A Hero That Trusted His Intuition.
The problem wasn’t that Morgan Stanley didn’t believe him.
Rick Rescorla had already been right once. After the 1993 basement bombing of the World Trade Center, the firm’s security chief walked the towers, studied the site, and reached a conclusion most people preferred not to hear: the World Trade Center was still a target. Next time, he said, it would not be a truck. It would be an airplane.
An airplane. In a 1993 report.
Executives listened. Then they looked at the lease.
Morgan Stanley was the largest tenant in the complex—twenty-two floors of the South Tower, thousands of brokers, and a trading infrastructure that could not be packed into boxes and wheeled across the Hudson.
They literally made it a trading center.
The contract with the Port Authority ran until 2006. Walking away from premium Manhattan space of that scale would have meant penalties measured in the hundreds of millions, plus the operational chaos of relocating an entire downtown machine. So the company stayed.
Rescorla adjusted. If they could not leave the building, they would learn to escape it.
He built a protocol and treated it like doctrine. Unannounced drills. No exemptions. Brokers who billed by the minute were pulled off their desks and sent into the stairwells two by two, starting from the top floors, leaving a lane for firefighters coming the other way.
People complained. He did not care. Practice, he believed, was the only thing that would beat panic.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, American Airlines Flight 11 hit the North Tower. From the 44th floor of the South Tower, Rescorla could see the fire. Then the Port Authority came over the speakers: the South Tower was secure. Stay at your desks.
Rescorla grabbed a bullhorn and ignored them.
He started the drill his people already knew by heart. Floor by floor, two by two, down the stairs. He sang as he moved—Cornish songs from childhood, then “God Bless America”—keeping the line moving, refusing to let the stairwell become a stampede. Seventeen minutes later, the second plane struck the South Tower.
By then, most of Morgan Stanley was already on the way out.
Of the 2,687 employees in the building that morning, all but 13 survived.
It was stunning.
Rescorla could have been outside with them. He went back up instead. Colleagues told him to leave. He said he would, as soon as he was sure no one was left behind.
He was last seen around the 10th floor, heading higher.
The South Tower fell at 9:59 a.m. They never found him.
He was one of the 13.
He was a hero in every sense of the word.
Remember Rick Rescorla, he remembered for us.
Democrats have found a platform for the midterms. Forgot the real agenda: eliminating ICE, defund police encourage child mutilation, increase government spending on giveaways and open the border again. Talk about affordability crisis. Very smart but the problem for the dems is that they caused the crisis. It’s a bit like a person taking credit for stopping a crime simply by changing his mind.

The father in this case, who is now in prison for the rest of his life and as far as I’m concerned should be executed, actually has a MUCH more convincing “insanity” defense. He killed his sons because he believed God wanted him to do it. When the cops arrived he was rambling incoherently and confessed to the crimes on the basis that he was doing what God wanted. He did not magically snap in and out of his psychosis. He was still clearly psychotic when the police questioned him. And yet you’ll notice that not a single woman on TikTok or anywhere else is expressing any sympathy for this guy. And certainly no men are rallying to his defense either. He went to prison, as he should, with no fanfare or fan clubs. That’s because Clancy’s female defenders don’t actually care about mental health or postpartum depression or anything else. They just simply think it’s okay for women (and only women) to kill their kids. That’s all.

Schumer and the Dems have no problem requiring ID for many of life’s necessities including cashing checks, medical visits, getting a job, just buying a beer or cigarettes, even though they claim many people can’t produce a valid ID. But requiring ID to vote is unfair to women and minorities. It almost seems like they don’t care if women and minorities can’t cash checks or see doctors or even get a job as long as they can vote.

Excellent summary. I would add an observation that is not necessarily proof but is strong evidence, of Trump’s good character. No public figure has ever been so investigated, taxes examined or personal life put under a microscope as Trump. The man has been in the public eye for decades. More is known about him than even the most well known public figure. And yet after millions spent by armies investigating, no actual evidence of wrongdoing has ever been found. He is clearly tough but unquestionably honest.

