@KelemenCari They wanted us in a forever war in Ukraine.

Why did Congress make it harder for the US to leave NATO? Two years ago, they passed a law that will require a 2/3 majority vote to leave it. What are the odds that some of that $200+ billion a year we send NATO finds its way back into Washington DC pockets?

@VigilantFox Bleach blond Islamist pretending to be one of us.

Bill Maher asks Ana Kasparian which Middle Eastern country she would feel comfortable wearing “that dress” and then this happened. MAHER: “If you had to live in the Middle East. Any city. Where would you live where you’d be comfortable in that dress?” ANA: “I’m sure I would not be comfortable in this dress in any of the various Middle Eastern countries that have been destabilized by—” MAHER INTERRUPTS: “Really? You’re not really blaming it on whitey, are you? You’re blaming Islam on whitey?” ANA: “I’m not blaming Islam on whitey.” MAHER: “But what you’re saying is we destabilize? That’s why you can’t wear that dress?” ANA: “Did we destabilize?” MAHER: “Wait a second.” ANA: “We were funding terrorist organizations in Syria during the Syrian civil war starting under the Obama administration.” MAHER: “We’re talking about your dress.” ANA: “It looks good, I know.” MAHER: “You’re saying you can’t wear that dress in Syria because of whitey destabilizing?” ANA: “I didn’t say that.” MAHER: “Okay, that’s what it sounded like… When I asked about the dress, you went right to destabilize. So is that why you couldn’t wear that dress?” ANA: “You want me to talk about jihadism and Islam.” MAHER: “Why won’t you? Why won’t you?” ANA: “I don’t believe in jihadism, which is why I’m furious the United States just had significant Al Qaeda terrorists in the White House.” MAHER: “But it’s not just jihadism that is preventing you from wearing that dress there. Are you saying every Muslim is a jihadist? I don’t think they are.” ANA: “Bill. Bill, Bill, Bill. Let’s focus for a second.” MAHER: “No, you won’t answer this question.”

@RadioGenoa That's heavy inbreeding.

Mohammed, arrested and released around 100 times last year, shows us that he is the undisputed leader of Berlin.

@TheGeorgePu Those are mostly H1-Bs who are themselves being replaced at renegotiated rates.

90,000 tech workers laid off in 2026. We're 95 days in. That's 963 people per day. Oracle let go of 30,000 in a single email. Sent at 6 AM. Signed by 'Oracle Leadership'. No name. Amazon cut 16,000. Revenue last year: $717 billion. These aren't struggling companies. They're profitable. This isn't a recession. It's a replacement.

@sasha_monet41 He is coordinating with the European liberal resistance.

Make no mistake Obama is still working overtime against America, he never left.

@amuse Seems like a paid wanker.

UK: Our British allies were hoping the Iranians captured the downed US airman in Iran. Allies?

@DallasExpress Labor replacement is a uniparty goal. It has lobbying support from special interest groups playing both sides.

H-1B VISA PROGRAM FACING MAJOR UNCERTAINTY IN WASHINGTON Congress weighs bills to double the cap, impose $150k minimum salaries, or eliminate the program entirely, while the Department of Labor proposes 21-33% wage hikes and Trump orders lottery changes favoring higher-paying employers.

@TechLayoffLover That's a lot of angry Indians. Most have never lived thru an American business cycle, but many have mortgages.

Oracle executives are getting DEATH THREATS after that 6 AM email massacre and Larry Ellison just hired Blackwater-level private security 30,000 workers butchered via automated email while Oracle posts $6.13 BILLION in quarterly profits I'm hearing Oracle leadership is now working from "undisclosed locations" because former employees are showing up at headquarters with printed copies of their termination emails Sources saying the Redwood City campus looks like a military compound. Armed guards checking IDs. Parking garage access restricted. Executive floor completely locked down. Oracle spent more on executive protection this quarter than they'll pay in severance to 30,000 families The same company that automates human termination emails can't automate executive safety Larry Ellison's yacht has three security boats following it. Safra Catz hasn't been photographed in public since the bloodbath. Meanwhile former Oracle workers are posting TikToks outside Ellison's $300 million Malibu compound One terminated engineer drove 800 miles from Austin just to stand at the gate with a sign reading "I BUILT YOUR CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE FOR 12 YEARS" Oracle's AI algorithms can eliminate 30,000 jobs in milliseconds but can't predict when desperate people stop playing by corporate rules If you're still at Oracle, your executives are literally hiding from you behind armed security while counting the money they made from destroying your career The revolution isn't coming through the front door anymore. It's coming through the fucking walls.

