Trump orders Navy to fire on Iranian mine-layers

β€œI've ordered the United States Navy to shoot and kill any boats, small boats, though they may be, their naval ships are all, 159 of them at the bottom of the sea. That is, they're putting mines in the water, in the Strait of Hormuz. There is to be no hesitation. Additionally, our minesweepers are clearing the strait right now. I'm hereby ordering that activity to continue, but at a tripled up level.”

Ilhan Omar snaps over $30 million accounting discrepancy

β€œIlhan Omar, just a rough week, man. People have been going on tour, asking her questions and you can see her temper. 'I don't have to do shit' is what she says. She curses. And Ilhan Omar, they made a minor $30 million minor accounting mistake. Some people do that every day, but this is a rough week when people are asking how you need to explain this to the American people.”

Newsom homelessness spending fails to deliver results

β€œWhen did Newsom become the governor of the state of California? From 151,000 people to 187,000 people in 2024. Look at the plus minus. Plus 36,000 people. Investors gave you $24 billion to fix a big problem. You wasted your investors' money and you didn't fix the problem. Newsome's plus minus numbers are horrible. There's no way to measure this to give this guy anything but an F.”

Ken Griffin threatens to pull NYC project over taxes

β€œWe're about to commence the redevelopment of 350 Park Avenue, creating 6,000 highly paid construction jobs and supporting the creation of more than 15,000 permanent jobs in Midtown, New York. The project, if we move forward, will entail more than 6 billion dollars of spending. So a dumb policy that he comes up with could end up costing 15,000 New Yorkers a permanent job and 6,000 construction workers in New York. Double dumb.”

Meta and Microsoft layoffs highlight AI displacement

β€œMeta fires 10% of their workforce. Microsoft announced they're also letting go of 7,000 employees. As they're investing more and more into AI, they're starting to realize that many of the jobs can be done by AI. Like AI is almost becoming as good of a coder as a great coder is. You better learn how to use AI. This is a reality when average salaries are $379,000 at Meta.”

Mystery surrounding missing American scientists remains serious

β€œThere's been a recent spout of a lot of NASA scientists dying in mysterious ways in a short amount of time, all related to very specific things, propulsion, space exploration, and nuclear programs, which is with high clearances, high military clearances, to the point where it's actually being looked at now seriously. I find the story just very weird because truth is weirder than fiction in this case. Anything is possible.”

Poland security policies lead to record tourism safety

β€œGDP growth in Poland grew 3%, while the EU was 1.1. Poland has the lowest crime in the world. They have no sex education to minors in Poland. They get 28 million foreign tourists coming in to Poland because it's so safe. Whoever on the Republican Party, RNC, whatever it is, create a one-liner of every single one of Newsome's failures and put it on repeat, blast it, and promote it everywhere starting now.”

Congressional approval ratings hit record all-time lows

β€œ86% of Americans disapprove of Congress. That is tied with November of 2013 for the all-time high. As I said, Congress usually hated, but usually not this hated. You're actually managing to tie records. Just 10% of Americans approve of the job that Congress is doing. So therefore, as I said, stand up and give yourselves a round of applause. You managed to do it. Congratulations.”
