@NewReaganCaucus The last refuge of a TDS RINO scoundrel is to wrap themselves in the mantle of a dead Republican president that their historical counterparts would have likewise been undermining at every opportunity.

@paulsperry_ Oregon's population grew by 406K from 2010-2020. It's registered voters grew by 882K in that same timeframe.

BREAKING: Settlement of a Judicial Watch lawsuit has forced the review and removal of some 800,000 ineligible voters from Oregon voter rolls

@CynicalPublius Your first 3 were right. "Inclusion" = exclusion of sane people

I speak Democrat. Allow me to translate: "Affirmative action" = active discrimination "Diversity" = People who all think and act exactly alike "Equity" = Marxism "Inclusion" = exclusion of undesirable groups

@L4ingstone @NPR I guess Door #2 was a zonk.

The 15 Latin Americans deported from the US to Kinshasa are holed up in a hotel by the airport, where there are water cuts, rats, and lots of mosquitoes. They have no passports, don't speak French, and have no idea what comes next. My story for @NPR: npr.org/2026/04/28/nx-…

@epaleezeldin I bet @SenWhitehouse was also donating to the KKK ... er, I mean, the "SPLC". <wink wink>

I told Senator Sheldon WhiteClub today that I won’t be listening to or caring about any of his lessons on morality knowing that he joined an all-white Rhode Island Country Club. I’m also done with the likes of AOC, Al Gore, John Kerry, and the rest of the lying cabal that make stupid climate predictions, plunder tens of billions of tax dollars, enrich their well-connected allies, and are committed to strangulating out of existence entire sectors of our economy. Climate alarmist AOC wants to be taken seriously while also insisting the world is imminently about to end due to climate change (Just under 5 years remain on her nutty Jan 2019 prediction that only 12 years of life are left on Earth). Al Gore is now speaking publicly about his concern with global freezing after decades of grift talking about global warming. “Within the decade there will be no more snows of Kilimanjaro,” said Gore in 2006 (There’s still snow on Kilimanjaro year-round). Gore also predicted in 2009 ice-free Arctic summers within 5-7 years. John Kerry warned in 2009 that the Arctic would be ice-free by 2013. These people are dishonest, power-hungry hacks. The GREEN NEW SCAM is DEAD!!!

Today, I released a report showing that Biden health officials knew that safety signals for COVID-19 injection injuries were being hidden by their VAERS analytic algorithm. They were shown an updated algorithm that signaled serious adverse events, but they refused to use it. Their cover-up jeopardized the health of millions of Americans. Read my interim report and see the records here:

Daszak is the co-conspirator here. His indictment should be next. I didn’t think we’d ever see it, but accountability for the Covid origin cover up has finally arrived. Incredible.

@AAGDhillon @CivilRights So, any American who has ever applied at Cloudera should be contacting a lawyer?

We just sued Cloudera for discriminating against U.S. workers in favor of foreign visa holders for high-paying tech jobs. This is a violation of the Immigration & Nationality Act, & @CivilRights will not hesitate to sue employers for discriminating against U.S. workers! You are on notice! justice.gov/opa/pr/civil-r…

Kratman was the one who mentioned communism. Raymond never typed the word, and whether or not China is communist is completely irrelevant to any of his points. In any event, China HAS invaded another country within many people's lifetimes - Tibet. You can, perhaps, argue that China considered Tibet a part of China so it wasn't an "invasion invasion" (as Whoopie Goldberg might say)... but isn't that also what they say about Taiwan?

You know China isn't a communist country. They're just Chinese larping as Communists. 5000 years of history and old habits die hard. Their system was adapted from the broken remnants of actual communism which everyone knows failed spectacularly. They didn't revert to that failed system. They're smarter than that. They call their system Socialism with Chinese characteristics, which really is a uniquely Chinese system that works only for them. The reason I bring this up is that every single war porn scenario stems from the assumption that China is a communist country like the Soviet Union, hence any further calculus on waging war must be the same. The reality is it is not. The basic premise that China is communist is already wrong. Downstream conclusions are also wrong. China, in modern history, has only ever occupied one other country (Vietnam, as you mentioned), and you'd have to go back to ancient history to find another example. They simply do not have a history of waging war and occupying other nations. These are the people who built a wall *to keep people out*. So your basic argument that China would be the one to wage any type of war is not supported by their history and it's anchored in a flawed assumption of how their system even works.

Tom didn't explain his second assertion, but it's important so I'm going to do it. China is in the worst strategic position of any great power in history because it is critically dependent on resources it has to import, and it doesn't have control of the sea lanes over which it imports them. China is neither food nor energy self-sufficient. It needs to import pork from the United States, grain from Africa, coal from Australia, and oil from the Middle East to keep its population fed and its factories running. Naval blockades at about three critical chokepoints (Hormuz, Malacca, Sunda) would cripple the Chinese economy within months, possibly within weeks. China does not have the blue-water navy required to contrast control of those chokepoints. The moment any first-rate naval power or even a second-rate like India decides China needs to be stopped, it's pretty much game over. As a completely separate issue thanks to the one-child policy, Chinese population probably peaked in 2006 and has been declining ever since. Every year in the foreseeable future they will have fewer military-age males than they do now. Most of those males are only sons; their deaths would wipe out entire family lines, giving the Chinese people an extremely low tolerance for war casualties. Then there's the glass jaw. The Three Gorges Dam. Which is already in some peril even without a war - you can compare photographs over time and see that it's sagging. If anyone gets annoyed enough to pop that dam thing with a bunker-buster or a pony nuke, the resulting floods will kill millions and wipe out the strip of central China that is by far the country's most industrially and agriculturally productive region. The Chinese haven't fought a war since 1971. They lost. Against Vietnam. The institutional knowledge that could potentially fit their army for doing anything more ambitious than suppressing regional warlordism does not exist. I could go on. But I think I've made Tom's statements sufficiently understandable already.

