Kyle Juszczyk was asked to describe the 49ers season: “It was a successful season. Obviously I’m gonna catch flack. Someone is gonna say 'how’s it successful you didn’t win the Super Bowl?'. Well 31 teams don’t win the Super Bowl. Are we all unsuccessful? No, I don’t think so. I think you’re always building toward something. I think if we’re being realistic about the season we were headed into, we knew we were gonna have to rely on a lot of new people. They were gonna have to have to step up and play in roles that they have never been asked to do. It was gonna be one of those seasons where we just needed to figure it out… Then you tack on all the injuries we had to find out what era are we going into with the Niners. I think with all the adversity that we had to deal with and we won 12 the season games. We won a Wild Card game against the defending Champions, it’s hard for me not to say it wasn’t a successful season.” via: Rich Eisen Show

NEW LONG FORM VIDEO: Why people are starting to hate Disney World So I’m 51 now, and one of the things I remember vividly from my childhood is watching big sporting events like the Super Bowl or the World Series. At the end of the game, the winning players would be celebrating, getting interviewed, and they’d always be asked the same question: What are you going to do next? And the answer was almost always the same: I’m going to Disney World. But fast forward 30 years, and you don’t hear that anymore. In fact, the conversation has shifted in the opposite direction. Today, YouTube and social media are filled with people criticizing Disney’s parks, whether in California or Florida. When I was a kid, going to a Disney park was a rite of passage. My parents once drove us across six states just so we could spend spring break there. Now, for many families, the parks feel like an afterthought. And it turns out this shift isn’t an accident. It’s the result of deliberate strategy, changing economics, and some unusual decisions inside the Disney corporation. This is the story behind the rise and fall of Disney World.

Kirk Cousins says Joe Flacco was the blueprint behind the NFL contract strategy that has earned him $339,000,000 in guaranteed money “I remember sitting at the Super Bowl after my rookie year and Joe Flacco was about to be a free agent. He was also the quarterback in the Super Bowl, and we sat there. I knew nothing about contracts and my agent said what the Ravens are going to be able to do is either sign him to a long-term deal or they're going to have to franchise tag him twice. The entire negotiation will be based off two franchise tags and what those two franchise tags are worth. That's what they'll have to negotiate off of’” “I didn't know four years later I'd be in a similar spot where I'd finish my season, be coming to free agency, and my agent just said, ‘This is Joe Flacco all over again. It's a two-year franchise tag that'll be the foundation of any negotiation.’ He said, ‘What I'd like to do is, because I see those two years being basically guaranteed, I'd like to just do a three-year deal fully guaranteed’” “He offered that to the team, and obviously they were not interested in that model. He just said, ‘Okay, then we'll do the two franchise tags, and two years from now, we'll go to free agency and try to get that same deal, a three-year deal fully guaranteed’” “I think I was in a great spot because I had great players around me, great coaches around me, and was in a place where I felt I could have success. I didn't feel like I needed to just take a deal. I think sometimes as a player you take a deal because you're concerned about maybe your play going down. I thought, ‘No, I think I'm going to keep improving, and I've got great people around me.’ So I'm okay going year to year. Certainly it worked out”

Jon hamm says meeting Tom cruise for the first time felt like a prank. “I first met Tom Cruise at Jimmy Kimmel’s house. Jimmy would have these big Sunday football gatherings with comedy writers, comics, actors, kegs, pizzas, the whole thing.” “The rumor was going around, ‘Tom Cruise is supposed to come by today.’ We were like, ‘No way. That’s like saying Santa Claus is coming.’” “Jimmy, famously, is a big prankster. So you’d be a fool to think that was actually going to happen.” “Then the doorbell rings, and sure enough, it’s Tom Cruise with his mom. we’re all having this out-of-body experience. Arguably the most famous person on the planet is sitting in this living room watching nine football games at once.” “That’s how I met Tom. I said maybe five words to him” “Then, 10 years later, I’m driving and my phone rings. It’s my agent: ‘They want you for a part in the Top Gun sequel.’” “I said, ‘Well, then the answer is yes.’ He started talking about the money and details, and I said, ‘No, no, no. The answer is yes. Work out the details. If this goes away, you’re all fired.’” “Top Gun was one of my favorite movies growing up. So to go back to being 13 or 14 years old in 1985 and get asked to be part of the next chapter, with basically all my scenes being with Tom Cruise, I was like, ‘This is a no-brainer.’”

