Over 300 MILLION American citizen's files stolen by DOGE.

Why can't 1 person with access steal the EPSTEIN Files?

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

Bannon is urging Trump to deport Musk www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

This just keeps getting more upside down.

Steve Bannon says he’s advising Trump to cancel all of Elon’s federal contracts and launch multiple investigations into the world’s richest man.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.
