If you believe people deserve to be shot for their opinions, don’t cry when you get fired for yours.

Hippies did nothing and benefitted from the greatest economic era and the last dwindling age of near homogeneity just to become condescending libs and blow their unearned wealth so their children and grandchildren were left out to dry.

⚓️‼️ US Carrier Update
Satellite imagery from yesterday reveals that CSG-3 (USS Fraidy Abe CVN-72) and the USS Tripoli (and its Marines) have ventured MUCH CLOSER (~400 km) to the Iranian coast.
This puts them within the un-refueled combat radius of the Fraidy Abe's fighters.

You've been here almost 40 years and you still consider yourself an Indian, not an American:
"...our Bharatiya way"
"...our Bharatiya civilisation"
This is the biggest reason you need to go back home. You're NOT an American.
You're an Indian living in America.
Sridhar Vembu@svembu
Open letter to Indians in America. -- Dear brothers and sisters from Bharat: Like I did 37 years ago, you arrived in America with no money but with a good education and cultural heritage from Bharat. You achieved outstanding success. America was good to us. For that we must remain grateful - gratitude is our Bharatiya way. Yet today, a significant number of Americans, may be not the majority but not too far from it either, believe that Indians "take away" American jobs and our success in America was unfairly earned. You may think the next election will fix this, but your choice would be between people who hate our Bharatiya civilisation and people who hate civilisation itself. That is the "hard right" vs "woke left" battle. You are mere bystanders to that conflict. Meanwhile there is one thing that is true now and will be true in the future: the respect Indians command world-wide will substantially depend on the fortunes of India herself. If India remains poor, the woke left will give us moral lectures with pity and the hard right, different moral lectures with scorn ("hellhole") and we must not confuse either with respect. Respect in today's world, along with prosperity and security, comes from one source: a nation's technological prowess. India produces sufficient brain power to achieve that prowess but alas we exported so much of that talent, particularly to America. As we develop that prowess in India, our civilisational strength will assert itself. As difficult as it is for many of you to contemplate this, please come back home. Bharat Mata needs your talent. Our vast youthful population needs the technology leadership you gained over the years to guide them towards prosperity. Let's do it with a missionary zeal. Respectfully Sridhar Vembu

Brian Kellar, the Senior Vice President of Regional Markets for @AspirusHealth, responded to Minocqua Brewing Company's post hoping for the ass*ssination of Trump, with a picture of himself wearing a "F*ck Donald Trump" shirt.
A senior official at a healthcare company is supporting calls for violence against the sitting president.
Any comment @AspirusHealth?

A pasture grazed by cattle alone is a good pasture.
A pasture grazed by cattle and sheep, together, is something else entirely.
The cattle take the long grass, the coarse stems, the rougher patches. The sheep follow behind and clean up what the cattle ignored: the shorter regrowth, the wildflowers, the species the cattle wouldn't touch. The pasture gets grazed at two heights, by two different mouths, on two different patterns. Twice the use. Twice the work. None of the waste.
Add a goat and the bramble line goes. Add a pig on the woodland edge and the parasite cycles break. Add a few geese and the weeds you didn't even know you had quietly disappear.
The result is consistently the highest-biodiversity, highest-productivity, lowest-input agricultural system on earth. Higher protein per acre than arable. More carbon in the soil. More birds. More wildflowers. Less disease. Less input. Each species breaks the parasite cycle of the others. Each one prefers the plants the others avoid. The system tunes itself.
This is not innovative. It is what almost every functional agricultural society on earth has done forever. Roman estates. Medieval manors. Mongolian camps. Welsh hill farms.
The single-species, single-field, single-product model that replaced it is about a hundred years old and is running out of steam on every metric you can measure.
The fix is older than the problem. It is a Welsh farm with cattle on the lower pasture, sheep on the upper, a goat on the bramble line, and a couple of geese in the orchard.
The farmer would explain it in four minutes if you asked.
The policy paper has not asked.

@AuronMacintyre ??? The Spanish Civil War was when a bunch of leftwing communists funded by foreign operators tried to subvert the government and rule of law? Yes, it does look like we are going in that direction... I mean, to the extent that we aren't already there.

After the Spanish Right won the 1933 elections, Communists in Asturias launched a revolution, killing thousands before the army was deployed to finally put an end to the chaos.
They did the same thing in Catalonia, and when that too was quelled, they engaged in a low-level terrorist campaign all over the country, planting bombs, sabotaging infrastructure, assassinating newspaper editors and political figures, and staging general strikes all over Spain.
They kept doing this until they finally won the 1936 election, at which point the Left went full mask-off and began unleashing thousands of criminals into the streets, ransacking businesses, dragging conservatives out of their homes to beat them, and going into the countryside to expropriate private property. The entire country descended into a state of near-total anarchy in a matter of months.
The Left spent years agitating for a Marxist revolution in Spain and refused to obey the legal system because they saw the Spanish Republic as a mechanism to achieve Leftism, not as a neutral system intended to uphold democracy, the constitution, or the rule of law.
And thus, any deviation from the march towards Leftism was seen as an illegitimate act of treason and proof of an imminent fascist takeover of the state. As a result, ANY electoral victory by the Right was inherently treated as illegal by the Left, and ANY attempt to actually govern in accordance with Right-wing principles was seen as just cause to engage in violent insurrection.
You cannot have a country like this for long. If one side treats the process as illegitimate unless it produces their desired ideological outcome, they will inevitably win unless they're physically stopped.

