This is one of the most insidious and destructive tenets of critical race theory—the teaching that if you, as a white person, have ANY type of reaction to CRT dogma, other than full-throated acceptance, that is yet further PROOF of your racism. If you say “I’m not racist,” it’s proof of racism. If you get upset or defensive, it’s proof of racism. If you push back in any way or—God forbid—shun the Church of CRT, it’s proof of racism. It goes without saying, but ideology like that 👆leaves no room for free speech, no room for discourse, no room for finding a workable solution that incorporates all Americans, no room for experiences or voices of anyone who’s not black. It ONLY serves to divide us further, because it deals with perceived racism by inflicting…additional racism. But of course, that’s precisely the point: As Kendi states in his trash HOW TO BE AN ANTI-RACIST, “The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.” Anyone with a brain and a soul can see that 👆is a recipe for CONTINUOUS and NEVER-ENDING discrimination. But my guess is that’s precisely the point.

“In the last 24 hours, even people within the administration have said to me, ‘I don’t really get how we weren’t prepared to deal with the Strait of Hormuz,’” says Mark Halperin. “And I don’t care if you are the most MAGA person in the world. The facts are before us. They didn’t have a plan. There’s no sugarcoating it… So it’s right for the media to ask not just, ‘what are you going to do now,' but ‘why? How could you not have had a plan for that?’” #IranWar‌ 2WAY

MSNBC reports “BREAKING NEWS” after one of their anchors had a 15-minute phone call with President Trump. Here’s what he revealed to Stephanie Ruhle: • “He said that Iran was two weeks away from having a nuclear bomb and they would use it.” • “He said that we could leave the war right now, we could walk away tomorrow because we have just decimated most of the country and their power. But he said the regime would rebuild. It would take him about 10 years. But that’s not an acceptable situation, which is why he thinks we should stay.” • “He said absolutely none of our allies in NATO have helped with support as it relates to the war. He said we don’t need their help, but they’ve proven themselves to be a paper tiger.” • “He says Zelensky is very difficult to deal with. He says Zelensky is more difficult to deal with than Putin is. And he said Putin has also shown that he’s not afraid of Europe, at this point, or our European allies.” • “He said originally [Republicans] wanted to run against Jasmine Crockett [for the Texas Senate], but Talarico can be easily defeated, whether it’s Ken Paxton or John Cornyn.” • “He referred to Talarico as a ‘whack job.’” • “He said [the ballroom] is under budget and ahead of schedule… They plan to have future inaugurations in that ballroom since it’s going to be drone-proof and bulletproof.” • “I asked him about those comments he made about Gavin Newsom and dyslexia. I gave him the opportunity to sort of take those comments back… He didn’t take the comments back.” • “He said [Democrats] are the ones standing in the way of funding [DHS]. ‘If you don’t like your long line at the airport, look no further than Democrats.’ And that’s not a surprise that he would say that.”

Rio Ferdinand calls out the DOUBLE STANDARD over Ollie Watkins: “When it suits clubs, they’re NOT loyal.” “No, I’m just realistic about it. Listen, it’s a short career. He’s at the latter stages of his career coming up now, and if they’re saying — I don’t know — he’s going to go to Saudi and there’s going to be life-changing, generational money put in front of him, who are we to say, ‘No, don’t go’? He’s looking after himself and his family. “It might not suit Aston Villa now, and they’ve had their guts pulled out in this transfer window with all the players that they’ve let go in this window, but this is a two-way street. “And you look over at the other side at your place. I saw Wrighty talking about Martinelli the other day and he feels that the club aren’t treating him right, and the club should be better towards him, and he’s been frozen out. This is a two-way street. “So when I see people criticising Ollie Watkins, the clubs do this as well, right? I don’t know the details of Arsenal, so I can’t comment on that. There’s been many a club down in history that have frozen a player out after he’s been there seven, eight, nine years, treated him like rubbish, just said, ‘Right, get on the scrap heap. You can go. We’re surplus requirements now. We’re done.’ “And just put him on the scrap heap and the player walks out, tail between his legs. No one says nothing. But the moment a player makes a stand and goes, ‘No, I’m going to look after myself just like you club look after yourself when the time comes,’ I’m the bad guy. I don’t agree with it. “And again, the word loyalty in this game is thrown about too often. Because when it suits the clubs, they’re not loyal. And when it suits the players, they’re not loyal. So just let it be.”

