Requiring an ID and proof of citizenship to vote is common sense.

It’s time to pass the SAVE America Act. RT if you agree.

@huavancuong1507 A good man there. /Salute

Best Sec of State in my lifetime.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

The International Criminal Court seeks to become the unaccountable arbiter of a new global law — empowered to prosecute and arrest our citizens at will and existentially threaten American sovereignty.

We will teach the ICC the full meaning of American resolve.

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

@SecRubio @GovTimWalz @ICEgov Forget about politics. This is exactly what State department should be doing...protecting American citizens

@DesireeAmerica4 Shaq continues to be a good human being. Bravo

@CynicalPublius The complaints against Trump and the 250th anniversary are loud on social media....all the shut ins were home while families, Soldiers, patriots were out celebrating. God Bless the USA!

@Maximonious1 $SKM is a good proxy - it has a stake in Anthropic and is a well run S. Korean telecom. Recommend shares or if you have a higher risk tolerance, leap options as the IPO timeline is not known.

But much of the bump is already priced in. Still, a vehicle for 20-30% gain.

National Treasure - J.K. Rowling.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

You mean men, men who claim to be women. You are a national broadcaster that consistently obfuscates facts around sex because you’ve taken an ideological position the public overwhelmingly rejects. This isn’t news, it’s propaganda.

@bdnitetrain @rationalhumanis True. Morbius out grossed this one.

@EZ_Bath @Timcast Free speech does not mean freedom from consequences.

Alienate the core audience may not be the best marketing move by an actress or studio. Then again, maybe they will make big bucks when it hits streaming next month....

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

@pittman72331 @elonmusk You missed the whole point.

It isn't about the movie. It is about the censorship.

Censorship is evil, regardless of the intentions around it.

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

@BmartinBrent @elonmusk Now post your response to the rape report from the UK...

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

@elonmusk @elonmusk is the GOAT. The film and its message are up to discuss.

Attempted censorship eliminated in a single post post by the world's greatest active proponent of freedom.

Censorship is evil.

@MarcoFoster_ I am so old that I remember when computers were introduced into the workplace, the same dummer talk existed. Of course it was in print and is fun to look up now as context.. Theo is just dead wrong here

A must read for the energy future of the USA.

[Seth Cohen @OverReactor1776]

Now that I’m out of government, I can finally respond for myself: Get bent, soyboy. We didn’t do this for “Silicon Valley . . . companies.” We did this for you, for your family, your community, your state, your nation, and your species.

Nuclear energy provides the safest, highest density, reliable power available on our planet. My career colleagues at DOE and NRC inspired me to think about nuclear as a way to forge American steel and electrolyze aluminum without releasing particulate matter, to desalinate water in the Middle East and save humanity from resource wars. By rejecting the false narratives and Cold War hysteria, we can secure the next American century while raising whole countries out of poverty.

Do you really think I left an incredible career at Kirkland, paid out of pocket for an apartment in DC and dozens of cross-country trips, and left my family on the west coast because I wanted to enrich people I never met before taking this job? I came to D.C. to do something that mattered, to satisfy a driving curiosity (more on that later), and, most importantly, to serve.

As I learned more about nuclear energy and its history, I developed a conviction that one nuclear’s biggest issues was a culture of cynicism: nothing new or exciting could happen because it would end in disappointment, and that militated against rocking the boat even a tiny bit. The career staff in government and their industry counterparts lived through dark winters before and stopped believing that warm springs could bloom into summers.

I have two core philosophies. First, I believe in ruthless optimism. Rational decision making requires detached risk analysis. But we also cannot win if we believe we can lose. Merging the two requires orienting teams around driving missions. That way, when a real opportunity presents itself, you can take a huge swing.

If I take credit for anything—honestly, almost all of the success belongs to the incredible and dedicated people at @ENERGY and @NRCgov—it’s countering the cultural rot and morass that risked forfeiting American excellence. My colleagues and I gave cover to the scientists and engineers, which freed them up to focus on delivering safe power. And, as success materialized, they started to dream again. That’s why the pilot program succeeded, and why I feel confident about the future of NLICs and NRC reform. Nobody needs me anymore because they can innovate on their own.

My second core philosophy is to assume positive intent. Avi, I know that you heard about my real motivations from multiple people you interviewed when preparing your hit piece on me. Rather than telling that story, one which could help inspire another generation of people to use their talents for the greater good, you ignored them. Instead, you implied that Peter Thiel recruited me for nefarious purposes. (I’ve never met him, but, @peterthiel, if you’re reading this, I’m a huge fan!)

Nuclear regulation starts and ends with safety. I promised everyone I worked with that I would resign before doing or pushing for anything that could compromise public safety. But I also distinguished between real safety and performative bullshit. That’s what the careers came to embrace, too. We love nuclear, why would we do anything that could risk threatening its future?

America faces a crossroads. We can either trod a road of cultural decay or hike our way back to the peak of global innovation. Join me on the latter path. Correct the fear mongering and conspiracies and tell the story of America’s great reindustrialization. Tell the story of our public servants, our great entrepreneurs, our scientific dominance. Tell the real story about how DOGE went nuclear.

@catturd2 Catastrophic. Eventually the anger will boil over and the UK will have to deal with the outcomes.

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

@ZubyMusic Common sense is now right wing. I am so old that I remember USA "Blue Dog" democrats calling for the exact same thing not so long ago.

The problem with the left is the loudest and craziest positions have become their 'center'.

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

Asmongold will read the entire report on his stream this week. I don't think folks are ready to hear the details.

I am an American and cannot understand this at any level - abject failure of leadership, law enforcement (how did they see this and NOT blow the whistle?), and the people.

[William Rummel @therealNodakk]

@gtconway3d @realDonaldTrump Missing your hit piece when Joe Biden had bare chested Trans peeps on the white house lawn. Decorum indeed.
