Outstanding point from Vice President JD Vance addressing those claiming ICE is showing up at someoneโ€™s place of residence and those inside insist they havenโ€™t heard of the person theyโ€™re looking for.... โ€œLet's say, for example, we have a criminal migrant who is a sex offender, and let's say that we've got to go and arrest that person who, Democrat or Republican, wants a sex offender living in their community, I would assume โ€” I would hope that most people don't. But because they're in illegal alien, we don't know their last address. We may have known their address three years ago, but we don't know their address now.โ€ โ€œWhat we'd like to do is talk to local officials and say, you know what? According to the Medicaid rules, where was the last person, this person โ€” or where was the last address this person was domiciled? Or according to a SNAP application, a food stamps application? Maybe that could give us insight to where this person is today or maybe they had some local court trouble. We could go to the local courthouse, or even the local jail, and try to find where this criminal sex offender is today. The local authorities have been told do not cooperate. So, these guys are trying to go out and enforce the law. They're trying to arrest sex offenders, but they're trying to do it in an environment where local officials have been told do not help them, do not provide intelligence about where these sex offenders might be. This is disgraceful, and there are a lot of things that all of us could do better to lower the temperature. But the number one thing that I learned today is that the best way to facilitate reasonable enforcement of the law, but also to lower the chaos in Minneapolis, would be for state and local officials to cooperate.โ€

spread this,for ALL fandoms. this IS what your funding for your fun without boycotting the company. it was not a new thing,and it'll never be. when new jeans speak up about all of this,people just blamed them like theyre by side of the company,theyre literally bullied that girls non stop.even when soobin talked about theyre getting hit while practices(they were literally 15-16 maybe even more little KIDS btw) moa's did not even talked about it much. im not even talking about enhypen,they being mistreated,overworked by the company from all the beginning,they cant even take real protection for them,sasaengs are always around them,calling their phones,reached by illegal ways. it's STILL that way even after whole 6 years,just bcuz youre choosing watching your favs literally draining(physically and mentally) over really speak up and be loud for all of these,also le sserafim too,i bet you guys remember the coachella right,its was the worst thing for the girls,bcuz they werent even ready,and all these lynches came just for these girls but not the company ever. do you think we could forgot about all of these? katseye,seventeen,even the bts,yeah the "strongest" kpop group in the endustry,i dont even know them well but i knew very well what they lived especially in their first times. even in the courts, everyone was frustrated wondering how they could get this far by doing so many wrong things,mistreatment to their actually most important ones,artists.and believe me or not this isn't because they're so clever while doing these or anything, there have been and continue to be a lot of leaks. i don't care which fandom you're in, and it doesn't even matter. All HYBE fandoms need to wake up about this at this point, instead of encouraging them to continue for their cheap entertainment and "fun" ts isn't just about the shareholders or smth, it's about the staff and rumors, everything... EVERYTHING about the management of this company is being mismanaged and seems all wrong all this time. as you know, even at yesterday's meeting, they didn't even talk about enhypen, which is our "main topic" right now. their name was only mentioned twice in an hour long discussion. why? bc they're so despicable that they think they can make us forget about things that don't suit them by ignoring them from the beginning. cant we just avoid and not take attention to these devils supporters? just do ur boycott properly and speak about not only the artist and "fun" cbs, but also about the violation of human rights. #You_Complete_Our_SevEN #ENGENEs_Boycott_BELIFT_Lab

These two could easily milk their situation if they wanted to. Most loveteams would. They could feed the hype, keep people talking, and chase every bit of clout...especially since they're together most of the time anyway. But they don't. Dustin and Bianca don't seem interested in playing that game... To me, it feels like they genuinely want to have a normal relationship when the cameras are off. They know when it's work. They know when it's fan service. And they know when it's simply THEIR LIFE... I actually admire that. Sometimes I even feel like we're unintentionally asking too much from them. We want updates. We want photos. We want videos. We want crumbs everyday. But maybe... that's exactly what they're trying to avoid... PRESSURE... And honestly, it makes sense. Both of them have worked alongside or been around some of the biggest loveteams of this generation...KathNiel, JoshLia, and BarDa. They've probably seen both the beautiful side of it and the messy side that comes with living your relationship in public. It's funny how these former loveteams now end up choosing to keep their private lives low-key after learning those lessons the hard way. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Maybe Dustin and Bianca looked at all that and thought.. They should never get to that point... I respect that.. That said... Lovebirds, since we're all working hard for the FanCon, here's our one tiny request. ๐Ÿฅน We know this isn't naturally your style.. But if you could give us just a little bit more presence until the FanCon... a few posts, a few stories, a little more visibility... it would really help everyone who's been working tirelessly behind the scenes. After that? Go back to your little bubble. We'll happily let you go incognito... until work calls again. ๐Ÿ’› Dustin Yu Bianca De Vera #DUSTBIA #DUSTINYU #BIANCADEVERA

๐Ÿ”ฅ $PLTR Co-founder Joe Lonsdale with Tom Bilyeu on Why Meritocracy and Intelligence Matters "At Palantir, we started off with a bunch of these math champions and chess champions, just the best people out of the Ph.D. programs at Stanford, MIT, and other places. They brought their smartest friends, who brought their smartest friends, and thatโ€™s just a huge advantage. In the tech world, with the very, very top companies, you donโ€™t see just average people there. You see extraordinarily bright minds, and that three, four, or fifth standard deviation of skill is the same way. By the way, if you want to have the Oakland Aโ€™s be a top baseball team or a top basketball team, you canโ€™t just have an average guy on the team. You need the very, very bestโ€”the top merit in that area. In some cases, itโ€™s a skill, like in sports. In other areas, itโ€™s IQ, and IQ matters a lot for what weโ€™re doing." The American government was really competent in the mid-20th century. Is it something that no one else could do? You know, we fought two world wars. We went to the Moon. It turns out that we used to have really hard tests to run things in the U.S. government. So, allow me to go back a little bit to the 19th century. The government grew a lot after the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln created a lot of new departments, and the central government all of a sudden became a much bigger thing in the 1860s and 70s. By the time of 1883, it was a mess. Everyone agreed, this is a mess because whoever wins the presidency just brings in all their friends, all their cronies, their stupid cousin Vinnie, whoever else. Theyโ€™re all getting paid a ton of money just to hang out in D.C. and not get anything done. So, they said, โ€œGuys, we need to have tests. We need to have merit. We need to actually say the people running things need to be really smart.โ€ So, we put in these tests with the Pendleton Act of 1883, and these tests were there all the way through the Moon landing, through everything. Then, come the late 1970s, our country became very politicized around affirmative action. It turns out these tests had different results on average for different races. They werenโ€™t racist tests, by the way. I would agree that the tests actually measured your performance. But despite that, the activist courts on the left said, โ€œNo more tests.โ€ So, around 1980 or so, they threw out the tests. And, by the way, they didnโ€™t just throw out the tests. They made it almost impossible to fire people. They put in massive protections where itโ€™s really hard and slow to fire people. So, starting in 1980, our government is not able to do tests anymore, not able to do merit. It just starts getting dumber slowly over timeโ€”dumber and dumber. So, for 45 years, our governmentโ€™s been getting dumber. That is interesting. Tom Bilyeu: One of the great revelations of my adult lifeโ€”and this actually bothers meโ€”is the degree to which intelligence matters. What role do you think intelligence plays, full stop? Whether youโ€™re trying to improve the government, whether youโ€™re trying to be the baddest kid on the international block, or youโ€™re trying to build a company? Joe Lonsdale: This is a really important point because, obviously, intelligence isnโ€™t everything. I think integrity, faith, why you care about the world, and your motives matter to help people. But if you actually want to be effective at whatever those motives are, intelligence is absolutely central. Merit is absolutely central. If you look at the very top companies versus an average company, you have the best and the brightest.

