@MAGAVoice @CombatingAutism Thank you for your persistence and courage @ScottPresler! Please keep pushing!! I love your efforts and support you 100%!

BREAKING: Scott Presler just Posted this Video in front of John Thunes office: “Time to play hardball” John Thune wants everybody to forget about the Save America Act… he’s actually counting on it TIME TO GET LOUD MAGA

Employment reality is poor. I believe what will happen is that we’ll see T will quietly influence the current trajectory to help US Workers and loudly announce sweeping changes in legal immigration. In addition he needs corporate entities to increase wages more rapidly than a natural pace. Change has to be coming on all these fronts or people will start to organize more effectively. D’s are now likely unable to Win midterms with proper map boundaries being reestablished - so that threat is mitigated, but the risk of a new political party and new workers unions remain. Samsung is about to find out exactly how expensive it is to ignore the needs of your workforce. More people will follow their example.

Spot on. Consumer fear is spiking to recession-echo levels, even as official stats have held up better so far. The gap between what people feel on the ground and the headline numbers keeps widening — classic late-cycle vibe. Either sentiment catches down to reality, or reality catches up. Which way do you see it breaking?

Americans are very worried about their jobs: The perceived probability among US consumers that the unemployment rate will be higher in 1-year increased +0.4 percentage points in April, to 43.9%, the highest in 12 months. Excluding April 2025, this is the highest reading since the 2020 pandemic spike, according to the NY Fed. Since the start of 2025, this percentage has risen +10 points. Meanwhile, 61% of consumers expect unemployment to increase over the next 12 months, according to the University of Michigan Surveys of Consumers. By comparison, only 14% of respondents expected unemployment to rise in 2021. This level of pessimism has never happened outside of a recession. Job market expectations are at recession-like levels.

@JoshuaLisec Write first, then AI edits?

AI can save you time. But AI writing can cost you trust. I have the third way.

I want to see manufacturing boom in America and the best way I know how to do that is support American mills and factories.

@JoshPhillipsPhD I love these. Never even knew they existed before my kids were reading. Great investment!

We didn’t have a lot of money growing up. But my parents always let us buy books There was a bin (not a shelf) at our local Walmart full of the Great Illustrated Classics books. Just a giant pile. In all, we probably had 70 books from this series *My brother got all of them 🙄

Another good day is starting! Lord, please bless this Earthly land and Your Children all over this gorgeous planet. Help us to seek Your Way of righteousness, justice and equity. Protect us with Your strong arms. Amen!

reminds me of the story about Marshal Lyautey while he was walking through his flourishing garden/estate one day, looking over the many great trees that had been planted there from around the world. He turned to his head gardener and said, “I see no copper beech tree.” the gardener replied something to the effect of: “But Marshal, it takes over 100–150 years for a copper beech tree to reach full maturity, you’ll never live to see it grown.” Lyautey’s immediate response was: “Then we have no time to waste, we must plant it today.”

@LewisHowes Sense of humor.

What’s the biggest green flag in a partner?

@danmartell @MindTendencies2 This is pretty aggressive. So…what is the company doing to ensure this success is achievable? Or is this a pure “grind harder” work environment? That’s an environment that loses long term.

When you hire someone, define what success looks like by day 14. Follower growth. Revenue target. Name the outcome. If they don't hit it, they're not your person. That's a standard. Not cruelty.

@NYakutilov @pmddomingos Ha! This has been me a couple of times. I loved Lumosity but paid a couple of years that I didn’t do much on it.

@pmddomingos You mean get a subscription and never use it?

In the AI future people will work on their cognitive fitness like they work on their physical fitness today.

@justinskycak Oh. I see this a lot in “tenured leaders”. Good warning.

The most common failure mode of stereotypically smart people is jumping straight to abstraction/automation without really understanding what the hell they're abstracting/automating.

@Jayyanginspires Alright, I’ll say it. This still does not solve the problem of no shoes. It’s still ok to feel bad about not having them. Someone who is worse off - we can feel that, but it’s still ok to feel our own lack acutely as well. This proverb is promoting toxic positivity.

