When will Texas fight back? I get it, retarded progressives elected a commie DA / council. But the TX Constitution says Austin govt exists AT THE PLEASURE OF THE STATE. It's our capitol: take and fix it! If even ONE state showed this courage, it'd help our entire civilization.
AUSTIN PSA - Sunday night, between 1–2 a.m., our widowed neighbor — an elderly cancer survivor — was robbed. They kicked in her door, stole thousands, including handmade keepsakes from her late husband. The next night she stayed up, lights on, no door, terrified. We’re DONE. 🧵
One of the most predictable disasters in recent memory. NYC effectively banned short-term rentals like Airbnb—and now working-class people need to take out a second mortgage just to spend a weekend there. All in the name of ~helping.~ Total economic illiteracy.
In startups, patience is not a virtue. CLOCK SPEED is key; great execs go back and forth many times a day, and iterate multiple times a week on what takes a corporation months. Greats are distinguished by how fast they reply, or learn and iterate - especially on little things.
The New York Times agrees. They say that east coast beaches will be submerged beneath rising seas within 25 years. 🗨️ “𝐴𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒𝑙𝑦 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑒, 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑒𝑥𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑡𝑠 𝑠𝑎𝑦 𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑐ℎ𝑒𝑠 𝑜𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝐸𝑎𝑠𝑡 𝐶𝑜𝑎𝑠𝑡…
Not funny. In 100 years that coastline will be up to the grass.

JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS is now 7th longest serving Supreme Court Justice in U. S. history- 33 years, 330 days. He’s our nation’s greatest Justice & an American hero. Watch Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words & listen to or read his memoirs, My Grandfather’s Son.
Deserved.

The great Argentine author Jorge Luis Borges (1899 – 1986) explains why English is “a far finer language than Spanish.” I was very impressed by his collection of short stories, Ficciones.
“President Trump called for a massive buildout of AI data centers, chip manufacturing plants, and new power generation.” - and nuclear power will be lead that new generating capacity.
3/ Infrastructure is everything. Expanding upon the $92 billion of AI infrastructure investments that he announced in Pittsburgh on July 15, President Trump called for a massive buildout of AI data centers, chip manufacturing plants, and new power generation. He signed the…
American exceptionalism in one chart. The US still strongly believes in free market principles, entrepreneurship and innovation. Europe with its bureaucracy, socialist mindset and overregulation becomes irrelevant. It’s really that simple.
Why did we destroy a historic park designed by Frederick Olmsted for this again
Obama’s presidential library looks like…[FILL IN THE BLANK].
A good man I know from Arkansas woke up in the middle of the night last Oct to find that his daughter has been kidnapped. Called 911. Left to look for her while he stayed on the line with 911. Found her in a car with a man who was already arrested and charged for grooming,…
The fact that Americans don't trust the media is bad for the country, but the death of media credibility is a suicide. They regularly publish falsehoods to push narratives so hard to blame people for looking elsewhere. Even if the other sources also aren't reliable.
This is such an absurd lie and a perfect example of why people don’t trust the media. The fact Hamas diverted large portions of aid for resale/profit is well established. Here was WaPO TODAY on how Hamas has gone broke since the UN stopped being the main source of aid to Gaza
It’s purpose is suppression of the people
The Online Safety Act was never about protecting anyone.

Laughing at themselves was the right move, because humor does four crucial things: 1) Connect with a new audience Even for people who don’t care about Apache Airflow®, being in on the joke together forms a connection with Astronomer 2) Defuse tension By joining the ridicule,…
Thank you for your interest in Astronomer.
A beautiful scroll cleanse for this wonderful day:
A rare Thread 🧵 Lily, a quiet little girl, entered a police dog auction holding a jar of coins. She wasn’t there out of curiosity—she wanted to bring home Max, the retired police dog who had worked with her late mother, Officer Hannah Parker. After losing her mom, Lily stopped…

In Texas, justice for trafficking victims won’t wait. House Bill 45, authored by Rep. @LaceyHullTx and backed by @CandyNobleHD89, @JaredLPatterson, @leachfortexas, and @willmetcalfTX, ensures that if a trafficking case sits untouched for six months, the Attorney General is…