Former medical coder and whistleblower Zowe Smith: "A program called Tiberius... was provided by Palantir... the same Tiberius program that we believe is used in Gaza to identify targets... for... Operation Warp Speed, to assign people behavior scores... So did you go and get your vaccines? Did you volunteer? Did you put on your mask? Did you do distancing? They [could] tell all of that. They could tell location data, they could tell ethnicity, they could tell what's your [financial situation], they could tell who you've been around. And the Tiberius program would use that to assign you a behavior score. "They [used] that to target their countermeasure strikes. So where [they sent] their ventilators, where [they sent] the remdesivir, and where [they sent] the vaccines that people [weren't] taking. That was the program that informed those decisions... [the] Palantir Tiberius program." This clip of Smith (Zowe Smith), who is also the author of The Covid Code: My Life in the Thrill Kill Medical Cult, is taken from a conversation with The Real Natureboy (The Real Natureboy) posted to Rumble on December 5, 2025. ----------------Partial transcription of clip--------------- "Then I found Whitney Webb's article talking about HHS Protect and how that was a proโ€”There was a program called Tiberius built into that that was provided by Palantir. This is the same Tiberius program that we believe is used in Gaza to identify the targets, the Hamas targets for drone strikes. Same program, but it was used for a military operation, Operation Warp Speed, to assign people behavior scores. "So did you go and get your vaccines? Did you volunteer? Did you, put on your mask? Did you do distancing? They can tell all of that. They could tell location data, they could tell ethnicity, they could tell what's your finance, they could tell who you've been around. And the Tiberius program would use that to assign you a behavior score. "They also use that information since hospitals had to send, things like their, their case mix index, how many patients were there, how many ventilators. They use that to target their countermeasure strikes. So where do they send their ventilators, where do they send the remdesivir, and where do they send the vaccines that people aren't taking? That was the program that informed those decisions, was this Palantir Tiberius program. And the reason it's so nefarious is as you mentioned earlier, they have drones here in America. Our police are already using them. I checked in my state, in my county, they've had contracts since 2011 to get drones here, and they're already using them. They're saying that they're using them for, people that have firearms. "So it's like a firearms response team, I think it's called. F.I.T. is their acronym. And so it's any person who's suspected of having a firearm, they'll send a drone out instead of a police officer because it would be dangerous for a police officer to go and get shot, but not as bad for a drone to go and get shot. "So that's how they're framing it. Are these armed drones or are these just observational drones? I think they're just observational at this moment in time. But there is an article, peer-reviewed article actually, talking about how to deploy different Covid measures, countermeasures, and having drones deliver packages, like having drones deliver vaccines. "It's not going to be that hard. I mean, our military already has what's called LMAMs, which are, that's their acronym for like a individually autonomous flying drone, like a swarm of them. And those are the ones that could have, I forget what their military term is. But it could be a weapon or it could be a drug."

This was the same stream. I've typed whole novels explaining this in good faith. They aren't good faith they are looking for openings on Nick's ankle to bite. Its not worth arguing with them. We are at war with ZOG right now. They claim to be on the same team but spend every day shooting us in the back. Don't argue with them, just let them fuck up their stupid plans from behind a block. The only time these dudes get engagement is when they fuck with us and intentionally misunderstand and misconstrue a take. I want a White Christian America, clearly the groypers do. We are the tip of the spear in this war and these rats are more concerned with their own position in the hypothetical 4th Reich than they are actually winning, it is disgusting and selfish. It's even worse because all of his ideas are fucking stupid. I'm just so uninterested in this bullshit fake conversation. I know there are a lot of wns who have been in this forever and are in their 40s or older. You need to trust the plan and understand that while you may think the groypers are gay or talk like black people we are the generation who is leading this fight to levels we have never reached before. Regardless, we are currently grappling with ZOG, AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS, so maybe try to help. He has a video from a day ago talking with another of these losers about how the groyper strategy of infiltration wouldn't work even though we are literally in the middle of ZOG melting down over it working. I've been in this since I was fucking 16 years old I have seen an endless supply of these bitter idiots and I've really held out as long as I can trying to be good faith and handhold them through it, but its just transparently bad faith. If you are attacking groypers right now, you're on team Israel. Sorry, that's just real life. Your plan to start a white commune is stupid and a waste of time. I think the whole country should be a white commune. There are already plenty of racist little towns in rural America. But when the federal government comes to rape them with migrants, they have no reply. Your plan to start a "based" brick and morter prep school is stupid and a massive liability to anyone who attends. Even with one second of thinking a guerilla, online prep school is a better and far cheaper idea. But honestly, wignat U is completely unnecessary because we have online shows and resources already available, and more is being made every day. What the fuck. I didn't say anything about this or your porn videos and just tried to support you when you were being attacked. Because I value winning over making sure everyone knows I'm the most basedest person on Twitter and I should be in charge. I'm typing this whole novel now because I hope there are some older gen wn guys who are actually good faith. It's just a genuine appeal to groypers to just block these dudes and stop giving them 90% of their engagement, and to the anti-groyper wns who actually want to win. Maybe you don't understand why the young people act this way, but we are the most zealous and numerous soldiers and we are fucking winning. We are either a team or we aren't. You're on our side or Israel's side. Do not believe there is an alternative, believe you can guide and assist this movement with your wisdom and turbo based takes. If your name is WODANWIGNAT and you hate Jesus and love whites, it means nothing if you join the chorus of Jewish voices against the only white youth movement you've got.

"[The DOD C19 jab] contracts...specified Moderna must test...for reproductive toxicity...the way they ran the experiments...&...the...push to inject pregnant women...tells me...they were...testing how many shots it take[s] to sterilize...I think they arrived at...btwn 5 &...10" This clip of retired pharma R&D executive Sasha Latypova (sashalatypova.substack.com "Due Diligence and Art") is taken from a discussion with Dr. Naomi Wolf (Dr. Naomi Wolf. 8 NYT Bestsellers. DPhil, Poetry.), the CEO of DailyClout (DailyClout), an author, and a professor, which was posted to the Outspoken with Dr. Naomi Wolf Rumble channel on June 3, 2025. ----------------Partial transcription of clip------------- "Yeah, it's the same mechanism for all of these shots. They distribute to all the organs, including placenta, ovaries, the fetus. They willโ€” So now there's a study showing that they destroy about 60% of female eggs, which are non renewable. And each baby girl is born with exactly the number of eggs she's going to have. "So if a woman is carrying a female, baby, then her ovary is also going to get destroyed because this thing passes through the placenta. "This is how it's designed. And another thing I wanted to point out, I was also one of the few people who reviewed, actually probably also the only person who fully reviewed, the Department of Defense contracts that were given to Moderna and Pfizer. As you remember, Pfizer funded their own R&D. But Moderna received humongous amounts of money from the government since they were funded founded in 2011. And these Department of Defense contracts for these shots specified that Moderna must test multiple injections for reproductive toxicity. "And the way it's written and the way they ran experiments and what the experiments showed and then subsequently that the whole push into inject pregnant women at every point tells me that they were intentionally testing how many shots does it take to sterilize. And I think they arrived at conclusion of somewhere between 5 and then 10. 10 would be to like fully, you know, 100 percent. "So now think about it. So they're pushing about three shots on a pregnant woman, which, means that a bunch of it will go to the baby. So baby already gets like two or three before they're born. And then, you know, up until very recently, they were pushing three additional shots before age of 15 months on every infant. And now they're saying on every vulnerable infant. That's the math. "The fact is FDA was fully aware of the damage that these types of technologies can cause and especially for reproduction. And it's all documented, it's called regulatory knowledge. And it was all documented in regulatory guidance documents that FDA publishes for all sorts of topics, including for this. And I was pointing to this also throughout 2020, 2021, there were numerous guidance documents issued by FDA for both preclinical testing and clinical testing of these classes of products. And clearly documents that these are very dangerous, various classes of risk and harm. Definitely not for pregnant women. And now we come to 2020 and there's a complete 180-degree flip. "And then again, everybody gives them an excuse. Well, they didn't know it's such a new technology, but I mean they talk out of both sides of their mouth because depending on the situation, it's either nobody knew and it was brand new technology or oh no, these have been in research and development for 20 years and they're safe."

