This is the most honest assessment I've heard about what happened during Daytona Spring Break on the beach that day.

Rob Finnerty on NYC’s streets: “New York City, literally right outside where I am sitting right now, looks more like Mogadishu or Bangladesh than it does the most important city in the world.” @RobFinnertyUSA

This is why they ban guns: so their blacks can murder you faster

This is the longest bridge in America. Who knew? I didn’t!

Philly DA Larry Krasner threatens ICE agents working at the airport with arrest: "The president cannot pardon you. I will put you in handcuffs. And if necessary, I will put you in a jail cell." Krasner was promising to hunt down ICE agents like Nazis a couple of months ago.

🚨🚨THIS IS INSANE🚨🚨 Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love vs. #Eagles Saquon Barkley 40-yard-dash sprints🤯🤯 Two of the most talented college RB's we've ever seen.

Adam Schefter on RB Jeremiah Love: “As we sit here today, my guess would be I don’t see him going to Tennessee. I don’t see him going to the Giants at #5 … To me, a place that makes sense today, a month out, would be the Washington Commanders.” 👀 (🎥:@PatMcAfeeShow)

"How are you getting the $700M to make the buses free?" "Through the raising of the state's corporate tax." "But [Gov. Hochul] said no." "The most important fact is that we fund it not the question of how we do it."

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Young man UNLEASHES on Philadelphia Democrat council 🫳🎤 "Are you tired of voting Democrat yet?! THIS is what communism looks like. You work extremely hard to save your pennies, but buy some property and you can't dictate when you want to evict a tenant!" "Do you really own your property or not? But we know what Philly Democrat politicians love communism for, because they let Comrade Mayor Cherelle Parker raise the communist China flag in the birthplace of America!" 🔥 "Racist Democrat President LBJ said, 'I'm going to have these n*ggas voting Democrat for the next 200 years.' But you can change that in November!" "Thank you for your attention to this matter." H/t @MAGAVoice

Democrats just shot themselves in the foot… And people in leftist towns like Atlanta are discovering that ICE is both kind and efficient. CNN having to report on this is incredible.

Actor Vince Vaughn calls out late-night comedians, says people like Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, and others have all become the “SAME SHOW.” “It stopped being funny, and it started feeling like I was in a f*cking class I didn’t want to take.” THEO VON: “A lot of the late shows have struggled.” VINCE VAUGHN: “Oh, bro.” THEO: “Because… the only person they could make fun of at a certain point was just like white redneck kind of people. And it f*cking tanked [ratings].” VINCE: “I think that the talk shows, to a large part, became really agenda-based.” “They were gonna evangelize people to what they thought… It felt like they had an agenda.” “It stopped being funny, and it started feeling like I was in a f*cking class I didn’t want to take.” “They all became the same show.” “And they all became so about their politics and who’s good and who’s bad.” “Imagine sitting next to someone like that on a f*cking plane. You’d be like, how do I get out of this f*cking seat?” THEO: “I would FART right next to them.” VINCE: “You’d fart your way out of it?” THEO: “Yeah, I would. I would for sure.”

CM Punk really looked Roman Reigns in the eyes, called him old, and then put him to sleep. This man is a professional hater and I am here for every second of it. The microphone is his weapon and we are just witnesses.

Mark Henry on Vince McMahon telling him that he could take off for as long as he needed after his mom passed away “Vince was like look I know you’re a momma’s boy. Get out of here and come back when you’re ready. I was out a year. He paid me every week.”

September 1997. Steve Jobs stands before Apple employees and tells them he's been up until 3am finishing an ad. He's been back at the company for eight weeks. Apple lost $1 billion that year. Three months earlier, WIRED put Apple's logo on its cover, wrapped in barbed wire, with the word "Pray." He starts by saying what he's found since coming back. He couldn't figure out Apple's own product line. He spent weeks trying to understand which model was which and how they fit together. He talked to customers. They couldn't figure it out either. He cut 70% of the product roadmap. People whose projects were canceled were, in his words, "three feet off the ground with excitement" because, for the first time in years, someone told them where the company was going. Then he says something about marketing that changed how every tech company thinks about advertising. He says Nike sells a commodity. They sell shoes. But when you think of Nike, you feel something different than a shoe company. Nike never talks about their products in ads. Never tells you why their air soles are better than Reebok's. "They honor great athletes. And they honor great athletics. That's who they are." He compares it to the dairy industry spending 20 years trying to convince people milk was good for them, failing, and then running "Got Milk," which doesn't even mention the product. Focuses on its absence. He says Apple spends a fortune on advertising. "You'd never know it." Then he fires the ad agency. Not just fires them. Apple was running a competition with 23 agencies. He scrapped the whole thing and hired Chiat/Day, the agency he'd worked with a decade earlier on the 1984 Macintosh commercial that advertising professionals voted the best ad ever made. The question they asked themselves: "Our customers want to know who is Apple and what is it that we stand for?" His answer: "Apple at its core, its core value, is that we believe that people with passion can change the world for the better. And that those people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones that actually do." Then he plays the ad. In this room. To Apple employees. For the first time. "Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers." He says almost none of these people had ever appeared in an advertisement before. He personally obtained Yoko Ono's permission to use John Lennon. He says the estates and living subjects agreed because of their feelings toward Apple. "I don't think there is another company on Earth that could have done this campaign." The ad broke that Sunday during the network premiere of Toy Story on ABC. Two 60-second spots. Newspaper ads in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and USA Today. Billboards in major cities. Buses in five cities featuring Rosa Parks. Painted walls. The whole thing. Apple's stock was around $0.10 split-adjusted when this meeting happened. The company is worth $3.68 trillion today. Think Different ran for five years. Every product that came after, the iMac, iPod, iPhone, iPad, was built on the identity this campaign established by a guy who'd been back at the company for eight weeks and finished the ad at three in the morning. Video: Steve Jobs internal staff meeting at Apple, September 1997. This is the first time the Think Different campaign has been shown to employees. Jobs had been back at Apple for eight weeks. Footage leaked from an internal recording.

The Laffer Curve warns that higher taxes are not always better for government coffers. At some point, pushing rates higher starts to shrink the economy and the tax base so much that total revenue falls, as Massachusetts is finding out.

Most men can contribute to a child's DNA, but only a few choose to contribute to their future. Stepping up isn’t just a responsibility; it’s a character test. We need to normalize "do better" energy and prioritize the kids who didn't ask to be here. ​Which one are you: a contributor or a father? ⬇️

'DISGUSTING': A progressive Chicago alderwoman is facing backlash after suggesting a college student allegedly shot and killed by a suspected illegal immigrant may have been in the “wrong place at the wrong time” and may have "startled" the gunman. Critics on social media called the remarks insensitive and raised concerns about local leadership’s response to violent crime.

When you haven’t done the reading but get called on in class

A Seattle man who shot and killed an eight-month pregnant Korean-American woman and nearly killed her husband when they were driving to work has been found not guilty by reason of insanity. Cordell Goosby m—rdered Elina Kwon and her unborn baby in June 2023 when they were stopped at a red light. Prosecutors did not charge him for killing the baby due to concerns about protecting abortion in the liberal state. After hearing testimony from defense medical experts that Goosby was "insane" at the time of the shootings, the prosecution agreed to have the case ended through the not guilty motion. Goosby will be committed to an institution and regularly evaluated to see if he is fit to be released to the public. ngocomment.com
