This is the best explanation of the US political system you’ll ever hear.

@ConceptualJames @chrisdmowrey Every profession is a confession.

Sir, your brains are scrambled eggs, and id like to explain why to you. You're operating under a political paradigm called "the friend-enemy distinction." It makes you define yourself and your sense of self and self-valuation in terms of being against the political "enemy," who is Trump and his supporters for your particular political cult. And yes, it is a cult psychosocial framework, hence your brains being turned into scrambled eggs through your participation in it. You might want to know where this model came from, since you're trapped in it, though. It was described by Carl Schmitt, an important legal theorist in Hitler's Third Reich. Look it up. You'll see I'm exactly correct. Your brains are scrambled because you've been running Nazi political theory, probably for a long time. I'm certain you had no idea, but it's completely true. Seriously, look it up. You'll see. You don't have to keep living this way, running Nazi political models as means to achieving a positive sense of self-worth. There are better ways. Blessings.

Not happening. Donald Trump is more unpopular than he ever has been. On every issue that got him elected, he’s underwater by well over double digits. Dems will sweep.

And we humans think we are smart.

@StormiHogan @ThraceAlex @RepThomasMassie We should install cameras in all ICUs too, to monitor the care givers.

@ThraceAlex @RepThomasMassie Pureblood! My brain still works great! How about yours? Who do you trust?

Would you believe 57 Republicans and 211 Democrats recently voted in favor of this Orwellian automobile kill-switch? Here’s the roll call for the vote I forced to defund the mandate: clerk.house.gov/evs/2026/roll0…