From Eric Vishria on how the top AI founders are building products completely opposite of the SaaS era: "One of the things that is really different in the AI world versus the SaaS world, is that in the SaaS world, over and over again, you had people who really understood the customer. And the problem. And then they understood a domain. They understood what the technology was more or less capable of. But it wasn't a real question of if you could build something or not. For example, take Salesforce, Workday, and ServiceNow. CRM existed before Salesforce. HR management existed before Workday. Same thing with ServiceNow. So in every case, Salesforce followed Siebel. Workday followed Peoplesoft. ServiceNow followed Peregrine and Remedy, and others. So they were just kind of, cloud SaaS versions of the prior generation product. They just understood the customers. They understood the problem. And they were just like, here's a better version. And that evolved a little bit over time in SaaS land. But that's what it is. And so product development in that way was done by people who really understood the customer and the problems. And then just took advantage of the next wave. And this is almost diametrically opposite of product development in the AI era. When I look at the teams that are having the most success today, they have intimate knowledge of the models. They are right on the frontier of understanding which models are better at what, and why, and when. And what they're going to be good at and what they're not going to be good at. And what they're spending their time on, is figuring out how do I apply this capability of this model to this domain or to this user. So they're actually working inside out or technology out, versus customer problem in. And of course, they understand the customer problem. And a lot of times they have firsthand knowledge of it. But they're really close to the metal and capability, and they're applying it. And I think this is a really different way to develop products than in SaaS. I started my career as a product manager a long time ago, and it's almost the complete opposite of everything you learned. "Listen to the customer, understand it, then bring it back to the engineering and product teams." If you did that right now, ask a bunch of customers what they want out of AI, and you brought it back, for the most part, it may not be possible today with today's technology. Whereas the teams that are winning right now really understand the technology and are applying it out. And so I think this reversal matters. I think it's a big difference in terms of how companies are getting built. And maybe even the types of entrepreneurs that will be successful. I'm not sure. You're seeing some real change there. Look at the Bret Taylor's at Sierra. That's a super, super technical founder who really gets it. Brett and Clay really get it. You look at Michael and his co-founders at Cursor. They're super technical founders and they get it. They all really understand what these things can and can't do. And that's a pretty different dynamic relative to the way the best SaaS companies got built."

Theyโ€™re still getting brain damage. Theyโ€™re still getting knocked out. Theyโ€™re still going to the hospital every nightโ€”win, lose, or drawโ€”so why canโ€™t they live the life of a god? Like the gladiators, they know something bad is gonna happen eventuallyโ€”why canโ€™t we live a good life until that happens? Helwani: So you think they need to put on a show a little more, right? Like put themselves out there? Tyson: No, they put on more than these people deserve. They need to get paid. They donโ€™t get paid enough. Helwani: So youโ€™re saying the MMA fighters arenโ€™t getting paid what they deserve? Tyson: Iโ€™m just saying Ultimate Fighting fighters are not getting paid what they should be getting paid. Helwani: The UFC? Tyson: All the fightersโ€”MMA, UFCโ€”I donโ€™t care what fighting team. Tyson: You know a guy like this guyโ€”whatโ€™s the guyโ€™s nameโ€”Anderson Silva. A guy with his record and his performance and how easy heโ€™s beating people, this guy should be a multi-millionaire driving around his little fancy car, if heโ€™s that person. I donโ€™t know. You know, I see him getting fancy and slick, if heโ€™s that kind of person, with his Rolls-Royces and Bentleys and fancy carsโ€ฆ and that donโ€™t mean nothing, but he should have his security, thatโ€™s the main thing. He should have his security if he wants to do that. Thatโ€™s what makes superstars. Even though they go fu*k their money up with their cars and the strip clubs and all that stuffโ€”thatโ€™s headlines, thatโ€™s paper, that makes them a superstar, that makes them legends. Helwani: So how do we get this? I mean, there are no guys in our sport that are really talking like you talk. There are no guys who are really putting themselves out thereโ€”a couple, wellโ€ฆ Tyson: Oh, there are guys out there. There are guys out there. You havenโ€™t heard of them yet. Theyโ€™re out there. Youโ€™ll hear about them too. They gonna change the game. Helwani: Is it a union, maybe? Tyson: These MMA guys are gonna change the game, man. Once these guys start getting 10-million-dollar purses, 15-million-dollarโ€”โ€˜cause once they start doing thatโ€ฆsee, they got the people now around them, they got all the masses of people right in MMAโ€ฆthey ainโ€™t get the scumbags yet. Helwani: Thatโ€™s the big problem. Tyson: They ainโ€™t get the scumbags yet. You get these guys some big purses and let them be in the paper like my purses and Floydโ€ฆwait โ€˜til the scumbags get in that sport. Listen, this is the biggest growing sport in the world, and they ainโ€™t get the scumbags yetโ€”thatโ€™s amazing. (๐ŸŽ™๏ธ: Ariel Helwani / July 3, 2012)

This was awesome. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Dan Caine paid tribute to yet another unsung aspect of the joint force, focusing this time on those in artillery. โ€œNow, as I often do, I want to share a little bit about our incredible joint force. Today, Iโ€™m going to talk about our incredible artillery force comprised of American soldiers and Marines who have been sinking ships, destroying depots, and launching Army tactical missiles, missile systems, or ATACMS precision strike missiles or PRISMS, and high mobility rocket systems, or HIMARS from outside Iran. Our army and marine artillery are hitting sites that Iran relies on to project power beyond their borders and protect our deployed. In just the first 13 days of this operation, our artillery forces have made history. They fired the first precision strike missiles ever used in combat, reaching deep into enemy territory. Theyโ€™ve used Army ATACMS to sink multiple ships, including a submarine, and theyโ€™ve done all of this with the precision and determination that comes from relentless training and trust in each other and in their weapon systems.โ€ โ€œYesterday, I had the incredible honor and privilege of speaking with some of our young soldiers from the Third Battalion, 27th Field Artillery Regiment out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, the unit and the crew that fired the first precision strike missiles. The soldiers I met came from all over this great country: New York, Texas, Delaware, California. One had been in the Army only six months and had been in the unit for two months and was already deployed. He was the youngest at 20, but you would not know it from the way that they talked about their mission. The others were 22 and 28 years old. They spoke with the sense of calm, pride, purpose and clarity that tells you clearly they understand the weight of what theyโ€™re doing and the people who depend on them. I asked him to walk me through a fire mission. I asked not just what they do, but what they feel, especially those first crew members on this particular mission. These soldiers basically live in these vehicles behind us, the cab very tight. Two folks sit next to each other with the crew commander behind them. Itโ€™s jammed inside there with their personal weapons and kit, and they sit and wait for a fire mission. And when that fire mission comes, they close the armored doors and begin to program the systems. They then throw three simple toggle switches and 10 to 15 feet behind them, a rocket motor ignites and the round is headed downrange to do the nationโ€™s work.โ€ โ€œI asked these youngsters, these young, awesome Americans, what does that feel like? And one of them just looked at me and said, โ€˜itโ€™s awesome.โ€™ No drama, no hesitation. In the middle of the day, in the middle of the night, in the sun, the rain and the snow. Flawless execution. Their Marine counterparts are out there doing the same thing every night. Same work, same pressure, same expectations, same results. And we hand tremendous and enormous responsibility to these young Americans, and they carry it with a level of maturity, grit, professionalism, and tenacity that makes me incredibly proud to be a part of their joint force. Their parents and families, what could and should be incredibly proud and their leaders. And I trust them to do the deeds that they must do in difficult circumstances every single time.โ€ โ€œI also want to touch today a moment โ€” I want to touch for a moment today on their leadership. These young Americans are led by extraordinary young leaders out at the tactical edge. Yesterday, the battery commander and her NCO were there with this crew on the same video screen. The two of them hardly said a word. They didnโ€™t have to in their eyes โ€” and in particular, the commanderโ€™s eyes โ€” you could see the quiet trust and confidence she had in these soldiers and the rest of their battery. It came through loud and clear, and we appreciate their leadership. When I asked these soldiers yesterday, what is it that you need from the Secretary and I? They looked at each other, paused for a moment and look back at me and said, โ€˜more rounds, sir.โ€™ It was awesome. So, thank you to those soldiers and Marines out on the firing line supporting our mission. And thank you to their families. Our joint force will continue today to deliver dynamic fires against the enemy from the land, sea, and air. We remain deeply grateful for their service. And, for the third time today, Iโ€™ll mention that today will be our busiest day. This mission remains complex, dangerous, and difficult, and every service member has a family waiting for them to return home. And I want to thank all of the families today who are supporting their deployed forces and those doing the work here in the States.โ€

