One of the most atrocious international crimes being committed right now is the US blockade on Cuba. The US government is doing everything it can to strangle Cuba’s economy, especially by ramping up the oil blockade. No electricity, no oil, no fuel. Barely any food. A severe health crisis has erupted. Why is the US doing this? For no reason other than its dislike of the Cuban regime. Cuba poses no threat to the US. There is overwhelming global opposition to the US blockade. UN human rights experts have condemned it as a serious violation of international law. Now, Trump wants to take over Cuba, saying: “I can do anything I want with it.” This is one of the most grotesque crimes of our time.

@elonmusk It’s quite disgusting that these loser politicians are wasting a whole year on this very obvious requirement and are so lazy they can’t even deal with one issue in a timely fashion. If it was a company they would be out of business by now.

Americans were forced to take the COVID vaccine. Illegal Immigrants were not. Americans are exposed to streamlined abortions. Illegal Immigrants don't have abortions. American kids are exposed to LGBTQ propaganda. Illegal Immigrants aren't buying any of it. Americans can't have kids until they're financially secure. Illegal Immigrants just keep having kids. American women have on average 1.62 children. Illegal Immigrants have on average 4-5 children. Americans work two income households to survive. Illegal Immigrants get government money. They tried to kill you with an experimental vaccine. They tried to get you to abort your child. They tried to turn your child gay. They tried to sterilize your child. They tax you to the point to where you must forgo your chance at a nuclear family so you can pay for other people to have families. If you don't think they're trying to replace you, I don't know what to tell you.

Our generation will go down in history as the generation that just handed over everything our ancestors created, built, sacrificed & died for to hostile third world foreign people. The generation that allowed our women & children to be raped, trafficked & butchered & allowed our people to be slaughtered everyday on our streets. All while we did NOTHING. We will be the generation that obediently worked like slaves to fund foreign people, foreign nations & our own destruction. The generation that destroyed Western Civilisation which took thousands of years to build, in only a few decades. That will be our story if there is anyone left to tell it 😔

NYC's annual budget is twice Tokyo's, and Tokyo's quality of life is about 100 times better than NYC. Tokyo has twice the people. NYC's budget is $120b per year, GREECE spends $85 billion per year and they have A FUCKING ARMY AND A NAVY.

The Welfare Voting Paradox We have created a system where 47% of Americans pay ZERO federal income tax, yet they vote on how to spend everyone else's money. When more people vote for benefits than pay for them, is that democracy or legalized plunder? Here is the genuine question nobody wants to answer: If politicians can win elections by promising more welfare to an ever-growing recipient base funded by a shrinking taxpayer base, what stops the spending? We have millions of voters whose "lobbyist payment" is their ballot for more handouts. That is not lobbying with cash, that is lobbying with votes. Democrats need people on welfare like plantation owners needed slaves - a permanent underclass dependent on them for survival. Welfare recipients outnumber net taxpayers in many districts. You honestly think those politicians WANT people leaving the system? Of course not! They need their voting bloc. The incentive structure is broken. Politicians get elected by promising free stuff. Recipients vote for more free stuff. Taxpayers fund the free stuff. And anyone who questions this cycle gets called heartless. That is not a sustainable republic. That is a fiscal death spiral with a democratic veneer. But what do I know, I am only someone who actually understands how incentive structures work and what happens when more people vote themselves benefits than contribute to funding them.