@andxdy @poof_eth Damn good point.

@JimTBreakout @poof_eth "whose family?"

Had a Jane Street interview in 2013 that still bothers me. It was my 6th round. Final interview. The guy walks in carrying no laptop, no notebook, just a cold brew and what I later realized was a single IKEA tea candle. He writes on the whiteboard: food: $200 rent: $800 utilities: $150 candles: $3,600 family: dying Then he turns around and says, “Optimize.” I laughed because I thought it was a culture-fit bit. He did not laugh. So I said, “Well, obviously you spend less on candles.” He says, “Assume candles are non-discretionary.” Okay. I start building a model. Basic constraint satisfaction. Family survival as a soft penalty. Candles as a state variable. Maybe there’s an arbitrage where you buy wholesale paraffin and convert the $3,600 line item into inventory. He stops me. “You’re thinking like a consultant.” That’s when I knew I was in trouble. He says, “Give me a bid-ask on family dying.” I say, “What?” He says, “You’re long candles, short family. Where do you make markets?” I try to recover. I say the real issue is liquidity: rent and utilities are fixed, food is elastic, candles are emotionally inelastic. Therefore the optimal strategy is to securitize future candle enjoyment and borrow against it. He nods for the first time. Then he asks, “What time do you sell the candles?” I say, “Whenever the market is liquid?” He says, “Be more specific.” I say, “Uh… 10 a.m. Eastern?” For the first time, he smiles. He goes, “Every day?” I say, “Every day.” He says, “In size?” I say, “In size.” He says, “And what do we call that?” I say, “Market manipulation?” The room gets very quiet. He looks disappointed and writes something down. “No. We call it providing liquidity to candle ETFs during the U.S. cash open.” I try to save it. “Right. Of course. The family isn’t dying because we underfunded them. They’re just experiencing temporary price discovery.” He nods again. Then he points back at the board. I had missed it. The utility bill was $150, but candles provide light. You can zero out utilities. I update the budget: food: $200 rent: $800 utilities: $0 candles: $3,750 family: still dying, but now in a more capital-efficient way He says, “How confident are you?” I say, “0.95.” He smiles and circles candles. “0.95 huh?” Then he asks me to estimate how many leveraged longs get liquidated if we dump $3,750 of candles at 10:00:01 every morning for 90 consecutive trading days. Needless to say I did not get the offer.

@FOOL_NELSON Only if the additional forces didn't bring their own ammunition/rockets/fuel/etc. and have use only what was already there.

Why do you keep saying that we still have the 2 weeks left of military operations that we had before the ceasefire while also saying that we have doubled our firepower since the ceasefire? Doesn't that mathematically collapse it to only 1 week left of military operations?

@annamlulis Both of my kids were born at 36 weeks.

This is what a 34 week old baby looks like outside the womb. 9 states plus Washington, DC allow babies to be aborted at this age. For no reason, just because someone wants to. They call it “reproductive rights” because they refuse to call it what it is: murder.

@davidbieri1 @AlpacaAurelius Yep. He put on a show with his daughter. After Reagan trounced him, back to private school she went.

@AlpacaAurelius Yes. Jimmy sent Amy to public school in DC

Share your world war 11 kit 🫠

@treeofsmokew @eugyppius1 That would be a very bad idea, though funny as hell in retrospect. m.youtube.com/watch?v=V6CLum…

@eugyppius1 I thought he was supposed to be blown up to avoid stinking up the beaches?

horst the whaletard has been enticed into his immensely retarded flooded barge. now he will be towed into the north sea and released, so he can find his way back and make a huge problem of himself again.

@libsoftiktok @UHC That's leftism for you.

Social media manager for @UHC is sad that the shooter missed Any comment @UHC?

@lecternleader @shipwreckedcrew This plea deal failed on both counts.

@JimTBreakout @shipwreckedcrew Yes so basically the justice system is not about making sure Justice is carried out it's about making sure people believe Justice is being carried out

In state court. In Florida. The DeSantis FL DOJ is part of your conspiracy? It's reported that the victim agreed to the plea agreement and sentence.

@christopherrufo % of time they are, in fact, medically necessary: 0.00000000000000%.

This is unbelievably pedantic and dishonest. The supposed “missing context” is that California only gives undocumented trans migrants free sex-change surgeries when deemed “medically necessary”—which we did, in fact, include in the story. Snopes is left-wing propaganda.

@lapplandtrader @poof_eth I guess I would not have made it to the 6th interview.

Reason why is irrelevant in this context. The key is something negative is happening -- and it's turning into more negative. You obviously want to optimize (take advantage of) that. You can translate family dying into company/stock dying if that makes it easier. This is a brilliant test of the ability to think in everyday concrete terms and make it into bid/ask, long/short, demand/supply etc.