FULL TRANSCRIPT OF ELON'S CYBERCAB AND ROBOVAN PRESENTATION 00:00 Welcome 01:16 Cybercab & Future of transportation 04:33 Cost 05:53 Timeline 07:13 Self-driving technology 10:05 Inductive charging 10:24 The cities of the future 11:04 Robovan 12:13 Optimus Welcome Welcome to the We, Robot party. We have quite a show for you tonight. I think you're going to like it. As you can see, I just arrived in the Robotaxi, the Cybercab. And there's 20 more where that came from. So they've been traveling, there's no people in them. As you can see, the car is just going by with no people. We have 50 fully autonomous cars here tonight. So you'll see model Y's and the Cybercabs, all driverless. You'll be able to take a ride in the Cybercab. There's no steering wheel or pedals. So I hope this goes well, we'll find out. You see a lot of sci-fi movies where the future is dark and dismal, where it's not a future you want to be in. So, you know, I love Blade Runner, but I don't know if we want that future. We want that duster he's wearing, but not the bleak apocalypse. We want to have a fun, exciting future that, if you could look in a crystal ball and see the future, you'd be like, yes, I wish I could be there now. That's what we want. Cybercab & Future of transportation So, when we think about transport today, there's a lot of pain that we take for granted, that we think is normal. Like having to drive around LA in 3 hours of traffic. Yeah, people that live in LA, I mean, you know, try to get from Pasadena to El Segundo during rush hour. You can fly to another city faster than you can get to LA. And you have to drive the whole way, unless you're in a Tesla. Of course, our Tesla already does quite well at this supervised self-driving. So, supervised full self-driving is actually working quite well. I'm sure there's people in the crowd who are using that. So, we'll move from supervised full self-driving to unsupervised full self-driving where the car, you could fall asleep and wake up at your destination. But there's also a challenge for a lot of people that cars cost too much. I mean, when you factor in everything that goes into a car and the car insurance and the car payments, storage of the car, it's very expensive. You say, like, how many hours a week are cars used? Your average passenger car is only used about 10 hours a week out of 168 hours. So, the vast majority of the time cars are just doing nothing. But if they're autonomous, they could be used, I don't know, five times more, maybe ten times more. So you could actually, for the same car, would have five times as much value, maybe ten times as much value. There's 168 hours in the week, and like I said, only ten of them are used for driving. And then, a bunch of those hours are looking for a parking spot, which can be pretty annoying at times. So, with autonomy, you get your time back. This is a very big deal. So it's not just, it'll save lives, like a lot of lives and prevent injuries. I think we'll see autonomous cars become ten times safer than a human. I mean, if you think of times past where there used to be an elevator operator in every elevator but once in a while, they get tired and accidentally shear somebody in half. Now, we have automated elevators. You just get an elevator and you press a button and you don't even think about it and it just takes you to the floor. And if you did see an elevator operator with a big relay switch, you'd be like, that's weird. That's how cars will be. And it's not just the lives saved in injuries, but if you think about the cumulative time that people spend in a car and the time that they will get back that they can now spend, well, I guess, on their phones or watching a movie or doing work or whatever you want to do you can think of the car in autonomous world as being like just little lounge. You're just sitting in a comfortable little lounge and you can do whatever you want while you're in this comfortable little lounge. And when you get out, you will be at your destination. So, yeah, it's gonna be awesome. Cost So, in fact, I think the cost of autonomous transport will be so low that you can think of it like individualized mass transit. The average cost of a bus per mile for a city, not the ticket price, because that is subsidized, but the average price is about a dollar a mile, whereas the cost of Cybercab we think probably over time, the operating cost is probably going to be around twenty cents a mile. Including taxes and everything else, it probably ends up being 30 or 40 cents a mile. And you will be able to buy one. And we expect the cost to be below $30,000. And I think there'll be an interesting business model where, let's say somebody is an Uber or Lyft driver today where they can actually sort of manage a fleet of cars and like, sort of manage, I don't know, 10, 20 cars and just take care of them. Like a shepherd tends their flock. You have a little flock of cars and you're the shepherd and you take care of your flock of cars. I think that would be pretty cool. I think it's going to be a glorious future. It's going to be really something special. Timeline We do expect actually to start fully autonomous unsupervised FSD in Texas and California next year. And that's obviously, that's with the Model 3 and Model Y. And then we expect to be in production with the Cybercab, which is really highly optimized for autonomous transport in probably, I tend to be a little optimistic with time frames, but in 2026. So, yeah, before 2027, let me put it that way. And we'll make this vehicle in very high volume. But well, before that, you will experience a robotic taxi via the Model 3 and Model Y program and model S and X, too. But the Model 3 and Y will achieve unsupervised full self-driving with permission, in wherever regulators essentially approve it. In the US, and then to follow outside the US. And Cybertruck, too. All our cars are basically, all cars that we make. Let's not get nuanced here. Self-driving technology One of the reasons why the computer can be so much better than a person is that we have millions of cars that are training on driving. It's like living millions of lives simultaneously and seeing very unusual situations that a person in their entire lifetime would not see. With that amount of training data, it's obviously going to be much better than what a human could be because you can't live a million lives. And it's also, it can see in all directions simultaneously and it doesn't get tired or text or any of those things. So, it will naturally be, like I said 10, 20, 30 times safer than a human, just for all those reasons. And I want to emphasize that the solution that we have is, AI and vision. So, there's no expensive equipment needed. The Model 3 and Model Y and S and X that we make today will be capable of full autonomy, unsupervised. And that means that our cost of producing the vehicle is low. Now, we are going to actually over-spec the computer for the Cybercab. So, our AI 5 computer will be somewhat over-spec'd because I think there's actually also an opportunity, sort of like an Amazon Web Services, where if the car is driving for 50 hours a week, there's still over 100 hours left and there's a potential there to have a massive amount of distributed inference compute, where if you've got like a fleet of 100 million vehicles and a kilowatt of efficient inference compute, you have 100 gigawatts of compute, which is really quite substantial. And if it's there, you might as well use it so that I think will make sense. So, our autonomous future is here. As I said, we've got 50 Teslas driving autonomously. We're trying to give you a sense of what cities will be like in the future. And when you get in, you'll see like, it's really quite a wild experience to just be in a car with no steering wheel, no pedals, no controls, and it feels great. So we have enough vehicles here, so everyone should be able to try it out and experience the set that we've built here. It's a very big set. So it's like really we've used I don't know, 20, 30 acres or something like that. It's really big. So, it goes on, the ride's long. And we set it up to feel like a ride, like a park ride. So, it'll be cool and you'll get to experience it tonight. Inductive charging Something we're also doing is and it's really high time we did this is inductive charging. So, the robotaxi has no plug. It just goes over the inductive charger and charges. So, yeah, it's kind of how it should be. The cities of the future One of the things that is really interesting is how will this affect the cities that we live in. And when you drive around a city, or when the car drives you around the city, you'll see there's a lot of parking lots. There's parking lots everywhere, parking garages. What would happen if you have an autonomous world is that you can now turn parking lots into parks. And so, from we're taking the inglot out of parking lot. You're welcome. So, there's a lot of opportunity to create green space in the cities that we live in. So, like, that would be quite fantastic. Robovan Oh, and also, what happens if you need a vehicle that is bigger than a Model Y? The Robovan. We're going to make this and it's going to look like that. Now, can you imagine going down the streets and you see this coming towards you? That'd be sick. So this can carry up to 20 people, and it can also transport goods. You can configure it for goods transport within a city. Or transport of up to 20 people at a time. The Robovan is what's gonna solve for high density. If you want to take a sports team somewhere or you're looking to really get the cost of travel down to, I don't know, 5, 10 cents a mile, then you can use the Robovan. One of the things we want to do, and we've seen this with the Cybertruck, is we want to change the look of the roads. The future should look like the future. Optimus Speaking of robots. Everything we've developed for our cars, the batteries, power electronics, the advanced motors, gearboxes, the software, the AI inference computer, it all actually applies to a humanoid robot. The same techniques. It's just a robot with arms and legs instead of a robot with wheels. We've made a lot of progress with Optimus. And as you can see, we started up with someone in a robot suit. And then, we've progressed dramatically, year after year. So, if you extrapolate this, you're really going to have something spectacular, something that anyone could own. So, you can have your own personal R2-D2-C3PO. And I think at scale, this would cost something like, I don't know, $20,000, $30,000, probably less than a car is my prediction, long-term. It'll take us a minute to get to the long term. But fundamentally, at scale, the Optimus robot, you should be able to buy an Optimus robot for, I think, probably $20,000 to $30,000, long-term. And what can it do? It'll basically do anything you want. It can be a teacher or babysit your kids, it can walk your dog, mow your lawn, get the groceries, just be your friend, serve drinks whatever you can think of, it will do. And, yeah, it's going to be awesome. I think this will be the biggest product ever of any kind, because I think everyone of the 8 billion people of Earth, I think everyone's going to want their Optimus buddy. And there's going to be maybe two. And then, they'll be producing products and services. I predict, actually, provided we address risks of digital superintelligence, 80% probability of good outcome, look on the bright side, the cup is 80% full, the cost of products and services will decline dramatically. And basically, anyone will be able to have any products and services they want. It will be an age of abundance the likes of which people have not, almost no one has envisioned. It will be something special. So now, one of the things we wanted to show tonight was that Optimus is not a canned video. It's not walled off. The Optimus robots will walk among you. Please, please be nice to the Optimus robots. You'll be able to walk right up to them and they'll serve drinks at the bar. I mean, it's a wild experience just to have humanoid robots and they're there, you're just in front of you. So yeah, with that, let's party!