Dear Democrats, Since you've made it crystal clear that requiring an ID to exercise a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT is "disenfranchisement" and "the new Jim Crow," I have a proposal. The Second Amendment is a constitutional right. Voting is a constitutional right. You claim requiring ID to vote suppresses people from exercising their right. Okay. Then requiring ID to purchase a firearm suppresses people from exercising THEIR right. Same logic. Same constitution. Same argument. So here's my challenge to every Republican in Congress: introduce a bill TOMORROW that eliminates ALL identification requirements for purchasing firearms. No background checks. No ID. No waiting periods. Nothing. If Democrats truly believe that ID requirements prevent citizens from exercising constitutional rights, they'll HAVE to support it. Right? ...right? Watch how fast they twist themselves into pretzels. "Well, THAT'S different because—" No. Stop. It's not different. You don't get to argue that an ID requirement is an unconstitutional burden on ONE right but a perfectly reasonable safeguard for ANOTHER. That's not how the Constitution works. Either ID requirements disenfranchise people or they don't. Pick one. And let's be honest about what's really happening here. The party that created Jim Crow literacy tests, had a former KKK RECRUITER in Robert Byrd filibuster the Civil Rights Act for 14 hours, and segregated federal offices under Woodrow Wilson is now telling me that Black Americans can't figure out how to get a free government ID. India scans fingerprints for 1.4 BILLION voters. But apparently Americans are too helpless to show the same card they used to buy Sudafed on the way to the polls. The SAVE Act passed the House requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote. Democrats fought it tooth and nail. Why? What POSSIBLE reason would you oppose verifying that voters are citizens unless you NEED non-citizens on the rolls? Quinn's Law #2: "If you want to know what liberals are up to, pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing." They scream "voter suppression" while fighting every measure to secure elections. They're not protecting rights. They're protecting a system they can manipulate. So I'm dead serious. Put the bill on the floor. No ID for gun purchases. Call their bluff. Make them explain why an ID requirement is tyranny at the ballot box but common sense at the gun store. I'll bring the popcorn. But what do I know? I'm just a guy who thinks constitutional rights should be treated equally — not selectively — depending on which ones the left finds politically convenient.

WHATTTTTTTTTTT THE FUCK IS THIS?!? Something we already know and have fucking known... But the left... Lol. Fucking idiots that they are... The Epstein files just dropped another MOAB right on your empty skulls: back in 2006, Donald Trump...yes, THAT Donald Trump...was one of the very first people to pick up the phone and call Palm Beach PD to report Jeffrey Epstein’s child-trafficking operation. He explicitly called Ghislaine Maxwell Epstein’s “evil” enforcer. This is in a 2019 FBI 302 interview, straight from the unsealed documents. While your geriatric rapist hero Bill Clinton was taking 26 documented flights on the Lolita Express...some with secret service conveniently absent...while your Hollywood idols and donor-class ghouls were island-hopping with a known pedophile, Trump saw the sickness, banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago for life, and fed law enforcement intel that helped build the case. And you obtuse, projection-soaked morons spent nine straight years screeching “Trump is Epstein’s best friend!” because your diseased psyches cannot process that the man you hate with religious fervor is the one who actually helped stop the monster. Classic Freudian projection: accuse your enemy of the exact depravity rotting in your own camp. Legally? Trump has never been accused by a single victim. Not one. Zero depositions, zero testimony, zero flight logs to the island, zero criminal referrals. Just Epstein desperately trying to reach him years after Trump cut the creep off forever. Meanwhile, your side’s names litter the black book, the flight logs, and the plea deal witness lists. You are not merely ignorant. You are willfully, gleefully, pathologically blind...marinated in cognitive dissonance so thick it could choke a whale. You needed Trump to be the villain because confronting the truth would force you to admit your entire political religion is built on protecting predators. So keep coping. Keep seething. Keep pretending the party of “believe all women” didn’t memory-hole every Epstein connection that didn’t point at Orange Man. The rest of us see you clearly: morally bankrupt, intellectually castrated, and skull-fucked by reality. 💀🔪🩸
Eric Daugherty@EricLDaugh

🚨 BREAKING: Files confirm Donald Trump BLEW THE WHISTLE on Jeffrey Epstein's disgusting activities in a 2006 phone call with the police "TRUMP was one of the very first people to call" 👀 Trump said Ghislaine Maxwell is "evil" and "focus on her" Democrats are SPEECHLESS.

While I am all for the end of this regime. These people created this financial run knowing it would cause riots and people would die. They were happy to sacrifice fellow humans to make this gain. It’s a sick world we live in folks. How many lives that never get fully lived have been sacrificed by the many for the arrogant few in these last 3 millennium.

