I compiled some thoughts on the strategic implications of Ukraine’s audacious “Operation Spiderweb” A lot of folks are talking about the immediate impact, but I wanted to focus on how this strike will reverberate globally. Unlocked for everyone. www.patreon.com/posts/130512...

I see him most days now, tucked into the greenery like a secret. He’s teaching me to slow down, stay present, let go, and let the sun hit my face a little longer. #nature #lizard #recovery 🦎

Good work, everyone.

Russia sent 407 drones and 38 missiles overnight to randomly murder civilians in Ukraine. This was a terrorist attack, and Donald Trump backs Putin in this just as he backs Netanyahu’s mass killings in Gaza. Fascism is terrorism. This is the real globalist cabal.

Russia has carried out more terrorist attacks on Kyiv, Ukraine, even targeting first responders who were trying to save victims. This is what Ukraine endures daily. Ukraine hits military equipment with 0 civilian casualties, Russia hits innocent men, women and children.

It just so happens that he was also Trump’s lawyer, so he can’t reveal anything that would hurt his client Trump without facing disbarment.

6 June 1944. This 54 year old general made the call knowing the potential implication. I can’t imagine the mental & emotional strain. And it’s so very hard to comprehend the sacrifices for a new future that were a result. We cannot waste what happened on that day.

81 years ago, America's bravest generation stormed the beaches of Normandy in hopes of freeing Europe from the clutches of a brutal authoritarian. Today, we face authoritarianism on our shores. We owe it to ourselves, our country, and that great generation to fight for freedom here at home.

Today is the day. Months of planning have led to this as we head to the National Mall for the Unite for Veterans rally. I am slated to be the last speaker. It will be a big day. My thoughts on the history and this moment.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) isn’t just a measure of inflation, it directly impacts Social Security checks, mortgage, federal aid, business contracts, and worker pay. It’s foundational to understanding how the economy is working for everyday Americans. But now? It’s becoming far less accurate.

Just gonna leave this here...

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk. I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.

Obviously a parody account 👉

All the worst people were fighting last night.

If you watch only one video today, let it be this one. Watch NYU Stern School of Business Professor Scott Galloway’s outstanding commentary on what prosperity and wealth should mean in America. His words could not be more on point and timely. Please pass it on.

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

On potential sanctions on Russia, Trump said: “When I see the moment where it’s not going to stop, we’re going to be very tough. And it could be on both countries.” "… So we are going to sanction Ukraine too. Makes sense. We need to punish them for defending themselves."

Sorry to step away from the catfight, but we’ve got a win! A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to dismantle AmeriCorps halting the termination of grants and its volunteer network!

As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...
