So gratifying to hear! So many of us are following the Afrikaner journeys with hope and enthusiasm. While it is heartbreaking to be chased from your homeland, we are glad you are quickly getting back on your feet and thriving. One question-now your son is earning pay in USD, is he still shocked by the prices?

Son’s accomplishments this week has brought me so much peace. It might seem so small to many, but to us, the big things are always found in the littlest of achievements. He earned his driver’s license, received his very first paycheck, and was soooooo chuffed that he is paying taxes. He celebrated by taking Mama out for pie and coffee, a simple moment that meant the world to us. Now “we” are out car and house hunting, stepping into this exciting new chapter, beginning again, but this time, he has the freedom to do and become whatever he wants to. (He has given himself 2 years to own his own ranch). We are filled with immense gratitude to @POTUS and the American people. 🇺🇸❤️ Americans have been so incredibly welcoming and helpful to him every step of the way, even two liberals have warmed up to him and shown real kindness, one cutie offering to show him around. Your leadership, strength, and support for families like ours have opened doors and created these opportunities for us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are truly blessed to be part of this great nation, we know it, and will never, ever take any of this for granted, especially the generosity of the American people. 🙏❤️ We are not here to take.

@RynoJvVuuren Love your attitude. You will be fine, and America will be better for it.

Moving to a better location today, closer to the city. This afternoon my first interview. Even if I don't get the job, I'll apply for more. Getting my phone today. Working at achieving my goals. I get it, sometimes things will be hard. Life ain't easy. Watch this space, I'm living my American dream. Thank you America. 🫡🇺🇲

@popped_blog Wonderful!! We are so glad to have great people like you here to share our country with!

🚨 Refugee Programme Update 🚨 47th day in the USA * Super busy day. We did our first solo trip to our nearest food bank 🍱 The organization we're registered with works slightly differently in that they prepack a grocery selection for each household based on how many people live with you. You're allowed to visit the pantry once a week but in all honesty, even as a solo case, thr quantity they provide in your 'weekly groceries'is waaay too much 🧺 and will last me at least 2 weeks, maybe more. It was packed with meat 🥩, breads🍞, pastries🥐, dairy🥛, and tons of fresh veg🫛 and fruit 🫒 and then a few yummy sweet treats too🍰. * Then we headed off to one of the national NPOs (Women's Resource Center) who have numerous amazing programmes across the country for women, like free online courses, conferences, employment assistance, coaching/mentoring and then their "Career Closet" option where you can select 5 full work outfits, blazers, shoes, accessories👠👜🧥👗👚, etc once every 6 months to help you get started as a Refugee beginning your employment journey in your new home country. * There's one point I didn't share in my update yesterday that I've really felt compelled to share with you guys today. I had been looking for a church⛪ to call home, but hadn't started attending services because of the busyness of my first 5 weeks here it had kind of been placed on the back-burner. BUT, last week it was really heavy on my heart❤️ to go this past Sunday, so I went to one in a nearby neighborhood. The message shared will prove just how completely God's hand is upon our lives🤍. The message for the day centered around Genesis 12:1-4: "The LORD had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”" 🤍🙏✝️ Key points for the day 1. Game planned with one of the other refugees who will take over helping new arrivals on the ground once I start work next week. As always, drop your questions in the comments or pop me a DM🤍 Disclaimer: views expressed are not official and are merely an opinion based on my own research/experience and/or feedback from other Programme participants and will always be subject to change as I receive more info

Who do we buy those millions of panels from? China? That will end well. China is using the panels their industry is producing on an orgy of production without a care for actual demand. By some estimates Chinese solar panel production is 3x the global demand. The only reason prices are collapsing and why non Chinese manufacturers are going bankrupt . This is the same playbook being used in the EV industry.

And it’s accelerating rapidly

@popped_blog Congratulations on the new job! So happy folks like your selves are here in the US. So sorry about the trolls

🚨 Refugee Programme Update 🚨 44th Day in the USA * Not sure if I'm over stimulated from all the excitement the last 2 days, but I haven't slept well AT ALL for the last 2 nights 🫩. I've been having nightmares again, waking up in a panic 2 or 3 times throughout the night, and even though I logically know that I had locked up before I went to bed 🛏️, I have to get up and make sure all my doors and windows are secured🔒. The PTSD is real but it's definitely got a LOT better and only comes in waves every now and then these days. * Even with the really shitty night's sleep, I woke up with an incredible sense of peace and calm ✝️ and knew exactly what I needed to do, so I accepted that job and then sent out the mails 📨 withdrawing from the other 4 roles I was busy interviewing for. * Headed downtown to my new employers' in the morning to take my passport, EAD and social security card to them for scanning and uploading onto their systems 🖥️ and by the time I got home I had received my "congratulations on your new role with XXXX"🎉 email and the various links to update all of my info and banking details 🏦 and tax forms etc. You guys would be so proud of me, I completed all of my federal forms on my own and didn't need to call my CW once 😁 * The weather is a bit shitty today ⛈️ but I'm hoping for a bit of rondloopery for you guys as I have a couple of errands to run before I start the new job. Key points for the day 1. Most of my 'admin' is now done, the only thing left is my Florida ID which I'll do this week. As always, if you have any specific topics you want me to cover or questions - now is the time julle, once I start working I won't be so readily available on X - drop them in the comments or pop me a DM.

