@fedegarcias @javierHazan Lo pongo de otra manera. En todas las dependencias del estado, todas, hay gastos al pedo. Los encontras, los vas eliminando a media que sea posible y luego bajas tarifas, aranceles e impuestos. Falta querer nada más, ni nada menos.

@Mencha1988 @javierHazan decir eso es no decir nada, justamente, es a esto a lo que me refiero.

Me gustan los economistas que ahora descubren que Uruguay no crece. Cinco años sin crecer. Hasta el 2005 tampoco pasaba nada pero ahora de golpe son todos especialistas en crecimiento. Pongan una idea que no sea subir el tipo de cambio.

@javierHazan @fedegarcias Bajar gasto, aranceles e impuestos.

Yeah you can’t be The Supreme Governor of the Church of England if you aren’t a member other Church of England. They don’t let Protestants become the Pope either

It’s strange how Muslims always get increasingly scared as their burning and bombings increase. If their sense of responsibility would increase too, that would be great.

Una familia judía acogió en su seno a un niño de 7 años. Experimentó la bondad por primera vez. Le compraron su primera trompeta. Le influenciaban las melodías judías. Hablaba yiddish. Y llevó una estrella de David hasta el final de su vida. Ese niño pequeño era Louie Armstrong.

Credit where it's due: Tucker is amazing at confidently delivering absolute lies. Here he is claiming that Churchill locked up members of the opposition party during WW2. When, in fact, Churchill led a National Government, i.e. one that INCLUDED leaders of the opposition parties in prominent roles. Labour leader Clement Atlee was appointed Churchill's Deputy and other leading Labour and Liberal politicians held major roles in the cabinet. The person Tucker is talking about is Oswald Mosley who was the leader of the British Union of Fascists and was not elected to anything. He wanted Britain to become a fascist country and work with Hitler. Despite this, contrary to Tucker's claims, he was not even detained for the full duration of the war and was released in 1943, two years before it ended. In most other countries he would have been hanged for treason without a second thought the day the war started. Britain's treatment of this tiny group of fascists, i.e. enemy sympathisers and collaborators, during WW2 is an example of extraordinary restraint and respect for the sanctity of human life and freedom that was not only unparalleled in the world at that time but arguably remains rare and hugely admirable even by the standards of today across most of the world. In short, Tucker is completely wrong and we can only conclude that the spreading of these malicious lies is motivated not only by his ignorance of history but also by the fact that he will say ANYTHING he deems necessary to suit his political agenda. His opposition to the current war in Iran, about which I myself have expressed some skepticism, does not justify this behaviour and is, in fact, undermined by it - no right- thinking person can take him seriously after this.

He also wrote and signed the death penalty of 40,000 Iranians that demonstrated in the streets of Iran. It’s beyond my comprehension how Australia is not deporting this terrorists supporter back to Syria.

🚨To every Black person tempted by the antisemitic wave sweeping right now:🚨 Back when white mobs lynched us in the streets... When we had no money, no power, and literally no movement... Who stood with us? Who risked everything? The Jews. They weren't just allies—they were family in the fight. - Jewish leaders co-founded the NAACP in 1909 and funded/led it for generations when no one else would. - When Dr. King and our people were arrested, beaten, jailed—Jewish lawyers defended us for free, and Jewish money paid bail bonds and court fees while others turned away. - In Freedom Summer '64, half the white volunteers risking death to register Black voters? Jewish. - Rabbi Heschel marched arm-in-arm with MLK in Selma—our struggles linked forever. Without their blood, treasure, solidarity, and courage—there is no Civil Rights Movement as we know it. No Voting Rights Act. No dream realized. That's why I stand with the Jews. They were our only true friends when this country hated us—when doors slammed shut and ropes hung high. They showed up, bled, and built with us. So to my people joining this demonic, divisive hate today: Pause. Remember. Honor the alliance that freed us. Our histories are bound. Our freedoms were won together. Betray that, and you betray the very martyrs who died for our rights. Black-Jewish unity forged the dream. Don't let hate destroy it. I stand with my Jewish brothers and sisters—always. ✊🏾🤝✡️🇮🇱 Repost if truth > trends. If gratitude > division. If history matters. #BlackJewishAlliance #RememberOurAllies #StandTogether #CivilRightsTruth #NoToAntisemitism

