Elon Musk used a joke to perform an autopsy on the American economy.
Two economists go for a hike. They find a pile of shit. One pays the other $100 to eat it.
They keep walking. Find another pile. The second economist pays $100 back to eat that one.
They stop. Neither man gained a dollar. Both ate shit for nothing.
But on paper they just generated $200 in GDP.
Musk: “That basically would count as a job. This is to illustrate the absurdity of economics.”
That is not a punchline. That is the operating system of the federal government.
Every time a politician celebrates “record job creation” this is what they are describing. Not output. Not value. Not progress. Motion.
The entire bureaucratic machine exists to manufacture friction and then invoice for it.
Compliance layers built to justify the next compliance layer. Oversight committees that produce nothing but the need for more oversight. Consulting firms hired to audit the work of other consulting firms.
Trillions circulating through systems that have never produced a single thing you can hold in your hands. But the GDP number ticks up. So everyone applauds.
The shit gets eaten. The scoreboard moves. Nobody asks what actually got built.
This is why Washington treats AI like a five alarm fire.
AI does not play the friction game. It does not form a committee. It does not schedule a review. It does not file 400 pages of paperwork no one will ever read.
It just solves the problem.
And that is the one thing the machine cannot survive.
The government does not tax results. It taxes the process. The longer the process, the deeper the cut.
AI compresses a ten day workflow into seconds. There is nothing left to bill. Nothing left to tax. Nothing left to skim.
So they will spend the next decade warning you that AI threatens the economy.
What they will never say is what it actually threatens.
The illusion that activity equals progress.
The $200 economy where both men ate shit and called it a job.
The machines are not coming for your purpose.
They are coming to prove that half the economy never had one.
I literally gasped watching this
Caleb Hammer asks how this transgender guest paid for his transition surgery, specifically “the boob job”
He replies “That was free — Colorado taxpayers”
- Transition surgery free
- Boob job free
- Hormones medications free
All this was free, paid for by American taxpayers
Again, I want to repeat this. US Taxpayers are paying for boob jobs for transgender men to get implants
I had to verify this and it’s all true
Colorado’s Medicaid program (Health First Colorado) covers gender-affirming care services, including surgeries like breast augmentation
This was recently changed under their Democrat Governor
In 2025, Colorado passed HB 25-1309 signed by Gov. Jared Polis. This codified and expanded insurance protections for gender-affirming care across plans, including hormone therapy, breast augmentation, facial surgery, and more
It even prevents insurers from denying what transgenders consider medically necessary care. Private insurance plans in the state must also cover these services under essential health benefits rules
Absolutely insane
@TuftsLacrosse looking forward to you, your douchy fans, announcer and coach getting wrecked tomorrow. There is a way to win with class and a way you dont and you've shown everyone just how unclassy your program is. ✌️
There are people in this country who rooted against their own country and own team in this game.
The team who wanted to share their victory with the children of their teammate who was killed by a drunk driver.
Perspective.
Dear Trans Community,
Let's get something straight.
(pun intended)
I don’t care if you identify as a toaster, a unicorn, or the lovechild of a chalupa and a protest sign.
Chase your bliss, live your truth, knock yourself out.
But don’t roll up with your pronoun rulebook, biology rewrites, or the audacity to demand every school, sitcom, and water cooler chat be your personal cheer squad.
Fck that.
And fck you for forcing that shit on me.
The First Amendment is my wingman, and it says I can speak my mind, call you out, and not clap like a trained seal for your every whim.
Freedom is my vibe, and I’m not trading it for your feelings.
Respect?
You want it?
Earn it.
Keep your choices out of my face and my kids’ classrooms.
Live and let live, not live and make it everyone else's problem.
I don’t care about your lifestyle any more than I care about my neighbor’s keto diet or my cousin’s obsession with sock puppets.
Don’t make your identity my homework.
This isn’t about denying your existence either.
It’s about mutual respect, not a one-way worship session.