Meet Delilah from North Carolina, who has stage two lymphoma and has received no help from the government in 22 days. She is still waiting to hear from FEMA about the promised $750 in aid. The only support her family has received is from volunteers. They’ve lost their vehicles and have no electricity or internet connection, relying entirely on the kindness of strangers. They were told they might get electricity back in February 2025. They live 7.5 miles from the main road, now without any transportation and connection to the world. Delilah’s mom and stepdad, a veteran, had to move to another town because he is severely diabetic. Please don’t be passive and share it, I just sent a message to the woman who made this video because I believe we can come together to help this family with at least the essentials. I know it’s a long shot, but Elon Musk, by any chance do you have a spare Starlink to donate to this family?

.Mark Cuban says he's not worried about AI doom scenarios related to robotics because AI "doesn't understand the consequences of its recommendations": "Right now, LLMs are basically bimodal: it’s almost all text and pictures, with some video. You can’t model the world with that." "AI, right now, doesn't understand the consequences of its recommendations. It has no idea what happens next. A 2-year-old in a highchair and a sippy cup knows if it pushes the sippy cup off the highchair, mom's coming running, and the kid's going to start laughing at mom. LLMs don't understand [that]." "So we have to evolve to models that can capture the world and physics, and deal with the latency of not having access to video that you can't see — you have to try to model that. And not only does that take up a lot of processing power, but it takes up a lot of bandwidth." "And so the Terminators taking over, I just don’t see how it’s going to happen."

Don’t be weak, don’t be stupid, don’t be a "Panican" — that’s what the White House says. Donald J. Trump says Panican is a “new party based on weak and stupid people.” He says if you’re strong, courageous, and patient, that greatness will be the result... and he knows how to get results. Golfing during a market meltdown isn’t a middle finger to middle America, it’s a middle finger to the world. It’s just business as usual while the rest of the world begs for a meeting. After every hole, he was on the phone fielding calls from panicked presidents. The feeling around the world is — “I can’t be the last one to reach a deal with Trump, because if I'm the last one, then I'm the one who’s getting screwed.” The people you hear complaining about the trade war are foreign countries and American companies who outsource to foreign countries. Trump basically said we had to knock using slave labor and sweatshops, and Democrats and Wall Street are crying about the price of flat screen TV's. And the pundits crying on CNBC are the same ones happy to shut down the entire economy for a virus with a 99% survival rate. Trump almost died campaigning, and if he lost, Democrats were going to put him in prison... dropping stocks don’t scare him. He feels like he’s on a mission to save the nation in his last term. Doing the right thing isn’t always easy, and he warned us it wouldn’t be... but like they say— no pain, no gain.

You’re at a busy restaurant, enjoying a night out, when the waitress arrives with your food. Instead of the usual friendly "Enjoy your meal!" she says, "Get your food now, I have a lot to do," and quickly walks away. The table falls silent for a moment, unsure whether to laugh or feel offended. Was she just overwhelmed, having a bad day, or is this a new level of brutal honesty in customer service? It’s easy to see both sides here; restaurant staff often deal with stressful, high-pressure environments, but at the same time, customers expect a certain level of politeness. A little kindness can go a long way, even on a busy shift. How would you react in this situation? Would you laugh it off or feel like it ruined the experience? Should customers be more understanding of overworked staff, or is there no excuse for this kind of attitude in the service industry?