The most epic 13 minute AI rant I've heard in 2026 PS: My parent's heard this when I was playing it in the car and thought Jason โœจ๐Ÿ‘พSaaStr.Aiโœจ Lemkin went OFF like Stephen A Smith does on first take PPS: Full transcript below [17:00] Harry Stebbings: I I just wanted to ask Jason, if the people that we want are fundamentally different, the developers that we used to hire, we don't because AI writes the code for us. The marketers we don't want, the sales people we don't wantโ€”who who do we want genuinely? Like what is the attractive profile? Because your Anthropicโ€™s and your OpenAIs are hiring, so so what are the people that we want in the companies of the future? [17:18] Jason Lemkin: Look, I know it sounds trite, but but the answer is simple. It's just the expression each year changes. We want folks that are genuinely AI fluent. It's pretty simple. Now you know, maybe last year we called them prompt engineers, right? That used to be a job. I don't know if you remember that actually used to be the hottest job on planet earth. Now no one needs a prompt engineer because it's pretty easy to prompt all these tools. That job died. Okay. Um and now we need go-to-market engineers. Um I think that job's going to die. We needโ€”everyone needs so many forward deployed engineers. Like you can't hire enough forward deployed engineers. But uh you know um but Palantir just announced in whatever their their big their big eventโ€”they've gotten their deployment times down over 90% with forward deployed engineers. So that may becomeโ€”so the this wave of disruption for the titles and the specificity, it's also exhaustingly accelerating. But it's really simple. You meet anyone for any roleโ€”sales, marketing, engineering, product, QAโ€”they're they're either they're either they can't keep all of the ways they use AI to accelerate their job from spewing out of their mouth, or they're staring at you. It's there's nowhere in the middle. Like, and the person that comes in and saysโ€”it's it's it sounds Captain Obviousโ€”but like, you know, you just had the whatever from Lovable, the the marketing head that was super popular on the show, right? She's just spewing AI-native insights into Lovable, right? It's not that complicated. You hire her, Elena, or whatever it is. You just hire her. It doesn't matter whether she's still in college or a junior or a senior or a middler, a left or right. And honestly, if you interview people, I would say of all even of the best startups I've invested in, maybe 30% of the management team meets this standard at best. 30%. Maybe less. And of the interviews I do in general, it's single-digit percents. It's just and in in that sense, it's the same as ever. Like you either lower the bar in hiring or you hire someone that's actually great. And someone that's actually great is so far ahead of you in how to apply to to employ the efficiencies of AI in their role, your jaw falls on the table. The difference is we used to need warm bodies. That's what's changing. We used to need warm bodies to answer the call, to do QA, to do code review, to to get the blue pixel to go from the upper left to the lower right. You laugh, but you need you literally needed to brute force this with humans. With AI, every day that goes by, the AIโ€”you do not need brute force human beings on your team. And that's another reason they're shrinking. Why are all these new companies so efficient? They're just not brute forcing things with humans. They're just not. They're choosing not to. And so these teamโ€”all the brute forcers out thereโ€”everyone talks about how bloated teams got in 2021. I don't agree with that. I think they got as big as they needed to be when growth was high and you needed humans to do everything. All you look at these teams that that doubledโ€”well if growth continued at 60% like the rate in early 2021 for 5 years or can help me do the math and every single thing a software company did required a human. You were understaffed by your 2021 headcount. You'd be sitting here in 2026. You every office in SoMa would be triple packed and you there wouldn't be enough humans to staff your company. It's just the world changed. [20:33] Harry Stebbings: Jason, you live on the bleeding edge. I think me and Rory see that and I think the world sees that when they hear you every week in terms of how you run SaaS. For all of the CEOs and execs who listen to the show, what would you advise them in terms of determining whether someone is AI fluent when they meet them for jobs, for talent? [20:51] Jason Lemkin: Here's I realized I was just asked this. I just did a review with a super fast startup growing just crossing 100 million and I was asked this question. And one of my favorite executives, I thought his answer was pretty dated and because he gave me an answer that was about 6 months old. The answer 6 months old is: "I look for folks in my team, I look for you know at what tools they play with." Okay, that was a great answer in like summer of 2025. Okay, I tried Lovable last week. Okay, the answer in 2026 is: "What commercial AI tool have you brought into your organization this month?" That's the test. Anyone that is on the bleeding edge that you would want to hireโ€”now there are so many great products in the market. Okay, there is no excuse in any role to have not brought one tool a month into your organization. Okay, thereโ€”now there's going to be better and better tools and better and better products as the year goes on. What's the one you did? And you will see folks with their deer in the headlights to this question. What what sales tool? What marketing tool? What product tool? What engineering tool? What did you bring in? Why did you pick it? How does it working? Because if you're at remotely at the cutting edge, you're all over this. You're looking for the next agentic tools that will radically improve how you do business. This isโ€”you think everyone thinks SaaS is at the bleeding edge, right? You know, you know, all we do is we're just looking for the tools and trying them. Okay? Okay, we're one year ahead of everybody else because we did the simplest thing in the world. Like we tried the tools early and we trained them. We trained them for a month. Okay, I'll give youโ€”want hear a horrible example from this week? Super hot AI company valued at 6 billion. Okay, I'm not going to name it. Um, this week yesterday told us we had to quadruple what we spent on their product. Okay, their agent told us, right? And why did this happen? Okay. Well, at this $6 billion company, no one had trained the agent on its pricing properly. No one had tested it. They said, "Well, well, we've been in beta." And we said, "Well, when did the beta launch? A year ago." Okay, these are people asleep at at the wheel. You want somebody who the instant this comes up, they exactly know what the issue is. And "Hey, when I was at Lovable Replit, we trained the agent. This is how we did it. I brought in this tool. I brought in this tool that that Rory invested in last week. It solved all these issues." That's what you want to hear. And if they haven't brought in a tool in the last 30 days, at least deeply evaluated it. I don't really care whether they bought it, but gone so far down the funnel they can tell youโ€”pick whatever tool: Fixie, Regie, GC, AIGCโ€”I don't care how you went through it, you looked at it, you can tell me the eight ways it would improve the productivity of your business and three you didn't. Just don't hire that person because they're going to run your company to the ground. This is the job today. The job today is not to screw around on ChatGPT and to be a prompt engineer. The job today is to bring the best AI and agentic products into your organization and leverage all the hard work that the engineers have done building those products. That's your job. You don't have to screw around. You don't have to be a prompt engineer anymore. You have to be an agent deployment expert. Aโ€”this is the new job we're making up today. An Agentic Deployment Expert. That's your job from C-level to junior. Agentic Deployment Expert. Don't hire anybody else. You're going to regret it. They're going to stare at the camera. He's good. Stare at the camera. He's honorable. We could probably just I could slip away, get a coffee, and come back. No. And I I sound exasperated, Rory. And Iโ€”but the reason I am is I can just see I can see my best companies doing it. And I can see some companies I've invested in not doing it. And I want to cry. I just want to cry when they have no ADs on their team. I justโ€”like you're flushing your years of your life down the toilet by not approaching your how you're building this company this way. [24:33] Rory: Yes. And at the risk of being positive, it's worth pointing out two things he didn't say. Well, something implicit why he saidโ€”Jason didn't do the only hire, you know, he didn't commit the um employment law, I think it's a civil penalty of saying only employ people below X who get the new new thing because he implicitly said anyone can do it provided you're willing to learn. And I think that's the big aha that's one of the positive statements to make here right? Look and I think it appliesโ€”I'm always wary of being "Hey, coming across, hey this this is the things that you all have to do." I think it applies to everyone including investors right? I mean I will say I have found that unless you're willing to invest the time learning these tools you actually shouldn't be investing in them. One of my partners Andy had this expression: "You know, if you decide you want to stop learning new things you probably should retire within 6 to 12 months and never write another check again." Maybe that's down to 3 to 6 months at this stage, right? And I think, you know, it'sโ€” [25:27] Harry Stebbings: Yeah, I actually I actually had a meeting with mine and Jason's biggest investor the other day and Iโ€”pretend he's not hereโ€”I said I think he's the most equipped investor for this generation of investing because I don't think anyone quite sits at the bleeding edge like he does on the investor side. [25:42] Harry Stebbings: Why in terms of using the equip stuff? Yeah. Yeah. In terms of using the stuff, understanding understanding bottlenecks, constraints. For sure. [25:51] Jason Lemkin: But can I just add one point? We can just cuz it's so important if it helps people. Okay, we areโ€”and thank you Harry. We're going through these phases. Okay, and when AI started to blow up for real for us, uh call it early 2024, right? Maybe late '23, I wasn't equipped. It was too technical. I wasn't going to go in and figure outโ€”I wasn't smart enough to figure out how to deal with a massively hallucinating LLM API and turn that and turn that into something magical. Kudos to investors and others that that got it in early '23, '22. I mean I remember Iโ€”I guess it was maybe SaaStr Annual '23. I was with David Sacks and I did a Q&A and I said, "How you thinking about AI at Craft?" He's like, "Well we're all in. We want 80% of '23 of investments to be AI." I'm like, "Great but like show me the show me the great ones in market." He's like, "They're all prototypes. We're all they're all they're all proof of concepts but we're all in anyway." That's where you kind of had to be in '23 if you weren't investing at like the LLM level. Okay, I wasn't smart enough. Then we went through this weird-ass prompt engineer era where like you you could torture these products to do something good, right? But you had to torture them. You had to like craft these crazy things that made no sense. Now we are in the era where mere ordinarily smart generalists can make these tools do magical things. And literally I go to these meetings and people be like, "I don't know how to like this is so scary. I don't know how to do this." And we show them our backends. Do you know how to do a workflow generator? Do you know how to do a a decision tree? Like we've been building these since software in the '90s. Okay, if youโ€”I can show you all of our agents. The how they work is novel. They do have to be trained. You can't be lazy and have these agents work. But honestly, the the UI, the UX, the way we interact with them, it's just software. And so my point is: Pick yourself off the ground. This is your time now. If you felt lost in AI era, if you felt like you're behind, you don't understand what all these people are saying on X and Twitter and their Claude and and their and talking about all the 4.6 point Nano point and it's overโ€”like you just it's not your world. This is your time. This is your time for the generalist that knows how to use software tools really really well. And Iโ€”this is my last point but it's so important. If ever in your recent lifeโ€”and this is why you could be all you need to be is young at heart to Rory's pointโ€”if in the last three to five years you have successfully deployed a piece of enterprise software of any sort you yourself, not some agency you hired, but if you have deployed it, you can deploy any agentic tool. Any. And you can become the hero in your company and you can become the hero in your functional area. But I watch folksโ€”I'm literally helping a company now that they're adding hundreds of sales folks this year with a new pre-IPO COOโ€”he's not hasn't brought in a single tool, totally scared of it. Okay, it's not that hard. Did you use SalesLoft? Did you use Outreach? Did you use HubSpot? Do you know these tools? If you can deploy these tools, you can deploy a world-changing AI agent. And so this is the time for people like the folks that that were shut out of the AI revolution right now. The generalist folks that are not that know how to deploy software that don't even know how to build software. Like vibe coding for me was folks who knew how to build software, but you didn't have to be an engineer. Now, you just need to know how to deploy software to win with AI agents. That's all you need to know. So many people have these skills and they're petrified of AI. "How did you do that? How did you deploy an AI BDR?" Well, we bought a piece of software, we figured out how it worked for a day, we set it up in an afternoon, and then and then we did spend 30 months training it, which you didn't do with this old software because in the old days, we just had to manually upload all the data, right? And there was no training. The the only non-intuitive part is training these things. And it's it's it's just work. So that's why when I see folks on the management team not doing this, there's no excuse. You do not need to be technical to win with AI agents in Q2 of '26. You do not need to be even 1% technical. Not at all. So it's your time. Or you're going to get laid off. Or you're going to get laid off because you're not going to matter.

