I’m out of the Republican Party. I’m for small govt, America First and conservative values. I ran for office as a Republican, 20 of my last 20 donations are to Republicans- including $60k to Trump - but I’m out. Zero interest the Trump/ Lindsay Graham/ McConnell MIGA party.

Yes I’m a Republican and really did donate $60k to Trump. We supporters didn’t flip on Trump - he betrayed us and everything he said he stood for. I never supported the Lindsay Graham wing of the Republican Party - I’m on the Massie / Liberty side so only supported Trump after the nomination — he’s been a complete disaster.

More footage of the “No Kings” rally in Portsmouth NH today. I highly recommend discussing / challenging (& sometimes trolling) people you disagree with if you are able to. 🧵 👇 1/ this woman was louder than most but pretty representative of the depth of the crowd:

“I went with Trump’s delegation to Riyadh. I was there with Elon, David Sacks and others. When Trump said he’s finally end neocon policies of war, I wanted to believe him. I cheered louder than anyone in that room. It was my proudest moment as an American. It was all a lie.”

“It’s called ‘Israeli carry’ when you have no round in the chamber. You have to chamber the round. It’s much safer for you but slow. A tactical disadvantage. It’s named for Israel where it’s really not a tactical disadvantage if all you do is shoot unarmed women and children.”

Did Epstein influence Bitcoin core development? Short answer: No. This is not how Bitcoin works. Here’s what happened: Epstein donated to MIT Media Lab…who in turn supported MIT Digital Currency Initiative…which in turn funded Bitcoin developers. These devs used to be funded by The Bitcoin Foundation (which I used to run as volunteer Executive Director) there are many devs and no dev or team had power or control over Bitcoin. Under MIT’s patronage the devs had the same deal they had with us at The Bitcoin Foundation: that they could work on the code and not have direction from the org. More importantly — how Bitcoin works is that *even if* a dev was compromised then the nodes and miners would still have to run that code to make it included in Bitcoin. So for example if I had somehow asked the devs paid by Bitcoin Foundation to “add 1000 coins for Bruce” 1) they wouldn’t have done this / it would have been counter to our agreement 2) no miners would run that code & no nodes would recognize it. It would be a laughing stock and completely rejected. Does this mean code dev is not an attack vector? No. It’s still a risk. Particularly with nation state style actors and very careful efforts to co-opt which are much more sophisticated than “give Bruce coins” or something. This is one reason I’m cautious of Bitcoin core funding - especially from actors who’ve had bad judgment in the past. I think we should be cautious of who does the dev and view it as an attack vector. Bitcoin code is transparent and has lots of eyes on it. So in this case especially there isn’t even a solid accusation, let alone evidence that MIT directed nefarious code changes. If that was an allegation the first question should be: well what code specifically did MIT direct and what proof is there and how was it harmful? I think claims around this would collapse. There’s obviously plenty to criticize about Epstein and MIT working with him — and when it comes to digital assets MIT’s work with Gensler and especially its work on CBDCs is much more suspect than the chance that malicious code was pushed through on Bitcoin. Be cautious but this is a nothing burger

The truth about Muslims and Islam. Based on my experience as a service member, veteran, former government contractor and economic analyst who has visited and lived and worked in Muslim countries and met thousands of Muslims. Here’s what I believe is the truth about Islam and Muslims:

Went to the town council meeting last night and referred to the town manager as a “petty tyrant”. Town council lost their minds, one tried to censor, another paused the meeting and a third (shown here) screamed like a maniac. Amazing how triggered some people are by words. 😂