“I just go out and play ball. I don’t think about being a white guy playing corner.” Cooper DeJAWN 🦅 Eagles cornerback There’s quite a few nicknames that come to mind when someone says, Cooper DeJean… but the one universal he will forever go by now is: Super Bowl Champion. Fresh off Philadelphia’s victory parade and a few celebration wounds, Cooper, who we call one helluva of a football player, is sitting with Ryan Clark Fred Taylor Channing Crowder to talk about his unlikely path from small town Iowa to NFL superstar to household name all in his first season. Inspired by the focus of Jalen Hurts and leadership of Saquon Barkley , Cooper found his role on this talented Eagles roster and surpassed expectations. Although it will be hard to top any future birthdays as Cooper’s pick six of Patrick Mahomes came as the rookie cornerback turned 22, he is still adjusting to the magnitude of that moment and how helping secure the Lombardi trophy for Philadelphia has forever etched his name in NFL history not just for that play against the Kansas City Chiefs but as an intricate part of the Philadelphia Eagles defense all season. Tap into this conversation for a lot of laughs, a story of humble beginnings and true heart of champion… Episode streaming now on all audio platforms and YouTube #NFL #Philadelphia #SuperBowl2025 #pivot #Podcast #eagles #iowa #defense #cooperdejean

THE OVAL OFFICE BETRAYAL: TRUMP’S "PEARL HARBOR" ATTACK ON JAPAN 🚨 They want you to believe in a "Global Alliance." The truth? Our allies are being treated like conquered subjects and "surprise" punchlines in the Oval Office. 🕵️‍♂️ THE PLAYERS - Subject: The humiliation of PM Sanae Takaichi - The Victims: 125 million Japanese citizens - The Villains: The Central Bank-Military Industrial Complex THE ULTIMATE INSULT (💀) The mask didn't just slip—it was shredded. When asked why he kept Japan in the dark regarding the Iran strikes, Trump looked PM Takaichi in the eye and snapped: WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME ABOUT PEARL HARBOR? It gets darker—insiders claim he couldn't even remember her name, dismissively calling her MISS BROTHER OF HER and MS. PEARL HARBOR behind closed doors. THE GEOPOLITICAL CAGE (🛡️) Why does Japan swallow this venom? Because they are physically trapped. Boxed in by China and North Korea, they are forced into a toxic, abusive marriage for the nuclear umbrella. They are being gutted from the inside out by a "protector" that views their leader as a disposable joke. THE PATTERN (🔥) This is the 1980s playbook on steroids. Per Richard Werner in PRINCES OF THE YEN, the U.S. and unelected Bank of Japan bureaucrats previously colluded to pump a massive bubble—then intentionally crashed the economy to force "structural reforms." They are doing it again, sacrificing Japanese sovereignty to maintain American dominance. THE EVIDENCE (📊) Werner’s research proves central banks aren't "independent"—they are weapons used to break nations. The full truth is so radioactive that mainstream platforms suppress his uncensored work. Japan is being drained to fund a war machine they never asked for. 📅 THE BOILING POINT: MARCH 19, 2026. 1. Retweet if you stand against geopolitical slavery. 2. Reply with END THE FED. 3.

REBECCA AT AMARIN TV #PraewTalkTVxBecky [AI Translation/EN] 🎤: Did the directors ever say what they found attractive about Becky? Why did they choose you? 🧚‍♀️: If I remember correctly, the whole team said they chose Becky because Becky is different. During the audition, I was different from everyone else who auditioned. Yes—because I interpreted it in my own way, and it just became completely my own style. On the audition day, I actually didn’t know anything, because… they didn’t tell me anything in advance. It was all on the spot—whether it was improvisation or script work, I think I did about three scenes. 🎤: I want to know what they asked you to do there. 🧚‍♀️: There was a pretty difficult improv scene, right? Yes—and that scene later appeared in the series too. It required this kind of… you have to completely break out of your usual way of thinking to improvise, and you really have to step far outside your comfort zone. 🎤: When they asked you to do that, did you feel a lot of pressure? Or did you find it fun and want to show what you could do? 🧚‍♀️: I genuinely found it really fun. I can say that from filming episode one all the way to episode six, I enjoyed it a lot. It was tiring, but it was fun. The tiredness was more on the psychological side—because it feels heavy. From episode one to episode six, you have to keep that mental tension the whole time. There’s a lot of psychological push and pull, a lot of mind games. It gets heavy, so I have to keep reminding myself, “Okay, today is over,” listen to some music, and go back to being normal Becky. Then the next day there’s an event, or I have to go shoot another project—the pace is really fast.