"I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet." – Persian proverb

@RecolonizeM @realBrandonGill @realDailyWire Incompetence or…in on it and getting a cut? I almost hope it’s the latter, otherwise we’re really giving away too too much.

@realBrandonGill @realDailyWire Our Government system is incompetent beyond belief. It’s those paying these fraudulent claims that I blame the most. How on earth are there no checks and balances in place on these systems. Just mind boggling incompetence.

Everyone in America needs to read this story. Our taxpayers are being robbed blind by foreigners who have no business being here in the first place. The Somali scammers have abused their welcome and all need to go back. dailywire.com/news/medicaid-…

And men have been heroic and used their power to benefit the greater good? Let’s chat with the young women in Afghanistan who aren’t allowed to go to school anymore and see if they have a take on this. In majority both sexes have been harmed and benefited through the centuries. There’s not one way to live.

"All I want is a job until I retire in a couple of years." That is what the candidate said with total honesty. I thought 'oh wow.' That is a first. The younger engineers in the room were obviously feeling uncomfortable with this. I wonder how many of them at that second realized that was them in 30 years? In our organization we all decide on whom to hire...the section manager filtered them then we choose. Why do you want to work here was the question. None of that - I love the mission, I saw on the site your company does this or that... just I need a job until I retire. We were ramping a new 300mm fab and needed to backfill the roles in the 200mm fab. We were looking for reliable folks to take up our old processes while we ported the new ones. Bob and Jose were among about 20 applicants that we decided looked equivalent on paper and we decided to interview each of them. We had one of those impossible puzzle questions - how many balls in how many bags to maximize number of bags without having the same number in each bag. We had someone asking social questions and I was the technical dude. So I am asking the plasma, chemistry, etc. questions. Being super analytical I had a spreadsheet and rating system for 9 skills necessary to do the job. You could max out with 81 points and I had a definition for each score. Bob was hitting it out of the park. When it came to the critical thinking problem he showed us how you could empirically solve it and gave an actual equation for it. He said I am not going to do it but that should be proof that I can without wasting any time. I loved it. Bob was tearing it up. Bob came from Florida. I did not even know they had fabs in Florida. They closed his fab. He was running close to the same process. He got through the first 5 questions with a 9 score. Then we got to question 6 that had to do with a way of executing a selective process that required non-elementary integrals and differential equations. To be fair I was not asking him to solve it, just set it up. But he froze. Finally he said yeah, I usually hand that off to Jose. I said Jose? He said yeah Jose. He is interviewing too. He was also at the plant in Florida and he knows this stuff so for the last 20+ years Jose did that. We continued on. Bob nailed the rest. I could not give him a single point for that question though. Serious gap. Then Jose came in. 2nd gen Cuban, you could argue third gen if you got to know his story. Old school and older dude like Bob. When we asked him why he was applying here? Jose said Bob. Bob is my best friend. I could easily retire but Bob and his family have been a part of my life forever. Jose knew the processes- said he and Bob managed to keep their systems running for decades at the old plant under circumstances that would scare most or take a line down. We hired both of them. We even paid them a little more, certainly not as much as they made where they were before but we realized downtime can cost millions. It was an excellent investment for the organization. They were absolute ghosts. Heads down, zero drama, tools always in control, uptime rock solid. They loved the company and their coworkers respected them. They helped the younger engineers without making a show of it. Recommended engineers for advancement even. Bob even stayed past retirement when we eventually closed that line. Best decision ever. 100% true story

This is really well said and matches reality much better than the people who talk about grinding and business “families”. Don’t fall for that bs. Work on what has impact and remember that most colleagues won’t call you later, even when they really do care.

More of this please.

Remember, God is the Shepherd of the stars, and He’s numbered and called them by name. I think about that when I’m flying in the middle of the night over the oceans, in a dark cockpit, and I look up. 🙏✝️❤️
