This is what reshoring looks like in real life. Thanks to tariffs, stamping work is coming back to America! 🇺🇸
At our factory, @AtlasTool, we’ve already won seven figures in new annual stamping business as production returns to the USA.
We’re hiring new employees, retraining and upskilling our existing workforce, and even bringing mothballed equipment back to life to meet growing demand.
In this video, we’re moving a massive 75,000-pound stamping press across a crowded, busy production floor to its new home, where it will be refurbished, modernized, and automated.
Built in the 1950s, this machine weighs 37.5 tons and delivers an impressive 120 tons of stamping force!
How do you move 37.5 tons of American manufacturing muscle?
Very slowly. Very carefully. And with a great team.
This is what tariffs are supposed to do: bring production, investment, and good-paying jobs back to America. 🇺🇸

#EstampasDeMiCuba - Periódico PRENSA LIBRE, 2 de diciembre de 1959.
El régimen cubano logró 100 millones de dólares en créditos tras un viaje a Europa. Italia, Holanda y Alemania Occidental fueron los países.
Cien millones tras solo varios meses de llegar al poder. Lo cogieron todo hecho, funcionando, produciendo. Cuba era un país productivo e industrial en 1959.
¿Qué hicieron con ese dinero? El régimen confiscó las fábricas, las industrias, las plantas. Se adueñó de las tierras, de los pequeños negocios. Y luego llegó la URSS, que aportó más de 4 mil millones de dólares anuales durante casi 30 años.
Ladrones, incompetentes, corruptos. Hay baches en Cuba que fueron asfaltados por última vez desde antes de Fulgencio Batista.
¡Yo me cago en tu revolución!

We can make things in America. And Palmer Luckey shows us how.
Palmer Luckey says analysts claiming it's too expensive to manufacture in the US are lying to protect megacorps
"I think I have a more realistic view than almost anybody. One of the problems with all these analysts that are telling you that it's going to cost $37,000 to build an American iPhone or $100,000 to buy an American computer."
"They're trying to prop up a status quo that the megacorporations want to keep going. They want to outsource everything. They want to hire cheaper non-American labor."
"They are willing to say and do anything to convince you that it can't be fixed, that it can't come back, that America is this helpless, neutered, post-relevant empire, and it is just not the case."
"How do I know that? Because I have to make stuff in America every day because I work in the defense industry. The stuff that Anduril makes every day is not actually that different from a computer. My drones are basically computers. They have memory, a GPU, a CPU, sensors, batteries, a rugged integration."
"The only difference between an Anduril attack drone and a laptop is a keyboard and a screen. That is not that hard to figure out, especially for a guy like me who started Oculus and comes from the consumer electronics space."
"We're not going to let people lie about what America can and can't do anymore. We're just going to do it."
My friend's boomer dad spent nearly 25 years building a business from the ground up. Started with nothing. Grew it into something worth close to $3 million.
Sold it in 2021 to a private equity firm that came in talking about "scaling" and "taking it to the next level."
Within a year, they'd cut 30 jobs, raised prices across the board by close to 40%, and quietly dissolved the retirement plan he'd spent two decades building for his employees. Stripped it for parts, extracted what they could, and moved on to the next acquisition.
He told my friend it's the single worst decision of his career. Said he genuinely believed they'd protect what he spent his whole life building.
Private equity firms don't buy businesses to run them long-term. They buy them to extract value fast and exit. And this exact playbook is running right now in industries you interact with every single week, healthcare, retail, even your kid's daycare.

NEW: The Trump administration is considering lifting sanctions on Russia’s flagship government investment fund, a powerful tool of Kremlin influence, a U.S. official said, as part of efforts to “improve U.S.-Russia relations and help end the war.”
The official also praised the fund’s chief, Kirill Dmitriev, as “a helpful envoy” in negotiations to end the war—NYT
Ben Yoho, an Ohio political consultant, reportedly sent someone to Pennsylvania to find Amy Acton's mother, who was living out of her car, to put her in front of a camera to denounce her daughter.
Yoho was the recipient of hundreds of millions of dollars of DHS funds for ads of Kristi Noem while his wife, Tricia McLaughlin, worked under Noem. McLaughlin previously worked for Ramaswamy and denounced Bo French for his comments opposing the replacement of White students at UT-Austin.
Acton's mother was living with cats, having previously been convicted of killing kittens, and has been estranged from her daughter since she fled with Acton's rapist, her step-father.
Donna Arthur, Acton's mother, called her daughter a "liar."

Putin: “Elon Musk is a genius — just genuinely a genius”
The Kremlin chief said Russia maintains contact with Musk on low-Earth orbit satellite constellations, despite political disagreements.
Earlier, Musk admitted that he had restricted Starlink services for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, fearing that Putin would retaliate by shooting down his satellites in response to Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory.