Listen to this whole thing it’s great. I love that these guys can be chill and not just make fun of everyone like I always do. My way in my opinion is super funny but this way is more effective at not getting banned from airbandb JP Sears seems to be the real deal. It’s funny how ego destroys people. They can’t take a simple joke. They push people to stop so then the comedian says “no problem” and delivers a precise breakdown of all the logic and the inner world of the topic. The comedian would rather not do that, but in order to be funny you have to really really understand other people. Then of course the reaction is “you stopped being funny in this explanation! Former comedian! Crashout!” But that doesn’t work unless you call everyone racial pejorative’s and become a farmer. Comedians are oddly sensitive in a way because of the need for high emotional empathy to see what is and how to make it funny, and that can lead to a LOT of cucking and codependent behavior with “the public.” I wasn’t holding my breath but I’m pleasantly impressed by JP. And way to stay chill that’s a skill I developed AFTER being banned from gay libertarian utopia of freedom “PayPal” made “quick books” for no discernible reason. True story

Lionel Scaloni on losing the FIFA World Cup final to Spain. 🗣️ “I’ve lost matches before, but nothing prepared me for this. The moment the final whistle blew, I looked at my players, I looked at my staff, then I looked at Leo… and I couldn’t hold back my tears. I broke down because I knew how much every single one of us had sacrificed to be here.” “When I saw Messi standing there in silence, it shattered me. At 39 years old he gave everything he had left for Argentina. Every sprint hurt, every touch carried responsibility, every minute was played with his heart. As his coach, watching him walk away without lifting the trophy is one of the most painful moments of my life.” “I walked into the dressing room and there wasn’t a single voice. Only tears. Men who fought for their country until they had nothing left were sitting there with their heads down. Leo apologized to us… apologized. Imagine that. The greatest player in history apologizing after giving us absolutely everything. That broke me even more.” “I told him, ‘No, Captain. Don’t you ever apologize. We followed you because you never stopped believing. You carried this shirt with pride until the very last second. If anyone should be thanking someone tonight, it’s Argentina thanking you.’” “This defeat will stay with me forever. Not because we lost a final, but because I witnessed one of the greatest footballers to ever live leave the biggest stage with tears in his eyes after giving his country everything he had. Some defeats hurt far deeper than the scoreboard.” “The trophy belongs to Spain tonight, and they deserve congratulations. But no result can erase what Lionel Messi means to Argentina. He didn’t fail us. He gave us a lifetime of memories, another unforgettable World Cup and one final lesson in courage. I’ll forever be proud that I had the privilege of coaching the greatest player football has ever seen.”

Joe Rogan can no longer hide how he really feels anymore after exposing to financial expert Caleb Hammer that Bernie Sanders is a total hypocrite: ROGAN: “Bernie Sanders used to rally against millionaires, but now he’s a millionaire so he started moving the goalposts to billionaires being the problem. It’s adorable.” HAMMER: “Even Gavin Newsom is starting to change his tune on the billionaire tax.” ROGAN: “Yeah because all the billionaires are leaving his state. All he cares about is his personal gain. He doesn’t give any real answers to questions.” HAMMER: “That’s true.” ROGAN: “There’s a giant number of college kids now that think communism is the solution. They genuinely believe in it. It’s very scary.” HAMMER: “They’re retarded. Communism has never worked anywhere ever.” ROGAN: “These teachers and professors don’t live in the real world. They’ve never had their own business. They are brainwashing kids with ideas and concepts that don’t work at all in real life.”

