🚨 BREAKING: Secretary Pete Hegseth just announced the Department of War is CUTTING TIES with woke leftist Ivy League universities DoW will NO LONGER be subsidizing Yale, Columbia, Brown, MIT, Princeton, and others. “We’re DONE paying for the privilege of our enemies' wicked ideologies to be taught to our future leaders.

Behind every military man is a woman who’s stronger. It’s a team. I know.

I took some time to write at blog•rchase•com about my journey as an investor. I went from no-investing, to day trading, to 401K'ing, to losing $108K in a scam, to real estate, to index funds... And now I don't do any of that, all I own is 4 stocks that I plan to hold 5+ years. I'll never own more than 5 stocks at a time. Very undiversified. $MCW went private today at $7/share, I bought it at $5.41 5 months ago so +30%. The stocks I bought were all at really big lows with big risks ahead for the businesses... at least that was or is the market consensus. But after I did a lot of study for each, listened to every founder/CEO interview I could find, tried to understand the financials, and trusting in my own experience with their products, I decided I disagreed with the investor consensus, so I placed big bets. My framework for picking the stocks: • Founder/CEO has meaningful ownership, competent management of the business • Business model is easy to understand - they make a product or provide a service • Stock is down a lot due to investor fears that I believe are overblown, multiple is fair value • I personally use the products and love the brand • Low perceived downside, the stock is resting at a low point that has been maintained for long periods of time in the past • I bet big otherwise it's not worth my time

Watching Tammy Duckworth obsessively interrupt Marco Rubio during this hearing is like watching Forest Gump argue with Isaac Newton.

130 schools said no. He led the losingest program in college football history to a national championship anyway. Fernando Mendoza was a 2-star recruit from Miami. He tried to walk on at his hometown school. They passed. So did FIU. So did FAU. So did everyone else. At 17, he was sitting in his bedroom, crying over a silent recruiting inbox—after driving to 18 camps with his dad and sending highlights to more than 100 programs. Not one FBS offer. His only option? Yale. No scholarship. No NFL path. Everyone told him to be “realistic.” “Know your place.” “Be grateful.” He didn’t listen. Because Mendoza understood something most people miss: The worst outcome isn’t failing. It’s never getting the chance to try. Two weeks before signing day in 2022, his phone rang. Cal needed a body. One offer. Out of 134 schools. He took it. He arrived as the third-string quarterback. Spent a year on the scout team. Lost his first four starts. Got sacked 41 times behind a broken offensive line. Still got up. Every time. Then Cal brought in a transfer instead of building around him. So Mendoza left the only school that had ever said yes. He transferred to Indiana—the losingest program in college football history. People laughed. “Career suicide.” “Graveyard program.” “Nobody wins there.” One coach told him something different: “I’m going to make you the best Fernando Mendoza possible.” That was enough. Mendoza wasn’t just playing for football. His mother has battled multiple sclerosis for 18 years. Before every snap, he thought of her. “My mother is my why.” Indiana went 16–0. Beat six Top-10 teams. Won their first Big Ten title since 1945. Mendoza threw 41 touchdowns. Won the Heisman—first in school history. First Cuban-American to ever do it. Then came the title game. Miami. Near his hometown. Fourth-and-4. Season on the line. Quarterback draw. The kid 134 schools rejected spun through defenders and dove into the end zone. Game over. Indiana—national champions. The losingest program became the best team in America. All because a 17-year-old refused to believe “no” was the end. Rankings don’t decide your ceiling. Gatekeepers don’t write your ending. Being overlooked isn’t a verdict—it’s a starting point. Sometimes all you need is one shot… and the courage to bet on yourself when nobody else will. Don’t quit. Credit: Barclay Mullins
