Older American explains “How the middle class was destroyed” “In 1978, I worked in a steel mill. I was getting paid between $16 and $18 an hour in a steel mill. My house payment was $125 a month. I was doing well. Then we started not putting tariffs on... China Steel, steel coming in from China and other countries. They were supplementing their industry, and they took our steel industry away from us. So I lost my job. They shut the mill down, and then I had to go figure it out. At the time, I was married with three kids, and this was in the 80s, early 80s, and I had to figure it out. I couldn't get a job that was going to pay sufficient for. To be able to survive. So I had to create my own businesses, and I've done that ever since. But it was the taking of the steel mills from this country and all these others that they've taken the auto industry and everything else that's killed our economy. Now you start making a fair playing field is what Mr. Trump is doing. President Trump is doing. Those jobs will come back, people will start making money. And you say, oh, well, you know, now we're not going to get cheap products. Now we're not going to get cheap products. But all the money that we're paying those countries for those cheap products will stay in this country and we will start manufacturing and we will have those jobs that pay good again. You'll see.”show more

this guy gets it—globalists gutted the middle class, shipping steel jobs to China while elites got richer. Tariffs are the weapon to fight back, like Trump’s doing now, bringing manufacturing home. Yeah, prices might spike short-term, but that money stays here, rebuilding our industries, our communities. The working man’s been screwed long enough by the establishment. This is economic nationalism, America First, not cheap junk from overseas.

No easier or surer way to wipe out a middle class than through government created inflation.

I am personally tired of "cheap" products because they are just that "cheaply made." Our appliances, clothes, household items etc. all garbage. We spend far more because we have to purchase 3 times more often.

He gets it! Yay! Wish every libtard would watch this, but they’d probably just find an excuse to bash it - like ‘he’s racist’ or a ‘Nazi’. Or in the MAGA Cult. They’re exhausting.

Western Europe and East Asia was rebuilt off the backs of America's middle class. The largest wealth transfer in the history of mankind. And our own politicians did it to us.

So many American families were upended by the collapse of domestic industries. It's not just about jobs - it’s about dignity, community, and opportunity.

Trump shared that a steel magnate wanted to kiss him over the tariffs “They produce steel products, and I said, 'How’s it going? Nice to meet you. How’s it going, Mr. President?' He said, 'I’d like to kiss you.' This is a very influential man — a very strong man. I don’t want this man kissing me, but he’s very influential, a strong man. He’s been in the steel industry for many years. His father started the business. And he said, 'Sir, I want to kiss you.' I asked, 'Why?' He said, 'Because we were working just one hour a week, and then you put in tariffs, and all that foreign junk they were dumping into our country stopped.'"

George Lucas on how he had to reluctantly write the screenplay for 'American Graffiti' (1973) & the confidence he gained from the movie's success: "When I was doing 'American Graffiti' (1973) I was still struggling with my ‘I don’t want to be a writer’ syndrome. I had some good friends of mine that I wanted to write the screenplay, but it took me like two years just to get the money to do a screenplay. And I got a little tiny amount of money and—which I had to go actually to the Cannes Film Festival to get on my own. So finally I got this money. I called back and I said, you know, “I got the money. We can start working on the screenplay.” And they said, “Oh, we don’t want to do that now. We’ve got our own low-budget picture off the ground and we can’t write it.” I said, “Oh no.” I said, “What am I going to do? I am in Europe and I’m not going to be back for like three months and I want to get this thing off the ground.” So they recommended another student from school that I knew pretty well. I had a story treatment that laid out the entire story scene by scene, so I called him over the phone from London and I said, “Do you want to do this?” And he said, “Okay.” The person I was working with at that time as a producer made a deal with him for the whole money because there wasn’t very much. It was so tiny that he could only get him to do it for the whole amount of money. When I came back from England, the screenplay was a completely different screenplay from the story treatment. It was more like 'Hot Rods to Hell' (1967). It was very fantasy-like, with playing chicken and things that kids didn’t really do. I wanted something that was more like the way I grew up. So I took that and I said, “Okay. Now here I am. I’ve got a deal to turn in a screenplay. I’ve got a screenplay that is just not the kind of screenplay I want at all and I have no money.” And, I spent the very last money I had saved up to go to Europe to make the deal, so I had nothing. That was a very dark period for me so I sat down myself and wrote the screenplay. After I did 'American Graffiti', and it was successful, it was a big moment for me because I really did sit down with myself and say, “Okay, now I am a director. Now I know I can get a job. I can work in this industry, and apply my trade, and express my ideas on things and be creative in a way that I enjoy. Even if I end up doing TV commercials or something, or I fall back into what I really love is documentaries. I’ll be able to do it. I know I can get a job somewhere. I know I can raise money somewhere. I know I can do what I want to do.” That was a very good feeling. At that point, I’d made it. There wasn’t anything in my life that was going to stop me from making movies."