I have three monitors on my desk. The left one shows the order book. The middle one shows Truth Social. The right one shows the investigation queue. On April 21st, the left screen moved first. I am a Senior Surveillance Analyst at a commodities exchange. I have held this position for nineteen years. My job is to monitor trading activity for suspicious patterns and generate compliance reports. I am employee of the quarter. I have a mug. At 19:54 GMT on April 21st, someone placed 4,260 sell orders on Brent crude futures. They did this during post-settlement. The window after the market closes when daily volume is typically in the dozens. Sometimes single digits. Sometimes I watch the screen and nothing happens for forty minutes and I think about whether my daughter is happy. On April 21st, someone placed $430 million in directional bets in 120 seconds during that window. One hundred and twenty seconds. I timed it on my watch because the system clock rounds to the nearest minute and I have found, in nineteen years, that precision matters to no one but me. At 20:10 GMT, the President posted on Truth Social that he was extending the Iran ceasefire. Brent dropped from $100.91 to $96.83. I flagged the trade. I flag a lot of trades. I want to tell you what happens to my flags. My flags go into a system called TRACE. Trade Review and Compliance Evaluation. I did not name it. The system generates a report. The report goes to a committee. The committee has a name I am not allowed to share but I can tell you it meets quarterly and the conference room has a credenza with bottled water that is sparkling because someone once put still water in the room and a managing director sent an email about it that was longer than most of my surveillance reports. The committee reviews my flags. The committee has reviewed all of my flags. Here is the complete record of actions taken on my flags in 2026: Reviewed. That's it. "Reviewed" is a status. In compliance, a status is the absence of an action that has been given a name so it looks like one. Let me show you my flags. March 9th. Someone bet millions on oil falling at 18:29 GMT. Forty-seven minutes later, a CBS reporter posted that the President said the Iran war was "very complete, pretty much." Oil dropped 25%. Forty-seven minutes. I flagged it. March 23rd. Someone sold 5,100 lots of Brent and WTI crude futures between 10:49 and 10:50 GMT. Fourteen minutes later, the President posted on Truth Social about a "COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION" to hostilities. Oil dropped 11%. Over 13,000 contracts traded in sixty seconds after the post. Fourteen minutes. I flagged it. April 7th. Someone established a $950 million short position in oil futures at 19:45 GMT. Three hours later, the President declared a two-week ceasefire. Nine hundred and fifty million dollars. I flagged it. April 17th. Someone placed $760 million in bearish bets twenty minutes before Iran's foreign minister confirmed the Strait of Hormuz would reopen. Seven hundred and sixty million. I flagged it. April 21st. The $430 million. Fifteen minutes. I flagged it. That is $2.1 billion in directional oil bets in April alone. Every one of them landed on the correct side of a presidential announcement. Every one of them was placed in a window so narrow you could measure it in bathroom breaks. I flagged every single one. The CFTC chair told a Congressional committee that his organization has "zero tolerance" for fraud and insider trading. I wrote that quote on a Post-it note and stuck it to my right monitor. The one that shows the investigation queue. The investigation queue has not moved since March. Zero tolerance. Zero staff. Zero budget. Zero prosecutions under the STOCK Act since it was signed in 2012. Fourteen years. The law has existed for fourteen years and has been enforced zero times. In compliance, we call that a compliance rate of one hundred percent. No cases filed means no cases lost. You cannot fail an audit you never conduct. We call that excellence. Last month the White House sent an internal email to staff. I was not on the distribution list but I have read reporting on it and I need you to sit with what I am about to say. The email instructed White House staff not to use insider information to place bets on prediction markets. The White House had to send a memo telling its own employees not to insider-trade. I want you to read that sentence again. Not because the instruction was unclear. Because the instruction was necessary. Because someone in the building looked at the same pattern I have been flagging for months on my three monitors and decided the appropriate response was an email. The President's son sits on the advisory board of Kalshi. He is an investor in Polymarket. Both are prediction markets. Both saw accounts created days before U.S. military action. One account. I cannot stop thinking about this account. It was called "Burdensome-Mix." It was created in December. On January 2nd, it placed $32,500 on Venezuela's president being removed from power. On January 3rd, Maduro was seized by U.S. special forces. Burdensome-Mix collected $436,000. Then it changed its username. Then it disappeared. One account is a coincidence. But there were six. Six accounts were created on Polymarket in February. All bet on U.S. strikes on Iran by the 28th. When the President confirmed the strikes, the six accounts collected $1.2 million between them. Five of the six never placed another bet. The sixth went on to correctly predict the ceasefire date and made another $163,000. My surveillance system logged all of this. My system logs everything. My system does not have opinions and neither do I. I generate reports. The reports go to committees. The committees meet quarterly. Between meetings, the windows get shorter and the bets get larger. March 9th: 47 minutes. March 23rd: 14 minutes. April 17th: 20 minutes. April 21st: 15 minutes. The window is compressing. In March, you had time to make coffee between the trade and the announcement. By April, you had time to send a text. By summer, at this rate, the trade and the announcement will be the same event. The spokesman said any implication that administration officials are engaged in insider trading is "baseless and irresponsible reporting." Then the White House sent the email again. I have been in compliance for nineteen years. I have seen insider trading run out of strip mall offices by men who could not spell "derivative." I have seen pump-and-dump schemes coordinated over WhatsApp by people who used their real names. I have seen a man try to manipulate soybean futures from a Panera Bread. I have never seen $2.1 billion in perfectly timed trades across five presidential announcements in a single month go uninvestigated. But I have also never seen a compliance system work this beautifully. Every trade flagged. Every report filed. Every committee briefed. Every quarterly meeting attended. Bottled water: sparkling. Minutes: distributed. Zero prosecutions. As long as the flags go up and the cases don't, my performance review says I am meeting expectations. I am meeting expectations. The system is meeting expectations. The $2.1 billion is meeting expectations. The fourteen-year-old law with zero prosecutions is meeting expectations. The left screen moves. The middle screen moves. The right screen stays perfectly, immaculately still. In my field, we call this price discovery.

@patrickbetdavid Dude, that's as fake as your MLM pyramid insurance business.

@SethDillon @ConceptualJames Your whole post is just guilt by association glued to a cheap trans insult because the actual argument is too weak to stand on its own.

