Power Pete (aka Calzone) 🇮🇹🇺🇸🤌🏼

This is why I donate monthly!

@IvoryHecker It’s an April Fools joke

The Houston suburbs will soon have a mega statue of Trump! Would you like to drive past this statue every day or no?

@E247J @JJCarrell14 @catturd2 To protect this country.

@PowerPeteB @JJCarrell14 @catturd2 You voted for your son to go to war? Interesting take.

What the FUCK are we doing! My son will NEVER die for a foreign country! I voted for you 3 times, took abuse and fought for you and this is what you do! You do the exact opposite of what you railed against for over a decade!

@JJCarrell14 @catturd2 It’s not an endless war nor will it ever be and I have a kid in the navy about to be deployed! This is what I voted for as did he!

@catturd2 @catturd2, love your account but please tell me why we are fighting another endless war that was supposed to take 48 hours is good for America? Nuclear arms sounds exactly like “WMDs”. This is simply history repeating itself. Again and again and again!

There was once upon a time in which we had a durable grid that was fed by reliable and durable generation, ie Coal until Obama started the war on it! The grid is no longer durable as it cannot handle the intermittent loads of renewables that are trying to replace what we had and it never will IMO reliably.

10/ I understand the frustration. The grid is most complex machine in the world and it's dynamic. We can make the process faster - and we should. But if we carve out exceptions, we undermine the investment signals the grid depends on. The rules have to be durable.

1/ Grid interconnection could be the most misunderstood process in the energy industry. The Three Mile Island restart is a perfect example. 🧵

@PaulSegal12 This is why we need permitting reform ASAP Paul!

7/ And when the study identifies needed upgrades - new equipment, reinforced lines - those have to be engineered, permitted, and built by the local transmission owner. That takes years. The study is just the starting gun.

@catturd2 NATO = so called “family”….

This might be one of my favorite Trump tweets of all time- 😂

@grey4626 NATO = so called “family” ….

Fucking Finally. The Lion of Mar-a-Lago has roared with that signature, unfiltered lethality, and the message slices through the European delusion like a Tomahawk through a command bunker: the age of American subsidy for your parasitic cowardice is fucking over. To the sniveling, jet-fuel-starved cock-suckers of the United Kingdom and its spineless continental cohorts...listen the fuck up. For eighty years we have bled treasure, blood, and industrial supremacy to underwrite your decadent existence. From the Marshall Plan’s reconstruction of your war-ravaged empires to the carrier battle groups that have patrolled the Persian Gulf since the Tanker War of the 1980s, America has been your unpaid mercenary, your nuclear umbrella, your global logistics backbone. NATO? Nothing more than the North American Tribute Organization...where the United States shoulders over sixty-five percent of the alliance’s actual spending while your militaries have atrophied into hollow parade-ground husks, underfunded, undermanned, and equipped with yesterday’s gear because you chose cradle-to-grave welfare states and green virtue-signaling over steel and resolve. Geopolitically, the Strait of Hormuz is no academic footnote: it is the jugular vein of the world economy, funneling twenty-one percent of global petroleum liquids...nineteen million barrels a day...through a narrow chokepoint that asymmetric Iranian tactics...mines, anti-ship missiles, speedboat swarms...were designed to threaten precisely because they knew direct confrontation with American naval power was suicide. We and our Israeli partners have done the hard kinetic work...the precision decapitation of their leadership structure. The heavy lifting is finished. Now these same European freeloaders, who lacked the spine to commit forces when it mattered, dare complain about disrupted sea lanes? Decades of Pax Americana have bred in you a terminal strategic infantilism: a learned helplessness wrapped in smug moral superiority. You lecture the world on the “rules-based order” while outsourcing your survival to American sons and daughters. History is merciless on this point...from the Suez Crisis of 1956, when your imperial twilight exposed the limits of European power projection without U.S. backing, to the present. Your elites are psychologically castrated by comfort; your populations softened by entitlement. You forgot that freedom of navigation is not a birthright...it is enforced by gun, steel, and the will to use them. President Trump’s directive is surgical in its venomous precision: Number One, buy the fucking fuel from us...we have plenty. Number Two, grow some long-overdue balls, reconstitute what remains of your navies, sail into the Strait, and TAKE IT. No more American taxpayers dying to keep your fighters in the sky and your economies from freezing in the dark while you backstab and virtue-signal. The parasite has fed on the host long enough. The era of the United States as Europe’s security guard, banker, and scapegoat is closed. Fight for your own oil or learn to live without it. Adapt or wither. The choice is yours, but the protection racket is finished. Grow a fucking spine or don't. We don't give a fuck anymore. 💀🗡️⚖️

🚨 JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon just dropped an UNEXPECTED take on Iran. “It’s much more important that this be successfully completed, than what the market does.” Dimon says the markets are unpredictable right now, but regardless, EVERYONE should be hoping for Trump to succeed in Iran. DIMON: “I think the market...you know, markets are unpredictable and it’s hard for me to tell you exactly what.” “But I think they’re just looking at is there a chance something can go wrong?” “Now we should all hope nothing goes wrong. We should all hope that these bad people are...you know, that we win this thing and clean up straits and that Iran is no longer a threat to anybody.” “The markets will be concerned until it is over.” “But I think it’s VERY important...it’s much MORE important that this be successfully completed than what the market does.” Wall Street’s most powerful CEO just said winning in Iran is more important than the what stock market does in the short term.