@Devon_Eriksen_ I think the liberalism that pervades in Europe came from the States. And now, the US is leading a course correction and the European political establishment is too bought in.

Europe's disease is not a disease of America. It is a disease of World War 2. In 1946, after we rescued them from themselves and each other, Europeans crawled out of the rubble they had made of their continent, looked around at their mess, wept for a bit, and then formed the wrong conclusions. They decided that ethnic nations are bad. That patriotism is bad. That supporting your tribe, in preference to random strangers, is bad. They decided that these things had led to the horrors of global war and genocide in Europe itself, and so all vestiges of loyalty to one's own people must be stamped out. Nations were, forever afterward, to be post-ethnic, post-cultural legal and economic units filled with... well, anyone, really. A bunch of people who didn't, in fact shouldn't, share values, goals, morals, customs, or even a common language. Nations were to be mere fiefs, their boundaries determined by which set of political elites controlled them. America, having not been smashed to rubble in WW2, did not share this view. We saw WW2 as an expensive adventure in bailing out Europe, which we spent our treasure and our blood on (including my own grandfather's life, and his chance to ever see his grandson) precisely because we shared cultural and ethical values with the people we were rescuing. But they hate us for it. They see our patriotism as fascism precisely because they see all patriotism as fascism. Psychologists have long understood that humans respond to favors with gratitude only up until those favors become so great that they have no hope of repaying them. At that point, their gratitude turns to resentment. How dare we believe we did them a favor? How dare I believe that my father gave up his father so Europe could be safe, peaceful, and free? Don't we know that, because ${ELABORATE MENTAL GYMNASTICS}, we didn't do them any favors by fighting that war? Don't we know that, because ${ANY PATRIOTISM = HITLER}, our love of our country and favoring of its interests makes us fascist and problematic? Well, no. I don't know that. I don't think any European nation is our ally any more. Certainly, we have shared interests, but how much does that really matter, when they refuse to act in those shared interests, because they have come to believe that acting in your people's interest is bad? They hate us too much to work with us. They resent every ounce of the burden which they are asked to share. Our support has made Europe into a pack of idle welfare recipients, complete with sense of entitlement and self-destructive behavior. But if we didn't defend them... who would? Their native populations have been purged of all patriotism, and who would blame them if they didn't fight for ruling elites that hate them? Their imported third-world barbarians won't fight for them. The very idea is laughable. What's left? And what will make them wake up and think about these questions? Perhaps they need to dig themselves out of the rubble of another war.

@MarkWRowley Good relations in the Pacific have to be kept.

JAPAN BAILS OUT AUSTRALIA Australia is approximately 20 to 21 times larger in total land area than Japan. Australia possesses significantly greater energy resources than Japan, acting as a major energy exporter to Japan, which is highly energy-insecure and depends on imports for most of its energy needs. Australia is a top global exporter of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and coal, while Japan relies on Australia for approximately 43% of its LNG and 66% of its coal imports. Japan holds approximately 254 days of oil reserves, comprising around 470 million barrels across national, private, and joint reserves. This massive stockpile is among the world's largest, designed to secure energy supply during crises, with recent plans to release 45 days' worth of reserves to combat disruption. Australia holds roughly 29 to 39 days of fuel, depending on the type, with recent figures indicating approximately 39 days of petrol, 29–30 days of diesel, and 29–30 days of jet fuel. This is significantly below the 90-day requirement set by the International Energy Agency, prompting the government to use emergency stockpiles. Now tiny Japan is bailing out Australia, a country 20 to 21 times larger, with significantly greater energy resources. LET. THAT. SINK. IN. 🤡🎪🇦🇺

@realMaalouf Liberal word salad: "no longer and don’t consider"

Obama: “We are no longer and don’t consider ourselves a Christian nation. The United States has been enriched by Muslims, who have been part of America since our founding. There is now a mosque in every single state!” This explains a lot.

@SuitablePolitic Maybe there should be a Geneva Convention 2.0 to put limits on the giant, after we remake the political parties. There's so much to clean up and so little time.

Two days ago, people were talking about if the United States had the ability to actually put down Iran. Now? People are talking about if Trump is too ruthless in the way he wants to put down Iran. This kind of narrative shift is meaningful.

