I DONT LIKE TRUMP … but credit where it’s due: his push for serious investment in advanced nuclear is the kind of bold, future-focused energy policy America actually needs. Wish more leaders had the guts to think this big about clean power. #NuclearEnergy #PolicyMatters

40M people on SNAP isn’t “lazy,” it’s proof wages don’t cover basics. Most recipients already work. Fraud is under 3%. Undocumented immigrants have never qualified. Stop blaming culture… start blaming greed.

Nations that borrow to produce, progress.
Nations that borrow to consume, collapse.
Pakistan’s choice is simple — dignity or dependence.
It’s time to borrow smart, invest wise, and end the cycle of fiscal slavery.

Pakistan’s Never-Ending IMF Story: Borrowing for Survival, Not for Growth When Will We Finally Learn? Each time an IMF tranche lands in Pakistan, it’s celebrated like Eid in the corridors of power — applause in the Ministry of Finance, cheers at the State Bank, and smiling headlines across media outlets. Yet, outside those air-conditioned rooms, the nation braces for another storm — higher taxes, costlier electricity, inflated fuel prices, and a tighter noose around the common man’s neck. It’s no rocket science, but it seems we’ve forgotten the basics of economics. Borrowing for growth fuels progress. Borrowing for survival fuels decay. When nations borrow to invest in education, agriculture, manufacturing, and technology, they build wealth, capacity, and resilience. They create jobs, exports, and innovation — a cycle of productivity that strengthens both people and currency. Let’s be brutally honest — it never does. We’ve borrowed for decades and built little to show. We’ve paid interest in billions yet gained no self-reliance. Worse still, we’ve built a culture where even educated professionals and economists rush to congratulate each new loan approval, as though dependence were a national trophy 🏆. That applause is not patriotism — it’s economic servitude dressed as success. It’s not about politics — it’s about priorities and dignity. A proud nation borrows to produce, not to consume. A wise nation borrows to rise, not to survive. The formula is simple — yet forgotten: Nations that borrow to produce, progress. Nations that borrow to consume, collapse. It’s time Pakistan breaks the chain of fiscal dependence and redefines what “economic success” really means. #EconomicGrowth #PakistanEconomy #DebtCrisis #FiscalResponsibility #PublicFinance #IMF #EconomicReform #Leadership #Accountability #FutureGenerations #PolicyMatters #BorrowingForGrowth #SustainableDevelopment #ThinkPakistan #FinancialLiteracy

They tried to repeal the EPA’s endangerment finding—you know, the one that says greenhouse gases = public health threat. The National Academy just said: nah. Science still says climate change is dangerous & affects our health. 📚🔥 #ClimateFacts #PolicyMatters
National Academy of Sciences rebuffs Trump EPA's effort to undo regulations fighting climate change
The National Academy of Sciences says evidence supporting a 2009 U.S. government finding that climate change threatens public health is "beyond scientific dispute" and that evidence supporting that finding has only grown stronger.