Ending VA Benefits For Veterans The Federal Government Says This Will Save The Deficit $250 Billions Dollars Over The Next 10 Years Not all benefits are ending but for those whose family makes over a certain amount, they will cut your VA benefits โ€œThe federal government is proposing to stop and deny disability benefits to veterans who are already receiving disability benefits. And, if you don't quite understand what that means, let me break that down. Uncle Jerry, who was in Vietnam and lost both of his legs, made too much money last year and now the disability payments that he got for not having his legs are gonna be denied. So he will get 0 money to assist him in his life after losing his legs in service because he made a couple extra dollars more than what the federal government said that he should. Let's break this tidal wave of idiocy down so you could be as furious as I am. This might be the biggest topic I've ever tackled on this frickin' channel. Do you know who the congressional budget office is? I sure as hell don't. But apparently, it's the administration, the presidencies, this current presidency's way of trying to cut the slack. Find ways to spend less money. Hey, I'm all for that. That makes sense. Right? We're kinda Inflation's up a little bit. Normally a pretty boring job like an IRS auditor, but they put out a report, a suggestion, an option is what they call it, in order to lower the deficit, save about $250,000,000,000 over the next 10 years. And it's to take away benefits from veterans who have already been receiving benefits because they're disabled. It's like pulling the carpet out from somebody inside of crutches. It's like pushing an old lady in a wheelchair down the stairs. Throw in a clip of that. Now you might say AC, how? How could this possibly the stupid Stupid idea. How could this possibly, like, move forward? How and where is it even written here just saying a bunch of political mumbo jumbo? Give me riled up. Nope. Just as a heads up, all the links are gonna be below so you can read it for yourself. And, well, let's just get into this, shall we? A means test. VA disability compensation for veterans with higher income. Now what does a means test mean? Well, it's very simple. It means that if you can afford it, that means that you ain't gonna get no benefits. So if you got some money in the bank, You are not going to receive any compensation for your injuries you sustained and confirmed and under are receiving them while overseas or serving. Kind of like these people they're about to describe. In 2021, 5,200,000 veterans received disability compensation from the VA because of medical conditions. About 280,000. 4% of them receive compensation for the first time this year. Service connected disabilities vary widely in severity and type and include loss sublimb anxiety. You mean spicy memories, AKA PTSD? And hearing loss. Oh, great. You're listing out the people that will no longer be receiving their benefits because of those injuries that they received. Really make yourself the good guys. These are truly charitable angels because they're stopping giving money to the injured people that they sent overseas. 2022 base compensation rates range from a 150 to $3,330 per month. So $3,330 a month tax free is the maximum you can get for losing a leg overseas. Alright. We should probably take that away from them, the lazy Fox, not even walking around anymore, scooting around on a wheelchair. Okay. Let's continue. Here's my favorite paragraph that tells you the mindset of these dopes that wrote this up. In 2021, the VA paid out about a 110,000,000,000 in disability benefits, 4 times the amount that it paid in 2,000. Even though the number of veterans in the United States declined by more than 30%. Spending per recipient rose from about $11,000 in 2,000 to nearly $22,000 in 2021.โ€ There are more parts of this, let me know if the comments if youโ€™d like to hear more.

