It's almost as if the economy was doing just fine and everyone knew it but had to pretend otherwise for the midterms 🤔
A blow for him 💔

The obvious price gouging Americans have had to suffer through should be illegal.
Gasoline prices in the U.S. are below $4 a gallon for the first time in nearly four months.

Being a parent of a teenager in the modern digital environment means begging your kid to play Minecraft or do *something* even slightly less brain-rotting than watching short video content from Spotify, which is what they're started doing because you've blocked all YouTube content from the XBox devices at the router level and turned off the WiFi and limited the carrier data throughput after 9PM for their smart phones, which they legitimately need because that is how their coaches communicate with them about cheer routines or band practice
And if you dare to complain about how annoying it is to have this second job as an IT admin just to keep your kids from guzzling down the worlds shittiest content, half the internet calls you a bad parent for not locking them down more and the other half calls you a bad parent for being a content Nazi

Nothing like your first act being out of the Venezuelan socialist playbook . . . This will not end well.

This truly sucks for…I don’t know- REALITY.
People are suckers and have been failing for lies since time began.
Oil crashed the day after Democrats took Congress. Then Van Jones went on CNN and admitted the quiet part out loud.
The day after the election, Brent crude fell 8.7% in a single day. WTI fell 13% on the week. Worst week for oil since COVID. Nothing about the war changed overnight. Only the election ended.
And it is still falling this morning. WTI is down near $87 a barrel. Tankers are still getting hit near the Strait of Hormuz. But the fear is gone, right on schedule.
The official story is that traders think a Democrat Congress will force Trump to end the Iran war. Maybe. Hold that thought.
Because then Van Jones went on CNN and bragged about how they did it. His exact words: 'The Republicans never figured out what we were doing.'
Jones said Democrats ran something called the American Accountability Network. Tens of thousands of real people. Not bots. Coordinated to post the same message, everywhere, every day.
And the message never changed. Everything is unaffordable. Gas costs too much. And it is all the Republicans' fault. Jones said they tied kitchen table pain to Democrats on a positive and Republicans on a negative.
The scale he claimed: 32.5 million hits a day on Instagram. 88.8 million on X. 185 million on Facebook. That is not a campaign. That is a flood. And it was aimed at your gas tank.
This was not some random group either. The network's own partner list includes the DNC, the DCCC, the DSCC, MoveOn, the AFL-CIO and the SEIU. The whole machine, working one message.
So here is the question people are asking now. If the crisis was real, why did oil fall off a cliff the morning after the votes were counted? Inventories actually went down that week. Less oil sitting around usually means higher prices. Prices crashed anyway.
They did not win on policy. They won on volume. They manufactured a crisis, pointed it at your gas tank, and flooded every feed in America until it worked. And Jones said the network is not going away.
What were you paying for gas on Election Day?

Accurate
Politician: I hate your culture, your civilization, your religion, your society, your people. I hate your music. I hate your dogs. I hate your literature. I hate your personal freedoms and liberties. I hate everything about you. Everything.
Electorate: Sure but do you hate Trump?
Politician: Yes.
Electorate: Well then, I see no reason not to vote for you. You've earned my vote.

Not lower prices. Not cheaper groceries. Just obstruction.
🚨 SO MUCH FOR UNITY: Hakeem Jeffries just announced Democrats will NOT work with the White House.
His words on Stephen Miller: "There's not gonna be any opportunity to work with Stephen Miller and what he represents."
Then he bragged about a "FIREWALL in the House and a FIREWALL in the Senate."
Democrats spent all week claiming voters gave them an affordability mandate.
Five days later, the plan is a wall against the President.
Not lower prices. Not cheaper groceries. Just obstruction.
Remember this in 2028.

Crazy times we live in.

I’m old enough to remember a few days ago when data centers caused residential electricity prices to soar.
Now .. not so much.

A statistic that sounds fake but isn't: Not one single white American man born after 1984 has published a work of literary fiction in The New Yorker.
It's not because they stopped writing. It's because The New Yorker has refused to publish them. The publishing industry has blacked out a generation of male writers & then they wonder why boys don't read.
About 70% of publishing professionals are women.
Because agents and editors tend to select books they personally relate to, an increasing number of male authors are being sidelined in the publishing industry, resulting in an overwhelming number of female protagonists on our shelves—and a dearth of male ones.
No wonder young men are no longer reading.

Look directly at Ro Khanna's own X account after Tuesday night.
He didn't post a bill to lower grocery prices.
He posted three words:
"DEI is back." 🤡
Read those three words until they burn into your memory.
Democrats didn't take Congress to help working fathers buy steak or pay the electric bill.
They took Congress to bring back woke quotas, gender lectures, and anti-meritocracy madness.
They lied to get your vote, and laughed in your face the next morning. 🔥

Watching child porn and selling heroin are classified as “nonviolent offenses” by the way.
This is the Mayor of Houston directly advocating for policies that protect some of the worst criminals in America.