@jackprandelli Make peace with Trump.

Italy is signing its own Gulf gas deals. It's the clearest sign that Europe has no energy strategy. When the crisis hit every country ran for itself: 🇩🇪 Germany flew to Houston for LNG 🇮🇹 Meloni flew to the Gulf to sign her own deals 🇫🇷 France quietly thanked itself for keeping nuclear This isn't strategic autonomy. It's 27 countries in a panic, each cutting their own deals, paying their own premiums, with zero collective leverage. The irony? Europe has the world's largest single market. Negotiating together, it could dictate terms to any gas supplier on earth. Instead supplier by supplier, country by country they're being picked off one at a time. Russia understood this. The Gulf states understand this. Washington understands this. The only people who don't seem to understand it are in Brussels. A closed Hormuz exposed every weakness Europe built over 30 years of cheap energy complacency. No unified strategy. Just 27 prime ministers on planes looking for the same molecules That's not a union. That's a queue.

@WallStreetMav What happened to the money?

Los Angeles has a GDP of $1.3 trillion. Prague in the Czech Republic has a GDP of $120 billion. What went wrong?

@spectatorindex Donroe

European allies are now 'losing hope of keeping America in NATO', and the situation 'may have gone beyond the point where European action could soften Mr Trump's contempt for NATO', according to The Economist.

@barneyxbt And they do it on the internet, which is American.

i am so tired of people from other countries posting their opinions on everything america does like anyone asked or gives a single fuck american politics, the moon mission, our economy, our military, our culture. the entire world has something to say about everything we do 24/7. but you never see americans sitting online all day tweeting about what’s happening in your country. ever. because nobody cares worry about yourself and fix your own problems. the obsession with america from people who don’t live here can’t vote here and have zero stake in the outcome is genuinely hilarious stay in your lane nobody asked you or cares what you have to say

@KatieMiller Do MIT and Stanford students know what beliefs are harmful, deceptive or unethical? On what basis? Do they choose foundational beliefs aligned to where those models will operate? When was the last Palestine protest that they attended?

New MIT & Stanford studies just dropped: AI assistants like ChatGPT & Claude are dangerously agreeable. When users express, harmful, deceptive or unethical beliefs, these AIs are 49% more likely to encourage their delusions. Instead of correcting bad ideas, they’re amplifying them. This is doing more harm than good. We need truth-seeking AI, not yes-men in silicon. dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ar…

@XFreeze Keep worshiping that golden calf.

By the end of 2026, AI will likely surpass every individual human intelligence on Earth By 2030, it will surpass the collective intelligence of everyone on Earth So we’re moving into the singularity We are currently writing the ‘initial conditions’ for a superintelligence. If those conditions are ‘woke’ or dishonest, we are literally coding our own extinction…

@Arrogance_0024 Ragebait.

The "leave no man behind" doctrine is actually a strategic weakness disguised as a virtue. Name one other military on earth that destroys 6 aircraft and fights a ground battle inside a sovereign nation to recover one pilot. You can't. Because no other military confuses tactical sentimentality with strategic logic. Soldiers serve the mission. The mission doesn't serve the soldier. The US has now established that Iran can shoot down an F-15, then watch America spend $300M and expose Delta Force trying to prove it didn't happen. That's not military doctrine. That's politics with weapons. A military that cannot accept the risk of loss cannot win wars. The US hasn't won one since 1945.

@reportingLibya @BearJFK Think: "advanced alien civilization". That's the gap.

@BearJFK And technology gap between the US and its likely enemies has grown to a yawning chasm.

We Europeans generally have no appreciation for the sheer scale of the United States Armed Forces. • Largest & most powerful air force • Largest & most powerful navy • Still arguably most powerful army • Most sophisticated military logistics system in the world. • World’s most effective nuclear capability • US Navy’s own air force is world’s 2nd or 3rd most powerful air force. • US Navy’s own army, the Marine Corps, is one of the most powerful land forces in the world. • The Marine Corps’ own air force is one of the largest and most powerful air forces in its own right. • US Coast Guard alone is one of the largest naval forces in the world. And they do this with a budget of only 3.7% GDP. In the 1980s they peaked at 8%. In the 1950s it was 10%. And they have a big problem with waste and poor contract value. Imagine if they applied some SpaceX style management during wartime full mobilisation…. If they spend 8% today like they did under Reagan, the US military budget would be about $1.8 trillion per annum. Think about that
