@BreitbartNews For such a talented actor, he's quite literally retarded. @grok was Trump one of the main reasons Epstein ended up in prison and how many exploited missing children, lost under the Biden admin, has the Trump administration rescued?

Today the ICC member states overwhelmingly voted to fire Karim Khan for misconduct. If you get your info from @mehdirhasan or Al Jazeera, you might be under the false impression that he was “cleared” of wrongdoing.

Mehdi Hasan@mehdirhasan

A panel of independent judges unanimously cleared Karim Khan just the other week. The arrest warrants for your beloved Netanyahu still stand and were issued by an ICC chamber of independent judges. Keep justifying war crimes though!

Great work by @ernietedeschi on productivity growth, which is elevated but not due to AI, despite gains by Individual firms. Notable, higher productivity raises not lowers the non-inflationary fed funds rate. Also notable, all that productivity growth not enough to hold inflation in check. I know, you are tired of me talking about inflation.

New @Stripe Economics piece today about the recent firming of US productivity growth & AI's potential role in it. TLDR: we're likely in a high-productivity period today, but the main driver *so far* is firms running their existing capital hotter, not microproductivity gains. /1

BREAKING: President Trump says the US has opened a 301 investigation into the practice of the EU "robbing" American companies. Trump says the EU will pay "a very big price" and a "substantial tariff" is expected to be imposed as soon as possible.

@NYCMayor This obviously is against the most basic of our constitution and will be struck down by the Supreme Court.

If you have a second home in New York City worth more than $5M, check your mailbox when you’re back in the five boroughs — because you've got mail. Today, we sent notification letters to property owners, letting them know that our new pied-à-terre tax is coming soon. The best city in the world deserves the best parks, libraries, and schools in the world. That's only possible when we all pay our fair share.

The difference between Elon and this reporter: Elon builds things millions of people use, love and benefit from All this reporter produces is fake news: selective facts, dishonest framing and propaganda disguised as journalism Just listen to her shouting throughout the interview. It looks less like journalism and more like watching a leftist protester being asked, “Which rights are you protesting for?”......only to reply, “Am I supposed to know that?” One creates real value. The other manufactures fake outrage Trust in legacy media has hit an all-time low. No wonder nobody trusts them anymore 𝕏 is where truth wears the crown 👑

The Pantheon in Rome was completed around 125 AD. Its dome spans 43.3 metres in diameter. At the time of its construction, it was the largest dome on Earth. It is still the largest unreinforced concrete dome on Earth. No rebar. No steel. No post-tensioning. Just concrete, and extraordinary engineering. How it works: The dome is not uniform concrete. It's a sophisticated gradient structure: • At the base: heavy travertine and tuff aggregate in the concrete • Moving upward: lighter pumice and scoria aggregate • At the oculus (the open hole at the top): near-pure Roman cement The wall thickness decreases from 6.3 metres at the base to 1.2 metres near the top. The coffered ceiling (the recessed panels) reduces mass without reducing structural integrity. The oculus – 8.7 metres in diameter, open to the sky, isn't a weakness. It's a structural release valve that eliminates the tension ring that would otherwise crack the dome. Engineers in the 19th century tried to understand how the Pantheon was built. They couldn't fully explain why it hadn't collapsed. In 2008, MIT researchers finally modelled it computationally. Their conclusion: the Roman concrete's composition means it actually gets stronger under compressive load over time. The engineers who built it didn't have the mathematics to explain why it worked. It worked anyway. Intuition + experience + the right material = 2,000 years and counting.

#蹭網發推之一八二 郭道暉遺訓與“旺旺事件” 廣東揭陽5個未滿14歲少年殘害死流浪狗“旺旺”及牠的三隻幼犬的行徑令國人髮指 ,山西又爆出對成年狗和幼狗剝皮致死的慘劇,在中國社交平台持續形成聲討浪潮;呼籲國家立法保護動物的行動遍及全國,被稱為“旺旺事件”。 X“李老師不是你老師”收到大量網友舉報:“一網友因在“央視新聞”微博留言‘希望每一個小動物都能也一樣得到保護’,而後被央視刪評並拉黑。”“深圳萬象城投放了反虐待動物的公益廣告,上線一兩個小時,就有公安就上門要求下架。”“1名IP顯示為北京的網友在評論區稱,其所在地一家燒烤店在門口懸掛‘反對虐待動物’燈牌後,燈牌被強制拆除,店主也被警察帶走約6小時,而警方給出的理由是“危害公共安全”。 這些都是公權力對民權的肆意踐踏。 更有“瀋陽大東區網信辦的輿情風險提示單”的曝光,證明公權力對民權的踐踏,來自政府系統的層層指令。 需要質問:中共當前為何封殺 “要善待動物”, “國家應立法保護動物”,這種發自人性,體現人類文明和國家文明的表達和行動呢? 郭道暉說了:“憲法只實現了七個字 這讓我回憶起今年四月辭世的中國“法治三老”的最後一位——98歲郭道暉先生對中國憲法的一句評價,他說:“中國憲法只實現了7個字——‘中國共產黨領導’。”一針見血揭露了中共專制的本質。 2004年,中共正式將“國家尊重和保障人權”寫入《憲法》。中國憲法與憲政國家憲法存在本質區別。憲政是用憲法規約或控制政府,以民主核心價值及法律實際效力保障民權和民權的核心——“主權在民”與“公民監督”。而中國憲法要建立和維護的卻是“黨大於法的絕對權力”,壓制和剝奪的恰恰是民權和民權的核心。 中共建制76年的權力來源主要建立在歷史敘事、暴力威懾與意識形態控制之上。民權的實現通常伴隨著真相調查與轉型正義。中共要維持對社會的絕對控制權,必然與憲法保障的公民權利產生的持續不斷的衝突,使得憲法對民權的保障形同虛設。鄧小平提出“以經濟建設為中心”的同時提出‘壓倒一切是穩定“。發展到胡錦濤時代,對持續不斷發生的群體事件提出”露頭就打“。十八大以來,對社會控制更是一步緊似一步。2013年8月19日”全國宣傳工作會議“提出黨媒姓黨,敢於亮劍”,內部指示”網絡是黨之大患、國之大患、亡黨亡國“。依賴精密的審查系統、嚴密的國家監控機制以及龐大的維穩預算來防範公共輿論和群體性事件。 政權安全、制度安全放在“第一位”,超過經濟發展 2014年4月15日:習近平在中央國家安全委員會第一次全體會議上提出“總體國家安全觀”,明定以政治安全為根本,標誌政治穩定與政權安全被拉高到國家安全體系的核心層次 2018年4月17日:習近平在十九屆中央國家安全委員會第一次會議上,確立政治安全在國家安全大局中的統領地位。 今年是中共建黨105週年,就在“七一“前夕,發生了廣東揭陽虐狗案,中共當局絲毫不考慮在動物保護立法上的嚴重缺失,未成年人教育的缺失,而是基於政治安全展開對民意的鎮壓,對民權的踐踏。中共網絡安全與信息化系統竟然將此事件認定為“存在被境外勢力惡意關聯,借題炒作的政治風險”,”不排除引發極端動物保護群體線下聚集等涉穩隱患“。引發出國際大醜聞,和鐵鏈女一樣,盡人皆知。20多天了,仍被國際媒體和社交平臺抨擊和熱炒。