Tom Cruise reveals how he kept Hollywood working during COVID: calling rival studios and saying 'we're shooting our movies' “Well, what I did was is basically, yeah, I did. Because look, my friends, it's not just about the films I'm making.” “And then I called back a week later and I was like, 'How's it going?' They said, 'Oh yeah, we're shooting our films.' I said, 'Cuz we're coming out next summer, you know. So we're on this date. I hope you're not on this date.'” “Then I called the studio that I was working with. I said, 'Look, all these guys are making movies. We got to make movies.'” “I was calling like, 'We have to set up the rules. Let's make agreements so that we can get back to work.' And then I was calling governments and getting agreements with them. And then I was telling, sharing it with the other studios and my friends saying, 'This is how we're doing it.'” “And just kind of saying, 'My crew is going to get paid during this time.' I just kept everybody working.” “Our orchestra for Top Gun Maverick, we were able to get mics to people's apartments all over the world where they're recording their instruments and then combining those instruments to create a live orchestra.”

I haven't heard this interview before today... It's very interesting.. Donald Trump - September 11, 2001 - Radio Interview “This country is different today, and it's going to be different than it ever was for many years to come.” Radio Host: Donald, you're probably the best-known builder, particularly of great buildings in the city. There's a great deal of question about whether or not the damage and the ultimate destruction of the buildings was caused by the airplanes, by architectural defect, or possibly by bombs or aftershocks. Do you have any thoughts on that? Donald Trump: Well, it wasn't architectural defect. You know, the World Trade Center was always known as a very, very strong building. Don't forget, that took a big bomb in the basement. Now, the basement is the most vulnerable place, because that's your foundation. And it withstood that. And I got to see that area about three or four days after it took place, because one of my structural engineers actually took me for a tour, because he did the building. And I said, I can't believe it. The building was standing solid, and half of the columns were blown out of itself. This was an unbelievably powerful building. If you know anything about structure, it was one of the first buildings that was built from the outside. You had the steel. The reason the World Trade Center had such narrow windows is that in between all the windows, you had the steel on the outside. You had the steel on the outside of the building. That's why when I first looked, and you had big, heavy I-beams. When I first looked at it, I couldn't believe it, because there was a hole in the steel. And this is steel that was, you remember the width of the windows of the World Trade Center, folks? I think, you know, if you were ever up there, they were quite narrow. And in between was this heavy steel. I said, how could a plane, even a plane, even a 767 or a 747 or whatever it might have been, how could it possibly go through the steel? I happen to think that they had not only a plane, but they had bombs that exploded almost simultaneously, because I just can't imagine anything being able to go through that wall. Most buildings are built with the steel that's on the inside around the elevator shaft. This one was built from the outside, which is the strongest structure you can have. And it was almost just like a can of soup. Radio Host: You know, Donald, we were looking at pictures all morning long of that plane coming into Building No. 2, and when you see that approach the far side, and then all of a sudden, within a matter of a millisecond, the explosion pops out the other side. Donald Trump: Right. I just think that it was a plane with more than just fuel. I think, obviously, they were very big planes. They were going very rapidly, because I was also watching where the plane seemed to be not only going fast, it seemed to be coming down into the building. So it was getting the speed from going downhill, so to speak. It just seemed to me that to do that kind of destruction is even more than a big plane, because you're talking about taking out steel, the heaviest caliper steel that was used on the building. I mean, these buildings were rock solid. And, you know, it's just an amazing, amazing thing. This country is different today, and it's going to be different than it ever was for many years to come. Radio Host: Very profound statement, and very true.

