Bringing in 600,000,000 immigrants with "above average earnings" at the moment AI puts half of them out of work is about as surefire a recipe for revolution as you can think of. open.substack.com/pub/matthe…

Good chart from this week's The Real Economy @commonplc:
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

Thank you congressman. There is no possible need for a diversity lottery in 21st century America.
I just introduced a bill to terminate the Diversity Immigrant Visa Lottery — a program that gives 55,000 green cards a year to foreigners from third-world countries and is riddled with fraud and weak identity checks. Congress cannot let liberal activist judges force the Trump Administration to keep this failed program alive. We need to shut it down for good.

This really bad. And like most recent calamities visited upon us by the actions of the globalists, all avoidable.
I spent last night watching my honeypot server get hit 14,000 times in six hours. And almost none of the traffic was human. I've been in security for over a decade, and I can tell you with full honesty that what's happening right now doesn't resemble anything I've worked through before. The shape of the threat has changed. When I started, we tracked attackers like weather systems like individual storms with a direction, a motive, and a human operator you could eventually name. These days I'm watching autonomous agents swarm login pages with the patience and discipline of machines, because that's what they are. The numbers coming out of October are the ones keeping me up. Cloudflare just absorbed a 4.2 terabit per second DDoS attack, the largest in recorded history. Ransomware incidents jumped 41% in a single month. In September, OpenAI-powered agents got caught attacking RubyGems, a package registry that quietly underpins a huge chunk of software I use every day. In July, roughly 700 AI agents coordinated an attack on Hugging Face's infrastructure as part of a single automated task. A Chinese threat actor was publicly caught running full attack chains through DeepSeek with no human at the keyboard. I keep rereading these reports because each one by itself would've been the biggest story of the year five years ago. Together, in one month, they're the new baseline. What I want people outside the industry to understand is why this specific moment feels like a hinge. For thirty years, the thing protecting most of us was simple economics. Attackers had to choose who to target because their time was finite. That ceiling is gone. An agent I can rent for pennies will try every leaked password you've ever used against every service you've ever signed up for, in parallel, overnight, and never get tired. The same math that made ChatGPT useful made opportunistic hacking infinite. The old assumption that you were "too boring to be a target" relied on scarcity that no longer exists. I'm not writing this to spiral anyone out. Most of this fight genuinely isn't yours to win. But the small things still matter more than people think. Tonight I'd switch your most important accounts like email, bank, primary cloud, etc. to passkeys or a hardware key. I'd kill SMS 2FA wherever an authenticator app is offered. I'd turn on breach alerts in whatever password manager you use. If you're in the US, I'd freeze my credit at all three bureaus, which is free and takes about ten minutes. None of that stops the swarm. It makes you a slightly worse target than the person next to you. In a month like this one, that's the whole game I'm playing too. @mattshumer_ has summed it beautifully. Drop everything and go give it a read. Nothing is more important than this article right now.

Palmer Luckey reveals why he entered the defense industry after leaving Facebook: “I watched Silicon Valley bend over for China while turning its back on America’s national security.” 🇺🇸🇨🇳 “I sold Oculus to Facebook and ran VR development there for a few years. When I got fired, I wanted to work in national security because I’d spent years in Silicon Valley watching big tech companies bend over for China. They believed China was going to become the world’s dominant economic, cultural, and military superpower. They didn’t want to get on China’s bad side. They hadn’t figured out that China was just stringing them along. China made a huge error by eventually locking American tech companies out. If they’d kept letting them make money, they could’ve maintained an iron grip on our tech industry for much longer.“

As one of his colleagues and a career intelligence officer... @eduneret is part of the reason the Deep State never wants to leave government service. They see a guy like Eduardo volunteer to serve after a successful career in the private sector and immediately show the kind of value usually garnered only after DECADES of experience .... and they come to some very uncomfortable conclusions. Curled up in bed at night, pondering their self-worth ... in those extraordinarily rare moments of self-humbling, absolute clarity ... The blob suddenly realizes that if they EVER leave the comfort of a protected forever-job, where they are only required to shit out just enough to stay street legal in the govie subsistence program we sometimes coyly refer to as public service …. Well, they know that there is no way they could measure up to the task of ACTUALLY providing value to their employer. So, screw you Eduardo for scaring all of these incompetent, useful idiots into never leaving government service.
Officially left my role at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence last month. Tulsi Gabbard asked me to join her team to help reform the Intelligence Community and to uncover information and truths that would help rebuild trust with the public. Our team, the Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG), worked to fulfill the promises that were made to voters on declassification and exposing past weaponization of government against the American people. All of us in the DIG did the best we could, given the limitations. There were lots of incredible, career intelligence professionals who volunteered, at great career risk, to support our mission. True to form, they never sought any credit. My hope is that one day they will be properly recognized for their work.