Good afternoon, everyone. It was an honor to meet everyone and talk with you at MSTR True North World — among friends, pioneers, skeptics, and the quietly curious. Since January of 2021, I’ve been studying Bitcoin. And over the last 6 months, I’ve spent more than 121 hours interviewing executives, analysts, allocators, CFOs, board members, and everyday Bitcoiners across New York, Miami, Boston, Paris and beyond. I’ve sat in boardrooms and basements, on stages and at poolside bars. I’ve heard ideas sharpened by experience — and caution shaped by capital risk. And what I’ve come away with is simple: Bitcoin treasuries are no longer theory. They are becoming practice. Quietly, strategically, and at the edges of the legacy system. I've come away with three lessons. Lesson 1: No one’s asking “why” anymore—they’re asking “how.” The shift is subtle, but it’s everywhere. In 2021, the question was: Why would we hold Bitcoin on a corporate balance sheet? In 2023, it became: What are the risks? How do we explain this to auditors and boards? Now in 2025, it’s: What’s our timing strategy? What percentage makes sense? Which vendors do we engage with for custody and beyond? Lesson 2: The conversation isn’t just financial—it’s philosophical. This isn’t just about a hedge—it’s about preparing for a world that feels less anchored. Bitcoin represents something beyond volatility charts. It’s about opt-out optionality. It’s about control. That’s why it’s attractive to sovereigns, startups, and mid-market CEOs alike. Lesson 3: Geography matters—but mindset matters more. In El Salvador, Bitcoin is infrastructure. In Paris, it’s a hedge against monetary orthodoxy. In New York, it’s a bet on innovation. But everywhere I go, the common thread isn’t politics or price—it’s resilience. The smartest people in capital markets today are quietly exploring how Bitcoin can help them withstand turbulence — not chase returns. The world is shifting beneath our feet. Inflation targets are guesses. Debt ceilings are flexible. Global trust in fiat systems is fraying. And in that context, Bitcoin isn’t just a tech play — it’s a strategic reserve choice. The positioning has shifted. We’re no longer betting on Bitcoin. We’re acknowledging it. That’s the future we’re walking into — not maximalist or minimalist, but realist. Realists are saying: “Let’s not put 100% of our reserves into this—but let’s not ignore it either.” They’re adding 1%, 2%, 3%—quietly. And what that means is: the next chapter of adoption won’t necessarily be loud. It’ll be layered into spreadsheets, policies, and quarterly risk disclosures. But none of this happens in a vacuum. Bitcoin isn’t just about bytes and blocks — it’s about people. The community I’ve met through these 121 hours—analysts, entrepreneurs, regulators, CFOs—they all have something in common: They’ve had the conversation. They’ve questioned the system. They’ve reached for something sturdier, even when it felt risky. In that way, Bitcoin treasuries aren’t just about capital reserves. They’re about emotional reserves. About saying: “We want to build something we believe in—even if it’s hard to explain on CNBC.” So what’s next? We’re entering a phase where Bitcoin will coexist with the legacy system—not replace it overnight. Treasuries won’t go all in. But they’ll lean in. They’ll study, they’ll test, and eventually, they’ll move. And as that happens, it won’t be a parade. It’ll be a process. So my invitation to you—whether you’re a Bitcoiner, a builder, a skeptic, or a steward of capital — is this: Keep having the conversation. Keep asking “how.” And most importantly—stay connected to the people who are asking questions of you. Because at the intersection of code and community, we’re building the next generation of financial truth. Thank you. Let’s keep going.

Good afternoon, everyone. It was an honor to meet everyone and talk with you at MSTR True North World — among friends, pioneers, skeptics, and the quietly curious. Since January of 2021, I’ve been studying Bitcoin. And over the last 6 months, I’ve spent more than 121 hours interviewing executives, analysts, allocators, CFOs, board members, and everyday Bitcoiners across New York, Miami, Boston, Paris and beyond. I’ve sat in boardrooms and basements, on stages and at poolside bars. I’ve heard ideas sharpened by experience — and caution shaped by capital risk. And what I’ve come away with is simple: Bitcoin treasuries are no longer theory. They are becoming practice. Quietly, strategically, and at the edges of the legacy system. I've come away with three lessons. Lesson 1: No one’s asking “why” anymore—they’re asking “how.” The shift is subtle, but it’s everywhere. In 2021, the question was: Why would we hold Bitcoin on a corporate balance sheet? In 2023, it became: What are the risks? How do we explain this to auditors and boards? Now in 2025, it’s: What’s our timing strategy? What percentage makes sense? Which vendors do we engage with for custody and beyond? Lesson 2: The conversation isn’t just financial—it’s philosophical. This isn’t just about a hedge—it’s about preparing for a world that feels less anchored. Bitcoin represents something beyond volatility charts. It’s about opt-out optionality. It’s about control. That’s why it’s attractive to sovereigns, startups, and mid-market CEOs alike. Lesson 3: Geography matters—but mindset matters more. In El Salvador, Bitcoin is infrastructure. In Paris, it’s a hedge against monetary orthodoxy. In New York, it’s a bet on innovation. But everywhere I go, the common thread isn’t politics or price—it’s resilience. The smartest people in capital markets today are quietly exploring how Bitcoin can help them withstand turbulence — not chase returns. The world is shifting beneath our feet. Inflation targets are guesses. Debt ceilings are flexible. Global trust in fiat systems is fraying. And in that context, Bitcoin isn’t just a tech play — it’s a strategic reserve choice. The positioning has shifted. We’re no longer betting on Bitcoin. We’re acknowledging it. That’s the future we’re walking into — not maximalist or minimalist, but realist. Realists are saying: “Let’s not put 100% of our reserves into this—but let’s not ignore it either.” They’re adding 1%, 2%, 3%—quietly. And what that means is: the next chapter of adoption won’t necessarily be loud. It’ll be layered into spreadsheets, policies, and quarterly risk disclosures. But none of this happens in a vacuum. Bitcoin isn’t just about bytes and blocks — it’s about people. The community I’ve met through these 121 hours—analysts, entrepreneurs, regulators, CFOs—they all have something in common: They’ve had the conversation. They’ve questioned the system. They’ve reached for something sturdier, even when it felt risky. In that way, Bitcoin treasuries aren’t just about capital reserves. They’re about emotional reserves. About saying: “We want to build something we believe in—even if it’s hard to explain on CNBC.” So what’s next? We’re entering a phase where Bitcoin will coexist with the legacy system—not replace it overnight. Treasuries won’t go all in. But they’ll lean in. They’ll study, they’ll test, and eventually, they’ll move. And as that happens, it won’t be a parade. It’ll be a process.