President Trump’s Saudi Arabia Speech: An End to US Neo Con War Hawk Aggression and a New Era for Saudi Arabia and the Middle East ——————— The speech given by President Trump yesterday in Riyadh by invitation of HRH Mohamed bin Salman was one of the most significant US Presidential speeches of the last 25 years: a shift from the US globalist style policy of aggression and military misadventures to one of peace and prosperity. I feel fortunate to have been there in person to support this vision. The speech and direction for US policy works perfectly with the major reforms and strides that have been made over the last five years in Saudi Arabia under the leadership of HRH Mohammed bin Salman, also known as MBS. MBS has an incredible and bold vision for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and his people. For years he has been executing that vision with massive results. My first trip here was 18 years ago. The changes over this time, especially in the last five years, are striking. Saudi Arabia is using its natural cultural resources, its energy resources and its highly educated and motivated population to build an incredibly successful and diverse economy — all while retaining their national identity and religious and cultural values. This fits perfectly with the vision of President Trump to end the dismally failed US policies of aggression in the Middle East in favor of a rising tide that will lift all boats: a relationship of mutual benefit, not of destruction. It’s time we end the bombs and bullets and replace them with handshakes, deals, cultural exchange and prosperity. Sadly, my country has been responsible for significant problems in this region over the last several decades. Our military aggression cost the lives of over a million Iraqis and thousands of our own troops who died for a non-Constitutional misadventure fueled by the forever war military industrial complex that President Eisenhower warned us about. What the President indicated this week is that the era of the neocons and other violent globalist agendas is over for the United States and soon over for the world. We will lift sanctions on Syria, we will welcome trade, we will provide expertise and investment and, God willing, we will see the rise of the most peaceful and prosperous Middle East the world has ever seen. I am the most proud of my country I have ever been and the most enthusiastic about Saudi Arabia and the region that I’ve ever been. God bless the USA, God bless Saudi Arabia, God bless the Middle East and may God bless the world. 🇺🇸 🇸🇦 ❤️ #TrumpInKSA #SaudiUSForum2025

For those asking - here is an angle showing the reactions of the Town Council & His Royal Highness Town Administrator Todd Selig Selig is paid over $300k in salary & benefits & has 3 months annual vacation. He never has to run for election & has held his position for 17 years.

Another angle & better audio, Speaking to the Town Council wearing an English Lord’s wig: “The role of the commoners is to serve as Tax Milk Cows: to work and labor and toil at their dreary jobs to earn money to give to you. Your role is to spend their money with wild abandon.”

Banks and Paper Bitcoin: “We don't want that centralization. It's not a victory. It's not what we are here for. We're here to replace these guys. We don't need them. They came to this kicking and screaming after a decade of making fun of us. They are not here because they like this. They're here because we beat them year after year after year after year for a decade. We said, "We have the best performing asset in the last 100 years and you're not allowing people to do it." They didn't come here for cypherpunk values. They came here to grift and make a buck. They don't care about our values. They're not a victory. They need us more than we need them. Personally, I recommend that everybody tell them to go pound sand and go and take self-custody and self-sovereignty and replace them, grind them into the dust. That's what we were supposed to do with this industry.”

Today I went to SEC headquarters in Washington DC to call for the resignation of Chairman Gary Gensler. Securities are the lifeblood of the economy. Securities is my industry and has been for my whole life. It is deeply important to me and it is crucial to the American people and the world to rid the space of bad actors. Chair Gensler is a bad actor. Chair Gensler’s oversight and ties with fraudster SBF, his placing of woke partisan ESG politics and personal cabinet ambitions above the Constitution, his capricious and ham-handed handling of the digital assets space and his lack of transparency harm the industry and harm the American economy. I want bad actors out of my industry.

Where are we now in this Fourth Turning? - Trump has crossed a rubicon of insanity. - Israel’s behavior is and has been unacceptable. - The US-Israel relationship is radically out of balance. We must set these things right for the sake of America. A recap and a message for all:

The truth about Muslim immigration. Does Muslim immigration cause crime? This is the popular meme. But it’s just not true. Here’s a walkthrough video. It’s easy to show why this claim is not true by simply looking at a place like UAE: massive Muslim immigration, including from poor countries and countries with low education. Why is this? Simple. Because in UAE they do a great job at the core government function of protecting life, liberty and property. In woke hell holes like the UK, EU and California the leftist governments do a horrible job at protecting citizens and they essentially allow crime. In the UK and EU more poor immigrants tend to be Muslim - in California they tend to be Christian - yet we don’t blame Christianity for the rampant crime in California. Whether the EU, UK or Massachusetts or California- the issue is bad politicians neglecting their responsibilities - it’s not due to religion. The politicians want you to blame the immigrants for their failings. The UAE and many other areas prove that the fault is the politicians not the immigrants. It’s certainly not religious based. If you have solid respect of property rights and good enforcement you can have almost no crime. This is the way.
