There is no fact-based argument for a reduction of data center build out due to an already expected split government midterm result or the state voting initiatives. 1. If a local/state gov doesn’t want to make a deal, the cloud/hyperscaler will move to one who will . This isn’t binary, most locals are making deals. The builds over the next 1-1.5yrs are already permitted. 2. If the US as a whole rejects enough land mass where the demand for AI factories cannot be fulfilled in the US, those AI factories will move offshore repeating the prior 3 decades of globalization and hollowing out of our middle class. It was dumb back then and even dumber now given the geopolitical national security implications of AI sovereignty… @HalftimeReport @TheJudgeCNBC

Ram Chhetri came to the US as a refugee, but this might be worst day of his life: It's the moment he realizes the $80k-$160k/year salary he's bilked from Medicaid for no-show work is coming to an end because @realdailywire caught the truth on camera. We conducted months of surveillance that shows why "home care aide" is now the *most common job* in states like NY, CA, MN, and PA: Because a large part of those jobs are unambiguous Medicaid fraud. Thanks to home care, Bhutanese refugees now make more money than actual PA families. The state doesn't just look the other way, but helps them get away with it. Converting federal health dollars into a universal basic income for certain communities relieves the financial burden they place on the state. The scammers easily deceive the feds' woefully broken monitoring system. You'll see Ram pull into a driveway for 2 minutes in the morning, then 2 minutes in the evening. He clocks in and out of his shift from the right place, and the GPS system doesn't notice that he goes home in between. $20 an hour doesn't sound like much, but at 77 hours a week, it's $80k–and it's easy to bill huge hours when you don't actually have to work them. And that's just for the low-level guys in this scheme.

I've been saying it for months: we're heading toward a new 1989. Not the fall of the Berlin Wall this time. The fall of the globalist project, and its fundamentally collectivist vision of humanity. Remember the video Klaus Schwab's World Economic Forum published in 2016, the "predictions for 2030." Prediction number one: "You'll own nothing. And you'll be happy." You'll own nothing, rent everything, and smile about it. They presented it as a desirable future. Marx summed up communism in a single sentence: the abolition of private property. The WEF just rewrote it with a delivery drone. Their problem is that two forces are now tearing this project apart. The first is AI. For the first time in history, a single individual can own a lever of production that used to require an army of employees, a bank, and a state. AI doesn't centralize capital. It hands it to the people who build. That is the exact opposite of "you'll own nothing." The second is reality. Exploding debt, collapsing public services despite record taxes, rising insecurity, schools that no longer teach anything. You can lie about reality for decades. You can't stop it from arriving. So here's what they're going to do now. First, activate their networks. Soros's foundations, starting with Open Society, have spent years pouring money into NGOs, activist collectives, and "anti-repression" groups that form the ideological and logistical breeding ground of the crowds we're seeing today from Paris to Montreal. When the argument no longer works, all that's left is chaos. Second, manipulate the youth. This is how communists have always taken power. Mao, speaking to Chinese students in 1957: "The world is yours. You young people are like the sun at eight or nine in the morning." Nine years later, he unleashed the Red Guards: high schoolers and university students who humiliated their teachers, denounced their parents, and burned books. And once they were no longer useful, he shipped some 17 million of them off to the countryside to be "re-educated." Youth is always the fuel of the revolution. Never its beneficiary. Third, the globalist elites will do everything they can to keep the chaos going. Because a country in chaos demands more state, more control, more surveillance, more "governance." Chaos isn't a bug in their project. It's how it runs. But either way, their project has only two possible endings. Neither one goes their way. Ending one: political Islam. They think they can use it as an ally against the West, against the nation, against the family. They forgot Iran. In 1979, the Iranian left, led by the communists of the Tudeh Party, marched hand in hand with Khomeini to overthrow the Shah. Four years later, the party was banned, its leaders in prison, many of them executed. Islamism never lets itself be used by Marxism. It devours it. Your Marxist project will end up eaten by the very people you thought you were manipulating. Ending two: economic collapse. Because let's say it plainly: the elites running this project are, on the whole, economically illiterate. Brilliant at storytelling, hopeless at incentives. Ludwig von Mises proved it back in 1920: without private property there are no prices, without prices there is no economic calculation, and without economic calculation there is only waste and shortage. Hayek drove the point home: no central planner can aggregate the dispersed knowledge of billions of people. Global collectivism can't work. Not because it's been badly implemented. Because it is structurally impossible. The USSR learned that in 1989. They're about to learn it now. The wall is already shifting.

