If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost.

The 4th largest economy in the world, bigger than the UK or India. Tech, film, food, energy — it drives the nation.
Trump hates that California proves progressive policies work. That diversity creates strength. That innovation beats grievance.