@wks4n @DropSiteNews @AnnelleSheline The media you rely is lying thru its teeth and making you look like a blithering idiot!

@DropSiteNews @AnnelleSheline This is just more proof that ICE has been given the power to take anyone they want off the streets. We’re living in dangerous and frightening times.

An Irish immigrant with a valid US work permit has been held in ICE detention in Texas for nearly five months despite having no criminal record, the Irish Times reports. Seamus Culleton, who has lived in the US for over 20 years, is married to a US citizen and was in the final stages of a green card application when he was arrested in September. He describes detention conditions akin to a “concentration camp,” limited access to outdoors, and constant hunger. A judge initially approved his release on bond, but the US government later blocked it. His lawyer says the case is highly unusual and reflects arbitrary enforcement by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE did not respond with comment on the story at the time of publication.

@neeratanden @TPCarney Stop playing innocent! Eric Holder has been banging this drum for over 10 years and you know it! Before Texas there was Illinois and New York, even California was 43-9 before Prop 50.

The most principled position here is to support a national ban on partisan Gerrymandering. Also principled is criticizing Republicans for starting this in Texas. A world where just the GOP gerrymanders is worse for democracy than both sides fighting to a basic draw. I don't get how you don't see this

These guys so hate starting fights and then losing them. They can't believe Dems have the temerity to respond in kind. Here's a tip: Don't start fights you don't want to lose.

The main issue is that Democrats have built themselves a turnout machine. By weapon, Ing the voting roles they have tons of inactive voters on there, which can be harvested by NGO. They have built themselves a machine that can win most special elections. I suspect they will do the same in the midterms. Also, the issue is the Republicans, have to do the same use mail invalid, ballot harvest thing when this midterm

@acoyne This nitwit calls himself - it figures.

My cousin showed me this picture. She said: with the arms hanging down like that, he looks like an orangutan. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

@TerryMoran Terry, still trotting out that tired Obama stat when you know it’s very misleading. This is why no one trusted when you were at Abc

Barack Obama deported more than 3 million people from this country while he was president. No masked gangs descending on neighborhoods, snatching ordinary working people from their cars and disappearing them, storming homes without judicial warrants. This is just force, not law.

@amuse What happened to the dog in the rear passenger seat? Im very concerned.

ICE WATCH: Did the ICE Watch activists who trained Renee Good and her wife tell them the police would use rubber bullets? Renee’s wife seems shocked they used real bullets. We need her recordings from her phone.

@iAnonPatriot Imagine these very unimpressive people having real power - that’s nightmare of socialism/communism.

Zohran Mamdani’s advisers plan for socialized housing.. “Housing will be owned by a collective and everyone will be paying 30% of their income, in order to live in their housing.” “If someone makes $0 per year, they live for free — if someone makes $500k per year, they’re paying 30% of that.” Insanity.

@BasedMikeLee @nickshirleyy How about Congress gets rid of baseline budgeting that automatically grow spending yearly and label reduced growth as a cut. I’d like to go to zero based budgeting but this Congress would have a coronary at that notion.

In light of our $38 trillion debt and the startling fraud uncovered by @nickshirleyy (just the tip of the federal-funding fraud iceberg), Congress should aggressively reform its approach to spending your money—especially as to matters that aren’t clearly within Congress’s enumerated powers By “aggressively reform,” I mean “approach such matters with a strong presumption *against* federal funding” Repost if you agree

@RyanShowlive @SenSanders There’s no $79 trillion , that is fixed pie communist math

@SenSanders $79 trillion siphoned to the top 1% is more than a statistic ,it’s a warning. Innovation should be rewarded, not exploited. A wealth tax isn’t just fair, it’s necessary to restore balance and give the majority a real shot at prosperity

Since 1975, $79 trillion in wealth has been redistributed from the bottom 90% to the top 1% — a 1% that now owns more wealth than the bottom 93%. We can respect innovation & entrepreneurship, but we cannot respect the extraordinary greed that now exists. We need a wealth tax.

@SusieWiles Susie, it’s time to go back to being anonymous. Dear God, what were you thinking!!?