If I paid $51000 for a car and the dealer already cashed the check and had it in the bank for 11 days, I better already have my car. Unlike this dealership who kept pushing back the delivery date and eventually refused to give this gentleman his car he already paid for. To me it sounds like they sold it before he picked it up. I remember during the hurricane Katrina days and I left the insurance office to clear my wind. I just got off a difficult call and I felt so sorry for the insured. I left to go to Panera to get a bread bowl with some broccoli cheddar soup and a nice Sierra Turkey sandwich which was my favorite order. On the way there I spotted a beautiful pearl white new 2005 Cadillac Escalade at the Cadillac dealer. I wasn’t in the market for a new car but I decided to stop and take a look. One thing led to another and I ended up putting a deposit on the car and made an appointment to go back so I can discuss price and purchase. The sales man said I had to put the deposit down on it so they would hold it for me, I didn’t have the time to do it at the moment because I still had to go back to work. I went back on my off day a few days later only to not see it parked out front. I thought to myself maybe they are having it cleaned in anticipation of me buying it today so I didn’t think much of it. The salesman kept saying he will come get me when he was ready, he claimed it was a busy day for him. I kept waiting and waiting only to go back to his office and he wasn’t even there. I asked another employee if they could page him for me, I was getting impatient. That’s when I found out he left. I asked to speak to the sales manager and inquire about the car I put a deposit on and asked if it was being cleaned. He looked it up and told me they sold it two days ago. I said I was there two days ago and was told to put a deposit down on it so they would hold it for me. He said they don’t ever do that unless it’s a special order. He asked to see a receipt and I showed him my receipt given to me by the salesman. He looked confused because he said their receipt are never handwritten, they are always printed with my info, the dealer info, the car vin number and other info. This was just a generic looking paper receipt with my name on it and the amount. But it did have his name on it. They did refund me and asked to show me another car, I told him I was fine and I left. But I did drive an hour out of my way to a different dealer in Cleveland and ended up buying the same spec car from them. I then drove it back to the shady dealer and made them wash it for me since Cadillac offers free car washes for all Cadillacs regardless where I bought it.

The salesman kept saying he will come get me when he was ready, he claimed it was a busy day for him. I kept waiting and waiting only to go back to his office and he wasn’t even there. I asked another employee if they could page him for me, I was getting impatient. That’s when I found out he left. I asked to speak to the sales manager and inquire about the car I put a deposit on and asked if it was being cleaned. He looked it up and told me they sold it two days ago. I said I was there two days ago and was told to put a deposit down on it so they would hold it for me. He said they don’t ever do that unless it’s a special order. He asked to see a receipt and I showed him my receipt given to me by the salesman. He looked confused because he said their receipt are never handwritten, they are always printed with my info, the dealer info, the car vin number and other info. This was just a generic looking paper receipt with my name on it and the amount. But it did have his name on it. They did refund me and asked to show me another car, I told him I was fine and I left. But I did drive an hour out of my way to a different dealer in Cleveland and ended up buying the same spec car from them. I then drove it back to the shady dealer and made them wash it for me since Cadillac offers free car washes for all Cadillacs regardless where I bought it.

Seth Godin gave a masterclass on how to build an unforgettable brand in the age of AI: 1. Marketing is not about spend. It is about creating the conditions for other people to eagerly spread your idea. 2. Authenticity is overrated. What customers actually want is consistency. Show up the same way every single time and that is worth more than any Super Bowl ad. 3. Everything your company does is a marketing decision. How you answer the phone. What you charge. How you design things. Marketing is not a department. It is everything. 4. Trust is simple. Make a promise. Keep it. Especially when it is hard. 5. Successful brands are built with your customers talking about you. Not you talking about you. 6. A brand is not a logo. A brand is a promise. Nike has a brand. Hyatt has a logo. One of them you know exactly what to expect. The other you do not. 7. You are measuring the wrong things. Follower counts. Stock price. Open rates. False proxies will take your business in the wrong direction faster than anything else. 8. Social media followers mean nothing. Godin has 400,000 Instagram followers and says if he posts about a new book maybe 12 people buy it. The number is a distraction. 9. Stop trying to be famous. The goal is not to get more famous. The goal is to get less famous and more trusted. 10. Average marketing reaches average people. Average people will not buy your product. You need the people who will talk about you, challenge you, and eagerly pay more for better. 11. When you pick your customers you pick your future. Stop trying to reach everyone. Start trying to deeply serve someone specific. 12. Better beats louder every time. One guy running a wine email list with 130,000 subscribers does $30 million a year in revenue. No ads. No social media hustle. Just consistently better. 13. The real opportunity with AI is not making things cheaper. It is making things better. The businesses that use AI to deepen relationships will win. The ones using it to cut costs will race to the bottom. 14. Your job is not to do your job. Your job is to solve problems for other people and make things better by making better things. Everything else is just noise. 15. When AI becomes the buyer it will always choose the cheapest option. If your entire business strategy is being the cheapest, AI will destroy you. The only protection is being worth it in ways that cannot be easily measured. 16. The next level of marketing is permission at a depth nobody has achieved before. The brand that knows your tools, your projects, your needs, and shows up to help without being asked will be impossible to replace. 17. Most businesses will use AI to spam more people faster. The businesses that win will use AI to serve fewer people better. That gap is the biggest opportunity in marketing right now. 18. You have a squadron of summer interns available for twenty dollars a month. They are not that good but they are very eager. The businesses learning to be good bosses of AI right now will have an enormous advantage over everyone waiting to figure it out later. 19. The question every business should be asking is not how do I get more attention. It is how do I become the kind of business that people would genuinely miss if it disappeared tomorrow. That answer is your entire marketing strategy.

