For anyone interested in history here, I’m going to start posting original research/articles that I’ve published in the hope that it makes it into the various history feeds.

I’ve dedicated the last ten years to researching the first U.S. coin - here’s a brief history:

Act of Independence - American Numismatic Association
Within hours of receiving the news that the Revolutionary War had been won, the United States ordered its first coin to be struck.

And does this mean there’s some sort of revelation that’s about to drop?
Sounds like a dare to me.

This is around the time X told Trump, “you’re not the president — you need to go away.”
The new Omen reboot is making Trump nervous.

Really would be great if more journalists started talking about his dramatic pivot after he got a huge payoff from Jeff Yass, and how likely it is that he’s been getting money from autocratic governments that he suddenly loves and doesn’t tariff as much as our allies.

The only entity “controlled by China, or other foreign or domestic companies” is the guy pushing tariffs.

Just curious about why Elon incorporated something called “United States of America, Incorporated” late last year…

Did Elon Musk Create A Mysterious Corporation Called ‘United States Of America Inc’?
While the company’s purpose is unknown, it shares its name with a widely debunked conspiracy theory, and follows Trump’s claim that Musk will lead a proposed government efficiency commission.

The same guy who stole top secret documents is now responsible for suspending USAID workers for not sharing classified materials with Elon Musk’s operatives, none of whom have security clearance.

It’s a coup.

It’s Black History Month, so it’s a good time to remember that the press used to strike the first coins issued by the United States was operated by an enslaved man. His name was Aaron, and the man who enslaved him was paid four shillings per day for his labor.

It's not as if people hadn't been infected by his repeated racist and prejudicial statements throughout his 50 years of public life. Couldn't possibly be what we've seen in plain sight. No, not that.

How were so many people able to predict that Trump would blame DEI for the crash? Must be a psychic mind virus making the rounds.

It's interesting that the MAGA baboons who scream bloody murder at any mention of a tax increase are cheering for this, almost as if they have no fucking idea what a tariff is. Trump is probably hoping he can use the money in some sort of slush fund for Putin and the Saudis.
