Sorry guys, no rebuilding your fancy houses that burned down by the ocean in LA until there’s a new crack den installed right in the middle of the neighborhood. The area is like D+43; this seems fair. I don’t make the rules 🤷‍♂️.

This looks highly suspect, and worthy of more attention than it's gotten. It now seems clear that dozens of agents and multiple agencies were involved in egging on extremists. "It's classified," is not a good enough answer - our democracy needs details to rebuild trust.

1/ States and cities are hiding trillions in debt through accounting tricks that would land private sector CEOs in jail. Time to expose the scandal. To stop crony leaders from hiding massive debts, the incoming administration might fix our misguided govt accounting standards.

“Asylum”. Millions used “human rights” to enter and get free stuff, but it’s a giant scam, perpetrated by far-left NGOs et al. They facilitate fake claims with billions in funding from leftist politicians and bureaucrats who run EU and the USA, regardless of election results.

Aren’t you the guy who posted “make American planes crash again” and called non-Muslims “cattle”? It’s not a ‘phobia’. Millions rationally despise you - we know the lies, schemes, and grave danger to our civilization your radical ilk represents. This is a war we will not lose.

This sounds concerning.

Yes.

Why have so many of the top builders in the tech world left the Democratic Party? Maybe because it’s become the stupid party, and is promoting idiocracy.

Great to see more of my successful friends in tech having the courage to speak out against destructive “equity” initiatives of the radical left. Our civilization will continue to innovate and prosper only if we courageously speak up against these radicals, and embrace merit.

One of many recently jailed for FB comments in the UK, sentenced by the leftist judge (who meanwhile let a child rapist go with NO jail time!), had said that “civil war is here.” This apparently justified his sentence. Interesting. They are VERY afraid of you.

Every US state needs a massive administrative DOGE. These aren’t just fake jobs - they tend to spread ideological activism, and corrupt our children and our culture. But is there a single red state with the courage to cut school administrators?

Let’s not mince words: a corrupt, hard-left deep state has been in charge. The bureaucracy ran wild. Thank goodness we have bold, competent outsiders coming in to clean up the mess 🇺🇸.

I’ve been looking forward to this week. I invested time, money, and reputation convincing powerful friends of the dangers and corruption of the American left and the damage being done to our citizens, culture, and institutions. I encouraged them to speak up and call for reform. … We are about to witness a patriotic fireworks show of action unlike anything we have seen in D.C.; for many conservatives, this is the most exciting policy week of our lives. … To some, this day of triumph might seem the wrong time to sound a note of caution. But history reminds us that the seeds of self-destruction can be sown at the moment of our greatest victories. … Courage is a strength of the new administration. For many of my friends, it took courage to speak out against problems in society and in favor of Trump. If we speak with the same principles and courage we brought to the 2024 campaign, I’m confident the checks on the presidency will remain resilient, so that all our children and grandchildren inherit a nation of laws, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

“An Afghani interpreter I have come to know well over the years was hung in the streets last night. They melted his DoD ID into his chest. Cut off his arms. And killed his family. His 10 year old daughter was spared and handed off to leadership.” (From a note to my friend)