After his second year at Michigan, Tom Brady wanted to transfer. He wasn’t playing in games, and he was so low on the depth chart that he only got 2 reps in practice. Brady met with his coach to express his frustration, “The other quarterbacks get all the reps.” Coach replied, “Brady, I want you to stop worrying about what all the other players on our team are doing. All you do is worry about what the starter is doing, what the second guy is doing, what everyone else is doing. You don’t worry about what you’re doing.” Coach reminded him, “You came here to be the best. If you’re going to be the best, you have to beat out the best.” And then he recommended that Brady meet Greg Harden, a counselor who worked in the athletic department. Brady went to Harden’s office and whined, “I’m never going to get my chance. They’re only giving me 2 reps.” Harden replied, “Just go out there and focus on doing the best you can with those 2 reps. Make them as perfect as you possibly can.” “So that’s what I did,” Brady said. “They’d put me in for those 2 reps, man, I’d sprint out there like it was Super Bowl 39. ‘Let’s go boys! Here we go! What play we got?’” “And I started to do really well with those 2 reps. Because I brought enthusiasm, I brought energy.” Soon, he was getting 4 reps. Then 10, “and before you knew it,” Brady said, “with this new mindset that Greg had instilled in me—to focus on what you can control, to focus on what you’re getting, not what anyone else is getting, to treat every rep like it’s the Super Bowl—eventually, I became the starter.” Takeaway 1: Greg Harden telling Brady to focus on being great during his 2 reps reminded me of a piece of advice from the entrepreneur Mark Cuban. “People come to me all the time and tell me they’re stuck,” Cuban explained. “They’re stuck in a job they don't like. They’re stuck working for a boss they don’t like. They're stuck on a team they don't like.” “I just tell them, ‘Be great.’” “The reality of life is that you can’t just always quit your job. You can’t just always go to your boss and say, ‘Give me the promotion, or I’m out of here.’” You can’t just always go to your coach and say, ‘Give me more reps, or I'm transferring.’ “So when you’re stuck, you’ve gotta find it within yourself to say, ‘Ok, this is where I am. And if I’m going to be here, I’m going to be great.’ Because if you’re great at your job, typically other people and companies find out, so it creates opportunities.” Takeaway 2: In the field of strategic management, there is a distinction made between “lead measures” and “lag measures.” Lag measures are the results you’re trying to achieve: getting a promotion, winning a championship, being the starting quarterback. Lead measures are the actions that predictably drive those results. The core characteristic of a lead measure, the authors of “The 4 Disciplines of Execution” write, is that “a lead measure can be directly influenced by you.” To achieve your goals, they write (echoing what the Michigan Coach told Brady), “apply a disproportionate energy” to the things that are in your control. Starting at Michigan and for the rest of his career, that’s what Brady did. After he was selected by the New England Patriots with the 199th pick in the 2000 draft, Brady was asked: “Are you aware that [along with starting quarterback, Drew Bledsoe] there’s another quarterback here that they drafted last year?” Brady said he was aware of that, “and I know he’s a heck of a player. But I’ve always concerned myself just with the things I can control. I don’t put a lot of thinking into the other guys because I know I’m not at my best when I’m not just thinking about playing as well as I possibly can.” - - - “I never once in my life ever said I wanted to be the best of all time. Ever. I wanted to be the best I could be, period. I learned that in college. It didn’t matter what the other guys were doing. It didn’t. It mattered what I was doing.” — Tom Brady