The Real Reason Why Europe Won't Fight: It's Not About the War When the EU's foreign policy chief declared that the conflict in the Middle East was not Europe's war, she was not making a strategic assessment. She was making a domestic one. The Strait of Hormuz carries a fifth of the world's energy supplies. Daily Gulf oil exports have collapsed by sixty per cent in a fortnight. Germany is facing an energy price shock. Rachel Reeves is watching her fiscal headroom evaporate in real time. France is warning of inflation. These are not countries for whom Middle Eastern stability is an abstract concern. They are countries whose economies depend on that shipping lane remaining open. The idea that protecting it is not their war is not a foreign policy position. It is a fiction maintained for a domestic audience. The domestic audience in question is not hard to identify. Every government that has refused Trump's request shares the same political constraint. Germany has over five million residents of Muslim background. France has the largest Muslim population in Western Europe. Britain has communities whose political representatives spent the past fortnight marching under Khamenei's portrait toward Downing Street. The calculation being made in London, Berlin and Brussels is not about international law or strategic prudence. It is about which communities those governments cannot afford to antagonise and what those communities might do if they felt their governments had taken the wrong side. Not our war means not on our streets. The foreign policy is being written by the demographics. Trump named it with characteristic bluntness. "Britain used to be the Rolls-Royce of allies", he said. Then he described his phone call with Starmer, in which the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom told the President of the United States that he needed to consult his team before deciding whether to send minesweepers. Minesweepers. Not troops. Not bombers. Not a declaration of war. Minesweepers to keep open a shipping lane that Britain's own economy depends on. Trump's response was precise: you don't need to meet with your team. You're the Prime Minister. You can make up your own mind. That exchange tells you everything about the state of British leadership that a thousand opinion columns cannot. The humanitarian statement on Lebanon follows the same logic. Britain, Canada, France, Germany and Italy issued a joint warning to Israel about its ground operations against Hezbollah, the Iranian proxy that has spent decades arming itself to destroy the Jewish state and that attacked Israel the moment Khamenei was killed. The statement called for immediate de-escalation. It described the humanitarian situation as deeply alarming. It said a significant ground offensive must be averted. Not one word about the organisation that started the war, built the tunnels, fired the rockets and continues to operate with Iranian funding and Iranian weapons. The language of humanitarianism is being applied selectively, and the selection follows the same demographic logic as everything else. This is the pattern that has defined the Western European response to this entire crisis. Not principle. Not strategy. Not law. A set of Left-wing governments that have spent twenty-five years building electoral coalitions that now constrain their ability to act in their own national interest. They cannot send ships because of who lives in their cities. They cannot back Israel because of who votes in their constituencies. They cannot name Hezbollah as the aggressor because of who marches in their streets. The Strait of Hormuz is closing and the Rolls-Royce of allies needs to consult its team. This is what the long march through the institutions has produced. Not our war. Just our problem. "Trump's response was precise: you don't need to meet with your team. You're the Prime Minister. You can make up your own mind."

Anna Komnene, daughter of Alexios Komnenos, wrote a history of her father called the Alexiad in the 12th century. She was the 1st European female historian EVER: “And at dawn on a Sunday a female child was born to them who was exactly like her father, they said; that child was I”

See that destroyed building in Tehran? FARAJA, Iran's morality police headquarters. Mahsa Amini was killed there. I was taken there for showing HAIR. The terror, the humiliation, unforgettable. Millions of Iranian women know this fear. Now it's rubble. Not destruction. Justice.