For the first time in my lifetime, a lot of successful Jewish friends called me worried this week - names we all know - asking what is going to happen as these libels re-enter the mainstream, and are shared by millions. Sadly, Tucker, Rogan, Candace Owens, and others platformed slanderous conspiracies and blood libel to tens of millions of followers - maybe they all know it, maybe one or two of them are just naive and don't get it. Personally, I'm not a victim, I'm a fighter, but we know our family history, and we didn't just die in the Holocaust. Jews as a successful "outsider" minority have been hunted and murdered for centuries based on libelous anti-Semitic tropes that implied that we wanted to hurt Christians or were scheming against them. My great-grandparents and great-great-grandparents and their siblings around eastern Europe each grew up facing commonplace rape and slaughter fueled by similar lies, long before our grandparents' generation was systematically exterminated. Lucky for me, the Jewish branch of my family escaped to the USA by 1920. If you don't believe we're dealing with extreme anti-Semites and insane conspiracy theorists, just look at this quote tweet from an account with more followers than me and the replies - or the replies my post is sure to garner. Or thousands of other accounts this week, innocently asking why Jews don't care about Christian deaths around the world (we do, and Israel has worked to protect Christians, as should the USA). Many accounts are obsessed with Jews being tied to communists. I'm about as strong a fighter against Communism as you can find, not least with my work with the Reagan Library, but it's true, in response to being beat the crap out of by various regimes including the Tsar in Russia (it was once said of him he had no religion, but if he did, it was anti-Semitism) - many Jews ~120 years ago became communists. I don't excuse it - Communism is not just misguided, but applying it is evil and wrong. But it's not some wacky conspiracy, the history makes it obvious what happened and how this reaction occurred. Today, the majority of Jews have learned why that philosophy was evil, as have others: and millions of us fight for liberty and our constitution in the USA as fellow citizens. As did many Jews at the founding of the USA. It's a red herring to say you can't criticize Israel. I criticize them all the time, as do most Jews, in fact; we have a lot of opinions, and it's a horrible, complex situation that Israel as a whole generally faces with dignity and strength. But age-old blood libels of Jews wanting to hurt Christians are false, totally inappropriate, and also weird in the context of the fact that it's Islamists slaughtering hundreds of Christians and forcing them out of many areas as we speak. Jews and Christians are natural allies, and our civilization prospers when we stand up for each other and our shared values. Our enemies hope to drive us apart, but our shared understanding of the radical equal dignity of all human life and associated values led to the enlightenment and to our prosperity in the west. Our alliance is too strong for any of this nonsense to destroy.

My friend Sriram is America First. For USA to have the highest standard of living, generous govt services, and strongest military, we need to recruit the best and brightest and build the best companies. I’m against more low-end H1B immigrants; but let’s win at the talent game.

Well said. A couple friends texted me today about the due process and rule of law issues around USA’s immigration (/Biden admin alien invasion) situation, and I shared JD’s post with my reply. Context is critical for this one. And USA needs to start deporting at scale ASAP.

Palantir’s not a “database”; it’s a platform created by 1000s of the most talented and patriotic Americans to partner with our DoD to stop attacks and defeat bad guys, while protecting liberty & privacy. In a sad turn of events, the retard account itself is, in fact, retarded.

Yikes. Truly bizarre. Do any Trump supporters on my feed agree with Trump on this, or is it obvious to all of us that this is a “lying bully” aspect of his personality? He is flailing and lashing out, as Gov DeSantis just broke the fundraising record for hard money in 24 hrs.

NO Joe R, this is a lie. Spreading blood libels is WRONG. We know those giving the aid; they’re attacked b/c they go around Hamas, which can’t steal from it. It’s Hamas’ interest to spread this lie, and obviously not in Israel’s interest for alternate aid sites to be attacked.

I love President Trump; this is possibly the greatest admin of my lifetime - except for these pardons. If I’m calling balls and strikes, these are hit-by-pitches!! POTUS has been terribly advised on this; it makes it look like massive fraud is happening around him in this area.

I don’t get it - the adults are back in charge, why doesn’t NYC work with ICE and deport the illegals out of their free hotels? Or else why aren’t we arresting whomever stands in our way to enforce the law? Clean it up. What’s the hold up?

Wow. This is messed up. For the record, a ton of Jews, including me, are fiercely against what is being done to Christians all over the world by Muslim extremists. If I was in charge, we’d wipe out these terrorists, and bias to leaders who keep them safe - the west and our principles win when Christians prevail vs savagery. It’d be easy to protect more Christians in Africa, too, and we should. (The fact that USAID was funding nonsense while ignoring their plight is insane). But the implications here are grotesque and, yes, highly tied to anti-Semitic tropes to lash out at Bari and others. Not okay. And calling what’s going on in Gaza a “neocon” project - and trying to tie it in the populist mind to something anti-Christian and to Iraq, is weird and inaccurate - the conspiracy thinking has gone too far. It’s clear he’s been talking to haters, and I hope he’ll chat and learn from other views, or allow a smart person to debate him on the other side of this.