🚨 MASSIVE BOMBSHELL: STARGATE COMMAND & THE TOTAL SURVEILLANCE STATE YOU'RE PAYING FOR UNDERNEATH THE BALLROOM In her update yesterday, Drey revealed why the entire weight of the DOJ was deployed Sunday morning after the WHCD shooting to try to get the lawsuit dismissed that's holding up the ballroom's construction. "What's being built under the ballroom is a federal data & AI command facility. It's going to be a hardened, classified, air-gapped processing center sitting inside the executive perimeter that runs AI on the data the federal government is right now consolidating across every single agency." "Healthcare data, identity data, facial data, intelligence data, all of it pulled into one operating system underground inside that one building beyond the reach of Congress, the courts, or any oversight body that could ASK what it's doing." "The story is not what Trump is doing with this facility. It's about what every president after him gets to do with it. No incoming administration of either party is going to take the political risk of unwinding it. The next president inherits the system. The contracts persist, the classifications persist, the integrations persist, and the public NEVER gets to ASK what they actually do." "The lawsuit that the DOJ tried to kill on Saturday night (at the WHCD)—no pun intended—is the only reason that this QUESTION is even being asked at all. And the National Trust luckily refused to drop the lawsuit. And the ANSWER is going to define what every future president is allowed to build in secret with your money and your name without your permission." Friends, they are going for the total digital control grid, and this will be the nerve center for it, integrating the feeds from the massive network of data centers around the country. And it will be done without oversight, transparency, or your approval. But, of course, you WILL get to PAY for it and enjoy your ENSLAVEMENT! This is the crown jewel of $500 Billion Project Stargate. The White House bunker underneath the ballroom is Stargate Command. Remember when they tried to ram through a 10-year moratorium on state-level regulation of AI, but the Senate rejected it? Convenient that they now have this project which avoids any public scrutiny or oversight, whatsoever, don't you think? Everyone who participated in the coordinated ballroom influence campaign wants this for you. For all of us. This treachery cannot be tolerated. Raise hell. And share the heck out of this.

Not gonna lie, I wasn’t planning on posting this—mostly because I was already dealing with shit at the beginning of the year. But back in March, I ran into a streamer named Alexandria during a game of SND on COD. From the jump, we said our usual “helluuuu, you guys sound cute” once we realized there were girls on the other team—something we do often because, let’s be honest, women already deal with enough BS on this game. Throughout the match, they told me to kill myself, said they’d take me “out back and shoot me in the head,” and repeatedly made homophobic remarks. It wasn’t edgy or “just trash talk”—it was fucking insane to comfortably say this to someone no matter who they are. She sat there giggling and laughing at the remarks they were making, saying that she “can’t control them” while they’re in HER STREAM and HER PARTY. What you mean you can’t control them??!?!? KICK THEM, LEAVE THE PARTY. Her rules on her channel literally say “no racism, no sexism, no homophobia” 💀 After the match, they didn’t stop. They kept my stream open for three hours, trashing my appearance, throwing more hate, and obsessively dissecting everything about me. So, I made a low key video about it at the time—which ended up doing pretty well. Naturally, she and her crew found it and started claiming I edited someone else’s voice over her face cam and faked the entire thing 😭 also, my community lurked to listen to her stream but never ONCE typed in her chat or anyone else’s. I even made several statements to not type or open their stream. Then she took to Twitter to say she was the one being targeted and that I was using my platform to “spread hate.” Fast forward to two days ago—we matched with her again on SND. After round one I said, “remember me, Satan?” She tried to play dumb, then immediately backtracked into ranting about the March video and how I allegedly faked the whole thing (again). This time, she was playing with another streamer who seemed chill… until we checked his VOD afterward and, of course, he was throwing around the same homophobic shit. What a surprise 💀 And despite all this, this group still claims I’m the one hating here. According to them, they did nothing wrong and I should be using my community to “spread positivity” instead. Apparently, I’d be so “powerful” if I used my platform that way. Like be fucking forreal, you’re absolutely delusional. Below I’m gonna link the raw files from her VOD, and I’ll upload her tweets into the folder as well if you want to watch it with no edits. It includes the full games and all the after game shit talk, as well as the other streamers POV.

This question and answer from the Pentagon briefing this morning was so thorough and interesting. My friend Jerry Dunleavy IV 🇺🇸 asked a tough, but substantive question. You can ask those in power real questions without it being a "gotcha" or trap.... Dunleavy: “As part of the justification for the war against Iran, the White House has laid out in fairly comprehensive fashion that Iran — the Iranian regime is 47 years of terrorism aimed at the us, including pointing to the IRGC’s provision of weapons and efforts to help kill Americans in Iraq. The Pentagon in 2019 assessed Iran was responsible for the deaths of at least 603 service members in Iraq, but there hasn’t been a similar accounting — public accounting by Iran’s role helping the Taliban in Afghanistan. And that also hasn’t been part of the White House’s public argument. I was wondering if you could speak to Iran’s role in helping the Taliban during the war in Afghanistan. And, chairman, as — as you and the Secretary eloquently spoke, about, 13 U.S. service members have been killed so far during Operation Epic Fury. I was wondering what lessons have been learned from those deaths, both from Iranian strikes from an aircraft refueling accident? How are those lessons being applied to the current conflict, and how are those lessons going to be applied to a potential conflict in Indopacom?” Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Caine: “Thank you.” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: “Well, thank you for the question and it’s — it’s true. In a town that can have a very short memory, President Trump does not. He remembers what this regime — Iranian regime was founded on, what their declaration has been from the beginning death to America, death to Israel. They’ve stated that. they’ve attended to in every way, try to accomplish that, killing Americans in any theater they can. Embassies for a long for quite a long time. In Iraq, that was the deadliest weapon was the EFP, the explosively formed penetrator. I was there when that tactic and technique started to emerge, and the realization was it wasn’t just jihadis putting together one, five, five rounds, daisy chained. It was an entire state, a country with its apparatus — apparatus able to mold steel in a way that was specifically designed to penetrate American armor and kill Americans. This was not, oh, maybe we send him a couple of thoughts about how to build a bomb. This was Iran’s specifically passing technology and wherewithal and personnel into Iraq to kill Americans specifically. I know the number is said to be 600. A lot of us think it’s higher than that, given the amount of capability they brought in. So they have been at war with us, whether we acknowledge it or not, for 47 years. The same goes in Afghanistan. Name the Islamist enemy, whether they are Sunni or Shia, because this is a Shia regime, Sunni or Shia, and Iran’s been willing to harbor them as long as that group is willing to try to kill Americans. So, the enemy of their enemy has been their friend as well. And the Islamist world. So, Iran, whether it’s Iraq, whether it’s Afghanistan, whether it’s around the world, has been targeting Americans and what they wanted in this context — and what President Trump would not tolerate — is a regime of that nature being closer and closer to nuclear capabilities, a capability they would have said they would want to use. And we all believe what our enemies say they would do if they got the most dangerous weapon in the world. So, it’s been across every theater that Iran’s been — been a threat to America.