I’ve spent a few days thinking about the Tesla Roadster reveal and landed somewhere I haven’t seen much discussion. I’m neither a Tesla fanboy nor a Tesla hater. And I couldn’t care less whether what we saw technically qualifies as a flying car. Three takeaways: (1) The risk of that live demonstration going horribly wrong was real. Almost no CEO would willingly expose their company to that kind of public humiliation for a product with so little financial upside. Elon did. (2) That willingness to attempt the seemingly impossible is what makes Tesla special. It’s also arguably Elon’s greatest contribution to America. He’s helped bring back something we’ve lost. The American spirit of chasing big scary ideas that most people think are impossible. That mindset is spreading across a new generation of founders and its long term impact on America’s future could dwarf anything Tesla ever sells. I think this is deeply underappreciated. (3) Can we just acknowledge how insanely cool that moment was? We’ve reached a strange place culturally where even extraordinary feats of human ingenuity immediately become arguments about why they don’t count. Not everything needs to be a debate. Sometimes we should just be able to stand back together and marvel at what humans are capable of. I’ve been both bullish and critical of Tesla’s ambitions over the years. But watching Elon and his team push the boundaries of what’s possible reminds me why I’m glad we have him. Whether the Roadster ever makes Tesla a dollar or impacts $TSLA stock price is almost beside the point. We need more people willing to risk failure in pursuit of things the rest of us think are impossible. Because when they succeed we all win.

This is so good. Exactly what we hoped would happen. EVERY child becomes a capitalist and a shareholder in America’s success. šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øšŸš€ A 9-year-old checks the S&P 500 close, names a company they own a piece of, and watches that ownership grow over time, learning investing, ownership, and the power of compounding along the way. šŸ“ˆ
In August, on my grandson’s 9th birthday, I gave my daughter $500 to seed his 530A Trump Account. When the account opened, @MichaelDell and Susan Dell’s $250 hit it. That was the moment he got excited. He wanted to see the app. He wanted to see ā€œhisā€ money. We did not stop at a one-time gift. We turned it into a weekly habit. I scanned the QR code and added $50 on top just to test the app. It worked. Simple. Fast. A couple of weeks ago it hit me: if I add a little every week, he will actually watch. So now, every Friday after the close, he has a job. He tells me: 1The S&P 500 close 2The weekly change 3One company in the index Then I put $5 in his Trump Account. He does not get paid for existing. He gets paid for paying attention. That is the point. The $500 birthday seed started the account.
The Dell $250 made it real to a kid.
The QR test proved a grandfather can fund it in seconds.
The weekly $5 is what builds the habit. He is learning the names of American companies. Not slogans. Companies. The ones in the S&P 500 that hire people, sell products, and compound over time. A child who owns a slice of those companies becomes a capitalist. A child who only hears that wealth should be handed out becomes a spectator. A 530A Trump Account is a tax-deferred investment account in the child’s name. No job required to fund it. Any U.S. child under 18 with a Social Security number can have one. Kids born 2025–2028 can get a $1,000 Treasury seed. Family, friends, and employers can add up to $5,000 a year. It stays invested in a low-cost U.S. index fund until the year he turns 18. We opened his at TrumpAccounts.gov. Thank you @POTUS for signing it. Thank you @SenTedCruz for writing it. Thank you @SecScottBessent @USTreasury and @TrumpAccounts for building the account, the app, and the QR code so a grandparent can fund it from a phone. Thank you @MichaelDell and Susan Dell. Your $250 is what made a little boy open the app and care. Thank you @altcap @InvestAmerica24 and everyone else putting real money behind other people’s kids. This is how you raise owners, not dependents. Grandparents: seed it once. Then attach a weekly job to the next dollar. Parents: open it tonight at TrumpAccounts.gov. If you are doing this with a child, reply with the company they named this week.