๐ŸšจFOGO/SES Crisis in the Dept of War Meet Admiral Lex Walker. He is the perfect candidate to explain the current crisis of leadership within the Dept of War. Itโ€™s not just that RDML Walker was a full-throated champion of DEI (they almost all were). Itโ€™s not just that he pushed the COVID mandates hard (they all did). The issue is that the Flag and General Officers (and SES leaders) are chameleons who put their own career advancement first. They will get behind any policy or program regardless of how unprincipled it is or even if it harms their troops or military readiness. They will change their colors at a momentsโ€™ notice, change their tune if required, and even change the outward appearance of their loyalties and values. To say they are unprincipled is not only unfair, itโ€™s also not true. This is an issue of disordered principles and principles out of order. The Flag and General Officers are all driven by principles, but mostly by principles that are anathema to traditional American values. And they are ALWAYS driven by their highest principle which is their own career advancement first. The image below is the email signature that Admiral Lex Walker used for years, with the in-your-face use of a rainbow colored โ€œhe/himโ€ pronoun line. He was also the leader of the Navy Recruiting Command during one of the greatest recruiting failures in Navy history. Under his watch we had the official promotion of drag queen โ€œambassadorsโ€ like โ€œHarpy Danielsโ€ (cross-dressing Yeoman 2nd class Joshua Kelley). During the COVID-19 mandates, Admiral Walker leaned in hard, violating the Religious convictions of his subordinates and issuing severe disciplinary action against his own people after recommending denials of their Religious Accommodation requests. One of his subordinates was LCDR Levi Beaird, who RDML Walker issued misconduct charges against solely for refusing the vaccine and then supported his involuntary removal from the Navy. LCDR Beaird was later the guest of Senator Ted Cruz at the SOTU Address for all he had to endure at RDML Walkerโ€™s hands. Admiral Walker has failed upwards and was recently awarded command of President Donald J. Trumpโ€™s Carrier Strike Group 10. In this position, Admiral Walker has tried to reinvent himself. The rainbow pronouns are gone. The drag shows are no more. And he has recently put out a video (seen below in this thread) highlighting religious services available to Navy personnel. His video ironically talks about how they support Religious Accommodations. This might sound good, but remember who this is coming from. And remember the greater issue here. Itโ€™s not that they wonโ€™t follow the orders they are being given to support religious convictions or get rid of DEI. The issue is that they are a ticking time bomb of disordered and out of order principles, biding their time until a new administration makes it all easier for them to get back to the well defined path of career advancement. Can we trust them to be the best military commanders in wartime if they could not be trusted to fully support their own oaths to the Constitution? These are not the type of leaders I want leading my son if he chooses to serve his nation in the Armed Forces.

