Excellent!

Dans le manifeste "techno-optimiste" de Marc Andreessen, il y a une phrase qui m'a marqué : "Our enemies are not bad people – but rather bad ideas." Nos ennemis ne sont pas des mauvaises personnes. Ce sont des mauvaises idées. Prenons Jancovici. L'homme est brillant, sincère, travailleur. Il ne se lève pas le matin en se disant qu'il va nuire à l'humanité. Mais l'idée qu'il porte la décroissance, le rationnement, la frugalité érigée en horizon civilisationnel est une idée profondément destructrice. Elle prend des esprits brillants et les transforme en commissaires politiques d'un futur appauvri. Et le plus fascinant, c'est ce que cette idée fait aux gens qui l'adoptent. Dans mon entourage, une grosse partie de mes amis est sur cette ligne décroissantiste, avec tout le package qui va avec. L'argent c'est mal mais ils en veulent. Il faut moins prendre l'avion mais ils rêvent de voyager partout. Il faut consommer moins mais ils ne renoncent à rien de ce qu'ils aiment vraiment. Et tous ont un point commun : ils sont déprimés. L'un d'eux m'a même confié qu'il était sous antidépresseurs. Ce n'est pas un hasard. C'est mécanique. Quand tu crois que ton désir de vivre, de créer, de t'élever est moralement suspect tu te détruis de l'intérieur. Tu passes ta vie à t'excuser d'exister. Tu vis dans la dissonance permanente entre ce que ton corps veut (plus, mieux, plus loin) et ce que ton idéologie t'ordonne (moins, sobre, immobile). D'où ma théorie : Quand on pense quelque chose de fondamentalement faux décroissance, communisme, extrémisme religieux (de tout ordre) ce n'est qu'une question de temps avant que ça devienne vraiment destructeur. D'abord pour soi. Puis pour les autres. Les mauvaises idées tuent. Lentement chez ceux qui y croient, brutalement chez ceux qui les subissent. C'est pour ça que la bataille des idées n'est pas un luxe d'intellectuel. C'est la bataille la plus importante de notre époque.

Unbelievable. How to explain this betrayal?
Brooke Gossett@luvgod

Dear Senator Hawley, You have betrayed us…… We thought for sure you were going to help us drain the swamp and carry out the mandates we brought forth when electing Trump. On Memorial Day 2026, while the rest of America paused to honor the fallen who died defending our freedoms, you chose to gavel in a meaningless pro forma Senate session and then gavel it right back out. A 30 second ritual that accomplished exactly nothing except one thing: deliberately blocking President Trump from making a single recess appointment. You personally stood in the way of the American people’s mandate. We voted. We won. We gave President Trump the White House, we gave Republicans the Senate, and we sent a clear message……drain the swamp, confirm the loyalists, and move at warp speed to repair what the last four years destroyed. Instead, you and the rest of the Senate club decided the dusty old rulebook matters more than the will of the voters who handed you the majority. By keeping the Senate “technically in session” through sham pro forma meetings, you stripped the President of a constitutional tool specifically designed to bypass obstruction like this. Do you understand what that means, Senator? It means qualified America First nominees, judges, ambassadors, agency heads, and military leaders remain stuck in limbo while the same entrenched bureaucrats who sabotaged Trump the first time continue holding power. It means the deep state gets more time to resist, delay, leak, obstruct, and laugh at the voters who believed change was finally coming. It means Americans are once again being told their landslide victory was meaningless because the Senate has “traditions.” You ran on fighting the swamp. You wrote books about it. You raised your fist outside the Capitol with the rest of us. Now you’re the one holding the gavel that keeps the swamp alive. We are not disappointed, Senator Hawley. We are furious. You didn’t have to take that presiding slot. You didn’t have to participate in the ritual protecting the establishment from the very change Americans demanded. But you did. Every day those positions remain unfilled is another day the agenda Americans voted for is delayed. This is not “procedure.” This is betrayal dressed up in a suit and tie. The swamp does not drain itself. It requires leaders willing to confront a broken system instead of protecting it under the banner of “tradition.” Right now, you are choosing the institution over the people who elected you. We expected better from you. We still want to believe you are not just another suit who talks tough on Fox News and then folds the moment Senate leadership whispers “tradition.” Prove us wrong. Demand these pro forma charades end immediately. Demand recess appointments be allowed so President Trump can govern at the speed this moment requires. Stand in that chamber and publicly call out the hypocrisy. Because if you don’t, the answer to the question “What did Josh Hawley do on Memorial Day 2026?” will be simple: He helped keep the swamp alive. We’re watching. We’re angry. And we will remember. Sincerely, We the Disappointed, Disgusted, and Determined Trump Voters The American Majority You Were Elected to Serve

🚨 REP. TIM BURCHETT JUST STORMED OUT OF COMMITTEE IN FURY! RIGHTFULLY SO! “A backroom deal was cut to let Democrats control what we do!” The RINOs are selling out behind closed doors again, handing power back to the same Democrats the American people just crushed. @timburchett is one of the few with the spine to call it out and walk! No more secret deals. No more caving. No more weak leadership.

Stephen Miller: “At the beginning of this administration, we asked every state, red and blue, to share with us their voter rolls so we could scrub it against the DHS file of illegal aliens to remove illegal aliens from their voter rolls. Every blue state refused. California refused. Minnesota refused. New York refused. In fact, they sued us to stop us from removing illegal aliens from the voter rolls, removing non-citizens from the voter rolls. But that’s not the only thing. They don’t even want to get dead people off the rolls. They don’t want to get felons off the rolls. They don’t want to get out-of-state voters off the rolls. They don’t want to get double and triple voters out of the count. Because they want the fraud. This is the most important issue, Sean, because the Biden administration brought 20 million illegal aliens into this country and this is the way, the only way, to keep them from participating in our sacred democratic process.”

When the government does anything, its extortion hence totally illogical. With this example, yet another reminder that we need to keep government as small as possible. Just say no!

Incredible new article on Austin's light rail project from @_AustinCurrent Many good moments, but my favorite: The new ridership estimates are so bad and the costs so high we could buy every rider an Aston Martin instead 😂 austincurrent.org/2026/05/21/aus…

Elon Musk on why the Model S and Model X succeeded: “Those cars were designed with love. Every part of it, inside and outside, even things people couldn’t see - we put there because we love the product” “It’s at the heart of any great product. If the people making it genuinely love that product… it’s not a spreadsheet thing. You do things to make the product amazing because you love it Even if people don’t see all of those things, they feel a lot of those things. And that’s what translates to people wanting the product”

These two giant tortoises have been fighting each other for over 120 years. According to the zoo, one tortoise stole the other’s food 120 years ago, and from that day on they became enemies. There hasn’t been a single day where they haven’t fought for a while
