Beskrivelse

What do you know about Iran? This article was written by a 26-yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspective My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us! I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around. I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it. Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose. These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought. We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!! Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ?? Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity." Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in. When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided. My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress. Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country. People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism. Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism. We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

Trump Works the Left - Weekend Recap 06-21-26

Another segment where I show you Leftism at work, which means it fails. That was a trick. Leftists don’t work, Silly! Leftism is LA-ZY! Trump is the KING of workarounds. Democrats try their skullduggery, and Trump kick ‘em where it hurts. How frustrating it is for Democrats to try so hard to stop Trump and he just gets more powerful! I see why they are INSANE and want to attack anything MAGA. Have you seen MAGA people fighting back? Literally knocking Leftists out. ALL OVER THE WORLD. The world is getting Trumpified! The Iran deal was struck. Will it last. If it doesn’t, then Iran will have HELL to pay. Trump is not playing around. Democrats claimed that Trump gave into Iranian demands. Sure he did. We can believe tha. That information is as reliable as we didn’t fund gain of function.  Because how all winners work. They get you by the yin/yang then GIVE UP And why wouldn’t Trump give up. Iran has no navy, air force. Buckle up, because today we’re diving headfirst into the geopolitical equivalent of watching a bully pick a fight with the wrong guy… then spend the next round begging for his mommy while his wallet’s on fire. Iran’s out here sending more mixed signals than a Tinder date who can’t decide if she’s ghosting you or proposing marriage. One minute they’re chest-thumping about their mighty empire, the next they’re quietly hoping Trump doesn’t notice them long enough to reload. I don’t lose sleep over their leadership vacuum—seems like they’ve got about as much coherent direction as a room full of cats chasing laser pointers. But here’s what I do know: you keep poking the guy who wrote the modern playbook on “maximum pressure,” and eventually you’re not getting a sternly worded letter. You’re getting precision-guided consequences. And let me tell you, the precision has been surgical. While the usual chorus of cable news geniuses and Leftist foreign policy “experts” were busy declaring Trump’s strategy a disaster, he was busy turning Iran’s economy into a cautionary tale for anyone thinking about messing with American interests.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy [https://art19.com/privacy] and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info [https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info].

White House Fights - Weekend Recap 06-21-26

Do Democrats really hear themselves, when they make the most asinine statements? That was a montage of Leftists who declared at one point that Elon Musk is stupid. And this was when Musk might become a trillionaire with just Tesla. Remember how they hated the man they used to love. The man who developed the first mass-production EV vehicle, revolutionized the car industry. The god of Green. Yes, the very same. [X] SB – Stephen Moore… How proud we should be. Great country… But as soon as he declared that he was no longer interested in supporting Leftist ideology, we learned how stupid one of the smartest men on earth is. Are Democrats even capable hiding their idiocy? Dinesh D’Souza tweeted: Notice how socialists never talk about seizing the wealth of George Soros or any of the other multi-billionaires who bankroll their operations. They would be praising Elon to the sky, and vigorously protecting his wealth, if he were politically on their side. And nobody illustrated that better than Elizabeth Warren. [X] SB – Elizabeth Warren on Elon Musk trillionaire Hanging on by their fingernails More money, wealth… Not a fluke. Feature of a rigged economy Healthcare cut. Tax breaks. Rewards CEOs. Loopholes Effective tax rate Student loan debt See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy [https://art19.com/privacy] and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info [https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info].

No Solace for Democrats - Weekend Recap 06-20-26

One group sees a guy who helped revolutionize electric vehicles, private space flight, satellite communications, artificial intelligence, robotics, and who knows what he'll tackle next. The other sees a tax form that hasn't been filled out aggressively enough. That's the divide. Conservatives tend to look at extraordinary achievement and ask, "What can we learn from it?" Leftists look at extraordinary achievement and ask, "Who allowed this?" And nobody illustrated that better than Elizabeth Warren. The moment Musk crossed the trillion-dollar threshold, Warren responded exactly the way your neighborhood HOA president responds when somebody paints their house a color she didn't approve. Not curiosity. Not admiration. Not even skepticism. Immediate regulatory panic. "We need a wealth tax." Of course. Because in Washington, every accomplishment eventually gets translated into government revenue. Build a company? Tax it. Create jobs? Tax them. Invent something revolutionary? Tax that too. At some point they'll propose taxing ambition itself. The Left treats wealth the way medieval villagers treated comets. They don't understand where it came from, but they're convinced it means something terrible. And what fascinates me isn't Warren. She's doing what Warren does. What fascinates me is how many people share the same mindset. They see Elon Musk and think he somehow won capitalism's lottery. As if Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink, Neuralink, X, and AI were all purchased at a gas station with a lucky scratch-off ticket. As if a trillion dollars simply appeared one morning in his checking account. No process. No risk. No sacrifice. No years of being told he'd fail. Just poof. A trillion dollars. The reality is far less magical and far more irritating to his critics. Musk spent years being mocked by people who have never built anything larger than a political mailing list. Tesla was supposed to fail. SpaceX was supposed to fail. Starlink was supposed to fail. His purchase of Twitter, now X, was supposed to be the business equivalent of driving a Ferrari into a lake. The experts assured us. The analysts assured us. The journalists assured us. The politicians assured us. At one point, the only thing growing faster than Musk's companies was the list of people predicting their collapse. And here's the remarkable thing. Every prediction failed. Every obituary was premature. Every declaration that Musk had finally overplayed his hand turned into another example of why the people making the predictions should never be trusted with lottery numbers.