Trump has been the most successful president in modern times and perhaps in our history. There is one area which may need thoughtful consideration. If the people of the realm think of him as a king, that image is being tarnished by allowing disrespectful rallies. No self respecting king would ever permit such a display. On the other hand we decided against kings 250 years ago.
Now that the No Kings rallies have proven successful (we still have no kings), for the sake of all the children who have trouble going to sleep because of the monster in the closet, can we get funding for a No Monsters rally?

Anyone who rapes kids deserves the death penalty.
Here's the problem with the Eipstein mess:
The FBI doesn't have the evidence many thought it did.
There are not tapes with powerful men raping kids.
There is not a list.
(Eipstein's rolodex is already public.)
And the file is largely unreleasable, for many reasons including:
1. Grand-jury materials
2. Court records under seal
3. Child pornography
4. Protection of victims
5. Unsubstantiated, even double- or triple-hearsay, bogus claims (like we saw during the Kavanaugh proceedings), which would permanently destroy the reputation of innocent people if released
Does anyone really believe Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, or Dan Bongino would cover up for the likes of Bill Clinton or Bill Gates--if they had that evidence?
The Trump Justice Department wanted to be fully transparent. But it can't, for the reasons above. This is a case of no good deed goes unpunished.
This is no doubt unsatisfying to many. But that's the hard truth.
Musk has it within his grasp to become an American hero doing the near impossible to protect the freedoms of his fellow countrymen, or alternatively to become a villain disliked by almost everyone regardless of their political leaning.
Dear @elonmusk,
I have no idea wtf is going on. MAGA embraced you before you even endorsed President Trump because we appreciated your fight for freedom of speech when you purchased Twitter.
We celebrated you joining the Trump train after deranged Democrats tried to kill him.
We defended you, when the left tried to cancel you.
We rallied around you when the terrorist Democrats firebombed your vehicles and dealerships.
We stepped up and bought subscriptions when advertisers abandoned your platform.
We did not expect blind loyalty. Often times President Trump will make moves that even we don't understand at first, but eventually it makes sense.
We empathize with you feeling let down and or betrayed over your EV mandate being canceled, your friend not getting a job, and your distrust of the reconciliation bill.
With all of that being said, going scorched Earth on President Trump and the millions of red blooded Americans who stood with you in your time of need is not the path to victory.
This is not how we save America, reach Mars, save the middle class, elevate those struggling at the bottom, preserve our culture and way of life, nor is it how we come together as a nation.
I humbly ask you to reconsider your current path, give the President and MAGA a chance to show you that he's going to save our country, and allow us to support your ambitions once again, away from politics.
Signed
-Concerned MAGA

Look, I'm seeing this from the inside, and am admittedly biased towards our president (and my friend), but there's a lot of crazy stuff on social media, so I wanted to address some things directly on the Iran issue:
First, POTUS has been amazingly consistent, over 10 years, that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. Over the last few months, he encouraged his foreign policy team to reach a deal with the Iranians to accomplish this goal. The president has made clear that Iran cannot have uranium enrichment. And he said repeatedly that this would happen one of two ways--the easy way or the "other" way.
Second, I've seen a lot of confusion over the issue of "civilian nuclear power" and "uranium enrichment." These are distinct issues. Iran could have civilian nuclear power without enrichment, but Iran rejected that. Meanwhile, they've enriched uranium far above the level necessary for any civilian purpose. They've been found in violation of their non-proliferation obligations by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which is hardly a rightwing organization.
It's one thing to want civilian nuclear energy. It's another thing to demand sophisticated enrichment capacity. And it's still another to cling to enrichment while simultaneously violating basic non-proliferation obligations and enriching right to the point of weapons-grade uranium.
I have yet to see a single good argument for why Iran needed to enrich uranium well above the threshold for civilian use. I've yet to see a single good argument for why Iran was justified in violating its non-proliferation obligations. I've yet to see a single good pushback against the IAEA's findings.
Meanwhile, the president has shown remarkable restraint in keeping our military's focus on protecting our troops and protecting our citizens.
He may decide he needs to take further action to end Iranian enrichment. That decision ultimately belongs to the president. And of course, people are right to be worried about foreign entanglement after the last 25 years of idiotic foreign policy.
But I believe the president has earned some trust on this issue. And having seen this up close and personal, I can assure you that he is only interested in using the American military to accomplish the American people's goals. Whatever he does, that is his focus.

