@sappholives83 @grok is this true ?

French courts have allowed a Muslim migrant to go free after the brutal murder of Sarah Halimi,his 65 year old Jewish neighbor. Halimi, a retired doctor, teacher, and widowed mother of 3, was beaten to death on 4 April 2017. For more than an hour, her screams echoed around her apartment building, while her murderer alternated between shrieking “Allahu Akbar!” and howling verses from the Quran. He then threw her lifeless body from a third story window. The French courts have ruled that this man cannot be held criminally responsible for his brutal act because he’d smoked marijuana before beating Sarah to death. I don’t speak French, so I can’t say how long it took neighbors to call 911. I don’t know why the beating was allowed to reach its fatal conclusion with what appears to have been no attempt at any kind of meaningful intervention by French police. The suspect was unarmed and outnumbered, and trapped in the victim’s apartment, but he was permitted to go on beating her for an hour. I have almost 20 years’ experience in law enforcement. I cannot explain why. I don’t want to think that Sarah’s Judaism played a part in the length of the torture she was allowed to endure, or in the lackadaisical response by French police. I don’t want to think that French courts simply don’t care about dead Jews, or that Europe as a whole has given up all attempts at enforcing the law within the Muslim migrant community. I don’t want to - but what other conclusion is there to draw?

This can't be real....

@MrTimDougherty @DanCALmatters Always has been.....

@DanCALmatters The minimum wage is still zero.

How about this. Gavin Newsom just Vetoes a bill to find out where Billions went. 20 Billion, he just doesn’t want to be held accountable because he is so Corrupt!

It’s now been three years since Gavin Newsom announced he was spending $750 million taxpayer dollars on 1,200 tiny homes for the homeless. “And so what we are doing is we're deploying these 1,200-plus units. You can see these units are not just in every case for one individual, multiple individuals in these units. We're hoping to get them constructed within a matter of months and not years. I wanted to say the summer, but my staff said the press will attack us if we fall short, so they're saying the fall." - Gavin Newsom, March 2023 I hope you’re sitting down, but Gavin Newsom hasn’t delivered on a single tiny home. But I’m sure taxpayers got their $750 million back, right?

Today, in Iran, in the middle of a war, the regime executed a 19-year-old national wrestling champion for the crime of joining January protests. 💔 After signaling to the world, including President @realDonaldTrump, that they would halt executions of protesters, the regime has done the exact opposite. Three young protesters, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, were hanged in Qom after a sham trial. Reports indicate torture. Forced confessions. No access to chosen lawyers. Closed-door proceedings. No right to appeal. I call on @GlobalAthleteHQ to stand with Iranian athletes who are being silenced, imprisoned, and executed simply for raising their voices. This is not just about sports. This is about human dignity.

@derekvest Burger King strategy eas to copy McDonald's and place one close by wherever McDonald's did. Sorta worked

@bp22 Because Blue Origin has launched about 38 to SpaceX >633?

I'm begining to think Nlue Origin is Burger King to SpaceX's McDonald's

In other predictable results you should have wagered on for size.......

@SeanHoy27 It be nice but it's not reality and I don't think it will be for the next 1000 to 10000 years but who knows AI could be an infection point for the essence of what a human is via genetic engineering.....

@bp22 Sometimes I wish humans werent so flawed at scale... we are so much better than what the world shows

It's quite impressive the amount of money spent with no measurable net positive effect.....

@shawn_karmil They left operating on need long ago. You need to ask what do they want. I wirte a book that basically says they don't know. But don't worry just be patient they die and pay the highest fed tax rate possible.

@bp22 Even after those taxes are paid, I'd bet my house that over those 20 years that 1% has seen their net worth continue to accelerate at rates the remaining 99% could only dream of. We are already at or above Gilded Age levels of wealth inequality. How much more does the 1% need?

California is unusually dependent on high-income taxpayers. The top 1% of earners have paid roughly 45% of California personal income tax on average over the last 20 years, but that is not the same as 47% of all California tax revenue, and it definitely is not just 200 billionaires. It's a significant percent but I'd guess 10 percent of the total tax revenue

A real life atlas shrugged experiment is running in the USA. The only question is "Who Is John Galt?"

@SeanHoy27 I get War, I don't get ICE. Caotikism is the thing that lifted humanity out of abject poverty , no system is perfect but it's the best one we have.

@bp22 Now do this with the war and ICE.. im not saying everyone should be employable.. but maybe, just maybe, free market capitalism is bad, and real social safety nets are a thing needed in a non-sociopathic society.. a small % of ppl work to thrive; most work to not be homeless

@WallStreetMav @grok is this accurate or even close ?

“California has 40 million people in it… if you take away 200 guys, the billionaires, if you take them out of the equation, we lose 47 % of our revenue. Many of those billionaires have moved already or are in the process of moving. 47% of California tax revenue… gone.

Glad to have provided my thoughts for this piece in WSJ that looks into the reality of the Earth observation market. As I say in the piece, "2025 was the year the industry stopped pretending" - EO companies pitched climate and commercial applications to raise capital, but defense is where the money actually is. The question is whether serving defense customers now prevents commercial scale later. History says it will.

Interesting.....

🚨 Breaking Cancer News Imagine this: doctors inject one tumor, and suddenly the body’s immune system starts attacking cancer everywhere. Not just the tumor that got the shot, all tumors in the body. Sounds like science fiction… but early trials suggest it’s real. A redesigned CD40 immunotherapy is being tested. Instead of giving the drug through the bloodstream (which caused severe side effects before), scientists inject it directly into a single tumor. That tumor acts as a training ground for the immune system. Immune cells learn to recognize the cancer and then hunt down other tumors throughout the body. In a small trial of 12 patients with metastatic cancers, six saw their tumors shrink, and two experienced complete disappearance of all detectable cancer. Minimal side effects were reported. One injection, whole-body response — a possible game-changer for cancer treatment. Source: ScienceDaily. (2026, March 15). Inject one tumor, immune system attacks all: Early trial shows promise for redesigned cancer therapy.