Former p*rn star, Brittni De La Mora, worked in the adult film industry for years. She found Jesus and escaped. She shares the dark realities of pornography and the industry: “When I first started off in the industry, the reason why I was getting booked so much is because I was 18 years old, and I looked like a little girl. They would put me in pigtails, costume jewelry, and schoolgirl outfits, and have me say, “Oh, I’m barely 18.” One day, a light flickered in me, and I was like, “Do you guys realize this is encouraging pedophilia?” I had to go to my agent, and I told him, “Hey, I cannot do these scenes anymore. Do not book me for these.” It was like I was doing them, and something just hit me where I was like, “This is wrong. This is not okay.” Now that I’m out, I see that pornography really is a drug. It releases so much dopamine in your brain, and eventually what you watch does not satisfy you anymore. So now you have to go reenact those things in real life. It starts off with hiring escorts, and then, you know, that’s not enough. Then people begin doing things to children, and we see that all over. It’s sickening. I truly blame pornography for that, because what they’re watching, they’re feeding their soul. Then they start craving that, because eventually it’s just not enough anymore. I saw a documentary of a guy who had 6,000 images of child pornography when he was raided. It is sickening. It breaks my heart. It angers me. But he started off watching the ‘morally acceptable’ scenes: the husband and wife and then started watching the young 18-year-old with the older man. Eventually, that wasn’t enough.”

Trump: I will not be abandoning the farmers. We are strong on the borders and for the farmers and others in the hotel industry. We have similar situations and Kristi and I will be working with the states and we will work something where the farmers and be responsible. They have had people around for 10 or 15 years and they know them well, we will put them responsible, and issue a form of card or documents and the farmer will be responsible for these people. They will not have citizenship but they will be working and paying taxes. We need to get our farmers the people they need or else the farmers will not be able to do their land. It was tried when there was a very strong guy, and he got everybody out, and every farm almost in the country but every farm in California or Iowa went bankrupt and they had nobody to work and we do not want that situation. We will put our farmers and others in charge of the people that they have under them. They know the people and it will work out well. We will take care of our farmer but to get the criminals out. Go ahead.

People are freaking out and overreacting to the tariffs because they are NOT informed. This gentlemen explains. “I think it could be the best thing that has happened to this country in 135 years….in 1890 there was no sales tax, there was no income tax, there was no property tax, there was only tariffs on what was coming into the country and in 1890, the Congress had to convene a special commission to figure out what to do with the surplus money.” Will it happen overnight? Nope. It will take time but as other countries start feeling the pinch or the loss of the American market, a real free trade market will emerge and prices will come down. President Trump will not flinch first.

"When we were living as refugees, we went to many places telling the international community that Rwanda was our home and that we wanted to return. Some people would come and raise the matter with the government that was in power here. The response they received was that Rwanda was too small and that there was no place for us to go. Imagine being told there is no place for you in the very country you came from. You cannot tell someone to remain where they are, to spend their entire life as a refugee, and for their children to grow up as refugees as well. I used to tell people, even at the beginning of our liberation struggle, that whatever treatment we received in the countries where we lived, they were not the people I had a grievance against. After all, it was my own country that had denied me the right to return because it claimed there was no room for me. The people I had a grievance against were those who had the responsibility to guarantee my rights in my own country, but instead denied them. Those were the people we had to confront. And that is exactly what happened." President Kagame | Indangamirwa 16th Cohort #MeetThePresident