I’ve seen enough. Smart Assist has reached its breaking point. I was casually getting a few games in with my Barca team when I encountered a pro player who is Top 22 in the World in PvP divisions and Top 30 in the World in AI divisions using Smart Assist. This guy is clearly not a beginner at the game and I don’t want to hear any sort of nonsense excuse trying to justify him using Smart Assist because this feature was meant to help noobs and beginners at the game not pro players who know the game inside and out. I can only assume that 99% of the playerbase is using Smart Assist. It’s a fact that I am struggling to come to terms with but this is the unfortunate reality. What has happened is that slowly more and more players who were not using Smart Assist experienced how dreadful it is playing against a Smart Assist user regardless of the skill level of the Smart Assist user and decided to turn it on themselves so they don’t have to endure the suffering that comes with playing against Smart Assist. It’s a little depressing seeing where the game is at right now but this is unfortunately Konami’s vision for the game. I just can’t wrap my head around it when you literally can have a garbage team with $0 spent with Smart Assist turned on and be able to smash a fully paid premium Epic and Big Time team by pressing and holding 1 button the entire game. Hopefully soon they will realize that all of the Smart Assist users (which is 99% of the playerbase) will see no need to spend any money on the game since an untrained GP Niklas Sule from the Standard Player list with 67 speed and 48 acceleration (I’m not lying that’s literally his stats) is able to catch up with George Best with 100+ speed and 100+ Acceleration.

Jeffrey Sachs: The core of the UN Charter—the very purpose you find in the preamble and the opening articles—is to stop the use of force and the threat of force by one nation against another. This is the essence of the UN system. Article 2, paragraph 4 of the UN Charter says that no nation may threaten or use force against another nation. It’s simple. As the opening words of the Charter make clear, this is to prevent the scourge of war. But we have a US president who believes the US rules the world and that violence is a core instrument of ruling it. He believes that if countries don’t accede to US demands—what Trump calls “unconditional surrender,” with Trump picking the new leader of Iran—then force will continue until that outcome occurs. It’s in the mold of Hitler or Napoleon or other delusional actors who thought they could rule. But even in those earlier cases, they did not believe they ruled the world. They aimed to rule their neighborhood. They aimed to rule Europe. Hitler aimed for living space in the Slavic lands. Trump’s rhetoric and behavior show he believes he rules the world—on a personalistic level and a political level. I’m not exaggerating. It’s not “Trump delusion syndrome.” It’s just overt behavior. The man’s loony. You can watch it. He has every trait of megalomania, grandiosity, narcissism. It’s quite clear that US foreign policy is typically run by the CIA, and they’re being run ragged right now because they can’t keep up with this madness. There’s a lot of unpredictability and danger. We have a mix of normal US grandiosity—a deep trait of the United States, true under Bush Jr., Obama, and Biden—but with Trump, you add personal-level delusion on top of institutional grandiosity and militarism. We know this from history. This isn’t the first time. But it is the first time in the nuclear age. We’ve never had a circumstance like this in the nuclear age. I would say the world is in a more dangerous situation than it has ever been. Period.

