People forget but the buildout of railroads was pretty much the same. Skeptics calling it an affront to nature and people. Captured press boosting it. Duplicate lines wasting tons of capital. Fantasy projections of revenue that never materialized. It was the greatest bubble in history.

There is no reason to be concerned about this. History gives us precisely no examples of would-be authoritarians using fake emergencies as cover for seizing absolute power. My suggestion would be for all Americans and especially all politicians in Washington to continue doing whatever they're doing.

Elon is still claiming this morning he never went to Epstein parties despite emails showing him begging to attend Epstein parties on his island.

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Elon Musk (@elonmusk). The post, dated January 31, 2026, reads: "I have never been to any Epstein parties ever and have many times call for the prosecution of those who have committed crimes with Epstein. The acid test for justice is not the release of the files, but rather the prosecution of those who committed heinous crimes with Epstein."

Trump is blatantly lying about the shooting now. We all saw the video.

I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate!