⚡️This was a deliberate weaponization of monetary infrastructure. The United States executed a precision strike on Iran’s liquidity lifeline by engineering a dollar squeeze - constricting offshore channels, pressuring regional clearing nodes, and blocking semi-official networks used for energy settlement and currency stabilization. What Bessent is describing isn’t sanctions in the traditional sense. It’s monetary siege warfare. The dollar shortage was not a byproduct of policy but a coordinated objective - the endgame was to trigger internal collapse through monetary suffocation. The December bank failure wasn’t a random event. It was the weakest node cracking under reflexive stress. The central bank printed because it had no other option. No access to dollar liquidity, no trust in the rial, no confidence in forward stability. Once the run began, the psychological contagion took over. The currency collapsed because foreign pressure engineered the conditions where domestic fragilities were guaranteed to implode. This was an asymmetric kill shot using monetary velocity as the weapon. Not bombs. Not blockades. Not cyber. Just liquidity starvation. And it worked. The streets filled with protests. The regime was forced into negotiations. Internal legitimacy collapsed faster than external pressure could be blamed. Every Iranian citizen now feels that the regime cannot protect basic financial security. That is how you break a system from the inside using external leverage. This is economic warfare elevated to its purest form. The battlefield was balance sheets. The weapon was credit withdrawal. The outcome was engineered reflexive implosion. This is how the Empire fights now. Quiet. Precise. Irreversible. And Iran just learned it in real time.
Open Source Intel@Osint613

U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent on Iran: “We created a dollar shortage in the country. It came to a swift conclusion. I would say the culmination came in December, when one of the largest banks in Iran went under after a bank run. The central bank had to print money. The Iranian currency went into free fall, inflation exploded, and as a result, we’ve seen the Iranian people out on the streets.”

If you have high blood pressure, you may want to stop reading now! I'm about to show you how the federal government has been ROBBING you blind for your entire working life, and the numbers are going to make you absolutely FURIOUS. Meet "Average Joe." He's not a CEO. He's not a trust fund baby. He's the guy who earned exactly the AVERAGE American salary for his age every single year of his working life. Started working at 18 in 1981, making $3,233 that year. Worked his way up like everyone else. By 2024, he was making $88,291 - right at the national average for someone his age. Joe did everything right. He showed up. He worked. He played by the rules. For 46 years, the government FORCED Joe and his employers to pay into Social Security. Every paycheck - 6.2% from Joe, 6.2% from his employer. That's 12.4% of EVERYTHING Joe ever earned, taken before he could even touch it. Joe's TOTAL contributions over his lifetime: $249,642 Here's what makes my blood boil. That money doesn't sit in an account with Joe's name on it. It doesn't collect interest. It doesn't grow. The MOMENT they take it from Joe's check, THEY SPEND IT on current retirees. Joe's "retirement fund" is nothing but an IOU - a promise that future workers will pay for HIM someday. That's not a retirement plan. That's a PONZI SCHEME. Paying earlier investors with money from newer investors. Bernie Madoff went to prison for this. The federal government made it mandatory. So what does Joe GET for his $249,642? At 67, Joe collects about $2,163/month. If he lives 18 years (average life