If you love America but support Israel, you're "Israel First." If you love America but don't hate Israel, you're still "Israel First." The only way to be "America First," it would seem, is to openly hate Israel. The problem is that this group is dominated by America-hating Nazis, America-hating Islamists, and America-hating progressives. It's an Anti-American movement wearing the flag as a disguise, like a transgender wearing a dress.

Send this to every kid 10 and up

@heckyessica Make a video of the woman helping him build the fence or the raised flower bed.

not every man… but it’s always a man

Since Congress is completely useless. We should have national referendums whereas citizens are allowed to vote on things like; ending military aid to Israel, end the Patriot Act, authorizing military action against other countries.

Before we comment on how horrible this is, let’s make sure we check in with a Nick Fuentes to make sure he doesn’t agree with us. Because if he does, we MUST support the torture and barbarism carried out by IDF in Gaza according to the genius terror supporters over at @canarymission

@Badhombre Don’t forget the 170 little girls we killed when ‘merica bombed their school!

How snarky of you, Glenn. Yes, the strait that was open prior to the conflict is open again, except now: - 250 of the Iranian regimes top leaders are dead - their new ayatollah is gayer than you - 90% of their ballistic missile launchers and stockpile are destroyed - its navy has 92% of their large vessels at the bottom of the ocean - 70% of their air defenses and missile/drone production sites are gone - their nuclear program is set back for years, - they’re dealing with $270 billion in infrastructure damage.

Wherever Israel goes, young children are slaughtered and massacred like this, because -- and it's so vital to understand this about Israel -- that state does not assign value to the human life of anyone outside of the dominant, supreme ethno-religious group that rules it.

the worst she can say is no, right?

The research behind this is wild. Your sperm carries a set of instructions that tell your genes when to turn on and off. A Duke University study found that THC rewrites those instructions. The more weed in your system, the bigger the changes. It goes straight for the genes your future embryo needs in its first week of life. I had to read the "day 3 crash" part twice. For the first three days after fertilization, an embryo runs entirely on the mother's DNA. Day 3, the father's genes switch on. If those genes carry cannabis damage, the embryo just stops growing. Fertility doctors see this happen in their labs: embryos that fertilized fine and looked healthy on day 2 go completely still by day 5. Boston University tracked 1,535 couples trying to have a baby. Men who smoked weed once a week or more doubled their partner's miscarriage risk. That number held up even when the woman herself never touched cannabis. And the miscarriages clustered in the first 8 weeks, right when the father's damaged DNA would be doing the most harm. Duke also found that the specific genes THC alters in sperm overlap with genes linked to autism. One of those genes, called DLGAP2, helps brain cells communicate with each other. It was changed in cannabis users' sperm. When researchers bred THC-exposed male rats and checked their offspring, the same altered gene pattern showed up in the pups' brains. The damage crossed a generation. Weed has gotten way stronger over the last 30 years. THC content was about 4% in the 1990s but nearly quadrupled to 15% by 2018, and modern dispensary strains regularly sit at 20-30%. Concentrates go up to 95%. Quitting for about 11 weeks (one full cycle of sperm production) reverses some of the DNA changes. Not all of them. Duke's lead researcher says men should stop at least 6 months before trying for a baby. Half of your kid's genetic blueprint comes from you, and right now, THC is editing that blueprint before conception even happens.

Ouch

@TheQuartering @Timcast Based on your appearance, it’s obvious that you make great decisions.

@Timcast I still back Donald Trump. My vote will cancel out your democrat votes. :)

THAT DOES IT I AM DONE THIS WAS THE LAST STRAW I'M SO ANGRY

@yousef_ki1 @YLeBolloch

Absolutely BRILLIANT! The Whiskey-the-Pete part had me spitting my water. 😂 Watch this. 🔥🤣🔥

“If Iran wants to let this negotiation fall apart over Lebanon… that's ultimately their choice. We think that would be dumb, but it's their choice.” The Trump admin would rather let Iran close the Strait of Hormuz again than simply tell Israel to stop bombing civilians.

“You crash the world/just to buy the dip” What a bar. Looks like 1,000 AI Lego videos are blooming.