@jemelehill You’re a fckn moron!!

I honestly think Jaden Ivy is having some kind of episode. I have known folks who are zealots, but this seems like something more.

And the #NBA wants to know why their viewership is down significantly!!!!! Woke ass mofos!

No Kings explained for people who think they're fighting fascism. You're standing in a crowd on Saturday. You look around and think yeah. No Kings. This is what democracy looks like. Bro. You're holding a sign made by a communist billionaire who lives in Shanghai. You live in a constitutional republic. Elections. Term limits. A free press that spent four years calling the president a fascist without one journalist being arrested. The modern left's definition of fascism: You love your country? Fascist. You want to enforce the border? Racist. You think parents should raise their kids? Bigot. You want to know who's voting in your elections? Jim Crow. Being patriotic is fascism to the modern left. But every country has borders and enforces them. 176 countries require ID to vote. That's the definition of a country. But the Democratic establishment told you otherwise. And you believed them. Congress has a 15% approval rating. 80% of Americans disapprove. 97% of incumbents got re-elected. Chuck Schumer. 46 years. Longer than Stalin. Steny Hoyer. 45 years. Longer than Mao. Mitch McConnell. 42 years. 5x more than Napoleon. Nancy Pelosi. 39 years. Longer than Henry VIII. Maxine Waters. 35 years. Longer than Mussolini. Bernie Sanders. 35 years. Triple Hitler's entire reign. Trump. 5 years and 3 months. Won the popular vote and the electoral vote. But Trump is the king. Okay buddy. You don't hate kings. You hate kings that aren't yours. And Saturday they had you in the streets carrying their water. The Democratic Party installed a president without letting you vote. Biden quit on a Sunday. By Tuesday your queen was crowned. No primary. No debate. No ballot. First time since 1968. Three days before your march every Senate Democrat voted against photo ID to vote. During COVID you carried a vaccine card everywhere like a hall pass from the government just to eat at a restaurant. But getting a birth certificate or waiting two hours at the DMV to prove you're a citizen before you vote? That's oppression. The Democratic Party is pro illegal immigration. Counts non-citizens in the Census. Census determines congressional seats. More non-citizens means more seats means more power. No voter ID means no way to check. That's how you keep power without wearing a crown. Biden built a censorship machine. Pressured Facebook to suppress true information and admitted it in writing. Censored scientists. Censored doctors. Censored JOKES. The Biden White House told Facebook to remove "humor and satire." They literally went after people for making fun of them. UK does it better tho... Everything they censored turned out to be right. They just outsourced the silencing to Silicon Valley. And it doesn't stop at speech. The extreme left justifies taking children from families. Six thousand schools rewrite children's identities without telling parents. And the State has the right to intervene. The Hitler Youth did this. Mao's Red Guards did this. The Soviets built statues of a child who reported his own father. Same playbook. During Covid, your bakery got shut down. Church closed. You couldn't hold your dying mother's hand at the hospital. But thousands packed together during BLM to burn Minneapolis and THAT was essential civic engagement. Obviously. $2 billion in damage. 25 dead. 2,000 cops injured. 20 states burning. VP Kamala promoted a bail fund for the rioters. No investigation. No hearings. January 6. One building. Few hours. 1,000 prosecuted. Two years of televised hearings. Kings decide which violence counts. The left decided. Charlie Kirk spent his life walking onto campuses asking for honest debate. He was assassinated. CSIS terrorism database. 2025 is the first year in 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber right-wing. Yet no one brings this up. 75% of liberal students say preventing a speaker from talking is justified. 27% say violence is acceptable. Liberals who went to Trump rallies: "I never felt unsafe." "The experience changed me." Conservatives who show up on liberal campuses get screamed at, blocked, and assassinated. One side talks. The other side screams. The Party for Socialism and Liberation marched with you Saturday. Their stated purpose in their own words: "Revolution." Not reform. Marxism. The system that killed a hundred million people last century. They had you holding their signs while they said it out loud. 500 groups. $3 billion in revenue. Pre-printed signs. The signs were ready before you were angry. The money leads to Neville Roy Singham. Billionaire in Shanghai. Attends CCP workshops. Funnels millions through shell companies at UPS mailboxes. Three Congressional committees have subpoenaed him as a suspected CCP foreign agent. You thought you were fighting for democracy. You were carrying water for Beijing. "Liberals are leaving the First Amendment behind." Spoken by the ACLU lawyer who defended Nazis in court because it was their constitutional right. Bill Clinton put 100,000 cops on the street. Reformed welfare. Said illegal immigration is wrong to a standing ovation. Told America the era of big government is over. Today his own party would call him a fascist. The 1990s Democrat defended free speech for Nazis. Yours censors doctors for telling the truth. The 1990s Democrat held open primaries. Yours installed a nominee without a vote. The 1990s Democrat trusted parents. Yours takes their children. Historians measure fascism across eight traits. Here's who checks the boxes in 2026: Censorship of political opposition. Democrats. Contempt for democratic process. Democrats. Tolerance of political violence. Democrats. State ideology forced on families. Democrats. Corporate-state fusion. Democrats. Scapegoating and manufactured enemies. Both sides. Cult of personality. Both sides. Ultranationalism. Republicans. Five for the left. One for the right. Two shared. You marched against kings on Saturday. You marched FOR kings. You just didn't know which was which. Stop being gaslit. I hope you understand what's at stake.

