If capitalism truly rewarded skill or intelligence, the richest people would be neurosurgeons, engineers, and scientists. If it rewarded talent, it would be artists, writers, and creators. If it rewarded hard work, it would be cleaners, laborers, and service workers. But it’s none of them.

🇺🇸 Trump dropped in Truth Social the results of a 2024 IZA Netherlands study showing immigrant fiscal impact varies wildly by country of origin. North American immigrants: +$573k lifetime net contribution. Somalia-origin immigrants: -$1.1 million. That's a $1.6 trillion swing depending on who you let in. Every country gets to choose its immigration policy. The data just makes clear that "more immigration" and "better immigration" are two very different conversations.

It turns out that work requirements for able-bodied Americans and stronger protections against illegals bilking the system do, in fact, work. The Trump Administration is protecting these benefits for Americans truly in need.

NEWS: Tesla Model 3 driver walks away unharmed after a Dodge Ram pickup landed on top of the car in a three-vehicle crash in Washington. The crash happened on May 1 at about 6:01 p.m. at the intersection of Northeast 99th Street and Northeast 130th Avenue in Orchards, Washington. Clark County deputies and Vancouver Fire Engine 11 arrived within three minutes of the 911 calls. When they got to the scene, deputies found a black Dodge Ram pickup resting on top of a gray Tesla Model 3 sedan, with a white Ford Econoline van blocking the westbound lane about 60 feet away. Investigators say the Dodge Ram ran a red light heading west on Northeast 99th Street, smashing into the driver's side of the Ford Econoline that had a green light. The pickup then slid sideways into the eastbound lane and crashed into the Tesla Model 3, which was stopped at the light. The Dodge Ram driver showed signs of impairment, and a DUI investigation followed. The Ford van driver was hurt and taken to a nearby hospital. The Tesla driver walked away with no physical injuries. The Traffic Homicide Unit was called in and the road was shut for about five hours during the investigation. Detectives are now asking for help from anyone who saw the Dodge Ram driving before the crash.

She's wearing shirt about "kindness" as she does this. You can't make it up.

ITALY IS DYING — AND THE NUMBERS ARE BRUTAL Italy just recorded its lowest number of births since 1861. Only 355,000 babies were born in 2025, while deaths reached 652,000 — a net loss of nearly 300,000 people in a single year. The total fertility rate has collapsed to 1.14 children per woman, far below the 2.1 needed to sustain a population. This isn’t a temporary dip. It’s a long-term demographic collapse that threatens Italy’s entire future: shrinking workforce, collapsing pensions, aging society, and disappearing regions. Without massive immigration, Italy’s population would be shrinking even faster. This is what happens when birth rates stay critically low for decades. Italy is the clearest warning sign for many other developed nations heading in the same direction.

A must watch!

My thoughts on the security at the WHCD last night. The first exterior security for me was on the street outside of the hotel. I flashed my ticket and was waved through in one second. My name was not checked against any list, I showed no ID, I was not patted down and did not go through a metal detector. I probably could have shown a ticket from a prior year or a fake one as they barely looked at it. (I don't know who that exterior security was, they were guys in suits). From that point, I walked into the hotel with no further security check, and I walked down to the Fox pre-party where there were multiple ballrooms that were absolutely PACKED with attendees. Still did not go through any security at that point. Hypothetically, If I had hidden an explosive in my shoe or my jacket, I would have had no problem getting into one of those ballrooms. Only once it was time to get into the main ballroom for the dinner did we pass through magnetometers, empty our pockets, and get a pat down. And even that checkpoint was just outside of the dinner room. Two things can be true at the same time. Secret Service reacted quickly to an active armed threat and prevented that threat from getting into the ballroom. But the security leading up to that point, in my opinion, appeared to be lacking severely.

If they’re willing to die to assassinate, imagine what they will do if they gain political power