expectancy), he'll receive roughly $467,208 total. "See? He gets back more than he put in!" Oh really? Let me show you what Joe SHOULD have had. I ran the EXACT same numbers through a TSP (Thrift Savings Plan) invested in an S&P 500 index fund - the same option the MILITARY uses. Same contributions. Joe's 6.2% plus his employer's 6.2%. Invested in the market. Dividends reinvested. Using ACTUAL historical returns from 1981-2026 - including the 2008 crash, 2022 downturn, every bad year. JOE'S TSP BALANCE AT RETIREMENT: $2,551,938 Yes, count the digits again, two commas. I'll wait while you pick your jaw up off the floor. TWO AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS. From the same money the government took and WASTED. Using the conservative 4% withdrawal rule, Joe could pull $8,506 EVERY SINGLE MONTH - that's nearly FOUR TIMES what Social Security pays. And his balance would likely KEEP GROWING. But here's what REALLY gets me. When Joe dies, Social Security pays his family NOTHING. His wife? His kids? His grandkids? ZERO. 46 years of contributions vanish like they never existed. But the TSP? His family inherits over $2.5 MILLION. Every single working-class American should have GENERATIONAL WEALTH. Your kids should inherit something. Your grandkids should have a head start. But the government is BLOCKING you from building that wealth by forcing you into Social Security instead of letting you invest YOUR money in YOUR account. You want a better life for your kids. The government surely does NOT. They want your children starting from zero, just like you did. They want every generation dependent on government checks instead of family wealth. They want control. THE ROBBERY IN BLACK AND WHITE: SOCIAL SECURITY: Joe contributes $249,642 Joe MIGHT collect $467,208 (if he lives long enough) Joe's family inherits $0 Joe's kids start from ZERO TSP (S&P 500): Joe contributes $249,642 Balance grows to $2,551,938 Joe collects $102,078/year ($8,506/month) Joe's family inherits MILLIONS Joe's kids get a REAL head start The government stole over TWO MILLION DOLLARS from Average Joe. Not a billionaire. Not a CEO. Just a regular guy who worked his whole life and trusted the system. And they stole his children's inheritance too. And you know what really burns? Congress EXEMPTED THEMSELVES from Social Security. They get their own cushy pension. The people who FORCE you into this disaster made absolutely sure THEY don't have to participate in it. Their kids inherit plenty. President Bush tried to fix this in 2005 with personal retirement accounts. Democrats called it "destroying Social Security." Translation: they wanted to keep the scam running. They NEED you dependent on that government check. They NEED your kids dependent too. The Army already figured this out. The Blended Retirement System lets service members invest in TSP accounts. If it's good enough for our troops, why isn't it good enough for every American worker? Quinn's First Law: "Liberalism always generates the exact opposite of its stated intent." Social Security was supposed to provide retirement SECURITY. Instead, it's the greatest wealth transfer AWAY from working Americans in history - and it ensures working-class families NEVER build generational wealth. This is why they fight against financial literacy in schools. They don't want you running these numbers. They need you ignorant and dependent. Generation after generation. But what do I know? I'm just a science teacher who can actually do math and isn't afraid to show you that the government has been running a legal Ponzi scheme on American workers since 1935 - and stealing your children's future in the process. Feel free to share this with everyone you know. They deserve to see exactly how badly they're being robbed.