Spare me the “inclusion” bullshit.
You’re 0.6% of the population.
That comes out to roughly 1.6 million of you.
Why do you need a standing ovation from the other 339 million of us?
I don’t need Lexi, the non-binary trans art student from Portland, signing off on my love for bald eagles and backyard barbecues.
So why do you crave my approval like it’s oxygen?
If you accept yourself, why am I getting your validation invoice?
How can you demand I embrace who you are now, when you couldn’t embrace who you were then?
Let’s keep it simple.
You do you, I’ll do me, and we’ll both keep the drama for reality TV.
In freedom,
Mr. Star-Spangled MAGA
Having the halftime show for your biggest game of the year in a language almost none of your lifelong fans can understand, while waving the flags of countries that none them are from, is the biggest fuck you that I’ve ever seen a corporation give to its own consumers
This wasn't murder.
Renee's death in Minneapolis is tragic.
But see it for what it is, not what you want it to be.
You can hate ICE.
But blocking officers then speeding off in a 2-ton vehicle with people at your bumper is irrational.
She rolled the dice. Sadly, she died.
In Charlie’s assassination, we lost not just a husband, father, and patriot — but a powerful evangelist whose words planted faithful seeds in millions of hearts.
One of many examples:
I am told that as a state representative this is the moment where I'm supposed to express my heartfelt condolences and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political violence and stand unified as one people.
But we aren't "one people" are we?
The truth is we haven't been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore, if there ever was.
We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the similarities seem to abruptly end.
I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a "threat to democracy" for even the most innocent of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect.
And now the "effect" is a widow and two orphaned children, because the left couldn’t bear the thought of a peaceful man debating them and winning.
I don’t think they realize it yet, but murdering Charlie is going to be remembered as the day where we finally woke up to what this fight really is.
It’s not a civil dispute among fellow countrymen. It’s a war between diametrically opposed worldviews which cannot peacefully coexist with one another. One side will win, and one side will lose.
Charlie tried to win that fight through argumentation, through discussion, through peaceful resolution of differences.
And the other side murdered him.
Not because he was “extreme” or “inciting violence” or any other hyperbolic slur they hurled at him. They murdered him because he was effective. Because he was unafraid. Because he inspired others and made them feel like they had a voice, that they were not alone. And he did it at the very institutions which have fomented so much hatred toward conservatives.
I don’t want to “stand in solidarity” with the other side of the aisle. I want to defeat you. I want to defeat the godless ideology that kills babies in the womb, sterilizes confused children, turns our cities into cesspools of degeneracy and lawlessness…and that murdered Charlie Kirk.
Social media is aflame right now with leftist celebration of Charlie’s death.
I wonder if any among them understand what has just happened. If there is a Yamamoto somewhere in their midst warning, that all they have done is awoken a sleeping giant.
I doubt it. I think they gave up such introspection and self-awareness long ago.
I don’t know exactly what will happen next. I just know that it won’t be the same as what has happened in the past.
There will be thoughts and prayers…Charlie would have wanted prayers. Not for himself but for those left behind and for the country that he loved.
But then there will be a reckoning.
My Christian faith requires me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse me. It does not require me to stand idly by in the midst of savagery and barbarism...quite the opposite.
So every time I feel tired, every time I feel discouraged or overwhelmed, I am going to watch the video of a good man being murdered in Utah…I will force myself to watch it…and then I will return to the work of destroying the evil ideology responsible for that and so much more.
Rest with God Charlie, your fight is over.
Ours is just beginning.
CNN’s already saying that the evil assassination attempt on Charlie Kirk is an example of “both sides” of today’s political divide.
No it’s not.
One side has to risk life and limb to express OPINIONS publicly.
One acts with impunity.
I saw this video this morning on my feed and I think it so eloquently explains what Charlie Kirk was put on this earth to do.
“When people stop talking, that’s when you get violence, that is when civil war happens”