Ending Iran and Trillionaires - Weekend Recap 06-20-26

The other administration keeps the teenager grounded until the report card improves. And here's the part that really makes Leftists uncomfortable. The officials involved openly credited not just Trump's current term but his first term as well. Remember all those sanctions Democrats hated? Remember all those pressure campaigns they called reckless? Remember all the experts who assured us maximum pressure wouldn't work? Funny thing about pressure. Sometimes it works. Especially when the alternative is allowing a regime to keep funding terrorism while pretending they're interested in peaceful coexistence. The briefing described the negotiations as fruitful because of the degradation of Iran's economy and the scattering of its government. Read that again. The very conditions Democrats criticized were the conditions that produced the leverage. It's the geopolitical equivalent of complaining that a diet isn't working while standing on a scale showing you've lost fifty pounds. One official even joked that the nuclear portion was easier than expected because Iran now needs American technical expertise to clean up the mess. That may be my favorite sentence in the entire briefing. For decades Iran's leadership chanted "Death to America." Now they're apparently calling customer support. "Hello, yes, we'd like help with the radioactive dust." That is not exactly the image of a conquering superpower. And perhaps the funniest part is watching the same people who spent years insisting Trump was a reckless warmonger now complain that he negotiated from a position of strength. Which one is it? If he's incompetent, why did Iran sign? If he's reckless, why is there a deal? If he had no leverage, why are the Gulf States celebrating? The administration says regional partners largely support the agreement because they viewed previous arrangements as empowering Iran to be a bad actor. Translation: The people who actually live near Iran preferred pressure to appeasement. Shocking. Apparently geography still matters. And while all this is happening, Democrats are left holding the world's most expensive collection of bad predictions. They predicted Trump would start World War III. They predicted economic catastrophe. They predicted diplomatic isolation. Instead, Iran is signing agreements that basically amount to: "We promise to behave." The same regime that spent nearly half a century telling the world it would never bend is now sitting at a negotiating table asking what it must do to regain access to markets. That's not victory. That's surrender with paperwork. And that's why the Left is struggling so hard to explain what just happened. Their entire narrative required Trump to fail.

Love to Hate - Ep 26-242

There were literally 1000s of videos from people from all over the world and all walks of life LOVING America. That's all it took for them to experience us. One visit. One meal. One conversation. And decades of anti-American propaganda started collapsing like a cardboard submarine. Turns out reality remains undefeated. And thank God for that. https://nypost.com/2026/06/16/us-news/fbi-arrests-5-people-in-connection-with-drone-attack-plot-against-white-house-ufc-freedom-250-event/ At this point, even the Iranians have to be impressed. Not by America's military. Not by our technology. Not by our economy. By Democrats. Because nobody in modern history has shown this level of commitment to a bad idea. According to reports, the FBI foiled a multi-stage attack planned for the White House UFC Freedom 250 event. [SEGMENT 2-1] Love to Hate 2 [X] SB – Chinese cross burner I want him gone right now. I think he should stand trial By “end”, I don’t mean the civil war. Lu… Lu protesting MAGA Christian nationalist supporters And when I read the details, I didn't know whether to treat it as a criminal complaint or the script for a movie that even Hollywood rejected for being too unrealistic. The alleged plan was to use explosive drones to create panic, funnel crowds into sniper kill zones, and then launch a second-wave assault on the White House. Let's stop right there. Because before we discuss politics, ideology, or motive, we need to appreciate the staggering confidence required to come up with this plan. You are talking about attacking the White House. Not a White House tour. Not the gift shop. The actual White House. While Donald Trump is there. Surrounded by Secret Service agents whose entire job description can be summarized as, "We ruin your day before breakfast." And that's before we get to the event itself. Of all the gatherings in America, they allegedly chose a UFC event. Think about the target selection. A UFC event. At the White House. Hosted by Donald Trump. Protected by the Secret Service. Covered by every camera known to mankind. And attended by people who consider getting punched unconscious a recreational activity. That's your target? That's like robbing Fort Knox during a police convention. That's like picking a fight at a family reunion hosted by the Corleones. It's almost admirable. Not the evil part. The confidence. The belief that somehow this would work. At some point in the planning meeting, somebody had to say, "What if the highly trained federal agents, military personnel, snipers, and professional fighters fight back?" And apparently the room responded, "Let's circle back to that later." What fascinates me isn't just the alleged attack. It's the silence. Can you imagine the media response if we had spent the last ten years watching one assassination attempt after another against Barack Obama? Imagine if there had been repeated plots, repeated arrests, repeated security scares. CNN would have a permanent countdown clock. MSNBC would have hired grief counselors.