Beyond the Trump-Musk fallout?
At first impression, it makes no sense that Musk would start firing away at the (admittedly imperfect) budget bill, or escalate to DefCon 1, by tweeting nonsense about impeachment, the Epstein files, or disengaging his space efforts from the U.S. agenda to stay preeminent in space.
After all, he and Trump have roughly the same enemies—the Left that is now delighted at their quarrel—and the same general aims: to repeal the progressive cultural project, to restore meritocracy, to strive to ensure the U.S. is globally preeminent economically and militarily, to unfetter the economy, and to limit government intrusion.
It is an irony of our checks and balances that an elected president, with majorities in both branches of Congress, still does not govern without compromise with hundreds of representative and senators.
Trump’s task is now further complicated because for the first time in U.S. history he is also the daily target of a systemic attack by legions of cherry-picked, lower-court, liberal federal district judges, who find their five-minutes of liberal fame, by issuing fiats not for their regional jurisdictions, but for all 340 million Americans everywhere.
Musk, on the other hand, as the richest man in the world and CEO of his companies, can rule by directives, in a way a president, the most powerful man in the world, simply cannot. What the White House may have wanted in the bill, and what they could reasonably achieve were not synonymous.
Moreover, Musk knows that his nemesis is the left, not MAGA, much less Trump.
Trump was sincerely awed by Musk’s rocketry and his rescue of the astronauts. He befriended Musk because he admired his competence, similar candor, and even his eccentricities—and saw what his talents were doing and could do for the country.
Musk in turn was moved by Trump’s defiance after nearly having his head blown off, and likewise was appalled what the Left had done to the border, in the blue-city downtowns, in Kabul, and anywhere subject to their anti-Midas touch.
Musk knows that the leftwing California coastal commission tried to curtail his rocket launches, out of spite.
Democrats tried to ruin him for his valuable work with DOGE.
If the Democrats win the House, they will go after both Musk and Trump with endless subpoenas and nihilist Mueller-like investigations. (Musk should be right now strategizing with Republican House members how to ward off a Democratic takeover).
Tesla started bleeding because of a systematic leftwing effort to terrorize Tesla drivers, dealerships, and charging stations, and a Democratic-media-backed PR campaign to demonize the brand—all because Musk had aligned himself with Trump.
So, Musk, knows that Trump treated him fairly and gave him more latitude than any private presidential advisor since the friendship between Harry Hopkins (who moved into the White House) and FDR.
What will likely follow?
Hopefully a social media truce—followed by intermediaries restoring the friendship but spelling out the limitations and constraints on each that will result in a new less volatile, less intense, but more sustainable and mutually beneficial relationship.
Trump is now engaged in high-stakes diplomacy with some of the toughest, slyest, and meanest leaders in the world with Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, and the Iranian lunatic theocrats. He cannot afford to reach out to Musk and thereby appear to his enemies that he backs down.
But if Musk reaches out and wishes to look ahead and not nurse wounds, Trump can certainly be magnanimous and to his credit state that he holds no grudges for what was said in the heat of passion, as he too looks forward to where and when he can help and be helped by Musk in the many areas where their aims are similar.
The sane tech crowd, and most of the MAGA base want an end to this aberrant Trump-Musk eruption. Over half the country concurs.
Do not be fooled that the suicidal impulses of Democrats have neutered them.
Instead, we are witnessing an unprecedented, unhinged Democrat effort to use lawfare, big Democrat donors, street theater, congressional disruptions, potty-mouth videos, the administrative state, the legacy media, and discredited pollsters to stop the Trump agenda. It will only intensify as the midterms near.
Unity not, not discord, is needed now—and quickly.

The great irony of Justice Roberts is that his gutless appeasement meant to “preserve the institution” of the Supreme Court is actually swinging a sledgehammer at its foundation
Some members of Congress are concerned about accepting a 747 as a gift without congressional approval. Maybe those members should authorize the acceptance unless they would prefer to reject it and instead spend taxpayer money. However dumb that sounds, that is Washington logic.

The Chief Justice has allowed activist judges to sabotage American voters and our duly elected President.
John Roberts is incapable of getting his judicial house in order.
So Congress must do it for him, through oversight hearings, jurisdiction-stripping, and funding cuts.
