White slaves. 🏴🇬🇧
For three hundred years, pirates from Algiers sailed to Britain and Ireland, came ashore at night, and took people from their beds.
Baltimore, 1631. A hundred and seven people gone in one night. At most three ever came home.
Over a million Europeans ended up in chains in North Africa. Nobody bought them. They were stolen.
The kings of Europe paid ransom. For centuries.
In 1816, Britain stopped paying.
Lord Exmouth. Twenty British ships, six Dutch, against one of the strongest fortresses on earth. 27 August 1816. Nine hours. Fifty thousand cannonballs. 128 British sailors killed.
The next day the Dey signed. Every Christian slave freed. 1,083 people walked out of Algiers in one afternoon.
Nobody came for them... Until we did. ⚓🇬🇧💪

MAKING AMERICA SAFE AGAIN 🇺🇸
Today, I announced the FCC will vote to authorize prisons to jam contraband cellphones for the first time ever.
Almost 500,000 inmates now have access to them and 25,000 phones are seized in jails annually.
Inmates are using them at exceptionally high rates to order hits, run drug operations, enable CSAM abuse of young kids, and many more awful acts.
We are now giving state and local prisons & jails a tool they’ve been denied for years.
Grateful for the chance to get this across the finish line.

As I was saying.
According to The New York Times: Not only is Daniel J. Sullivan in Alaska running solely to confuse voters, the top Democratic candidate in the state was involved in recruiting Dan Sullivans for this very purpose.
Totally corrupt, unethical, and condemnable.

.@POTUS: "Just today, it was announced by the Department of Justice that last year we had over 100,000 fewer rapes, 170,000 fewer robberies, half a million fewer burglaries, and almost 700,000 fewer violent crimes than when I took office."

Delivering on the promise to keep Americans safe.
Violent crime plummeted from 2024 to 2025. These are the results of Law & Order policies in action. 🇺🇸

A new preliminary survey finds that the rate of violent crime victimization in 2025 fell by about 25%, compared with 2024. The DOJ called it the largest decline since 1973. cbsn.ws/4jHfc4I

🚨 New estimates from the Bureau of Justice Statistics’ National Crime Victimization Survey show violent crime PLUMMETED in 2025 compared to 2024.
This is what happens when you have an administration who prioritizes the safety and security of Americans and our communities. @POTUS Trump’s Make America Safe Again agenda works.

The playbook will go something like this: 1) win back the House and Senate, and hopefully the Presidency in 2028; (2) admit DC and Puerto Rico as states, which doesn’t need a constitutional amendment, to gain 4 new Senate seats and cement control; (3) pack the Court, which only requires a change to the Judiciary Act of 1869, not a constitutional amendment; (4) eliminate the electoral college, which is unconstitutional, but not when you have a rigged court that finds the ‘loophole’; (5) flood the country with pliant migrants, swamp the natives, and hold power indefinitely.

AI as the killer of open source. Open source software is great because it means you don't have to write everything yourself from scratch. Saves a lot of time. For humans, that is. AIs, however, can write an entire new framework from scratch in a few hours, so this doesn't matter so much. The cost of open source is that every attacker knows the code they want to attack, and they will eventually find exploits. Even in the language itself (e.g. php). The same logic applies to languages as to frameworks. We use Python because it is easy for humans. There is no need to use Python from an AI perspective. Just write a new language with the capabilities you need for a given service and use that. It will have no public code, so there is nothing to learn exploits for. In fact, maybe you should write your own operating system too. The general solution to these attacks is to avoid all open source code entirely. Ironic, because open source code gave birth to AI. It's the more general version of StackOverflow leading to AI leading to no StackOverflow.

Aline started working at age 12.
Over the next three decades she built La Barrique, a restaurant in Paris’s 10th arrondissement, from scratch. She cooked, served, and became part of the neighborhood.
On October 17, rioters broke in, destroyed the place, punched her in the face, and set the building on fire.
By morning her restaurant was ashes. 34 years of work, vaporized in a single night.
Obviously, Aline is an immigrant, one who went to work every day, contributed to the economy and served her community.
One of liberalism's fatal flaws is the fear of drawing distinctions. Distinctions between men and women. Distinctions between cultures. Distinctions between countries.
Because apparently noticing any differences means that you are violating your commitment to equality; it means that you are discriminating, and in the hierarchy of evils in the liberal world, there is no worse sin.
This is literally baked in to the French national motto:
Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité
Égalité means equality, specifically social or political equality.
Which means that drawing any distinctions is the same as discrimination.
But this is completely untethered from reality because these distinctions are REAL. And if you craft and enact policies that ignore these distinctions, the chickens (ok since this is France, the Gallic rooster) will come home to roost.
