Why aren’t YOU gals doing anything to keep US students in U.S. colleges? @PattyMurray @MariaCantwell @RepMGP @RepDelBene Y’all don’t say what women are, so how can we expect you to say what an AMERICAN college student is? @NCAA @espn
Once again Coach…you are correct. This is why I went to Washington DC last week to push for changes. This has become totally preposterous

Practically prophetic…
In 1979 a talk show host tried to corner a Nobel economist on live television about greed. Two minutes later the professor had taken him apart so cleanly that the clip is still passed around 45 years after it aired. His name was Milton Friedman. He won the Nobel Prize in economics in 1976 and spent decades at the University of Chicago shaping how governments around the world think about money. The host leaned in with the question everyone thinks is a trap. Isn't capitalism just built on greed. Friedman did not flinch. He asked one question back that flipped the whole room. Tell me, is there some society you know that does not run on greed. His point was simple and it stings. There is no system run by angels. The question is never whether people chase their own interest. They always will. The only question is whether the rules push that self interest into building things other people actually want. The footage is grainy. The suit is from another era. The argument has not aged a day.

Let's examine what REALLY happened. When Donald Trump was a private citizen, a government contractor stole his private tax data and leaked it to the media. Because the government failed to protect his private records, Trump and his family sued the IRS for $10 billion. On May 18, 2026, the Justice Department settled the case. Trump agreed to walk away with zero dollars for himself. In exchange, the government put $1.776 billion into an "Anti-Weaponization Fund" to help ordinary citizens who say they were also unfairly targeted by federal agencies. The government also agreed to completely drop its ongoing tax audits against Trump's businesses. Trump declined $10 billion he was statutorily entitled to under 26 U.S.C. § 7431 and converted it into a compensation pool for other citizens, so calling this a corrupt enrichment scheme is factually backwards. If anyone else got that award they would have taken it and ran. Joe Biden and every other Democrat out there. The fund’s text explicitly says “there are no partisan requirements to file a claim,” meaning Democrats, independents, and Republicans are equally eligible. The audit waiver is bound to pre-May-18-2026 conduct, not “perpetuity immunity forever” as the ridiculous media and out of job former attorney Liz Oyer claims. Biden pardoned Hunter for crimes he was actually convicted of and Jim Biden while Jim was under two active federal investigations, with an 11-year window and zero public-facing remedy and the same commentators called that defensible. Literally. So the Biden family could issue pardon for crimes committed and active investigations but Trump, who was actually agreed and is statutory entitled to this money set up a fund to help Americans who were victims of political persecution, and the demented media is calling it some kind of corrupt act? Of course that same demented media wants judicial oversight. Would that be the judicial oversight that consistently rules incorrectly in any case involving Trump and gets overruled sometimes 9-0 at the Supreme Court? Not one prior U.S. president has faced this volume of criminal prosecution, civil litigation, and unauthorized disclosure of confidential financial records simultaneously, so pretending this is a normal political cycle is dishonest bs. The Obama administration used the exact same Judgment Fund mechanism in Keepseagle $760M, no congressional appropriation and the press called that justice. But it was actually much worse because in the Obama case this settlement was made against the advice of career DOJ officials who thought they could win at court. Trump personally receives zero dollars, zero damages, and zero direct financial benefit from the settlement the only thing he gets is the audit waiver as protect protection so he won’t be targeted by the same Weaponized government should they ever get power again. Congress will never legislatively compensate Jan 6 defendants, FACE Act defendants, or dismissed-case targets, so the choice was this fund or no remedy at all for documented victims of politically motivated federal action. The media is very dishonest in this country and there’s a lot of experts who are even more dishonest. I am not an expert at anything except research and common sense. It is just basic common sense that when you have a president issue blanket, pardons for crimes that nobody even knows about that may or may not have been committed on his way out, and the media doesn’t bat an eye, but then you have a president who is actually wronged and who uses his settlement money to help those who are also politically persecuted smeared as corrupt the problem is the media. -Insurrection Barbie

Bezos went on CNBC yesterday and said "You could double the taxes I pay and it's not gonna help that teacher in Queens." And all the bureaucrats and socialists lost their minds. Promise the teacher a raise. Tax everyone. Launder the money through Washington. Then blame the billionaire. We aren't morons Ro, we've seen this before. Bezos said the bottom half of earners should pay zero federal income tax. A nurse in Queens making $75K hands the IRS $12K a year. He said cut it to zero. She keeps her full paycheck. No bs refund, paperwork or shady government program. Simple. They won't do it. And you should ask yourself why. They don't ACTUALLY want to help anyone. They just want to pretend they tried and get your votes while making you hate the ppl they scammed. They want the money to flow through Washington, the city, every ponzi department and consultant and charity so each one can wet their beak. By the time it reaches the teacher it's maybe $100, if that... And then they'll blame the billionaire who hasn't paid their "fair share." Right Warren??? Lets take a gander at Mamdani's education budget. NYC spends $42K per student per year, 3x the national average ($15K). Highest in America. Florida pays $9K. NYC spends more per pupil than most people pay for private school or college. Its frickn insane. The budget has gone up every year, enrollment has gone down. With all that money only 3 out of 10 kids can read in the 8th grade. Cuba can read better english and they speak spanish lol. So where is the money going? Def not to teachers. but shh, ro doesn't want you to know that. A starting teacher in NYC makes $65K. Mamdani's city spends $42K per kid, runs a $40B budget. You could pay every teacher six figures with that money and have 12 kids per a classroom. But thats too logical. It goes to administrators. Consultants. Overtime. Unions. Friends and family businesses. Pensions for people who left a decade ago. Studies about studies. Buildings that take ten years to renovate. Everyone else but the kids, teachers and actual schools THERE IS ENOUGH MONEY. Politicians decide where the money goes. Teachers are underpaid because of how government spends money. Not because Bezos doesn't pay enough. Then they stand outside a billionaire's apartment with a camera and tell you he's the problem. That's the SCAM. Ro Khanna says tax billionaires to fund $60K teacher salaries. NYC already spends enough to fund $100K teacher salaries. The money's there, Ro. Your people are the ones who won't give it to her. Federal level is the same story. DOE spending up 649% since 2000 and kids aren't any smarter. GAO found $186 billion in improper payments last year. $3 trillion in errors since 2003. It’s criminal. Stop taxing the nurse. No bureaucracy. Just let the woman keep her full paycheck. Outrage is deflection. They'd rather she pay. Because her keeping her own money doesn't fund the machine and they lose the one thing that keeps the whole racket going: a billionaire to blame.