This video is a must-watch. I rarely agree with Ben Rhodes but he's 100% correct here. He says he'll "always be haunted" by a comment that Xi Jinping made to Obama in 2016 when referring to Trump: "If an immature leader throws the world into chaos, the world will know who to blame". Why does it haunt him? Because in his words "we've kind of been dealing with that ever since". He mocks Biden's foreign policy of trying to restore a "Liberal rules-based order with the U.S. at the center of it" (i.e. U.S. primacy) as "designed for the world that doesn't exist anymore". Remember Rhodes was Obama's Deputy National Security Advisor, so it's quite something to hear him say that... He illustrates this with the contrasting performances of China and the U.S. at APEC in Peru: on one side you had China's multibillion-dollar port and on the other Blinken's "few million in diesel engines". It really illustrates two different worldviews: one stuck in a patronizing past of small-scale 'aid', the other focused on serious development partnerships. In fact when you think about it, Biden and Trump are really two sides of the same coin on foreign policy: their platforms - "Make America Great Again" and "America is Back" - both represent different flavors of nostalgia for a world that structurally cannot exist anymore; we're in a multipolar world now. As Rhodes says, this leaves the U.S. swinging erratically between two obsolete visions while the rest of the world moves on. The Global South isn't 'aligning with China against the West' as much as it's choosing predictability and development over chaos and condescension. He's right that "there's opportunity in a rebuild" of America's foreign policy. In fact there's no other option, you need to deal with the world as it is: as such the "opportunity" is in adapting, and in not persisting in wishing reality away and fighting windmills. As for what adapting means, the most important aspect is to understand how a civilization that's been seeing itself as universal for centuries can come to terms with being one among many, which is what the multipolar world means. How can you be "Western" without insisting everyone else must follow your model? How can you now coexist with non-Western civilizations whilst having sought to dominate the world for so long? How can you rebuild an identity that honors Western traditions without trying to export them as universal truths? The U.S. doesn't need a new strategy to 'compete with China' - it needs to fundamentally reimagine its role in a world where it's one civilization among many. This means abandoning both Trump's aggressive nationalism and Biden's missionary liberalism in favor of something more humble and realistic. That's the real existential challenge facing the U.S. and the West in general, not the "China threat" or "authoritarianism" as you're always told, but whether we can come to terms with genuine coexistence with other civilizations - not as pupils to be taught or threats to be crushed, but as equal powers pursuing their own paths.

