How does this make any sense?
 #new Elon Musk’s companies have built more than 150,000 private-sector jobs over the past decade, while Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rep. Rashida Tlaib have created zero measurable private-sector jobs in their entire professional careers.
#DC
In Austin, Texas, Tesla alone ended 2025 with 134,785 employees, up from 17,782 in 2016 - which is a net gain of more than 100,000 jobs at one company under Musk’s leadership as CEO and product architect.
🔺️Tesla: 134,785 employees as of year-end 2025
🔺️SpaceX: 20,000–22,000 employees and growing.
🔺️Neuralink, The Boring Company, X, and xAI: Several thousand and growing.
🔺️Total: 150,000+ private-sector jobs.
On the flip side, his biggest critics, who complain about his net worth and call him unintelligent, have spent at least the last 10 years on government payrolls (American tax dollars), and haven't created any private-sector jobs, have not contributed to the GDP and combined don't pay as much in taxes as Musk. They also haven't invented anything.
🔵Sen. Bernie Sanders: Career public official since 1981.
➡️Before that, odd jobs (carpenter, teacher, writer) and a small nonprofit filmstrip venture
He is a multi-millionaire who owns three houses, flies on private charters and rides in large SUVs.
🔵Sen. Elizabeth Warren: Harvard Law professor and bankruptcy specialist who is a multi-millionaire.
➡️She entered the Senate in 2013.
🔵Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Worked as a bartender and waitress before Congress (elected 2018).
➡️Now she collects taxpayer dollars to pay for her lifestyle.
🔵Rep. Rashida Tlaib: Public-interest attorney and Michigan state legislator before Congress (elected 2018).
➡️No accolades.
These are just a few of the many Democrats criticizing Elon Musk, a man who has brought immeasurable benefits, innovation, and technology to the United States.
He contributes measurably to the GDP, creates hundreds of thousands of jobs, and has pledged about $10 billion in SpaceX shares to American children.
Meanwhile, critics say, the Democrats' list of accolades rests on taking American tax dollars.
If private enterprise is the engine of job growth, why do the Democrats who criticize its most successful innovator have no track record of building anything themselves?

Embarrassing beyond words.
Ilhan Omar gets deported for immigration fraud. How did she ever get elected to Congress? What have we let our country degrade into?

At some point, ANY U.S. President was going to have to deal with the Iran problem.
Think of it like termites in your house.
You can ignore them because dealing with them is expensive and disruptive. But they don't disappear. They keep eating until the repair becomes FAR more expensive.
Iran wasn't a problem America could postpone forever.
President Trump chose to confront it before Iran could potentially operate under the protection of a nuclear weapon.
People can debate the timing, strategy and cost.
But sometimes the choice isn't between action and no consequences.
It's between paying a price NOW or potentially paying a much bigger price LATER.

There are doomers, mostly in the Massie and MTG lanes, telling you not to vote. Sit this one out. Let it burn. That is not a strategy. That is how you hand the field back to the people who broke it.
Yes, there are RINOs in the Republican Party. They slow-walk Trump. They protect the old club. They are the reason the reset of what the Democrats did to this country is taking longer than it should. Nobody serious is pretending otherwise.
Here is the part they leave out. MAGA, America First, and MAHA are not waiting on permission. They are taking the party seat by seat. School boards, state houses, primary challenges. It is slow because that is how a machine built over decades actually gets replaced. You do not clear it by staying home and posting.
Our founders did not get a working free nation in one election either. Fighting started in 1775. Independence was declared in 1776. The war ran eight years, to the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The Articles of Confederation failed. They drafted the Constitution in 1787, ratified it in 1788, and seated the new government in 1789. Fourteen years from the first shots to a republic that could stand. They kept showing up while it was unfinished.
So get out and vote Republican. Then, when the primaries come, take the RINOs out. General election is the line. Primary is the cleanup. Quit mid-fight and you do not punish the RINOs. You punish the country.

