The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act is a federal law that aims to fight organized crime and racketeering in the United States. We passed these laws, NOW USE THEM against malicious politicians and bureaucrats who have been stealing taxpayer funds to further their criminal activities.

From the way everyone is reacting, you’d think Jensen strangled his three babies to death and then blamed it on postpartum psychosis.

WOOOOOOOW! Way to go Texas! Did you know that she was going to do this before you voted for her? So just a heads up to the 40 THOUSAND employees at Tesla and SpaceX in Texas, you better start updating your resumes people because this b**** is going to cost you your jobs.

You’ve got to hand it to Elon. He’s practically immune to honeypots. Send in a beautiful spy and she’ll end up with a baby before she obtains any secrets.

No jodas con Bukele.
El 18 de octubre, cuatro técnicos de aviación salvadoreños, personal de apoyo, no combatientes, dedicados a evacuaciones médicas, iban de regreso al campamento después de comprar comida en Croix-des-Bouquets, cerca de Puerto Príncipe. Estaban dentro de la Fuerza de Supresión de Pandillas respaldada por la ONU. Los pandilleros haitianos les emboscaron el vehículo blindado con ráfagas y explosivos. El coche se incendió. Los cuatro salieron a pie y desaparecieron en territorio controlado por bandas.
Tres días después, Bukele publicó un mensaje en creol haitiano dirigido directamente a los jefes de las pandillas: el único objetivo es recuperarlos vivos y sin un rasguño. Si no, les advirtió que ya acabó con las pandillas en El Salvador y que puede acabar con ellos también. No negoció. No pidió mediación. Ordenó una operación militar.
En días llegaron primero las fuerzas especiales y después el grueso. Para finales de octubre El Salvador tenía unos 2.000 soldados en Haití, más que toda la fuerza internacional que ya estaba allí. Estados Unidos les prestó aviones C-130 para el traslado, Colombia y República Dominicana ayudaron con la logística, y Trump le dijo algo como “haz lo que tengas que hacer”. El primer ministro haitiano Alix Didier Fils-Aimé coordinó por teléfono, declaró la recuperación de los cuatro como prioridad absoluta y ha dicho públicamente que las tropas extranjeras están para apoyar al Estado haitiano, no para sustituirlo. Ambos lados niegan que sea una invasión: es un arreglo bilateral. La ONU ha aclarado que la gran mayoría de estos soldados no opera bajo el mandato formal de la fuerza de la ONU, así que no están bajo su cadena de mando ni bajo sus mecanismos de supervisión.
Mientras tanto las operaciones avanzan, se ha recuperado el vehículo quemado, han muerto pandilleros y los cuatro siguen desaparecidos. Las bandas pidieron mediación de la ONU. Bukele, de momento, no parece interesado en sentarse a negociar con ellos.
Eso es lo que pasa cuando secuestras a gente de Bukele.

Nothing says an age of rage like running on a beat down. Democrat Richard Ojeda, who was just elected to Congress, has declared that he would be "happy to go to jail" if he has a chance to physically assault the incoming Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.

Hi to the people who voted for Democrats… let me explain to you what just happened today.
The stock market just crashed hard. The Nasdaq dropped over 5%, the S&P fell more than 4%, and trillions of dollars disappeared in one day. Investors sold because they believe the Democrats who just won will slow down AI and block new data centers.
AI has been one of the main things driving the economy and stock market higher. When people think that growth is about to get slowed or paused, they pull their money out. That’s exactly what you’re seeing.
Now, here’s the part a lot of people miss. The same politicians promising free healthcare for everyone just made investors think the big growth engine is getting throttled.
Healthcare costs money. A lot of money. That money comes from taxes on a growing economy and from the wealth that growth creates. If you slow the economy down, there is less money to tax and less wealth to go around.
You can’t hand out free healthcare (or anything else) when you’ve just made it harder for the country to produce the money that pays for it.
That’s what happened today. The market is reacting to the idea that growth is about to get restricted. And growth is what funds everything else.
Isn’t socialism great? 😬

One of the things I have learned as a so-called "social media influencer" is that outlets like X and YouTube will pay you a LOT of money if you have a big enough audience. (Like millions of followers.)
That's great if your gig is clothing or sports or tech or whatever (other than politics).
But when your gig is politics, suddenly you have a choice. Do you try and advance America's interests and stay true to your principles, or do you try and make more money?
That temptation is real, trust me. Sometimes those two things align. More often, they do not.
Some of us stay true to our principles. Others opt for the Three Cs (Controversy, Clicks and Cash).
And some of those big social media accounts who opted for the Three Cs just did their part in handing America over to a communist/jihadist cabal, because filthy lucre.
You know who they are, and they should be reviled.