Scientists Reveal a Simple Technique to Communicate With Your Cat | Michelle Starr, ScienceAlert Cats have a reputation for aloofness (and floofiness), but if you and your feline friend aren't bonding, the problem might just be that you're not speaking their language. Never fear โ€“ research shows it's easier than you think. All you need to do is smile at them more โ€“ cat style. Not in the human way, by showing your teeth, but by narrowing your eyes and blinking slowly. By observing cat-human interactions in 2020, scientists confirmed that this simple gesture makes cats โ€“ both familiar and strange โ€“ more likely to approach and engage with humans. "As someone who has both studied animal behavior and is a cat owner, it's great to be able to show that cats and humans can communicate in this way," University of Sussex psychologist Karen McComb said when the study was published. "It's something that many cat owners had already suspected, so it's exciting to have found evidence for it." ... If you've spent any time around cats, you've probably seen their 'partially closed eyes' facial expressions, accompanied by slow blinking. It's similar to how human eyes narrow when smiling and usually occurs when the cat is relaxed and content. The expression is interpreted as a kind of cat smile. Anecdotal evidence from cat owners has hinted that humans can copy this expression to communicate to cats that we are friendly and open to interaction. To test that idea, a team of psychologists ran two experiments. The first experiment involved 21 cats from 14 different households. Once the cat was settled and comfy in one spot in their home environment, their owners were instructed to sit about 1 meter (just over 3 feet) away, and slow blink when the cat was looking at them. Cameras recorded both the owner's and the cat's faces, and the results were compared to how cats blink with no human interaction. The results showed that cats are more likely to slow blink at their humans after their humans have slow blinked at them, compared to the no-interaction condition. The second experiment included 24 cats from eight different households. This time, it wasn't the owners doing the blinking but the researchers, who'd had no prior contact with the cat. For a control, the cats were recorded responding to a no-blink condition, in which humans stared at the cats without blinking their eyes. The researchers performed the same slow-blink process as the first experiment, adding an extended hand toward the cat. And they found that not only were the cats more likely to blink back, but they were also more likely to approach the human's hand after the human blinked. "This study is the first to experimentally investigate the role of slow blinking in cat-human communication," McComb said. "And it is something you can try yourself with your own cat at home or with cats you meet in the street. It's a great way of enhancing the bond you have with cats. Try narrowing your eyes at them as you would in a relaxed smile, followed by closing your eyes for a couple of seconds. You'll find they respond in the same way themselves, and you can start a sort of conversation." Dogs may be much more enthusiastically demonstrative than cats, but this news isn't a surprise for cat lovers. Research in recent years has shown that our feline friends are much more in tune with their human housemates than previously supposed and that comparing them to dogs is a disservice. Cats, for example, respond in kind to humans who are receptive to them โ€“ so if you find cats standoffish, that might be a problem with you, not the kitty. Likewise, cats echo the personality traits of the humans they live with โ€“ this may be related to why cats seem to pick up when their humans are sad. They also can recognize their names (although they choose to ignore them a lot of the time). And their bonds with their humans are surprisingly deep. It's difficult to know why cats slow blink at humans like this. It's been interpreted as a means of signaling benign intentions since cats are thought to interpret unbroken staring as threatening. But it's also possible that cats developed the expression since humans respond positively to it. With domesticated animals, it's often impossible to tell. Either way, it does seem to help forge a rapport. And that's a good thing to know. Learning how to improve our relationships with these enigmatic animals could also be a way to improve their emotional health โ€“ not just in the home environment but across a range of potentially stressful situations. "Understanding positive ways in which cats and humans interact can enhance public understanding of cats, improve feline welfare, and tell us more about the socio-cognitive abilities of this under-studied species," said psychologist Tasmin Humphrey of the University of Sussex. "Our findings could potentially be used to assess the welfare of cats in a variety of settings, including veterinary practices and shelters." You're going to try it right now, aren't you?

Naval Ravikant: "The only true test of intelligence is if you get what you want out of life" "There are two parts to that. One is getting what you want, so you know how to get it. The second is wanting the right things, knowing what to want in the first place. I could want to be a 6'8" basketball player and I'm not going to get that. That's wanting something you can't get. But there's also wanting something that's a booby prize, prizes that are just not worth having, or that create their own problems." Naval explains how people end up in places they never meant to be: "If you're not careful, you can end up in a place in life not only that you don't want to be, but one you didn't even mean to get to. Usually people end up there because they're going on autopilot with societal expectations. Or out of guilt. Or out of mimetic desire, our desires are picked up from other people. Go to law school, go to med school, go to business school. Or it might be what your parents expect. Guilt is just society's voice speaking in your head so you'll be a good little monkey." He shares a problem most people have: "We run on these four-year cycles. You join a startup, you vest over four years. College is four years. High school is four years. You go to law school, that's a 5-year cycle. You become a lawyer, that's a 40-year cycle. These are very long cycles. But the amount of time we spend deciding what to do and who to do it with? Very short. We spend one month deciding on a job where we're going to be for 10 years." Naval's rule: "If you're making a four-year decision, spend a year thinking it through. Really thinking it through. 25% of the time." He explains the Secretary Theorem: "It turns out the optimal time to search is about a third. By a third of the way through, you've seen enough to know what the bar is. Then anybody who meets or exceeds that bar is good enough. But here's the key: it's not time-based. It's iteration-based. You need to take opportunities quickly and bail out quickly. If you look at failed relationships, the biggest regret is usually staying after you knew it was over." Naval reframes the 10,000 hour rule: "Malcolm Gladwell popularized 10,000 hours to mastery. I'd say it's actually 10,000 iterations to mastery. Iteration is not repetition. Repetition is doing the same thing over and over. Iteration is modifying it with learning and doing another version. That's error correction. If you get 10,000 error corrections in anything, you will be an expert." On pessimism vs. optimism: "You want to be skeptical about specific things, every specific opportunity is probably a fail. But you want to be optimistic in the general. Something in here is going to work out. If something fails, it was a learning experience. It was an iteration. As long as you learned something, it's a win. You don't want to jump into the first thing. But once you find the match, you have to be willing to go all in. Move your chips to the center of the table." He concludes: "Most people are stuck in this gray bit. 'I'm half in, but I don't really know.' That doesn't work. It's a barbell strategy, black or white. Explore quickly, cut losses fast. Then when you find the right thing, compound into it."

So let me get this straightโ€ฆ Meghan Markle is charging ยฃ1,400 per head for some wannabe โ€œgirls weekend,โ€ and now suddenly weโ€™re meant to believe itโ€™s all being overshadowed by โ€œsecurity concernsโ€ because someone might show up and record? I guess Meghan Markle remembered how she & Harry were secretly micโ€™d up during the jubilee celebrations, trying to discreetly record the royal family for their Netflix show. You sold tickets to strangers. You advertised the hotel, the dates, the exact location. You made it open to anyone with two grand burning a hole in their wallet. And now youโ€™re shocked someone might pull out a phone? Why is she so afraid of being recorded anyway? If youโ€™re this authentic truth-teller living your โ€œbest life,โ€ whatโ€™s the panic? Afraid the footage will show you phoning it in? Or that your curated โ€œvulnerableโ€ act cracks under real questions from actual women who paid to be there? Real people who arenโ€™t hand-picked Sussex Squad sycophants. This is the same tired playbook every single time. When something flops or doesnโ€™t sell the way it should, cue the drama, cue the fear narrative, cue the โ€œweโ€™re under threatโ€ storyline. Itโ€™s never โ€œthis didnโ€™t land,โ€ itโ€™s always โ€œpoor me, look at the danger.โ€ Also, thanks to Zandi for perfectly showing the exact kind of fans Meghan actually wants in the room - the toxic, conspiracy-fueled echo chamber who attack everyone else while crying victim. For once, thanks to the media for shining the spotlight on it too. Now Meghanโ€™s stuck in a perfect lose-lose: if she hosts Zandi like nothing happened, she looks like she endorses that garbage and her โ€œwellnessโ€ event turns into a squad echo chamber of mean girls. If she kicks her out or distances herself? Well, that wonโ€™t look great either, alienating the die-hard supporters who prop up her whole narrative. You canโ€™t curate the crowd when the tickets are this desperate. What a brutal little dilemma sheโ€™s created for herself. ๐Ÿคญ Letโ€™s be honest, the real security threat here isnโ€™t some random with a hidden camera. Itโ€™s the mirror. Itโ€™s the low demand. Itโ€™s the optics of who sheโ€™s welcoming. Itโ€™s the constant pivot from โ€œwe sold out instantlyโ€ to โ€œweโ€™re under threatโ€ the moment the cash flow slows. Piece of advice: stop selling access if youโ€™re this scared of being seen raw. Or maybe, just maybe, the real security risk is the mirror showing a grifter whose brand only works when everythingโ€™s tightly controlled.