I used to tell people, even at the beginning of our liberation struggle, that whatever treatment we received in the countries where we lived, they were not the people I had a grievance against. After all, it was my own country that had denied me the right to return because it claimed there was no room for me. The people I had a grievance against were those who had the responsibility to guarantee my rights in my own country, but instead denied them. Those were the people we had to confront. And that is exactly what happened." President Kagame | Indangamirwa 16th Cohort #MeetThePresident

Tony Hawk reveals turning down $500,000 from Activision was the best financial decision of his life "When they were close to launching the game, they started to sense that there was buzz about it. It was already getting good reviews from previews and they felt this surge of interest" "They offered me a buyout of future royalties right before the game launched. They offered me half a million dollars. They said you get that right now and then no money going forward" "No one had ever spoken those types of numbers to me before, but I felt like I was in a pretty good place. I was doing well in other ways. I was still skating a lot, doing events, I had good endorsements, and I thought I'm gonna take a risk and I don't need that money right now"

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump tells the story of how he was under the US Steel Building during 9/11 and firemen had to RUSH him out in case it collapsed "They grabbed me under the arms, they got to get out of here and they literally lifted me up. This is not easy to do. I'm big. They lifted me up and they started running with me." "I want to just thank my people. I took a lot of my, I was building a big building in New York and I took the whole crew down there right after this happened and they were, they had no hesitation." "Everybody went down with me. We went down as a big group of people. Wasn't too much we could do." "I'll be honest, it was raw, nobody's seen anything like it ever. We had other buildings, United States Steel Building was creaking, really creaking and we thought it was going to fall down. The truth is it creaked a lot, it creaked, it still creaks." "But it never came down and I'll never forget two firemen. We thought it was coming down on top of us and two firemen, big strong guys and I'm not the smallest guy in the world!" "I said, fellas I can run myself, but they were amazing, but they thought it was coming down and didn't come down at US Steel."

Take 3 minutes and watch this! RFK Jr. responds to the Trump assassination attempt with a call for national unity: “I think we all need to take a breath now and step back and see that this is the product of so much vigil and so much anger and that when we release that kind of anger into the universe, it inevitably comes back and reverberates with these kind of consequences. All all of us now have to start looking at each other and saying, ‘we're all Americans and we're better than this. This isn't the way that we want our country to look to our children and look to people around the world.’ We need to stop hating on each other. We need to stop telling other people in the world that the other guy is going to destroy the republic. We need to recognize we're all Americans. We all love our country. It's time now to pray for the president, pray for his family, for President Trump, and to start being kind to each other and to start being generous to each other and to resist all of the implications that we continue in this kind of vitriolic way. Let's have an election. Let's go forward as Americans. Let's love each other. Let's trust each other, and let's rebuild this country as a community.” “Somebody in my group showed me a text message, and then we turned on the television and we watched it as the story was evolving. I've been through this before with my own family. I was with my dad. He died in Los Angeles. I understand the implications that this has for our country, and probably as well as anybody does. I think my message to people is we need to all renounce violence. We need to renounce not just violence, but the hatred and vitriol, and we need to stop marginalizing each other. Let’s have a dialogue with each other about doing that and a conversation and a debate. When my uncle was ill in 1963, there was this kind of division again. There was this kind of hatred when my father was ill. It was in the midst of a time that was probably the most divisive in American history at that time since the American Civil War, and we're back into that kind of milieu today. We all need to take responsibility for it. When we pose something that is mean-spirited, that is condemnatory, that is poisonous towards somebody else, we're contributing to this atmosphere of violence.”