I won’t share particular tactical lessons. And the KC-135 incident is under investigation. But I do want to talk about how I think about this and how we think about it. And this is something that I’m pretty passionate about. I believe the Joint Force has to be a very fast learning organization early, often and always. And so, in each case, both at the strategic, operational, and tactical level, we’ve charged a joint force to look at themselves and say, what was our plan? Well, first, did we have a plan yes or no? The answer is always yes because we plan for literally everything. Did we execute our plan, yes or no? If we did, did it work? If not, why not? If we didn’t execute our plan but did something better, what’s the lesson learned associated with that? And then how do we quickly capture those lessons after every loss or every engagement, and quickly adopt those lessons, and then share them across the entirety of the joint force. And inside the joint staff, we’ve tasked our J7 Directorate, under the lead of General Lieutenant General Laszewski, a United States Marine, to be extremely entrepreneurial in harvesting and capturing those lessons in a proactive and not reactive way. In fact, we’ve got teammates from the J7 who are now spread out across the CENTCOM theater, both here in the States and forward, to ensure that in every opportunity, we do not miss a chance to grab that lesson and quickly accelerate it into the practice that we adopt inside the joint force so that if there’s a loss or if there’s something that we can learn from, that we learn it not only in the CENTCOM, aor, but we adapted across all of the combatant commands, not just Indopacom, and it’s across all of the warfighting functions. I’ve asked them to look rigorously, to check our egos at the door, to remember this is about what’s right, not who’s right, and to be clinical around the way we look at lessons learned, because we owe it to the force to do that. Thanks for that question.” Hegseth: “Absolutely.”

This question and answer from the Pentagon briefing this morning was so thorough and interesting. My friend Jerry Dunleavy IV 🇺🇸 asked a tough, but substantive question. You can ask those in power real questions without it being a "gotcha" or trap.... Dunleavy: “As part of the justification for the war against Iran, the White House has laid out in fairly comprehensive fashion that Iran — the Iranian regime is 47 years of terrorism aimed at the us, including pointing to the IRGC’s provision of weapons and efforts to help kill Americans in Iraq. The Pentagon in 2019 assessed Iran was responsible for the deaths of at least 603 service members in Iraq, but there hasn’t been a similar accounting — public accounting by Iran’s role helping the Taliban in Afghanistan. And that also hasn’t been part of the White House’s public argument. I was wondering if you could speak to Iran’s role in helping the Taliban during the war in Afghanistan. And, chairman, as — as you and the Secretary eloquently spoke, about, 13 U.S. service members have been killed so far during Operation Epic Fury. I was wondering what lessons have been learned from those deaths, both from Iranian strikes from an aircraft refueling accident? How are those lessons being applied to the current conflict, and how are those lessons going to be applied to a potential conflict in Indopacom?” Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Caine: “Thank you.” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: “Well, thank you for the question and it’s — it’s true. In a town that can have a very short memory, President Trump does not. He remembers what this regime — Iranian regime was founded on, what their declaration has been from the beginning death to America, death to Israel. They’ve stated that. they’ve attended to in every way, try to accomplish that, killing Americans in any theater they can. Embassies for a long for quite a long time. In Iraq, that was the deadliest weapon was the EFP, the explosively formed penetrator. I was there when that tactic and technique started to emerge, and the realization was it wasn’t just jihadis putting together one, five, five rounds, daisy chained. It was an entire state, a country with its apparatus — apparatus able to mold steel in a way that was specifically designed to penetrate American armor and kill Americans. This was not, oh, maybe we send him a couple of thoughts about how to build a bomb. This was Iran’s specifically passing technology and wherewithal and personnel into Iraq to kill Americans specifically. I know the number is said to be 600. A lot of us think it’s higher than that, given the amount of capability they brought in. So they have been at war with us, whether we acknowledge it or not, for 47 years. The same goes in Afghanistan. Name the Islamist enemy, whether they are Sunni or Shia, because this is a Shia regime, Sunni or Shia, and Iran’s been willing to harbor them as long as that group is willing to try to kill Americans. So, the enemy of their enemy has been their friend as well. And the Islamist world. So, Iran, whether it’s Iraq, whether it’s Afghanistan, whether it’s around the world, has been targeting Americans and what they wanted in this context — and what President Trump would not tolerate — is a regime of that nature being closer and closer to nuclear capabilities, a capability they would have said they would want to use. And we all believe what our enemies say they would do if they got the most dangerous weapon in the world. So, it’s been across every theater that Iran’s been — been a threat to America. And sometimes we have to remind folks of that. But thank goodness we have a commander in chief who, on behalf of this country has internalized that and said, hey, we’re going to do something about it.” Caine; “Jerry, I do want to talk about the lessons learned question because it’s important to me.