This is a message to my Jewish Brothers and sisters around the world. And anyone who stands with us in the fight for the sanctity of the Western world, as we know it. I hope with all my heart all the hostages are returned, that Hamas surrenders, and that the war ends so we can all start rebuilding towards a better future. But abroad - this stands in the way. And we must all be prepared. What you are already feeling abroad...what you have been feeling for over two years now. For being Jewish. Or Israeli. Or a Zionist. I am all three. It will get worse before it gets better and there's a long road ahead. This is a must watch because of the conduct. You will quite literally see a woman suffering a disease of Jewish and Israeli hatred faced with woman who have reason, resilience and truth. Everything that this deranged woman - this Academic staffer at the university - says, the way she says it, the way that she cannot help but continue to say what she says, the way she cannot just walk away. Her threatening manner, screaming, her trying to intimidate, her trying to manipulate the situation vis-a-vis the security guard (who does not take the bait) whilst she is the hater and the provocateur. It is quite literally hatred personified. This is at the University of Sydney, Australia. On a campus ground. A staffer. Jewish people and our allies must understand that this is the product of an indoctrination of hate on a mass scale. And that you have a stake in the battle. And a responsibility. Established and defined words, like the word Zionism, does not exist for these people. They have hijacked the word and made it something evil over the course of years. And now it's exploded for all to see. They have equated the word Zionism with Naziism. False. They have tried to redefine the word Zionism. They have redefined what a Jew is and are running with it. Almost all Jews in the world are Zionists. So they’ve redefined what Zionism is. The world fell for it. They’ve redefined what a genocide is. The world fell for it. They’ve redefined what apartheid is. The world fell for it. They’ve redefined what colonialism is. The world fell for it. They’ve redefined what an actual country is and what history is - there's no Palestine and there never has been a state called Palestine for Arabs - they've just willed it into being from air. That doesn't mean a lot of Jews around the world against a peaceful Palestine one day, maybe. But there is no Palestine. The world fell for it. When you let people take over words and come up with new meanings, and you do not resist that, then this is the first step to losing your freedom. Because we as people start to lose truth, reality - and we begin to lose the glue that keeps us all connected. People stop seeing eye to eye because there is no more truth. And things start to fall apart just like are seeing here. But imagine this example with even more different definitions being warped…within society on many topics. You tear away at the truth and everything starts to fray and this is a physical example of just that. We are the last line of defense in this war of words. This Jewish woman, and those with her, are. They showed up. And excelled. They demonstrated peacefully for their identity. They did not threaten. They stood their ground. They said what they had to say. They took care of their safety where they could. We’re respectful to authorities. They showed strength and resilience and courage. All in the face of someone who is consumed with propaganda, does not make sense, who is filled with rage, who cannot answer simple questions or accept reality for what it is, and must push back and threaten and bully. She has an intolerance that has no bounds. I’m sure they would have engaged in something civilly to talk about were there the opportunity - but as you can see, there was no-one home. When faced with the ongoing threat of the hijacking of all that holds the West together, we have to show up. Push back like this. With leadership and nerves of steal. Everyone can play a part, abide by the law - and push back unapologetically at this hatred. It’s happening everywhere. It will continue unless YOU show up. This is the tactic of the enemies of the West. First, change the meaning of words. Second, break the rules. Third, lose consensus and distort reality. Fourth, lose trust. Fifth, chaos ensues. Six, human destruction. The more we challenge this chaos and the more we take it head-on wherever you are - at work, in your community, with friends, in all sorts of settings - the more the West has a chance in the long run. If you don’t do it, the West will fall. Do not lose the West. Take a stand and fight for it, whether you are Jewish or not. Stand up to those spreading hatred and lies - and fight the good fight for peace, coexistence and truth. - Eitan Chitayat

Tom Brady reveals the overlooked reason practice squad players never succeed in the NFL It’s not a lack of talent. Brady watched it happen for 20 years. The pattern was undeniable. As soon as a practice squad player got promoted and had to perform under real pressure, they crumbled. It took years for Brady to understand why. “There’s 53 guys on the active roster and there’s now 15 guys on the practice squad. So there’s 68 players. But those practice squad players are important because if anybody on the active roster gets hurt, they can get elevated to the squad.” “These scout team receivers would come in and practice with the scout team and they do really well. And I’d be watching. I’m like, ‘Man, we got to get that guy. Let’s get him up on offense. He’s making a lot of plays.’” “Then all of a sudden, we’re like, ‘Hey man, you’re doing really well. You got to come over here and deal with the pressure of succeeding now that you have expectation.’” “And these guys are like, they weren’t prepared for it. So whatever we saw in practice against where there was not a lot of pressure, now when they’re put in a situation where there’s an expectation for performance, they’ve never had to personally deal with that and then they fail.” “And then what I realized was a lot of guys on those practice squads, they don’t want to be elevated to the roster.” “They’re very happy living this life where they could tell their family and friends, which I have no problem with that. But the reality is a lot of guys don’t want the pressure of dealing with top.” Twenty years in the league and seven Super Bowl rings later, Brady learned that talent wasn’t the hardest thing to find. It was people who actually wanted the pressure that comes with being great.