The article published early this morning is a disingenuously framed hit piece on me and the finest President, White House staff, and Cabinet in history. Significant context was disregarded and much of what I, and others, said about the team and the President was left out of the story. I assume, after reading it, that this was done to paint an overwhelmingly chaotic and negative narrative about the President and our team. The truth is the Trump White House has already accomplished more in eleven months than any other President has accomplished in eight years and that is due to the unmatched leadership and vision of President Trump, for whom I have been honored to work for the better part of a decade. None of this will stop our relentless pursuit of Making America Great Again!

@cwebbonline @cook_fish_farm “Feed costs are global “ whaa!! That’s bs and you know it.

@cook_fish_farm Beef is especially sensitive because cattle feed costs are global. Processing is consolidated into a few massive corporations, and any disruption gets priced in very quickly.

Tyson is shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant in January 2026. That’s 3,200 workers gone in one shot, the largest plant shutdown in company history. Blame Trump’s tariff chaos and the lowest cattle inventories in decades. Tariffs jack up costs. Supply shrinks. Plants close. Towns hollow out. This single closure wipes out nearly 5% of the nation’s daily beef capacity. Add another 1,700 jobs lost in Amarillo, Texas, and it’s obvious what’s happening: the beef supply is under stress and workers are eating the fallout.

@DrOzCMS Sue Minnesota and any other state that allowed fraud using federal monies.

You’ve probably heard the news by now: Minnesota fraudsters stole over $1 billion from Medicaid. And you deserve an explanation. Our staff at CMS told me they’ve never seen anything like this in Medicaid — and everyone from Gov. Tim Walz on down needs to be investigated, because they’ve been asleep at the wheel. Based on what we know now, this is a clear dereliction of duty. First, the facts: In recent years, Minnesota Medicaid launched several new programs, including Housing Stabilization Services, which helped disabled homeless individuals, and Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention, which reimbursed therapy costs for families with autistic children. Some bad actors in Minnesota’s Somali community decided to game the system. And when they got away with it, they decided to go bigger. The housing program was supposed to cost $2.6 million dollars annually. Last year, it paid out over $100 million. The autism program ballooned from $3 million in 2018 to nearly $400 million in 2023. These scammers used stolen taxpayer money to buy flashy cars, purchase overseas real estate, and offer kickbacks to parents who enrolled their kids at fake autism treatment centers. Some of it may have even made its way to the Somalian terrorist group Al-Shebab. So why didn’t Walz stop them? That’s simple: because he went all-in on identity politics. Somalis are a huge voting bloc, and the state’s leaders were afraid that “forcefully tackling this issue might cause political backlash.” That’s not me saying that. It’s a Somali-American fraud investigator who talked to The New York Times. Somali scammers get rich off the programs Gov. Walz was supposed to be managing. Minnesota politicians get elected with Somali votes and keep the money flowing. This isn’t just fraud: it’s political patronage at public expense. When Minnesota told CMS about the problem last year, they assured us they’d handle it. By summer, it was obvious they couldn’t — or wouldn’t. So, we stepped in and shut down the worst program: housing. We also froze provider enrollment in a few of the most abused programs. So where do we go from here? To restore the integrity of the Medicaid program, Minnesota must: 1. Provide CMS with weekly updates on how the state is stopping fraud. 2. Freeze enrollment of all high-risk providers for 6 months. 3. Confirm all providers in place are legitimate or remove them. 4. Send CMS a corrective action plan of how these will prevent this from happening again. If we’re unsatisfied with the state’s plans or cooperation, we’ll stop paying the federal share of these programs. The message to Walz is clear: either fix this in 60 days or start looking under your couch for spare change, because we’re done footing the bill for your incompetence. With CMS on the case, these scammers and their bureaucratic enablers have nowhere left to hide. The vulnerable Americans who depend on these programs — and the taxpayers who fund them — deserve the truth.

@honestpollster Looks like a complaint in search of a metric.

Any economists? This is the kind of stuff Republicans and the White House should be talking about. If you steal this concept, give me credit.

@HannibalsTies @The_Feminist_TM Wow, you escalated fast! Hit a nerve?

@The_Feminist_TM Weird how I never see them post this when a man takes a picture with his fish or the animal he killed. Hate when women are present on camera and yet, every single one of them furiously consumes porn. They just hate seeing women when they're not being degraded for his pleasure.

Woman: “here’s a picture of me sitting in my office doing what I love” Idiot: “wow can’t believe she included herself in that picture”

Why cant we pay workers (all workers) more in stock than cash.? That way they have a portfolio that grows over time rather than just being spent. Doesn’t have company stock, it could be index funds. We need to turn ordinary Americans into asset holders, not wage slaves. This is the only answer to creeping socialism.

@besttrousers We can have tax incentives to prevent excessive automation, as opposed to the use of AI for increasing human capability. Acemoglu work speaks to that.

We need regulations that prevent companies from using AI to eliminate jobs to extract greater profits. Artists at these companies need to have a say in how AI is deployed. They should share in the profits. And there should be a tax on mass displacement.
