We tried to rent a 50-ton crane to lift the statue. The company refused. They said it was too risky because the statue was too heavy for the crane. So we lifted it with our 16-ton crane.

BREAKING: There has just been a huge surge of earthquake activity and inflation at the Halema'uma'u summit caldera for Kilauea Volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii from a new intrusion of magma. So far all the activity appears to be localized to the summit region within Volcanoes National Park, but well Kilauea is part of one of the largest dynamic volcanic systems on Earth. I would say by the very nature of this sudden change, the risk of a large significant event occurring that could impact residents is much higher than normal (let's not ignore common sense). Think an unexpected volcanic eruption near residents or a powerful earthquake. There is no guarantee this will occur - we certainly hope it does not - but it's possible and there is a long history to point back to. We know that magma can move quickly from one place to another through the subterranean lava tubes and "magma plumbing system" of Hawaii, so it's irresponsible to assume this huge body of magma just below the surface in the Halema'uma'u Caldera will only stay put. If you live on the Big Island stay sharp and keep an eye out for official updates from the USGS and NPS. I will also continue to post my own independent analysis. More info in the comments.

Former Congressman Adam Kinzinger is under investigation for trading on Kalshi about a preemptive pardon he received from former President Biden.  Luckily for Kinzinger, Biden already pardoned him for getting investigated over betting on his pardon.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump just revealed the EXACT MOMENT he told Secret Service, “GET YOUR A*SES IN THE CAR” after they suggested CANCELING his Oklahoma rally over weather “This was NOT an easy trip.” 😅 “They said, sir, I think we're going to have to cancel Oklahoma, the weather is terrible. You can't take the helicopter, sir. You can't take the plane. I said, what can it take? Well, it's a very long drive.” “I said, how long? They said, it could be long, sir. I said, how fast does the beast travel? They said, we can go close to a hundred miles per hour.” “I said, GET YOUR A*SES IN THE CAR!” BEST PRESIDENT EVER 🔥 These patriots waited HOURS for Trump in OK He was not going to let them down!

The statue of Prometheus is finally finished. It was cast in Paris, crossed the Atlantic, and was assembled at Starbase. It took us 100 days to go from nothing to this. People of the West, we have lived through an era devoid of dreams, devoid of destiny. But the time has come to reclaim our dream of antiquity. In a few months, we will start building a new city. It will be the most magnificent city in all of history. After all, the great dream of the West has always been to rebuild Rome. Come walk beside us in this endeavor. The world is waiting.

First off, is there even a question here? “Ignoring all of the luminescentily glaring reasons Luka Doncic has obliterated whatever “pre-draft hype” (he AiNt PlAyeD GoNzaGa !!!🥴)…. Has he lived up to the hype?” Huh? I present a photo Montage of why a Slovenian player doesn’t win any “votes” in the NBA mean girls- you can’t sit with us -club. Welcome to now. Luka shoved Slovenia down the liberal media’s throat this year, … and the first thing he told media when he got back to LA. “I missed you guys…no, really”🤣 I don’t know what kind of media game Luka’s playing this year. But I’m here for it. F that MVP, the vote is rigged.
Luka has one finals appearance and two WCF appearances. Based on the hype on him, with no MVPs but six All-NBA first-team selections, has he lived up to his pre-draft hype? Disregard the INSANE decision by three teams to pass on him, most folks knew how great he was coming in

Watching the Becerra - Hilton debate. Sigh. Such a beat-down. We now know why Dem operatives are keeping Becerra in the basement. Brutal night for #XavierBecerra

Trump has again repeated, as of yesterday, the “untruth” that he held the “first ever midterm convention”… for Republicans yes…but not so for Democrats… Daniel… your intrepid colleague beat you to the punch and I bet you’re still embarrassed, (except he never finished the story…)—or I would think so…as of yesterday he repeated again the “first ever” convention untruth and you’ve yet corrected him. It was a Republican first ever… @grok why did the Democrats start and then stop… having “mid - term Conventions”…also they were gonna have one this year but canceled it because of “funds” but truly cancelled because they knew what was coming, from past experience.
This remains one of the president's most ludicrous lies. He lost California by 30 points in 2016 (more than 4 million votes), 29 points in 2020 (more than 5 million votes), and 20 points in 2024 (more than 3 million votes).

🚨UPDATE:🚨Late this evening, Benny Caldera Jr., 40, was arrested by the FBI at the Bexar Co. Jail to face additional federal charges in connection with a possible planned attack at the Texas State Capitol. Caldera Jr. was then released from the Bexar Co. Jail into federal custody, where he will remain. He is not out on bond. At this time, there is no reason to believe there is an ongoing threat to the Texas State Capitol. DPS will continue an increased posture at the Texas Capitol and encourages ALL Texans to remain vigilant.

It was supposed to be CNN's turn in the TV press pool tomorrow, and they were listed when the week's rotation was released on Sunday, but tomorrow's press guidance from the White House has no listing for the TV feed.

SOUTH TEXAS IS FIRED UP. 🇺🇸🔥 The energy was ELECTRIC. The message was loud and clear: We are fighting for FAITH. FAMILY. FREEDOM. Thank you, Vice President @JDVance, for coming to South Texas and standing with us. THIS IS OUR HOME. THIS IS OUR TIME. LET’S GO WIN! 🇺🇸

The Dem problem in Texas can be described like the Japanese defined the US - a gun behind every blade of grass. There are counties no one from elsewhere could find on a map - Wood, Hunt, Van Zandt, Harrison, Lavaca, Grayson, Clay rolling out 30,000 votes at +65% GOP margins. I could go on and on. If they vote, Dems lose. The GOP spending a massive war chest on Harris, Fort Bend, and Bexar Counties would cripple any chance Dems have for the next 30 years. We need to stop trying not to offend suburbanites and pull a Miami in these urban areas.

This is hilarious..
Andrew Ross Sorkin gushes over Trump's new America. gov website on live TV while Joe Kernen sits there stunned. Sorkin is not a Trump fan, and he lets that be known. But the moment he said the word "credit," Kernen nearly fell out of his chair. SORKIN: “I want to be clear. I am actually not critical of the president in this instance at all, because I actually think it was great to bring everybody together.” “For 29,000 websites, the ability to get a passport, the ability to get your medicare. I mean, the it was like being at a product. It was like being at an Apple product announcement. And when they went through what they did and the president was there in the morning and walked through what they were doing, and Marco Rubio was there, Scott Bessent was there, the whole cabinet was there. It was one of those moments where you actually thought the government was working for you, really? And Gebbia deserves an extraordinary amount of praise for it.” KERNEN: “Do you feel great? Are you have the warmest fuzziest feeling right now listening.” SORKIN: “And by the way, the president deserves credit for that." KERNEN: "Oh my God!" SORKIN: "Credit for putting you in that role. And Jeb and his team putting it all together.” KERNEN: “So now I'm getting hot flashes. Wow. So this is just amazing.” CONTEXT (What happened): Trump launched America. gov, a single government site meant to replace 29,000 federal websites for things like passports and Medicare. It was built by Airbnb co-founder Joe Gebbia, and Sorkin was in the room for the demo. Sorkin also credited the Trump accounts interface as "really easy to use" and "like using a real app."