High compensation in and if itself doesn't deter corruption, there needs to also be accountability. There needs to also be a strict ban on insider trading and bribery with real consequences.

BREAKING NEWS: A concerned citizen in the Renton area reached out to me and dropped off hundreds of undelivered ballots. THIS is evidence of WA's election integrity and security issues. He found the ballots in a box. On the ground. Next to a dumpster. Behind a strip mall. The concerned citizen says he contacted King County Elections. No interest. WA Secretary of State. Nothing. His Congress representative. Nothing. So, he came to me. This is a mess. At least a few of these ballots show up in the state election history web page as having been cast! THIS is why we need the Voter ID initiative/IP26-500. It will help clean up the state's registered voter database. And avoid boxes of misplaced ballots, sitting in a box. Next to a dumpster behind a strip mall in Renton. facebook.com/share/v/1AiKwPW…

Hannah Dubyne, a realtor from Clark County, did an excellent 'by the facts' breakdown of the new Washington income tax. Worth watching and sending to friends who are not in the loop, as it goes over how consequential it is going to be for our state.

While I’m no fan of think tanks, gotta say- this couldn’t explain it better. Do share. Share it as much as possible.
🚨 NEW: While every talking head screams "Iraq 2.0," @barbaramboyd explains what they'll NEVER tell you — 118 years of British financial control over Iran, and why Trump just struck the last piece on the Empire's chessboard.

Unrealized gains tax for Gen-Z: You buy a Pokémon card for $50. Someone offers you $500 for it. You say no. You love that card. You're keeping it. The government says: "Cool, but that card is worth $500 now. You owe us $100 in taxes." You: "…I didn't sell it." Government: "Don't care. Pay up." You don't have $100 lying around. So you're forced to sell the card you love just to pay a tax on money you never received. Next month? That card drops back to $50. Your card is gone. Your money is gone. And the government shrugs. That's a wealth tax on unrealized gains. They don't pay you back the tax... Now picture this. Your mom calls you crying. She has to sell the house she raised you in. Not because she can't afford it. She's lived there 30 years. It's paid off. But some website says it's worth more now and the government says she owes $15,000 she doesn't have. So she sells your childhood home. The kitchen where she made you breakfast. The doorframe where she marked your height every birthday. Gone. To pay a tax on money that was never real. Now picture the opposite. Your dad put everything into his small business. For 20 years he built it from nothing. One year the business is "valued" at $2 million on paper. He owes a massive tax bill. He empties his savings. Sells his truck. Borrows money. Pays it. Next year the market crashes. His business is worth $200,000. He lost everything to pay a tax on a number that doesn't exist anymore. Does the government give him his money back? No. Does the government give him his truck back? No. Does the government care? No. They sold this idea as "taxing billionaires." But billionaires have armies of lawyers, offshore accounts, and trusts. They'll be fine. You know who won't be fine? Your mom. Your dad. Your neighbor with a small business. The farmer down the road who's had the same land for four generations and now has to sell it because dirt got expensive. You're not taxing wealth. You're taxing people for owning things. It's like getting a parking ticket for a car you might drive somewhere someday. They want you to own nothing and be happy. To fund the fraud, waste and abuse of the welfare state they created. There is enough money. More tax isn't needed. It's all a lie. But you've been gaslit into believing this is a rich vs poor debate. I hope you understand what's at stake.

Did you know C.S. Lewis predicted the modern obsession with “being nice” would destroy the soul? In The Abolition of Man, Lewis argues that when a society stops believing in objective virtue, it doesn’t become tolerant… it becomes manipulable. He calls the result “men without chests.” People with appetites and intellects, but no courage, no honor, no trained moral instincts. They can calculate everything and defend nothing. Lewis saw that once we reject inherited moral law, we don’t become free. We become raw material… easily shaped by propaganda, pleasure, and fear. Modern man prides himself on compassion while quietly surrendering every standard that once gave compassion meaning. Lewis’s insight is brutal: a civilization that educates clever cowards will eventually be ruled by tyrants or technicians. Because when nothing is worth dying for, everything becomes negotiable… including human dignity.

Imagine throwing a “No Kings” protest funded by oligarchs after your party refused to hold a primary, coronated Kamala without a single vote, sued to keep RFK off the ballot, arrested, indicted, charged, convicted, censored, gagged, and raided Trump only after your illegal lawfare scheme failed. If there was a modern day monarchy in America there would be one party you could point to. The Democrats.