Now is a good time to familiarize yourself with the prelude to the Spanish Civil War Because if the right doesn’t learn that particular lesson of history very quickly we’re about to repeat it

Tu hijo no tiene ansiedad.
Lo que tiene es falta de hambre.
Y la culpa es tuya.
Ayer despedí a un chico de 22 años a los diez minutos de empezar su periodo de prueba.
¿El motivo?
Me preguntó cuántas pausas para el café tenía y si el trabajo era "presencial obligatorio" porque le generaba estrés el transporte público.
Le di su mochila y le abrí la puerta.
Sin drama.
Sin explicaciones.
Estamos en 2026 y hemos creado un monstruo: el profesional de cristal.
Gente que cree que el sueldo es un derecho de nacimiento y que el esfuerzo es "explotación".
Me dicen:
—"Es que los tiempos han cambiado, ahora priorizamos el bienestar".
Mentira.
Priorizáis la mediocridad.
Priorizáis el camino fácil mientras el resto del mundo os pasa por la derecha sin pedir permiso.
El éxito no es apto para gente que necesita un "espacio seguro" cada vez que recibe una crítica.
El dinero no fluye hacia los que esperan que la empresa se adapte a sus traumas infantiles.
Si te ofende este texto, felicidades: eres parte del problema.
Eres de los que piensan que "ser amable" es más importante que ser eficiente.
Eres de los que confunden tener una opinión con tener resultados.
He visto a padres arruinarse pagando carreras privadas para que sus hijos terminen llorando en un hilo de X porque su jefe les ha pedido que lleguen puntuales.
¿Quieres ayudar a tu hijo?
Deja de protegerlo de la realidad.
Deja de validar sus excusas.
Enséñale que el mundo es un lugar hostil que desayuna gente con "potencial" y merienda gente con "títulos".
La verdadera salud mental es ser capaz de sostener tu vida sobre tus propios hombros sin pedirle a los demás que carguen con tu peso.
Aquel chico se fue llamándome "boomer".
Yo me volví a mi mesa a trabajar con gente que sabe que, en el barro, las etiquetas de cristal no sirven para nada.
El mundo no te debe nada.
Aceptarlo es el primer paso para dejar de ser un estorbo.

25% of very liberal people say political violence can “sometimes be justified.”
Among very conservative people it’s just 3%.
In other words, the far left is 8x more likely to support political violence as the far right.
Stop pretending this is a “both sides” problem. It’s not.

I have never met this person or interacted with them online.
I have never interacted with the Persian Jewish community of NYC in any way.

Meet Timothy Lee Peterson. He said he is praying that Trump dies and that he’s disappointed it hasn’t happened yet.
He claims to be a black belt in jiu-jitsu which is quite strange because the principles of this martial art emphasizes respect, humility, self-improvement, discipline and community. Jiu-Jitsu encourages becoming a better version of yourself.
I call on the martial arts community to call out this embarrassing and unprofessional behavior.

5 years ago Kelly Loeffler's WNBA team publicly backstabbed her during her campaign for the senate seat in Georgia, and now she's about to inflict the largest collective financial penalty ever imposed on the black population of the US
She who laughs last....

Today, the SBA referred 562,000 borrowers to @USTreasury for collection on $22.2 BILLION in potentially fraudulent pandemic-era loans, marking the LARGEST debt referral in SBA history. The action ends a yearslong de facto amnesty scheme by the Biden SBA, which refused to refer the portfolio to either Treasury or DOJ, even though the loans were both delinquent and internally flagged for suspected fraud. Under the protection of the Biden Administration, none of the borrowers were compelled to repay their debts and fewer than 1,000 faced any inquiry from law enforcement until today. This historic referral would not have been possible without the strong support of the White House Anti-Fraud Task Force. SBA is deeply grateful for the leadership of @VP, @AFergusonFTC, and the partnership of both Treasury and DOJ - which now has the files for review. At the SBA, we will continue working to claw back every dollar of PPP and COVID EIDL funding owed to American taxpayers. And we will work in lockstep with the Task Force to bring accountability to every criminal who defrauded America’s small businesses. foxbusiness.com/fox-news-polit…

Meet Connie, an Ohio pre-K teacher who appears deeply disappointed that the assassination attempt on President Trump failed.
Teachers who hold such extreme and violent views have no place in our classrooms. Parents and school administrators deserve to know who’s shaping young minds.

Cassidy Muñoz had been a ranger at Jedediah Smith for eleven years and thought shed seen everything. Then a hiker reported hearing a phone ring deep in Stout Grove. She followed the sound to a hollowed-out coastal redwood and found a fully operational payphone mounted inside the trunk. Dial tone. Working coin slot.
Seventeen dollars in quarters sitting in the return tray. Pacific Bell had no record of the line. A technician traced the cable underground for a quarter mile to an abandoned maintenance shed.
Someone had been making calls from inside that tree since at least 2014. They still don't know who.