I feel bad for @ScottPresler. He worked his ass off and the @GOP pissed away the last 2 with their anti-Trump bs.
Thank you for everything you did Scott. You are everything our @SenateGOP should have been.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
The GOP doesn’t know how to fight. They don’t know how to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty.
You had two years to send people to jail. Omar should have been arrested, prosecuted, and deported. Tlaib should have been afraid and lawyered up. Pelosi should have been forced out. The Clintons should have been arrested.
You had two years to pass the SAVE Act, twist whatever arms on the SCOTUS to fix the loophole in the 14th, and codify the cuts in DOGE.
Instead, they sat on their hands and congratulated themselves over other people’s victories. No outreach. No change. No building on 2024.
Don’t worry, though… the Democrats are about to put on a masterclass in getting power, keeping it, and maintaining it for the future. Texas was just the first step.
If the GOP doesn’t learn from this, our country is doomed. We can’t have Madame President Ocasio-Cortez in our White House.

Lots of bitching on this app about what Trump didn’t do, instead of directing that anger toward the GOP, who hasn’t done shit for him.
That man did 30 rallies in 30 days FOR US. He did his part. He works like a fucking dog for this country.
It’s truly amazing how quickly people forget.
Maybe start holding the Republicans in Congress accountable instead of blaming the man who’s out there fighting for us every damn day.

John Thune did nothing to help Republicans in the midterms. Zero. He refused to help pass the Save America Act and didn't help Trump candidates like Paxton in Texas.
Win or lose the midterms, Thune needs to be fired immediately.

Last Friday, at an izakaya in Tokyo, my American coworker said something I can't stop thinking about.
His name is Ben. He's 50. From Georgia. He's lived in Tokyo for twelve years.
He'd been reading the news all week. Three beers in, he put his glass down and said:
"I don't think we're good people anymore."
He wasn't joking. He looked tired in a way I had never seen.
I'm Japanese. I've been watching Americans in Japan for twenty years. So I told him what I've seen.
In March 2011, after the tsunami, America sent 24,000 people. Sailors. Marines. Pilots. They called it Operation Tomodachi. Tomodachi means "friend." They helped dig out the airport in Sendai so the relief planes could land. My mother watched it on TV and cried. She still calls American sailors "the tomodachi boys."
Last spring, at Shinjuku Station, I watched an American tourist with his own giant suitcase carry a stranger's baby stroller up forty steps. Then he went back down and carried the next one. Then the next one. He stayed on those stairs for twenty minutes. His wife waited at the top, holding his suitcase, not even surprised.
At a convenience store near my office, an old man was thirty yen short. The American behind him put the coins on the counter before anyone could feel embarrassed. Then he went back to looking at his phone like nothing happened.
Every January, there's a big relay race here called Hakone Ekiden. One year, I stood near the course. The last runner came through, far behind everyone. The Japanese crowd had already started to leave. One American family was still there. Mom, dad, three kids. They screamed for him like he was winning.
He wasn't. He looked up at them anyway. He ran faster.
Ben listened to all of it. Then he shook his head.
"That's just a few people."
"Yes," I said. "It's always just a few people. But everywhere I look, there they are."
He didn't say anything.
So I told him what I really think.
Americans keep telling me they've lost something. Their kindness. Their decency. The country they used to be.
But you look exactly like my father looking for his car keys.
Patting every pocket. Checking the kitchen. Asking everyone in the house. Getting more and more upset.
While the keys are in his hand.
Ben laughed. A real laugh, the first one all night.
Then he put his face in his hands and cried a little. Right there, in the izakaya. The salarymen at the next table pretended not to notice, which is the most Japanese kindness there is.
So, America.
You didn't lose it.
You're just holding it while you look for it.

On a same-time snapshot, Florida is over 100K votes ahead than on Election Day 2024.
Overall, Florida is currently at a D+4 shift relative to 2024.
Nevada had a sluggish start, but is ramping up quickly in the rurals, the same places where FL is surging. Lombardo will still have a tough fight, but CD-2 should be a retain.
If these 2 states represent a pattern for rural turnouts nationwide, this means good things for KS, IA, ME. Then it'd come down to OH and possibly MI/TX for Senate control.
I don't see clear evidence of TX pointing in one direction or another yet. The error margins cross right where Paxton needs to be in my models. Just stay in line and vote.