"What we seem to be getting back to is the 19th century. Then politics tended to be centered on the fight between liberals and anti-liberals. That struggle defined the history of many nations in that era. We thought we’d moved beyond that. We were wrong."

I’m not done with you Elon.
The grand champion of government efficiency. The billionaire savant who was supposed to blast into Washington, expose all the waste, eliminate the rampant fraud, and show the rest of us incompetent peasants how it’s done.
Well, I’ve been looking into how that little DOGE experiment turned out.
And holy fucking shit.
The Government Accountability Office, an independent federal watchdog, examined DOGE’s ridiculously massive savings claims.
You know what they found?
DOGE claimed $1.7 BILLION in savings from a Defense Department contract that hadn’t even been terminated.
The contract was still there.
The supposed savings?
Zero. Zilch. A big egg.
Of 264 federal leases DOGE listed for termination, 108 were already being phased out before DOGE even existed and Elon maneuvered his pineapple shaped upper half into the Capitol.
And nearly TWO THOUSAND contracts they claimed to have terminated? Still weren’t terminated.
Two fucking thousand.
Auditors couldn’t adequately verify enormous portions of DOGE’s advertised savings either.
In other words, straight lies.
Possibly crimes.
Imagine an ordinary federal employee claiming billions in savings that didn’t exist, then failing to explain the numbers when auditors came asking.
Elon Musk and his little taint licking army of efficiency enthusiasts would be crying fraud from every corner of America.
But when it’s their demiurge Elon?
Silence.
For a man who demands receipts from the entire federal government, Musky sure has an awfully difficult time producing his own, doesn’t he?
And spare me the mythology of the self made megagenius personally fireman’s carrying humanity into the future while hopping between K holes and playing his boosted Diablo account.
Thousands of workers do the work, but the billionaire becomes a god. That tracks.
And while we’re discussing this “self made megagenius,” remember his companies have benefited from tens of billions in government contracts, loans, subsidies, tax incentives, and other public support.
Some contracts paid for valuable services. Cool shit. But it wasn’t just him.
Public institutions helped.
Taxpayers helped. We the people helped. Scientists, engineers, factory workers helped.
Then the richest man in the room gets treated like he personally invented our future.
You know what really bothers me?
The staggering double standard.
A government employee makes an accounting error? Incompetent trash. An ordinary worker needs public assistance? Lazy parasite.
We can hardly blow off an unpaid traffic ticket without a bench warrant.
But a billionaire benefits from government support and oversees an initiative whose savings claims don’t withstand scrutiny?
He’s a genius. A goddamn visionary. Saving civilization and cradling humanity itself.
Are you people fucking serious?
I don’t hate Elon Musk because he’s wealthy. I don’t hate anyone. And I don’t deny his companies have accomplished extraordinary things. They have.
I object to the grotesque transformation of financial success into unquestionable moral and intellectual authority, to the erasure of the people whose labor makes those accomplishments possible, and to watching this asshole demand accountability from ordinary Americans and immigrants while his cult refuses to demand the same from him.
You wanna celebrate technological progress? Wonderful.
Celebrate the engineers. The scientists. The factory workers. The guys who sweep the floor at night.
And if you celebrate the billionaire who helped finance and organize it, at least acknowledge the difference.
The Earth doesn’t revolve around Elon Musk. Humanity’s future shouldn’t depend on whether he gets his ego stroked off.
For fuck’s sake, stop worshipping billionaires. Stop kneeling. It’s pathetic.
They’re people. Albeit shitty people. And even if they’re lizards they should be held to the same standards as the rest of us.
No throne is beyond judgment.
And where’s my fucking DOGE check.

$11.2 BILLION to win elections, while tax payers can barely afford to live.
The GOP is shattering records as Republicans flood the airwaves with ads, attack each other, and fight desperately for power.
Meanwhile, Americans are getting crushed by the cost of groceries, housing, gas, and electricity. Voters say the cost of living is hitting depression eral levels while Washington’s political class is preparing to spend BILLIONS more convincing them it deserves another shot.
There’s always money for campaign ads. Always money for political warfare. ALWAYS money for Israel. But where the hell is the urgency when Americans can’t afford food or gas?

Wrong again @pass_blue. Under the 1947 UN Headquarters Agreement the headquarters district in NYC is in fact still US territory and US law applies there unless specified otherwise.
You should actually read the agreement. I did.
Mike Waltz, US envoy to UN, is confused as he shouts at Cuban diplomats, saying: "This is America!" but the UN is international territory: UN 101
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The UN headquarters district remains US territory under the 1947 Headquarters Agreement, where federal, state and local US law applies except as otherwise provided; the agreement grants inviolability but does not transfer sovereignty to the UN.