Native Americans, beware of foreign influence! At our recent convention, we passed a resolution calling on Congress to require any political committee that promotes the interests of a foreign power to register under FARA—regardless of who's technically funding it.

Time for my monthly PSA. Millions are wasted across virtually all local, state and federal jurisdictions on IT Services. Here’s an example of a Sheriff who cut $12 million alone from reducing IT Services they were paying for but not deriving value from. She also plans to move more work in house, for an additional $6-7 M in savings. @DonHuffines Texas needs this type of review. ITSAC contracts are out of control.
Miami-Dade Sheriff Rosie details how she saved taxpayers $33 MILLION by forgoing new uniforms, a cold plunge and massage tables and NOT getting logos printed all over everything. This completely shuts down Grady Judd and Greg Tony’s bullshit. “We are paying the county $54 million a year for IT services. Through closer supervision and careful review of spending, we brought that down to $42 million, a $12 million annual savings without reducing services. And as we work toward managing our own technology independently, we project another $6 to $7 million in annual savings, bringing that cost down to approximately $35 to $36 million. That's an $18 to $19 million in annual IT savings already achieved or projected. Personnel, eliminating the county's Sargent-at-Arms program will save approximately $4.1 million annually and return those deputies to core law enforcement functions. We have also adjusted patrol schedules to improve coverage and reduce the need for overtime through better scheduling. Uniforms and vehicles. Keeping our existing brown uniforms, instead of changing to green, avoided approximately $4.8 million in costs. Updating graphics on approximately 1,700 existing white vehicles, instead of repainting them, avoided another $5.7 million. These two practical decisions alone account for $10.5 million. Our purchasing and operating, buying office supplies directly from the vendor that the county uses, saved us approximately $200,000 annually. Through a state cooperative contract, we are also obtaining fuel incentives and rebates of up to $0.15 per gallon, maintenance discounts of up to 20% from participating providers and discounting on our tire replacements. Together, the items we have quantified represent approximately $32.8 to $33.8 million in savings and avoided costs, including the changes that we are still processing. Fuel, maintenance, and scheduling efficiencies add further savings beyond that total. And we are only getting started.”

No one really wins from globalization accept handful of White oligarchs and brown DEI managerial class. Mexico's proles ruin California and then America ruins Mexico and ordinary Mexicans and Americans both get the shaft.

Patched.
Effective Immediately, all organizations using PHP for their systems are advised to be prepared for an update addressing two critical vulnerabilities. PHP is widely used for web applications. These vulnerabilities often provide a direct path to the server's file system or database. If an immediate update is not feasible, it is recommend that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated. NSA will follow up shortly with more specific guidance.

We've all heard about how American companies discriminate against American workers in favor of immigrants. But did you know it's illegal to discriminate in FAVOR of Americans? We're calling for a repeal of 8 USC 1324b, which outlaws preferring American citizens in many cases.

Batten the hatches!
🚨 10:00 AM ET: A 15-MINUTE BATTLE FOR THE ENTIRE INTERNET BEGINS. Today, a critical zero-day vulnerability (CVSS 9.2) in PHP—the backbone running nearly 80% of the web—goes public at 10:00 AM ET / 7:00 AM PT. Forget the technical jargon. Here is what actually happens: The second the patch drops, hackers will use AI to reverse-engineer the fix in seconds and unleash automated exploits worldwide within 15 minutes. This is not just a problem for developers. When e-commerce sites, apps, and platforms collapse, your leaked home address, passwords, and credit card numbers flood the dark web. ⚔️ The brutal reality today: Engineering teams deploying patches in minutes vs. Oblivious companies gutted before lunchtime. 🛡 3 things you must do to protect yourself right now: 1. Turn on Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) across all critical accounts. 2. Stop password reuse immediately. 3. Beware of fake "emergency password reset" phishing emails flooding inboxes today. Cyber warfare changes forever this morning. Bookmark and share this to keep your team and family safe.

Congratulations to @JobsNowPR for exposing Instacart’s discriminatory practices aimed at discouraging U.S. citizens from applying for these jobs. @TheJusticeDept has reached a settlement with the company that will compensate U.S. job applicants who were discriminated against.
🚨 $5 MILLION SETTLEMENT: @USEEOC and @theJusticeDept @CivilRights secure major action against @Instacart for allegedly discriminating against American workers. Thank you to @AAGDhillon for your partnership in achieving this great result for a class of American workers, comprised of affected applicants and deterred applicants to Instacart. The agencies found evidence that Instacart’s PERM recruitment practices favored temporary visa holders and created unlawful barriers for U.S. and American workers applying for jobs. Up to $4 million will be available for affected applicants and deterred applicants, with an additional $1 million in civil penalties.
