progressives expressed admiration for each of them shortly before their governments killed tens of millions of people."
"It comes as no surprise that the progressives embraced eugenics... It was only a small step for Wilson to resegregate the federal workforce."
"It was only another step for the government to launch sterilization programs on those deemed by the experts of the day to be unfit to reproduce."
“European thinkers have long criticized America for remaining trapped in a Lockean world, with its weakened, decentralized government and strong individual rights. They say our 18th-century Declaration has prevented us from progressing to higher forms of government."
"But we were fortunate not to trade our Lockean bonds for the supposedly enlightened world of Hegel, Marx, and their followers. Fascism, which after all was national socialism, triggered wars in Europe and Asia that killed tens of millions."
"The socialism of the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China proceeded to kill tens of millions more of their own people. This is what happens when natural rights give way to higher-good notions of history or progress, or, as Thomas Sowell has written, the visions of the anointed."
"None of this, of course, was an improvement on the principles of the Declaration. Tocqueville's Democracy in America is largely about how America owed its superiority over Europe to its conscious decision to reject central planning and administrative rule, root and branch."
"Progressivism, in other words, is retrogressive.”
BULLSHIT BUSTING DUJOUR
A category error lies in comparing Russia's invasion in Ukraine to Israel's aggressions in the West Bank, Gaza, & Lebanon.
Putin see Ukrainians as Russians to integrate.
Israel wants the land, not the local inhabitants it wants to expell/Aparheid.
Was talking to my AD about this today, told him it’s a crime that most will go to VIPs that will shove them in a safe and never wear them. He reached across the table and shook my hand.
Another look from Geneva, this time with Rolex’s 100 Years Oyster Perpetual in 41mm, featuring a two-tone execution and “100 Years” details across the dial and crown marking the Oyster case’s centennial.
So what is going on between the Trump administration and the Vatican? Because something clearly is.
The most important thing to understand is that the Catholic Church is not monolithic and that it is just one function of the Vatican. The Church is huge, and like all big institutions it has factions. And because it has a lot of wealth and power, there are lots of factions wrestling for control of it.
One of the factions is very globalist and left leaning and pro immigration and anti-nationalist. That faction was bringing in a lot of NGO money through USAID and other initiatives. Obviously, that faction was unhappy with DOGE and USAID cuts. Very unhappy.
And it’s not just the lost of revenue. Being globalist aligned, this faction is watching as Trump redraws the global geopolitical map.
My take on what Trump is doing and the reported meeting in the Pentagon? He’s attempting to provoke this faction and draw them into the light. He wants them to come out swinging.
Why? Because this faction, while powerful, does not really reflect the views of most lay Catholics. And, this faction represents a powerful advocate of globalist priorities. Trump cut off billions in funding for them. Now is the time to provoke them and get them to come out swinging.
End game? Reducing the ability of this faction utilize the resources of the Church to further the globalist agenda.
The Papacy is still standing. The following monarchs who went after the pope had their dynasties eventually evaporate:
Henry IV of Fr. (1050–1106), Henry V (1086–1125), Lothair III (1075–1137), Conrad III (1093–1152), Frederick I Barbarossa (1122–1190), Henry II of England (1133–1189), Frederick II (1194–1250), Philip IV of France (1268–1314), Louis IV of Bavaria (1282–1347), Sigismund (1368–1437), Louis XII of France (1462–1515), Ferdinand II of Aragon (1452–1516), Charles V (1500–1558), Francis I of France (1494–1547), Henry VIII (1491–1547), Philip II of Spain (1527–1598), Elizabeth I (1533–1603), Gustavus Adolphus (1594–1632), Leopold I (1640–1705), Louis XIV (1638–1715), Joseph II (1741–1790), Napoleon Bonaparte (1769–1821), Wilhelm II (1859–1941)..
This should be headline news EVERYWHERE.
A Pfizer insider who was former head of toxicology in Europe has just come out and said something that many "conspiracy theorists" suspected.
He estimates that 20 000 to 60 000 people in Germany have died from the c*vid vaccine.
This was said at a parliamentary enquiry commission in Germany.
So why isn't this massive news being reported everywhere?
Is the mainstream media that has recieved millions in funding from Bill Gates deliberately covering this up... 🤔
⚡️⭕️The body of this boy, who was so enthusiastic in welcoming the Pope in Lebanon in November last year, was retrieved today after 3 days of searches in the rubble after Israel's mass terror attack that claimed the lives of 300 in 10 minutes
What if America is already far richer than anyone in the swamp is allowed to admit?
What if the real drag on the Republic isn’t taxes, isn’t debt, isn’t even the deficit, it’s Europe?
What if NATO was never a mutual defense pact, but a 75-year subscription America forgot to cancel?
What if “burden sharing” is the most expensive euphemism in the English language?
What if the City of London cabal is draining our banks?