People don't realize what actually happens when the illegal population is gone. Suddenly Americans start getting real raises again. Hospitals stop drowning in overcrowded ERs. Schools breathe, class sizes finally return to something sane. Insurance bills drop instead of climbing every year. Young families can actually buy homes. Grocery prices level out because the welfare load crushing the system anymore. DMV lines move, Traffic lightens. Neighborhoods calm down. Crime stats shift in the right direction for the first time in decades. Organ transplant lists move faster. Teenagers get the jobs they used to get before cheap illegal labor replaced them. Trade programs fill with American kids who can actually earn a living again. And people start having families because the cost living isn't strangling them. You remove the illegal burden, and the country snaggs back into shape almost overnight.

In Ohio, SNAP pays out $1,421 PER MONTH for a family of six. How does that make you feel? I don't know about you, but I'm LIVID. Let's call it what it is: FREE FOOD WITH FRAUD. I feed my family of six on $120-130 PER WEEK. That's $520-560 a month. Restaurant quality meals. Chicken Piccata with wine sauce. Gouda Stuffed Thighs. Homemade Scampi. Fresh vegetables every dinner. HALF of what SNAP hands out. I have the receipts. So why is the government paying people nearly TRIPLE what I spend? What are they buying? GARBAGE. Energy drinks. Hot Cheetos. Mountain Dew. Processed junk creating an obesity epidemic that I get to pay for through Medicaid. I'm getting SCREWED. TWICE. I fund the garbage food with my taxes. Then I fund the diabetes treatment. I'm financing America's health crisis from BOTH ends while making Chilli like a CHUMP. And the comments on my last post? Blood boiling. "You can't feed a family good food on a budget." "Your meals need to be more FANCY." Are you out of your ever-loving MINDS? Aldi. THIS MORNING. February 2nd, 2026. Here's what "not fancy enough" looks like: MONDAY: Chicken Piccata - $2.07/person Chicken breast at $2.49/lb, butter at $3.29/lb, Sauvignon Blanc at $4.39/bottle, fresh lemons at $3.19/lb, broccoli at $2.15/lb. This costs $24 at restaurants. I made it for two bucks. TUESDAY: Chicken Scampi with Bowties - $2.17/person Garlic butter wine sauce, farfalle at $0.85/bag, wilted spinach at $1.99. My kids think we're at Olive Garden. WEDNESDAY: Homemade Chili - $2.37/person Ground beef at $5.39/lb, black beans at $0.89, crushed tomatoes at $1.65, tomato sauce at $0.55. Wednesday dinner AND Thursday lunch. That's not cheap. That's SMART. THURSDAY: Chicken Over Rice with Pan Gravy - $1.41/person Homemade gravy from the drippings. Baby carrots at $1.09. My grandmother would slap you for throwing away those drippings. FRIDAY: Taco Night - $1.93/person Ground beef, vine tomatoes at $3.19, romaine at $3.29, cheddar at $1.89 I shred myself because pre-shredded is for quitters, shells at $1.65. SATURDAY: Gouda Spinach Stuffed Chicken Thighs - $2.64/person This one REALLY torches me. Thighs at $1.55/lb, skin pulled back, stuffed UNDER THE SKIN with Gouda at $3.09, spinach at $1.99, and a pinch of nutmeg. Pan-seared golden in the oven. French green beans at $2.99/lb. DINNER PARTY FOOD. Guests ask for this recipe. Under three bucks. SUNDAY: Chicken Caesar Salad - $1.20/person Romaine at $3.29, grilled chicken, parmesan at $3.95, croutons from stale bread because I'm not an idiot. AVERAGE: Under $2.00/person. "What about DRINKS?" Glad you asked. We infuse water with lemon and orange slices.Someone alert the media. Same fruit lasts days. Kids actually drink it. No soda. No juice boxes. We don't BUY drinks. We MAKE them. Breakfast? Eggs at $2.19/dozen. Eighteen cents per person. Lunch? Leftovers. Because food doesn't expire at midnight. Weekly: $120-130 Monthly: $520-560 SNAP for family of six: $1,421 Almost $900 MORE than what I spend on Piccata, Stuffed Thighs, and fresh everything. When did "SUPPLEMENTAL" become "Nearly Triple What Responsible Families Spend"? Quinn's 25th Law: "Liberals are great at giving away other people's money." My solution? SCRAP THE EBT CARD. The left loves socialism. Here's the irony: actual socialist systems have NO MONEY. You get rations. You get what the state provides. Let's give them exactly what they want. Partner with Aldi. Three meal plans. Pick A, B, or C, grab a box of ingredients with recipes. No card. No cash value. No trading for cigarettes behind 7-Eleven. Can't sell chicken thighs for drug money. Can't trade gouda for scratch-offs. There's NO MONEY. Just food. You want socialism? HERE IT IS. Every box teaches families to cook. Real portions. Pan gravy from drippings. Infused water instead of soda. Kids watch and learn skills for life. They learn to BUDGET. When you see what feeds six people weekly, you understand real costs. When you leave the program, you have SKILLS. The current system wants dependency. Mine makes itself OBSOLETE!!! This fixes Medicaid too. Obesity, diabetes, heart disease - all from garbage diets I'm funding. Fresh vegetables PREVENT those diseases. Every broccoli dollar saves ten in medical bills later. Fraud disappears overnight. Can't sell raw chicken for cash. But this will NEVER happen. The system keeps people dependent, voting for whoever promises more. SNAP costs $8.2 BILLION monthly. That's an INDUSTRY that needs poor people to stay poor. Quinn's First Law: "Liberalism always generates the exact opposite of its stated intent." I teach in a high-need district where all my students get free lunch. Single income. Teacher's salary. Stay-at-home mom. Four kids. DEBT FREE except mortgage. We spend HALF what SNAP provides while eating Gouda Stuffed Thighs with nutmeg and drinking lemon water like people who have their lives together. Tell me my meals aren't fancy enough. I DARE you. Every price from ALDI TODAY. Walk in and check. But what do I know? I'm just a taxpayer feeding his family restaurant meals on half what the government hands out, a teacher in a district everyone abandoned, an Army combat medic, and apparently the only person who thinks personal responsibility should matter more than creating government-dependent voters who can't boil water.