Yeah c’mon down but leave your politics up there!! That is why it got so bad in NY and CA…but if they bring they’re people here to TX, they need to get in line and keep the state red otherwise it will turn to shit like the place they left! I did it 25 yrs ago and never looked back!

Dallas-Fort Worth attracted 100 corporate headquarters from 2018 to 2024. More than any metro in America. Now it has three stock exchanges and Apollo is shopping for a second HQ. Dallas is on the shortlist. Here is why: TXSE. NYSE Texas. Nasdaq Texas. All three based in Dallas. NYSE Texas opened last year. Nasdaq Texas launched three weeks ago. The Texas Stock Exchange starts trading this summer. TXSE just became the most well-capitalized exchange the SEC has ever approved. It raised $270 million from BlackRock, Citadel Securities, Charles Schwab, JPMorgan, and Goldman Sachs. That is the headline. Here is what’s happening on the ground. Goldman Sachs is spending $500 million on a new campus near Victory Park. It will hold 5,000 employees and become the firm’s largest office by square footage outside Manhattan. JPMorgan Chase now employs 31,000 people in Texas. That is more than New York. Their Plano campus is adding another 4,000. Bank of America is building a 30-story tower in Uptown overlooking Klyde Warren Park. Opening early 2027. They have 14,000 employees in the metro. And Schwab did not open an office. They moved their headquarters. Five years ago, Charles Schwab left San Francisco for Westlake, Texas. Between 5,000 and 10,000 DFW employees. Today, Apollo Global Management announced it is looking for a second headquarters outside New York. The shortlist: Texas or south Florida. Apollo manages $840 billion in assets. This is not about low taxes. That is part of it. Zero state income tax matters. A 0.75% franchise tax instead of a 7.25% corporate income tax matters. Office rent at $35 a square foot instead of $85 matters. But taxes alone do not explain $270 million in institutional capital backing a brand new stock exchange. What explains it is critical mass. When Goldman builds a campus, their fund administrators follow. Their outside counsel follows. Their prime brokerage counterparties follow. The consultants follow. The accountants follow. The talent follows. Then the next firm looks at the map and sees that half their counterparties sit in Dallas. So they come too. And when they arrive, they bring their own vendors and service providers. Those providers pull in more firms. The cycle compounds. Each new entrant reduces the cost of doing business for every firm that came before it. New York is not going anywhere. Wall Street will always be Wall Street. But the financial sector is no longer a one-city industry. Welcome to Y’all Street

@US_OGA Yup! I’m good!!

Just checking in because we've been busy doing yard work, helping neighbors and watching basketball. No Kings today right? We're still good?

Imagine throwing a “No Kings” protest after your party refused to hold a primary, coronated Kamala without a single vote, sued to keep RFK Jr. off the ballot, and attempted to remove Trump from state ballots only after your illegal lawfare scheme failed. If there was a modern day monarchy in America there would only be one party you could point to. The Democrats.

@JoeConchaTV 🤣🤣🤣

On the road for Cameron’s soccer match near the Jersey Shore and stopped off on the way back to grab some food at the Jon Bon Jovi rest stop. Cameron: “Who’s Jon Bon Jovi? Was he part of the Jonas Brothers?” Actual quote…

Im old enough to remember the MASSIVE protests against how Richard Nixon handled Vietnam, how people flooded the streets, how the media portrayed a country in revolt and then how Nixon won an historic landslide against the left's favorite candidate in the '72 election. I know the situations aren't 100 percent analogous, but if anyone thinks these protests represent mainstream American opinion, I have a bridge the connects Manhattan to Brooklyn to sell you

@KobeissiLetter Well, if they blow up that pipeline, Saudi will be pulled into it who will definitely send in ground troops to help eradicate this evil once and for all!

BREAKING: Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline has officially reached its full capacity of 7 million barrels per day as the Strait of Hormuz remains shut, per Bloomberg. With the Houthis now entering the war, the concern for oil markets is that the Red Sea becomes a new front.

This is common sense business decisions!!! Reinvest dollars that would have been used for intermittent energy resources to develop more consistent and reliable energy resources in the 🇺🇸!!! Finally, adults in the room!! Bravo @TotalEnergies 👏🏽

@TiffMoodNukes @LeadingReport I heard it was due to medication not alcohol

@LeadingReport This makes me sad because this man really needs help with his drinking problem

BREAKING: Tiger Woods mugshot released.