What if the advice from globalists is terrible advice that’s costing us big?
What if every European basing agreement, every forward-deployed brigade, every Ramstein runway, every Aviano hangar, every Souda Bay pier is a tax American workers pay so Berlin can run a welfare state and Paris can run a 35-hour week?
What if foreign aid to Europe isn’t aid, it’s tribute, flowing the wrong way?
What if transporting the vast majority of trade on European owned ships costs more than we realize?
What if the NGO archipelago in Brussels, Geneva, and The Hague is just a money-laundering loop where US taxpayer dollars get rinsed through a “civil society” conference and returned as lectures about our democracy?
What if the UN isn’t a parliament of man, it’s a Manhattan timeshare with diplomatic plates, an accounting black hole, and a Human Rights Council chaired by people who’d jail you for tweeting this?
What if “the rules-based international order” was always code for: Americans build it, Americans pay for it, Americans bleed for it, and Europeans grade it?
What if $36 trillion in debt looks a lot smaller the second you stop underwriting a continent that sneers at you in three languages?
What if you zeroed out the Europe line, the NATO line, the UN line, the NGO line, and woke up tomorrow in a country with the fiscal headroom to rebuild every shipyard, every foundry, every rail line, and every Navy hull we’ve let rot since the Cold War ended?
What if American tourists went to American cathedrals, American opera, American museums, American cities instead.
I’m not saying I believe all of it.
I’m saying maybe, just maybe, we could pay down all our debt and wouldn’t have to pay taxes at all if we cut Europe loose.
NATO is in far bigger danger than anyone realizes. And the reason has nothing to do with defense budgets.
The real danger is psychological. It’s cultural.
Europeans didn’t just free-ride on American security for 80 years. They built an entire identity around the idea that they evolved past the Americans protecting them.
That identity is now the single biggest obstacle to Western survival. And the darkest irony is: we helped build it.
After World War II, Europe wasn’t just economically shattered. Its culture was in ruins. The cities, the universities, the concert halls, the museums. Rubble.
The Marshall Plan rebuilt the economy. But culture wasn’t a priority. Not at first.
Then the Iron Curtain dropped. And suddenly culture became a weapon.
American diplomats, academics, artists & scholars flooded Western Europe. We funded their universities. Supported their orchestras. Rebuilt their museums. Promoted their intellectual life.
Not because European culture needed saving for its own sake.
Because Eastern Europeans were struggling for Maslow’s mist basic needs.
We needed the view from the other side of that Wall to be intoxicating.
So America built Western Europe into a showcase of self-actualization. Art. Philosophy. Cafe culture. Long vacations. Universities where people studied literature instead of surviving.
We were manufacturing jealousy.
And it worked. The Wall came down.
But here’s what no one accounted for.
When you give a society self-actualization on someone else’s tab long enough, they forget it was a gift. They start believing it was organically theirs.
And when they look at the country that funded it all, a country busy building aircraft carriers and semiconductor fabs and shale fields instead of reaching the Maslow’s pinnacle.
An overweight American in a ball cap who can’t tell Monet from Pissarro. Who eats fast food. Who drives a truck. Who builds strip malls instead of piazzas.
And to a culture trained in aesthetics but stripped of strategic awareness, that American looks uncivilized.
So the arrogance takes root. And once a culture decides another is beneath them, they stop listening.
Americans say wars are sometimes necessary: crude.
Oil is the backbone of prosperity: unsophisticated.
Kids build companies in garages that reshape the planet: crass.
Wall Street finances the global economy: vulgar.
Europe has no world-class technology sector. No military capable of strong defense. No energy independence. No AI capacity.
What Europe has is culture. The culture we paid for at the expense of us reaching Maslow’s pinnacle.
For decades that was fine. We funded the museums, protected the sea lanes, and tolerated the sneering because the arrangement worked.
Then Europeans stopped keeping the contempt private. They started saying it to our faces. In their media. In their parliaments. At every international forum. “Americans are stupid.
Americans are violent. Americans are a threat to democracy.”
We could have moved the Louvre to NY. We could have built a Venice here. We could have stolen your best artists, designers, philosophers and more… like your conquering armies did for centuries.
Instead we funded them. And all we asked for in return was to let us visit.
You don’t have the military to defend your borders. You don’t have the technology to compete. You don’t have the energy to heat your homes without begging dictators.
What you have is an 80-year superiority complex FUNDED BY AMERICANS, protected by American soldiers, and built on the false belief that self-actualization is civilization.
It isn’t. Civilization is the ability to sustain itself. By that measure, Europe isn’t a civilization at all. It’s a dependency with better wine.
That’s not a threat. It’s a weather report.
Build a Navy. Or don’t. But stop lecturing the people who made you “better than us”
Our “crudeness” our “stunted liberal education” our “ugly strip malls” are because we sacrificed our culture to support yours.