Ok, did you read the headline from the NY Post? Read it again & let it fully absorb and then read it again:
"Iran publishes propaganda letter urging US voters to punish Trump in midterm elections" -NY Post
It is not a good sign when the IRGC shifts from "Death to America" to "Vote Democratic." The IRGC is reportedly encouraging Americans to vote against the GOP in the midterms.
We have a Wartime Enemy ACTIVELY CAMPAIGNING FOR THE DEMOCRAT PARTY!
Let that sink in... The leading sponsor of TERRORISM for the last 50 years is ENDORSING the Democrat Party because they KNOW that the Democrats will help save their TERRORIST REGIME.
Tell me again... How do you VOTE for THAT PARTY?!

Pretend you give your kid $20 to buy a gallon of milk. When you ask for the change he says ‘it’s gone, I spent it all on milk.’ And when you ask for the receipt he says ‘oh I lost it.’
Now imagine instead of $20, it’s $1.3 billion. And instead of a kid, it’s the state childcare agency.
And instead of pretend, it actually happened.
This is the absurd reality of ‘unauditable’ childcare spending in WA state. Your federal tax dollars. Completely unaccounted for.
But don’t worry, DCYF says they spent it all on childcare.🙄

Greta swapped “the world ends in 2023” for a new boycott script and still lectures like the last deadline never missed.
If your worldview expires every election cycle, it’s not morality. It’s a brand.

A Few Fun Florida Facts:
I paid 0% state income tax ever since I moved to Florida 38 years ago.
Also, groceries, prescription medicine, and gasoline are sales tax exempt in the state.
But wait, there's more.
From July 20th - August 20th, Floridians get a back to school sales tax holiday on most school supplies and school related clothing.
Last but least, for the second year in a row, we get a sales tax holiday on qualifying guns, ammo, and camping supplies.
This year it runs from September 1st through December 31st.
Seahawks schedule. They don’t play today because they played Monday night football this past Wednesday. Normally Monday night football means you play the next Sunday unless Monday night falls on Wednesday. Got it!

What if everyone bitching about Washington State politics registered 10 conservative voters who don’t vote anymore before November elections? And followed up to get them to vote. Would things change? Yes indeed.

ELON MUSK: “My political views are very centrist. They’re not far right. Frankly, calling them far right is an insult to history and an insult to many people. It is an outrageous falsehood. It’s completely absurd. I have literally stated my position, and I’ve been very clear about this: there need to be secure borders.
If there’s an influx of immigrants, then they need to be people who agree with Western ideals and Western values. If there is long-term growth of people who do not, or in some cases are adamantly opposed to Western values, you are setting yourself up for civil war. This is obvious. A child can see this, but this is not a right wing view. I'm simply stating reality.”

When the Seattle Times disables its comment section, it's a huge middle finger to readers.
Because it has nothing to with "sensitive" subject matter, and everything to do with shutting down dissent. My latest.

Thinking about sitting out the MIDTERMS because you're frustrated, disappointed or convinced your vote doesn't matter?
Fine.
But understand what you're choosing.
You're not sitting politics out.
You're handing the decision to everyone who DOES show up - and then living with what THEY choose.
For the next 2 years, Congress can shape:
• Taxes and spending
• Immigration and border policy
• Energy and healthcare
• Defense and foreign policy
• Investigations and oversight
• Which nominees get confirmed
State elections can shape your schools, policing, regulations, taxes, prosecutors, judges and the environment your business operates in.
Politics isn't just television.
It's your mortgage.
Your energy bill.
Your business costs.
Your child's school.
Your neighborhood.
Your job.
Your future.
Your faith.
And some election consequences last far longer than 2 years.
Senators serve 6 years.
Federal judges can serve for life.
Laws can survive multiple presidents.
So be angry.
Be disappointed.
Hold politicians accountable.
But don't confuse sitting out with escaping the consequences.
You still pay the taxes.
You still obey the laws.
Your children inherit the country.
Your grandchildren may inherit the consequences.
You can sit out an election.
You cannot sit out what happens AFTER it.
And if you're a Republican, you get SCREWED sideways because you will still FOLLOW whatever law the majority locks in. So why not be a part of that process despite EVERYTHING that's been told to you.
If I were you, I'd Repost this post. You don't have to. Just saying..
