@msiobhanjordan @TrpstrLeonOG The Fed devalued our currency just as the liberals devalued our citizenship.

I remember thinking the same thing when my FIL retired from GM at 57 in 1987.
Our 1st home was 1/2 the size of his, which he only paid $11,000 while ours was $50,000. Mortgage rates were 15%. Only teamsters, UAW, cops, firefighters and teachers were getting pensions at that time. DPW and white collar automaker pensions had faded away by then.
I sure as hell don’t remember bitching about it.

My dad retired at 61.
Union pension.
House paid off years ago.
Medicare coming soon.
Social Security locked in.
At dinner he told me people my age just need to “budget better.”
I make $74k a year.
My rent is $2,050.
I’ve got maybe $3,500 saved after bills.
I just nodded and passed the potatoes.
But what I wanted to say was:
Your retirement existed because companies still offered pensions.
Your Social Security works because my generation keeps paying into it.
Your home doubled in value while mine feels permanently out of reach.
You didn’t crack some secret code.
You were born into an economy that hadn’t pulled the ladder up yet.

President Trump yesterday: "Their missiles are mostly decimated; they have some, they have probably 18, 19 percent, but not a lot by comparison to what they had."
WaPo today: "Iran retains about 75 percent of its prewar inventories of mobile launchers and about 70 percent of its prewar stockpiles of missiles, a U.S. official said. The official said there is evidence that the regime has been able to recover and reopen almost all of its underground storage facilities, repair some damaged missiles and even assemble some new missiles that were nearly complete when the war began."

@Saishiv17 @KobeissiLetter They didn't "flip". The NBC "story was never true.

@KobeissiLetter What did Trump promise the Saudis to flip them in 2 days?

BREAKING: Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have reversed their decision to restrict the US military's use of their bases and airspace for "Project Freedom," per WSJ.
Details include:
1. Earlier this week, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait reportedly blocked the US from using their bases and airspace for military operations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz
2. Now that the decision has been reversed, President Trump is looking to "restart" Project Freedom
3. The US operation relies on a large fleet of aircraft to protect commercial ships, making Saudi and Kuwaiti bases and airspace critical to its execution
US oil prices are surging on the news.

@dhairyatandon08 @KobeissiLetter I doubt that the story was ever true.
English

@KobeissiLetter Diplomatic whiplash in 48 hours. Gulf states went from 'no bases' to 'Project Freedom is back on' faster than oil can spike.

@KobeissiLetter The original story from NBC was never confirmed. "Reportedly" is weak workaround for what may have been a fictional bit of fake news from NBC.
English

Wow.
Will Trump now trash the Saudis like he did the Europeans? (I doubt it)

EXCLUSIVE: Trump's abrupt U-turn on a plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz came after Saudi Arabia suspended U.S. access to its bases and airspace. nbcnews.com/politics/white…

BREAKING: Trump's "Project Freedom" collapsed after Saudi Arabia and Kuwait suspended US military access to their bases, airspace, and overflight rights, per NBC News and Ryan Grim.
The Kingdom blocked the US from flying aircraft out of Prince Sultan Airbase or through Saudi airspace, completely grounding the operation and removing the air defense umbrella protecting ships in transit.
Saudi leadership was "furious" after Trump announced Project Freedom on Truth Social without notifying them. Qatar and Oman were also blindsided, with Trump only contacting them after the operation began. A direct call between Trump and Crown Prince MBS failed to resolve the situation.

@WallStreetApes They will have to take a look at the existing neighborhood electric infrastructure. Might be pushing the limits.

New startup company will put ‘Mini Data Centers’ on the side of residential homes all over America
Companies Nvidia and PulteGroup are patterning with SPAN, “A major U.S home builder is now making small fractional data centers, or they call them nodes that can be put on the side of residential homes.”
“These could negate the need to build as many hyperscalers and AI cloud providers Just tap into the node network like a regular data center now SPAN, collaborated with NVIDIA using its technology in the system span claims it can install 8,000 of these units about six times faster and at five times lower cost than the construction of a typical centralized 100 megawatt data center of the same size.”
In return for letting this company put a mini data center on the side of your home, you’ll get a $150 credit on your electricity bill
In some locations you could get free electricity and internet

@onlydubsX America's biggest problem is drug addiction. Brian Cranston sympathetically plays an illegal drug chemist on the big screen. I don't care what Brian Cranston thinks, he creates fictional death and addiction, the worst kind of slavery, for fun and profit.

@KVOA Why only "nonprofits"? What if a "for profit" company can provide services for less money?

@DreamAmerica_ Mayor Pete appeals to the uneducated Lowest Common Denominator. Sad.

This all started after a protester confronted me about protest footage that aired on Jimmy Kimmel.
He claimed it came from Frontlines and that I was the one who filmed it.
(He was correct)
Afterward, I was repeatedly confronted and surrounded throughout the protest, yet I stayed nothing but respectful, even as some called for me to get “kirk’d”.
Then came the targeted arrest that, unfortunately, led me straight into the unwell activist, Christopher Almaraz, whom you see in this video.
In all my years of reporting, the far left has always been hostile to independent media or any outlet that doesn’t “align” with their interests. However, over the past year, targeted harassment and violence against reporters have seen a drastic uptick, and real accountability has been almost nonexistent.
Members of the press should not have to worry about being harmed or worse by violent radicals simply for doing their jobs. I’ve worked for quite a few companies, yet I’ve never been explicitly targeted because of the company I work for… until @FrontlinesTPUSA.

BREAKING: Far-left militants dressed in black bloc accosted our reporter @TaylerUSA outside the Metropolitan Police Department in Los Angeles while he covered a May Day demonstration. The mob first surrounded him, deliberately outing his work with Turning Point USA to paint a target on his back. They warned him he risked getting “Kirk’d” and demanded he leave — then repeatedly screamed: “F*** Charlie Kirk! F*** him in his neck hole!” @TPUSA

Residents in the Rocking K community say almost a dozen people have gone to the doctor with pneumonia over the past three years. Arizona Game and Fish and PDEQ are investigating whether pigeon droppings and construction dust could be connected. #News4Tucson