President Trump to WHCA president/CBS correspondent Weijia Jiang Jiang: “We'll do a couple, and then we go to the chief – Madam Chairman, I just want to say you did a fantastic job. What a beautiful evening. And we're going to reschedule. [APPLAUSE] And after that, it's very tough for her to ask a killer question. Right. But you have done a fantastic job. Please. Jiang: “Mr. President, I appreciate it. As you mentioned, it all happened so quickly and I wonder, especially because unfortunately you have experience with these sorts of threats in that moment when you realize there was a threat and Service agents were telling us to get down. Can you describe what was going through your mind, how you were feeling in that moment? Trump: “It's a very good question, actually. It was -- it's always shocking when something like this happens. It happened to me a little bit and that never changes. The fact we're sitting right next to each other, the First Lady on my right, and I heard a noise and sort of thought it was a tray. I thought it was a tray going down. I've heard that many times, and it was pretty loud noise, and it was from quite far away. He hadn't breached the area at all. They really got him, but – so it was quite far away. But it was a gun. And some people really understood that pretty quickly. Other people didn't. I was watching to see what was happening. Probably should have gone down even faster. Melania was very cognizant, I think, of what happened. I think she knew immediately what happened. She was saying, that's a bad noise. And, we were whisked away along with other people, but we were really whisked away. And again, the performance of the secret service and the police, all of the law enforcement, I thought was really good. So, it was very quick. There wasn't a lot of time to be thinking, because it was a matter of seconds before we were out the door and gone into an area we very much. And you wanted to too – you very much wanted to continue it because I don't like to let these sick people, these thugs, these horrible, horrible people change the fabric of our life, change the course of what we do. So, we held out. You were there. We held out right till the end. But they didn't want to take a chance. And I understand it was protocol, but we're going to be doing one hopefully within the next 30 days or sooner. And I am ready, willing and able. And I was all set to really rip it. And I said to my people, this would be the most inappropriate speech ever made if I said – so I'll have to save it. I don't know if I can ever be as rough as I was going to be tonight. I think I'm going to be probably very nice. I'll be very boring the next time, but we're going to have a great event. And you did a fantastic job. Thank you very much.”

🚨Governor DeSantis MOCKS the Florida GOP and their pathetic Chairman for RIGGING the primary and LYING to voters by pulling a BAIT AND SWITCH! Says SPECIAL INTERESTS are choosing our candidate! “They do this summit and they say we're gonna do a debate, a governor debate. All right, so people like signed up thinking that they'd have this debate and they said NO CANDIDATE CAN DO ANY OTHER DEBATE EXCEPT OUR DEBATE and then they say oh, well only ONE GUY can debate so we're not gonna have a debate! I mean, I think people feel that that's a BAIT-ND-SWITCH! The party's job is NOT to try to engineer an outcome. The Party's job is to inform Republican voters and and try to increase participation. I know when I was running in 2018, this is the fact, I mean most of the people in the RPOF were not for me in the primary. I mean, that's just the reality and so it is what it is. If you don't ever have debates then the only way to get known is basically the person that raises the most money from special interests. And then you spend money to do it and if you're not able to do that, then you don't even get known to begin with and that's challenging. And I know when I ran in 2018, I got outspent probably three to one and I think having certainly the June debate that we did was a huge, huge thing to be able to inform people about who I was, what my background was, all these other things. So I think there should be debates generally. I don't think the party has any right to control the debates but I think how this was handled, you've got to be on the up and up here and you say you could do debate, do a debate! If you're gonna say other candidates can't do any other debate, but our debate, well, you definitely got to do the debate, right? So it has not been I think done properly and look, I mean, voters can make decisions about how they think of all that.”

I love Elon Musk's old interviews. I really enjoy hearing what he said back then, knowing what the future holds. This "CBS Sunday Morning" interview was recorded in 1998, when then 27-year-old Elon talked about starting his first company: “That was the summer of '95. I had no money whatsoever. I was working, doing research in Silicon Valley on a completely different subject and trying to start this company at the same time. And when it came time to decide do I want to do graduate studies or do I want to start this company and I decided to start the company. I had no money. As a graduate student, I would have received a scholarship and a stipend and so forth. In starting the company, I had nothing. I had no income source. So we found that an office was actually cheaper than an apartment in Silicon Valley. So we got this dinky little office that had a leaky roof. It was just the nastiest place you can imagine. And you lived in it. And I lived in it too and showered at the YMCA. This lasted for about three or four months. And the reason we chose this office, in addition to it being really cheap, was that there was an internet service provider on the floor below. So we were able to get really cheap internet access by drilling a hole in the floor and connecting to their server directly.”