Must listen. Tucker just went off on the Jeffrey Epstein cover-up and his connection to Israel on Turning Point. Absolute fire. No one is allowed to say the foreign government Epstein was connected to was Israel because we have been cowed into thinking that that's naughty. There is nothing wrong with saying that... "And I think the real answer is Jeffrey Epstein was working on behalf of intel services, probably not American. And we have every right to ask on whose behalf was he working? How does a guy go from being a math teacher at the Dalton School in the late seventies with no college degree to having multiple airplanes, a private island and the largest residential…house in Manhattan? Where did all the money come from? And, no one has ever gotten to the bottom of that because no one has ever tried. And moreover, it's extremely obvious to anyone who watches that this guy had direct connections to a foreign government. Now, no one's allowed to say that that foreign government is Israel because we have been… somehow cowed… into…thinking that that's naughty. There is nothing wrong with saying that. There is nothing hateful about saying that. There's nothing antisemitic about saying that. There's nothing even antisemitic about saying that. There's nothing even antisemitic about saying that. I've spent my entire life pretty much in Washington where I knew and loved a number of people including one very close person who worked at CIA. That has never…prohibited me from saying, I think the CIA has done some horrible things. Murdered a bunch of people, participated in the murder of a sitting US president. It's got a whole trail of crimes. That doesn't make me a disloyal American. It doesn't make me anti American in any sense. I was born here, my family's been here for hundreds of years. I love this country, that's why I live here. So, criticizing the behavior of a government agency does not make you a hater, it makes you a free person. It makes you a citizen. You're allowed to do that…because you're not a slave, you're a citizen. And you have a right to expect that your government will not act against your interests and you have a right to demand that foreign governments not be allowed to act against your interests. That's not creepy. It shouldn't be forbidden. And yet, all of us have trained ourselves to believe that you can't say that somehow. That that's like too naughty and forbidden. And, the effect… of making that off limits has been to create a lot of resentment and I'll say it, hate online. Where people feel like they can't just say, like, what the hell is this? You have the former Israeli prime minister living in your house… You have had all this contact with the foreign government. Were you working on behalf of Mossad? Were you running a blackmail operation on behalf of foreign government? By the way, every single person in Washington DC thinks that. I've never met anyone who doesn't think that. I don't know any of them that hate Israel, but no one feels they can say that. Why? And I think the longer that we play along with it, the more subterranean and creepy and hateful the conversation actually becomes. So, I think it's better just to say it right out loud. Did this happen? And of course that question has been asked to the government of Israel and their answer is, we're not going to tell you. And I think our answer should be, no no As long as we're sending you money, if you were committing crimes on our soil, we have an absolute right to know, did you do this or not?"

