Tonight, people around Dehdasht provided an important help to the American pilot. By showing up in large numbers on the roads, they effectively blocked the ONLY POSSIBLE ground route for the Islamic regime’s forces to reach to the area the pilot had ejected on. I am so proud of these noble people❤️. With empty hands and their lives in their hands isolated with NO INTERNET FOR 36 days now, they are doing everything they can to support this military strike as it is the ONLY opening they can have to GET RID of this terrorist regime, which they can never get rid of unarmed AS THEY ARE. #FreeIran‌ #IranRevolution2026‌ #LongLiveIran_JavidShah

Thank you President @realDonaldTrump

BREAKING NEWS: Ayatollah Khomeini is now eligible to vote as a registered Democrat in the upcoming midterms.

@BobStein_FT Trump is the only answer

The problem here and elsewhere throughout the education system top to bottom K-12, college, and beyond is that as society becomes more prosperous the people who teach and administer these institutions become increasingly less intelligent (and correspondingly more attracted to ideologies of resentment) relative to those with the highest aptitudes. Worse, I don’t see an easy way out of this problem.

@SullyCNBC Vote republican. Biden fucked it up. Add that in your bias CNBC commentary

The family dinner that was $100 5 years ago is now $150. Auto insurance that was $200 is now $350 Home insurance that was $300 is now $450 How does the Fed fix those? It can't. Wages will keep going up, but still not fast enough to mitigate price hikes. That's the challenge.

Who Will Build NYC if Builders Are the Enemy? As a New Yorker Jew, I'm surrounded by people who have been in real estate their entire lives. I am not trying to feed a stereotype, but that's my reality. They aren't activists or online commentators. They are people who bought their first buildings with all their savings, carried debt through rate hikes, fixed things themselves when there was no money to hire, and stayed in New York through high crime, recessions, 2008, COVID, rising taxes, insurance increases, and an ever-expanding book of laws and codes. None of them were promised fairness before they started, and none of them were protected from risk. They succeeded very slowly, and painfully, but with responsibly. That experience is exactly what is missing from the worldview of Zohran Mamdani, and it shows in every part of his housing agenda. Mamdani has never built anything. He never signed a personal guarantee, never met payroll, never carried a mortgage through a rough month, never had to choose between fixing a boiler now or hoping it survives another winter because there is no cash. He has only operated in a political world where consequences are abstract and other people absorb the risk. When you have never operated in the real economy, it becomes easy to believe that shortcuts are solutions. It is also why his message resonates with a certain type of voter. The people demanding “housing reforms” are not bad people. They are frustrated renters who feel like the system is rigged against them. I understand the frustration. But frustration doesn't change math. Housing is hard. Ownership is a very slow process. Building anything meaningful in this city takes years of stress, and debt. The people calling for "landlord policies" often want the outcome without the grind, the stability without the risk, and the reward without the years of sweating that every responsible adult who succeeded here had to endure. But it does not work like that. NYC is in housing crisis. Citywide vacancy sits around 1.4 percent, a level economists consider an emergency. Median rents keep rising anyway, with Manhattan near $4,800 and Brooklyn around $3,800, even under an already thick layer of regulation. The reason is obvious. Supply has not kept up. In a good year, New York adds roughly 30,000 units. The city needs hundreds of thousands more over the next decade just to stabilize prices. At the same time, construction costs here are among the highest in the country, financing is extremely difficult, and insurance is wildly expensive Mamdani’s proposals take that fragile situation and make it worse. When you cap upside while leaving downside unlimited, rational people stop participating. Developers do not argue on X. Lenders do not protest. They simply reallocate. Projects stop coming up. Renovations are postponed. New construction dies before a shovel hits the ground. The people I know in real estate are not angry. They are disengaging. Some are buying elsewhere. Some are sitting on cash. Some are done entirely. And when that happens, tenants do not win. Buildings deteriorate, supply tightens further, and rents rise anyway. What Mamdani offers is emotional satisfaction, not solutions. He tells voters that prices are high because someone else is greedy, not because the city has spent decades making housing harder and almost impossible to build. He frames landlords as villains instead of participants in an ecosystem that only works when incentives align. That framing feels good, but it does not produce housing. It produces resentment, fear, and withdrawal. Everyone I know who made it in this city did it the same way. Slowly, without shortcuts. Policies written by people who never did that do not create fairness or affordability. They create shortages. NYC doesn't have a landlord problem. It has a confidence problem. And a city that teaches people to hate the builders while demanding more building is a city sabotaging its own future.

As of today, how much do you support Nick Shirley exposing corruption in Minnesota? A. 100% B. 50% C. Zero, just allegations.

@PhilMickelson @samstein Thanks Phil for having balls. That’s why we love u

@samstein Caning, forced labor, execution are ways other countries enforce their immigration laws. I’m not promoting that, just stating facts. We should enforce our own deportation laws and stop paying these illegal immigrants at the expense of our own citizens

I do wonder if Phil Mickelson is aware that Twitter is a PUBLIC posting service

@SergijOleksuk @WSJ He let this asshole in

I never met Charlie Kirk but I am gutted by this atrocity. Open debate is healthy and essential. Free speech is a constitutional right. Violence for disagreeing with someone is sick, deranged, and creates a greater division that becomes harder to overcome.

Happy birthday @VP @JDVance

@charliekirk11 That’s why I moved to Scottsdale

Was just in NYC all weekend with our family. Never felt safe. So many people in the city who don’t belong. Praying for all involved

@BarronTxNewsX Yes