NCAA Champion Michael La Sasso is now the youngest player on LIV Golf after signing for Phil Mickelson’s HyFlyers GC during the off season. He explained his decision to join the league ahead of the season opener in Riyadh: “One of the things that went into my decision, when I was 10 years old starting to play golf, like, the goal for me was to play professional golf. Having people that have been very well-known in the golf space and are so experienced, and to be able to be a part of a team that's with Phil, somebody that's had so much experience, I feel like he'll be able to answer any question that I throw at him, to have the ability to be able to ask somebody that on a daily basis, that played a very big part in it for me because not every 21-year-old has the opportunity to be able to ask questions to those people. So that was a big factor for me. “I think so far, I'm so grateful that I made the decision, and I am very happy to be here.” Michael also says that Caleb Surratt, who joined Jon Rahm’s LIV Golf team for the 2024 season, had an impact on his decision too: “So, I've had a very good relationship with Caleb Surratt. Not many people know this, but he was committed to NC State at the same time I was. He's from North Carolina, I'm from North Carolina. Growing up, I played a lot of golf with him, and we were very close. “I remember when he first came here, he stayed at my house because he was getting a swing lesson from -- we go to the same instructor. Everything that he had to say, it made me excited. From a very early start, hearing about LIV and every perk that it had and hearing him talk so highly about it, the fact that I actually had an opportunity to come out here and play, and I asked him a bunch of questions and kind of from the start, everything that he had to say and people that I talked to, everything was so, so good.” He went on to say about the prospect of playing team golf: “I think that makes the transition a little bit easier. I feel like my golf has kind of taken off when I've been in a team environment. For me, having a team around me was very appealing. “I've played good golf as a team. I like the camaraderie, kind of the friendly banter that goes back and forth between the guys. For me to have the opportunity to come play on a team environment for a professional career, I think that's the coolest thing ever.” This is Michael’s rookie season as a pro after signing for HyFlyers GC straight out of college. Normally, it’s a difficult transition for young players to make, but Michael isn’t short of confidence and has some lofty goals: “I've talked with a bunch of people on the team. I know Phil is very big on having a team win and an individual win. Now being the youngest player in the league, I'd kind of like to come in and make a good noise, and I would like to win a couple times. I would like to see the team win for sure, as a team event. I think that would be pretty neat, as well, and kind of take it one day at a time.” One thing is very clear from this interview, whatever happens during Michael’s pro debut this week, it will not be boring!

210,000 tech workers lost their jobs in 2025. Companies are blaming AI. But Amazon's CEO just admitted the truth, and it's way worse than you think... Every earnings call sounds exactly the same right now: "We're leveraging AI to streamline operations." "Automation is driving unprecedented efficiency." "We're building a leaner, more agile organization for the AI age." Pure bs. Here's what actually happened: 2020-2022: Tech companies panic-hired during the COVID boom. Added 30%, 40%, sometimes 50% more headcount. 2023-2024: Growth slowed. Reality hit. Chickens came home to roost. 2025: Time to pay the bill. 210,000 layoffs so far. That's a 54% increase from last year. But CEOs can't just admit "we hired way too many people and created bureaucratic hell." So they invented a magic excuse: AI did it. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy got caught telling the truth. After cutting 14,000 roles, reporters asked if it was AI replacing workers. His answer: "Not really financially driven, and it's not even really AI driven, not right now at least." Wait... what? "It's culture. If you grow as fast as we did for several years, you end up with a lot more people than you had before, and you end up with a lot more layers." Translation: We fucked up. We hired too many people. Now we're fixing it. But the press release? "Leveraging AI for operational efficiency." IBM CEO Arvind Krishna said the quiet part out loud too: "I think people gorged on employment. Some of the displacement is just people saying, 'I don't need so many people because I went up 30, 40, 50, 100% from 2020 to 2023.'" Gorged on employment. That's the most honest thing a tech CEO has said all year. Meanwhile, actual AI adoption in most of these companies? ChatGPT enterprise licenses. Some automation scripts. Maybe a few pilot programs. They're NOT replacing entire departments with AI agents that do the work. They're just admitting they overstaffed and now they're correcting. But "AI efficiency" sounds innovative. "We hired too many people" sounds incompetent. So guess which story gets told? The numbers don't lie: Verizon: 15,000 workers cut. Largest layoff campaign in company history. The week before Thanksgiving. Intel: Cutting 15-20% of manufacturing division. Microsoft: 9,000 employees cut in 2025. Salesforce: 5,000 roles eliminated, including 4,000 support roles. Every single one blamed "AI transformation" in their public statements. But when you read the fine print or listen to the actual earnings calls, it's always the same story: overhiring, too many layers, bureaucratic bloat. Here's the really insane part: This AI-washing narrative is actually HURTING these companies. Because while they pretend to be "AI-first," they're actually: Destroying institutional knowledge from veteran employees. Killing team morale across remaining staff. Losing competitive talent to companies that aren't playing games. Creating the exact bureaucratic dysfunction they claim to be solving. All to cover up basic management failures from 2020-2022. If your company announces layoffs "because of AI," ask one simple question: What specific AI system is replacing these specific jobs? If the answer is corporate speak about "efficiency" and "transformation" with no actual system names, you're being lied to. The AI revolution is real. AI will change how companies operate. But right now? In December 2025? Most of these layoffs are just old-fashioned management incompetence with a fresh coat of paint. The only thing AI is automating is the excuse.
